Ling Ning paused, and Xia Shiqing also noticed something unusual. The two looked at each other out of the corner of their eyes, and both understood what the other was thinking. In the flash of lightning, Xia Shiqing suddenly pounced on Ling Ning, grabbed his waist and took him away from the wooden man. At the same time, there was a loud noise behind him, and the two-meter-high blue wooden man was destroyed by a huge shadow!
Fortunately, Xia Shiqing reacted very quickly. If she took half a breath, the two of them would have been torn apart like wooden figures!
With the help of scattered light spots, one could clearly see a huge python suddenly appearing behind the two people, wreaking havoc on the wooden man. This giant python is white all over, with red eyes. With its head raised, it is more than three meters tall and one meter wide, with no tail visible at a glance! It was hard to imagine how such a giant python could appear quietly behind the two of them. Perhaps it had been approaching secretly in the quagmire, or perhaps it was crawling slowly on the vines. There was no detection in front of such an ancient and cold-blooded top hunter. This is also expected.
Xia Shiqing tightly grasped the vines on the rock wall with one hand and hugged Ling Ning's waist with the other. She whispered: "Will this affect your waist injury?"
Ling Ning felt a soreness in her waist. She knew that her waist was still unable to use its strength and she could not fight with the giant python.
"It doesn't matter, but... I'm afraid I'll drag you down... It's better..."
Xia Shiqing shook her head silently. Ling Ning also knew that she would never abandon him no matter what, so she stopped saying the rest of the sentence.
The giant python's scarlet eyes were focused on the two of them, and it was approaching the two of them while spitting out purple letters. Although the python's eyesight was extremely poor, it could re-lock the position of the two of them very accurately through thermal induction. Even staying still was of no avail.
In this muddy quagmire, this giant python undoubtedly has the upper hand. For the two of them, escaping is not the best option. It is better to fight with all their strength!
Ling Ning said: "Put me down and I will use Wood Escape to restrain it!"
Xia Shiqing nodded in agreement. She stared at the giant python intently, waiting for its next attack.
The giant python raised its head and opened its bloody mouth, followed by a suffocating stench! Then the giant python pounced towards the two of them!
There was another flash of lightning, Xia Shiqing hugged Ling Ning and avoided it! She placed Ling Ning in the quagmire, then climbed up with her long sword and stabbed the giant python's huge body with one sword!
"puff!"
This sword actually seemed to be pierced on a spring wrapped in flesh. The long sword curved and slid smoothly through the body of the giant python, leaving no trace at all!
At the same time, Ling Ning quickly made his fingerprints!
"Wooden Release: Wooden Man's Technique!"
Huge green trees rise into the sky from the mire! He instantly withstood the giant python's open mouth, and then Aoki transformed into a wooden man and hugged the giant python tightly with his palms!
The giant python curled up and its muscles bulged, and the wooden man immediately made a harsh "crunching" sound. It was obviously overwhelmed!
"Shi Qing, retreat! Use fire!" Ling Ning said hurriedly.
Xia Shiqing understood and jumped back a few meters, and then the two of them formed seals together!
"Spirit Fire·Fire Dance!"
"Spirit Fire·Explosive Flame Bomb!"
After practicing according to the method taught by the Palace Master, Ling Ning's understanding of the five basic attributes has deepened a lot, especially the fire attribute. After obtaining the demon fire, he has become increasingly sophisticated and can easily use the "Spirit" level one. Taoism.
Compared with the lowest "Ju" level Taoist magic, the "Spirit" level consumes less, but its power and range are doubled. It can be said that this level of Taoist magic has truly entered the realm of "cultivating immortals". Well, it was just a small fight before.
Both of these flames landed on the giant python accurately and swept through the whole body in an instant. The giant python's huge body struggled desperately in the flames. Finally, the wooden man exploded with a "crunch"! The huge body of the giant python hit the rock wall uncontrollably, causing the entire rock wall to shake, and a large amount of rocks and soil slid down along the rock wall. The giant python made a heart-rending hissing sound, which echoed in the cave. It was frightening!
