At Wuji Mountain, Xiao Xuan looked at the messy tall grass and dense forests around him cautiously, and did not dare to make too much noise as he moved forward. Hou Yuhai, who had always been very nervous, seemed to be made extremely uncomfortable by this suppressed aura.
It had been a few hours since the Wuji Mountain hunting started, and the two of them had been wandering around the outside. If Xiao Xuan hadn't decisively refused, Hou Yuhai would have wanted to go deep into the depths to find out what was going on.
Before entering Wuji Mountain, Elder Yunhai, who presided over the hunt, once said that whichever team was the first to obtain the inner elixir of a fourth-level spiritual beast would end the hunt early, and the Xiao family member with the best performance would be given a mysterious reward.
.
But Xiao Xuan is not one to be hot-headed. Wuji Mountain is too dangerous. He would rather spend the ten days in peace rather than think about the ethereal fourth-level spiritual beast inner elixir.
"Brother, why didn't you see the spiritual beast?" Hou Yuhai was a little disappointed.
But at this moment, a roar came from not far away from the two of them, at most one mile in front.
Xiao Xuan pouted: "If you want to see spiritual beasts, there are them right in front of you."
On the low hillside of the mountain, Xiao and Hou hid behind a rock and looked at a two-meter-long giant wolf two hundred meters in front of them, with a body as black as ink. The black giant wolf had green eyes and its fur stood on end.
It looked like sharp needles. Under the wolf's claws was a large striped tiger that was nearly twice its size.
"It's a ghost wolf."
Xiao Xuan has not been able to practice martial arts since he was a child, but he is very curious about Jiuyou Continent, so he has read "Qiwen Yi Zhi Lu" early, which has many introductions to spiritual beasts. Ghost wolves are relatively low-level first-level spirits.
The beast is equivalent to the strength of a Zhenwu level one, but it moves like the wind and has sharp claws, making it harder to deal with than a Zhenwu level one warrior.
At the moment, the ghost wolf is chewing the flesh and blood of the striped tiger. It can bite off more than ten kilograms of meat in one bite. From time to time, it raises its ears and looks around vigilantly. This is no different from ordinary wolves, who are alert and cautious by nature.
Looking at the disproportionate size of the ghost wolf and the striped tiger, Hou Yuhai had a surprised expression on his face: "This is a spiritual beast. A wolf killed a tiger. No one will believe it if I tell you."
Xiao Xuan looked calm. The ghost beast wolf is a spiritual beast, and the striped tiger is just an ordinary beast. What's the use of being big.
"Brother Hou, we'd better leave. This group of spirit beasts is a social spirit beast. There might be a pack of ghost wolves nearby. These spirit beasts are extremely miserable. If they were quietly surrounded, they wouldn't be able to leave their whole corpse behind."
"Run." At this moment, a panicked shout came from the left, and Xiao Xuan's ears twitched: "There is someone."
I saw two figures jumping out in panic, they were two children of the Xiao family. Behind them were three huge ghost wolves, chasing after them with bloodthirsty expressions on their faces.
"These two guys are really unlucky."
Xiao Xuan shook his head. They were both descendants of the Xiao family. They had once been helpers in Tianwu Hall before. Seeing them being chased by several ghost wolves, he didn't even think of helping them.
But soon Xiao Xuan was stunned. The two bastards actually led three ghost wolves towards the hillside where they were hiding.
"Damn it." Xiao Xuan cursed in a low voice. He didn't care about hiding his figure anymore and ran out in one direction.
It happened that a few ghost wolves saw Xiao Xuan and the two of them, and while calling for friends, they chased after them desperately. In the blink of an eye, they were followed by more than thirty ghost wolves. Their green eyes were blood-red, and they seemed to be determined not to tear the two of them apart.
give up.
The quiet Wuji Mountain suddenly became lively. The two of them were like a ladle of cold water dropped into hot oil, attracting more spiritual beasts wherever they passed. In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred spiritual beasts were following behind them.
A stick of incense passed in the blink of an eye, and he didn't know where he had escaped. He only felt that the surrounding environment had become extremely unfamiliar, and the weeds and trees were obviously growing taller and stronger.
"Hey, the spirit beasts have retreated." When the two of them ran into a forest, Xiao Xuan found that the spirit beasts suddenly stopped, growled a few times and stopped chasing.
"Ha, are these beasts tired from running?" Seeing the spiritual beasts suddenly dispersed, Hou Yuhai became wild again.
"Since we all know they are beasts, how can they be tired even if you are not tired?" Xiao Xuan rolled his eyes.
At this moment, there was a sound in the forest.
"What?"
Suddenly, a half-meter-thick tree broke in front of the two of them, and a scorpion-like monster that looked about two meters quickly crawled over. The giant scorpion held a pair of powerful pincers in front of it.
The hook-shaped scorpion tail pierces the sky, and the blue light flashes, which is obviously an extremely terrifying poison.
In particular, the giant scorpion has a hard black-blue carapace, which looks like a piece of precious armor. It is so domineering when wrapped around its body. The tree trunk just now was obviously cut off by its pliers.
What chilled the two of them most was that one of the giant scorpion's pincers still had half of its body covered in blood and flesh. Xiao Xuan recognized him as a child of the Xiao family at a glance, and his heart sank, feeling cold.
roar
As soon as the giant scorpion appeared, its terrifying tail stinger flashed, and it stabbed Hou Yuhai with a faint blue afterimage. Under the momentum of the giant scorpion, Hou Yuhai was so stupid that he was so frightened that he could not move.
