Chapter Seventy-One: Shemale Bickering
After all, after suffering the other party's losses, Xu Chen didn't dare to be careless, he was afraid that the demon mantis was cheating to death and deceiving himself, as the cold stars lit up in his eyes, he Huo Ran slashed out at the demon mantis, and suddenly a surging sword qi slashed out in the air.
"Bell!" A cloud of sparks splashed, and the brutal and violent force counterattacked, how could Xu Chen compete with it, and his body immediately retreated dozens of steps.
"Strange! I saw the demon mantis pull out the green dragon spear, why did the enchantment still exist, and this old monster didn't escape?"
Just when Xu Chen was startled, suddenly his eyes lit up, and a sea of fire appeared in the position where the demon cockroach was, and the flames spat out a long tongue of fire, which seemed to be rushing towards Xu Chen at any time.
But this kind of thrilling thing didn't happen, and the magic mantis who was sitting in the middle of the flames just glanced at Xu Chen in distraction, and then turned away.
Looking at him, Xu Chen had a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had met a stranger he had never met.
This made Xu Chen more and more surprised, and he couldn't help but shout: "Demon, where did you get the Qinglong Spear?"
The magic mantis replied with a blank look, "It flew away, to where it was supposed to be." ”
"You say it...... Flew away?" Xu Chen was stunned, thinking that no matter how magical the Qinglong Spear was, it was just a weapon, could it spread its wings like a phoenix and not be able to fly? This was clearly the Demon Mantis wanting to swallow the artifact alone, and was deliberately lying!
Thinking of this, Xu Chen's expression changed, and he shouted: "Do you think the master is so easy to deceive? If you don't hand it over, the master will be finished with you!"
"Do you think you're qualified for a legendary artifact? In fact, every artifact is spiritual, and it chooses a qualified warrior to become its owner. ”
After being in a daze for a while, the magic mantis continued: "It's not the person favored by the artifact, even if you can get it, you won't be able to exert the divine power that the artifact should have, and it will eventually abandon you." ”
"So, the Blue Dragon Spear abandoned you?"
At the beginning, the Vermilion Bird Sword strangely disappeared from his hand, Xu Chen still remembered it vividly, and now that he heard the Demon Claw say this, he couldn't help but believe it a little.
At this moment, the Demon Mantis's face turned pale, his eyes became even more hollow, and he muttered: "Heaven's will, this is all heaven's will! No matter who it is, no matter how powerful it is, he can't get rid of the shackles of the Heavenly Dao on him!"
After saying these deeply touching words, he let out a long sigh from the depths of his chest, lowered his head, and did not answer Xu Chen's several questions.
Xu Chen couldn't help but get irritable, and yelled at him: "Demon, what are you doing!
The magic mantis still didn't answer, the pair of demon eyes that seemed to have lit two lamps, and the light in the pupils was gradually dimming.
Xu Chen's heart sank, a few days ago, he was unruly, indiscriminately killing innocents, and how arrogant the demon venerable demon was now in his eyes, which made him a little dazed, and he didn't know what to do.
For a moment, Xu Chen thought that he had recognized the wrong person, this old demon had completely become a poor worm, although he was still alive, his heart was dead.
Xu Chen hesitated in his heart, he was very worried that this was a trap, he suspected that what he saw just now was all pretended by the magic mantle, in order to lure himself into being fooled.
He had no choice but to take a few steps forward cautiously with the Ice Sword, observing the Demon Mantis from a distance, and when he saw the black and shiny long iron chains on the feet of this down-and-out Demon Venerable, which had turned into the shape of shackles, although he didn't understand what was going on, it also made Xu Chen guess the reason for the Demon Mantis's low mood, and he couldn't help laughing!
"You old monster, you still haven't been able to break free from the shackles of Dijiang for a long time! What a wreck!
Xu Chen smiled and said, "Accept your fate, you demon takes yourself too seriously, in fact, you are a useless seed!"
"Shut your foul mouth!" the mantis finally reacted, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and then said hatefully, "If it weren't for that old immortal who played us around, the deity would have screwed off your head by now!"
The Demon Claw gasped, and all the disappointment and frustration he had just felt turned into rage.
"Boy, do you think that with the support of Emperor Jiang, you dare to show off your might in front of the deity? In fact, you, like me, were toyed with by this old immortal and applauded!"
"What do you mean by that?" Xu Chen listened inexplicably, but sensed that there seemed to be a mystery hidden in the words of the demon mantis. "I'm not a monster, what are you doing with me and Dijiang?"
"Haha! It turns out that you are more pitiful than me, and you don't know anything! No, it's not that you don't know, but you're self-righteous and want to rely on the money in your hand to make fun of me!"
The Demon Mantis laughed sharply, and the laughter was like a sour cry, and at the end he said, "Actually, it's better not to know the truth, at least it won't be so painful when you die." ”
"What the hell are you ...... What do you say, do you want to confuse the crowd?" Xu Chen was dumbfounded, he was confused by the demon mantis with great ups and downs, and for a while he forgot that the purpose of his coming to the Evil Dragon Valley was to kill this monster that was harming the people.
"Do you still think that Dijiang's primordial spirit is possessed by you? I tell you honestly, he took advantage of the opportunity of being an enemy of the deity, regained his freedom, and now has returned to this world. ”
"You are talking nonsense, I have nothing to do with Dijiang at all!" Although his voice was very loud, Xu Chen's heart had already made waves.
