Chapter 354: Barren Mountain

It constantly swayed its body, hissing from its mouth. Immediately, the bull's body trembled again. Another blood centipede once again made a large hole in the belly of the brute bull.

Nie Fei carefully observed for a long time before discovering the way the blood centipede entered the body of the brute bull. He couldn't help but feel a chill, and he found that the flesh and blood were blurry in the place where the wild cow was excreted. Obviously, the blood centipedes got into the body of the brute cow from there.

I didn't expect to find the mission target so easily this time, it seems that this mission is even easier than the last time!Nie Fei thought secretly.

Suddenly, Nie Fei rushed towards the brute bull. A chilling sword aura shot out of his hand, piercing through the blood centipede that was flaunting its might in its throat.

The sturdy armor couldn't stop Nie Fei's sharp sword qi at all, and a brilliant blood flower bloomed in the air. The blood centipede, which had lost its disclosure, had no support and slowly fell.

This is all thanks to the true solution of the sword path left by Dugu Qiuqiu, since he has reached the sword heart enlightenment, Nie Fei can also release powerful sword qi casually like Dugu Qiuqiu and Ziyunhou.

Seeing that the other blood centipede was killed, not only did it not have the slightest fear, but rushed towards Nie Fei at great speed.

The slender body was like a red lightning bolt, and before it could get close, a strong fishy wind was already rushing towards it, and the stench was unpleasant.

Nie Fei's right hand was raised high, slashing down as the Blood Centipede flew over. Split its head to pieces.

However, the hundred-legged insect dies and does not stiffen. Before dying, the Blood Centipede still made the last attack of its life against Nie Fei. With all its strength, it spewed out a stream of purple-black venom at Nie Fei, and the venom turned into a water arrow that stabbed Nie Fei's chest.

"Damn. Nie Fei couldn't help but curse. He wasn't interested in trying the unknown venom. The Brave Guild's mission doesn't mention the Blood Centipede in any way, other than that it is the target of the search. But the blood centipede that Nie Fei was looking forward to was the most poisonous thing in the world. Regardless of whether the two are related or not, everything is still done with caution.

This unexpected attack caught Nie Fei off guard, and he didn't have time to dodge it at all. In a hurry, Nie Fei could only reluctantly dodge the important parts.

Even though Nie Fei had dodged with all his might, the venom still splashed onto his arm. The clothes outside his body were as if they were nothing, they were corroded in the blink of an eye, and the venom continued to spread towards Nie Fei.

Suddenly, a puff of black smoke rose from Nie Fei's arm. Fortunately, Nie Fei's eyes were quick, and he shaved off all the venom-contaminated areas with one palm.

"Huh" Nie Fei couldn't help but inhale the cold air, and the intense pain came from his arm, and one or two pieces of meat were cut down by Nie Fei himself.

The flesh and blood still corroded at a terrifying speed when it fell to the ground, and Nie Fei watched as his flesh and blood disappeared little by little, and finally turned into a puddle of black water.

"It's horrible venom. Unconsciously, Nie Fei's forehead was already covered with cold sweat.

"Fortunately, I am decisive, otherwise I am afraid that my own will turn into a puddle of black water like the piece of flesh and blood just now. Nie Fei secretly rejoiced.

With his strong recovery power, the injury on Nie Fei's arm quickly recovered as before. In just a few breaths, the bloody wound began to shrink at a visible rate, and the blood began to stop flowing. It then turns into a red thread until the original fair skin is restored.

It seems that this blood centipede is not an easy character to deal with, Nie Fei overturned his previous thoughts.

Nie Fei carefully put away the two blood centipedes, fortunately, the request of the Brave Association was only a blood centipede and did not require it to be captured alive, otherwise Nie Fei would really have to spend a lot of effort.

Nie Fei, who had harvested two blood centipedes, turned around and left into the distance, but he didn't notice that the bull's body was still shaking slightly after he left.

The thunder in the sky still flickered from time to time, illuminating this Chifeng Island, which had not seen the light of day.

......

It had been three days since Nie Fei came to Chifeng Island, and in these three days, he had only harvested three blood centipedes, counting the previous two.

Such a slow speed made Nie Fei complain, how could there only be so many blood centipedes on the huge island? Even when he was looking for scorching sun mushrooms at the bottom of the sea, he was faster than he was now!

Nie Fei carelessly brushed aside the branches around him, and he had already searched everywhere he could. Sand, woods, but I can't find a single blood centipede.

Speaking of which, Nie Fei caught these three can only be said to be lucky, every time he catches a blood centipede, it happens to be when they are hunting. Other than that, Nie Fei found nothing.

