Chapter 177 Discovery of the Illithid War Lord
The function of the Crystal Palace is simple, which is to control the weather in the divine realm.
Wind and rain.
Sunny, cloudy.
Climate adjustments such as temperature and so on are only available when the first level is unlocked, and they cannot be too large.
Extreme weather conditions such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, large hail, and typhoons cannot be unlocked for the time being.
The water stored in the central pond of the divine domain can be turned into rain by evaporating a large amount of water vapor and falling on other newly opened wastelands in the divine domain.
The next ten days of rain will soak the hard mud and soften it, making it easier to cultivate.
As for the Star Gate, there is no need to explain it. You can tell what it is used for by reading the introduction.
Possessing this means that he will have the ability to descend to an alien dimension independently.
The two instructors Tai Shujing and Xiao Zhenqian at the Blackrock Spire War Academy have the ability to descend to alien dimensions because they possess the Star Gate or similar treasures.
Li Qing didn't know how powerful other people's star gates were or how far they could teleport, but his own was quite powerful.
You can teleport within this plane group at only level one.
The next level is probably the inter-dimensional group.
The third level is even more powerful, and it is estimated that it can cross extremely long distances and descend to other distant alien dimensions.
Teleportation requires coordinates. Initially, he has two permanent coordinates, namely the loaded divine domain and the Tree of Eternity. This means that if he accidentally loses himself in the foreign void, he can still teleport back.
The prerequisite is that it can be teleported that far. If the distance is too far, you may need to upgrade the Star Gate to level two or three before you can teleport back.
After making preparations and letting his men guard the house, Li Qing added the coordinates of his main base into the Star Gate.
Then he opened a space gate and teleported to the black iron stone mine base more than a thousand kilometers away, where he also buried a coordinate.
After doing all this, Li Qing spread his wings, transformed into a half-dragon and flew into the depths of the plane.
Zhuo Shaohang went with him. I don’t know how he managed to keep up with him so easily and quietly.
After being promoted to the ninth level, Li Qing's strength has been much stronger than before. Although there has been no qualitative change, it is enough to easily defeat two of his former seventh-level selves. He pounced on any powerful beasts he saw along the way and killed them with a few hits.
With his current strength, as long as he doesn't provoke those legendary beasts, no one below the legendary level can be his match.
The size and aura of the legendary beast are destined to be impossible to hide. The beast has no intelligence and cannot hide. It can be sensed and avoided from a long distance.
Killing all the way, he unknowingly arrived above the dinosaur city-state and instantly sensed the legendary totem hidden in the city-state.
The last time he came here, he was only at level seven, and now he is at level nine, and his strength has doubled.
But in Li Qing's perception, the threat posed by this legendary totem has been weakened a lot, but it still exists.
This shows that the legendary totem worshipped by this dinosaur city-state can still pose a huge threat to itself.
Li Qing looked back at Zhuo Shaohang who was following him silently, and suddenly asked:
"Can we, together, deal with the totem below?"
Zhuo Shaohang said expressionlessly:
"If I were you, leave now."
Li Qing was somewhat puzzled:
"Is the gap really that big? You've seen my true form. I can challenge opponents of higher levels. And the totem underneath is most likely a Tyrannosaurus Rex. It can't fly, so it can't do anything to me."
Zhuo Shaohang still answered expressionlessly:
"If it's just a legendary beast, you can give it a try, but this is a totem that controls the power of faith and divine power."
Having said this, he turned his head and looked at Li Qing, and said seriously:
"The totem can resist a demigod in his own home turf!"
Li Qing...
"Okay, let's go."
Li Qing let out a long breath, turned around and left.
Halfway away from the dinosaur city-state, Li Qing became more and more confused the more he thought about it, so he took out the information about the secret of the true God that Gu Qiangu had given him last time and started to look through it.
This material involves information related to the power of faith, divine power, and true God, but Li Qing is not even a legend now. He has only briefly looked at the information about the transmission of the power of faith and the cultivation of believers, and has not seen anything about totems.
After flipping through the catalog for a while, I finally found the information related to totems and began to check it carefully .
An hour later, Li Qing looked up:
"So that's how it is."
The information on the totem is introduced in detail, and the strength of the totem is divided into several levels.
The first level is the totem that has just been worshipped. There is basically nothing magical about it. The only difference from non-totems is that it absorbs the power of faith or divine power and possesses divinity. Its resistance and physique are stronger than before, but it has no special abilities.
