Chapter 209: Dragon Source Crystal (4)
Mo Cong and his team made a short trip to the Dark Grand Canyon in the middle of the Black Forest, where they had to complete a difficult task - to stop the Tiger King from digging up the "Dragon Source Crystal".
After a few days and nights of arduous trekking, the black fog in front of me suddenly faded a lot, and in front of me was an open area, with few strange trees, and the ground was covered with a layer of green vegetation similar to the unique characteristics of Shining Beauty, although it was also a heart-shaped leaf, but the leaves here were dark green with a metallic luster, and it was much thinner. The breeze blew, as if countless black hearts were beating, and an ominous aura hung everywhere in the air.
"It used to be very prosperous, you see! Now we seem to be walking on a man-made pavement. ”
Mountain Ghost Wen looked down at the exposed stone slab under his feet, although it looked ancient, the surface was covered with a layer of tiny holes eroded by wind and rain, but it was flat when he walked on it. There are also some tall stone pillars and ruins standing around it, although they are all ruins, they are magnificent. From this, the mountain ghost Wen concluded that this place was most likely a bustling city in the Elven Land.
"Brother Ghost is right!" Chu Ci took out the Black Forest manual given to her by Princess Qin, combined with the map, found the location in the manual, and said: "This was once a very prosperous city with millions of people, but unfortunately, this place became a battlefield hundreds of years ago. ”
"Is it an ancient battlefield?" Mo Cong felt an inexplicable panic and some excitement, and asked, "Chu Ci, are you sure this is an ancient battlefield?"
"It's recorded above," Chu Ci shook the colorful manual and said with a smile: "There should be nothing wrong!" Looking at Mo Cong's face, she suddenly reacted, feeling that the surroundings were too quiet, it was a very unusual quiet, as if there was something mysterious hidden in the air. With Chu Ci's super perception, she knew that this place was not as calm as it appeared to be. A breeze blew, and Chu Ci suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and couldn't help but shudder.
"When you get to the ruins, you must be careful, don't leave the team, there are likely to be dark elves here, those guys are very powerful, everyone must be careful!" Mo Cong instructed, holding Chu Ci in his arms, which seemed to be an intimate action.
Mountain Ghost Wen and the others walked past them one by one, Poison Longzhi held the back of his head with both hands, and finally walked on a flat road, his face was leisurely, and when he passed by Mo Cong and Chu Ci, he reached out and patted Mo Cong's shoulder. smiled and said, "Cousin, don't be intimate for too long!"
"Got it!" Mo Cong smiled strangely, and casually joked with Poison Long Zhi. Watching Poison Dragon Zhi walk away, he lowered his voice in Chu Ci's ear and asked, "Senior sister, do you feel anything?"
"Brother Mo Cong!" Chu Ci looked at Mo Cong a little nervously and said, "It seems that there are no dark elves here as you said, and there are likely to be undead beasts here."
"Shhh ”
"I understand!" Chu Ci smiled and nodded, a touch of watery tenderness rippled in his slender beautiful eyes, and two red clouds flashed on his cheeks.
Mo Cong looked back and saw that those people were all hurrying forward, and quickly kissed Chu Ci's fresh and seductive red lips, and Chu Ci also curled his mouth at the same time. Then the two of them smiled knowingly.
"Senior sister, let's go, we have to get ahead of them!"
"Hmm!"
As he spoke, the two quickened their pace, and when they were less than half a mile away from the ruins, they overtook Huangfu Yunsong, who was walking in front.
"Let's get some rest! Eat a bite to eat, recharge your strength, and try to make your way through the ruins before it gets dark, and camp in the woods ahead. Mo Cong shouted.
"Take a break!"
"Oh! I'm so tired!"
Everyone also felt tired, and one after another gathered together, picked up a flat place, threw down the packages, sat together, felt out food and water, and ate it by themselves. Mo Cong and Chu Ci sat face to face, the two ate half of it, secretly exchanged glances, Mo Cong stood up and said, "Brother Ghost, you guys are waiting here, Chu Ci and I will go to the front to explore the way, and we will be back soon!"
