Chapter 183: Companionship

"The aura of the wood attribute here is too strong, you have to be careful, don't underestimate the grass and trees here. โ€

Yan Ci nodded immediately, and said with palpitations, "Was that a bloodthirsty thorn just now?" The speed is so fast, but it seems to be a little different. โ€

He scratched his head, "What I saw in my epiphany, it seems to be smaller than this." โ€

"Not bloodthirsty thorns. โ€

Before Chu Xiaoyue set off, she had asked Shen Wanhe about the situation in the Thorns Secret Realm, the Elixir Sect had a rule, after the monks who entered the trial of the Borui Hall were not allowed to reveal the situation in the secret realm to others after leaving the secret realm, after all, the number of secret realms was always limited, if anyone who broke through the secret realm told the situation everywhere, wouldn't it be that the secret books were flying all over the sky?

Everyone knows the rules of Borui Palace, and Shen Wanhe, as a big disciple, is even more unlikely to take the lead in breaking the rules, after half a day of thinking and psychological construction, he finally lowered his voice and briefly described the characteristics of bloodthirsty thorns to her.

The bloodthirsty thorn body is not big, the whole body is pitch black, the branches are thin, it looks no different from the dilapidated dry branches, it is very good at camouflaging itself, but once it smells blood, it will suddenly attack, once it is close, the barbs on the thorns will immediately pierce into the flesh, and the barbs are attached with toxins that paralyze the brain, if you can't break free at the first time, you will immediately lose consciousness, be firmly tied and unable to move, let it suck blood wantonly, in less than half an hour, a monk will be sucked dry of blood, into a skin and bones.

"This thing should be an iron core entanglement, but I didn't expect it to grow so big, the things in the Thorn Secret Realm are affected by the wood attribute, and the strength is even stronger, you must be up to the spirit!"

After finding the stream, the two walked along the water for a long time, and solved a few obstacles along the way, and found a lot of good materials for alchemy, but the bloodthirsty thorns had no clue.

The sky is dim, the stream passes through the forest, the trees around are knotted, and there are still layers of shadows overhead, this forest does not know how big it is, the two of them have walked in the deep forest for so long, but the environment has not changed, and as time goes by, there is more and more anxiety in the heart.

"Sister, are we lost, we've been walking for a long time, so we haven't gone out yet, when will it be a head if we go on like this? โ€

Yan Ci walked ahead in frustration, waved his knife and cut down a bush that was blocking the way, and accidentally cut a small hole in the back of his hand by a branch in his hand, the young man frowned and shook his hand absently.

"Don't dump it!"

Chu Xiaoyue walked behind, but it was too late to stop it, a small bead of blood slashed in the air, at this time, only a rough cry sounded, and the wind behind him immediately sounded a whistle, Chu Xiaoyue stepped forward, pulled Yan Ci and rolled on the spot, before the two of them got up, the rancid smell had already drifted away, and when they looked back, the place where the two had just settled was already rotten leaves and dead branches, and white smoke rose from the ground, with a foul smell.

Chu Xiaoyue threw out a formation disc with her backhand and shrouded the two of them, and the white smoke touched the edge of the array disk, as if they were isolated by an invisible wall.

Just now, the two were almost stuck together, Chu Xiaoyue naturally didn't care so much, and stood up as soon as she twisted her body, but Yan Ci seemed to be in a trance for a moment, sat up in a daze, and only stared at her back stunned.

"It's a rotting vulture! Bloodthirsty Thorns must be nearby!"

As she was talking, a big bird monster with bony wings and protruding eyes and a hairless body rushed towards them with a scream, the spirit sword in Chu Xiaoyue's hand flashed, and the three-foot firelight illuminated the small space, and then, she didn't hesitate anymore, and flew directly towards the Devouring Vulture!

Yan Ci seemed to have just reacted at this time, and hurriedly shouted, "The Devouring Vulture is a companion beast of bloodthirsty thorns!

In mid-air, Chu Xiaoyue slashed at the left wing of the devouring vulture with a sword, the devouring vulture was huge, but the movements were very flexible, the body was deflected, and the firelight swept away the tips of its wings, and the devouring vulture screamed dumbly when it saw this, as if it was very proud, and as soon as the sharp claws were extended, the sharp claw tips flashed with dark green light and were about to nail into the girl's shoulders.

At this moment, the flame swelled out of thin air like a blazing fire, and climbed up to the left wing of the devouring vulture with a thud, instantly enveloping the entire bird's body in flames.

In the array, Yan Ci's mouth was wide open, staring at a flame in the air, Chu Xiaoyue suddenly felt her heart skip a beat, and when she looked back, she saw a black shadow that had already circled behind Yan Ci, and then there was a buzzing sound, the earth trembled, and the smell of the earth in the forest flew into the air with the dust, and the defensive array was hit hard, and at this moment, the ripples were stirring, and it was obviously about to break.

Chu Xiaoyue was in a hurry, she knew in her heart that this defensive array could only resist the blow of the Jindan monk, that is, at most, it could only help Yan Ci defend against a bloodthirsty thorn attack, so she was so anxious to attack the Devouring Vulture just now, the companion beast and the host were both advancing and retreating together, to protect Yan Ci, it was necessary to fight the Devouring Vulture quickly!

And now, perhaps seeing that his companion beast was hit hard, the bloodthirsty thorns changed their style of only being an ambush and a yin man behind them, and actually took the initiative to attack them!

Surrounded by flames, the Devourer was still howling and struggling in mid-air, and the bloodthirsty thorns could not strike a single blow, and several thorns crept up the defensive formation, tightening the branches. Yan Ci seemed to see that Chu Xiaoyue was in the midst of a fierce battle, afraid that she would be distracted, but at this time, she was silent, holding a long sword in front of her, the fine sweat on her forehead had already come out, and her eyes were staring at the branches that were spreading on the defensive array, and the defensive array was rippling and stirring, and it was already crumbling!

No! It's too late!

A small clicking sound came into her eardrums, and in the next second, the defense array suddenly shattered, and a black thorny arrow flew out, and countless barbs instantly grew on the thorn branches, flashing with a strange dark green light straight to Yan Ci's heart!

Chu Xiaoyue didn't wait for the Devouring Vulture to breathe, a plain white little hand reached directly into the fire, steadily grabbed the throat of the Devouring Vulture, and then her figure flashed, and she quickly swept in front of Yan Ci.

"Poofโ€”"

A tiny, sharp sound piercing flesh.

Yan Ci stood beside him, looking at the girl in front of him who seemed to fall from the sky.

A trace of blood ran from the corner of her mouth, and her left hand clutched a thorn that had been pierced into her shoulder.

Chu Xiaoyue shook her right hand, and only then did she have time to crush the throat of the devouring vulture, the huge devouring vulture had been burned beyond recognition, the severed throat was smoking, and the bulging eyes of the inevitable could no longer be distinguished.

"Sister! Bloodthirsty thorns are poisonous!"

Yan Ci's face was completely bloodless at this moment, and he was about to slash at Jing Tiao with a sword in both hands.

"You're standing here. Chu Xiaoyue threw the rotting vulture in her hand to the ground, and the flaming long sword appeared in the palm of her hand, "Your chance, you are optimistic." โ€

The firelight was like a sunset, illuminating the girl's white and beautiful side face, Chu Xiaoyue's eyebrows and eyes were firm, unstoppable, her left hand held the thorn that was still twisting forward, the slightest blood between her fingers crossed her wrist across her white arm, and her right hand held the long sword horizontally, the flames were bright like the light of breaking the sky, and slashed at the hideous and twisted thorns between her left hand and shoulder!
