Pear blossoms, falling.
Tears, fall.
In Lu Ran's hand, Qingwu's tears had turned into gems. The moment he picked it up, he found that it was brighter, and then a ball of golden light was reflected in it.
The golden light also fell at the same time.
Qingwu immediately shouted and dodged to the right.
Lu Ran then dodges in the opposite direction of Qingwu, but a little too slowly. A golden light burns Lu Ran's right shoulder like a powerful fast arrow.
"Qing, are you okay?" Lu Ran endured the pain and looked at where the golden light came from. He found that the light had been extinguished and there was only a black thing, the size of an old cow, like a cauldron, upside down in the air. Hide behind the trees.
Lu Ran knew that this was a big insect. Although it hid its body in the darkness, he could not mishear the sound of its wings flapping.
Qingwu closed his eyes and commanded: "It's hard for us to kill this thing, so use your treasure, 'Mist Dew Memory Blade'."
"How to use it?" Lu Ran held the date-sized glass bead in his hand.
"Jin Jinzi——" Before Qingwu had time to reply, he heard someone say something in the direction of the big insect.
The golden light suddenly lit up, and it was so bright that Lu Ran couldn't open his eyes.
Before closing his eyes, Lu Ran vaguely saw a huge golden beetle. What should I say? I seem to have seen this beetle before.
In a dream.
But the one in the dream didn't have such an ugly and disgusting face.
No matter whether it emits that dazzling golden light or not, Lu Ran doesn't want to look at it a second time.
If there is too much activity in the mind, the body will become slow.
So Lu Ran shot another light arrow.
"Golden gold——"
The girl-like call sounded again, and the golden beetle once again shot out two finger-thick light arrows from the strong light, fast and accurate, and as powerful as a rainbow.
Wherever the golden light shined, there was either a big hole punched through or it was burned into two pieces.
Another piece of skin was burned off on the back of Lu Ran's neck.
At this time, it was only three or five breaths away from Lu Ran asking Qingwu "how to use it".
Qingwu dodged slightly, perfectly dodging the attack of the golden beetle, and answered at the same time.
"Just think of the Absolute Rune and throw it where you want to cast it!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the golden light of the golden beetle was temporarily extinguished, Lu Ran hurriedly recited the four-word absolute rune in his mind, and then casually threw the "Mist and Dew Memory Blade" in front of him.
He didn't want to look at the big insect's face again.
Then he heard a clear sound of beads falling to the ground. After waiting for a few breaths, nothing happened.
"Golden gold——"
Two golden lights flashed across the night again, and Lu Ran barely managed to avoid them this time.
"Why no response?"
Qingwu stamped his foot: "Damn it, I forgot, you haven't practiced Qi, so you can't achieve the unity of spirit and Qi!"
Lu Ran was dumbfounded: "What should we do?"
While he was talking, two more golden lights struck. Lu Ran rolled three times on the ground and dodged again.
"If you do this, go pick that thing back up, put it in your mouth, count three times, spit it out, recite the rune again, and throw it again."
Qingwu taught Lu Ran well on one side and took three steps back on the other: "I'll tease it."
Lu Ran frowned: "Are you sure this will work?"
"Stop talking nonsense and do as I say!"
"You can obviously solve this thing in a few seconds, why are you torturing me?"
"Stop talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I will get out of the way!"
"No, this monster can shine. It can shine. It can break through the fog. When I returned to the world..." Lu Ran, who suddenly discovered the core of the problem, was about to make a long speech. When he turned around, he saw where Qingwu used to be. The position is already empty.
This Qingwu really dodges people!
"Damn it!" Lu Ran cursed secretly, knowing that he would never be able to escape, so he could only give it a try according to the method Qingwu said.
Qingwu probably wouldn't let himself die here.
"Golden gold——"
The golden beetle soon realized that it had lost a target and turned around, and two golden lights shot out.
Lu Ran could only roll on the ground.
He has discovered that due to the relationship between position and angle, the light emitted from the beetle's pair of insect eyes is actually better at long-distance and high-altitude attacks.
As for low and close places, not only is the shot inaccurate, but the power of the light is also much smaller.
It was just that the night was dark, and the "Mist and Dew Memory Blade" was too small. He rolled left and right, but still got scratched a few times.
After a lot of effort, the glass bead was finally recovered.
Regardless of whether it was clean or not, he quickly swallowed it in his mouth, rolled it and waited for three breaths, then took it out and threw it in the direction of the golden beetle.
Fortunately, the fog finally came.
This is Qingwu, he knows everything, knows everything, knows everything, but he likes to play with the people around him.
Sooner or later, Lu Ran's list would have to have her name written in big letters.
"Golden gold——"
"Golden gold——"
"Golden gold——"
The fog started to rise quickly, and the scarab seemed to be a little panicked. The light in its eyes was no longer as calm and stable as before, and began to shine randomly.
Lu Ran had already hid in a corner, waiting for further developments.
While holding his breath, he felt something cool and slippery touching his mouth.
He stretched out his hand and touched it, and found that the "Mist Dew Memory Blade" came back on its own.
Lu Ran understood that this was probably the "unity of spirit and energy" that Qingwu had mentioned before.
Also, if this magic weapon can be thrown out but cannot be taken back, then how can we fight with others?
Halfway through the fight, each called a timeout and said, "Please wait, let me look for my baby?"
The unity of spirit and energy, which can be freely retracted and released, is also the basic skill and basic quality of immortal cultivators.
What a hassle. At this time, Lu Ran had already hidden himself in the gap between the two big rocks beside the lake. He saw golden light all over his head, and the golden beetle kept chirping "Golden Gold" like crazy. For a moment, golden light appeared. Shooting randomly, it seemed like someone had set off fireworks by the pool.
What are you doing? In this way, sooner or later others will be attracted.
Could it be that this fog is just to prevent others from getting closer?
Whether Qingwu comes back or not, what is the point?
The fog has become as thick as ever. What used to be a pool of shimmering water in front of me is now only a milky white endless patch of color.
Lu Ran's heart suddenly moved, and his nose also moved.
He smelled a familiar scent that he hadn't seen for a long time.
The smell of the turbid sea, the smell of sea creatures under the water prison.
But he couldn't see anything. He only heard the pond in front of him, as if it suddenly rolled away, making a muffled gurgling sound.
The water in the pool seemed to begin to flow rapidly downward.
Then.
A huge tidal wave sound replaced the gurgling sound.
Lu Ran knew that this was the buzzing sound only made by whirlpools in the sea.
Left at the bottom of the pond, there was something huge, swimming up from the depths.
In the open space beside the pool, the golden beetle suddenly stopped calling "golden gold", and the golden light suddenly went out.
For miles around, all sounds disappeared in the thick fog.
Lu Ran only saw a huge black shadow, looming through the heavy white mist, like a mountain-like back, rising continuously from the pond.
