Chapter 45: The Price
Xue Daoyou, poor Dao doubts...... It is very likely that Liu Daoyou and Ma Daoyou have already met with accidents......"
When Tong Baili successfully joined Xue Daoyou and others, and followed the original path to pursue Xia Fan again.
Pity.
They have been tracking each other for a long time, but nothing has been found.
In addition, Liu Zhengfeng and Ma Xiulin's voice transmission jade note did not react for a long time.
This made the hearts of the group sink to the bottom.
The sky darkened.
Tong Baili and they have all stopped tracking.
They tracked down not only Xia Fan, but also the whereabouts of Liu Zhengfeng and Ma Xiulin.
Looking at the vast and endless Damang Mountain in the distance, Tong Baili's face was cloudy, and finally gritted his teeth and said the worries in everyone's hearts.
"Tong Daoyou, are you sure that person really used the secret method of burning Shouyuan?"
Xue Mingshan, who was born in the White Cloud Sect, said with a solemn expression.
"Of course, otherwise, how can the other party reverse the situation in one fell swoop, forcing us and the others to flee in embarrassment. ”
said.
Tong Baili also deliberately took out his magic weapon, the Seven Star Pagoda and the golden scissors, to show it.
"With your eyesight, it should not be difficult to see the quality of these two magic weapons, among them, this Huangjiao scissors is still the natal magic weapon of the poor Dao, but look at the degree of their damage, you should know the power of a martial saint who burns longevity......"
“......”
Seeing this, Xue Mingshan and the others couldn't help but fall silent.
Although everyone present did not have the experience of going head-to-head with the Martial Saint of Burning Shouyuan.
But that doesn't mean they don't know how terrifying the Martial Saint who burns Shouyuan is.
The strength of the monk lies in his supernatural powers and magic weapons.
If they fight against martial artists of the same realm, the monks can often rely on supernatural powers and magic weapons to restrict or even kill the opponent.
If the supernatural powers and magic weapons don't work.
How can a monk be an opponent of a warrior?
Monks can fly in the air.
Warriors can shrink the ground into inches.
What's more, the martial artist is physically strong, and the monks of the same realm are far inferior to the martial artist in terms of durability, and they are slightly inferior to the warrior in terms of escape.
Think of Xia Fan.
He had just stepped into the realm of the Martial Saint.
As a result, Xue Mingshan and the others were left behind.
That is, Tong Baili, who cultivated to a higher realm, could barely bite Xia Fan, and in the end, if it weren't for Liu Zhengfeng's desperate weakness and his instantaneous supernatural powers, he took Tong Baili and Ma Xiulin to teleport in front of Xia Fan to successfully intercept it, otherwise Tong Baili and the others would not be able to catch up with Xia Fan at all.
Pity.
None of them expected that Xia Fan would burn Shouyuan and fight for his life without warning.
After all, whether it is a monk or a martial artist, anyone who has reached their realm has already officially embarked on the immortal path of immortality, and no one will choose such an extreme way to cut off the immortal path unless it is a last resort.
The older the so-called rivers and lakes, the less courage they have.
A person with a lifespan of tens of thousands of years only lives a few thousand years or even less, not to mention that there is a bright future in the future.
Would such a person be willing to fight for his life?
Maybe.
But this must be the case if the other party knows that he has fallen into a certain situation of death.
People are lucky.
If Tong Baili was placed in Xia Fan's position before, he had to admit that he couldn't burn his longevity so decisively like Xia Fan.
As long as he is alive, even if he faces the siege at that time, he may try to escape, even if he can't escape, it will not be too late to burn Shouyuan desperately at that time.
But Xia Fan is different.
Regardless of your three-seven-twenty-one, when you see that the situation is not good, you will directly burn Shouyuan.
Neurotic!
Could it be that the people of the Nether, or the people of other realms, are so extreme?
"Tong Daoyou, have you ever seen the Martial Saint who burned Shouyuan, is it still possible to survive?"
Xue Mingshan was silent for a moment.
"If you live, you may be able to survive, but those who survive will inevitably be like wasters. ”
Tong Baili took a deep breath and said.
"After all, once a martial artist burns Shouyuan, the qi and blood that he is proud of will produce a huge deficit, and at the same time, the meridians and acupoints will shrink, break and collapse, just like we blew up the golden pill by ourselves......"
"Poor Road is just a little weird. ”
Xue Mingshan frowned.
"Strange?"
Tong Baili wondered.
"According to Tong Daoyou's description, the other party's move to burn Shouyuan's qi and blood was too sudden and decisive, so ...... Poor Dao was very suspicious that the other party had any means to make up for this deficiency, so he dared to recklessly burn his longevity qi and blood to fight for his life. ”
Xue Mingshan directly said his guess.