"Ah" Mountain Ghost Wen hesitated a little, just on the way, he noticed that Mo Cong and Chu Ci's expressions were a little weird, as if there was something to hide from everyone, but he was afraid that it was a private matter between the two, so he hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Go quickly, go back quickly!"
"Hmm!" Mo Cong nodded briskly.
"These two guys are mysterious, I don't know what they're doing!" Looking at the backs of Mo Cong and Chu Ci, Poison Longzhi muttered to himself.
"Eat yours!" Huangfu Yunsong glared at him and scolded: "It's best not to guess what people don't want to say." ”
In front of this cold-blooded uncle, Poison Longzhi could only roll his eyes helplessly and bow his head silently.
"Brother Mo Cong, if there are really undead in the ruins in front of you, what are you going to do?" After walking far away, looking back at those people who had been submerged in the black mist, Chu Ci raised his eyes and asked.
"There's no way, we can only take a detour, now is not the time to hunt the undead, and besides, if you want to hunt the undead with their cultivation, you will undoubtedly be sent to death. ”
"Princess Xian'er can do it!"
"Well, but we're just exploring the way, leave him alone. ”
"Hmm!"
Between the words, the two of them had reached the ruins, and when they looked up, they saw that there were very grand and huge buildings everywhere, although they had collapsed, they could still feel the prosperity of the past.
"What a cruel war!" Chu Ci sighed looking at the ruins. Although he only experienced the war in the elven land, but after witnessing the tragic scene of corpses all over the field, Chu Ci was particularly disgusted with the war, and now seeing the scene in front of him, as if he saw the fierce battle back then, Chu Ci couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"War is cruel, but there is no way, sometimes for the sake of peace, you have to fight. Mo Cong looked at the ruins, opened his spiritual eyes, carefully felt the surrounding environment, and suddenly felt a very powerful force spreading in the air, as if it was not far from him and Chu Ci.
Chu Ci had also felt it, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Mo Cong, do you feel it?"
"Sister, let's evacuate quickly!"
As he was talking, Mo Cong's spiritual eyes suddenly noticed a huge transparent head drilling out of a stone pillar more than ten zhang high beside him, and at the same time let out a cruel laugh: "Hahaha! Welcome to you and my friends!"
"Ah!" Chu Ci gasped and exclaimed, "It was discovered!"
Mo Cong hurriedly gave Chu Ci a look, and motioned with his eyes to Chu Ci to lure the undead out. Because where there are undead, it can't be just this one, it's likely to be a group of three or five.
The "spirit beast" is not the soul of a dead person, but a mutated creature that has reached the spiritual level, and each undead spirit is like a mist, they can hide in any object, whether it is water, stones, trees, they can live in it.
"Senior sister, you stand back, I'll deal with it!" Mo Cong said and glanced at Chu Ci.
"Hmm!" Chu Ci understood what Mo Cong meant, and knew that he wanted to lure that guy out, so he nodded and stepped back.
The creature hidden in the stone pillar was massive, almost transparent, with a pair of large eyes that glittered, and its nose could not be seen clearly, except for the two fangs sticking out of its cheeks.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's human, it's been a long time since I've tasted a fresh human!" the guy stared at his bowl-sized eyes, and his body moved out of the stone pillar a little bit, looking like transparent glass.
"Then let's give you a taste of humanity now!" Mo Cong said as he leaped into the air, the Moon Shadow Sword flashed coldly, and Mo Cong felt like he had slashed at the monster's head, but his spiritual eyes told him that it was just an illusion. The moment his sword fell, the monster leaped into the air.
"So fast!" "So fast!" Mo Cong's super spiritual perception told Mo Cong that the level of that monster was even higher than him, if there were a few more guys like this, I am afraid that there would be no need to go to the Tiger King, so the body did not wait for the landing, and the body under his feet instantly floated in the air and retreated rapidly, trying to lure the guy away from the ruins.
"I want to run!"
The undead suddenly increased their movement speed, and the super-fast speed brought a whirlwind of wind, and the air was turbulent like splashing ink.
