Chapter 188 In the Mountains
"What on earth is that!!"
Gu Xia couldn't help but shudder, his heart trembling.
Ever since he learned the mysterious skills, he had never felt such primitive and pure fear again.
He instinctively wanted to escape the gaze of those eyes of the abyss, and couldn't help but take a step back.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss...
A rapid and noisy hiss came from behind Gu Xia.
He looked back.
He saw that the strange insects who were worshiping had all gathered together at this moment, and their mouthparts made ferocious hissing sounds.
It was like a fanatical believer seeing a heretic who disrespected God.
Gu Xia was surrounded by the swarm of insects. In the dream, he lost his power and could only step back like an ordinary person.
But the deformed and ugly strange insects were still pressing forward step by step, and soon he had no place to stand.
The next second, the swarm of insects swarmed up.
Gu Xia was instantly pushed down into the black hole in the middle of the sun altar and fell into the endless abyss.
The unknown eyes from countless other worlds stared at Gu Xia, as if they had already regarded him as a sacrifice.
"Oops!"
Gu Xia was horrified. If he really fell into that abyss, he didn't know what kind of indescribable horror he would face.
...
"Hoohoohoo!!!"
Gu Xia sat up from the bed in a sweat, his heart throbbing in his chest, and it took a long time for him to gradually calm down.
"...It was just a dream, and I would wake up when I was frightened or stimulated."
"...But is it really just a dream? What exactly is the blood sea mentioned by the Origin Cult?"
Gu Xia was a little confused.
Dongdongdong!
There was a knock on the door.
It was just dawn, and it was still dark outside. I didn't know who was disturbing me.
It turned out that several yamen runners came panting, and it seemed that they had something urgent.
"Master Gu, we found something."
Gu Xia: "What's going on?"
Yaman: "Two groups of people broke through the checkpoint and escaped from Yundiao Town. They are probably the demons you are tracking."
Gu Xia pondered for a moment: "Two groups? Did the Taoist with pink skull find an accomplice? That's right, his savings of many years were burned, and he probably fled to someone he knew."
Again, "Where did they flee to?"
Yaman: "Both groups went to the Ever Wasteland Forest, but they split into two groups."
Gu Xia frowned. The demons like to go to the Ever Wasteland Forest when they run away. Once they get in, they are hard to find.
"When did they flee?"
Gu Xia thought that if the Taoist with pink skull had been away for more than two hours, he would return home and give up the mission.
Yaman: "We found something a quarter of an hour ago and immediately came to inform you, Master!"
Hearing this, Gu Xia was not happy.
"Oh, it seems to be God's will. God wants me to enter the vast forest. I wonder what I will encounter there?
They deliberately split into two groups. They don't want me to bring helpers. Then I will follow God's will."
Without much hesitation, he said to a yamen runner: "Take me to chase the demon.
Others go to inform the monks and female knights who are traveling with me and ask them to chase on the other side.
Tell them that if they can't find the demon, they can stay or leave as they please. I, Gu Xia, will not interfere."
"Yes, sir."
Several yamen runners went to wake up the three people in other rooms.
The yamen runners who stayed turned around and went downstairs: "Hero, let's go."
"No need to be so troublesome, hurry up."
Gu Xia waved his hand, and an invisible air wave blew the window open with a bang.
"Follow me! Just point the direction."
Gu Xia grabbed the yamen runner's clothes with one hand, and urged the light martial arts blood shadow step under his feet.
In an instant, the two flew out of the window. Gu Xia stepped on his toes, and the mysterious force rebounded. His body directly defied gravity and flew into the air and came to the roof.
"Which way?"
"That way!"
Gu Xia looked at the direction and took the yamen runner with him. In an instant, he moved more than ten feet, more than twice as fast as an ordinary good horse.
In less than half a cup of tea, Gu Xia led the yamen runner to the edge of the town.
"This is the direction, hero."
The yamen runner pointed out a road, which was a mountain road opened up by hunters to hunt at the edge of the Everbright Forest.
Gu Xia didn't hesitate, put down the yamen runner, and went into the mountains alone.
