Chapter 29: The First Entry into the Underworld
The black earth, the white dry bones, and the gray sky are always gloomy, and when you look into the distance, the vast land is full of black and white, and you can't see a trace of other colors, is this the underworld?
Lu Xiaonan shook his dizzy head, crawled out of the big pit that was smashed out, fell on the ground and vomited heavily, vomiting all the things he had eaten before teleporting, and his stomach twitched.
The shock of the spatial shuttle when the formation is teleported is not something that ordinary people can bear, and thanks to the fact that he mistakenly took the Ten Peerless Pills, he reshaped his body by chance, and the strength and tenacity of the body are comparable to those of cultivators in the Ascension Period, otherwise it will be difficult to withstand the power of life and death when the formation is teleported across borders, not to mention that the formation is also the first time that the old guys of the Lu family have used it, and the preparation is not so sufficient, he did not penetrate the boundary barrier with this experimental formation, It was already extremely lucky to be atomized to the point that there was no scum left, but fortunately, he was not dead, the air here is not much different from the earth, although it contains tyrannical meaning, it is still in the acceptable category.
When Lu Xiaonan had nothing to vomit in his abdomen, he took out a bottle of water from his purse to rinse his mouth, lay on the ground and didn't want to move, his whole body was extremely sore, and his sallow face looked a little gray.
He remembered that when he teleported, it seemed that Lu Zi'er, the girl, had also followed, but where was this girl? As far as the naked eye can see, there are endless plains for hundreds of miles, and you can't see half a shadow of a person at all, this girl is really messing around, isn't this making trouble for herself, if she loses it, she can't blame herself, she broke in by herself.
But as Lu Xiaonan, who was affectionately called "brother-in-law" by her, she was still very worried in her heart, and she couldn't leave her alone.
It stands to reason that even if there is a deviation in the teleportation, the two people who enter at the same time will not be too far apart, Lu Xiaonan endured the soreness of his body, walked slowly, and tried to adapt to everything here, feeling that his body was heavier than on the earth, probably because of the difference in gravity.
"Zi'er." Lu Xiaonan shouted loudly to the surroundings, but there were countless echoes, and he was dizzy and dizzy, so he had to give up shouting. He glanced at the mechanical watch on his wrist, and the time didn't seem to be affected, but he always felt that the speed of time here was relatively fast, and usually a breath was only two seconds, but here the second hand moved, he could breathe six or seven times, which should be a good thing for him, according to the time calculation, there are seven days here, and there is only one day on the earth, which means that he has forty-nine days to find Lu Yanran.
Immediately, Lu Xiaonan smiled bitterly again, as if this time he was not only looking for Lu Yanran, but also Lu Zi'er, although Lu Zi'er's matter had little to do with him, but if he didn't bring her back in the end, he wouldn't be able to talk about it in front of those demon foxes of the Lu family.
Lu Xiaonan spent an hour walking through the hundreds of miles of plains, but he didn't find any trace of Lu Zi'er, and he was very helpless.
He sat down on a boulder to rest, taking out his bread to fill his empty stomach first, the silent world only the sound of him tearing open the package and his slight gasp, but any sound would be infinitely amplified on this strange plain, and the same was true of his footsteps as he walked before.
At this moment, a chill suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, and he was immediately alert, and hurriedly rolled around, and there was a loud bang behind him, and a huge blade as black as a rock was plunged into the boulder where he had been sitting before, splashing a piece of debris flying.
After rolling out more than ten meters one after another, Lu Xiaonan jumped up and stood up, raised his eyes to see, in front of him was a huge mantis that was five meters high, his whole body seemed to be covered with black iron-like armor flashing with a faint light, and two sharp pincers were constantly waving, exuding a cold sharp aura.
Lu Xiaonan couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, such a huge praying mantis was the first time to see it in reality, if it appeared in the human world, it might have been captured and studied a long time ago, but here, in the underworld, no one has to catch this mutated monster, and it is not so easy to deal with.
The jade sword appeared in his hand, his eyes were firmly fixed on the praying mantis, and the praying mantis was also staring at him, its sharp teeth rubbing against each other, making a strange creaking sound, and it raised its sharp pincers and approached Lu Xiaonan step by step.
