Chapter 280 Black Water Lake

The three forks correspond to different directions.

Kunze plunged into the middle road and could vaguely see that the road led upwards.

The road on the right has a unique smell of black water, which attracts You Huan's attention.

However, the road on the left attracted him the most.

Even the vague sensation coming from the road on the left caused him to pause for a moment.

During this pause, Kunze had already run an unknown distance.

He simply stopped, carefully sensed the intersection, and then walked to the left.

Judging from the intuition, the road in the middle is probably the path leading to where "God" lives.

The one on the right may be related to the high priest.

Both of these places are obviously extremely important.

If he were to look for it on his own, he might not be able to find the place because the route here is very tortuous.

So we also have to thank the Pure High Priest Kunze. He wanted to escape to the temple, so he led the way for You Huan.

But Heishui's life instinct told him that the path on the left was the best choice for him.

For this choice, he can give up the prey he is chasing.

Speaking of prey.

He had killed so many black water creatures and the high priest before, and he didn't have time to collect most of them.

Especially the body of the red high priest.

However, he was not sure about the effect of [Gene Completion] on individuals with obvious mutations caused by this black water.

His instinct told him that the highly mutated black water was not the path he was currently taking.

He hunted Kunze mainly to study the eye.

That unique ability to frighten people was still extremely effective even after being protected by his spiritual power.

It will activate an indescribable sense of fear, similar to the instinct of life when encountering something incomprehensible.

This ability is truly unique.

You Huan now abandoned this interesting eye and walked forward along the left passage.

The passage consists of downward sloping steps, the color of which changes from platinum at first to gradually fades into deep shadows.

Continuing to descend, he estimated that the road would lead all the way to the bottom of the pyramid.

What was hidden beneath the pyramid...it aroused his interest more and more.

But obviously the road will not be smooth.

Doors appeared one after another in front of him, as if guarding something deeper.

However, he was prepared.

The tail came to the door with an arm covered with scarlet bones.

This was the arm he had cut off from the red high priest.

The high priestess is so powerful, she should be one of the best figures in the pyramid. If her flesh and blood cannot pass the verification of the door, then he can only choose to attack by force.

Fortunately, things worked out for the best.

The arm directly turned into a key and inserted into the fleshy pit in the center of the gate.

The surface of the gate with biomass squirmed slightly, and the pit in the middle shrank, fitting the entire arm tightly.

He turned his arm, and the door opened with a click from the inside.

Each of the following doors can be opened in this way, but each door has a slightly different appearance and style, seemingly for different defensive measures.

Until every door was opened, he went deep into the underground.

All the noise in the pyramid, the sound of the ambitious white giants attacking the pyramid, and the noise inside the temple were all isolated outside.

Only the light sound of his footsteps echoed.

"Tick-tock—"

Until one moment, he heard the sound of some slightly sticky liquid dripping.

"Tick-tock."

Go through the last door and arrive at the bottom of the pyramid and the holy city.

Deep underground of an entire civilization.

A lake appeared in front of him, a black water lake!

The sticky black water surged slightly in this vast and dim underground space. The surface of the lake was like a black mirror, reflecting the outline of You Huan as he approached.

In addition to this endless black water lake, there are also some black containers and strange devices on the lakeside, and no one knows what they are used for.

As soon as we arrived here, the strong smell of black water coming from the lake instantly obscured everything.

In You Huan's perception, it seemed that the only thing left in the world was the black water in front of him.

A strong desire called him into the lake.

It was like a traveler who had been traveling in the desert for several months seeing sweet, clear water for the first time.

The quality of the black water here...is probably higher than any black water he has seen before!

But there doesn't seem to be any guard here, and "God" is not here either.

Why is there such a black water lake here?

You Huan stood by the lake, thinking, and did not immediately touch the black water. Instead, he checked his injuries.

The injuries on his body were caused by the two high priests.

The first type of wound is a red erosion on the outside of the sickle.

The bright red and black water from Tumonk still hadn't dissipated, lingering on his exoskeleton like a bone cancer.

You can see the holes in the exoskeleton slowly expanding under their influence.

In addition, this black water was still absorbing the vitality in his body through the exoskeleton.

The injuries caused by the Pure High Priest Kunze were systemic, and the white light radiation had a certain degree of erosion on the exoskeleton throughout the body.

If you look at it under a microscope, you'll see that his exoskeleton has become fairly uniformly thinner by about 0.5mm.

Cells in the body are also damaged to varying degrees.

The combination of the two injuries caused him to feel weak immediately after he calmed down.

Fortunately, the black water life has extremely strong self-healing ability, especially since it has absorbed so many genes.

Internal injuries heal quickly, but the exoskeleton grows and recovers a little slower.

He couldn't expel the red black water.

This is a hassle.

But what is more important right now is to replenish your physical strength.

Although he did not collect many of the monsters he killed along the way, he still used space cards to take away a few that he liked.

He pulled one of the monsters out of the space card, and it looked a lot like the classic Alien, except that its skull was a little more pointed.

Eat quickly and gain 72 evolution points.

There are many enemies in this place, some of them are strong, but the rewards are also rich. If you take out a black water life at random, the evolution points provided will probably start at 60.

He ate another black water creature and gained 75 evolution points. Now his level progress becomes:

[Level: Lv.7 (386/640)]

The evolution point requirement for level 7 to level 8 is more than halfway completed.

When he took out the third black water life.

It seemed to be stimulated by the external black water smell.

The tranquil and vast black water lake in front of him suddenly began to surge with violent waves.

When the ripples became intense enough, a pitch-black spine suddenly cut through the black water and emerged from under the lake.

The first one, the second one...

One figure after another emerged from under the lake!

The black water dripped down both sides of the back and rolled back into the lake like a bead curtain.

One after another, pitch-black water creatures emerged from the lake and slowly approached You Huan.

After leaving the Black Water Lake, You Huan's blood relatives could sense their aura gradually becoming clearer.

The breath fluctuations of each one are probably more powerful than any black water life he has ever seen anywhere!

Looking at their appearance, they are very different from ordinary black water life.

It was completely black without a trace of other colors, consistent with the black water in the lake.

The shell is in a state between the exoskeleton and the gelatinous skin, with a cold metallic glow but also a hint of toughness. There are many holes or pipes on it, with black water flowing out.

It does not have the spikes, long tail, skull and other structures of conventional black water life, and is also different from the more primitive and animal-like black water life.

The details of both the face and body were quite blurry, as if they had melted into the black water that kept flowing out of the body.

Until the first monster that approached You Huan suddenly jumped up, and a huge mouth suddenly popped out from its head, splitting into four petals like a big flower, each petal was covered with sharp teeth, and it bit towards You Huan!

You Huan, who was well prepared, swung his sickle wing, a cold light flashed, and it cut directly into the petal-like big mouth.

However, the extremely tough texture of the meat makes it impossible to cut the sickle wing completely.

At this time, the second monster also arrived, with long and thin limbs with sticky black water sticking out.

However, You Huan's focus at this time was on himself.

He discovered that the black water splashed from the monsters was instantly annihilated after it touched the red black water lingering on his exoskeleton.