“...... Xue Daoyou's guess does make some sense. ”
Tong Baili's face became even more gloomy when he heard this.
Yes.
What if the other party really has a way to make up for the burning of longevity qi and blood?
Everyone knows the seriousness of letting the tiger go back to the mountain.
But.
"Xue Daoyou don't have to worry, according to our tracking results, it is very likely that the other party has escaped into the territory of the demons of Damang Mountain, and although he is from other realms, he is also a human monk, according to the style of the demons, even if we let him go, it is impossible for the demons in Damang Mountain to let him go!"
Tong Baili calmed down and said.
“...... Alas, even so, it was just that the poor road was worried about another thing. ”
Xue Mingshan shook his head and sighed lightly.
"Now that Liu Daoyou and Ma Daoyou may encounter accidents, how should we explain to Chongxu Mountain and Xuanhuo Temple when the time comes!"
“......”
Tong Baili fell silent when he heard this.
Although the deaths of Liu Zhengfeng and Matthew Lin are not directly related to them.
After all, it was Xia Fan who killed people.
The problem is that it's not that simple.
At that time, it will be difficult to ensure that Chong Xushan and Xuanhuo Guan will take advantage of this to seek the benefits of the lower realm that have already been distributed to each other, and may even direct part of the responsibility to Tong Baili.
Who made him the leader of the operation.
He is not responsible, who is responsible?
If Chong Xushan and Xuanhuo Guan know.
When Xia Fan burned Shouyuan to fight for their lives, Tong Baili was the first person to abandon Liu Zhengfeng and Matthew Lin and flee without resisting, and Tong Baili was bound to take the blame.
Calculate the time.
Rescuers from both cases are almost there.
Tong Baili had to think carefully about how to give a perfect explanation next.
However, each other is a thousand-year-old fox.
There are some things that are hard to hide.
Xue Daoyou and the others didn't say.
It's just that they don't have any losses, and there is no need to have a disagreement with Tong Baili in this regard.
But the Chongxu Mountain and the Xuanhuo View of the dead people are absolutely impossible to give up.
Meanwhile.
The people of Cangyuan Sect still did not leave in the col where the Gate of Roots had been lost.
"Senior Brother Qiu, something happened. ”
Senior Brother Wan on the side suddenly looked solemnly towards Qiu Zhenlin.
"What's wrong?"
Qiu Zhenlin frowned.
"Liu Zhengfeng of Chongxu Mountain and Ma Xiulin of Xuanhuo View are very likely to have suffered accidents. ”
Senior Brother Wan deliberately concealed the message.
"They're dead?"
Qiu Zhenlin showed that he still looked as usual, but his heart suddenly swelled.
"Yes, according to the news from over there, Tong Baili, Liu Zhengfeng, and Ma Xiulin successfully intercepted that person near Damang Mountain, but they didn't expect the other party to reverse the situation by burning Shouyuan in an extreme way, which led to an unexpected ...... between Liu Zhengfeng and Ma Xiulin."
Senior Brother Wan explained succinctly.
"That man burned his own longevity?"
Qiu Zhenlin's focus is obviously somewhat different.
Liu Zhengfeng and Matthew died when they died.
It doesn't have anything to do with them anyway.
But Xia Fan is different.
On the one hand, the other party killed many nether disciples of the sect, and on the other hand, it was out of the strange admonition of the ancestor.
Now I heard about Xia Fan's crazy act of burning Shouyuan.
Even Qiu Zhenlin was shocked.
Because he also knew very well that the martial artist's act of burning Shouyuan was tantamount to asking for his own death.
For a moment he wondered if he had misheard.
"Yes, it is said that the top-grade magic weapon Seven Star Pagoda and the natal magic weapon Huang Jiao Scissors held by Tong Baili were broken by the other party. ”
Senior Brother Wan said in a deep voice.
“...... Perhaps, there are some things that I need to verify from my ancestors. ”
Qiu Zhenlin was silent for a long time.
Moment.
He took out the sound transmission jade talisman and at the same time cut off the space around him, staring at the sound transmission jade talisman in his hand with a hesitant face, and finally, he seemed to have mustered up great courage to send a contact to his master.
I didn't think that he had just sent a contact.
The voice of the master rang out over there.
It was as if the master had already expected it.
"Zhenlin, something interesting must have happened over there. ”
The cold voice of the ancestor on the opposite side sounded.
"Returning to the Ancestral ......"
Followed by.
Qiu Zhenlin naturally told the other party everything about Xia Fan in every detail.
"He's not going to die. ”
After listening to it, the clinker ancestor gave such an answer.
"I also ask the disciple to take the liberty of asking, how does the master judge that he will not die, after all, ......"
Qiu Zhenlin said nervously.
"Because something similar happened in the Nether before. ”
The other side said indifferently.
