Volume 1: The Beginning of Yunxuan Chapter 124: Demon Puppet
Almost all day in the mountains, if the previous conflict was relatively deep, now it is completely deep into the mountains.
In the depths of the Ebony Mountains, there are countless big demons, and everyone is not blindly moving in a straight line, but when they encounter a big demon, they will take a detour and avoid it several times along the way.
As you get closer, you will walk your hands out of the way, spreading them out like a net, and probing for possible traces along the way.
The scattered teams are often a team of twenty or thirty people, just like when Long Wenmu and the others encountered Xue Baiyi and them before.
"Scarlet girl, I haven't asked you yet, how many people have you organized for the mission this time?" asked Long Wenmu as he walked.
Scarlet Xiaoyu and Yu Dashuai walked side by side, Scarlet Xiaoyu ignored the eyes of others, always held Yu Dashuai's arm, and looked back: "Originally, there were one hundred and twenty people, but there were fewer injured people, and now there are almost a hundred and more people." ”
"Then what is the strength of the people in the team this time?" Long Wenmu asked again.
Along the way, he noticed that many people in the team were very strong.
Most people are indeed not strong, but there are still several profound existences.
In this team, those who belong to the category of strong are definitely not only Scarlet Xiaoyu and Qu Zhongyi.
Scarlet Xiaoyu pointed to a man in the distance who was five big and three thick, and said, "That person's name is Fortitude, and he ranks tenth on the demon master list." ”
He pointed to another man holding a knife: "That person's name is Tianhua, and he ranks eighth on the list of demon masters." ”
"Are they all in the top ten?"
According to what Aoki said, the top ten are at least those who have refined a big demon source stone, so the two are too.
Scarlet Xiaoyu nodded: "With me and Qu Zhongyi, there are a total of four people in the top ten this time." The others who are ranked on the Demon Master List are not counting the four of us, there are still twenty. ”
Long Wenmu just felt that there were strong people, but he didn't want to pay back a lot.
Being able to have a place on the list of demon masters means that there is a certain strength, and this kind of person is not an ordinary person.
What kind of mission does it take to send so many strong men this time?
Long Wenmu had a vague premonition in his heart.
The deeper you go, the more monsters there are.
The scarlet fish had to cheer up.
I thought that a weak person like Yu Dashuai would be afraid, but I found that Yu Dashuai and Long Wenmu didn't react.
"When you come to a place like this, are you afraid? Scarlet Xiaoyu asked Yu Dashuai.
Yu Dashuai shook his head.
Scarlet Xiaoyu glared at him angrily: "You still have the ability to be tough, even when I go to this kind of place, I don't dare to say that I am not afraid, you still dare to stand up in front of me." ”
Anyway, in her opinion, Yu Dashuai is a little demon master, and he is not afraid when he arrives in this kind of place, which is not normal.
He must have died to save face and deliberately pretended to be like this. But think about it, men, many times always have such a good face.
"Before we came to Lingyun Castle before, we crossed this mountain range. Yu Dashuai scratched his forehead and said.
Scarlet Xiaoyu thought he was holding on, but Yu Dashuai really didn't lie.
It took a month to walk through this mountain forest with Long Wenmu, even if a big demon suddenly appeared in front of him, Yu Dashuai would probably not blink more. Strange to say, if you want to say that he is bold, he is not bold. If something else happens, he may be the first to shrink his head, but only when he encounters a demon beast, it doesn't seem to have much impact on him.
"Crossing the mountains?, just your three-legged cat effort?" sneered at the little fish.
If he was an earth demon master, this might be credible, but the little demon master would not be convincing at all when he said such a thing.
The deeper you go, the more you encounter demon beasts, you can't avoid it, and you have encountered several demon beast attacks on the way.
However, the strength of the team is not weak, and it can usually be cleaned up when encountering demon beasts.
There was a violent beast roar ahead, and a behemoth roared towards him.
"Everyone be careful, it's a big demon!"
Someone yelled.
The body of the big demon is seventy zhang high, and it is as majestic as a hill.
The big demon was obviously attracted by their side, and he was simply coming towards them. The burly body ran with a surprisingly fast speed, and there was no way to avoid it.
The jungle couldn't stop the footsteps of the big demon, and when the big demon pounced, the earth shook violently, and the earth, rocks, and giant trees splashed.
"Everyone other than the Great Demon Master, all stand back!" Scarlet Xiaoyu drank coquettishly, the long sword in his waist was unsheathed, and the blade of the sword held up a fire-colored halo.
That's a demon soldier, the demon soldier of the scarlet fish is not low-grade, at least it is also made of the big demon as a material.
A sound similar to that of a phoenix came from the blade, and the flames turned into two wings to wrap around the blade.
"Stay here and don't move. She turned her head and shouted to Yu Dashuai, and after speaking, she turned into a flash of fire and rushed towards the big demon.
The flames enveloped her as if a man and a sword had become one.
The fire flashed out, and a line of sword light flew out like a slash through the sky.
In that instant, the sharp energy seemed to cut through the void, and the sword light slammed into the demon beast's body.
Before the oncoming demon beast could rush into the crowd, it was directly cut in half from head to toe by the sword light.
A torrent of blood poured down, and the massive body split in half and fell hard.
The dust was flying, and after a moment it was quiet again.
There were many gasps around them. Yu Dashuai glared, and even Long Wenmu was shocked.
Kill the big demon with one sword!
From the beginning, Long Wenmu felt that the strength of Scarlet Xiaoyu was not weak, but he never expected that this kind of not weak was the extent that he could kill the big demon with one sword.
Even if that big demon is not a dragon species, the big demon is a big demon after all.
In the usual saying, to deal with the big demon requires many big demon masters, and even the earth demon master can deal with it. In other words, is the current Scarlet Fish strength to the extent that it can compete with the Earth Demon Master?
