Chapter 190: Heavenly Centipede Blocks the Road (Part 1)
"The damn place."
Xia Jie stepped on the sand, and the soft sand was like a sucking baby's mouth, immediately swallowing up his body from the waist down. He cursed a few times angrily, and with the help of his witchcraft, the quicksand turned into
Xia Jie grabbed the hard rocks, twisted his body a few times, shattered the surrounding rocks, and climbed up slowly. Just as the strong wind blew up a few hollow stones, they hit him
A large amount of sparks burst out from his head, and the rocks were ejected far away.
Xingtian Dafeng, who was riding on Yu, hummed listlessly: "Xia Jie, you should also go on Xuanwu's back. This road is too difficult to walk."
Road, is there a road here? Xia Jie looked around blankly at this damn place.
There is black sand everywhere, and rocks of different sizes and weird shapes are piled randomly on the ground. There is not a blade of grass, not a tree, and naturally there is no trace of water. Occasionally, there are some mottled stone pillars.
Protruding from the ground, these stone pillars, which are almost a thousand feet tall, stretch randomly into the sky. Against the dark earth and dark sky, they look like the arms of a dead body stretching towards the sky. No matter how you look at it, you feel uncomfortable. The sand and rocks rolled up by the strong wind are fierce.
Hitting these stone pillars hard, large swaths of sparks sputtered out in the air, making a loud 'pop' sound.
Shaking his head and waving his hand to break a few stones that were coming towards him, Xia Jie jumped on Xuanwu's back, followed the guide in front, and continued to move towards the north.
Ten days ago, because of Chi Ming's incident, Xia Jie found Xing Tiane and wanted to use the power of the Xingtian family to teach Bai Zhi and the people who gradually gathered around Bai Zhi a lesson behind his back. However, Xing Tiane stopped him with a clear attitude.
In order to appease Xia Jie, he revealed more things to Xia Jie, which were more detailed than what Xing Tianshisan told Xia Jie. Finally, in order to prevent Xia Jie from staying in Anyi City and causing trouble,
When things happened, Xing Tiane sent him, Xing Tian Dafeng and others to this small team with a special mission.
It is composed of the elite disciples of the four major witch families, together with some of their family's friends and powerful subordinates, forming a small team of more than 300 people.
Xiang Liurou, Xiang Liuxuan, Xiang Liuxun, whom Xia Jie is familiar with, as well as Shen Gongpeng of the Shen Gong family, Fang Fengye of the Fangfeng family, and others who are not familiar with him, are all in the team. Once this mission is successful, he will establish a
It is a great credit that the heads of the four major witch families are also deliberately cultivating their future heirs.
Of course, since heirs like Xing Tian Dafeng and others are in the team, those accompanying them are naturally the real elites. A small team of elite wizards from the palace secret department, as well as close subordinates sent by each family, make this team's combat effectiveness
It is extremely powerful, and the composition of its personnel is also extremely complicated. For example, Xia Jie brought Shui Yuanzi, and several others also brought some beings with unique skills that did not belong to the human category - the leader of the Xiangliu family was not
Xiang Liurou is a spirit who is said to have been transformed into a human body by a giant python.
He grabbed Bai from his shoulder, caught fleas on him for a while, and fed him two pieces of dried meat. Xia Jie stood up and looked towards the north. At a glance, he saw endless sand and rocks, and darkness in the distance.
The sky is connected with the earth, dark and deep, like the gate of hell.
The guide was Shu who was captured alive at Yi Hao's house. The antidote was obtained in time, and Shu's vitality was extremely strong. He recovered within two days. Xia Jie took a cart full of money and stuff and threw it in front of Shu's face.
, immediately asked Shu to change his family and become Xia Jie's subordinate. When the team went to the north, they needed someone who was very familiar with Hu Jie's Northern Desert, and Shu came in handy. He volunteered to lead the way, and came from Wang Ting's secret
The few wizards in the department just saved the trouble and sat comfortably on the floating cart to recuperate, not bothering to go to the front of the team to swallow sand.
Seeing Xia Jie keep getting up and looking to the north, Shu'gaga burst out laughing: "Boss, don't worry, the road here is flat and there is no risk. Thousands of miles further ahead, you will reach the Yinfeng Gorge.
