Chapter Forty-Eight: The Scarlet World
This kind of fruit is called "Zhuhua Fruit", which flows a large amount of essence, more than "Jinyan Fruit" many times, is a rare treasure of heaven and earth, and is very valuable.
But not far behind Zhu Huaguo, there were two strange beasts facing each other, one was a snake-tailed human body, the tail scales flashed with cold light, like gold and iron, and the backs of two hands covered with fluff and sharp claws. The other is a thorny-like creature with a hedgehog, but its head is more like a turtle, with two sharp horns, and the thorns on its back are shiny and palpitating.
Hiss –
The serpent-tailed creature was the first to attack, its body emitting a faint light, twisting it hard, and instantly rushing forward, its claws slashing into the air with five rays of light, slapping at the forehead of the hedgehog-like creature.
Although the other party resembled a hedgehog, there was no cowardly light in his eyes, but he was extremely brave, his whole body was covered with luminous light, his mind shrank, his body leaned forward, and the spikes on his back were displayed in front of the claw.
There was a shrill grinding sound, sharp claws brushing the spikes, and neither side was hurt, but only a tentative point.
After a breath, the two collided again, the light flickered, the two colors intertwined, and all kinds of sounds erupted in the air, roars, frictions, explosions, etc., and so on.
All kinds of ancient trees and vines around were torn to shreds, flowers and plants were also turned into powder, and the black and fertile land was even more devastating, and pieces were overturned one by one. But only that Zhu Huaguo was not harmed at all, and even the land not far from the surrounding area was very fine.
Gradually, these two farther and farther away, Zhang Linchen took the opportunity to step forward, observed the Quartet, and then reached out to take Zhu Huaguo off, at this time, he felt a gust of wind blowing on his face.
He subconsciously leaned to the side, and saw a big hand with black hair appear in front of him, and just as it was withdrawn, he grabbed the arm, clamped it tightly, and then shook it hard, and a black thing flew out and fell to the ground to form a small pit.
As soon as this thing hit the ground, it immediately jumped up and stood on the ground, it was a seven-foot-tall ape, its muscles bulging, its hair black and shiny, and its eyes were fierce.
"Looks like you're hiding it so well that I haven't even found out. Zhang Linchen put away Zhu Huaguo and looked directly at it.
This ape should have lurked here before him, waiting for the snipe to fight and the fisherman to profit, but he cut off his beard.
The black ape bared its teeth, with an angry expression on its face, and its body was steaming, and it quickly rushed over, turning into a black wind.
Zhang Linchen was surrounded by white light, and his fists were also shining, and he rushed over directly, and picked up his arm is a punch, which was very arrogant.
When the black ape saw that this person actually dared to fight with it, a smile flashed in his eyes, although he was thrown out by this person just now, but it was just an accidental move. If it is hard, at the same stage, it is not a vain at all, not to mention the petite human race in front of it, it is still very confident in its own physique.
Bang!
With a dull sound, the black ape was repelled several steps, but Zhang Linchen remained motionless like a mountain, his momentum was calm, his steps stepped forward, and he continued to attack.
A hint of consternation flashed in the black ape's eyes, it was forced back, it knew how powerful it was, and if it had enough time, it could break through a mountain.
Zhang Linchen's attacks came one after another, and the black ape flew up unconvinced, waving two powerful plush hands to counterattack and confront, and the two arms, one black and one white, were constantly intertwined and collided.
A series of sounds appeared, and in the shocked gaze of the black ape, it gradually fell into the wind, and various scars began to appear on its body. Its proud physical body is actually inferior to a human race, even if it is unwilling, the reality also makes it helpless.
So it wanted to get out and take the opportunity to use a powerful magical secret method, but Zhang Linchen couldn't let it get his wish and attack by sticking to its body. After a blow, it finally showed fear in its eyes, and it was wounded more and more, and faintly felt the breath of death.
In the end, Zhang Linchen said that he was not properly prepared, and slapped the black ape's chin, "click", its head tilted back, and its body flew out directly upside down, smashing an ancient tree that several people were hugging.
The black ape was motionless, his eyes were closed, as if he had passed out, Zhang Linchen looked at it from a distance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile, and he turned around and left quickly.
Feeling that the murderer was walking away, the black ape pretending to be unconscious opened one eye slightly, and slowly raised its head, and after seeing that the murderer around it was really gone, it couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but the pain all over its body still made it grin and try to stand up.
It was badly wounded, and although it didn't look like it had any injuries from the outside, it had broken bones on the inside, and its internal organs were concussed.
Just as it was about to leave, it saw a serpent-tailed creature and a hedgehog-like creature appear in the distance, looking at it with angry eyes. They were so desperate to get the fruit that they fought a great battle, and each of them was wounded, only to be stolen by a monkey, which was unbearable.
The black ape had an ominous premonition, and without hesitation, he turned around and ran, and the two creatures also hissed and immediately chased after him......
A month later, the yellow sand was thick, the sun was low, it was a dry land, there was not much life, and there was no life around.
