Chapter 684 Terrifying storm, natural disaster is also an opportunity [6000 words]

Now Huo Yutong has truly determined that this must be the underworld.

Only the underworld would be filled with so much negative power and negative emotions, which would unknowingly affect her spirit.

These negative and negative things all originate from the soul essence of the deceased. They are gradually erased after death and overflow throughout the underworld.

Huo Yutong hurriedly activated the spiritual filtering and soul protection functions on the Wuhun armor.

Although this will consume more soul power and mental power, it must be done.

In unknown territory, you must keep your mind clear and calm.

As a layer of icy blue halo spread from his brain and gradually downwards, Huo Yutong felt that the all-pervasive silent erosion originating from the world itself disappeared without a trace.

No wonder, this is a place where only gods can come.

In the middle stage of Shenyuan Realm, this is a realm that is almost impossible to reach on the Douluo Continent. It has already exceeded the normal limit of cultivation.

The third-level gods with lower cultivation levels only have this level of mental strength cultivation.

If there are no corresponding countermeasures, it may even be easily assimilated by the power here.

That would be all over.

Just when Huo Yutong confirmed that Qian Chaoguang was okay and was about to continue on the road.

Suddenly, the Eye of Destiny on her forehead suddenly felt a tingling sensation in the direction she was going, reminding her that the crisis was approaching.

Huo Yutong's expression changed slightly, and the martial soul armor that originally only extended half of the armor was instantly revealed, covering her entire body.

She quickly took off the metal cable connected to the trailer, pushed herself up into the sky with the help of her spiritual power, and looked into the distance.

Under the influence of the spiritual realm, the distant scenery is clear at a glance.

"That... what is that?" Snow Emperor, who shared the vision in the sea of ​​​​spirits, murmured.

As far as the horizon can reach, a high black wall like a tall building is pressing towards the location of the two of them.

Looking carefully, it seems to be some kind of semi-material substance formed by the gathering of clouds and mist.

Some are like the sandstorms that blow up in some northern cities in autumn.

However, the giant black air mass roaring in like a tsunami is much more ferocious than the sandstorm.

The black air mass that could not be reached was rolling violently, gathering a large amount of dead breath soil, making crazy and irregular movements, and constantly releasing ear-piercing roars.

Although there is no wind element here, this huge black air mass like a hurricane is stronger than any group-level wind-type forbidden spell.

Even though they were tens of thousands of meters away, Huo Yutong could already feel the strong airflow.

The purple grass on the ground has been blown down by the strong wind.

But their tough root system and tough fiber structure allow them to be firmly rooted in the dead soil and not be blown to pieces by the strong wind.

The moment this black storm came into contact with the spiritual realm, Huo Yutong seemed to suddenly think of something, and his originally serious eyes suddenly changed drastically.

The moment the two parties came into contact, the spiritual realm condensed in the middle stage of the Divine Origin Realm was shattered.

Didn't even resist for a second.

Huo Yutong directly withdrew his mental power, smashed it down from a height of a hundred meters, and landed hard on the ground.

When she landed, she didn't make any unnecessary movements. She lifted the cart and ran towards a small rock hill behind her.

Huo Yutong swore that she had never run so fast in her life.

If it were not for the restriction of the rules, any soul power would dissipate the moment it is directly released, and she would definitely light up all the nine-level thrusters on the martial soul armor.

In just a few seconds, Huo Yutong ran for several kilometers, exceeding the speed of sound several times.

An unsightly sliding shovel forcibly stopped in front of the black rock hill, and the long sword that had lost its elemental power suddenly appeared in Huo Yutong's hand.

As the soul power surges in the body, the complementary soul cores of yin and yang collide fiercely, supercharging the soul power in the body without reservation.

An extremely sharp ice attribute power rekindled the soul-forged sword.

The terrifying sword intent that was condensed to the extreme stabbed hard into the stone.

Emperor Sword·Bingji Wushuang!

Not only that, Huo Yutong's left hand was also filled with a strong icy blue color, causing the temperature here to drop sharply.

The power of the ultimate ice detonated violently in the rocks, exploding a large amount of smoke and dust.

Emperor's Palm·It's cold and snowless!

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The terrifying sound echoed throughout the wilderness at this moment.

Apart from the howling wind, there was only the sound of rocks being cut through and the dead soil cracking.

Huo Yutong no longer begrudges the consumption of soul power. The two strongest single-target attacks, the Imperial Sword and the Imperial Palm, were released in turn, striking hard at the bottom of the rocky mountain.

