1171: C1171 Cicada Shedding Its Shell

C1171 Cicada Shedding Its Shell

Zhou Yan walked over to the corpse and reached out his hand to feel the corpse, wanting to see what was going on.

"Eh? It's actually a human body." Zhou Yan carefully examined it and quickly confirmed that this man was a human with the body of a cultivator.

Zhou Yan took a closer look and found that there were a few thin blood streaks on the corpse's neck. From these blood streaks, it seemed that the man had been killed by a sharp blade cutting his throat, and he hadn't been dead for long.

Looking at the wounds on the corpse, Zhou Yan suddenly thought: This man was killed by a Golden Winged Peng!

Thinking about it, Zhou Yan immediately guessed that this man must have been killed by the Golden Winged Peng while fighting it.

"Judging from the fact that this man's four limbs have been cut off, he probably won't be able to last long in the hands of the Golden Winged Peng."

Zhou Yan analyzed the situation carefully and then squatted down to carefully examine the man's limbs.

"These Golden Winged Peng's claws are really sharp!"

After Zhou Yan checked the wounds on the man's body, he found that all four of the man's limbs had been cut off by sharp claws. Even an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to do such a thing, which was enough to prove how powerful the Golden Winged Peng was.

"This is... the Golden Cicada Shedding Skin."

After Zhou Yan carefully examined the wounds on the man's limbs, he immediately discovered that there was something strange about the man. His wounds were actually covered with the shed fur of a golden cicada, which made Zhou Yan very confused. At the same time, he also discovered that this man was not ordinary. This man's aura was completely different from that of an ordinary human's. The cold aura emitted from his body was even denser, and could even be compared to the cold aura released from Zhou Yan's body.

Seeing that the man's body was covered in the fur of a cicada shedding its skin, Zhou Yan immediately guessed, "Could it be that this man also ate the Cicada Shedding Fruit?"

"Humph! Whether or not you ate the Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit, your body had been transformed by the Cicada Shedding Carapace and was no longer suitable for cultivation. Thus, you were only left with half a broken body. This way, you would not be able to continue your cultivation, so you could only become nourishment for the Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit. This way, the Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit would have a new food, which was to absorb your body. "

"Moreover, this Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit is a special kind of spiritual grass. It can only survive in a particularly dangerous cave. So, we have to quickly find the location of this Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit. Otherwise, if it is snatched away by other Immortal Cultivators, we won't be able to find it. "

Xiao Xi looked at Zhou Yan and said. Zhou Yan nodded after hearing that. He then stood up and prepared to leave this place.

"Swoosh!"

Just as Zhou Yan was about to leave, he suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from behind him. Zhou Yan immediately reacted and quickly twisted his body to avoid the attack from behind.

"* Boom! *"

Right at this moment, the huge rock that Zhou Yan was standing on exploded, producing a loud sound that scared Zhou Yan. He hurriedly turned around to take a look, only to discover that a large tree behind him had also been affected by the explosion. It directly exploded, causing branches to fly everywhere and gravel to fly everywhere.

"What an explosion!"

Zhou Yan looked at the big tree that he was standing on just now, which had been blasted into powder, and exclaimed in his heart. The power of this explosion was too strong. Such a large scale explosion, what kind of Demonic Beast was it?

"It seems like there are a large number of Demonic Beasts here. Let's hurry up and leave this place so as to avoid trouble."

Zhou Yan thought warily in his heart, and immediately prepared to walk deeper into the forest. He wanted to find the Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit as soon as possible. Only by finding the Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit could he refine the Cicada Shedding Carapace Pill to save Han Shiyu. Otherwise, Han Shiyu would probably die here.

Zhou Yan quickly returned the way he came from and walked into the forest. After walking for a distance, Zhou Yan stopped and looked around. Seeing that there was no danger, Zhou Yan quickly walked towards an ancient tree that was hundreds of meters tall.

"* Roar! *"

Not long after Zhou Yan walked in, he immediately heard a furious roar, and immediately after, Zhou Yan saw a large Demonic Beast jump out from behind the ancient tree, and quickly charged towards Zhou Yan. This Demonic Beast was around two to three hundred meters tall, its entire body was covered in black and white stripes, and a pair of golden wings grew on top of its head. Its eyes were glowing with a green light, looking extremely terrifying.

"Whew!"

Zhou Yan quickly dodged one of the Demonic Beast's bite, but the Demonic Beast seemed to know that Zhou Yan would dodge. In an instant, it pounced towards Zhou Yan once again, opened its huge mouth, revealed its sharp fangs, and bit down fiercely at Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan looked at the Demonic Beast's attack and immediately used the Wind Lightning Escape Technique. He instantly disappeared from where he was and teleported out, dodging the attack of the ferocious Demonic Beast.

"Roar!"

Just as Zhou Yan dodged the Demonic Beast's attack, a furious roar suddenly sounded out. Following that, Zhou Yan saw the huge ancient tree collapse, and the figure of a huge Demonic Beast slowly walked out from the huge ruins.2

"Hiss hiss ~!"

It was a three-meter long, light purple in color, and its entire body was covered in sharp scales. It looked extremely ferocious, and its aura was extremely powerful. At a glance, one could tell that it was not an ordinary Demonic Beast, but a mutated Demon Dragon!

"Roar!"

Seeing that its attack did not injure Zhou Yan, the mutated Demon Dragon instantly became furious. Letting out a furious roar, it waved its thick claws and pounced towards Zhou Yan.

"* Swoosh! *"

Seeing the movements of the Demon Dragon, Zhou Yan was secretly shocked in his heart, because the movements of the Demon Dragon just now were extremely agile, surpassing any kind of Demonic Beast that Zhou Yan had ever known. Its speed was not any slower than Zhou Yan's Wind Attribute Devil Beast. This was a Demonic Beast that had reached the middle stage of the Golden Core Stage, and Zhou Yan could tell that this Demonic Beast's cultivation was much stronger than the previous Demonic Beasts. It should be the most powerful Demonic Beast here.

"As expected of the Golden Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit spat out by the Golden Silkworm. It is indeed extraordinary, to be able to cultivate such a powerful Demonic Beast. However, although these Demonic Beasts are powerful, they can't compare to me, so the Golden Cicada Shedding Carapace Fruit here is useless to me. "

Zhou Yan thought to himself as he prepared to bypass the demon dragon and leave this place.

"* Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing that Zhou Yan wanted to escape, the Demon Dragon immediately became violent. It let out another furious roar, and then suddenly attacked Zhou Yan again.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yan secretly sneered in his heart, and then directly punched towards the Demon Dragon's head.

Zhou Yan's punch directly sent the Demon Dragon flying, and it heavily fell to the ground. Zhou Yan's attack directly caused the Demonic Beast to faint. Zhou Yan immediately took out a dagger and cut open the Demonic Beast's neck, then placed the Demonic Beast blood into a jade bottle.
