Chapter 118: Hostage-taking, Jedi Strikes Back
When Jiang Chen landed, the darkness brought by the tall demon had also spread over his body.
The vicious aura in the darkness collided directly, and at this time, Jiang Chen's foothold was not stable, the old power was exhausted, and the new power was not born, so he couldn't dodge it at all, so he could only raise his long sword and take the blow hard.
"Khooth!"
The sharp claws slammed into the sword's body, and the crazy and tyrannical power surged, pressing Jiang Chen's breathlessness.
His body was not in the best state at this time, and he could not completely stimulate the boiling blood, so he could only face the opponent with the strength of the sixth-order "blood transfer" edge level, and after a hard fight, he felt that his chest was like being hammered, and his body fell out like a scarecrow, and he spit out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.
The demon in the darkness was in hot pursuit, and Jiang Chen couldn't get rid of it even after using his body technique to change his position several times, but was forced closer and closer by it.
Jiang Chen had no choice but to ignore the injuries in his body, forcibly urge the boiling blood, and the blood light around his body became more and more intense, making a hard-hitting posture and swinging his sword towards the tall demon.
The tall demon does not dodge or dodge, and swings his claws to meet the attack.
But Jiang Chen's sword was just a false move, as soon as the two forces came into contact, Jiang Chen slid to the side like a loach, and his left hand lightly slapped towards the tall demon's head.
The tall demon man was not surprised, tilted his head, and while swinging away the long sword, he also accurately judged Jiang Chen's position, and his sharp claws slammed into his heart.
Jiang Chen scolded secretly, this demon put on a lose-lose posture, obviously trying to force himself to retreat, so as to seize the opportunity.
He saw the other two demons approaching one after the other, and knew that he couldn't hesitate, so he immediately gritted his teeth, avoided the key point slightly, drew his sword with his right hand and defended it, and his left palm was weighted and slapped on the shoulder of the tall demon man rapidly.
Just hearing a "click", the "Space Distortion" divine power attached to Jiang Chen's palm smashed its shoulder through the tall demon's protective energy, and the twisting force even turned that piece of flesh into a pulp.
Under the pain of the tall demon, his right claw deviated by half an inch and smashed on the blade, and the fierce force caused the sword body to bend, and then hit Jiang Chen's ribs.
Even through a sword blade, the fierce and domineering power still seeped into his body, and Jiang Chen suddenly felt the pain of piercing his heart, and his internal organs were stirred.
Jiang Chen's figure staggered, and after a moment of trance, he struggled to regain consciousness, knowing that he had suffered serious internal injuries.
But half of the tall demon's shoulders were shattered, and the injuries he suffered were definitely more serious than Jiang Chen's. As long as Jiang Chen made up for it with another sword, it would be able to kill it.
However, this was not a one-on-one heads-up, the other two demons had also approached, and Jiang Chen had already heard the terrible sound of wind coming from behind him.
At this time, he was in severe pain, and the slightest movement affected the injuries in his body, and even the long sword in his hand became very heavy.
He was fierce in his heart, and he bit the tip of his tongue violently, and the severe pain brought his consciousness back to his senses, and his momentum swelled again, and the violent power surged in his veins, which was the last madness of the ruined boat.
He swung around and swung his sword, the red sword aura shining brighter than the sunlight leaking from the branches and leaves, carrying an unrivaled might, breaking through the wind behind him, and penetrating the head of the sneak attack demon in an instant.
With this swift sword, the corpse of the demon was also carried upside down, and it fell to the ground with a thud, smashing another demon to the ground as well.
Jiang Chen caught up again, made up for the sword, and settled the account.
"Stop!" A low, hoarse voice came from behind.
"Uh-huh......"
Immediately afterwards, Lin Xi's low snort of pain sounded, and although she tried her best to suppress it, it still reached Jiang Chen's ears.
Jiang Chen staggered and turned around, and Lin Xi's figure was reflected in the blurred vision, she was being strangled by the neck of the tall demon, and her eyes were looking towards this side sadly.
"Put your sword down!" The tall Majin commanded in an ugly voice.
Jiang Chen couldn't hold the long sword, and the hilt of the sword slowly slipped from his fingers and fell to the ground with a clatter.
He bowed his body, gasping for breath while silently adjusting the blood qi in his body.
These three-headed demons are all physique above the fifth-order "marrow washing", and the strongest tall demons are even the peak of the sixth-order "blood transfer", which is no less than the original Chiyang and martial arts!
