Chapter 197 From this moment on, let...feel the pain...
"Something's wrong."
“Retreat first!”
After Huo Zhuge said "the wind is strong and the situation is very bad", King Jiangnan and Venerable Xuan Ge, who were fighting fiercely over there, soon discovered that something was wrong here.
Huo Zhuge, who possessed the strongest combat ability, was killed by a person with auxiliary abilities? What's the point of fighting?
The two of them looked at each other, made a feint, and turned to leave.
"Want to leave?"
How could Duan Baipao let them leave so easily? A dragon-shaped flame immediately followed him!
Venerable Xuan Ge did not hesitate, puffed up his chest and abdomen, and spit out all the water that had been stored before! Zhan Liuming and King Jiangnan had been fighting each other for a long time, and the King of Jiangnan suddenly withdrew and could not stay.
boom--
The huge waves obliterated all figures in an instant.
Venerable Xuan Ge sat on the shoulders of King Jiangnan, and the giant spread his long legs and ran away.
Since he couldn't use the wind-controlling technique, no one could catch up with him.
This melee came and went quickly, but it was settled in the blink of an eye.
However, when Duan Baipao and Zhan Liuming turned around and looked at Li Chu again, their expressions were slightly complicated.
Duan Baipao was a little surprised and asked, "Master Xiao Li, how did you defeat that villain? As far as I know, the power of the purple fairy gourd seed is the most powerful among the seven fairy gourd seeds."
Just now they had their backs to Li Chu, so they couldn't see the situation here as clearly as the two enemies opposite.
Li Chu replied calmly: "I said that I have certain combat capabilities. My immortal gourd body at this moment not only has clairvoyance and super hearing, but also seems to have some additional... pupil skills."
"Pupil technique?" Duan Baipao pondered for a moment.
There are many magical methods for practicing pupil skills in the martial arts world, and there are also several methods for those born with immortal bodies. Seriously speaking, Zhan Liuming's Seven Stars to Illuminate Life can be regarded as a derived pupil skill.
But he didn't know that the clairvoyance also comes with additional pupil skills.
When the Taoist priest riding a cow was traveling around the world, he had used these seven magic gourd seeds many times.
By using this magical gourd seed to perform the magic of sowing beans to create soldiers, you can summon seven gourd dolls with super powers. You can also combine the seven into one and summon a gourd King Kong that combines seven magical powers...
Therefore, in the Yi Yao Sect, which had been hostile to the Taoist priest riding a bull, the Venerable Xuan Ge knew all the magical powers of the Immortal Gourd Seed. The well-informed Chaotian Que also had a relatively detailed record of these seven magical powers.
However, no matter how much he knew, it was just hearsay. His mount could not compare with the mount that had followed the Taoist priest riding a cow for many years.
…
In the first secret realm.
Shocked.
Daniu stared with his eyes and nostrils, and said in a deep voice: "Good fellow, an arm was gone in one glance. If he hadn't dodged quickly, I'm afraid he would have been gone... Isn't this too powerful? Is this also the ability of the Clairvoyance?"
The Minotaur shook his big head and said, "Don't ask me. I haven't seen it. I don't know anything."
In fact, the Minotaur was once heartbroken.
According to his knowledge, his former master, the Taoist who rides a bull, is the most powerful cultivator in the world.
However, being able to develop new abilities from the fairy gourd seed can only mean one thing, that is, Li Chu's cultivation is stronger than that of the Taoist riding a cow.
It might be a coincidence once, but this time and twice... why is it getting more and more outrageous?
It seems impossible to refute...
but……
How is it possible...
His master is a great demon who has practiced for thousands of years!
To be able to achieve his current level of Taoism, he must have gone through countless years of hard training and experience.
Even if Li Chu is gifted, or even the reincarnation of a powerful being.
How old is he?
Even if he started practicing from the womb, there should still be some basic principles to follow, right?
Now faced with Daniel's questions, he could only shake his head.
I'm just an old ox who has never been to school.
I don't know anything.
I just want to be quiet.
Don’t ask me who Jingjing is.
…
On the other side, the crying man was also lost in thought.
Like the Smiling Man, he was also a stubborn stone on a mountain in the Western Regions. Many years ago, he was enlightened by an unspeakable leader in the Yi Yao Sect and became his lackey.
Over the past few hundred years, the two of them have been sharing joys and sorrows, like one.
After the Smiling Face Man was suddenly killed by Li Chu, the Crying Face Man felt a deep hatred towards the young Taoist priest and wished he could kill him with his own hands immediately to avenge the Smiling Face Man.
But after seeing Li Chu's moves twice.
He was silent.
Then he thought about it carefully.
He thinks.
I don’t seem to be very familiar with the smiling man.
Um.
It was definitely not that I was frightened by that little Taoist priest, but... it seemed that the desire for revenge was not so urgent anymore.
Yes, but it is not necessary.
…
Deep in the jungle.
