Unsheathed Sword Chapter Ninety-Nine: Buried Secrets

When Xu Huaigu opened his eyes again, he was already teary-eyed, and his mind vaguely didn't know what was going on, but he still remembered the memory of Yu Qin in the illusion.

He looked at the void sky of Lethe and felt very beautiful.

He felt a chill on his back, so he got up, and found that he had been unconscious on a large rock, and in the crevice under the rock grew a flower with huge blue-purple petals, and it was this heart demon flower that brought him into the illusion, and the black humanoid creature that claimed to be the heart demon also disappeared.

Xu Huaigu knew that this was the result of Yu Qin's death, and the demons in his heart had been eliminated.

For some reason, Xu Huaigu was still a little grateful to this flower in his heart. It was it that brought Xu Huaigu an unforgettable experience, if it weren't for it, maybe Xu Huaigu couldn't see his true heart clearly, but now he already has the answer in his heart.

With a sword in his hand, he slashed the large flower, and the black slurry seeped out from the cut of the flower, and the smell of fishy smell filled the air.

He didn't want to stay here any longer, he just wanted to find Bai Xiaoyu and Huang Shan quickly, and then get the antidote and go back to save Yu Qin.

He glanced into the depths of the Mountain of Good and Evil, and there was no more fear in his heart, only a strong desire for an antidote.

He took a step, resolutely towards the depths of the mountain of good and evil.

……

There is no day or night in Lethe, only the three suns, which barely shine brightly, rise and set. Xu Huaigu didn't know how long time had passed, but he felt very tired, but the scene of Yu Qin dying in the illusion and the sentence "The other world will always be together" still lingered in his heart, supporting him to take heavy steps step after step.

He gritted his teeth, strengthened his faith, and continued to move forward in this mountain of good and evil with no way out in sight.

The hoarse wind blew through the bare rocks, a few gravels were blown off from time to time, and there were some strange-looking blackbirds on the cliffs, which kept hissing, and their voices were extremely harsh, like people with their throats broken.

In short, everything in Lethe is black, gray, and blood-red, and the voice is hoarse and low or sharp and harsh, full of dead silence, worthy of being called the underworld.

A small black beast quietly emerged from the shadows under the mountain rock, and quickly rushed towards Xu Huaigu.

It is about three feet in size, only a little larger than the average domestic dog, but it has two tails that are about the same length as its entire body, which is extremely uncoordinated and looks very strange.

Xu Huaigu only glanced at it, then slashed his sword in that direction and killed it.

Xu Huaigu felt very bored, this was not the first local creature he had encountered, he had seen many giant lizards, black birds and other things before, all of which came towards Xu Huaigu, but these little creatures did not have a body that was difficult to enter with a sword, and their intelligence was not high, so they were basically killed by Xu Huaigu with a sword.

Xu Huaigu knew that there must be powerful demon beasts in Lethe, but until now, he was glad that he hadn't encountered it yet.

A cold touch suddenly came from the top of his head, and Xu Huaigu touched his head, it was a drop of rain.

He looked up at the void dome, and another drop of rain fell on his face.

I didn't expect there to be rain in Lethe, but it was a bit interesting.

Xu Huaigu didn't care about the rain, he was still in a hurry, but soon, he had to take care of it.

The rain came like a summer rainstorm, very quickly, and the raindrops grew at the sight of the wind, and in a few breaths they began to grow in size, and then they became a torrential downpour.

There was a thunderous roar in his ears, and Xu Huaigu looked up into the distance, and saw a bolt of lightning running across the sky of Lethe. It's just that the lightning in Lethe River is not like the outside world, it does not fall from the sky, but spreads the sky like a big net, and as soon as the lightning comes out, the sky is suddenly covered with thunder nets, which is very spectacular.

The rain fell wantonly, Xu Huaigu felt the unbearable cold all over his body, and immediately realized that something was wrong with the rain.

The rain seemed to have an erosive effect on the aura in Xu Huaigu's body, and the little aura left in Xu Huaigu's body was passing rapidly under the rain.

At this rate, it would only take an hour for his body to completely lose his aura, and he knew that he couldn't stay outside for long, so he hurriedly ran up, trying to find a place to hide from the rain.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate act, but he had just rounded a ridge when he saw a man-sized hole appear halfway up the mountain, hidden between several huge rocks, looming.

Xu Huaigu was stunned for a moment, feeling that the appearance of this cave entrance seemed to be a bit too coincidental, but the depleted aura in his body did not allow him to hesitate any longer. Stay in the rain for a while, and after his aura is used up, he will be just an ordinary person, and at that time, he will probably never be able to leave Lethe River again.

The entrance to the cave was very small, Xu Huaigu tightened his chest before he could get in, and looking inside from the entrance of the cave, the cave was very deep and he couldn't see the bottom.

It can't be the gateway to the Netherworld, right?

Xu Huaigu just came up with this idea, and he felt a gloomy cold wind suddenly blowing out of the cave, and he was suddenly even more scared. But the rain outside the cave was getting heavier and heavier, and there was no sign of stopping, so Xu Huaigu could only stay here.

A long time passed, and the rain was still pouring down. Xu Huaigu was anxious, he was not worried about his own safety, but he was afraid that Yu Qin would die in the process of their search for an antidote.

But the strange rain outside must not go, and the only way left is inside this cave.

