Chapter 164: Clouded Leopard

I don't know if it's because of a mouthful of blood, Liu Li, who is returning under the reflection of the rising sun, only feels ...... Comfortable all over. Not only was the feeling of suffocation caused by the influence of the elemental essence swept away when he drew the white ancient runes before, but even his thinking was much clearer. Not to mention that he didn't look injured at all, he even felt that his current state was a little better than before he started trying to condense runes last night.

"There's nothing surprising about that. Hearing Liu Li's doubts, Cuiwa explained: "The process of condensing ancient runes is the pursuit of the essence of the element, and this is the way for high-level spellcasters to continue to advance, and the elemental form is a by-product of the pursuit of the essence. It's no wonder that you experience this semi-elementalization process with the strength of the third order, and you don't get dizzy. ”

"And this is the fourth ancient rune you've condensed. Although Liu Li only showed the strength of the black and red elements when he accepted Kayla's trial, which stimulated the two characteristics of the elements "chaos" and "death", which did not belong to this world, how could Cuiwa, one of the dragon kings, not see that he also condensed green runes.

"The three runes you condensed before are green, red, and black, and although black and green are opposing color elements, they can also be regarded as the allied colors of red elements. Now that you have begun to condense the white runes, in terms of elemental characteristics, following the previous opposition between 'life' and 'death', you have added the opposition between 'light' and 'darkness' and 'order' and 'chaos', and the burden of three times is so easy to bear. You're just scratching the surface this time, and when you actually start condensing the white runes, it's going to be even tougher, which is why I'm asking you to try again in at least a year. ”

"Okay, I know, Cuiwa ......" Liu Li hesitated for a moment, and stopped talking, he knew that his next question was definitely not a good memory for Cuiwa, "Your world ......"

“...... Do you feel it?" Tsuishwa smiled bitterly, "I guessed before you tried to condense the runes, and I guess I can't hide it this time...... That's right, my world is ruined, with my body. Now I am just a wisp of remnant soul, and the spatial rift in the desert to the west has no possibility of opening. ”

"Uh...... I'm sorry. Liu Li felt that he had really asked a stupid question, but the spellcaster himself was a profession that pursued the essence of the world, and he had a thirst for all the unknown, and he really couldn't hold the question in his heart.

"Well, it's nothing. "It's not once or twice that I've said that I've missed my mouth, especially when I saw Dariga's soul crystal...... You're just guessing in more confidence right now. Besides, it's been so long...... But I still can't tell you the details, and when you get there, you'll know what it all is. ”

"Well, then I won't ask any more. Liu Li ended the topic at the right time.

"Oh, yes. Cuiwa seemed to suddenly remember something, and threw a delicate small bottle made of crystal to Liu Li. The middle part of the bottle is about the thickness of three fingers, and the height is no more than a palm, and there is a crimson liquid tumbling inside, shining with a crystalline texture in the reflection of the morning light. "This is for you, it has been purified, and it can be used as a material for drawing a magic circle...... Well, the top-grade material is comparable to the blood of a high-level demonic beast that contains a huge amount of elements. ”

"Uh, can I ask what this is?" Liu Li had a faint premonition in his heart.

"Blood, the ...... you just squirted," Tsuinwa's tone was full of reason.

......

walked all the way back to the Brilliant Fortress, and when Liu Li returned to the inn, it was just time for breakfast. The companions were already ready to go, and except for Heng, who knew that he was about to experience teleportation again, his face was pale, and everyone else was in good shape.

After having breakfast in a hurry, Liu Li settled the accommodation fee, and after compensating for a solid wood dining table by the way, the group walked straight into the white door unfolded by Kayla.

......

"Alas, this place is really annoying. "The first to complain was Kayla, a super-level white fur who majored in white elements, who didn't have the slightest affection for the environment of the spatial rift. It's no wonder that she wouldn't have such a big reaction if it were at the gathering point of other red elements on the Ode continent, after all, the red elements in this world show the characteristics of "scorching", although they are still the opposite color of the white element, but there is no too violent conflict.

Kayla has lived in symbiosis with Triva for hundreds of years, and is well aware of the "order" nature of the white element, and it is not an exaggeration to think of her as a descendant of the white dragon, but now that she is in an environment full of "chaotic elements", it is natural to feel uncomfortable.

The manic, riotous "element of chaos" permeated the air, so thick that it almost formed a blood-colored mist. The environment that Liu Li faced at the bottom of the dark cave before was completely insignificant compared to here, and it was not worth mentioning. If it weren't for the fact that Tsuwa and Kayla were with them this time, not to mention the three girls Squirrel, Heng and Feili, even Ankka wouldn't have been able to stay here for a long time.

"Has it deteriorated to this extent?" Ankka sighed helplessly, looking at the ruins not far away. It was the ruins of a small village, but now it is empty, and I don't know how long it has been abandoned.

