Looking at the long black worm picked out from the blue-eyed green tiger's body, Liang Yan and Wu Xin's expressions changed slightly.

"No wonder my 'Demon Sealing Technique' doesn't work on it. It turns out that its center and sea of ​​consciousness are not in the head at all, but on the spine!"

Wuxin suddenly realized it, and followed the same pattern, using the magic knife to cut open the back of the Sky-Drilling Rat, and then using the tip of the knife to pick out a long black worm from the spine of the Sky-Drilling Rat.

Without this insect, the sky-boring rat will age at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Its skin was shriveled and sunken downwards, and soon it turned into the appearance of skin and bones. Then it was gently blown by the surrounding wind and sand, and its flesh, flesh and skin were turned into powder, leaving only a pile of white bones in place.

At this moment, both the Sky-Drilling Rat and the Blue-Eyed Green Tiger were no different from the spiritual beasts they had seen before.

Seeing this strange scene, Liang Yan and Wu Xin's expressions became very solemn.

The two of them each let go of their consciousness and carefully examined the long black insect they had picked out.

"It seems that the reason why these monster beasts have survived to this day is this kind of insect. What kind of existence is this? It can actually allow the sky-drilling rat and the blue-eyed green tiger to survive for so many years, and they can also use their own magical powers.

"Liang Yan murmured to himself while observing the long black insect on the tip of the knife.

Before he could finish speaking, Wu Xin beside him suddenly exclaimed:

"This insect actually has real demon energy in its body!"

"Um?"

Liang Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Wu Xin beside him.

"True demonic energy? Are you sure?"

"Can't be wrong!"

Wu Xin answered firmly and decisively.

"This is definitely not an insect beast from your human race, but from our demon race. It's just that this true demonic energy is very weak and you can't detect it."

"Do you know the heel and legs of this insect?" Liang Yan asked.

"Well, I have indeed never seen this kind of insect, but judging from the real demonic energy contained in its body, it seems."

Wu Xin thought about it for a while, and finally said slowly: "It seems to have some connection with our Yu Clan!"

"That's weird!"

After hearing Wu Xin's words, Liang Yan showed a strange look on his face, and said in deep thought: "This is the ruins of Tianji Pavilion, a great Confucian sect, how come there are insects and beasts from the True Demon Clan?"

Wuxin thought for a while and said: "Tianji Pavilion is an ancient Confucian sect and has nothing to do with our demon clan. However, this sect has been destroyed for many years. Maybe some changes happened later that we can't imagine."

"Um."

Liang Yan nodded and looked at the black long insect in front of him again.

The insect was still twisting and struggling on his sword, as if it wanted to escape and burrow into a new host.

"This thing is a scourge and cannot be left here."

Liang Yan didn't hesitate, he pinched the sword technique in his hand, and the sword light of the Purple Thunder Sword Pill surged, instantly smashing the long black worm into pieces.

He looked at it unintentionally and without hesitation, the demonic energy rolled around and quickly turned the strange insect on the tip of the knife into a pool of blood.

After killing these two strange insects, Liang Yan pondered for a moment and then drew his sword again!

The targets this time are the five-color peacocks, double-faced ghost vultures, fish-scale beasts, devil wind dragons and purple electric minks around them.

Under the control of Liang Yan's sword technique, the purple thunder sword light was like a galloping thunder dragon, drawing a large circle in the field, and the sword light shrouded all five monsters in it.

Unlike the Sky-Drilling Rat and the Blue-Eyed Green Tiger, the strength of these five monsters is not strong, only equivalent to the level of the human race's Tongxuan Realm. Moreover, they have no self-awareness and only react when the sword light approaches.

Each of the five monster beasts made a weird cry and attacked the surroundings indiscriminately. However, Liang Yan didn't give them a chance at all. He just broke the spines of these five monster beasts at the same time with just one sword!

After the cervical vertebrae were broken, unexpectedly, no strange insects appeared, but a pool of dark mud slid out, which also exuded a foul smell.

As the mud slid out, the five-headed monsters, including the five-color peacock, the double-faced ghost vulture, and the fish-scale beast, also aged rapidly like the previous Sky-Drilling Rat, turning into skin and bones, and then their flesh and blood turned into dust.

, only a pile of bones is left.

Seeing this scene, Liang Yan's eyes showed a thoughtful look.

After a moment, he slowly said: "It seems that the reason why these monster beasts can survive for so long depends on some kind of external force, but this kind of external force also has levels. The black mud is obviously one level lower, and it can only guarantee

The body is immortal, but it has no self-awareness and is wandering here in a muddle. The black monster is of a slightly higher level. The host can act independently and has a certain amount of consciousness to know how to set up an ambush to attack us."

