Chapter 145 Sky-Destroying Thunder Beast
This went on and on for ten days.
Because the difference in strength between them was not very big, after three or two trials, Su Ziyi mastered the attack routine of the Thunder Beast, and his footwork became more flexible. The Thunder Beast's lightning strikes from behind were basically unable to touch Su Ziyi's body. However, he was injured several times by Su Ziyi.
This made the Sky Thunder Beast very angry. Every time Su Ziyi reappeared, his eyes would sparkle with irritation, and he would pounce on him without even thinking.
But Su Ziyi actually didn't feel comfortable either.
The monster's physical strength was much stronger than his. Even if he used ghostly footwork to get close to the Sky Thunder Beast, it would be difficult for him to break through the defense of the fur on the opponent's back with the long iron sword in his hand. On the contrary, he was burned by the flashing electric current over and over again, or was injured by the opponent's quick reaction and the absolute strength of his body.
In general, his sword skills have improved a lot in the past ten days, but he has also suffered a lot more injuries.
After taking a deep breath, Su Ziyi opened his eyes and ended his practice. He took an internal look at the condition inside his body and found that some of the major injuries caused during yesterday's fight with the Sky Thunder Beast were almost healed, leaving only some hidden injuries that needed to be expunged after he returned to Qixia Town to prepare the medicinal solution.
He frowned and counted the elixirs in the storage bag, and found that he had almost used the rejuvenation elixirs and nourishing qi powder. If he was injured one or two more times, he might not be able to use the elixirs. This situation really gave him a headache, especially when he saw that his Fantie sword had been chewed out by the Thunder Beast's teeth.
It seems that he needs to go back.
In addition to the shortage of supplies, the aristocratic family is also a big problem. Although Su Ziyi didn't find any traces of other people in the forest in the past few days, so much time had passed, and it was time for people from the aristocratic family to come. So he waved the broken long sword in his hand, and Su Ziyi calmed down, his eyes full of determination - this time, it was time to make a break with the Thunder Beast.
After returning his body to its best condition, Su Ziyi ignored the dark clouds in the sky and walked towards the Thunder Beast's lair with familiarity.
Thanks to his fight with the Sky Thunder Beast during these days, no part of the ground near the Sky Thunder Beast's lair was intact. It was full of black potholes. As soon as a person stepped on it, the black soil immediately broke into pieces. Debris stained the sole of the shoe. The surrounding trees were also damaged, but compared to the land, which was just broken branches and leaves, it was much better.
Su Ziyi's several harassments also made the Thunder Beast a little bit too much.
Although it succeeded in driving Su Ziyi away every time, Su Ziyi put more and more pressure on it, causing more and more injuries, and its body began to feel weak. This made it very irritable. It wanted to catch the other party, but because the other party's footwork was too weird, it couldn't be touched at all. Small handfuls of flames kept gathering in its heart, and finally merged into a sea of fire. When he smelled a familiar smell, he got out of the nest without thinking.
But this time, Su Ziyi did not step back, but moved forward with his sword, confronting the opponent head-on!
The sharp claw tip scratched across the body of the long sword, and with a "clang" sound, a layer of sparks flew out, causing the white claw tip of the Sky Thunder Beast to smell like it was burning. It immediately wanted to retract the tips of its claws, but their speed was too fast. Before it could make a move, Su Ziyi passed him by, rushed directly a few feet away, and crushed the piece of black debris with his foot. The soil turned into fine powder and stuck to his shoes and trousers.
After Su Ziyi stopped his momentum of rushing forward, he immediately turned around and held the sword in his hand diagonally in front of him, just in time to block the sharp blow of the Thunder Beast that jumped over through the trunk of the tree. The fierce look in his eyes did not diminish, and he immediately exerted force on his right wrist. The spiritual energy wrapped around the sword suddenly strengthened by three points again, which directly shocked the gums of the Thunder Beast that had just bitten the sword to bleed with blood.
The pain in the tender parts of the body was the most unbearable for the Sky Thunder Beast. The hairs on its back instantly stood up, and a bright white electric light swept directly from the tip of its tail and from its head. Without thinking, Su Ziyi raised his foot and kicked the opponent hard in the abdomen. At the same time, he used the enhanced spiritual power to turn the hilt of the sword and broke the left fang of the Sky Thunder Beast in an instant. The pain was so painful that it could no longer maintain its strength. The current was running, and Su Ziyi kicked him out, flying upside down and breaking a waist-thick tree.
