Chapter 21: A Sword Attacks

Now that they had a goal, the three chatted while flying at high speed. Although the sword-controlling flying technique is quite common, it is a skill developed by senior monks specifically for traveling. Therefore, even a low-level monk like Xiao Mian can travel thousands of miles a day with a low-grade magic weapon like the Qingfeng Sword. In just three hours, they have flown hundreds of miles.

A vast red forest appeared in front of them. From a distance, it looked like a flame rising into the sky. When they got closer, they found that it was a red maple forest covering the mountains. It was late autumn at this time, and the maple trees were full of red leaves. When the mountain mist passed, it was like a blaze rising into the sky.

"Is this the Huoyun Ridge? It's so beautiful! Even if you can't see the fire beast, it's worth the trip to see this scene!" When Fu Qingqiong said this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he obviously loved the scenery here. Lu Chengfeng was also amazed. Seeing Xiao Mian looking at him in confusion, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is not the first time I've come to Huoyun Ridge. To be honest, I came here to hunt Fire Beasts in the dead of winter a few years ago. At that time, it was covered with snow and there was not a single red leaf. I didn't expect that Huoyun Ridge must be visited in late autumn. This time I stumbled upon it by accident."

"Did you get anything last time?"

"No! I just happened to meet him by chance. After all, the Fire Beast is only a second-level monster. Its combat power is not even comparable to that of ordinary Qi training cultivators. Its only use is to make Fire Alkane Clothes, but Fire Alkane Clothes are useless to my Five Elements Sect!"

"Why is that?"

"Although my Five Elements Sect is now in decline, Shangshuo Wannian is worthy of its reputation. In fact, the big sects, but a shocking event suddenly happened ten thousand years ago, causing many big sects like the Five Elements Sect to fall into it. In the end, the sky collapsed, the mountains were burned and the seas were boiled, and only one in ten mortals survived. It was called the catastrophe in history. In the catastrophe, many advanced skills of the Five Elements Sect were lost, such as the Great Five Elements Escape Technique! "Speaking of this, seeing that the two were fascinated, Lu Chengfeng smiled complacently: "Although the Great Five Elements Escape Technique has been lost, the initial mental method has been retained. As long as it is practiced, it can avoid fire and water and not be hurt. What is the use of this fire alkane clothing?"

"Ancient catastrophe? I didn't expect there is such a saying!"

Fu Qingqiong obviously heard about this for the first time, but Xiao Mian listened to it more as a story - just kidding! What does the matter of ten thousand years ago have to do with him?

Said this and laughed, the three people's thoughts on finding the Firelight Beast faded a little.

Unexpectedly, the world is like this. The three people no longer deliberately look for the Firelight Beast, but the Firelight Beast began to trouble the three people.

At first, it was just a flash of fire that suddenly burst out from the maple forest. Seeing the three people, it seemed to be frightened, and turned in another direction and rushed into the maple forest with a "squeak".

The little beast was the Firelight Beast. The strange thing was that the flames on the Firelight Beast rose, but it would not ignite when it touched the maple leaves. The Firelight Beast rushed around in the maple forest like a fish in water. No wonder the Firelight Beast settled in Huoyun Ridge.

Waking up from the shock of seeing the Firelight Beast with their own eyes, the three looked at each other and almost chased after the Firelight Beast at the same time - although a Firelight Beast skin is not very useful, it is not useless!

What's more, the three people took action with the interest of playing.

At this time, Xiao Mian, the slowest one, walked slowly in the middle, and Lu Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong went around on the left and right, intending to cut off the Firelight Beast's retreat and capture it.

However, before the three people formed a circle, the fire beast rushed out again as if in a panic, and rushed towards Xiao Mian's direction.

The three were stunned, but the next moment, except for Xiao Mian who opened his arms for no reason and prepared to catch the fire beast alive, Lu Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong had already stopped their bodies, and looked at the impenetrable maple forest with a serious look, fully alert.

As expected, just when the fire beast rushed into Xiao Mian's arms in a panic, there was a huge shock in front, and then the originally perfect maple forest seemed to be cut in half by a sharp blade, and the tip of the blade was a blue flying sword.

The target of the flying sword was Xiao Mian who trapped the fire beast.

"Stop!"

"Be careful!"

Almost at the same time, Lü Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong shouted, and then Lü Chengfeng's Qingyin Sword drew a wind-green sword light and attacked the enemy deep in the maple forest; Fu Qingqiong's flying sword turned sharply, chasing the flying sword and trying to shoot it down; Xiao Mian was shocked when he heard the two people's warnings, and then he was shocked by the power and speed of the flying sword. Without thinking, Xiao Mian took out the Hunyuan Stone and rushed into it like crazy.

