265 The core of the labyrinth
The footsteps behind him began to approach again, and there was no time to think about it, Zhang Qi could only speed up again and run forward.
Gradually, however, his wheezing became heavier and heavier, and his strength slowly began to be a little exhausted.
After all, he is a halfway monk, although his physique is affected by demon power, and he is getting stronger and stronger, but compared to those students who have been demons since birth, they are inevitably slightly inferior.
It may not be visible in a short time, but when Zhang Qi has no time to rest, the gap becomes obvious.
Not long after, Zhang Qi stopped at a fork in the road, which was only divided into two roads, one left and one right.
The path on the left is not only winding and narrow, some of it is gloomy, but also gives Zhang Qi an indescribable sense of repulsion, which is very weird.
The path on the right is straight and flat, giving Zhang Qi the feeling of being quaint.
Zhang Qi stood in front of the fork in the road, hesitated slightly, and subconsciously wanted to step on the road on the right, but just took a few steps, he stopped again.
When you encounter these two roads in front of you, almost all demons should choose the right one, right!?
Zhang Qi groaned, first looked at the road on the right, frowned at the path on the left, and pouted.
The path on the left made him subconsciously feel a sense of repulsion, as if he had the same feeling when he first approached the labyrinth, but it seemed to be a little stronger.
As soon as the two roads are compared, it is natural that you will subconsciously want to step on the right road.
In this case, the group of demons behind him must also think that he chose the right path, right?
In this case, if you choose the path on the left, can you take the opportunity to get rid of all the demons behind you?
Zhang Qi thought for a moment, immediately turned around and walked towards the path on the left.
Although the sense of repulsion in his heart became more and more clear as he stepped on the left path, in order to get rid of the pursuers behind him, Zhang Qi still forced himself to suppress the uneasiness in his heart and sprinted forward.
Zhang Qi's figure gradually disappeared behind the path on the left, restored the quiet fork in the road, and ushered in a group of demons, who saw two roads extending from the left and the right, and also stopped.
The group of demons observed the ground for a moment, and then invariably rushed into the path on the left, without any hesitation or argument, all the demons judged Zhang Qi's whereabouts in an instant.
Zhang Qi tried to enter the more difficult path to wonder about the intentions of the pursuers behind him, but he was directly crushed.
"You should be chasing you, right?" Shili, who was running at the front, couldn't help but ask.
"Maybe, after all, there have been a few times when I can feel Zhang Qi's breath." Lu Ping didn't stop at his feet, nodded and said.
"However, at first, I thought that Zhang Qi was trying to set a trap to mislead us," a demon next to him interjected. "I've heard that Zhang Qi seems to be quite smart before, but he really didn't find out."
"Hmm" Lu Ping nodded silently, looking down at the footprints on the sand spread on the ground, the corners of his mouth twitched. "I was surprised, too"
"We should also speed up a little bit too far away so that he can relax and maybe he will find out about this problem." The other demon said.
All the demons nodded in unison, and they sped up together, and for a while, the sand and dust on the ground continued to rise.
It didn't take long for them to hear a wheezing sound not far away.
As soon as they found this sound, their group of demons suddenly increased their speed again.
will appear in front of them, at this time, it is only possible Zhang Qi, although I didn't see his figure, I could hear his wheezing, it is conceivable that Zhang Qi's physical strength should have reached the limit.
During this time, they kept chasing and fleeing, although there were traces left on the ground, so their group of demons were not afraid of being thrown off by Zhang Qi, but every time they approached, they were immediately pulled away, and after going back and forth like this a few times, it made them a little anxious.
Seeing that they were close to catching up with Zhang Qi, Shiya, Luping and other demons all had their eyes lit up, and the fatigue on their bodies seemed to have dissipated.
All I have left in my mind is the bitterness of seeing Zhang Qi, who was cheered on by Tao Jing, Bai Yun, Jiu Rin and Huang Wenyao, when the physical examination began.
Success was in sight, and for a while, several demons even had sour eyes, and a few male tears silently crossed the corners of their eyes.
Unlike the happy mood of the pursuers behind him, Zhang Qi was anxious at this time.
The chaotic footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and the distance between him and the pursuers seemed to be no longer able to ensure his safety, and he wanted to distance himself, but his physical exhaustion could no longer allow it.
Zhang Qi gasped, still striding forward, but he couldn't pull away again.
And as he continued to go deeper into the path where he was now, the inexplicable sense of rejection in his heart became stronger and stronger, and even some inexplicable fear.
It seems that in the depths of this road, there is an aura of something that makes him extremely jealous.
However, although Zhang Qi was a little uneasy, the constantly approaching footsteps behind him gave him no extra time to think, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to go deeper.
The air around me was filled with clouds of mist.
Zhang Qi looked at the familiar mist, his heart was stunned, but his footsteps did not stop, he just bypassed the gap between the bursts of mist, he already knew that the mist was the medium of illusion, and he would naturally keep a good distance from the bursts of mist.
Fortunately, the mist was not big enough to cover the entire road, but it allowed Zhang Qi to find the gap in it and not be eroded by illusion.
Avoiding the mist along the way, Zhang Qi had some doubts in his heart, since the gust of wind just now, the mist that originally permeated the maze was blown away and dissipated into the air, why did it appear again at this time?
However, there was no time to think about it at this time, and the doubts in Zhang Qi's heart flashed, so he focused his attention on dodging the mist.
At this time, as Zhang Qi continued to go deeper, the bursts of mist became more and more dense, and he was no longer able to easily dodge the mist as he had just seen it, and he also needed to use wind spells to help him open his way from time to time.
Fortunately, the mist in front of him was not like the one before the wind blew across the entire road, but it could be affected by Zhang Qi's technique.
Suddenly, a corner appeared in front of Zhang Qi's eyes, and he didn't stop under his feet, and he was about to turn around directly, but he suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart, and subconsciously stopped.
I always feel that after the corner, there seems to be something bad
But when Zhang Qi hesitated, the footsteps behind him did not disappear, and they got closer and closer.
Zhang Qi turned his head and looked hatefully in the direction of the chasing soldiers behind him, where there seemed to be a faint figure, he gritted his teeth and bypassed the corner in front of him.
After turning the corner, what appeared in front of Zhang Qi was a square compartment, and on the other side of the compartment, there was a path, which seemed to be the direction of travel, but at this time, Zhang Qi did not notice the path at all.
His eyes were fixed on the center of the compartment, where there was a platform on which a small stone was placed.
The surface of the stone is exuding a strange luster. (To be continued.) )
