Chapter 5: The Line Between Life and Death
Chapter 5: The Line Between Life and Death
......
The head wolf deserves to be called the head wolf, and at this critical moment, a strong survivability explodes. With a twist of his waist, he dodged the killing sword, leaving only a wound a foot long. The tingling sensation made it roar lowly, and it opened its mouth to spew out a cloud of frost.
The frost was like a mist and an arrow, shooting towards Lei Qing's chest, and the slightest chill made the originally cold air as sharp as a blade.
"Ice Arrow"
Lei Qing's pupils subconsciously constricted, this bronze-level demon wolf's talent was really amazing, and he could actually use his fighting spirit to form a frost qi arrow to hurt people.
If you are hit by this blow, even if you are lucky enough not to die, you will lose most of your life. Lei Qing was shocked in his heart, he struggled a little on his toes, and his body swept backwards with a few afterimages, which was the Lei family's housekeeper body running thunder. Under the pressure of the surname's life, the speed was exerted to the extreme, but it still did not completely dodge the invasion of the ice arrow, and his arm was stained with a pale white ice mist.
The cold feeling suddenly rushed to the heart along the meridians, and everywhere it passed, it was frozen stiff as ice. Thanks to his timely response, he was able to use enough pure Heavenly Thunder Fighting Qi in his body, and struggled to resist the invasion of cold ice and mist. At the same time, there are constant points under his feet, and he keeps running backwards. The thirst for survival is usually fierce in any species, and he is no exception. In just a few contacts, Lei Qing knew very well that this bronze-level strength head wolf was a powerful rival, and if he didn't do it, he would die in its hands. What's more, it's not acting alone, and there is still half a wolf pack under it.
There is no shame in running away under the pressure of life and death.
The reality is not the blood-boiling and unbeatable protagonist Xiaoqiang in those brave novels, who is dying and struggling at every turn, relying on the explosion of willpower to kill the demon king.
Maybe a few months ago, Lei Qing, who was still a little white-faced boy, would vaguely believe this. But now he knows very well that a novel is a novel after all, and a drama is still just a drama. The reality is far more brutal and bloody than those works of art. It was also thanks to Lei Qing that he retreated faster, and killed two snow wolves in an extremely strange way, and his sharp claws pounced on Lei Qing's afterimage.
After a few months of life and death, between being chased and killed, Lei Qing firmly remembered a truth, that is, there is only one life. As long as there is a slight mistake, maybe this moment will be the last time of his short life, and his fate will also be successfully avenged by the wolves, becoming their wintering meal.
It was not the first time, Lei Qing was tired and a little embarrassed, and the direction he went to was still the Hengduan Mountains. The stomach is hungry and thirsty, and the physical strength and fighting spirit are escaping as fast as possible. He wanted to stop, and he wanted to make the slaughtered wolf into a fragrant dinner to satisfy his hunger. But unfortunately, the remaining wolves in the wolf pack, under the leadership of the head wolf, firmly embraced him in their home field, and the wolf howl made him nervous at all times.
In terms of some survival and combat instincts in the wild, humans are sometimes really inferior to animals, especially the existence of monsters. For the wolf, hunting has become a part of its life. Indeed, if the prey cannot be hunted, then the wolf pack will be greeted with hunger, pain, and even death.
Under the threat of life, the cunning and tenacity of animals are far beyond the imagination of most people. Moreover, the wolf itself is also a species with a strong revenge surname, even if it does not reach the level of demon beasts, when it does not open its spiritual intelligence, when a member of the wolf pack is killed, it will swear to die and refuse to give up to retaliate and hunt for it.
What's more, this head wolf is already a bronze primary-level existence, and his spiritual intelligence is quite good. Of the remaining four plateau snow wolves, one belongs to the beast level, and the other has a black iron level aura, while the head wolf has the strength of the bronze primary rank. It is also on this snow-covered plateau, which is the most suitable hunting ground for them.
Although Lei Qing's lightning speed is fast, the consumption of fighting energy is very intense, especially in such a harsh climate and environment, it is even more difficult.
The reason why Scott, the ghost wolf who died in the hands of Lei Qing before, is nicknamed the ghost wolf, is that he is good at concealing and tracking, making people unable to hide, which shows that the wolf's tracking ability is extremely strong. In the next ten miles, Lei Qing was secretly attacked four times in succession in the perseverance of the remaining wolves, and each time when he was a little slack off and ready to breathe a little, the wolves suddenly harassed and attacked.
What's even more terrifying is that realizing that Lei Qing's powerful wolf pack began to implement harassment tactics, and when they missed with one blow, they immediately flew away and disappeared into the flying snow. But Lei Qing, who was almost exhausted in fighting energy and physical strength, didn't even have time and space to rest when he was exhausted.
