Chapter 067: Forward
The Lost Valley is densely forested, overgrown with shrubs, weeds, and wildflowers.
After coming out of the psychedelic road, Xiao Feng found a direction and went all the way forward, wanting to get out of the Ecstasy Valley. Along the way, a few beasts occasionally ran out, and these beasts did not even reach the rank, so they naturally became food for their stomachs.
All the way forward, about an hour or so.
Xiao Feng muttered to himself. It stands to reason that they wouldn't be too far from the edge of the valley, but they hadn't reached the edge of the valley after walking for so long, and they hadn't even seen the location of the previous fight with the mercenary group. He vaguely felt that he was going in the wrong direction.
"No, if you go in the wrong direction, you should encounter spirit beasts, how can they be some beasts that are not in the ranks?" Xiao Feng turned in his heart and said to Xiao Qi: "Everyone be careful, I always feel that something is wrong." ”
Not only did Xiao Feng find out that something was wrong, but Xiao Qi and the three of them also felt the same way. They glanced at each other and became vigilant.
After walking forward for another while, a cheetah in Xiao Feng's spiritual detection quickly ran towards them, and the speed of the cheetah was very fast, like a shadow quickly passing through a distance of tens of meters. Xiao Feng hurriedly shouted: "Ahead, be on guard!"
Everyone's spirits immediately tensed, and they all looked at the position that Xiao Feng had reminded.
"Roar!" a beastly roar sounded, and a cheetah sprang out from behind the bushes. The cheetah, which was as long as a few feet, jumped over the shrubs that were nearly one person high and landed in front of Xiao Feng and the others.
"Haha, it turned out to be a third-order low-level cheetah!" Xiao Jiu laughed, and with a flick of a single knife in his hand, a blue light flashed on the single knife, slashing at the cheetah fiercely.
The third-order low-level is only equivalent to the low-level spirit of the human race, and in the face of such a spirit beast, everyone feels that it is a false alarm.
The majestic cheetah had just jumped out, and before it could reach its power, it felt a deadly threat, and it turned around in a panic, and the turning posture that seemed to be rolling and crawling was very embarrassing, and when he turned around, its tail swept across the ground like a leather whip, and lifted a large amount of broken soil, dead branches and leaves.
Broken soil, dead branches and leaves, and even some small stones smashed overwhelmingly at Xiao Feng and the others.
Xiao Feng raised his left hand to protect his face, and the broken soil and other objects hit his arm, and a few broken leaves slid through his arm and stuck to his face, making him extremely embarrassed.
The same goes for Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba.
Xiao Jiu was even more embarrassed, a large amount of dirt splashed on his face, and he spat out the dirt in his mouth and scolded: "Damn beast, I will abolish you." ”
As he spoke, he was about to catch up.
At this moment, where Xiao Jiu was standing, only three or four feet above his head, the trunk of the tree suddenly moved, as if a lightning bolt was rushing towards Xiao Jiu.
"Be careful!" Xiao Feng let out a low sigh, and a cold light shot out of his hand.
Xiao Jiu's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly took a step back. It was at this step that he saw a giant python with a body of three feet long, with its tail wrapped around the trunk of a tree, and its body imitated that of a branch.
This python has a turquoise body and a very similar appearance to a normal tree trunk. When attacking, the mimicry on its body dissipated, revealing fine scales that glowed an eerie pink color. The bucket-thick body contained infinite toughness, and under this powerful tenacity, it opened its bloody mouth and bit towards Xiao Jiu's head.
Seeing that the giant python was about to bite Xiao Jiu's head, a flying knife pierced its scale armor and cut a crack in its body. The giant python was in pain, retracted its body, and gave up its attack on Xiao Jiu.
"It's the green scale python!" Xiao Ba exclaimed in surprise and drew his knife to face the green scale python.
The green scale python, a third-order high-level spirit animal, is comparable to a human high-level spirit warrior. At the same level, human monks are not opponents of spirit beasts at all, and the green scale python is known as a jungle killer because of its ability to mimic and conceal.
The blue-scaled python was hit by Xiao Feng's flying knife, and a hole was cracked on its body, and blood gushed out.
Stimulated by the severe pain, its ferocity was completely stimulated, and its retracted body slammed into it, spitting out a mouthful of venom towards Xiao Ba.
Seeing this, Xiao Ba withdrew his attack, dodged to the right, and dodged the venom's attack. The venom splattered on the ground, instantly corroding into a deep pit the size of a basin.
