Chapter 332: One Leaf
The light penetrated through the heavy eyelids, stimulating Su Yue's pupils one after another, gradually dragging her consciousness back from the darkness. She struggled slightly, but the tingling pain from all over her body almost made her faint again.
Taking a deep breath, he barely opened his eyes, only to see a ruined ruin. A cold and stiff slender hand was placed on her chest, Su Yue's heart trembled, she held it tightly, turned her face sideways, and just saw Chen Xiaoshuang's pale and dead pretty face.
"Little Sister Shuang...... No...... Little sister, wake up, open your eyes and look at me...... Woo woo woo woo ...... "Tears couldn't stop rolling down, Su Yue didn't care about the sharp pain of the wound, and gently held Chen Xiaoshuang's cheek with trembling hands, but from under the almost stiff skin, he couldn't feel half the temperature of life.
Chen Xiaoshuang, who was lying beside Su Yue, actually only had the upper half of her body, and there was an extremely smooth incision below the waist, which was the injury left by Sauron's dimensional slash, and half of her lower body and half of the blood in her body were swept into the disordered spatial rift.
Su Yue hugged Chen Xiaoshuang's corpse and burst into tears, in fact, if she hadn't been pushed aside by Chen Xiaoshuang at the critical moment, then the person who died would have been herself. Despite this, the scattered space debris still left a dozen wounds of various sizes on her body.
Not far away, the sky was covered with colorful mist, and the visibility was less than five meters. From time to time, there were flashes of light in the mist, and the roar was incessant. Su Yue knew that it was Shi Yuxuan who was fighting with countless pursuers with his own strength.
Their memories were restored a day earlier, when Pope Robben had killed the Demon Lord of Lust, the initiator. But at that time, they had already started their escape journey with the help of Shi Yuxuan. No one thought that the magical kingdom of Bracada, which has always remained neutral, is the real base camp of the Nightmares, and behind the so-called Heavenly Cloud Tower, which leads the Titan Titan to descend, is the dimensional passage of the Nightmare to the Earth.
When Su Yue and his party arrived in Bracada as Aveli envoys, they were immediately imprisoned, along with several pseudo-king-level powerhouses from Millekr in the dungeon. Perhaps in order not to startle the snakes, the Nightmare did not immediately execute the captured Nightmare Hunters, and only the ordinary Aveli Guards who were not living souls were killed on the first day.
The days of captivity lasted until Shi Yuxuan's arrival. After the realm was stabilized, Shi Yuxuan had an extremely keen sense, and although Bracada sent a welcoming guard of honor, she still discovered the danger hidden in the city early. With her superb poison skills, Shi Yuxuan easily broke through the encirclement of the other party, and secretly killed a horse pistol that night, and took advantage of the night to sneak into the capital of Bracada, the city of Caminola.
Although the city of Caminola is the base camp established by the Nightmare Demons in this Nightmare Realm, the main combat forces have been sent to various places to complete the hunt against humans, and the only super Nightmare-level Prince Sauron is maintaining the teleportation array of the plane passage. Therefore, Shi Yuxuan sneaked all the way in. Until she saw Su Yue and the Chen family brothers and sisters in the dungeon.
However, since the memories of these people have not been recovered at this time, they are not very trusting in the face of Shi Yuxuan's unilateral rescue, especially those captured by Millerkel, because they are still convinced that they are citizens of Bracada, not only did not cooperate with their actions, but alarmed the guards of the dungeon at a critical moment.
Countless armies gathered as if they appeared out of thin air, and in the chaos, Shi Yuxuan tried her best to only bring Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang to break through. Then, all the remaining Nightmare Hunters, including Chen Zihao, were mercilessly slaughtered by the Nightmare Demons.
In the face of the encirclement and interception of Bracada's national strength, the three women fought and retreated, and Shi Yuxuan, who had reached the supreme realm, was also hunted and killed. It's no wonder that since the identities of the three of them have been exposed, the enemies they are chasing and killing are at least the strength of elite apostles, and the high-level demons that are usually rare in the past are also like being stabbed in a honeycomb, constantly emerging.
It wasn't until a day ago, after Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang recovered their memories, that Shi Yuxuan's pressure was dispersed a little, and the escape speed of the three of them was much faster. But at this juncture, the transmission of the plane passage came to an end, and Prince Sauron, who had his free hand, personally participated in the pursuit.
Prior to this, although it was not a careless enemy, Shi Yuxuan thought that even against Prince Sauron, who was known as the strongest man in the Nofasa Kingdom, he had at least a fifty percent chance of winning, even if the other party had countless subordinates to help, if he wanted to escape, he should not have much difficulty.
However, as soon as they fought, Shi Yuxuan knew that she was wrong, and it was very wrong. The fully formed "Five Directions Poison Cloud Array" couldn't even take the opponent's one-dimensional slash, and it was blasted to pieces. Under the power of Sauron's rules to control space, Shi Yuxuan's Ten Thousand Poison Demon Heart Sutra, which can eat all things, has no power to resist. No matter what kind of toxin it is, it will be easily swallowed up by the spatial black hole that suddenly appears.