After that, you will reach the northern snowfield. Well, where you want to go, you only need to walk a hundred thousand miles in the snowfield to get there."
As soon as he finished speaking, a blue-black boulder the size of a tabletop roared down from the top of a tall stone pillar on the side, grazing Shu's body and hitting the ground.
This boulder was so dense that it fell from a height of several hundred feet, and the impact actually created a hole dozens of feet deep on the ground. Xia Jie wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "This is
Is there no risk?" Well, maybe, there is no risk for the great witches, but for ordinary people...
Shu patted his belly nonchalantly and said with a smile: "We Hu Jie people grew up in a place like this. Hey, it's nothing surprising. What kind of risk is this? Every spring and autumn, the strong winds in the northern snowfields blow.
The sky is full of rocks like this flying around and smashing, that's what it's worth seeing. Anyone who wasn't strong enough was smashed to death, and the only ones left behind are heroes like me!"
He flexed his arms hard, and the well-developed arm muscles squeezed together, making a "squeaking" sound. Xia Jie and Xing Tian Dafeng exchanged glances, and they were secretly happy. Shu, this powerful thug, came too cheaply.
Before leaving, I gave Shu a test. This guy was actually close to breaking through the limit of the Eight Cauldrons of the True Cauldron, and was about to reach the level of the real Jiuding Great Witch. Such a strong man only spent a cartload of money and goods to buy it.
, it’s really cheap.
Presumably, Bai Zhi is jumping up and down with anger now? But she worked hard to find it from the Hu Jie tribe and threw it to Yi Hao for use.
Shui Yuanzi, who had been sitting on Xuanwu's neck, grabbing the roasted beast's leg with his greasy hands and chewing it with joy, suddenly shouted: "Be careful, there is someone a hundred miles away on the right, murderous!"
The team suddenly stopped, and everyone took out their powerful magic weapons and prepared to fight. However, after a full cup of tea, there was no movement at all. Xiang Liurou couldn't help but sneer: "You don't know
What nonsense are you talking about, you ghost? There is someone a hundred miles away? We didn't find it, so how do you know?"
Shui Yuanzi didn't bother to look at Xiang Liu Rou. He ate the barbecue and said in a murmur: "Huh, there is water in this desert, there is water in the sky and the earth. As long as there is water, we can hide it."
But my consciousness...well, what are they doing?"
Just as the shocked expression appeared on Shui Yuanzi's face, dozens of extremely bright and long arrows were shot from the right. Xing Tian Gale fiercely waved a large black shield, and the black light emitted from the shield protected it.
He killed his brothers and shouted loudly: "Be careful! They are Dongyi people! Damn it!"
The arrow light quickly arrived in front of him. Most of the light emitted by the black shield in Xing Tian Dafeng's hand was blown away, and a trace of blood emerged from the corner of his mouth. The children of other families also used witchcraft to block the arrow light, but there were also some
He was knocked backwards for several miles by the impact of the arrow, which made him very embarrassed.
"Huh? Are these little bastards ready?" The exclamation came from afar, and then there was no sound.
Xingtian Dafeng held up his big shield, flew up in the air and shouted loudly: "Dongyi bastards, your new clan leader has submitted an envoy to pay tribute to us in Daxia. He just arrived in Anyi a few days ago. How dare you take action against us?"
?" The loud voice shattered the violent wind between heaven and earth, and the fragmented wind energy wrapped around his voice and spread hundreds of miles away.
"Hehehe, you mean the guy who is sitting on the throne and calls himself Hou Yi? We are not his people."
A cold voice shouted in a weird voice: "You little bastards, you don't stay in Anyi City honestly, but you want to come here to find death! Just wait and see, unless you are lucky enough to win every time
Be prepared in advance, otherwise, either you or me, someone will have to stay here."
Xia Jie suddenly shouted in a cold voice: "It's a man, tell me, how did you know we were here?"
Everyone in the team showed a hint of suspicion. It was extremely secret for their small team to leave Anyi City. Apart from Xia Jie, the only people who knew their destination were directly related to the great witches who led the team and Xingtian Dafeng.
