Chapter 15: Scarlet Twilight (2nd shift, 3800 words)
As he gazed, it was the Blood Shadow Squad that was besieging the Thunder Team!
At this moment, the sun was slowly setting in the sky, and the afterglow was being replaced by night in the distance.
It seemed like it wouldn't take long for the darkness to cover the entire land.
And a gust of coldness, also gradually from the dark color slowly grows out, filled with eight directions.
The jungle is still in the afterglow, like a struggling old man, unwilling to fall, and the light of the setting sun seems to have little strength to help, powerless to penetrate the dense foliage, dim and sparse.
But Xu Qing, who was hidden within the canopy of the trees, was different, as he coldly watched the battlefield, reflecting all the sights into his icy cold eyes.
There were a total of five people in the Blood Shadow Squad, two of them were the main force that struck out, and three of them were blocking the way around to prevent the Lei Team from escaping.
The latter's cultivation level was comparable to Luan Teeth, both at the third layer.
They didn't dare to get too close and surrounded in the periphery, but the presence of the three made the Thunder Team have to be distracted.
As for the former two, the spiritual energy fluctuation that erupted from one's body was only a hair's breadth away from the Lei Team, and was obviously also at the sixth level of Qi Condensation, and was likewise an old man.
He was cloaked in hair and fierce eyes, at the moment there were tattered clothes on his body, and it could be seen that his muscles seemed to be expanding and bursting, and it was the captain of the Blood Shadow who ate dog meat in the raw.
At this moment, this Blood Shadow's captain licked his lips, striking out swiftly and thunderously while staring grimly at the Thunder Squad whose body was becoming more and more green.
"Today Thunder Squad is bound to be removed from the camp, Thunder Squad you might as well cut yourself, otherwise as that savage ghost spelled to alienation, after death are not allowed to have a whole body, it's not too dignified, if you cut yourself, your team members, I'll take good care of them."
"That's right, Lei team can rest assured, after your death, a few other people in the Thunder Squad, we will go back and take good care of it, that luan tooth's taste I've long wanted to try it, and that child you brought back, selling it to be a treasure keeper should also be worth some money."
The one who opened his mouth after the Blood Shadow Captain's voice was the other person beside him who had struck out with him to besiege the Lei Team.
This person is a middle-aged, ugly appearance, behind the high bulge as if deformed, eyes blind one, only the remaining one-eye within, at the moment there is bloodthirsty intention, around the spiritual energy fluctuations although not as good as its captain, but more than Xu Qing impression of the cross, reached the fifth layer of Qi condensation.
But it wasn't very stable, as if it had just broken through not long ago.
In the face of two people's verbal provocation, Lei team face expressionless only eye seems to have the intention of death, shot more rapidly.
For a moment, the blood shadow duo, who were unwilling to kill the Lei team and were injured too much, slightly retreated and began to fight.
Obviously, they were certain that they would succeed today, so they were prepared to drag each other to death.
"One sixth layer, one fifth layer, and three third layers!" Xu Qing's eyes were blazing with killing intent, in reality, he could have left, but he had a high regard for en, and Team Lei had treated him well from start to finish, so Xu Qing didn't intend to leave, and instead, he flew through the battlefield as well as the surroundings.
This place was not open, there were quite a few trees, the light was hidden, and the dark places were mostly suitable for striking.
After making a judgment in his heart, Xu Qing, who was crouching on the canopy of a tree, had a killing chance explode in his eyes.
His legs ruthlessly stepped on the tree crown, utilizing his strength to gallop, his entire body transformed into a stringed arrow, suddenly approaching.
The strength of his physical body brought about by the third layer of the Hai Shan Skill in conjunction with the purple crystal was completely displayed at this moment.
His speed was so fast that it left clear residual shadows in the canopy, causing the crowd within the battlefield to react before Xu Qing's figure had already rushed within the battlefield in the blink of an eye.
It appeared beside one of the three people on the periphery.
It was a skinny young man, with the figure of the besieged Lei Team still reflected within his triangular eyes, and he hadn't noticed Xu Qing's appearance in the slightest.
Until the cold wind pounded his face, he slightly froze, just about to turn his head, the next moment ...... an iron stick from the position of its temple, with a terrifying strength, directly penetrated.
Not waiting for the body to fall, not waiting for the screams to come out, Xu Qing's body did not pause, bending his feet to borrow the ground and forcefully stepped backward, the speed exploded, such as a cheetah instantly rushed to the front of the other person.
This second scavenger's complexion changed drastically, his pupils contracted, and he was just about to retreat, but Xu Qing was already approaching, his fist carrying the astonishing power of the third layer of the Hai Shan Skill, arriving in an instant.
