Chapter 90: The First Battle
Chapter 90
In fact, a month before entering the Lost Land, Xiao Zhan was also adjusting his state.
The few True Yuan Stones given by the old beggar's predecessors have all been absorbed by Xiao Zhan.
But despite this, feeling that the true element in his body was slowly eroding, Xiao Zhan still felt distressed.
It is foreseeable that the four heaven-level and Duan Peng of the Duan family, and even Duan Yanqing, who has just entered the holy level, have almost no chance of surviving.
Xiao Zhan's pace was very slow, and as he walked, he felt the change in the thick fog.
The deeper he went, the stronger he could feel the strange corrosive force in his body.
However, the vision is slowly getting better.
A few hours later, the originally thick white mist was completely unable to block Xiao Zhan's sight, as if it did not exist.
It's a strange thing.
Xiao Zhan didn't think about the mystery of this, and after feeling that the corrosive force in his body would not cause too much danger to himself for the time being, Xiao Zhan slowly accelerated his pace.
Surrounded by endless mountains, Xiao Zhan took out the map of the old beggar's predecessor, looked at it, and found that he had unconsciously deviated from the direction.
He hurriedly adjusted his direction and rushed towards Yanlong City.
Slowly, the surrounding scene began to change.
The color of the green mountains slowly became darker, and there were many more plants on the ground that Xiao Zhan had never seen before.
Not only that, Xiao Zhan also saw a red poisonous snake with three heads and two tails that was the thickness of a thumb.
Xiao Zhan stepped on it with his foot, and the scales on this little snake's body were actually extremely hard, and the ground-level masters might not be able to crush its body.
This also made Xiao Zhan more vigilant, after all, the old beggar said that there were many ancient creatures in the Lost Land that should have been extinct.
It would be a big joke if he capsized in the gutter.
And Xiao Zhan also noticed that the time inside seemed to be different from the outside.
Xiao Zhan obviously felt that he had been walking for more than ten hours, but the skyyang in the sky didn't seem to move much.
Suddenly, a lake appeared in front of Xiao Zhan's eyes, with an area of about ten acres, the lake water was clear, and the strange thing was that Xiao Zhan obviously felt a breeze blowing, but there was no ripple on the lake.
Xiao Zhan slowly approached the lake, his eyes looking towards the lake.
The water of the lake is crystal clear, and you can see the black aquatic plants at the bottom of the water and the messy rocks.
But the lake looked lifeless.
Xiao Zhan looked around, and his eyes suddenly locked on an area, where the weeds were four or five meters tall and looked like small trees.
Among the weeds, the shadow of a thatched-roof stone house looms.
Xiao Zhan slowly approached, pulled out the Red Dragon Knife and held it in his hand, and gently picked up the weeds several meters high.
The appearance of the small stone house finally came into view.
The thatched roof of the stone house is probably paved with weeds several meters high, and the walls are made of stone, which looks extremely simple.
Xiao Zhan lowered his pace and approached, and slowly came to the hut.
He looked underneath his feet, and could vaguely see a layer of stone slabs underneath the rotten weeds.
It can be seen that no one has lived here for a long time.
The hut has no door, so you can see the layout inside at a glance.
A bumpy stone table, a stone bench, and then nothing else.
Xiao Zhan raised his feet and walked in, looked his eyes up and down, and then stopped at the corner of the wall.
In the corner of the wall is a black Buddha statue.
This Buddha statue is a thousand-armed Guanyin, but the Buddha statue is holding various magic weapons in its hands, and its appearance is also a little fierce.
As soon as he saw the appearance of this Buddha statue, Xiao Zhan knew that this was something from the Yaqi Kingdom.
In other words, the owner of this thatched hut is very likely to be a strong man from the Yaqi country.
It's just that the strong man left here for unknown reasons.
Half a minute later, Xiao Zhan turned around and walked out of the hut.
But he hadn't taken a few steps before Xiao Zhan heard movement in front of him!
Something stirred up a splash in the lake!
Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up, and he immediately entered the battle state.
But after waiting for several minutes, there was no other movement.
Xiao Zhan quietly approached the lake, his gaze sweeping across the lake.
In Xiao Zhan's sight, an old man with a short stature and tattered clothes was sitting cross-legged on the lake.
His eyebrows were slightly closed, and a pinch of gray mustache was dripping.
Especially the momentum emanating from the other party's body, it is actually the same as Xiao Zhan, it is a gathering realm!
