In an unknown town, there are many wooden houses built in twos and threes. There are actually many human beings living in the town.
Of course, these are not humans on Earth, but the remaining people from the Demon Kingdom.
Li Xiu looked at the people from the Demon Country in the town, but those people from the Demon Country seemed to have become accustomed to the arrival of humans on Earth. Not many people paid attention to Li Xiu, only a few children looked at Li Xiu curiously. Li Xiu already knew from the information that there were people from the Demon Kingdom here, and their levels were not very high. They were a group of poor people who fled here to live in seclusion after the Demon Kingdom fell apart.
Because the nearby demon spirits lack resources, it is difficult for them to achieve great achievements. Each generation is worse than the last, and now it is not easy to even find a light base level.
Li Xiu ignored them and left the town directly, heading towards the sunset and walking in the desert.
The desert here is black, and the sand is all gray-black particles. Under the scorching sun, the temperature of the black desert is much higher than that of ordinary deserts. Most people are prone to heat stroke in the black desert, and may even be in danger of dehydration. .
If there is no special contract, your feet will be burned if you step on the sand.
Li Xiu naturally did not have such troubles. He rode the pink nightmare in the black desert. The pink nightmare had just been fed to S level by Li Xiu. It had not even reached the super soul yet, and its speed was much slower than the Fire Lotus Sword.
However, Li Xiu was in no hurry and allowed the pink nightmare to gallop across the black desert. When Li Xiu saw an oasis appearing in the desert in front of him, he stopped, put away the pink nightmare, and entered the oasis.
This oasis is the last safe area. After passing the oasis, it is the territory of the sharpshooter. If you are unlucky, you may just take one step outside the oasis and you will be shot in the head by the sharpshooter who knows where.
If you're lucky, maybe the sharpshooter is sleeping or doing something else, and can move forward a little further in the desert without being discovered.
How far it can go depends on when it will be discovered by the sharpshooter.
Li Xiu walked through the oasis and came to the edge of the oasis, staring out at the endless black sand sea.
The previous desert was more undulating, with uneven sand dunes everywhere, but the desert here is very undulating, with few high sand dunes. You can see at a glance where the black sand sea connects with the blue sky.
Li Xiu hid behind a tree and stared at the sea of sand in the distance. He saw nothing as far as his eyes could see. God knows where the sharpshooter was.
"It's a pity that I don't have Jiuxiaoyun's Demonic Shark. It's really difficult to find the sharpshooter's location. It seems I can only try to see if I can block the sharpshooter's ultra-long-distance sniper attack." Li Xiu was a little helpless.
Just like what he had thought before, if he wanted to kill the sharpshooter, he had to take risks. There was no other way.
Of course, Li Xiu can also choose to be invisible and approach the target, but he hopes to know how powerful the sharpshooter is before that. He is here to alert the enemy.
Li Xiu didn't take any chances and directly summoned the forbidden spear, his whole body wrapped in flower armor.
The light of the evil spirit of life and the light of the evil spirit of death are also secretly hidden under the flower armor, just in case.
Taking one step out of the oasis, Li Xiu kept his eyes fixed on the distance of the desert. He could be shot, but he had to determine the location of the sharpshooter while being shot, otherwise the shot would be meaningless.
After walking a few steps, no bullets appeared. Li Xiu didn't hesitate and directly increased his speed, moving forward like lightning in the desert.
His own speed has long surpassed the Fire Lotus Sword. When it comes time to rush, he still has to run on his own.
In a moment, Li Xiu had rushed thousands of miles away, but he was never attacked by the sharpshooter, and no trace of the sharpshooter was found.
"Is it my luck that the sharpshooter happens to be sleeping?" Li Xiu was a little confused, but he didn't dare to take any chances. He didn't slow down or relax his vigilance. He kept looking around while running at high speed. Look around.
But apart from the black sand sea, there is still a black sand sea. He has run thousands of miles, but there is still nothing.
Saw the trace of the sharpshooter.
