Volume 1: Kitazawa Volume Chapter 28: Hunting
The news that Ye Xuan and the three of them were going to crusade against the spirit beast alone spread quickly, and suddenly a group of people gathered in the mountain pass to watch the excitement.
The largest crusade before was a total of four mercenary groups, and the number of participants was more than 400 people, all of whom were strong in the middle stage of the Spirit Realm or above, but they were only seriously injured. Now there are only three people here, isn't this just going to die?
Mountaintop.
Ye Xuan stood at the highest place with a wide field of vision and watched for a long time, the sun was about to set, and he was waiting.
The pass is slanted, and sunlight only hits that area when the sun is about to set. Because it is a valley, the energy is piled up in fog and is easy to hide. Those mercenary groups just suffered a big loss of terrain.
Moreover, this snow spirit python has many snake caves, moving back and forth makes it difficult to attack, Ye Xuan is trying to figure out how to lure the spirit beast out of the mountain pass and prevent it from returning to the cave.
After all, it is a four-grade spirit animal, and even if it is injured, it should not be underestimated.
"How's it going?" Tian Yueyu stood next to Ye Xuan, her eyes reflecting the sunset glowing with a golden luster. She is ready, her strength has been adjusted to the best, and she is ready to do it at any time.
"Right now. Ye Xuan looked at the white mist and stretched out his left hand, the phoenix pattern flashed and turned into a feather bow, which was held in his hand, and the bowstring vibrated slightly, making an excited phoenix sound. The lines on the back of the right hand stretched out to the palm of the hand, and three crimson arrows appeared.
It was forged from ore from the magma underground, each one as powerful as the arrow he had hunted the Snow Wolf King, and even harder and sharper. It can barely withstand the power of the Flame Feather Bow, after all, this weapon is specially designed to hunt barbarians, and its lethality is amazing.
In a short time, the light of the setting sun spread over the white mist, and little by little, the mist dissipated, revealing a huge boulder rising in the mist, covered with black moss. There was not much time left for them, only about half an hour, and they had to finish the hunt in half an hour.
"Then what should they do?" Tian Yueyu looked at the group of people from the Thunder Eagle Mercenary Group behind him, they had been watching with both expectation and eagerness.
If they can defeat the Snow Spirit Python, they will have a chance to enter the Medicine Spirit Valley first and be able to get more resources. But now, they didn't have the will to fight, they were just watching, obviously not having much confidence in Ye Xuan and the others.
"Actually, to be honest, I don't think there's much hope. Ye Xuan said lightly: "But we have to play the momentum out and make them believe that we can win, and we still need their help." ”
"So do you have any good tactics now? The fog is about to lift, and we only have half an hour. Liu Ran said while nibbling on a wild fruit in one hand, and he didn't know where he got it.
"You take this, I can use this thing to clearly feel where you are, and if the fog is too big, I can show you the way. Ye Xuan took out a metal bracelet with his soul mark on it.
"What is this?" Liu Ran took and looked at it curiously.
"There is my soul mark on it, I can clearly feel your position, I have divine soul power. ”
"Wow, the machine spirit master!" Liu Ran looked at Ye Xuan in surprise: "I didn't expect that there are machine spirit masters in this small place of yours!"
"Not yet, not that powerful. Ye Xuan shook his head.
"No, no, no, it will be. Being able to create this kind of thing is already considered a machine spirit master, but it lacks some instrument patterns. Liu Ran also seems to understand some of these things, which are similar to what Tian Yueyu said before.
"Accept your auspicious words, get ready!" Ye Xuan smiled and took out the arrow and pulled the bow on the string, and the flames ignited by the three crimson arrow arrows.
"Flame Feather Bow?" Liu Ran said in a low voice, recognizing the bow and arrow in Ye Xuan's hand at a glance.
"Whoosh!" The arrow broke through the air and shot into the white mist in a triangular shape, and after disappearing into it, it instantly burned into flames, removing the white mist with a very fast speed.