Ling and Xia carefully avoided the rocks sliding down the rock wall. At the same time, they waited carefully for the giant python that was struggling and roaring in the flames until its huge body fell to the ground and never stood up again.
The flame became smaller and smaller, and the dark smoke quickly filled the entire space. Ling Ning waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew away the large amount of smoke. I saw that the giant python had long been turned into a blackened statue, and the spark of fire that had not been extinguished was like orange-red hot metal gradually cooling and turning into pitch black.
Ling Ning stared at the remaining body of the giant python. The blackened body suddenly broke. Looking inside from the cracked part, it was actually empty, with no bones or flesh at all!
"No, this is a snake slough!"
Although Ling Ning realized this, it was already over! Xia Shiqing's painful voice sounded behind him. Her body was lifted up by a huge force, and then she fell hard against the rock wall!
Xia Shiqing vomited out a large mouthful of blood, like a discarded rag doll, and fell weakly on the hard mud ground blackened by the flames. Then the giant python's huge head appeared again and suddenly attacked her!
Almost at the same time, Xia Shiqing also made her fingerprints!
"Spiritual Wood·Double Wall!"
Two green trees suddenly rushed out from both sides to protect her, hitting everything with the giant python's attack!
"boom!"
This blow caused a large amount of turbulence, and the vision was blurred for a while, but Ling Ning still rushed forward to check the situation regardless of his waist injury.
"Shiqing!"
"do not come!"
Xia Shiqing was covered in blood. She tried her best to raise her head and look up at the giant python that was about to attack, and made hand seals with her hands!
In a daze, Ling Ning seemed to see the scene when his father fell in front of him. He desperately wanted to do something, but now it was too late to form the seal! He unconsciously looked at the raised head of the giant python. There was a vague shadow hovering over its head in the smoke. Although he couldn't figure out what it was, he suddenly understood that it was that shadow in his heart. Control the giant python!
"asshole!"
With Ling Ning's roar, the stone sword that had been lost in the battle suddenly appeared in his hand again, as if it "grew" out of thin air from his palm!
In the blink of an eye, the stone sword turned into a "broken star" and with his roar, it turned into a sharp meteor and shot toward the shadow hovering above the giant python's head!
Two green trees jumped out of the quagmire to meet the giant mouth that was biting fiercely. They shattered like crispy bamboo shoots meeting an iron plate, but they also slowed down the giant python's attack a little bit. Just for a little while, "Whoa!" !" With a sound, the broken star pierced the shadow and nailed it to the stone wall!
The python's head, which was supposed to continue attacking, suddenly froze! It shook its head as if trying to drive away something.
"Shiqing! Are you okay!" Ling Ning rushed towards Xia Shiqing and nervously checked her injuries.
Xia Shiqing looked at the confused look of the giant python. After confirming that it would not attack again, she said to Ling Ning: "It's okay, it's just... it's just that the guy bit her leg through."
Ling Ning tore open her trouser legs, and a blood hole suddenly appeared on her skin that was as fair as snow. It was as if a pool of red spring water suddenly gushes out of the vast and holy snowfield, and the spring water that keeps pouring out dyes the snowfield bit by bit. Into a bright red.
Ling Ning took out the wound medicine and quickly stopped the bleeding, then wrapped it carefully with a bandage. She breathed a sigh of relief when everything was bandaged properly.
He raised his head and saw Xia Shiqing looking at him blankly, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "What? Does it hurt too much?"
Xia Shiqing looked away, shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's just a skin injury, so don't be too nervous."
Ling Ning grinned slightly with a bitter smile on his face. He shook his head and tried to dispel the image of his father's tragic death in his mind. When he raised his head again, he found that the giant python had disappeared.
"That guy is missing?"
"Well, it's gone. It doesn't seem to want to attack us. Is your back injury okay?"
"It won't be too much of a problem if you don't do strenuous activities."
Ling Ning helped her up. Compared to his waist injury, her leg injury seemed more serious.
"Can you move around?"
"fine."
