Volume 1: The Beginning of the Storm Chapter 31: Nether Panther (Part I)
The bottom of the cliff seems to be another world, completely empty.
The world at the bottom of the cliff was filled with darkness. However, compared with ordinary people, the physical fitness of martial artists has been greatly enhanced. For them, knowing things in the dark is like eating and drinking at bed.
The pitch-black cliff bottom was also wrapped in a cold aura.
There is no sunlight to touch it, and what grows here are some plants that only exist on the dark side of the world. In a cold and damp environment, the surrounding rocks are covered with black moss. This black moss is a plant that grows in the shade. This plant is no different from ordinary moss in the dark, except for one difference, which is the extreme fear of light. Once they touch the light, their whole body tightens and takes on the form of a small ball.
Ye Xiao walked along the road for a while, but still didn't find any path back to the ground.
Trembling –
A subtle cold and terrifying voice came from behind Ye Xiao. Despite this, it was still keenly captured by Ye Xiao. After it reached his ears, it made him feel creepy.
Ye Xiao hurriedly turned around, but he didn't notice anything unusual. But the voice that came to my ears before was so real that it could never be an illusion. Raising his vigilance, he took a few steps forward, and Jeon was still in a tense state.
Trembling –
The strange voice sounded again.
As soon as the voice sounded this time, Ye Xiao turned around instantly. However, what he saw really shocked him.
Behind him, two green lights appeared strangely!And these two green lights were moving slowly, and they seemed to be getting closer and closer to Ye Xiao.
This is not a cemetery, where does the ghost fire come from?
After taking a closer look, Ye Xiao found that those two green lights were actually two eyes with green light! They were a spirit beast living at the bottom of a cold cliff.
Under such difficult conditions, there will still be spirit beasts!
Ye Xiao couldn't help but be surprised, but what he was more concerned about was the ninety-nine-out of nine-for-one spirit beast in front of him.
The green eyes made Ye Xiao feel a little familiar. The cloud-piercing leopard I had seen before had a pair of green eyes.
He guessed right. The spirit beast in front of him belongs to the same source as the cloud-piercing leopard.
Like the cloud-piercing leopard, this spirit animal also has rapid speed and vigorous skills. But because they live in the dark, they have another name - Nether Panthers.
Having lived in the dark for a long time, the Nether Leopard has produced a mutation that is not small compared to the Cloudpiercing Leopard.
Their fur is completely pitch-black, but their fangs are not as sharp and narrow as those of the cloud-piercing leopard. But the dark environment can often distort the mind of a life. As long as the Nether Panthers see their prey, they will go crazy and will not stop until they don't eat their prey until there is no scum left.
This is also where the Nether Panther is more terrifying than the Cloudpiercing Leopard. In the face of the cloud-piercing leopard, there is still the qualification to escape. But in the face of the Nether Panthers in the dark, unless you can find a way out of the darkness and into the light, you will have to gamble to the death. Because this is the common trait of creatures who live in darkness all year round: fear of light, and can only exist in darkness forever.
However, Ye Xiao has not found a way out after walking for so long, let alone a way out of the darkness at the bottom of the cliff.
Sure enough, after discovering Ye Xiao's breath, the originally calm air became restless.
The Nether Panther's pant was even stronger. At this time, its eyes were full of greed, and it was looking at Ye Xiao carefully, as if it was looking at its own dinner. This feeling made Ye Xiao creepy and extremely uncomfortable.
How long has it been since he awakened his spiritual power, is he going to die here? The dog will jump off the wall when he is in a hurry, and in the face of the Netherworld Panther, he may still have a chance to live. The long sword that had accompanied him for many years was pulled out of the space ring by Ye Xiao and held it tightly in his hand.
Now Ye Xiao, there is only one choice, and that is - war!
One person and one leopard, staring at each other, each facing each other. In an instant, the Netherworld Black Panther moved, and at the same time, Ye Xiao also moved.
The sharp claws of the Nether Black Panther tore through the wind at hand and rushed towards Ye Xiao. And Ye Xiao's side, with the long sword in his hand, swung and rushed forward.
A man and a leopard collided violently together, and a fierce battle ensued.
Basic sword style, bayonet!
Basic sword style, sword splitting!
Basic sword style, flirting with the sword!
Basic sword style, hanging sword!
Basic sword style, point sword!
Basic sword style, collapse sword!
Basic sword style, cut the sword!
The seven-style basic sword style was used by Ye Xiao with one move. In this case, it is also a great opportunity to hone your swordsmanship, provided that your life is not harmed.
The seven-move sword style followed the trend, as if it had all hit the sharp claws of the Netherworld Black Panther in an instant.
Ding Ding –
The sword collided with the claw, quickly separated, and then slammed into each other again. Seven collisions, seven loud grinding sounds erupted.
One man and one leopard, after the end of this wave of offensive, each retreated.
However, Ye Xiao's hands were constantly trembling violently at an amplitude visible to the naked eye. The powerful force of the Nether Black Panther almost shook his long sword out of his hand. The strong strength that is difficult to resist also shows that the strength of this Netherworld Black Panther is better than his own, and it is far from what he can be hostile to now.
However, Nether Panthers don't care about that. In its eyes, there was only Ye Xiao, the prey.
The black shadow pounced again, but Ye Xiao began to be overwhelmed. I have awakened my spiritual power, but I can't even get out of this cliff bottom?
Fight! Ye Xiao didn't care about three seven twenty-one, and poured all the spiritual power of the mortal spirit realm into the long sword.
