Chapter 394: The Law of Forks
After Sun Hao entered the second fork, he rushed forward at his own pace without hurrying.
It wasn't until he reached a deeper place that Sun Hao met another kind of ghost thing, some black maggots, this kind of maggots were dark all over, only four or five feet long, and their habits curled into a ball, forming a two-foot diameter roller, and the extremely fast jump attack Sun Hao.
In contrast, the speed of the black maggot is even faster than that of the ghost scorpion, and the attack frequency is extremely high, and it can burst out five to six hits in the blink of an eye, and the force of the impact is quite strong.
Inside the cave, the environment is dark, and when the black maggots are not moving, they are stuck in the corner of the wall, and it is difficult to find them.
Once the attack is launched, this maggot seems to have inexhaustible strength, as long as it is within this ghost mound, the black maggot can chase and beat the monk fiercely, as if there is no tiredness at all.
What's more troublesome is that after the black maggot curls, the black skin has a strong defense against most spells, and the spell damage is difficult to work.
For ordinary foundation-building monks, this kind of cultivation is quite difficult to deal with as a black maggot in the late stage of foundation building.
Even if Sun Hao was not an ordinary foundation building cultivator, after discovering this black maggot, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
Just when Sun Hao thought about it for a while, three black maggots were already surrounding Sun Hao's body, touching each other, and bumping into each other more than ten times.
Although Sun Hao's body protection Shengang was not broken, the huge impact force knocked Sun Hao back more than a foot away, and in front of him, the maggots were still crashing.
Sun Hao thought for a moment, and his consciousness moved. Mu Dan was shocked, and with a wave of his hand, a huge cage wrapped around the two maggots. Then, Sun Hao raised his hand again, and a huge wooden stake with a diameter of three feet and a length of more than a zhang appeared in the cave, bringing a whirring sound of wind, and with a "bump" sound, it crashed into the two maggots in the cage.
Documentation. This maggot has a very tough black skin and is particularly resistant to spells of various attributes, but. The abdomen and inner skin of this maggot are not particularly strong, which is why maggots like to curl up to attack enemies.
One is curling, like a wheel. The motivation never stops. Second, it is natural to protect one's weakness.
Don't look at the low level of the spells of the Aoki cage and the convex wooden stake, but Sun Hao felt that perhaps, the combination of these two spells should be very useful to deal with this maggot.
The effect is really good, thanks to Sun Hao's strong wood genus Zhenyuan's help, Sun Hao's Aoki cage is extremely tenacious. Trap two maggots at once, so they can't roll at all. Then, the convex stake crashed over.
The black skin of the black maggot, the spirit sword is difficult to hurt, and the defense is good, but the attack of the convex stake is a blunt attack, and the surface of the blunt blow is very large.
Sun Hao noticed that the moment the maggots were hit, there was an obvious action of resisting power in the black skin of the whole body, the black skin shrugged, and then there was a wave-like trembling action from the part where it was hit, and along this action, the impact force of the convex stake was much along the black skin of the maggots into the ground, and finally their bodies were not hurt much.
Although the level of the convex wooden stake sent by Sun Hao is not high, after all, Sun Hao's wood attribute is extremely strong, and the strength is also surprisingly large, and the two maggots cannot completely remove their strength, and after being hit, they are already a little stunned in the Aoki cage.
Sun Hao's heart moved, almost at the same time, without waiting for the two maggots to react, the second convex stake hit it again, and then the third one hit it.
After many years of spell operation practice, Sun Hao's spell casting speed has been extremely fast, and the spell of the raised wooden stake has almost reached the point of instantaneous, in an instant, the three raised wooden stakes hit the maggot's body, snap, and under the impact of the second convex wooden stake, the maggot finally couldn't curl anymore, and the curling force was loosened.
A third stake followed, and with a snap, struck them in the abdomen, striking the ground and splashing a burst of fishy maggot juice, like a pile of battered dough, but it was smashed into a cake and stuck to the walls of the cave.
Sun Hao's consciousness moved, the agarwood sword flew out, turned along the abdomen of a maggot, cut down, divided by two in three strokes, and the black skin was peeled off from the maggot.
Killing spirit beasts and then skinning them is already very skilled for Sun Hao, the black skin of this maggot is a rare refining material to resist spells, even if Sun Hao is not a refiner, but he also knows that its value should be very high.
However, Sun Hao was surprised to find that after the black skin of the maggot was peeled off, it actually shrank rapidly, and when Sun Hao took the black skin to his hand, he found that the black skin, which should have been more than three feet long and half a foot wide, actually became only the size of a palm, but the thickness did not change much.
