Chapter 3751: Meeting

The irritable little elf Diagu found the area where the Silver Queen's Zerg nest was located. This was undoubtedly good news. Su Xiao looked at the map drawn by the irritable little elf; he really didn't know before that this world had such an area.

Except for the central land where the Shelter City was located, the Eternal Light World could be divided into several major areas. The Wet Salt Zone on the west side had a vast range. Although there were not many enemies in this area, once encountered, they were basically strong enemies, mostly immortal-characteristic Abyss-nourished creatures.

Although Su Xiao could deal with these immortal-characteristic Abyss-nourished creatures with the Blade Demon Spirit of Zhan Long Shan and could use this to increase the Demon Spirit intensity, he would not provoke these nourished creatures unless it was a last resort. Some Abyss-nourished creatures had abilities that were too troublesome.

For example, there was an Abyss-nourished creature called Endless Hatred. When it had the immortal characteristic, no matter how severely it was damaged, there would be no danger. But once it could be truly killed, this guy would activate its strongest ability, Hatred, and perish with the enemy at the level of existence.

At first, the person who killed Endless Hatred wouldn't notice, but when they saw relatives and friends, they would find that these previously close people had all forgotten who they were. No, this was not a simple forgetting, but the past related to them no longer existed. It was as if this person had never existed before.

The reason this winner could still exist was that they still remembered themselves. But when everyone, including the world, forgot who they were, no one could always remember themselves. Even if they forgot who they were for a moment, this winner would dissipate.

This was the danger of clashing with world-destroying existences and Abyss-nourished creatures. For example, mental pressure or fear from the soul, this was only considered the most basic risk. If one was not careful, such as being eroded by the Abyss, or touching terrible things like Scarlet or Eternal Darkness, then what one faced was likely a painful death.

These sources of disaster were not something that could be dealt with just by having courage, but required professionals in this regard: Law-Extinguishing Shadows, Moon Wolves, Abyss Watchers, and Wandering Hunters were all professionals in this regard. It was just that these few factions had declined.

Besides the Wet Salt Zone in the west, Su Xiao had already experienced the Eroding Rain Land in the east. Although he hadn't gone deep into the core area of the Eroding Rain Land, the number of strange demons there was beyond imagination.

The Sand Sea in the north, the initial location where Su Xiao arrived in this world, was the outskirts of the Sand Sea. The Purgatory Nightmare in the deepest part there was not something the Scarlet Castle could compare to in terms of danger.

Besides these four major areas, there was actually a special area in the Eternal Light World. This area was the most vast and the most deceptive. Coming here, one would be surprised to feel as if they had left the Eternal Light World.

This most vast Overgrown Land not only had no daylight shining down, but it was also a scene of lush vegetation. Even, one could find sweet fruits to eat and drink clean river water everywhere.

This made people wonder, why did the residents of Black Iron City choose to live underground instead of going to that vast Overgrown Land? The answer was that all world-destroying existences of the group type were all in the Overgrown Land. These groups had their own territories. The Silver Queen, who was a disaster in the outside world, only occupied a fairly large territory here after coming here. Star Crabs, Corrupt Insects, and Kin were all located in this area.

Not only that, a few months ago, a creature that could be called a madman among world-destroying creatures came to the Overgrown Land: World-Eater!

One had to know that after summoning the World-Eater back then, it wasn't Su Xiao who exiled this group, but the notarization of the Void Tree was triggered. It was the Void Tree that exiled the World-Eater to the Eternal Light World. One could imagine the terrifying degree of this thing.

Although the World-Eater didn't come from a Transcendence/Native World or the Void, the reason it was silent in its original world was not because it was defeated, but because it ate everything in that world. Plus, there was the combat power ceiling notarized by the Void Tree, which made the World-Eater unable to break through to the degree of piercing the world barrier. In the end, it was because there were no objects to swallow, and it gradually became silent many years later.

Being exiled to the Eternal Light World was danger and imprisonment for other world-destroying groups, but for the World-Eater, this gave it a higher ceiling.

