Chapter 617: Shocked!
"Enemy attack!"
didn't have time to dodge, and didn't have time to think about it, even if Zuo Yangdang made a move [Flower Flying Butterfly Dance (No Defect)] to parry, a layer of pink energy suddenly poured out to protect his whole body.
The defensive effect of the martial arts of qi is often better than that of the external martial arts, because such a martial arts relies on qi and can protect the whole body 360 degrees without dead ends, while the external martial arts can only parry the front, in fact, the [ten thousand poisonous gangqi] in the [Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands] is also such a move.
However, relatively speaking, the external martial arts also have their own advantages, most of the external martial arts can counterattack the enemy after the parry is successful, or directly cause damage to the enemy, while most of the qi martial arts can only leave a negative effect on the opponent.
In short, the use of racks is also based on the situation, and choosing different types of moves in different situations can also have a great impact on the outcome of a battle.
And at the moment, this kind of sneak attack from behind is naturally more useful for the air trick type of fight.
The next moment.
"Boom! Boom! ”
After two crisp sounds, Zuo Yang was not hurt, but he had already used his strength to perform light skills and jumped forward, jumping out of a distance of more than a zhang, and at the same time quickly turned around.
His attackers were two men dressed in a wide black cloak with a hood that almost completely enveloped their bodies, looking like the mysterious and evil cultists of some Western movie.
The weapons in their hands were different, one holding a pair of strangely shaped hooks, the other carrying a half-human-high scythe, and in addition to that, they each wore a ghost-like bronze mask on their faces, which was also somewhat different in shape.
Anyway, their shape should be very conspicuous on this very empty white snow field, and Zuo Yang is also very sure that he is very careful along the way, after all, whether it is the player called Huatian who made a mistake before, or Huo Tiandu, the head of the Tianshan faction, has told him that there are many monsters here, so Zuo Yang can also be sure that he really didn't see anything just now, not even the slightest clue, otherwise how could he be sneak attacked?
The most important thing is that the skill realm of these two guys is actually not high, they are just the same "divine skills" as Zuo Yang, and they are just ordinary monsters, and the "spirit vultures" they encountered before are basically two levels of level...... In fact, when Zuo Yang brushed his cultivation value a long time ago, he was already practicing with monsters of this level, not to mention just two of them, even if there were more than ten or twenty at once, it was just a walking cultivation value for him.
"Who the hell are you?"
Seeing the situation of these two sneak attackers clearly, Zuo Yang really didn't feel the pressure from them at all, so he relaxed and planned to find out their identities first.
He has reason to suspect that these two guys are the characteristic monsters that Hua Tian made mistakes and Huo Tiandu mentioned in his mouth and are good at "stealth", and he doesn't know if it's luck or something else, anyway, since he entered the Tianshan Earth Realm, except for killing a vulture, he hasn't always encountered this kind of magical monster.
"Those who trespass on the Ethereal Peak, die!"
Under the bronze masks, the two of them shouted at the same time, and as they spoke, they jumped to Zuoyang and killed him.
"I didn't come to Ethereal Peak with malicious intent, if you don't allow me to enter, you should always give an explanation, right?"
Zuo Yang used his light skills to retreat more than a foot away, avoiding the attack of the two, and continued to ask.
"Those who trespass on the Ethereal Peak, die!"
The two of them are still replying very mechanically, and they are still chasing Zuo Yang in a very patterned manner.
"Uh...... It seems that it's just the most ordinary monster for the player to brush for cultivation.,It's basically impossible to ask anything from them.,Only kill them and see if you can find some useful clues from them.。 ”
Two questions, Zuo Yang had a rough judgment on the situation of the two guys in front of him who seemed to be very popular, and naturally he would not talk nonsense to them anymore......
……
Vulnerable.
The two monsters fell to the ground and turned into corpses almost instantly.
Zuo Yang stepped forward and turned over the two corpses that had fallen to the ground and examined them carefully.
Except for a small number of copper coins that were exploded at the time of death, the two bodies were almost completely devoid, and no props were found to prove their identity, and the bronze masks on their faces seemed to be cast on them, and they could not be removed at all...... This is not surprising to Zuo Yang, ordinary monsters cannot be tossed around by players after death, and everything in the situation of these two guys is no different from ordinary monsters.
In addition, the battle records do not directly show their names like the previous "vultures", and only use the two words "thief" with a wide range of aspects.
"There is no obvious difference in experience and cultivation compared to ordinary monsters...... It seems that the system is deliberately hiding their identities, and this ethereal peak may really hide some plots and adventures that are different from other places, right? ”
Zuo Yang thought so in his heart, so he also let go of the two corpses, and took a step into the Ethereal Peak with such a guess.
