Chapter 64 Myelophagous Worm

After resting for more than an hour, Chu Jun stood up with Zhao Yu's help. He tried to walk a few steps and found that there was no major problem. Chu Jun took out a moonstone and threw it upwards. The moonstone that emitted a gentle white light rose nearly twenty meters before it touched the cave top. Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly let out a fluke. It was truly a miracle that he had fallen from a height of more than twenty meters and was actually fine. Ever since Chu Jun had cultivated the Blazing Sun Art and the Cold Moon Art, the process of cultivating was the process of repeatedly tempering his body with the essence of the sun and moon. The strength and toughness of his body were much stronger than those of an Immortal Cultivator of the same level.

Judging from the height of the cave top, this should be a huge cave. Chu Jun and Zhao Yu held the moonstone and fumbled forward in the pitch-black cave. From time to time, they could see the bones lying on the ground. As long as they lightly touched it, they would shatter to the ground. It seemed that they had died quite a long time ago.

Chu Jun injected a small amount of crescent divine power into the moonstone. He didn't expect that the moonstone would actually become exceptionally bright. It was like a bright moon that illuminated a radius of a hundred meters. Chu Jun couldn't help but be shocked. Zhao Yu looked at the moonstone in Chu Jun's hand in surprise and asked, "What's going on?"

Chu Jun shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's just a small amount of Spiritual Energy being injected into it!"

Zhao Yu also tried to inject a small amount of Spiritual Energy into the Lunar Stone in her hand, but the Lunar Stone did not react at all. She could not help but frown and look at Chu Jun. Chu Jun took the moonstone in her hand and also injected new moon divine power into it. The moonstone instantly lit up, and the gentle moonlight shone in all directions, illuminating the surroundings even more brilliantly.

"Ah!" Zhao Yu covered her mouth and let out a soft cry. Yan Shui's blurry eyes were filled with surprise and confusion.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Perhaps it's related to the cultivation method I cultivated!"

Zhao Yu's expression was a little complicated. An undetectable worry flashed through his eyes as he said softly, " Chu Jun , is your spiritual energy related to the moon?"

Chu Jun 's heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, he woke up. Shen Xiaobao said that the demon race cultivated by absorbing the Sun Moon Essence Plant Yuan Qi. Yu'er wouldn't think that I am a demon race, right?

"Yu'er, you don't think I'm a demon, do you?" Chu Jun asked straightforwardly, in case there was a gap between the two of them due to the lack of communication. This was the last thing Chu Jun wanted to see.

Zhao Yuqing pursed her cherry lips and shook her head. Chu Jun couldn't help but say anxiously, "Yu'er, look at my ears. Didn't Little Treasure say that the demon race's ears are a bit sharp?"

Seeing Chu Jun 's anxious appearance, Zhao Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud. Then, as expected, she carefully studied Chu Jun 's ears for a while and nodded, "It's really a bit sharp!"

"No way, is it really a bit sharp?" Chu Jun's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his ears would sharpen when he cultivated the demon race's cultivation technique? However, Chu Jun soon caught a glimpse of a sliver of narrowness in Zhao Yu's eyes, and he instantly came to a realization.

"Alright, you're playing tricks on me!" Chu Jun wrapped his arms around Zhao Yu and scratched his tempting waist. Zhao Yu giggled and wriggled in Chu Jun's arms. The two soft rubbing balls in front of his chest caused Chu Jun's lower abdomen to heat up. Naturally, the thing below reacted. Zhao Yu suddenly pushed Chu Jun away with a flushed face. He glanced at the part that was erected somewhere and said, "You … damn it!"

Chu Jun scratched his head awkwardly and concealed, "Let's see if you still dare to play tricks on me!"

Zhao Yu's top-grade jade-like face was flushed red, and her bright eyes were filled with water. She gave Chu Jun a tender look and snorted, "Who told you to hide something from me? I'm not happy!"

Chu Jun naturally understood Zhao Yu's deep affection for him. If he knew that the other party had something to hide, he would feel uncomfortable in his heart. Chu Jun grabbed Zhao Yu's hand and sincerely said, "Yu'er, I really can't tell you about the cultivation technique. The person who taught me the cultivation technique strictly ordered that this matter should not be leaked to anyone else!"

Zhao Yu nodded and said gently, "I'm not angry. I don't allow my disciples to pass on my techniques. I understand!"

Chu Jun held Zhao Yuqing in his arms and kissed his smooth forehead, "Yu'er, thank you for trusting me!"

"Idiot, how can I not trust you!" Zhao Yu said softly.

Chu Jun chuckled and said, "Then you don't think I'm a demon, do you?"

Zhao Yu looked up at Chu Jun affectionately and said faintly, "Even if you are a demon, Zhao Yu has already recognized your enemy in this lifetime!"

Chu Jun hugged Zhao Yu tightly into his embrace, as if he wanted to squeeze this jade person into his body. He bit her eardrums and whispered, "Yu'er!"

Zhao Yufang's heart trembled slightly. Her pretty face was flushed, and her pretty face was tightly pressed against Chu Jun 's neck. The knot in Chu Jun 's heart was finally opened, and the stone in Chu Jun 's heart was also lowered.

The two of them waited for a while before reluctantly parting. Zhao Yu's cherry lips became even redder and slightly swollen. It was a good deed done by a greedy animal. Chu Jun smashed his numb tongue endlessly. Zhao Yu rolled her eyes at him in embarrassment, her tender white neck still showing a string of kiss marks.