It is unknown what structure the rocks that make up this mountain are composed of.

It's obviously just rock, but it's harder than ordinary soul-forged alloy.

Even if Huo Yutong violently bombards with Super Douluo's cultivation, he can only make a small piece of rock fall off and explode each time.

"Xue Emperor, Bajiao, come out and help!" Huo Yutong roared in his heart, "Stop saving your soul power, just blast it with a level 8 cracking cannon!"

The soul power is already being output to the maximum without any reservation.

Even the Dark Gold Terror Claw, which had not been used for a long time, was forced to appear at this moment.

Huo Yutong held the sword in his left hand to release Bingji Wushuang. While using his dark gold terror claw to collide with the rocks, Huo Yutong blasted with Dahan Wuxue in his right hand.

In the perception of the spiritual realm, the high black wall symbolizing death is advancing rapidly at a terrifying speed.

That was the power of heaven and earth that Huo Yutong could not compete with.

As long as she is contaminated a little bit, even if she has a super Douluo level of cultivation, she will definitely fall here.

This was the first time that Star Anise Ice Grass and Snow Emperor heard Huo Yutong order them in such an urgent voice.

Without even bothering to ask what happened, the Snow Emperor immediately handed over the auxiliary control system of the Wuhun Armor to the Eight Aniseed Ice Grass.

She herself took out two level eight cracking cannons from the storage soul guidance device on the martial soul armor, and quickly filled the sealed milk bottles inside.

A slight buzzing sound unique to the core array sounded, and two red disintegration rays suddenly surged towards the place where Huo Yutong was attacking.

"Xue Emperor, hit both sides! Quick! Even if you hit me, it doesn't matter, quick, quick, quick!" Huo Yutong's tone changed a bit.

Earth and rocks splashed, and sword energy surged.

If the Emperor Sword and Dark Gold Terror Claw had intelligence, they might never have imagined that one day they would be used to dig rocks.

And the effect is still very poor.

About a minute later.

Finally, a miniature crypt big enough to accommodate two people appeared in front of them.

The cave shows a large turning arc, so that the deepest part is not directly connected to the outside world.

This is the result of the joint efforts of Huo Yutong, Snow Emperor, and Star Anise Ice Grass.

Without caring about anything else, Huo Yutong quickly dragged the unconscious Qian Chaoguang in first, then put away the trailer and picked up a huge black rock next to it.

When a large amount of dead breath soil was backfilled, he quickly rushed into it.

The huge black rock became a natural portal, blocking the entire entrance to the cave.

Huo Yutong still felt a little unsafe.

In the Eye of Destiny, a large amount of spiritual power spread out, completely sealing the boulder and the edge of the cave entrance.

When she finished all this, a terrifying black storm rolled over from above and enveloped the entire rocky hill.

Huo Yutong finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the rumbling wind outside like muffled thunder and the terrifying howling like ghosts.

The tense spirit and body also softened and relaxed at this moment.

Using soul skills in the underworld, the consumption of soul power is really terrifying.

In less than two minutes, the soul power that had been used sparingly for a long time in her body was almost exhausted, leaving only a shallow layer.

She took out an eighth-level high-energy compressed milk bottle and replaced the one that had been used up in her martial soul armor, thereby slowly restoring her soul power.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the Snow Emperor couldn't help but ask: "Xiaotong, what was that black storm like a sandstorm just now? You seem to know it."

"That is the wind of rest. My brother told me once when he was putting me to sleep a long time ago. But at that time, I only listened to it as a story. Before that, I never thought that this thing could actually It really exists.”

Huo Yutong's face showed the expression of surviving a disaster.

The visor of the martial soul armor partially melted away, revealing the forehead covered in cold sweat.

If it hadn't been for the reminder from the Eye of Destiny and her prompt response, it might have been really bad this time.

"The wind of rest? What is that?" Snow Emperor asked doubtfully.

Not only the Snow Emperor, but also the Star Anise Ice Grass, who always just slept in his spare time, came over, showing curiosity, and listened quietly.

Huo Yutong explained: "According to my brother, this is a natural phenomenon that will only erupt in a plane where the power of death breath is extremely strong and the space is unstable."

"Although the resting wind here is not called 'wind', it is not caused by the movement of airflow, but caused by the instability of space, so its destructive power is extremely terrifying."

"Even if it is as strong as a high-level undead creature, it must bury itself deeply into the soil of death before the wind of rest arrives, at least half a meter above the ground, otherwise the soul fire risks extinguishing."

