Chapter 135: Death Trail
"Big brother, this kid is very arrogant, let me teach him a lesson. The adventurer who was stopped looked at Xiao Chen's back coldly.
The slender swordsman whispered, "Don't make trouble, this person is not simple. ”
"Big brother, it's just a stinky kid......" The adventurer was obviously unconvinced.
"What do you know?" the slender swordsman was also a little angry, and roared, "Do you see a person who walks in the Valley of the Tempest without anything on his body......?
While the group of adventurers were arguing, Xiao Chen had already continued to move forward.
It didn't take long for many roads to appear in front of me.
Legend has it that the Valley of Tempest was created by an earthquake thousands of years ago, and that many mountain peaks collapsed after the earthquake to form such a valley.
In the valley, the more you go in, the more complex the terrain becomes, and all kinds of strong winds blow all year round, making the valley "full of holes", forming many outlets, and the road is also divided into many lines, like a maze.
And this is the real entrance to the Valley known as the Tempest Valley.
The outside ones are only the outermost part of the Tempest Valley, basically there is no risk value, only by entering from here, can you really enter the valley and get many valuable natural treasures, correspondingly, the degree of danger is not comparable.
Xiao Chen looked at the map he got from the Ansla City Adventurers' Guild, and it mentioned that there were twenty-three roads into the valley here.
These roads vary in degree of danger, some are relatively easy, and some are almost equal to "dead ends".
The best way to go is to count the seventh and last one on the left.
But in fact, Xiao Chen found that many of the roads marked on the map had collapsed, and the continuous wind all year round made the terrain of the valley change almost slightly every moment, and if it was a month or two, the valley might change again.
The map of the Adventurer's Guild is obviously not updated so quickly.
Therefore, this map can only be used as a reference, and if you follow it, you are likely to enter a "dead end".
When Xiao Chen looked at the map, the group of adventurers also came here, they stopped a hundred meters away from Xiao Chen, and did not rush to choose a road into the valley, but sat together to rest and discuss.
Xiao Chen looked at it for a while, then put away the map, chose a path at random, and walked inside.
When Xiao Chen walked towards that road, the faces of the group of adventurers changed.
"Haha, that guy, chose that path!" The adventurer who was very dissatisfied with Xiao Chen just now laughed gloatingly.
"He actually took that "death trail"!" The other adventurers also looked in amazement.
"This won't be the first time he's been to Tempest Hollow, take that death trail, only a novice can take that path. Some of the adventurers shook their heads slightly.
The slender swordsman who had invited Xiao Chen just now watched Xiao Chen walk into the "Death Path", his face was indifferent, and he didn't do anything to stop it, although he was stopping his companions from provoking, but he also didn't have a good impression of Xiao Chen's arrogance, so naturally he wouldn't have much to do.
"Leave him alone, Cole, tell me that way!"
The road Xiao Chen took was the middle one.
This road is very easy to walk, the road surface is broad and smooth, Xiao Chen walked very fast, and walked seven or eight kilometers in an instant.
Going a little deeper, the terrain gets steeper.
On both sides of the road, hundreds of meters high on the slopes, there are many holes on it, and the strong blue-brown wind currents roll in these holes, forming a violent roar, like the cry of ten thousand ghosts, even in broad daylight, it makes people creepy.
On the road, many stones, large and small, were scattered.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's eyes froze, and he saw that under a boulder the size of a house on the side of the road, two human legs were exposed.
He walked over, his face changed slightly, the two human legs, the skin and flesh were still a little shiny, in this strong wind environment, the speed at which a person was dried after death was extremely fast, and from these subtleties Xiao Chen could identify that this person had not been dead for a long time, that is, in the last few days.
This man was crushed to death by the big stone of this house, and died a very miserable death.
Maybe he still has a companion, but he is pressed under this stone of at least tens of thousands of catties, and his companion doesn't want to collect his body.
