Chapter 3: Thirty Miles of Battle
Qiao Cheng is quiet at night.
The crowd that had left the auction was quickly swallowed up by the night, and it was once again as cold as it should be.
This kind of small town, sure enough, there will be no nightlife.
Sand, sand.
The blue-eyed boy walked ahead, and after eating a piece of lotus petals, his injuries were temporarily recovered, and he was not only able to walk, but also deaf and bright.
Wow, wow.
A man in an official robe holding a sword walked behind with steps.
Duan Chong still chose to help Yue Qing after all, and the last sword slash was just to split the cage.
Although he knew that he had no future with the black gauze woman, his friendship over the years was difficult for him to let go, and even if he would die, he would not let her down.
As for Yue Qing's sin, whether it is true or not, it will be decided after ten days.
"You seem to have decided that she would buy Tianyan Dan, and you also thought that I would escort you away. Duan Chong didn't speed up his pace, just followed.
The boy nodded, in his memory, he had been observing around Qiao's Mansion, and he had indeed discovered the secret of the black gauze woman, and also discovered Duan Chong's love for the woman, so he planned to exchange Tianyan Dan for love Qiao He.
As soon as he arrived in the center of Qiao Cheng, Duan Cheng suddenly found that although the two of them had different footsteps, they seemed to have stepped on the same rhythm, as if they were arranging a formation!
He was secretly surprised, this kind of rhythm can be offensive and defensive, and it can greatly improve the combat power of the two, the so-called one plus one is greater than two, but this matter is not dominated by him, but unconsciously pulled by the boy in front.
A little doll with only 'three wisps of demonic energy' has such a high combat realm!
What is the origin of the fox demon?
In terms of combat strength, Duan Chong thinks that he is above Yue Qing, but when it comes to knowledge and state of mind, he has no confidence at this moment, and he is becoming more and more curious about Yue Qing's identity.
"Someone!"
Arriving at the central street, Duan Chong glanced behind him and found that there were dozens of figures following, nine of them followed calmly at the end, they should have reached the realm of martial artists, and the others were the same as Yue Qing, at most a few wisps of colorless vitality, and had not yet condensed the Yuan Soul.
"Nine Chiyuan Realm ......"
Although he had been mentally prepared, Duan Chong was still sweating on his forehead.
In the Phantom Spirit Continent, anyone with a heart can cultivate.
At the beginning of cultivation, the vitality enters the body from the skin, and the vitality is colorless.
After condensing nine wisps of vitality, it can be condensed into a yuan soul in the dantian, and the vitality becomes red, entering the body from the skin and flesh, which is called 'Chiyuan Realm', and then it can be regarded as a martial artist.
Continue to cultivate, every wisp of vitality will deepen, and when nine wisps of extremely red vitality are condensed, you can break through to the 'Xiaxi Realm', and the vitality will change from red to orange, and enter the body from the blood vessels all over the body.
There is also the 'Golden Bone Realm' of yellow vitality, the 'Spring Mansion Realm' of green vitality, and the 'Spirit Vein Realm' of cyan vitality......
The nine wisps of vitality in the same realm, although the basic color is the same, are different shades, and they also have a great impact on combat power.
Duan Chong is a Nine Red Martial Artist, he already belongs to the extremely red vitality, and he is only a trace away from entering the 'Xiaxi', which can be regarded as the strongest in Qiao Cheng, and the nine people who follow behind him are less than nine wisps, and their combat power is weaker than him, but it is still very difficult to fight nine against one.
As the leader of the guards, Duan Chong had never been afraid of fighting, but he was a little nervous at the moment, not afraid of death, but afraid of the disappointment of his beloved woman, he made up his mind that even if he died, he would try his best to keep Yue Qing alive.
He took a deep breath and looked ahead, but Yue Qing was still in a relaxed posture.
Very puzzled.
Are you not aware of the enemy behind you?
Is it the calmness of knowing that you will die?
Or do you have the confidence to outperform these nine Chiyuan warriors?
Duan Chong didn't know what Yue Qing thought, so he could only try to adjust his mood to maintain the rhythm of his pace.
It was only three miles from the central street to the city gate, and in normal times, he could reach it in no more than three breaths, but today he seemed to have walked all day.
This was the most uncomfortable part of the road he had ever walked since he cultivated.
"Who is it, the gates are closed, and no ...... can be ?"
The two soldiers guarding the city woke up from their sleep, and when they saw that it was Duan Guard, they immediately stood up straight and saluted, for a remote place like Qiaocheng, the city gate is just a decoration, and any warrior can break into the city.
