Volume 1: Kitazawa Volume Chapter 43: Swamp Rush
"Whew....." The two barbarian wolf cavalry kept chasing behind Ye Xuan, the ground in the swamp was complicated and easy to sink into, and the speed of the giant wolf slowed down a lot.
At the same time, Ye Xuan's speed of holding Liu Ran also decreased, if he had divine soul power, he would be able to find out the location of the swamp pit and it would be unimpeded, but unfortunately he couldn't use it now.
Whenever the giant wolf fell into the swamp, Ye Xuan would stop and shoot arrows at them, although the power of the feather bow was not enough to kill them, it could hurt them, there was no divine soul power to aim at Ye Xuan's head dropped a lot, just aiming hard to create some threats and not let them follow too closely.
"Plop ......" Ye Xuan suddenly weakened under his feet, one leg fell into the swamp, and Liu Ran also fell to the ground and was woken up.
"Oh no!" Ye Xuan secretly screamed, took out two chains and shot them into the distance, plunged into the ground, and tried to pull himself out of the swamp by dragging the chains. However, in just two breaths, the distance between the wolf cavalry and itself was reduced by half.
"Run, leave me alone. Liu Ran lay motionless on the ground, she didn't even have the strength to stand up. Ye Xuan remembered that she had said a long time ago that her current strength was not complete, and she could only summon a pair of wings of the war spirit to come out.
This time, I don't know what happened to summon a full-body war spirit, and it is possible that her body has caused a lot of damage.
"What are you talking about, let's go together!" Ye Xuan picked up Liu Ran and ran wildly again, which reminded him of the time when he practiced physical fitness by himself, when he was running wildly on the mountain with more than a hundred catties of iron armor on his back. Unlike the situation at the time, it was very slow.
However, now he is really running with the strength of breastfeeding, and this high-frequency exercise makes his lungs breathe a little out of rhythm.
"Hold on to me!" Ye Xuan tied Liu Ran to his body with an iron chain, tying her to the ground to make sure she wouldn't fall off. The wolf rider behind him was only a hundred steps away from him, and it was only a matter of a moment to catch up, Ye Xuan had to make sure that his speed was raised.
Liu Ran hugged Ye Xuan tightly in fear, and his palm inadvertently touched Ye Xuan's chest, feeling that his heart was beating too fast, could his body withstand such a beat? At the same time, Ye Xuan's body was very hot, and Liu Ran was tied up almost against Ye Xuan's back, and he could feel the heat.
"Hold on!" Ye Xuan took a deep breath and threw two chains stuck on the vines in the swamp, where there were many such plants. The arm pulled hard, the lower limb jumped up with force, and forcibly pulled himself out like a swing and flew far away.
After freeing his hands, Ye Xuan came up with this solution, he had to give himself a time to breathe, otherwise his blood vessels might burst. Although this method can make one's speed faster, at the same time, one's arms must bear a huge amount of force, which is no less intense than pulling the bow ten times in a row.
The wolf riders behind them were still chasing, and they didn't want to give up yet.
Ye Xuan's speed was already on par with them, and the original chase suddenly turned into an endurance race. And the swamp has become deeper and deeper, and now it is night, and the light of the moonlight cannot penetrate here at all, and the darkness in front of him is extremely incomparable. Even so, Ye Xuan still ran desperately, and he didn't know how many times he fell and how much mud he ate in his mouth.
Liu Ran hugged Ye Xuan in fear, and several times he had already felt the breath of the giant wolf behind him, but he was distanced by Ye Xuan. It was so dark that I couldn't see anything. Maybe something suddenly appeared from the darkness to attack them, Ye Xuan couldn't say, but at least it was better than the giant wolf behind, once they were caught up, there was only one way to die.
Ye Xuan ran desperately like this, the frequency of his heart beating had exceeded his limit, and his body was extremely hot and had begun to ooze nosebleeds.