The Hunyuan Stone instantly enlarged and blocked Xiao Mian.

With a "ding" sound, the deadly flying sword hit the Hunyuan Stone lightly, and the huge Hunyuan Stone trembled. Xiao Mian was also shaken all over. The violent shock was continuously transmitted from the flying sword to the Hunyuan Stone with the contact of the sword tip, and then from the Hunyuan Stone to Xiao Mian's body with the connected true energy.

Xiao Mian felt his blood boiling, as if his entire body was about to burst out.

Fortunately, the Hunyuan Stone was not an ordinary mid-level magical weapon. Although he was trembling all over, he was still able to withstand the shock of the flying sword.

At the same time, Fu Qingqiong's flying sword followed closely behind.

After successfully building his foundation and becoming a disciple of Biluoxian, Fu Qingqiong not only got a high-level storage bag, but also got a high-level magic sword, Shuiyun Sword!

It was for this reason that Shuiyun Sword could resist the blue flying sword.

At the same time, Lu Chengfeng's Qingyin Sword was about to attack the opponent himself. Under such circumstances, the enemy who had almost killed Xiao Mian before he showed up chose to retreat temporarily. The azure flying sword returned without success. Fu Qingqiong followed Shuiyun Sword to Xiao Mian. Seeing that Xiao Mian looked bad but was not seriously injured, he was relieved. At the same time, Lu Chengfeng's Qingyin Sword encountered the nameless flying sword in the depths of the maple forest that the three could not see. The two fought several times, but they were evenly matched and neither could do anything to the other.

"I don't know who you are, but since you are passing through the sphere of influence of our Five Elements Sect, can you show yourself?" Seeing that his flying sword could not do anything to the other party, Lu Chengfeng's face became solemn: the other party's cultivation was not inferior to his, and his flying sword was also a high-level magic weapon. There were not many such masters in the Five Elements Sect. If he was not a member of the Five Elements Sect, he would have to be more cautious. The man seemed to know that he could not do anything to Lu Chengfeng and the other two for a while. After knocking the Qingyin Sword away, the man did not show himself and retreated directly. Before leaving, he shouted angrily: "Humph! The Five Elements Sect is so powerful! Today's revenge, Nie will definitely take revenge one day!"

Lu Chengfeng did not pursue, but only recalled his Qingyin Sword, but did not put it back into the storage bag, obviously afraid that the mysterious monk surnamed Nie would kill back.

After a long time, the wind and waves were calm, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the mysterious man who has not shown his face is also quite afraid of the strength shown by the three people - or more accurately, he is afraid of the two foundation-building cultivators Lu Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong. He can be regarded as courageous to withdraw from the matter after missing the attack.

"Let's go?" At this time, Xiao Mian's face has returned to normal. After all, he did not directly confront the mysterious man, and the Hunyuan Stone has amazing defense. The pale face at the beginning was mostly caused by fear. Seeing Lu Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong rushing to his side, Xiao Mian felt relieved and grabbed the fire beast in his hand and complained: "It's all this little guy's fault. I almost got cut into pieces by a sword..."

"Xiao Junior Brother, I really don't know whether it's luck or bad luck to follow you!" Fu Qingqiong rolled his eyes at Xiao Mian in anger, and turned his beautiful eyes to see the fire beast trapped by Xiao Mian's true energy, Curiously asked: "Is this the Fire Beast? It's really small! Judging from this head, it may take more than a hundred to make a fire suit!"

"This little guy doesn't seem to be an adult yet! It is rumored that an adult Fire Beast is ranked as a second-level monster. Even if the combat power is not strong, it may not be controlled by Junior Brother Xiao." Just as he said this, Lu Chengfeng's face suddenly changed and he exclaimed: "Not good!"

Following that, Xiao Mian, who trapped the Fire Beast, suddenly felt that his Qi ball seemed to be burning. The hot air expanded rapidly, and the Qi ball was about to explode.

Lu Chengfeng and Fu Qingqiong were both quick-eyed and quick-handed, and they attacked almost at the same time.

Two streams of Qi, one blue and one blue, rushed out of their bodies, wrapped Xiao Mian's Qi ball, blue inside and green outside, and formed a triple Qi shield with Xiao Mian's Qi ball, which stabilized the situation again.

Looking at the Fire Beast again, I was surprised to see tears in the eyes of the little beast, revealing a heartbreaking expression of grief.

The three of them were all stunned. It was obvious that the Fire Beast wanted to explode its body rather than fall into the hands of the three, but it was suppressed by the three quick-eyed and quick-handed people. It was just unexpected that this immature Fire Beast was so stubborn. When it saw that there was no hope of escape, it would rather choose to be torn to pieces than to contribute its fur to humans.

Perhaps in its eyes, this is the final revenge...