"Come on!" Mo Cong had a teasing smile on his face, his body still retreating rapidly, always keeping a dozen paces away from the beast.
The beast didn't know what was going on, and suddenly pulled out a very rough blade from behind him, which looked like a large knife. The blade extended the beast's attack range, and with a lifting of spiritual power, it swung its giant arm and slashed at the top of Mo Cong's head.
Mo Cong wanted to take the opportunity to test how strong the beast's spiritual power was, so he didn't dodge, raised the spiritual power to his arm, and raised the Moon Shadow Sword to meet the beast's blade. There was a loud bang, and the exploding spiritual power spread like flames to the surroundings.
Although that beast cultivated spiritual power, it could only use brute force, so it suffered a big loss when it collided with it. The beast's entire body floated in the air, pressing the blade towards Mo Cong's head with all its might. Mo Cong held the Moon Shadow Sword in both hands, gritted his teeth and insisted. The strength of the beast was too great, and fine beads of sweat oozed from Mo Cong's forehead.
"No, I can't hold on like this, I've got to find a way to get out."
Mo Cong was thinking in his heart that he could get out of this stalemate smoothly and inflict a fatal blow on the beast when he withdrew, when he suddenly saw Chu Ci appear behind him, and the girl jumped up high, brandishing the Moon Shadow Spear and stabbing at the back of the beast.
"Brother Mo Cong, I'm here!"
Mo Cong secretly rejoiced in his heart, Chu Ci might not be able to let the beast die this time, but it was enough to distract its energy. Sure enough, as Mo Cong expected, when Chu Ci picked up the Moon Shadow Spear, the beast was aware of it, and when Chu Ci raised the spear to stab, the beast's strength weakened by half in order to dodge, and then suddenly withdrew to the side to dodge. Mo Cong got the gap, raised his arm and slashed at the beast's arm, the Moon Shadow Sword carried a cold light, and the light red color spiritual power was like a beautiful glow, sweeping from top to bottom. The beast's forearm, which had carried the sword, fell to the ground along with the broadsword.
Seeing that his arm was still twitching on the ground, the beast's eyes widened, without weapons and half of its arms, its combat effectiveness was sharply reduced, and the undead did not dare to fight, and turned around to run.
"Chu Ci, stop it!" Mo Cong hurriedly shouted, and at the same time flew over.
"Understood!" Chu Ci raised the big gun and landed on the ground, blocking the way of the undead, and a rare cold glint flashed in the girl's eyes, "Look where you are running!" Facing the huge undead who were several times larger than himself, Chu Ci's face was not more colorful, and his shots were ruthless and accurate, and he fired skills in a row, and hit with moves.
In a moment, the undead had been shot several times, and a white mist appeared from the gun eyes on its body, and the beast jumped like thunder, roared and swung a boulder-like fist and smashed it towards Chu Ci. Chu Ci was stunned, and hurriedly raised the Moon Shadow Gun to greet him. At this moment, Mo Cong raised his sword behind the beast's back, and a huge head was cut off and fell to the ground, and his body slowly fell.
"Brother Mo Cong, they're here!" Chu Ci smoothly sorted out the few strands of hair scattered on his face, and raised his eyes to see that the mountain ghost Wen and the others had already run to the front.
"Wow, what a big guy!" called out Poison Dragon.
"Don't come here yet!" Mo Cong was afraid that the elves released by the undead would burn them, so he hurriedly waved his hand behind him.
When the mountain ghost Wen heard this, he immediately stopped his steps, raised his arm and said, "Don't go over, everyone!" I don't know what is lying on the ground, after listening to Mo Cong and the mountain ghost Wen's instructions, the people didn't dare to step forward anymore, and stood from a distance watching with a puzzled face.
"Senior sister, take its spiritual power!"
"Okay!"
As he spoke, Mo Cong and Chu Ci raised their palms and used the secret ** of the Snow Lady, and the white breath continued to enter Mo Cong and Chu Ci's bodies from the body of the beast.
