Beishan Dashi Valley, Nei Valley Tiankeng
When the tooth-buried centipede saw its prey retreating, it immediately raised its body and hissed.
Immediately, a man leaned down and burrowed into the ground, escaping directly into the ground...
On the other side, Qiye, who was moving back, saw that the monster did not attack him directly, but unexpectedly got into the ground and disappeared.
I couldn't help but stop, feeling something was wrong.
It's nothing to face the enemy directly, the enemy you can't see is the most dangerous!
As long as he relaxes for a moment, he will be ambushed.
With just one blow, he was helpless.
Therefore, Qiye glanced around with a vigilant expression. He was extremely nervous and did not dare to let down his guard.
Sense the movement underground with all your heart to prevent monsters from sneaking up on you from unpredictable directions.
Boom boom boom~
Just as he was thinking about whether to hide in the secret realm at this moment, there was a continuous roaring sound from the ground under his feet, accompanied by high-frequency vibrations.
The gravel on the ground trembled and roared, like an earthquake.
Boom boom boom!
As the shaking intensity intensified, Qiye's body began to become unsteady and swaying.
Oops, the monster must be trying to take advantage of his unstable position to attack!
He judged in his mind.
Now that the enemy is in the dark and we are clear, we can't see clearly the path of the monster's attack. We dare not move rashly, let alone jump up easily.
Qiye believes:
Even though there was so much movement on the ground, any slight movement he made on the ground could be clearly sensed by the Buried Tooth Centipede underground.
Without knowing where it would launch its surprise attack, once it jumped up first, it would lose the chance to dodge in the air and become a living target.
When the time comes, it will break out of the ground and deal a fatal blow to itself.
After all, centipedes are beings called "earth dragons".
Its ground penetration speed is unparalleled, even more than twice the ground crawling speed.
Therefore, the tooth-buried centipede that escapes into the ground is undoubtedly like a sharp sword flying in the water. It is unknown when and where it will be shot out. Its danger is self-evident.
Boom boom boom! ! !
Suddenly, Qiye saw a crack in the ground heading towards him quickly, and he was about to reach it.
"coming!"
He judged in his mind.
Then he jumped back, trying to escape the surprise attack.
But as soon as it jumped into the air, the Tooth Buried Centipede did not emerge from the crack in the ground as expected.
"not good!"
Qiye screamed, but it was too late, he was about to land in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, there was a "bang!" behind him.
The Buried Tooth Centipede broke through the stone layer on the ground, opened its mouth wide, and with a pair of long-prepared jaw teeth, it bit out Qiye who had just turned around like lightning.
"Well……"
Qiye, whose abdomen was tightly clamped, let out a painful and dull whimper.
After successfully biting its prey, the Tooth-Buried Centipede soared into the air, then fell in a parabola, and then plunged into the ground.
Bang bang bang...
Underground, the monster burrowed forward quickly, and Qiye, who was tightly clamped, suffered constant blows from rocks on his back.
"puff!"
Finally, the spiritual protection could no longer block such an impact, and Qiye spurted out a large mouthful of blood.
After he regained his breath, he clenched his fists and shouted:
"Holy Lion Demonic Flame!"
Hooray!
A scorching golden flame immediately erupted from his fist.
The flames then burned stronger and stronger, and soon enveloped his whole body.
The Holy Lion Demon Flame is his most powerful flame besides the 'Black Demon Flame'.
This flame is the fire he bought for alchemy. It comes from the third-level monster - the Holy Blood Demon Lion. The flame temperature is 2300°C.
Even molten iron can melt, but he didn't believe that the centipede wouldn't let go.
However, to Qiye's disappointment, the Tooth-Burning Centipede still bit him and refused to let go.
Qiye smashed Centipede's skull with his fist.
Miso miso miso......
The golden fire fist struck the hard carapace, hitting beams of fire and leaving a black fist mark, but it could not hurt the monster at all.
"No, the gap is too big! I can't hold on for long if I keep going like this. Damn it! Damn it!"
Qiye pumped his fists desperately, but still couldn't shake it.
The severe pain in his abdomen made him realize that time was running out to escape.
In fact, the beast fire of a third-level monster is equivalent to the attack of a fourth-level monster, and can injure a fifth-level monster.