Originally, he had forgotten all about what happened in the mysterious cave of Chongwu Mountain, but when he was with Wang Shen later, he secretly activated all his memories with a mandala, so that he knew that he had such a bizarre encounter before.
Although he was still ignorant and didn't quite understand what was going on in the cave at that time, the Demon Mantis didn't know what he had experienced before, and now he was able to bite the god who was dormant in his body was the Demon Emperor Jiang, which was really a strange thing!
"It's ridiculous, I thought I had picked up a treasure and could end the life of the old immortal in my own hands, but it turned out that I was calculated by the old immortal, it turns out that we are all his pawns, chess pieces!"
The cockroach screamed, but his voice grew lower and lower, and finally fell silent.
But what he said, Xu Chen couldn't hear it anymore, the past was spinning in his mind like a marquee, the god had rescued himself from danger several times, although the way he appeared was not flattering, but judging from his behavior, this god did not look like a cold-blooded and ruthless person.
And Di Jiang is the ancestor of all demons, the great devil who has brought great disasters to the world, the difference between the two is too great, one is a high god, the other is an old demon who ravages all beings, how can they be the same person!
Thinking of this, Xu Chen couldn't help but get angry, raised his sword and pointed at the lost demon and scolded: "When is it, dare to deceive the master, I will kill you!"
"Kill me, do you have what it takes?" the mantis gave him a disdainful look.
"Demon look at the sword!" Xu Chen's voice was hoarse, the long sword in his hand swung wildly, and several cold ice qi roared out, slashing the past like a bamboo!
However, his actions were all in vain in the face of the forbidden spell set by Di Jiang, and Xu Chen's fierce attack could not hurt the Demon Mantis for half a point.
Seeing Xu Chen's tired and panting appearance, the Demon Mantis couldn't help but sneer and said, "It's really beyond your strength, just with your bear-like appearance, you also want to compete with the power of Dijiang?"
"Di Jiang is a hairy, don't think that you can't die if you hide under his protection like a shrunken turtle!"
"Hey, boy, the deity remembers you. Thirty years later, when the deity comes out again, he will definitely torture you before killing you!"
Speaking of this, the disdain in the eyes of the demon mantis became even more obvious: "I almost forgot, you are just a lowly human being, and I am afraid that in thirty years, you will be a pile of white bones." ”
"Hmph, sure enough, the dog can't change its eating, so it's honest and arrogant again!" Xu Chen replied unceremoniously, and at the same time came up with an idea in his heart.
So he opened his mouth and shouted: "Demon, the master is hungry now, and I will come to you to settle accounts when I am full!" After speaking, he strode out of this demon hall.
"Phew, running away can be said to be so high-sounding......" The magic mantis wanted to laugh a few more words, but Di Jiang's forbidden spell began to take effect, and an unstoppable sleepiness occupied his entire mind, making him fall into a deep sleep.
This is indeed an excuse that Xu Chen came up with temporarily, since he ate that danmu flower, he still doesn't feel hungry, and the reason why he wants to leave temporarily now is so that he can kill this old monster when he comes back.
This brutal battle was so badly injured, but Xu Chen found that he could almost recover in a short period of time, and he knew that it was because he had eaten that divine fruit.
Since entering the Demon Palace, that new force has been scurrying around in his body from time to time, reminding Xu Chen to transform it into his own cultivation in time, otherwise it will be a waste in vain, and in the end, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Xu Chen pondered that since he had such an adventure, if he didn't hurry up and cultivate, wouldn't it be a tyrannical thing?
During the battle with the Demon Mantis, he was deeply impressed by the powerful strength of this old monster. At the same time, Di Jiang's forbidden spell not only sealed the freedom of movement of the demon mantle, but also played a protective role, making it difficult for outsiders to kill him, but Xu Chen was not too worried about this.
Anyway, there is no way for me to leave the Evil Dragon Valley now, so it is better to take this opportunity to cultivate well, if you can turn all the energy of the Divine Fruit into yourself, your cultivation will definitely be greatly improved, and if you are lucky, you may be able to break through the current realm and step into the threshold of the Xuantian Realm!
If he really reached that realm, it would be good news for Xu Chen, even if he still couldn't kill the demon claw by then, he would not be afraid of a murderous demon like Ouyang Lin when he returned to the world, no matter what aspect it was, this was a harmless thing, why not?
When he left the demon hall that imprisoned the demon mantle, Xu Chen was a little embarrassed, he remembered that he had said a big thing to those senior heroes in the country before, but now he came out with nothing, which could not but be said to be a very humiliating thing.
So Xu Chen didn't go back the same way, but took another road, so as not to be speechless after accidentally encountering these lonely souls on the road.
Don't look at the Evil Dragon Valley as the lair of the Demon Cantis, but after Xu Chen and the others tossed it down, they not only killed a lot of monsters, but also deterred many demon spirits, plus the evil gods were also beaten away, now the valley can be said to be very quiet, if someone cultivates here, it is really a good place.
Along the way, Xu Chen finally found a small forest near a clear stream, and after entering, he sat down and cultivated quietly.
As Xu Chen entered the meditation, his body slowly floated from the ground and hung in the void, he kept condensing the true qi in his body, letting it stimulate the energy of the divine fruit, and then transform it into his own cultivation little by little.
