Killing God

Chapter 220 The Siege

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, who had just entered the cave and were not far from the cave entrance, stepped into a dark place, their bodies shook almost instantly at the same time, and they stopped immediately on the spot. ±, and a few feet away in front of them, the little black pig's head was staring at the darkness deep in the cave, his whole body was slightly lowered, and his eyes were piercingly staring at that side. It looked like he was about to rush forward to fight a battle at a second moment.

Although they were mentally prepared for all kinds of dangers they might encounter when entering this cave, including all kinds of tyrannical monster enemies, they were still surprised when they encountered a warning just after entering the cave, and seeing Xiao Hei's appearance, The expression on his face is completely different from that of the low-level monsters he encountered along the way these days. It already has a sense of caution and vigilance. Obviously, with its unusually keen sense, he perceives that the enemy ahead is a very powerful one. opponent.

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu looked at each other, their hearts were covered with a layer of haze, but since they had already made up their minds, there was no reason why they would retreat in fright after hearing a beast roar at the entrance of this cave.Shen Shi took a deep breath, raised his right hand slightly, and there was already an extra talisman between his fingers, and Zhong Qingzhu also drew out the spirit sword silently, looking at the darkness ahead with a pale face and a stern expression.

The darkness in the depths of the cave is unfathomable, like an unfathomable pool of water, even the edge is unknown.There seemed to be no light to be seen there, and it was unknown if there were cold eyes hidden in the depths of the darkness, watching them coldly.

Inside and outside the cave, on both sides of the darkness, the air seems to have become a little frozen, making people feel a sense of tension that is hard to breathe.

After a while like this, Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head and sniffed the air a few times, his expression seemed a bit surprised and puzzled, but then his whole body seemed to relax, then he turned his head, but he groaned at Shen Shi several times.

Shen Shi was startled, knelt down and touched Xiao Hei's head, then glanced at the darkness deep in the cave, and said to Zhong Qingzhu: "Xiao Hei said, the monster over there has retreated."

"Backed away?" Zhong Qingzhu said in astonishment.

Shen Shi also had a puzzled look on his face, looked at the depths of the cave, frowned and said: "It should be, it's strange, most of the monsters in this situation will take the initiative to attack, and from Xiao Hei's reaction just now Look, that monster is probably a high-level monster, there is no reason to retreat."

Zhong Qingzhu slowly put away the spirit sword, with a look of thought in his eyes, walked to Shen Shi's side and thought for a while, "Does Xiao Hei know what kind of high-level monster it is?"

Shen Shi glanced at Xiao Hei, shook his head, and said, "I probably can't tell the difference." After a pause, he muttered, "It's rare for monsters to give in when they meet people, maybe low-level and weak monsters will meet again." To some, but it is very rare for high-level monsters, unless it feels that its strength is too much inferior to the two of us and shrinks back..."

Having said this, both Shen Shi himself and Zhong Qingzhu shook their heads. Obviously, this possibility is too small, and then Zhong Qingzhu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at Shen Shi, and Shen Shi seemed to think of something at this time. He turned his head towards her, his eyes were bright and bright, and he said softly:

"Or... there is something in that hole that makes this monster feel more important than eating us!"

What can actually overwhelm the ferocious and bloodthirsty instincts of monsters and make them give up the flesh and blood food that may be delicious?The answer seemed self-evident in the eyes of Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, but after a while, there was more eagerness in their eyes.

Zhong Qingzhu didn't say anything more, but said simply but firmly: "Let's go."

Shen Shi nodded, turned around, and continued to walk deep into the cave.

The journey this time seemed to be much smoother than when they first entered the cave. Along the not too wide but not too narrow cave passage, the two of them walked all the way without encountering any monsters blocking the way. .As for the unknown monster encountered by a layer of darkness near the entrance of the cave, it seemed that it was also going all the way to the depths of the cave at a fast pace, without any intention of turning back to pay attention to the two of them.

This cave doesn't look like it goes deep into the ground. Although the road in the cave is full of potholes and rocks, it is generally flat, and it seems to go deep into the mountainside.And as they went deeper, they gradually discovered that the cave was not completely dark. Occasionally, some shimmering stones could be seen embedded on the cave wall, and there was also light shining through the gaps in a certain stone from time to time. As well as the inadvertent breeze, it shows that the cave is not completely closed.

The eyesight of a cultivator is much better than that of ordinary people. In addition to these little glimmers of light, although they are a little weak, they are still enough for Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu to see the road in the cave clearly. It was better, walking freely and easily, as if this dark difficulty was nothing to it.

After walking like this for about half an hour, when Shen Shi was secretly amazed that the cave was deeper than he imagined, suddenly there was another strange screaming sound from the distance in front of the cave.

The voice sounded like a child's cry at first glance, but it was sharp and shrill, and it had a shocking feeling that made people's eyes go black. Both Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were taken aback, and subconsciously stopped in their tracks.

The scream seemed to contain great anger and ferocity, echoing in this dark cave, echoing in the long corridor, Zhong Qingzhu listened for a moment, then turned his head, and moved slightly closer to Shen Shi, softly said:

"It's the Iron Winged Black Scorpion."

Shen Shi nodded silently, took two steps forward, and suddenly turned back to Zhong Qingzhu and said in a low voice: "If you are close to the place where the monster is, don't rush to do it, first look at the nearby terrain, if possible, Set up an empty phantom array first to see the situation."

