Chapter 18: Killing the Demons
Time always passes quietly and easily, especially when people are nervous, and before you know it, it is already a day.
At this time, the sun has turned west, and a slanting glimmer of light is projected from the gap between the leaves, reflecting in the dark cave, vaguely revealing the body of the beast when it is prostrate and resting, and the bright and shiny fur looks particularly eye-catching.
Moreover, there is also an earth-shattering snoring sound from time to time, telling other species that they are resting and do not disturb!
Between the thick trunks of the trees, a thin and delicate young man, with a sword in his hand, looked around from time to time, and even walked carefully with every step, as if he was on guard against something.
"Gollum~"
Xiao He lifted his clothes and touched his stomach, feeling that it was almost flat. He hadn't eaten for nearly six or seven hours since he left.
"Hey~ I was in too much of a hurry in the morning and forgot to bring food. I didn't expect the master to be ruthless enough, and he didn't even give me some in the ring, but what should I do? In this huge forest, there may be soul beasts raiding at all times, and no food to replenish energy is equivalent to giving them food. Xiao He sighed quietly.
There were black tree trunks all around, and he didn't even know where he was, let alone where to go. In desperation, he had no choice but to continue walking, hoping that he would be lucky enough to come across something to eat.
The human body is really mysterious, and in the case of hunger, it can best stimulate its own desire to survive, and the major organs have also become sensitive and abnormal. It's not just hearing, sight, and even smell.
"Hmm~ It's so fragrant, what does it smell like, it's like the smell of wild fruits" Xiao He was suddenly shocked.
I saw him sniff hard in the air, as if he had caught a hint of survival, and then slowly searched for the past.
In a few moments, he saw several low, bare trees appear, barely a leaf on their branches, and each tree hung a dense fist-sized brown fruit from which the fragrance emanated!
"Wow~ This is the earth spirit fruit tree, this kind of fruit tree can't grow leaves because it can't receive sunlight all year round, and can only rely on absorbing the spirit of the earth to produce fruits, and it bears fruit every three years. The spirit of the earth, which contains the richness of heaven and earth, is of great benefit to cultivators. Haha~ God won't die either!"
Seeing this, Xiao He also sighed with emotion, and ran over without thinking about it.
"Do~"
Xiao He touched his bulging belly, then patted it, and lay down directly on the ground, burping a long time into the air, and sighed with satisfaction:
"I didn't expect this fruit to look good, but the taste was still very delicious, and suddenly a pure energy rose from the ground. Yes, I have to stock it in case I need it. The hell knows when I'll find something to eat, and I still have the storage warehouse left for me by the master!
After saying that, he shook the ring on his hand, got up and began to frantically pick the remaining earth spirit fruits, and then put them in.
Just as Xiao He was happy to put all the fruits from the first tree into the ring and was about to start the second tree, a shoulder-high figure appeared behind him.
I saw that it was covered with golden hair, and it looked like an ape, without the slightest uniqueness. Only the two arms are bronze-colored, but they give people a metallic texture.
At this time, it was obviously very unhappy, because the delicious taste that he had finally discovered, and the fruit that he had guarded for three years, was actually served to a pot in advance by the guy in front of him, so he was naturally very angry.
But also, seeing that there were only a few fruit trees that he had waited for three years to finally bear fruit, and one of them was preempted by an unknown creature, and there was not a single fruit left, how could he not be angry?
Now that he found out that this creature with no conscience was about to make a move on its second fruit tree, he must have couldn't help it and rushed straight over.
"Haha, the last one, this tree is finished, the next target. Xiao He was completely immersed in joy.
"Wu ~ Huhu"
Suddenly, an ape-like creature jumped directly onto the fruit tree, and then grabbed Xiao He's wrist that was stretched out to the last fruit with a bronze palm, and the great pain caused by the strong grip instantly spread throughout his body, making his delicate face instantly red.
