Because there were loopholes in the plan, Mu Yu and Lao Tan agreed that Lao Tan would light a fire in the center of this section of road for half an hour. If Mu Yu didn't come back after half an hour, he would find a way to get rid of the monster and return to the cave.
Mu Yu must determine where the critical line is within this half hour, then make a mark and rush back immediately, waiting for daybreak to solve this problem.
It is impossible to say who is more dangerous in this matter. The risks faced by both of them are equally great, and they can only be distributed in this way, because Muyu cannot last long in the hands of the monster, so he cannot be the one who maintains the flame.
"Be careful." Lao Tan watched the sky slowly darken, both of them feeling a little heavy.
"Old Tan, I want to know why you came here to find Evergreen?" Mu Yu broke the silence, trying to find something to talk about to ease the serious atmosphere.
Lao Tan clenched his fists, and after a long time he slowly exhaled and said, "Get the Sky Demon Fruit and ask Senior Dead Tree Evergreen to help me take revenge."
"Revenge?" Mu Yu looked at Lao Tan's slightly trembling body, wondering what kind of hatred made him take the risk and walk into this valley.
"The hatred for killing his father, the hatred for taking away his wife." Lao Tan's words were very simple, but these eight words were as heavy as mountains, and Mu Yu couldn't help but feel shocked.
"You should have known that Deadwood Valley would be dangerous before you came in, right?" Mu Yu asked. He barged in by mistake without knowing it. After all, he had just arrived in Mie Continent not long ago, and he was not very clear about many things in the world of cultivation.
, how could Mu Yu have thought that the Dead Wood Valley, which everyone was frightened by, would be so dangerous?
Lao Tan's face showed unconcealable loneliness and said: "Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with you. I just want to leave here and find other ways."
Mu Yu really wanted to say something nice, such as comforting Lao Tan that he would help generously if he could use his place, but then he thought about it, Lao Tan had a problem that a Nascent Soul stage cultivator couldn't solve, so what ability did he have?
To help others?
Night finally fell, and the river that had been calm during the day began to make splashing noises. Many monsters began to move around, and some dull roars were even heard, which seemed particularly frightening at night.
"Remember, don't get entangled with the monsters for too long, as that will attract more monsters," Lao Tan said.
Mu Yu nodded, and then the two of them jumped off the stone wall.
Lao Tan lit a fire with a fire stone in the area designated by Mu Yu, and Mu Yu quickly ran forward. As he ran, he paid attention to the flames behind him. The penetrating power of the flames was very strong. Although they appeared blurry in the fog, they could still be distinguished.
He moved forward with his back to the flames, and he faced the darkness. As long as he could see the flames in front of him, it meant he had reached the border, and half of the task was completed.
Mu Yu could hear the sparse crawling sounds and the splash of monsters emerging from the water. He could vaguely feel that many monsters were moving quickly towards Lao Tan's fire. He had to speed up his pace.
"Hiss!" There seemed to be the feeling of something being torn apart in front, which made people's ears sore. The sound was extremely harsh, and then there was the sound of grinding teeth and the horrifying sound of chewing.
Muyu carefully avoided the place where the sound came from. He didn't know what kind of monster it was. He just prayed that no matter what he ate, he wouldn't find him.
"Eight hundred and twenty-five steps!"
He ran forward as hard as he could, mentally calculating the number of steps. If he ran about five hundred more steps, he should be near the critical line. At this time, Mu Yu stepped on something soft and sticky under his feet, and almost tripped him.
fall!
"Muyu, there is a monster!" Xiaoshuai suddenly shouted.
Sure enough, a low roar sounded from behind. After running a few steps, Mu Yu felt something wrapped around his feet. He staggered and fell to the ground.
"What the hell is this!"
Mu Yu's flying sword shot out of the air and struck at his feet based on his feeling. The demonic beast seemed to groan in pain, and his feet relaxed. Before Mu Yu had time to be happy, his arm was wrapped up, and then the whole person was
He left the ground and was pulled up.
Mu Yu took out the pill fire stone and saw a disgusting scene in the light of the fire. It was a huge octopus, five or six meters high, with eight slimy tentacles. His hand was entangled in one of the tentacles. The octopus
Its body was deathly gray, and it seemed to be rotten, like a puddle of mud. A rotten smell assaulted its nostrils, almost making Mu Yu faint. It had two eyes, with a fierce look, staring at the fire in a daze, as if it suddenly appeared.
The firelight made it unable to react.
Mu Yu quickly swung his flying sword to cut off the tentacles wrapped around him, and fell to the ground. He rolled around and threw the pill fire stone in his hand away. Only then did the octopus react in pain, and its other
The tentacles wanted to wrap around Mu Yu again, but Mu Yu had already disappeared into the darkness. The Dan Fire Stone could only burn for a short time without input of spiritual power. Mu Yu had to leave before other monsters gathered.
A body as thick as a bucket passed by him. Mu Yu felt that it was a giant snake. It didn't notice him but rushed towards the flames. Mu Yu looked at Lao Tan's flames in the distance and he immediately moved towards
He ran in the opposite direction, but before he could take a few steps, he suddenly bumped into something and knocked himself out.
Mu Yu got up in pain. He felt that all the bones in his body were about to fall apart. He didn't know what kind of monster had hit him. Then he saw two yellow light groups the size of washbasins. At first, he thought they were two little ones.
