Chapter 52 · Sheng
The way back was so smooth, Yi Kui almost stepped on the corpses of thorn stumps all over the ground, from the thigh-thick thorn vine at the beginning to the small arm-sized branches not long ago, none of them were cut into pieces and paved on the road, becoming dry and shriveled, losing their tyranny and vitality.

It can be seen how strong Bai Qingjiu's combat power is, and it is really terrifying to kill all the way like this. The artist is bold, no wonder she dared to break into the forest of thorns alone for the sake of that rumor that I don't know how much truth there is.
It's like Yi Xiao, who was completely forced to be helpless, first being chased and killed by all kinds of panicked escape, and finally the back road was broken before he had to enter the Forest of Thorns to find another way out.
Returning along the path Bai Qingjiu came from, although the abnormal movement of the swamp has not disappeared, after walking so far, you can still faintly feel the occasional movement from the depths, and the ground under your feet also vibrates from time to time, which makes the uneasiness in your heart linger. The remaining thorns around the pond still look like teeth and claws, but they can't reach them, so there is no danger along the way.
But now the good fortune is just coming to an end.
The thorn was not located in the middle of the path, but in the frozen mud on the left side of the path.
But their branches were luxuriant, and their coverage was a foot away, so they shrouded their path under fierce attacks.
If the thorns were still asleep at the beginning, it was still possible to pass through this area without alarming it.
But now that there is nothing in front of me, and the thorns are still whipped wildly, it is a fool's dream to pass through here without much effort.
Yi Kui put Bai Qingjiu down and said, "Do you still have the strength to fight, if there is still the strength to fight, we will work together to clean up this thorn." ”
Bai Qingjiu had rested on Yi Qi's back for so long, and her complexion looked much better, but her body was very stiff, and it was very difficult to see her movements stiff. She nodded: "I refined some medicinal power just now, but I recovered a few points, and it is no problem to stimulate the Yuan Qi Technique." It's just that my body is almost unable to move, and the Imperial Law is very difficult, which has a great impact on the effect of the Yuan Qi Jue. I can only barely give it a try. ”
"It's okay, you try to help me create an opportunity to get closer to this thorn, and then I'll find a way to clean it up. Yi Xiao encouraged.
Bai Qingjiu thought for a while and said, "I remember this road." There was a bush not far behind the thorns, and then there was a fork in the road. The fork in the road led to two paths, one from which I came from and the other that I hadn't paid much attention to. There are still a lot of thorns in the way behind my coming road, I didn't care about them at the beginning, if we have to go back the same way, we will definitely not be able to break through the remaining strength. ”
When she first entered Shidu Township, she didn't pay attention to these thorns at all.
Because the probability of the peripheral thorns producing red roots is very low, she relied on the way of coming and going without a trace, and she didn't care at all, and she left the thorn vines all the way behind.
Who knew that it was by relying on the road she cleared earlier that they had come here, and the outer thorn bushes that she didn't care about at all at the beginning brought a bunch of trouble.
Thinking of this, Bai Qingjiu felt a pang of chagrin in his heart.
Yi Kui was also a little troubled when he heard her explain the situation, but he had always been firm-hearted, and only said in a deep voice: "Now we have no choice now, first kill the thorns in the pond in front of us, and then make plans when we reach the fork in the road you said." ”
When Bai Qingjiu saw him say this, he nodded yes.
She didn't say anything more, first raised a hand, swiped lightly in the void, and concentrated the Immortal Yuan to her fingertips, and the ink-colored magic jade on the back of her hand flowed. She did this very hard, fine beads of sweat appeared on her smooth forehead, and her expression was solemn and painful. Where she slashed, the air froze suddenly, the temperature plummeted, and in an instant, a thin blade of frosty blue ice gathered in front of her eyes.
Volleyed in the direction of the thorns, and the ice blade turned into a streamer and flew away.
The speed of the ice blade was extremely fast, and it was difficult to find the trace, but in a flash, it had already touched the first vine of the thorn of the crossing pool, and then quietly cut off.
At the same time, it was easy to move.
He didn't use the broadsword, but just fixed his gaze on the ice blade that came and went without a trace, and followed its trajectory almost exactly in the thorns.
Because his current body is also riddled with miasma erosion, and his mobility is slow, in order to keep up with the traces of the ice blade, he can only brutally infuse the underworld into his legs, using strength to make up for the sluggishness of movement, and using reaction force to increase speed, so every step is quite moving.
Dust is blowing everywhere, flying sand and rocks.
Yi Kui has no experience as a martial artist, and he has never learned martial arts, so his physical use of the underworld is simply unsightly. This kind of brutal practice of directly pouring the Immortal Yuan into the legs, without any skills and no foundation, not only wastes a lot of Immortal Element, but also causes great damage to the meridians.
But at this time, it is not his turn to be picky and hesitant, and when his strength is not enough, he always has to pay something to achieve his goal.