After listening to Liang Yan's analysis, Wu Xin nodded and agreed: "You are right. This unknown power is also divided into levels. I don't know if the Sky-Drilling Rat and the Blue-Eyed Green Tiger are the highest level. If they are above them,

There are even more powerful ones, and it will be very difficult for us to deal with them."

"What you said is not impossible."

Liang Yan's face was solemn, he looked around and said slowly: "This level is more dangerous than I imagined. Judging from the characteristics of this level of maze, the Tianji Pavilion disciples who were able to get here back then were no less than the top ten."

The level of Tianjiao! Now these monsters have undergone unknown changes, and the danger we face may be even greater than that of the Tianji Pavilion disciples back then. Do you think we should continue?"

After listening to Liang Yan's question, Wu Xin was silent for a moment and suddenly laughed.

"Actually, I have already guessed that this trip will not be that simple. Where there are opportunities, there are risks, which cannot be avoided. As long as the two of us are together, I think no matter how big the risk is, we can overcome it." Wuxin looked at Liang

Yan Yan's eyes slowly spoke.

"It seems that you have made up your mind." Liang Yan glanced at her, and the solemn look on his face gradually faded.

"Why don't you?"

Wu Xin smiled slightly, pushed a strand of hair behind her ear, and then reached out to hold Liang Yan's hand.

"let's go."

"Um"

Liang Yan was in a very calm mood at this time. He must break into the Thousand Magic Tower, and some risks would not scare him away. What's more, Wu Xin was with him now, which gave him a little more confidence.

Holding Wu Xin's hand tightly, Liang Yan didn't hesitate at all, and the two of them walked towards the next room together.

The rest of the trip went very smoothly.

Liang Yan and Wu Xin walked through more than a dozen rooms without encountering much danger.

There are only some broken mechanisms left in these rooms. Although you can occasionally encounter a few monsters, they are just like the five-colored peacocks and double-faced ghost vultures. They just wander around in the same place with no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

Although there was no danger, both of them knew that they had entered the depths of the maze, so they were very alert and ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

In this way, the two passed through a passage again and came to a new room.

This room is different from the previous ones. There is a turquoise pond in the middle of the room. The road is paved with white jade bricks under the feet. The surrounding walls are glowing with a faint golden light. There are many crisscross scratches on the wall. It looks like it was

The man cut it with a sharp sword.

However, none of this attracted Liang Yan and Wu Xin's eyes, because at this moment, their attention was focused on the back of the pond.

I saw a tall figure covered in darkness, with his back to them, sitting cross-legged on the bank of the pond.

This is not the back of a person, but a monster.

Liang Yan did not act rashly because he could clearly feel that this monster was different from the ones he had encountered before!

The two were silent for a moment. Suddenly, a sigh came from the front, and then a deep voice slowly spoke:

"After so many years, someone finally came here."

The voice was low and somewhat desolate.

Liang Yan and Wu Xin looked at each other, and both saw a trace of doubt in each other's eyes.

This monster in front of me is unusual!

Although the Sky-Drilling Rat and Blue-Eyed Green Tiger that they encountered before were able to survive, their minds had been distorted and they had turned into monsters, which was considered a price for their "immortality".

But the monster in front of me is still conscious and can even speak, which is a bit incredible.

"Who are you? Are you the gatekeeper on this level?" Liang Yan asked tentatively.

After hearing this, the black figure sighed and said: "You said that puppet? Ever since the change occurred on this floor, he doesn't know where he has been hiding. This floor has long been without a gatekeeper. As long as you get out of the maze,

You can enter the next level.”

After hearing the other party's answer, Liang Yan was not happy that the guard puppet was away, but his face became serious.

"Fellow Taoist, what happened on this level?"

Facing this monster with unknown strength, Liang Yan did not neglect him, but treated him as a "fellow Taoist".

After hearing this, the monster beast did not answer immediately, but slowly turned around and revealed its face.

What I saw was a black ape with a total of eight arms. Its face was already old and its whole body was skinny.

"You want to know what happens on this level?"

The old ape glanced over, and a flash of light suddenly burst out from his cloudy old eyes.

"It's not impossible to tell you, but you have to agree to a condition first." The old ape said slowly.

"What conditions?" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Simple!" The old ape suddenly grinned, showing his missing teeth, and asked: "If I read correctly, you should be a human sword cultivator, right?"

After hearing this, Liang Yan's expression moved slightly, and he thought secretly: "It's strange that my four sword pills are all in the Taixu Gourd at this time. It can be said that I am isolated from the world, and there is no trace of breath leaking at all. How does this monster ape know that I am
