Chapter 673: Shadow Rat Weasel
For this situation, Yu Dongbao and others seem to have been prepared for a long time. Directly threw out a few grass-green snake-like things, but several powerful demon python qi blew away like a whirlwind.
Those mud frogs felt this demon python breath and immediately burrowed into the swamp in shock. The scene of mud frogs surging in front of him immediately disappeared.
"Hurry up, this python vine can only last for half a pillar of incense. Yu Dongbao snorted, and suddenly began to accelerate, and his body was like electricity.
Lu Xiaotian followed closely, and sure enough, as soon as the time of the half-pillar incense passed, there was a commotion on the swamp again, and in addition to the mud frogs, there were some more annoying monsters such as demon flies and demon sparrows. Especially the demon fly, although the body size is not big, it is dense, but those mud frogs seem to have found a new target, and they no longer stare at Lu Xiaotian and the others. Demon mud frogs leap up from the swamp with a cry of joy, devouring the demon flies buzzing in the air.
However, the number of demon flies is too much, and Lu Xiaotian and the others have gathered a lot around them, Yu Dongbao, Shao Zixia and others have put up a talisman spirit cover to keep those demon flies out.
Lu Xiaotian also did the same, in fact, these low-level demon flies, with Lu Xiaotian's physical defense at this time, it was even difficult for these low-level demon flies to break through his physical defense. Of course, it was too much to be surrounded by these low-level demon flies and sting indiscriminately.
It didn't take long to fly, in this barren swamp, where the fog loomed, a sparse forest appeared, and in this sparse forest, the original breath that made people's hearts sway seemed to be even stronger, even after taking the Soul Fixing Pill, there was also a feeling of discomfort. If it weren't for taking the pill, I'm afraid that the Jindan monk wouldn't be able to stay in this kind of place for a long time, and the Yuan Shen was as strong as Lu Xiaotian, and he couldn't help but be secretly frightened at this time.
Yu Dongbao still took the lead, landed in front of the grove, and then glanced at Shao Zixia and Mu Zixin and said, "The rest depends on the two of you, move quickly, and the aura here is even more weird." ”
"Don't worry, you won't be delayed. Mu Zixin nodded, glanced at Shao Zixia, and each took out a palm-sized jade cicada, although the jade cicada was carved with jade, it was like a living thing. Lifelike, with a spread of palms, the jade cicada fluttered its wings and flew up, and the two jade dark crossed the green trajectory in the air.
Knowing this, he screamed a few times, and with a hum, the sparse woods in front of him changed slightly, and the faint mist flowed like water in all directions, as if a door had been opened, revealing a low thatched hut inside.
"Let's go. Huo Ying looked excited, and this time he didn't wait for Yu Dongbao to speak, and shot forward. Sink into a low hut.
Mu Zixin followed closely and entered.
Lu Xiaotian didn't talk nonsense, the third one entered the hut, squeaked, and after the last Yu Dongbao came in, the door of the hut seemed to close again.
After entering the hut, Lu Xiaotian found that there was something else inside. A narrow passage covered with moss, on which many low-level demon vines climbed, after winding for hundreds of zhang, turned out to be a completely new place, and the gray overhead was also covered with mossy rocks. In some places, it is only as high as a person, and in some places, the stone wall above the head is as high as dozens of zhang, or even hundreds of zhang. There is standing water in many depressions on the ground, and water occasionally drips out of the cracks in the stone walls overhead.
The light was very dim.
Farther away, there was a sparse sound of footsteps, and a few panicked sounds.
"There were other people coming. "Huo Ying and the others are like facing a great enemy, and it is not easier to meet other monks in this kind of place than to encounter demon beasts. Outside, several of them are children of the immortal cultivation family, and when there are many people, even if the other monks have bad intentions, they will be somewhat afraid of the forces behind them and dare not act easily, but in this kind of place called heaven and earth, there will not even be a person to collect the corpse if they die.
"Quick, run!"
"Woo----" In the deep stone cave, a mournful voice sounded.
Mu Zixin and Shao Zixia, two female cultivators, were a little resistant to this kind of poignant voice by nature, and the two unconsciously got closer and hung at the back of the team.
Lu Xiaotian's divine sense searched and first found that the four monks were fleeing towards this side in a panic.
The poignant voice sounded again, and two black shadows flashed.
Ah----- in the midst of the screams of the seeping people, one arm of a thin old man who fled to the back suddenly left his body, and where the arm was broken, blood flowed everywhere, and there were two rows of fine tooth marks.
The injured thin old man's body stumbled a few times, and his speed was greatly affected.
