Chapter 73 Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
"Young people have good understanding. The man exclaimed, "You three will definitely go to Mishima one day." When that time comes, remember to come to me. ”
"'Mishima'? what kind of place is that?" Zhuo Qing, who has always prided himself on being well-read and memorable, didn't know where this Mishima was.
Shen Huan and Tu Lie naturally didn't know.
"After you break through the Heavenly Steps, you will naturally have the opportunity to understand what kind of place the 'Three Islands' are. The man didn't explain, "I came to the Central Mountains because the kitten needs the special mist of the Central Mountains to evolve to the Heavenly Rank, and I will return soon." Remember, my name is Yi Zhen. ”
Leaving these words, Yi Zhen turned around and left, and gradually disappeared from the field of vision of the three of Shenhuan.
"What a strange man...... It's even more unimaginable...... "Looking at Yi Zhen's distant back, Zhuo Qing still touched his healed waist in disbelief......
After the soul of "Mishima ......" was further strengthened, Shenhuan's intuition became stronger. This elusive directness makes Shenhuan full of yearning for the name "Mishima", and Shenhuan vaguely feels that there, something must be calling him.
"Let's go, let's go get the corpses of those Heavenly Rank beasts now. Shen Huan is full of confidence now, and the task that was originally extremely difficult in their eyes is now a little more confident in Shen Huan's heart.
Although the level of Gang Qi has not improved, the advancement of the law of "going back in time" has increased Shen Huan's actual combat power by an unknown amount. Everything is just waiting to be verified by actual combat!
"Yes, yes, now that the strength of our Shenhuan Great Swordsman is beyond sight, it is naturally effortless to deal with a heaven-level beast. Zhuo Qing looked at Shenhuan's confident state, and couldn't help but ridicule.
Shen Huan smiled, looked at the map, and set out on the route to the boneyard. The yearning for that treasure and Shenhuan's self-confidence at this time made Shenhuan's pace much faster than usual.
"Hey, Shenhuan, you go slowly...... We are not like you, who can see through the fog, and we are still haunted by the fog. We won't be able to keep up if you go fast. Zhuo Qing struggled to capture Shenhuan's back in the thick fog, barely keeping up with Shenhuan.
But at this time, Zhuo Qing's heart was a completely different emotion: "Shenhuan...... The speed at which you are growing...... Maybe it won't be long before we can keep up with you, and we can only look up at your back......"
After trekking through the central mountain range for more than a month, the three of Shenhuan finally approached the bone-burying place, and at this time, the fog was so thick that the neighboring Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie couldn't see each other clearly......
"Shenhuan, you are not affected by this fog, can you tell me what the situation is ahead......" Zhuo Qing found that he couldn't even see the road under his feet clearly.
"Shh......h We're getting closer...... Use the methods I taught you to suppress your breath...... Don't alarm the Heavenly Rank Beasts. Shenhuan reminded.
This method of suppressing the breath, on the way here, Shenhuan had already taught Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie. This kind of skill from the Bloody Clothes Camp made Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie learn very hard. It took the two of them half a month to learn this kind of trick that Shenhuan had mastered in the first two days.
This technique is also practical, as long as it is not directly seen or too close, even the Heavenly Rank Beast with a keen sense of perception will not be able to detect the three Shenhuan who are already hiding around.
Under Shenhuan's whispered command, Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie followed Shenhuan and quietly hid behind a mountain rock. This happened to be the blind spot of the Heavenly Rank Beast's vision. But the three of them could see the heaven-level beast.
This Heavenly Rank Beast, the three of Shenhuan knew each other, and they had seen this kind of beast on the illustrated book before.
The lower body is the strong hind legs and sturdy body of the lizard, and the upper body is three hideous snake heads.
The three heads of the snake lizard each hold one of its powers, fire in the middle, wind in the left, and poison in the right. The three snake heads can perform different attacks separately, or they can combine to launch stronger attacks.
This kind of heaven-level beast has a balanced attack and defense, strong vitality, a small range of activity, and more importantly, the three snake lizards are extremely brutal by nature, and all other creatures within the range of their eyes will become their targets.
Now, the three snake lizards were pacing from side to side in front of the hole in the bone-burying ground, and the three heads looked in one direction from time to time, as if waiting for something.
Of course, all of this comes from Shenhuan's description, after all, Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie are almost half blind now......
"Now make a plan. Shen Huan lowered his voice, for fear of being discovered by the three snake lizards.
"Didn't you rush up and kill it alone, and we came up to collect the corpse?" Zhuo Qing did not forget to squeeze Shenhuan.
"This option can be considered. Shen Huan replied seriously.
Zhuo Qing was choked up in an instant and couldn't speak.
"The three snake lizards are strong, and they will be injured if they are not careful. Moreover, it is poisonous, and the poison is violent, and the ordinary detoxification pill we carry with us is estimated to have no effect. Any one of us who gets poisoned by it, even if it's just a fraction of it, will die in this central mountain range because we don't have time to seek a doctor. Shen Huan reminded the two.
said that it was to remind Zhuo Qing and the two, but it was just to remind Tu Lie that Zhuo Qing remembered these things more clearly than Shenhuan.
