120: Heavily injured, fleeing, sudden change

Xi Yanjin, who was fighting the twelve mercenaries with superpowers, seemed to have been attracted by the gradually growing light. He turned his head to look and saw Xia Junhuang hovering in the air, not moving at all With a cold and calm expression, he looked at the wind blades that turned into blades and slashed at him at a high speed. The strange silver light around his body became more and more dazzling.

His deep and cold pupils suddenly shrank. Without any time to think, Xi Yanjin instinctively waved out a beam of demonic flame and collided with the wind blade in the air. Instantly, there was a loud explosion and sparks flew in all directions.

Although he had blocked the wind blade, it was an attack from a peak level-three Esper after all. Even though he was also at the peak level-three and was a level-five ancient martial artist, he was still slightly affected when he faced it head-on.

Moreover, because he had suddenly diverted his attention and helped Xia Junhuang to block the attack, he had completely exposed himself. By the time he had blocked the wind blade, it was already too late for him to block the attacks from all directions. He could only use his internal energy to dodge at an extremely fast speed He had dodged the attacks from the others, but he had never been able to dodge Mo Rong's attacks.

That was because he was the one with the highest power level among all of them, an early-stage level-four wind-powered man!

The Wind Blade sliced through Xi Yanjin's chest. When he stabilized his steps, a mouthful of blood oozed out from his lips, which were as straight as knives.

The skin and flesh on his left chest to his right ribs had burst open. A deep and horrifying wound had opened up, covered with blood.

Xia Junhuang, who was in midair, naturally saw all of this. He had saved her and exposed himself in front of the enemy, but he hadn't been able to dodge in time and was seriously injured by an early-stage level-four wind-powered man Her heart was filled with a faint sense of complexity.

She had never thought that Xi Yanjin would save her. Not to mention the fact that they didn't have any friendship, she had turned around without hesitation and left him alone in a dangerous situation. He shouldn't have saved her.

Moreover, there were level-three and level-four superpowered men all around him. She had seen clearly that among the twelve people who were attacking him, there were two mid-stage level-three superpowered men, nine peak-level-three superpowered men, and one early-stage level-four superpowered man With such a great disparity in strength, he actually saved her. He was simply courting death... ...

Yao She, who was still half-alive, saw that Xia Junhuang was still alive, and long yuan actually risked his life to save her. Her eyes became even more twisted and jealous. The reason why she had attacked her spirit earlier was out of jealousy.. She was jealous of her face, jealous of the treasures in her hands, jealous of her extraordinary ability. That was why she had a murderous intent, wanting to control her spirit and make her commit suicide.

However, she didn't expect that her mind power would be useless against her. Not only was it useless, but it was also heavily injured by her. Thinking of this, the demonic snake's expression became more and more twisted and sinister. It tried its best to raise its mind, ignoring the increasingly torn wound A stream of water transformed into a blade and attacked towards Xia Junhuang's back in the air.

Xia Junhuang immediately felt the stream of air that was filled with killing intent coming from her back. All the spiritual power in her body suddenly exploded, and she shouted coldly, "break! "

The originally somewhat loose shackles suddenly shattered. Xia Junhuang turned in the air and dodged the attack. At the same time that the silver needles flew out, the Crimson Sky Sword slashed towards the group of people who had forced Xi Yanjin to retreat step by step The powerful and Cold Sword Qi forced the group of people to retreat. The mountain ground immediately cracked, revealing a one-foot-wide crack. It was terrifying.

Xia Junhuang took advantage of the time when everyone was dodging to land where Xi Yanjin was. She pulled him up and said, "let's go! "

Then, she leaped and jumped out of the open space. By the time everyone realized that they had already escaped, the two of them had already landed fifty meters away. They quickly fled into the belly of the mountain. The exit of the forest outside the mountain forest was occupied by them Therefore, she and Xi Yanjin could only escape into the depths of the mountain forest.

The deeper they went, the denser the forest became. The foundation of the Hushan villa was originally a desolate and undeveloped mountain forest. Later, it was developed by a real estate developer to build a villa because the area of this mountain forest was too vast The developer did not fully develop this stretch of mountain forest. Therefore, compared to an ordinary forest, the deeper they went, the more unpredictable the danger was.