Xia Shiqing's eyes turned to the struggling shadow on the rock wall that was penetrated by the long sword Broken Star. After a little recognition, she blurted out: "So it's it!"
Its transparent figure gradually emerged under the stain of blood. It was the big snake she had encountered on the mountain! She once saved the green toad that could only speak human language from its mouth, thinking that it must have come to take revenge on her.
"Have you seen this snake? It's strange, why is its body transparent?"
Xia Shiqing briefly explained how she encountered it, and Ling Ning was amazed.
"This guy really has some skills. He didn't freeze to death under the Broken Star. It's really extraordinary. And he can control such a huge python. How did he come about?"
"I don't know about this either. What's even more strange is that its snake skin is actually transparent, which is really rare."
"Not bad, hehe, but it's just too small to be made into a transparent robe. Well, maybe it can be made into a scabbard!"
The big snake seemed to understand the conversation between the two and struggled even more fiercely. The sword penetrated the rock wall so deeply that it could not escape no matter how hard it struggled.
Just when Ling Ning wanted to further end it, a strong wind suddenly swept from the depths of the cave! The whistling sound of the wind is like the moaning of a hungry ghost, making people unable to open their eyes. The wind also carried a strong fishy smell and an overwhelming coercion, like a fierce beast that had never seen the light of day in the abyss suddenly raised its head to the sky and let out a shocking roar.
After the strong wind passed, everything returned to calm, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion. This strange wind came and went quickly. If the splashing mud hadn't left traces on the two of them, they would have thought they were hallucinating.
The calm came so quickly that even the big snake nailed to the rock wall didn't react for a moment. It was stunned for a moment, then woke up and nodded wildly at them, as if it was kowtowing in prayer.
Ling Ning and Xia Shiqing looked at each other. To be honest, they were a little confused. They didn't know what was in the depths of the cave, let alone whether the big snake in front of them would be harmful to them. But neither of them likes killing, so it seems that it is not impossible to let him go.
"Are you begging us for mercy?" Ling Ning asked.
The big snake paused slightly after hearing this, and then nodded again. From time to time, it looked into the depths of the cave, as if it couldn't wait to go there.
"You seem to be very anxious. What happened inside?" Xia Shiqing asked softly.
Although the big snake is quite spiritual, it cannot speak human words like Toad Green, and can only kowtow and plead. The two of them looked at each other and knew that nothing could be asked.
"Okay, we can let you go, but you have to promise not to take revenge on us." Ling Ning made his final request.
The big snake naturally nodded in agreement with "joy". Ling Ning reached out and pulled out the long sword, while laughing at herself and saying: "I'm so stupid. What kind of guarantee can I ask you for? You won't be able to speak anyway..."
The long sword was pulled out, and the big snake fell to the ground with a "snap". It moved its body slightly and "hissed" at the two of them twice, as if to say: "I will keep my promise." Then it He crawled deeper into the cave without looking back.
"Shiqing, let's go take a look. I feel like there's something unusual inside..."
"Well, there is no place to climb up here, so we can only go deeper."
Ling Ning made his hand seals and used the wooden man technique again. The two of them got on the wooden man and followed the big snake to explore the depths of the cave.
…
When a red sun peeked out from the sky, Qian Meier's heart suddenly relaxed, but it was only a moment of relaxation, and then she became nervous again.
Looking at the small town that is about to disappear from the field of vision in the distance, it has been wrapped in flames. The raging flames are accompanied by billowing black smoke, just like wolf smoke in the desert. The red sunlight shows a tragic meaning through the smoke.
Recalling everything that happened last night, she really wished it was a dream, but the stiff pain coming from the right hand holding the sword told her that it was all real.
When the Heaven-Eating Demonic Art turned into golden butterflies flying all over the sky, all the monks in the city fell into madness. They desperately grabbed the golden pages, as if these pages were a pass to the fairyland. Although the killing had already begun, the gushing pages pushed the atmosphere to a climax. In this feast of fighting, every monk turned into a beast. They opened their mouths wide and exposed their fangs, and rushed to pounce on the floating meat in mid-air. They bit, roared, and struggled to get as many pages into their pockets as possible.
