Chapter 16 Junwen’s return date has not yet been announced (Third update, 5600 words)
Under the afterglow, the figure of the young man shocked Huo Ya's heart.
If he hadn't been a veteran scavenger and replaced him with a new one, he might have been frightened even though his cultivation level was clearly higher than that of him at this moment.
Even he had some fluctuations in his heart, but he was soon suppressed by his desperado-like ferocity and wounded anger, with a strong murderous intent in his eyes.
"Little wolf, I will pull out your teeth one by one and use them as my trophies."
While Huo Ya spoke in a low voice, he pulled off his clothes, revealing his thin upper body.
He didn't pay attention to the missing ears and the wound on his chest. As his face turned red as he kneaded his hands, a fireball that was even bigger than before suddenly appeared.
Xu Qing's eyes shrank, and his body suddenly moved.
"Disperse!" Fire Crow roared, and the big fireball in his hand immediately separated and turned into five, heading straight for Xu Qing.
The roaring sound echoed instantly, the ground was covered in flames, and the burning figure of Xu Qing rushed out again, still punching two consecutive times, collapsing the barrier.
Although he would inevitably be forced back by the impact and suffer more injuries, and the high temperature of the flames would continue to burn him, his speed did not decrease at all, and his murderous intent did not decrease at all.
In this way, with this fighting method that did not care about his own injuries, he and Huo Ya started fighting in the jungle.
The war became more intense in Vietnam.
Xu Qing is indeed no match for Huo Ya.
Both psychic barriers and fireballs are very detrimental to him. The former makes it difficult to kill him at close range, and the latter is a great threat to him.
But Xu Qing's recovery ability is amazing, which allows him to recover quickly after being injured without affecting his combat effectiveness.
He also has abundant physical strength. Although the long-term pain from the body will cause mental torture, growing up in a slum has already developed a tolerance that is beyond ordinary people.
The most important thing is... it contains rich and heterogeneous spiritual energy, which has no effect on Xu Qing, but for Huo Ya, it is completely different.
The injury to his ear was fine, but the injury to his chest was getting worse. The most important thing was his psychic ability...
Even if he has cultivated to the fifth level of Qi Condensation, he cannot withstand such consumption and can only passively absorb spiritual energy to replenish it.
The fierce battle and the pressure brought by Xu Qing left him no time to relax. As a result, the heterogeneity in his body continued to rise and accumulate.
Soon Huo Yao changed from angry at the beginning to a little nervous, until finally anxiety appeared in his expression.
He had already noticed something was wrong with himself, and also noticed that there was something wrong with the young man in front of him!
If he had changed to any third level, even if it was not the third level but the same fifth level as him, he would definitely not be able to withstand the bombardment of such a fireball. He should have turned into a mummy long ago.
He asked himself that even he couldn't do this.
But the young man in front of him seemed to have serious injuries and more and more injuries, but his speed and strength did not decrease at all from the beginning to the end.
This made Huo Ya feel uneasy even more intensely.
And the heterogeneity in the body continues to increase, approaching the edge of alienation, making Huo Ya even more breathless.
"Fire Crow, you loser, fight quickly!!"
In the distance, Captain Blood Shadow, who was fighting against the Thunder Team, had to pay attention here. At this moment, seeing this scene, a roar came from the scene.
He wanted to help, but the Lei team suddenly erupted and tried to stop him, making him unable to escape. At this moment, he could only be anxious.
Team Lei had already seen that Xu Qing's tactic was to drag Fire Crow into alienation.
Although I don’t know why the opponent is confident and why he performs as usual despite the pain, everyone has their own secrets, and Team Thunder understands this, and he also has it.
So he had no idea of exploring. All he could do was to prevent the blood shadow captain in front of him from coming to help.
The battle is still going on.
Three more fireballs were fired, but the Fire Crow, who was still helpless against Xu Qing, was cursed by his captain again, and the anxiety in his heart completely exploded, forming a wave of madness.
He suddenly raised his right hand and hit it directly on his chest, spurting out a large mouthful of blood. Before it fell, he waved his left hand quickly to catch some.
The sound of a spell came out of his mouth, and the blood in his hand quickly turned black.
Xu Qing's eyes shrank, and he felt a stronger crisis. He rushed out in a flash, trying to interrupt the opponent's spellcasting.
But this time, Huo Ya's technique unfolded very quickly. At the moment Xu Qing's body moved, Huo Ya suddenly raised his head, with a distorted expression and a ferocious look in his eyes, and waved his right hand fiercely.
Immediately, the black blood in his hand expanded into a blood globule the size of his head.