Xia Junhuang pulled Xi Yanjin and escaped for some distance. When she felt that the surrounding forest was denser and the ground was getting more humid, she saw that no one was chasing after them, so she did not continue walking forward She let go of his hand and held onto the thick tree trunk next to her and spat out a mouthful of blood.

When Xi Yanjin saw this, he realized that her face was abnormally Pale and without any color. Her forehead was even faintly covered with sparkling beads of sweat. There seemed to be a flash of anxiety in her eyes, but her expression was still cold and grim The tone in which she asked was also cold and gloomy.

"Are you okay? "

Xia Junhuang did not immediately answer Xi Yanjin's words because at this moment, she felt an incomparable pain all over her body. It was as if her bones were about to crack and her blood vessels were about to explode.

She hurriedly took out a vitality-strengthening pill from the void realm and took one. In an instant, the refreshing feeling washed away the sharp and dull pain caused by the bone-crushing swelling, and the suffocating pain slowly lessened bit by bit.

With her current skills, she would be severely injured if she were to fight against a level-four superpowered person. In fact, she might even be more seriously injured than the other party. Just now, she had forcibly broken out of the confinement, and her internal organs, which had already been shaken by the fight with Xi Yanjin, were now under the powerful impact She was severely injured.

If she hadn't been tempered by marrow-cleansing pills and consumed many pills left behind by di Mo in the pharmacy to nourish her Qi and blood and consolidate her origin, her body would have been a hundred times stronger than that of an ordinary person. Perhaps, she wouldn't have had the strength to escape with Xi Yanjin Her internal organs would have been torn apart long ago. Even if she didn't die, she would have become a dead soul in the hands of those people.

When she had almost recovered, Xia Junhuang checked her internal organs through her internal vision and found that, miraculously, her internal organs were no longer bleeding. The serious injuries that she had suffered were gradually healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. She was extremely shocked.

This vitality-stabilizing pill was different from the one that Zhang Yu had taken back then. Although both had the same name, their effects were thousands of miles apart. The vitality-stabilizing pill that Zhang Yu had taken was refined by herself. It was just a low-grade pill.. And the pill that she was taking now was left behind by Di Mo. . A true super-first-grade pill could only be refined by someone who had reached the mastery level.

Pills were divided into four levels: low-grade pills, middle-grade pills, first-grade pills, and super-first-grade pills.

Low-grade pills could be refined by anyone who was a self-cultivator and had some talent. middle-grade pills could only be refined by someone who had cultivated to the foundation establishment stage. As for first-grade pills, they could be considered the best pills among pills Only those who had reached the golden core stage could refine them.

Why was first-grade pills the best pills? Because super-first-grade pills were almost rare for self-cultivators. After all, only one in ten million people could reach the great success stage.

Back then, she was able to refine the marrow-cleansing pill before she cultivated because the marrow-cleansing pill didn't have any level. The body's ability to withstand it was limited, so the marrow-cleansing pill was only of low-grade. Moreover, because of Di Mo's handwritten letter, the knowledge of the predecessors was definitely the essence That was why she was able to refine the marrow cleansing pill and let Lin teach her cultivation.

When her body was almost fully recovered, Xia Junhuang raised her eyes to look at Xi Yanjin, who had been leaning on the side and observing her condition. Her gaze swept past the ferocious wound that was still bleeding incessantly on his chest, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes She casually threw over a vitality fortifying pill that di Mo had left behind, and there was only a super first-grade vitality fortifying pill left in the void world.

Xi Yanjin caught it steadily. He took a glance at the black round pill that was the size of a glass bead. A cool aura spread from the pill to his fingers, and then spread all the way, causing Xi Yanjin to suddenly wake up. He was invaded by this aura The intense dull pain seemed to have eased up a lot.