And this series of fights only happened in a few breaths.
When he saw the opponent being kicked out and hit on the head by him, and was so dazed that he couldn't turn over for a moment, Su Ziyi took a deep breath and felt the pain in his wrist at the same time. But before he could use his spiritual power to ease the stinging pain, he heard a "click" sound from the sword in his hand, and it shattered into several pieces before Su Ziyi's eyes and fell to the ground. Only half of it remained in Su Ziyi's hand. On hand.
It was better now. The weapon that had accompanied him in his solo fight in the Fallen Immortal Forest for so long finally couldn't stand the rough treatment and left.
At this time, the Sky Thunder Beast also woke up. It turned over on its side, shook its brain that was a little congested from the impact, lowered its front slightly and roared at Su Ziyi, and immediately kicked up the black dust on the ground. Getting up, Su Ziyi had to squint his eyes. And it took this opportunity to rush forward again, and the electricity on its back kept crackling.
In such a situation, Su Ziyi had to retreat.
The sword in his hand was less than half an arm's length, and it was not as sharp as a dagger, so he waved it in his hand, and Su Ziyi immediately threw it into the storage bag, and then used his spiritual energy to pick up a few pieces of dirt from the ground. blocks, wrapped them with spiritual energy, and smashed them straight into the eyes of the Thunder Beast.
Such small clods of earth are not enough to look at in the eyes of the Sky Thunder Beast. It does not hide away, but directly shakes up the electric current on its back. In an instant, it controls one or two small electric currents to smash the opponent into powder, even if it is close to its body. It's too late. But this finally caused some black powder to fly in the air and float into its eyes, causing it to stop its forward momentum and blink desperately.
After Su Ziyi dodged the blow, he immediately put his consciousness into the storage bag. He remembered that he had found some spiritual treasures in the storage bag. But when his consciousness swept over them one by one, he found that there was none that he could use. They were either daggers that were too short or extremely heavy swords. There were even some weird-looking spiritual treasures inside, like chains or... Bells and the like.
In short, there is no sword.
This made Su Ziyi look very bad, and he never thought that he would encounter such a thing temporarily. It's just that at this point, it's impossible for him to retreat and escape. It's just that he doesn't know much about magic, and those can't help him defeat the Thunder Beast, so for a while, he had to be driven up and down by the Thunder Beast.
Another bolt of lightning struck at Su Ziyi's feet, burning two holes in his originally dirty cloth shoes. Su Ziyi's eyes immediately became filled with murderous intent. He looked up at the menacing Sky Thunder Beast. After seeing the increasingly shining colors on the opponent's back, he realized that the opponent was now planning a big move.
Without thinking, he stepped on the ground with his toes and flew up. As soon as he soared into the air, the Thunder Beast, which was less than five or six feet away from him, immediately raised its head to the sky and roared. The roar made the entire forest tremble, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to have formed a whirlpool. .
Then I saw a flash of white light from the Sky Thunder Beast's back, and an extremely dazzling white ball of light exploded from its back, radiating around in circles. Wherever it passed, all the black soil on the ground was shattered. It turned into extremely fine dust, and the occasional surviving weeds seemed to have been drained of moisture in an instant, turning into a black piece, and then immediately broke into several sections. Before they even hit the ground, the air left Turned into fine ash.
This attack from the Sky Thunder Beast is simply terrifying!
Su Ziyi's face changed greatly as he soared into the air. Because there was no place to stay in the air, he hurriedly took out a few empty wooden boxes from his storage bag and scattered them at his feet. Then he floated back with the force of the lightness and fled in an instant. Arriving in the woods at the edge of the clearing. But the wooden box he used to borrow strength was directly caught up by the electric coil, and instantly ignited into a ball of fire. It fell to the ground with a "pop" and burned quickly.