"A few fellow Daoists, the demon beasts here are too terrifying, let's join forces to have hope of fighting the enemy!" The man in the purple turban at the head finally showed a little joy on his panicked face when he saw Yu Dongbao and his party. Behind him were a pair of young twin siblings, very close in appearance.
As for the thin old man, he had been thrown to the ground by the demon beast at this time, no matter how he struggled, he couldn't get up again, Yu Dongbao and the others looked intently, and could only see a few gray shadows, jumping back and forth in the originally dark vision, surrounding the thin old man for a while, the speed was amazingly fast, three times five divided by two, the thin old man was directly divided by those gray shadows.
"It's so fast. I didn't encounter such a terrible monster last time. Seeing the tragic death of a thin old man, a Jindan monk, Mu Zixin and the others shuddered.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes were sharp, his divine sense was far more powerful than these people present, and after taking a closer look, he found that these gray shadows turned out to be a rat-like existence, with two round ears close to the size of the head, black and round, but the fierce eyes were all on the ground with two hind feet, with extremely sharp claws on the forelimbs, and extremely sharp teeth. In the fierce eyes, there was cunning.
There was such an evil monster here, Lu Xiaotian quickly remembered that he had seen another demon beast named Nan Pu Zhenren mentioned in the Demon Beast Sights and Stories Record, which was extremely fast, small and brutal, and extremely strong in attack. The group can be large or small, with a litter of three or five small ones and dozens of large ones. However, the shadow rat ferrets seen in front of me are obviously slightly larger than the rumored ones, perhaps because of the changes in this special environment.
"This is the Shadow Weasel Snake, which is extremely fast, and once dispersed, it is very easy to be broken by each of them, so everyone forms a circle and does not want to be left alone. Lu Xiaotian said a word and stood in the middle of the team.
"Shadow Weasel, it's such an evil thing, I really can't be careless. Yu Dongbao hadn't been able to see it completely at this time, and glanced at Lu Xiaotian in surprise, several of them, including Huo Ying, couldn't see the origin of this monster, but they only saw a few faint gray shadows, but thinking of the rumors about the shadow rat weasel, this cry was quite similar. So he chose to believe what Lu Xiaotian said, took a few steps back, and stood with Shao Zixia, Lu Xiaotian and others.
Lu Xiaotian very consciously shrank in the middle of the team, so that the danger was minimal.
Woo-----
The cry of the shadow mouse weasel sounded again, but the purple turban man who escaped before, as well as the pair of twin brothers and sisters, heard Lu Xiaotian's reminder at this time, and also chose the three of them to stand back to back, standing quite close to Yu Dongbao and the others, and they could stabilize their positions.
Whoosh, Mu Zixin stretched out his hand and shook it, hitting a thin turquoise net, the thin net was soft, but the speed was not slow, and it passed towards a gray shadow cover in it, but the speed of the shadow mouse weasel was a little faster, and when the green net was cast, it quickly avoided it. fiercely pounced on Mu Zixin.
Seeing this, Huo Ying opened his mouth and spit out two eagle claw-shaped magic weapons, and his left and right hands, which were as flexible as people, grabbed at the gray shadow one after another, although he grabbed an empty one, but it temporarily blocked the attack of the shadow rat weasel.
"These animals are very fast. ”
The three men in the purple turban were each leaning against each other, and Huo Ying, Yu Dongbao, Lu Xiaotian and others were in a horn trend.
But in the blink of an eye, two more shadow weasels popped out in the distance, adding up to five together, and the speed was extremely fast, rushing around everyone.
Lu Xiaotian and Mu Zixin each surrounded a circle that was not big or small. Lu Xiaotian sacrificed the Earth Splitting Knife to block the shadow weasel that rushed over, but compared to several others, Lu Xiaotian did not show much strength, and the power inspired by the Earth Splitting Knife was relatively limited. For a while, Lu Xiaotian's attacks suddenly increased.
These animals will also pick soft persimmons to pinch, Lu Xiaotian was speechless for a while, he didn't want to steal the limelight of Huo Ying and a few people in this kind of fighting, with his style of keeping quiet and obscure, in addition, he came this time, in the eyes of everyone, the first priority is alchemy, an alchemist, a more normal monk, is a little weaker in terms of fighting methods. It's understandable that he's a little lazy. But I didn't expect these shadow weasels to be so cunning.
In the face of the two shadow weasels that attacked at the same time, the earth-splitting knife flashed with golden light, and the blade instantly sharpened a lot, and the golden blade shook strangely and quickly in the air, slashing at the two shadow weasels at the same time, and the cold blade shadow weasel brought a deadly threat. Both the sharpness of the blade and the trajectory of the slash are blocked in the path of the Shadow Weasel Rat's forward attack.