This magical feeling made the surprise in Xi Yanjin's eyes disappear. When Xia Junhuang saw that he was holding the pill and pondering about something, she reminded him, "eat it. "

Xi Yanjin came back to his senses and did not ask. He did not even hesitate to swallow the pill directly. The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth. Immediately after, a refreshing and refreshing feeling spread rapidly and smoothed out the dull pain in his heart There was also a sharp pain in his chest. Even the blood that kept oozing out from the hideous wound was strangely and miraculously stopped... ...

Xia Junhuang had been paying attention to Xi Yanjin's condition. After seeing that the blood on his wound had stopped, she heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this vitality consolidating pill was not only helpful to internal injuries, but also very effective to external injuries. Although the wound had not completely healed.. But the bleeding had stopped and there were faint signs of scarring.

Regarding such a strange situation, Xi Yanjin's heart was extremely shaken. However, his face was still cold and indifferent. There were no overly obvious emotions. Only that pair of deep and Sharp Brown eyes looked up at Xia Junhuang, as if something was surging within them.. Just as he was about to break out of the ground, he was filled with a sharp killing intent in the next second.

Xia Junhuang's expression was similarly cold as she clearly saw the group of people who were chasing her through the dense forest.

Originally there were eighteen people, but now there were only seventeen. Because that woman was shot in the face by the silver needles she shot out, she was killed in one hit. As for Ling Qi who was following behind her, his face was slightly Pale. Presumably, it was because she had broken free from his imprisonment It caused him to suffer a slight internal injury from the backlash of his own power.

Retracting her gaze, Xia Junhuang stood up straight and said, "there's still 20 meters left. Are you familiar with this place? "

Looking at the dense and cool mountain forest in front of her, all she could see were dense towering trees and moist soil. It was somewhat like a deep mountain forest because of her advancement Her visual range also increased from 50 meters to 500 meters.

This mountain forest was unusually long and deep. At least within a radius of 500 meters, all she could touch were dense mountain forests. There was no way out. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she did not want to enter this unknown domain.

Xi Yanjin shook his head and said, "Hushan villa used to be an undeveloped stretch of mountain forest. Because it was too vast, it was not fully exploited. However, I heard that there was a problem when it was being exploited back then. Initially, the developer intended to continue developing, but he did not want to continue mining. However, he discovered that at night, the heaven and earth fog barrier was dense and could not accommodate people, so he stopped developing and built Hushan villa in front. And the place where we are now has already entered the fog barrier area. "

It was rare for Xi Yanjin to say so many words at once. It was obvious that he was a little afraid of the place.

Xia Junhuang retracted her line of sight from exploring the forest. She looked in the direction of the sound and said, "they're here. Since we can't beat them, let's take the risk and give it a try. " After saying that, she turned around and walked away.

When Xi Yanjin saw this, he looked at her back view. His deep and complicated eyes immediately followed. Mo Rong and the others also caught up. All of their attacks followed closely behind.

Xia Junhuang and Xi Yanjin dodged and returned the attacks while they ran inside. The thunderous explosion blew a big hole in the wet mountain when the two of them dodged. Xia Junhuang waved her sword and slashed open The silver light accompanied by the cold and overbearing sword Qi made Mo Rong, Ling Qi, and the others dodge. At the same time, they landed on the wet ground. Instantly, everyone felt a jolt under their feet and heard the sound of something collapsing.

Xia Junhuang and Xi Yanjin's expressions changed. It was too late for them to escape. The ground where they were standing collapsed. It turned out that the ground had been cracked open by the fight Xia Junhuang's sword completely cracked the only part that was still connected, causing the soil to collapse.

The people who fell did not see that after they all fell, the collapsed ground underwent a strange change... ...

The place where the huge hole should have appeared after the collapse was like an inverted triangle hourglass. The huge hole at the beginning continued to collapse and collapse, causing the surrounding soil and trees to sink Following that, the huge hole slowly closed bit by bit, until the huge hole shrank and disappeared.

If it was not for the soil within a radius of a hundred miles being moist and fresh, without a single thick towering tree, as if it had been refurbished, it would really make people think that the huge change just now was just an accident.

Xia Junhuang only felt that she was constantly falling, and her surroundings were boundless darkness and emptiness. If it wasn't for her night vision, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to see anything in this pitch-black space.

