Chapter 1879
"Finally, we're here. After crossing this bridge, the other party will definitely not chase us anymore."
In a team of more than a dozen people, one of the middle-aged men covered in scars and seriously injured said with some joy as he saw that there was no one in front of him and got the bridge.
Even though the scars on his body were still emitting black air, he was exhausted and injected with new strength when he saw that he was about to be safe, because the hope of escape was right in front of him.
"Definitely not. This is the territory of the demon soul. Not far away is the sphere of influence of Ma Nan. They will definitely not come here at this time. Our defeated army is not worth it. Maybe the other party has already gone back. This battle is really unexpected. I heard that many cities are involved."
Beside him, another man with a better look also said happily, but he sighed as he spoke, and he was not in the mood to continue.
"Hey, I wouldn't have come if I had known earlier. Who would have encountered such a bad thing just after arriving here? It seems that the Soul Alliance will be in chaos for a while."
At the entrance, a burly demon also complained.
"Hush, stop talking. Half of the brothers didn't escape. This can't be blamed on the captain. At least when we came, we all agreed." A female demon tribe member next to her gestured to her companion, asking him not to complain.
Compared with the injuries of other people, their own combat power is still good, so they are at the back to guard the rear and deal with the enemies who come in at any time. In addition, other people's minds are not behind them, so only the two of them know that if other companions hear it, they will inevitably stare.
It's already this level, and they still blame the captain.
Because the captain who came with them has endured the most battles and pressure, and is now seriously injured. If it weren't for him, they wouldn't have lost only half.
In the middle, the captain who was carried by several people to barely keep up has an extremely strong body, but he is extremely weak at this time. After seeing the bridge, the tight string in his heart finally fell.
"Ahem, don't be so anxious, the other party will definitely not chase us, you can take a breath."
He is very clear about the conversation of the team members in front and the hearts of the people around him, and there are only them around the bridge, so there is no need to be so anxious.
After hearing the captain's words, the escape team slowed down. When the bridge was only a few feet away, the whole team had stopped.
"Let's rest here and replenish ourselves before moving on."
The captain's voice rang out in the crowd, and everyone picked up the best soul stones and began to recover.
After so many days of fleeing without rest, everyone was not only exhausted, but also over-consumed. If it weren't for this only way out, they would have fought desperately with the enemy halfway. Now without replenishment, they would have no fighting power at all.
"Are you waiting for them? They look so weak!"
At the other end of the bridge, Hua Xin looked at the people resting on the opposite side and couldn't help but speak.
The strongest of that group of people was a peak Golden Immortal, and the others were all in the early and middle stages of the Golden Immortal, and they were all in a state of injury, and they couldn't be weaker.
"No, don't ask them. I'm waiting for a girl around ten years old. That's my goal. Don't make a move when the time comes. I'm going to follow the other party to find someone."
Although Hua Xin couldn't take the initiative, Gu Zheng still gave instructions for safety reasons, and then looked at the other side again.
Because there is a special force around the bridge, there is no black fog in an area, but if the other party doesn't leave, the little demon boy will definitely not come out.
According to the pace, the other party should have come nearby, hiding in the black fog, and the connection in his heart is also looming, and he doesn't know where the other party is hiding.
Now he can only wait patiently for the other party to leave. He can't drive the other party away. If the demon boy sees him, he probably won't go back, and he is likely to take him around.
Fortunately, there was not much time to rest over there. After a simple recovery, they got up and went up the bridge in groups of two and walked towards this side.
Although they have confirmed that there are no enemies chasing them from behind, the sense of urgency in their hearts still makes them move fast. They have arrived in the middle of the bridge in a few breaths. As long as a little time passes, they will completely step into the territory of the demon soul.
In their opinion, everything would be fine.
But at this moment, an accident happened.
In the surging Soul River next to them, a black water column suddenly exploded, and exploded again in the air, forming thousands of raindrops, like a downpour, and under the blessing of some kind of power, it fell rapidly towards the people on the bridge.
The dense raindrops covered most of the bridge. In addition, the incident happened suddenly, and they did not expect that there was something strange under the Soul River, so they had no time to escape from the range of these black waters.
"Everyone, protect yourself!"
The captain summoned his strength and shouted to everyone as soon as he saw the situation in the air, and at the same time, a weak shield covered his body.
Although the others were surprised, the captain's shout made them realize the seriousness of the matter, and they all took up defense and rushed forward.
But they underestimated the water drops from the Soul River. Although there was no other covering power, the Soul River, which made people terrified, had the ability to suppress them in an all-round way, not to mention that everyone was injured.
All the protection simply collapsed at the first touch, and fell on them one after another under their horrified eyes.
"ah!"
For a time, painful wails kept coming out of their mouths, and their bodies seemed to have been hit hard. They lay down limply, completely losing the power to resist.
Gu Zheng could see it clearly here. When the raindrops fell on the other party, they actually merged into the other party's body, and the other party seemed to have lost control. You must know that those raindrops affected most of their bodies. When it does, it will cause the other party to completely lose control of his body.