King Jiangnan, Venerable Xuan Ge, and Huo Zhuge reunited.
In order to prevent being overheard by the Wind-Eared Ear, the three of them agreed to communicate only through telepathy.
Although he could not use his original magical powers, just like Li Chu's spiritual power was preserved, the cultivator's spiritual consciousness and true energy were also preserved, so he could use methods such as telepathy.
"Hmm..." King Jiangnan hesitated to speak.
"Hmm..." Huo Zhuge hesitated to speak.
"Well... waste." Venerable Xuan Ge sprayed out mercilessly.
Huo Zhuge frowned and said, "It's not that I'm useless, I just encountered an accident."
"You can't even deal with an auxiliary." Venerable Xuan Ge continued to scold.
Huo Zhuge said angrily: "He was just an auxiliary? Do you think I lost my arm by myself?"
He shook his empty torso, but because it was the body of the immortal gourd, it was not only not scary, but also a little funny...
King Jiangnan tried his best to restrain himself and said, "Tell me in detail, what happened?"
Huo Zhuge said: "I don't know the details, but his ability is definitely not clairvoyance, or it is more than clairvoyance. At that time, I was about to use the purple gold gourd to capture him, but he was not afraid at all. He just looked at me. Then a terrifying force appeared out of thin air and swallowed my right arm."
"Fortunately, I was alert and dodged quickly, otherwise... I wouldn't just lose an arm."
Speaking of this, he still feels scared.
Venerable Xuan Ge said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you lost a few arms, but you lost the purple gold gourd. That may be the most powerful magic weapon in this secret realm, and you lost it without using it once, hehe."
"I've already said that I'm being targeted. His ability just happens to restrain me. We're a natural nemesis!" Huo Zhuge said anxiously.
"You should withdraw now." Venerable Xuan Ge said again.
The battle for the second level of the secret realm does not mean that you cannot quit. As long as you return to the gourd vine where you fell at the beginning and throw away the fairy gourd seed, you can return to the first level.
But Huo Zhuge was unwilling to give in.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Although I have lost the purple gold gourd, I still have my brain, which I am most proud of."
Venerable Xuan Ge narrowed his eyes and looked him around.
"Who with any brains would let themselves be like this?"
“Hey——” King Jiangnan raised his hand to stop Venerable Xuan Ge and said, “Venerable, Huo Zhuge may have made some mistakes, but please forgive me. He has always been like my right-hand man and indispensable.”
Huo Zhuge was about to cry, and looked at the King of Jiangnan: "Your Majesty, can you please stop emphasizing the importance of your left and right arms..."
King of Jiangnan: “…”
Venerable Black Pigeon said, "Now that the attack and defense are different, it will probably be difficult for us to compete with them. You said you have brains, why don't you talk about what to do now?"
"Hehe." Huo Zhuge smiled proudly: "In fact, I have just considered that losing to them this time may not necessarily be a bad thing."
Venerable Xuan Ge glanced at him and said, "Are you trying to say... it's good to be single?"
“…”
Huo Zhuge pursed his lips, looked at him with resentment, and his chest rose and fell twice. Finally, he turned his head, ignored him, and said to himself:
"If we are stronger than them, they will be timid and will not easily go to explore even if they find the location of the snake spirit and scorpion spirit."
"Even if we catch Li Chu, he may not be useful to us. Things will be very tricky."
"But now that we have lost, it will be different. They will definitely act bolder... Then, we only need to follow their whereabouts to find the location of the snake spirit and the scorpion spirit."
“And the snake spirit and scorpion spirit have been operating in this second-level secret realm for hundreds of years. Their strength must not be underestimated. While they are fighting each other, we may be able to reap the benefits!”
"But..." King Jiangnan asked, "He has clairvoyance and super hearing. How can we follow them?"
"His clairvoyance can't see through everything, and his superb hearing can only judge by the sound of footsteps." Huo Zhuge smiled confidently: "I just happen to have a good idea."
“…”
After he finished explaining his plan with great excitement, King Jiangnan also revealed a satisfied smile, and even Venerable Xuan Ge nodded in approval, which was rare.
"Not bad, you do have some brains."
The three of them looked at each other and laughed confidently at the same time.
“Hahahahahaha.”
…
"No, no, he must have discovered us!"
The snake spirit slid back and forth in the shadows in panic, its face turning pale with fear.
"No way?" Scorpion Spirit frowned and said, "Clairvoyance and super hearing are not clairvoyance and clairaudience, how can they be so magical?"
"But the ability he displayed is not ordinary clairvoyance at all!"
The snake spirit stared at him and said, "That terrifying black flame, and that terrifying ability to make people disappear with just one glance... If you were to face him, could you escape?"
Scorpion Spirit scratched his head and said, "Relax, they can't find this place."
Before he finished speaking, three figures suddenly appeared on the mirror. Judging from the scenery around them, they were clearly very close to this place.