Su Xiao looked at the map of the Eternal Light World and further understood the situation of this world. The central land, the Wet Salt Zone, and the Eroding Rain Land were all areas where individuals were powerful. Therefore, in these three areas, there could be gathering places for intelligent beings, such as the hidden small towns in the Wet Salt Zone, the Black Iron City underground in the Eroding Rain Land, and the scavenger tribes in the central land.

And the Sand Sea and the Overgrown Land, these two areas were relatively terrifying. One side was full of groups that swallowed soul power, and the other side was groups that swallowed life force and matter.

The reason why there was no daylight shining down in the Overgrown Land, which he was about to go to, was that the plants here could absorb extreme natural elements, and after absorbing extreme natural elements, they would perform elemental reactions similar to photosynthesis, thereby releasing a large amount of plant life force.

These plant life forces nourished the earth and water sources. When water vapor drifted to the sky, it formed clouds. These clouds rich in plant life force generated a transparent film in the high altitude. After daylight shone through this film, it turned into natural light very close to sunlight.

In the myriad worlds, although strong people rarely appeared among vegetation, sometimes they were the powerful ones hidden. For example, the vegetation in the Overgrown Land actually fit the environment by relying on its own characteristics.

In the Overgrown Land, no matter how fierce the group was, they would not swallow a large amount of plants. That would become the enemy of all world-destroying groups in this area. Among them, the World-Eater was an exception. This guy... had evolved to the point of swallowing even extreme natural elements.

For some reason, Su Xiao suddenly had a feeling that besides the four giants of the Lightless Temple, the World-Eater was also an equally terrifying enemy.

The only way to deal with the World-Eater was to summon Jila, develop the Zerg, and only by exploding the army of sufficiently powerful Flame Dragon legions, with the all-encompassing Burning World Dragon Flame, could one possibly deal with the World-Eater.

Before setting off for the Overgrown Land, Su Xiao had one more thing to do. He took out Zhan Long Shan from its sheath, and then took out the 【Law-Extinguishing Blade (Fake)】. The reason for forging this blade at the beginning was to prepare to lead his bounty in the Hunter Guild in a fake-death way. However, when forging this blade, various resources were piled up too fiercely, totaling:

【Eternal Scepter】 + 【Ultra-high purity Abyss Power (large amount)】 + 【1200 ounces of Space-Time Power】 + 【God-Teaching Badge】 + 【World Ring (World-level item)】 + 【Will of the Betrayer (World-level item)】 + 【Abyss Soul Stone x3】.

Originally, Su Xiao just wanted to use the 【Eternal Scepter】 as a material and entrust the Dwarf King to simply forge a fake Law-Extinguishing Blade. But who knew that the more the Dwarf King forged, the smoother it went, and he gradually added some Space-Time Power. By the time it was forged halfway, 1200 ounces had been added one after another.

Upon learning of this, Su Xiao took out so many resources one after another, which was how he forged the fake Law-Extinguishing Blade containing a lot of Demon Spirit energy.

Su Xiao released the Blade Demon Spirit and let it cling to the fake Law-Extinguishing Blade. A few seconds later, cracks gradually appeared on the fake Law-Extinguishing Blade, and it finally shattered. Black-blue Demon Spirit energy surged out, all of which was shrouded and absorbed by the Blade Demon Spirit.

If Su Xiao activated the Devouring Core at this moment, he could snatch half of the Demon Spirit energy, and after filtering and purifying it with the Devouring Core, absorb it, thereby permanently increasing his own "all potential upper limit tiers." Last time, triggering the Demon Shadow Constitution effect allowed his "all potential upper limit tiers +8."

Although he couldn't trigger the Demon Shadow Constitution again, Su Xiao had an Lv. EX-level auxiliary Devouring Core. In principle, the effect of the Demon Shadow Constitution was to filter + purify Demon Spirit energy and turn it into gain energy that could be absorbed by the body. The Devouring Core could not only do this but could do it better.

