Chapter 40: The Dryad
Although Shou Chang was reluctant to move, he couldn't help Lu Xiaoyuan's request, so he had to quietly go out of the magic circle with Lu Xiaoyuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info said in a low voice: "Little junior brother, you must follow me, don't shoot easily when you encounter an enemy, I'll test it first, if the enemy's cultivation is not high, you can go again." Lu Xiaoyuan nodded in agreement.
It was nighttime, and although it was dark outside, there was still light of various colors shining in the forest, no different from daytime. The two of them walked around the forest for a while, but they didn't find any Yin Spirit Beasts, so they decided to go back. When they walked past a towering ancient tree, the ancient tree suddenly trembled violently, startling the two of them, and immediately took a few steps back.
Two eyes suddenly opened in the middle of the trunk of the ancient tree, and another opening opened under them, which should be mouths, but could not speak.
Lu Xiaoyuan saw the strange situation and asked in a low voice, "Is this a dryad?"
Shou Chang said in a trembling voice: "Then it goes without saying, it seems that this tree demon has cultivated quite deeply." As soon as he finished speaking, two rattans flew out from behind the tree, attacking the two of them like a strange python.
The two of them quickly dodged, both palms, only to see two balls of blue fire and a circle of purple petals hit the two rattans, and the rattans retreated extremely fast, and the blue fire and petals were all hit in the air. He usually specializes in defensive martial arts, and only practices the martial arts used to hurt the enemy.
The dryad misses the blow and strikes again, and the two of them jump to dodge, but they can't hurt the dryad. The dryad and the two of them attacked me like this, you flashed and I attacked for a long time, and finally got impatient, the canopy suddenly expanded, covering the sky and the sun, covering Lu Xiaoyuan and Shouchang under it, and more than a dozen rattans flew out of the canopy, circling and hitting the two.
Suddenly there was darkness in front of him, and he could only see two gloomy green, ghostly fire, but the eyes of the dryad. Lu Xiaoyuan was a little flustered, and shouted: "Senior brother, this is okay..." He was very afraid of the dark, the huge canopy of trees blocked the light of the magic circle, and the surroundings were pitch black, and he was so afraid that he couldn't help but hide behind Lu Xiaoyuan.
Lu Xiaoyuan was helpless, his true qi condensed in his right fist, "Three immortals break!" The three different colors of qi turned into a spiral, and with the punch, several rattans were knocked down, and there were still three rattans whipped on Lu Xiaoyuan's body like a long whip, Lu Xiaoyuan was knocked away, his robe was torn, and his body was in hot pain. Shou Chang was right behind him, and he was also taken away when he threw out, falling to the ground.
The few rattans that the dryad had been knocked down flew up again and pumped towards Lu Xiaoyuan. Suddenly, a sword light flashed, blocking several rattans back, and then the sword light rushed towards the two green eyes of the dryad, and there was a sound of "ping-pong", as if the person and the dryad were fighting.
At this time, two more people helped Lu Xiaoyuan and Shouchang up, "Are you okay?" "You're not injured, are you?"
After a while, the canopy of the dryad was slashed by the sword light, and a little light sprinkled through the canopy, and the dryad saw that the crown was broken, so he had to shrink the canopy to its original size, and the forest was bright again.
That piece of sword light was sent by Shoubai's ten thousand sword tricks, Shoubai's long sword fought with more than ten rattans of the tree demon, and he didn't fall behind at all, but the sound of "ping pong" continued, and no one or one demon was injured.
After a while, Shoubai jumped to Shouxiong's side and said, "Senior brother, the rattan is so strong, you come." Many rattans chased after him, Shouxiong held the ball with both hands, and the gorgeous true qi condensed into a sphere, and shouted, "Five Dragons Break the Demon Seal!" The two palms were pushed out, and the sphere turned into a four-sided true qi seal, and five qi dragons of different colors were coiled between the palms.
The qi dragon roared in unison, pushing the Demon Breaker Seal to collide with the rattan, and the rattan was all shaken back, Shouxiong continued to urge the true qi, and the Demon Breaker Seal rose up to catch up. Although the Demon Breaker Seal pushes the softening rattan, as long as it collides with the trunk, it will be able to infer the trunk.
How do you know that the more than ten rattans of the tree demon were all dispatched, forming a large net, blocking the demon seal, which is quite useful for overcoming rigidity with softness, Shouxiong can't help but urge the demon seal, and after pushing the rattan net deep into the foot, it is difficult to advance an inch.
The two dark green eyes of the dryad shrank uncertainly, Shouxiong also gritted his teeth, the blue tendons in the corners of his forehead burst out, and one demon exerted all his strength, and the scene froze for a while. Seeing this, Lu Xiaoyuan wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by Shourong: "Don't worry, Senior Brother can handle it." ”
Shouxiong shouted again, pushed the Demon Breaker Seal forward three inches, took five steps back, and quickly pulled out a long and thin scimitar from his waist. This knife is five feet long and two fingers thick, but it is not made of steel, but made of animal horns, and there are many horn patterns on the blade.
Vertically forward, the "brush" two knives cut out, and the net formed by rattan immediately opened a hole. Shouxiong drilled through the rift, "Thunder and flash!" The blue light around his body shone, and he advanced with his sword at a very fast speed, and before the dryad could defend himself, he was stabbed into the body by the scimitar.
There was a sound of "fluttering", but the leaves of the dryad were constantly falling, and the body of the tree was gradually withering, and finally the dark green eyes slowly closed, and the two ghost fires disappeared. The dryad died.
