"Roar!"

The pained lion ape threw its head back and let out a roar of toldness, and a long, hideous wound was cut on its back by the undead slash, but there was no blood flowing from the wound.

Ignoring the huge wound in the back, the lion ape rolled in the waterhole with strange movements.

While dodging Lu Xiao's second round of attacks, the lion ape regained its footing, and in a rage, raised its arms and slammed downward.

"Boom!"

Lu Xiao, who dodged backwards, dodged the lion ape's fists, but its hands that smashed into the waterhole also brought a wave of water curtain with a strong impact, and it was about to hit Lu Xiao.

'Cloak of Devil's Float. ’

The white cloak draped behind Lu Xiao suddenly flashed a faint light, and he dragged Lu Xiao back a few steps out of thin air, narrowly avoiding the indirect attack of the lion ape.

In the first round of confrontation, Lu Xiao took advantage of some advantages, but for the lion ape, the insect appendage, this injury was nothing, and it would heal quickly.

Lu Xiao put on a defensive posture and held a knife to face the lion ape with anger in his eyes, and the other party also roared and beat his chest hard, the second round of battle was about to begin.

"Roar!"

The lion ape, which had an amazing jumping power, kicked the ground hard with both legs, jumped more than 5 meters high, and smashed his arms towards Lu Xiao with the kinetic impact of the fall.

No matter how reckless a person is, he will not be stupid to hard-connect the huge lion ape frontal attack, Lu Xiao moved back with both feet, dodging the direct attack of the lion ape's fists.

The water curtain that followed it burst forward in reverse before it could take shape, and with a heavy humming sound, the water curtain was split open, and the second slash slashed at the lion ape's head as it was caught off guard.

At the last moment, the lion ape raised his arms to block Lu Xiao's blade.

The left arm that was blocking the front was directly cut off by the sharp immortal slash and fell into the pool, and the right arm narrowly blocked the undead slash with weakened impact.

"Whew!"

The pain of the broken arm made the lion ape more and more furious, and while Lu Xiao's strength was old, it simply threw its huge body forward, trying to squash Lu Xiao with its body mass.

Lu Xiao's eyes flashed, and he temporarily gave up the immortal slash that cut into the lion ape's right arm, and jumped out to the side with the help of the reaction force that pushed the handle of the knife, just avoiding the lion ape's pounce.

Before he could gain a firm foothold in the pool, the Boots of Hermes suddenly activated for a short time, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Xiao was sent to the shoulder of the lion ape who was half-lying on the ground.

Holding the handle of the heavily rusted Datai knife on the neck of the lion ape with both hands, using the principle of leverage, using his body as a bargaining chip for the lever, the big knife that penetrated the neck of the lion ape cut off the neck and flew out.

Half of the neck of the lion ape could not control its head, and its huge head slammed into the waterhole.

Lu Xiao ignored the big knife that could barely be used anymore, and quickly changed direction and pulled out the immortal slash stuck in the muscle of the lion ape's right arm.

Temporarily retracting the immortal slash from the scabbard in a posture of juhe, Lu Xiao bowed forward slightly, combining the reed celebrity cross slash with the power attached to the immortal slash itself.

"Secret Legend: Immortal Slash!"

The two undead slashes that slashed through the air hit the target one after another, the first slashing the lion ape's head completely, and the second slashing into the lion ape's broken neck.

"Squeak!"

The immortal slash that was cut into the body was directly hit, and the giant insect attached to the lion ape's body let out a desperate scream before dying.

"Die!"

The lion ape, whose body was cut open, completely exposed the undead insect in its body, and Lu Xiao exerted his strength again after a short period of breathing, and finally split the giant insect with an oversized body into two pieces from the middle.

"Whew~"

The whole battle seemed simple, but the physical strength and energy required to fight this huge creature far exceeded the consumption of the previous battle with the Juggernaut Monkey.

The strength of the lion ape is huge, and its agility is not weak, unlike those giant beasts with unilateral attributes, it is really not easy to deal with.

Fortunately, Lu Xiao knew the weakness of the lion ape in advance, and guided it in a targeted manner during the battle, and finally let the lion ape expose its neck, which successfully killed the insects in its body and ended the never-ending life of the lion ape.

After a short rest, Lu Xiao came to the vicinity of the position where the lion ape was squatting before.

There is a small cave at the end of the waterhole, and the quiet aroma is faintly coming from the cave.

Walking through the cave and entering the interior, what caught Lu Xiao's eyes was a blue-white lotus flower that emitted a faint light, which was one of the raw materials for refining the fragrance of the source - the fragrant water lotus.

Carefully removed the water lotus by the roots, and Lu Xiao temporarily tied it to the scabbard of the immortal slash.

"Once you have a piece of material, let's go back to Reeda Castle and give it to Kurou."

……

"Oh oh~ Is this the fragrant water lotus that blooms in the deepest part of the Valley of Falling?"

Jiulang's smart eyes seemed to be about to shine, and he looked curiously and excitedly at the lotus flower that had just been brought back by Lu Xiao.

Behind Jiu Lang stood an indifferent man less than one meter six, who was the wolf that Lu Xiao had seen at the Buddhist carver orangutan before.

The wolf's eyes were not on the fragrant water lotus, but stared at Lu Xiao vigilantly, and the left hand of the mechanism that had just been installed had already pressed on the hilt of the knife, and he could attack at any time.

'Is the owner's loyal dog......

Lu Xiao didn't care about the hostility of the wolf, exclusive ninjas were like this, as long as someone might threaten their master, these domestic fierce dogs would show their fangs to the enemy.

"It just so happens that the wolf has some impressions of the cherry blossom aftertaste mixed with the fragrance of the source, and I plan to ask him to investigate the whereabouts of the cherry blossom tree."

"Your Excellency Lu Xiao, if you can, I hope you can help continue to search for the Stone of Settlement."

Jiulang patted the large stack of books beside him, and said with a smug expression of begging for praise, "During the time of your actions, I was not idle. ”

"I looked through a lot of documents left by Zhangheba, and got some clues about the stone of the knot, this kind of stone seems to only exist in a hidden village at the bottom of the reed, but unfortunately I don't know where the bottom of the reed name is."

"The Bottom ...... of the Reed Name"

With a thoughtful expression on the wolf's face, Jiulang turned around and asked with some surprise, "Wolf, do you know?" ”

"Well, when I was investigating your whereabouts before, I heard a mysterious old woman in the depths of the dungeon mention it."

"If you want to reach the bottom of Ashina, you have to jump into the deepest pit of the Ashina dungeon, and I was in a hurry to find Miko's whereabouts, so I didn't continue to explore further."

"Dungeon?" Lu Xiao groaned and asked, "So, where is Wei Ming's dungeon?" ”

"Don't rush to go."

Jiu Lang patted Lu Xiao's arm and said, "Your Excellency Lu Xiao has just returned from a trek, and he should have accumulated a lot of fatigue, I will let the wolf go to the dungeon to investigate first, and you should have a good rest during this time." ”

Lu Xiao looked up at Yongzhen, who had just come to the door of the castle tower, thought about it for a while, and finally nodded and accepted Jiulang's kindness.

"It's good that I still have a promise to fulfill."

"That's right."

The taciturn and indifferent wolf suddenly provided Lu Xiao with a piece of information: "The prince of Xianfeng Temple asked me to convey a message to you, she has something to discuss with you." ”

Lu Xiao looked at the wolf whose expression did not change a little speechlessly, "How many places have you run in one night......