However, Su Xiao didn't divide this Demon Spirit energy but let the Blade Demon Spirit absorb it all. Only when the Blade Demon Spirit's intensity was higher could it swallow more powerful immortal-characteristic Abyss-nourished creatures.

When the Blade Demon Spirit swallowed Abyss-nourished creatures, it would convert the source power of the Abyss-nourished creatures into Demon Spirit energy. At that time, dividing half of the Demon Spirit energy could both stably increase the "all potential upper limit tiers" and control the intensity limit of the Blade Demon Spirit to avoid the Blade Demon Spirit from losing control.

After Su Xiao was promoted to a supreme powerhouse, his Blade Demon Spirit also improved. It wasn't Demon Spirit intensity, but more like unlocking the limit. However, the degree at the moment was by no means the highest limit that the Demon Spirit could unlock.

Also because of the unlocking of this limit, the Blade Demon Spirit's efficiency in swallowing Demon Spirit energy was dozens of times, or even stronger, than before. It only took a few minutes to swallow the Demon Spirit energy inside the fake Law-Extinguishing Blade.

Looking at the Demon Spirit composed of black-blue smoke, for some reason, after this swallowing ended, Su Xiao suddenly felt that the Blade Demon Spirit was a bit different. Specifically where it was different, it was difficult to detect.

Checking the attributes of Zhan Long Shan, Su Xiao found that the Blade Demon Spirit's intensity had soared from the previous 70 points to 190 points, still within the safe range. As long as the Demon Spirit intensity was below 300 points, he could suppress it.

Putting away the Demon Spirit, Su Xiao activated the Watcher Ring and left the Gray Sanctuary with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Bahar, and the irritable little elf Diagu. The unique smell of the Wet Salt Zone diffused, although not unpleasant, it made people feel uneasy subconsciously.

Taking out the map and checking the orientation of Station 8, Su Xiao rushed to the underground station. As for Zuiyas, Wood, and the Dark Eater, they were all still underground in the Scarlet Castle.

Checking the squad channel, Su Xiao saw the invitation sent by Zuiyas and Wood. Plus, Caesar had already gone there. One didn't need to think to know that there must be some good goods in that dark underground labyrinth, but it was equally dangerous.

Su Xiao was not prepared to go. The more precipitated glaze Zuiyas and Wood got there, the greater Su Xiao's gain. The price for him to exchange for "Primordial Fragments" in the Abyss Shop with precipitated glaze was 60% off. Being able to do this was because he held four Original Sin items, bore this risk, and accounted for 20% of the profit in this transaction, which was not high.

That is to say, Zuiyas and Wood handed the obtained precipitated glaze to Su Xiao, and Su Xiao helped them exchange for "Primordial Fragments" at 80% of the original price of 3820 precipitated glaze, the current price of 3056 precipitated glaze. One "Primordial Fragment" saved 764 precipitated glaze.

This transaction, for every "Primordial Fragment," Su Xiao also earned 764 precipitated glaze from it, which could be said to be a win-win. But if it weren't for the fact that both "good teammates" were in urgent need of "Primordial Fragments," Su Xiao wouldn't help them exchange. His inventory of "Primordial Fragments" in the Abyss Shop was???, which was not infinite, but his Void Tree credibility was too low to see.

Su Xiao's original idea was to help Zuiyas pay 100 ounces of Space-Time Power and teach the other party how to use a temporary Void Tree brand to open the Abyss Shop. Zuiyas was quite happy at first, but when he heard that Su Xiao was prepared to let him hold the "Book of Original Sin" to try to obtain the 60% off permission, the smile on Zuiyas's face froze.

Under the repeated insistence of Zuiyas and Wood, they insisted that Su Xiao earn this handling fee of 764 precipitated glaze for every "Primordial Fragment." In fact, as "good teammates," Su Xiao originally wanted to let them experience the fun of holding the "Book of Original Sin" and let the two try the feeling of holding this "Book of Original Sin." Unfortunately, his good intentions were rejected, and the two "good teammates" firmly refused to try.