The second level is the senior totem, which is generally above legendary in strength, and some are comparable to demigods.
This kind of totem is not only extremely powerful in itself, but has also learned to use divine power to make itself stronger. The key is that it has opened up its territory, which is the home court, generally referring to the tribe that believes in it and the surrounding areas not far away.
For example, the totem in this dinosaur city-state covers the entire dinosaur city-state and the several affiliated city-states that were previously destroyed by Li Qing's troops.
Within the home field, you will receive bonuses, enemies will be weakened, and you will gain special abilities in several areas.
Free flight.
Free delivery.
This means that within its home turf, this legendary Tyrannosaurus can fly and teleport freely, instantly teleporting to your face. With the powerful physique and strength of the legendary totem, even Li Qing, who has the size of the ancient dragon, may still be overturned.
"He's gone! He's gone!"
Before he was promoted to the tenth level, Li Qing would not have thought of this thing.
Beyond the dinosaur city-state is an endless primeval jungle. Gray fog fills the sky above the jungle. From time to time, you can see a huge figure rampaging in the wild jungle, and then it provokes another ferocious beast. The two sides fight each other, and the roars of the beasts shake the sky.
There are many dinosaurs in this plane, but the dinosaur people who can evolve into intelligence are mostly carnivorous dinosaurs. Li Qing has not yet seen any herbivorous dinosaurs evolve.
The abundance of food and the plane's special environment ensure that even the giant herbivorous dinosaurs can survive.
The Brachiosaurus, which is tens of meters tall, and the giant Seismosaurus, which is nearly a hundred meters long from head to tail, are even larger than the dinosaurs of the Jurassic period on Earth.
In addition to dinosaurs, there are also a large number of powerful beasts in the plane that are extremely ferocious and can fight against carnivorous dinosaurs, such as the Titanoboa that is more than 100 meters long, the ancient giant crocodiles that float in the water like small islands, and various huge beasts that have never been seen before, countless.
These giant beasts are Li Qing’s favorites, as they are all walking combat experiences.
Whenever it sees one, it will proactively attack after making sure there are no hidden giant beasts around.
First, it flew to a height of tens of thousands meters, threw down a giant iron fiber hundreds of meters long, and then swooped down and slashed down with a breath of space dragon breath.
After two sets of combined punches, the target will be either lightly injured or seriously injured, and the risk of killing is the lowest at this time.
As he moved forward, there was blood and gore all along the way. Countless ferocious beasts living in the primitive jungle suffered misfortune.
But that's how it is in the wild jungle. Either you eat me or I eat you. It's just bad luck to meet him.
When Li Qing left the base to hunt deep in the wilderness, he found a huge city deep in the lush primeval jungle south of East District 10.
The city walls were high and smooth, with a magic tower surrounded by an energy halo on each side. In the center stood a tower even larger than the wizard tower, with a surging energy halo that continued to spread into the distance.
If a war lord passes by here, he will know at a glance that this is an unfolding divine domain.
At this moment, in the core of the divine realm, in the gorgeously decorated study of the Mage Tower, a handsome blue-haired man was contacting others through the network of the Eternal Tree.
"I found him."
"real?"
The man nodded:
"Yes, the information I bought from the Thunder Consortium a few days ago shows that he is to our east, about 2,000 kilometers away."
"So close? Have you sent anyone to check it out?"
"Of course, I've already sent people over to scout. Once the location is confirmed, I'll dispatch troops there."
"How sure are you?"
The blue-haired man laughed out loud:
"Are you kidding me? I'm not sure."
“If it was two years ago, I might not have been so confident, but now I have completed part of the seal unlocking and have been promoted to Legend. Even if Yi Zheng’s distant relative comes, I am not afraid. He only has the bloodline of the upper dragon clan, and he is not born sacred like us. It is impossible for him to be promoted to Legend in two years. How can he compare with me?”
"Then what do you do with him?"
"Of course, we will defeat him head-on and drive him out."
"That's it?"
"???, what do you want to say?"
The voice became deeper:
"His unknown superior dragon bloodline is very powerful. Have you ever thought about stripping his bloodline and using it for yourself?"
The blue-haired man frowned:
"This isn't appropriate. Killing people is not right. Between us at this level..."
"You have to understand, he is not on the same level as us!"