Shourong explained: "Back then, Senior Brother hunted a one-horned Sky Splitter in the Frightened Ghost Forest, and the Sky Splitter had extremely long horns, and after Senior Brother hunted it, he cut off the one-horned and refined this Sky Splitting Blade. Later, it was integrated into the steel chopping stone, which was extremely sharp and could be regarded as a superior weapon. ”
The weapons used by the warriors are the same as the martial arts, and there are also superior and inferior, one depends on the material of the weapon itself, and the weapons made of ordinary steel are naturally inferior to the weapons refined from exotic materials;
Shouxiong came back, frowned and reprimanded: "You two are so bold, dare to walk around in this ghost forest, if you go far, how can we save you?" Lu Xiaoyuan stuck out his tongue and followed the three of them back, talking and laughing along the way, but there was no usual movement, as soon as he turned around, he saw Shouchang following behind without saying a word, his face was full of shame, so he understood his thoughts, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Senior brother, I am very grateful to be able to accompany me out..."
Shouchang raised his head and glanced at Lu Xiaoyuan, although Lu Xiaoyuan did not ridicule or blame himself, he still couldn't forgive himself. I swore to my junior brother before that I wanted to protect my junior brother, but when I was really in danger, I hid behind my junior brother and asked my junior brother to protect him. Thinking of the situation where the masters and brothers take care of themselves and protect themselves on weekdays, I feel even more sad: why can't I be like them, protecting the people around me more than they need to protect?
Returning to the magic circle, Shoubai called Lu Xiaoyuan out, took out a green and white elixir, claiming that it was an elixir to enhance true qi, and asked Lu Xiaoyuan to take it. Lu Xiaoyuan was grateful to Shoubai and took the pill. Shoubai looked at Lu Xiaoyuan, stopped talking, and finally sighed slightly, and returned to the formation with Lu Xiaoyuan.
On the second day, everyone continued to advance, killing many demon clans, yin spirits, and fierce beasts along the way, and reached the third order in the evening. After walking a short distance, there was an empty land in front of me, and from a distance there was a roar of running and howling, as if there were thousands of troops.
Shouxiong said in a deep voice: "Everyone be careful, the unicorn has come out." "The four of them are ready for battle, as if they are facing a great enemy. When Lu Xiaoyuan saw the four of them looking like this, he knew that the comer was not good.
After a while, I could vaguely see the dust in the nearby forest, and a large group of green ox-like monsters rushed out, with only a dagger-like horn on their heads, and their body size was much larger than that of ordinary green oxen, like a mountain of meat, with four hooves flying, the speed was not too fast, but it was violent, and the ground was rumbling.
Shouxiong stood at the front and shouted, "Stand up, don't scatter!" Saying that, the true qi condensed, and the Five Dragons Demon Breaker Seal burst out, colliding with the horn of the first one-horned one-horned one, and the one-horned one-horned one-horned head was crooked by the huge force of the Demon Breaking Seal, staggered to the left, and fell to the ground. The Shou Chang on the left flank carried the Turtle and Snake Spirit Guard to block the Sky Splitter's collision, while the Shou Rong on the right flank attacked with a sword and shield.
Dozens of unicorns did not surround them, but stopped a few dozen paces after the five people, turned around, and continued to launch a second assault. As soon as the direction of the beasts changed, the four people on the periphery also immediately changed their formation, and the guards were still at the front. Shoubai is in the rear wing, and will not be directly attacked by the one-horned man, and every time the one-horned man rushes past him, he will stab him with ten thousand swords, or stab the leg of the ox, or stab the back and belly of the ox.
The unicorn group slammed back and forth several times, and although none of the five were injured, their true qi was consumed a lot. The speed of the unicorn is not fast, if the five of them are separated, they will naturally be able to escape, but the terrain in the ghost forest is complicated, once separated, it is not easy to gather, Lu Xiaoyuan will be alone, and it will be dangerous to encounter other fierce beasts and demons.
Seeing the perseverance of the one-horned attack, Shouxiong shouted, "You four hold here, I'll try to lure this group of beasts away!" With a loud shout, he pulled out the Sky Splitting Blade on his waist and rushed towards the group with a wave.
The unicorn is exercised in continuous hunting and fighting, and its physical function reaches a certain level, and the unicorn on the top of its head will become extremely long and wide, far superior to the ordinary unicorn, and is known as the unicorn splitting the sky, which is the king of the group.
If the unicorn resists, the defender may not be able to break out of the group, but the Sky Splitting Blade is made of a single horn on the head of the king of the group, and the unicorn has a natural fear of it, and does not dare to block it, so they have to get out of the way on both sides.
Shouxiong rushed out like a wind and waves, retracted the Sky Splitting Blade, and at the same time turned his body around, he secretly lucked his true qi, and the five dragons broke the demon seal again, knocking over the two one-horned people, and then turned around and ran away.
The group howled, half of the one-horned ones chased after Shouxiong, and the other half still rushed towards the four Shoubai. As soon as Shouxiong left, Lu Xiaoyuan was exposed, and saw a one-horned man slamming into him with a sharp horn, if he dodged, the people next to him would inevitably be injured, and the "Three Immortals" were shot out at the moment.
The three qi spirals, but the power is several times greater than before, "bang" sounded, and the qi hit the unicorn on the head, and it actually broke a hole in the unicorn's head, and the unicorn nose was weak and fell to the ground. Lu Xiaoyuan was surprised and delighted when he saw this, and immediately thought that it was Shoubai who gave him the elixir that had an extraordinary effect.
