Chapter 42 · net
In Shidu Township, shrouded in blood, fierce fights occur everywhere, and if you observe through the sky-turning mirror outside like a guide, you can know the cruelty of the heavenly measurements. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info countless young boys and girls, each for the quota of the three secret realms. Snatching by force, you are everywhere in life-and-death situations.
At this point, for ordinary cultivators, not to mention whether they have the ability to pass the test, and not having time to crush the Yan Fu Jade Bead and die on the spot can be regarded as strength and luck coexisting.
"Squeak...... Boom ......"
A huge thorn slammed into the ground with its thick vines, splashing a large amount of gray-black silt with a foul stench, and the road, which was originally very hard, instantly opened several cracks in black holes, trembling and raising dust in the sky.
The vine was like a wriggling python, the thickness of an adult's thigh, the skin was as rough and wrinkled as the face of a ninety old woman, the black scarlet was scarlet, and the sharp thorns were densely arranged on the vine, and the human hair stood on end.
In the misty dust, I could barely see a black-haired boy rolling under the vine in embarrassment, and he was able to avoid this ferocious blow, and then immediately turned over and pounced forward, escaping from the attack range of the thorn vine like lightning.
Yi Qi glanced back with palpitations, and involuntarily took a few steps away.
The thorns he had just crossed were too big, and compared to the thorns he had fought before, this thorn was at least twice as big. A single vine is so powerful, and if he fights head-on, there is no doubt that he will only be reduced to fodder for this thorn. The only thing to be thankful for is that the thorn has not yet grown into the middle of the road, and it only has one vine to reach the land, otherwise it would have really sealed him.
Thinking of the process of walking here, Yi Kui couldn't help frowning and sighing deeply.
His luck was really not flattering, and not only did he not find his way back, but he was forced more and more towards the center of the swamp by the intermittent path.
This is not the first time I have seen this huge thorn, I have seen it several times on the way here, but this time I happened to bump into such a close one.
The deeper you go, the more powerful the thorns in the pool are to be underestimated.
What's even more disturbing is that as we go deeper in this Shidu Township, for some reason, the sweet smell of corruption that has never dissipated becomes stronger. This was by no means an illusion on his part, and now he could already feel that his hands and feet were extremely stiff, and his dodge dexterity had dropped dramatically.
Yi Xiao kept his face calm, pressed the irritability in his heart, and continued to move forward while thinking.
No matter how steep the road ahead is, you can only move forward hard, otherwise you will hesitate in this place where you can't find the village and the back store, and sooner or later you will be trapped in the swamp, and then there will be no other way than to crush the jade beads and give up the heavenly test.
The land under your feet is probably often boiling and freezing under the strange temperature changes in Shidu Township, so the soil is mostly loose and pitted, and there is no place to settle down. If ordinary people walk on this kind of ground, they may be planted headlong into the swamp if they are not careful. The temperature around you is also very high, and if you walk barefoot on the ground for a long time, you may get a string of blisters on the soles of your feet. The rustle of thorn vines, the rolling of swamps, and the rotten sweetness of the nose all make the mood even more somber.
There are more thorns in the pond in front, looking at it from a distance, countless trees are born next to each other, vines are entangled, layer upon layer, covering the sky and the sun, making people feel like they are in a blood-red sea of thorns.
The more he moved forward, a question that he hadn't paid much attention to gradually surfaced and lingered in Yi Xiao's heart.
Why do these thorns get stronger and more and more as you move towards the center?
It stands to reason that according to the characteristics of the thorns in the pond to suck flesh and split, the area near the periphery should be the most luxuriant. Whether it is an outside cultivator or a beast that has broken in by mistake, it should be the most casualties on the periphery, and it also provides a lot of blood food to the thorn bushes, and in this environment, the thorns on the periphery should be the most lush. Even if it was because there were many cultivators on the periphery who surrounded and suppressed the thorns to obtain the red roots, there should not be a situation where there were more thorns the more inward.
Could it be that the deeper he goes, the fewer cultivators who have the strength to come here to kill the thorns, so he provides a greater growth environment for the thorns in the pool? Yi Xiao carefully looked at the surrounding environment while secretly pondering in his heart.
But why are the deep thorns more powerful and can give birth to more red roots, and how did this environment come about?
I always feel that it doesn't make sense, is there something he is missing?
Yi Xiao pressed his forehead and pressed his temples, and his mental fatigue made it impossible for him to keep his mind clear. If he can't figure it out, he can only stop thinking about it, no matter how treacherous this swamp is, as long as he hurries up and finds his way back.
......
Half an hour later, Yi Xiao stared at the scene in front of him for a long time, and suddenly gasped.
