Ye Chen's words were also heard by the dozen or so Qigong practitioners accompanying him.
When they think of that guy Li Xiang, everyone has mixed emotions.
This time the beasts attacked and Yangcheng almost fell. It was Li Xiang who single-handedly saved them and the 300,000 people of Yangcheng.
So when they learned that Li Xiang was alone in the forest, everyone immediately flew out of the city lord's palace. In order to catch up with Li Xiang as soon as possible, they even used luxury goods such as magical talismans.
Li Xiang is extremely talented, and even looking at the entire Kyushu, he is one of the few geniuses in the world, but after all, he has just entered the second level, and it is still very dangerous to wander alone in this dangerous forest.
What's more, there is a third-level demon king in this forest.
The terrifying existence that can drive millions of ferocious beasts has probably reached the third level, sixth level or even seventh level.
Regardless of whether it is a returning human being or a returning monster beast, the higher the level, the greater the difference in strength.
Although it is difficult for first-level warriors to kill second-level monsters, most of those talented monsters can do it.
However, the level of difficulty for a second-level Qi Refiner to leapfrog and fight against a third-level Demon King increases exponentially.
For someone like Li Xiang who has just entered the second level, it is almost impossible to succeed against a third level, sixth or seventh level demon king.
There has never been such a record in history.
It was not easy for Yangcheng to give birth to such a genius and evildoer. If he died young, they Qi Refiners would become the sinners of Yangcheng and even the entire Jiuzhou.
Therefore, before leaving, the Lord of the City issued a death order. If they did not bring Li Xiang back alive, they would not be able to return to Yangcheng.
"That guy Xiao Li..." Luo Heng felt complicated, "Can't you really just be more at peace?"
"I think he is born in the Year of the Rabbit and is very capable of jumping." Ma Zhiyuan said.
Next to him, Xu Wencheng's face was solemn and his brows were knitted into knots. "Everyone, please stop talking and concentrate. This place is not more dangerous than the city, it is more dangerous than the battlefield..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gray shadow and dark red light flashed across, hitting Xu Wencheng's face.
Xu Wencheng reacted very quickly and reached out to pat him like lightning.
puff.
After a slight explosion, he hit an insect the size of a quail egg. Its bulging belly burst open and blood flowed out.
The insect blood stained the palm of Xu Wencheng's hand and immediately corroded the skin, emitting white smoke and making a sizzling sound.
It was just a piercing blow, and the skin and flesh on Xu Wencheng's palms ulcerated, exposing the white bones of his hands. Then, the white bones began to turn blue and black, as if they were burned by fire.
The severe pain caused Xu Wencheng to break out in cold sweat on his forehead.
Before he and everyone else could react.
A flash of silver light flashed.
Half of Xu Wencheng's arms were severed.
The severed arm fell into the grass and rolled dozens of meters away.
Everyone looked at the person who made the move in horror.
"Commissioner Ye, you..."
Ye Chen's face was solemn, "I didn't bring any medicine to treat blood-eating mosquito venom."
Upon hearing the words "blood-eating mosquito", several Qi-refiners suddenly turned pale.
Although the Blood-devouring Mosquito is only a first-level ferocious beast, its whole body is full of poison. Once it is stained, the venom will spread along the blood vessels and meridians throughout the body. Even second-level Qi Refiners like them can hardly withstand this fierce and overbearing poison.
.
In just a few moments, the arm that fell to the ground turned into a pool of pus.
Everyone's scalp went numb for a while.
The scariest thing about blood-eating mosquitoes is not their toxicity, but...the fact that they live in groups.
When you see a blood-eating mosquito, it means there are hundreds or even thousands of blood-eating mosquitoes around.
When I think of this.
Xu Wencheng's face turned even paler.
Buzz buzz!
Intense shouts sounded.
Dense red light spots appeared in all directions.
Hundreds of blood-eating mosquitoes smelled the smell of blood and swooped over. Under their translucent wings, there were huge and shriveled blood sacs, glowing with a reddish light, looking like red lanterns.
"Let's go!" Xu Wencheng shouted loudly.
"There are these ghost things everywhere, where are we going?" A Qi Refiner from the Nancheng Defense Force looked anxious.
"Go east, let me find a breakthrough!" Xu Wenguo ordered decisively.
"Okay!" Ma Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and thrust out a golden spear. The tip of the spear trembled rapidly, rubbing against the air and burning red.
Dozens of red gun tip afterimages appeared, and wherever they passed, blood-eating mosquitoes exploded and burned, emitting bursts of red smoke.
"Let's go!" Ma Zhiyuan took the lead and ran out, each with one shot, as fierce as fire, as fast as wind, and extremely fast.
But there were too many Blood-devouring Mosquitoes. Even before the ones burned and exploded by the tip of the spear hit the ground, more Blood-devouring Mosquitoes had already flown over.
"Follow up quickly!"
Xu Wencheng shouted loudly and led everyone to form a long snake formation and follow behind Ma Zhiyuan.
The Qi Refiners sacrificed their magic weapons and performed spells. Suddenly, in this long snake formation, the wind roared, thunder bursts, and fire snakes danced. Wherever they passed, hundreds of blood-eating mosquitoes exploded.
Death.
However, the good times did not last long, as beads of sweat oozed from Ma Zhiyuan's forehead, his face turned pale, and his breathing became heavier and heavier.
"Lao Ma, are you okay?" Xu Wencheng asked worriedly.
Ma Zhiyuan returned to his ancestor Ma Chao of Xiliang in the first level. He was physically strong. After entering the second level, he often struggled with his muscles and bones. At this time, he was just using his spear to clear the way. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so difficult.
Ma Zhiyuan took a few breaths and felt that the alloy spear in his hand was as heavy as a ten thousand stone. "Everything is fine, just a little, phew, tired..."
"I also feel inexplicably tired." Nie Zhu was sweating like rain, and her combat uniform was soaked and clung to her body, making her figure even more uneven.
The faces of the qigong masters around them all didn't look good either.
At this moment, a qi-refiner from the West City Defense Army lost his strength and was in a daze for a moment. He was bitten in the face by a blood-eating mosquito, wailing in pain.
His face was festering at a speed visible to the naked eye, his flesh and blood were blurred, and he was rolling on the ground in pain.
Someone nearby wanted to help, but was grabbed by his companion.
With a pop, a dagger pierced the Qi Refiner's heart, ending his pain and life.
The feeling of killing Pao Ze with his own hands was not pleasant. Xu Wencheng's face was so gloomy that it almost dripped with water.
Ye Chen casually threw out a jade bottle with more than a dozen bean pills, and immediately flew in front of everyone, "There is a miasma here. Take the poison-suppressing pill and leave here quickly!"
"Captain Ma, please step back and I will clear the way!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen flashed and came to Ma Zhiyuan, then flicked his fingers, and pieces of bright yellow talisman paper, connected end to end, flew out in a long line.
Boom boom boom.
The talismans exploded one after another, the flames exploded, and the heat wave swept across and impacted. Hundreds of meters ahead, not only the blood-eating mosquitoes along the way were completely burned, but even the trees were uprooted and fell to the sides.
A wide avenue appears ahead.
The crowd didn't dare to stop, so they sped up and ran.
Unfortunately, during the escape, two more Qi Refiners fell behind and became the blood prey of the blood-eating mosquitoes.
Finally leaving those blood-eating mosquitoes far behind, everyone stopped and gasped for air.
Xu Wencheng frowned deeply and looked toward the dark forest ahead.
Since they left the city, they have only traveled more than thirty kilometers, and they have already lost three people. If they go further, they are afraid that all of them will be lost in the deep mountains and dense forests.