Li Xiu didn't know where the sharpshooter was, so he could only keep running forward. After running tens of thousands of kilometers, a lake appeared in front of him.
It was a white lake, like milk. Although it was not clear, it made people feel very holy.
Li Xiu came to the edge of Milk Lake. The lake exuded a refreshing fragrance, which was really weird.
But what surprised Li Xiu was not this mysterious milk lake, but that there was an island in the middle of the milk lake.
There is also a wooden house built on the island in the middle of the lake. A demon spirit that looks very similar to a human body is standing in front of the wooden house. He is wrapped in a black robe, with a hat on his head, a black scarf on his face, and a pair of scarlet Her eyes were staring at him.
Li Xiu immediately realized that this must be the sharpshooter. He had obviously discovered Li Xiu a long time ago, but for some reason, he didn't choose to snipe directly like he had killed the previous testers. This place is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the oasis. If the sharpshooter really has such ultra-long-distance sniping ability, Li Xiu has no power to fight back. He will not be able to see the sharpshooter so far away. "That gun of yours comes from the Sea of Heaven?" the sharpshooter said, looking at the forbidden gun in Li Xiu's hand. His human language was very standard.
Li Xiu immediately realized that the sharpshooter did not snipe him because of the forbidden gun in his hand.
"Not bad." Li Xiu nodded and replied.
"In that case, I will give you a fair duel opportunity." The sharpshooter flashed and came to Li Xiu.
The wind blew through the black cloak, blowing up a corner of the cloak. Only then did Li Xiu realize that the sharpshooter had two holsters hanging on his waist. The two black pistols in the holsters were the same as Li Xiu's forbidden guns. They are all in the style of revolvers.
"How do you want a fair duel?" Li Xiu asked, sizing up the sharpshooter.
"As a gunner, of course, your gun is faster and more accurate than anyone else's." The sharpshooter reached out and pulled out the two revolvers from his waist. Although they were both black guns, one gun had a red rose pattern on it, and the other one had a red rose pattern on it. The gun has a white rose pattern on it.
The sharpshooter pointed the red rose gun at the sky and fired a shot. A red light bullet suddenly shot up into the sky.
"The moment the bullets hit the sand, you and I shot at the same time. Life or death depended on it," the sharpshooter said.
"Okay." Li Xiu stared at the sharpshooter, not looking at the light bullets falling in the sky, and held the trigger of the forbidden gun with his finger.
At such a close distance, whoever shoots first will have the upper hand. As long as he is slower for just a moment, he may not even have the chance to pull the trigger.
The sharpshooter still pointed his gun at the sky, and the muzzle of the other gun was pointed at Li Xiu.
The moment the light bullet landed on the sand, almost at the same time, Li Xiu and the sharpshooter fired at the same time. The light bullet ejected from the barrel of the gun and hit the opponent's forehead almost simultaneously.
Li Xiu's forbidden bullet hit the sharpshooter on the forehead, knocking off the opponent's hat, revealing a head full of gray hair.
A white rose mark also appeared on Li Xiu's forehead.
"Why not use real murderous bullets?" the sharpshooter asked, staring at Li Xiu.
"How dare I use such bullets against you, President?" Li Xiu put away the forbidden gun and said calmly.
The sharpshooter was startled for a moment, then smiled and pulled off the veil, and said with some curiosity: "How did you find out? I asked myself that the costume is very similar, and even the breath has simulated the breath of the sharpshooter, but you still noticed it. Already."
"No matter how you change, you can't change your unique temperament. I recognized you the first time I saw you. Otherwise, how could I agree to play such a childish duel game? What's more, I have already had some doubts. "Why am I so lucky that the sharpshooter just let me go? I don't think I'm that special." Li Xiu curled his lips and said, "President, what do you mean?"
"I just want to know how far you have grown and whether you are qualified to fight in my place." The president said with a smile.
"Am I qualified?" Li Xiu asked.
"That's almost it." The president nodded.
"Does that mean it's still a little worse?" Li Xiu asked again.
