Chapter 161 Snake Eyes, Iron Cannons

The biggest difficulty in dealing with ghost enemies is their erratic movements.

Lu Xiao had just waved the sword to clear his way, and the seven-faced warrior had disappeared from his sight. At the same time, Lu Xiao noticed the violent sense of threat coming from behind.

Instinctively shrank to the left to avoid it, a torrent of purple light suddenly whizzed past where he was standing.

The attack that resembles a beam cannon actually has no physical damage ability. After being dodged by Lu Xiao, the beam directly penetrated the rock wall of the cave and shot into the distance.

The killer move was avoided, and the seven-faced warrior also exposed his new position.

In order not to let this guy flee again, Lu Xiao rushed straight to the place where the seven-sided warrior was located with a shrunk point.

"boom!"

Another beam of light rushed towards Lu Xiao in front of him. This time, Lu Xiao did not dodge any action and retracted the Immortal Slash back into the scabbard in advance.

Before the last moment when the beam came, the immortal slash, which began to emit purple light from the scabbard, suddenly unsheathed.

"Secret Legend: Dragon Flash!"

Learned from Yixin Ashina's secret technique, he sprayed out sharp sword energy, and used the sword energy of the special ability of Immortal Slash to split the beam of light emitted by the seven-sided warrior from the middle, and continued to sweep towards the seven-sided warrior without diminishing momentum.

After Lu Xiao learned the secret skills of Long Shan and Yi Xin through Yi Xin's secrets, Lu Xiao, through Yi Xin's secrets, both of which were classified into Ashi Mingli and received the C-level Ashi Mingli skill bonus.

The surging sword energy hit the seven-faced warrior who could not dodge head-on. The undead slashing power attached to the sword energy made the seven-faced warrior scream strange and shrill.

"Yeah!"

When the seven-faced warrior was hit by the sword energy and fell into a staggering state, Lu Xiao finally moved to the seven-faced warrior.

The Rune of Lun that was temporarily imprinted on the Immortal Sword dissipated very quickly, and the purple light on the blade had begun to become dim. Obviously, the dragon flashes before consumed a lot of magic power that Lu Xiao had preserved in the Rune of Lun.

"Ashina Cross Kill!"

Two purple sword lights overlapping across the dark cave, and the noises made by the seven-faced warriors and the wronged souls finally stopped.

The seven-faced warrior whose spirit was cut quickly faded in the air and could no longer condense the entity. The wronged souls gathered by the seven-faced warriors also disappeared one by one with relief on their faces.

"Huh~"

With the knife removed and the sheath was used up, the magic of the Rune Lun was used up at this moment.

The originally heavy and turbid air in the cave was clear, and the threat from the seven-faced warriors to the dungeon was lifted.

...

When Lu Xiao reached the giant pit that the wolf said, an old woman with her hands folded and praying posture was kneeling in front of the giant pit and murmured to herself.

"The bottom of Ashiname...The bottom of Ashiname..."

Lu Xiao tried to go up and talk to the old woman, but the old lady with very cloudy eyes tossed and turned around for a few words, just like a robot that could only answer automatically.

Looking down from the edge of the huge pit, nothing could be seen below the dark hole, and Lu Xiao's night vision ability could not penetrate the thick darkness below.

‘Well… Just in case, make some preparations.’

After pointing Ai Mingliu to level C, Lu Xiao has 5 points left in his free skill point. Considering the life safety issues that may arise after a mistake, Lu Xiao spent 4 skill points to add the leap of faith to level B.

"Leap of B-level faith: Completely immune to the damage of falling into straw and water when falling from high altitude, greatly reducing the damage of falling into the ground from high altitude, and can retain the host's 'one-blood immortal' under extreme conditions."

If possible, Lu Xiao does not want to trigger the so-called "one-blood immortality". The B-level faith leap can only ensure that Lu Xiao will not fall to death, and it cannot guarantee that he will not fall to his body due to the fall. That should be an effect that can only be achieved by a higher level A.

From level B skill points to level A, you need to consume 5 free skill points. Lu Xiao doesn’t have that many spare points now.

The immortality of the first blood at least ensures the safety of Lu Xiao's life. If he is so unlucky that he triggers this effect, Lu Xiao can only start the time gem without regard to the consequences and reverse his time, but this will inevitably affect his next plan.

He opened his arms and jumped high from the edge of the huge pit. Lu Xiao fell into the deep pit in front of him as the mysterious old woman looked at her meaningfully.

“Hu~Hu~”

The howling cold wind blew past Lu Xiao's face. Lu Xiao, who had all his strength to open the eagle's eyes, ignored the interference of the cold wind and focused on finding possible ground platforms and fulcrum below.

"See it!"

Lu Xiao, who was falling rapidly, threw out the hook lock in his arm armor. With the crisp sound of metal chain stretching, his sharp hook claws grabbed into a protruding big stone.

Lu Xiao used the recoil force from the hook claw to fix it, so he swung his body and changed the direction of the fall. While shaking his arm to retract the hook claw, he fell lightly on a dark and dull huge rock platform.

"boom!"

Even with the hook lock helping to reduce the falling force, Lu Xiao still caused a huge impact when he landed.

The leap of faith that has reached level B greatly reduced Lu Xiao's damage when landing. Lu Xiao, whose legs were numb, stood there and then slowed down for a few seconds and then resumed his normal movement ability.

There is a cave entrance emitting a glimmer at the far end of the huge rock platform. Lu Xiao walked along the cave and entered a wide underground cave with the help of the faint illumination of luminous moss.

At the bottom of this cave is a fishy and unpleasant swamp, with obvious traces of artificial axes nearby.

Several huge Buddha statues are located around the swamp, and more than a dozen weird people wrapped in white cloth live around the poisonous swamp and Buddha statues.

Lu Xiao temporarily filtered the stench of the swamp, squatted on the platform and looked at the distribution of people below with the eagle's eyes.

Most of these weird people with white cloth wrapped in their heads hold meshes, and some even carry miniature cannons in their hands. You can tell at a glance that they are individuals who specialize in long-range areas.

If Lu Xiao remembers correctly, these weirdos should be Ashina folk armed groups called Iron Cannons. Their leader is a woman named Snake Eye, who is said to have part of the bloodline of the Yukamei clan.

Although most of the faces of Snake Eyes were wrapped in Brie, her eyesight was actually quite amazing. Lu Xiao saw with her own eyes that she accurately hit an unknown little flying insect flying above the swamp with a special musket in her hand.

This little flying insect was at least hundreds of meters away from the snake's eyes, and I don't know how she did it with a badly accurate and inferior contraption gun.

Considering that he might pass by this passage many times when he got the Stone of the Shrine to the Source Palace, Lu Xiao planned to deal with this group of iron cannons once and for all.

It would be better if they could persuade them in a peaceful way. But before coming, Lu Xiao heard from Xianyiro that the Iron Cannon crowd had no favoritism towards Ashina officials, and anyone who broke into their stronghold would be attacked without discrimination.

Simply put, the Iron Cannon is a wild monster-type organization living alone in the wild. It has no stance and tendency, so it is impossible to convince them to give way.

Lu Xiao stood at the height of the cliff and observed the distribution of the iron cannon crowds, touching his chin hesitantly.

‘Do you solve the snake's eyes first or clean up the miscellaneous soldiers first?’