"Ye Xuan, if you go on like this, you will die, let me down!" Liu Ran begged with tears in his eyes, he didn't want to watch Ye Xuan's heart burst and die.
Ye Xuan had no vitality and could not rely on his vitality to enhance his physical strength, such a high-intensity rush was a great test for anyone, especially for someone like him who cultivated his physical body.
"I said I must take you away! It will be fine, believe me!" Ye Xuan gasped, comforting Liu Ran as much as possible. It was a test of endurance, and he and the wolf riders had concerns. The wolf rider was afraid of going too deep and dangerous, while Ye Xuan was worried that he wouldn't be able to get out.
Therefore, Ye Xuan has an advantage in this chase.
"Woo......"
I don't know how long it took for Ye Xuan to hear the wolf rider behind him whimper, and his crimson eyes stopped in the darkness and didn't move forward, they didn't chase anymore! But one of the wolf riders took out a bow and arrow and aimed it at Ye Xuan, who was running wildly, the arrow of the long sword was black and poisonous!
Ye Xuan couldn't see the situation behind him at all, he only knew that they were not chasing, and he wanted to speed up and get rid of them and open a suitable distance. As soon as this thought flashed, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking wind, and his nerves instantly tensed and jumped to the side, and he fell to the foul-smelling mud.
"Whoosh!"
The speed of the arrow was extremely fast, and even if Ye Xuan reacted quickly, he couldn't dodge it, because he still had Liu Ran on his back. The moment Liu Ran fell to the ground, she suddenly felt a pain in her legs, and found that an arrow had cut through her calf, and the pain in her heart made Liu Ran, who was already weak, almost faint, but she didn't dare to say that it hurt, and she was not safe.
The arrow didn't pierce it but only scratched, it shouldn't be a big problem, Liu Ran comforted himself.
"Are you okay?" Ye Xuan asked with a big gasp, and immediately got up and ran out.
"It's okay!" Liu Ran endured the pain and spit out these two words, feeling more and more dizzy. Ye Xuan sped up and got rid of the wolf rider, and after running for a distance again, he slowed down and tried to slow down his heartbeat, if he continued like this, his heart would really not be able to bear it, because the next thing he would face was this whole swamp.
The danger of this place is no less than that of the Snow Spirit Python at the entrance of the Medicine Spirit Valley, and more than a hundred people have died in it. Ye Xuan gasped and took out his weapon, the Flame Feather Bow in his left hand and the Ghost Tooth Sword in his right hand. The Flame Feather Bow originally had the function of lighting, releasing raging flames, and Ye Xuan saw the surrounding situation clearly.
I don't know if I don't see it, I am shocked when I see it, the ground is full of rotting animal corpses.
The surrounding trees and vines provided a good place of refuge for the poison, and Ye Xuan didn't dare to stay and run at all. However, it backfired, Liu Ran's calf continued to bleed, and the fresh blood attracted more and more poisons.
However, both the Flame Feather Bow and the Ghost Tooth Sword had the remnants of the Phoenix Divine Flame's Yang Aura, and they didn't dare to get too close.
"Click......"
Just as Ye Xuan was speeding up, he suddenly heard a strange sound in front of him, and when he fixed his eyes, he found that a huge brown centipede was crawling towards him, and the bone joints on its back were clicking and steaming with purple liquid, emitting a foul smell. It was also attracted by Liu Ran's blood, it was a spirit beast, and its strength was reasonable, and it was its predatory ground nearby, so it was bolder, and it was no longer afraid of the Yang Qi on the Fierce Feather Bow and the Ghost Tooth Sword.
"Give it to me, get out!"
Ye Xuan had run out of patience at this moment, he just wanted to escape from this swamp as soon as possible, and it was impossible for him to have a good temper in the face of such an obstruction. Wielding the ghost tooth sword, he jumped up, and gathered all his strength on the long sword to cut down the huge centipede.
"Buzz!"