It was not safe for Su Ziyi to jump into the tree, because the speed of the electric coil was so fast that it ignited the weeds under the tree almost as soon as Su Ziyi landed firmly. Su Ziyi had to retreat again, retreating nearly ten feet in a row. When they arrived here, the electric circle that was so fierce just now dispersed and disappeared. Only the vegetation left in the circle began to burst into flames, igniting a wall of fire between Su Ziyi and the Thunder Beast.
The Sky Thunder Beast didn't expect that its move would not even touch Su Ziyi.
This move is its killing move. It has always been invincible before, but unexpectedly, it was snatched away by the little bug that has been provoking it in recent days. Immediately, its mind was filled with anger, but the weakness in its body told it that this was not a good time to pursue, so after hesitating for a while, the Thunder Beast immediately prepared to run away.
And how could Su Ziyi, who had been standing at a high place, not notice its little movements?
After he saw the Sky Thunder Beast trying to escape, he immediately realized that the move just now was also a very heavy load for the Sky Thunder Beast, and I am afraid that the opponent was also severely short-changed at this time. Therefore, he directly broke off a tree branch at hand, used the branch as a sword, stepped on the tree trunk, crossed the sea of fire at his feet, and chased after him.
As soon as the Sky Thunder Beast moved, those electric circles disappeared immediately, which allowed Su Ziyi to follow without any hindrance.
When he saw that the other party did not run towards the lair, but instead ran towards the dense forest on the other side, he knew that he had to stop the other party immediately. He picked up the tree branch he was holding in his right hand with his left hand, and immediately picked up all the small branches on it into the palm of his hand, then wrapped it in spiritual energy like throwing clods of soil before, and shot it straight towards the opponent's butt!
Although the Sky Thunder Beast was somewhat short-changed, only a few branches could not do anything to it. It just jumped forward and avoided most of the branches. Even if a small part of the branch hits the opponent, it cannot break through the defense of the opponent's fur and is directly ballistic to the ground, without any delay effect.
When Su Ziyi saw it, his face darkened.
He naturally knew what the problem was, so he immediately took out the dagger that had been thrown into the storage bag and threw it out in the same way. This time, it had the desired effect, directly scratching the inner skin of the opponent's left hind leg, causing the opponent to stumble forward immediately in pain.
Su Ziyi took this opportunity to close the distance with the other party. After the other party regained his footing, the distance between them was less than ten feet away. He was so happy that he immediately landed on the ground. But at this moment, the Sky Thunder Beast, which had been acting in a panic, suddenly stood up, and its tail that had been invisible behind it swung straight towards Su Ziyi's face. !
Now, how could Su Ziyi not expect that the other party was actually pretending!
Since there was no way to avoid it, he stopped hiding and stretched out his left hand to catch the tail. A bright red blood mark appeared on the palm of his hand. Then, under the action of the electric current that followed the tail, his skin burned. It all turned black. When Su Ziyi noticed its intention, he immediately pulled his wrist back hard. The pain caused it to immediately interrupt the current output, preventing his entire hand from turning into coke.
But his strength was always no match for the monster's strength, so after the opponent yanked hard, not only was there no tail left, but the wound in his palm became larger, and a piece of blood covered the blackened skin. , so shocking.
At this time, the Sky Thunder Beast stopped pretending, opened its mouth and bit Su Ziyi. Because of the previous ultimate move, its body was severely depleted, so it could only use this method to subdue Su Ziyi at this time, but it believed that the little bug in front of it probably didn't have much spiritual power left in its body.
It was indeed correct.
But it never expected that Su Ziyi would always have pills with him.
After a Qi-Yi Dan enters the stomach, the spiritual energy in the body immediately begins to recover. Although the speed is very slow, it is very effective. Su Ziyi dodged the Sky Thunder Beast's attack without showing a look of frustration on his face. He just raised the tree branch in his hand and poured the spiritual power into the opponent according to the inner texture of the opponent. Then he looked at the opponent who rushed towards him again very calmly. The Sky Thunder Beast then swung the tree branch forward in his hand and just hit the opponent's cheek.
"Ouch--" The twitch of the tree branch left a blood mark on the opponent's cheek, making the opponent whimper in pain. At this time, Su Ziyi's eyes turned cold, and he raised the tree branch again and swung it in the same direction. In an instant, he left several blood marks on the face of the Sky Thunder Beast, which had not recovered, and just as the Sky Thunder Beast reacted He came over and looked at Su Ziyi with a fierce look on his face. When he was about to close his wide-open mouth, a big hand directly pinched its upper jaw, and with strong spiritual energy, he lifted it up, and in an instant, his two jaws were The joints were broken!