A blast hit his chest, flesh and blood like mud instantly dented, his back was bursting with blood, clicking bone cracking sound accompanied by Xu Qing's left hand, the dagger was thrown out with terrifying strength, cutting long traces, shooting towards the third person at an extremely fast speed.
While the second person's sternum shattered, his heart collapsed, and his back exploded, the third scavenger in the periphery was completely alerted.
He was just about to make a move in horror, but with a flash of light and a blistering wind, his body froze for a split second, his eyes widened, and his body's instincts caused him to raise his hand with the last of his strength, touching the icy dagger that pierced through and stabbed at the center of his eyebrow.
The force of the dagger was so great that it caused the edge of his eyebrow to be dented, and his bones shattered and his head cracked!
All of this happened in a flash of lightning.
Xu Qing was too fast, and his strike was even more decisive, and at this moment, as the first and third corpses fell, the person in front of him with a shattered sternum and a collapsed heart also fell, revealing the teenager's figure.
The teenager bent over, long black hair covered the upper half of his face, but could not hide the cold and stern eyes like wolves between the hair.
At this moment, he raised his head, and with the Lei Team and Blood Shadow duo, who were shaken by his strike, his eyes locked.
The wind around them seemed to freeze at this moment.
Lei Team's eyes, which were filled with deadly intent, finally rippled at this moment, as he glanced deeply at Xu Qing and suddenly let out a low cry.
"Kid, run away!"
Xu Qing didn't listen to Team Lei's request, but instead stared at the Blood Shadow Squad's captain, his eyes narrowing.
The Blood Shadow Squad's captain, too, looked squarely at Xu Qing for the first time, and especially when he swept over the three corpses by Xu Qing's side, his face twitched slightly, and he was forced to admit that there had been an error in his judgment of Thunder Squad.
The Barbarian Ghost's brazenness was one thing, while this sudden child was another.
"Kill him!"
The Blood Shadow Captain snorted coldly, deciding not to delay the battle any longer to avoid getting hurt.
At this moment between the words, his whole body's aura exploded, and he blasted his fist towards the Thunder Team, and in an instant, he was in a fierce battle with the Thunder Team.
As for the middle-aged man at the fifth level of Qi Condensation next to him, he turned around with a fierce smile and ran straight at Xu Qing.
Between his steps, his entire body released spiritual energy, and while walking, he also pinched his knuckles with both hands, his eyes revealing a cruel intent.
Although the speed of the young man in front of him was astonishing, and he instantly killed three of them, he was still certain that with his just-broken-through fifth-layer cultivation, killing the other party would be a breeze.
Within Xu Qing's narrowed eyes, a cold aura intensified at this moment.
Relying on his judgment of his previous strikes, he thought that he could kill the fourth layer of Qi Condensation, and as for the fifth layer ...... he hadn't fought and wasn't clear.
At this moment, under a sway, Xu Qing suddenly rushed out, speed burst straight to the middle-aged, after the moment of proximity, a fist fell.
The corner of the middle aged cultivator s mouth revealed contempt.
Almost at the instant of Xu Qing's arrival, the spiritual energy fluctuations outside of the middle-aged cultivator's body directly transformed into an invisible barrier that touched Xu Qing's fist.
With a roar, cracks appeared in the barrier, but it did not collapse.
On the contrary, there was a strong counter-vibration force radiating out from within, causing Xu Qing's wrist that touched it to emit a clicking sound, and was even directly dislocated.
Xu Qing's eyes shrunk slightly, his right hand flung fiercely between the body's rapid wandering, forcing the dislocated place to return to the position, the eyes of the ruthlessness of the aura flashed, did not retreat, but once again, a fist with all its might.
Boom a loud sound, that diffuse cracks of the barrier, this time finally completely shattered.
However, right at the moment it was in pieces, a violent impact spread violently from the inside out, lifting up the soil at the same time, this impact also instantly swooped down, covering Xu Qing's entire body.
In particular, the invisible fragments formed by the shattering of the barrier were like an unseen sharp blade, cutting out a bloodstain on Xu Qing's body at a rapid pace, which was shocking to the eyes.
Xu Qing's entire body shook.
His thin body was rolled backwards by this impact, blood dripping from the wounds that appeared in multiple locations, and his wrist, which had just recovered, was now dislocated once again, unnaturally dropping to the side.
"Foolish!"
"District refining body, this is not worthy to fight with law cultivation, not to mention you to three layer not self-conscience to fight my five layer."
The middle-aged cultivator's eyes became even more contemptuous as the dirt fell.
But there was also surprise in the bottom of his heart, it was really because he also did not expect that his Spiritual Energy Barrier would actually collapse under the other party's second punch.