"Open the door and don't meddle with it. ”
Duan Chong glanced backwards, and the two soldiers saw a large figure and were so frightened that they opened the door and ran.
"After leaving the city, they will do it, I can only protect you to thirty miles outside the city, and how to protect yourself in the future depends on yourself. Duan Chong took a deep breath, he couldn't really protect Yue Qing for five days, thirty miles was already his limit.
"Thirty miles, that's enough. The blue-eyed boy nodded calmly.
The two of them stepped out of the city gate together.
Qiao City belongs to the Great Wuzhou in the Southern Region, located in the remote and wild area of the Phantom Continent, underdeveloped, except for the residential areas of various towns, the outside of the city is covered by a large forest, and only small roads connect between the cities.
And such a dense forest is just right for raiding!
Whoosh!
As soon as he walked ten miles, there was a sharp sound of breaking the air behind him.
Duan Chong lifted the scabbard, bent down and swept, and more than a dozen arrows crackled and landed.
These are the bows and arrows put by ordinary cultivators, they know that they are not Duan Chong's opponents, so they want to rely on long-range hidden weapons to sneak attack, but they don't know that for a Chiyuan martial artist, the speed of these bows and arrows is not fast, and they can all be blocked without a sword.
Whoosh!
The bow and arrow continued, and Duan Chong followed the pace closely, not only blocking the arrow, but also continuing to keep up with Yue Qing's pace.
Suddenly, he noticed the footsteps of the boy in front of him pause, and the rhythm changed significantly, and Duan Chong's heart was shocked, and the three-foot long sword was suddenly unsheathed!
Poof.
The blade stabbed behind him, and a stream of blood gushed out, and the opponent's sword was only an inch from his neck!
It's dangerous!
Due to the nervousness in his heart, coupled with the darkness of the night and the interference of the sound of bows and arrows, Duan Chong didn't notice that someone was hiding in the bow and arrow to sneak attack, if it weren't for Yue Qing's sudden change of rhythm to remind him, he would have been in a different place at this moment.
Glancing back, there was only one corpse behind him.
If he fought head-on, Jiuchi Duan Chong had a 10% chance of winning, but in this night's sneak attack, he almost died at the hands of a much weaker martial artist.
Actual combat really can't just look at cultivation!
"There are eight more. ”
He let out a long breath, and this instant kill also stopped the others, and the bow and arrow stopped.
But what happened to Yue Qing just now? Why could a child who was not yet a martial artist be able to detect the disguise of a sneak attacker?
He was even more curious about Yue Qing's identity.
After another three miles, when his mood gradually calmed down, three strong men came to slash with knives, Duan Chong took out his sword behind his back, and three heads fell to the ground.
These three were not warriors.
Three miles later, three more strong men who were not afraid of death were sent to death in the same way.
In the twentieth mile, the three of them still came to slash with swords, Duan Chong took out his sword as before, but accidentally stabbed into the air, and they had already flashed behind Yue Qing.
"Oops!
It turned out that these three people hid Yuan Li, pretending to be ordinary thugs like before to send them to death, and finally suddenly burst out Yuan Li to avoid Duan Chong and take Yue Qing directly.
It was the cannon fodder of the first two waves that made Duan Chong relax his vigilance.
Three knives, one to cut off the head, one to cut the waist, and one to cut the leg.
The three are all Chiyuan martial artists, and a child with only three wisps of colorless demonic energy, how can he survive?
Duan Chong was extremely remorseful, no matter how great his ability was, it was impossible for him to teleport over, he seemed to have seen the disappointed eyes of the black gauze woman!
But at this moment, a scene that made him jaw-dropping appeared!
I saw that the blue-eyed boy suddenly turned around, did not dodge or dodge, and his fist collided head-on with the knife in the middle!
While!
With a crisp sound, the knife actually flew out of his hand, and the boy's fist only had a shallow mark, which was not an injury, and then it deftly drilled out of the gap between the other two knives and landed in front of Duan Chong.
Actually lived!
How can a fist compete with a sharp blade? Such a physical body is stronger than many body cultivators who specialize in body refining, and this scene made several people around him stunned at the same time.
Duan Chong's gaze froze, the long sword quickly clicked twice, the red yuan force turned into sword qi and burst out, and the two martial artists let out a miserable scream.
And the last one wanted to run, but he was hit in the chest with a palm, and his internal organs were shattered and he died.
The three martial artists were instantly seconded, and Duan Chong's frontal combat power deserved to be the first in Qiao City.
