Chapter 32 Chapter Thirty-Two

Being chased and killed by as many as 20 firebirds was truly a spectacular scene. The fireballs were like meteorite showers falling from the sky, constantly bombarding the ground behind us.There was an endless grassland under the feet, and the fireball quickly ignited the nearby grasslands, with blazing flames and thick smoke everywhere. Yanagi Endo and I played a survival game of hunting and being hunted with the firebirds in the thick smoke and fire. At present, Liu Yuanteng's cultivation base is much higher than mine, and with my assistance, the situation immediately reversed.Liu Yuanteng's black iron whip danced like a spirit snake, sweeping away all the fireballs that aimed at him, and from time to time suddenly shot into the sky, and three firebirds had already turned into flames under his black iron whip.

I have wings, am no stranger to flying in the air, and have the advantage of being in the right place.I shuttled nimbly among the firebirds, and the dark energy lightsaber slashed rapidly, turning the three firebirds into flames. With the cooperation of Liu Yuandeng and I, the number of a large group of firebirds decreased rapidly.The cunning big firebird also sensed the change between us, screamed ferociously, turned around and rushed towards me viciously, looking like we were going to die together. Its huge body is still a little smaller than me, but several firebirds rushed towards me after it, and the momentum suddenly changed.For such a situation where the advantages and disadvantages are clear at a glance, I chose to avoid it.

I was flying high in the sky, and Liu Endo couldn't help me. The firebirds chased after me like crazy, forcing me to land, so as to get into Liu Endo's attack range. We fought back against them with the strength of the two of us, and the firebirds converged. A little bit. I tried to summon the "Spread Wings" crossbow, but it may be because I and Falcon'er have merged, Xiaohu was unable to establish a relationship with Falcon'er to assemble the crossbow. As soon as I breathed a sigh of relief, I saw the giant firebirds leading the group of firebirds and ignoring us, accelerating straight towards the stone tower. Liu Yuandeng laughed strangely: "Are these strange birds crazy? Do they know that they are not our opponents?" , Do you want to hit the wall and commit suicide?"

I also looked at the group of fierce firebirds getting farther and farther away from us in wonder, Liu Yuanteng suddenly frowned and said: "I wanted to get the power of the spirit cauldron this time, but I didn't know that to get the spirit cauldron here. Learning alchemy is good now, not only did not get the spirit tripod, but it made me so embarrassed." "No, they are going to destroy the main sculpture in the hall on the first floor of the stone tower." I interrupted Liu Yuanteng decisively.With a snap of my wings, I flew up into the sky, and hurriedly chased after the flock of firebirds.

Liu Yuanteng's voice came from behind: "Hey, let them go if they want to go." The main sculpture is the core of the entire stone tower. If the main sculpture is destroyed, the stone tower will be finished.I kept speeding up and chasing after the Firebirds.However, I was still one step too late. The moment I stepped into the stone tower, the huge plant sculpture collapsed under the suicidal impact of many firebirds. The light of the stone tower suddenly disappeared, and the stone tower fell into darkness. Just as I was sighing for it, a ball of fire suddenly lit up. In the place of the original plant sculpture, it was replaced by a giant firebird sculpture. The fire snake was winding around, and the firebird body gradually petrified and solidified.

A tiny red light broke through the confinement of the stone tower and pierced straight into the sky. As the fire bird sculpture gradually solidified, more fire snakes merged into the red light, the red light gradually became stable, and the beam of light became thicker and thicker. "What tricks is it playing?" Beside me, Liu Yuandeng also walked into the stone tower and stared at the Firebird sculpture and said in a deep voice. "Get out of the way." I said. I held my hands together, and a dark energy lightsaber quickly formed in my hands, and gradually grew in size. The dark energy in my body continued to flow into the lightsaber, and a giant lightsaber more than three meters long and thick as a thigh bloomed With dazzling brilliance, the body of the sword is surrounded by countless star-like light spots, adding to the sense of mystery and power of the giant lightsaber.

"What? What are you going to do!" Liu Yuanteng's trembling voice revealed doubts and panic. Because the giant lightsaber is too big and gathers too much dark energy, I can no longer fully control it, so dark energy particles are constantly being automatically stripped from the lightsaber. I shouted loudly: "Break!" Liu Yuanteng backed away in shock, and said loudly: "Are you crazy? Fool! You are not strong enough to use such a strong force now, there will be backlash." The giant lightsaber made a dull thunder, and slashed on the giant firebird sculpture that had been solidified for more than half, and a loud rumbling sound hit my eardrum fiercely, and the dazzling brilliance splashed in all directions in the main hall on the first floor shoot.I didn't have time to see the result of my first strike, and felt that the giant lightsaber was about to collapse. I roared again, and the dark energy lightsaber was raised above my head again and slashed down.