It was a good thing that he had broken through to the fifth layer not long ago, causing his own Spiritual Energy Barrier to explode more after shattering, otherwise, he was afraid that Fang would have his hands full.
Xu Qing's brow furrowed, seemingly unable to feel the severe pain in his entire body and arm, staring at the middle-aged while he placed his right hand on the ground and wrenched it viciously, directly returning the dislocation to its place once again.
This scene of ruthlessness towards himself was seen by the middle-aged cultivator walking towards Xu Qing, his footsteps couldn't help but lurch, his eyes contracted slightly, his hands flew up, and he pointed towards Xu Qing between his chokes.
At that moment, the spiritual energy outside his body once again converged, and even transformed into a head-sized fireball, whistling towards Xu Qing.
The fireball's momentum was astonishing, and in the process of arriving, the surrounding area appeared to be distorted with the intention of rising, visible temperature was extremely high.
After the momentary approach, Xu Qing's body swayed to avoid it, but the fireball continued to pursue.
The eyes of the middle-aged at the moment, the killing chance flashed, not forgetting to form a barrier outside the body at the same time, actually appeared in the second and third fireball, the same chase Xu Qing.
Seeing the arrival of the three fireballs, blocking the route, Xu Qing's eyes narrowed, a tumble to the corpse of one of the people he had killed, swinging the corpse up to slam it into one of the fireballs.
With a boom, the fireball touched the corpse, and in an instant, the corpse incinerated, the process turning into ashes in less than three breaths.
This scene allowed Xu Qing to have a visual judgment of the power of the fireball.
At this moment, there is even more residual warmth invasion, so that his whole body instantly red, his body swayed and was about to avoid, but the second and third fireballs have now approached.
Even more in that middle-aged eyes under the aura of cunning, do not give Xu Qing the opportunity to avoid, the fireballs close to the moment violently burst open.
Boom!
The flames spread out, covering a large area, and the high temperatures created a shocking killing power.
Xu Qing in this area, it was simply difficult to completely dodge, at this moment, although with the help of speed to avoid most of it, but the whole body at this moment or a thick blisters, water vapor evaporation under the viscera as if they were burning.
"Fire Crow, you hurry up!"
The Blood Shadow Captain, who was fighting with the Thunder Team from afar, roared out in a low voice at this moment.
"Understood, captain, this little wolf cub will withstand at most two more fireballs from me and will surely become a dry corpse!"
The middle-aged man known as Fire Crow, smiled back, and when he looked at Xu Qing, the cruelty in his eyes became even more intense, his right hand lifted up, and two blazing fireballs once again appeared around him, waving his hand as the fireballs flew rapidly towards Xu Qing.
He was worried about Xu Qing dodging, so as he did, he controlled these two fireballs to explode the moment they approached Xu Qing, covering the surroundings, sealing off all the places Xu Qing could dodge.
High temperatures filled the air, there were flames burning on the ground, and the trees even turned into ashes in an instant, unable to cover the afterglow of the sky, causing the sunlight to fall on a wide scale, merging with the firelight and covering the eyes of the fire crows.
But he was very confident that the fireball of his fifth level of cultivation, extinguishing the third level would not present any problems.
So he wiped his hands, slightly out of breath but with a look of contempt, and turned towards the place where Team Lei and Captain Blood Shadow were fighting.
"Team Thunder, your people, no way."
As he walked forward, Fire Crow laughed coldly and opened his mouth, but he didn't see Team Lei's despair, instead, he saw a change in the Blood Shadow Captain's face.
Fire Crow's reaction was also fast, and his body jerked to the side to avoid it.
But it was still too late, a skinny figure shot from behind him and directly threw two consecutive punches, blasting at the spiritual energy barrier outside his body.
The barrier shook violently, and immediately shattered, the impact of the outbreak, although the thin figure was forced to fall back, but a dagger as well as an iron stick, but with a whistling, was ruthlessly thrown out, against the odds.
Only the impact brought up by the collapse of the barrier, with a certain resistance, making the speed of the dagger in the near fire crow slowed down a bit, giving the fire crow the opportunity to dodge.
His body dodged in a hurry, but one of his ears was still passed through by the dagger, taking it away in a splash of blood, while the iron stick also penetrated his chest, causing him to spurt out blood, but unfortunately it wasn't vital and couldn't be fatal.
The severe pain made the fire crow's eyes red and hissed, after avoiding it in a mess he looked behind him violently.
Gaze, is stepping on the ground gradually extinguished flames, retreated to seven or eight feet away, half crouched on the ground, ready to fire like a wolf like teenage figure.
Still full of blisters, the whole body red, but at the moment the setting sun reflected in the eyes of the teenager, within the ...... cold mang like ice, killing machine has not reduced the slightest!
