Chapter 142 The Final Puzzle
"No wonder we couldn't find them. They were hiding here."
Li Qing sank down along the edge of the earth at the edge of the plane, and sank tens of thousands of meters in one breath before reaching the location marked on the virtual map.
The edge has become bumpy due to the erosion of the void air, and there are rugged rocks and cracks everywhere. If one or two people hide in the cracks, who would be able to find them?
A normal person would never think of this place if they searched all over the plane.
The two searched back and forth for a long time in the abyss at the edge of the earth, and circled back and forth several times at the location marked on the map, but found no trace of the target.
"Did he run away?"
Gu Qingxin shook her head and said:
"Either they received a warning from the Lord of the Scourge and knew we were coming, so they avoided us in advance, or they hid very deep, making it difficult to sense them."
Li Qing pondered for a moment, then came to the location marked on the map again. He opened his mouth to gather strength, and then sprayed a spatial dragon breath towards the stone wall.
The dragon's breath washed the ground, and a thick layer of stone on the stone wall was sprayed into mosaic and fell off.
The dragon's breath spewed back and forth for nearly thirty seconds at a time, and the stone wall with a diameter of nearly two hundred meters was plowed to a thickness of fifty to sixty meters.
After one bite, there was nothing in the sixty-meter-deep depression.
Li Qing quickly took out a handful of pure blood and flesh essence crystals from the space in his palm and swallowed them to restore his strength. Then he changed his position and began to accumulate strength again.
It spewed out for another full thirty seconds, once again creating a pit nearly two hundred meters in diameter and sixty meters deep.
After taking a short rest to recover his strength, Li Qing came to another stone wall on the side and opened his mouth to gather strength again.
Just as he was about to spit, his scalp suddenly felt tingling and goose bumps appeared on his forehead. He quickly restrained his dragon breath and turned around. The crystal wall of the plane hundreds of meters behind him suddenly began to distort, and soon formed a huge skull face, with bulges quickly appearing.
A pair of gazes formed by dim light shone over like a searchlight, and a cold murderous intent came over him.
"A legendary warrior!"
But Gu Qingxin just took a look and shook her head:
"Don't worry, he doesn't dare come in."
Li Qing also nodded:
"I know."
Without looking back, he turned his head, quickly gathered his strength and sprayed a breath of space dragon breath over.
He still did not discover anything after this breath of dragon, but when he was about to take the fourth breath, a gray light suddenly spurted out from one of the cracks in the stone wall, and then two figures rushed out from it and quickly fled to the left and right.
Li Qing grinned and said:
"I'm on the right and you're on the left!"
"Can!"
The dragon wings spread out and pounced towards the golden light on the right at an extremely fast speed. It caught up with it in two consecutive flashes and stretched out its huge finger to point:
"Advanced Space Lock!"
The figure suddenly stopped and then quickly slowed down.
Li Qing used a space confinement, and the figure stopped with a sudden shock. A burst of deathly energy exploded, and the space confinement did not take effect.
But his figure was also revealed, a golden skeleton with all bones golden. Li Qing sensed a familiar divine aura from him.
No need to ask, this must be the descendant of the God of Calamity.
The golden skull stopped and looked at Li Qing. Suddenly, its golden jaw opened and closed, and it spoke in human language:
"Human destiny, perhaps we don't need to fight to the death. You want benefits, right? We can make a deal. I will give you a treasure that satisfies you in exchange for my freedom."
Li Qing had no interest in listening to his so-called deal and shook his head.
"If I kill you, what's yours will also be mine."
The Golden Skull said loudly:
"That's not necessarily true. You and I are both destiny people. We know the rules. If you kill me, you will definitely get a few destiny points, but other benefits may not come from the loot box. If we trade, I am willing to pay a treasure that is no less than that one destiny point."
Li Qing's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said curiously:
"Do you have a treasure that is not inferior to the destiny point?"
"Yes!"
Seeing Li Qing's quite excited reaction, the Golden Skull nodded and his tone relaxed a little. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the half-dragon man stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly, and an invisible force field exploded with the half-dragon man as the center.
The space force field unfolds.
Then he pointed his finger:
"Space confinement!"
The invisible space around him quickly turned into substance, forming a wall of space with no blind spots that bound him.
Then he quickly used the LV5 steel wall to reinforce the space, and also used a LV5 malicious transformation spell.
However, the golden skeleton reacted quickly and immediately pulled out a golden rib from its chest and turned it into a golden sword. He clasped his hands together and his whole body was filled with golden divine power, making him immune to the malicious transformation. The divine power gathered on the sword and stabbed downwards fiercely.
"boom!"
The space shook violently, and the spatial confinement was torn apart by the sword filled with divine power.