Xu Huaigu was ruthless, thinking that Yu Qin could commit suicide for himself, so what else did he hesitate about? It's ridiculous.

He took the "Xiaoyu" long sword in his hand, and walked to the depths of the cave with the sword.

This cave is also a wonderful place, Xu Huaigu was originally worried that he would enter a dead end, but the more he walked inside, the cave became bigger and bigger.

The cave was very damp, and the eerie cold wind kept blowing out from the depths of the cave, although Xu Huaigu was afraid, he also knew that there was wind in the cave, which meant that there was air circulation, and there would inevitably be an exit.

It was quiet in my ears, except for the occasional sound of dripping water falling from the top of the hole.

Xu Huaigu suppressed his fear and remained vigilant at all times, because he didn't know if there would be any demon beasts or dangers in this cave, so he had to guard against it.

Despite his caution, his worst fears inevitably happened.

Xu Huaigu saw that in the pitch-black cave, which was already two people high, a pair of green glows suddenly lit up, like the light of fireflies in the night sky.

Then the sound of heavy breathing gradually sounded in the dull cavern.

The cave was originally very closed, and the sound of low breathing lingered in the cave, and suddenly Xu Huaigu's ears were full of this sound.

The two small dark green dots of light floated in the dark cavern and swayed.

Xu Huaigu was very nervous, and he didn't dare to take a breath. He knew that there must be some monster hiding in this cave, and as soon as he entered, he woke up the sleeping monster.

Because there was no light in the cave, he couldn't see the appearance of the demon beast, and could only see the movement of the two dark green light spots to judge the location of the demon beast.

Those two dark green points of light seemed to be flames burning, making Xu Huaigu unconsciously think of the eyes of the two wolves in Astragalus Mountain, ferocious, indifferent, and determined to win.

The demon beast suddenly became difficult, carrying a fishy wind and pounced on Xu Huaigu, Xu Huaigu knew that this demon beast must be different from the little demon beast he saw outside, it was a very powerful demon, so he didn't dare to face it head-on, so he had to avoid its edge.

As soon as the demon beast pounced, Xu Huaigu rolled to the side, dodging the attack of the demon beast, and then the muffled sound of the flesh hitting the stone wall sounded in the cave, and the force was very great.

Fortunately, the stone walls of this mountain of good and evil are all very hard black obsidian, and even Xu Huaigu's "Xiaoyu" sword can't cut into, otherwise this demon beast will inevitably collapse the cave.

The demon beast failed to attack for the first time, so it put away its attack, hid in the darkness, and continued to observe Xu Huaigu's flaws.

Xu Huaigu's current situation can be described as extremely dangerous, that demon beast has a very high intelligence, although its strength is much higher than his, it still takes this battle very seriously.

Xu Huaigu only thought for a moment, and felt that he could never hide anymore, and he must strike first to survive.

In fact, there is not only one road in the cave, but also many forks, some of which are still very narrow, so Xu Huaigu wants to rely on the narrow terrain to get rid of this demon beast.

He felt that he couldn't wait any longer and wanted to take the initiative, so he took the initiative to run deeper into the cave.

When the demon beast saw that Xu Huaigu was about to run, he also quickly twisted his body and rushed up.

Xu Huaigu ran wildly all the way, and the demon beast behind him chased after him, but there were indeed several narrow places in the cave, which made the demon beast suffer, so he hadn't caught up with Xu Huaigu yet.

When Xu Huaigu turned his head to look, he saw a cloud of day-like light gradually appearing in the cave, illuminating the darkness in the cave.

Xu Huaigu finally saw the appearance of that demon beast clearly.

It was about one person tall, two people long, with four slender limbs, two wings on its back, and its whole body was covered with red-black sharp scale armor, and it was opening its mouth to reveal sharp fangs, facing Xu Huaigu.

The first thing Xu Huaigu thought of was a dragon, not a traditional mid-domain dragon, but a demon dragon similar to the demon in the demon domain.

Xu Huaigu saw that white light emanating from the throat of this demon dragon, and a bold idea suddenly came to him.

Isn't this dragon going to breathe fire?

A fire erupted from the cave where he came and went, and Xu Huaigu must not be roasted to death? He was really panicked.

He ran desperately, hoping to find a fork in the road and escape the dragon's flames.

Xu Huaigu could feel that the air was becoming hot and dry, and there was not much time left for him.

At the last moment, Xu Huaigu's eyes suddenly flashed, revealing an ecstatic laugh.

There was really a fork in the road on his right hand, where did he dare to stop the slightest, and he jumped into the fork in the road without thinking about it.

The moment he threw himself into the fork in the road, a blazing white flame filled the main road of the former cave.

Xu Huaigu gasped, looked at the flames in front of him, and laughed.

It's a good feeling for the rest of my life.

And this fork in the road happens to be neither big nor small, enough for Xu Huaigu to pass alone, the demon dragon can't enter, but he still doesn't dare to stay, what if the demon dragon has other means?

He got up and hurried into the fork in the road again.

The demon dragon chased after this fork in the road, hurriedly stopped, looked at Xu Huaigu who entered with horror in his eyes, took a few steps back with fear, and then fled from this fork in the road like a rush.

Of course, Xu Huaigu, who had already entered the fork in the road, didn't know the reaction of the demon dragon, as well as the few crooked letterings he didn't have time to see at that fork in the road.

"The master of Lethe River is resting here, and the king of Shura Hades does not dare to approach, so don't go forward!"