Zhong Qingzhu nodded and said, "Yes, I see."

The two didn't say anything more, and continued to walk forward in the darkness, groping carefully. The darkness and the faint light in front of them always seemed to be alternating and flashing, giving people the illusion of walking on the edge of yin and yang. .Perhaps only Xiao Hei was never moved by it, and walked in front of them calmly.

Until there was a faint fragrance in the air.

A strange light flashed from the front.

Zhong Qingzhu's voice said softly: "Stone, here we are."

As if the corridor that had never changed much along the way suddenly came to an end, Shen Shi narrowed his eyes slightly, and a huge cave suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, which was at least a hundred feet in size. On the very high point of the stone wall above the central head, there is a hole about four or five feet wide.

The bright skylight shone down from the high hole, turning into a thick beam of light, as if falling from the sky, illuminating a place below the cave. In the brightest circular light, a three-foot-high tree grew. Other than green leaves, purple petals, and red fruit spirit grass, there are no other plants in the huge cave.

All the brilliance, all the bright aura, all the light in this cave seemed to gather on this spiritual grass, and the green leaves swayed slightly when the wind blew.

Tianyun Zhuguo.

Shen Shi almost recognized the spiritual herb when he saw it for the first time. This kind of rare and rare elixir with a rank of six or more is almost the dream of every cultivator.Even with his cautious and calm temperament, he couldn't help his blood boiling when he saw the vermilion fruit of Tianyun.

Fortunately, fortunately, this peerless elixir seems to be fine.

But the next moment, when Shen Shi's eyes left the vermilion fruit that day, when he saw the situation next to the vermilion fruit, his expression changed drastically.

Under the bright beam of light that fell from the sky, standing next to this vermilion vermilion fruit was a huge demon scorpion, whose height was at least three feet tall, and the iron-brown scorpion armor on its back was full of scars. It can be seen that there is one iron wing with many scars left, and the other one is broken at the root.On the huge and ferocious head, the strange and numerous compound eyes flashed with fierce and cruel light, and the shrill screaming sound was continuously emitted from the mouth, roaring towards the surroundings.

Obviously, this terrifying monster is the Iron Winged Black Scorpion.

In front of it, to be precise, in the open space in front of the Vermilion Fruit of the Sky, there are already six or seven corpses lying in a haphazard manner at this moment, all of which are tyrannical monsters that are rarely seen in ordinary times. But they had already died on the spot. Some had broken hands and feet, some had their stomachs dismembered, and a strong smell of blood was filling the cave.

The beam of light illuminated an area around the vermilion fruit of the sky, giving the spirit grass the brightest light, and then slowly expanded, the surrounding light began to gradually weaken and darken, the closer to the edge of the cave, the more light dim.But at this moment, at the place where light and darkness meet, there seems to be an invisible but terrifying encirclement, which firmly surrounds the beam of light, the spirit grass, and even the iron-winged black scorpion.

In the darkness, shadows flickered and roared, dozens of monsters gathered around the uncertain light and dark, their eyes were all fixed on the iron-winged black scorpion and the sky vermilion fruit.And among them, just judging from the vaguely visible figures and their aura, those surrounding the Iron Winged Black Scorpion and Tianyun Vermilion Fruit in this cave at this moment are all tyrannical monsters above the fourth-order monsters. There is not even one below the first rank.

Shen Shi's heart beat violently uncontrollably, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead and back instantly, and he felt a chill all over his body.Turning her head to look at Zhong Qingzhu, she saw that her beautiful face was also pale.

Any fourth-order monster will definitely condense a monster core after it reaches adulthood, its strength is far superior to ordinary monsters, and it is often the overlord of one side.Take one at random, as long as it is basically in good condition, it will not be able to resist the Yuan Condensation Realm disciples like Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, and the scene in front of you, in this cave, can be seen at first glance. There are at least twenty fourth-order monsters that howled ferociously and roared endlessly.

Not to mention, in the very center of the cave, there is that extremely powerful fifth-order monster iron-winged black scorpion.

On weekdays, with the monster power and perception of the fourth-order monsters, I am afraid that Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu have already been very close, but in the cave at this moment, all the fourth-order monsters seem to have not noticed at all. Arriving here, their spirits all fell on the sky vermilion fruit and the iron-winged black scorpion in the deepest part of the light.

There were roaring sounds one after another, the roaring sound was low but seemed to shake the soul, countless fierce figures in the light and shadow in front of him swayed, and the momentum was as overwhelming as mountains and seas, as if there was only one dead end left.

Zhong Qingzhu's body trembled slightly, her face was as pale as paper, she seemed to have lost her sense of proportion in an instant, but at this moment, suddenly a hand grabbed her from the side, it was Shen Shi.

Zhong Qingzhu seemed to have been stimulated by something, she was startled suddenly, and wanted to exclaim, Shen Shi was startled, quickly covered her mouth with the other hand, then hugged her tightly in her arms and retreated. To the side of the darkest depths.

Her body was icy cold, as if she had returned to the most terrifying dark cave in an instant, and her whole body began to tremble silently, until suddenly from behind her, next to her ear, there was a calm but gentle voice said:

"Don't shout, be careful, I'm here."

Zhong Qingzhu's body trembled suddenly, his eyes were still looking at the terrible scene in front of him, he was slightly absent-minded, but his body began to calm down slowly.

His breath, in this darkness, in his arms, gently embraced her.
