In the evening, when it was getting dark, the thick fog that everyone was familiar with came again, covering the dense forest into a vast sea of clouds.
Now is the final stage of the selection of Wanling Valley. Some people who don't have enough points are eager to find contestants weaker than themselves, but they are afraid of being eliminated by the strong ones. In the blink of an eye, it's the long night again. They dare not move on, but they are angry in their hearts. However, no matter how big their temper is, it will be polished by the thick fog, and finally hidden in their hearts, swallowed bit by bit.
In the fog, everything was silent, as if it had disappeared from the world. Above the thick fog, the tops of three high mountains stood like a sea of clouds, forming a triangle, like a huge logo. In the middle, in a low-lying depression, four people stood on tree branches, restraining their breath.
“Here it comes!”
The man next to Si Ying closed his eyes and saw Xia Xiao and the others through the vision of the contracted beast. They passed through the thick fog at an extremely fast speed and shot towards this side.
"Disperse!"
After Si Ying finished speaking, the three people around him left quickly.
Now the three people from Sanshan blocked Xia Xiao and the others' retreat. Even if they didn't want to enter the talisman formation, they had no choice but to go in.
Amid Si Ying's sinister smile, Zhu Tiankang moved swiftly to the position where Xia Xiao had walked before.
Um?
Zhu Tiankang, who was hiding behind a tree, had his eyes fixed, felt a chill on his back, and had goose bumps all over his body. He felt someone was staring at him. It was an extremely strong force coming from Xia Xiao and the others' position, but their strength, even if it had improved in the ruins, should not be like this. Could it be... a huge breakthrough?
Zhu Tiankang was a little surprised, but he clenched his fists, thinking that he could not let Xia Xiao go no matter what.
There is only less than a month left for the Wanling Valley screening. If Xia Xiao escapes again this time, they will have no chance. So, this time, they must succeed!
Zhu Tiankang suddenly thought of his father. Before going to Wanling Valley, Zhu Heng also gave some instructions, but he only asked him to obey Siying's orders. Now, he planned all this himself, and finally it was what you wanted, father!
As his heart beat violently, Si Ying also became excited. He stood on a tree and watched Xia Xiao approach the depression step by step.
"A little closer, a little closer!"
Si Ying murmured to himself, wishing he could rush behind Xia Xiao and kick him. But Xia Xiao paused.
Xia Xiao, wearing a fog-proof arm armor, looked around and found the location of Siying. This location was too conspicuous, because only this slope could allow the latter to avoid the fog and see the scene of the depression. At this time, the two looked at each other, full of murderous intent.
For some reason, after only four days of not seeing each other, Si Ying already felt that Xia Xiao was very different from before, as if he had been reborn. From Xia Xiao's eyes, Si Ying felt a little bit of fear, but he still sat on the tree and stared at Xia Xiao. Su Huan and the others' tokens had been placed in the depression by himself. If Xia Xiao didn't want to go in, he could just wait. He had plenty of time now!
Xia Xiao might have obtained the treasure in the ruins. Si Ying frowned, wanting to end this long confrontation as soon as possible.
As soon as his hand fell, the machete and umbrella were nailed to the ground. Xia Xiao gave Si Ying a vicious look, glanced away, squatted down and tied the armor on his right leg. It was a little loose when he was rushing here. If he didn't fix it now, he would be out of time later.
Shu Shuang beside him looked into the depths of the depression where the most fog was, and could roughly see several human figures.
"They must be in there, not one less!"
Shu Shuang clenched her left fist, eager to try.
"Don't be nervous, it will definitely succeed. Their talisman array cannot withstand the wild pattern."
Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's right and left arms were without sleeves, exposed in the slightly cold mist. Xia Xiao glanced at his arms, feeling the power filling them, and was very satisfied.
"wait for me."
"Um!"
Shu Shuang drew his broadsword with both hands and glanced at Si Ying in the distance. Seeing that he was still there, he paid attention to the movements around him and was very cautious.
Seeing Xia Xiao sitting cross-legged, Si Ying was a little curious about what he was going to do.
The palms were spread out, and the flames suddenly gathered.
Si Ying swung his arm and shot it towards Xia Xiao, but Shu Shuang swept it away with a knife.
If it was somewhere else, Siying would definitely consider launching an attack. Even if Xia Xiao was pretending to be mysterious, his strength was not as good as his. But he and Shu Shuang were too close to the talisman formation, maybe he was trying to lure him over and then push him into the talisman formation.
Thinking of the power of this interlocking array, Si Ying stood still, and it was better to remain unchanged in the face of all changes. Xia Xiao was extremely cunning, so he had to be careful!
After Shu Shuang took the machete in his hand, Xia Xiaoshu relaxed his brows and entered the forest in his body. In order to prevent himself from being attacked when the two of them activated the wild pattern, he had to call Ju Mang out. But before that, he had to ask about Ju Mang's situation. Ju Mang, who had just woken up, didn't know how he was doing.
The forest was changing, not as peaceful as usual. In the howling wind, the trees twisted and the branches could touch the sky. In the air, the fallen leaves rustled, and lightning struck directly in the direction of the altar, causing Xia Xiao to speed up his run.
The forest no longer looked familiar, but Xia Xiao still stumbled to the altar.
