Chapter 126 The Way to Survival (2)
“Then what should we do now?” Liu Ke’er asked, her eyes filled with confusion.
“Wait!” “I have a premonition that this time’s situation is not accidental. It will happen again in the future,” Li Qing said succinctly.
Liu Ke’er nodded in agreement, and the two waited quietly on the spot.
The flames flickered, illuminating the darkness within a few meters. It looked extremely lonely and desolate, with a trace of gloom and eerie.
Not long after, Li Qing’s eyes suddenly lit up and he whispered, “Coming!”
Sure enough, another purple-gold monster walked out from the darkness and was exposed to the faint light of the fire.
Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were stunned to discover that this purple-gold monster was completely different from the one in front of them! There was practically no similarity except for the purple-gold skin on his body.
This monster had two legs, four arms, and two heads. It looked more regular than the one in front of it, but it also didn’t have eyes, ears, or other organs.
Actually, both of them were very ugly, but this one didn’t look that ugly.
As in the previous situation, things happened again. The purple-gold monster wandered around for a while, then rushed in and was easily cut in half by Li Qing.
Too weak to pose any threat.
This Violet Gold Monster seemed to be a bit stronger. It was roughly at the seventh or eighth level of the Houtian realm, but it was still not worth mentioning in front of Li Qing.
It also lacked intelligence, was extremely stupid, and its movements were dull. It was much more ignorant than the animals in the outside world. Animals in the outside world would at least seek benefits and avoid harm, avoiding danger, and the purple-gold monsters here did not seem to have such instincts at all.
Looking at the Purple Gold Monster’s corpse on the ground, Liu Ke’er said worriedly, “It seems that there are more than one of these Purple Gold Monsters. Although they are completely different in shape, their essence should be the same.”
“That’s right!” Li Qing nodded and squatted down to carefully examine his body. “Although I don’t know why the difference in body shape is so great, I think it should be the same type of monster. They are like things made of the same material, but due to the mistakes of creation, their appearances are different.”
“They’re all so ugly. The difference in appearance doesn’t matter anymore.” Liu Ke’er smiled and said, “Looks like it’s a defective product of the Creator’s failure.”
Li Qing nodded and carefully examined the corpses of the two monsters. Suddenly, he was surprised and said, “Have you noticed that the corpses of the purple-gold monster in front of you seem to have undergone a slight change?”
“Is there? I can’t see the difference at all.” Liu Ke’er carefully sized it up and shook her head.
“Perhaps it’s an illusion.” In the blink of an eye, Li Qing couldn’t see any changes. He couldn’t be sure in his heart, but he always felt that something was wrong.
“Then is this fire going to extinguish it?” Liu Ke’er asked.
“Not for the time being. These purple-gold monsters are very weak and can’t pose any threat. Let’s first attract more of these monsters to study and see if we can draw any conclusions.” Li Qing said thoughtfully.
What was certain was that these purple-gold monsters were attracted by the flames. However, because their location was very far away, it was impossible for them to pass by for a while. However, if time passed, the number of them would probably increase by a large margin.
Next, the two of them waited for the purple-gold monster to fall into the trap.
Sure enough, not long after, another monster approached. This time, there were two purple-gold monsters!
Just as he had guessed, the figures of the two monsters were completely different. One of them looked like a tentacle monster, and the other was crawling on the ground. It was extremely disgusting.
The same thing was that they had purple and gold stripes crisscrossing their bodies.
Their auras were also different in strength, but they were all within the Houtian realm, so there was no danger.
Very quickly, Li Qing killed them with ease.
He placed the monsters together and carefully studied them to see if he could come up with any conclusions.
After a while, he raised his head to look at the first purple-gold monster. A flash of light flashed in his mind, and he understood. He said in a voice, “I understand, I know where this thing has changed!”
Liu Ke’er hurriedly asked, “Oh? What’s the change?”
Li Qing said, “Take a closer look. Did you notice that the corpse of this purple-gold monster has become smaller?”
Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but be stunned and said uncertainly, “I don’t have any impression …”
Li Qing took a torch and came to the top of the first purple-gold monster’s corpse, illuminating it completely. He was even more certain in his heart, saying, “That’s right, the corpse has indeed shrunk. How could it be like this? Why did the corpse automatically shrink? Could it have evaporated?”
Suddenly, he heard Liu Ke’er shouting from behind, “Li Qing, I see a purple-gold gas on this corpse!”
Li Qing followed Liu Ke’er’s gaze. Sure enough, there was a faint layer of purple-gold gas above this corpse. It was very difficult to discover it. If he hadn’t lit up this place with a torch, he probably wouldn’t have noticed it.
Li Qing’s mind flashed like lightning, and he instantly understood. He said with a serious expression, “I know how these monsters came about.”
“How did you get here?”
Li Qing said, “There’s no hurry to say it. Let’s wait for a while to verify the conjecture in our hearts. I predict that if nothing unexpected happens, all of these corpses will evaporate and turn into purple-gold gas. If this prediction is correct, then it proves that my conjecture is correct.”
“Alright then.” Liu Ke’er nodded.
Next, they began to wait for a long time. During this period of time, they were attacked by several purple-gold monsters one after another, but they were easily dealt with.
In this deathly silent space, there was darkness. Waiting was very boring. If there was only one person, then it was hard to imagine how desperate and lonely this would be.
Fortunately, they were together, not only did they not feel bored, but they were also very happy, especially cherishing this peaceful time.
They didn’t know when the crisis would descend. Perhaps in the next moment, the Heavenly Devil Ape would appear and kill them.
Therefore, in such a crisis environment, they naturally wouldn’t waste any time and get tired of each other.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the corpses of these monsters finally underwent a conspicuous change. As expected, they were slowly evaporating. Their bodies became smaller and smaller. In the end, they disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a pool of black liquid and residues on the ground.
They all turned into purple and gold colored gases, floating in the sky, hazy. Under the illumination of the fire, it emitted a faint light, sparks, and mysteries.
“Sure enough, it’s as you guessed. Why exactly is this?” Liu Ke’er was very curious.
Li Qing sighed and said, “This purple and gold gas also has a lot of origins.” Did you know that this purple gas was the demonic energy emitted from the Demon Ancestor’s body? This golden gas was the demonic aura emitted from the Heavenly Devil Ape. “Demon Qi and demon Qi merged together and mixed with some other mysterious substances. After thousands of years of brewing, some wondrous changes occurred, and finally, the purple-gold monsters were formed.”
Liu Ke’er was dumbfounded and said in disbelief, “How is this possible? Just the demonic energy emitted from the Demon Ancestor and the Heavenspan Demon Ape can create these monsters. Isn’t this too exaggerated? It’s simply a method of creation.”