Xiao Zhan secretly said that he was unlucky, and he actually met a strong man as soon as he came in.
Looking at this person's face, Xiao Zhan guessed that this person should be the owner of the thatched hut, the strong man of the Baqi Kingdom.
He should have used a special way of practicing and kept hiding under the water.
Xiao Zhan didn't act rashly, just waited quietly.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhan thought of a possibility.
These weeds several meters high should have been planted by this person on purpose, just to disguise the existence of the thatched hut.
In other words, he was hiding here on purpose.
If it's not to avoid disaster, it's something good here.
Suddenly, the man moved.
He stood up from the surface of the lake and walked slowly towards it.
Xiao Zhan restrained his breath and looked at the other party coldly.
At the moment when the other party was about to enter the hut, Xiao Zhan moved.
The Red Dragon Knife slashed out!
The black sword light instantly cut off all the weeds and slashed at the opponent with a fierce attack.
Not only that, but eight willow leaf darts burst out at the same time, blocking all the opponent's dodge routes.
Almost at the moment when Xiao Zhan made a move, the face of this powerhouse of the Yaqi Kingdom changed greatly.
He kicked his right leg to the ground violently, and his body rose into the sky, and the soles of his feet rubbed the light of the knife to avoid it.
The sword light instantly slashed on the stone house.
I heard a 'click', and the stone house instantly split in two.
"Bold, who dares to sneak attack the old man!" The old man of the Yaqi Kingdom fell from mid-air, his gaze firmly locked on Xiao Zhan.
But in the next moment, eight willow leaf darts poured down from the top of his head.
The old man's face turned cold, and the true yuan of his whole body was instantly released, forming a violent gang wind, forming a shield around his body.
But what the old man didn't expect was that the eight darts actually penetrated Gangfeng straight and shot at the joints and death points of his whole body respectively.
Although he reacted quickly and avoided the fatal spot, his shoulders and arms were still pierced by darts.
The old man's eyes lit up, and he immediately realized that these eight darts were not mundane.
He stretched out his hand to grab the dart, but found that the dart had made a big bend and actually flew back towards Xiao Zhan, and after a few 'bangs', all of them were tightly attached to the Red Dragon Knife.
Looking at the Red Dragon Knife in Xiao Zhan's hand, the old man's eyes lit up, and his eyes were full of greed.
But the next moment, the old man sensed that something was wrong.
He looked at the blood holes on his shoulders and arms, which were actually charred brown, and the wounds seemed to be unable to close, and blood and true yuan immediately flowed out of the blood holes.
Xiao Zhan didn't expect that the Red Dragon Sword and the eight darts would have this effect.
The old man looked at Xiao Zhan coldly, looked at the clothes on Xiao Zhan's body, and snorted coldly:
"Newcomers who just came in, I'm not wrong?!"
"Is it from the Yanlong Kingdom, the Zhenrong Kingdom, or the Southern Coconut Kingdom?"
Xiao Zhan looked at the old man indifferently, and said expressionlessly:
"It doesn't matter where I'm from, what matters is that your good little life is coming to an end!"
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Zhan's whole body Zhenyuan exploded violently!
The red dragon knife slashed several times in a row, and the sword light intertwined into a large net, enveloping the old man overwhelmingly.
The eight willow leaf flying knives also turned into streamers, shooting at the old man of Yaqi Country at an extremely tricky angle.
"You're looking for death!"
The old man roared angrily, but instead of retreating, he slapped out a palm, and the sword light that rushed to his face was hard, and then slammed into Xiao Zhan's heart.
"Your weapons are good, the old man has taken a fancy to them!"
"Wait until it's solved! This baby is mine! ”
Xiao Zhan's face was cold, and there was no fear in his eyes.
The red dragon knife slashed out horizontally, but the old man grabbed it directly with his hand.
Xiao Zhan saw that the old man's hands were as black as ink, and they actually exuded a metallic luster.
"Sting!"
The red dragon knife slashed through the old man's palm, and countless sparks suddenly burst out.
Not only that, but there was also a large amount of blood gushing out.
The old man frowned, and hurriedly pulled back.
He looked at the unhealable wound in his palm, and his face became more and more difficult to see.
"What is the origin of your knife!"
Xiao Zhan chuckled, "Dead people, they are not qualified to ask questions!" ”
Saying that, Xiao Zhan took the initiative to attack, and with a flash of his figure, he turned into a phantom and disappeared.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhan burst out from the side, and the red dragon knife slashed at the old man's neck.