The "plants" in front of me can no longer be described as "clusters", the thick and tall thorns of the pond are pulled up from the boiling swamp silt, like giant trees soaring into the sky, and the vines are almost entangled into a piece, gathering on the top of the head, and turning into a blood-red cover, as if growing out of the dark night.
Thick rattan strands crisscrossed the air, weaving one blood-colored web after another. The bucket-thick vines seemed to have been soaked in the blood basin for years, revealing a dark ochre red, and the same blood-red slurry could be clearly seen from under the translucent epidermis from under some of the newer branches at the ends.
This whole area is like the intertwined blood vessels in the body of some kind of giant beast, exposed to the scorching air, which is extremely strange and shocking.
The rich smell of rot was even sweeter and disgusting, and all parts of the limbs were rusted to death, and there was a creaking sound between the joints, making any movement more difficult.
Under the shroud of blood light, only the wind that rose out of nowhere was surging underneath, bringing a fierce killing machine, scraping through the skin, cold to the bones for a few inches, and I couldn't help but shiver in such a hot environment.
And the only solid path under his feet stretched into the mighty web of blood.
Yi Xiao subconsciously took a step back, and his intuition told him that he couldn't move forward, but there was no way back to Taniguchi behind him, and if he didn't go forward, he had to give up the heavenly test.
As long as he doesn't alarm any vines, although the thorns in front of him are dense, but there is no direct way in the way, as long as he finds a fork in the road in front of him, he can't give up, and finally collected all the red roots, how can he stop here!
Yi Kui took a step forward with difficulty, and walked forward with a hard head, and his figure gradually disappeared into this terrifying blood nest under the cover of the melting night, as if he had sent himself into the scarlet jaw of the monster without hesitation......
After a while, Yi Kui tensed his nerves and walked cautiously on this life-threatening road, and finally found a branch road with great joy, from this branch road, although the direction did not go back, but at least it did not lead straight to the center of this thorn forest. As long as there is a deviated route, it is a good thing, not to mention that the solidity of this branch road is not weaker than the original path.
After checking with the astrolabe, he had not yet left this giant thorn area, but the direction of this branch road was towards the edge of this swamp, and Yi Kui finally loosened the string in his heart and walked on the branch road without hesitation.
It didn't take long for Yi Kui to notice something unusual.
The thorns in the swamp beside him seemed to be a little restless, and when he looked up, he saw the vines slowly swimming and intertwining in the air, and the clattering of branches made a soft sound. There was a faint roar on the road ahead, and although it was not really audible, it looked like someone was fighting ahead.
Yi Qi's expression was solemn, and he lowered his body and leaned forward more carefully.
After walking a few steps, as soon as he turned a bend in the path, he saw three figures fighting fiercely dozens of feet away, and two men in brown suits were frantically besieging a girl in white.
The girl's strength is indeed very strong, and at this time, the pace is still light, shuttling between the two enemies, it seems that it is still an equal situation, although it is a vitality master, but it is not inferior to the martial arts master in terms of body law. Five blades as thin as cicada's wings swirled rapidly around her body, and the smooth blades reflected a little bit of crystalline light, occasionally reflecting her light and agile figure.
The two people on the opposite side are martial artists, and the place where they are fighting is full of dirt and dust, and they can't see who they are for the time being, but they only know that one person holds an axe and the other holds a stick, and they cooperate quite tacitly.
They pressed on the girl in white step by step, biting and not letting go.
The frost-blue ice blade was used by the girl perfectly, and the mind was out of the body, and the Immortal Yuan and the Ice Blade were perfectly fused, and then manipulated by the powerful mind of the Yuan Qi Master. She opened a distance of five or six feet between her two enemies, and with a finger of her hand, an ice blade around her suddenly disappeared, turning into an unpredictable streamer that leapt in front of the enemy, slashing away without warning, or slashing at the enemy, steadily intercepting any ferocious attack.
The girl fought and retreated, her black hair and her clothes were stained with blue frost, and the frost flowers bloomed under her feet, and a thin layer of ice condensed under her feet and clung to the ground, and soon turned into water and steam in the air due to the hot temperature of the swamp.
In the steaming water, the girls are dancing and flying, if the shadow appears, if it is not under this tense fierce battle, it must be a pleasing scene.
Yi Qi silently observed by the bend, and when he saw the two people fighting with the girl in white, his expression became a little solemn.
These two martial artists are obviously not participants in the Heavenly Test, the two are dressed in the same clothes, both are dressed in brown power suits, and they are both around thirty or forty years old, judging from their tacit understanding, they are obviously long-term partners. Under the influence of the rotten sweet aroma, Yi Kui couldn't even move himself when he came here, but the three people fighting in front of him seemed to have enough energy to spare, even if he wanted to help the girl now, with his current strength, he wouldn't be able to plug the teeth between the two sides.
Looking up and looking around, he saw that the circumstances of their battle were also very delicate.