The bubbles inside seemed to be boiling, roaring towards Xu Qing with astonishing power.
"Die!" Fire Crow growled ferociously.
Perhaps because this spell was too consuming, coupled with the continuous surge of heterogeneity in his body, his legs were trembling a little weakly at this moment.
The murderous intent in Xu Qing's eyes was suddenly strong. It was the same as Lei Dui's judgment. He was indeed planning to drag the opponent to alienate him, but there were also differences.
That is, Xu Qing never gave up the idea of killing him in advance in the process.
Although his dagger and iron stick are no longer in his hands, he has been looking for the opportunity to kill.
This opportunity appeared at this moment with Huo Ya's weakness.
Almost at the moment when the black blood cells roared towards him, Xu Qing's forward body speed increased sharply.
It did not rush straight towards the fire crow, but slightly shifted its direction to where the barbarian ghost's body was.
His corpse was covered with traces of being burned under the fireball range of the Fire Crow, but in addition to the corpse, there are also... the weapons of the barbarian ghost!
A mace, broken into two pieces of fine iron shield.
Xu Qing's target was the large shield.
His figure approached in an instant, and he suddenly grabbed the heavy fine iron shield. While his thin body was covered by the shield, his body also rushed out in an instant, heading straight for the Fire Crow behind the black blood ball.
The roar echoed as Fire Crow's blood ball touched Xu Qing's place and hit the shield, turning into countless black blood spurts.
The fine iron shield couldn't withstand the sudden collapse and shattering into pieces, but it still withstood most of the power.
As a result, Xu Qing who followed him was also hit with some black blood, but it was not fatal. At this moment, he gritted his teeth and his speed did not slow down, without stopping at all. It turned into a residual mark, approaching the fire crow like an arrow.
There was sarcasm in Huo Ya's eyes, and he did not dodge. As he made a fist with his hands, the black blood spread behind Xu Qing was rapidly rising from the ground drop by drop. It seemed that it would not take long before all of it would be lifted into the air and turned into blood arrows.
.
All this left Xu Qing with no place to retreat, but he had no intention of retreating.
As he approached, he made a fist with his left hand, but it was his right hand that struck, and the punch landed.
boom!
There were cracks in the psychic barrier outside Huo Ya's body, and Xu Qing's right fist was also splattered with blood at this moment, mixed with some scaly flesh and blood.
Before Huo Ya could see clearly, Xu Qing's eyes turned red and he punched a second time.
With a bang, the barrier collapsed and fell into pieces, and a huge impact spread from the inside, pushing Xu Qing's body forward. As before, he could not get any closer without being pushed away by the impact.
The sarcasm in Fire Crow's eyes became even stronger, but at this moment!
Xu Qing's body seemed to have gained a little more energy out of thin air.
In the impact of this wall being torn apart, he was not forced back as before.
Instead, he rushed forward suddenly, shouldering the impact, stretched out his right hand, and scratched the bloody part of Huo Ya's chest where the iron stick had penetrated.
It seemed that the extra strength only gave Xu Qing the power to grab hold of the fire crow. Although he opened the wound of the fire crow, he was unable to inflict a fatal blow to it and could only quickly retreat at this moment.
Fire Crow's expression also changed, and he staggered back.
Realizing that Xu Qing's grasp did not pose much threat to him, he grinned and was about to cast a spell to cause black blood to shoot out.
But in the next moment, his expression changed again and he lowered his head suddenly.
In the bloody mess on his chest...there were some broken tooth fragments and scaly flesh.
At the same time, the flesh and blood at the wound location was corroding, bursts of poisonous blood overflowed from the inside, and wherever it passed, the skin rotted rapidly.
The unbearable severe pain surged out at this moment, causing the fire crow to let out a shrill scream, with an unprecedented look of horror on its face.
As he continued to retreat, he saw Xu Qing squatting there in the distance. From the palm of his outstretched right hand, many pieces of the same flesh and broken teeth were thrown out.
If these pieces of meat and broken teeth can be pieced together, it will look like a snake head.
It was the highly venomous snake head that Xu Qing used to dispose of the corpse.
His left hand was trembling slightly at this moment, and he slowly stretched it out. After pieces of amber fragments fell, he revealed the ghost-faced scorpion tail that had penetrated deeply into the palm of his hand!
The former makes his palms contain poison, and the latter gives him the power to attack under the impact of the barrier!
"You..." Fire Crow trembled, unable to speak any words while wailing, let alone cast a spell.
His eyes showed a strong fear of death, and he struggled to wipe off the poisonous blood on his body, but the poisonous blood spilled out in large quantities, causing his physical strength and vitality to drain away rapidly.