The old man was obviously not easy to mess with, and his True Yuan was extremely majestic, and he accelerated violently and rushed towards the lake.
Xiao Zhan followed closely and slashed again.
The sword light slashed on the surface of the lake, and suddenly a huge wave exploded!
The lake was split in an instant, the old man snorted coldly, and the whole person rushed to the bottom of the lake.
Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up, and he tapped the lake under his feet, and the whole person rose to the sky.
In mid-air, Xiao Zhan's body rotated rapidly, and dozens of slashes towards the surface of the lake in an instant.
For a while, the surface of the lake continued to explode, and the lake water was tumbling and splashing, as if it were boiling.
Xiao Zhan slowly landed on the surface of the lake, looking around vigilantly.
But the old man seemed to have disappeared, and he was not seen in the lake at all.
Xiao Zhan did not hesitate and immediately retreated to the shore.
Although he took the lead and injured the old man of the Yaqi country, he couldn't take risks until he couldn't figure out the old man's hole cards.
After all, he is not alone now, he still has a wife and daughter at home, and he needs to be more cautious in battle.
At the bottom of the lake, in a small space under a boulder.
The old man of Yaqi Province looked at the wound on his body, and a fierce touch flashed in his eyes.
He saw that Xiao Zhan was young, and he wanted to lead the other party to the bottom of the lake, and at that time, he would definitely be able to kill that kid.
But Xiao Zhan was more cautious than he imagined, and he didn't take risks easily at all.
The two of them were at a stalemate.
Xiao Zhan knew very well that even if the other party was also a master of the Qi Gathering Realm, the time spent underwater would not exceed two hours at most, as long as he waited patiently, the other party would definitely breathe on the surface of the water, and at that time, it would be the time for him to attack.
But the old man obviously wouldn't give Xiao Zhan this chance.
He slapped his palm, and a stone of hundreds of pounds rushed out of the lake.
Xiao Zhan subconsciously slashed.
The sword light sliced through the sky, splitting the stone in two in an instant.
The moment he saw the stone, Xiao Zhan knew that he had missed.
Sure enough, the old man took the opportunity to rush out of the lake.
When Xiao Zhan slashed out again, he was dodged by the old man.
After several attacks, the lake has dropped several meters, and the surroundings are wet.
The old man snorted coldly:
"You and I have no grievances, you dare to make a move on me, you really don't know the sky!"
"Since you're looking for death, then take me a move!"
As soon as the words fell, the true yuan of the old man's whole body gathered in the palm of his hand, and he slammed down towards the lake.
There was a loud bang.
The lake water surged, and under the squeeze of Zhenyuan, a wave tens of meters high was formed, overwhelmingly rushing towards Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan's face was expressionless, and he split out one by one, instantly splitting the wave into two.
The figure of the old man was revealed, and it turned out that he was hiding in the waves.
A touch of contempt flashed on the old man's face, and his incomparably hard fingers grabbed Xiao Zhan's heart fiercely.
Over the years, he has continued to temper his hands with various poisons, and his hands have long been extremely hard, and this time he will definitely be able to scratch Xiao Zhan's heart.
Seeing that his fingers were about to touch Xiao Zhan's heart, the corners of Xiao Zhan's mouth suddenly curled.
The old man's heart suddenly rose with a sense of crisis, and the hairs on his back stood on end.
Without waiting for him to pull back, a willow leaf flying knife suddenly penetrated the old man's abdomen from behind.
Xiao Zhan took the opportunity to retreat, intending to slowly consume the old man.
The old man covered his abdomen and roared angrily:
"What a cunning boy, you actually have the ninth throwing knife!"
Xiao Zhan said 'hehe', "Life and death struggle, if I didn't have a backhand, I would have died hundreds of times." ”
The wound on the old man's abdomen was charred brown, and his internal organs were also burned by the high temperature of the willow leaf darts, and blood gushed out.
No matter how the old man blocked it with True Yuan, he couldn't suppress the loss of blood and True Yuan.
In a moment, the old man's face became pale, and the momentum of the whole person became depressed.
Xiao Zhan was not in a hurry to give the old man the final blow.
As Xiao Zhan said just now, in a life-and-death battle, everyone will have a back hand.
Before the old man's back hand was revealed, Xiao Zhan would definitely not make a move easily.