The Sky Thunder Beast couldn’t believe it!
But even if he didn't believe it, Su Ziyi had already appeared in front of it, ignoring the damage caused by the sharp corner of its mouth to his left hand, and without blinking, he stabbed the branch in his right hand into the mouth of the Thunder Beast! In an instant, a sticky liquid rushed into the Thunder Beast's throat. It also felt that all the strength in its body was slowly disappearing as if it had been drained. The last thing it saw in its eyes was that it finally came from heavy raindrops squeezed down from layers of clouds.
Chapter 146 Strange situation in the forest
When stabbing the opponent's throat, Su Ziyi also left a hole in the palm of his left hand.
The summer rain came in torrents, and the blood stains on their bodies were instantly washed away. The black powder scattered on the ground was re-glued together, and small ravines were washed out by the rain.
Su Ziyi's shoulders relaxed, and his whole body collapsed.
Regardless of the dirt, he sat on the ground and gasped for air. There was a hint of disbelief in his eyes as he looked at the body of the Sky Thunder Beast. He could not imagine that he had killed the other person. You must know that the dangerous move he made at that time was entirely because he had no choice. He did not expect that the outer layer of the Thunder Beast was so hard, but the inner tissue was so soft and fragile, and he would kill it with one strike.
But no matter what, as long as he survives.
The rain was so heavy that he was drenched in almost the blink of an eye. After taking a breath, he used the spiritual energy in his body to heal the wound, and then stuffed the last rejuvenation pill into his mouth. The blood hole in his hand immediately stopped bleeding. Despite the pressure caused by the heavy rain, he stuffed the Thunder Beast's body into the storage bag, squinted and found the broken sword sections, and then returned into the forest.
He needed a warm place to heal.
Summer rain comes and goes quickly. By the time Su Ziyi returned to the thorn jungle with a pale face, the rain had stopped. Because the leaves of the thorn jungle were too dense, there was little water in the place where he camped. The clothes he was wearing were almost like a rag. After taking off the same clothes, he immediately lit a bonfire and meditated to recuperate.
In the battle with the Sky Thunder Beast, he gained a lot, and now he needs to spend time sorting it out.
He spent a whole day and night just meditating, and the firewood in the campfire had been burned to ashes. Opening his eyes, Su Ziyi felt the spiritual energy rolling in the veins in his body, and found with satisfaction that his current strength had reached the late stage of the ninth level of Qi refining. This result obviously made his trip to the Fallen Immortal Forest a complete success. period.
So, early the next morning, Su Ziyi set off back to Qixia Town.
Su Ziyi still remembered the way he came, so he didn't find another way and returned directly to the park road. But when I passed the place where the thin old man died, I was still worried and prepared to stop and take a look. As a result, I found the fur and blood of a wild dog in the nearby woods. Look at the traces left by the fight and the disappeared body. , Su Ziyi knew without even thinking that this was the work of a cultivator.
His heart sank, and he realized that the people from the noble family had returned, but they didn't know it since they didn't find any clues.
On the next road, Su Ziyi was even more careful. Because of his caution, he discovered more fresh traces. He silently bypassed the area where people were moving, and did not go back to the place where he originally entered the inner layer. He plunged directly into the middle layer, only in Before entering the middle floor, he took the dagger from the storage bag and held it in his back.
Although it is not very handy, it is better than nothing.
Entering the middle layer, the aura of the cultivator becomes stronger and stronger. Su Ziyi never expected that these cultivators did not go to the inner layer, but hunted in the middle layer. He hid himself with the Qi Condensing Pill and the thick miasma, hiding in the dark and observing a group of people hunting a The practitioners of Wa Zhi are not very high, and their highest level is only the sixth level of Qi Refining. Therefore, when facing Wa Zhi who is comparable to the seventh level of Qi Refining, it is inevitable that they will be a little confused.