Xiao Chen glanced at it a few times and continued to walk forward, and in his ears, a wind suddenly rose, and Xiao Chen looked up.
"Whew!" a car [***] stone was blown by the wind and fell from the sky.
Xiao Chen hurriedly urged the mana, stretched out his hand and pushed it upward, and a cyan tornado surged out from the palm of his hand, hitting the big stone and shaking it aside. The stone of the car [***] smashed into the ground, revealing a large crater half a meter deep.
Xiao Chen's spiritual power radiated, and he didn't feel that there were people hiding on the mountains on both sides.
This stone must have been blown down from the mountain by a strong wind.
The unlucky guy who died under the big boulder of the house just now was obviously killed by this "flying stone".
Xiao Chen took a deep breath, became vigilant, and continued to walk forward, as can be seen from the countless stones scattered on the ground, it is obviously a road where "flying stones" are rampant, hundreds of thousands of pounds of stones Xiao Chen is not afraid, but if he is really hit by a stone the size of that kind of house, Xiao Chen is sure that he and that unlucky guy will have the same fate, so his spiritual power spreads out, and the whole person flies up.
This valley road is getting narrower and narrower, and the mountains on both sides are becoming steeper and taller, and the wind roars, and the blue-brown winds swirl in countless caves, rushing out, forming a soaring wind dragon.
Correspondingly, the chance of "flying stones" falling in the sky has also been greatly enhanced.
There are also more and more corpses crushed under the stones on the side of the road.
Whew, whew!
Flying stones were constantly falling from the sky, the small ones were the size of fists, and the big ones were two or three meters in diameter.
Xiao Chen dodged lightly in the valley road, the smaller ones directly blasted away with magic, and the larger ones relied on their bodies to dodge, but as the valley road became narrower and narrower, the flying stones became more and more dense.
Patches, patches of stones fell from the sky.
Xiao Chen continuously cast a violent wind magic, smashing those stones, and at the same time, the speed was also raised to the limit, shuttling in the "stone rain" like a phantom.
"Master, it's not good to go on like this. De Nox also came out: "Otherwise, let's go back and pass the other way." ”
"What to retreat, this is exciting!"
Xiao Chen laughed, rose to the sky, kicked on a falling boulder, and his body passed through the gaps of seven or eight stones like a rocket, and at the same time, two huge tornado snakes formed in his hands, crashing away from several oncoming stones.
All kinds of dexterous postures were used by him.
A white light floated in Xiao Chen's eyes, the mana vortex in his body was spinning wildly, and his strength was unreserved, in the face of these unpredictable "stone rains", Xiao Chen was like fighting against a peerless master, and he needed to guard against attacks from any direction.
It is necessary to find the possibility from the impossible and break through from the attack of the heaven and earth.
And just like that, I ran a few kilometers more.
Ahead, a "first-line sky" canyon suddenly appeared!
The so-called "first-line sky" is that there is only one extremely narrow sheep intestine path, and there are steep and straight cliffs on both sides.
"A glimmer of heaven, it turned out to be a glimmer of sky!" Xiao Chen stopped suddenly, and his expression couldn't help but change.
A glimmer of heaven is nothing, but in this kind of situation of flying stones, entering a glimmer of heaven is tantamount to looking for death. The small path is so narrow that in some places, even people have to turn sideways to pass, and the flying stones fall down, and the space for dodging becomes extremely small.
Moreover, in the first line of the sky, the wind is particularly fierce, which invisibly restricts people's action.
"Master, retreat, you must retreat. De Nox couldn't help but yell.
Xiao Chen stood there, staring silently at the sky.
He stood quietly, and a bright light suddenly burst into his deep and quiet eyes, shooting towards a ray of heaven like lightning.
"Damn it. I knew it was going to happen!" De Nox closed his eyes and groaned.
How could he not know the choice of this "madman" master!
Shout!
Xiao Chen's figure flashed into the "first line of sky" without hesitation, this sheep intestine path, or it can't be called a road at all, on the ground, countless stones have long been piled up, ups and downs, Xiao Chen, must pass through this narrow and rugged road.