And at this moment, a demon soul with black water flowing all over its body stood silently in the air.
The upper body looks like a human body, but from the waist down, it becomes a column of black water, rotating as the black water circulates all over the body. The eyes are cold and lifeless, and the corners of the mouth reveal a cruel smile like a hunter, staring down.
The people below also saw the enemy, but at this time they were powerless, unable to resist even a little bit. They allowed the raindrops to corrode their bodies continuously, and holes suddenly appeared on them, leaving everyone with craters. , missing a piece out of thin air.
At this time, they couldn't even scream. Under such heavy trauma, almost everyone's body began to collapse and fell into a semi-conscious state.
At this time, the demon soul above took action. He sucked in suddenly, and a strong suction force came out of his mouth.
Wisps of black mist emerged from everyone below, and with the suction force, more than a dozen black lines were drawn in the air, and they were all swallowed up by him.
As his face showed a satisfied and full look, everyone below had disappeared, and even the water column splashing on the bridge had evaporated.
"It's not that the demon soul can't survive in the soul river. What happened to him?"
Gu Zheng's face was a little surprised. The water demon was not very strong, but after he finished devouring everyone, he fell into the Soul River again, and he had to ask questions.
"Yes, but the other party is a bit special, because the other party was born in the Soul River and is relatively rare in number. More importantly, the other party cannot leave a certain range of the Soul River without the help of our clan. As long as it leaves for a certain period of time, it will take about one stick. It's a good time to die suddenly outside, so you rarely see them outside, and more importantly, the other party can't help people cross the Soul River. "
Hua Xin obviously knew this creature and immediately explained.
"But they also obey the orders of the adults. At a certain time, our clan will provide a certain amount of things to the other party so that the other party can go ashore. Although we don't want to, we can't, but the strange thing is that in so many years, I have never seen They don’t know where they went.”
Gu Zheng didn't pay much attention to what the other party said later. The water demon was still lurking in his perception and then retreated to a place where the bridge could not interfere, continuing to wait for the arrival of prey.
The opponent's behavior seems to be hunting, but in comparison, the enemy's strength is improved quickly by devouring it.
On the way here, he saw a lot of demon souls that were born with weak strength. However, they were just a ball of black mist, which could barely turn into various shapes. Many of them were fighting and devouring each other, and some powerful ones even divided themselves into one party. They occupied a place, but most of them ended up being killed and devoured by bandits, without exception!
"Since they have to rely on your clan, when my target comes out later, you can intimidate the other party and don't let the other party take action." Gu Zheng saw that the other party didn't have any intention, thought of Hua Xin's words, and made arrangements for her .
"If I go, I may not be able to intimidate the other party. After all, my strength is at a lower level than him. Even if he begs us... Okay, I'll go!"
Hua Xin looked embarrassed. After all, he was interfering with the other party and forcing him to do so. The other party would not give him face because of his race.
Maybe he would be attacked by the other party, but after Gu Zheng looked at him with unkind eyes, he understood his situation. His life was still in the hands of the other party, so he immediately stopped trying to shirk and looked like he was generously serving justice. , as if a huge sacrifice had been made.
Gu Zheng ignored the other party's pretense and continued to wait patiently. He had already noticed the movement not far away, and it seemed that the other party had arrived a long time ago.
Perhaps it was because the little demon boy also discovered the bridge. After half a day, when he felt completely safe, he cautiously walked around from a distance.
He had already put away the stones in his hands, carrying the bamboo basket on his back, stopping every step, looking left and right, and approached the bridge.
She was also shrewd. Although there was no one nearby, she did not come out of the black mist, revealing that she could safely penetrate into the black mist.
"It's your turn."
Gu Zheng felt that the water demon in the distance was starting to move again. He obviously regarded the little demon boy in front of him as prey, so he couldn't help but say something.
In order to ensure absolute safety, he would not wait for the other party to take action before taking action.
Hua Xin had no choice but to reveal her body, pretending to be rushing ahead, and sped away from here, just in time to meet the little demon boy in front of the bridge.
The appearance of Hua Xin startled the little demon boy. He was hesitating whether to retreat a little distance first, but Hua Xin had already taken the initiative to greet him.
"Hey, where did this little demon come from? He's really pretty. Let me take a look."
Hua Xin deliberately pretended to be interested in getting close to the little demon boy, regardless of whether the other party was willing or not, she leaned directly next to him and spoke enthusiastically.
"Are you going to the other side too? It's fate that we meet each other. I happen to be bored alone. Let's come together. Are you alone?"
He stretched out his hand to catch the little demon boy who wanted to escape, and then led her forward with a smile. At the same time, he kept looking at the other person, and it seemed that he was really interested in her.
Of course, the little demon boy recognized the other party's identity. Seeing the other party like this, he didn't dare to resist at all. He could only shrink back and follow the other party with a scared look on his face. He looked like he wanted to leave but dared not leave. No. Dare to be angry but dare not speak.
Hua Xin kept talking, stretched out her hand and pinched the other person's face, and led the other person onto the bridge with a playful look.
