Chapter 1204: Steps
Wuqi nodded heavily, glanced at Xiao Bai, and walked into the door without stopping.
Along the way, they have walked through many doors, there are the gates of hell that enter hell from the human world, there are the whirlpool gates that leave the star of their hometown, and there are also isolation walls that separate living beings from the dead, which are actually doors, these doors in front of them are very different from the world behind them, and this time, naturally, is no exception.
As soon as they stepped into this door, Wuqi and Xiaobai saw something different, and what caught their eyes was a stepped staircase, there were many steps, and at a glance, there was no end in sight, and they could only see that the steps had extended out of their field of vision, and they did not enter the unknown area that they could not see.
"Boss, this seems like a long staircase. There's no end in sight. Xiao Bai glanced at the front of the steps and said with some surprise.
"That's right. Wuqi nodded and said, "This step extends to the lower part of the mountain, it seems that the third layer of hell is still very far away from us, and I don't know how long the road will be on this huge step, let's not waste any more time, let's speed up the progress." ”
"Good. After listening to this, Xiaobai nodded in agreement.
The next moment, as the words landed, I saw the two of them look at each other, and the figures flickered at the same time, and they immediately disappeared, turning into a bright white light, flashing out, like a flying meteor, flying towards the end of the steps, the speed is enough to make people staggering.
If Rod saw this scene at this moment, he would definitely be shocked and dumbfounded. Because, at this moment, the speed of Wuqi and Xiaobai's rush has surpassed him. Obviously, Wuqi and Xiaobai's realm is comparable to him, and the speed is definitely not comparable to that of a proficient person like him, but the reality is that such a thing has happened, and it is absolutely difficult for Rhodes to accept.
It's good that he wasn't there, otherwise, he would definitely be deeply hit by this scene, but in fact, this is also normal.
After all, although the ultimate speed of Wuqi and Xiaobai is not as good as that of Rhodes, the speed of the two is combined. It's not even as fast as Rhodes' peak speed. However, after all, this is from the top down, which means that Wuqi and Xiaobai used their own weight, so. Actually, at this moment. It's no surprise that they can overtake Rhodes for the time being. If not, it would be strange.
Of course, this is also when Rhodes does not rush in the same way. If Rod was also at this huge moment at this moment, extending all the way down the lull and galloping fast on the steps at the end of the front of him, the speed of Wuqi and Xiaobai would still be compared to Rhodes.
"Boss, this staircase is so long, we have been on the road for a month, and we still haven't reached the bottom step, is it possible that it will take another year to travel?" A month later, when he found that the road ahead was long, and it seemed that the day of reaching the end was far away, Xiaobai began to complain.
After hearing this, Wuqi smiled bitterly, spread his hands, made a helpless gesture, and said, "That's no way." If this step is really that long, we can only accept the reality, after all, our speed is only so fast, it can't be faster. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiaobai originally wanted to say more, but seeing that Lian Wuqi expressed helplessness, he had to change his mind, sighed, and fell into silence. It's not that it doesn't want to continue, but it already feels that it doesn't make sense, and since saying anything now won't help it to hurry, what do you need to talk nonsense about?
It was precisely because of this thought that Xiaobai chose to keep his mouth shut, but soon an accident happened, just when Xiaobai thought that the next period of time would be boring and boring again, an inexplicable loud noise suddenly came behind it, that is, above the steps.
"Boom !!"
This is a deafening loud noise, obviously far away from Wuqi and Xiaobai, but the movement brought is very loud, and it can make the huge steps under the feet of the two of them tremble uncontrollably, how loud and how much movement does it take to cause such an effect?
As soon as they thought of this, almost instantly, Wuqi and Xiaobai's expressions became nervous, and the casual and boring mood just now disappeared in an instant, and the mood was directly replaced by an unconcealable apprehension.
"Boss, what the hell was going on with that voice just now, why is it so loud?" Xiaobai asked with an uneasy expression.
Wuqi shook his head and said, "I don't know what to do." But it's probably not a good thing, so let's pay attention. Perhaps, something has fallen. ”
"Something, what could it be down? We came down the first step of the highest staircase, and we didn't see anything damaged along the way. Xiaobai didn't understand what Wuqi meant, and asked.
Wuqi didn't explain, and directly stretched out his finger and pointed to the top of his head.
