With a wave of his hand, the demon snake appeared from the beast ring and stopped the golden leopard.
Damn it, Chen Er cursed secretly. For him who considers himself a noble monster hunter, it is extremely unwise to fight monsters, and such a large number of monsters. At that moment, he quickly increased his speed and threw his hands back. Shoot out several fireballs.
The IQ of monsters and humans lies in this. Facing the enemy, what they think of is relying on their powerful bodies to fight in close quarters. If the monsters chasing Wu Tian directly cast spells, he would never be able to jump around for that long.
Bang bang bang, two nearby demonic beasts were smashed away by the fireball. Their rough skin and thick flesh were not greatly harmed, but it aroused their ferocity. At that moment, they gave up Wu Tian and chased Chen Er. .
At the same time, the monsters further away were also attracted by the sounds here and began to join the chasing army, including some second-level peak monsters.
For a while, the two of them were in a dilemma. Although Wu Tian was more experienced, he faced more attacks because he was relatively behind. However, after a while, there were many more wounds on his body, and his pace slowed down a lot.
Looking at Wu Tian who was in danger behind him, Chen Er showed a sneer. There was a dense forest not far ahead. He just had to escape into it and then turn around to stop this guy. . .
kindness?
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion behind him. Chen Er glanced back, only to find that Wu Tian was nowhere to be seen.
what happened?
Where did that guy go? He couldn't have been torn apart by those monsters.
At the moment of surprise, a figure suddenly appeared on the edge of the forest in front of him. It was Wu Tian who had used the earth escape technique to pass through.
"you,,,"
Chen Er's heart tightened. This was originally the scene he had imagined, but how could it be reversed?
And why can he perform the earth escape technique? It is impossible to perform it at such a long distance without second-level cultivation and long-term hard training.
At this moment, Wu Tian took out a talisman and threw it over, while smiling at him.
"This is...not good."
Before Chen Er could make a move, his right leg tightened suddenly.
A green wooden vine emerged from the ground and wrapped tightly around his right leg.
Chen Er's expression changed drastically. He had done this to the other party before, but he didn't expect him to return it at this time.
Not far behind him was the incoming army of monsters. It was too late to cast spells, but Chen Er was not unprepared. He quickly took out several fireball talismans and flicked them.
Bang, several fireballs appeared, burning the vine, and Chen Er, who was free, ran quickly.
However, after these few seconds of delay, the distance between him and the monster behind him had become much closer.
At this moment, Wu Tian in front took out a bone stick and rushed over.
"This road is blocked."
"No,"
Chen Er was really panicked now, "Wait, listen to me,,,"
Seeing that Wu Tian did not respond, Chen Er, who was frightened and angry, tried to save himself. He threw several fireballs again to try to force Wu Tian back.
There was no way, it was too late to cast Fire Snake in such a short time.
Bang bang, Wu Tian, who looked calm, grasped the big stick and smashed the fireball away. At the same time, the remaining force continued to fall towards Chen Er, even if the sparks fell on him, he ignored them.
It was no problem to resist a mere fireball with the bones of a fifth-level mammoth beast, but when it fell in Chen Er's eyes, he finally panicked. He tried to dodge to the side, but Wu Tian, who sensed the opponent's intention, changed his side grip to a sweeping sweep. .
Chen Er, who was in a panic, took out a palm-sized strange treasure from his storage bag and held it in front of him to block the big stick's attack. However, under the force of this force, he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood and at the same time, he straightened up. Fly straight out.
"No",
A flash of despair flashed in Chen Er's eyes in mid-air, and then he saw a furry claw coming from behind.
In an instant, he was surrounded by five or six monster beasts.
The screams began quickly, but stopped abruptly after only a few seconds.
At this time, Wu Tian had retreated into the dense forest, still holding the strange treasure that Chen Er had just dropped to the ground.
Several demonic beasts originally wanted to continue chasing, but they quickly retreated under the shock of the demonic snakes that arrived.
After Chen Er died tragically at the mouths of many monsters, the golden leopard, who had regained his freedom, had no intention of revenge, so the monster snake was free to help.
A few minutes later, the gathered monsters left, leaving only some broken limbs. Wu Tian in the distance watched indifferently as Chen Er was torn apart by the beasts.
All this was planned by him, to lure the opponent to show up, and then use the power of the monster beasts to carry out a desperate counterattack, in which the earth escape technique was the key.
At this time, a smiling voice sounded.
"The weak defeated the strong, although it relied on the help of the monsters and beasts, but it also shows your adaptability, coupled with the earth escape technique that has always been hidden, little guy, it is hard for people to believe that you were still an ordinary person two months ago. .”
The fragrant wind blew by, and a graceful figure appeared behind him, looking at Wu Tian with a pair of big smiling eyes.
At this time, Wu Tian's expression gradually softened, but his inner vigilance did not diminish at all. He bowed and said: "Meet Elder Liu."
This woman was none other than Catkins, who had once met in the tower. She was also the one who went to Tiger Roaring Mountain before. Unexpectedly, she came here in person now, and she obviously saw the melee just now.
"Gone?"