Beside her was Xi Yanjin. The moment the ground collapsed, he had grabbed her hand at the first moment, so the two of them didn't separate because of the sudden accident.

He was pulling her to hide from the falling soil and trees and other objects, and the Group of people chasing after them were also scattered in all directions, hiding from the falling objects around them.

Xia Junhuang did not know how long she had been falling for. All the way down, her head was already pitch-black, as if there were no stars in the night sky. She could not see the bottom as far as the eye could see. The surrounding environment under the pitch-black scene was like a dark and gloomy bottomless pit The surrounding stone cliffs and Mountain walls were dark and damp.

Upon closer inspection, the dark and damp mountain walls actually had a narrow stone staircase-like shape. Due to the rapid fall, she did not have time to see too clearly. She only felt that the smooth stone steps on the mountain walls seemed to lead to a certain path.

Furthermore, there was not only one stone staircase along the way, but many. Within the circular mountain, there were a total of nine such winding and hidden stone stairs. They were scattered around the mountain walls, and the gaps between them were almost exactly the same. It was as if they had calculated it well. There were nine steps.. They just happened to encircle the mountain body.

As she continued to fall, Xia Junhuang smelled a faintly fishy smell. It carried the smell of damp decay and blood. This smell made Xia Junhuang have a bad premonition. She hurriedly lowered her head to look.

As expected, in the depths of the dark night, in the shaded area at the bottom, a bunch of squirming things intertwined with each other. Black, red, green, and many other colors. If one did not look closely, one would not be able to distinguish them One would only feel that the huge black squirming thing was black lake water. However, they did not know that it was the call of death from Hell.

Xia Junhuang's face immediately sank. No wonder she felt that this place was too damp and strange from the start. She did not expect this place to be a huge snake cave!

Its bottom layer was filled with poisonous snakes, big and small. There were all kinds of poisonous snakes, and there were even some that she had never seen before. They were densely packed and entrenched at the bottom of the huge mountain... ...

Xi Yanjin was very close to Xia Junhuang, so he had discovered it when her aura had changed. He opened his mouth and asked, "what's wrong? "

Xia Junhuang did not hide anything and directly said, "below is the snake cave. "

When Xi Yanjin heard this, his heart also sank. He did not know how Xia Junhuang knew. Even if it was him, he could not see everything clearly in this place. The visual range was not more than five meters, but he believed her words.

Although Xia Junhuang's voice was not loud, it was enough for Mo Rong and Ling Qi, who were close to them, to hear it. Their faces immediately changed. They reminded their companions around them, "the snake cave is down there. Everyone, think of a way to grab the MOUNTAIN WALL! "

Following Mo Rong's reminder, everyone was shocked. The mountain was too wide. Those who fell in the middle could not see where the mountain wall was at all. Those who had the fire supernatural ability hurriedly shot out a flame toward the distance.

However, when they saw the mountain wall that was more than ten meters away, their faces suddenly changed. With their skills, they could not reach the mountain wall without a support point.

Mo Rong and Ling Qi also clearly saw the distance between the mountain wall. Without a support point, they would not be able to cross. Not only them, even people like Xi Yanjin who possessed ancient martial arts would not be able to reach the mountain wall.

Xi Yanjin was also frowning as he thought about how to cross. However, he did not expect Xia Junhuang to move at this moment.

She waved her hand at the person closest to her. A silver light flashed. That person seemed to be under invisible control as he strangely flew towards her position.

Without hesitation, Xia Junhuang stepped on that person's back, borrowing the force to fly up into the air. Xi Yanjin, who was pulling her, was also pulled up by the force of her leap, and then leaped up together with her.

With the point of borrowing the force, Xia Junhuang and Xi Yanjin flew up into the air and landed on one of the stone steps in the middle of the mountain wall. Her smooth leap movement shocked the people who were closer to her Even superpowered people like them didn't have such a good jumping ability. No, it should be said that it was no longer an ordinary leap, but a rapid leap!