"Only those who have condensed the souls of mourning, that is, monarch-level beings, can barely survive in the wind of rest. But they will also be weakened by this terrifying storm, and may be injured, or even lose their level or fall."

"So this is why I hurriedly asked you to help dig out this black rock. My brother and I are living people, and you are not undead. I am afraid that even if we are buried in the soil of death, we may not be able to completely isolate the wind of rest. Impact."

The Snow Emperor was shocked: "Even an existence of Yi Lao's level will be affected by the wind of rest? This should be regarded as a natural disaster, right?"

Huo Yutong shook his head: "On the contrary, the wind of rest is extremely deadly to humans. But to the undead creatures, this is not only not a natural disaster, but a blessing, a good fortune, and even a soul advancement. opportunity."

"My brother said this at the time - the wind of rest is the source of death creatures. It brings life to the corpses, skeletons and soul fragments everywhere, and breeds them into skeletons, lichs, zombies and undead."

"Under the influence of the wind of rest, the sleeping soul will gradually strengthen and grow. But when it brings life, it will also bring death."

"As an undead creature, if directly exposed to the wind of rest, the soul will slowly solidify, dry up, and die. Even the most powerful golden skeleton and the Lich King are no exception. The only difference is that they can last longer Even longer. Only a monarch-level existence that has condensed the soul of mourning can barely compete with it."

"The wind of rest is a gift from God and a punishment from God. It brings life and death. Listen quietly to the whistling of the wind of rest, it can bring peace to the souls of the dead."

At this point, Huo Yutong's voice paused.

After thinking seriously for a few seconds, she continued:

"Maybe what my brother said is not entirely right. The wind of rest can not only bring peace to the souls of the dead, but also the souls of the living. I feel unprecedented peace and relaxation, and the deterioration of the injuries on my brother's soul has also stopped."

Bajiao shook his body in agreement.

Snow Emperor also nodded and said: "Indeed, I also feel that my soul power has increased slightly, and the previous impatience has calmed down. I just don't know, how long will this wind of rest blow? Even if it can make the morning Guang’s injury is no longer getting worse, and staying here forever is not an option.”

Huo Yutong took out a mechanical watch from the storage soul guide and glanced at the time:

"It is now twelve o'clock in Douluo Continent. According to my biological clock, it should be twelve o'clock in the morning. Before this wind of rest ends, let's wait quietly. We need to measure the detailed outbreak time and duration.”

"Then before that, let's take a rest. Bajiao and I will take care of you first."

The Snow Emperor's soul appeared at this moment, and merged with the death breath soil beside it, with only half of his body exposed.

The Octagonal Black Ice Grass also bent the ice-blue horn in front of it in the sea of ​​consciousness, and said a faint "hmm".

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Sister Xue Di and Bajiao." Huo Yutong did not refuse and immediately entered the recovery state.

She needs a rest now.

Ever since her fight with Poseidon Douluo, her spirit had been tense.

Even though I was highly nervous when fusing the soul ring, it had been at least dozens of hours now.

So, a real break is indeed needed.

Soon, twelve hours flew by.

The whistling and strange noises were gone.

The wind of rest ceased.

Huo Yutong's eyes suddenly opened at this moment, and a hint of purple gold burst out.

Twelve hours later, she felt that her mental power had been completely stabilized after she had advanced to the middle stage of the Divine Origin Realm, and even her soul had grown stronger.

The blowing of the wind of rest was even better than her own retreat to consolidate her realm.

For the living and undead creatures below the realm of mourning, the wind of rest is indeed deadly.

But at the same time, this is also a great opportunity for passive improvement of mental power and soul.

If the wind of rest could blow every once in a while, the rate of deterioration of Qian Chaoguang's soul injuries would drop sharply.

Push away the black boulder and get up from the cave.

The first thing Huo Yutong did after coming out was to find a huge black rock and started cutting it with the Emperor Sword and the Dark Gold Terror Claw in turns.

We don’t know whether or when the wind of rest will blow next time.

To be on the safe side, she wanted to make a large, sealed sarcophagus out of this black rock that could withstand the erosion of the winds of rest.

Next time the wind of rest comes, all you have to do is put the sarcophagus into the pit of dead breath soil and then lie down in it.

This is much faster than digging rocks.

The wind of rest is filtered through the dead breath soil and black rocks, and is enough to become something that can benefit living people and ordinary souls.

If materials and time were not limited, the effect would be better if the black rock coffin was made into a double layer and filled with dead breath soil in the middle.

It will also be more convenient to use.

But unfortunately, without such a huge black rock, Huo Yutong had no choice but to give up and resort to the next best method.

