Chapter 136: In-depth 6
The blade flashed like lightning, whining through the air.
The Blade Guard's attack method is very straightforward, that is, it uses its limbs that are no different from the blade, and the power, speed, and angle of the attack are perfect.
Xin Yuan didn't dare to be careless about this, after all, it was the last defensive force set up in front of the axis area, especially before the sandworms, they also used the actual confirmation of the difficulty of this kind of sharp blade guard, not to mention that if it dragged on for a while, the tentacle tree root would come again, and attack them with these sharp blade guards.
The right palm slashed out, drawing a mysterious arc in the air, just hitting the side of the arm cut by the blade guard, and the crescent-like sharp edge blasted out from the edge of the palm, completely deflecting the arm of the blade guard and resounding with a strong sound of gold and iron.
Xin Yuan frowned slightly, originally he wanted to directly cut off the arm of the Blade Guard at once, but he didn't expect that the Blade Guard's body was even stronger than he expected, and there were obvious signs of active fire running in his body, which added to the hardness of its body.
His mind was spinning, but his subordinates didn't stop, took a step forward, clenched his right hand into a fist, and hit the position that had just hit the arm of the blade guard. The blade guard, who had already been cut off, was completely unbalanced by this blow, and its body was tilted and reversed, but at the same time, its feet took advantage of the momentum to pry up, stabbing Xin Yuan's chest and abdomen, and it seemed that it was coming to disembowel him.
But Xin Yuan had already prepared, and with a twist, he made a detour to the side, causing the blade guard's counterattack to fall into the air, and he took the opportunity to punch out, hitting the blade guard's head.
Hiss!
The phantage of the Bloody Hunter suddenly appeared behind him, a joint limb piercing out like a spear, the sharpness of which merged with his fist.
There was a muffled sound, and a large hole pierced through the center of the blade guard's face, and the scene behind could be seen from the front. The light in its eyes flickered a few times before it dimmed completely, and in the next second, its body began to melt, turning into a viscous resin-like liquid, which fell to the ground in a large heap, and then flowed into the hidden ditch in the corner of the passage, and soon disappeared.
Looking at the place where the blade guard disappeared, Xin Yuan was thoughtful.
In terms of physical strength, the Blade Guard is definitely D-class, but now it doesn't have a sense of self-independence, and the source fire is more like driving energy that runs according to the established trajectory, a bit similar to the BUFF-style external structure that Parrion added to the monsters he controls, and it is impossible to have the complete structure of a real D-class.
In general, it is okay to count as an inferior version of the D-level primary ability according to the combat effectiveness, but this thing is originally a consumable, and the fight is quantity rather than quality, and if he really encounters a dozen at once, Xin Yuan will also feel a headache.
There was a muffled clicking sound behind him.
Xin Yuan followed the sound and saw that the sandworm had smashed the head of the sharp-bladed guard he had dealt with into pieces, a little later than Xin Yuan.
Like the bladed guard who was eliminated by Xin Yuan, the bladed guard with a broken head quickly melted completely and flowed down the dark ditch in the corner.
"We need to get out right away, it's going to be a hassle if we're locked up." The sandworm suggested.
"Okay." Xin Yuan nodded and was about to speak, but his eyes instantly became solemn.
I saw that in the passage behind the sandworm, just like the previous appearance of the Blade Guard, another water droplet was rapidly approaching and growing larger and larger along the ceiling, and it was obvious that the Blade Guard was produced or carried in this way.
The sandworm also saw this scene from the passage behind Xin Yuan.
Without speaking, the two of them rushed into the passage in front of them at the same time, sprinting forward as fast as they could - the left and right sides were the passages guarded by the blades, no need to think about it, and retreating would only be forced back into the previous labyrinth passage, further and further away from the axis area, there was no point in wandering around in that kind of place, so there was only forward.
A moment later, they heard a slight noise behind them, the movement of the Blade Guard.
With this speed of sprinting, the previous intersection was quickly left behind, and it was soon out of sight, but the pursuit of the blade guards did not slow down at all, and it seemed that they had locked on.
The walls were rapidly receding, even forming a blurred shadow. Xin Yuan and the sandworm kept turning straight ahead, rushing along this seemingly endless passage, but the movement behind them was not only not small, but getting bigger and bigger, and it was obvious that the number of pursuing blade guards was increasing.
During the run, the distance between the two of them was also deliberately slowly separated, needless to say, they both knew that if anyone dared to make a move at this time, the other would desperately pull the other down and die together. The relationship between the two is not a close partner, not long ago they met someone who had to work hard, nothing to say, and at this critical time, they will naturally prevent the other party from using themselves as backs to block the pursuing blade guards.
After running for nearly twenty minutes, there was finally a fork in front of the passage - two forks extended to both sides, one left and one right.
Xin Yuan and the sandworm glanced at each other, and then Xin Yuan turned to the right at the crossing, and the sandworm turned left, and they each chose a direction to escape very tacitly.
However, there is a saying that when you are chased by a bear, it is not the most important thing to run over the bear, as long as you can run past your companion.
The people who entered the passage in both directions did not continue to speed up and escape, but invariably stuck to the wall and stopped, each showing their skills, and the figures of the two disappeared almost at the same time.
But there is another saying, that is, in fact, it is not the most important thing to run or not to run your companion, as long as your companion falls and you can continue to run.
So a moment later, a whistling sound poured into the channel chosen by Xin Yuan, and the source fire power that burst out from the D-level ability suddenly caused the entire channel to fall into a chaotic energy flow, just let the energy flow rage, but Xin Yuan's figure just didn't appear, as if he was far away from here.
At the same time, a dazzling arc of light like a crescent moon also struck the passage chosen by the sandworm, silently but unusually fast, flashing through the passage. A moment later, a crack suddenly appeared in the air, and a piece of cloth that was black and silver fell, revealing the sandworm's unusually ugly face, and then he immediately turned around and continued to run without looking back.
Immediately after that, several sharp-bladed guards rushed to the fork, and after a slight pause, they all turned and chased in the direction where the sandworm had fled.
The fleeing side is fast, and the chasing side is not slow either.
The movements of the pursuers and fugitives quickly faded away, becoming lighter and lighter, and soon disappeared completely.
A few more minutes passed.
The phantom of the blood hunter's tightly contracted shadow quietly emerged, and the eight arthropods opened like flowers, and Xin Yuan walked out of it slowly.
Glancing at the passage in the direction of the sandworm, he turned around and walked in the direction of the passage he was in, with a steady, silent pace.