The cliffs on both sides are steep, even sloping towards the road, and it looks as if the whole cliff is about to fall down at any moment.
The furious wind flow was surging in this narrow canyon, and the cyan wind element almost condensed into substance, and as soon as Xiao Chen entered it, he felt as if his limbs had fallen into a pool of water, full of obscure blocking power.
"What a strong wind!" Xiao Chen turned the mana vortex to the limit.
When the wind in the outside world is strong to a certain extent, even the wind mage can no longer borrow the power of heaven and earth, which is "too much", just like if the fire mage can exert extremely strong combat power in the geothermal cave, he can fall into the molten and be melted.
Now in this sheep intestine path, the incomparably violent wind element is beyond Xiao Chen's control.
He could no longer use the wind as he pleased, but was affected by the violent wind that affected his speed.
The speed dropped by three percent sharply, and this was the result of Xiao Chen's efforts to offset the impact. After descending thirty percent, Xiao Chen's speed was still very fast, he flashed into the sheep intestine path, running wildly on the undulating road, boom!
The cliffs on both sides shook from time to time, and immediately after, countless large and small stones fell from the sky.
If you really enter the first line of heaven, you will know the horror of "stone rain", the valley road is too narrow, and the space for dodging is minimal, Xiao Chen has to do more than just dodge, but also try to push away the small stone to make room for him to dodge the big stone.
And the most troublesome thing for him was the wind! The strong winds not only affected his speed, but also made the trajectory of the stones more and more elusive.
At any time, the stone will be blown by the wind and hit the rocks on both sides, changing its original trajectory.
This made Xiao Chen's dodge even more difficult.
His brain was frantically calculating, the white light in his eyes was almost substantial, and at this time, in the gray sea in his mind, the white soul was also emitting a scorching light.
Hit out with both hands in succession, knocking off some small stones.
Xiao Chen relied on these cracks to pass through with difficulty, Rao is like this, there are still some stones that are difficult to dodge.
He directly propped up the protective shield and resisted the impact of the stones.
Running out of hundreds of meters, Xiao Chen was careless, and was finally hit by a stone of hundreds of catties, the protective shield was directly cracked, and Xiao Chen was also smashed back a few steps.
"This won't work!"
Xiao Chen reached out with both hands, and there were two more weapons in his hands, the left hand was the Eye Stone Wand, and the right hand was the Shadow Sword!
He ran towards the front again, boom! With the blessing of the eye stone wand, the magic power launched by Xiao Chen increased greatly, directly shattering a stone of hundreds of catties, and at the same time, Xiao Chen's right wrist flicked, and the shadow sword drew a subtle and mysterious arc trajectory.
All the stones that were struck by the Phantom Sword were shaken away.
Left-handed magic, right-handed swordsmanship!
Xiao Chen was finally forced to use a mixture of the two combat skills for the first time.
Sure enough, as soon as he mixed it, his strength increased sharply and his pressure decreased greatly.
It's just that this kind of use, after all, is the first time, Xiao Chen is still very jerky, sometimes, because of the bombardment of magic, the sword skills will deviate, or because of too much focus on the sword, the magic will deviate, resulting in some stones still hitting Xiao Chen's body from time to time.
"One heart and two purposes, left and right!" Xiao Chen's heart resounded with the ancient martial arts that had been circulating on the earth.
In the past, he was in the cultivation realm, and he also dabbled in a wide range of things.
He has a deep attainment in martial arts and swordsmanship, and Xiao Chen is constantly dodging and attacking...... Gradually, his mistakes began to decrease, and his magic and sword were able to accurately hit the flying stones.
There were fewer and fewer stones hitting Xiao Chen.
"Genius!
