Chapter 101: Blue Devil
In the blink of an eye, the ground was full of broken branches and stumps, and the dense forest that had once covered the sky and the sun had become a patio, and the moonlight shone in like day.
Flames burned and crackled in the treetops, and the smell of burnt sulfur began to fill the air.
The trio continued to fly forward, narrowly missing the fireball several times.
Xu Ning gritted his teeth: "This won't work, we dragged her alone and blindly escaped, which greatly affected the speed and became a live target for the person behind." ”
When the girl heard this, she cried and scolded Xu Ning: "You villain will not save you when you see death, if you leave me alone, I will definitely be burned to death by that fireball." ”
Chen Jin was still hesitating, Xu Ning had already turned around and rushed back towards the flickering firelight.
"I see." Chen Jin admired, "My junior brother didn't want to leave you alone, but he kept carrying you like this, not only did it not help, but sooner or later he lost the ability to fight back because of the consumption of his body." ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and even though her face turned red, she lowered her head and was speechless.
The strange fireball was no longer sent, it turned out that Xu Ning had forced out the enemy in the dark, and the fireball flying out of the dense forest was sent out by him with a chain before it could fly out, and exploded in the distance.
Xu Ning held the Eighteen Demon Slaying Chain and intercepted the huge black shadow, the chain flew out, and a giant tree fell with a bang.
"What a powerful weapon!" In the darkness, a young girl said softly.
Chen Jin hid her and turned back: "Come out for me." ”
"Looks like there's only one person." Xu Ning said, although his face under the moonlight was covered with dirt, it was extremely quiet.
There was calm in the woods again, except for the crackling of burning branches overhead, but the flames were gradually extinguished.
A black figure floated out from behind the tree like a ghost, and like the men in black in front, its entire head was tightly wrapped in strips of black cloth, and unlike the men in black, its body was very large, so it looked a little thin. And a pair of eyes peeked out of the black cloth, and the blue pupils were as cold as ice.
It was a lifeless dead man, as neither of them felt any signs of life in the body of the cicada chrysalis wrapped in black cloth.
But it's a dead man who makes a sound!
"Assert ......"
This low, strange sound kept coming out of the head wrapped in black cloth, and I don't know what it meant.
"Who the hell are you?" Xu Ning shouted. The chains in his hands also rattled, obviously filled with gangqi, black mist swirled, and flames flickered.
The huge black shadow of the body didn't answer, but kept making weird noises, and the blue light in the pupils was even stronger, which was weird in the cold moonlight.
It held its two palms, which were also wrapped in black cloth, on its chest, and there was no decent weapon in its hand, just the green mist in its palm was constantly steaming.
Just confronted each other, and no one moved first.
Xu Ning found that the target of the man in black was not the two of them, and from the way he looked around from time to time, it could be inferred that he must be looking for the girl in the beast robe. I couldn't help but look behind me, but I saw that there was still the figure of the woman in the shadow of the moon in the dense forest.
He was also secretly curious in his heart, and glanced at Chen Jin with his spare eyes, not knowing where he hid the girl.
Chen Jin didn't speak, and protected his chest with a long sword. Both of them were quite jealous of the mysterious black-clad man's methods, and in an instant the woods had been blown up by this strange flame, and a strong pungent smell of sulfur filled the air.
The beast-clothed girl was originally hiding in the long grass not far away, and the lush grass blocked her from the wind, and at first she was trembling and listening to the sounds around her, and she couldn't stay for a long time, so she simply raised her head and saw that the two of them were motionless under the moonlight, and she couldn't help but be very curious.
After waiting for a while, it was so boring that he simply stood up and walked towards the two of them.
"Assert ......"
The strange sound in the throat of the man in black suddenly became rapid, and the green smoke in his palm suddenly rose, and a strong pungent smell rushed towards the two of them.
Xu Ning was taken aback, because he couldn't see what kind of trick the enemy was doing, so he had to shoot backwards with Chen Jin.
But seeing the tall body of the man in black sweeping against the tree, his body was incomparably light, and the flames in his hand came out after falling on the treetops, throwing a fireball at the girl who ran over.
Both of them were shocked, their shapes were changing rapidly, and it was too late to save each other at this time.
The beast-clothed girl was running towards the two of them with a smile to herself, and suddenly saw the two of them jumping backwards at the same time, and she already knew what was happening, and suddenly saw a black shadow rise above the treetops.
Almost as soon as she exclaimed, a fireball flashed in her eyes. The girl was a strange elf, but her reaction was as agile as a cunning rabbit, and her petite body swooped forward, landing on the ground with one hand and rolling on the ground again, and she rolled on the grass several times with such speed and urgency.
Just barely stabilized his body, flames erupted behind him, and a strong fire light erupted, and the air around him became scorching.
Before the girl could fully stand up, the black-clothed man in the tree had already flashed fire in his hand.
"Looks like he's always been targeting this girl." Xu Ning said.
Chen Jin nodded, and was about to do his best to stop the man in black from throwing a fireball at the girl, but he was still a step too late, but when he saw a dazzling fire in front of him, the man in black had already attacked again.
Chen Jin was taken aback, and at the last moment, a cyan figure flew over like a spirit snake out of a hole, and the Demon Slayer Lock shot out of Xu Ning's hand, intercepting the fireball in mid-air.
"Boom ......"
This time, the fireball was not sent flying, but exploded directly above Xu Ning's head, splitting into countless sparks and splashing in all directions.
The firelight illuminated the silver-colored face, and the murderous intent on the face that had already been covered with dirt and dust suddenly appeared.
"Senior Brother Xu, be careful!" Chen Jin exhaled, and this time the fireball exploded above his head a few steps away, and it was extremely dangerous.
