Chapter 671: Sea of Consciousness Upgrade
Cui Lie came to the original center of the storm, and soon the scouts also arrived here. The Black Rock Giant Ape would not disappear out of thin air, but the sea water had just flooded this place, and now the tide had receded, leaving behind a thick layer of mud and sand, covering up the traces left by the Black Rock Giant Ape.
The scout searched the surroundings carefully and finally found a few large footprints that had not completely faded under the soft mud. The scout followed the direction of the footprints.
However, when the Black Rock Giant Ape was creating a giant storm, Rong Xianxian took advantage of the giant ape's inattention and rushed into the center of the storm from behind it. Her original intention was to use the Soul-Devouring Sword to attack the Black Rock Giant Ape while it was using its ultimate move and had no time to take care of other things. Maybe she could interrupt the damage brought to other people by the giant storm. Unfortunately, after she rushed in, she found that she was wrong.
The Black Rock Giant Ape was as big as a mountain, and its skin was thicker and harder than the outer armor of a heavy tank. Rong Xianxian walked closer and found that she could only reach the calf of the Black Rock Giant Ape. She circled around the Black Rock Giant Ape several times but couldn't find any place to cut.
If the first attack didn't work, she might not have a second chance. She had clearly seen bloodstains under the Black Rock Giant Ape, and it was obvious that it was injured, so she concluded that there must be wounds on the Black Rock Giant Ape's body. Just as she was carefully looking for wounds on the Black Rock Giant Ape's body, she saw that the monster suddenly shrank to a height of only four or five meters. After the Black Rock Giant Ape shrank, it keenly saw Rong Xianxian. This human who came to the door had abundant spiritual energy in his body, and was a good tonic.
The Black Rock Giant Ape reached out to grab Rong Xianxian without delay. Although its realm had dropped and its strength had been greatly reduced after it was seriously injured, it still had the power to crush Rong Xianxian.
After the Black Rock Giant Ape shrank in size, its speed became as fast as lightning. Rong Xianxian flew upwards on a flying skateboard. The Black Rock Giant Ape's hands seemed to be able to stretch infinitely as it chased her closely behind her. The eye of the storm was small and Rong Xianxian had nowhere to escape. In desperation, she jumped onto the shoulder of the Black Rock Giant Ape and hid in the foggy space.
When the Black Rock Giant Ape saw that Rong Xianxian had disappeared, although it was furious, there was nothing it could do. Its strength and realm were still declining. The weapons in the hands of the humans outside were strange, making it feel greatly threatened. It had to leave quickly.
After the Black Rock Giant Ape shrank in size, it became extremely agile. It ran all the way to the east, which was opposite to the direction of the military camp. Perhaps because its innate attribute was related to the wind, the Black Rock Giant Ape ran at lightning speed and covered more than a hundred kilometers in more than half an hour.
The Black Rock Giant Ape stopped outside a small safe zone. It sensed from a distance that there were a large number of humans living here, and these humans were very weak and posed no threat to it.
The Black Rock Giant Ape roared, and its body suddenly grew in size, returning to the size of a mountain. Hearing that the city ahead suddenly became noisy and the whole city was filled with an emotion called fear, the Black Rock Giant Ape rubbed his palms excitedly. It liked this kind of prey without suspense the most. Although these humans could not provide it with the spiritual energy needed for healing, they could help it nourish its qi and blood and restore its strength.
This small security zone is not an official security zone established based on the military region, but a gathering place for people who are unwilling to leave their homeland. This place is not far from the sea, and most of the residents in the city are fishermen. They rely on drying sea salt and fishing to obtain their living resources.
There are only a few thousand people here in total, and cultivators account for about one-tenth of the total population. There is also a cultivator who has just entered the Blood Refining Realm. Because there are a lot of cultivators, although the safe zone has been attacked by monsters several times, it has survived safely. However, today, a huge monster more than ten meters high suddenly appeared outside the city. When the monster walked, it seemed as if the earth was shaking. The shells fired from the city wall had no effect on the monster. The monster slapped the most solid bunker on the gate of the safe zone away with a casual slap.
The only Blood Refining Realm cultivator in the safe zone, who was also the leader of the safe zone, was slapped away by the monster as soon as he rushed forward. He vomited blood and told his men in a daze, "Run. Don't worry about me. Let everyone run separately." Let as many people as possible escape!
"Brother Tian, you have saved us so many times. If we ignore you and run away, are we still human beings?" The man who spoke helped the injured leader up and handed him to a burly man next to him. The two men exchanged glances, and the man carried the man on his back and ran away. The man who spoke, with a group of brothers, followed behind to cover their retreat.
The Black Rock Giant Ape moved very quickly. As the Black Rock Giant Ape took a step forward, its huge feet stepped over. Because he was running in a hurry, he didn't pay attention to the stones under his feet and fell to the ground. A huge shadow covered his head and he closed his eyes in despair. However, the Black Rock Giant Ape suddenly stopped, held his head with its two big hands, and howled to the sky.
"It, what happened to it?" The man who fell to the ground climbed up using his hands and feet, quickly caught up with the fleeing crowd in front and asked.
"Someone over there chopped the monster with a knife." Someone answered him, pointing in the direction of the monster.
Rong Xianxian entered the foggy space standing on the shoulder of the Black Rock Giant Ape, and therefore came here with the Black Rock Giant Ape. After a long period of fast running, when the Black Rock Giant Ape changed its body shape, the previously healed surface wounds on its body revealed differences from other parts of its body.
Rong Xianxian discovered that the fur near the left ribs of the Black Rock Giant Ape was coagulated into strands by blood. She found an irregular wound between the ribs. The lower edge of the ribs was the soft abdomen without bones.
Rong Xianxian found the right direction to strike, and when the Black Rock Giant Ape broke into the city and was ready to kill, she used all her strength to stab the Soul-Devouring Knife into the wound under the Black Rock Giant Ape's ribs. The spirit seed in the Soul-Devouring Knife flowed through the blood and invaded the Black Rock Giant Ape's sea of consciousness, devouring its soul. This led to the scene where the survivors just saw the Black Rock Giant Ape holding its head and howling to the sky.
The soul power of the Black Rock Giant Ape is very powerful. In the process of devouring the soul, the spirit seed fed back the refined pure soul power to Rong Xianxian. Rong Xianxian's soul power was originally pure and huge, lighting up the entire sea of consciousness. When she used the soul jade to practice before, her soul power overflowed and was automatically used to stabilize the sea of consciousness. At this time, a large amount of pure soul power poured into the sea of consciousness, and with a "bang", the scene in the sea of consciousness suddenly changed.
The sea of consciousness that was originally emitting white light was suddenly covered with a layer of light golden color. The center of the sea of consciousness was bright, while the surroundings were dim.
It is recorded in the "Soul-Yunzhen Sutra" that Ning Qingyun taught to Rong Xianxian that when the sea of consciousness is upgraded to gold, the soul is stable and the sea of consciousness will not be easily invaded.