Seeing this, Mo Rong and Ling Qi furrowed their brows slightly. With the help of the falling fireballs, they were able to clearly see the scene below them. The densely packed poisonous snakes coiled around each other, causing their scalps to turn numb and cold.

Without any hesitation, they all made their moves towards their companions around them. Imitating Xia Junhuang's actions, they treated their companions around them as stepping stones and used the force to land on the stone steps on the mountain wall. However, Xia Junhuang only used one stepping stone On the other hand, they used three or four.

There were nine stone steps, and each step was fifty meters away. Mo Rong and the others could not see Xia Junhuang and Xi Yanjin, but Xia Junhuang could see them clearly.

Out of the seventeen people that they had landed on, only eight landed on the stone steps on the mountain wall. The rest of them became stepping stones for their companions and food in the snake cave at the bottom of the mountain.

Mo Rong, Ling Qi, and the other two people were on the stone steps beside them. There were four other people on the next stone step. After seeing them clearly, Xia Junhuang withdrew her gaze.

These people were not on the same path as them, so she didn't need to pay attention to them for the time being. The most important thing now was to find a way out.

Xia Junhuang carefully looked at the surrounding environment. The damp stone steps were covered with Moss. Each step was very wide, but the length was very short. It was only enough for one person to stand, so she and Xi Yanjin didn't stand together He stood on the upper step, so the hand that had been holding tightly earlier also separated.

Xi Yanjin clenched his fist. The warm temperature on his right palm was still lingering in his palm and hadn't completely disappeared. It invaded his palm and flowed all the way. Slowly, bit by bit, it seeped into his blood, leaving a shallow mark in the bottom of his heart But it was hard to ignore.

Xi Yanjin's deep eyes flickered slightly. Then, he tightened his mind and looked at his surroundings. The stone steps they were standing on were climbing up the mountain wall. He could not see the situation ahead clearly, but he did not dare to use his special ability for fear of causing a collapse.. He could only turn his head to look at Xia Junhuang and ask in a deep voice, "are we going or not? "

Xia Junhuang looked at the stone steps that were winding up the Mountain Wall in front of Xi Yanjin. Looking all the way, the stone steps were very long. At the end of it was a pitch-black entrance. Although she could not see what was going on inside clearly.. But now they had no other way to go.

"Let's go. "

Xia Junhuang said. This place was very strange, but this was the only way out. No matter what was waiting for them at the entrance above, they could only continue forward.

Hearing this, Xi Yanjin turned around and stepped up the stone steps to open a path in front. Xia Junhuang followed closely behind and casually glanced at the position of the Group of people.

Seeing their actions of going up the steps, her gaze was slightly cold as she looked at the two entrances above the stone steps where they were. The same stone steps, the same cave entrance. She wondered if what was waiting for everyone inside was also the same... ...

Suddenly, Xia Junhuang stopped in her tracks. She looked down at the snake cave and saw a pair of cold and bloody vertical pupils!

That pair of vertical pupils was staring at them without blinking. That powerful pressure made all the pores on Xia Junhuang's body open and her expression changed abruptly.

"What happened? " Xi Yanjin tilted his body slightly to block in front of her. He looked around vigilantly and asked. The Moment Xia Junhuang stopped, he also felt an intense sense of danger and a terrifying pressure However, there was nothing that he could see.

"Let's go! " Xia Junhuang said anxiously.

Xi Yanjin heard what she said and thought that something had happened. Otherwise, Xia Junhuang's voice wouldn't have changed so suddenly. He turned around and quickly walked up. Xia Junhuang followed closely behind him. The two of them quickly ran up until they reached the entrance of the cave. Then, they stopped and took a break to catch their breath.

"What happened just now? " Xi Yanjin adjusted his rapid breathing and looked at Xia Junhuang as he asked. It was the first time he saw Xia Junhuang being so cautious. Even when she was facing the group of special ability mercenaries, she was still indifferent to them.

Xia Junhuang thought of the huge, cold vertical pupils that looked like copper bells that she saw just now. She frowned and said with a complicated expression, "it's the snake cave. I saw a pair of scarlet vertical pupils inside, like copper bells. "