The president smiled but did not answer: "I forgot to tell you before. It will take some time for us to reach the Sea of Heaven at sea, so we have to set off early. There is not much time left for you now." "How long?" Li Xiu frowned.
"I can give you up to seven more days," the president said.
Li Xiu walked directly to the president and stretched out his hand.
"What do you mean?" The president was a little confused by Li Xiu's action and looked at him doubtfully and asked.
"You must have killed the sharpshooter, right? Where was the thing he exploded?" Li Xiu said. "I killed that, why should I give it to you?" the president curled his lips.
"The battle in Tianzhihai is also yours, why should I fight on your behalf?" Li Xiu still stretched out his hand and said.
"That makes sense." The president was not angry at all. He took out a magic core and a skill ring and threw them to Li Xiu.
"Where is the divine gem?" Li Xiu caught the thing and asked with a frown.
"There are no divine gems. You think the divine gems are so easy to find. If you kill hundreds of divine demons, if you are lucky, you will only get one or two divine gems. If you are not lucky, you may not even get one, so I will kill them." If you have a sharpshooter, isn't it normal to not use the divine gem?" the president said with a smile.
"Isn't the mutated demon spirit bound to produce a divine gem?" How could Li Xiu believe what the president said.
"Who told the sharpshooter that he was a mutated demon? The resource stated that it was just a suspicion. In fact, the sharpshooter is not a mutated demon." The president sighed: "I also hope that he is a mutated demon, but unfortunately it is not. If you want to blame it, I blame you. It’s bad luck.”
"I risked my life to fight on your behalf. You can't even give me a divine gem, right?" Li Xiu finally had such an opportunity, so how could he let the president go like this?
The president was still not angry. He chuckled and said, "Okay, if you want the divine gem, I can give it to you, but not now."
"When will that take place? You won't wait until I die. Can you use the divine gems to offer me as an offering?" Li Xiu said angrily.
"To be honest, I don't have any divine gems on hand, so I can't give them to you even if I want to now. But on the way to the Sea of Heaven, there are many opportunities to hunt divine demons. The divine gem belongs to you," the president said.
"What if it doesn't come out?" Li Xiu asked.
"Then you can only blame yourself for your bad fate." The president paused and continued: "In fact, your current strength is enough. If we really want to fight, it will be useless no matter how strong you are. In the end, you still have to lose. You just have to meet the minimum standards. If you want to win, you can't rely on brute force, you have to find a way."
"What do you mean?" Li Xiu didn't quite understand.
"How about Guan Jinghao's The Fall of God?" The president did not answer, but asked an unexpected question.
"Very strong." Li Xiu answered truthfully.
"If Guan Jinghao goes there, he doesn't even have a 10% chance of winning. Do you think that even if you are fully prepared, you can be sure of defeating Guan Jinghao?" the president said.
"So, am I not bound to lose this battle?" Li Xiu frowned.
"So I said, as long as your strength is enough, you have to use your brain to win." The president's expression was very playful.
"Since there is a way to win, why don't you tell me directly?" Li Xiu asked, staring at the president.
"Some methods won't work if you say them. You have to figure it out on your own. But you can rest assured that no matter you win or lose, I will ensure that you come back alive." The president straightened his back. His tall figure had a certain The strong sense of oppression is very different from the usual wretched old man appearance.
Li Xiu knew that he couldn't get any results from asking anymore, so he turned around and left. He couldn't believe the president's guarantee at all. He still hoped to provide his own strength as much as possible before going to Tianzhihai. Only his own strength was the best. Strong capital.
He will take advantage of the last seven days to hunt as many divine demons as possible, hoping to get a few divine gems.
The president did not stop Li
Xiu just squinted his eyes to watch him leave. When Li Xiu completely disappeared from his sight, the president murmured to himself: "This guy's personality is really similar to Jing Hao's, both are equally stubborn. Don’t trust anyone.”
Li Xiu left the trial site and immediately went to other trial gates. For seven consecutive days, Li Xiu spent time in different trial sites.