The lantern, but the lantern suddenly went out and lit up again. Then he realized what kind of lantern it was, it was clearly the eyes of a certain monster! The yellow light went out, which meant it blinked!
"Damn it! What kind of monster is this? Big-eyed monster?"
If the eyes are so big, how can the body be so small? Mu Yu felt a chill in his heart, this is really painful!
Those two eyes were shining with light beams. Its eyes could actually emit two beams of light. The two beams of light were sweeping around, as if looking for something to hit it. Mu Yu quickly stood up to avoid the two beams of light.
, he didn’t understand why these two beams of light were so bright, and no monsters came to trouble them?
Mu Yu moved cautiously, and the pill fire stone he had just thrown out had been extinguished. Lao Tan's light flickered, probably because he was fighting the monster and was not trying to please himself. Suddenly, the two beams of light stayed on
Mu Yu was shocked, and he couldn't think about anything anymore, so he ran away. There seemed to be a whistling sound in his ears, and something swept over. Mu Yu lay down to avoid it, but his back hurt.
, was scratched by something sharp.
The two beams of light stared at Mu Yu again, and then a beam of flame suddenly spurted over.
"Fuck! You can breathe fire even if you live in water!" Mu Yu cursed and rolled over. His clothes started to burn, and he quickly put them out.
"Muyu, blind its eyes!" Xiaoshuai shouted in Muyu's arms. Just now Muyu was lying on his stomach and almost crushed him.
"I have to be able to stab it too!"
Mu Yu's flying sword stabbed one of the eyes, and then the light in that eye disappeared. There was a crisp "ding" sound. Mu Yu thought he had been stabbed, and then the eye glowed again.
It just closed its eyes!
"Xiao Shuai, its skin is as thick as yours!"
Mu Yu retracted his sword and dodged again. This time it was not fire, but a water column. This guy eats both water and fire! What kind of monster is this?
"One sword! Use Uncle Wolf's sword quickly!" Xiao Shuai shouted.
"That will have sequelae!"
Mu Yu knew what Xiaoshuai wanted to say. He wanted Mu Yu to use the sword intention given to him by the unknown swordsman. The unknown swordsman had warned him that using his arm would break his arm due to his cultivation level.
"I'll treat your fracture!" Xiaoshuai said.
Mu Yu had forgotten about Xiaoshuai, the medical beast. After his chest was stained again, he couldn't care so much about it anymore. Just break the bones!
"My unicorn arm is going to attack!"
Mu Yu roared, he knew how to activate the sword intention, which was equivalent to a seal. As long as spiritual power was injected into it, the sword intention would actively integrate into Mu Yu's flying sword.
"Go and eat shit!" Mu Yu felt that his arm was full of explosive power. He urgently needed an outlet to channel the power in his arm. The power of the sword intention was too great, and his arm began to fade.
It hurt, the blood vessels seemed to be stretched open, and the bones were squeezed. The unknown swordsman was right, with his current cultivation level, he simply could not withstand this sword intent!
Mu Yu gritted his teeth, and he couldn't care about so much at the moment. The power of the sword's intention doubled the power of the shadow in his hand. The sword's intention continued to surge. He knew that if he continued to gather momentum, his whole arm would probably explode.
, so his left hand hit the end of the hilt of the Shadow Sword tightly, and then the Shadow Sword in his hand came out of his hand, and stabbed towards those eyes with a huge force.
"Did you get stabbed?" Xiaoshuai asked softly.
"It seems that the stab is crooked." Mu Yu found that the two beams of light were still there, and the monster didn't close its eyes at all this time.
"You can also stab it crookedly!"
"You go ahead! I can't control that power."
The two beams of light stopped moving, then began to flicker on and off, as if they were blinking, and finally began to sway left and right. A loud falling sound was heard, the eyes completely lost their light, and the surroundings returned to darkness.
.
"Dead?" Mu Yu was a little surprised. Isn't its skin so thick? Why is it so vulnerable?
"Why are you still standing there? Run!" Xiaoshuai reminded.
Muyu felt that what Xiaoshuai said made sense. He spotted Lao Tan's firelight and ran with his back towards the firelight. After running a few steps, a heartbreaking pain came from his arm. He felt as if his arm had just been hit by a stone.
, the bones have been cracked, the whole arm is in burning pain, and I can't move.
"Sure enough, it's broken!" Mu Yu broke into a cold sweat. He had never experienced such pain before, and his eyes were filled with tears.
"Wow! Crushed fracture, you are too weak." Xiaoshuai's little paw touched Mu Yu's arm, which was so painful that Mu Yu almost threw it away.
"You are so weak! Heal your wounds quickly." Mu Yu ran a few more steps, but finally stopped because he was too painful to run.
"It's okay, it's fine." Xiaoshuai said easily.
"How long will it take?" Mu Yu asked.
"It takes two or three days to recover."
"What? Two or three days? What should I do if I encounter a monster again later?"
Mu Yu wanted to cry but had no tears. This handsome guy was so stupid that he thought he could be cured immediately. Because he had experienced a fight, he had no idea how many steps he had taken.
"Shua——"
Just when Mu Yu was complaining, a strange voice suddenly sounded from behind. Mu Yu's heart trembled because he no longer had the ability to fight.
