Holding the machete high in his hand, Xia Xiao chopped the rattlesnake in half with one stroke. Its sturdy body bounced twice, twisting fiercely, and its head opened wide, trying to bite Xia Xiao, but he knocked it away with one stroke.
Then, Yang Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, twitched and screamed, and ancient characters appeared on his chest.
"ah--"
The veins on Yang Xing's forehead and neck bulged, and his face instantly turned red. His body seemed to be torn apart, and the earth energy he controlled was gradually stripped away. That feeling was like being torn off his arm alive, and the pain was unbearable.
The panting sound was chaotic, and Ke Qing stared at Xia Xiao with fierce eyes. He didn't expect Xia Xiao to really kill him. Damn it! Damn it!
The inscription on the chest began to shake, causing the vitality to be in chaos. Zhu Da and the other three were shocked. This aura was beyond the young age of the Venerable Realm. If Yang Xing wanted, it would explode at any time and they would all die. But looking at Xia Xiao, he was still standing there, not surprised at all, and extremely calm. He seemed to know that Yang Xing did not dare to explode himself, he did not have the courage.
Bang--
The circular inscription cracked, and then a misty vitality tree appeared behind him. The tree was only one meter tall, but its bark was like rock, indestructible. At this time, the rocks fell in unison, just like the bark of the Divine Power Tree before.
"ah--"
Amid the screams, the guest's face cracked, and the earth energy that had left it flashed. With a loud bang, a wave of air spread out, causing everyone to lie down. But there was nothing around that could destroy it, because it was all destroyed by Shu Shuang's power.
The vitality tree was broken, and the guest official collapsed on the ground, his breath weak, he was useless!
Xia Xiao, who was protecting Shu Shuang, swung his machete to cut through the air wave, and then helped Shu Shuang up. Although the latter had used that power, unlike the previous two times, he did not faint, but he was also very weak.
Only the last wisp of blue energy emanating from her right eye remained. As it dissipated, the hatred in Shu Shuang's eyes gradually returned to its usual gentleness.
"Sit down for a while."
Shu Shuang sat on the bark of the ancient Shenwei tree, watching Xia Xiao take out a painkiller from his backpack and swallow it. Pointing his sword at the ground, Xia Xiao was surrounded by a biting cold air.
"You all must die!"
If Xia Xiao had said this five minutes ago, they would have only laughed at him, thinking that he was ignorant of the world. But now the four of them looked at each other, not knowing whether to attack or retreat. In fact, they knew in their hearts that from the moment they appeared, they had no way out. But can they win? Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang just defeated a young master in the Venerable Realm in less than a minute, and they were both injured!
As the core member of the team, Zhu Da sensed the fear of the other three and deliberately raised his courage and said:
"Xia Xiao, stop playing tricks on me. This damn girl has already used up all her strength. What else do you have?"
After saying that, the rock claw bear beside Zhu Da put his hands on the ground, picked up two rocks several meters in size, and threw them at Xia Xiao.
"snort!"
In the gap between two rocks, Xia Xiao's eyes were cold and murderous. He gathered all his energy into his sword and slashed out two scarlet air waves, causing the rock that was coming at high speed to stop in the air and break into four pieces.
"Cry——"
A loud and manic roar ordered Zhu Da and the other three who were preparing to attack to stay where they were. The fluctuations in this roar had reached the level of a fourth-order wild beast!
“Hurry up!”
Without the Five Elements restraint, the four of them would have difficulty defeating the fourth-level wild beast, so they shot at Xia Xiao. However, the wind from their side made it difficult for them to move.
Zhu Da felt that it was not good. There was wood energy in the wind, and the wild beasts that came were wood energy, which was just right to restrain his rock claw bear. It seemed that today's battle was hanging!
Looking at Xia Xiao again, the latter was so calm and terrified, as if he had expected everything. Could it be that he ran here in the first place because there were wild beasts here? Impossible! Zhu Da immediately denied it. Xia Xiao was just in the Condensation Realm. If he had that ability, then his Zhu family would really be doomed.
With steady steps, Xia Xiao dodged Zhu Da's attack, and then Manager Bin launched a palm strike, but it was blown away by the strong wind.
Manager Bin felt a chill in his heart. He was only one meter away from Xia Xiao. As long as he raised his broadsword, he could kill him right here. But this gust of wind was like a dragon beast, blowing recklessly in this area where the trees were flattened. Xia Xiao had to stick his broadsword into the ground to avoid being blown away.