The palm-sized black skin can't do much, but within the ghost mound, it is estimated that there are a lot of maggots, and as long as Sun Hao continues to walk, it is estimated that there will be a lot of gains.
Sun Hao had to clean up the cave anyway, and the black skin of maggots was an unexpected gain.
After killing the two maggots, Sun Hao sighed again, this spell application, really to learn to use your brains, to deal with different opponents, in the choice of spells, you have to be flexible.
Against this maggot, Sun Hao's agarwood sword or fire attribute spell should also be able to make a contribution, but it is definitely not as handy as the cooperation of the Aoki cage and the convex wooden stake.
Both spells, the level is low, Sun Hao's consumption is almost negligible, on the contrary, if Sun Hao uses fire attribute spells, it is estimated that it will be thankless, and the effect of using the agarwood sword may be better, but it is estimated that it is not possible to pierce this black skin in three or two strokes, I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort, far less easy and natural than using two low-level spells.
Putting away the two pieces of black skin, Sun Hao quickly moved forward along this fork, but the advance was only more than three zhang, and in his divine consciousness, this fork had come to an end, that is to say, this fork was a dead end, and the right path should be the first fork that Sun Hao withdrew.
Sun Hao smiled indifferently, calculated the actual distance of this fork, and then, turned around, returned along the road again, reached the fork, thought about it, got into another cave, and began to rush forward.
Inside the cave, I don't know how deep, the depth is bottomless, and this way in, but it is no longer stable. Walking out of less than ten zhang, Sun Hao will encounter a group of ghost scorpions attacking, and even Xiaohuo, from the surprise of every encounter with ghost scorpions at the beginning, has become numb later.
Along the way, ghosts have appeared quite frequently, and if they are other foundation building monks, even if they can kill ghost scorpions, it is estimated that they will not be able to go far on this road, either they can't resist the corrosion of yin poison, or the true yuan can't withstand the consumption, and they have to go home.
I don't know how many batches of ghost scorpions were killed, Sun Hao met the second fork, this fork, there are still only two holes, according to the "Ghost Hill Notes", the two holes still have only one main road.
At the fork, Sun Hao paused for a moment before choosing a cave to drill into.
This time, Sun Hao went directly inside, and after killing to a depth of about the same distance as the maggots encountered at the first fork, Sun Hao continued to advance more than 20 zhang, and after advancing in, Sun Hao met the black maggots again, but this time, the number of black maggots was slightly larger, and there were four maggots, which pounced on Sun Hao from different corners.
Sun Hao was not in a hurry, he did the same thing, killed the four maggots, peeled off the black skin, and then continued to move forward.
After only four or five zhang of advancement, Sun Hao found again that this passage was a dead end, that is, another cave was the right way.
Sun Hao returned along the road, thinking as he walked.
In "Notes on Ghost Hill", the remnant soul real person brushed aside the situation in the front passage, and the purpose of the remnant soul real person was very clear, but he really didn't analyze much of the ghost things in the ghost hill cave.
However, Sun Hao has come along the way, and after careful analysis, he has found some rules.
In the main road, Sun Hao did not find maggots, maggots are more difficult than ghost scorpions, the level is higher, and the maggots were found twice at the end of the dead road, does this indicate something?
Of course, Sun Hao is not very deep in at present, and whether it is really this law still needs to be verified.
Sun Hao was not in a hurry, and continued to move forward, this time, every time Sun Hao encountered a fork, he would always explore the path of death on his own, until the end of the road of death.
After some exploration, Sun Hao didn't know how long he had been advancing in this passage, and finally summed up a few rules.
The situation is really as Sun Hao expected, at the end of the road of death, there will definitely be some stronger ghosts, and as Sun Hao continues to deepen, the strength and number of ghosts are also increasing.
Sun Hao also found that as he deepened, the length of the Dead Path continued to increase, and the time it took for Sun Hao to explore the Dead Path gradually increased.
If this law is true, then, that is to say, the existence of the dead path is very valuable, unlike the remnant soul cultivator who has an obvious goal, Sun Hao is here, the target is blood crystal, then, according to the law, the ghost level is high, the strength is strong, and the probability of blood crystal appearing will be correspondingly higher.
At present, maggots and ghost scorpions have their own value, and there is not much difference, but as Sun Hao deepens, this change is likely to change from quantitative to qualitative.
After Sun Hao analyzed for a while, an indifferent smile appeared on his face, and he decided not to hurry, and cleaned up the road by way, first, to ensure the safety of the back road, and secondly, to naturally collect some maggot black skin, this thing must also be in sufficient quantity to be more valuable.
