Chapter 42: Discovering Movement
Cheng Xingyun looked at the umbrella blade, and Yuan Yue also noticed his gaze and explained: "This is the sword blade hidden in the umbrella handle, I don't know what it is made of, my mother said that it has good strength." ”
Cheng Xingyun couldn't help but nodded: "It's very sharp, this two-winged stoneworm is estimated to be equivalent to the strength of the third layer of the foundation, and its body is extremely hard, just like this, it was still penetrated by your umbrella blade, which shows that the material is not bad." ”
The two of them took a few breaths, regained some strength, and headed towards the two-winged stone pede. At this time, the two-winged stone beetle also regained some strength on the ground, and its eyes saw the two people coming, and quickly flapped its wings and wanted to escape, but now its body was injured internally, and its palatal teeth were also cut off, but it had no courage to continue attacking.
Cheng Xingyun and Yuan Yue wouldn't just let it go, who knew if it would come to take revenge, so they hurriedly stepped forward and started attacking. At this time, the stone worm was already injured, and it was no longer flexible to dodge, and it was soon pierced by an umbrella blade, and its wings were also cut off by the Qingling Xuanyuan Sword.
The two-winged stone beetle's body could no longer maintain its balance, and it fell to the ground, and the two of them instantly went up to make up for a few swords, and the green liquid flowing from the stone worm's body became more and more, and soon it did not move on the ground.
The two breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurried to recuperate their strength, but they were still on alert. After a period of time, after Cheng Xingyun and Yuan Yue adjusted, they continued to walk diagonally upward.
I was careful all the way, but fortunately I didn't encounter any stone worms in the back. The surrounding gray rocks also gradually turned light brown, it seems that they are about to reach the Xuanyan area, at this time, a gust of wind blows from the front, it feels slightly cool, this time the two are more careful, it is said that there are Xuanyan pythons here, so they can't be careful.
After advancing two miles, Cheng Xingyun and Yuan Yue suddenly heard the sound of objects being dragged on the ground with the sound of the wind. The two of them quickly stopped to listen, and the direction of the sound was in the area in front of the left that was blocked by a boulder.
The two hurriedly squatted down, glanced at each other, slowly climbed up the boulder, and looked forward to find that more than two hundred zhang in front of them, there was a slender thing crawling on the ground, about five or six zhang long, and its body was like a thick bucket. The two of them were shocked when they saw it, and hurriedly hid back behind the stone, their mouths opened and they wanted to say something, but they didn't dare to say anything, so they could only say a colloquial 'Xuanyan python', seeing each other's panicked looks, after a while, they couldn't resist their curiosity and raised their heads to look forward.
This time, they found that the head of the snake seemed to be holding something, but it was a stone worm, but it was more than twice as large as the one they had just encountered. At this time, the snake's head suddenly raised, and the two found that it seemed that the stone worm had more than one pair of wings, and when they had to look closely, they saw the stone worm fall to the ground, and the Xuanyan python seemed to be spitting out letters, and the two hurriedly hid their heads.
Cheng Xingyun and Yuan Yue were full of anxiety at this time, but they didn't dare to run away, so they had to lie motionless behind the stones, listening quietly to the movement ahead. There was nothing but the sound of the wind, and after a while, they heard the sound of an object being dragged, and the two of them looked panicked but heard the sound gradually disappearing, and after waiting for a while, they couldn't help but look up slightly, and found that a python tail three hundred zhang away in front of them gradually disappeared at the entrance of a hole.
The two of them waited for a moment to know that they couldn't hear the sound at all, so they hurriedly retreated, and retreated for nearly two miles before they gradually became a little more at ease, and the two talked softly: "It seems that this is the Xuanyan python, it seems to be dragging a stone worm, but I see that the stone worm seems to have more than two wings, Yue'er, do you see clearly?" ”
"Brother Nebula, I don't see it very clearly, but looking at its area, it should have four wings."
"That's right, it should have reached the level of a second-level fierce beast, which is equivalent to the cultivation of the Spirit Gathering Period, and this Xuanyan python feeds on it, so it seems that the cultivation is higher, it seems that the cave is the place where it devours, it seems that we can only go around."
