At this time, it was dark and the moon was rising, and the dark tree crowns at the foot of the mountain covered patches of trees. A faint path led to the mountain. The roadside was overgrown with thorns and bushes. On the platform halfway up the mountain, there were only a few huge pine trees facing the gentle night breeze.
Pendulum, the grass on the platform is sparse and the rocks are exposed.
The third division commander has been observing Li Yan. After he picked up the dumped water bag, he discovered something different. The color of the rock beside Li Yan was different from other places under the moonlight. The color was a little darker, and the water stains
There is nothing wrong with deepening it. After all, that place was soaked by the water spilled when the water bag was dumped, so it is naturally different from other places.
But just when Master Ji glanced away and was about to look away, he felt something was slightly wrong in his heart, so he looked at that place again, his eyes filled with spiritual energy, looking at things under the moonlight.
But it was no different from daytime. He found that there seemed to be a flash of light in that place. It was obviously a reflection caused by water adhering to something. However, because it was too far away, he still couldn't see it clearly with his current magic power.
I lowered my head and looked at the foot of the mountain and the mountainside again. I calculated in my mind that there were no big trees from the foot of the mountain upwards. They were basically thorns and shrubs that spread upward. This kind of low vegetation mostly grows horizontally from its roots to the ground.
, branches and vines are criss-crossed, and it is obviously extremely difficult to hide quietly among them, but there are still several taller trees at the nearest foot of the mountain.
At that moment, he folded down from the huge tree canopy, like a dexterous squirrel, and arrived at the foot of the tree in a few jumps. After a few jumps, he reached the trees at the foot of the mountain, and then he chose one to observe Li.
The best view of the trees is that they are floating up and down again.
Li Yan sat on a rock and leaned against a pine tree with his eyes closed. It looked like he was pretending to be asleep, but in fact, he had maximized his spiritual power and listened to the sounds around him with all his heart.
He has been here for more than two days. Just now, he suddenly felt as if he was being spied on. Although he did not hear any sounds or see any people or animals, in just a short moment, he was already here.
The natural balance between heaven and earth that I had become familiar with suddenly seemed to be torn apart by one hand.
"Is this him? It's a pity that the 'Guishui Zhenjing' has only been practiced to the mid-level peak of the first level. If you can break through to the second level, you can release your spiritual consciousness, and the chance of saving your life will be much greater."
"
After months of hard training in the "Guishui Sutra", his magic power has increased rapidly, and he has also become familiar with many functions of this immortal method. Since this immortal method is based on cultivating the five elements and regenerating each other, his magic power is compared with the same.
The level of monks is naturally much higher. For example, ordinary monks can only release their spiritual consciousness when they reach the third level of the Qi Condensation Stage, but the "Guishui Zhenjing" can already release it when it breaks through to the second level of the Qi Condensation Stage.
"I'm sure it's not Hong Linying just now. I've given him the 'Breathe Guidance Technique' as the first level of 'Mu Yin Kung Fu'. Those formulas are genuine. He won't be able to pick out anything in a short time.
The problem is that he also has no spiritual roots, so he can't practice telepathy. But as long as he feels that the 'secret book' is true, he can definitely see the extraordinary things. With his nature as a martial artist, he should be able to come and try it.
Those who have obtained the follow-up skills. So the abnormal feeling just now is most likely that Ji Wenhe has found this place. Although it is only a momentary feeling, it can basically be determined. Now that Ji Wenhe has chased here, Hong Lin Ying still hasn't arrived yet, so can I just resist by myself?"
The third army division came to the treetop again. Although this tree only grew at the foot of the mountain and was not as tall as the tree when it was lurking before, it could still barely see the platform, and the line of sight was much closer.
After a while, Master Ji couldn't help but show a hint of ridicule on his dark face, "It turned out to be a forced crossbow. Hong Linying actually gave this thing to him. It's really cruel. If someone didn't notice, it would be a big trouble."
.”
"Strong Crossbow", the string is made of several twisted tendons of ordinary monsters. It is equipped with a crossbow box, which contains seven strong crossbows. The crossbow arrows are loaded in the box in advance. The shooting power is five times that of ordinary bows and arrows.
