Supernatural Insight Eyes

Chapter 2157: Chapter 2158: Secrets of the Demon

In the pitch darkness, an abyss demon sat on a rock cultivating.

Its originally weak vital aura was gradually strengthening, and the wounds on its body started to heal.

Uncertain how much time had passed, this abyss demon opened its eyes.

It looked at its own body, touched the previously damaged wounds, now fully healed.

Phew...

Ye Qiu exhaled a long breath, fortunately, having entered the body of the abyss demon, he could continue cultivating and even absorb the abyss demon’s power, transforming it into his own.

"With this abyss demon body, even though it’s bone-chilling here, it’s not that unbearable for me."

"The body of this abyss demon is truly unique."

After expressing admiration for the benefits of incarnating into an abyss demon, Ye Qiu felt it was rather good; he could temporarily rely on the abyss demon’s power to recover slowly.

Moreover, this place beneath the abyss could be considered the stronghold of the abyss demons, appearing in this form, he wouldn’t be attacked.

"I just wonder if other abyss demons will notice I’m an anomaly." Ye Qiu felt he couldn’t be careless; currently, he was weak with only a sliver of soul power, and to recover, he could only rely on the body of this abyss demon.

Thus, he needed to be cautious to avoid being discovered by other abyss demons as an anomaly, which could be troublesome.

Of course, that’ll only be known when encountering other abyss demons; for now, relying on the abyss demon’s body, he absorbed the surrounding energy, having accumulated some power.

But to restore to his peak, it was still far off.

The cultivation method of abyss demons was divided into two types, one by absorbing the special energy beneath the abyss, which was slower, the other by mutual devouring and fighting, evolving to advance.

Around this place, there was only him as an abyss demon, and Ye Qiu didn’t want to resort to devouring; furthermore, if he had to devour other abyss demons, he needed time to adapt, which gave him a feeling of consuming his kind, something he couldn’t immediately adapt to.

In the pitch-dark abyss below, after cultivating for who knows how long, Ye Qiu felt he had reached the peak state of the abyss demon’s body.

He swung his fist.

Whoosh whoosh...

Hmm, swift and fierce, quite good, at least possessing power at the Void Breaking level.

However, this level of abyss demon belonged to the lowest tier, and even among ordinary abyss demons, it was the weakest, far from the king-level abyss demons.

But Ye Qiu wasn’t worried; with his Supreme Saint’s soul, evolving to king-level wouldn’t be difficult.

Currently, cultivation wasn’t much useful, Ye Qiu felt his demon body needed battle to stimulate evolution and breakthrough.

Swaying his half-meter-high body, Ye Qiu left here, planning to explore elsewhere.

After walking a hundred meters, the surroundings remained quiet, only the chill pervading everywhere; he extended an arm, with three fingers forming a hand, sharp claws appearing very sharp.

Touching an ice-covered boulder, he withdrew immediately.

Ye Qiu shivered, too cold, the moment he touched it, he felt his very soul was frozen.

Must keep away from these frost-covered stones.

Ye Qiu walked slowly, bit by bit, for several hours, without seeing a second abyss demon.

"Strange, speaking of which, there should be many abyss demons here." Ye Qiu wondered, it’s been several hours, not a single abyss demon was seen, not even a living creature.

Continuing onward.

One hour.

Three hours.

Five hours.

Ye Qiu didn’t know how long had passed until a shimmering white gleam appeared ahead, catching his gaze.

He quickened his pace, swiftly approaching the area emitting faint white light.

This area was large, Ye Qiu couldn’t see the end of it, he estimated it was at least as big as dozens of soccer fields.

Most notable was the vast stretch of land completely covered with football-sized spheres, densely packed, filling everywhere visible.

The dim white glow emanated from these spheres.

What is this?

Ye Qiu looked at this scene, his scalp tingled, the sheer number of these spheres was truly overwhelming, too many to count.

They lay quietly like eggs.

Ye Qiu watched for a moment, suddenly noticing some spheres were moving.

Crack crack...

Cracks began appearing, then a greenish thing jumped out.

Ye Qiu’s eyes instantly widened.

"This..."

He finally understood, these white spheres were eggs, hatching abyss demons.

He had unexpectedly arrived at the abyss demon birth site, witnessing firsthand the appearance of abyss demons.

The scene before his eyes was quite shocking to Ye Qiu; the appearance of abyss demons wasn’t detailed even in the ancient city’s records, and now, he knew the truth.

At this moment, Ye Qiu’s first thought was to smash all the unhatched abyss demon eggs.

However, as he was about to advance, he was suddenly flung away.

Bang.

Ye Qiu hit a rock and promptly got back up.

What happened?

He approached again cautiously, this time testing, until his arm extended slowly and an energy barrier emerged, blocking him.

"This power..."

Ye Qiu discovered that a mysterious power seemed to be protecting the demon eggs here, foiling his plan to destroy the eggs.

"Such a pity," Ye Qiu murmured, after testing earlier, he sensed this energy was strong, beyond his current level to break, even at his peak, unable to shatter this energy barrier.

This energy was somewhat akin to Rule Power but definitely more advanced.

It must exist to specifically protect these demon eggs.

Unable to destroy them, Ye Qiu had to abandon the idea; meanwhile, thousands of abyss demons had hatched and were all moving toward one direction.

"What’s over there?"

Ye Qiu looked, noticing all the newborn abyss demons moving in one direction, without mutual killing.

Feeling intrigued, he too headed that way, finding an exit that seemed to lead to a different place.

He attempted to attack the many young abyss demons within a meter’s distance but found it impossible; a barrier still blocked him.

Alright.

Ye Qiu gave up, this place was really bizarre.

Fortunately, the energy here did not prevent him from going through the exit; following the exit, Ye Qiu emerged.

The scenery before him changed accordingly.