Lei Qing, who was extremely embarrassed, was already in tatters at this time, where was there still a little bit of the dashing boy and brother like a few months ago? The wolves use the tactic of harassing exhaustion, so that the prey will run out of strength and rout on its own.
Under this extremely primitive bloody fight, humans may not be smarter than wild beasts, and the hunting instincts and tactical calculations of wild beasts can definitely surprise those who have never experienced it. Lei Qing had already stopped running, and sat cross-legged on the snow with his sword in his backhand, his eyes closed, and he used slow deep breaths to rest his overall strength and mentality.
He knew very well that if he continued to run, there would be only one ending, that is, to die under the wolf's kiss and become the belly of this group of plateau snow wolves. The only glimmer of life is to fight for your life and fight for a single blow to kill the head wolf of the bronze primary. Although the odds of winning are low, Lei Qing has no choice.
The snow is still falling.
The wind whined and screamed, and several dark white figures, stepping on the snow, appeared in the wind and snow with light steps. The sword wound on the wolf's waist didn't know when the bleeding had stopped, and a pair of green and indifferent eyes stared at Lei Qing, who was sitting cross-legged and motionless.
"Wow~Woo~"
The wolf let out a mournful roar, and now it was not just to feed its stomach for prey. In the world of wolves, it is also full of grievances and hatreds. Including the head wolf, four vicious wolves rushed from four directions, carrying gusts of vicious winds.
Lei Qing still didn't move, holding the hand of the long sword Ice Flame, calm and without the slightest trembling feeling.
Just when the two sides were only a few feet away, and at the same time, Lei Qing, who was almost doused like a sculpture by the wind and snow, moved, and all the remaining physical strength and fighting spirit broke out in an instant. Really, it is as quiet as a virgin and moving like a rabbit, and it is like a thunder on the ground. The sword ice flame emitted a cold light, and the sizzling thunder and lightning pierced the sky like a meteor, stabbing the throat of the head wolf.
His gaze was like iron, only the throat of the head wolf and nothing else in his heart. This sword, so resolute, so determined, that it got rid of all the fancy, and took the nearest straight line distance between the two points.
A word lightning sword.
The sword moves contained in the Heavenly Thunder Three Transformations Battle Technique are simple and direct, combined with the Thunder Dodge Method, and the Heavenly Thunder Fighting Qi is the fundamental driving force to form a swift move. There is only one mystery of this move, and that is fast. But it is precisely because of the only focus on speed, so if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent, which is a desperate trick.
A few zhang distance, just a moment, the two sides were staggered. At the throat of the head wolf of the bronze first rank, a fatal wound with a slight charred black appeared. And Lei Qing's abdomen, but under the desperate counterattack of the head wolf, several claw marks that penetrated deep into the abdomen were torn out by sharp claws, and while the fighting qi of the ice surname was poured into his body, his body was stiffened for a while, and his face turned pale in the blue.
It's over, it's all over. As soon as the remaining three wolves saw that the first wolf was killed instantly, they immediately stopped their charge, and fled directly with their tails between their whimpers. They didn't know that the terrifying human who could kill their leader was already exhausted at this moment, and they didn't even have the strength to lift their fingers.
But the crisis has not been resolved. Lei Qing, who had exhausted his fighting qi, was unable to run the Heavenly Thunder Dou Qi to resist the double cold in his body and outside his body, and his blood and skin gradually became stiff under the cold ice. Even if his physique is far beyond that of ordinary people, if he continues like this, he will only need half a pillar of incense, and he will freeze here, dying.
"Yu Shanshan, Yu Tianji. As soon as Lei Qing thought of these two names, a raging fire burned in his heart. It was these two people who forced him to be like a lost dog, and he was endlessly chased and killed in the Eastern Hiding Province. In the end, he was forced to die on this deserted ice and snow plateau.
Unwilling, really unwilling. At least, he was unwilling to let Yu Shanshan be as satisfied. was even more unwilling, he died in obscurity, it was over, and he died with a bronze beginner-level snow wolf. Perhaps, in Yu Shanshan's eyes, she is just a little person who can be pinched to death at will. And in the eyes of Yu Tianji, the head of the cabinet, he is not even a speck of dust. But, didn't he swear an oath before? No matter what, he must let Yu Shanshan and Yu Tianji taste the anger and power of the little people? Could it be that the hardships of the past few months have been in vain?
In the body, I don't know from somewhere, it seems to gradually gather some strength, although it is extremely weak. It was this little bit of strength that made his fingers seem to tremble slightly. The almost half-awake and half-dazed mind, driven by an unusually powerful survival instinct, moved, and even he didn't know it, little by little moved to the side of the wolf, opened his mouth and bit its broken throat, desperately sucking its residual blood.
The wolf's blood still had some warmth left, and it was this warmth that made his increasingly stiff body warm slightly, and gradually regained some strength.