When Su Xiao arrived at the tunnel entrance of Underground Station 8, the sky in the Wet Salt Zone was already pitch black. Unlike other places where it was always daylight, the Wet Salt Zone had night, but this night was different from the night in the ordinary sense; it was rich dark energy gathered in the sky.

When night fell on the Wet Salt Zone, it would reveal its true appearance. Stopping at the tunnel entrance, Su Xiao looked into the distance. A roar came, and then a flying creature with a body size of ten thousand meters, carrying the terrifying whistling sound of energy, swept across the sky. Wherever it passed, large pieces of black liquid were scattered. These liquids began to rise as soon as they landed. If one observed carefully, one would feel scalp-numbing to find that it was not black liquid at all, but black leech-like worms, twisting wantonly, searching for living things in the surroundings.

Sweet singing came. Looking at the source of the sound, one could vaguely see holy white light appearing in the distance, making people feel safe and wanting to run over as soon as possible. But if one really approached, one would find that it was a deformity parasitized by a Night Banshee, which was emitting singing that could bewitch gods through the Banshee head growing on it.

Boom!!

A bang appeared not far away. Su Xiao heard the sound and looked over. It was a humanoid existence composed of a large number of black tentacles. The single eye on the other party's chest stared at Su Xiao. After feeling that Su Xiao was not easy to mess with, it swept across the space shock with a boom and disappeared into the distance.

The Wet Salt Zone at night was a dark hell, a place where living things stopped.

Su Xiao stared at the behemoth in the darkness in the distance with red light in the center of his pupils. In the end, the other party retreated due to Su Xiao's spirit. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was holding Su Xiao's leg with two dog paws, swallowed its saliva; it was terrified at the time.

Following the tunnel to the underground station, after throwing a black iron coin, the Beast Train arrived quickly. After getting on the train, Su Xiao turned the knob on the coin machine to Station 6, which was the station near the Overgrown Land. As a result, he found that because the starting point, the Wet Salt Zone, was at night, the fare to that side was 120 black iron coins, half more expensive than during the day.

After throwing the coin, the train started. Su Xiao didn't meditate but leaned back to take a nap. Before long, he heard Bahar and the irritable little elf Diagu start talking in low voices. At first, they were talking and laughing, but before long, they started greeting each other. Regarding this, Su Xiao was exceptionally calm and had long been used to it.

Su Xiao tried to ignore the noise in his ears, and a smile gradually appeared on his face, indicating that his mood must be relaxed. A moment later, Bahar and the irritable little elf were hung on the steel bolt behind the train.

When the Beast Train stopped, it was no longer underground. As the car door opened, fresh air entered the carriage, making people feel relaxed. But after a while, no one saw anyone get off the train, but the train door closed and drove away by itself.

In the different space, Bahar flew in front, letting this different space move forward gradually. Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and the irritable little elf moved forward together. The reason for doing so was to avoid stepping into the Silver Queen's territory and being detected by her Zerg buildings.

Being in the different space, the colors of the surrounding world faded, just like being separated by a thin film. But even so, Su Xiao could still see the bright sunlight falling, which made him feel for a moment that he had already left this ghost place of the Eternal Light World.

After moving forward for more than three hours, a towering Zerg nest appeared in the distance. This Zerg nest was hundreds of meters high. With this as the center, the surroundings were various Zerg buildings. Compared to Jila, the Zerg legion category under the Silver Queen was more comprehensive. There were more than ten types of melee Zerg alone, and there were at least thirty types of flying Zerg. Besides that, there were worker scorpions that maintained Zerg buildings. This was a Zerg unit that all Zerg must have.

Layers of perception means swept across once every 0.5 seconds. Su Xiao wanted to sneak into the mother nest in the center of the building complex, which was impossible, but Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang could.

Su Xiao patted Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang merged into the environment and quietly approached the Silver Queen's mother nest.

At this moment, in the Silver Queen's sleeping nest, the Silver Queen was looking at the shadow opposite and said, "Until now, you Lightless Temple, still haven't found the trace of that Law-Extinguishing Shadow?"