Various Taoist techniques turn the sky into colorful colors. If you look at it from a distance, you will definitely think that this is a festive fireworks ceremony.
At first, the killings were just for the fight for the pages, but as the fight intensified, people could no longer tell who the enemy was. Those who had grabbed the pages wanted more pages, and those who didn't have the pages had to fight desperately, even if they were Those who want to escape will also be targeted. No one knows whether you have book pages on your body, and no one knows whether you want to snatch the book pages. The best way is to strike first.
"Mei'er, go and rest for a while, let me take your place." Lingxi's face was pale. In the battle last night, all her proud bodyguards died. No one knew whether they died in the fight or in the battle. Do your duty faithfully.
"Is your injury okay?" Qianmeier said, but her eyes were still staring at the depths of the woods, not daring to let down her guard.
"I'm much better after taking medicine. It's just a skin injury...but Fan Ji..."
Fan Ji was already in a coma. She was the first to notice something was wrong as soon as the three of them rushed into the crowd last night. Not only did Lu Xin'er's figure quickly disappear, but the monks who rushed up to snatch the pages of the book did not allow them to leave alive. The three women were quickly surrounded. Fan Ji was the first to advocate retreat. Under her leadership, the three women desperately broke out in one direction.
During the breakout process, the three women encountered many obstacles. Fan Ji threw away the blindfold on her right eye, and the pupil of her right eye emitted a golden light, trapping the rushing enemies into illusion one by one, but she also because Tongli was overused and fell into a coma after escaping from the city.
Lingxi, who had always been dignified and pampered, saw her bodyguards dying one after another in front of her eyes. She couldn't help but feel afraid and almost gave up. Fortunately, Fan Ji and Qian Meier tried their best to hold on to her, allowing her to break out "completely intact".
She will never forget the giant palms that fell from the crowd, smashing the living monks into a pile of minced meat in front of her eyes. He can't forget the Xuanyuan Sword Formation flying frequently in the night sky, constantly penetrating the bodies of the monks. In the face of life and death, no one can hide their cultivation, but those who expose their cultivation will be strangled by the sword array without exception!
This sword array has not appeared for a long time. This time its reputation will soon spread throughout the mortal world, and then spread in the fairy dust continent. I believe that no one will dare to challenge it in more than ten years, and no one will dare to challenge it. People dare to question the legend of Xuanyuan Sword Formation.
"She will be fine. She must have experienced this kind of thing in Fairy Dust Continent... There were too many people last night, and there were too many monks gathered in that small city." Qianmei'er looked at her with a somewhat hollow look. Thick smoke in the distance.
Fan Ji took off the long sword in her hand and hugged her shoulders, "Go and sleep for a while. I believe that after last night's battle, no one will stay here anymore, and even if they stay, they won't have the strength to fight. .”
Qianmeier didn't say anything. She walked to the side and leaned against the tree with her eyes closed, as if she really fell asleep.
Lingxi sighed and looked at the blood on her hands. For a young lady who had been used to a comfortable life since childhood, this bloody experience undoubtedly made her see the cruel side of the world of immortality. But she still persevered and did not fall. It was thanks to the protection of Qian Meier and Fan Ji that she was able to leave the city. Without them fighting alone, she really couldn't believe what would have happened.
She doesn't understand why it's like this? Is the appeal of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique really that great? Even some old monsters from Fairy Dust Continent also came to fight for it... She couldn't figure it out, so she shook her head vigorously to dispel the dizziness in her mind. She didn't dare to close her eyes, fearing that those monks would look like hungry ghosts if she closed her eyes. She rushed forward again, but she was too tired. Although the injuries on her body were not as good as those of Qian and Huan, the real energy in her body was almost exhausted. She really wanted to take a nap and replenish her energy in the most primitive way.
Slowly, she finally couldn't bear the temptation of sleep and fell into sleep.
I don't know how long it took, but when she woke up, it was already late at night. She looked around, but she didn't see the figures of Qian Meier and Fan Ji. In the dark woods, they were the only ones left. She is alone!