- [Please note that you have entered the breakthrough scene "Ethereal Peak" on the first layer of [Shura Yin Sha Gong], and staying in "Ethereal Peak" for a sufficient time will increase the comprehension value required by [Shura Yin Sha Gong] accordingly, and complete the breakthrough after the comprehension value reaches the full value!] 】
- [Current comprehension value 0/100 (1 comprehension point can be obtained for every 1 hour online)]
"It turns out that [Shura Yin Sha Gong] is such a breakthrough mechanism?"
Seeing this sudden system prompt, Zuo Yang instantly understood the task of his trip.
To put it bluntly, he only needs to stay in the Ethereal Peak for 100 hours to complete the breakthrough of the first layer, and 100 hours is more than 4 days, but for casual players like Zuo Yang who will never be online 24 hours a day, the time it actually takes to consume is about doubled, that is, about 8 days.
This time is not long, but it is not short.
But fortunately, there are no players in the Ethereal Peak, and there are a lot of monsters, so he can just use this time to brush up on the cultivation value for a while, and improve the exercises that he has left in his hands but have not had time to cultivate, and it can be regarded as calming down to consolidate his strength by the way.
Anyway, in the recent period, he has not been very good at returning to the Flower Palace, and here he can break through the [Shura Yin Sha Gong], and he can brush the cultivation value to improve other exercises, which can be regarded as a matter of killing two birds with one stone, and it is not a loss.
Meantime.
Now that there are many doubts on the "Ethereal Peak", he can also calm down and investigate this place, maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
And now, the first thing that should be done is to find the secret ice cave that Qiao Beiming told him as soon as possible, and see what the situation of that [Seven-Colored Snow Lotus] is...... Even now, he didn't know what exactly this thing was doing.
Just when Zuo Yang was thinking about this.
"Ding!"
Another system prompt sounds.
——[Please note that Xi Chi, the palace master of the Shifting Flower Palace, has finally been released, and your position as the "Acting Palace Master of the Shifting Flower Palace" has been stripped of you, and you will no longer be in charge of the relevant matters in the Shifting Flower Palace. 】
“!”
The first boot finally landed, Zuo Yang's heart couldn't help but lift, and he immediately found that the "Shifting Flower Palace Management Interface" that could be viewed at any time before had disappeared, and he was now completely unofficial and light.
Then the next thing is to wait for the second boot.
So what is the second boot?
Or, Zuo Yang will be directly deprived of the identity of a flawless son, and may even be directly kicked out of the Shifting Flower Palace;
Or, it was the second palace master who persuaded him on the side, so that the palace master Xi Chi could temporarily suppress the anger, and he was also able to get along with each other for the time being, waiting for the palace master Xi Chi's fire to be extinguished a little before returning to the Shifting Flower Palace to ask for guilt.
In the first case, the system message will come soon.
In the second case, this matter will be silent for the time being, and he can play in the Ethereal Peak with peace of mind.
In fact, Zuo Yang felt that the second possibility was much greater, because after getting along for so long, he knew that the palace master Xichi was actually the kind of personality with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, if it didn't really violate her bottom line, she would still be relatively much more tolerant, not to mention that there was also the second palace master Su Su, his "own person", who was persuaded on the side.
Really.
I waited for almost 5 minutes with a heart in this way, and no new system prompts appeared......
"Hoo ——!"
Zuo Yang finally breathed a long sigh of relief, it seems that this matter has stabilized for the time being, he is still a flawless son, and the Xichi Palace Master is really still reluctant to me, this is good, this can be assured.
Next, after successfully breaking through the first layer of the [Shura Yin Sha Gong], return to the Shifting Flower Palace to find the second palace master to probe the wind...... However, a beating by the palace master of Xichi must be unavoidable, this is not difficult for Zuo Yang to accept, as long as the palace master is still willing to beat him, it means that she has not given up on him, and he can still be saved.
"But when I think about this, my heart is itching, and I still have a little expectation? What's wrong with me now? ”
Zuo Yang couldn't help but scratch his head and neck, why did his body start to itch a little?
Damn it......
……
After these two episodes, Zuo Yang officially began his journey of exploring the Ethereal Peak.
There is no road on this steep snow, and most of the mountain is covered with snow, and in some places it is directly impassable faults, which can only be climbed with light effort.
This is difficult for Zuo Yang, his light skills do not consume internal strength, at most he can only be regarded as a normal mountain.
However, as the altitude continued to increase, the monsters he encountered gradually increased, and the skill realm of these monsters also increased slightly, and it was not even halfway up the mountain that it had been improved from "miraculous skills" to the next level of "supernatural transformation...... Even though they are ordinary monsters, these guys still can't cause too much trouble to Zuo Yang.
In the battle with these monsters, Zuo Yang's understanding of them gradually deepened.
First of all, it can be seen that although these monsters wear similar clothes and have similar costumes, the weapons they use and the exercises they perform are very different, and they rarely even encounter the same.
