Chapter seven hundred and ninety nine maze of thorns
Qin Luzhu felt a sudden chill at first, and the blood in her body was almost congealed, but soon there was a warm heat surrounding herself, but Zhang Chi continuously delivered heat energy to her.
Without the blazing flames spewed by the thunderbirds, and without the help of Cang Yuan's full punch, Immortal Zhang really wouldn't be sure of crossing the cold wave. In fact, he doesn't have much confidence now. He doesn't know what's happening around the ruins of the holy city.
What is the condition of this cold wave? Even masters like He Donglai and Qin Junshi have to wait until the cold wave subsides before they dare to enter the Holy City. We can deduce the power of this cold wave.
One of the reasons why Zhang Daxian dared to go deep into dangerous situations was that he was surrounded by the netherworld. Another reason was that he absorbed a large amount of firepower from the Thunderbirds.
The cold wave was rolling in, blocking our sight, and it became increasingly difficult to walk further in.
Zhang Chi originally thought that the firepower he had absorbed was enough for them to withstand the cold wave, but the further he walked, the less confident he became, because he found that a large area of ice appeared in front of him. If he wanted to continue moving forward, he had to use heat to melt the ice, but another one
A serious problem was before him. If he were outside, he could absorb the spiritual energy and convert it into heat energy in his body, melting a channel in the ice. However, after entering the cold wave, he found that the spiritual energy here was extremely thin.
Even if he can absorb spiritual energy, there is very little spiritual energy available for him to absorb, and the ice layer is unknown how thick it is. If his heat energy cannot be sustained after entering it, then he and Qin Luzhu are likely to be trapped.
Trapped in it.
Zhang Chi couldn't help but think of the Nether Ancestor. He was trapped in the iceberg when he first met the Nether Ancestor. Could it be that the Nether Ancestor also encountered the same situation back then.
There was no possibility of turning back, because the place he had just passed had been condensed by the cold wave. Invisibly, they were already in a dilemma.
Qin Luzhu didn't dare to speak, so she patted his chest with her hand to signal him to move on. There was no other choice now.
Zhang Chi made up his mind in an instant, pulled out the dragon scale knife, put it against the solid ice, and used the heat in his body to quickly increase the temperature of the dragon scale knife. He used the hot dragon scale knife to cut the ice wall, which would minimize the loss.
of energy to achieve the maximum effect.
Despite this, Zhang Chi's energy is still declining sharply. The cold wave is like an invisible and powerful enemy, constantly consuming Zhang Chi's energy. This is not only a test for his body, but also a test for his psychological quality. According to this
He can't sustain it for long at the rate of loss.
At this time, the effect of the extreme training given to him by the Nether Ancestor became more and more obvious. Zhang Chi had already had the experience of being depleted of the energy in his body, and that experience was extremely precious.
Qin Luzhu's pace gradually slowed down, and he also felt the tremendous pressure he was under.
Zhang Chi felt that the heat energy he was sending to Qin Luzhu was hindered. He looked down and saw Qin Luzhu's eyes blinking hard. He understood in his heart that Qin Luzhu was trying to help him save his little spiritual energy. He was moved.
, the pressure in her heart suddenly increased. In such a situation, Qin Luzhu could not sustain it for long.
At the critical moment, it is not just strength that determines victory or defeat, but also perseverance and persistence. Zhang Chi kept moving step by step. However, the energy loss was faster than he imagined. The dragon scale knife in his hand became heavier and heavier. He had already
Unable to input heat energy into the dragon scale sword, he felt that he was about to run out of energy. He tried his best to find spiritual energy. The spiritual energy in the cold wave was so thin that it was almost negligible, and he was unable to obtain energy from the low temperature of the cold wave.
Qin Luzhu's cold hands touched his cheek. Her eyelashes were already covered with ice crystals, and her clear eyes seemed to be frozen. Zhang Chi sensed spiritual energy, which came from Qin Luzhu in her arms.
, but how could he absorb Qin Luzhu's energy? Wouldn't that be putting his lover to death?
Qin Luzhu blinked her eyes. She was speechless, but she already understood in her heart that the situation between the two of them was at the point of life and death. Rather than die together, it would be better to sacrifice herself to save Zhang Chi. The psychic energy that Zhang Chi sensed was Qin Luzhu's.
Taking the initiative to remove her defenses, she wanted to transfer spiritual energy to Zhang Chi and help him gain a chance of survival.
Although Zhang Chi was extremely resistant in his heart, he couldn't refuse Qin Luzhu's kindness. Maybe this was their last chance. Zhang Chi raised the dragon scale knife in his hand and used the spiritual energy he got from Qin Luzhu to stab forward suddenly.