Xu Qing took a deep breath. The recovery of the purple crystal during the battle at Fat Mountain made him know that he could resolve poison.
The fact that the right hand stained with snake venom has not been corroded shows everything.
This is the killing blow he prepared for Fire Crow.
At this moment, he stood up and went straight to Fire Crow.
Seeing Xu Qing's arrival, the panic in Huo Ya's eyes turned into despair, and he struggled back, letting out painful wails.
"Captain, save me!!"
This tragic scene made Captain Blood Shadow, who was fighting with Team Lei, open his eyes wide and determined to save him. However, the obstruction caused by Team Lei's actions made it difficult for him to pass.
All I could do was watch Xu Qing's figure quickly approach the Fire Crow.
But during this close encounter, Huo Ya's physical injuries and mental collapse caused a strong heterogeneity to accumulate in his body, which he could no longer suppress.
Before Xu Qing could get close enough, his body suddenly stiffened in despair, and the foreign matter spread throughout his body, and with a bang... turned into a blood mist.
Some people are alienated and leave behind black and blue corpses, while others explode into blood mist.
Xu Qing paused and looked at the place where the fire crow turned into blood mist. He turned his head and looked coldly at the Blood Shadow Captain who was fighting with the Thunder Team.
The sun was setting at this moment, but the dusk in the sky was different from before. There was no night, and the whole sky was glowing with a strange red.
Under this red cloud, Xu Qing's figure was also exaggerated. He stood there with scars all over his body, and his cold eyes seemed to exude an indescribable oppression.
This oppression caused Captain Blood Shadow, whose cultivation level exceeded his, to be greatly shaken.
Fire Crow's death was really too tragic, and it had a great impact on Captain Blood Shadow's heart.
The long battle with the Thunder Team, coupled with Xu Qing's evil spirit, all made the Blood Shadow Captain uneasy. At this moment, his eyes flashed. At the moment when Xu Qing saw it, he punched away the Thunder Team without a trace.
Without hesitation, his body quickly retreated.
He didn't want to fight.
Captain Lei wanted to chase him, but when he looked up and saw the strange red color in the sky, his complexion suddenly changed, his emotions seemed to fluctuate, blood spurted out, and his body became more and more black and shaky.
Xu Qing walked over quickly and helped Lei Dui.
Xu Qing put Captain Lei aside under a big tree while he was panting, and looked up at Captain Blood Shadow who was galloping in the jungle in the distance, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.
"Don't chase him alone. He has been wiped out by the blood shadow group. He is no longer a hero. Especially the red color in the sky. I seem to have seen it before..."
Captain Lei grabbed Xu Qing, raised his head and stared at the sky.
"He is a hidden danger." Xu Qing said slowly.
He didn't like any hidden dangers, and in this restricted jungle, Xu Qing felt that he was sure of dragging the blood shadow captain to death just like dragging the fire crow to death, but Captain Lei's words made him instinctively raise his head and look at the sky.
at this time……
A faint song, like a sigh, floated through the jungle.
All the strange beasts in the forbidden jungle disappeared in this instant.
In the silent jungle, the song became clearer and clearer.
It was as if a woman was resenting her husband as she walked away. As the echo reverberated, bursts of light red mist appeared from the distance where the blood shadow captain was galloping.
It wraps up everything around it and spreads out.
Xu Qing's body shook violently. Lei Dui, who was sitting next to him leaning against a big tree, also trembled for a moment. Both of them looked at the place where the singing was coming from.
It's just that the former is extremely vigilant, while the latter... is a little dazed.
The song kept drifting and fell into Xu Qing's ears, causing his whole body to feel an indescribable coldness, as if he was in the icy rain of blood that once ruined the city.
Even if he is currently at the third level of body refining, he cannot bear it. His teeth begin to chatter and his body loses the ability to move.
Xu Qing's heart was pounding, and his mind couldn't help but think of the taboos in the restricted area that Cross mentioned when entering the restricted area.
And where they were watching, Captain Blood Shadow's body also paused, and his body was visibly trembling.
It seemed as if something invisible was approaching him, making him lose the strength to escape.
As Xu Qing witnessed with his own eyes, wisps of white air flew out from the trembling blood shadow captain's seven orifices and merged into the diffuse blood mist.
During this process, Captain Blood Shadow's body rapidly decayed and withered until it turned into a mummy and was shattered into dust, with no trace left.
The fog covered the place where it was located, spreading toward Xu Qing and Team Lei.
As the fog got closer, Xu Qing's body trembled, and he finally saw the source of Captain Blood Shadow's death, which was... a pair of bright red women's boots, very damaged.