"Evil beast, go and die!"
Basic sword style, bayonet!
The long sword stabbed towards the Netherworld Black Panther at the speed of a meteor, and slammed into the leopard's claws again. But this time, Ye Xiao was not as lucky as before, the long sword in his hand was instantly shocked out by the powerful force and hit the ground. The Nether Black Panther jumped up directly, stepped on the sword that Ye Xiao had taken off, and directly stepped on it into two.
In the eyes of the Nether Panther, the sword in Ye Xiao's hand was his fang. Unloading the sword in Ye Xiao's hand was tantamount to pulling out his fangs. The prey that has lost its fangs can only be captured obediently, and only eaten by itself and become the food in its own belly, so what is there to fight back and resist?
Broken?!His own sword, broken?!Ye Xiao couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it. The precious sword that accompanied him throughout his childhood, thus ended its mission. What's more, this is the only sword in his body. If you lose this sword, you will be bare-handed, defenseless, and without any blade.
But before he could feel sad, a huge leopard claw pounced on him again.
Ye Xiao secretly said that it was not good, regardless of the soreness on his arm, the Bafang Sword Step walked out.
Seeing that the leopard's claw was only a few inches away from Ye Xiao's face, at the last moment, the ghostly body technique brought by the Bafang Sword Step allowed Ye Xiao to evade the attack of the Netherworld Black Panther in an instant.
The Netherworld Black Panther stood firm on the ground, raised his hand to look at his claws, and then looked at Ye Xiao in the distance, looking extremely dazed. Obviously, it was curious how this human, who was so weak in its eyes, managed to escape its claws.
But despite this, the Netherworld Black Panther would not let go of its prey easily, and in a short period of time, it pounced, grabbed, and cut towards Ye Xiao again, but without exception, it was all flashed like a ghost by Ye Xiao's eight-sided sword steps at the cost of greatly consuming spiritual power.
Ye Xiao's actions were completely regarded as a naked provocation by the Netherworld Black Panther.
Roar –
Furious, the Netherworld Black Panther roared, and a terrifying aura with darkness spread out in an instant, making people depressed to the point of suffocation. In the dark world, these dark creatures that came into being are the masters and kings.
A dark aura directly locked on Ye Xiao. The next moment, before Ye Xiao could even see clearly, the figure of the Netherworld Black Panther disappeared in place like a ghost.
But a keen sense of crisis made him subconsciously take a step back.
A black leopard claw tore through the wind and jerked hard from where he had been, passing him right now.
The body of the Netherworld Black Panther pounced in front of Ye Xiao's eyes, but as soon as it touched the ground, it disappeared like a ghost again. This time, its aura seemed to completely merge with the darkness around it, disappearing without a trace.
But with Ye Xiao's current strength, it is impossible to detect its aura no matter what.
This offensive came most unexpectedly. Ye Xiao didn't even have time to step out of the Bafang Sword Step, and he instantly fell into a predicament.
Poof-
A huge leopard claw with infinite strength slapped on Ye Xiao's back, slapping him directly away. Ye Xiao's body was like a kite with a broken string, flying upside down in the air, crashing straight into the rock behind him, and finally rolled to the ground, falling to the ground. Holding his heart in pain, a mouthful of blood involuntarily spurted out of Ye Xiao's mouth.
The black figure of the Netherworld Black Panther appeared in Ye Xiao's line of sight and walked towards him step by step. In the eyes of the Netherworld Black Panther, Ye Xiao at this time was no different from the food in his mouth, and he had no chance to escape from the palm of his hand.
Ye Xiao struggled to stand up, but the blood at the corner of his mouth still couldn't stop flowing down.
The reborn flesh is indeed stronger than before. If it was Ye Xiao before, this palm would definitely smash him to pieces. But now his situation is not much better, and even if he is not dead, it seems that it is only a matter of time now.
Did you just accept your fate? The sword in his hand is broken, what else is he going to fight?
Sword?
But as soon as this thought came out, Ye Xiao suddenly remembered something. Didn't little Lori give herself a sword in the Light Spirit Realm before, but in her heyday, she had to exhaust all her strength to lift it, and with her current posture, it was impossible to have a chance to lift it. Even if you try once, you will vomit blood and die because you can't bear the pressure like Tarzan.
But when his life is hanging by a thread, how can Ye Xiao care so much?
Daddy once said that as long as you try everything, there may be a glimmer of hope. But if you don't try, it's 100% hopeless, 100% impossible.
If you don't take out that sword, your result will definitely be death. If he took out the Bright Sanctuary Sword, maybe there was a 1 in 1,000 or 1 in 10,000 chance of survival.
But Ye Xiao, who was full of enthusiasm, immediately realized a problem. Because Ye Xiao didn't know where the Bright Sanctuary Sword existed, and how he should let it appear. I saw the Bright Sanctuary Sword in the Bright Spirit Realm before, and it was all the operation of Xiao Lori.
The distance between the Netherworld Panther and Ye Xiao is shrinking a little bit with the pace of the Netherworld Panther.
Bright Sanctuary Sword!
Ye Xiao shouted out the name of the Bright Sanctuary Sword in his heart, praying for it to appear at this critical juncture to save his life.
As if feeling Ye Xiao's call, the next moment, a dazzling golden color appeared out of thin air. The slender sword body of the Bright Sanctuary Sword revealed its mysterious figure from the space in front of Ye Xiao's eyes.