The moonstone illuminated the entire cave. At this moment, the two of them finally saw the entire cave clearly. This cave was nearly a hundred meters in radius, and the top of the cave was about twenty meters tall. There were messy skeletons everywhere. Judging from the pile of skeletons, there were at least ten thousand of them. It was truly a typical mass grave. Even though he had seen too many skeletons along the way, at this moment, thousands of skeletons were stacked there, which still had a strong impact on his vision.

"What exactly happened here?" Zhao Yu said in shock.

Chu Jun bent down and picked up a rusted dagger. Zhao Yu softly said, "This dagger seems to be a standard magic treasure of the Lie Fa Sect!"

Zhao Yu took the short saber and carefully examined it for a while before shaking his head, "It seems like it's not true. The Liefa Sect's saber will be engraved with a flame mark!"

Chu Jun took out the black iron sword and scraped away the rust on the dagger. He discovered that there were indeed no flame marks on the dagger's body.

"Let's forget about this for now. Let's quickly find out if there's a way out!" Zhao Yu said softly.

Chu Jun nodded and scanned his surroundings. He discovered that this big hole was actually sealed. Other than the hole at the top, there was no other exit. It wasn't impossible for him to leave through the entrance of the cave and return the same way. However, when he thought of the countless skeletal soldiers outside, Chu Jun's scalp went numb.

"Let's look again. Perhaps there are other caves or hidden doors!" Zhao Yu said.

Thus, the two of them each took a moonstone and carefully examined the cave walls around the cave.

At this moment, the moonstone's light dimmed. Chu Jun injected a new moon divine power into it. The moonstone immediately lit up again. Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly ask, "Since the moonstone can match the new moon divine power, shouldn't I use the moonstone to specially forge a flying sword?"

As Chu Jun pondered, he knocked on the cave wall to see if there were any hidden doors.

Kacha!

A skeleton was accidentally crushed by Chu Jun. Two thumb-sized objects crawled out of the leg bones and waved their tongs, squeaking as they pounced towards Chu Jun's thigh. Chu Jun frowned. He raised his foot and stepped down fiercely. When he removed his foot, he was surprised to discover that the two fecal shell roaches weren't crushed. Instead, they launched an even fiercer attack.

"Eh!" Chu Jun stepped on it again, and the crescent moon shen power activated to crush it a few times.

Peng peng peng, the two insects immediately exploded, white juice splashing everywhere. Chu Jun didn't expect it to be so loud, so he couldn't help but be shocked.

"What happened?" Zhao Yu heard the commotion and quickly ran over.

Chu Jun pointed at the "shit shell roach" that had been trampled on the ground and shrugged, "Two bugs, they actually exploded so loudly!"

When Zhao Yu saw the worm's expression suddenly change slightly, he squatted down and carefully examined it. Chu Jun sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "Yu'er, is this worm strange?"

Zhao Yu stood up with a pale face. Chu Jun could see a trace of fear in her bright eyes. He hurriedly said, "What's wrong? Isn't it just two insects?"

"This is a medullary-eating insect, an evil insect that devours bone marrow!" Zhao Yu said softly. Jiao Qu was actually trembling slightly.

Chu Jun raised his sword-like eyebrows and comforted, "What's so scary about that …!" Chu Jun's voice changed before he could finish speaking.

Rustle rustle rustle rustle!

It was like a drizzle hitting a bamboo leaf, but this voice was not beautiful and romantic at all, but terrifying, it was a life-threatening song!

Black Medullarians crawled out from beneath the bones. The rustling sound was the sound of countless Medullarians crawling together. These medullary-eating insects were like black torrents, surging towards Chu Jun and Zhao Yu.

Chu Jun 's expression changed drastically. In his previous life, when he was training in the tropical jungle, he had encountered an ant colony. The terrifying scene from that time was still vivid in his mind. No animal can survive on the ground where the colony passes. Even a ferocious lion will be devoured in an instant. No matter how strong you are, you will only be able to escape when you encounter the colony. These little creatures cannot withstand a single blow alone, but God cannot challenge their sharpness when millions of them are gathered together.

"Fire!" A word appeared in Chu Jun 's mind. At this moment, fire was the best defensive measure.

Buzz!

The black iron sword in Chu Jun's hand suddenly turned scarlet red and scorching hot. Although Chu Jun had yet to cultivate the New Yang Divine Power, it was still as easy as lifting the flying sword to a high temperature. After all, he had absorbed a lot of the essence of the sun.

Qiang!

The black iron sword slashed across the stone ground, causing sparks to splatter everywhere. The ground actually ignited, igniting the nearby skeletons and spreading the fire rapidly.

Chu Jun originally had the mentality to try, but he didn't expect that he would actually succeed.

"How can a rock catch fire?" Zhao Yu asked in surprise.

The blazing flames burned, and the medullary-eating insects were roasted until they exploded like popcorn. In an instant, countless of them were burned to death, and the insects behind them turned around and ran away.

Chu Jun looked at the fleeing Medullary Devouring Beetles and happily said, "There are so many people who died here. Their flesh is dried and rotted here. The fat on their bodies … even the oil in the fat naturally seeps into the rocks. When they encounter high temperatures, they can ignite!"

When Zhao Yu heard that it was the Dead Man's Oil, his stomach churned and he almost spat it out.
