The golden ring of fire exploded, and the transparent talisman sword exploded with great force. It was like a wall of fire, hitting the woman in red.
A layer of red light first appeared on the surface of her body, which was extremely dim. When the red light met the golden flame, it instantly collapsed, and both were annihilated at the same time.
The golden flame had a little remaining power and hit the woman hard.
puff!
The woman in red vomited a mouthful of blood, and her sharp five-finger claws also grabbed Lin Xin's chest and inserted a small section into it.
hiss!
The two men were separated by the flame explosion. Lin Xin fell to the ground and rolled on the ground to avoid it. A large piece of flesh and blood on his chest was torn off.
The woman also backed up a few meters before stopping, her claws covered in blood.
"Damn it!!" The woman in red didn't expect that a random disciple who was caught sucking the essence would encounter such weird resistance tactics.
The sword actually explodes!?
"Damn you little bastard! I'll eat you alive!!" She was injured more and more, and she was even more angry. She had just grabbed a few Qi Practitioner disciples to replenish her body, but now she began to feel a dull pain in her chest again. Suddenly her heart felt.
The hatred was overwhelming, and the red mouth quickly split open, lengthened and swelled, deforming and expanding to the size of a bucket.
Phew...the big black mouth bit down on Lin Xin.
There was a loud bang, and another red flame swept over her. She suddenly saw another long sword in the kid's hand. She was suddenly frightened and dodged to the right.
If she had used this trick in normal times, even if she stood there and let it explode, she wouldn't be injured even half a hair, but it was different now. Being chased by the previous spirit-gathering body, she was almost severely injured, and her life was exhausted.
Avoiding the flames, she suddenly realized that this time the flames were not as threatening as before.
"Dare you fool me!!"
She was furious. When did she fall to the point where an ordinary genius could tease her?
"How dare you harm people!!" At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from deep in the passage.
"He Tianhe!!" The woman in red gnashed her teeth in hatred, but she couldn't hit him head-on, so she had to turn around and run away.
As soon as the woman in red left, a white shadow floated across the passage. It was a stern young man with only one eyebrow. It was He Tianhe who had been chasing him all the way.
He glanced coldly at Lin Xin, who was tired on the ground.
"Try to hide as carefully as possible. This witch was seriously injured by me and is trying her best to suck the essence of living people everywhere." He dropped a word and continued to catch up quickly, disappearing in the passage in a few moments.
Xiao Lingling heard the noise and rushed out at this time. When she saw Lin Xin lying on the ground, her entire upper body was covered in blood. She also saw the two people leaving far away in the passage.
"Brother Lin!!" She exclaimed.
"Don't stay here for a long time! Leave quickly!" Lin Xin reluctantly took out the Rain Talisman, and luckily contracted the muscles and blood vessels to stop the bleeding. But his face was already as golden as paper. Looking at the wound, the flesh and blood were faintly black, and the red witch's sharp claws
It’s actually poisonous!
Xiao Lingling quickly helped him up, and the two of them staggered towards the exit of the passage.
***************
Lin Xin was groggy and was supported by Xiao Lingling, stumbling and stopping all the way, rushing for several days.
He had a total of 200 rain talismans and more than 200 poison-avoiding talismans on him, all of which were used up in the past few days, but he could only barely suppress the witch's poison.
In the middle of the process, Lin Xin vomited two mouthfuls of black blood.
He watched helplessly as his attribute state dropped to an extremely weak level. Fortunately, his defense worked. His own body's defense blocked the witch at the critical moment, causing her to miscalculate and she should have dug out his heart.
The scratch turned into just a small penetration, only a piece of flesh and blood was injured.
The only trouble is the poison.
Lin Xin used up all his own poison-avoiding charms, and even Xiao Lingling's, to barely suppress the poison from spreading and worsening.
But his body was already extremely weak. The energy in his body was constantly resisting the erosion of toxins.
After traveling for several days, we are almost back to the underground river cave.
The two of them stood at the entrance of the large cave. They could faintly hear the rushing sound of the underground river outside. The cool breeze blew in from the entrance of the cave, which was very refreshing.
