Chapter 42: The Transformation from Hunter to Prey
Duan Zhirou and Tang Lei did not delay or delay. They protected the injured Duan Rui and rushed out of the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Princess Yunshang held her sword horizontally in front of her, her eyes and consciousness locked on the Wind Shadow Beast that was flying towards this side again.
At this moment, no one is protecting Xing Nan.
He felt that he should stay and help Princess Yun Shang. The Wind Shadow Beast in the middle third level was actually not afraid of Princess Yun Shang. At this time, the Wind Shadow Beast had reached the late third level and its strength had greatly improved. Princess Yun Shang and
It is very dangerous to fight alone.
The Wind Shadow Beast was extremely fast. When it was moving, Xing Nan could only see a blurry shadow of the beast.
Although Princess Yunshang is much higher than Xing Nan, her sword light always falls behind the Wind Shadow Beast.
Seeing the Wind Shadow Beast moving rapidly around Princess Yun Shang, Princess Yun Shang could not do anything to the Wind Shadow Beast even though she had a sharp long sword in her hand. Xing Nan gritted his teeth and walked up to Princess Yun Shang in one stride.
"Why don't you leave yet?" Princess Yunshang asked eagerly.
"Let me help you." Xing Nan replied calmly.
"Come on, it has reached the late third level. I can only cope with it for a while, and I can't distract you from taking care of you." Princess Yunshang urged.
"Just concentrate on attacking, I can take care of myself." Xing Nan said confidently.
The Wind Shadow Beast pounced again, and Princess Yunshang did not dare to be distracted from talking to Xing Nan.
Just as she was about to wave her sword to resist, a circle of big trees appeared out of thin air around the Wind Shadow Beast.
It is strange to say that the sudden appearance of the big trees is already strange, but now they are arranged in a circle, almost forming an airtight wooden barrel.
Although the Wind Shadow Beast also rushed out from the surroundings of more than a dozen big trees in the next moment, the speed was obviously much slower, and the moment it just came out, it needed some time to re-determine the enemy's position.
When masters compete with each other, this short time is extremely precious.
Princess Yunshang naturally would not miss the opportunity. She swung her sword and created a sword light.
Uh-huh...
The sword light roared out, and the wind shadow beast had just rushed out of the surrounding trees, but before it could react, it was hit by the sword light.
The wind spiritual power surrounding the Wind Shadow Beast suddenly shrank, helping the Wind Shadow Beast to remove most of the power of the sword light, but its body was still split far away.
"grumble!"
The Wind Shadow Beast let out another angry roar, and then flew over again.
What surprised both Wind Shadow Beast and Princess Yunshang was that on the way Wind Shadow Beast moved forward, big trees or boulders kept popping up out of thin air, hindering its progress and slowing down its speed.
After Princess Yunshang was briefly surprised, she quickly came to her senses, and then kept waving the sword in her hand.
The sharp white sword light tore through the night, pierced the void, and shot towards the figure of the Wind Shadow Beast. Even if the Wind Shadow Beast reached its maximum speed, it could not avoid being hit by the sword light.
The most important thing is that it is now difficult for the Wind Shadow Beast to get close to Princess Yunshang and Xing Nan. As long as it gets a little closer, countless boulders and trees will appear. When it breaks through the obstacles of boulders or trees, Princess Yunshang and
Xing Nan had already changed positions.
I tried several times in succession, but to no avail.
The Wind Shadow Beast finally ran out of patience, and after being slashed far away by Princess Yunshang again with the sword light, it disappeared directly.
Princess Yunshang carefully looked around the surroundings. She just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly she was shocked and said, "No, the Wind Shadow Beast should go after Duan Rui and the others!"
Without asking what was going on with the trees and boulders that suddenly appeared in Xingnan, Princess Yunshang flew away with her long sword.
Xing Nan's speed is far inferior to Princess Yunshang, but she still won't lose her.
Duan Rui and the others were able to travel a hundred breaths ahead. Even though they ran away from the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts at full speed, Princess Yunshang and Xing Nan caught up with them thirty breaths later.
The Wind Shadow Beast has indeed shifted its target to the three people here.
At this moment, Tang Lei was lying in a pool of blood. His left arm had been separated from his body. There was a wound on his shoulder as big as the mouth of a bowl, and streams of blood were gushing out from the wound.
Tang Lei moaned softly in pain on the ground. His right hand covered the wound on his left shoulder, but he could not stop the blood from flowing out.
Sisters Duan Rui and Duan Zhirou blocked Tang Lei behind them and looked around in horror.
Just now, the Wind Shadow Beast suddenly attacked and took away Tang Lei's left arm with one blow. Before launching the second attack, Princess Yunshang had already rushed over.
Xing Nan then arrived, and the Wind Shadow Beast appeared again.
However, it just stared from a distance and did not rush to attack, just like a patient hunter staring at his prey.
Originally, the representative team of Piaoyun College was a hunter, but now its identity has changed and it has become the prey of monsters.
Very ironic!
But it’s also very realistic!
With one more seriously injured teammate, not only the strength of the entire team has dropped a lot, but it has also added another burden to everyone.
Even if they get through the difficulties this night, the elite representatives of Piaoyun Academy can't expect to hunt monsters again.
If a night's game time is lost in vain, winning the championship has become a luxury.