The power of the three of them combined is almost equivalent to that of Chiyang and Wu Lian joining forces!
Jiang Chen killed two of them in one go, and severely damaged the tall demons, this killing power can be described as shocking, but he himself paid a heavy price.
After the violent murderous aura was vented, his spirit and spirit were almost exhausted, and bursts of exhaustion attacked his consciousness, and the vision in front of him seemed to become blurred.
The tall demon saw Jiang Chen's weakness, but he still didn't dare to act rashly - this human had just slaughtered its two companions like killing chickens, and the ferocity was simply outrageous. At this time, although he seemed to be at the end of a strong crossbow, his bloodthirsty posture was still intimidating.
Only the hostages held in his hands can bring some security to the tall demons.
Jiang Chen gasped for breath, and it took him a long time before he regained some consciousness, looked up at the tall demon, and said in surprise: "You can speak human language?" ”
"Not bad. I am the wise man of the clan, and of course I am not like those inferior soldiers. The tall Majin hissed as he spoke, and seemed to be enduring the pain in his left shoulder.
But as its limbs twitched slightly, Lin Xi, who was coerced by it, also showed a look of pain, his face was flushed, and it was difficult to breathe.
Jiang Chen didn't care to ask about the origin of these demons, and when he saw the uncomfortable expression on Lin Xi's face, he shouted, "You let her go!" ”
The demon snorted, "If you don't want to see her die, you have to promise me something." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Take us out of this forest and into your human quarters!"
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "I promise you." ”
He needs to delay time and recover a little bit of Shenyuan before he can use the "Space Jump" magic power to kill this last demon.
But time is not only on his side, the other companions of the demon are probably already on their way, and when they arrive, no matter how brave Jiang Chen is, he will only be beaten to death.
Both sides have no choice but to gamble on their lives.
The tall demon stared at Jiang Chen and said slowly, "Before leaving, I have to ask Your Excellency a few questions. ”
Jiang Chen said: "You can ask anything, let her go first!" ”
The demon man smiled abruptly: "You are not qualified to bargain!" ”
As he spoke, the big hands covered with green hair weighed on the weight, Lin Xi's neck was strangled and he couldn't breathe, his face turned from red to purple, and his eyes began to turn white.
Jiang Chen's breathing became rapid, he took a step forward angrily, raised his right hand but put it down, looked at Lin Xi's painful face, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh: "If you have any questions, just ask!" ”
The demon man relaxed his palm slightly, the cruel smile on the corner of his lips gradually converged, stared at Jiang Chen and asked, "First question, in your human world, what level of combat power like Your Excellency is in?" ”
After Lin Xi took a breath, he winked at Jiang Chen, as if expressing some kind of meaning.
She told me to go first?
Jiang Chen looked at Lin Xi, his eyes were sad and helpless, and he suddenly felt a sense of soul breaking in his heart.
He thought of Chiyang again, when he parted in the temple that day, was he also as sad and powerless as he is now?
But I'm not who I used to be, and I'm not going to let that happen again......
The demon's cold snort woke Jiang Chen up, he calmed down, and replied, "We divide the combat power into ten levels, and count ordinary civilians as the first order, and I am probably at the sixth order. ”
His answer was very brief, and he didn't mention the distinction between the three cultivation paths of body forging, qi training, and god refining in Yunmeng World, and I believe that the demons would not pay attention to such details.
"Yes, in line with my intelligence, you're honest." The demon man nodded with satisfaction, "Second question, how many tenth-order warriors like Zhang Manqing are there in your human world?" ”
It was able to say the name of the national teacher Zhang Manqing, which made Jiang Chen a little surprised.
The national teacher Zhang Manqing is a "human immortal" of the tenth order of Qi training, and has the ability to move mountains and reclaim the sea, and may have left a painful lesson for these demons.
Jiang Chen thought for a moment and replied, "No more than twenty." ”
Among the tenth-order powerhouses, the martial arts are respected by the four sword saints of "Heavenly Sword", "Buddha Sword", "Black Sword", and "Dragon Sword", and the three masters of the Floating Tu Sect, the Lord of the Green Hades Temple, and the Lord of the Wind and Rain Mansion are respected by the Divine Refining Sect, and the whereabouts of the Immortal Zhenjun who practice Qi are ethereal, and the national teacher Zhang Manqing and the Fanghua Guan Lord are the most famous. In addition, each of the seven great families has one or two tenth-order powerhouses in charge, adding up to a total of about twenty.