Someone's voice could be faintly heard amidst the noise of the wind.
Xiao Lingling was immediately overjoyed. She was already exhausted, so she supported Lin Xin and rushed out to seek help.
"etc!"
Lin Xin suddenly grabbed her.
"What's wrong? Brother Lin?" Xiao Lingling turned around and was confused, but when she saw Lin Xin shaking his head at her, she suddenly understood.
"I'm confused. If you go out in this state, if someone is greedy for money..."
She bit her lip and helped Lin Xin lean against the stone wall.
Lin Xin reluctantly sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. In order to resist the erosion of toxins, he could barely maintain his internal energy at only one-fifth of his capacity.
He took out the last Qi Transformation Pill he got from Song Jing and stuffed it into his mouth.
He closed his eyes and continued to adjust his breath. After a while, Lin Xin's face turned slightly red. He suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.
"Brother Lin..." Xiao Lingling quickly went to help him.
"No need." Lin Xin raised his hand to signal, "Let's go up first. I am now using the Qi Transformation Pill to replenish my internal energy, and my internal strength has temporarily returned to about one-third. I will have no problem walking freely for the time being."
"I understand." Xiao Lingling nodded, her face becoming a little nervous. "People's hearts are sinister, Brother Lin, don't worry, I won't reveal any flaws."
Lin Xin nodded. "Let's go." Carrying the last sword on his back, the Yanyang Talisman Sword, he strode out of the passage.
The underground river cave was in a mess, with debris and bloodstains left from the fight everywhere. Black and red bloodstains were dotted one after another, almost dyeing the entire cave floor another color.
Several disciples of the Yellow Sword Sect were carefully checking the ground, seemingly looking for something.
Lin Xin's sharp eyes saw these people from time to time quietly picking up bone fragments from hidden places on the ground and secretly pocketing them.
"These are probably guys who don't have the guts to hunt centaurs and can only pick up broken bones here." Xiao Lingling whispered in his ear.
She was so close, her bulging chest pressed against Lin Xin's arm, but she didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, her cheeks turned red and she moved closer.
Lin Xin was deeply poisoned, and he could barely stand firm by relying on the large amount of internal energy he had recovered in a short period of time. He was unable to push her away. He could only let her lean on him, and he could also use her strength to stand firm in disguise.
The movement of the two people walking out immediately attracted the attention of several people who had picked up the leak.
Lin Xin glanced at him with a cold expression and walked directly towards the passage back.
Several people saw that his clothes were ragged and stained with blood everywhere, but his body was straight and he was still strong when walking. It was obvious that he was probably a master who walked out of the depths of the cave alive after a fierce battle. Then looking at his cold and disdainful expression, they suddenly felt
They all withdrew their gaze, not daring to look any further.
"Tsk tsk...it's really miserable...the trial is so miserable." Two disciples from the same group muttered in a low voice. "No wonder many places in the outer world call our four sects evil sects. Now it seems that it is not unreasonable.
..”
"What evil sect? Doesn't our Songlin Sword Sect claim to be a famous and upright sect?" another person retorted.
"You also said that you are claiming to be...not practicing Qi. The sect doesn't treat us as human beings at all..."
The voices of the two of them became quieter and could no longer be heard.
Lin Xin and Xiao Lingling finally reached the upward passage, and when they saw no one in front or behind them, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"You can let go of me now..." Lin Xin whispered.
Xiao Lingling's chest pressed tightly against his arm, but she was a little reluctant to let go.
"It doesn't matter. Brother Lin, you are injured now. I can hold you more stable."
While the two were talking, footsteps suddenly came from ahead.
A group of well-dressed disciples in black walked down from the top of the passage, almost everyone was injured.
The leader was clearly the third-level disciple from the Poison Gang.
They were also the group of people who entered the cave together with Lin Xin and others. When they saw Lin Xin and Xiao Lingling, their eyes turned red.
"It's you!! You devil!"
Not only him, but all the people in the poisonous gang behind him had red eyes, and they all drew their swords.
"Kill him!! This person is the devil!!"
"He was the one who killed my brother! Kill!!"
