Chapter 13: The Dryad
The girl was shocked, her face turned blue, and her voice trembled a little, "Thank you brother for saving your life." ”
"You're welcome. Ye Yan frowned and said, "You are also a student of the Dimen Academy, why did you come to such a deep place in the Demon Sea alone, this is very dangerous, do you know?"
The girl seemed absent-minded and didn't pay attention to listening to Ye Yan's words, her eyes looked around, and she suddenly pointed forward: "There, Song Hai is there." ”
Ye Yan looked in the direction the girl was pointing, and saw a man fighting hard with a sawtooth wolf, and the man was already covered in blood and was at a disadvantage. Ye Yan immediately hurried over, grabbed the tail of the sawtooth wolf from behind and threw it out fiercely, and then followed a set of armor-piercing thirty-six consecutive palms to hit the sawtooth wolf, when the thirty-sixth palm was struck, the earth was shaken out of a deep pit by the powerful palm force, and the sawtooth wolf had already lost his breath.
The man named Song Hai was stunned, and was stunned for a while before he trotted to Ye Yan's side and said, "Thank you for this brother, if it weren't for your ......" He suddenly choked up in the middle of his words, and he saw Ye Yan's face, "You...... Aren't you the super newcomer who killed the butcher with one punch a few days ago? Xiaolan, come and see. ”
The girl also came over and took a closer look at Ye Yan, then covered her mouth and made a frightened look, "It's really him, no wonder he looks so familiar." ”
Ye Yan scratched the back of his head that was not itchy, he didn't expect that he had just entered the academy and was already so famous.
"Hello, my name is Song Hai, her name is Zhu Xiaolan, they are all students on the first floor of Xuanhe Tower, we worship you very much, your punch that day was too powerful, we saw our blood boiling. Song Hai was so excited that his face was red.
"yes, you know, your punch relieved a lot of people who were usually bullied by butchers. Zhu Xiaolan's face flushed slightly.
"Yes? You've really won the prize, in fact, the butcher is rampant here, and there is no one in his eyes, even if I don't do it, someone will clean him up sooner or later. Ye Yan felt a full sense of accomplishment in his heart, he was born humbly, but he rarely had the opportunity to be praised like this, and it was really a very good thing to become stronger.
"However, how could you two enter such a deep place where the demons are still so deep?" Ye Yan saw that the strength of these two people was almost between the fifth and seventh stages of the human rank, and it was still too reluctant to enter the place where the seventh-level spirit beasts were running all over the ground.
The two of them glanced at each other and sighed softly, Song Hai spoke: "It's not because the beast core of a low-level spirit beast is too worthless, collecting the beast core of fifty cat-eared bats is worth the beast core of a seventh-level sawtooth wolf, which is time-consuming and laborious, Xiaolan and I will think of going to a deeper place to try our luck, if there is a seventh-level sawtooth wolf, the two of us are responsible for containing and the other is responsible for killing, it is still no problem, who knows that two sawtooth wolves will come at once." ”
"I see. Ye Yan nodded, "Otherwise, since we are fated to meet here, we are friends, why don't we hunt spirit beasts together, how about dividing the beast core and animal skin equally?"
"Yes, yes. Song Hai and Zhu Xiaolan nodded again and again, and agreed without thinking about it, it turned out that the strength of the two of them alone could not act in the area infested by seventh-level spirit beasts, and with someone as strong as Ye Yan to join, there would be no problem.
The three of them walked together and searched the area again. But the strange thing is that I don't know if it was because Ye Yan showed too strong strength just now to scare away the nearby spirit beasts, or for what reason, after looking for a long time, the spirit beasts didn't appear. Song Hai had just been wounded in a fight with the sawtooth wolf and had left a lot of blood, and at this time he felt tired all over, so he sat down on a wooden stake.
"You two don't go too far, I'll rest here first. Song Hai found that Ye Yan and Xiaolan were getting closer and closer to him unconsciously, and they chatted happily.
Ye Yan was telling Xiaolan about his younger brother Lin Xi's encounter with the sawtooth wolf, and also showed the scar on his chest to Xiaolan, Xiaolan listened attentively, and the two chatted so much that they completely forgot the existence of Song Hai.
"Another serrated wolf. A sawtooth wolf jumped out, and Xiaolan immediately hid behind Ye Yan.
Ye Yan immediately went up to fight with the sawtooth wolf, and easily solved it in three or two, Xiaolan clapped her hands happily, and Ye Yan was also very proud. This so-called "cooperative hunt" has become one person responsible for clapping and encouragement, and one person responsible for hunting. The two of them had been fighting three more sawtooth wolves, and the beast cores had been collected almost completely, and Ye Yan also began to feel a little tired, so he walked back.
At this time, they remembered that they also had a little friend named Song Hai.
"What about Song Hairen?" The two returned to the place where Song Hai was resting just now, Song Hai had disappeared, and the stump where he had sat left a pool of blood.
"It's broken. Ye Yan thought to himself, Song Hai must have met the spirit beast alone, and with his current physical condition, he would definitely not be able to deal with a seventh- or eighth-level spirit beast. Ye Yan slapped his head hard, why didn't he expect that Song Hai's body was bleeding, and the blood could easily attract some hungry bloodthirsty spirit beasts? Not only that, but the smell of blood would even attract some high-level spirit beasts that would not normally appear in this area.