Zhang Linchen walked here, there is a mountain range in the distance, and the front is a low mountain of hundreds of zhang, there is no green from a distance, and it is very dry and yellow.
It was not easy for him to come this way, and he was attacked by many strange beasts, but fortunately, he resolved them one by one, and obtained some old elixirs and elixirs of higher age, the best being Zhu Huaguo.
This fruit contains a large amount of essence, filled with silky essence, extremely extraordinary, Zhang Linchen decided to keep it for himself, and the rest was sold somewhere else.
"Let's rest here tonight!"
When he came to the foot of the low mountain, where the dead trees were overgrown, the barren grass was desolate, and there was no one to live, when he looked up, he suddenly found something different.
Halfway up the mountain, behind a dead tree branch, there seems to be a hidden building, but because the distance is a bit far, there are many things that obscure it, and the naked eye can see it limitedly, so it is not real.
He soon came to the halfway point of the mountain, a flat land, a crumbling wall, only a door frame, and after I don't know how many years, it still stood and was full of decay.
Through the almost collapsed wall, you can see at a glance that a small building is located in it, the gate is closed, and a breath of vicissitudes spreads.
"Anyone?"
Zhang Linchen stood outside the door frame and shouted inside, seeing that no one responded for a long time, he shouted a few more times, so he decided to go in and take a look, maybe he would rest here tonight.
As he was about to take a step, he saw a square object in the pile of rubble beside his feet, and he opened the stone and picked it up to look at it. This is a half-wooden plaque with two vague fonts on it, which are the words "Taoism".
"This turned out to be a Taoist temple, and it used to be the residence of hermits, but now it may be empty, and it is gradually decaying. ”
He waved away the rubble, but he couldn't find the other half of the plaque, which was probably damaged.
Walking to the door of the Taoist temple, Zhang Linchen knocked, waited for a while, and then pushed the door in.
What I saw was a humanoid stone statue, sitting cross-legged on a high platform, with his eyes slightly closed, his face serious, his hands pinched, and his body covered with dust.
There is an incense burner in front of the stone statue, the surface is full of rust, and there are three burned incense sticks inside.
The room is not big, the layout is extremely simple, you can see it at a glance, and there is a futon on the ground, which is very ordinary. But looking at the appearance of the futon, it is a little out of place with the surrounding environment, and it does not seem to be a period thing.
Another point is that, except for the dusty human figures, the rest of the Taoist temple is not so old, only a thin layer of floating dust. He thought for a moment, shook his head, and thought that it was useless to think more, but he just kept these details in mind.
"I can't let you be dusted, so let's clean it up!"
Zhang Linchen stepped on the table, the light in his hands surged, ready to clean.
Suddenly, he saw a piece of paper pasted on the back of the stone statue's head, and in curiosity, he took off the paper and looked at it, it turned out to be a picture scroll, but it was really a little scary inside.
Red clouds are all over the sky, evil spirits are scattered, the divine light is eternal, and it is eternal and desolate. Below was a sea of blood, in which countless bones fluttered, struggled, and floated, of different races. It can be seen that some of the corpses are obviously not from the same era, the clothing style is very different, and there are some weapons, swords, flags, spears and short knives, etc. There was a faint mist on the surface of the sea, scarlet like a sinister aura, and there seemed to be an eerie aura.
Zhang Linchen has been staring at the scroll and gradually fell into a trance, the surrounding desolation has been far away, he feels a little immersive, and he can't help but find himself standing on the shore, stepping on the red earth under his feet, as if watered by blood.
Looking at the boundless sea of blood in the distance, the bones fluttered, densely packed, and there were very huge bones sinking in the blood water in the distance, misty and hazy, drifting towards the shore.
Zhang Linchen looked behind him, there was a very large red mountain, it should not be a blood mountain, or a blood-colored tomb, because a crack in the mountain, which emitted an extremely rich evil aura, rose to the sky, it seemed that all the red in the sky came from it, it was unbelievable.
It's hard to imagine what is buried, and where is it?
Gradually, a figure appeared on the shore, muddy, and the blood on his face was extremely bleak. At this moment, Zhang Linchen felt that he had been hit, and when he looked closely, it turned out that a shadow had penetrated his body, making him have a strange feeling, and his whole body was cold to the bone.
Then, more figures crashed into his body, and each time he passed through, he felt a little weaker, which was amazing.
"Not good, there's a problem. ”‘
Zhang Linchen immediately reacted to Gu Lai, how could he have come to the world of the picture scroll, and it was so realistic, as if he had experienced it.
Just when his body was getting weaker and weaker, and he was helpless, nine villains full of boundless aura suddenly appeared, although their appearance was small, but there was a feeling that the heavens and the earth were crowded.
The nine villains were very transparent, with many spots on their bodies, and they swung their fists to bombard the entire sky, majestic and unstoppable. The sky began to stir, the wind and clouds surged, and even the sea of blood began to explode and annihilate, endless corpses disappeared, large cracks appeared in the void, and powerful suction erupted in the black hole. As soon as Zhang Linchen didn't pay attention, he was inhaled by this irresistible force, and his eyes turned black.