The two shadow weasel monsters screamed and retreated. Huo Ying saw the opportunity and controlled the eagle's claw-shaped magic weapon to grab it from the flank, grabbing a piece of skin and flesh from the retreating shadow weasel rat.
The injured shadow weasel screamed angrily, and actually counted the account just now on Lu Xiaotian and Huo Ying.
Lu Xiaotian suffered more attacks again, and Huo Ying, who was a late-stage Jindan monk, was able to deal with the attacks of the shadow weasel with ease. The pressure on the other people suddenly lightened, and the look of surprise in Yu Dongbao's eyes became more and more intense, he was a little surprised that Lu Xiaotian was so old that he was confident that he could refine the Treasure Soul Pill, and Lu Xiaotian had not shown anything abnormal before, but he was not a mediocre person, how could he not see how fierce Lu Xiaotian was in dealing with the counterattack of the two shadow weasels at the same time just now.
Forcing back these two demon beasts at the same time, it seems to be a light blow, but it also seals the attack path of the two shadow weasels at the same time, which requires not only the high strength of mana, but also the incomparably accurate judgment in the fighting method. Yu Dongbao didn't know if Lu Xiaotian was blind, which only those old and spicy late-stage monks could do. How to achieve the best results with less mana. Yu Dongbao had only seen it when the late-stage monks of the family, who had been in the knot for hundreds of years, were fighting with their peers.
At this time, Lu Xiaotian actually showed that kind of understatement under the danger, which inevitably made people suspicious of this alchemist with a mysterious origin. On a whim, Yu Dongbao was a little tentative. It's a little slower to start.
At the same time that the Qingyue knife he swung out was a few points slower, he found that Shao Zixia's movements were also half a beat slower for no reason. looked towards Shao Zixia, and when they met Shao Zixia's eyes, the two of them smiled heartily.
Lu Xiaotian didn't see the mood fluctuations of the two, but the movements of the two of them slowed down a little for no reason, and Huo Ying showed an attitude of only holding back on the side, taking advantage of the cheap, and guarding if it was not cheap. The pressure on Lu Xiaotian suddenly increased a lot.
The corners of Lu Xiaotian's mouth twitched, although the attacks of these shadow weasels were fast, he was not unable to deal with them, but he was not used to being wronged. As for the two monsters that pounced again, Lu Xiaotian directly took two steps back, and suddenly a small defensive circle formed by the five people revealed a gap.
Huo Ying, Yu Dongbao and several people were startled at the same time, separated by a certain distance, under the joint efforts of several people, as long as the shadow weasel was not killed, a few monsters naturally could not form much of a threat, but once they were approached by the shadow weasel and killed closely, with the terrible speed of the shadow weasel, coupled with the not weak attack power, it was enough to pose a fatal threat to them, even Huo Ying in the late stage of Jindan was scared out of a cold sweat, and couldn't help shouting angrily, "What do you want to do, do you want to die?"
"I'm just an alchemist, do you still expect to let me be the first to go when I encounter a demon beast?" Lu Xiaotian replied unceremoniously.
"Forget it, forget it, Brother Lu is right, I was also negligent just now. Yu Dongbao's Qingyue Knife flashed a cyan cold light, and in the blink of an eye, it was filled within a radius of dozens of zhang.
Shao Zixia wasted no time in reaching out and sprinkling a large puff of crystalline green powder.
That's a good idea. Lu Xiaotian immediately reacted, what idea did Yu Dongbao and Shao Zixia have, the reaction speed of these two people is not slow.
No matter how fast the shadow weasel wase, it couldn't escape from the area that enveloped a radius of dozens of feet in an instant. A lot of green powder fell on the bodies of a few shadow weasels, and several shadow weasels rolled on the ground, trembling all over, and they couldn't get the green powder off their bodies completely.
For a while, the five shadow weasels were covered in green light, losing their previous mystery, even if they moved fast, but there were eight Jindan monks present, each of whom sacrificed their own magic weapons to block the front and back, and it didn't take much effort to block the advance and retreat of the shadow weasels. The first to be slain was the one that had been wounded earlier, and as the number of shadow weasels dwindled, the advantage of the monks was further magnified.
A moment later, several shadow weasels were slain.
"Thank you for your help, if it weren't for your help, we would have fallen under the claws of this monster at this time. After killing the demon rat, Huo Ying and Yu Dongbao, the purple turban man led by him, thanked him.
"You're welcome, when you meet a demon beast, as a person who is a fairy, it is the right thing to take a hand. Yu Dongbao nodded politely, and then said, "If it's okay, let's say goodbye and see you again in the future." ”