"Boom!" This time the sound was even louder, a thunderous sound rolling in.The moment the giant dark energy lightsaber struck the sculpture of the Firebird, it collapsed due to the shock. I felt stars shining in front of my eyes, and a sense of weakness spread throughout my body. The Firebird sculpture was finally destroyed by me before it took shape, and an angry roar came from the ground, shaking my heart. The explosion produced a powerful force, turning the hall on the first floor into a dangerous place filled with chaotic energy particles.I was blown away by the powerful anti-shock force. In the air, I managed to pull out the very weak dark energy remaining in my body to condense into a protective mask, but the protective mask was easily destroyed by a large number of energy particles. smash.

My body is like floating and sinking in the ocean, and will be swallowed by the overwhelming energy flow at any time.Suddenly the clothes on my back tightened, and I was pulled out of the tower. I was pulled tens of meters away from the stone tower, and I was thrown to the ground. Looking at the stone tower from a distance, several kinds of light are in the stone tower, and the stone tower is wobbly and seems to collapse at any time. I am gratefully relieved and said: "Thank you." Liu Yuanteng said mercilessly: "If you want to die, let me defeat you before you go. The chaotic and violent particle flow that filled the stone tower after the explosion will easily tear you to pieces."

The stone pagoda gradually became darker, and finally became dark, and two more red lights broke through the clouds in the distance, echoing the other beams of light. I said: "The twenty-four divine gates were attacked at the same time, don't you think this is a conspiracy?" Liu Yuanteng sighed and said: "Conspiracies are always accompanied by benefits. Even if we know that this is a conspiracy, it is difficult for you and me to change the status quo. It is better to be smart and preserve our strength to deal with unknown dangers." Even if no one told me, I also know the importance of these twenty-four stone pagodas to Taohuayuan, the inheritance and belief of thousands of years, once they collapse, the Taohuayuan will also be destroyed.