"Brother Hou, get away, you beast." Xiao Xuan's eyes widened, and a black demon Buddha suddenly appeared behind him. He used all his strength and slapped the scorpion's tail with his palm.
boom.
Xiao Xuan struck out with one blow, and the huge counter-shock force made his body tremble, and his feet sank into the ground. The power of the two elephants, the strong body, and the overbearing palm skills such as Vajra Palm combined in one attack, but only
Let the scorpion tail fall in a slightly biased direction.
The ground trembled, and the force of countless grass clippings splashing out actually produced bursts of roaring sounds, which shows how terrifying the power of the giant scorpion's tail sting is.
boom
At this moment, the ground where they were stabbed suddenly collapsed. Xiao and Hou felt their bodies sink, and then fell downwards. There was a shaking and the unwilling roar of the giant scorpion behind them.
call.
The cave was very deep. Xiao Xuan fell rapidly, and his heart sank. If he continued to fall at this speed, he would definitely be shattered to pieces.
Suddenly, his feet went soft, and Xiao Xuan stared in surprise. Waves of purple energy rose out of thin air from below, holding the two of them down slowly until their feet touched the ground.
"Brother Hou, how are you?" As soon as he landed, Xiao Xuan looked at Hou Yuhai who was close at hand.
"Fortunately, I didn't break into a pulp after all. If you survive the catastrophe, you will be lucky." This guy's face was actually pale, and he was obviously very frightened.
Xiao Xuan looked solemn and began to look at the surrounding environment. This was actually an underground palace, and the surrounding walls were made of star rock that was far harder than refined iron.
Unfortunately, after too many years of corrosion, no matter how hard things are, they will eventually decay. The previous dome of the underground palace was penetrated by the power of a giant scorpion's sting, and this was discovered by the two of them accidentally.
Boom
Before he could fully see the entire underground palace, a very oppressive voice came from the depths, and then the entire underground palace was turbulent. Xiao Xuan felt that his heart was tightly grasped by a big hand, and he was about to explode.
broken.
"What?" Hou Yuhai showed a painful expression and looked at Xiao Xuan in horror.
"I don't know, it sounds like the beating of a heart. Is there someone here?" Xiao Xuan's expression was ugly. If there is someone here, it must be the kind of extremely terrifying peerless strong man. It is very likely that the death of many strange beasts is related to the owner of this heart.
related.
Boom
The strange sound that almost made the heart burst came again, the two people's bodies shook for a while, and the agitated energy and blood that had just calmed down began to boil again.
"Brother, this is no place for humans. How about we evacuate?" Hou Yuhai planned to rub oil on his feet.
Xiao Xuan looked above his head and saw only the dense purple air above. He couldn't see the location of the cave entrance at all. It must be at least two hundred meters high. Unless he reached the realm of physical flight, everything would be empty talk.
"It's impossible to go back the way we came. The underground palace itself is made of hard material and we can't penetrate it with our strength. We can only look for the exit honestly."
"Go in?" Hou Yuhai was obviously a little resistant.
Xiao Xuan had no choice but to seduce: "Brother Hou, there may be some treasures in this underground palace. Judging from the age of this place, it may be a training place for some strong man."
Sure enough, Hou Yuhai showed a look of excitement, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, let's go inside and have a look."
Reaching an agreement, the two of them walked carefully towards the end of the hall. Soon they passed through the hall and came across two forked paths. On the left fork, a calm and peaceful air flowed out that made people feel physically and mentally comfortable. Feel this breath
The two of them could not help but close their eyes and be intoxicated.
The one on the right is extremely dark, as if all the light has been completely swallowed up and disappeared. There are bursts of strange smells coming from the depths of the passage. As soon as you get closer, a cold chill invades the body, making people have the urge to retreat and escape.
"What the hell is this place?" Hou Yu sea monster yelled and walked directly to the fork on the left.
Xiao Xuan frowned slightly, feeling that the matter was not that simple. Judging solely from the aura of the two forked roads, Hou Yuhai's approach was not wrong, but the flaw was so obvious that it made him uneasy.
"Brother Hou, wait a minute." Xiao Xuan frowned and said, "Don't you think these two paths are strange? They are completely the extremes of life and death. If you follow normal thinking, I believe everyone will choose the path that represents life. However,
…”
Hou Yuhai rolled his eyes and immediately laughed and said: "It seems that you are not stupid. I just tried your cleverness just now. It's not bad." This guy shamelessly patted Xiao Xuan's shoulder and walked away cautiously.
Enter the black channel on the right.
In the black fork in the road, the two of them could not go forward more than two hundred meters, and once again there were two forks in front of them, one black and one white.
"Let's go, it's the black one." Xiao Xuan waved his hand and walked over firmly.
Unknowingly, the two of them had been wandering on countless forks for several hours, but they were fine. The sound that made people's hearts almost burst never stopped, but the sound gradually became clearer.
Whenever that strange sound sounded, both Xiao Xuan and Xiao Xuan would feel angry and blood boiling, almost wanting to vomit blood.
"It seems that we are close to the deepest part of the underground palace. I hope there is a way out there." Xiao Xuan looked solemn and did not relax his vigilance at all.
Boom, boom
Just as he was thinking, the strange and terrifying sound appeared again, this time twice in a row. It contained a terrifying magic sound that the physical body could not bear. It easily penetrated Xiao Xuan's body and shook the internal organs.