"Hurry up, it's over here. The sudden sound suddenly made Nie Fei vigilant, it was easy to encounter demon beasts in this place where birds don't, but it was difficult to meet living people.

Aside from the mission of the Brave Association, Nie Fei really couldn't think of anything attractive about this place.

"How far is it?" asked a rugged male voice.

"It's not far, it's nearby. The conversation between the two was accompanied by a burst of whimpering. But the whimpering sound familiar.

"Who could it be?" Nie Fei couldn't help but ask. As the footsteps got closer and closer, Nie Fei hurriedly threw his body into a dense forest around him. Hold your breath so as not to be discovered by the other party.

You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people. Although Nie Fei didn't plan to do anything to cut off the road, it was better to be careful.

With a "snap", a caterpillar landed on Nie Fei's back. However, Nie Fei didn't pay attention to it, so as not to be discovered by someone who came. Just let this innocuous little bug survive a little longer.

Through dense woods. Nie Fei could already see the speaker's face. There were eight full-grown men, two of whom carried large sacks. The whimper came from the sack.

The brown sack changed shape from time to time, and it was clear that the people in it were struggling, but they could not get out of the sack.

Nie Fei looked at them suspiciously, not knowing what their purpose was here. The tiny caterpillar kept climbing on Nie Fei's back, and a tickling sensation kept coming out.

Nie Fei decided that after those people left, he must use the fastest speed to clean up the caterpillars on his back.

"Found it, the barren mountain in front of me. Suddenly, one of them suddenly spoke.

"Barren Mountain?" Nie Fei couldn't help but furrow, "There shouldn't be anything there." Nie Fei said secretly, because he had just come from that barren mountain.

Immediately, the group of people hurried towards the barren mountain, looking at their cautious appearance. If he hadn't known about the situation in the barren mountain, Nie Fei would definitely think that they had gone to dig for treasure.

Nie Fei's strength shook slightly, shaking the caterpillar on his back down. The whole person was like a ghost, silently following him, he wanted to see what was inside the barren mountain.

Then, Nie Fei was surprised to find that the eight people had stopped in the barren valley where he had stayed before. Eight people were gathered in a circle, and the sack that had been carried on their backs was placed among them.

Everything around was silent, not the slightest movement, except for the constant whimpering of the sack.

It wasn't until now that Nie Fei, who came here for the second time, felt that something was wrong with the barren valley. It stands to reason that even the most barren mountains should have insects and beasts. But you can't hear any insects or birds chirping here.

If it weren't for the caterpillar just now that really impressed Nie Fei, then Nie Fei really wouldn't have been able to find the difference in this barren valley.

Surrounded by eight people, two huge sacks were slowly untied.

"How could it be them? Didn't you just send them back not long ago?" Nie Fei almost cried out. It was none other than the two sisters and brothers of the Luo family, Luo Wen and Luo Jun who were wrapped in the sack.

At this moment, both of them had a thick ball of linen stuffed in their mouths, and they couldn't speak at all. The constant whimpering along the way is understandable.

Luo Wen and Luo Jun, who had just come out of the sack, both of them tried to gasp for breath, and the taste of being held in the sack was not pleasant. Small spaces, dull air, and bumps along the way. The two of them were already half-dead.

Luo Jun, who had been able to breathe a little, stared at one of the eight people angrily. He was fiddling with the fabric tied to his palm, and there was a visible scar in the corner of his eye, but it didn't look like it was long.

Normally, it would be impossible for a scar like this to leave a scar on a cultivator's body. The scar can be easily removed after the wound has healed. However, some people do not choose to erase their scars after an injury.

Instead, he chose to stay as a medal for his battle, and at the same time, this scar can always alert him.

"Yo, the little guy is quite energetic! I'm so scared to see it, but you won't have the strength to look at me like this for a while. The man felt Luo Jun's resentful gaze and said with a smile.

"Hahahaha. The people around him laughed too.

If vision can kill, then the strong man who spoke doesn't know how many times he has been executed by Ling Chi. It's a pity that Luo Jun's gaze doesn't have that kind of power, so the strong man is still laughing unscrupulously.

"Alright. Stop laughing, it's time to get down to business. After laughing, a leading man said. Even when he was laughing just now, he was still vigilant, always carefully observing the wind and grass around him. This has nothing to do with his rugged appearance.

"Yes, big brother. The people around him stopped smiling, their expressions were serious, and no one had the slightest slackness. These are people who have been walking between life and death all year round, and they know when to relax and when to be serious.

Once they slack off when they are serious, it is often their lives that are paid.