The dragon scale knife penetrated the ice wall in front. It was blocked at first, and then I felt a smooth breakthrough. I relaxed my wrist and dug a big hole in the ice wall with a flick. A fresh air flow poured in from the hole. Compared with finally breaking through,
After crossing the ice wall, Zhang Chi was even more surprised to find that this airflow contained a large amount of spiritual energy.
The nearly exhausted spiritual energy in the body was quickly replenished, and Zhang Chi immediately converted the spiritual energy into heat energy and injected it into Qin Luzhu's body again. Qin Luzhu's almost frozen body became warm again.
Zhang Chi raised his foot and kicked the ice wall in front of him, and carried Qin Luzhu through the ice cave. As soon as he passed through the ice cave, the entrance of the cave slowly shrank under the influence of the cold wave, and after a while it was completely closed.
Qin Luzhu lay limp and powerless in Zhang Chi's arms. She did not have such a talent as Zhang Chi, and it was as if she had experienced a life and death catastrophe.
Zhang Chi was convinced that she was fine, so he observed the surrounding environment. Although there was an ice wall shrouded in cold waves behind him, moss had already appeared under his feet, and above his head was a rolling sky of purple clouds, like a purple wave surging above his head.
.
Ahead is a patch of red thorns, and sections of the city wall are vaguely exposed among the thorns.
Zhang Chi walked toward the thorn bush. The temperature began to rise obviously, and the aura in the air was more abundant than ever before. Zhang Chi stopped and found a flat stone tablet base to sit down on, taking the opportunity to adjust and recover.
In such an environment, both of them recovered very quickly. After Qin Luzhu recovered, he stood up from Zhang Chi's arms, looked around, breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "It's a good risk."
Zhang Chi was a little scared when he thought about what he had just experienced. If the situation lasted for a while, they would both be trapped alive inside the ice wall. He looked at Qin Luzhu affectionately and said: "Sister Luzhu, you
It’s so good to me.” He sacrificed himself for others and was willing to sacrifice his life to save his lover. Such deep feelings are really touching.
Qin Luzhu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Tell me the truth, what kind of evil kung fu have you learned?"
Zhang Chi was stunned for a moment: "What?"
Qin Luzhu didn't have the ability to actively transfer her spiritual energy to him. This was because Zhang Chi first stopped heating and then began to absorb her spiritual energy. Of course, this was Zhang Chi's unconscious behavior. Qin Luzhu just cooperated with him and removed the energy from her.
Defend and cooperate with him as much as possible.
After listening to Qin Luzhu's words, Zhang Chi figured out what was going on. However, he never thought about sacrificing Qin Luzhu to fulfill himself. Naturally, Qin Luzhu didn't think so either. In that situation, she originally thought
Sacrifice yourself to achieve relaxation.
Qin Luzhu said: "Did you become a soul eater?"
If it weren't for the experience just now, Zhang Chi wouldn't have known that he had the ability to absorb other people's spiritual energy. He touched the back of his head and said, "I guess this ability has just been developed by you."
Qin Luzhu couldn't help but laugh. After experiencing the disaster of life and death, his mood became much more relaxed. He turned around and looked at the ice wall shrouded in the cold wave, and said softly: "It seems that we have entered the ruins of the Holy City first."
Zhang Chi said: "What's the point of coming in? Our purpose of coming here this time is to stop Mr. He and the others. It's good that they didn't see us, so we went in first."
Qin Luzhu looked at the red thorns and said, "There should be the ruins of the Holy City inside."
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "Calculating, they will be able to come in in three days."
The two looked at each other, and they instantly understood each other's thoughts. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they wanted to enter the ruins of the Holy City to explore first. There must be a shocking secret hidden in a place that even the Nether Ancestor is interested in. If it can be found,
How to deal with Netherworld, then this is a major event that can turn the tide of the entire Netherworld Ruins war.
Zhang Chi raised his dragon-scaled sword and waved it twice in the air, saying, "I'll open the way!" After recovering his physical strength and spiritual energy, he was naturally confident.
Qin Luzhu suddenly laughed. Zhang Chi didn't know why she was laughing. Qin Luzhu pointed at his back. It turned out that when Zhang Chi protected her and rushed into the cold wave, he was sprayed violently by the thunderbird, and his clothes were burned into dew.
Backpack.
After Qin Luzhu reminded Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi felt a chill on his back, but fortunately there was no burn. The two of them sorted out their accompanying items, and there was actually a change of clothes among them, so Zhang Chi quickly changed into it.