That is to say, although they may come from the same organization, they may not come from the same sect, after all, a person's energy is limited, and so is a sect, and it is already quite difficult for any sect to be able to study a weapon or a type of exercise to the extent that it is enough to establish a sect.
However, the types of exercises used and performed by these monsters that Zuo Yang has encountered so far have reached more than dozens of types, and such a huge inclusiveness has completely surpassed Zuo Yang's cognition...... You must know that even those ten major sects and major rivers and lakes that have been famous for a long time are not good at more than three weapons, and the exercises taught in the door are also in the service of these weapons;
Secondly, the "stealth" ability of these monsters does have a lot of flaws in the snow, as long as they move, they will leave a series of relatively clear footprints on the ground, Zuo Yang has found their traces in advance through this flaw several times, and killed them out of the "stealth" state first.
And not only that, Zuo Yang also found that whether they killed them themselves, or they took the initiative to come out of the "stealth" state to launch a sneak attack on him, in short, as long as they got out of the "stealth" state, they could no longer be "invisible", because no monster had ever tried to escape in this way.
However, Rao is like this, Zuo Yang still has to admit that the "stealth" level of these monsters is much higher than his "Shadow Escape Technique", because their "stealth" is not as high as the requirements of the "Shadow Escape Technique", they don't need to rely on any environmental factors, if they are in the snow that will not leave footprints, and do not take the initiative to attack, at least with Zuo Yang's current strength, it is impossible to find their traces, even if they use [Crystal Mirror]!
Therefore, although Zuo Yang has killed a lot of such monsters and killed them very easily, he has always had such a trace of worry in his heart
I don't know what realm the leader of this monster is, if their leader can also be "invisible", and the skill realm is very high, or even an NPC, this level of sneak attack, will he have time to react, will he be killed directly......
With such worries, while Zuo Yang brushed the monster, he didn't dare to be too careless.
Fortunately, along the way, except for the occasional harassment of a "vulture" that is more difficult to deal with than these thieves, he has not encountered a stronger opponent.
After about 3 hours, Zuo Yang successfully climbed to the top of the Ethereal Peak.
The top of the ethereal peak is surrounded by thick clouds and mist, so although the mountains are small at a glance, the line of sight is not very good, and even the "Tianshan faction" not far from here can only vaguely see a prototype, and there is a feeling of seeing flowers in the fog.
There is nothing on it, and although it is sealed in ice and snow all year round, the terrain is very flat, but the area is not large, at most the size of a football field.
On the side of Zuo Yang, the slope of the mountain is more soothing, about 30-40 degrees, although it is difficult to climb up, but after all, it is barely able to stand people, and on the other side, the inclination of the mountain is very terrible, although it is not as vertical as 90 degrees, but many places are at least 70 degrees, and all are covered by smooth ice and snow, unless someone can use the method of light relay to rush up from below in one breath, otherwise as long as it stays slightly, I am afraid it will slide down.
However, Zuo Yang is the "unless", although he did not use this method to go up the mountain.
And the location of the hidden ice cave provided by Qiao Beiming for Zuo Yang was in the middle of this steep mountain.
"It's going down."
Zuo Yang took a closer look at the top of the Ethereal Peak, but couldn't find any useful information, so he finally didn't waste time on it, but jumped off it, sliding down the extremely terrifying inclination.
The road is not smooth, and there are always some protruding ice and sharp rocks on the mountainside, but this danger is not much compared to the bottomless pit in the secret passage of Laoshan Mountain.
Zuo Yang constantly uses the [Non-Attack] of the "Flying Claw" form to slow down his downward trajectory, and changes the direction of his glide at the right time, avoiding danger one at a time.
A moment later.
"Huh!"
Zuo Yang was extremely skillful at avoiding a protruding boulder, and finally found an ice cave with a diameter of less than 2 meters underneath the boulder.
Although this ice cave is so large and square, because of its location and the direction of the opening, it is almost impossible to notice its existence from the top of the mountain or from the bottom of the mountain.
And if Zuo Yang hadn't gotten the specific coordinates in advance, and Qiao Beiming had deliberately explained the situation of the ice cave in detail, even if he slid past it, he might not be able to discover the existence of the ice cave.
"That's it!"
Zuo Yang perked up, and hurriedly threw out the "flying claws" again, hitting the ice at the entrance of the ice cave with great precision.
"Boom la la ......"
The chain attached to the tail of the "flying claw" quickly contracted, pulling Zuo Yang's body and flying towards the ice cave.
However, just as he was about to enter the ice cave, a half-human body and a panicked face suddenly popped out of the ice cave.
This face looks very immature, but this immaturity can't hide the delicate facial features, and with the pair of double ponytails on the head that can be used as a "steering wheel", and the red head rope used to tie the double ponytails, it looks like a very beautiful little girl, a proper beauty embryo.
"I'll it! Shocked, how can there be people in such a place? And it's a little girl!? ”