Then the golden skeleton held the sword high with both hands, muttering something, and the next second the sword quickly burned with dark golden flames and slashed forward. The powerful divine power tore open the space confinement, and one by one, the messengers of death were summoned, their bodies burning with gray flames, wearing tattered black cloaks and holding classic bone sickles.
"Kill him!"
With a wave of the golden bone sword, a row of ten death messengers disappeared, but at this moment Li Qing felt an unprecedented threat.
"Nimma, that's cheating!"
This messenger of death is the messenger of the god of death, a messenger of God. His rank and life essence are very high. Even with Li Qing's current strength, he cannot stop it from traveling through space and becoming invisible, nor can he exile it.
As the favorite messenger of all the gods of death in all planes of the Chaos Void Sea, this messenger of death possesses super powerful single-kill capabilities.
Under normal circumstances, the descendants of gods can only summon one or two, but this time they summoned ten messengers of death in one go. This is pure cheating.
Li Qing transformed almost without hesitation, raised his head and roared like a dragon, quickly transforming into the state of the original ancient dragon.
"Wow!"
When the ancient dragon with a wingspan of nearly two hundred meters appeared again, many academy instructors who had been paying attention to them exclaimed in amazement.
A mentor bowed to Nie Yang to express his congratulations and exclaimed:
"The dragon race is still powerful. The upper dragon race that this apprentice awakened controls the power of space, which is an extremely rare power system. He is also a leader among all the upper dragon races. He has a bright future!"
Another instructor nodded and praised:
"He awakened the upper dragon clan and the descendants of gods at the same time. In the future, he will definitely be able to condense the super-powerful priesthood of the giant dragon. He even has some hope of mastering the original priesthood of space. No matter which one he masters, it will be extraordinary and his future is limitless!"
Nie Yang kept a serious expression when hearing his colleagues' praise, but the slightly upturned corners of his mouth betrayed his inner thoughts.
Inside the crystal wall, as Li Qing revealed his true form as an ancient dragon, the spatial force field that was only half effective in the half-dragon form quickly grew stronger, and the ten death messengers hidden in the void were involuntarily forced out.
In just a moment, half of the ten death messengers had jumped behind him, and one of them had already cut off a piece of his dragon scale with a sickle.
Li Qing didn't care about the coldness that touched his soul from behind. He opened his mouth without hesitation to gather strength. A five-meter-wide and extremely condensed half-moon space wave blade flashed, splitting the imprisoned descendant of the God of Calamity in half from head to hip, and even splitting the soul fire into two.
Without saying anything, kill the summoner first.
The ten death messengers can't do anything even if they transform into ancient dragons, and they can't be caught because they can't become invisible.
The human and half-dragon forms are flexible, but they can't fight.
The ancient dragon form can be used to defeat it, but its body is not flexible enough to catch it.
But he doesn't need to fight against ten death messengers foolishly, just kill the summoner.
This descendant of the God of Calamity does have some strength, but facing the Ancient Dragon in its prime, he is completely powerless to fight back.
After being imprisoned, he was killed instantly with one sword.
As the descendant of the God of Calamity died, a large dark golden ball of light flew out, and several nearby messengers of death quickly pounced on the ball of light. One of the fastest and swiftest had already put his hand on the dark golden ball of light. Li Qing, who had not noticed this for a moment, was shocked. He did not expect that the spoils of war could still be stolen.
But the next second he breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as the messenger of death touched the spoils, Li Qing heard a muffled sound in his ears. Then he felt that the space around him was taken over by an irresistible huge force in an instant. The surrounding space expanded instantly, and even the crystal wall of space hundreds of meters away bulged outward.
There was only a muffled sound, and the out-of-control space returned to its original state. The ten Death Lords directly turned into ten balls of smoke and were being sucked into the trophy light ball.
Li Qing reacted immediately, and after regaining his human form, he bowed to the sky to express his gratitude.
It was obvious that the True God Vice President of the academy had taken action.
After collecting the spoils, he combined them with the unopened spoils to create a large treasure chest that was gleaming with golden light.
Li Qing happily put it away and flew to the left. Two kilometers away, he found Gu Qingxin hammering a skeleton wizard with blue flames all over his body.
Her situation was easier than Li Qing's. Non-godly people were not qualified to summon messengers of death at will. Without the help of her subordinates, she was no match for Gu Qingxin.
In less than five minutes, the skeleton mage was smashed into pieces by Gu Qingxin's small hands and died.
At the moment when the last Scourge Lord fell, Li Qing clearly felt a cold gaze staring at him from outside the plane.
He didn't know whether it was the master of natural disasters, but he and Gu Qingxin quickly left the edge of this plane.