"This is..." Xu Qing breathed quickly and his eyes widened. He saw the pair of boots appearing in front of the mist in the distance, moving on the soil on their own, walking towards them step by step.
The boots were completely empty...only the resentful singing was getting closer and closer.
It was as if there was an invisible woman, wearing these red boots, singing and walking.
The singing became clearer and clearer, and the blood-red boots were walking on the soil, in the direction of Xu Qing.
This strange scene made Xu Qing's eyes shrink strongly, and his body wanted to move, but was unable to do so.
It was as if the ice had frozen everything in him, causing his teeth to chatter. He watched helplessly as the blood-colored boots walked half a foot away from him step by step...
The threat of death covered all thoughts in Xu Qing's heart at this moment. He wanted to retreat, but was unable to do anything. Only the large amount of bloodshot eyes appearing in his eyes revealed his fierce struggle at this moment.
And those blood-colored shoes were about to take another step towards him, but at this moment...a trembling voice came from beside Xu Qing, it was Captain Lei.
"Tao Hong... is that you..." The voice was hoarse, with a trembling tone, and a hint of uncertainty.
The moment these words appeared, the strange singing suddenly stopped.
The boots raised on the side paused for a moment and then slowly changed direction, as if the woman standing there turned around and looked at Team Lei.
Seeing this scene, Captain Lei's body was visibly trembling, and his breathing was faster than ever before. His exhausted body burst out with spare energy at this moment, his eyes showed an unprecedented light, and he stared closely at the empty space on those boots.
It was as if in his eyes, he could see a woman who was as important to him as his own life, standing there.
Across the void, across the world, across yin and yang, we looked at each other.
As strong as the Thunder Team, tears flowed uncontrollably from my eyes at this moment.
"Are you... back..." He raised his hand tremblingly, as if to grab something, and the pair of red boots slowly lifted up and walked in front of Lei Dui, bending slightly.
It was as if the invisible woman knelt down gently in front of Lei Dui, allowing Lei Dui's trembling hands to touch her face.
But Captain Lei's hand passed through the void and touched nothing. He fell in vain, and the tears... more.
Only the murmurs in the mouth are desolate in this melancholy.
Until a long time, it seemed as if a woman's sigh came from the void, and the pair of red boots slowly stopped bending and gradually retreated.
It wasn't until they were three feet away that they changed direction, bypassed Xu Qing, and walked towards the distance with the red mist behind them.
You asked about the date of return, but there was no date.
The mist hides the lingering emotions, and the smoke sings far away.
The singing continued to be heard, and the resentment seemed to be filled with bitterness and melancholy, going further and further away.
The blood-colored mist also bypassed them, seeming to flow, spreading toward the distance.
Until the singing became weaker and weaker, until...the fog completely disappeared, and the singing slowly dissipated.
At this moment, Xu Qing's body finally resumed action. He was breathing rapidly, with a look of horror in his eyes. He immediately turned around and looked at Team Lei who was sitting there.
At this moment, Captain Lei was staring blankly into the distance, with tears silently flowing in his eyes.
Xu Qing was silent. The words he originally wanted to ask could not be uttered at this moment.
Until a long time, Lei Dui murmured softly.
"Aren't you weird?"
Xu Qing nodded silently.
"Shizi told you before that I am one of the few people who has heard singing." Lei Dui looked into the distance and whispered slowly.
"You know, the singing in this restricted area is very weird. Most of the people who hear it die, but the people who can survive the singing are extremely rare."
"But once he survives, then this person will receive a 'gift' from this restricted area, which will allow him to see the person he most wants to see in his life the next time he hears singing."
"I thought this was just a legend. For this legend, I waited silently in the camp outside for decades, until my hair turned white...
"To this day, I have seen it."
When Lei Dui said this, he seemed to have aged a lot. The wrinkles on his face were piled up, and a feeling of weakness pervaded his body.
"Do you also have a yin and yang, the person you want to see... If so, don't imitate me, don't wait here..."
"I saw it, but it was all in vain..." Captain Lei murmured bitterly and closed his eyes. Tears couldn't stop running down the wrinkles on his face and falling on his clothes.
Xu Qing was silent, raising his head and looking at the place where the singing disappeared, a trace of recollection gradually emerged in the depths of his eyes.
He also has people he wants to see.
Someone who I really want, really, really want.
----------
When writing this chapter, I also asked myself, I also have relatives I want to see...
Don’t say such melancholy words, brothers and sisters, the explosion of nearly 15,000 words is almost equal to the volume of my previous five-minute explosion.
