C1739 Unlucky!
"Why is it so cold? It's bone-chilling cold! Ah! I've been penetrated by the cold!"
A Sixth Grade Ancestral Immortal, who had never been to the The Abyss of Enchantment before, had not even heard the warning from the fat old man when he let out a miserable howl. Coincidentally, a bright light landed on his body, and everyone could clearly see that this Sixth Grade Ancestral Immortal had congealed from the inside out. In less than two breaths of time, she had turned into an ice sculpture, and all the life energy in his body disappeared.
Dead! He had fallen!
The faces of the four Ancestral Immortals were ashen.
From the top of the abyss to the bottom, several hours had passed. They had lost five sixth grade Ancestral Immortals due to the primordial chaos, baleful wind, and black flames. They had finally made it to the ground, but yet another Ancestral Immortal had died instantly due to the cold energy seeping through their bodies.
There were many experts from the four families, but they couldn't withstand such a loss.
Even if they took advantage of the Taiyuan Ancient City, the Four Great Families still had to pay a heavy price to nurture a rank 6 Ancestral Immortal. In just a few short hours, six rank 6 Ancestral Immortals had fallen.
"All of you, be careful as you circulate the Ancestral Immortal Elephant. You must ensure that it is isolated from all external forces of air. "Especially don't spread our consciousness out. In here, we can only rely on our eyes. Don't forget that once you become an Ancestral Immortal, we still have a pair of eyes that can look at things."
"The ground at the bottom of the abyss is an extremely hard rock. It's recorded in ancient records that this is called the Chalcedony, and it's a very hard material to refine into a magical equipment. Just by relying on its toughness and the terrifying cold energy contained within, it doesn't need to engrave array patterns, it can forcefully freeze an ordinary ninth level Ancestral Immortal to death without needing a high level of artifact forging technique."
What?
There was actually such a terrifying material in this world?
The eyes of the Ancestral Immortals who had never entered the The Abyss of Enchantment before suddenly lit up. In this dark abyss, they were like small lanterns.
Due to their instinctive thirst for high grade materials, cultivators had even forgotten the cruel fact that a sixth grade Ancestral Immortal had been frozen into an ice sculpture. One of the sixth stage Ancestral Immortals looked like he was possessed and was about to knock a Chalcedony out of the ground.
Fortunately, a bright light swept over, allowing the short and fat old man to see his movements.
However, because of this, the short and fat old man angrily reprimanded that rank six Ancestral Immortal.
"What are you thinking? His body had entered the The Abyss of Enchantment, but his head did not follow down? Over the countless years, many Ancestral Immortals from the Four Major Families and other forces have come to the The Abyss of Enchantment to explore, but the news of the Chalcedony has never spread.
"Foolish beyond compare!"
"I solemnly warn all of you, if you want to live, then stop digging for Chalcedony. None of us present, including myself, will be able to unearth the Chalcedony. Forcefully digging will only stimulate the hidden cold energy in the Chalcedony to erupt violently. The consequences will be like this, without me saying anything, just look around you guys and you will know it! "
When everyone heard this, they subconsciously glanced at the frozen rank six Ancestral Immortal and couldn't help but shrink their heads. Just now, that rank six Ancestral Immortal was frozen to death by the cold air that seeped through his body before he could even get ready. If he were to stimulate the cold energy within the Chalcedony to erupt and form an even more terrifying cold tide, wouldn't he be done for?
In an instant.
Everyone gave up on the idea of digging the Chalcedony.
But right at this moment, a sixth rank Ancestral Immortal suddenly cried out in alarm, "Milord, there's a stone pit over there!"
"What stone pit?"
Before the chunky old man could react, he turned around in a daze. He looked over from afar and was immediately thrown into disarray. Under the light's illumination, there was a huge crater on the ground not too far away. With their eyesight, they could tell that the crater was definitely not natural, but man-made.
A second ago, he was still confidently saying that it was impossible for them to steal the Chalcedony away, solemnly warning them that they could not have such thoughts if they wanted to live. In the next second, a crater appeared. It was obvious that someone had dug away all of the Chalcedony in a radius of five kilometers. Was there anything more crappy than this?
"This is impossible!"
The short and fat old man felt as though he was about to go crazy. He could even feel the gazes of the other Ancestral Immortals filled with suspicion.
He took a big stride forward, wanting to get a better look at the pit to see if it was man-made.
Who would have known that because of her impatience, she would neglect to guard against her enemies?
Just as his foot landed on the edge of the pit, he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain beneath his feet. It was actually a worm the size of a palm crawling out of the incomparably hard and cold Chalcedony, biting onto his toes.