The Silver Queen's body had a streamlined sense of beauty, her shape was similar to the human race, parts of her body had silver biological outer armor, and her hair was like a blade curving backward. On the back of her right hand, there was a deep dark green round pupil.

The Silver Queen's pair of silver vertical pupils were staring at the shadow opposite at this time, which was the representative sent by the Lightless Temple, the head hawk dog under the Lord of Eternal Darkness, Temple Priest Chief Erzle.

"Of course not. In fact, my subordinates will soon be able to find that Law-Extinguishing Shadow, but I don't want to find him."

As Temple Priest Chief Erzle spoke, there was already a smile on his old face with some gray stubble. His implication was clearly that because the confinement of this world was activated, the strongest could only reach the top of the supreme powerhouse. Those four supreme existences of the Lightless Temple were no longer invincible and had become possible to be defeated. Therefore, finding that Law-Extinguishing Shadow now was definitely letting them, these hawk dogs, swarm up, rather than those four supreme ones taking action to kill the Law-Extinguishing Shadow.

Therefore, Temple Priest Chief Erzle didn't want to find the Law-Extinguishing Shadow at all, and even less wanted to try whether the Law-Extinguishing Shadow's strength was true.

"So, you want to betray the Lightless Temple? Your status in the Lightless Temple is only below the Lord of Eternal Darkness, the Progenitor, etc. Is it really worth it for you to do this?"

The Silver Queen opened her mouth with some playfulness.

"As long as I can leave here, it's worth it. The person with the key came here. I have never been hostile to him before, so why should I choose to be hostile to this Law-Extinguishing Shadow and be cannon fodder for those world-destroying existences? Don't say I am from the Lightless Temple. We residents of the Shelter City have no choice; either join or become bait."

Hearing these words from Temple Priest Chief Erzle, the Silver Queen was puzzled in her heart. She still hadn't figured out why this old monster came to find her.

"I heard that you and that Law-Extinguishing Shadow are acquaintances?"

"You... heard it from whom?"

"The Pain Queen, although she has been swallowed by the World-Eater, before that, our cooperation was always very pleasant."

Hearing Temple Priest Chief Erzle mention the World-Eater, the Silver Queen's gaze became serious. She had clashed with the World-Eater once, and the result was that the Zerg legion she sent disappeared quickly, as if it had been swallowed by the world of that area in one bite.

"That Law-Extinguishing Shadow and I are enemies."

"Enemies can also be considered acquaintances. If possible, we should cooperate with that Law-Extinguishing Shadow."

"Impossible."

"How is it impossible? As long as we can leave this cage, everything is possible."

These words made the Silver Queen silent. Seeing this, Temple Priest Chief Erzle gradually turned into black mist and dissipated.

On an underground altar tens of kilometers away, Temple Priest Chief Erzle, wearing a black robe, opened his eyes. Another temple priest wearing a scarlet long dress on the side asked, "Erzle, are you really prepared to cooperate with that Law-Extinguishing Shadow?"

The red-clothed priest's tone was a bit hesitant, and for a while, it was difficult to decide which side to stand on.

"Of course, no. The only way we can leave this cage is in the Monarch's Treasure. Now we have found the entrance, but I suspect that the key to the entrance is in the hands of that Law-Extinguishing Shadow. Otherwise, he couldn't be so calm, letting us not perceive half of his traces, and even, he doesn't come to spy on us."

"Oh—I see."

The red-clothed priest was enlightened, but he then pursued and asked, "You suspect the entrance key is with the Law-Extinguishing Shadow, so why come to find this Zerg Queen?"

Hearing this, Temple Priest Chief Erzle touched his gray stubble on his chin, his tone with some uncertainty:

"It's not too important a matter. This Zerg Queen was exiled here by that Law-Extinguishing Shadow. If it were hostile, there was a chance to exile this Zerg Queen, so why not kill her directly? The Zerg Queen is not immortal. So I guess that Law-Extinguishing Shadow exiled this Zerg Queen for another purpose, but I haven't thought of the reason yet."