The voice interrupted him directly and said coldly:
"Who is he to be on the same level as us? You and I are both born holy and destined to be immortal true gods. He has to work so hard to be promoted to a legendary. How can he be on the same level as us?"
The blue-haired man pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said:
"Shifang, I know you have a grudge against him, but he and I don't have a life-and-death feud, and if I do this, I will offend Gu Qingxin, please forgive me..."
"Tell me what you want."
The blue-haired man immediately showed his delight and laughed:
"That's straightforward! I like you like this. Give me a destiny card and I will strip him of his bloodline. If you can give me five more divine favors, I will shatter his divine domain. If you can give me ten divine favors, I..."
Before he could finish his words, he received a transaction notification.
After a few seconds, Xia Yuanqing looked at the eleven cards in his hand and laughed:
"I will mobilize the troops now. Believe me, I will receive good news within a month."
"I believe you."
One day, a gigantic ancient dragon flew over an endless mountain range at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. Then the view suddenly became clear, and behind the mountain range was an endless plain.
There are more lush primitive jungles, but it is flat as far as the eye can see, with no mountains except for a few low hills.
The dragon flew less than a thousand kilometers across the mountains when his eyes were attracted by a column of smoke rising from the far distance of the plain.
Li Qing was about to fly over to take a look when Zhuo Shaohang, who seldom spoke, suddenly shouted:
"Wait a moment!"
The huge dragon head turned back in surprise. Zhuo Shaohang looked into the distance with a serious expression and said:
"There's a mind fortress of a mind flayer over there!"
Li Qing immediately turned his head and looked over there, but saw nothing.
"really have?"
His ancestor, the ancient dragon, has the Eye of Truth, and generally speaking, illusions and barriers cannot deceive him.
Zhuo Shaohang nodded seriously:
"Absolutely. I can recognize their aura even if they turn into ash."
Li Qing...
"Do you know where it is?"
"Right there."
Following the direction he pointed, I saw nothing except two small hills.
"There's nothing there except two small hills."
"It's the little hill on the left!"
"???"
Zhuo Shaohang explained:
"The divine domain of the Illithid War Lord is different from ours. It usually exists in the form of a fortress or a magic warship. After the divine domain is unfolded, it likes to disguise itself as a mountain or something like that."
Li Qing thought for a moment and said:
"Shall we dive over and take a look?"
Zhuo Shaohang nodded, and Li Qing quickly restored his human form from the ancient dragon form, added invisibility and other confusing spells to himself, and flew over there close to the ground.
As the distance got closer, Li Qingchao's powerful spiritual sense vaguely felt that there seemed to be something in the air.
When it got close enough and passed a tree hundreds of meters high, it saw a strange-looking giant snake coiled on a branch.
Its appearance is very similar to that of a normal big snake, and it is more than 20 meters long, but its head is swollen and its scales are swollen. From a distance it does not look like a snake's head, but rather a strange-looking head with a circle of tiny fleshy tentacles behind the head, and many tentacles on its body.
"Illithid!"
This giant snake has been chosen by a mind-sucking monster and has had its body taken over by it. It is now changing its body into the shape that the mind-sucking monster is accustomed to.
What surprised Li Qing was that a spirit-sucking monster would choose a snake to invade. This was too strange. Normally, a spirit-sucking monster would only choose creatures with extremely high intelligence to parasitize.
Most of them are various intelligent races, and it is almost impossible for them to parasitize animals.
This spirit-sucking monster did not notice the invisible Li Qing, let alone Zhuo Shaohang, who was essentially a demigod.
As you move forward, you'll see more and more mind-sucking monsters or monsters that are controlled by the mind.
When they were less than ten kilometers away from their destination, the mind fortress of the spirit-sucking monster could no longer be hidden. The powerful mental power could not be concealed and it was as conspicuous as a fire matrix in Li Qing's perception.
At this point they did not move forward, but flew high into the sky where they could see what looked like a small hill ten kilometers away, but was actually a huge meat mountain covered with tentacles.
The distance of ten kilometers was like the bottom of Li Qing's eyes. He could clearly see a large number of monsters gathering in front of the meat mountain.
At the base of the meat mountain, there were many tall velociraptors surrounding a large number of cannon fodder. There was a phalanx of steel golems on each side, about a hundred in number, and behind them were a large number of gargoyles standing on the fleshy outer wall of the Mind Fortress.