Ankha remembers that it was under his orders that the village was completed. At that time, there were more than two dozen soldiers of the Order who had laid down their weapons in the village, and a few junior spellcasters who were stationed in the Glorious Fortress and were favored by him. A team of thirty people has set up a village here, and its main task is to monitor the situation of the spatial rift at all times, and by the way, it can also provide some convenience for adventurers who are begging for a living in the Forbidden Mountains. Now, however, everything is gone.

"Alas, there were still many people in this village, and there were many adventurers who would use this place as a base to rest and recuperate, but now ......" Ankha whispered to the crowd about the origin of the ruins, with a bitter expression, as if lamenting the passage of time and the fact that things are wrong. It's just that Liu Li always has a feeling, as if the old mage is hiding something, this concealment is not to be bad for everyone, but to swallow the bitter fruit planted in his stomach and bear it alone.

Liu Li can more or less guess the reason - there must be someone who is very important to him who was left here by Anka.

"Be careful, there's a good chance you'll be infested with magical beasts here. "It's the Emerald Tile that speaks, and although the environment here doesn't make the powerful dragon feel uncomfortable, for the dragon soul alone, the perception is more affected than the symbiotic Kayla. Moreover, it has to devote a large part of its energy to protecting the three little girls from the "chaos element".

Liu Li didn't dare to be careless at all, and the "return" had been tightly held in his hands. He still vividly remembered how crazy the chaotic beasts that had been corrupted by the "Chaos Elemental" in the dark cavern were. All they care about is how to shred up their prey, and they can put their own lives on the line.

"It's coming!" the squirrels warned Heng at the same time, proving that their unusual ears were not ornaments.

With a beastly roar, a blood-red figure broke through the fog and appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The body is more than five meters long, with bone spurs on it, fangs and claws all speak of the cruelty of its master, and there is no rational gaze in its bloodthirsty eyes, all of which indicate the ferocity of its predators.

"Be careful! it's a clouded leopard!" Ankka said as he spoke, but his spell casting was not affected in the slightest. Although the old mage can cast spells with a small amount of "chaotic elements", he does not dare to cast them with all his might. He didn't want to suffer from the erosion again, and most importantly, Ankh was afraid of losing his mind again, making an already dire situation even worse.

"Little Liu Li, pay attention. There was a hint of anxiety in Tsuiwa's voice, "Kayla and I are controlling the scope of the spatial rift, and we can't free up our hands for the time being, so we can only rely on you here." ”

Kayla and Triva were helpless, they knew far better than the others what was going on on the other side of the rift. The world without its owner is like a runaway carriage, and although it will inevitably end up destroying the car and killing people, it will also destroy everything that stands in its way until then. The two super-tiers are now jumping into the driver's position, and even if they can't get the carriage back on track, they have to tighten the reins so hard that it doesn't crash into more things.

There is not much time for a person and a dragon to stay in this world, and at this time, they have begun to calm down the fluctuations of the spatial rift, and there is no way to stop it, and in the face of the attack of the demonic beast, they are powerless to help.

Liu Li was shocked when he heard this, although as he expected, after the two super-level came here, they directly took over the most important work, but he didn't expect that this would completely isolate them from the battle.

The clouded leopard's first target was Fei Li, who was standing a little off, and in its chaotic mind, there was no idea such as "the lion should pick a soft pinch", so naturally whoever was closest would choose whoever was the target of the attack.

The Assassin Girl's dagger was already in her hand, and the scarlet mist could not hide the faint blue of the blade. The clouded leopard's surprise attack was blocked by Anka's spell support, but Fei Li took advantage of the situation to return and leap sideways, and the dagger drew an arc in mid-air with her right arm lightly extended, carrying the power of the "Ying" martial art, and stabbed into the clouded leopard's right eye, until it reached the handle.

Then Fei Li took advantage of the situation to kick the huge leopard's head, and reflexively broke out of the battle group, not only eliminating the crisis invisibly, but also causing great damage to the manic demonic beast. Everything happened between the rise and fall of the rabbit, and Fei Li gave full play to her martial arts cultivation that far surpassed Liu Li.

"Beautiful!" Liu Li, who exclaimed, continued to move, although he was not known for his speed, but the length of "Return" was enough to make up for the disadvantage, and a more eye-catching arc spanned a distance of several meters, slashing directly at the back of the clouded leopard's neck.

The "heavy" martial arts that were stacked with several layers suddenly erupted, cutting off countless bone spurs, and the clouded leopard also fell to the ground under this fierce blow.

However, Liu Li's blow was not over, he made a hasty move, he didn't have time to melt the "Shadow Blade" into the scythe of "Return", he could only barely follow it, but on the blade condensed by the "Dark Element", the additional martial arts were not discounted at all. The ensuing attack also slashed heavily at the neck of the demonic beast, and between the shattering of the "shadow blade", the clouded leopard's neck also left a wound more than a meter long and nearly half a meter deep, and the blood that shot out almost drenched Liu Li into a bloody man.
