Jiang Hailiu's villain's face is vividly reflected.
Qi Lan, who was in the Fire Spirit Vein Cave, raised his brows, took out the golden sword and slashed it towards the top of his head. The terrifying sword energy spurted out, as if to tear the rock wall apart, and spread the noisy river sea across the sky. Flow kills.
Boom!
The sword energy exploded on the rock wall above his head, and the vibration caused countless lava to drip down, like rocks rolling down the cliff.
Qi Lan failed to kill Jiang Hailiu with one blow, but Qi Lan's face showed no expression. He just looked up calmly, his expression indifferent and sharp, piercing Jiang Hailiu's heart like a knife from a long distance away.
"When I get out, I will kill you."
On the high wasteland, Jiang Hailiu saw Qi Lan's mouth, his face suddenly turned pale, and he fell to the ground.
But then, he seemed to feel embarrassed, forced a smile, patted his butt, stood up, and shouted:
"Who are you trying to scare?"
"Let's wait until you can come out alive!"
Jiang Hailiu's voice came again, but Qi Lan ignored him and just turned around silently, looking towards a bright place behind.
That's the direction of the Fire Spirit Vein River, and that's where they came from.
Now, nearly two hours have passed, and their injuries have almost recovered.
So it's time for everyone else to arrive.
Sure enough, the moment Qi Lan turned his head to look, dozens of figures suddenly rushed out of the bright and hot darkness. Looking carefully, they saw that they were Cui Jibo and the young swordsman.
Their breath was scattered, their expressions were messy, and their bodies were covered in blood, as if they had just experienced a battle and were being hunted. They did not dare to stop for a moment. Even if they tripped over stones on the road, they would get up and run like dogs. He didn't stop until he saw other members of the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group.
"Finally saw a living person!"
With tears in his eyes, Cui Jibo fell to the ground with a plop, as did several of the younger brothers around him.
"It's you, Fellow Daoist Cui!"
The fat man with a simple and honest face showed joy at first when he saw the visitor.
As a member of the Emperor Dragon Adventure Group, it was inevitable that he would make some friends while traveling in the world. Cui Jibo had a very good relationship with him. The two of them once hunted a monster together and drank together.
"Brother Guo, I think you are thinking so hard!!"
When Cui Jibo saw the fat man in front of him, his nose became sore and he almost cried.
No one knew what hardships they had experienced along the way, but now they were finally saved.
"Brother Cui, get up quickly. Please tell me what happened and why your people were injured. Isn't there only erupting magma in front of you? How did you end up like this?"
Guo Jin asked in shock.
They have also walked that road.
Although it is dangerous, there is no reason for it to be turned into this.
Could it be that something unexpected happened?
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Cui Jibo and others in astonishment.
The remaining defeated generals numbered no more than twenty.
Ji Ning also looked a little surprised.
He thought that people like Cui Jibo would survive at least half of them, but he didn't expect that the whole army was almost wiped out.
Cui Jibo said with fear on his face:
"Brother Guo, you don't know something. There is not only magma behind it, but also a terrifying skeletal evil thing. That thing is invulnerable to weapons, extremely fast, and extremely sinister. Even a hundred of us combined cannot belong to it. opponent."
"Fortunately, that skeleton creature is very afraid of fire. Whenever the fire spirit veins spurt out, it will hide. We took advantage of this moment and rushed over regardless of the danger of falling into the lava!"
"What!?"
Everyone's expressions were shocked.
How come they haven't encountered such a powerful skeleton creature before?
Guo Jin looked solemn:
"Brother Cui, I can tell you clearly that when we came here a few days ago, we didn't encounter any skeletons."
"I'm not lying to you. He almost caught up with us just now. If you don't believe me, ask them!"
Cui Jibo pointed at the Fire Spirit Vein River behind him with a look of horror on his face, as if he was afraid that a black shadow would suddenly rush out from the looming heat wave.
Everyone looked over nervously, and after waiting for a long time, they didn't see any skeletons.
Suddenly, just when everyone thought that nothing would come out, a very fast black shadow flashed out, with surging spiritual energy exuding from its body, and it hit like a comet.
Boom!
"what!"
Cui Jibo looked horrified and couldn't help but retreat. The rest of the people did the same. They didn't dare to stay at all and ran inside like crazy.
They were really frightened by that terrifying skeleton, and in that narrow space, they had no ability to fight back.
The rest of the people were also wary, staring at the black shadow.
Only Ji Ning and others looked calm.
"It's...it's me..."
The black figure was lying on the ground, making a weak cry for help. He was a monk in the Jibo Adventure Group.
"Xiao Qi, you are still alive!"
Everyone immediately stepped forward and helped him up with surprise on their faces.