The experience just now made Qin Luzhu look at Zhang Chi's strength with admiration, and asked Zhang Chi what kung fu he had secretly practiced recently. Zhang Chi did not tell her what the Nether Ancestor had taught him, but said that before coming here, in order to ensure that he completed his mission, Qin Junqing specially
He was given intensive training.
Qin Luzhu was doubtful. In her impression, her mother didn't seem to be that powerful. With Zhang Chi's current strength, even his mother might not be his opponent.
After the two adjusted, they immediately began to march towards the Holy City. Zhang Chi waved the dragon scale knife and prepared to cut through the thorns. But strangely, as soon as they approached the red thorn bush, the thorn bushes sensed their arrival and fell to both sides, and something unexpectedly appeared in the middle.
opened a channel.
Zhang Chi praised: "Those who understand current affairs are heroes and sensible!"
Qin Luzhu held his wrist and said, "Be careful of fraud."
Zhang Chi pointed ahead. This spreading passage led all the way to the black gate of the ruins of the holy city. It was only about one kilometer from their position to the gate. Currently, this was the closest and only way.
He whispered in Qin Luzhu's ear: "If you dare to play tricks, I will burn the thorn bushes with fire."
Qin Luzhu said: "What are you doing so quietly? Do you think these thorns can understand you?"
Zhang Chi said: "It's very ghostly." I always feel that this thing has spiritual energy, otherwise why would it take the initiative to give way to a path.
Qin Luzhu said: "There is fraud in it."
The two of them walked in and walked for more than ten meters. The fallen thorns behind them stood upright again, and the road ahead also changed. As expected, Qin Luzhu was right. The thorn bushes brought them in first, and then the road changed into
In the maze, looking ahead, the Holy City has been lost.
Zhang Chi took out the dragon scale knife again. It seemed that the only way to do it was to cut through the thorns and thorns, which was a relatively primitive method.
Qin Luzhu stopped him and said: "Don't worry, this should be a formation, let's take a walk and see."
The two walked along the passage, and after a few steps the road began to change again. Qin Luzhu saw the secret, took out a map and looked at it, with a smile on his lips and said: "Yes, although this maze has changed,
But as long as you follow the rules, there won't be any problems."
Zhang Chi said: "What's the rule?"
Qin Luzhu said: "You just come with me."
Zhang Chi followed Qin Luzhu around in the thorn bushes. After walking around for about fifteen minutes, his eyes suddenly opened up. There were no thorn bushes blocking the way ahead. They had walked out of the thorn bushes.
Zhang Chi looked back at the thorn bush and praised: "Awesome!"
Qin Luzhu said: "It's nothing special. I used to play this kind of maze game a lot. People often can't see clearly when they're in it. You have to have an overall view."
Zhang Chi said: "What you said seems a little familiar to me, as if your mother taught me." He was also talking nonsense. Qin Junqing did teach him some basic formations, but they had no connection with the thorny maze in front of him.
, but Zhang Chi estimated that Qin Luzhu should have learned it from Qin Junqing.
Unexpectedly, Qin Luzhu fell silent. After a while, he sighed and said, "Don't talk about her." He walked to a stone monument and browsed the symbols on the stone monument.
Zhang Chi followed her. He didn't understand these words and could only act like a follower. He found that Qin Luzhu's figure was getting better and better. The front and back were bulging, which must be inseparable from his own efforts.
Qin Luzhu said: "This holy city may have existed for tens of thousands of years."
Zhang Chi said: "It doesn't have much history. Converted to external time, ten thousand years is equivalent to more than three hundred years."
Qin Luzhu said: "Ten thousand years is not ten thousand years."
Zhang Chi said: "What's the point of so many years?"
Qin Luzhu said meaningfully: "Of course it makes sense, it means that the Holy City has nothing to do with the mysterious bureau."
Zhang Chi nodded, is there any need to ask? It has only been a few decades since the establishment of the Mysterious Bureau. Of course, it is impossible to build a holy city with a history of three hundred years in Netherworld Ruins. In other words, Netherworld Ruins was established after the Mysterious Bureau.
It existed before.
Zhang Chi said: "Has the Netherworld Ruins been discovered by the Mystery Bureau a long time ago? But for some reason, it was not reported?"
Qin Luzhu said: "I don't know, but I think if Netherworld Ruins is exposed, it will definitely not be a good thing for the outside world."
Zhang Chi nodded. Human beings have been fighting to the death for resources since ancient times. The spiritual energy reserves in Netherworld Ruins are extremely rich. And from what we know so far, we don’t know how many secrets are hidden in it. If outside careerists know about it,
, there won’t be peace here, and the outside world won’t be peaceful either.