Fortunately, at the moment of life and death, Shi Yuxuan finally broke through and successfully combined all poisons into a "colorless poison" that could be corroded by even a spatial barrier, which was worthy of this surprise attack by Sauron.
Although the three women were not completely cornered, in fact their situation did not change in the slightest. A super nightmare like Sauron, whose strength has reached its peak, can affect the power of that terrifying spatial rule with every blow, and the only colorless poison that Shi Yuxuan can compete with has to condense the essence of ten thousand poisons, so every time he parries, he has to do his best, and this kind of fight is an extremely unfair consumption in itself.
Fortunately, Sauron seemed to have to take care of the dimensional passages in the Tower of Babel, so he would return to Caminola City once every time he chased them for a while, which gave them some respite. However, Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang could both find that Shi Yuxuan's aura that protected them was weakening at a visible speed with the naked eye, although they still forced a smile to show comfort when facing them, they could both see the unconcealable tiredness in Shi Yuxuan's eyes.
Finally, when they retreated to the town of Akina on the border between Bracada and northern Erathia, Sauron suddenly appeared like a ghost, and when Shi Yuxuan didn't have time to react, he slashed at the defenseless Su Yue, and at this critical moment, Chen Xiaoshuang reluctantly saved her at the cost of his own life.
I don't know how long she cried, Su Yue felt a dizziness in her brain, the wound on her chest was still bleeding profusely, she subconsciously reached out to cover the wound, but suddenly, her fingers touched a hard object, and a cool feeling invaded the bone marrow from her fingers, which made her feel excited, and her brain instantly cleared up a lot.
With trembling hands, he took out the object from his bosom, and when he held it in the palm of his hand, it looked like a leaf carved from jade, but when he looked closely, he found that the leaf could not have been carved from any kind of object. On the delicate leaves, the brilliance flows, whenever you look closely, you will feel that this leaf is changing every moment, growing, maturing, withering, withering, every moment, this leaf will go through a cycle from life to death, but the reincarnation is infinite, this leaf seems to be eternal and immortal.
Su Yue's eyes were a little stupid, she seemed to remember the origin of this leaf, but when she thought about it, she couldn't believe it. Strictly speaking, the leaves came from a dream of hers, one that had been haunting her since she came to Bracada. In the dream she saw herself, or a woman who looked exactly like herself, and every time she would hand such a leaf to herself, and her mouth would be anxiously talking to herself, but every time she woke up, the conversation between the other party and her would be completely forgotten. In a trance, she felt that there might be some kind of power hidden in this small leaf that could make her stronger, maybe it could save them from the crisis at the moment, but in the dark, she felt a sincere fear of this leaf, maybe once she stretched out her hand of prayer to this power, something irreversible would happen.
Not far away, Shi Yuxuan's irrepressible muffled snort came, Su Yue looked up in fright, but saw that the colorful fog array around her was rapidly dispersing, through the fog, countless shadowy figures could already be seen in the distance, obviously the reinforcements brought by the demons had surrounded them.
"As long as you can get out of trouble, as long as you can help Senior Shi...... Even if you die immediately, what can you do? Su Yue smiled sadly, slowly put down Chen Xiaoshuang's body, and the mysterious and gorgeous leaf in her hand was held up in front of her eyes, and after one last look, she swallowed it in one gulp.
A stony leaf is not suitable for swallowing, but this mysterious leaf melts in her mouth, and as soon as it enters her mouth, it turns into a stream of heat, and quickly rushes into her abdomen, and then it seems that a bomb is detonated in her body, and in a trance she really thinks that her body has been blown into countless particles, because at this moment, her soul seems to have lost its weight, and it staggers towards a dark void.
……
"Do you still want to struggle uselessly? Mankind! Prince Sauron, dressed in golden armor, stood in the air, looking down at Shi Yuxuan who was struggling to stand up in a huge depression below.
At this moment, Shi Yuxuan has long since lost her former demeanor, her long hair has been cut in pieces, the clothes and armor on her body are also tattered like a beggar's coat, and her exposed fair skin is full of different shades of blood, a large amount of blood stains stained half of her body, and her delicate face is even more sickly sallow.
The blow just now Shi Yuxuan only used the colorless poison to dissolve seventy percent, and the remaining thirty percent of the damage hit her without reservation. It's not that her colorless poison has lost its effectiveness, but because of the continuous fighting, the nightmare energy in her body has already shown signs of running out of oil, and when she just forcibly extracted it, it actually made her eyes blur for a moment.
"Is it a senseless struggle? Hehe, at least I'm still standing, I still have enough power in my hands to threaten you, if you don't believe me, you can try to get closer. Shi Yuxuan smiled faintly, gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her thumb, and raised her chin defiantly at Sauron on top of her head.
Sauron smiled coldly, it was not ready to continue to attack, because the time to maintain the dimensional passage was approaching again, and the current tenacious human had obviously reached the limit of running out of oil, and the rest was left to his subordinates.
"Kill her!" Sauron shouted to his men around him, and with a tug of his cloak, his body ready to melt into the void behind him. However, it was only halfway through its movements, and then froze in place, as it felt a force that moved it suddenly appear behind Shi Yuxuan, in the colorful poisonous mist that was about to completely dissipate.
