After the discussion was concluded, Liu Cheng carried Wei Suo on his back and everyone left the temporary shelter.
There were many stars in the sky, and night had fallen. However, the green phosph.o.r.escent trees outside the city seemed brighter and stranger.
Without any hesitation, the group left Guan Mountain City and headed towards the direction of True Nether City.
When he started to move, Wei Suo hesitated because he knew that the pills used to quickly recover true essence were almost exhausted. True essence was not enough to reach the Revolving Core realm like Shopkeeper Kong and the others. Dozens of spells could exhaust true essence from their bodies. Even if they killed some low-level demon beasts, they would still need pills to recover true essence. Moreover, the majority of them were not needed by Wei Suo at all. For low-level cultivators like Shopkeeper Kong, they were extremely suitable for low-level pills.
However, after a slight hesitation, Wei Suo still held back from saying anything.
The storage s.p.a.ce of his bracelet of holding was astonis.h.i.+ng. It was equivalent to ten high level storages, or two hundred ordinary storages. In addition to the bangle that he had obtained from the mysterious young man, he also had an ancient storage ring on him that was equal to several dozen storage bags. Thus, after getting the bangle from the mysterious young man in the Dragon Tomb, Wei Suo gave all of his belongings to Ji Ya, Nangong Yuqing, and the others.
Looking at the current situation, Shopkeeper Kong and Qian both looked pretty good. However, since he didn't know much about them, Wei Suo couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't be tempted by the many treasures found within his bangle. Therefore, Wei Suo decided that he would wait until his injuries had recovered to a certain extent, at least until he had the ability to protect himself. Then, he would take out some things from the bangle and give them.
The group of people cautiously made their way through the wasteland. On the way, they would occasionally see some strange trees. Shopkeeper Qian's Gold Spirit Bees were extremely useful. If any demonic beasts over the fifth rank entered their range, there would be numerous Gold Spirit Bees flying towards him to inform him.
These Golden Spirit Bees used the sound of fluttering wings to transmit information. This sound could travel tens of miles, but only the Golden Spirit Bees could hear it, not the cultivators.
Whichever direction a high level demon beast came from, which was about a thousand miles away, the Golden Spirit Bees, which had been hovering near Keeper Qian, would come flying over from that direction.
With the help of these Golden Spirit Bees, two days later, in the early morning, True Nether City appeared in the line of sight of Wei Suo and the others.
"Oh my G.o.d, the True Nether City is also completely destroyed!"
"Just how many cultivator cities have this wave of beasts destroyed …"
When he could clearly see the outline of True Nether City, the shopkeeper, who hadn't seen any surviving cultivators for days, couldn't help but wail. His mind had already become extremely fragile.
True Nether City was five times the size of Northern Spiritual City.
The entire True Nether City was built on top of an iron gray mountain range where not even a blade of gra.s.s grew. The surroundings of the iron gray mountain range was originally a hilly area filled with forest.
However, right now, it seemed as if all the hills surrounding the city had been burnt and then overturned. The city on the iron gray mountain range also looked like a ruin and from afar, it didn't look like there were any complete buildings. There were many places in the city that seemed to have been set ablaze before.
The entire surroundings of True Nether City was deathly silent. There were no signs of any activity of cultivators. Only a few demon beasts occasionally could be seen pa.s.sing through the sky surrounding True Nether City.
"I hope there aren't any high level demon beasts staying in this city. This way, we can find something useful." He ordered a white jade gourd-shaped magic treasure to continue flying towards True Nether City without stopping, but the wrinkles on his face seemed to have increased.
In fact, on the way here, he still couldn't find any traces of cultivators even though they were close to the city. He already knew in his heart that the city definitely no longer existed.
"Shopkeeper Qian, you guys take these items first." At this moment, Wei Suo, who had been sitting cross-legged beside Liu Cheng, stood up and pa.s.sed a few things to Shopkeeper Qian.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, you …."
Shopkeeper Qian, Shopkeeper Kong, and the rest were all concentrated on the distant Primordial City. At this moment, when they saw Wei Suo suddenly stand up, they were all slightly stunned. When they saw the few items in Wei Suo's hands, Shopkeeper Qian and the rest all stopped breathing.
In Wei Suo's hands, there were four Magic Treasures and a silk pouch that contained at least a hundred medicinal pellets.
The four magic treasures were all flas.h.i.+ng with brilliance, and it seemed that they were at least of the middle grade.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, how are your injuries?" After a long while, Shopkeeper Qian finally s.h.i.+fted his gaze away from the few items in Wei Suo's hands. He didn't immediately extend his hand to take the items from Wei Suo, and only asked this question first.
"For the time being, my body is able to move freely. Running and jumping shouldn't be a problem. "However, I am still unable to use my true essence fiercely. If I want to fight someone, I will need at least two to three days." Wei Suo smiled. Although True Nether City looked the same as Guan Shan City, it gave people a feeling as if the entire northern part of Profound Sky Continent had been completely destroyed by a beast tide. However, Wei Suo's mood had become much more relaxed now. In the past two days, his internal injuries had recovered quite a bit. As long as he didn't use too much energy to mobilize his true essence, display of some qi raising technique, and practice of Hidden Concealment Spell, he wouldn't need to spend too much of his true essence.