"Well, fortunately, we were in the direction of the headwind just now, otherwise we should have been discovered by this Xuanyan python, the left side of the inner part is a mountain that is not easy to detour, it seems that we can only draw a circle from the right periphery."
Cheng Xingyun nodded, so the two lowered their steps, listened to the sounds around them, and gradually walked around. It's just that the two of them suddenly thought of a question, according to this wind direction, wouldn't they just wind their breath to the cave when they went around, and who knew what would happen at that time, they could only wait slowly in the distance for the wind direction to change.
At night, a full moon gradually rose, and when you stood on a high place, it seemed that the moon in this area was extremely bright, and then the wind finally began to change. Under the bright moonlight, the two slowly walked around, and finally got away from that area, and at this time they also felt a chill, fortunately, they had prepared a lot of cold-resistant clothes before leaving home, but they were going to enter the snow later, so the two put on snow-white jackets.
After advancing for another hour, there was finally a white snow slope in front of them, and there was still a tall coniferous forest growing in the snow slope here.
The snow slope is vast, flashing white under the bright moonlight, the eyesight is really not far, the cold wind is howling, and the snow slope does not dare to walk easily, and the tall coniferous forest in the distance does not dare to step easily.
The two are in a dilemma, where to go to search for the sword-winged snow leopard cub? There are many dangers inside, so let's go around the outer edge of the snow slope to see the situation first.
Cheng Xingyun and Yuan Yue carefully walked all the way along the edge of the snow slope, but they didn't see a snow leopard. At this time, the two of them were a little discouraged and sighed that this task was really not easy to do.
Suddenly, a wave of aura came, and it shook the tall taiga not far ahead, and this fluctuation seemed to be an attack wave overflowing from the aura during the fight.
The two of them felt their hearts pounding, with the fluctuation of this aura, it seemed that there were some high-level cultivators fighting nearby, this was not something that the two foundation building periods could mix.
Chen Xingyun and Yuan Yue glanced at each other and saw the intention of the two of them to retreat, so they turned around and quietly left backwards, when suddenly there was a roar of beasts, and the two of them couldn't help but stop when they heard this sound, could it be the "Sword Wing Snow Leopard"?
A trace of hesitation flashed on Yuan Yue's face, but he still said resolutely: "Brother Xingyun, let's go quickly, even if there is a sword wing snow leopard, but this aura shock wave has reached the strength of the Ten Thousand Sword Gate Masters, although I am very short of points to exchange exercises, I can't put you and me in danger, let's go to other places to try." ”
Cheng Xingyun was actually very hesitant in his heart, but thinking that this mission opportunity was rare, if the two of them took such a big risk to come here empty-handed, it would be even more hasty in the already short time. However, if he wants to enter the snow slope without being discovered by those high-level fierce beasts, it seems that he can only use this thing, he touched the array disk in his arms, and thought in his heart that it is fortunate that my array disk has a transparent aperture and has a good concealment effect.
So he looked at Yuan Yue, and said in a slightly serious voice: "Yue'er, do you believe me?" This is a rare opportunity and we cannot afford to waste time. My father once gave me something to use when I needed it, and it would cover us, and I promised not to be spotted by those things, so we would take a look from a distance, and if there were no snow leopard cubs nearby, we would leave! ”
Yuan Yue looked at his eyes and was silent for a while, she knew that Brother Xingyun also wanted her to improve her strength as soon as possible, and seeing his extremely serious look, she also returned: "Okay, Brother Xingyun, I believe in you, but no matter what, you still have to focus on your own safety." ”
Cheng Xingyun nodded, let Yuan Yue grab his arm, and then took out the array disk and held it tightly in his hand, and a burst of energy suddenly passed in from the palm of his hand, and suddenly the array disk showed a circle of translucent light, spreading and enveloping the two of them, and in an instant, the two disappeared in the snow, and no trace of breath emanated. The two people in the light mask could see it, and Cheng Xingyun was also relieved in his heart, Yuan Yue was a little puzzled when she saw this situation, but she didn't ask but chose to believe Cheng Xingyun.
"Yue'er, remember not to get too far away from me, I can only use this small range now."
The two of them then slowly walked in the light mask in the direction where the aura shockwave came from, but they didn't see that even though they were careful, there were still shallow footprints left due to the soft snow.