Six times, which is two or three times that of ordinary crossbow arrows. It is usually pulled by three to four people, but this is too low in practicality. After continuous improvement by skilled craftsmen in the army, it can be controlled by a master who has practiced internal strength. But even so, it is often
A second-rate master in martial arts can only fire about three crossbows in a row. So, while continuing to improve, a groove was added to the crossbow, which can accommodate the forefoot of an adult and fire the crossbow with leg strength. Ordinary
An adult can also fire one, so it is also called a "strong-footed crossbow".
This kind of portable weapon with huge destructive power may be fatal even to immortal cultivators. Ordinary monks are not in the foundation-building stage. In addition to possessing magic power and some magical skills, their physical toughness is only slightly stronger than ordinary cultivators.
, being hit by such a fatal killing device is also fatal, but if you have taken precautions in advance, it will be a different matter.
There is another type of monk, the body-refining monk. Even in the Qi-condensing stage, the physical toughness of this kind of monk is far different from that of ordinary people. The specific toughness depends on the physical skills he practices.
The third army division carefully observed the small area. The "Strong Foot Crossbow" was hidden in the gap between the huge rock and the ground. Maybe the gap was not big, and it was just for taking it out quickly without revealing the intention, so it was only exposed.
There was a little bow string, and Li Yan accidentally knocked over the water bag just now, but there were water drops on the bow string. If he hadn't noticed the reflection of the water attached to the string, he would have been careless and immediately said to
Hong Linying was also filled with hatred that such a killing weapon could be given to Li Yan.
Looking at the low thorn bushes extending up the mountain under the tree, Master Ji frowned. He was still about two hundred feet away from the mountainside. If he could sneak another hundred feet, he was absolutely sure that he could sneak up on Li.
Before Yan could react, he was in front of him.
However, his brows straightened immediately. This was not a problem at all. Now that he had found Li Yan, all that was left for him was to wait for an opportunity.
To put it bluntly, this timing is when Li Yan is tired. Even if he is at the third level of Qi Condensation Stage, he still cannot use meditation to replace sleep, let alone a person who is at the early stage of the first level of Qi Condensation Stage.
Li Yan just sat on the rock. The night in the valley became darker and darker, and the moonlight on the top became darker and darker.
It was getting cooler and cooler, and fatigue came over him in waves. He slowly relaxed his body, leaned against the pine tree, and closed his eyes involuntarily.
The third army master was lying on the tree, looking at Li Yan without blinking. At this time, it was already midnight. Watching Li Yan slowly close his eyes, he also began to slowly close his eyes, and slowly adjusted the breath in his body.
Spiritual power, the spirit has been highly tense these past two nights, coupled with the constant running around, a monk as strong as him is also very tired.
Now that it was confirmed that Li Yan had started to sleep, he began to adjust his breath and gain momentum, which also allowed Li Yan to fall into a deeper sleep.
Half an hour later, Master Ji slowly opened his eyes. After looking at Li Yan for a while, his figure flashed and disappeared into the tree. Then he only saw the figure on the way up the mountain. He flashed again and then disappeared. The next moment
It flashed further away, and only occasionally the thorny branches and leaves on the path swayed slightly.
Looking at the platform on the mountainside that was getting closer and closer, Master Ji's heart was as calm as water. Li Yan became more and more clear in his eyes. He silently calculated in his heart that with two more breaths, he would be able to sneak up to Li Yan and look at him.
Li Yan, who was sleeping peacefully against the tree, suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, "How can a person sleep so peacefully in this valley?" Even though there are fewer monsters in this place for unknown reasons,
But as he got closer and saw Li Yan's sleeping posture more clearly, the bad feeling in his heart became stronger, so his spiritual energy rushed to his legs and he no longer concealed his figure.
Just when Master Ji made his decision, Li Yan, who was leaning against the tree, suddenly opened his eyes, his bloodshot eyes flashing with determination. He lowered his body and stretched out his hands and feet under the rock.
The next moment he just needs to pick it up, set it, and put it away.
The third army division commander was still in mid-air. When he saw Li Yan's eyes suddenly opened, he secretly said "Not good" in his heart, but he had already made a judgment in the flash of lightning. He turned and rushed towards the "Strong Foot Crossbow"
.
It's a long story, but in fact, just between his breaths, Li Yan's hand had just touched the bow string, and when he was about to hold it, he immediately pulled it out. The third army master in black robe had already jumped on him when he heard the hunting sound.
Grabbing Li Yan's outstretched wrist, his other hand surged to grab the bow string in the crack of the stone.
Li Yan was shocked when he saw this. How dare he reach for the "Strong Foot Crossbow"? He quickly retracted his arms, kicked the ground with his toes, and rolled to the side in a panic.
