Chapter 336 Mysterious Blood Hole, White Worm
The big hole in front of Li Changxiao was about a hundred meters wide, and the inner wall was blood red. Countless strange diseases came out from the depths of the hole.
He was not in a hurry to go in. After staring at the big hole for a few seconds, he withdrew his gaze and focused his mind on the surrounding environment.
The Endless Forest shook violently for no apparent reason, the ground collapsed, and mountains collapsed. It was already full of strange things.
Near this bloody hole, there were fallen trees, crushed beasts, and the whole place was in a mess.
At this moment, the earthquake stopped for a while, and the rain of perception that Li Changxiao had just created also stopped. A huge blood hole appeared in this place within a radius of dozens of miles.
The strange disease that came from the big cave did not affect Li Changxiao. If someone else came here, they would probably have shown thousands of symptoms by now. The area near the blood cave is undoubtedly a life forbidden zone.
Li Changxiao leaned over and placed his palms on the ground, preparing to use the power of the earth seal.
At this moment, a violent vibration was heard from a distance, and a long milky white worm rushed out from the ground and killed Li Changxiao, the only living person around.
This white worm has no head or eyes, its entire body is snow-white and covered with short, fine hairs, but its body is huge and looks like a big well when viewed from the side.
The most difficult thing is that it carries a lot of strange diseases, which are simply a complex of various strange diseases. Even the strange diseases on its body are still undergoing unknown evolution all the time, which is an indescribable feeling. When the white worm attacks, a crack opens at the front end, revealing its mouthparts, and spits out a mouthful of green saliva, which is enough to corrode everything. There are also thousands of strange diseases mixed together, which are extremely lethal.
When this saliva was spit out, everything within a few miles would be immediately infected with countless strange diseases. Li Changxiao's eyes focused and he blew out a breath of fresh air to wrap the green saliva, then sealed it with an earth seal to prevent the strange disease from spreading.
Li Changxiao looked at the white worm, his mind racing. Could it be that this beast was the source of the strange disease in the Endless Forest?
He recalled his past knowledge and wanted to find the origin of this beast, but there was no record. It seemed that even to this day, there were still many unsolved mysteries in the Endless Forest that had never been revealed. This was Li Changxiao's second visit after his spiritual energy was exhausted, but he still felt like he was a newcomer.
It was the time of battle and Li Changxiao had no time to think. He blew the breeze into a sharp sword and shot it out suddenly. At the same time, he kicked the sword with his foot and his hand turned into a long dragon.
Fuhua Feng, Fuhua Sword Technique, Panlong Hand... all were used in a split second. Li Changxiao had many tricks, and the long white worm was hit repeatedly. Its body was scratched by the Qingping Sword, half of its body was burned by flames, and finally it was slapped by the giant dragon hand, causing blood to splatter everywhere. It was a horrible sight, and it actually died just like that.
It turned into green pus and polluted the earth.
Li Changxiao was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that this long white worm would be so weak. It had no scales on its body and its defense was just average. It didn't seem to be a species with strong combat power, but it just had a strange disease. He was ready to fight fiercely, or even run away if he couldn't win.
Unexpectedly, after a few moves, the opponent was already dead and turned into pus. Li Changxiao, despite the raging strange disease, explored the surroundings but did not gain much and returned to the edge of the blood cave again.
He drew out the Qingping sword and struck the bloody hole.
"Zheng——"
There was a sound of metal and stone colliding.
Li Changxiao showed a look of understanding. This was not a "blood cave", but just an ordinary mine cave.
The stone on the wall of the cave is a kind of stone called "blood crystal stone". It is red in color and emits a dark red glow. When gathered in one place, it looks like the wall of a blood cave.
Li Changxiao jumped into the cave and fell for dozens of seconds before he landed. The deeper he went, the more strange diseases he found. After landing, flames ignited on Li Changxiao's fingertips, illuminating the surroundings. At the same time, his eyes flashed with the color of seven stars, allowing him to see everything around him clearly.
In theory, blood crystal stone is an extremely rare mineral that can be sold at a high price in Fuyao World. It can be used as medicine, for making pills, and for refining equipment, but this kind of mineral is generally scattered everywhere.
This was the first time Li Changxiao had seen so many people gathered in one place, and he had never heard of it before.
As far as he could see, the surroundings were relatively clear. At the bottom of the big hole, there was a faint stench of decay. This smell was very similar to the smell he smelled when the white worm appeared.
As shown, Li Changxiao concluded that there must be a lot of white worms in this big cave. Every time Li Changxiao came to the Endless Forest, he would encounter all kinds of strange things.
“I never thought that this kind of terrain could be formed here.”
Li Changxiao walked a few steps and couldn't help but sigh. Apart from the rampant strange disease, the terrain of this blood cave was very special.
Li Changxiao could understand a little bit, knowing that it was special, but he didn't know how it was special. It also involved many secrets.
The bottom of the big hole was extended and was paved with blood spirit stones on all sides, which made him even doubt whether it was man-made. If it was formed by nature, it would be too incredible and require countless coincidences.
After exploring for about several meters inside the cave, Li Changxiao encountered another white worm, but this one was not as huge as the previous one, and its size was just the same as Li Changxiao.
Li Changxiao simply made a thunder seal and killed the insect, then continued to move forward.
There was a flickering bloody light in the cave, and there was an indescribable weird feeling.
After about an hour, Li Changxiao killed more than a hundred white worms. They were of different sizes, some big and some small. Li Changxiao gradually figured out what was going on.
These white worms don't seem to have any definite cultivation level. Their strength depends entirely on their body size. Even if they are huge, they are not that strong. Even to outsiders, the strange diseases they carry are extremely tricky.
Li Changxiao had never seen so many strange diseases on any strange beast. He concluded that these long white worms were directly or indirectly related to the strange diseases that had been raging in the Endless Forest since ancient times.
There was another flash of lightning.
A white worm over ten meters long died in his hands. This bloody passage was connected in all directions, and it looked like the white worm's nest.
"A strange beast that feeds on blood spirit stones?"
Li Changxiao pinched his chin and frowned. The Blood Spirit Stone could indeed be used as food for exotic beasts, but usually the beasts that could swallow the Blood Spirit Stone were those with sharp fangs. It was a bit strange that this white worm could feed on the Blood Spirit Stone even though it did not have obvious mouthparts.
"Could it be that this terrain was artificially arranged to breed these white worms with strange diseases?"
Li Changxiao proposed a hypothesis.