Disciples. Even after they drove to the western territory of Daxia for several days, they turned around and headed north and rushed here. To say that someone could follow them in Daxia for several days without being discovered, it would be impossible
This doesn't make sense.
The weird voice came from afar: "Hee hee, do you think we are stupid? Just guess for yourselves! Yes, someone told us about you, but I won't tell you. Hee hee, haha
, Hahahaha!" The laughter of dozens of people came over at the same time, and the laughter continued to go away.
A great witch from the Wangting Ansi had already picked up an arrow used by these Dongyi people. When Xia Jie was talking to them, the great witch was constantly carving witchcraft spells on the arrow and reciting
Weird spell. When he heard that the Dongyi people were escaping, he immediately bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of black blood onto the arrow. With a crisp sound, the arrow shot out a thin green light and stretched straight to the right.
Fang. The great witch laughed ferociously, pulled out a bone knife made of human bones, and cut off the green thread with one strike.
A scream was heard in the distance, and a burst of blood exploded. Even Xia Jie and the others could clearly see it hundreds of miles away. Many people's exclamations came at the same time, and then dozens of extremely fast weapons were seen.
The light of the arrow quickly fled to the east. Dozens of great witches in Xia Jie's team simultaneously laughed triumphantly and congratulated the great witch who performed the witchcraft.
The great witch who cast the spell smiled proudly and said: "It seems that they are a group of Dongyi people. They don't even understand why arrows cannot fall in our hands. Is it possible that all the Dongyi people's old people are dead?"
"
After celebrating proudly, the team continued to move forward. But this time, everyone was on heightened alert. Xing Tian Dafeng and the others, who had brought out the family's treasure, walked on both sides of the team, ready to intercept them at any time.
The other party's attack. The great witches all know that Dongyi people's arrows, within a range of hundreds of miles, have more direct and more difficult to prevent lethality than witchcraft. In particular, their arrow skills can easily tear apart enemies.
They have much stronger sorcerer bodies. No one wants to suddenly have a long arrow on their neck.
With precautions against the unexpected Dongyi archers, three days later, Xia Jie and the others arrived at the 'Yinfeng Gorge', the passage from the Hujie Desert to the northern snowfield. This is also the most remote tunnel within tens of thousands of miles. Because it is far away from Hujie Desert,
The Jie people's settlement is too far away, because the wild beasts around here are too ferocious and powerful, and because the northern snowfield is really not a place to cultivate one's mind and live in peace and contentment, so there are no human traces here all year round, except for the occasional few Hu Jie people who leave the group to practice.
Only then will they leave their footprints here.
It was getting late, and once night came in the Hujie Desert, even great witches would encounter some strange risks. There were rumors that a great witch of high rank was devoured here, leaving no trace of his body. Therefore, for the sake of safety, Xia Jie chose a
They blocked the flat open space in front of the cliff and allowed everyone to set up camp.
Bai had sneaked away a long time ago and had eaten dried meat for several days. Bai had begun to hate the dry food without any taste of blood. He jumped like the wind and ran along the cliff towards the distance, trying to find
Several unlucky beasts were fighting for their teeth. Xingtian Dafeng's beast, which was still ferocious, followed Bai out happily. He was also greedy for fresh meat.
A large bonfire was lit, several clay urns were placed on the fire, and a lot of tea was sprinkled in. Shui Yuanzi moved the seals and played tricks in front of the clay urns for a while, and then he saw
Wisps of bright white air were poured into the urn. After a while, the urn was filled with clear and sweet water, and soon the aroma of the tea soup began to waft.
Xing Tian Aolong laughed softly on the side and muttered to his brothers in a low voice: "The helper Xia Jie found is good. In the future, when our army marches, we won't have to worry about water sources wherever we go."
The brothers of the Xingtian family smiled so hard that their teeth were exposed. Even if the great witch had the power to open up the world, it would not be easy to find a spring in a ghost place like the Hujie Desert. Even the great witch with water attributes could condense water vapor.
, but how can Shui Yuanzi be so relaxed and at ease? For the marching army, Shui Yuanzi is indeed a rare treasure.