But because Qiye's strength is too low, he cannot fully exert 100% of the power of the beast fire.
boom! There was another loud noise, and the Tooth Buried Centipede rushed out of the ground.
Click, click, click...
Perhaps Qiye's dying struggle angered the Tooth Centipede, and it suddenly burst out with a huge bite force.
"Ahhhh!!!"
Qiye, whose body was clamped by the big jaw teeth, let out heart-piercing screams, and the golden flame gradually weakened until it was completely extinguished...
The bite force of a fifth-level monster is enough to easily break an ordinary mid-level mysterious weapon into two halves.
If Qiye's body bones and muscles had not been improved and strengthened by the Hunyuan Refining Realm, he might have been cut in half the first time he was bitten.
But even so, no matter how strong the flesh and blood body is, it is difficult to escape the fate of being dismembered.
Phew!
The centipede's pair of sharp jaw teeth cut into Qiye's waist on both sides, clamping him firmly to death.
Then a half-meter-long venomous thorn shot out of his mouth, piercing Qiye's abdomen and directly piercing the spiritual wall of his Dantian.
The spiritual wall that has been strengthened by the Hunyuan Refining Realm cannot block all attacks, and will be penetrated by powerful attacks.
Therefore, the strength barrier of the "early battle ax level" in the Hunyuan refining realm cannot block attacks equivalent to the "late battle spirit level".
And on the other side,
The tooth-burial centipede does this to prevent its prey from exploding.
It already has initial intelligence, and naturally knows how to completely eliminate the potential threat to itself from the prey. Even if the prey has no power to fight back, a desperate attempt will still cause trouble for itself.
The wall of the spiritual world was penetrated, and in an instant, blood flowed like a waterfall in Qiye's abdomen, and huge spiritual power poured out like a torrent that burst a dike...
The rupture of his Dantian and the heart-rending pain made Qiye extremely conscious. He understood that his life and death depended on this split second.
Break free quickly! ! !
Qiye pulled the big jaw tooth with both hands desperately, trying to loosen it a little. He was about to die from the pain.
But no matter how hard he pulled, the pair of fangs couldn't be moved at all.
Within his body, pain hit him like an explosion.
He can't hold it any longer...
The internal organs were squeezed and ruptured, and the blood in the abdomen kept pouring out of the mouth. With such bleeding and deflation, he would definitely die within a few breaths.
Ahhhh! ! !
During the painful struggle, desperate and unwilling memories emerged in Qiye's mind:
Could it be that... I really died here today and everything is over?
Just when his mind began to wander, his hands dropped weakly, and his life was about to be cut off.
Suddenly, spiritual power poured out from Qiye's abdomen.
A stream of black flames spurted out uncontrollably in an instant, like splashing water, directly covering the centipede's face and inevitably splashing on the centipede's head.
Zhizhi...
The Tooth-Buried Centipede, who thought his prey was going to die and was about to take a big bite, never expected that such an unexpected thing would happen.
Before he could react, like a pig's skin scalded by boiling oil, the head of the Buried Tooth Centipede was covered in black magic flames and made a "squeaking" sound.
Hiss! ! !
With a long hiss, the tooth-buried centipede in severe pain could not care about the prey in its mouth. It quickly opened its jaws and flicked it to the side, hoping to get rid of this scalding disaster as soon as possible.
In a state of confusion, Qiye was thrown by this force and was thrown ten meters away, hitting the rock wall heavily.
puff! Suddenly, another mouthful of blood came out of his abdomen.
Then fell to the ground.
Wow...
At this time, it had been seven bloody nights, with blood pouring out of his mouth and bleeding in his abdomen.
At the incision, the remaining black demonic flames were still burning faintly...
The whole person looked like a corpse being cremated.
At this moment, he no longer had any strength to struggle anymore. He could only lie on the ground sadly, waiting for the last chance of life to pass...
Hiss! ! !
On the other side, the tooth-buried centipede, whose head was completely covered by the black demonic flames, curled up on the ground, thrashing, rolling and flopping...
But no matter how hard it struggled, the black demonic flames still showed no sign of being extinguished.
The violent whipping kicked up waves of dust, and the entire bottom of the sinkhole became so gray that it was impossible to see clearly.