"You see, there's a trail of blood on the ground. Xiaolan pointed to a trail of blood that started from the stump and stretched into the distance.
It must have been left by Song Hai, and the two immediately chased after the bloodstain, and after a while, they found Song Hai, who was entangled in a tree by vines, his face was pale, and he had lost consciousness.
"It's over!" Ye Yan secretly screamed, the worst he thought in his heart still happened, it was a tenth-level spirit beast tree demon who tied up Song Hai, and the smell of blood really attracted high-level spirit beasts. With this level of spirit beast, Ye Yan was not sure to deal with it, not to mention that Song Hai was still tied to the tree demon, otherwise Ye Yan could completely use the fluctuating palm to repel the tree demon and then escape. ”
At this time, Xiaolan didn't hide behind Ye Yan like she had just met the sawtooth wolf, she pulled out the long sword in her waist and made a fighting posture, she knew in her heart that now this spirit beast Ye Yan was afraid that she couldn't deal with it alone, and she had to help.
"Xiaolan, you quickly ride my Bad Pill and rush back to the academy to exchange the beast core for some Rejuvenation Pills, and if you can, by the way, call some people to come over and help. ”
"No, how can I back down when my friend is in trouble. Xiaolan shook her head firmly, "Don't look at me as a girl, I'm also a spirit master, I can also fight." ”
Seeing Xiaolan's serious expression, Ye Yan smiled, touched her head and said, "Xiaolan, listen to me, that tree demon is absorbing Song Hai's energy, you have to go back quickly and get some Rejuvenation Pill, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold it for a long time, Rejuvenation Pill can play a good role in first aid." Besides, a tenth-level spirit beast is not enough for me Ye Yan to deal with at all. ”
On the one hand, Ye Yan did this because Song Hai was in urgent need of the Rejuvenation Pill to save his life, and on the other hand, when facing a level 10 spirit beast, he couldn't take care of Xiaolan's safety, and it was the wisest choice to let her leave first.
Seeing Ye Yan's confident look, Xiaolan was also encouraged, nodded, and immediately jumped on the Bad Pill and rushed to the academy.
The dryad was about two years tall, with a devilish face on the stem, and countless branches waving like devil's hands.
Ye Yan adjusted his breathing, calmed down, and released the latent spirit pitch black fang.
Unlike the sawtooth wolf, dealing with this tenth-level spirit beast is not something that can be solved in a short period of time, it must be a long-term struggle. In the grappling, it is when his latent spirit comes into play, the primordial spirit technique of the pitch black fang can plunder the opponent's spiritual power in the battle, in a grappling, Ye Yan will only get stronger and stronger, and the opponent will become weaker and weaker.
"The first style of spiritual method, gnawing. ”
The dryad is now greedily absorbing Song Hai's energy, Ye Yan took the lead in attacking from the left side, so as not to accidentally injure Song Hai who was tied to the right side, the dryad immediately waved all the branches towards Ye Yan, the branches are like the hands of the dryad, fragile and easy, but after they are broken, they will be reborn immediately.
"Thirty-six consecutive commanders. Ye Yan quickly slapped his palm, bang, and all the branches were broken. The dryad's ability to regenerate is really amazing, and as soon as the broken branches hit the ground, new ones have grown again. But Ye Yan didn't do useless work, and the tree branch focused all his attention on Ye Yan and stopped absorbing Song Hai.
This also meant that Ye Yan couldn't stop attacking, and once the dryad was given a chance to breathe, it would continue to absorb Song Hai. After one set of consecutive palms, Ye Yan took a step forward and continued to play the second set of consecutive palms, breaking all the branches that the dryad had just reborn. The characteristics of the military attack are that one palm is stronger than the other, and the spiritual power consumption is constantly superimposed, and Ye Yan's spiritual power can basically be consumed after one set, but due to the effect of the original spiritual method of the Pitch Black Fang, Ye Yan is supplemented with additional spiritual power, so that Ye Yan can unconsciously play a second set.
When the thirty-sixth palm struck out, Ye Yan was so tired that he almost collapsed, but despite this, he didn't really hurt the dryad, he didn't completely deal with these damn endless branches, and attacked the dryad's body, no matter how much he hit, it was useless. This is a battle of mutual attrition, and the dryad's continuous rebirth of branches must also require a lot of spiritual power, so it will be seen who can't hold it first in the end.
Ye Yan gritted his teeth, and a series of palm blows continued to strike, and the tree demon waved the branches wildly, originally it was reasonable that the basic spiritual power of a tenth-level spirit beast must be higher than that of Ye Yan of the ninth rank of the human level, but fortunately, Ye Yan's latent spirit continued to absorb the spiritual power of the tree demon and turned it into Ye Yan's use, and it was hard to pull this high-low duel into a draw. In the end, Ye Yan's lips turned white, and when he was about to fall, the dryad finally could no longer drive the spiritual power to give birth to branches.
The matchup is still a draw.