Gu Zheng was in the distance, and he could clearly feel that the water demon ambushing below hesitated. The body that had already rushed out returned to the range of the Soul River again, hesitating a little, and kept wandering underwater. In the end, it seemed that he was not preparing to sneak attack on the opponent. Staying quietly under the water, the faint murderous intention on his body gradually disappeared.
There are no traces of the original battle on the entire bridge. Although the bridge does not look like much, in fact no one can destroy it.
Hua Xin pulled the little demon boy and quickly walked through the middle. At this moment, the water demon who had been staying motionless on the water suddenly moved and instantly rushed from the Soul River to the vicinity of the bridge, and continued to explode water columns into the sky. Repeating the old trick, wanting to severely injure the other party.
It turns out that he didn't give up hunting, but thought that he might be discovered by the other party if he got close, so he didn't ambush nearby.
As the water drops fell from the sky again, feeling the aura that was devastating to her, the little demon child was completely stunned. She could only stand on the bridge in a daze, waiting for the water drops to fall.
However, the other party suddenly had a vigilant heart in his heart, but he never relaxed. While feeling the movement around him, he had already put up a defense and ran ahead before the water column exploded.
In this place, the enemy's strength is higher than hers. Even with her special abilities, she is unable to defeat them.
But as soon as he took two steps, he realized that he had just thought about running away, and the little guy he wanted to protect was still where he was.
Seeing that the water column in the air had dispersed, he immediately turned back to the other party, grabbed her arm, and ran forward with her.
However, after such a delay, he could no longer escape the range of the water column, and could only watch the water column coming towards him.
The water demon below has reappeared in the air, eyes flashing with excitement, as if seeing something great tonic, staring closely at the center of the painting, eyes filled with strong killing intent, as if there is something Like a deep hatred.
Hua Xin had been prepared for this for a long time and was not in a hurry. The transparent black shield that had been propped up around him twisted for a while, and it felt like the entire shield came to life, shaking like water waves. Together with the appearance of the women inside, They are all somewhat incomplete and unclear, as if they are hidden under the very deep seabed.
Once those water droplets hit the strange shield, they were directly bounced away without causing any harm to them at all.
The water demon seemed to have known this outcome for a long time. He stretched his palm forward, and a large black water flow emerged from it, quickly laying a thick wall of water on the bridge in front, completely blocking Hua Xin's way, and at the same time, the whole person fell from the air. , launched an attack towards Hua Xin.
The painting heart in front of him waved his hand, and the small Qingluo fan instantly appeared in his hand. A green light condensed from it, drawing a blue arc in the air, and landed directly on the black water wall in front of him, exploding with a huge bang. cyan light.
The entire black water wall was split in half by the cyan light, and a huge hole appeared in the middle. Even though the water on both sides was constantly trying to heal and block the gap, a stream of cyan energy was constantly squirming around the cracked edge. Block the opponent and let the water flow on both sides approach, as if in slow motion.
Hua Xin was overjoyed and wanted to take the opportunity to rush over. Teng Na's space on the bridge was too small, and more importantly, she had a small burden, which put her at a disadvantage.
How could the water demon who was falling in the air let the other party leave easily? He grabbed it with his hand. On top of the intact water wall, black water balls the size of fists emerged from it and shot toward Hua Xinchan.
He had noticed that the other party seemed to want to protect the little demon boy. Although he didn't know why, most of the attacks were directed at the little demon boy who had no resistance at all.
When Hua Xin saw this, she felt even more angry, but she had to free her hands to fight off the attack in front of her. There was not much room to dodge on the entire bridge.
One hand protected the little demon boy, and the small fan in the other hand danced into a phantom in the air. Under the dance of green light, black water balls made the sound of bursting bubbles in the air, and were crushed one after another, but It also succeeded in delaying her pace.
When all the black balls in front of her disappeared, the water wall had destroyed the green light, completely healed, and blocked her way again. More importantly, the water demon also fell behind her, blocking them on the bridge. above.
"You dare to attack me. Do you know how much you have to pay, and your race will have to pay the price for this. If you don't get out of the way quickly, maybe I will consider mitigating your punishment."
Hua Xin raised her eyebrows, and regardless of her own situation, since the other party dared to take action, she immediately shouted at the other party.
"Do you think your identity can still scare me? Since I dare to take action, as long as you die, of course I am not afraid of anyone finding out. If I am to blame, it is because you should not be here at this time." The water demon is not in danger from Hua Xin. He took a step closer and said.
While he was speaking, dots of blue light emerged from his body, forming a huge blue transparent shield around him, completely enveloping them all.
Since he had already made his move, he couldn't let the other party escape, otherwise he would not be able to survive even if he escaped to the ends of the earth, not to mention that he was full of inextinguishable hatred for Hua Xin's clan.
As soon as he finished speaking, his whole body burst into a huge black light, and a black stream of water swirled out from under him, forming a huge black water column, like a parallel tornado, with a huge roar of waves, occupying more than half of the space on the bridge, rushing towards Hua Xin.
There was no place to hide!