After one stick of incense...
The Tooth-Buried Centipede was no longer able to twist and roll. When the dust settled, it no longer made any movement.
The entire dozens of meters long body was huddled together in pain.
Ahem...
hehe……
On the other side, a corpse was lying on the side of the rock wall. Qiye coughed twice in discomfort and turned his head to look at the dead centipede beside him.
A bleak smile appeared on his face:
It's not a bad thing to be able to pull a fifth-level monster onto your back before you die.
Just as he was closing his eyes and dying...
"Tsk tsk tsk... I finally found it."
When Qiye's confused eyes were about to dissipate, a strange voice suddenly sounded in the sinkhole.
Then, on a rock wall somewhere, a ray of white light penetrated and shot into Qiye's body.
It was as if a shot of cardiotonic was injected, causing his low heartbeat to burst out with powerful life energy again.
"Um, who is it?"
Feeling the vitality that had been stripped back return, Qiye said before dying.
"Haha... It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is, who are you?"
While he was talking, a black shadow swam along the ground where the cave entrance of the rock wall collapsed. It seemed like a fish at the bottom of the water, slowly approaching.
"who are you?"
Seeing such a strange thing, Qiye's hair stood on end.
"You don't need to know, you just need to know the 'Black Demon Flame'."
Nearby, the black shadow on the ground suddenly stood up, forming a three-dimensional human-shaped outline.
His whole body was pitch black, he had no facial features, and even his limbs were very blurry.
"Black Demon Flame...are you from the Sky Devouring Clan!?"
Qiye woke up immediately. The one who knew about the Black Demon Flame must be the Tiantian Clan. It seems that after he destroyed the great protector's soul seal, he really attracted his clan members.
However, when he was clearly going to die, why did the Tiantian Clan still save him?
Don't you want to avenge the Great Protector?
"Haha...you really know about the Tiantian Clan. It seems that the young boy Ao was killed by you."
The dark figure's voice was slightly low, but it seemed that he didn't care about Ao's death.
"Since you are from the Tiantian Clan and are here to avenge the Great Protector, you can kill or behead me as you wish!"
Qiye said with a decisive tone, he didn't hope to escape death today, he was about to die just now anyway.
There was no hope anymore, so naturally he spoke very simply and decisively.
"Tsk, tsk, you are young, but your bones are quite strong. Don't worry, I won't kill you. Not only will I not kill you, I will also save you..."
Shadow Shark leaned down and looked directly at Qiye with the only pair of bloody eyes on his dark face.
"Save me? Why?"
Qiye said in shock
Unexpectedly, I thought it was a dead end, but I didn't expect that it would suddenly take a turn, and my fate was really unpredictable.
"You don't need to know. In fact...saving you is also saving us..."
Shadow Shark murmured thoughtfully.
Although the voice was very soft, it was still heard by Qiye.
This made him even more puzzled: The Tiantian Clan is so powerful, do they still need to be saved?
Before he could think about it, Shadow Shark raised his hand and pointed, and a golden pill instantly flew into Qiye's mouth.
After the elixir entered his abdomen, a warm current spread out, and the cold feeling of being on the verge of death was completely gone.
The crack in the spiritual world of Dantian also slowly closed under the nourishment of the golden warm current. Finally, the entire spiritual world wall was completely healed and no longer leaked.
The remaining spiritual power and black demonic flames flowed back into the Huntian Wheel.
The bloody wound on Qiye's abdomen that was incised by the Tooth-Burying Centipede's jaw teeth has all healed.
The organs that had been crushed and crushed all over his body were filling up again like white bones growing flesh.
The essence bones that were shattered by the impact have been connected unbreakably.
How amazing! Amazing!
Such a serious injury, even if it is repaired in the Hunyuan Refining Realm, it will take many days to get better. Unexpectedly, this mysterious shadow man in front of me can recover as before in just a few minutes with just one pill, or even worse. in the past……
The Tiantian clan is really powerful!
Qiye was extremely shocked.
"W-who are you!?"
Qiye was so shocked that he couldn't speak coherently, and asked the question again that he had asked three times.
He really couldn't believe it. If this mysterious man was really from the Tiantian Clan, why would he want to save him?