"And five more!"
Taking a deep breath, the two stepped forward over the corpse, and although the dozens of people behind were still there, they were no longer as tight as before.
After another ten miles, and when they reached the thirtieth mile, the sky was about to become brighter, and a river could be seen in front of them.
This river spans the forest, although it is only a dozen zhang wide, but the river is turbulent and cannot go into the water, because it leads to the Thousand Lake Prison, so it is called the prison river.
Between the two banks of the river is an arm-thick chain, which is the bridge.
"Quick!
If he crosses this river, Duan Chong guards the chain alone, and no matter how many enemies there are, he can also be a husband and a wife.
But apparently the other side also understands that this is the last chance.
"Kill!"
With a roar of rage, no matter what the plan was, the black crowd pressed up one by one.
Dozens of strong men, plus five warriors!
Faced with this, Duan Chong was not sad and happy, compared to the previous intrigues, he preferred this kind of heart-to-face battle.
If you win, you live, if you lose, you die, the battle in his heart should be so simple and rude!
In an instant, blood splattered, limbs flew sideways, screams were repeated, and in front of the warriors, those ordinary thugs with brute force had no power to fight back, and they couldn't even see where the wounds were.
"Six!"
"Seven! and two!"
In the melee, three more Chiyuan Realms were killed, and Duan Chong also had multiple knife wounds.
As for Yue Qing, he had just arrived at the shore, but he was blocked by a three-red martial artist.
Duan Chong was exhausted from the continuous fierce battles, and he was held back by a Seven Red Martial Artist and couldn't get out.
Therefore, if Yue Qing wanted to cross the river, he had to face this three-red martial artist alone.
"It's surprising that you can live until now, kid, so many warriors are buried with you, you can be blinded after you die!"
The man didn't have a weapon, but his bare hands were wrapped with red yuan power, and a huge fist wind rushed towards him.
Yue Qing couldn't avoid it, he was not a martial artist, and he swung his right fist again and collided decisively!
Bang!
"What!"
The man on the other side was full of horror, and the fist just now seemed to hit the steel plate, and both of them staggered back.
But it's not just him, the boy at the moment frowned, because he didn't have the advantage on this punch.
Through the memories of the fusion, Yue Qing knew that his dantian had been shattered since he was a child, and his cultivation had grown slowly, and it took ten years to condense three wisps of colorless demonic qi.
But because of this, he can only focus more on refining the flesh, plus he has a special background and a strong physique, so that he can have a physique that is not weaker than that of a martial artist at a young age.
But the other party had obviously also tempered his physical body, and the gap in cultivation was too big, so Yue Qing didn't have any confidence in breaking through.
At this moment, the three red warriors pounced fiercely again, a fist the size of a casserole, and went straight to Yue Qingmian's door!
This punch seems to use martial arts, not only is it fast, but it is even more powerful!
Yue Qing couldn't avoid it, and in a hurry, he hit him with his fist again!
Boom!
Really!
The punch runs from the fingers to the back of the hand to the entire arm, and if it continues, it will hit the heart.
Once the fist is broken, not only the arm will be scrapped, but the heart may also be shattered!
At this moment, the stone pendant on his chest became hot again, and his body suddenly opened up, as if opening some kind of passage, and the strength of his fist was like a flood, easily pouring into his body from his right arm, and finally running to his left arm.
During this period, there was no damage to the right arm and the body, including the heart, but in the end, the strength of the left hand could not be removed, and it shattered with a clatter.
The three red warriors looked incredulous, he didn't understand why he couldn't clean up a little doll after using martial arts.
Yue Qing was even more frightened, this kind of separation of power transmission was beyond his comprehension.
The stone pendant was hot just now, and there was also a fever when fusing the memory, and the stone pendant followed the soul through it, is all this related to the stone pendant?
The left hand was in severe pain, but Yue Qing didn't have time to think about it, and when the other party was surprised, he grabbed it with his right hand and dragged it, and the three red warriors fell forward and ate.
But he jumped on the chain.
"What kind of freak is this?"
Generally speaking, after a violent collision, it is difficult to recover the strength all at once, not to mention the opposite drag, there is no doubt that this little demon's body is strange.
Yue Qing endured the severe pain, and ran fast with iron chains on his feet, as long as he crossed the river, Duan Escort could also retreat with his whole body.
But at this moment, a strong sense of life and death crisis came from behind.
He instinctively turned around, and a bronze ancient sword appeared in front of his face.
"It's you!"