But Su Ziyi did not pay attention to the details of their fight, but attached his spiritual consciousness to their clothes. These people are different from the children of aristocratic families. The clothes they wear are not the same. Instead, they are colorful and have different styles. The only thing they have in common is that they all have an axe-shaped jade pendant with hollow patterns hanging on their waists.
After thinking for a moment, Su Ziyi guessed that this was probably the Dayue practitioner of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance.
He kept the appearance of the jade pendant in mind and prepared to leave quietly. Just when he was about to leave, his consciousness suddenly noticed an interesting movement. His eyes looked at the other layer of thick miasma, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. Then he stopped staying and moved out with his spiritual energy.
And less than half a cup of tea after he left, a fierce sound of killing came from the place where he had just settled.
Su Ziyi didn't think about what it would be like for those cultivators to be surrounded by a group of nightmare frogs. In short, they just couldn't die. After all, there were a group of aristocratic families nearby who were better than Da Yue. No matter what the reason was, For such a purpose, people from aristocratic families would never ignore death. So after leaving that place, Su Ziyi put the matter behind him.
The middle layer has a wide range. Although there are not many types of monsters, there are also a lot of them relying on the natural protective layer of miasma. Therefore, no matter how careful Su Ziyi is along the way, he still inevitably encounters monsters. Fortunately, his cultivation level is higher than that of the second-level monsters. Although he is injured, there are no dangers along the way. On the contrary, he is storing things. There were a few more corpses of monsters in the bag.
Finally, when it got dark, Su Ziyi finally left the middle layer and returned to the outer layer.
Although the outer layer of trees is not as good as the inner layer, it is still dark when you walk inside. As soon as Su Ziyi landed, he was a little confused to identify the direction. He remembered where he put the things Bian Qing prepared for him when he left the outer layer? He tugged at the clothes that already smelled sour, eager to find the luggage he had hidden in the outer layer.
After climbing to the top of the tree a few times, Su Ziyi could only see the vast forest sea with the help of the afterglow of the setting sun, and could not identify the direction at all.
So in the end, he had no choice but to fall down from the tree, find a water source and light a bonfire, planning to rest here for the night. He took a bath in the pool three times, washed his clothes that were already full of holes, and dried them aside. Then he settled down and meditated.
However, he may have been in conflict with the outer layer of the Fallen Immortal Forest. The spiritual energy in his body had only circulated for about ten small weeks before there was a sound of thin footsteps passing through the bushes and heading straight towards him.
Immediately, Su Ziyi opened his eyes and clasped one hand on the dagger. When his spiritual consciousness checked, he found that they were just a few ordinary warriors, and then he relaxed his tense arm muscles slightly. He thought that these people were driven away by monsters again, but when his consciousness continued to check, he found that things were not what he thought at all.
I saw another group of people not far behind these people. They held torches in one hand and swords in the other. They chased behind them aggressively, and occasionally shouted at the people in front to stop. How dare the people in front stop? It's just that they all have injuries on their bodies, which inevitably hinders their movements. Unknowingly, they are getting closer and closer to each other.
Therefore, without thinking, Su Ziyi knew why this group of people came towards him.
Although he had no ill feelings toward ordinary people, he hated the feeling of being forced into them.
His eyelids drooped slightly, and a pressure immediately spread out around him with him as the center. This kind of pressure, which can already form a considerable sense of oppression for ordinary people, immediately caused the two groups of people moving in this direction to stagnate, with hesitant expressions on their faces, especially those behind them. Some of the people in the group even stopped and planned to retreat in fear.
The escape of the group in front also stopped. But the leading man then thought about it, running forward would mean death, and retreating would mean death, but dying in the hands of practitioners was better than dying in the hands of the animals behind. So he opened his dry lips and immediately urged the others: "Let's go, keep going." After saying that, he covered the wound and took the lead and rushed forward.
Su Ziyi's heart moved. He didn't expect that after he released the pressure, this group of people would still choose to come in this direction. He silently pondered in his heart, was it a last resort, or did he not have much respect for cultivators?
Before he could think of a reason, the group of people had already broken through the outermost bushes and faced him face to face.
Although they already knew that this campfire was a cultivator, these warriors never thought that this cultivator would be so young. Judging from his aura, he was far more powerful than some cultivators of the same age they had followed before. Much stronger. Unconsciousness suddenly rose in their hearts, and they broke into cold sweat. All eyes were focused on the leading man.
