Chapter 12: In the Woods

A shower has just stopped.

After the green mountains are empty and rainy, the air in the mountains and forests is fresh, and the branches and leaves are full of dewdrops, drop by drop, like pearls and jade.

Xia Huang stood on the cliff, breathing in the fresh air and looking calm.

Trials, fierce battles, fighting, and sometimes, you also need to be quiet, always keep your mind calm, and not indulge in the desire and pleasure of killing.

Well?

Suddenly, Xia Huang stared slightly.

Under the cliff, in the woods not far away, five figures appeared, walking together.

These five people, all fifteen or sixteen, and about eighteen years old, men and women, wore sword robes, carried long swords and hard bows, and wore strong outfits.

Disciple of the Sword Pavilion.

The Demon Nightmare Forest is not far from the Sword Pavilion, and it is not strange that there are often disciples of the Sword Pavilion who come to try it.

However, Xia Huang saw a familiar figure in this group.

The girl has a delicate body, a snow-white robe, black hair tied behind her head, beautiful and concise, if it is not Yuan Qingshi, who will it be?

I didn't expect her to come to the Demon Forest for trial.

What a coincidence.

"I heard that Xia Huang can cultivate, and he is still on the sword stage, and he has comprehended eighteen first-class swordsmanship, is this all true?"

A woman who was traveling with her was talking to Yuan Qingshi, and while she was talking, she also mentioned Xia Huang.

At the mention of Xia Huang, Yuan Qingshi's eyes couldn't help but light up, and she nodded heavily, "Well, of course it's true, Brother Huang has been rated as a heaven-level qualification." ”

It seems that Xia Huang was rated as a heaven-level qualification, which is more exciting and proud than she herself won this honor.

"Since you can cultivate, why didn't he come with you for this trial?" asked the fellow woman again.

This woman, with a face like the moon, a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, a long figure, and a pair of long legs is even more slim.

Standing with Yuan Qingshi, the two women are like a perfect match, although they have different temperaments, they complement each other.

This woman, Xia Huang is no stranger. Her name is Zhou Xian, and she is the leader of the younger generation of the Sword Pavilion, and the thickness of the Xuanmai Realm's vitality has reached three hundred and fifty inches, and she ushered in a breakthrough a while ago and entered the Spirit Body Realm. is known as one of the few people among the younger generations who are qualified to compete with Situ Langya.

Zhou Xian and Xia Huang don't have much intersection, but they have a good relationship with Yuan Qingshi.

"These days, I haven't seen Brother Huang much, he should be alone, cultivating behind closed doors. Yuan Qingshi said.

As if thinking of something, Zhou Xian frowned slightly and said, "Xia Huang, is he going to participate in the Sword Meeting?"

Yuan Qingshi was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "This is related to the fate of Longtang, I think, Brother Huang will not give up easily." ”

"This ......"

Zhou Xian opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she stopped it again, but just shook her head.

As the leader of the younger generation of the Sword Pavilion, Su Xian also has her own pride, facing Situ Langya, even she thinks she doesn't have much chance of winning, let alone Xia Huang?

What is the significance of Xia Huang's participation in the meeting of the sword?

Hearing that they were going to participate in the Sword Meeting, the other three people who were traveling with them also shook their heads and smiled without saying a word.

"I think, if you have a chance, you still have to persuade Xia Huang. Some gaps cannot be bridged, reality is reality, and sometimes, if you are too persistent, it is you who are hurt. ”

The five of them gradually moved away, and Zhou Xian whispered to Yuan Qingshi.

Yuan Qingshi pinched the corners of her clothes, lowered her head slightly, and did not speak.

Xia Huang did not go to meet Yuan Qingshi and the others, he preferred to cultivate alone.

Moreover, the intensity of his trial, I am afraid that Yuan Qingshi and others will be difficult to adapt to.

As for Yuan Qingshi's safety, with Zhou Xian here and someone walking together, there should be no problem.

It's not the first time these people have come to the Demon Forest for trial.

More than an hour later.

In a forest, frightened birds flew, and countless leaves and feathers were raised, fluttering and flying in the air.

From time to time, a stream of sword light rose up.

It's like there's a fierce battle going on!

"What happened?"

On the cliff, looking at the movement of the trees in the distance, Xia Huang frowned.

If you see it correctly, it is the direction in which Yuan Qingshi and others are going.

How much time has been left now,

Something happened?

After thinking about it, Xia Huang's figure jumped up and galloped towards the direction of the woods.

Among these five people, there is Yuan Qingshi, how can Xia Huang turn a blind eye?

It didn't take long for Xia Huang to arrive at the place where the incident occurred in the woods. Stepping on a tree, looking down, seeing the scene in the woods, it was as quiet as summer, and I couldn't help but take a slight breath of cold air.

In the woods, in a clearing with a radius of more than 100 meters, Zhou Xian, Yuan Qingshi, and the three people who traveled with them were back to back, forming a battle circle. The five men were holding swords and bows, their expressions nervous and solemn, their hair scattered, all panting lowly, apparently having experienced fierce battles.

The robe is stained with blood, I don't know how many, it is from the other party in the fierce battle, and how many are it?

And around the five of them, it was densely packed with blood-colored hyenas.

These hyenas, with dark red hair, as if cast from thick dark blood, have ugly and terrifying faces, and their pupils glow with green glow, like a ghost fire lantern, staring at Yuan Qingshi and the five people, revealing a cruel and vicious light.

This is a first-order demon beast, a corpse hyena, with a ferocious temperament and a perverted penchant for flesh and blood. Although the individual strength of the corpse hyena is not very strong, it is a social demon beast, once it smells blood, it is like a leech, gathering from all sides, and it has the characteristics of not being afraid of death, which is extremely difficult.

In the surrounding woods, at least hundreds of corpse hyenas gathered, roaring and whimpering one after another. Even farther into the woods, roaring from far and near, more remnant hyenas gathered.

It's like coming to a feast of flesh and blood.

The luck of Zhou Xian and Yuan Qingshi is really good.

"Woohoo!"

With a roar, several corpse remnant hyenas jumped up, and in their open mouths, they dragged the crystal saliva and launched an attack.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Among Yuan Qingshi's five people, a young man with a bow opened his bow and shot four arrows in a row, shooting the corpse hyena that jumped to the front and flew upside down, nailing it to a tree a few meters away. However, he was about to shoot the arrow again, but the hand that reached for the quiver was empty. In the quiver, there are no arrows!

The corpse hyena roared and pounced.

A coquettish sound sounded, Yuan Qingshi, who was standing beside the young man, struck with a sword, pierced the eyebrows of the corpse remnant hyena, and the sword qi penetrated his head, bringing up hot blood, ending the corpse remnant hyena's life on the spot.

It's just this thorn, but it attracted more corpse remnant hyenas, surging like a tide, and pounced on Yuan Qingshi.

"Qing Shi!"

Zhou Xian and the others had also been entangled and fighting with the corpse hyenas, and when they saw this scene, they were all shocked, but they couldn't help at all.

Seeing the crazy corpse remnant hyena, he was about to swallow Yuan Qingshi.

A sword light burst on.

The sword light was like lightning, and it was like a swimming dragon, and in the midst of the swift sweep, blood splashed, and the corpse remnants of Yuan Qingshi's hyenas were all ambushed, and fell to the ground like tattered sandbags.

Immediately after, a figure jumped down.

Narrowly wrapped in tumbling sword qi, like boundless fallen leaves, fluttering and sprinkling.

Xia Huang is here!