Before Chen Jin finished speaking, the long sword in his hand emitted a white light and shot towards the man in black.
The man in black jumped and leaped over the tree like a night owl, turning into a black shadow, and all the sword qi emitted by Chen Jin was in vain.
The beast-clothed girl had already taken out her bow and arrows, opened the bow and pulled the string, and with a "whoosh" sound, it penetrated the black shadow shaking on the tree, and the arrow was inserted into the tree and trembled.
After the black shadow was shot through, the huge body fell to the ground like a weightless piece of paper, silently.
The beast-clothed girl was shot with an arrow, and hurriedly ran towards Xu Ning, helping him up with Chen Jin, and her expression of concern and worry was beyond words.
"You, you...... Are you okay? The girl's eyes widened and she asked. And help him shoot the sparks off his clothes.
"You let this fireball blow up and see if it's okay." Xu Ning muttered viciously.
Chen Jin was relieved to see his calm expression, and also asked, "Are you really okay?" ”
Xu Ning wiped the black stains on his face and laughed loudly: "Senior Brother Chen, don't worry, I have a body protection technique, and it is generally extremely difficult to suffer any major damage, but this smelly and dirty feeling is really uncomfortable." ”
Chen Jin said to the girl again, with a solemn face: "I said you girl, I let you stay in the grass well, what did you run out to do recklessly, if it wasn't for my junior brother who rescued him regardless of his own safety just now, you would have been roasted." ”
The girl no longer used her sharp teeth to defend this time, and when she saw Xu Ning being blown up and her clothes were shattered, her face was like the bottom of a pot, and she faintly regretted it in her heart, hearing Chen Jin say this, the water vapor in her clear eyes was steaming, and she was about to shed tears when her mouth was pursed.
Xu Ning hadn't heard her defend herself for a long time when she was wondering, when she suddenly saw the black-clothed man who fell to the ground moving again, and quickly stood up.
Chen Jin was also quite puzzled when he saw this scene, the arrow just now directly pierced it through the heart, this kind of injury is extremely fatal to anyone, it can be seen that the man in black is the same as the one in front, and the conventional injury has no effect on him.
The man in black really stood up again, and there was a blue light flowing in the hole pierced by the arrow, and the flesh and blood stains could not be seen, and the blue light in the two eye holes that had been dimmed slowly became as strong as before.
"Assert ......"
The sound also gradually became stronger.
Chen Jin flew up, and the long sword slashed out a moonlight Qinghui, and the man in black didn't react at all, and the sword qi cut off from one side of his body to the other.
But this time, the man in black stood straight in front of the three of them without moving, because the long sword had only cut off the strip of cloth, and the blue light flowed from the broken cloth, like a blue belt on it.
Chen Jin was shocked and said hurriedly: "This ...... What kind of monster is this, I've never seen anything like this in more than three years I've been here. ”
Xu Ning suddenly said, "Could it be the evil spirit we encountered in the Demon Suppression Mountain?" ”
Chen Jin shook his head: "I can't feel that it is an evil spirit, in the east of the wild land, the demon qi is insufficient, and the evil spirit cannot survive even if it is possessed by the demon beast, not to mention that this is the Gathering Spirit Peak, and the aura of heaven and earth is enough to kill them." ”
"It's the Blue Devil of the Underground Ancient City!" The beast-clothed girl whispered behind her.
After the two looked at each other, they asked in unison, "The Blue Devil of the Underground Ancient City?" What kind of monster is this? ”
The girl replied, "These blue demons are all driven by the lich masters of the underground ancient city, and it is difficult to kill them without the Purifying Spirit Talisman. ”
Purifying Talismans!
It turned out that the Pure Spirit Talisman could deal with this kind of monster, Xu Ning was overjoyed, but Chen Jin's face became gloomy.
He shook his head at Xu Ning and said, "I usually rarely refine this kind of soul talisman, because the materials for making zuò are extremely difficult to find. In the past, it was only for the purpose of going to the Demon Seal Mountain Range, as an item just in case, but the only two tickets from yesterday have been used. ”
Xu Ning had to give up and turned around and asked the girl: "Then is there any other way?" ”
The girl looked solemn, nodded and said, "Yes." It's about running. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she moved her body and ran towards the dense forest behind, and between the two of them, she had run without a trace.
Just stunned, the black shadow had already jumped over the heads of the two and pounced in the direction of the girl's escape.
Chen Jin didn't have time to exert his strength, and suddenly threw a long sword at the black-clothed blue devil, and the person also jumped up and struck a palm at it.
The black-clothed blue devil was stunned, allowing the long sword to penetrate his body, and turned around and shot at Chen Jin with a firelight, the firelight and the palm wind collided together, and after a loud bang, Chen Jin fell down.
With Chen Jin's current cultivation, it shouldn't be so bad, but after the afternoon medicinal bath, the body's energy has been exhausted. Although there was a short period of pranayama in the back, the Yuan Li Gang Qi that could be driven in front of a strong enemy was really insignificant, and it was inevitable that he would be powerless.
The black shadow let go of the two of them, and continued to pursue the beast-clothed girl.
But at this time, a black chain had wrapped one of his feet tightly, and the blue devil couldn't break free at once, and let out a roar in his throat, but a powerful gang qi smashed it from the air to the ground, and with a muffled sound, grass clippings and dirt flew everywhere, and a large hole had been smashed into the ground.
Just as the Blue Devil was about to break free, the chains twisted like a giant serpent and sent him into the air and slammed him to the ground again. Strips of black cloth are shattered.
Under the moonlight, Xu Ning clearly saw that a flaming flaming sword had quietly appeared in the hand of the black shadow.