The source stones of refining are different, and the difference in strength will be very huge. In many cases, a person can't be measured by cultivation alone, maybe the current Scarlet Fish can really cross the level and compete with the Earth Demon Master.
The scarlet fish flicked the blade of the sword, shook away the bloodstains, and put the sword into the sheath.
Youyou turned around and came back, returning to Yu Dashuai and Long Wenmu.
There are blood stains on the face of the scarlet fish, the complexion is slightly pale, and the slight wheezing is clearly not small.
Seeing this, Long Wenmu probably understood.
It's true to kill the big demon, but the scarlet fish should be full of strength, otherwise it won't be so badly consumed.
"You can actually kill the big demon in one blow. Yu Dashuai half-opened his mouth.
"Killing the big demon is not as simple as you think. Scarlet Xiaoyu gasped slightly, "When the big demon pounces, casualties are indispensable." I did it with all my might just now, and at that level, I would be exhausted after a few times at most. ”
Yu Dashuai let out an "oh".
Regardless of whether the consumption is serious or not, being able to kill the big demon with one move is terrifying enough.
Qu Zhongyi walked up: "Senior sister's strength is still so good, you behave like this, I'm really ashamed to be a senior brother." ”
Saying this, he smiled lightly and handed the white towel to Scarlet Xiaoyu: "Senior sister, wipe the blood on your face first." ”
"No, I don't have to. Scarlet Xiaoyu didn't look at him at all, and asked Chong Yu Dashuai, "Do you have a sweat towel on your body?"
"What am I taking that for......" Yu Dashuai touched his body, but he didn't touch anything.
Scarlet Xiaoyu was not polite to him, grabbed his sleeve, and wiped his face.
Qu Zhongyi's face next to him was dark.
"By the way, I haven't asked my junior sister yet, who is this brother from my junior sister? I see that you seem to have a good relationship. Qu Zhongyi put the white towel in his arms, and asked in a somewhat unkind tone.
"It's my future husband, how about it?" Scarlet Xiaoyu had a straightforward personality and said it directly.
The corners of Qu Zhongyi's eyes twitched violently, and he couldn't believe it. Immediately, as if thinking of something, a pair of eyes slowly narrowed and gradually sharpened.
"In the early years, my sister heard you say that you seem to be marrying someone, and I thought it was my sister's excuse at the time, could it be true?"
"What's the matter, what does it have to do with you?" Scarlet Xiaoyu didn't give him a good face.
The smile in the song gradually subsided, and he said jokingly: "Then I really have to congratulate my sister, there is such a wishful husband." I see that this little brother is very courageous, but he is a good person, but his strength is lower. There are many crises ahead, and my junior sister has to protect him, don't lose your life in vain. ”
Qu Zhongyi laughed twice, turned around and left.
The mockery in his words was obvious, and Yu Dashuai slowly clenched his hands.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Scarlet Fish comforted him.
Go to the demon beast, and when you come back again, you can get back a demon beast's source stone, which is the big demon's.
"Here's to you. She handed the source stone to Yu Dashuai.
"I don't need to. Yu Dashuai said in a deep voice.
"I'll take it for me, less nonsense. Scarlet Fish forced something into his hand.
Yu Dashuai really doesn't need this, it's useless to have the source stone of the Dark Turtle in his hand.
In terms of the degree of cherishment, the source stone of the tortoise is far rarer than that of ordinary demon source stones. But Scarlet Fish's character is the same, so he can't refuse.
Everyone cleaned up, cleaned up the remains of the big demon, and set off again.
"Scarlet girl, where are we going on this trip?" asked Long Wenmu when he took the time.
"It's almost there, and it's not far from where the last message came back. Scarlet Fish said.
The crowd walked for another half hour.
"It's almost here, everyone be on alert. "The song is meant to be at the front of the line.
Scarlet Xiaoyu pressed one hand on the hilt of the sword, and Long Wenmu also tensed his nerves.
The surrounding treetops brushed, and Long Wenmu smelled a faint smell of blood.
After another distance, the team stopped at the sound of the song's order.
In front of him was the corpse of a behemoth, the remains of a great demon.
It's not like a fight of the same kind, the big demon's neck is cut off, and it looks like a sharp blade cut.
Factitious?
Long Wenmu stared at it, and was able to kill the big demon, which means that the strength is not bad. But there are doubts.
The corpse of the big demon had no other injuries except for the severed neck, and the body was still intact.
Could it be that the demon crystals and source stones were not taken away?
Why do you kill the big demon without taking away the resources?
The ground under Long Wenmu's feet was blood-red, and it felt extremely wet.
"Be careful, this monster has only been dead for a short time. Long Wenmu leaned into the ears of Yu Dashuai and Scarlet Xiaoyu.
The two looked at each other and nodded.
The surrounding cold wind blows through the treetops.
The rustle continued in patches.
The disciple who went to check on the demon beast came back and came to Qu Zhongyi: "Senior Brother Qu, the demon beast seems to have been killed by the sword qi, and it has probably been dead for less than half an hour. ”
"Well, got it. Qu Zhongyi said, "Everyone, be vigilant, let's move on." ”
With that, he took the lead and walked forward.
However, just as the team was about to move, a black shadow flew through the treetops.
The speed was extremely fast, and before everyone could react, they rushed to a disciple and staggered past each other.
In such a short moment, everyone looked back, and the red blood column splattered, and the headless corpse fell softly, it was the disciple who had just staggered by.
The horror suddenly permeated, and many female disciples who were next to them screamed loudly.
"It's coming!"
"Enemy attack!"
Panic cried out.
Qu Zhongyi roared loudly: "Everyone be careful, it's a demon puppet!"