Temple Priest Chief Erzle's brows furrowed, and in the end, he shook his head.

Seeing this situation, the red-clothed priest guessed, "You say, is there such a possibility that this Zerg Queen is a subordinate of that Law-Extinguishing Shadow, exiled here to develop in advance, and after that Law-Extinguishing Shadow comes here, this Zerg Queen will be a big help to him."

"Doesn't look like it."

Temple Priest Chief Erzle denied this conjecture and said with a smile:

"Actually, there is another possibility. That Law-Extinguishing Shadow does have Zerg subordinates, but it's not the Silver Queen. He exiled the Silver Queen here just to let the Silver Queen find an area where she can develop in advance? Otherwise, since they are hostile, compared to exile, isn't killing the enemy more secure?"

When Temple Priest Chief Erzle said this, the smile on his face became more and more intense, which made him look a bit inexplicably weird.

"That's right! Erzle, you are right. No, we must immediately report this matter to..."

"Report to whom?"

Temple Priest Chief Erzle looked at the red-clothed priest with a half-smile.

"Of course, report to the four supreme existences."

When the red-clothed priest finished saying this, his eyes showed doubt, not understanding why Temple Priest Chief Erzle wouldn't understand this point.

"And then? Those four supreme existences will leave the top city and come to this Overgrown Land to destroy the Silver Queen's Zerg nest?"

"This..."

The red-clothed cardinal had nothing to say. If the situation developed like this, it would definitely be them bringing a large number of priests, temple knights, and temple warriors to deal with the Zerg.

"You don't want to lose your life, right."

"Right."

"So, we who are in the same boat should trust each other instead of being pawns for those four supreme existences. You say, right."

Speaking to the end, the smile on Temple Priest Chief Erzle's face became more and more kind, kind to the point that he gradually began to have the facial contours of a priest. To be precise, this was a priest. The real Temple Priest Chief Erzle had long been killed by him and replaced.

At the same time, in the Silver Queen's sleeping nest.

The Silver Queen was pondering what Temple Priest Chief Erzle had just said. If she could really leave this world, would she reconcile with that Law-Extinguishing Shadow? The answer was, of course, no!

Every time she thought of that Law-Extinguishing Shadow, the Silver Queen felt her teeth itch with hatred, not only because she was exiled here by the other party but also because she had completely fallen into the other party's trap before. For the Silver Queen with a proud personality, this was the shame of her life.

The anger gradually rising in her heart made the Silver Queen have the thought that if that Law-Extinguishing Shadow dared to appear here, she would kill him on the spot. After this thought appeared, the Silver Queen couldn't help but laugh.

But just at this time, black-blue smoke suddenly appeared ten-plus meters in front, and then a big dog appeared. This was not the most important thing. The point was that the black-blue smoke that appeared had formed a space coordinate, becoming a positioning point that could be teleported.

Seeing this scene, the Silver Queen was both shocked and fortunate. Fortunately, she didn't save biological energy and formed a sufficiently powerful space-suppression Zerg tower. With this space building, no one could...

Boom!

A loud noise of space teleportation came. From the appearance of the black-blue smoke to the space teleportation, it took no more than 1.5 seconds. Not only that, the figure that was teleported over stabilized its figure, landed, and then squatted on the Silver Queen's sleeping bed.

The Silver Queen, who was lying on her side, hadn't had time to get up. The person who suddenly appeared was already opposite her. The enemy she hated in her heart every day finally appeared today, but the distance was a bit close to the Silver Queen, and the two sides were no more than half a meter apart.

The Silver Queen was stunned. Her lips opened and closed, wanting to say something, but she didn't say it. A few seconds later, she said in a deep voice, "Although I am a Zerg Queen, my close-combat ability is actually very strong, so I advise you not to act rashly."

The Silver Queen's mindset completely collapsed, and she said something she didn't even believe herself. ===== CHAPTER 3752 =====