Xiao Bai subconsciously looked up at the top of his head along the point of Wuqi, and immediately understood, it turned out that the thing on the top that Wuqi was referring to was not something on the steps, but the sky above the steps that could not be seen through, could not see through, and could not see the end at a glance, and now he could only see a piece of pure darkness.
However, there is something falling from the sky for no reason? Xiaobai is still a little difficult to accept, and said: "Boss, although there is such a possibility, but it is not too unreasonable? If there is really something falling in the sky above our heads, why don't we fall early or late, and we have to wait for us to step on this giant staircase?"
Wuqi smiled helplessly again and said, "I'm not the guardian of hell, you ask me this, how do I know the Dao?
Xiaobai, don't worry about it so much, find a way to protect yourself first. It's better to take precautions in advance than to be caught off guard when the real danger comes, it took us so long to get through the second level of hell, I don't want the end of our trip to stop here. ”
"I see, boss. Then I don't think much about it, hurry up. Xiaobai nodded knowingly and said.
After hearing this, Wuqi finally showed a satisfied look, and no longer wasted his mind on the conversation, without saying a word, he raised his hand and waved, and without waiting for the crisis to come, he directly released the substitution technique to Xiaobai first, and at the same time, for insurance, he used the method of mind manipulation learned from Parsa, and as soon as his mind moved, he immediately released his own thoughts.
The next moment, an ethereal and illusory force appeared, directly enveloping Wuqi and Xiaobai. This is not some modified breath, but the power condensed by pure thought, although there is no offensiveness, but the defensive ability is one of the strongest, compared to the most basic aura shield of the monk, stronger.
Because, the strength of the mind will directly determine the success of the protection, not how much damage will be suffered, the power of the mind is stronger than the attack, you can completely rely on the characteristics of the mind, so that the person protected by the mind will not be harmed in any way, Wuqi has a strong confidence in his own mind, so he does this.
However, self-confidence is sometimes easy to be careless, and this is the case this time, just when Wuqi thought that he had thought it through incomparably well, even if he encountered something dangerous, no matter how terrible the attack, he could perfectly defuse it, something beyond Wuqi's expectations happened.
I only heard "boom!" and another loud bang came inexplicably from the rear, "Boom...... Bang...... Bang...... Boom ......" actually reverberated one after another loud noises, and as time passed, the sound did not weaken, but became louder and louder, and it also got closer and closer to his own place.
However, this is not unexpected, since you guess that something may have fallen from the sky, then something will definitely roll down the steps, and the previous actions are to prepare for this, no matter how much impact the falling thing can cause with the speed of falling, it will be resolved by itself one by one, Wuqi is full of confidence in this.
However, this is not the case, and there is one thing that Wu Qi guessed correctly, that is, something did roll down from above, that is, from behind him, and it was an iron ball of unknown size, "boom...... The speed of the boom ...... was very fast, and the movement caused was so great that it was the iron ball that made the entire staircase tremble.
However, when Wuqi thought that he could easily block it, he found that he was completely wrong, the impact of this iron ball was very fierce, if it was hit head-on, even Xiao Bai would collapse physically, and the force of that impact was definitely not weaker than the full force of the Divine Spirit Realm monk's blow, and even, in comparison, it was better to be stronger.
However, when Wuqi was full of confidence, Chengzhu released the power of his mind in his chest, trying to block the iron ball, but there was a situation beyond his cognition.
I saw the iron ball rolling down with a terrifying sound, and it looked like it was about to hit Wuqi and Xiaobai, but at the moment of contact, it completely penetrated, as if it was not in the same time and space as himself, and it penetrated the bodies of the two at once, and rolled directly to the end of the steps that I don't know how deep.
This strange phenomenon made Wuqi and Xiaobai stunned as soon as it appeared.
"What's the situation, boss, after a long time, this iron ball is fake?" asked Xiaobai puzzled.
Is it true or fake?
Wuqi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, what could have such a big impact on the steps under his feet was really just a scare, or was it anything else? What did its appearance represent?
As soon as he thought of this, Wuqi subconsciously thought about it, trying to find out the problem on this big iron ball. Because, he didn't believe that this big iron ball that suddenly fell would just scare and scare people, and he couldn't make any other movements, and it would definitely pose a threat to himself, but he hadn't discovered it yet.
"Xiaobai, don't jump to conclusions. Something bad will happen to this iron ball, don't be careless. Wuqi reminded. (To be continued......)