He didn't know whether it was the divine gems that were really that rare, or whether he had been a little unlucky recently. After killing five divine demons, he didn't even get a single divine gem.
Seeing that the time was almost up, if he didn't go back, the old scumbag, the president, might come to see him in person. Li Xiu could only return to the Eternal Life City angrily.
"You're finally back. The old official asked you to go to the institute immediately after you come back. It's very urgent." The bandit said this when he saw Li Xiu.
"What happened to the institute?" Li Xiu asked doubtfully.
"I don't know. The old official just said he was in a hurry and didn't say anything else. I asked him, but he refused to tell me." The bandit shook his head.
Li Xiu had no choice but to go to the research institute again. As soon as he arrived at the research institute, the old researcher at the gate saw him and excitedly pulled him into the laboratory.
"Mr. Zhao, what's going on?" Li Xiu looked at Lao Zhao's expression, it shouldn't be a bad thing, and he was relieved.
"Chief, let the officer tell you in person." Lao Zhao refused to say, but just pulled Li Xiu into the laboratory.
"Xiao Lizi, you are finally back." Ximen Guan said proudly when he saw Li Xiu.
When Li Xiu heard that Ximen Guan got carried away and called him Xiao Lizi, he knew that Ximen Guan must have made some big move, otherwise he wouldn't be so arrogant.
"Has your research yielded new results?" Li Xiu asked.
"As expected of you, you are smart. Guess what new achievement it is?" Ximen Guan said with a smile. "Isn't it because your magic costume was successfully developed?" Li Xiu curled his lips and said.
Official Ximen was slightly startled and said unhappily: "You kid is really not interesting at all. Forget it, come with me. I'm just waiting for you to test."
"Is there no one in the Magic Equipment Brigade who can test it?" Li Xiu said as he walked.
"If someone can test it, what are you waiting for?" Official Ximen pulled Li Xiu into the innermost laboratory.
"Where is your magic costume?" Li Xiu scanned the entire laboratory and did not see the magic costume Ximen Guan mentioned.
"There are times when you can't tell." Ximen Guan proudly picked up something and threw it to Li Xiu. Li Xiu caught the thing and saw that it turned out to be a bracelet.
The bracelet seemed to be made of platinum, with seven bean-sized gemstones inlaid on it. Each gemstone was the same shape and size.
Li Xiu had seen anywhere from ten thousand to eight thousand high-grade gems, but he really didn't recognize the types of these seven gems, at least they weren't any kind of gems he had seen before.
"Is this a magic costume?" Li Xiu looked at such a small gemstone bracelet in his hand and found it hard to imagine that it was actually a magic costume.
"Whether it is a magic suit or not, you will know if you try it. You have to activate seven gems at the same time to activate this magic suit." The old man did not say a word. He had actually found someone to test the magic suit. The magician with the strongest spiritual awareness among the division team could only barely activate the first gem.
Li Xiu didn't have much time, so he didn't say anything more. He put the gem bracelet on his wrist, and then activated the magic equipment as Ximen Guan said.
Professor Xu and a group of researchers were all watching the situation inside at the door. Some climbed on the glass to look in. They all looked very nervous.
They risked their lives to create the magic costume, but in the end no one could activate it. Except for Li Xiu, the strongest magic costume master could only activate the first gem, and the remaining six gems had no effect on spiritual consciousness. The requirements will become higher and higher. If Li Xiu can't activate it, no matter whether this magic equipment is successfully developed or not, it will be a waste.
Li Xiu tried it first, but even if he failed to pass the line, he couldn't activate even a single gem. Professor Xu and others were very nervous. Seeing that Li Xiu could not even activate a gem for the first time, their hearts suddenly rose to their throats.
Ziyan.
But then they saw the gems on the bracelet light up one by one. In the blink of an eye, all seven gems bloomed, and the bracelet also underwent magical changes.
Threads of light extended from the bracelet, as if they were alive, and wrapped around Li Xiu's body.