Except for Xing Nan, everyone felt very heavy in their hearts.
It is no longer important to win the championship or not. How to get rid of or solve the pursuit of this wind shadow beast is the top priority.
After observing the situation for a while, the Wind Shadow Beast finally struck again.
Still a stream of green beast figure rushed toward us, and in the blink of an eye it was less than two feet away from everyone.
boom!
A row of big trees suddenly appeared, blocking the path of the Wind Shadow Beast. It bumped into it and easily passed through the tree wall.
But Princess Yunshang had already struck the Wind Shadow Beast head-on with her sword.
The Wind Shadow Beast also had some experience. After it rushed out, it didn't even look at its surroundings and immediately sank.
The bright white sword light slashed across its head without causing any harm to it.
After all, it is a late third-level wind shadow beast, and its overall strength is by no means weaker than an ordinary eighth-level martial artist or swordsman. Under normal circumstances, its advantage in speed is enough for it to face anyone below the Martial Sect or Sword Sect.
The monks are invincible.
Princess Yunshang is not an ordinary spiritual level sword cultivator. The sword skills she practices and the long sword in her hand are not ordinary, so she can deal with this wind shadow beast. Even so, if Xing Nan does not initiate the transformation
With the help of magic, it will be extremely difficult and dangerous for her to deal with this wind shadow beast.
After dodging Princess Yunshang's sword light, the Wind Shadow Beast pounced directly on Xing Nan.
It has been certain that these trees and boulders that suddenly appeared were made by Xing Nan, so it must deal with Xing Nan first.
Princess Yunshang naturally realized Xing Nan's role now, and she stood in front of Xing Nan with her sword.
Xing Nan himself continued to use the art of transformation to defend against the enemy. As long as the Wind Shadow Beast was still there, he would not stop using the art of transformation to defend.
Big trees suddenly appeared, blocking or surrounding the Wind Shadow Beast. In addition, it was afraid of Princess Yunshang's sword attack, so it was difficult for it to pose a threat to Xing Nan.
However, the movement of the Wind Shadow Beast was already very changeable and difficult to predict, and it was difficult for Princess Yunshang to hit it again.
As a result, the two sides actually fell into a stalemate.
"No, if this continues, we will be completely passive. If we are not careful, we will suffer greater damage again! Moreover, we cannot escape from the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts, and sooner or later we will be dragged to death here." Duan Rui said.
After reviewing the situation, he reminded.
"Then what should we do?" Duan Zhirou asked anxiously.
Xing Nan and Princess Yunshang were too busy dealing with the attacks from the Wind Shadow Beast and were not distracted from answering the conversation.
"In the current situation, the only way to survive is to kill him!" Duan Rui said.
"But now it's impossible to hit it. Not to mention killing it, it's difficult to even seriously injure it." Duan Zhirou said with a wry smile.
The two siblings also wanted to help, but their strength was limited, so they could only hide behind Princess Yunshang and Xing Nan like Tang Lei.
"It's strange, where did these huge rocks and trees come from? If there is a master helping us secretly, why doesn't he show up when we are in such a critical situation?" Duan Zhirou said in confusion again.
How can there be any masters secretly helping me!
Princess Yunshang is also thinking about how to deal with the current critical situation. She knows that it is Xing Nan who can stabilize the situation this time. If she wants to solve this critical situation, she will also have to rely on Xing Nan.
"The space here is too big, which is more conducive for the Wind Shadow Beast to take advantage of its speed. We need to find a narrow place to limit its speed advantage, which will also help us defend!"
Xing Nan, who was constantly using the art of transformation to change branches or stones, suddenly reminded him.
"You've been hiding behind cousin Yunshang, but you still have the nerve to give orders!" Duan Rui said disdainfully.
"You'd better help Tang Lei up quickly and act quickly, otherwise you will regret it if you lose your life here!" Xing Nan said coldly.
"Hurry up and do as he says!"
Duan Rui wanted to get angry and scold Xing Nan to prove who was superior and who was inferior, but before he could speak, Princess Yunshang's shout had already been heard.
Duan Zhirou quickly came to Tang Lei and helped Tang Lei up.
Tang Lei has sealed his tendons and taken the healing elixir, and the wound is no longer bleeding.
Duan Rui's injury was an internal injury. After all, he was an eighth-level martial artist, so he could still hold on. He also supported Tang Lei angrily.
Duan Zhirou glanced around, then pointed to a mountain peak not far away whose outline could only be seen dimly in the dark night, and said: "There is a hill over there. There may be a cave. Let's go and have a look."
So, under the cover of Xing Nan and Princess Yunshang, everyone approached the mountain peak together.
The Wind Shadow Beast never stopped attacking, but unfortunately it always failed.
Before, it was only in the middle of the third level, just harassing people. Now, in the late third level, it doesn't believe that it can't take down these human monks.
After a cup of tea, everyone fought and retreated, and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain peak.
Unfortunately, no one found any caves.
"If there is no ready-made cave, just open a cave!" Xing Nan shouted loudly.
"Coming to take command again, I really think of myself as the team leader!" Duan Rui said.
Duan Zhirou was very obedient. She waved the long sword in her hand and kept chopping the rocks at the foot of the mountain. With her cultivation level, it was not difficult to quickly create a cave.