"Uh..." A trace of cold sweat dripped down the scorpion spirit's forehead. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I was just passing by. I must have been just passing by."
Before he finished speaking, Li Chu raised his hand and pointed at him! "..." Scorpion Spirit wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said quickly, "So what if he knows we are here? I'm afraid he won't come!"
"Haven't we already made perfect arrangements to target the abilities of the seven immortal gourd seeds? No matter which one comes in, there will be special traps to target him, ensuring that he can't leave!"
"Please stop talking."
The snake spirit wished that this crow's mouth would shut up immediately.
…
On the southwest side of the second level secret realm, there is an inland sea.
That’s right, the sea.
There is a vast expanse of blue sea, with an isolated island hanging in the center. The island is divided into two parts, a large island and a small island touching each other.
Shaped like a gourd.
Li Chu stood on the shore, pointed at Hulu Island over there, and said with certainty: "The Snake Spirit and Scorpion Spirit are under that island."
"They dug an underground palace under the island and used the upper seawater to block the view and sound. Thanks to my powerful hearing ability, I was able to hear the sound under the sea."
Hear the sound beneath the sea...
Duan Baipao muttered to himself, "Is this the Wind-Earing Skill?" The wind can't get through.
This is a bit like the legendary immortal method of seeing from heaven and hearing from earth...
No matter where you hide, no matter what sound you make, as long as the caster wants to hear it, you will never escape.
He didn't hesitate and said, "Then let's go over there quickly."
The three of them came prepared. They had found a huge gourd and cut it in half to use as a boat. They also found two wooden sticks to make paddles, so it was no problem to cross the calm waters.
Just as he was about to board the ship, Li Chu heard another sound.
He suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait a moment."
He thought for a moment and said, "They have set up traps on that island that are specifically designed to target the abilities of the Immortal Gourd Seeds. If you go over there... you might be in danger."
"What's the meaning?"
Zhan Liuming keenly discovered that he was talking about "you" instead of "us".
Li Chu said frankly: "Why don't I go there myself?"
"This..." Duan Baipao frowned: "It's not a good idea, right? If we go together, it will be dangerous, and you will go alone..."
"I have a way to break their trap."
Duan Baipao stared at Li Chu's calm and confident eyes for a while, then nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I believe you."
Li Chu nodded and said goodbye, then rowed the boat across the sea alone.
Slowly, we arrived at the Hulu Island.
…
"Strange, why did he come alone?"
The snake spirit stared at the figure in the mirror and spoke in confusion.
"Isn't that good? If they come in groups, it will be hard to deal with them. If they come one by one, isn't that like Calabash Brothers saving Grandpa? Hehe."
The Scorpion Spirit grinned grimly.
The snake spirit looked at him strangely: "What does Calabash Boy save Grandpa mean?"
"I don't know either. Anyway, they are all here to die." Scorpion Spirit scratched his head and said casually.
"I hope so..." Snake Spirit said, "I don't know if he can find the entrance to this underground palace."
"I'm just worried that he won't be able to find it." The Scorpion Spirit chuckled twice, "Our underground palace is as solid as a rock. I want to see how strong he is to break in!"
"Wait…what is he doing?"
The snake spirit was suddenly startled.
The Scorpion Spirit was also stunned when he looked at the figure in the mirror.
…
Li Chu always poured his spiritual power into his ears, listening to the sounds below the island.
Until he set foot on the island.
"I shouldn't look for any entrance..." he thought.
He had witnessed the gourd baby saving his grandfather before. In the goblin's cave, there were swamps, magic mirrors, poisoned wine, black ice...all kinds of conspiracies and traps that were hard to guard against.
“Instead of breaking into their lair, it’s better to force them out.”
Li Chu stood on the island with his arms open.
Transfer all the spiritual power of the body from the ears back to the eyes, and activate the terrifying energy contained in the immortal body.
A white light gradually appeared in his eyes.
The white and tender body of the fairy gourd slowly rose into the air.
I'm just a little embarrassed.
It's going to destroy the environment.
call out--
Where the water is slightly rippled, there is a light in the sky like thunder.
"From now on... let Huludao feel the pain..."
boom--
Sorry, the updates may be unstable recently. I will go to Guangzhou to attend a good friend's wedding in the next two days. I will take the opportunity to get together with my classmates. After all, I will return to my hometown in Northeast China in a while, and I may not see them again for a long time.
Since I started writing novels, I haven’t been out for a long time, rarely meet up with people, and basically spend the whole day in the house typing or sleeping (except for frequent visits to the hospital). This is the first time I’ve traveled far away.
The second volume is about to end. The story of the third volume is the kind I wanted to write from the beginning. I am very excited just thinking about it. I am a little nervous when I start writing. I should wait for these few days to pass before I can calm down and write.
I'm considering whether to write a separate chapter after the end of a volume to summarize and sort out my writing experience. I feel like those big-name authors often do this... but I'm also worried that I might write too many separate chapters...