"Ah~"
He looked at it along his arm, but he didn't expect it to be a little bit, his face was angry, and he was immediately unconvinced, and drank:
"What the hell are you, you hurt me, let go"
Xiao He directly shook his hand, but that guy was too strong, held it too hard and too tightly, and he didn't let go for a long time, and he couldn't shake it off.
He was also very anxious, and the heart-wrenching pain made him grit his teeth, and he went up with his left hand and punched the thing.
Then, the two figures scuffled in the tree, and after a while, Xiaohe's feet slipped and fell from the tree.
"Ouch~ my old waist. ”
Xiao He didn't care about the pain in his buttocks, and jumped up directly, for fear that if that thing hit again, he would be miserable.
It's just that when he looked around the ground, he couldn't find the figure of the thing, and he immediately wondered.
"Huhu~"
Hearing the sound, Xiao He immediately looked at the tree, and saw that the guy was still hanging from the tree with one hand and didn't fall, and the other hand was venting his anger and kept beating his chest, and was roaring at him, baring his teeth and grinning.
"Hmph~ Who should I be, it turned out to be a bronze gibbon, I think you should be a first-order low-level, similar to me. In this case, if you dare to come and disturb the good things of the little master, I will let you have no good fruit to eat!
The brass gibbon also seemed to feel that he was provoking, and he was already on top of his anger, but he didn't expect to be so provoked, so he naturally couldn't bear it.
It began to grasp the branch with its other hand, then swayed back and forth, and then pounced directly on Xiao He on the ground.
At the same time, it also raised its bronze hands and clenched them into fists and smashed them directly at Xiao He.
"Hmph~ It's exactly what I want, see how the master knocks you down and takes it!" After speaking, he also clenched his fists and prepared to attack.
Unexpectedly, the bronze gibbon attacked too fast, and Xiao He really couldn't react, so he had to raise his hands and use his elbows to protect his upper body to resist the attack.
"Ah~"
I only heard Xiaohe's scream, and the feeling that the bone in his left elbow was about to shatter, and he didn't expect this bronze gibbon's arm to be so hard, and it felt like real metal contact just now.
Then he squatted down directly, and used his right hand to stroke the sore spot of his left hand back and forth, and the pain of his heart made his face twist and grit his teeth fiercely.
"Knock Knock ~ Knock"
Seeing Xiao He's appearance, the bronze gibbon began to become proud, and his hands clapped directly.
Then it didn't forget to make up for the attack, rushed over directly, and kicked directly behind Xiao He with both feet.
"Ouch~yo"
I saw Xiao He lying directly on the ground and pouting his ass.
He himself didn't expect such a result, and even felt a little ashamed to be so toyed with by this short thing in front of him.
Immediately, anger ignited in his heart, and he couldn't care about the pain in his body, so he rolled directly to the ground, picked up the silver sword, and pointed at the bronze gibbon not far away.
"Hell, you have already ruined the master's left hand, you have to pay for it, see how I get rid of your proud bronze hand next!Hmph~" Xiao He gritted his teeth and said viciously.
Without saying a word, he directly urged his soul power into the sword, and the fierce sword qi and the dazzling white light emitted from the sword also made the bronze gibbon feel frightened.
"Now I know it's too late to be afraid, let's die!"
Xiao He rushed directly over, relentlessly chasing and slashing the copper gibbon, slashing at its heavy copper arm with a sword, and directly flicking the silver sword away.
Even Xiao He didn't expect that this guy's arm was so hard, it was really like a piece of copper.
"Wuhu ~ Wuhu ~"
When the bronze gibbon saw that Xiao He couldn't help himself with a sword, he instantly became even more proud, and began to run around, encircling Xiao He, preparing to strike another heavy blow when he was not paying attention!
Xiao He also felt a headache, if he didn't take this guy away, he would definitely not be able to pick other fruits, so he had to fight quickly, and said in a low voice:
"Kill quickly, Kai!"
I saw that Xiao He rushed towards the bronze arm monkey again, the attack speed increased, and each blow was extremely fast, no longer aimed at its copper arm, but at other vital parts of the body.