Lu Xiaonan bowed slightly, and when the front paws of the praying mantis clamped towards him again, he rushed forward, and then knelt on his knees, leaned back, the jade sword in his hand emitted a light blue light, and a sword stabbed the mantis's abdomen, but, the imaginary scene of yellow and white juice splashing did not appear, and the jade sword that was invincible before actually missed, and this sword only left a shallow white mark on the mantis's abdomen, and it could not pierce its body at all.
And this sword also aroused the ferocity of the praying mantis, letting out a higher decibel squeak of anger scream, the two front paws towards Lu Xiaonan continued to stab at the pincers, eager to immediately swallow the delicious little thing in front of it that exudes the smell of flesh and blood into its stomach, it is not that it has never seen a human, on the contrary, it has swallowed many humans, but it has never seen a delicious human who makes its heart restless and willing to go crazy for it, it has animal intuition, and swallowing the food in front of it has unimaginable benefits for it.
Lu Xiaonan dodged again and again, and stabbed a sword when he found the opportunity, and he walked away with one touch, but every time he returned in vain. Listening to the sound of gold and iron when the sword came into contact with the body of the praying mantis, he had a big head, he had fought with He Meimei's owl, but the body of this praying mantis was harder than the owl, and it was faster and more flexible, this was simply a living tank, it was not so easy to kill this monster, but what was even more disadvantageous was that it was located in the plain, the area was vast, and the advantage of his physical flexibility was difficult to play, and the speed of the other party seemed to be faster than him.
Lu Xiaonan wandered and struggled with it, and found the opportunity to shoot several times, whether it was the lower abdomen, mouth, body joints or eyes, every time he took out the sword, he couldn't kill this monster, if he took such a monster as a mount, it was much more powerful than rhubarb, except that it looked a little weird, but it was a bit difficult. At this time, he had the intention of leaving, since he couldn't kill this monster, why did he have to do this useless work, it was better to leave, he was here to find his way, but there was no time to entangle with this monster here.
So, at the moment when he staggered with the praying mantis again, Lu Xiaonan's footsteps no longer stopped, and he rushed away in the direction behind the praying mantis.
The praying mantis turned around after a blow, but saw that Lu Xiaonan was gone, and couldn't help but be stunned, what is the situation, yes, this delicacy is going to escape, how can this work! The praying mantis was immediately furious, its body made a clicking sound, and it suddenly spread its wings and chased after Lu Xiaonan, who was far away.
Lu Xiaonan looked back as he ran, the praying mantis spread its wings and flew twice as fast as he ran with all his might, and caught up in the blink of an eye, this time the praying mantis swooped in the air to attack, its steely wings swept over his head, and the strong wind howled, shattering the rocks on the side.
Lu Xiaonan couldn't help but be speechless, but the situation didn't allow him to think too much, the praying mantis had already landed in front of him, twisting its long neck, and its eyeballs bulging out of his body exuded a sarcastic and cruel light, squeaked twice, and waved his front paws to pounce on him again.
"It's really tough." Lu Xiaonan shook his head helplessly and muttered, making a desperate posture, but before he took a step forward, he immediately retreated, turned around and ran in another direction. The praying mantis was stunned again, shouldn't you fight to the death if you can't escape, so that it tastes more delicious and more fulfilling, why do you always want to run, and run away with tricks, do you still have a little ferocity, can you still let yourself eat happily.
This time, Lu Xiaonan ran in a broken line, although he was caught up by the praying mantis spreading his wings again and again, but he dodged again and again with his flexible body, a little embarrassed, but he was not seriously hurt.
However, although this praying mantis is difficult, it also has shortcomings, its huge size can only glide and fly for a short time, which is also an advantage that Lu Xiaonan can take advantage of again and again, so that he has enough time to take out the compass that has been prepared long ago to adjust the direction of running, but here it is the same in the southeast, northwest and northwest, it is a gray and misty plain, and it is difficult to distinguish the direction at all, and it is about the same in any direction.
When he first entered the underworld, he encountered such a monster, and he couldn't beat it, so he could only keep fleeing.
