Promise gripped the hilt of the sword and danced the blade nimbly, each sword slashing through the air with a sonorous sword sound. He tried his best to avoid fighting the demon for too long and getting into a siege, and adopted the tactic of quickly repelling, which was quite easy for a while, and at the same time kept an eye on Lu Xiao's movements.

The Promise's figure shuttles between the trees, like a gust of breeze. Sometimes he jumped, sometimes he bent down, skilfully dodging the demon's fierce onslaught. Although the demon's attack was ferocious, it always passed by, failing to touch the corner of the promised garment.

The promised swordsmanship is like flowing water, and the sword blade dances, and the light and shadow flicker. His body is extremely nimble, avoiding every ferocious blow of the demon. The sound of the sword echoed through the dense forest, forming a rousing melody that seemed to reflect the roar of the demon.

He only felt that his sword was dancing faster and faster, accompanied by a trace of thunder, looking back at a piercing, he didn't even react himself, and found that he had already strung a demon on his sword, and the demon was pierced and turned into a wisp of smoke and dispersed with the wind.

"Huh?"

How did you get that sword just now?

He began to recall the state just now, and emitted the qi out of his body, in his perception, the qi formed a spherical shape with no dead ends around him like a silk thread, and a one-eyed demon pounced towards the promise, and the moment he touched the silk thread of the qi machine, the promise suddenly turned around and slashed out with a sword.

But the result was not as he thought, the sword body slashed past the side of the demon's body, and the sword was deflected.

Whoa—

Xu didn't have time to dodge, and a cut was made in his shoulder, and the injury looked very serious, and the blood rushed out.

But the strange thing is that the wound is obviously very large, but I don't feel any pain.

Could it be that these beasts have toxins on their claws that can paralyze the nerves?

The sword just now shouldn't have been missed, maybe the one-eyed demon dodged it by itself?

When he looked back, the one-eyed demon had already mixed in with the group of demons and disappeared.

Lu Xiao stood aside with a calm expression. The magic weapon in his hand emitted a faint glow, forming a solid shield that blocked the demon's attacks in front of him. Lu Xiao's eyes flashed with a fine light, accurately analyzing the attack of the demon and looking for a way to crack it.

Xu Promise endured his injuries and realized that the one-eyed demon in front of him was unusual. The attack was clearly beyond his expectations, leaving him with an indescribable sense of defeat.

"The power of demons is indeed not to be underestimated." Lu Xiao said lightly, the light in his eyes became brighter. He observed Promise's injury, but didn't say much, instead focusing on the analysis of the demon.

Xu Yu hesitated for a moment, and said to Lu Xiao: "One of these demons, its attacks and movements are extremely cunning, and it can even bypass my defense. We have to be careful. ”

Lu Xiao nodded, he understood the meaning of the promise. Just now he also discovered an unusual demon, and the combat method is obviously a little special, different from the direct attacks of other demons, it is more flexible and cunning.

"Tactics need to be recalibrated so as not to be attacked like this again."

Xu Promise felt the wound gradually numb, and although he couldn't feel the pain, it also made him more vigilant against demons. He refocused and sword in hand, ready for the battle that followed.

"Senior brother, do you think there is a way to remove this toxin?" Promise asked.

Lu Xiao nodded slightly, and threw a pill to Xu: "There is a way, use the pill to relieve the toxicity first, I will use a spell to disperse the toxins in your body, but it will take some time." You continue to be vigilant and don't be careless. ”

Xu took the pill and hurriedly took it. Feeling that the effect of the elixir was working quickly, although his wound was still bleeding, he could already faintly feel a trace of pain, obviously the toxin that could paralyze the nerves had been dissolved.

Looking at the sky-like group of demons and evils, even Lu Xiao began to frown.

Wrong.

The danger of this task was very low, so he would temporarily decide to go with Xu Xu when another person was unwell, but now it seems that so many demons are obviously not something that ordinary monks can solve.

Why is there such a huge group of demons growing here?

It's a little difficult now, Lu Xiao glanced around in the defensive gap, and found that those demons always stayed in one position, surrounding the two of them with the momentum of encirclement, as if they wanted to use the advantage of numbers to drag them down?

Then the crux of the problem should lie in the one-eyed demon that is different from other demons, and judging from the fact that it knows that it is hiding with the help of other demons, it may have given birth to some spiritual intelligence.

Thinking like this, Lu Xiao picked up his true qi, recited silently in his mouth, and released a fire spell, burning a passage in the demon group, and then looked at the promise:

"Senior brother, retreat first and then think long-term!"

Hearing the sound, Xu Yu galloped through the road broken by Lu Xiao, and when the two left, the demon group did not continue to chase, but watched the two leave.

"Whew, whew."

Xu Yu was a little tired, just now he used his sword to kill dozens of demons, every time he came out of the sword, it would be a great drain on his spirit, at this time his physical strength was fine, but his spirit was already a little unsupportable.

At this time, he felt a light red shimmer light up behind him, and at the same time, his body was warm, and he glanced behind him and found that Lu Xiao was holding a magic seal in his hand, and he was releasing a spell to detoxify himself.

Lu Xiao's magic seal exuded a warm light, seeping into the body of the promise. The touch of the shimmer soothed Promise, and the wound on his shoulder slowly healed as the toxin dissipated.

"Thank you, brother." Promise exhaled slowly.

"The demonic actions in this place are a bit unusual," Lu Xiao nodded as a reply, and then he sat on a stone and frowned, "The tasks issued by the sect to the inner and outer sect disciples are generally relatively simple, and under normal circumstances, encountering two or three demons is already the limit that the sect disciples can deal with, but now there is a group of demons and demons here, which obviously does not match the mission information." ”

Xu promised back, "Maybe it's because there's been some kind of anomaly here?" ”

The two looked at each other, and then said:

"Could it be that the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is a ghost?"

"I can't be sure, but if it is, the one-eyed demon in it has changed."

Speaking of this, Lu Xiao shook his head: "Although I have entered the foundation building realm, I am better at defense, and the exercises I practice are not biased towards killing, this task is ...... No, this matter should be difficult to solve by the two of us alone. ”

Lu Xiao stood up and looked at Xu Promise: "There should be no good solution to this matter except for fighting those demons head-on, there should be no good solution for the time being, let's go and inform those villagers first, and let them go to other places to hide first." ”