At this time, the bronze gibbon also really felt scared, and even frightened. Desperately using the copper arm to block every blow, he slowly found that he couldn't keep up, and there were slight cuts in some places on his body, and the fur fell off, and a trace of blood oozed from it.
"U~U"
The brass gibbon also felt the pain, and his face began to become afraid. And Xiao He didn't seem to have the intention of stopping, I saw that his eyes were a little red, and he seemed to be enjoying the pleasure of chopping living creatures, and his face became a little distorted.
Without waiting for the bronze gibbon to calm down, Xiao He directly rushed over again, and the speed did not decrease, ready to finish it.
The bronze gibbon also saw the surging killing intent of the person in front of him, became frightened, dodged left and right, kept retreating, and finally tripped directly over the stones on the ground.
Seeing this, the corners of Xiao He's mouth began to sneer, and his face was hideous. The sword qi of the silver sword in his hand began to gather at the tip of the sword, and it suddenly shone brightly, and he directly rushed over again, stabbing violently.
The copper gibbon lying on the ground instantly felt terrified to the extreme, and directly raised the copper arm for the final block defense.
I saw that the silver-white sword body and the copper arm brushed away, sparks appeared, and the tip of the sword finally pierced into its chest, directly penetrating.
Then, Xiao He pulled it out directly, and the scarlet blood splattered directly on Xiao He's face, and he also woke up at this moment.
Seeing the scene in front of him, he was also shuddering, and he was a little afraid, and said to himself:
"What the hell was I just now? So thirsty for killing, it seems that I enjoy the feeling of killing, could it be that this is the demon of rapid killing today? Rapid killing is indeed very suitable for melee attacks, the speed and strength are in place, the only deficiency is this killing aura. No, I have to cultivate more, and I must restrain this inadequacy, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable! ”
Just when Xiao He was alone in reflection and contemplation, the bronze gibbon lying on the ground slowly raised its head to the sky, and then let out a sharp long roar, and then fell in a pool of blood again, no longer moving.
Xiao He was also taken aback, suddenly came back to his senses, no longer stayed, and directly climbed the fruit tree again, and began to continue picking the earth spirit fruit.
"Wuhu ~ Wuhu ~"
It wasn't long before there was another noise behind him.
Looking back, he was also so frightened that his mouth opened wide, and a sense of fear instantly crept into his heart.
I saw that more than a dozen brass gibbons were climbing back and forth on the huge and thick branches, and they were quickly rushing towards him, and when they saw their companions lying in a pool of blood on the ground, they became even more frantic and accelerated their speed.
"Damn, that guy was calling his companion just now? Trouble, I'm afraid it's over today. Xiao He scolded.
Then, he jumped directly off the fruit tree, picked up the silver sword, and ran wildly.
When Ape County saw that Xiao He began to run away, he shouted directly, as if he was about to be angry, and quickly approached.
After all, Xiao He usually exercises a lot, and he is naturally okay in terms of physical strength, plus the four veins of yin and yang in his body have been partially opened, and he can barely cope with it while running and pranayama.
It's just that after a fierce battle just now, my body has some injuries, and I am starting to be a little unbearable.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of water flowing in front of me, and I didn't have time to think too much about it, so I ran desperately that way.
When he ran to the river, he saw that the river was turbulent, and Xiao He was also panicked.
Seeing him stop suddenly, Sarugun also stopped walking, slowly approaching, not daring to be too aggressive.
When they saw that the river in front of them was blocking Xiao He's way, they began to be unscrupulous again, and surrounded him, and their arms were knocked together from time to time, making the sound of gold and iron colliding, as if they were demonstrating.
Xiao He found that he had no way to escape, and he also gritted his teeth fiercely, feeling remorseful.
Suddenly there were a lot of thoughts in my heart, but at this time, it was obviously replaced by despair, and I was too unwilling. Hate, I came to the end of the road like this.
Then, he put the soul sword into the ring, and plunged into the turbulence without looking back, tears still flowing from the corners of his eyes......