The man's throat was dry, and he was so frightened that he immediately released his hand covering the wound, bent down and saluted Su Ziyi: "I'm sorry to disturb you, sir..." "Get out." Before he could finish
, Su Ziyi uttered a single word coldly and looked at the other person without any emotion.
The other party stiffened. After he straightened up and met Su Ziyi's gaze, the fear in his eyes froze. His hands seemed to have nowhere to put them. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He moved his lips and prepared to accuse. But Su Ziyi didn't like this. Seeing that the people behind him were afraid that he would not continue to move forward, he felt a little happier and repeated his previous words again: "Get out." This time, this group of people
finally After moving, they glanced at Su Ziyi secretly with disbelief in their eyes, and then stumbled away in another direction under the pull of others. Although the people chasing behind couldn't see clearly, just by hearing the voices and looking at the shadows of the other party's heads, they knew that the group of people in front were not punished by the practitioners, but were using this to escape from them, and they immediately felt anxious. He got up, felt fierce in his heart, and immediately chased after him.
At this time, Su Ziyi's face really turned dark.
He really couldn't understand why he always encountered this kind of thing. Although he was a little impatient, he was not a murderous person, so when the following group of people also appeared in front of him, he made no other move except the cold knives in his eyes. This group of people had obviously dealt with the cultivators. They bowed and begged for forgiveness as soon as they came up, and explained in a few words the origins and purpose of their group.
"Sorry to bother you, sir." This group of people wore algae-green robes with yellow piping, and had a saber at their waists. They were all strong and strong, with clear eyes. They looked completely different from ordinary warriors: "We are The yamen of Qixia Town Government are extremely sorry for disturbing you because they were chasing the gangsters just now." When he heard what he said, Su Ziyi thought in his mind, people from the government
? Gangster? Did something happen in Qixia Town?
Although he was thinking about the problem in his mind, he never thought of stopping him to ask clearly. After all, the other party was from the government, and the government was something he couldn't afford to offend now. So I just raised my hand to indicate that they could leave.
When the government officials saw Su Ziyi's gesture, they immediately felt relieved. They saluted Su Ziyi again, and then hurriedly chased the thugs in the direction where they fled. Although some time was wasted just now, the other party was injured and would definitely not be able to escape their pursuit. Thinking of this, their pace accelerated by three points.
Su Ziyi watched the group of people disappear into the shadows of the woods. After a while, even the light of the torches was no longer visible. He closed his eyes again and prepared to continue practicing. At the same time, he thought this was interesting. The gangsters were all seriously injured, but they looked decent. There was not much blood on the weapons in their hands. It was impossible to tell that they had done anything crazy. thing, so the title of gangster is really interesting.
Early the next morning, Su Ziyi set off again.
With the sun as a guide, Su Ziyi quickly found the direction this time. It took him half a morning to finally find the luggage he had hidden before. He immediately took out a set of clothes that Bian Qing had prepared for him from the bamboo basket, then changed out of the pile of tattered fabrics on his body, and walked towards the outermost layer carrying his things refreshed. .
He just kept an eye on it as he walked.
He pulled out all the spiritual herbs he encountered along the way, stuffed the more precious ones into his storage bag, and put the common ones in the bamboo basket behind his back. He even shot a second-level monster and carried it in his hand. on the outer layer, pretending to be returning home with a full load, and then walked towards the outermost layer.
The further you go, the more people there are.
And the more people I met, the more obvious something was wrong.
In the past, there were quite a lot of warriors who entered the Fallen Immortal Forest for hunting. Although he had encountered quite a few along the way, overall they were much less than before. Moreover, these people were all in a state of confusion, with worries on their faces. They wanted to say something to their friends around them, but after their lips moved for a long time, they were too afraid to say anything. A melancholy atmosphere surrounded these warriors. .
Su Ziyi quickly discovered this abnormality.
He thought of the two groups he met last night, and he couldn't help but wonder, what happened in Qixia Town during his trip to the Meteor Fairy Forest? What if something happened... When he thought of this, his mind tightened, and he immediately became worried about Bian Qing and Su Yulang at home.