The number of "Twenty ......" was a big surprise to the Demon Man, his eyes widened, and then he suppressed the ups and downs in his heart, pretended to be calm, and asked, "How many sixth-order warriors are there like Your Excellency?" ”
"I can't count them, there are about one or two sixth-order warriors in each city, and there may be more in the Holy City......"
The questions raised by the demon are equivalent to the common sense that children know in the Cloud Dream World, and Jiang Chen can answer them casually.
But the demon man became more and more engaged in these simple answers, and unconsciously relaxed the clamp on Lin Xi's neck and hands.
Judging by the way it is so interested in the human world, it is likely that it wants to invade again.
It's a pity that it doesn't have this opportunity.
It learned from Jiang Chen's mouth that there was also an Eleventh Realm "Yuan Zhen" Saint who had surpassed the Tenth Order on the Sky City, and it couldn't help but show a shocked expression on its face.
Jiang Chen took this opportunity, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he flew out, his figure disappeared from the spot, crossed the three-zhang space, and instantly came to the side of the demon.
"Space Jump"!
"Poof!"
Jiang Chen's palm turned into the sharpest blade, cutting off the demon's head and bringing up a large blood flower.
The demon didn't snort either, and the head that rolled to the ground still had a shocked expression on its face, as if he couldn't believe that he would die so suddenly.
Lin Xi and Jiang Chen were both drenched in blood all over their faces, and their bodies were drenched with a large patch.
Lin Xi bit his lip and almost screamed, but he covered his mouth again.
Jiang Chen wiped his face, picked up the long sword from the ground, and pulled up Lin Xi, like a cloud driving the mist, and rushed into the dense forest in front of him.
After a desperate run, Jiang Chen's physical strength gradually ran out.
Even Lin Xi beside him felt his exhaustion.
"Jiang Shaoxia, you are panting so much, take a break......"
"Jiang Shaoxia, don't be reluctant. Otherwise, I'll carry you? ”
Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and used his will to fight the feeling of dizziness, once again inducing the potential in his body, but he still inevitably fell into a state of running out of oil and running out.
His speed became slower and slower, his body seemed to sink in a vague abyss, his steps staggered, his eyes became more and more hazy, and he even felt that the surrounding woods had become dark or light spots, and he could not even make out the road under his feet.
He reluctantly adjusted his internal breath, and was in turn supported by Lin Xi, and the two of them staggered in the jungle where they didn't know the direction, and suddenly their feet were weak, and their steps were empty, and they fell into the darkness in Lin Xi's screams.
The weightlessness of the rapid fall made Jiang Chen regain some consciousness, and he grabbed Lin Xi tightly, using his hands and feet together, hoping to grab the cliff next to him.
Unable to see anything clearly in the dark, he touched the wall several times in a row with his palm, but he couldn't find a point of strength.
He came to his senses - he had fallen into the trap of hunters hunting monsters!
Since it's a pit, not a cliff, there's another way to slow down the fall.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen mustered up the little strength he had left and kicked hard against the wall, and together with Lin Xi, he was shocked out and hit the wall on the other side, groaning in pain, but the falling momentum finally slowed down a little.
He continued to do so, kicked the wall again, flew backwards, and hit another wall.
Lin Xi understood his intentions and helped to work together, which made Jiang Chen a lot easier.
Jiang Chen shouted loudly: "Throw something down!" ”
Lin Xi immediately understood what he meant, took off the jade bracelet on his wrist and threw it down.
After a breath, there was a sound of the jade bracelet breaking from below. Jiang Chen also judged the remaining height of the trap from this, which was about three or four zhang deep.
There are usually a lot of spikes and sharp weapons under the trap to kill and injure monsters.
Jiang Chen didn't want to be treated like a beast, and when he was about to fall to the end, he suddenly lifted his breath, and picked up the last Shenyuan to send out a "space warp", only to hear a sharp crisp sound below, the spikes broke countless times, and the entire land was turned over by the plow.
After doing this, Jiang Chen's heart was relieved and he passed out completely.
"Boom!" With a muffled thud, the two bodies fell down, clinging to each other and unable to move.
Lin Xi let out a cry of pain, and his whole body seemed to fall apart.
And Jiang Chen under her didn't say anything at all.
Even after being slowed down by the wall, the force of the fall is enough to make people uncomfortable. Fortunately, the land below was much softer than Jiang Chen, so he didn't end up with broken tendons.
Lin Xi endured the severe pain, struggled to get up slowly, and hissed while shouting, "Jiang Chen! Jiang Chen! Are you okay? Answer me! ”