It was a crisp sound.0
The little finger of his left foot was bitten off.
Pain! Pain! Pain!
Pain that pierced his heart!
What was even more terrifying was that at the wound where the little insect had bitten off his finger, there was an unusual dark green color that entered his blood. He immediately felt his entire body go numb and he felt like he was about to lose control.
"Dammit, those are the Primal Chaos Gold Devouring Bugs!"
A big boss of the Mystic Crow Divinity Cave, upon discovering the worm, couldn't help but yell out in both shock and anger.
There was nothing ordinary in the primal chaos.
Nothing in the world that could be related to chaos was simple. The Chaotic Gold Devouring Bug was a species of chaos lifeform that relied on devouring metals to survive. Although the Chalcedony's name sounded like a type of rock, it was actually also a type of metal.
Aside from being interested in metals, the Primal Chaos Gold Devouring Bug had no interest in anything else. Under normal circumstances, the golden insects wouldn't actively attack other creatures.
But the pudgy old man was in such a rush that he actually accidentally stepped on the body of the Primordial Gold Devouring Bug, which, out of self-defense, of course wanted to bite him.
This was purely a matter of luck, it was the short and fat old man's bad luck.
However, the current elders of the Black Crow Paradise could not be bothered with the matter of the short and fat old man's luck. This was because they knew that the golden insects normally wouldn't take the initiative to attack other creatures, but if they were unlucky and actually got bitten by the golden insects, the consequences would be dire.
The gold devouring insects would devour all kinds of metals to make a living, and they would form a terrifying type of gold fiend energy. In the ancient texts of the four families, there were no related names for this kind of aurous aura. They only knew that once this aurous aura entered the bloodstream, it would completely metallize a person within half a month.
Furthermore, regardless of cultivation level, it was impossible to use the circulation method to expel the Golden Fiend Qi.
That meant the short and fat old man was dead for sure!
"Damn it!" "How could this be?"
The four leaders of the Mystic Crow's cave were simply about to explode from anger and hysteria. He had just lost six sixth grade Ancestral Immortals, and now, he had gained another short, fat old man. No matter how deep the foundations of the four great clans were, they wouldn't be able to find many rank two Ancestral Immortals or rank nine Ancestral Immortals.
The short and fat old man was stunned by this sudden turn of events, despair written all over his face.
There was terror in the face of death, and no one could resist that fear. It originated from instinct, and did not concern himself with cultivation.
"What should we do? What should we do? Seniors, quickly think of a way to help me."
It was a matter of life and death. The chunky old man no longer had the power he had when he was berating the other Ancestral Immortals. He was now filled with despair, helplessness, depression, and the trembling of his heart.
The four seniors of the Mystic Crow Mansion had sorrowful looks on their faces. They wanted to console the short and fat old man, but they didn't know where to start. They knew very well that life or death was a matter of life and death. No matter how warm and safe he was, it would not change the sadness of his impending death.
But he couldn't just sit there and do nothing.
A big boss from the Luofu family said, "There's still half a month, you don't have to be discouraged, you can go back first. No matter what, we must find a way to save you within this half a month. "
"Yes, yes. Heaven never forgets. Although the ancient books of my four great families did not mention the method to save them from being bitten by the Primal Chaos Gold Devouring Bug, they did not say that they would not be able to save them. It's just that our ancestors rarely encountered the Primal Chaos Gold Devouring Beetles, and lacked sufficient understanding of them to think of any other methods. We can try. " Another big boss quickly joined in to cheer for the short and fat old man.
When he said "give it a try", he still felt weak from the bottom of his heart. Obviously, he did not believe what he had said when he said "try it out". If being bitten by the Primal Chaos Golden Devouring Bug could really be saved, the ancestors of the four great families would have thought of a solution countless years ago.
As expected, the short and fat old man was filled with despair. His dejected mood was not relieved in the slightest by the persuasion of the four bosses. However, it had to be said that in the end, he was still a second grade Elephant Ninefall Ancestral Immortal. He had made it through countless trials and hardships, and his intelligence was far beyond that of ordinary Ancestral Immortals. He quickly found a support point in his despair and temporarily held on to his collapsing state of mind.
"No, I won't go back. I would rather use this half a month of time to find a solution myself than to just dejectedly return and wait for my death. I don't believe that my life will be so unlucky as to be bitten to death by a small worm! Even if I really do die, I want to catch that Innate Celestial Immortal before I die and grind his bones to dust. He was the one who caused me to fall into this state! "
