Wu Er rushed over to Xiao Mingmu's side and also saw the strange thing.
"Senior Brother, I've found this thing, but it doesn't seem like a good thing."
Xiao Ming pointed to something on the side.
That strange thing was indeed strange. It looked like just an oval stone about ten feet tall, but it was constantly emitting a demonic aura.
Wu Er circled the stone-like object but found nothing.
Grayish-brown, oval-shaped, with a very hard outer edge...
Judging from its appearance, it is a stone.
Apart from being larger, it's indistinguishable from an ordinary stone in appearance.
"Judging from its appearance, it really does look like just a rock..." After observing it for a while, Wu Er came to this conclusion.
But this thing is definitely not ordinary. Judging from the demonic aura it emits at all times, it is definitely not an ordinary thing.
I don't know if this thing is good or bad. Although it doesn't seem harmful now, it might have some harmful effects.
Wu Er shifted his gaze from the strange object and turned to Xiao Mingmu beside him, asking, "Did you tell the others about this?"
Xiao Mingmu shook his head and said, "Not yet."
"It's best not to tell." Wu Er looked at the strange stone again and said, "It exudes a demonic aura and doesn't seem like anything good."
After saying this, Wu Er went up and pushed the strange rock, and the push caused something even stranger to happen.
Although this thing is not small, it is not outrageously large either.
Even with Wu Er's strength at the Nascent Soul stage, he couldn't push it, which is a big problem!
"This is definitely not an ordinary thing!"
Wu Er said this again.
Seeing his senior brother's surprise twice, Xiao Ming cautiously asked, "Then... senior brother, what should we do with this?"
"As for how to handle it..." Wu Er stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
Since this thing can't be moved, it naturally can't be taken away either. I guess such a strange object can't be put into a storage bag, so it can only be left in place.
But leaving it in the same place just like that feels a bit inappropriate.
This thing constantly releases demonic energy into its surroundings. While demonic energy is highly beneficial to demons, it is a deadly poison to humans, especially mortals.
After thinking it over, Wu Er said, "We should at least deal with it. I'll see if we can smash this strange thing. If not, then we'll notify those major sects and have them send people to handle it."
If we can deal with this thing that exudes such demonic energy now, then we should. We can't let it affect mortals.
That's what Wu Er thought.
Because this thing is quite heavy, Wu Er deduced that it is also quite hard, so he took out the Wujian Sword again.
This Wujian Sword is incredibly sharp. After Wu Er's daily refining, it has been cleansed of its evil aura and has become a true divine weapon.
"Phew~"
He took a deep breath and then swung his sword at the strange thing.
"Ding~"
The sound of metal clashing echoed and dispersed in all directions, its lingering resonance lasting a long time.
Wu Er felt a slight numbness in his arm.
Just as he had expected, this thing was incredibly hard; even his sword strike couldn't cleave it open.
However, it wasn't completely without leaving a trace; the sword strike just now left a mark on the thing, and also knocked off some stone fragments.
Wu Er moved his arms a few times to get rid of the numbness, and then looked at the mark he had just made.
"It's really tough. I used 80% of my strength to make this small crack."
As he spoke, Wu Er stepped forward, raised his sword with one hand, and used the other to touch the mark.
"Hmm?" After stroking it a few times, Wu Er realized something was wrong.
Because he discovered through these marks that the thing seemed to be hollow!
In other words, the outer ring is just a layer similar to an eggshell.
This piqued Wu Er's interest, and he lowered himself slightly, wanting to examine the marks he had made to see what was inside the object.
Seeing Wu Er's actions, Xiao Mingmu asked, "Senior Brother, what's wrong?"
Wu Er looked inside the thing and said, "This thing is empty. Let me see what's inside."
"Did you see anything?" Xiao Mingmu asked.
Wu Er stopped looking inside and straightened up, saying, "The gap is too small; we can't see anything."
Then Wu Er waved his hand, signaling Xiao Mingmu to step back a little, and then raised the Wujian Sword again.
"Ping pong~ Ding dong~"
Wu Er hacked at the strange, stone-like thing relentlessly, the sound of each strike echoing loudly, for each strike required considerable force.
Finally, with persistent tapping, the small crack gradually widened.
After a lot of rubble was piled up on the ground, Wu Er knocked out a small gap.
"It's exhausting!" Wu Er said.
Looking through the gap that had been painstakingly created, you could see that there was indeed something inside.
It looks like a living creature, and it's an insect.
You can see the delicate antennae and the dense cilia on them.
Unfortunately, because the opening was so small, it was impossible to tell what kind of insect was inside.
"This...could it be the egg of some monster?" Wu Er asked after examining it.
After examining it, Xiao Mingmu said, "But... that demon's egg is so large, and it can also emit such a strong demonic aura..."
It was encased in a shell, and inside was a living creature, looking like the egg of some kind of demon.
But looking at the whole world, how could that demon's egg be so large and so hard?
So even if you manage to crack it open, you still don't know exactly what it is.
But just as they were wondering what this thing was, a strange thing happened.
A large amount of demonic energy burst out from what looked like an egg, followed by a loud cry.
The cry was so sharp that it hurt Wu Er's ears.
Then, the egg-like thing began to shake, and many cracks appeared on it, as if something was about to hatch.
At that moment, Wu Er felt a little regretful, thinking that it was because he had knocked on this thing that it released such a thing.
"Who dares to disturb my healing?"
A voice came from the egg. It was impossible to tell if the voice was male or female; it sounded like a mixed voice and was ethereal.
Even so, it still doesn't sound very good.
"Boom!" The outer shell of that thing shattered completely, and a living creature emerged from it.
The creature had a pair of thin, transparent wings, a slender body, and two tentacles on its head.
Wu Er looked up and saw a huge silver butterfly.
A large butterfly, as tall as two people, was standing in front of him, fluttering its wings.
Although the butterfly was very beautiful, Wu Er couldn't help but feel fear.
Because the scent emitted by this butterfly is far superior to that of Wu Er!
This means that the thing in front of us is at least at the Dao Integration level.
In other words, this is a true demon king!
