The land in front of the city gate was relatively flat. Ah Zhu rode on the back of the goldfish and flew far away. But Xia Xiao was still there. He would go over, but not now. The blue fish was controlled and turned around to pull out the invisible spike, but another spike fell, causing it to scream in pain.

Blue Fish hit the ground with his flat head and looked at Xia Xiao. There was no complaint in his eyes, only the desire to let Xia Xiao leave. But if he left now, he would not be Xia Xiao!

"We are going back together today, no one can be left behind!"

Blue Fish was influenced by Xiao Yu, so he protected Xia Xiao. Hearing his words, he was inevitably moved, but he couldn't fight against the black energy. When it wanted to use its head to knock Xia Xiao away, a bright scarlet light appeared outside of Xia Xiao's body. The machete in his hand broke through the heavy bandages, showing a murderous look.

The city wall was full of people. When they looked at him, Xia Xiao suddenly leaped out and chopped off two spikes.

The spike was invisible, and now it broke into pieces under the scarlet light, like a broken glass column. When it broke with a bang, Lan Yu was surprised. The power in the spike was not something Xia Xiao could break at the moment. Xia Xiao also realized that the black energy was still testing him.

Biting the Pudao, Xia Xiao formed seals with both hands and retreated, tearing a hole in the contract space. Lan Yu saw it and went in immediately without delay. The black gas did not chase, and Lan Yu went. She just floated to Xia Xiao's side and made a faint sound.

"I overestimated you."

There was a chill in the words, but it was a female voice. Xia Xiao's first reaction was the woman in the dark, but as long as he recalled it a little, he felt that they were not alike.

A palpitation suddenly rushed into Xia Xiao's heart, causing him to frown. He wanted to retreat, but he had no strength to support himself. Suddenly, the sky and the earth darkened in an instant, and countless dark clouds began to gather from all directions and ran to this sky.

Xia Xiao's eyes were also filled with dark clouds, and then became dark, as if stained with ink. This was different from the stone bead necklace and the prince he saw in the royal court. The darkness in Xia Xiao's eyes at this time came from the lines on his left arm.

This pattern is the night pattern in the day and night pattern, and the shining light breaks through the sleeves on its own. It activates itself when Xia Xiao wants to retreat but has no way to do so.

There was no time to think about why this happened. Xia Xiao turned around like a ghost, his body was light, his toes touched the ground, and his body shot out with the wind.

The black energy was invisible and froze in place for a moment. In that one second, Xia Xiao distanced himself from it. Although it was only a hundred meters, it was enough for Xia Xiao to escape the fatal blow.

Xia Xiao looked at the broadsword in his hand, and saw a day pattern on it. Although it was under the scarlet light, he could feel it. The day pattern was originally engraved on Shu Shuang's right arm, so how could it appear on the broadsword? Xia Xiao was puzzled, but he didn't have time to worry about it. The black air behind him caught up with him again in an instant.

This dangerous aura made Xia Xiao feel difficult. She started to get serious and stopped testing. Perhaps she had already realized that she, a so-called person who came from afar with complete five elements, was no match for her!

The air behind him was moved, like silver light moving clockwise. Xia Xiao did not look back, the darkness in his lens gradually disappeared, but the dark clouds in the sky were still there. Therefore, the firelight seemed brighter.

The flames under the talisman formation followed the strong wind and rushed to the ground like a cannonball, blasting the soil. Although it was still pierced by the black air, the falling black ice talisman formation once again blocked her attack.

At the other end of Xia Xiao's gaze, Ju Mang Huo Dou and Xiao Yu urged the pure vitality in their bodies to continuously take over the talisman array. Along the way, the talisman array had never been used. Therefore, today's talisman array was enough, and it depended on how much vitality they could take over.

"hurry up!"

The talisman array in the sky kept falling, first there was a tall wooden wall, and then there were layers of ice shields. They all formed a complete circle, isolating Xia Xiao from the black air. And Ah Zhu and the three beasts stood in the center. But they knew that they were far from enough to stop the opponent as they kept taking over the talisman array!

Facing the fire array that was all for attack, and the quenching fire, the black gas kept moving forward. These wooden walls and ice shields could not stop her at all. When she was about to rush into the sky and launch a surprise attack from above, it was already covered with arrays. Although Xia Xiao's strength was not strong, she was careful and considered things carefully.

"Five minutes have passed, and there's still half the time left!"

Xia Xiao ran over with his back to the ice shield, his hat blown away by the wind. He plunged the machete into the ground, and slammed his hands on the scroll array. The vitality in his body, which had been ready for a long time, poured out like a mountain torrent, and began to try to take over the array. Now he had to hold on for five minutes. As long as the darkness didn't come, it wouldn't be a difficult task!

"Can you make it through?"

Ju Mang was a little worried, but Xia Xiao frowned and said:

"The Southern Merchants are good at fighting and will not ignore a fight. If she dares to shroud us in darkness, it will be a declaration of war, telling the Southern Merchants that their old enemy is coming. Although the prince is in the same group with her, other strong men will not sit idly by. As long as someone stands up and delays the time for even a second, we will gain something!"

The most powerful cultivator in Daxia is at the level of Zunjing Shengguo, but Nanshang, as the strongest empire in the Great Wilderness, has the most powerful cultivator at the level of Zunjing Qulun!