Although lying in a sarcophagus and being buried in the ground seems a bit unlucky.

but.

There's not much I can do at this time.

Everything is practical.

Carrying the newly carved huge black coffin, Huo Yutong continued on the road in the direction where the wind of rest was blowing.

At her current level of cultivation, although she still needs to eat, under the influence of soul power, the time between two meals is much longer than that of ordinary people.

There are still a lot of fresh ingredients in the storage soul guide that Qian Chaoguang carries.

But in this extreme environment, Huo Yutong did not choose to eat these things that required more time and energy to cook.

As she was walking in a hurry, a dark black gelatinous rectangular block exuding the fragrance of medicine appeared in her hand.

The appearance is very similar to the cockroach protein block in "Snowpiercer".

With one bite, a warm current exploded in the body.

A sense of sufficient energy and satiety arises spontaneously.

Huo Yutong's expression twitched slightly, and she continued to eat the whole piece.

Of course, it wasn't made by cockroaches.

This is an emergency military ration developed by the Undying Empire, also known as super energy gel.

It is made from several kinds of natural materials and certain plant extracts. It tastes like a slightly tough yokan.

It can provide super high heat and energy, and help the soul master restore soul power and mental power.

The only drawback is probably...

This thing is deliberately made to taste terrible, and it is very unpalatable.

Even the producer Huo Yutong himself found it a bit difficult to eat.

Considering the Immortal Empire's knowledge of food, it's not difficult to make something delicious.

At first, this food was made very delicious under Huo Yutong's preparation, and it was once sought after by all the soul masters in the Immortal Empire.

However, it is precisely because this thing is made so delicious that it cannot have the emergency effect it should have.

This kind of super energy gel, which is convenient to eat, provides a lot of energy, and has auxiliary effects, became something in short supply at that time.

Often as soon as it is served, it is quickly eaten up because of its wonderful texture and taste.

High-level soul masters and soul mentors with relatively rich contribution points even began to exchange in large quantities to replace their daily three meals a day.

As a last resort, Qian Chaoguang had no choice but to make Huo Yutong change the formula and make the food taste unpalatable.

Otherwise, they would all be eaten before an emergency response could be made.

Huo Yutong walked on the empty and desolate purple wilderness while eating the super energy gel that tasted very unpleasant in his mouth.

Apart from the black rocky hills, the purple-black Death Breath soil, and the purple grass everywhere, there seems to be nothing else here.

There are no mountains, no rivers, and no other life.

The everlasting darkness shrouded the earth like a haze, and only Po Feng who relied on his mental power could see clearly the scenery one meter away.

She just kept walking forward in such a dull manner.

Suddenly, an extremely dangerous omen came again from the Eye of Destiny.

This time, Huo Yutong became familiar with it easily, far less flustered and short of breath than last time.

She and the Snow Emperor, who appeared outside the sea of ​​​​spirits, controlled an earth element splitting soul guide alone. They easily cut a large amount of death breath soil and the purple grass on it, and lifted it up with their mental power. .

In just ten seconds, a neat square deep pit had been dug out.

Huo Yutong calmly put away the trailer, threw the black sarcophagus in, lay down next to the unconscious Qian Chaoguang, and closed the lid of the coffin.

The Snow Emperor used his mental power to stuff the neatly cut large pieces of soil back tightly, and then passed through the layers of barriers and returned to Huo Yutong's sea of ​​consciousness.

After the two of them had done all this, about a minute later, the howling wind of rest blew through the place, letting out a demonic and infiltrating cry.

Huo Yutong looked at the mechanical watch in his hand.

The hands point to twelve o'clock again, exactly every second.

If nothing else goes wrong, the wind of rest will blow at 12 o'clock every morning and last until 12 noon the next day.

Although there is no sun emitting light and heat here, it always looks like it is shrouded in black mist.

But the wind of rest clearly separates the underworld into unique "day" and "night".

Twelve hours of "day" and twelve hours of "night".

Now Huo Yutong doesn't have to think about time allocation, he can just keep going.

Twelve hours later, the wind of rest stopped again.

The energetic Huo Yutong stood up from the coffin and once again embarked on an unknown journey.

I never thought that this trip would last a whole month.

Every twelve hours, the wind of rest would come as punctually as the sun rises and sets, forcing Huo Yutong to rest.

Including the time for descending and absorbing the soul rings, it has been more than a month since they descended into this place suspected of being in the underworld.

[Some brothers with great imagination have guessed the identity of the crazy woman, I won’t tell who it is, hehe]