Now that I am a member of the Huaxin Sect, I am naturally duty-bound to encounter this kind of crisis, which is why I will destroy the Firebird sculpture no matter the cost. Liu Yuanteng looked at me indifferently, not feeling embarrassed at all because he chose to retreat in front of the unknown powerful enemy.He made his choice, and I have to make my choice, I took a light breath and said, "I am now a disciple of Huaxin Sect, and my responsibility is to protect the Cauldron God." Liu Yuanteng didn't seem to be surprised by my choice. He looked at me with a sneer and said, "Your current condition is not suitable for fighting at all. If I didn't protect you, you would have died long ago." I squeezed out a smile and said, "I have no intention of dying." I took out from my bosom the Golden Elixir to replenish vitality, the incomplete "Five Elements Poison Wine" refined by Master Bei, and the gift from Master Feng Some medicinal pollen.I took the pollen and golden pill first, and then drank a few gulps of medicinal wine, and my stomach immediately turned upside down. The medicinal properties of the three medicines were not so mild in the first place, and they were even more overbearing when they were mixed together. After just a few breaths, the medicinal power began to collide in the internal organs.Although this method is very painful, the effect is also very significant. Soon the raging heat was forcibly restrained by my consciousness, and it circulated round and round in the meridians. The sluggish Huaxin is also trying hard to absorb the medicinal power released by the golden elixir, spirits, and pollen.Although the Huaxin Sect is not as good as the Danxin Sect, its characteristic is that it recovers faster. Coupled with Xiaohu's precise control, it didn't take long for every cell in my body to rejuvenate. When I recovered and stood up as usual, Liu Yuanteng looked at me in disbelief and said, "How did you do it? Could it be that your principal or immortal teacher Li Sheng taught you some special exercises that can quickly Restore physical strength and dark energy? Your recovery speed is really amazing." I said: "This is the method of the Huaxin sect. It has miraculous effects on gathering energy and restoring physical energy. It is much faster than other methods. But this method is not suitable for you. If you want to practice this method, you must Abolish your current cultivation base and start over." Liu Yuanteng said: "It's no wonder your cultivation base has regressed so much. It must be because of practicing this skill that it abolished the skills I practiced in the beast school before. I don't want to learn such skills." I summoned Falcon to merge again, jumped into the air, flapping my wings vigorously, I looked down at him and said, "Are you interested in going to see what happened together?" Liu Yuanteng said: "It's such a dangerous and useless thing. I'm not from Taohuayuan, so I don't need to help them. It's too dangerous here, and not one person can turn the tide. I'm not a fool, and I don't want to be a fool. My first task to get out of here." I thought for a while and said: "According to what the high priest said, this is the world of the Tripod God, and the connection points between here and the outside world are the twenty-four divine gates, that is, the twenty-four towers. They will be automatically teleported back to their own world in seven days, but up to now, all the people have been trapped here, which is very likely because the twenty-four stone towers have been destroyed." "Let's not talk about whether the people who destroy the stone towers will have any bad intentions for the people who enter here. If the twenty-four stone towers are completely destroyed, we may be trapped here for a long time or even a lifetime. If you want to Go back, I think you should go and see it with me, as if you are fighting for your own freedom." Liu Yuanteng's expression changed drastically, he nodded and said, "Okay." "In this case, let's act quickly." I turned around and flew out. Liu Yuanteng ran quickly on the ground, chasing after me.If we encounter a strong enemy, the two of us will have a better chance of survival if we are together. I quickly flew towards the nearest stone tower.The light of the stone tower itself has been replaced by a red light.The wings fluttered behind my back, the speed of my flight continued to soar, and the howling hot wind hit my face, and the ubiquitous heat wave made my body sweat continuously. While we were sprinting, the light of two more stone towers disappeared.I scanned the twenty-four stone towers from a distance, and so far only six stone towers still maintain their own light, but the red light is attached to the surroundings of the six stone towers, and the light of the stone towers itself is also on and off. The situation is becoming more urgent. When we hurried to the stone tower closest to us, we found that there had been a fierce battle here.There were still three firebirds staying on the stone pagoda, and when they saw us approaching, their eyes flickered fiercely and flew towards us quickly. In terms of body size, I am much bigger than them, so I sped up and rushed towards them, my wings whipped out a strong wind, and immediately disrupted the triangular formation of the three firebirds, the three firebirds were in a mess, struggling , roaring angrily, trying to stabilize in the air. I took this opportunity to hide and kill the past, the dark energy lightsaber flashed several times, and the sword light blocked the retreating direction of a firebird, forcing it to fall to the ground.Liu Yuanteng and I jumped up high in the same heart, and the black iron whip wrapped around him like a poisonous snake.The Firebird wailed and was entangled tightly by the black iron whip. Although it desperately tried to break free from the black iron whip, it was still strangled into a flame by the black iron whip infused with huge dark energy by Liu Yuanteng. I also took this opportunity to force the other Firebird down, and at the same time hacked and killed the last remaining Firebird.Liu Yuanteng's black iron whip flew through the air strangely like lightning, and the fire bird, who was unable to dodge after landing, was pierced through the body by the black iron whip and turned into a cloud of flames. I fell down and walked towards the stone tower.This stone pagoda is the dog gate among the main gates of the Chinese zodiac. Many dog-shaped patterns are carved on the outside of the stone pagoda.There were three people lying on the ground at the entrance, their clothes and faces were burned by the raging fire, and it was impossible to tell whether they were from the Peach Blossom Spring or outside the Peach Blossom Spring. These people were obviously killed by the firebirds.I walked into the tower, and there were several people dead in the main hall on the first floor, and the surrounding area was severely damaged. It seems that the invasion of the firebirds went through a fierce resistance. The dog-shaped sculpture that should have stood in the center of the main hall has now been replaced by a giant sculpture of a firebird.When I stayed in front of the sculpture, Liu Endo had already gone to the upper floors of the stone tower.After a while, Liu Yuanteng returned to me expressionlessly and said, "Everyone here is dead." I turned to leave the stone tower, the wings left a phantom behind me, and the "wings" on my right arm