Chapter 57 Blood Shadow
Somewhere in the cave.
The silver-gray dragon armor knife, with the blessing of air cutting, exuded a dark brilliance with a strong texture.
Su Yuan held the long knife tightly, raised his hand and fell, and with one knife, he split the steel bone wolf in front of him, which was emitting high-level bronze fluctuations, into two!
Su Yuan dug out a star core from its skull with ease, and his eyes showed thought.
"Another dead star beast, it seems that it really overlaps part of the hell plane. It is much more dangerous than imagined..."
As for the East Continent, there are very few secret realms connected to hell.
And the creatures in hell, whether they are dead spirits, demons... all races, are relatively difficult to deal with. Not only do they have various special abilities, but they are also often extremely tenacious.
"But no matter what, there are really a lot of dead star beasts here, and it is comfortable to brush stardust."
Raising his hand, he transformed the star core into a [Bone Strengthening] and decomposed it casually. Su Yuan put away the long knife and continued to walk forward.
Before he had taken a few steps, Su Yuan suddenly heard some noises coming from the front. He looked up and saw a man and a woman running away in a panic in the distance.
And behind them, there was a large group of ghouls chasing them!
"So much experience dog food..."
Su Yuan chuckled, and immediately moved forward with a knife...
"Zhang Yang, what should we do now? We will be caught up sooner or later!" Yang Jie asked anxiously with a pale face.
Although Zhang Yang was calm, his face was not good.
Both of them were freshmen of Yunyang College. After the eruption of Huoyan Mountain, many students of Yunyang College entered the lava cave as soon as possible.
Zhang Yang and Yang Jie also came with a team of other classmates, but as soon as they came in, they all dispersed.
Fortunately, Zhang Yang was lucky enough to meet Yang Jie soon.
So the two of them kept moving forward in a team, and formed a team with several other people on the way.
But not long ago, the team accidentally broke into a cave deep in the ground with a large number of undead creatures.
A melee broke out, and everyone was no match for them. In the chaos, Zhang Yang and Yang Jie were lucky enough to escape, but they could not get rid of the large number of ghouls chasing them from behind.
Ghouls are only the lowest creatures in hell, and their strength is not strong, but they often act in groups and have an irresistible desire for fresh flesh and blood.
Once the target is determined, they will pursue it to the end!
Zhang Yang said in a deep voice: "There is no good way. There are three bronze-level ghoul leaders following behind. If you stop now, you will die! Keep running and see if there is any turning point!"
Yang Jie also knew that there was no other good way, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Why is this lava cave like this? There are so many difficult undead creatures, which are completely different from the information I found. If I had known earlier... huh?!"
At this moment, a strong pressure suddenly came down, and Yang Jie and Zhang Yang groaned and half-knelt on the ground with their hands on the ground!
"What is this?!"
Zhang Yang was horrified and raised his head slowly with difficulty. He could vaguely see a figure holding a knife moving around. The sound of the knife hitting the flesh continued, and occasionally there were screams from the ghouls.
"Zhang Yang, what's going on? Are we going to die?" Yang Jie was in shock, but she couldn't raise her head to see what was happening.
But Zhang Yang quickly calmed down and whispered, "No, it seems that someone is helping us kill the ghouls!"
After about five minutes, the two suddenly felt lighter, and the terrifying pressure suddenly dissipated from their bodies.
"Haaa..."
Zhang Yang stood up with a heavy breath, looked around, and was stunned.
All he saw were the remains of ghouls that were broken into two pieces. Most of them had their heads cut off, and a few had their bodies roughly chopped off.
But without exception, all the ghouls were killed in one blow...including the four bronze-level ghoul leaders!
"This..." Zhang Yang swallowed his saliva in a daze.
The enemy that he and Yang Jie had fought desperately to escape with their lives, but now, all died in just five minutes? !
Suddenly, a breeze blew behind him, and Zhang Yang turned around, only to see a handsome young man with silver eyes appearing in front of him.
In the young man's hand, the silver-gray long sword was still stained with some blood and flesh, and blood kept dripping from the blade.
"Are you all right?" Su Yuan looked at the two people and asked.
"No... nothing." Zhang Yang quickly came back to his senses and took a deep breath, "Thank you classmate for helping us."
Yang Jie, who was standing by, was staring at Su Yuan with wide eyes in doubt. At this time, she also reacted and said quickly: "Classmate, thank you so much!"
"Nothing, just a little help." Su Yuan waved his hand, "My name is Su Yuan. I wonder where you are from? Why were you chased by so many zombies just now?"
"My name is Zhang Yang, her name is Yang Jie, we are both students of Yunyang College. We came here together a few days ago, but we were separated because of the random teleportation in the secret realm...
The reason why we were chased by these zombies is that there is a large cave in front of us, which contains a large number of undead creatures led by more than a dozen bronze-level undead. Among them, there are several bronze undeads of elite quality and powerful.
Our team is no match, everyone was dispersed, and the two of us also fled here in the chaos and were rescued by you. Thank you so much!"
"A large number of undead creatures?"
Su Yuan's eyes lit up. There were still many star beasts? And there were several elite star beasts?
