167 Start moving

Huang Chang watched from afar for a while, guessing that the exercises practiced by the Black Wood Divine Monarch were probably not the traditional qi refining techniques, but related to the way of incense sacrifice - even if there was spiritual energy in a crowded place, it would inevitably be dirty, so most of the qi refining cultivators were far away from the world and lived in seclusion alone in a deserted place. On the contrary, cultivators who take the path of incense sacrifice often engage in rituals and sacrifices, all of which require the support of manpower and faith, and the more people there are, the easier it is to develop.

However, he was not interested in getting to the bottom of this, this time he came here to take revenge, what exercises the other party practiced, what immortal path he took, anyway, the result was the same.

After observing for a while, Huang Chang took out a longbow and a few phosphorus rockets from the Qiankun ring, and patted these old fellows with nostalgia - this was his favorite weapon before, but it was rarely used since the equipment was improved and Yicheng went down the mountain. And this time, Huang Chang plans to return to his old business.

He skillfully drew his bow and arrow, took a slight aim, and shot it out—in fact, it was okay not to aim, the target was too big to miss—and the phosphorus-powdered rocket burned in mid-air, drawing a shining arc of light, and finally landed on the roof of the shed.

Wooden fences, thatched walls, and reed mat roofs, whether the shack was a dwelling or a temple, it was obviously too simple for a master like Kuroki Shenjun. Huang Chang didn't know why the other party wanted to build his nest in such a "natural and environmentally friendly" way, but it didn't prevent him from making full use of this.

After the first phosphorus rocket was fired, it crackled and burned for a while, but the fire did not spread, and it actually extinguished itself soon after, which made Huang Chang a little surprised - it seems that the other party is not without fire awareness, and the shack is still a little weird. Although the material is grass and trees, it seems to be protected by magic.

However, Huang Chang is not discouraged, his phosphorus rocket is not ordinary, and the biggest advantage of having a magic weapon "Seal Talisman Treasure Mirror" is that it can manufacture a talisman at almost zero cost - every arrow in Huang Chang's hand is attached to a spell. Even if this kind of rocket is fired out, it will inevitably be destroyed.

The second and third phosphorus rockets were fired one after the other, burning in the air as before, and finally plunged into the roof of the shed with a roaring flame. But this time, Huang Chang didn't expect them to rely on their own strength to slowly ignite the surrounding ignitions, but directly activated the spell on the arrow, and fully activated the burning ability of the phosphorus rocket with the fastest efficiency.

"Boom" twice, two fireballs exploded on the roof of the shed, but the bright flames were soon drowned out by the black gas surging from all sides - the violent explosion also attracted violent suppression, the shed was indeed protected by magic, it seemed to be some kind of yin qi, which could also extinguish the open fire while absorbing energy.

But any protection has its limit, Huang Chang then shot more than ten arrows in a very short period of time, and more than ten fireballs exploded in various positions on the shack one after another, and the first few times they were shrouded and extinguished by the black gas, but later, the black gas was obviously becoming more and more insufficient, and the reaction was getting slower and slower. Eventually, fires of all sizes began to rise all over the shack, and the house finally burned.

And in the process, the whole village began to make noise like an ant nest doused with boiling water. Many villagers ran out of their homes shouting, and they could easily see the attacker - Huang Chang had no intention of hiding his body at all, standing on a high guard tower on the edge of the village, shooting arrows in a hurry.

Even though there were many people with swords, spears, bows and crossbows rushing towards him, Huang Chang didn't pay any attention to these mortals at all. With a few flicks of his palm, several runic shields rose at his side, circling and flying around him, blocking the arrows or spears that were fired at him.

As for the few who thought they were good at it, and tried to climb up with a knife in their mouths and wanted to fight in close combat, they were all kicked down by Huang Chang one by one. In the process, Huang Chang was still shooting arrows, and those people couldn't even interfere with him.

But even ordinary mortals reacted, but the owner of the shack remained silent...... This seems a bit weird, but since the other party doesn't show his head, Huang Chang doesn't change, just keeps shooting rockets at the target one by one. The hut's fire prevention measures had completely failed, and the dry grass and trees soon burst into flames, illuminating the dark night sky.

Finally, with a boom, the roof of the burned shed collapsed, along with the surrounding grass wall. The scene inside the house was immediately exposed - empty, no one, Huang Chang seemed to be attacking only an empty house.

"Huh, could it be bad luck that guy happened to be not at home?"

Huang Chang was stunned, and the movements of his hands unconsciously slowed down - because he had a relatively high evaluation of the strength of this Black Wood Divine Monarch, and he didn't know what strange methods he had, Huang Chang hadn't rashly approached the other party's lair before. But from a distance, using this way of "scaring the grass and startling the snake", I want the other party to jump out by myself.

Of course, he didn't expect a few rockets to injure a monk at least mid-stage or above, and burning down the grass shed probably wouldn't cause much trouble to the other party. But in any case, if it is the head of the village who is knocked on the door and burns down the house, even if it is just to save face, he will definitely react.

When the time comes, lure people to the wild to fight, so as not to have any arrangements next to their own lair - since the battle of the Salvation Sect, Huang Chang has been more taboo about opponents who have altars, and God knows what kind of moths these pretending to be ghosts will make.

But if the other party is not at home at all, all this calculation is meaningless. And this can be described as a real "scare snake", that guy has a guard, and it will not be easy to raid him next time......

While he was thinking about it, Huang Chang suddenly felt a movement in his heart—it was the kind of dangerous intuition that cultivators often have, an instinctive sense of crisis that prompted him to jump up and look down at his feet at the same time......

A few long, thin strands of black hair were passing under his feet, not fast at first, and seemingly unthreatening. But as Huang Chang jumped to dodge, the thin line suddenly increased in speed and rolled towards his ankle.

Huang Chang did not hesitate, jumped off the high platform, but when he jumped into the air, he suddenly became alert, and pulled out a long knife with his backhand and put it in front of him, and then only heard a few soft sounds, and the sound of silk strings breaking came one after another in mid-air - around this small lookout, I don't know when it has been surrounded by that kind of black silk thread, and it is completely invisible in the dark night.

As for the effect of those silk threads - after Huang Chang landed on the ground, he saw that several villagers who had been kicked down by him before were all lying on the ground crookedly at this moment, and there was no longer life.
