Chapter 138: Escape
In the Wounded Qi Forest, the fiery red dead branches and fallen leaves, and the corpses of various huge demon beasts were left behind, lying among the trees, black as a hard stinky stone.
Looking up through the lush leaves of the Wounded Qi Forest, you can still see the rolling black clouds over the ancient land, sinking and falling.
In the depths of the forest, a few terrifying gloom lights flickered from time to time, but they disappeared into the dense forest in a blink of an eye.
A few miles into the forest, you can still hear the roars of fierce beasts one after another, and you can still feel the loud rumbling sound of the beast tide coming from far away.
However, as Elder Ren led the group deeper and further, the surroundings became quieter and quieter, and the surroundings were so empty that there seemed to be no living beings.
Before, on the barren mountain, I could still see the demon beasts running sporadically in the forest from a distance, but when I got to the inside of the forest, I couldn't meet any demon beasts, not even a weak beast.
It can't be dangerous, right?
Zhang Yan frowned, subconsciously feeling a kind of uneasiness.
Ximen Xiaochen and Ba Huo looked around the forest, both of them showed frightened expressions, and took the initiative to move closer to Zhang Yan.
"Why don't you even have a beast, it can't be some powerful demon beast, right?" Ba Huo muttered, and after the most reluctance, he glanced at Ximen Xiaochen and said in a low voice, "Senior brother, how many times have I asked you, and you haven't even told me what your relationship is with this beautiful junior sister?"
Zhang Yan pretended not to hear it, and released his divine sense to reach out, but in order not to attract the attention of the elder in front of him, he just shrouded his divine sense on both sides of everyone.
"Hmph, Xiao Ba Huo, if you dare to chew your tongue again, see if I don't seal your sharp mouth!" Ximen Xiaochen's two big eyes suddenly glared, and he said viciously to Ba Huo.
Ba Huo shrank his head, turned to one side, and walked to the other side of Zhang Yan.
The girl's actions in front of the barren peak had already made Ba Huo gossip in his heart, and he was envious and surprised by Zhang Yan, and his heart was itching incomparably, and he wanted to find out the relationship between the two.
Therefore, along the way, every time Ba Huo asked Zhang Yan, he would inevitably quarrel with Ximen Xiaochen, and the two became familiar with each other in this kind of bickering.
And after getting along for more than half a month, Ba Huo has also slightly understood Zhang Yan's temper, so he said some things without scruples, as for the previous extortion of the spirit stone, maybe he has forgotten it completely.
Ba Huo's secret muttering was also heard by the rest of the team.
In particular, there are half of the second-generation disciples of the Desolate Peak, all of whom are teenagers of the twelfth and thirteenth layers of the Qi refining period, and their spiritual senses are extremely keen, and even if Ba Huo doesn't say it, they all sense that something is wrong.
"Elder Ren, could it be that he is going the wrong way, the disciple feels that something is not right. ”
A blue-clothed young man among the second-generation disciples of Huangfeng, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and broad lips, walked in front of the crowd, only took a step behind Elder Ren, and said loudly.
The old man also felt it, and it was indeed a little strange. Elder Ren didn't look back, continued to hurry, and said, "Usually, this place can be described as dangerous for you Qi refining stage disciples, but there are usually very few Jindan stage demon beasts in the Qi Injury Forest, and now that the beast tide is coming, the demon beasts in the forest may have escaped from the forest, and there will be no danger in the future." ”
"But everyone should also pay more attention, if you encounter danger, choose to retreat immediately, don't fight!" After a pause, Elder Ren turned around and said in a deep voice.
"Disciple understands!"
The group of young disciples who followed behind all responded and continued to follow.
If there are no demon beasts in the Jindan period, there will be no danger in the future.
Zhang Yan groaned for a long time, looked up at the people who were hurrying in front of him, slapped the spirit beast bag in his hand, and quietly released the psychic dog.
Since getting the psychic dog, Zhang Yan really hasn't used it to find the elixir, and this is the first time.
This wounded Qi Forest, there must be some quite precious elixir, now there are no other demon beasts in the forest, plus the psychic dog's unusual sensitivity to danger, the psychic dog's life should be safe and worry-free.
"What a cute puppy!" Ximen Xiaochen was beside Zhang Yan, where could she hide this move, seeing the cute and dexterous appearance of the psychic dog, a pair of beautiful eyes suddenly stared at the boss, shining incomparably bright, revealing love.
"Senior brother, is this a psychic dog? Ba Huo was also slightly surprised, but he was not as knowledgeable as Ximen Xiaochen, and he recognized the little spirit beast at a glance.
"Don't get the attention of others and keep on your way. ”
Zhang Yan released the psychic dog and used his divine sense to convey his thoughts, asking him to look for the elixir not far away.
"Senior, you should tell me what that wounded unicorn leaf looks like, right?"
Zhang Yan's face was silent, but he wailed softly in his heart.
If you miss the Wounded Kira Leaf this time, it will be difficult to come back in the future.
This is one of the nests of demon beasts entrenched in the periphery of the ancient times, and when the beast tide is over, maybe there are fierce beasts rampant here, and the fierce birds are empty, how to take the leaves of the wounded unicorn again.
"Hmph, you kid is in a hurry now, why did you still look indifferent at that time?" Xu Yuanzi snorted coldly and said, "The leaf of the wounded unicorn, the shape is the same as other leaves of the wounded qi, but it is still on the branch, it is already yellow and gray, the important thing is that there is still the pattern of this fire unicorn on the leaf, it is very easy to recognize, and the monks who don't know its precious will definitely not care." ”
Zhang Yan secretly remembered it, looked around quietly, and released his divine sense to completely envelop the surrounding trees not far away, whether he could find the leaf of the injured qi, it could only depend on luck.
