There is no light from the sun and the moon, and the dark wind howls.
In the mountains, there was a trembling figure. He held the torch and climbed toward the top of the mountain, leaning against the jagged rocks and turning his head three times.
Moving forward, what appeared in front of him was a crack that was more than a foot wide. The color underneath almost blended with the surrounding darkness, and it was bottomless.
He picked up a few gravels at his feet to confirm the situation on the other side of the fissure, then took a few steps back and then jumped to reach the other side.
Perhaps due to lack of exercise, although he had landed, his feet were unstable. He actually tilted his body and slipped backwards, accidentally falling into the crack.
Before he could scream, he felt a pain in his body. It turned out that the crack was not very deep.
"Ugh...what the hell is this place?" The torch fell not far away from him, and he quickly picked it up back in his hand, illuminating his face.
He is none other than Zhao Xiaozhong.
After moving his ankle to confirm that it was not sprained, Zhao Xiaozhong patted his butt and stood up. He held up the torch and shined it on the top of his head to compare it with the sky. Although it was not deep here, it was still three times as high as himself.
The stone wall here was rotten and would break when touched. There was no place to draw strength from. Zhao Xiaozhong looked back and forth and could only choose a direction at random. I hope the terrain ahead can be slightly higher so that I can return to the ground safely...
With the help of a torch, he found that the ground here was full of spider web-like cracks. He thought that this place should have been a river before, but it dried up for some reason.
But the strange thing is that there are still some traces of erosion on these cracks. It seems that the river passed through it not long ago. It is really inconsistent and incredible.
"What bad luck! If it weren't for Mu Lao, how could I be called by Master..." Zhao Xiaozhong muttered something as he walked, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
"Tick-tock...tick-tock..."
While walking, Zhao Xiaozhong suddenly heard the sound of water in his ears. But when he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw nothing.
"Strange, did I hear it wrong?" Zhao Xiaozhong scratched his head, turned around and walked forward again.
"Tick...tick...crash..." However, the sound was not an illusion. The sound of water in Zhao Xiaozhong's ears rang again, much louder than before.
"Crash... crash..." Zhao Xiaozhong looked back, his face turned pale with fright, and saw a darker "huge wave" not far behind him, rolling towards his direction.
"Help! Help!" There was no way to hide or escape here. Zhao Xiaozhong didn't dare to delay, so he spread his legs and ran away.
It's a pity that even if he ran fast, he couldn't distance himself. The "big wave" kept chasing behind him.
Zhao Xiaozhong tripped over something and stumbled. He didn't care to pick up the torch again, and hurriedly got up on his knees and continued to move forward.
However, the "big wave" no longer gave Zhao Xiaozhong a chance to escape. It was like a dark cloud, directly wrapping Zhao Xiaozhong in it...
"Ah!" Zhao Xiaozhong screamed at first, then suddenly reacted, hurriedly pinched his nose, held his breath and closed his eyes, then lay down and fell down, hoping to adapt to the situation in front of him as soon as possible and find a chance to survive.
After waiting for a long time, he realized that he was not swallowed up by the huge wave. Zhao Xiaozhong felt suspicious. He opened his eyes and saw that the huge wave had formed a water ball and wrapped itself around him.
"Senior brother..." A sudden voice made Zhao Xiaozhong tremble, and then he realized that there was someone beside him.
"Ah! It's Junior Brother Xiaoxing... Why are you here?" Zhao Xiaozhong was relieved when he saw the person clearly.
"Brother, I should be the one to ask you this, right?" The visitor waved one hand, and the huge wave instantly shrank into a black line, turning into a sword that looked like a withered bone, and was taken back into his possession. In the scabbard.
Although this man has a good appearance, he is full of evil spirits. He is Lu Xiaoxing.
After being brought back to the land, the sky here became inexplicably clear.
With one more person accompanying him, Zhao Xiaozhong felt less nervous and said with a long voice: "Junior brother Xiaoxing, I haven't seen you improve your swordsmanship for many days. You can actually turn "Xiao Se" into a wave model.
