A thick dead aura emanated from the body of the whale, and it was so strong that it turned into a substantial black gas, and it floated beside the body of the whale like a water plant.
Seeing this scene, even the well-informed Lin Yue was a little dumbfounded.
"How on earth does this creature survive...?"
It was difficult for him to imagine how this whale, which was hundreds of feet long and nearly half the width of the river, could survive in this river without any living creatures?
Suddenly, a chilling thought appeared in Lin Yue's mind.
Wouldn't the strong dead aura on this whale come from the creatures that originally existed in this river?
After all, according to the map recorded decades ago in the North Desert gathering place, there are still a large number of fierce beasts in this river, but now there is not a single one...
In addition, the death energy will only be born in places where a large number of living beings have died, which further verifies Lin Yue's guess.
The beasts that were originally recorded on the map are now likely to have turned into the bones in the belly of the whale, and its body has been assimilated and eroded by death energy because it devoured too many living beings.
All doubts have been answered, but Lin Yue's expression is not very good-looking.
Unexpectedly, such a terrifying creature appeared in the location he first chose.
Suddenly, Lin Yue noticed that the whale that had already swam in front of him seemed to be stagnant for a moment. Just as he frowned slightly, wisps of death energy actually emerged from the river under the control of the whale and headed towards him. Attack!
"It can actually control these dead auras subjectively...!" Lin Yue said in surprise.
Originally, he just thought that the death energy of the whale came from the beasts that it swallowed, but he didn't realize that this has been turned into an attack method...
Lin Yue bounced off the ground by the river on tiptoe, dodging tentacle-like wisps of death, and there was a slight ill will in his eyes.
Originally, he had given up the idea of choosing this place as a station, but the sudden attack of the whales made him think of another possibility.
If he cleans up this whale, doesn't it mean that there will be no other dangers in the river?
Although death qi will harm people's bodies and is not suitable for living, as long as all traces of death qi are removed after the battle, there will be no more threats near this river.
Thinking of this, Lin Yue took the time to rush towards the river. Facing the many dead auras attacking him, Lin Yue did not retreat but advanced, clenching the Emperor Sword in his hand and pulling out a sword shadow!
chi chi-
Whale Kun's strong dead aura was still not enough to see in front of Lin Yue, and was instantly destroyed by the sword intent he displayed and dissipated directly in mid-air.
And Lin Yue raised his hand and shot a milky white light ball, which was a spell containing the power of recovery, penetrated the surface of the river, and stabbed the body of the whale!
puff!
Not as expected by Lin Yue, since the whale Kun has mastered the use of death qi, it will naturally also fear the natural enemy of death qi, that is, the power of recovery.
Seeing that the power of recovery began to spread on the surface of the whale, dyeing it white, Lin Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It really works!"
The next moment, the huge body of the whale kun swelled up in the river, as if it had suffered great pain, and slapped the river water towards the shore continuously, causing a huge movement.
Lin Yue looked at all this with cold eyes, and his heart was not shocked.
Suddenly, Whale Kun's body trembled, and it stopped moving. The next moment, a dark phantom appeared from its body, and the death energy emanating from it made Lin Yue who felt it suddenly frowned.
"This death aura is several times stronger than before, what is the phantom that emerges from its body?" Lin Yue murmured solemnly.
Soon, the dark phantom was exposed, showing its original appearance.
Like a giant maggot, people unconsciously feel a sense of disgust, and at the same time, the body is still dripping with black water condensed with death energy.
And after the phantom of the maggot left Whale Kun's body, Whale Kun also turned into a corpse and remained motionless, and the original death energy disappeared.
Only then did Lin Yue realize that the source of the dead energy was not the whale, but the phantom of the maggot parasitic in its body, and it could be seen from its appearance that the dead energy had become an inseparable part of the phantom. .
swoosh—
Suddenly, countless tentacles of death aura that were somewhat similar to the previous ones appeared on the body of the maggot phantom, and they frantically slaughtered in the direction of Lin Yue.
The maggot phantom also lit up with two blood-red eyes, staring at Lin Yue.
Immediately, a powerful force of death descended from the sky, as if it had plunged Lin Yue into a quagmire, and his movements became sluggish.
"Cough cough..."
Lin Yue, who was choked by death, coughed a few times, and there was a hint of surprise in his heart. The strength of this maggot phantom was even stronger than the only two quasi emperors in this nameless domain. If he hadn't come in person today , I am afraid no one will be able to discover its true content.
Even if it can be found, it should have become a part of its death energy, and there is no chance to speak again.
But it's too simple to want his life just like this, Lin Yue's eyes instantly became cold!
buzzing—
A powerful sword force rose from his body, causing the surrounding space to vibrate slightly, and pieces of gravel rolled on the ground.
A sword force field seemed to form around Lin Yue.
swoosh—
The tentacles of death qi attacked, but when they approached within ten feet of Lin Yue's side, they seemed to be crushed, and instantly dissipated from the essence into the air.
sizzle-!
Seeing the scene in front of him, the phantom of the maggot seemed to generate great anger, the blood-red color in his eyes deepened a bit, and he made a frightening hissing sound.
The next moment, it lifted its whole body and drilled out of the river, smashing heavily towards Lin Yue's location.
Noticing that the death energy tentacles it differentiated could not cause damage to Lin Yue, it actually chose to use its body as a means of attack.
Noticing this scene, Lin Yue couldn't help but wonder, "Is this thing without intelligence?"
boom—
The huge body of the maggot phantom smashed in front of Lin Yue, setting off a violent wave of air, but it was not that its attack was deviated, but that the body within ten feet of Lin Yue was already like its tentacles. Directly annihilated in the sword.
At this time, Lin Yue has also roughly grasped its ability, and it is nothing more than using the dead energy to carry out various substantive attacks. This attack method can cause a dimensionality reduction blow to the practitioners with low strength, such as those who came here. If it weren't for Lin Yue, but instead the great protector and the lame old man, they could only complain a lot in the face of the maggot phantom's offensive, but there was no way to counter it.
But for someone like Lin Yue, whose original sword power was stronger than the death energy released by the phantom of maggots, it was not a difficult task to solve it.