Stardust is not too much, the more the better!
Before coming here, I used the stardust I hunted in the Great Savage Mountain Area to upgrade Holy Light Baptism and Air Cut to the Transformation Realm and Perfection respectively.
If I hunt more than 2,000 stardust, I can upgrade Air Cut to the Transformation Realm!
Moreover, even if the skills that have been embedded have been upgraded to the Transformation Realm, accumulating a lot of stardust in advance, I can directly upgrade them to the maximum after embedding new skill star cards in the future!
Besides, there are several elite star beasts over there at Zhang Yang's place, just to see if there are any good skills!
It's different now.
At the beginning, I was weak, and a green card was worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. It was good to have one, so how could I be qualified to pick it?
But now that I have broken through the bronze and my strength has greatly increased, it is not difficult to hunt bronze elite star beasts. Even the master star beast, as long as I can meet it, I have a certain degree of confidence to kill it.
In this way, I can slowly pick some good skills!
"Can you take me there?" Su Yuan asked.
Yang Jie was shocked when she heard this: "Are you sure you want to go? It's very dangerous over there, there are even two high-level bronze elites! There are also masters from Qingzhou College and Shuzhou College in our team, and we can't stop them at all!"
"Sure," Su Yuan knew what Yang Jie was thinking, and immediately said, "Don't worry, just take me to the vicinity."
There are many forks in this cave, and Su Yuan may not be able to find it if he really wants to find it by himself.
Yang Jie still hesitated: "This..."
"I'll take you there!" Zhang Yang said decisively.
To be honest, Zhang Yang was a little hesitant at first, but when he thought of the terrifying strength shown by Su Yuan, he might still have time to help those people in the original team if he went there now.
Su Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, thank you very much."
"You're welcome. You saved us. I just led the way." Zhang Yang shook his head and looked at Yang Jie. "Yang Jie, if you don't want to go, just wait for me here."
Yang Jie looked at the large number of corpses of ghouls on the ground, and couldn't help but think of the fear and despair when the two of them were chased by the ghouls.
Besides, there are more than a dozen bronze-level undead in the cave...
If we go closer, once we are discovered and caught up again, we may not be able to escape as luckily as we are now.
This Su Yuan is very strong, but he can't be the opponent of more than a dozen bronze-level undead!
After thinking quickly in his heart, Yang Jie finally smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you here, be careful, and come back quickly."
Zhang Yang nodded, and after Su Yuan collected the star cores on the ground, he took Su Yuan away.
Yang Jie watched the two people rush away and sighed secretly.
The danger level of this secret realm is far higher than he thought. The most important thing at the moment is to ensure his own safety...
It is dangerous to teleport into the secret realm randomly, but it is easy to leave. As long as you wait patiently until the secret realm is automatically closed after the energy is exhausted, you can leave from any position with the help of the repulsive force of the secret realm.
According to previous records, the lava caves of Huoyan Mountain are often open for about ten days.
Yang Jie was thinking, but she didn't notice that there was a blood shadow in the dark space shooting from not far away, and it came behind Yang Jie in a moment!
At such a close distance, Yang Jie heard the sound of the wind, and her heart jumped immediately. She turned around and raised her star power without thinking and slapped it with her palm!
Green fire skill, burning body palm!
"Pah!"
The two palms met, and Yang Jie was hastily hit by the blood shadow and flew out, a mouthful of blood sprayed on the ground, and was seriously injured on the spot!
Yang Jie looked up at the original place, and the one who attacked her was a feminine young man with a smile on his mouth and a rosy face.
"Burning body!" Yang Jie shouted angrily.
The subsequent power of the Burning Body Palm exploded, and flames immediately spread from the right palm of the feminine young man!
"A trifle~" The feminine young man sneered, and his entire right arm suddenly liquefied into blood. The blood rolled and easily extinguished the flame of the Burning Body Palm, and then returned to normal.
Yang Jie saw that the other party had so strangely and easily cracked the Burning Body Palm that she had practiced hard to perfection, and her face changed, and she asked in horror: "Who are you?!"
The feminine young man did not answer, but chuckled, and his figure flashed and turned into a blood shadow and shot in front of Yang Jie, holding her head.
"Blood clothes."
With the feminine young man's low shout, a large amount of surging blood swarmed out of his hand, and in an instant, Yang Jie's whole body was wrapped up, like an extremely tight blood-colored coat.
"Ugh!..."
Yang Jie struggled frantically, but the star power in her body could not break through this thin layer of blood clothes at all, and was tightly compressed in her body.
At the same time, a burst of flesh-corroding pain came from all over her body.
"Ah... Gululu...!"
As soon as Yang Jie opened her mouth in pain, a large amount of blood poured into her mouth!
Gradually, the movement in the blood-stained robe became weaker and weaker.
After a moment, the feminine young man raised his hand, and the blood-stained robe turned into a large piece of blood and shrank back into his body.
"Yes, the star power has increased a little bit..."
The feminine young man nodded with great enjoyment, looked up at the direction where Su Yuan and the others left, curled his lips, and turned into a blood shadow and quietly followed.
And at the original place, only a skeleton that was corroded and blackened was left...