Such a strong person could delay for a full minute even in the darkness. From this point of view, the darkness seemed very strong. They were indeed strong, but sooner or later they would be crushed and annihilated by Xia Xiao!

On the city wall, countless southern merchants raised their arms and blocked the heat waves released by the flames. Sparks from the heat waves ignited Xia Xiao's cuffs. Some strong men gathered together, standing together in their eyes, with the intention of taking action. This kind of battle is really fierce, but I don't know the situation.

"Who's fighting who?"

"I don't know, not even the number of people. People on the street said earlier that a man summoned six contracted beasts one after another. How is that possible?"

“It’s really exaggerated.”

"This is no longer an exaggeration. Have the people in the city started talking nonsense?"

Several experts talked about this and that, but they didn't come to a conclusion on whether to take action. Because in their eyes, there were at least eight people fighting.

Wind, wood and lightning, fire and molten lava, water and black ice, snow and wind, these are six people. The speed of using these talisman arrays is so fast, I am afraid there are talisman masters helping the warriors. And there must be more than one person attacking them. Those who can fight such opponents in the imperial capital must be famous strong men. How could they not know such strong men?

That's not right. How could these six warriors all be able to cast a talisman array? One or two would be enough, but such an astonishing number doesn't look like a talisman array cast by a warrior. These talisman arrays all have tens of thousands of patterns, and some even have fifty thousand or a hundred thousand patterns. This... doesn't make sense. Could it be that, as the people said before, there were only two people? But if they were talisman masters, where did the six contracted beasts come from?

While people were guessing, the flames burned the plains. The flames went up to the sky, like a fortress. Xia Xiao and the three beasts kept casting talismans, but they couldn't use up all the talismans in the scroll. Their faces were pale and ugly, but their vitality was exhausted, so they could only wait for the senior to come with the talisman.

Xia Xiao's current strength is at the peak of the young age of the Venerable Realm, and he could have tried to break through to the Zhimao stage long ago. But he didn't do that, and instead deposited a lot of vitality in his body. This trip was dangerous, and he had to do this. Now it seems that this is indeed the right thing to do. But now, when the black gas was temporarily entangled, the ground showed great changes.

The wooden wall stood upright, the ice shield was behind it, there was a talisman array above, and molten lava flowed from time to time under the feet. The high temperature molten lava melted the surrounding rocks and soil. When the goldfish floated in the air and swung its tail, Ah Zhu was worried and at a loss. Xia Xiao had never shown such strength before, and when he showed it at this time, she realized the gap between herself and him. But looking at Xiaoyu's expression beside her, it seemed that everything was forced.

At the edge of the sparse lava, rocks drilled out of the ground and turned into countless monsters, and the grass and weeds were also changing. This was probably the real grass and trees were all enemies, but after Xia Xiao put away the scroll, he stepped on the ground. Countless lava columns rose two meters, crushing these guys and turning them into a pile of sand.

"Come again?"

Seeing that there were more rocks rising from the ground, Xia Xiao handed all the scrolls to Huodou and Jumang.

"When she comes towards me, you will detonate them."

"Don't want to live anymore?"

“Yes!”

Xia Xiao pulled out the machete that was stuck in the ground, a hint of stubbornness on his face.

"That's why we have to detonate them. My life is in your hands."

"You bastard, you really know how to order people around."

Huodou said, and Jumang was on top and on the bottom, relying on their perception of the wind and the molten lava on the ground, ready to respond to any sudden situation at any time. Xia Xiao, holding a broadsword, walked on the ground. There was molten lava on the ground, and the molten lava became a lake, but he danced alone on it, dancing a sad and solemn song.

With his feet turning, Xia Xiao chopped the rock monster in half with one knife. But the sound of breaking in his ears made him extremely worried. Looking at the place where the sound came from, the flames were pierced and the wooden wall was broken. The growing wooden wall blocked it again and again, but the growth rate was far slower than the destruction rate. Behind the wooden wall was an ice layer, but no matter how hard it was, it was pierced by a black air.

The ice broke and shattered all over the ground. The molten lava on the ground was rolled up and came towards Xia Xiao. The talisman arrays above his head fell one by one, but they were all pierced.

“Damn it!”

The talisman array was broken, which was expected. But it broke too quickly, like a thin biscuit pierced by a needle. The biscuit, which was roughly three colors, cracked under the fast-moving needle, covering the molten lava on the ground with a layer of fluorescence. But on the other side of the needle was Xia Xiao.

The broadsword was pointed in front of him, and Xia Xiao's pupils trembled violently due to the severe impact. Ten minutes were almost up, and Senior Hu Bugui should be there soon!

In the tunnel of the talisman array, Hu Bugui's sleeves rustled in the wind, and his face trembled in the wind. But he faced forward, and only wanted to reach his destination as soon as possible. Last time he arrived too late, and Shu Shuang died. This time, no matter who it was, they could not take away Xia Xiao and Azhu's lives again.

With the protection amulet that the senior sister put in Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu's body, they could survive these ten minutes no matter what. But Hu Bugui didn't want them to suffer any more. They had suffered a lot along the way.

He was an old man who could barely walk steadily, but now he transformed into a black dragon. Although he was old, he could let out a long roar, which was heard to the land outside the capital of Nan Shang Empire one step faster than him.