Although he knew clearly that the Lord of Natural Disasters would not take action, he still felt guilty about being under the nose of a big man who could easily kill him for a long time.
The moment the college leader took action, Li Qing knew how far away he was from the true God at this moment, and he was truly powerless to resist.
Even he who had mastered the original laws of space was easily deprived of his control over space without any warning. What kind of gap is this?
Returning to the temporary camp, one can clearly feel that the aura of the undead in the plane is disappearing rapidly. The ubiquitous sense of oppression in the plane is also slowly fading. At the same time, the contact and communication with the Blackrock Tower of the academy is becoming more obvious.
All signs indicate that the Wind of Death has passed.
While waiting, Li Qing returned to the divine realm alone and took out the treasure chest.
But before opening it, he prayed again:
"I want destiny points, not undead treasures."
"A few more extraordinary hero skill points."
Read it three times in a row and open the treasure chest.
Seven trophy cards emitting dazzling light floated in the gushing golden light.
“This is too concentrated!”
Li Qing rubbed his face, rubbed his hands, and took out the spoils one by one.
The first one was not surprising, it was a destiny card.
Thus, he had two points of destiny on hand.
Then look at the second card that emits a strong golden light. It is actually a rare divine card. It contains a bit of pure divinity and can be directly fused without any sequelae.
The divinity that is normally stripped from other divine creatures or separated from divine artifacts usually retains the spiritual imprint of the previous owner, or even the residual soul.
If one's strength is insufficient for fusion, there is a high possibility that the spiritual imprint or residual soul of the divinity will take over his body.
Pure divinity does not have these problems. There is nothing inside it and it can be directly integrated.
Then the third loot card came up. Li Qing raised his eyebrows and a hint of joy appeared on his face: 8 extraordinary hero skill points.
"It's really fun to cheat!"
If you want extraordinary hero skill points, come to Extraordinary Hero Skill Points, it’s simply too cool.
After happily putting away the spoils, Li Qing looked at the fourth card.
Death Messenger Summon *10: Randomly summon a Death Messenger with strength between level 6 and 10 Sanctuary, lasting 15 minutes.
"hey-hey!"
There is nothing to say about this. He has tried the Death Messenger's strength. That bone sickle can even break the dragon scales of the ancient dragon with ease. He is also a God's Messenger. His strength cannot be judged by normal rank.
And judging from his inexplicable luck, although it is called a random summon, there is actually a high probability that he can summon a high-level death messenger.
The ten summoning cards together can be used as a killer trump card.
The fifth loot card is a hero treasure.
Hero's Treasure: Death Scythe.
Grade: Top-quality rare item.
Equipment location: Weapons.
Passive attribute: The attack sharpness of your troops is increased by +3.
Passive attributes: Increases the holder's attack by 100%, 100% chance to cut off weapons and equipment below excellent, 20% chance to cut off excellent quality weapons and equipment, 1% chance to cut off good quality weapons and equipment.
Active skill: Soul attack. After it is activated, the next attack can cause equal damage to the target's soul at the same time. The cooling time is 1 day.
"???"
"Where did this thing come from?"
Li Qing remembered that the descendant of the God of Calamity did not have this heroic treasure in his hands. What he used was the Golden Bone Sword.
The only one who can use this thing is the Death Messenger, but the Death Messenger summoning card is already there, so how come another treasure of the same type will appear?
I can't figure it out.
However, Li Qing did not keep dwelling on this. It had already happened, so there was no point dwelling on it.
The sixth card: A complete fragment of a divine warrior magic pattern construct.
More complete than the previous two combined.
Li Qing looked at the size and estimated that it would be about 70% to 80% complete when put together with the other two fragments.
Obviously, this thing came from the Gnoll city-state destroyed by the Scourge Lord, and the first fragment he got came from a Gnoll tribe.
A degree of completeness of 70% to 80% is basically considered quite complete. If we can find a sufficiently good magic pattern construction master, perhaps we can repair this thing.
It was at least a fourth-tier magic pattern suit, and it came with a legendary hero inheritance. This was worth...
You should know that this magic pattern structure can be mass-produced.
"Can!"
Li Qing carefully put the piece of debris away.
Then he opened the seventh and final piece of trophy. When he saw its attributes, Li Qing's eyes almost popped out.
Invitation to the Descendant of the Scourge God: The Lord of Scourge admires you very much and invites you to become a descendant of the Lord.
Attributes: Use mana to activate this invitation in any alien plane.
"I lost it!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Li Qing was speechless on the spot, not knowing whether to be happy or...
"So, what's the use of this thing?"
I definitely won't use it. I'm a good human being. Who would be interested in hanging out with a bunch of undead? The descendants of the Scourge God are also undead.
