The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 185 — City of Noula : Disease Outbreaks (22)
Lian Haocun held onto Lian Huanran's hand so that they would not be scattered. After all, it could be said that their surroundings were so pitch-black that they could not even see each other's faces. Therefore, it was not easy for Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran to avoid the sharp teeth of the Childly Demon Worm, plus the Childly Demon Worm was always on the move, fortunately there seemed to be no worm child inside the mouth of the Childless Demon Worm.
The journey of killing the Childless Demon Worm had not long started but, there were already various wounds on the bodies of Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran, although they could not see their wounds, they still felt the pain. And, in that short amount of time as well, Lian Haocun regretted agreeing to Lian Huanran's stubborn request. Fortunately, since their bodies were protected by Spiritual Qi, the injuries caused by those sharp teeth were not that bad.
“How long will we be ‘surfing’ in between,’duri-duri’'s?” Lian Huanran asked breaking the silence.
“No know. Inside here is too dark, Big Brother also can't use the power of the fire element for lighting.” Reply Lian Haocun informed them of their situation, which implicated their situation was not in a favorable condition.
Lian Huanran nodded in understanding, undeniably, he felt a little afraid, but due to the existence of his brother, his fear decreased drastically.
It was unknown how long they had been in the darkness, they just went with the flow and continued forward. They did not know what was ahead, but they continued forward without hesitation.
After all, staying still in place would not yield any results, especially if they gave up when they had come this far. Although they could only see the endless darkness, their spirit light was not extinguished at all.
After walking for some time, Lian Huanran finally did not feel anymore ‘dui-duri’ pierced the soles of his feet, nor his limbs. Only small injuries on the bodies of the two twin brothers that became a trace of the existence of the 'thorns.
“Stop.” Said Lian Haocun suddenly.
Lian Huanran who was walking in front of her Brother, stopped immediately and looked at where her Brother was. His eyes were filled with questions because of Lian Haocun's words.
Responding to Lian Huanran's curious gaze, Lian Haocun said, “Ten your hearing, did the sound of water droplets sound?”
Lian Huanran did what her brother said, and heard the sound of water droplets falling to the ground, which previously sounded very faint. If heard more clearly, the droplet seemed to fall into a puddle of water, and not the ground. Not only that, although the surroundings were extremely dark, Lian Huanran could feel their place was noticeably wider than before.
“Do not approach the puddle of water, we do not know what it contains something harmful to us or not, it is better not to risk.” Said Lian Haocun warning Lian Huanran not to dabble. Instantly, Lian Huanran instantly undoes his intention to plunge his feet into a puddle of water that is unknown how deep.
“We need lighting..” Said Lian Huanran, although he knew his brother also knew this.
Lian Haocun thought for a moment before saying, “As I recall, you once caught a firefly as a child, do you still keep it in your storage ring?”
In an instant, a small light emitting warmth shone around them. It was not as bright as lanterns or lanterns, even the light was a bit dim, but it was enough for them. Lian Haocun formed his Spiritual Qi into a transparent hand, and took out the jar containing the firefly from Lian Huanran.
Then, he controlled the transparent hand to move in a random direction, to give them an idea of where they were right now. Their place was indeed wider than before, and had 'walls' as red as human flesh. Looking at the structure they were in right now, Lian Haocun estimated that they were already in the belly of a worm.
Then, he moved the jar filled with fireflies up, and found something shocking! There, there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of shells that seem to contain worm cubs still in the embryo. When looking at the transparent shells dripping water, Lian Huanran felt a little uncomfortable, and averted his gaze.
Then, Lian Haocun moved the jar closer to the puddle. Because it was dark, the color of the puddle was invisible, but Lian Haocun guessed it was a transparent yellow color. After finishing illuminating the various corners where they were, Lian Haocun returned the jar containing the fireflies to Lian Huanran, then Lian Huanran kept it in his storage ring again.
“What will we do?” Asked Lian Huanran, he was curious about his brother's opinion, and wanted to know how he would respond to this problem.
“Destroying all the hanging shells above.” Lian Haocun replied casually, as if it were easy to do. As for Lian Huanran who heard it, instantly felt that it was impossible to do!
As if looking into Lian Huanran's mind, Lian Haocun said, “We just need to take out the pressure of the Golden Core Formation stage, and should all of those shells be destroyed, because according to Brother's observation, we just need to take out the pressure of the Golden Core Formation stage, and should all be destroyed, the shell is very thin.”
“Simple it?” Lian Huanran seemed surprised by how simple it was, but, knowing clearly, after doing so, it was likely that their Spiritual Qi was only ¼. However, in the end, Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran released a Golden Core Formation stage pressure to destroy hundreds to possibly thousands of embryos.
Instantly a glass-like sound was broken, echoing constantly in their ears. It continued for five minutes nonstop, but suddenly it appeared a light shining very brightly! Therefore, Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran stopped exerting pressure, and looked for what had happened. The light was out of nowhere, but Lian Haocun did not feel any danger from the light, even so, he remained vigilant and pulled Lian Huanran back.
Then, a spectacular sight appeared before them, with eyes as sharp as an eagle, Lian Haocun could see a fragile-looking paper hovering near the already broken shells. Fragile paper gives off symbols and lines like holograms.
The symbols looked quite foreign to Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran. However after forming a complete symbol, the symbol collapsed suddenly for no apparent reason! The stripes, as well as the falling symbols, turn into small fragments before disappearing.
At the same time as the symbols and lines disappeared, accompanied by burning paper, Lian Haocun and Lian Huanran could feel themselves detached from a shackle. Lian Haocun who had guessed what was happening, trying to use the power of his element, sure enough, seemed to have flames coming out of Lian Haocun's hands.
“What we destroyed earlier seems like a spell paper that makes us unable to use the power of the element.” Lian Haocun explained. Lian Huanran nodded in understanding, then they continued their journey, with the illumination from the Lian Haocun flames, their journey went on more smoothly than before. Until, they met that guy.
