Chapter 286 Naiqiong Shenbing
When we reach this floor, the entire space has doubled several times, and is about the size of two or three basketball courts.
Rakshasa approached the three corpses to check the cause of death.
Because it was the Wang family who died on the ground, Ye Bai was not too anxious and took stock of the surrounding environment.
There are many oval pebbles piled here, which are the eggs of some kind of creatures, much larger than goose eggs. However, due to the long time, some pebbles have long shriveled and withered.
There are also black scriptures painted on the pebbles, which should be the words of the ghost tribe.
"How?"
"The body is parasitized by live eggs and cannot be saved." Rakshasa said expressionlessly.
"Live eggs? Hatched from eggs?"
"It should be."
The Rakshasa disemboweled one of the corpses and pulled out a handful of thin, transparent nematodes mixed with blood.
These thin worms gobble up blood like crazy, their bellies are swollen with blood, and they are still sucking blood even after their bodies are burst. They look very scary.
The Wang family members probably died from thin nematodes burrowing into their bodies and devouring their blood.
Rakshasa poured strong wine on the corpses of the three people, and the flames flickered. Sensing the danger, the transparent nematodes quickly burst out of the corpse's skin, but they did not escape the flames and were quickly reduced to ashes.
The body was half burned before the rest of the Wang family hurried over.
"My lord..."
The leader looked at the corpse in the flames, then came to the Rakshasa and lowered his head.
The leader's name was Wang Yuan, and he had a cold face and few words. Ye Bai had tried to chat with him before, but it didn't last more than three sentences.
"Why are you coming down now?" Rakshasa's voice was cold.
Wang Yuan came to Rakshasa and whispered a few words in his ear.
Rakshasa looked slightly angry, nodded, and did not pursue further.
"First burn all the egg shells, and then call the others down. We will camp on this level."
"There will be danger down there, so be careful."
"Yes."
During this trip to Kunlun Mountain, a total of fifty-three people from the Wang family came. Seventeen people were lost along the way, and now there are still thirty-three people left.
The space on the fourth floor was not too big, but there was a pile of junk and debris. After everyone came down, it suddenly became crowded.
Ye Bai noticed that the maid following Rakshasa was missing.
The demon tower has nine floors. With everyone in the Wang family working hard, Rakshasa and Ye Bai quickly reached the seventh floor of the demon tower.
This floor is covered with star-patterned ghost flags without words, in red, blue, white, and black colors. Among them, black ghost flags are the most numerous and blue are the least.
Rakshasa explained to Ye Bai that colors have special symbolic meanings in the Demon Kingdom. Red represents blood, blue represents the sky, white represents water, green represents mountains, and black represents abyss.
Among them, black ghost flags are the most numerous.
Ye Bai nodded. From the difference in color of these ghost flags, it can be seen that the belief in the Demon Kingdom is different from other religions.
They believe in black. The more black, the deeper the cave and the stronger the power.
Everyone arrived at the eighth floor of the Demon Building. The space here was close to the size of a football field, and it was a full ten meters away from the seventh floor.
It seems that every time you go to the next floor, the overall space of the demon building will expand a lot.
The Wang family fired a flare, and under the strong light, everyone was shocked.
It turned out that there were many figures around, and the Wang family immediately became alert, pointing their guns at these figures.
I saw hundreds of tall ancient male corpses, all sitting in a circle around them.
Because they have been frozen by glaciers all year round, these corpses are no different from living people, except that their faces are dark and their hair is covered with white frost.
Ye Bai was in the middle of the Wang family, standing with Rakshasa, and was protected fiercely.
Wang Yuan made a gesture, and the Wang family dispersed and walked slowly into the group of ancient corpses to check if there were any abnormalities.
The flares burned out in the sky, and the Wang family relied on the flashlights on their helmets for lighting.
Suddenly, a crisp sound echoed in the spacious space. The Wang family members paused, and the flashlight light shone on the place where the sound came from.
On a black-faced ancient corpse, a little ladybug emerged from the ice, seemingly sleeping for a thousand years.
This insect is completely transparent and silvery-white.
Seeing this ladybug, Ye Bai immediately thought of Hu Bayi and others in Jingjue Ancient City, who met the fire ladybug when they traveled to Kunlun Mountain.
The fire ladybug has phosphorus fire all over its body, and will be burned to death by ordinary people.
I don’t know if this silver ladybug is a close relative of the fire ladybug, or it may have some special ability.
Are the silver bugs the poor god ice?
Ye Bai has a lot of ideas. Although he has not watched the plot of Kunlun Temple, he has derived a lot of things based on the information he collected.
It didn't take long for Ye Bai's idea to be confirmed.
This silver ladybug swayed in the air for a few times before flying to the nearest Wang family member.
This family member was attracted by the color of the ladybug and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
"Stop! Do you want to die?" Wang Yuan, not far away, shouted in a low voice.
The Wang family members were shocked by the roar, and quickly retracted their hands and took a few steps back.
But the silver ladybug flapped its wings, paused for a moment, and quickly flew towards the family.
He quickly raised the butt of his gun and swatted at the silver insect. The moment it made contact, frost spread from the gun body.
As soon as this Wang family member showed a horrified expression, the shining frost spread all over his body and turned into a white ice sculpture.
His frozen body immediately fell to the ground and turned into countless ice dust.
A bit of icy cold light flew out from it and flew towards everyone.
The Wang family nearby looked horrified and quickly backed away.
Wang Yuan looked calm, aiming at the silver ladybug and about to shoot.
At this time, Ye Bai suddenly said: "If you don't want to die, don't shoot. There are a lot of bugs hidden in these ancient corpses. The sound of gunshots will wake them up, and none of you will be able to escape by then."
Wang Yuan glanced at Ye Bai and had no choice but to turn over and take out the water bottle and hit the silver insect hard.
"Pa!"
The silver insect fell to the ground, its wings fluttering slightly, like a firefly, glowing with a pale silver light.
The light goes out and the insects turn into ashes.
The crisis was resolved, and everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Rakshasa looked at Ye Bai, as if showing off: How are my men?
Ye Bai smiled and did not answer.
There were many silver ladybugs hidden on the ancient corpse. The Wang family did not dare to stay here any longer. They broke through the ice and prepared to go deep into the ninth layer.
Ye Bai learned from the system map that the ninth floor of this demon building was different from the first eight floors.
If the first eight floors are separate spaces, composed of ice cave wooden frame structures, then the ninth floor is inside the valley, like the foundation of a huge pyramid.
Sure enough, not long after, Wang Yuan led his men to open a hole in the weak spot of the eighth layer of ice. Under the hole was the deep and echoing interior of the mountain cavity.
A flare was fired, and the ground was covered with giant skeletons, making it extremely messy.
They are at least sixty or seventy meters above the ground.
There is a black stone tower in the middle of the ninth floor. The tower is three to four meters high and glows slightly.