Yi Kui was well aware of the reasoning, and just as he was following Bai Qingjiu's Ice Blade from the left and right, he was already secretly holding a crystal clear ice pick in his hand at some point.
When Bai Qingjiu saw his fast figure that erupted at this moment, he was also amazed in his heart, and a burst of admiration rose.
With her eyesight, she could easily see that Yi Qi did not have the foundation of a martial artist, but it was unbelievable that she could control her strength so accurately after infusing her legs with the Immortal Yuan at a critical moment.
You must know that the human body has a memory, if a person suddenly has a huge amount of strength in his feet, then for a while he will definitely be unable to master the strength due to the habit of exerting force in the past, and then lose his balance and fall into a mouth full of mud. Not to mention that Yi Kui is so skillful at using sudden power to accelerate, even the most basic walking will seem difficult.
What's more, overfilling the meridians with the Immortal Yuan is definitely a very painful thing. Generally speaking, only before breaking through the realm would cultivators taste the pain of tearing the meridians and veins.
But Yi Xiao didn't seem to have this stage at all, and he was not affected by pain, where could he see the slightest clumsiness?
These are nothing more than shows that the young man in front of him has reached an astonishing level of grasp of strength and control of his body, and his reflexes and stress ability are very comparable, I really don't know how he did it.
But Bai Qingjiu himself is worthy of being the Yuan Qi Master of the Four Heavens, even if it falls to this point, there are only three percent of the Immortal Yuan left, and his strength cannot be underestimated.
In a few breaths, her ice blade slashed the angry thorn vines that surrounded Yi Kui.
Yi Xiao took the opportunity to dodge and invade the dense place of thorn vines, and the ice pick in his hand shot out.
Then the body twisted in mid-air, stepped on a vine with both feet, and the whole person bowed into an arc, and kicked on the vine with great force, like an arrow from the string shooting back.
From the left side of the thorn in the pool, the icicle exploded into a cloud of ice. The cold air rippled, and after the explosion, all the thorny rattans on the path were blown to pieces.
This time, Yi Kui learned the lesson of the past, the icicle was shot diagonally upward, and the explosion had little impact on the road, at least there would be no more explosions on the road.
Only the rightmost half of the vine remained, and some rotten branches hung dangling from the main stem, looking so desolate.
Now, no matter how angry the bush of thorns was, the remaining branches could not reach this side of the path.
Bai Qingjiu was also taken aback by the power of his icicle technique, and when he looked at him, he found that the returning Yi Qi was breathing quickly and heavily, his face was ugly and terrifying, and his slender fingers were shaking unconsciously.
Yi Kui was really sad at this time, his head was like a needle prick, his feet were even more painful, and every meridian on his legs was about to burst, so he could only secretly carry the spring recipe over and over again to relieve the pain a little. Fortunately, his Shenyuan is as warm as water, and it already has a healing effect, which has been taken into account for a long time, so he dares to mess around like this. Otherwise, if it was a fire walking element, his legs might be scrapped.
"Don't be reluctant, let's recover our strength and clean up the second plant......" Bai Qingjiu said with a little concern.
Yi Xiao didn't refuse, nodded and agreed.
Time was pressing, and the two of them rested on the spot for a while, then stood up and began to clear the second bush of thorns in the back.
......
Nearly an hour later, I finally saw the fork in the road that Bai Qingjiu said.
"The one on the left is where I came, and the one on the right I haven't been. Bai Qingjiu said.
There are two roads ahead, one left and one right, and since the left one doesn't work, then you must try the right one.
Yi Qiqiang cheered up, although he was exhausted, he still insisted and said, "I'll go and explore." With that, he walked to the path on the right.
Bai Qingjiu hurriedly grabbed his sleeve at this time: "Wait, where do you need to explore the way?
Only then did Yi Kui realize that this teenage girl was the Yuan Qi Master of the Four Heavens, and her mind was strong, and it was much safer and more convenient to observe the situation of the path with her heart than if she had personally ventured into danger?
Bai Qingjiu stared, and his cold thoughts spread forward as he skimmed Yi Xiao. Yi Kui felt a gentle fluctuation pass by, and secretly thought that her mind was as soft as hers.
After a while, the girl's face showed a slightly complicated and surprised expression, and said: "There are three bushes of thorns in front of this road, and if we go here, it will be a big trouble for us." However, I felt the presence of a dried corpse in the three thorns, and it was too small to be the bones of an adult. ”
Yi Kui was overjoyed when he heard this, and the appearance of a cultivator's corpse here meant that someone had been here in the place ahead. The corpse was thin and small, and eighty percent of it probably belonged to the participants of this day test. Since someone has walked here recently, there should be no more thorn bushes blocking the way after these three bushes cross the pond thorns!
Yi Xiao's pupils showed an excited light, and he said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that no matter what, we have broken through these three thorns." ”
。
(p.s. in context.,I don't know if you see where the two protagonists have gone?It should be quite obvious.。。 Right?