"Whoosh!" Ye Xuan shot dozens of arrows in a row to draw a large circle, dispelling most of the white mist inside, exposing the internal situation and completely liberating his vision. He must have ample vision when standing on a high place so that he can use his abilities to the fullest.
"Up!" Ye Xuan said in a low voice.
"Then be careful yourself!" Liu Ran drew the iron sword at his waist very simply, jumped down from the top of the mountain and jumped into the white mist, completely trusting Ye Xuan's judgment.
"Be careful, if you can't get out. When Tian Yueyu was about to jump down, Ye Xuan admonished, and he didn't know if he heard Tian Yueyu jump directly and fell into the clearing.
The hunt begins!
Ye Xuan's divine soul power standing on the top of the mountain spread to the maximum and flew into the sky, looking down at the mountain pass under his feet. If it was facing a group of people, this spirit beast might be a little afraid, but now there were only two Ye Xuan felt that even if this spirit beast was seriously injured, it would not be able to be timid.
Spirit animals have a strong sense of territory.
"I'll put out the flames first, be careful. Tian Yueyu's earrings and the bracelet on Liu Ran's hand vibrate, and Ye Xuan's voice of reminder came out.
"Wow, can you still use your soul power like this?" Liu Ran looked at the bracelet in surprise, and now found some peerless treasure.
And Tian Yueyu glanced at Liu Ran like a fool.
Soon the flames on those arrows were extinguished, and the white mist did not recover quickly due to the sunlight, and the field was still the same.
Ye Xuan moved down a distance, allowing his divine soul power to penetrate into that white mist. Each arrow on it has its own soul carving, and as long as something passes through those arrows, he can feel it, and he can feed it back to his divine soul.
The next thing he had to do was wait.
In the white mist, Tian Yueyu and Liu Ran each held their long swords back to back and pointed in front of them, exchanging positions from time to time.
"If you wear men's clothes, don't you hide the fragrance on your body first?" Tian Yueyu said in a low voice, she found out that Liu Ran's identity was wrong from the beginning, she was a woman.
"Oh, this was all discovered by you, sister, I thought I hid it well enough. Liu Ran's voice suddenly changed and became gentle, making people feel like a spring breeze as if it was a kind of enjoyment. It's just that Tian Yueyu is also a woman, and she doesn't eat this set.
"If you become a boy, it will be very convenient to do things, and there will be less constraints. Liu Ran was quick and straightforward to explain the reason why he wore men's clothes.
"Where are you from?"
"South!"
As soon as Liu Ran finished saying this, the two of them felt a cold aura slowly approaching at the same time, and subconsciously held the long sword in their hands.
"It's coming, east!" Ye Xuan instantly locked onto a moving object in the white mist, and he had just touched his arrow to feed back the information.
"Hiss ......"
"Whoosh!" Ye Xuan shot an arrow preemptively, and a golden light crossed the sky and fell into the white mist, hitting an object accurately.
"Roaring ......"
Immediately, a roar of pain came from within the white mist, resounding through the valley. A hurricane accompanied by a roar that made the people watching take a step back, and this roar reminded them of the terrifying python.
"Bring him into my circle of flames!" Ye Xuan suddenly changed his tactics, and when he shot the second arrow, the giant snake suddenly disappeared in the towering boulders, and it was difficult to find it.
"I'll drive it away!" Liu Ran volunteered to raise his long sword and instantly rushed into the white mist.
"Due east, twenty meters away. Whenever the giant snake touched those arrows, Ye Xuan would calculate the distance according to their location and report it to Tian Yueyu and Liu Ran. As soon as Liu Ran rushed into the white mist, he approached as fast as an elf, not far from the Snow Spirit Python.
"See!" In the mist, Liu Ran vaguely saw a huge object crawling there, and at the same time saw a pair of crimson eyes shining in the mist, and it also saw itself.