With such a large forest, it was impossible for him to search it alone.
"Huh?"
Elder Ren, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped his steps at this time, and glanced towards the side of the forest with a light sigh, but after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he continued to walk forward.
This small gesture made everyone puzzled, but it was not easy to ask.
It was Zhang Yan who was behind, and he sweated, and the movement made by the psychic dog finally attracted the attention of Elder Ren, but fortunately, the other party didn't use his divine sense to investigate, otherwise he would have been discovered by the other party.
Going forward like this for more than ten miles, the forest gradually became darker, and the roar of the demon beast also disappeared, and there was no danger, which made everyone feel a lot more at ease.
The most excited was Zhang Yan, the psychic dog quietly searched for elixirs around the forest along the way, but obtained a purple soul flower and some dream spirit grass that refined and increased the cultivation of the cultivators in the foundation building period.
Purple Soul Flower, in the early years, Zhang Yan had seen it at the trade fair in Luoshan City, which could directly increase the monk's ten-year lifespan, which was an extremely precious elixir, and now he could find one with his own hands, in retrospect, it was really fantastic.
However, what made him a little disappointed was that along the way, he didn't find the Leaf of the Wounded Qi, so he followed the team and went straight to the destination, and the chance of encountering the Leaf of the Injured Qiqi was very small, but he couldn't leave the team.
"Stop!"
At this time, Elder Ren suddenly stopped everyone and looked around with a frown.
As soon as a group of people stopped, a cold and terrifying aura suddenly landed, and the originally dry and warm Wounded Qi Forest was filled with gloom and cold in an instant.
Zhang Yan's face changed greatly, and his heart was horrified, and before he could react, a huge figure still covered the forest in mid-air, even if it was such an ancient tree covering the sky, the Qi Forest seemed much smaller than that figure.
"It's not good, it's the Xuanbing Python of the Jindan period, everyone retreat quickly!"
Elder Ren's face changed drastically, he screamed in horror, and with a wave of his hand, he took out a huge silver shield and stepped back.
"Boom!"
With a bang, the towering ancient trees of the Qi Forest were directly broken by a huge figure, and the dead wood stumps were shattered, revealing the appearance of a demon beast.
The whole body is dark blue, the head is as big as a hill, the snake is swallowing, the eyes are shining, the smell of blood is strong and compelling, and it is hideous and terrifying.
And an astonishing coercion fell, and the surrounding area of the forest was suddenly filled with cold, and it was so cold that it was terrifying.
Hearing that it was a demon beast in the Jindan period, a group of young disciples had already been stunned for a long time, and then saw this huge giant python revealing its true face, all of them were shocked in their hearts, and some were even shocked by the coercion of the giant python and flew out.
But even if they were afraid, in order to escape for their lives, a group of teenagers still got up in fear, carried out the way they came, and ran wildly according to the way they came.
"You guys flee to the other side of the forest, don't look back!" Zhang Yan gasped when he saw the appearance of the giant python, turned around and yelled at Ximen Xiaochen and Ba Huo, and then took out a few sky-skimming talismans from the storage bag and threw them to the two of them.
"What about you, senior brother......
Ximen Xiaochen wanted to say something, but he was directly grabbed by Ba Huo and fled towards the other side of the forest.
The terrifying demon beasts of the Jindan period, Ba Huo has lived in this Thousand Spirits Sect for a year, but it is very clear that compared to the monks in the late Jindan period, it is terrifying, and after seeing the appearance of the giant python clearly, his soul almost flew, where do he dare to stay.
With his timid and death-fearing character, saving his life is the most important thing at this moment.
The two escaped safely, and the other second and fourth generations of disciples also ran backwards, Zhang Yan didn't dare to stay for half a moment, and fled towards the other side of the forest with a light step.
Still, his divine sense was released, probing what was going on.
"Bang!"
Elder Ren was at the front of everyone, even if he sacrificed his shield and flew back as soon as possible, he was still a step slower, and was directly slapped out of the giant python's snake tail.
The Xuanbing Giant Python in the Jindan Period, with dark blue scales, hard as iron, Cheng Liang is terrifying, and the strength of the tail is even more huge, where is Elder Ren, a monk in the foundation building period, can resist, the shield was smashed, and his chest was deflated, and his flesh and blood were blurred.
"Phew!"
slapped Elder Ren away, the big mouth of the Xuanbing Giant Python suddenly opened, and a dark blue aura **** came out and fell on Elder Ren, and with the fall of that breath, Elder Ren's whole person instantly turned into a humanoid ice sculpture.
"Bang!"
The incumbent elder turned into a humanoid ice sculpture in less than a breath, but suddenly exploded entirely, turning into a pile of shattered ice cubes, and the ice cubes were mixed with vague flesh and bones.
"Damn, you still say that this forest is safe, isn't this here to send you to death!"
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yan was almost frightened, scolded loudly, and rushed even more desperately.
The idea of whether to go back and help out just now has disappeared without a trace.
Now what he hopes most is that the Ice Python doesn't notice him, otherwise, with the speed of the other party, he will not be able to escape from this forest.
The best result was that the giant python immediately went after those second-generation disciples who had cultivated highly, so he might be able to escape this catastrophe.
As for the life and death of others, he can't control it at this moment.