When Xiao Ba avoided the venom, Xiao Qi took the opportunity to rush forward. He, like Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu, was also a low-level spirit master, one order higher than the green scale python, but seeing that the single knife in his hand swung dozens of times in a row, the cold light flickered, and each knife fell on the green scale python like a bamboo.
The green scale python was in pain, and kept hissing, and its body fell from the trunk of the tree to the ground, rolling on the ground.
"Die!" Xiao Qi's whole body burst out with murderous aura, he let out a low shout, an attribute power flashed on the single knife, he slashed down from top to bottom, and slashed at the head of the green scale python with a single knife, directly cutting off its head.
The head of the green scale python rolled to the side, and the blood sprayed out like a fountain, and the strong and pungent smell of blood spread to all sides.
Xiao Jiu looked at the green scale python whose head was cut off, and his heart was in a cold sweat, if it weren't for Xiao Feng's reminder just now, Xiao Qi made a move, he might have fallen into the belly of the snake now. Immediately, he thanked Xiao Qi and Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng didn't say much, he just nodded. Then he urged the three of them: "Let's go!"
With that, he walked straight forward.
After this battle, Xiao Feng's heart had a little more indescribable something. After thinking about it for a while, he realized that his state of mind had changed. Originally, he just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, but now, he had the curiosity and idea to explore the valley.
This place is full of dangers, just like just now, before the green scale python attacked, his spiritual detection did not even find its existence. Fortunately, the appearance of that cheetah made him vigilant, so he was able to save Xiao Jiu under the sneak attack of the green scale python. But this crisis made Xiao Feng feel a sense of excitement, and it was precisely this stimulation that he thought of something that he had originally ignored.
The psychedelic road like 'ghosts hitting the wall' before seemed very simple to come out, but if he hadn't had the illusion breaking spell, they would probably have been trapped there all the time.
Desire stimulation, telepathic interference, psychedelic paths, all these things are related to the spirit, and it is clear that all of them are closely related to hallucination.
Hallucination, how does an ordinary geographical environment produce illusions?
This made Xiao Feng's heart itch.
was pondering these thoughts in his heart, and suddenly, he found that Xiao Qi and the others had not followed. He hurriedly turned his head and asked suspiciously, "Why don't you leave?"
Xiao Qidao: "Young master, this green-scaled python is full of treasures, the snake meat is delicious and contains rich spiritual power, snake blood, snake gall, snake tendons, and snake skin are all good things." It would be a shame to just leave. ”
Xiao Feng glanced at the dead green scale python, and he laughed: "I forgot about these, so what are you waiting for?
Xiao Qi smiled and said, "Old eight, old nine, what are you waiting for?"
The three of them immediately divided, they were quick with their hands and feet, and they worked together, and soon a green scale python several feet long was divided and disposed of by them.
After packing up together, the four of them carried the burden soaked in blood and continued to walk.
All the way forward, I walked for nearly half an hour.
The four of them came to a fork in the road, and on the left was a thorny place, and there was no way ahead. On the right, a hunting trail leads inside. Xiao Feng didn't hesitate at all, and walked directly towards the land of thorns with the three of them.
"Young Master Feng, why are we going this way?" Xiao Qi asked as he chopped through the thorns.
Xiao Feng smiled and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to get out in a short time, so we have to find a temporary shelter." There's a nice spot up here. ”
Xiao Qi nodded, stopped talking, and followed closely.
Xiao Feng's ability had already shocked Xiao Qi and the three of them, whether it was the plan when they broke through, or the various uncertain prophets who came to this valley, if it weren't for Xiao Feng, they would probably have died long ago, so they had a trace of respect for Xiao Feng from the bottom of their hearts.
Sure enough, after about one or two hundred meters along the thorny path, their front suddenly opened up. A clearing appears in a place surrounded by thorns, there is a secluded pool in the center of the clearing, the water of the pool is turquoise and clear, the surrounding plants are dense, flowers are in full bloom, bees and butterflies are in pairs, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.
The scenery is secondary, the key is that this open space is not invaded by fog, and you can see the blue sky and white clouds when you look up.
Such a beautiful scenery has a bit of a paradise feeling.
It's just that this beautiful scenery was ruined by the carcass of a spotted deer by the lake, and judging by the color of its blood, it was obvious that it had just been killed.
There were several mistakes in the spiritual detection in a row, which made Xiao Feng more careful, this beautiful place was surrounded by thorns, it should have been a quiet and peaceful place, but there was an extra corpse in such a place. Apparently it's not as calm as it seems.
His brows furrowed, and he said to Xiao Qisan, "Everyone be careful." ”