Moreover, he could already feel that some of the sealed s.p.a.ces in his body had started to open up again. Maybe one day, all of them would open up due to the Hidden Dragon Spitting Pearl Technique.
In other words, within this period of time, it was very likely that Wei Suo would be able to recover to the fourth level of the Aurous Core stage!
Although he estimated that it would take at least another two days before his internal injuries recovered to the point where he could use large amounts of true essence, Wei Suo could already feel that his Heart Devouring Bug was in the wasteland behind True Underworld City!
With regards to his Heart Devouring Bug actually running tens of thousands of miles away in just a few days, Wei Suo was also speechless. However, Wei Suo could already feel that at this point, he could already use his mind to control the heart devouring bug. At this moment, the heart devouring bug was already rus.h.i.+ng towards him.
He reckoned that not long after he arrived at True Nether City, his Heart Devouring Bug would arrive.
Although this Heart Devouring Bug might not be able to contend with demon beasts that were at least rank 8, but if it was used as a sneak attack, even the Ancient Desolation giant pincer had died in its hands. With it by his side, as long as there weren't any particularly powerful demon beasts, he would be able to protect himself. He had even decided that even if it was the same situation as Guan Shan City, he would hide in the city for two to three days. After two to three days, he would be able to recover his sacred art and lose a lot of scruples.
"As long as it's fine." In the eyes of Shopkeeper Qian and the others, Wei Suo was only a cultivator at the Heavenly Axis Realm. When he heard what Wei Suo said, he looked at him and said, "If I'm not wrong, these magic treasures are all treasures of the middle tier or higher spirit level. These things are too precious, how could we have the face to take treasures like you?"
"Right now, we don't know anything about the situation outside. If we fall, what's the use of keeping this treasure on us?" Fellow Daoists, you have saved my life. Wei Suo directly stuffed the four magic treasures and a small bag of pills into the money manager's hands.
"Alright, then I won't be disrespectful." Seeing this, Shopkeeper Qian did not refuse anymore. The four of them shared out a magic treasure and after thanking Wei Yan, Shopkeeper Qian looked at the bag of pills Wei asked for and opened it. He was slightly surprised and asked, "Fellow Ji, what kind of pill is this?"
"This is a True Replenis.h.i.+ng Pill, its effects are similar to a Energy Replenis.h.i.+ng Pill." Wei Suo didn't waste any time as he said, "I still have some of these Zhen Yuan recovery pills with me, you can take them."
"Many thanks, Fellow Daoist!" Hearing Wei Suo's words, Shopkeeper Qian, Kong, and the others all had expressions of surprise and joy on their faces. They did not have many such pills left. To them, Wei Suo's bag of pills was an extremely urgent matter.
Not long after, Shopkeeper Qian's white jade gourd brought Wei Suo and the others close to True Underworld City.
The entire city still looked extremely huge. Compared to the ruins of this huge city, Wei Suo and the rest were as small as bugs.
Faced with such a huge and seemingly endless, lifeless ruins, Wei Suo and the others had an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
Normally, there were at least a hundred thousand cultivators entering and leaving such a large city, but now, there were no figures to be seen. It was as if they were the only ones left in this world.
"There shouldn't be any high level beasts in the city."
Shopkeeper Qian's Golden Spirit Bee did not find any high level demonic beasts staying in the city. After putting away the flying magic treasure, the group carefully walked through the ruins and entered the city, which was like a huge burial ground.
In the vicinity of True Nether City, the three types of trees were rarely seen. However, within the walls of True Nether City, there were quite a few of these three types of trees.
"How come there are no corpses of demon beasts?"
Many of the shops in True Nether City were located at the north side of the city, so Wei Suo, Shopkeeper Qian, and the others were the first ones to head towards the north. However, they were only able to traverse several hundred meters through the ruins.
Because in their line of sight, although there were fragments of a cultivator's robe, broken bones, and even broken pieces of magical equipment everywhere, other than some broken pieces of a demon beast's carapace, there was not even a complete corpse of a demon beast. It was as if all of the demon beasts in True Nether City had been cleaned up by someone.
"The situation doesn't seem right. We'll leave after a while." After a flash of light in his eyes, Wei Suo stopped. This was because he could feel that his Heart Devouring Bug had already entered True Nether City from the rear. It should arrive at his side in less than an incense's time. In this somewhat strange situation, Wei Suo naturally wanted to wait for the Heart Devouring Bug to come to his side before speaking again.
"Wait a minute?" Hearing Wei Suo's words, the confused Shopkeeper Qian and the rest were stunned.
"Eh?" But at the same time, Wei Suo's brows immediately twitched as a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Fellow Daoist Ji, what is it?" Manager Kong immediately noticed the abnormality of Wei Suo and asked nervously.
"Cultivators …." And there's more than one of them. " Wei Suo's eyes flashed as he spoke.