The strong wind made it difficult for Xia Xiao to open his eyes. He squinted, stepped onto the ancient altar, and raised his head to look at the unfamiliar Ju Mang.
Even though he hadn't seen him for four months, Xia Xiao still remembered Ju Mang's appearance. This little guy had been chubby since he was young, like a ball of grass. He was still fat when he grew up, but now he was no longer the same as before.
What caught Xia Xiao's attention the most was the pair of wings that could stretch up to five meters. The wings were still leaf-like, but thinner than before, and densely packed like they were woven together with needles and thread. Under the wings, Ju Mang was extremely thin, without the big belly he had before, but with white skin like a human, and eight abdominal muscles that made him look particularly strong.
Stopping in front of Xia Xiao, Ju Mang's slender and sharp bird claws did not touch the ground, but continued to float.
Ju Mang, who used to be almost as tall as Xia Xiao, now needed Xia Xiao to look up. Ju Mang was only 1.7 meters tall when he swallowed the black gold leaf, but now he is 3 meters tall. His face has a distinct jawbone, thin but not weak, and his long black hair floats in the air, like seaweed in the sea, free and unrestrained.
"Hey, long time no see."
When Xia Xiao was lost in thought and repeatedly looked at Ju Mang, the latter took the initiative to greet him. His voice was very magnetic, like a real man, without the childishness of the past.
"Did you take hormones? You grew so tall?"
Hormones? Ju Mang didn't know what that was, but Xia Xiao always came up with a lot of new words.
"I wanted to be serious, but you messed it up."
"There are plenty of opportunities to show off. One will appear soon!"
Xia Xiao and Ju Mang were like brothers, the former watched the latter grow up little by little, and they understood each other's feelings. At this moment, they smiled at each other, and no matter what pain they had experienced during this period, it was thrown into the sky.
Ju Mang's pupils were green. After listening to Xia Xiao's brief explanation, they flashed with blazing flames and he said in a cold tone:
"Fuck him hard!"
Xia Xiao smiled and walked down the altar, and Ju Mang followed him.
After not seeing each other for four months, Xia Xiao thought that Ju Mang would change after his transformation, such as becoming more taciturn. But in fact, he is still the same Ju Mang. Neither his tone of voice nor his expression has changed. He just became more handsome!
Walking to the entrance of the forest, Xia Xiao looked back at Ju Mang.
"Be prepared, don't hold back your strength!"
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he disappeared. Ju Mang grinned like a romantic gentleman.
"How about it?"
When Shu Shuang asked, Xia Xiao nodded quickly.
"I'm glad you're okay."
Transformation has certain risks. Shu Shuang has always been afraid that Ju Mang’s transformation would fail, but he felt relieved only when he saw Xia Xiao’s expression.
“He’s changed a lot.”
Shu Shuang became excited and watched Xia Xiao make seals with his hands.
Si Ying, who was far away, was confused again. That was the spiritual contract handprint. Did Xia Xiao get kicked in the head by a donkey? Didn't he know that it would be dangerous to bind it without a spiritual contract?
Si Ying opened his eyes wide, and thought, "Let it end. It would be best if I die." But the next moment, a space behind Xia Xiao was torn open.
Si Ying opened his mouth wide. Xia Xiao had broken through the realm of the Supreme? How was that possible? And how could that wild beast be in human form? Si Ying's eyes were full of vitality. When he saw Ju Mang clearly, his heart trembled again. How could this guy still have a human face?
Although in the Wanling Valley, as long as one's strength reaches the young age of the Venerable Realm, the teacher can send the wild beasts prepared by him to the valley, but Xia Xiao should not have time to do that? And what level is this wild beast? It is said that the more bizarre the wild beast, the higher its level. Si Ying also knows many wild beasts, but he has never seen such an existence.
Ju Mang flew out of the contract space and rushed into the sky like an eagle.
Buzz——
The fog dissipated, revealing the damaged talisman array.
Ju Mang, who hit it, shook his wings and floated in the air.
"What is that?"
Ju Mang frowned, and circled in the sunlight after the mist had dispersed like a victorious eagle, except that his cry that resounded through the sky was missing.
Because of the thick fog, the seemingly dark night in Wanling Valley was actually afternoon outside. Therefore, Ju Mang, with the light on his head, was like a sacred beast in ancient legends, attracting the wild creatures in the three high mountains.
The Flame of the Sky stood on the top of the volcano, the Snow Eagle's unruly eyes lost some of their arrogance, and the slow-moving Stone Scorpion also appeared with the quicksand. They felt an extraordinary aura that suppressed them from the blood, forcing them to surrender and lie on the ground, not daring to move easily.
If other people saw their actions, they would be extremely shocked. They are the kings of Wanling Valley! But in Ju Mang's eyes, they are just a few livestock.
Speeding up, Ju Mang created wind in the air, driving away more fog, allowing the sun to shine on Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang. They looked up, their eyes full of pride. The little fat boy who was just learning to speak has now become like an eagle!
Boom boom
A thunder sounded, attracting countless people's attention.
The sea of clouds that had been broken open was covered with dark clouds, and thick silver lightning flashed through it, followed by a terrifying thunderclap. Then, a strong wind blew up. The previous sunshine disappeared, and the thunderclouds and strong winds made the trees extremely excited. This was the power that Ju Mang wanted to show, which could change the scene of heaven and earth in an instant!