During the previous flight, everyone had no time to care about anything else and could only try their best to escape. Many of them fell behind and were entangled by the puppet's evil being, and they died by default.
"Luckily, he's not dead yet."
The boy known as Xiao Qi gave a pale smile, tried his best to support himself, stood up in an extremely weird posture, and leaned against the corner.
Looking at the scarred people around him, he couldn't help but have a look of longing on his face, and he couldn't help but lick his tongue. The scene was extremely strange.
But this scene was not noticed by many people. Cui Jibo and others just breathed a sigh of relief silently.
As long as that skeleton creature doesn't catch up, that's fine.
But Ji Ning and others all noticed this detail, looked at each other, and their expressions became solemn.
has a problem.
But I don’t know exactly where the problem lies.
"Don't worry, Brother Cui, no matter where the puppet is, he won't dare to catch up."
"There are more than 300 monks in our area together. Even if the evil creature is powerful, it is impossible for it to dare to kill it rashly. After all, we have not encountered danger for so many days."
Guo Jin patted the other party's shoulder and comforted him.
Cui Jibo also felt that it made sense, and his frightened mood finally calmed down.
But then, he seemed to remember something, raised his head suddenly and asked:
"By the way, four of you have come here!"
"four people?"
"Yes, three men and one woman!"
Speaking of this, Cui Jibo's face was filled with hatred and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Those four people seemed to understand the rules of the eruption of the fire spirit veins. They stayed safe throughout the process, and they even escaped while the lava was gushing out, leaving all of us behind to face the fire spirit vein eruption. A terrifying skull!"
"If they weren't selfish and unwilling to help us escape, we wouldn't have so many deaths!"
When Guo Jin heard this, a hint of surprise appeared on his honest face. He turned his head to look at Ji Ning and others and asked:
"Brother Cui, are you talking about them?"
Cui Jibo turned around and looked over.
Ji Ning and others looked calm.
Then Cui Jibo's expression became extremely ferocious. He stood up, and regardless of his injuries, he unleashed the second stage of pressure and shouted at Ji Ning and others:
"You four shameless people have nowhere to run now!"
"You have killed so many of my brothers, and I will make sure you pay with your blood!"
As he spoke, more than ten people, including Cui Jibo, burst out with spiritual energy, and surrounded them with eager eyes.
Qi Lan looked calm and said calmly:
"We didn't kill your brother."
"If you hadn't threatened us at the beginning and wanted to attack us, maybe we would have come to our rescue, but it's a pity that you didn't."
"No need to talk nonsense to them."
At this time, Ji Ning spoke up and stopped Qi Lan who was still trying to reason.
The boy looked at Cui Jibo and the others with an indifferent expression and said:
"I just won't save you, what can you do?"
"What can I do?"
Cui Jibo laughed angrily and walked slowly with the people:
"Boy, do you think that because you have fallen into the lap of a second-level master, you think you are safe and sound?"
"I'm telling you, he's not the only second-level person here. Besides, even if we can't do anything to him in the end, there are so many people here. How can we still not kill you?"
"Then try it."
Ji Ning said calmly, with a trace of excited fighting spirit slowly flowing out of the corners of his eyes.
After practicing for just two hours, he could feel that there was a little more spiritual energy in his body, and the copper color on his bones became more and more obvious, almost completely replacing the willow bones.
It can be said that he is only one opportunity away from breaking through.
This battle must be a battle between life and death, between brothers and sisters.
People at the same stage were too weak, and the puppet was too strong. Obviously, Cui Jibo, who was injured and in poor condition, was a good choice.
Seeing the fighting spirit in Ji Ning's eyes, Xue Zhongjing was a little surprised.
Although he knew that Ji Ning was extraordinary, he did not expect that the latter would dare to challenge Cui Jibo who was in the Qi Condensation Middle Realm. Even if the latter was seriously injured, he was still a strong person in the second stage after all, and he must have the upper hand. means.
Worried that Ji Ning would suffer a loss, Xue Zhongjing reminded him:
"Be careful. Since that guy is the leader of an adventure group, he will definitely have some back-ups. Whether it's Taoism or magic weapons, it's definitely not a wise choice for you to fight him head-on."
"If there is a fight later, you three will hide behind me. I will find a way to deal with it."
Hearing this, Ji Ning smiled slightly and said:
"Don't worry, Captain, I have a sense of discretion. He will be handed over to me later, and you can deal with the others."
"Really?" Xue Zhongjing was still a little worried.
"certainly."
Ji Ning smiled confidently.
Cui Jibo stepped forward with a fierce look on his face, and the others followed.
Seeing that the conflict between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper, a fight is about to begin.
"etc!"