"Be careful, it's right in front of you!" Ye Xuan felt that the distance between the two people was too close, and he drew his bow and aimed it at that area, but he didn't dare to shoot an arrow after pulling the bow.
That area was still shrouded in white mist, and Ye Xuan was afraid of injuring Liu Ran by mistake. The power of the Flame Feather Bow cannot be underestimated, and ordinary first-grade spirit beasts are killed with one blow.
However, Liu Ran rushed forward directly instead of advancing, and the iron sword in his hand suddenly began to vibrate wildly, and a simple vitality spread out from the sword like an ancient warrior.
Liu Ran's whole body vitality was pushed to the extreme, and his footsteps suddenly became weird, and he disappeared in place. When it reappeared, it had already appeared on the huge snake head of the snow spirit python.
"Oh my God, it's so big!" Liu Ran couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the huge snake head under him, staring directly at the scarlet snake pupils without a hint of fear.
"Roar!"
The four-eyed snow spirit python didn't see fear in the eyes of the human in front of him at all, and felt that he had been provoked.
"Be good. Liu Ran held the iron sword in his hand, and his whole body was full of vitality, and the breath of the whole person became holy, and a pair of white wings grew out of his back. The snow spirit python straightened up at that moment, opening its mouth that could swallow two cows. The white snake teeth were as long as ice, longer than Liu Ran's sword, and they brought a gust of fishy wind to bite over.
"Whoosh!" Liu Ran leaned over, the white wings behind him fluttered, and his body hung in the air and rushed straight down. When he was about to collide with the big mouth, his wings flapped, and Liu Ran's body drew a strange arc, and his body rushed closer in the air. The moment the big mouth pounced, he staggered away from it, and stabbed the iron sword into it.
"Roar ......" The snow spirit python roared in pain and twisted its body to get rid of it. But Liu Ran flew very steadily, like a small mosquito clinging to the snow spirit python, not deviating at all.
The iron sword looked rusty, but it didn't pause when it stabbed into it like a knife cutting tofu.
Liu Ran's back wings moved again to accelerate and dive, leaving a five-meter-long wound on the side of the snow spirit python, and immediately retracted his wings after cutting it, and actually ran away from the scene with his legs.
"Roar!"
This snow spirit python was completely enraged, and the human being in front of him actually provoked himself so much, twisted his body and chased after him.
Anger caused it to lose its mind for a moment, and when it had completely broken out of the white fog, it came to a clearing, its white body shining in the distant sunset. At the same time, it also exposed countless wounds on its body, this spirit beast was really seriously injured, and there was always a lot of blood on the ground when it crawled.
When it burst out of the white mist, it suddenly found that the trace of the human had disappeared, and at the same time it was replaced by another person. Tian Yueyu stood in an open space directly in front of it, her light blue eyes staring coldly at the Snow Spirit Python, and clenched the White Ice Sword.
"Roar!"
The pain of the wound made the snow spirit python's madness increase greatly, and he only thought about how to tear apart the human in front of him, twisting his huge body and pounced on Tian Yueyu.
"Hoo ......"
Tian Yueyu held the sword above his head with both hands, and the breath in his whole body was withdrawn again.
In an instant, the sword intent raged like a wave and spread around, and the sharp sword qi cut through the dense fog, and suddenly woke up the snow spirit python, and it found that it had broken away from the dense fog. Feeling the sword qi on the woman in front of him, the Snow Spirit Python retreated, it knew that its injuries were serious.
"Buzz!"
But no sooner had it turned around than the circle surrounded by arrows burst into flames, and the blazing flames frightened it, and it felt the fear of death in this flame.
The Phoenix Divine Flame is the strongest flame in the world, and it is a perfect restraint against a spirit beast of its attributes.
"You can't run away. Liu Ran appeared on the edge of the circle of flames, grinning and blocking its retreat.
