Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bibo Lake (I)
Because it is traversing through this dense forest, it is not only inconvenient for Edgeworth to fly, but it is also easy to expose itself when it encounters the noise caused by the branches.
Therefore, Li Qing took out the magic talisman that he hadn't used for a long time and pasted it on his legs, relying on his dexterous steps to move quickly in the woods.
And Li Qing chooses the place where each step falls is to choose a raised tree root, a stone or an area with fewer dead branches and leaves, so that the noise caused by running will be minimized.
In this way, Li Qing cautiously touched the direction where Bibo Lake was located.
Li Qing was not alone in this forest, during which Li Qing had seen disciples of other sects twice, but they were all noticed by Li Qing in advance and flashed to the side to hide their figures.
Coupled with the relationship between the breath charm and the flavor removal charm, Li Qing was not discovered by the two of them, and when they went away, Li Qing would run again.
Before falling into the forest, Li Qing roughly estimated the distance to Bibo Lake.
It's about 20 miles away.
If Edgeworth flew, Li Qing estimated that he would be able to reach the edge of Bibo Lake in less than a quarter of an hour.
But now he is running to Bibo Lake, although he has the blessing of the Divine Talisman, but the terrain in the forest is complicated, and there are layers of shade everywhere, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he may deviate from the original direction, and Li Qing has to avoid other monks along the way, so the speed of travel is not fast.
It took half an hour to reach the edge of Bibo Lake.
Behind a bush on the edge of the Bibo Lake, Li Qing leaned down and looked through the bushes at the sparkling surface of the Bibo Lake.
The whole lake is very calm, and only when the breeze blows, there are some ripples.
However, Li Qing did not immediately see the markers recorded on the map.
The symbol is a boulder standing on the shore with the words "Bibo Lake" engraved on it, and the back of these three words is the direction leading to the core area.
"Isn't Mo on the other side?" Li Qing's eyes first looked along the left and right banks, but there was no trace of the boulder.
So it was judged that the boulder was most likely on the other side of the lake.
So Li Qing planned to grope along the bank on the left side of Bibo Lake, of course, Li Qing was still cautious and did not directly expose his whereabouts, but walked behind the dense trees by the lake.
There are still no plans for Edgeworth to fly.
However, just as Li Qing walked forward a few hundred steps, a streamer flew over his head.
Li Qing subconsciously held the Liuyun Sword in his hand, and made defensive actions as soon as possible.
However, Li Qing just saw that it was a purple-clothed person who swept over his head, and before he could react, another streamer followed by another streamer that swept over Li Qing's head again, heading straight for the streamer just now.
Li Qing was shocked in his heart, and looked in the direction of the two streamers, and immediately saw a monk in red chasing a purple-clothed monk.
The Cardinal chased after him as he threw out the talisman to try to force the Purple Monk to stop.
"This is the Underworld Blood Hall and the Jade Spring Sect disciple!" Li Qing immediately recognized each other's identities when they saw the clothes of the two.
And it seemed that the Underworld Blood Hall monk was chasing, and the disciple of the Jade Spring Sect was running away.
But how long has it been since you entered the secret realm? In less than an hour, people were fighting each other, and Li Qing really didn't expect it.
And just when Li Qing guessed whether the two sides had a sectarian grudge or an intention to lead to this hunt.
A scream suddenly came from the blue lake in front of him, and Li Qing carried it over again, only to find that the Yuquan Sect disciple was hit in the left shoulder by a talisman thrown by the Immortal Blood Hall monk behind him, which immediately caused his body to lose his balance and fall headlong into the lake.
Li Qing saw that this Yuquan Sect disciple's reaction was not slow, and he immediately adjusted his posture in the air, stabilizing his body when he was about to fall into the water.
However, the Immortal Blood Hall monks, who were originally some distance away from him, took advantage of this opportunity to catch up, and raised his hand to slash out with a sword.
The blade of the sword was sharp and went straight to the neck of the disciple of the Yuquan Sect, and there was no intention of leaving his hand.
And the disciple of the Yuquan Sect was also taken aback when he saw the sword blade attacking, and he threw out seven or eight talismans in an instant with his hand in his arms.
Because it was a little far away, Li Qing couldn't immediately judge what talisman the other party used, but he could roughly judge through the appearance that there was a Vajra talisman here, a defensive talisman here, and an attack talisman of the Wind Blade talisman.
Anyway, Li Qing at least saw two light shields appear in front of the disciples of the Yuquan Sect, and a few wind blades went straight to the Immortal Blood Hall cultivators.
However, the Underworld Blood Hall cultivator was obviously not afraid of this level of attack, and after a few moves in the air, he easily avoided a few wind blades and continued to kill towards the disciples of the Yuquan Sect.
What's even more desperate is that in the face of the two light shields blocking in front of him, this Stygian Blood Hall monk did not choose the conventional method of breaking the light shield head-on, but directly turned over the light shield with a harrier and went directly to the front of the Yuquan Sect disciple, and then stabbed the neck of the Yuquan Sect disciple who was still in shock with a sword that was still undecided, and sealed his throat with a sword.
The sharp pain coming from his neck made the Yuquan Sect disciple subconsciously reach out to cover his neck, and at the same time open his mouth to say something.
However, the Immortal Blood Hall monk immediately drew his magic sword, and suddenly a stream of blood gushed out, and the disciples of the Yuquan Sect widened their eyes and desperately covered the neck wound, and a series of hoho sounds came out of their mouths.
Then his eyes quickly lost their brightness, and the whole person fell towards the lake like a kite with a broken string.
The Immortal Blood Temple monk quickly fell, grabbing the other's belt.
"It's so fast!" After Li Qing witnessed this battle that lasted less than twenty breaths, the movements of the Immortal Blood Hall cultivator were simply fast and ruthless, especially the indifference to life and death shocked Li Qing.
The few actions just now, especially the last one that turned over and crossed the light shield, were quite thrilling in real time, as long as that Jade Spring Sect disciple was not so panicked, he could take advantage of the other party's appearance directly above him to fight back.
You won't be able to kill them on the spot, but you can force them back and buy you valuable reaction time.
However......
Li Qing shook his head, this Yuquan Sect disciple had panicked from the beginning, otherwise he would not have turned around and fled when he encountered the Immortal Blood Hall cultivator again.
It doesn't matter if you run this run, you will immediately lose the opportunity. It was even more seen by the monks of the Underworld Blood Temple, which caused such a consequence.
As for how Li Qing judged this, it was because when the two of them passed over Li Qing's head just now, he didn't see any traces of a fight on the two of them.
Some of them were just the panic of that Yuquan Sect disciple, and it could even be said that they were panicked.
If you choose to face it head-on, although with the strength shown by the Immortal Blood Hall cultivator, that Jade Spring Sect disciple has little hope of defeating the other party, there is still a certain chance of surviving.
And not die here in vain like this.
"Not good! It's coming this way! Li Qing had just finished thinking about it, but he immediately noticed that the Immortal Blood Hall monk was carrying the corpse of the Yuquan Sect disciple back to the shore.
And it happens to be the shore where Li Qing is hiding.