The third division master immediately grasped nothing with one hand. This was because he had to grab two objects at the same time. Due to the limitation of his arm span, at this time, his other hand had already grasped the bow string in the gap between the rock and the ground, and his body was exhausted and fell to the ground.
Pulling outward, the tip of his toes touched the ground, and he tried to pick up the crossbow, then jumped into the air again to catch Li Yan.
Li Yan had already rolled away from the stone surface and had not yet stood up. Ji Junshi only needed to rise and fall to reach him.
However, at this moment, Master Ji suddenly felt his feet tighten, and a strong force lifted him up from his head and feet. In just a moment, he was already in the air. However, there was a loud "click" and the speed of his figure
Suddenly speeding up, the whole body fell rapidly towards the cliff behind the pine tree, like a meteor falling to the ground.
This sudden change shocked Master Ji , in a hurry, he felt dizzy, the wind blew in his ears, and his body plummeted down the cliff like a meteor. In just one or two breaths, he had already fallen seven or eight feet.
The Third Army Master calmed down for a moment, and with a flick of his finger, an arc-shaped wind blade flew towards his feet. Then, with a light movement of his feet, his fall slowed down. He saw the opportunity and grabbed it with lightning speed with his other hand.
On the cliff, there was only a muffled "poof" sound, and he forcibly embedded his five fingers deeply into the hard granite cliff. Then with a push of his five fingers, his body was lifted up again, with his toes on the cliff.
At the protruding point, his figure was lifted up by more than ten feet. Then his feet clicked in several places, and he was back on the cliff again.
At this time, I could faintly hear the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground at the bottom of the valley below. It seemed that the height of the cliff was not less than a hundred feet. As soon as Master Ji reached the top of the cliff, he saw a figure running down the mountain. It turned out that it was Li Yan who had just stretched his head.
I glanced down the cliff and saw that the military advisor Ji had only fallen seven or eight feet. He used his magic to cut off the boulder at his feet, and then flew up again. Suddenly he felt something was wrong.
Upon seeing this, Master Ji shouted, "Where are you going, evil disciple?" He was already very angry and had a murderous intention in his heart. He actually fell into this kid's trap. If he hadn't possessed the magical power, he would have been buried on the cliff.
He was fooled, and even now he still doesn't know how he fell into that kid's scheme.
The sound of shouting and shouting shook the forest valley, and flocks of birds roosting in the forest came out of the forest. When Li Yan in front heard this, he was already very anxious. He hurriedly rushed towards the thorn bushes on the side of the path down the mountain.
At that moment, he didn't care about the thorns cutting him off and rolled out diagonally.
Seeing this, the Jijun division snorted again and jumped out in the air, but Li Yan also rolled over risking his life. The speed of going down the mountain was really much faster. After a few ups and downs, the Jijun division did not intercept him. After a few more
After breathing out, they were almost at the foot of the mountain, but the army commander Ji had already caught up behind Li Yan. Seeing that Li Yan, who was wearing a black robe with torn strands, he forcibly stopped rolling. After stumbling, he got up and disappeared into the woods.
The third army commander was in mid-air, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes. He flicked his finger again, and a blue light arc wind blade slashed towards Li Yan's leg. He was about to cut off Li Yan's leg.
Li Yan's whole body was filled with spiritual power. Although he had a lot of injuries on the way down, they were all superficial injuries, but his internal organs were protected by his spiritual power and were not injured at all. Just when he stood up, he was about to
When he submerged into the forest, he suddenly felt a sharp force shooting towards his legs. A warning sign suddenly arose in his heart. Immediately, the spiritual power poured into his legs. At the same time, the figure twisted forcefully, and it was suddenly wrong.
In one direction, he suddenly turned around with the wrong force. His internal organs suddenly felt stuffy, and he almost fainted. Then he felt a sharp pain in his legs. Looking down, he saw a blue light blade grazing his thigh.
He flashed past and brought out a piece of flesh and blood. It turned out that although his reaction was fast, whether it was magic power, martial arts, or fighting experience, he was far from the experienced Ji Junshi. Not to mention that Ji Junshi still used immortal magic to attack. At that moment
Although his thigh was not completely severed, a large piece of flesh and blood was still removed from the leg.
Li Yan groaned, his legs lost strength and he fell down. Seeing this, Military Master Ji stepped over with a sinister smile.