A strange tearing aura shattered the centipede's shell in an instant, and then the sharp sword fell and split the snake's head in half with a single blow. At the same time, Ye Xuan's huge brute force fused with the sword qi to form a momentum like a bamboo, and he actually split the entire centipede into two, and his movements were clean and neat.
Ye Xuan saw that this centipede no longer moved, and immediately stepped up his speed to escape, this kind of place can't be brought for a moment, maybe the next time it comes out is a high-grade spirit beast, his current strength is okay to fight a first-grade spirit beast, and there is no divine soul power to fight with a second-grade spirit beast at most a tie. And there is also a Liu Ran on his back, which is not very convenient to move, so he must be careful.
And all he has to do now is to slow down his heart rate, if he continues like this, he will not be able to bear it, and his body is as hot as a charcoal fire.
"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"
In the dark, Ye Xuan broke through the swamp through thorns and thorns, and talked to Liu Ran from time to time to prevent her from falling asleep. It is both to comfort her and to relax herself, after all, it is still scary to walk in such darkness. Liu Ran curled up on Ye Xuan's back and tried not to sleep, the arrow seemed to be poisonous, she could feel a cold force that had penetrated into her body, Liu Ran could no longer feel her right leg, as if she was unconscious.
"It's so cold......" Even Ye Xuan and Liu Ran, who were holding it like a charcoal fire, still felt very cold, this kind of coldness did not come from the physical but from the psychological, she was very afraid that she would die like this. The swamp still has no end, and there is no end to the darkness ahead.
"Don't be afraid when I'm here, I'll be able to go out soon, you insist on it, believe me. Ye Xuan kept comforting Liu Ran, and couldn't help but speed up his pace. Although the speed was not much different from before, but without that feeling of tension, Ye Xuan felt a lot more relaxed, and his breathing gradually stabilized, and he began to adapt to this high-intensity rush.
But Liu Ran's consciousness began to blur and gradually blurred, since she was hit by that arrow, she wanted to sleep, if it wasn't for Ye Xuan who had been talking to her, she would probably have fallen asleep.
"Right away, believe me!" Running Ye Xuan suddenly saw a moonlight shining on the vines above his head, indicating that the vines were beginning to decrease, and he was about to cross over.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but speed up his pace, there was about half a burnt incense, and when Ye Xuan cut off the last tree and vine barrier, he saw the starlight in the sky outside.
"Liu Ran, look, we're out!" Ye Xuan shouted excitedly, struggling to take the seriously injured Liu Ran out of the swamp and step into the starlight step by step.
"Finally...... Did you come out?" Liu Ran forcibly opened his eyes and looked at the starlight in the sky, tears gushed out uncontrollably, and finally escaped.
Ye Xuan finally got off his strength and knelt on the ground, as if his legs were no longer his own.
"Look, I said it, you'll be fine!" Ye Xuan gasped and wiped the mud off his face, finding that his body was extremely foul, and he didn't know how many times he had fallen in the swamp.
"We're going to find a place to rest, and if you hold on a little longer, we'll let you go. Ye Xuan struggled to get up, holding the Ghost Tooth Sword and forcibly propping himself up and walking forward. But this time Liu Ran didn't answer him, and when he came back, Liu Ran had already fainted, and his lips were purple.
"Poisoned?" Ye Xuan hurriedly untied the chain and put Liu Ran off his back, seeing that the clothes on her calf were torn, and when he opened it, he saw that there was a blackened wound, could it be that she was hit by the arrow shot by the wolf rider just now? Or was she injured by the poison in the swamp?
"Trouble. No matter how Ye Xuan called Liu Ran, there was no way to wake him up, and it seemed that he could only find a solution as soon as possible. Ye Xuan tore off the fairly clean clothes on her body, treated her wound briefly and continued to hurry, it is not completely safe yet, since the barbarian can teleport, there must be more than one place.
You can't stop yet, you have to find a safe place to shelter.
Under the starlight, a boy ran the wasteland with a figure in his arms, falling down again and again, but getting up again and again until the sky was bright......