Sample! "
"Senior brother Miuzan, how can I have that kind of ability? I just recently had a whim to use the evil wave of "Xiao Se", but I didn't expect it to be possible! "
After saying that, Lu Xiaoxing waved his hand: "Don't talk about me anymore. I wonder how far senior brother has improved the magic book skills recently. Can I give junior brother some insights?"
"Alas..." Zhao Xiaozhong looked depressed, "Don't mention it! Although I have learned all the techniques in the magic book, I can also perform them. But if I want to go further, the death energy required must be extremely pure, which is no longer the case. It can be supported by quantity..."
"Is that so..." Lu Xiaoxing also frowned a little, "Senior brother, the trial of the League of Heroes is about to end. By then, Master will definitely hand over the Earth Walker to you to lead. If you can't make progress by then, just I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!" At the end of the sentence, Lu Xiaoxing had a wicked smile on his face.
"This is what I'm worried about..." Zhao Xiaozhong said with a mournful face, "Junior Brother Xiaoxing, you know I'm most afraid of trouble! How about I go talk to Master and hand over the Earth Walkers to you as well?"
"No!" Lu Xiaoxing hurriedly refused: "Senior brother, what I just said was just a joke. After all, you have the Earth Spirit Pearl in your body. You can control the Earth Walker even without relying on magic book techniques!"
"Having said that, you still need to be strong in order to make iron! What I'm worried about is that even if I can rely on the Earth Spirit Bead, it will inevitably fall into the mouth and bring shame to Master!" Zhao Xiaozhong looked pained, and then turned his hands. Something was taken out from the palm world.
"Earth Spirit Pearl?" Seeing this object, Lu Xiaoxing's eyes shone with light. His desolation and Earth Spirit Pearl complemented each other perfectly. If he could get this object, his strength would definitely rise to the next level!
He was about to stretch out his hand, but suddenly he came to his senses, hurriedly clenched his hands, and suppressed the excitement in his heart: "Senior brother! This earth spirit bead is what you rely on. Don't expose it casually, take it back quickly!"
Zhao Xiaozhong just shook his head: "Junior brother, senior brother is stupid, I'm afraid my strength can only stop here! Today I will hand the Earth Spirit Pearl into your hands, I hope it will shine brightly in your hands!"
With that said, Zhao Xiaozhong took Lu Xiaoxing's hand and wanted to force the Earth Spirit Bead to him.
"Senior brother! You must not do this!" Lu Xiaoxing hurriedly retreated to a distance, "Senior brother always defends Xiaoxing, but Xiaoxing has nothing to repay! How can I be so greedy and let senior brother sacrifice himself to help me?"
"Junior brother, don't take it to heart. Everything I do is actually for the sake of the League of Legends!" Zhao Xiaozhong wrinkled his eyes and smiled again.
Lu Xiaoxing looked serious and said seriously: "Senior brother! Although Xiaoxing is not a gentleman, he still knows the principle of not taking advantage of others! Although Xiaoxing needs the Earth Spirit Pearl, he has never had any thoughts of possessing it before! Yes, it is now, and it will be in the future! So... I hope senior brother will not mention this earth spirit bead thing again in the future!"
Zhao Xiaozhong's expression was a little complicated, but since the other party had reached this point, he could only take the Earth Spirit Pearl back into the palm of his hand.
"Sigh... Junior Brother Xiaoxing, what you do is really making it difficult for me as a senior brother..." Zhao Xiaozhong smiled bitterly, "That's all, the boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge. There will definitely be a way to do this... Farewell!"
"Senior brother, stay!" Seeing Zhao Xiaozhong hesitate in speaking, Lu Xiaoxing immediately noticed something, "Senior brother, what kind of trouble have you encountered?"
Zhao Xiaozhong stood still and said, "Well... to be honest with Junior Brother Xiaoxing, Master has given me a difficult task this time! So I originally planned to give you the Earth Spirit Pearl, and then use this as a condition to ask you to help me solve this problem. Difficult question! Since Junior Brother Xiaoxing has not accepted the Earth Spirit Bead, I am really embarrassed to speak..."
