Chapter 25: The Rat Plague
Because the earth aura is very thin, in this world of the golden element, Xiao Chuan can only rely on his physical strength to advance, but fortunately, after years of elixir transformation and meridian strengthening, Xiao Chuan's physical strength is not trivial, although it cannot be compared with the retreat, but the speed of travel is not slow, but compared with this boundless golden land, Xiao Chuan is still too small.
After walking for two hours, Ogawa was surrounded by white rocks and earth, so Ogawa could only stubbornly walk forward, for fear that he would be completely disoriented if he made a slight turn.
I don't know how far he walked, Xiao Chuan suddenly found that there were several spirit beasts on the boulder in front of him gnawing on the rock mass, the golden qi here was so strong, these spirit beasts could actually feed on it, it was obviously a metallic spirit beast.
And in this golden place, Xiao Chuan's skills have all been discounted, and his ability to protect himself has been greatly reduced, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he quickly stopped, found a huge rock and hid it, and watched from afar.
I saw these spirit beasts, more than three feet long, with silver fur, short limbs, two pointed ears on their heads, a long tail behind them, and a few whiskers on the side of their pointed mouths, like huge mice.
Although Xiao Chuan didn't know what kind of spirit beast this was, he knew that although the spirit beasts that lived in groups like Lu Dao were not strong individually, their numbers were very amazing, and they were often more difficult than the lone spirit beasts, so Xiao Chuan waited far away for these spirit beasts to leave before continuing on the road.
But the road ahead is more difficult to walk, the interval between the appearance of this giant rat is getting shorter and shorter, and the number is increasing, and then there are hundreds or thousands of rats, if the power of the Sky Dance Sand is still there, there is still some certainty in the face of the rat group Xiaochuan, but now this situation once it falls into the rat group, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky.
Xiao Chuan shook the high-grade earth spar in his hand, and had to re-plan for his homecoming, although his spiritual power is still very abundant, but once his spiritual power is exhausted and he can't find a safe environment to recover with the spar, he will face the fate of falling.
So if he encounters danger, Ogawa must completely get rid of it before the aura is exhausted, in order to gain time to recover the aura.
And now the spells that he can rely on are still only the weakened version of the Heavenly Dance Crazy Sand and Xuanjia Technique, although the power of the Golden Blade Sword Duel has increased, but the strength of the single body is really not suitable for dealing with this tide of beasts, and the most important thing is that his current mobility ability is too poor, except for relying on physical strength, there is no other means of escape.
In order to find available means, Xiao Chuan had to temporarily cram, take out all the various jade slips left by Tu Jiao Wuxiong, and carefully examine each jade slip, but it seems that Xiao Chuan still gave up hope, and the power of all the earth spells in this place will be greatly reduced, and he has never really practiced metal exercises, except for the golden blade sword of the origin of the aura, even some other general gold spells cannot be cast.
There was no breakthrough in spells, and Xiao Chuan could only continue to make a fuss about spiritual weapons and talismans.
Although there are a lot of spiritual weapons in Xiao Chuan's hands, most of them are attack spirit weapons, picking and choosing, Xiao Chuan can only take out the cold ice halberd again, after all, the freezing attribute of this high-grade spirit weapon is a good means to delay time, and it can be used.
In addition, Xiao Chuan took out all the rune seals, and in this case of using a trace of aura, this rune seal that can be used without the urging of aura is undoubtedly the best choice.
Especially among these talismans, there are many high-end goods above the mid-grade talismans, as well as a few group attack talismans such as Ten Thousand Sword Duel, Bilang Technique, and Heavenly Lightning Strike, which also makes Xiaochuan feel a little calm.
Xiao Chuan can no longer care about maintaining the route of travel, in order to avoid the giant rat swarm, he will often make a detour for dozens of miles, and at the end of the day, he can only identify a general direction and insist on moving forward.
But as the rat colony became denser and denser, Xiao Chuan couldn't avoid them all.
This time, Xiao Chuan had just climbed over a boulder, and a giant rat under the rock that was wandering outside the group to feed found Xiao Chuan, Xiao Chuan secretly shouted "Not good!" in his heart, but his subordinates did not stop, and immediately urged the aura, and sacrificed the golden blade sword to slash at it.
I saw a golden light, like a meteor and as fast as lightning, and instantly cut the head of the giant rat in half, Xiao Chuan let out a sigh of relief, and said in his heart, "Fortunately!"
Who knew that this unknown giant rat was also a desolate species, although the head was different, but there was no blood flowing out of the wound, but flashing a little silver light, and the severed head let out a scream, and it gradually fell silent.
This scream brought boundless disaster to Xiaochuan. Countless giant rats also screamed like a tide from all directions, and this cry had the ability to breathe people's hearts, making Xiao Chuan feel dizzy for a while.
Xiao Chuan also knew that Lu Dao had now reached the moment of life and death, so he hurriedly urged the aura to cast a condensation decision, and it took a while for his mind to settle down a little. In the face of the boundless rat tide, Xiaochuan had no choice but to run forward with all his might.
The giant rat ran extremely fast, quickly closing the distance between it and Xiao Chuan from several directions, especially the giant rat in front of him as Xiao Chuan rushed forward, and it was already approaching in a moment.
Xiao Chuan didn't dare to use the aura easily, so he raised his hand and sacrificed a medium-grade spirit rune, and the group attack spell was thunderous.
As the spirit rune was sacrificed, a purple thundercloud appeared in the sky out of thin air, and purple lightning twisted and meandered down like a poisonous snake, landing in the group of giant rats, instantly roasting the giant rats to the outside and tender inside, screaming again and again.
Xiao Chuan didn't dare to stop, taking advantage of the thunderclouds blocked by the rat swarm, he stepped on the rat corpses everywhere and continued to rush forward. Some of the giant rats on the ground were dead but not stiff, and when Xiao Chuan stepped on them, they jumped up and bitten, but fortunately, with the attack of the giant rat, they could not threaten Xiao Chuan's weakened version of the Xuanjia Technique, and Xiao Chuan stumbled out of the blocked rat tide.
But the crisis was far from over, and the casualties of the same kind seemed to arouse the anger of the giant rats, and countless giant rats continued to pour towards Xiaochuan from all directions like a sea tide, and the large and small rats in the wilderness joined the pursuit of Xiaochuan, and the blocked rats appeared in front of Xiaochuan from time to time.
The biggest problem that Ogawa faced was that he had no advantage over the giant rat in terms of speed. Although he temporarily rushed out of the rat swarm, the boundless rat tide behind him followed closely, approaching step by step, Xiao Chuan had tried his best to run, but the distance between him and the rat swarm was getting closer and closer.
Once Ogawa Zhilu Dao stops, it means death, so he can only continue to sacrifice various talismans and seals, struggling to support his running footsteps.
I don't know how long the road has been running, the talisman seals in Xiao Chuan's hand have finally been exhausted one by one by the steady stream of rats, and when there is only the last mid-grade spirit rune ten thousand swords left in his hand, Xiao Chuan looked at the boundless sea of rats, and couldn't help sighing, "My dignified spirit beast sect disciple is finally going to be eaten by the spirit beast!"