But Tu Lie hasn't been reminded of the consciousness yet: "Don't say so much, I can't remember what I said, just say what to do." ”
Although Tu Lie didn't deliberately raise his voice, his undisguised voice still startled Shenhuan and Zhuo Qing.
"You're going to die!" Zhuo Qing suppressed his voice, knocked on the door of Tu Lie's head with a folding fan, and rebuked Tu Lie fiercely, "Your voice will be discovered, idiot!"
Shen Huan quickly glanced back at the three snake lizards. Fortunately, the snake lizard was waiting for something intently and didn't notice the movement.
"Luckily, it didn't find it. Shen Huan breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems to be waiting for something, very focused." ”
"What ......are you waiting for?" Zhuo Qing lowered his head and pondered.
"What's wrong?" asked Shenhuan.
"Do you remember the record on the ancient map, which says that there has always been a heaven-level beast guarding here. What does it eat to keep it intact? You know, the three-headed snake lizard is not a good person who eats grass. ”
"What do you mean......"
"What it was waiting for was another three-headed snake lizard that brought it food, which is also in line with the ancient map that sometimes two wild beasts guarded here. ”
"Looking at its appearance, it is estimated that it is almost time to eat, and we will wait for it to eat before attacking. Shenhuan made a decision.
"Why wait for it to eat, won't it become a two-headed Heavenly Rank Beast?" Tu Lie finally learned to keep his voice low this time.
"You idiot!" Zhuo Qing's anger at Tu Lie did not subside, "During and after the meal, it is the moment when the vigilance of ordinary wild beasts is the lowest, and it is a hundred times better than doing it now!"
Shen Huan pulled out the Sword of Question, and this time, Shen Huan didn't plan to use the "Hidden Edge in the Shadow". "Hidden Blade in the Shadow" relied on the ** attack of Yu Jin, and it was enough to kill, but the three snake lizards with rough skin and thick flesh on the opposite side were obviously not enough.
"Wait a minute, I'll do it first, Zhuo Qing will support me to deal with those three snake heads, and Tu Lie will be responsible for attacking his body and hind legs. Shenhuan made the next arrangement.
"But...... I can't see anything......" Tu Lie said with some embarrassment.
"This ......" dense fog obscured the vision, this was indeed a big problem, and Shenhuan didn't know how to solve it for a while.
Suddenly, Shenhuan's face changed: "Something is coming...... Amazing speed! This momentum ...... It's a Heaven-Rank Beast!"
"There's another three-headed snake lizard that brings it food? Then we're going to get ready to get started." Zhuo Qing opened the folding fan as he spoke.
Although there was only a white mist in their sight, they would not let Shenhuan take the risk alone, and it would be a point if they could help.
"Something is wrong!" "Something is wrong!" Shen Huan's perception became clearer and clearer as the Heavenly Rank Beast approached, "This position, this speed...... It's definitely not a three-headed snake lizard, it's coming from the air!"
A moment later, a hurricane blew away all the fog around them, filling Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie's vision with color again from the white expanse. The three of them were almost blown out by this hurricane, and they finally grabbed the rock next to them to stabilize their figures.
Zhuo Qing and Tu Lie, who had finally regained their vision, didn't have time to see what the three snake lizards looked like, and their eyes were already fixed!
A huge cyan beast descended from the sky and pounced on the three snake lizards!
"Calamity Mantis!" Zhuo Qing recognized this terrifying beast at a glance!
The Calamity Mantis is extremely aggressive, and even among the Heavenly Rank Beasts, it is also the most fierce and belligerent in the ranks. The disaster mantis rarely attacks the weak except for predation. The Calamity Mantis usually picks all kinds of wild beasts of the same level and human powerhouses to challenge, and it never stops.
Each Calamity Mantis is a battle-hardened combat master, with combat experience far beyond that of ordinary beasts.
For example, the calamity mantis in front of the three of Shen Huan, the deep and shallow scars on its turquoise shell are enough to prove how many heavenly battles this calamity mantis has experienced, and the blood stains on the forelimbs of its pair of sharp scythes are so thick that they can't be dissolved, and it also proves how many heaven-level beasts or powerhouses it has killed.
The three snake lizards did not dare to be careless in the face of the disaster mantis, and while the disaster mantis had not yet pounced, the three huge snake heads were aimed at the disaster mantis at the same time, and the pillars of fire, wind, and venom shot quickly at the disaster mantis in the air.
With a flash of its huge body, the Disaster Mantis dodged three attacks, leaving behind an afterimage.
"What a speed!" This is the fastest beast that Shenhuan has ever seen! This kind of speed makes Shenhuan feel threatened now.
"Tsk, there will be a disaster mantis! Praying mantis catching cicadas...... Wrong, it's a praying mantis catching snakes, we can do a yellow finch once...... It's really a blessing......" Zhuo Qing was extremely surprised by the appearance of the disaster mantis, "Shenhuan, who do you think can win?"
"It's hard to say. ”
At this moment, the huge scythe forefoot of the Calamity Mantis had already slashed at the three snake lizards!
