Chapter 351: Chapter 335 The Living Fossil that Lived from Ancient Times to the Present

After a moment, Wang Zijia found a giant three-meter radius demon, which was originally a man-eating Tai Sui that had fallen into devil possession, now resembling a huge wriggling creature stitched together from flesh and blood. Decisively, Wang Zijia chose to temporarily retreat.

Such a creature couldn’t be dealt with in a short time, fighting it easily attracted a siege from other demons.

Having changed his direction, Wang Zijia continued his search.

And so, Wang Zijia began his relentless hunting.

In moments, he had hunted down five demons. He was able to extract sixty to seventy thousand from each weaker one and a hundred thousand from the stronger ones.

"Value +398761!"

Dao cultivation: Three hundred years (2 million/2 million)

Spiritual Roots: Special Earth Blood Spiritual Root (Medium grade 100,000/500,000)

Spell Chapter: Fake Pill Symbol Kind Chapter (Beginner 100,000/200,000)

His cultivation had completely reached the peak of the Sacrificial Wine, and his mana was even five times more concentrated than an ordinary Sacrificial Wine’s peak.

Combined with the fake pill and Wang Zijia’s solid foundation, he was fully comparable to a monk who had just entered the Perfected Realm!

The Five Ghosts also grew incredibly fast, their food had suddenly increased from ordinary mortal demons to the Perfected Realm, their growth was evident.

Name: Big Baby (Ghost Baby)

Cultivation: Late Stage Sacrificial Wine

Evil Source: ordinary

Dao cultivation: one hundred and fifty years (1.55 million/2 million)

Affiliation: Detrimental Mutation Summoning Creatures

Talent: Ghost Child Bewitching (second grade), Summoned God Child

Their growth was astonishing, considering they had only just ascended not long before.

Wang Zijia didn’t stop; with his strength reaching the initial stage of the True Human Realm, he and the Five Ghosts found hunting even easier.

He began to target the remaining dozen or so noticeably trickier demons that were left after his selection.

"Value +80,000!"

"Value +70,000!"

"Value +100,000!"

"..."

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

In those five days, Wang Zijia killed fifteen of the sixteen remaining demons in the core area all at once by various means.

Aside from the very center, the entire Time Forbidden Area was cleaned up by Wang Zijia, and the harvest was astonishing.

His earnings valued around 1.2 million; besides the one hundred thousand he stacked on the Spell Chapter, the rest was all stacked on his Spiritual Roots, which elevated them to Top-grade.

The surplus was saved up, to be used later when he needed to condense the Spell Chapter and the Rune Seed for his breakthrough in cultivation.

Dao cultivation: Three hundred years (2 million/2 million)

Spiritual Roots: Special Earth Blood Spiritual Root (Top-grade 1.2 million/500,000)

Spell Chapter: Fake Pill Symbol Kind Chapter (Advanced 200,000/500,000)

Previously, the condensation of the second Dao foundation consumed eight hundred thousand value points, so he had to prepare at least one million for his own Dao foundation. At present, his Spiritual Roots were a bit short, excluding the five hundred thousand needed to reach the Top-grade.

This wasn’t urgent; after he dealt with that central Evil Ghost and moved on to the remaining two spiritual objects for promotion, he could accumulate the needed amount slowly!

While thinking about this, Wang Zijia walked toward the core area.

...

The reason why Wang Zijia had left this central demon until last without any exploration was because this beast may have existed since the End of Dharma Era.

According to the data he had received, it was found that there were some records in the personal biography of Qu Yuquan, a disciple of Wanyu from the Qinglian Realm.

The place where he showed up was once attacked by a mad insect. Because he had just arrived in the Lower Realm and had just undergone unprotected long-distance transmission, he was seriously injured and his consciousness was somewhat chaotic.

Therefore, he hurriedly retreated and left the Time Forbidden Area, which was not yet strongly sealed.

When he had barely finished healing and figured out where he was and wanted to go back, his cultivation had unknowingly dropped out of Sacrificial Wine, so he was unable to break through the forbidden area.

According to his later guesses, this worm might be an ancient exotic species: the Kongming Cicada, a high-level creature that feeds on spatial energy.

Because he regretted it later, had he genuinely killed the Kongming Cicada earlier and acquired the spiritual crystal bred in it, he might not have been trapped in the Qinglian Realm for hundreds of years. Therefore, it appeared in many of his biographies.

After Wang Zijia speculated that this was where the creature came from, he did not recklessly venture further into the core area.

...

While his thoughts flickered, Wang Zijia quietly approached the core of the forbidden area.

As he moved forward, a thick spatial energy gradually appeared on the surrounding dilapidated buildings, even after unknown years of erosion and after so many years of the End of Dharma, such intense fluctuations still remained.

This made it apparent that the materials used during construction were of extremely advanced quality.

Gradually, a huge ring structure, towering hundreds of meters high, appeared in Wang Zijia’s field of view.

At the core of the forbidden area, amidst countless ruined buildings, there was a huge altar-like high platform.

An unusual ring structure stood on the platform, covered in runes. Inside the ring, there were small antler-like antennas, emitting silver threads towards the center of the ring.

Traces of spatial energy were emitted by the antennas, intersecting at the center.

Many antennas were broken or lost their function, causing the originally huge silver space gate to turn into a massive silver net.

Some areas still had intact antennas, so on the silver net, there were segments or large or small silver light spots, appearing as though they could still facilitate teleportation.

Overall, it looked like an interstellar teleportation gate from a science fiction movie in a previous life, very impressive.

At the base of the ring, on the altar above the high platform, lay a deformed monster.

The whole thing vaguely resembled a cicada, but its pattern had been replaced by numerous closed eyes. It had a gigantic figure, with a height in the range of meters, and its insect legs all shone with a cold luster. They were all spider legs.