De Nox trembled, looking at Xiao Chen's left-hand magic and right-hand swordsmanship battle in shock, no one has ever been able to fight like this, even if it is the so-called demonic and martial arts double cultivation in this world, it is just that he has two different combat skills, and when he really fights, he can only use the magic and then use the sword, or the sword skills are used up, and then release the magic, it is impossible to use that kind of combat skill at the same time like Xiao Chen.
Denox was once again shocked by Xiao Chen.
"I know that the master is getting stronger and stronger, with unlimited potential, and I don't know how many hole cards there are!"
De Knox muttered.
Since he met Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen has shown the same ability to subvert the rules of this world, which has made De Knox deeply impressed.
Xiao Chen was immersed in the realm of "left and right", this method of attacking with his left and right hands separately was also his temporary idea, but he didn't expect the effect to be so amazing.
While constantly firing his bow left and right, and attacking, Xiao Chen even felt that his spirit was slowly splitting, as if two of them were fighting at the same time.
Strength...... Double!
This is a newly opened door, Xiao Chen is frantically exploring.
At this time, he is no longer bothered by the flying stones outside, he has been immersed in the "battle comprehension", and these flying stones will be the best catalyst for his comprehension.
Excitement, intense excitement.
"Sure enough, only in desperate adversity can you quickly tap your potential and improve yourself!" "If he is timid because of the danger of the sky, how can he comprehend the skill of fighting left and right.
Xiao Chen's left hand was bombarded with magic non-stop, and his right hand conjured up pieces of sword shadows like lightning.
Shuttling through the stone rain, he "fought" heartily.
"Come on, come on a little harder!" Xiao Chen suddenly roared.
The violent sound waves rushed out, blown by the wind, and formed a rumbling echo on the narrow sheep's intestine path, and the cliffs on both sides were constantly resonating, rumbling and trembling, like an "avalanche", countless gravel fell from the sky, several times denser than just now.
"Master, you're crazy again!" Denox didn't want to care about Xiao Chen's madness at all.
If just now the stones were "drizzling", now it is a "downpour".
Xiao Chen went crazy.
The speed of his left and right hand attacks suddenly increased several times.
Attack, attack, attack...... Fusion, convergence, convergence...... Under such a rain of stones, Xiao Chen was almost squeezing the limit of every point of his own, he was like a spring, constantly stretching, stretching, he no longer knew how many magic waves he had bombarded with his left hand, and how many swords he had split out with his right hand.
Hundreds of magic, or thousands of swords!
I don't know, and I don't count.
Of course, there were also countless stones that fell on him.
The magic shield on his body barely paused, it remained in a state of sharp flickering, and every time it went out, Xiao Chen would quickly replenish a shield on his body.
Anyone who sees such a scene will probably be directly frightened.
There are so many stones all over the world that people are afraid that they will be buried alive in an instant as soon as they enter.
But Xiao Chen was stubborn, opening up a new road on this "desperate road", every time it looked as if he was about to be submerged by stones, but he could always rush out at the most critical time, and still struggled to move forward in the stones.
I don't know how long it took.
De Nox shouted, "Master, it's over!"
Xiao Chen saw that in front of him, thousands of meters away, there was an exit, and this sheep intestine trail was finally about to be walked out by him.
"Rushed!"
He jerked his footsteps, picking up speed, his hands waving like phantoms.
For a long time, the dense left and right hands opened the bow, his hands were almost like a conditioned reflex, there was no slightest jerky, the magic in his left hand, the sword in his right hand, and the attack came out like a flowing cloud.
The stones were constantly shattered and knocked away.
Xiao Chen ran wildly towards the exit.
It was almost over, and when he rushed to a place 100 meters away from the valley mouth, suddenly the tremor of the mountain cliff became extremely terrifying, and the amplitude on the ground shook, like an earthquake.
"No, master, that mountain is going to collapse!" Denox yelled.
There is a cliff at the mouth of the valley, with a protruding peak, which is constantly cracking in the tremors.
Boom! Boom!
Countless stones as small as a millstone and as big as a house fell from the sky!