Xia Jie wandered around the camp and arranged a small team of elite witch warriors in some hidden places. Xia Jie once again discovered a shortcoming of the great witches. Perhaps because their personal strength was too strong, their war techniques were extremely crude.
, even the sentries are carelessly placed in the most obvious places. Isn’t this a living target? In an army camp with hundreds of thousands or even millions, this is not a big disadvantage, but if it is replaced by such a small
In the team, this problem can be fatal.
According to the special training in his previous life, these Wuwu were assigned light and dark sentinel posts, and several small but practical alarm devices were made. Xia Jie was just about to go to the camp to take a sip of hot tea and eat some dry food when a white noise suddenly came from the distance.
And the low growl of the cow.
Xia Jie's eyes narrowed sharply. He and Bai had grown up together since childhood, and he was already familiar with the meanings of the various sounds Bai made. Now it was clear that Bai was facing a powerful enemy that was difficult to deal with, and he was facing a powerful enemy.
Xia Jie sounded an alarm. And it was definitely a beast, not a human being. If the enemy he encountered was a great witch, Bai's voice would be even sharper.
"We've come across something that hurts our hands, let me go take a look!" Xia Jie said hello to Xingtian Dafeng, pulled out his mace, and angrily ran in the direction of the sound.
Xingtian Dafeng jumped up and asked Xia Jie if he wanted to help. Xia Jie waved his hand, indicating that he could solve it by himself. It was just one or a few wild beasts. He didn't believe that any wild beast could survive being hit by the Extermination Seal. At the same time, he also
I was blaming Bai secretly. He just wanted to eat a few mouthfuls of fresh meat. Why would he provoke those powerful beasts? The ferocious beasts in Daxia have been almost eliminated by the great witches, and there are no powerful monsters. But here
It's the Hujie Desert. God knows how many ancient alien species remain. Those monsters are not easy to mess with.
Xingtian Dafeng saw Xia Jie's gesture of not needing help, but he hesitated for a moment, then called Xingtian Xuanzhi, took Shu and followed him. At the same time, he also asked Xingtianpan and others to be more alert. He
The posture of being as if facing a formidable enemy immediately alerted Xiang Liurou and the others, and they all deployed their powerful witchcraft weapons. The person following Xiang Liurou was rumored to be a friend of a giant python from ancient times who had transformed into a spirit.
, and followed Xingtian Dafeng and others silently.
Xia Jie ran for more than ten miles. On a rocky hill in front of him, Bai and Jian were jumping up and down, fighting with four centipede-like monsters.
The four monsters are all red, and their shapes are exactly the same as centipedes. However, they are nearly a hundred feet long, with thousands of joints on their bodies. Their thousands of sharp claws are covered with a light glazed golden flame, and their bodies are covered with a thick layer of sticky
Something like magma. When these centipedes spit out their big mouths, thin transparent flames spurt out. When the surrounding stone pillars and rocks touch these flames, they immediately turn into blue smoke and evaporate, which shows how vicious it is.
.
"Holy shit!"
When Xia Jie saw the four centipedes, he was immediately dumbfounded. The memory inherited from the Tian Wu had records about this kind of monster - the Golden Yang Tian Centipede, which was born from the sun like the three-legged Golden Crow.
The magma-like substance covering the bodies of the ancient strange beasts is a nearly solidified flame compressed from the ancient poisonous flames extracted from the center of the earth. The flames on their claws are a ray of golden sun produced in the core of the sun.
Flame. What they spurt out from their mouths is the real fire of the sun that can melt almost everything in the world.
This kind of monster is only one foot long when it is born, with only a hundred joints in its body. Every forty-nine years, after experiencing a catastrophe of thunder and fire, their bodies will gain an extra joint. When their bodies have a thousand joints, they will have one more joint.
After enduring the last severe catastrophe, you can transform into the Golden Yang True Dragon and fly away through the sky.
Looking at the Tao Xing climate of these four centipedes, I am afraid that they have reached the threshold of dragon transformation, when the fire poison in the body is the most intense. Especially their carapace has been tempered by hundreds of times of thunder and fire, and is extremely strong. Compared with Xuanwu
Its back armor is only half as weak, making it an extremely difficult monster to deal with.