Xingchen launched the scanning function, and all the subtle traces within a radius of 16 feet were retrieved by AI, and marked in Gu Xia's vision in different categories.
He followed the latest footprints, used Qinggong, and chased forward quickly.
...
Gu Xia jumped up from the treetop, moved dozens of feet in the air, and then landed on the crown of another tree.
The edge of the sky in the distance showed a fish belly white.
He had been chasing for half an hour and went deep into the Everbright Forest for more than a hundred miles.
Just to maintain the Qinggong, Gu Xia consumed nearly 30% of the Blood Demon Mysterious Power in his body.
He took out the blood lotus, recovered his Mysterious Power, and continued to chase along the trail.
At this time, only two petals of the blood lotus condensed with Yu Wusi's life remained unwithered.
The other petals were transformed into Gu Xia's power.
The reason why two petals were left was that even if the blood lotus was fully transformed into power, it would not be able to push his Blood Demon Mysterious Power to the peak of the Mysterious Flow.
He simply left two petals as a backup energy source.
"What is that?"
Gu Xia suddenly saw something, and his figure quickly moved forward more than a hundred feet and landed on the ground.
...
The Pink Skull Taoist, who was still hugging people on both sides in the wild mountains and ridges, was startled by the man who suddenly fell from the sky.
Then he smiled triumphantly: "I didn't expect you to catch up so quickly!"
Gu Xia said calmly: "Call out your ambush!"
The Pink Skull Taoist was surprised: "You actually knew there was an ambush?!"
Gu Xia: "With your strength, you can't cause any obstacles to me! You dare to face me and not run away, you must rely on something."
Seeing that he was despised, the Pink Skull Taoist was a little annoyed: "Hmph! Bastard! You dare to come when you know there is an ambush! You really don't know how to live or die!
Come out! Chop this guy into pieces! No, I want to spare his life.
He actually destroyed the dolls I have accumulated for so long, so I can't kill him so easily."
Accompanied by the Pink Skull Taoist's shouting, a group of black-robed people with hoods and unclear faces walked out of the surrounding forest. There were a total of more than a dozen people, holding spears like long-handled swords.
They all had the same pattern on their bodies, which was the symbol of the Origin Church - the Eye of the Sea of Blood.
Obviously, they were all believers of the Origin Church.
It was not too unexpected for Gu Xia. When the Pink Skull Taoist took out the silver nail inlaid with the Origin Glass Crystal, he knew that this demon was probably related to the Origin Religion.
Gu Xia patted the storage bag on his waist, and a red light shot out. It was the Feihong Sword.
As soon as he moved his mind, the flying sword flew out quickly according to the trajectory preset by the stars, slashing at those black-robed people.
Clang! Clang...
A sharp sound.
Those black-robed people waved their spears, and each of them could block the flying sword steadily.
Gu Xia was slightly shocked. The reaction of the mysterious power in these black-robed people was not obvious, but their strength was not low. The fact that they could block the flying sword proved that their strength was at least at the same level as Monk Huiming.
Seeing that Gu Xia's flying sword failed, the Taoist with pink skull laughed arrogantly: "Hahaha! Boy! Do you know how powerful you are? You actually dared to hunt me down!
First I'll take you down, then I'll kill that monk, and finally I'll catch that female hero and play with her in front of you, hehe!!"
These black-robed men do have some strength, but they are still far behind Gu Xia.
"It seems that we have to get serious."
At this moment, he no longer needs to hide his strength, and simply shows his full strength.
The thick blood demon mystical power in Dantian suddenly flows violently and turbulently.
The spear in Gu Xia's hand is wrapped by the solid mystical power like blood flow, turning into a huge blood spear of more than ten feet.
There is even a red glow on his body, and the blood demon mystical power is leaping, as if the whole person is wrapped in a layer of blood flames, looking majestic, like a demon god.
This is the mystical flame that only a small number of talented warriors who practice earth-level and above skills can have when they reach the late stage of the mystical flow.
It is a manifestation of the extreme strength of the warrior's body, and a small part of it is out of control and overflowing.
When you reach the Zang realm and have a higher degree of control over the Xuanli, the Xuanyan will disappear.
