Chapter 20: The Phantom of the Heavenly Dao
Luo Xiu and the others have been resting in place, talking about life and ideals together, and telling interesting stories about their past together, and before they knew it, it was already night.
When night falls, darkness envelops the forest, and if the forest looks like a docile sheep during the day, the forest at night is like a man-eating beast, full of fear of the unknown.
"Are you all ready?" Luo Xiu saw that the time was almost up, so he stood up and asked.
"Hmm. The group stood up and looked at the forest, then nodded.
"It's dangerous to stay in the forest for too long, so we chose to use the Demon Flame Burning Rhino to open the way and rush in one go, is there any problem?" After Luo Xiu finished speaking, his feet lit up and began to chant in a low voice.
A red light erupted from Luo Xiu's body, and with bursts of red thunder, the Demon Flame Burning Rhino descended on the earth with raging flames.
"What a cool guardian spirit. "Before, Liu Wansu had only seen the Demon Flame Burning Rhino in the distance, but now when he saw it up close, he felt shocked.
"Be careful, don't touch it!" Luo Xiu saw that Liu Wansu wanted to reach out and touch it, so he hurriedly stopped him.
Liu Wansu's hand stretched out into the air, and when he was about to touch the Demon Flame Burning Rhino, he was stopped by Luo Xiu, but the flames on the surface of the Demon Flame Burning Rhino's fur were like life, and they attacked Liu Wansu's hand.
"It's hot, oh oh oh, shhh Liu Wansu's gloves quickly burned, but fortunately he took off his gloves immediately so that he was not injured.
"The flames on the Flame Rhinoceros will protect it, and if an outside creature tries to touch it, the flames will attack at the first opportunity. After Luo Xiu finished speaking, his hands were sealed, and he began to chant the incantation.
"Reverse burning!" After Luo Xiu finished reading, the flames on the Demon Flame Burning Rhino suddenly became ferocious, if its flames were only burning fur before, now it seemed that the whole body was burning together.
The flames on the Flame Rhinoceros had raised the temperature around it a lot, and the Flame Rhinoceros was now like a large burning fireball, and the light of the flames on its body had already illuminated the surrounding environment.
"Let's go, follow the Flame Burning Rhino, and rush in. Luo Xiu pulled out the sword at his waist and said to everyone.
Like a flaming chariot, the Demon Flame Burning Rhino rushed into the forest, and Luo Xiu and his party also followed closely after the Demon Flame Burning Rhinoceros.
No matter what was in front of it, whether it was a big tree or a stone, it was like soft tofu in front of it, and the monsters in the forest were also alarmed and wanted to come forward to stop it.
But neither the bloodthirsty treemen nor some mutated animals could withstand the collision of the Demon Flame Burning Rhino, and wherever the Demon Flame Burning Rhino went, only a charred path and burning trees on both sides were left.
"Everyone move quickly, and the time for reverse burning is almost up. Luo Xiu suddenly felt a sudden exhaustion in his body, and he understood that the reverse burning was about to reach its limit.
Whether it is a summoner or a sealer, the guardian spirit they summon is the power of their own consumption, including the skill used by the guardian spirit, the duration of the guardian spirit, etc., all of which consume the power of the person who summoned it.
Reverse incineration is a very powerful skill, this skill is equivalent to strengthening the power of the flame again on the basis of ordinary flames, and the maximum temperature of the reverse incineration can even reach tens of thousands of degrees, but under normal circumstances, it can only be maintained at a few thousand degrees.
Luo Xiu and the others followed closely behind the Demon Flame Burning Rhino about 5 meters away, even at this distance, they could feel the high temperature on the Demon Flame Burning Rhinoceros.
"Luo Xiu, you're okay. Lu Jiaying suddenly saw that Luo Xiu's face was a little pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed from his forehead.
"It's fine. Luo Xiu said a little weakly, he also felt very strange, logically speaking, he had always controlled the temperature of the reverse burning at about 5,000 degrees, and it didn't take long, he shouldn't have this situation, but he felt that his strength consumption today was very fast.
"Why don't you stop, I think you're reaching your limit. Lu Jiaying said anxiously.
"No, you can't stop, there are too many monsters in this forest, if you stop, you will only be surrounded by them, and I won't be able to save you then." Luo Xiu wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, and then vigorously used his fingernails to stick the flesh on his fingers, using pain to keep himself awake.