"About him, you can ask the other Nether disciples a lot in the future. ”
After speaking.
The ancestor disconnected the contact.
“......”
Qiu Zhen Lin was stunned in place for a while, until the voice of Senior Brother Wan sounded in his ears, and he gradually came back to his senses.
"Senior brother, did the ancestor say anything over there?"
"Senior brother, this side is temporarily handed over to you to be responsible, senior brother may need to go back to the sect. ”
Qiu Zhenlin seemed to have made some decision, and immediately acted resolutely.
"But the sect master's side is not ...... explanation"
Senior Brother Wan said worriedly.
"Don't worry, when you go back, the senior brother of the sect will naturally explain everything to the sect master. ”
The words fell.
Qiu Zhenlin rose into the air, and disappeared in the direction of Cangyuan Sect in the blink of an eye.
......
"No, no, no, my brother can't hold it anymore. ”
At this time.
Xia Fan, who didn't know how long he had been on the run, finally stopped in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers.
It's nothing more than that the Shouyuan he burned has reached a dangerous threshold.
Xia Fan, who had experience in this area, immediately braked decisively.
When Shouyuan stopped burning, the sequelae of the after-effects exploded.
And Xia Fan was lying on the huge river pebbles on the edge of a waterfall like a dead corpse, and the meridians and skin on his body were constantly agitated and bursting, and in an instant, he turned into a terrifying bloody man.
But soon the mist from the waterfall continued to wash his body.
But the blood flowing from Xia Fan's body seemed to show no signs of stopping.
No matter how long the water mist has been flushed.
Xia Fan was still covered in blood.
The most painful thing is that Xia Fan's consciousness is very clear.
So he could clearly feel the sharp pain in his body as if it were a thousand cuts.
It's not that he can't move.
It's that I don't want to move.
The more you move, the more painful it is.
After all, this time is different from the last time.
The last time Xia Fan burned Shouyuan, his consciousness fell into a coma and fell into a deep sleep.
Wait until you wake up.
The pain is long gone.
But this time, Xia Fan, who strictly controlled Shouyuan's burning, naturally would not pass out like he was unprepared last time.
Everything comes at a price.
Burning Shouyuan gave Xia Fan strength.
Then he will naturally have to suffer the consequences of burning Shouyuan.
Even if the golden finger can make up for the defects of burning Shouyuan, the physical pain caused by burning Shouyuan is not the same.
After all, this is not the business scope of Goldfinger.
"Is it going to end?"
The night passed.
Xia Fan kept his eyes wide open, looking at the sky above him.
And the physical pain began to slowly lessen.
Feeling the freshness of the mist on his face, Xia Fan felt like he had been reborn.
"I didn't expect to see a human martial artist here who was about to run out of life. ”
Suddenly.
A deep voice sounded in Xia Fan's ears.
"Who?!"
The first time.
Xia Fan hurriedly got up regardless of the pain in his body, and the whole person followed the prestige as if he was facing a great enemy.
And then.
His eyelids jumped.
Because he saw a giant.
A giant who is at least seven or eight meters tall.
The other party was dressed like an ordinary human, with a rough face and a beard.
In front of him.
Xia Fan first felt an extremely strong sense of oppression and insignificance.
"Which sect are you a doll from, don't you know that Damang Mountain is the realm of the demon clan?"
The other party calmly looked down at Xia Fan on the pebbles by the waterfall, and said without a trace of emotion in his tone.
"Damang Mountain is the realm of the demon clan?"
Xia Fan was stunned when he heard this.
New to the city.
He really didn't know any of that.
In other words.
He is now in the so-called Great Mang Mountain.
That is, the territory of the demon clan?
"So you really don't know. ”
The giant seemed to see through Xia Fan at a glance that he didn't seem to be faking, and his face was still as usual.
"Dare to ask you who you are......"
Xia Fan looked up at the Giant Dao with a serious expression.
"You're from the Nether?"
The clinker giant suddenly asked without answering.
“...... Be. ”
Xia Fan, who was a little confused about the situation, said truthfully.
"No wonder you ended up in the field you are now. ”
The giant shook his head, and turned away without making a sound.
"Now that you're dying, if you want to live a little longer, you'd better stay here and not move around. ”
After speaking.
Xia Fan watched as the giant's figure gradually faded and disappeared.
"What's going on?"
All the way.
Xia Fan was a little confused.
But judging by all kinds of clues.
Since the other party said that this is the territory of the demon clan, it means that the giant just now is likely to be the same demon clan.
Otherwise, would a normal human being be able to grow so tall?
Although Xia Fan has the ability to inflate his body to a certain extent.
But he couldn't swell to such a height like the other party.
And he could see it.
This giant was originally this height.
Counterpart.
Who the hell is it?
Or what kind of demon is it?
