Chapter Twenty-Nine: Misfortune
After about a stick of incense, the calm lake began to gradually drift on the waves, and gradually the waves became bigger and bigger.
"...... Uproar"
Suddenly, a huge water column ten meters high rushed up on the surface of the lake, and the water column fell, only to see a round purple giant shell with a size of at least four meters, appearing on the surface of the lake.
The purple scallop was covered with hideous barbs. The giant shell opens and closes with a camouflage light spot. Through the cracks in the shell, Lin Xiao saw that there was an extremely disgusting huge black lump of flesh in the shell.
There was also an ugly face that looked like a man and a fish on the top of the meat ball, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little disgusted when they saw that ugly and strange face.
"Dongxu ......"
Xue Yuxuan shouted, and at the same time as Dongxu, he shook the chain and caught the dazzling mother-of-pearl. Then the two of them erupted with all their strength and threw the other end of the chain to the shore, and the two guards of Murong Yu on the shore had been waiting for a long time, grabbed the chain and pulled it back.
Lin Xiao and the three of them also grabbed the chain and pulled it back.
The Glare Fritillary is one of the giants of the Glare Lake, and has few natural predators thanks to its ultra-hard shells. As soon as it came out of the water, it was suddenly caught by someone, and it suddenly made a strange 'squeak' sound, frantically inciting the huge shell, and suddenly the wind howled, and the huge waves on the lake were churning.
The crazy struggle of the dazzling mother made Xue Yuxuan and the two of them sway left and right. However, the two quickly returned to the shore along the iron lock, and joined the pulling procession.
With so many people exerting their strength on the shore, the dazzling mother couldn't resist at all, and was soon dragged to the shore. Seeing that it was out of the lake, it immediately closed the huge shell and rolled towards the lake.
Finally pulled the dazzling mother from the water to the shore, how could it be possible to give it another chance like water. Putting the chain on a giant tree on the shore, everyone immediately blocked the way of the mother-of-pearl, and then surrounded the dazzling mother-of-pearl group to attack.
The dazzling fritillary is an aquatic demon beast, and its strength in the water is comparable to that of a powerful warrior in the early stage of the Nine Layers of the Day After Tomorrow, but when it comes ashore, it is equal to a toothless tiger. can only rely on the hard giant shell and defend passively.
Lin Xiao didn't need to expose his strength at all, or even just used the swordsmanship he got back and forth when he raided the Li Mansion, although the power of this set of swordsmanship was weak, but he was cultivated to the consummation realm early, which was barely enough.
Half an hour passed.
The giant shell that was originally closed by the dazzling mother has loosened a little, and the momentum of the original rampage has weakened a lot. After such a long battle, everyone began to get tired. So he attacked more violently, wanting to end the battle as soon as possible.
"This fritillary can't hold it anymore, seize the opportunity to kill the flesh in the shell, and this fritillary will die!"
Seeing that the dazzling mother was gradually weakening, Xue Yuxuan shouted loudly, and he himself stared at the crack of the shell, intending to kill with one blow and show his strength in front of Shangguan Ning Xuan.
At this moment, suddenly a red round object flew behind everyone, and smashed it impartially on the dazzling mother-of-pearl Baker, blowing up a pungent red mist.
"Poisonous, retreat!"
Murong Yu shouted and retreated a few meters backwards, and everyone retreated at the same time.
Without waiting for everyone to react, a rickety figure burst out with lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he stabbed the originally wheezing fritillary to death, and then took the fritillary away with a flick of his hand.
"Thank you for your help, haha......"
The gaunt figure let out a dry laugh, then turned and fled without looking back. It was very decisive back and forth, and by the time everyone reacted, the rickety figure had already run out more than ten meters away.
"Dare to snatch something from us, look for death!"
Xue Yuxuan shouted angrily, and chased after him with an arrow step. Murong Yu and the others also had ugly faces, and they pursued them with all their might.
Obviously, this sneak attacker has developed a good skill of hiding his aura, and even Lin Xiao didn't even notice who came.
However, judging from this person's shot and figure, he should be an old martial artist who has not yet reached the ninth level of the day after tomorrow.
"Old thing, I'll see where you're going. Wind Thunder Step!"
Xue Yuxuan was furious, only to see that his body suddenly trembled, and his steps suddenly crackled, and his speed doubled under the momentum surge, and he instantly narrowed the distance from the old man who had fled away.
The rest of the people also used their secret skills one after another, and their speed skyrocketed to follow in pursuit.
"These people have all cultivated the body method, when did the body method become so worthless......
Lin Xiao was thrown to the end in one fell swoop. He could only rely on his own speed to compare the acquired ninefold, and he followed at the end, and he felt that even if he broke out with all his strength, he would not be much faster than these people.
Unexpectedly, these people used their body techniques, and the speed of the instant explosion was comparable to that of the Nine Martial Artists of the Day After Tomorrow, especially the speed of Xue Yuxuan's three of them was almost faster than that of the early martial artists of the Nine Folds of the Day After Tomorrow, which made Lin Xiao very speechless, he had not learned any body techniques.
The exercises of the body method are rare exercises, and usually the martial arts forces have the heart method and the combat method, but not every martial arts force has the body method exercises. Because the body technique is not only helpful in battle, but also can save lives, it is very precious.
The speed of everyone who used their body skills skyrocketed, and then the martial artists who fled in front of them also increased their speed. Although people can't lose it when they chase and flee, they can never intercept it.
As the chase deepened, the trees gradually became scarce, and some broken eaves began to appear around, and they became more and more dense. After a while, the grass beneath his feet turned to bricks and stones.
Far from the end, Lin Xiao looked at the silhouette in the black mist in the distance, and felt a little bad. The Black Mist Mountains haven't heard of many man-made structures. This is a place where monsters gather, how could anyone ever live here.
"Why did that man bring us here?"
Just when Lin Xiao was questioning in his heart, everyone in front of him stopped. Lin Xiao's heart moved slightly, and he didn't approach immediately, but hid in the distance, using his internal force to his eyes and ears, and carefully observed everyone.
Everyone blocked the man under a boulder wall in an arc, Lin Xiao looked at it, and the man was really a thin and withered old man, only to see him standing a little stiffly next to the stone wall.
"You little guys are so bold that you dare to chase here!"
The old man chuckled from his throat and glanced at the few people unscrupulously. The cloudy gaze looked at the few people a little uncomfortable.
Xue Yuxuan glanced at the remnants around him, frowned and asked, "Old thing, what kind of place is this." ”
Even if no one was in his sights, he sensed that something was wrong. Shangguan Ning Xuan and Murong Yu slowly retreated backwards, while the guards beside them stood in front of them.
The old man grinned and said sadly, "What kind of place is this? It's also a place to bury a few of you little ones!"
Having said that. His original clumsy figure suddenly 'clicked' and trembled, and his originally shriveled body was twisted and deformed like rattan. In the shocked gaze of everyone, the old man's body swelled into a tall hunchbacked giant.
I saw rows of spikes growing on his body, and his original humanoid face was also distorted and deformed, with many barbs, and it seemed that he could no longer be called a human.
