Chapter 174: Breaking the Formation
The person who came was Mu Chen, and his appearance was an accident, but it caused the atmosphere at the scene to freeze for a short time.
A green leaf leaves the branch, slowly falls from a high place, and quietly falls to the ground.
Mu Chen hurriedly glanced at Mu Xiao's corpse, and then stared at the two foreigners in his field of vision, his eyes revealing a strong killing intent. However, he did not act rashly. No matter how arrogant and conceited he is, but after all, he is not that kind of stupid person, he knows very well that with his own strength, he is definitely not the enemy of the two opposite.
For Bian Yao and Twilight Song, this kind of emergency moment of life and death escape, one more delay is more dangerous. The two glanced at each other, and they both saw a bit of helpless surprise in each other's eyes, but more of them had the same thoughts!
Because of Mu Wanyan's relationship, if it can be avoided, neither of them is willing to fight Mu Chen. However, due to the urgency of the situation, it is more dangerous to stay longer. The two of them quickly turned around, intending to leave.
Seeing this, Mu Chen's expression was fierce, and his right hand suddenly raised the wooden knife, piercing the sharp blade through his left palm, and after the blood-stained blade, he quickly plunged the blood-stained wooden knife into the ground.
Suddenly, the wooden knife transformed into a green bark young tree, and in an instant, it grew into a green tree more than two feet high. Looking at Mu Chen's face and arms again, a strange layer of oil green suddenly floated, and he didn't pause at all, but just took a step forward, and stepped into the body of the tree, which actually merged with the green tree.
In the next breath, with the green tree as the center, within a radius of half a mile, all the trees seemed to be endowed with souls, and began to break through the ground and move, forming tall tree walls in a kind of siege, quickly encircling the center.
Bian Yao and Twilight Song had just run forward ten zhang away, when they suddenly heard the ground sound of "rumbling" breaking ground, so they stopped their bodies and looked at the scene in front of them, with a look of surprise on their faces.
The two quickly turned their heads to look behind them, and found that Mu Chen's figure had disappeared, but there was an inexplicably more strange-looking green tree where he was standing.
"Could it be that the tree was changed by him?" Bian Yao stared at the green tree, surprised.
"This should be a trap with both offense and defense! It seems to be one of the six forms of the Wood Clan, and only by destroying that green tree can you get out of the trap!" said Twilight Song with a heavy face.
As he said, what Mu Chen exhibited was the third of the six styles of the Mu Clan, the Soul Control Technique, which had both offensive and defensive powers! It was only listed as a "semi-forbidden" style, and it was generally strictly forbidden to use it in the territory of Mu County, because this formation would cause those trees that were manipulated to cut off their roots and veins, exhaust the energy of the spirit wood, and eventually die.
In just a few breaths, those ancient trees twenty or thirty zhang high are like huge tree men with tacit understanding, waving branches of different thicknesses and lengths. As for the vines on the ground, they cling to the trees, and they are not in a hurry, like green snakes.
Bian Yao naturally knew in his heart that Mu Chen's purpose was to trap the two of them, and if they waited for a few teachers to arrive, the two of them would completely lose hope of escaping!
However, if they want to get out of the siege of thousands of trees and vines, no matter how flexible and fast the two of them are, it will never be possible!
"I'm going to break the formation!" Twilight Song flashed as she swept towards the green tree not far away.
Bian Yao didn't hesitate at all, and very tacitly summoned the dream clone, and the main body and the clone took the initiative to fight with those moving trees, in order to alleviate the pressure of Twilight Song's breaking formation.
To say that the distance of more than ten zhang is not too far, with the extreme speed of Twilight Song, if there is no obstruction, three or two breaths can reach the green tree.
However, those active trees and vines were already under the control of wood dust, and how could they let him easily break through to him.
I saw those "tree people" move up like crazy, and countless branches and green vines wrapped around the tree were like long whips swinging desperately, trying to stop the extremely aggressive and dangerous figure.
In this situation of life and death, Twilight Song naturally has no reservations, he exerts his cultivation to the extreme, and between the flickering and moving of his body, the sword light sways like electricity!
For a moment, the branches and green vines that had been cut off by the blade fell to the ground like rain, and in the blink of an eye, Twilight Song had already rushed to a place only three zhang away from the green tree.
Finding that it was impossible to stop Twilight Song from advancing in a short period of time, the thousands of branches and green vines were densely intertwined, weaving an impermeable web wall around the green trees!
At the moment when the net wall was about to take shape, Twilight Song suddenly spun up, and the sword in his hand quickly stirred forward, and the entire sword body bloomed with a layer of dazzling white light, which was extremely sharp!
In the middle of a breath, the net wall made of branches and vines was cut into a hole with a diameter of a foot.
Twilight Song passed through the hole, turned over and rolled forward after landing on the ground, ignoring the thick branches and hard vines chasing from behind, raised his arm and stabbed a sword into the green tree, and immediately pulled it out, quickly slashing dozens of sword marks on the tree!
After withstanding such an attack, the green tree trembled suddenly, and then collapsed and disappeared, leaving a dejected figure in its place.
Mu Chen knelt on the ground and gasped for breath, holding the wooden knife in one hand and tightly protecting his chest with the other, as if blood was slowly spilling from his fingers.
Ten zhang away, the branches and vines that had been entangled in Twilight Song suddenly loosened weakly, and hundreds of trees and vines of different sizes around them withered and aged at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the green leaves withered and withered in an instant, and soon all died.
Mu Chen's tired eyes showed a touch of ruthlessness, ignoring the injury on his chest, he suddenly clenched the wooden knife, and in a half-crouching position, he got up and swung forward to slash.
Twilight Song flashed backwards, and with a slashing motion, she slashed the wooden knife.
At this time, a figure quietly appeared behind Mu Chen, raised his palm and slashed at the back of his head.
Mu Chen snorted and fainted to the ground.
From the moment Mu Chen launched the "Soul Splitting Soul Control Technique" until he fell to the ground, the period was only twenty or thirty breaths, and the clothes of Bian Yao and Twilight Qingge had already appeared dozens of tears, but fortunately, their bodies were not seriously harmed.
In fact, being able to break through this formation in a short period of time is mainly because Mu Chen's cultivation is limited, and he can only barely use this formation with his current realm, and the purpose of the control array is also to be trapped, and the true power and horror of the "Soul Splitting Soul Control Technique" are not reflected.
Bian Yao glanced at Mu Chen, who was lying at his feet, and asked, "Do you want to take him with you?" ”
"No, carrying him will only be a nuisance, and it will affect the speed of the journey. Twilight wrapped her sword in her head, not paying any more attention to the wood dust.
After all, Mu Chen's identity is extraordinary, and even the teachers are far from being able to compare, plus his relationship with Mu Wanyan, so the two did not kill him after he was injured.
Bian Yao squatted down to investigate Mu Chen's condition a little, and then the two of them rested in place for a short while, and then set off quickly and continued to embark on the road of escape.
