"What on earth is in this secret passage? It's so disgusting."
"I also saw a black shadow just now, but I didn't see clearly what the black shadow was."
Jiang Nan raised his head and frowned slightly.
Use your excellent night vision to search for potential dangers in the dark.
"I always feel that this secret passage is not peaceful."
Danying finally peeled off the last bit of mucus from her clothes, followed Jiang Nan's gaze, and said with some worry.
"Run!"
Just when Danying hadn't seen any dangerous monsters, Jiang Nan suddenly shouted, grabbed Danying's wrist, dragged her and rushed in the direction she came from.
"Ah~"
Danying, who had not yet reacted, suddenly changed her face and screamed in surprise.
After regaining consciousness, he ran after Jiang Nan and asked with lingering fear: "Jiang Nan, what did you see?"
"It's a scorpion, and there's more than one."
Jiang Nan stood on a relatively safe stone step and said nervously as if facing a formidable enemy.
It's not that Jiang Nan is afraid of these scorpions, but if he wants to take away the magic spell without the high priest noticing, he can't have a big fight in the secret passage!
"Scorpion?"
Danying frowned slightly and looked nervously in the direction Jiang Nan pointed, but she saw nothing.
However, at this time, in Jiang Nan's eyes, the front, back and top of their heads were covered with scorpions.
Scorpions are huge, each one is larger than a normal adult.
Their eyes glowed with a faint black-red light, their tails sprayed black-purple demonic energy, and their mouths contained disgusting yellow-green mucus.
Wherever the scorpion's black and purple demonic energy passed, it was scorched black.
The heads hanging on the wall seemed to have been instantly roasted into black coals.
Jiang Nan frowned, looking serious.
"Danying, please be careful and use the protective spell." Jiang Nan said with a very serious expression.
"It's just a scorpion, there's no need to be so careful, right?"
Danying said somewhat nonchalantly.
Danying has seen Scorpion in the Demon Clan before.
Although scorpions are poisonous, they are only about the size of a palm, so dealing with them is like crushing an ant to death, with no effort at all.
Why do you need to use a protective spell?
Dan Ying thought Jiang Nan was too worried, so she comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I've seen scorpions before, they're not that scary."
Jiang Nan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Danying.
She is still too simple.
This place is no longer the original Xiaoyao Palace.
"These are not ordinary scorpions. They have been in the secret passage for too long and have absorbed part of the magic power of the curse. They are extremely powerful." Jiang Nan explained patiently.
"Um."
Although Danying nodded on the surface, she still thought Jiangnan was making a fuss out of a molehill.
Hiss!
At this moment, a demon scorpion fell from the sky and rushed towards Danying with its bloody mouth open.
"careful."
Jiang Nan pulled Danying behind him, immediately formed seals with his hands, and used a protective spell to resist the scorpion's fatal blow.
At this time, Danying also saw clearly what Scorpion looked like, and her expression suddenly changed.
"Jiangnan, this scorpion is too, too..."
Danying was stunned by the scorpion in front of her.
Before she could finish her stammering words, she realized that they were already surrounded by such huge scorpions.
"Quickly, use the protective spell." Jiang Nan looked back at Danying and urged again eagerly.
"good."
Danying didn't care much at this time, she formed seals with her hands, and a lavender spiritual power instantly surrounded herself.
Bang bang bang!
Just as the protective spell surrounded Danying, a scorpion attacked. It used the sickle-like hook on its tail to attack Danying's protective spell crazily.
"It's so dangerous. If it's a step later, I'm afraid I'll end up here."
Danying breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said with lingering fear.
"This Scorpion is harder to deal with than we thought." Jiang Nan said with a worried look.
"Then what should we do next? The curse is right in front of us, do we have to go back?"
Danying said with some reluctance.
"The protective spell can only last for one stick of incense. If we can repel the scorpion within one stick of incense without disturbing everyone in Xiaoyao Palace, it is possible to continue moving forward, otherwise we will just have to
I can go back."
Jiang Nan shrugged helplessly and said.
After all, it is safer to take a long-term approach than to alert the enemy immediately.
"Jiangnan, you and I will advance and retreat together!"
The corners of Danying's mouth raised slightly, with a determined look on her face, and she said confidently.
"Okay, now that we've reached this point, let's work hard to get there!"
After Jiang Nan and Dan Ying looked at each other, a piece of spiritual power that glowed white like a swimming dragon flew out of their hands.
That spiritual power is particularly dazzling.
Danying was not to be outdone, and a lightsaber glowing with lavender light flew out of her hand.
"rush!"
Following Jiang Nan's order, the dragons and lightsabers in their hands burst out with frightening energy, slashing hard at the scorpion that was rushing towards them.
How many bangs!
Youlong whipped the backs of several scorpions in front of Jiangnan, and the lightsaber stabbed the scorpions' abdomens mercilessly.
"No! They actually developed armor!"
Jiang Nan and Dan Ying looked at the unharmed Scorpion in front of them and almost exclaimed at the same time, their expressions changed drastically.
The two of them originally thought that the Scorpion would be split in two or directly pierced, losing its fighting power, but the expected scene did not appear.
"What's going on?" Danying looked at Jiangnan and said, "Hurry up and use the soul-suppressing sword to call him out."
The soul-suppressing sword can kill monsters.
Jiang Nan said: "It's not the time to use the Soul Suppressing Sword yet. The Soul Suppressing Sword is too excited about the demons. If it appears at this time, it will definitely kill everyone, and it will definitely attract the attention of those in Xiaoyao Palace.
"
Danying nodded.
So that’s it.
No wonder Jiang Nan didn't use the Soul Suppressing Sword.
The Scorpion in front of him seemed to be very annoyed by Jiang Nan and Dan Ying's attacks.
They swung the sharp hooks on their tails more vigorously, and launched an even more aggressive attack on Jiangnan and Danying's protective spells.
Jiangnan and Danying couldn't show off their skills because they didn't want to alarm the people in Xiaoyao Palace. These scorpions thought they were easy to bully and forced them back continuously.
"Danying, this is not the way to go. We must find the Scorpion's weakness as soon as possible."
Jiang Nan said with a slight frown while resisting the Scorpion's attack.
"The Scorpion has armor on its abdomen and back. I think its weak point must be at its head or tail!"
Danying thought quickly while retreating to resist the demon scorpion.
"You're right, I'll attack the head of the scorpion and you attack the tail. This time you must find the scorpion's weakness." Jiang Nan nodded and said.