"I'm sorry, we shouldn't have come because we were bothering you. The sweat on Luo Xiu's head was like rain, and it was the first time Lu Jiaying had seen Luo Xiu work so hard, so she said guiltily.
If it weren't for them, Luo Xiu could easily and slowly walk to that church alone, but because of their group of weak people who needed protection, Luo Xiu would be so difficult now.
"Don't say that, I really didn't expect the consumption to be so big. Luo Xiu said with a wry smile, his current physical exertion is too great, and his consciousness is already a little blurred.
"No, stop, Luo Xiu has a condition. Lu Jiaying saw that Luo Xiu couldn't hold on anymore, and hurriedly shouted.
"It's all said no. Although Luo Xiu said this, he couldn't run anymore and fell to the ground, and the Demon Flame Burning Rhino also disappeared because of Luo Xiu's physical exhaustion.
"You protect us, and I'll heal him. Lu Jiaying hurriedly took out her backpack, lit the portable lamp, and then quickly rummaged inside.
Seeing this, Liu Wansu and Chen Lianna hurriedly set up a fighting posture and watched every move around them.
Lu Jiaying rummaged for a long time, and finally found two pills, and then gave Luo Xiu to take it, after Luo Xiu took the medicine, he rested for a while, and finally regained consciousness.
"Great. Lu Jiaying saw Luo Xiu wake up and said excitedly.
"What's the matter, what are you crying about, I'm not dead. Luo Xiu woke up and saw Lu Jiaying's crying pear blossoms with rain, and couldn't help laughing.
"You can. Lu Jiaying wiped away her tears and said.
"Okay, I can't do it, but this forest is very strange, and I feel that in it, my physical strength and energy are reduced very quickly. "Luo Xiu can barely stand up, but it will take a long time to regain his combat effectiveness.
He opened his package, took out two pills from it and took them, these were powerful recovery pills, which could speed up his recovery, originally he was reluctant to use it, but now the situation is urgent, in this unknown forest, it is dangerous to stay for an extra second.
"Be careful, there is a situation!" At this moment, Liu Wansu suddenly picked up the big sword and put it on his chest and said.
In front of the woods where Luo Xiu and the others were, a black figure suddenly appeared, and he was slowly walking towards Luo Xiu's location step by step.
"Stop, who are you!" Liu Wansu shouted.
But the figure didn't pay attention to him, as if he hadn't heard Liu Wansu's voice at all, and still walked towards them with steps.
"Stop, or we'll do it!" Liu Wansu saw that the figure had no intention of stopping, so he clenched his big sword with both hands and prepared to attack.
"Drink!" Liu Wansu stepped on his feet and slashed towards the black shadow like a gust of wind, and Chen Lianna also followed his pace, accompanied by a burst of sword light, rushing towards the black shadow.
But after the two of them slashed with each other, it was like slashing into the air, and the black shadow did not suffer any damage.
"What's going on!" Liu Wansu was shocked, his sword seemed to pass directly through the black shadow.
"Stop. Lu Jiaying raised the watch in his hand and shot out two rays of light, but the black shadow still did not suffer any damage, and everyone saw Lu Jiaying's light penetrate his body and shoot on the big tree behind him.
Immune to both physical and magical attacks.
Everyone was shocked, what kind of monster was this.
After the dark shadow walked in, the moonlight suddenly shone down, and only then did everyone see the appearance of the person who came.
Judging from his face, this person is a man in his twenties, wearing a white robe, with long flowing hair, a face like a crown of jade, and a friendly smile on his face, which makes people look like a spring breeze, with great infectiousness, and the most important thing is that his figure looks a little illusory, like a phantom.
"You don't have to work in vain, you can't hurt him, and of course he can't hurt us. The moment Luo Xiu saw the man, he knew the man's identity.
"You can't say that, little brother sealer, if I want to take your lives, I can do it at any time. The man had a friendly smile on his face, but he said the most terrifying words.
"I said Heavenly Dao, why are you here just to meet me, the sealer? Then you can rest assured, I don't have the ability to seal you now. Luo Xiu smiled and said.
"Not really, it's just that my children were suddenly destroyed, so I came over to take a look. Tian Dao looked at the passage created by the Demon Flame Burning Rhino with brute force, and said with some sadness.
"That's really sorry, Tiandao, then do you want to take revenge on us, do you want to kill us now?" Luo Xiu stood up and stared at Tiandao and said.
Tiandao just looked at him lightly, and the two confronted each other quietly, and no one spoke again.