"Senior brother, what are you talking about?" Lu Xiaoxing frowned, "Senior brother encounters a problem, how can Xiaoxing just sit back and watch? Senior brother, please wait a moment, I will go to the master to ask for instructions, let us senior brothers Let the two of you go together!"
Zhao Xiaozhong's eyes flashed, and then dimmed immediately: "Master is at a critical moment now, no outsiders are allowed to disturb him! That's all, Junior Brother Xiaoxing, you can practice with peace of mind, I'll take it one step at a time!"
After saying that, Zhao Xiaozhong turned around and left, but his eyes couldn't stop glancing around.
After taking a few steps, Zhao Xiaozhong glanced back secretly, only to see behind him
There was no trace of him anymore. He frowned and felt bitter in his stomach. He thought to himself: What happened to this guy? Could it be that he really went back to practice?
The plan failed, and Zhao Xiaozhong no longer had the kind expression he had before. His face was almost gloomy, and his whole body exuded an earthy aura.
But not long after he walked out, he saw a dark shadow flash past, and it was Lu Xiaoxing rushing back.
"Senior brother, I left a letter at my residence, saying that I had to go out temporarily for something important. Even if Master sent someone to look for me, they would never guess that I was with you!" The sun was shining brightly on Lu Xiaoxing's face. He was completely different from the evil person before.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Xiaoxing! With your help, I can finally improve my grimoire!" Zhao Xiaozhong no longer dared to give in, for fear that the other party would regret it.
"Senior brother, you don't have to be polite, your business is my business!" Lu Xiaoxing did not see the other person's thoughts and vowed, "I wonder what task the master has given me to my senior brother. Can I obtain the pure death energy from the Jinjin Book?"
"Time is running out! Let's talk as we walk!" Zhao Xiaozhong moved his palm and wrapped the two of them in the yellow sand, like a yellow cloud that touched the ground and floated into the distance.
…
"Huang Qilin? This name seems familiar. How strong is this guy?" Lu Xiaoxing learned from Zhao Xiaozhong that this Huang Qilin was the target they wanted to solve this time.
"Let's put it this way... In the Gumen election, Wu Fan was second and he was first." Zhao Xiaozhong said vaguely.
There may not seem to be much difference between the first and second place, but he knew in his heart that if Huang Qilin really wanted to take action at that time, the last nine combined would not be his opponent...
After such a long time, even though he had an adventure, Huang Qilin would not stand still, so he was very unsure.
Over the years, as many as eight hundred people have died at his hands, but those he killed were all innocent people, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled.
About to encounter a truly powerful enemy, Zhao Xiaozhong had no combat experience, and he was already defeated by three points before he even started...
"Wufan?" Lu Xiaoxing was even more familiar with this name. After all, the affairs of the Five Elements people were widely spread and everyone knew about it.
"By the way, these people of the Five Elements died in the hands of senior brother back then! If senior brother is serious, it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with the first place! You think so, senior brother?"
"Junior Brother Xiaoxing is joking, I was just... lucky!" Zhao Xiaozhong said through gritted teeth.
Although Lu Xiaoxing's words were an unintentional joke, they were very harsh to Zhao Xiaozhong's ears.
It is true that Wu Fan died in his own hands back then, but the truth was completely different from the rumors.
At that time, Wu Fan had been knocked out of the Five Elements Cauldron by Laoshan Hand. He was seriously injured and lost resistance. Even if he didn't make up for it with a palm, he probably wouldn't be able to last for too long.
"Senior brother is really humble. You can't absorb so much death energy and improve the magic book skills to this level in just a few years just by luck!"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaozhong's face turned even darker. Because of his special skills, the guys who died under him were turned into yellow sand, leaving no trace behind. Therefore, only he himself knows about these dirty things.
Looking at Lu Xiaoxing with his back turned to him, Zhao Xiaozhong suddenly had a murderous intent in his eyes...