were being assembled.When we were 100 meters away from the stone tower, the "Zhanyi" was also assembled.I stood still, turned around and looked at the stone tower, a dazzling green light trailed a meteor-like tail, and shot out chasing the wind and moon. In an instant, there was a loud noise like a sky crashing and an earth shattering, and the billowing heat wave swept in, and the breathing was suddenly suffocated.In the distance, the flames were raging, and the red light flickered. For a while, countless dancing fire snakes jumped out of the windows of the stone pagoda, and the whole stone pagoda was entangled in the flames. I saw Liu Yuanteng staring at my right hand in shock, I must have been intimidated by the power of "Zhan Yi".I never thought that "Zhanyi" would be so powerful, but the blow just now also consumed a lot of my dark energy. In this way, Liu Yuanteng and I walked through five nearby stone towers in one breath, and the firebird sculptures of each stone tower were destroyed by me in the same way. When we rushed to the sixth stone tower, the enemy finally appeared. A shout came from the air: "Who dares to destroy the Firebird Holy Tower?" Liu Yuanteng and I looked up and saw a strange person riding on a giant firebird flying towards us. The firebird flew very fast and flew over us in just a few strokes.The man on Huo Niao was short and thin, but his eyes gleamed fiercely, showing that he was not low in cultivation, and under his control, the fierce Huo Niao lowered his eyebrows and seemed to be willing to be used by him. Liu Yuanteng's expression changed and he said, "Beastmaster?" "What?" I frowned.It can change Liu Yuanteng's expression. It seems that this person is not an ordinary person. I can't help but wonder what the origin of the beast master is. The middle-aged man on the Firebird shouted at us angrily: "You two juniors, did you destroy the Firebird Holy Tower?" Liu Yuanteng whispered to me: "Only a beast master can calmly control such a fierce beast. This person is probably the beast master. If you want to get him off the fire bird, you must use all your strength. The beast master is an ancient Occupation, is famous for its excellent ability to subdue all kinds of beasts. According to legend, after ten to twenty years of hard practice, they will master the ability to control all kinds of beasts, and can enslave the ferocious beasts they see at will, but they also because of The cruel character makes the world fear. Thousands of years ago, they faded out of people's sight because of being besieged. Until today, there are very few rumors of beast masters. I didn't expect that I would see beast masters with my own eyes today. , this trip is worthwhile." Liu Yuandeng's short summary gave me a rough idea of ​​the origin and destruction of the Beast Master. After only a short wait, the people on Firebird's back became impatient, and immediately proved to me Liu Yuandeng's cruel evaluation of the beast master. Two fireballs hit me and Liu Yuandeng's heads like thunder one after the other. We jumped away in a hurry. Although we flashed more than ten meters in an instant, we were still affected by the aftermath of the fireball, and the fiery energy rushed over like a wave. I continued to float forward seven or eight meters along the heat like a feather before stopping . With the sound of "clang", Liu Yuanteng had already fought with the beast master. The short and thin middle-aged man was holding a pair of hatchets and driving the Firebird to fight fiercely with Liu Yuandeng. His moves were fierce and quick, and he often greeted Liu Yuandeng's chest, neck, face and other vital parts. Gives a heavy weird feeling. Although Liu Yuanteng has the advantage of long weapons, he can't take advantage of it at all in the battle.The movement of the firebird under the beastman's seat is extremely fast, which fully makes up for the lack of short weapons, and under his control, the firebird is much more difficult to deal with than the few giant firebirds we encountered before. Liu Yuanteng coped with the opponent's attack calmly, but his weird and mysterious black iron whip moves felt powerless in front of the opponent. The opponent seemed to be very familiar with his moves and could always defuse Liu Yuanteng's ferocity at the right time. moves. From the time we avoided the fireball to the time I rushed to the place where the two fought, the two had fought more than a dozen moves. Liu Yuandeng was completely suppressed by the opponent and had no strength left to fight back. This also made me fully feel the strength of the beast master. I gradually approached the beast master, holding a dark energy lightsaber in my left hand, and secretly assembling the "wings" in my right hand.According to Liu Yuanteng's words, the beast masters can only exert their powerful power when they are with the beasts they control. As long as I smash the fire bird under him, he will fall into peace.When the time comes, grab him and ask him what is going on here, who instigated it, and where did these firebirds come from. Under my deliberate actions, the lightsaber in my left hand bloomed brilliantly, attracting his attention. Cooperating with the fire bird below him, the ferocious beast master forced Liu Yuandeng away with four axes in a row, and the fire bird immediately spit out two fireballs and threw them at Liu Yuandeng who was staggering back. Immediately afterwards, the beast master turned his fierce eyes and saw me, and with a scream of "quack" like a firebird, he turned around and rushed towards me under the control of the firebird.I kept calculating the distance between us in my mind, and the dark energy lightsaber was also constantly adjusting its angle, preparing to strike along the flight path of the firebird. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he was surprised that I could predict his position at the next moment so accurately, and he fell into a strange situation of being restrained. He snarled and struck me with an axe. Just when I wondered how his short ax could attack me from such a long distance, Xiaohu told me that it found a gap between the two axes held by the beast master. There is a thin invisible white line connected. The ax came fiercely and swiftly, a huge force shattered my dark energy lightsaber and continued to hit my face, the ax flashed with blue light.I rolled out in embarrassment, narrowly avoiding his sudden blow. With a sinister smile, he retracted his axe, steered the Firebird to turn an angle and continued to chase me. In the contact just now, I finally discovered why I feel his short ax feels heavy.His ax weighs at least two hundred catties, so it must be made of special metal, otherwise my dark energy lightsaber wouldn't collapse immediately when hit by his axe. His ax has a thin wire attached to it, which I didn't expect, but I was prepared otherwise.As my body rolled out, I finally got the best chance when he turned the Firebird. The green energy arrow pierced through the void, and the firebird under him let out a wailing sound amidst the screaming sound of "Wuuuu".He looked at me with an unbelievable expression, but the fire bird under him had already turned into a big ball of flames.He jumped off the Firebird in embarrassment. The flames do not recognize people. If he did not jump off in time, he would still be burned by the flames. The beast master showed a ferocious expression, soared into the air and rushed towards me.