A group of more than ten people all rushed towards the two of them as if they had seen the enemy who killed their father.
"Let's go!" Lin Xin was also confused, but there was no time to explain at this time. He pulled out the Yanyang Talisman Sword with his backhand and channeled his inner energy.
Fortunately, the Yanyang Talisman Sword did not require much internal energy to be activated. A red flame immediately spread from the blade and turned into three fireballs, roaring towards the disciples.
puff!
Lin Xinqiang channeled his internal energy, and his already weak body was suddenly injured again, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
He forced himself to hold on and shook his hands to play the last four transparent rune stones.
Bang bang bang!!
After several strong light explosions, all the disciples were injured one after another. Most of their eyes were temporarily blinded, and they were thrown up and hit against the stone wall.
"Go quickly!!"
Lin Xin staggered and shouted, feeling increasingly dizzy.
Xiao Lingling quickly supported him and walked through a road blasted out of the middle of the passage.
"Whether you believe it or not, we have no idea what you are talking about?" She said a few words, helped Lin Xin and left quickly.
Lin Xin used his inner energy, which caused the toxins in his body to move slightly. He already felt that his vision was constantly shaking, and his vision gradually became blurred.
After driving forward for several kilometers, he couldn't bear it anymore. His face became paler, his body went limp, and he leaned directly against the stone wall.
"Brother Lin...Brother Lin...how are you?" Xiao Lingling's voice came intermittently, as if coming from a very far away place.
Lin Xin tried his best to open his eyes, but he could only vaguely see a dirty face blurring in front of his eyes. He felt that his body was light and his whole skin seemed to be numb, as if he had been given anesthesia.
He wanted to raise his hand, but with all his strength, he could only barely lift it halfway...
"The toxin... is too powerful... the rash movement of the internal energy affects the stability of the toxin... This is troublesome..." He smiled bitterly in his heart.
Although he has been trying to be cautious, growing continuously, and trying to avoid this extremely weak state in this world, no matter what, no matter how powerful a master is, he will always encounter a moment of weakness.
Of course he is no exception...
"Brother Lin...don't worry...find the elixir...and cure it..." Xiao Lingling's voice sounded intermittently in her ears.
Lin Xin could no longer bear it, and waves of heavy fatigue came over him like a tide, completely submerging him. He finally fell into darkness.
He was so groggy that he didn't know how long he had slept. When Lin Xin woke up again, he didn't know how much time had passed.
He felt as if he was being carried on someone's back and moving forward at a very slow speed. After resting for a while, his consciousness seemed to be much clearer. His physical sensations had also recovered.
"Brother Lin...Brother Lin, are you awake?"
Upon noticing that he was awake, Xiao Lingling's voice suddenly rang out.
Only then did Lin Xin see that it was Xiao Lingling who was walking forward step by step with him on her back. The two of them were close to each other. He could feel that Xiao Lingling's body was full of sweat, which was caused by the dry sweat.
The smell of sweat is formed by the repeated accumulation of wetness.
"Put me down..." Lin Xin opened his mouth, and the sound he made was so weak that even he was a little surprised. He obviously used a lot of effort, but he could only make a little sound, and his throat was swollen.
, as if something is blocking the throat.
"No...Brother Lin, you are still very weak now. You'd better talk less...just listen to me." Xiao Lingling turned her face away, with a sweet smile on her sweat-stained face.
"Those people from the drug gang seemed to have misunderstood us, saying that we had killed their people and wanted to take revenge on us. Later, I found a place to hide in the square and used many stones and other things to hide them.
The two of us buried it and pretended to be corpses.
They didn't dare to waste too much time here, so after searching for a while, they went down to look for bone fragments."
She said it very easily, but Lin Xin could hear the danger in it. What happened during the time when she was unconscious, and the suffering she encountered, may have been something Xiao Lingling had never encountered before.
"Have we arrived at the big square?" His vision was still blurry and he couldn't see clearly what was farther around him.
"Yeah...it's the square where the disguised person appeared..." Xiao Lingling quickly replied. "Brother Lin, it's been three days since you were last unconscious..."
