Chapter 43: Blood Dry Forest (two chapters in one)(2/2)
"No, no, no, I have a big secret that I can tell you!!"
Looking at the complex magic circle in Lilith's palm, King Black Water's skin and flesh trembled, and countless faces of men and women screamed in fear.
Hearing this, Xu Tong walked to Lilith and asked: "What secret??"
"Is it possible to exchange a life?" King Blackwater asked.
However, when she saw Lilith's displeased brows, she hurriedly said: "If you go further, you will reach the Ghost-faced Forest, the territory of Thousand-faced Old Monster. Although you are powerful, you may not be the opponent of Thousand-faced Old Monster. I can
Let me tell you the true identity of the Thousand-Faced Old Monster."
When death was imminent, in order to save his life, King Blackwater did not care about the life of his best friend, and opened his mouth to reveal the weakness of the Thousand-Faced Old Monster.
This thousand-faced old monster is a ten thousand-year-old tree demon that sucked the filthy air in front of the ghost gate and turned into a forest.
Every tree is his clone. Unless it is the Yin Shen of Taozhi Mountain, once an outsider walks in, not only will they not be able to get out, but they will be sucked away by the surrounding blood trees at all times.
The more movements there are, the more power is absorbed.
The only way is to destroy his true body.
King Blackwater stretched out a tentacle and took out a dark jar from his mouth.
It looks like a pickle jar, but there is a strange fragrance inside.
Xu Tong was worried that there was a scam, so he just summoned a paper man to pick him up.
"The old monster with a thousand faces has a weakness. He is blind and deaf. He cannot hear or see, but he has a strong sense of smell. As long as you smear this thing on your body, he will not be able to detect you."
Hearing what King Blackwater said, Xu Tongcai took the jar and tried to throw it into the prop book.
【Resentful Water Mud】
A very strange substance, when applied to the body, can block all olfactory detection.
Duration: 3 hours
Cooling time: 7 hours.
After looking at the entry in the props booklet that proved that this item was harmless, Xu Tong finally began to believe the words of King Blackwater a little bit.
But this didn't really reassure him.
"It's okay not to kill you, but just in case, I can only torture you for a while first!"
While Xu Tong was speaking, he took out the Demonic Bell. With the bell in his hand, he shook it lightly and stretched out his hand to launch the soul arresting technique on the Black Water King.
But the moment he took action, Xu Tong's pace was interrupted by the sound of galloping horse hooves behind him.
"boom!!"
Following the rapid sound of breaking wind, Xu Tong instinctively hugged Lilith sideways and escaped.
Then a stream of light was seen, penetrating through the ice, flying past Xu Tong and Lilith, and just in time to pierce the head of King Blackwater with an arrow.
Suddenly, King Blackwater's body trembled violently, and the human faces on his flesh began to shrink rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into black powder and began to dissipate on the netherworld.
Xu Tong suddenly turned around and saw the black-armored warrior on a horse in the distance, holding the long bow and staring at him coldly.
"Fuck, this guy is still haunted!"
Xu Tong's face turned cold when he saw this. He turned back to look at Lilith and whispered, "Can you beat me?"
Lilith looked at the black-armored warrior and shook her head solemnly: "No, this guy is blessed by a great god. We are really no match."
If you have the blessing of Godhead, it will be easy to deal with this guy Lilith.
But I'm afraid he is no match for this guy at this moment.
"If you can't beat me, just run away."
Xu Tong sighed helplessly and said to Gao Zhuo and Chang Wuju: "The wind is blowing hard!"
As he said this, Xu Tong raised his hand and struck the black water in front of him with his sword. For a moment, the black water stirred up huge waves, and then the Xuanyuan Shield was activated. Biting cold air burst out, freezing the waves and turning them into a layer of ice.
The wall blocks their presence.
Then they took Lilith and stepped on a huge piece of broken ice. Gao Zhuo and Chang Wugu knew the idea was going to hurt, so they didn't dare to show any desire to fight and immediately followed them.
"Sit tight!"
Xu Tong shouted, then called out the cold iron gourd with one hand, opened the gourd plug and pointed it behind him.
The Wind Spitting Blade was activated, and an ice storm spurted out from the lake. With this violent wind, it quickly pushed the solid ice under its feet and glided on the water.
Not to mention the speed is quite fast, comparable to that of a small yacht.
Maybe when Xie Qifanba gave this gourd to Xu Tong, he didn't expect that one day, this thing would be able to be used like this.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Arrows continued to shoot through the ice wall behind him. Fortunately, there was an ice wall blocking them. These arrows had almost no accuracy and could only create huge whirlpools on the water.
"hiss!!"
Seeing how terrifying the power of the arrow was, Gao Zhuo couldn't help but take a breath and looked back. The ice wall behind him had been shattered by the arrow, and the black-armored warrior was riding on horseback.
The war horse under its crotch completely ignored the influence of the black water. If you look closely, you can see that the hooves of the war horse have not landed on the water at all, but are hanging in the air.
“Didn’t it say that only the Ghost Emperor can fly??”
Seeing this, Xu Tong couldn't help but feel a little in his heart. The other party's behavior of clearly ignoring the prohibition was definitely not a good thing. I was afraid that if he really handed over Lilith at this moment, the other party might not be able to let them survive.
Who is this guy??
Fortunately, although the opponent's mount was not affected by the black water, its speed in the air was much slower than on the ground. In addition, Xu Tong and others relied on the push of the cold iron gourd to move faster and faster, and they gradually managed to
throw away.
"It's the woods!"
Soon, a large area of bright red forest appeared ahead.
The trees in this forest are of unknown age, each branch is as thick as an adult's waist, and the main trunk is so round that it would take four or five adult men to round it.
There are leaves on the tree that look like maple leaves, but each leaf is extremely huge, so there is no problem in hiding a person.
The land of Hades is thousands of miles away, with no grass growing, but there is such a large forest here, which is really rare.
However, they have already learned from King Blackwater about the dangers of this forest.
It is inevitable to be on guard in my heart.
"Maybe it's an opportunity!"
Chang stared at the woods ahead carelessly, thinking about what King Blackwater had just said, and thought, if this forest really has that kind of terrifying power, maybe they can take advantage of it.
Then he said to Xu Tong: "Take out the jar of mud and let everyone put it on it."
Xu Tong was startled, then nodded, and took out the [Resentful Water Ointment] that King Blackwater had just given. Everyone ignored the smell of this stuff and applied it directly on their bodies carefully.
At this time, Gao Zhuo looked back at Xu Tong and found that Xu Tong seemed a little absent-minded. He couldn't help but ask: "Are you okay?"
"fine!"
Xu Tong shook his head, but he couldn't help but think of Zhu Rongzhi's words: "I saw your death date. Just recently, the blood was sprinkled all over the red leaves, and your body will fall to the ground."
Under a bloody tree, you have no way to survive!"
This low roar echoed in Xu Tong's ears. Just when he was hesitating in his heart, a hand tightly clenched Xu Tong's palm. When he looked up, he saw Lilith's blazing red eyes staring at him.
Lilith pointed her finger at Xu Tong's heart: "I believe you!"
Xu Tong's pupils tightened, and then he took a deep breath, his eyes gradually becoming sharper: "Then I will never let you lose!"
As he said that, Xu Tong stretched out his hand, and saw four golden pills appearing in his palm. They were the trump card [Calendula] that he had prepared for a long time.