Liu Xu was slightly stunned. She thought the young man in front of her would panic and plead after being exposed. However, after a while, the other party was still there and had no intention of saying anything further.
Wu Tian shook his head. He had already learned about this woman's moody character. The purpose of her visit today was unknown, so it was best to be cautious in her words and actions.
Seeing this, she snorted coldly and said, "I have seen with my own eyes everything that just happened. You must know who the person you killed is. This crime of harming a fellow sect is not a small crime. I am also very embarrassed."
Wu Tian cupped his hands and said: "Since Elder Liu witnessed it with his own eyes, he must have also seen the scene where the boy came out of the abyss and was chased. It was this senior brother I had never met who drove the contracted monster to commit murder for no reason. I was forced to choose self-defense. .”
Elder Liu laughed angrily, why have you never met before and been forced to do nothing? It was obviously a premeditated plan just now, otherwise the other party would attack you for no reason?
She wanted to scold, but considering the purpose of her trip, she finally suppressed it and waved her hand: "Forget it, this is your business, and I don't want to interfere too much, but an inner disciple died tragically outside. This matter can be big or small, I can help you hide it, and in exchange, you have to promise me something."
The real drama is here.
Wu Tian's mind changed rapidly. After hesitating for a while, he smiled bitterly and said: "The elder told me that as a disciple, I naturally don't dare to disobey. It's just that my cultivation is low. If I miss the elder's important matter,"
"Okay, okay,"
The woman waved her hand impatiently: "As long as you agree, I won't blame you even if it fails afterwards."
"You are so young, you are so sophisticated and cunning in doing things, you don't know what is in your head."
Wu Tian grinned shyly.
That night, in a quiet valley a few miles away from the abyss, Elder Liu looked at Wu Tian and said calmly: "I am mainly looking for you this time for the soul contract."
Soul contract? Wu Tian looked at the demon snake aside, but what he said next made him startled.
"Little guy, how much do you know about today's world of immortality?"
Wu Tian looked confused, and the other party continued.
"On the Tianshu Continent, in addition to the five human dynasties of Jin, Qin, Wei, Chu, and Zhou, there are also places beyond the Great Wall, such as Demon Plain, Shiwan Mountain, Western Demon Cave, and Endless Sea, which are beyond the reach of human beings. Their areas are so vast Even an immortal who has attained enlightenment may not be able to conquer it all."
"In addition to the raging demons, Cangqiong Immortal is also looking down at the human world with cold eyes, of which the human race is only a small part."
"They are known as immortal cultivators. They have cultivated three thousand ways of heaven. They swear to be of the same age as heaven and earth. They take it as their duty to slay demons, eliminate demons, and punish evil spirits. However, I don't know when some people began to treat demon catchers, demon slayers, and ghost masters as their own. The person who talks about it and even the fairy talker regards it as a heretic."
Hearing this, Wu Tian frowned.
Heretic? Although he didn't care much, it was obviously not a compliment.
Faced with his doubtful gaze, Elder Liu said calmly: "I don't know the specific details of this matter. You only need to know that because the Wei Dynasty is adjacent to Shiwan Mountain, most of the immortal cultivating sects are of the demon-catching lineage, and even Tianqiong's The same is true for immortals, so the Wei Dynasty often encounters controversy in the human domain."
She told Wu Tian that every time a cultivator breaks through a major realm after entering the first spiritual stage, a heavenly tribulation will come. The deeper the cultivation level, the more powerful the heavenly tribulation will be.
However, the heavenly tribulations of the creatures in this world are all carried out by the orthodox immortals who control thunder and lightning in the fairy world. Under this trend of public opinion, the intensity of the heavenly tribulations is also changing quietly.
Wu Tian suddenly realized that, to put it bluntly, those orthodox practitioners were protected, but heretics such as the demon hunters were targeted.
It's just that Wu Tian still doesn't quite understand the reason for doing this.
At this time, the white fox's voice sounded in the bottom of his heart, "Jealousy. The human race is favored by heaven. Although it was once on the verge of extinction, after the power rose, those immortals did not think of helping their fellow tribes below. Instead, they began to suppress other forces for resources."
It told Wu Tian that orthodox immortal cultivators rely more on spells, magic weapons or formations to fight, which are very powerful, but demon hunters have demon beasts as helpers. Once they become immortals, they will have two immortals. This The combat power far exceeds that of ordinary immortals.
In addition, they have another thing that defies heaven. Whether it is the heavenly tribulation of the immortal cultivator or the three declines and nine tribulations of the immortal, they can only resist it alone, but the monster catchers can join forces with their own monsters. Because Tiandao admits it, but only the soul contract concluded by Tiandao himself can have this treatment.
Wu Tian suddenly realized that although he had not experienced a heavenly tribulation, he knew how terrible the human heart was. It seemed that this immortal was not as arrogant as he imagined.
At this time, he also vaguely understood the reason why the woman in front of him was looking for him, and he smiled bitterly and said: ""
As expected, Liu Xu then said: ""The soul contract is different from the spirit contract. It is concluded by the way of heaven and has no clear rules. The only thing that is certain is that it can only be born when the monster catcher and the monster beast share the same heart and soul when they are in trouble. "
