With a slash of the sword, a vacuum passage appeared in front of him.
All the snake monsters that blocked them exploded.
"We get into that gravel area."
After Chen Xiao cast his sword, he asked Yi Kang to change direction and head towards the gravel area.
Yi Kang didn't ask why. Chen Xiao must have a reason for saying this.
After spending more than a day together, they discovered that Chen Xiao's survivability and combat experience were far superior to theirs.
Passing through this forest, a large amount of gravel appeared in front of us.
The body of the snake demon is soft, and the gravel has sharp edges and corners, like a sharp knife.
These snake demons will definitely not dare to go there.
If you rush forward rashly, you will get entangled in the gravel and even cut their bodies open.
really!
Chen Xiao's strategy worked, and the snake demon chasing behind him slowed down a lot.
The gravel is rugged, and many of the stones are as sharp as if they had been chopped with knives and axes.
Su Ruirui killed a bucket-sized snake demon with one slash of her sword, then shot out her body to catch up with Chen Xiao and others' footwork.
It was just tea time before and after, and the four people's bodies were already soaked with sweat.
There is no formation, no brimstone, they are here.
Especially at the last moment, Chen Xiao changed his route.
According to the direction Yi Kang was walking, he must be heading deep into the dense forest.
The dense forest is the snake demon's paradise. After they entered, the ground was covered with dry leaves, and the snake demon walked on it like sharp arrows.
The sulfur has been used up and I have to rely on my own means.
Standing on a big rock, the four of them looked into the distance. Many snake demons were still swimming towards them without giving up.
Soon, a large number of snake monsters got stuck in the cracks of the gravel, unable to swim.
If you force yourself to swim forward, your body will be torn apart by gravel.
"We're finally out of danger."
Yi Kang had a lingering fear on his face.
From last night to now, they haven't rested for a moment, and their nerves have been tense.
Seeing that they escaped safely, the Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on Princess Lingyang's face also relaxed a lot.
"Seconds, this kid is so wonderful."
Many city lords stood up and were very satisfied with Chen Xiao's performance.
Especially Mulan Xi's father, he clapped his hands repeatedly.
Most of them were small city lords with low status and average cultivation. Even they would have a hard time getting away from the hordes of snake monsters.
Chen Xiao did it, not only escaped, but also killed a large number of snake monsters.
"This kid is quite talented. If he can be recruited into the army, he will definitely be a general."
A general stood up and showed his love for talents.
Chen Xiao's adaptability is best suited for the battlefield.
Because the battlefield is changing rapidly, you must be able to adapt to changes at all times.
If you react a little slower, your opponent will be caught off guard.
This kind of person will definitely make a difference if he joins the army.
"It's a pity to join the army. This person is not only proficient in martial arts, but also proficient in formations. He will achieve great things in the future."
The prime minister of the dynasty spoke out and believed that Chen Xiao's entry into the army was a waste of talent.
There is no shortage of talents in the Baiyun National Army, and there are many masters.
There was a fierce argument outside the court. People in the army wanted to win over Chen Xiao, but the Taishi Mansion believed that Chen Xiao's identity was unknown and he should not join the army.
So far, no one knows anything about Chen Xiao’s parents.
Under the scorching sun, those snake demons left one after another.
Snakes are cold creatures. They don't like sunlight. Most of them like to come out at night to absorb the moonlight.
"I suspect that these snake monsters were driven here intentionally."
Chen Xiao didn't say much, but suddenly said.
I didn’t say anything last night because I didn’t make time.
"Who has such great ability to drive away so many snake monsters?"
Yi Kang also suspected it, but had no evidence.
"If someone is controlling it, the person controlling it will not go far and is still nearby."
Chen Xiao continued.
Su Ruirui felt like she was facing a formidable enemy. She now believed everything Chen Xiao said.
"Is he from Prince Yu's Mansion?"
Yi Kang frowned. Prince Yu's Mansion has recruited many charlatans and magicians in recent years. Maybe some people really know how to control beasts.
"Ignore it for now. It's already delayed half a day. Let's get out of here as soon as possible."
Without evidence, Chen Xiao couldn't make a conclusion.
The movement is like four shooting stars.
Ba Yuxuan has the lowest cultivation level, but her speed is not slow. She also practices an extremely superb body technique.
Traveling through the mountains, we are getting closer and closer to the peak.
In a canyon, there were three men in black standing, their whole bodies covered in black clothes, even their heads.
"The four of them should have become the prey of the snake demon."
The man in black in the middle said sadly.
Because the face was covered with black cloth, the expression on his face could not be seen.
"There must be no corpses left. We have worked so hard to arrange it for so long. With the Tao family's soul-inducing flute and the summoning of tens of thousands of snake monsters, even those in the low-level Yuan Jue realm cannot hope to come out alive."
The man on the right has a sinister tone.
"It's getting late, let's get on the road as soon as possible."
The man in the middle, who should have the highest status, put away the flute in his hand and walked out of the canyon.
Not long after stepping out of the canyon, four figures in the distance came towards us.
"It's them!"
Seeing Chen Xiao and the others, the three men in black trembled slightly.
"Impossible, didn't they die at the mouth of the snake demon?"
The man on the left sounded a little less calm.
They saw with their own eyes that the snake demon surrounded Chen Xiao and others, how could they escape.
Chen Xiao's spiritual consciousness was strong and he had been paying close attention to his surroundings when he suddenly stopped.
Because he felt a sinister aura, which seemed to come from a huge poisonous snake.
"Chen Xiao, did you find anything?"
Su Ruirui asked.
"Look at that canyon."
Chen Xiao pointed to the canyon in the distance.
The three of them nodded and didn't think there was any problem.
"The place where we lived last night was surrounded by mountains on two sides, a lake on one side, and a dense forest to the west. Those snake demons swam from the dense forest. Logically speaking, they should have passed through this canyon. Look at the ground There are no traces left by the snake monster."
A word to wake up the dreamer.
Why these snake monsters would bypass the canyon and swim over there from the dense forest is really unreasonable.
"You mean, there is something in the canyon that the snake demon is afraid of."
Although Yi Kang is simple and honest, he still has a bright mind.
"Besides the fear, there is also the possibility that the person controlling the snake demon is in the canyon."
This time it was Bayuxuan who spoke. After this incident, Bayuxuan grew up a lot.
"Then why don't we go to the canyon and have a look."
Unconsciously, the three of them had regarded Chen Xiao as their backbone, and Su Ruirui sounded inquiring.
"No, if someone really controls the snake demon in the canyon, they will definitely come back. If we take the initiative to go up, we will easily be plotted by the other party, so it is better for us to plot against them."
A sneer appeared on the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth.
He is never polite to those who want to kill him.
The three of them nodded and agreed with Chen Xiao's opinion.
After that, the four of them continued on their way.
Watching the four people leave, three men in black walked out from the depths of the canyon.
"Brother Tao, what should we do?"
The man on the right had a stern tone and exuded a strong murderous aura.
"I didn't expect them to be so lucky and avoid the snake demon attack. We will take their lives tonight."
The man in black in the middle let out a chattering laugh, which sounded creepy.
The three men in black quickly disappeared and followed them quietly.
Jiuxiao Divine Pillar had already reminded Chen Xiao, but he pretended not to know and continued on his way.
Try to get to the peak before dark.
Make sure there is a flaming flag, if not, go to the next place.
Every two hours of running, I took a tea break until dusk when I finally entered the designated mountain peak.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, looking at the huge peak, I was ready to go up the mountain overnight.