"Cry——"
It roared like an eagle or a lion, and fled away. On an ancient and majestic tree, a brave griffin was seen grabbing the tree with all four claws, looking towards this side with a sharp gaze. The cold eyes gave everyone a fear from the bottom of their hearts.
When the wind stopped, Xia Xiao stood up and ran with Shu Shuang three kilometers away. There were trees and shelters over there, so it was safer.
Damn it!
Zhu Da cursed, and immediately burst out with vitality, and flashed behind Xia Xiao in the blink of an eye. He had the magnificent vitality of a young man in the Venerable Realm, and Xia Xiao could not outrun him at all. But when Zhu Da punched, Xia Xiao immediately turned around and blocked in front of him with a broadsword.
The narrow Pudao was harder than it looked. Although it couldn't stop Zhu Da's Qi, it could block the force of his fist. People who practiced earth Qi were best at strength, so they couldn't be directly hit by it, or they would be almost killed like in Longgang. Now the place was full of dangers, Xia Xiao had to make sure he could move, and getting hurt was inevitable!
Boom——
The energy hit the air, making a muffled sound. In the scarlet blade light, the energy shocked Xia Xiao so much that he spit out blood and then flew backwards a hundred meters.
Even if Xia Xiao blocked this punch, he would still be seriously injured. But before Zhu Da could rejoice, a pair of cold eyes flashed behind him.
"ah--"
Zhu Da felt a chill on his back and screamed. When he turned around, the three-meter-tall griffin blew a strong wind, causing Zhu Da to step back a few steps. In its front claws, Manager Bin and the strong Ningzhong from Linxi City had been pierced through the chest.
With his teeth clenched, Zhu Da knew he was in trouble. This fourth-order griffin was best at speed and was his nemesis. But he was about to complete the mission, so how could he be hurt by it?
"Cry——"
The powerful wings flapped, and the wind rose like a sword, but Zhu Da held his arms in front of him, and a heavy energy blocked it.
The world was in chaos, with the earth element and wind fighting for dominance. Shu Shuang rushed towards Xia Xiao, but the ones who really suffered were Manager Bin and the strong man from Linxi City. Their faces were scratched by the wind, and blood was spilled. When the griffin was angry, its claws clenched violently, causing their already broken bodies to completely lose vitality.
Manager Bin's cloudy eyes quickly dimmed. He had a heart of revenge, but he didn't expect Xia Xiao to be alive while he himself died. Thrown to the ground, the griffin hovered in the air, and then suddenly stabbed Zhu Da with its extremely sharp beak.
In the wind, Zhu Da slapped the ground with both hands.
"Rockwall!"
Five hundred meters away, Shu Shuang helped Xia Xiao lean against a tree and fed him medicine.
"It's pain-relieving."
Shu Shuang panicked, her hands trembling, but at least they were out of danger at this distance. The griffin would not come to their side before defeating Zhu Da, because Zhu Da was the strongest. When wild beasts meet people, they usually go to the strongest first!
Xia Xiao moved his body and looked at the flat ground where a mud wall emerged.
The earth wall was thick and seemed solid, but the griffin easily smashed it. Zhuda held its beak with both arms and retreated a hundred meters. The next moment, the griffin's body was knocked away and rolled several times on the ground, throwing tree roots and soil into the air.
Zhu Da's arms were bleeding, and over there he saw the Rock Claw Bear, who shared the same thoughts as him.
"Hold him first!"
After saying that, Vulture replaced Rock Claw Bear, and the latter followed Zhu Da and came towards Xia Xiao.
Shu Shuang saw this and was about to step forward, but Xia Xiao grabbed her wrist.
Shaking his head, Xia Xiao signaled Shu Shuang not to be anxious. A proud and arrogant wild beast like the griffin would not let its enemy escape its sight.
Sure enough, the griffin shook off the dirt on its head, and the next moment it appeared in front of Zhuda and knocked him back. Then its wings fanned out a fierce wind, suppressing the two men and two beasts. They kept retreating, knocking away the barks that were facing each other, and pressed against the roots of the ancient tree of divine power.
In the wind, Zhu Da and the people of Linxi City had their clothes torn and it was difficult for them to open their eyes. They could only use their vitality to wrap themselves up to be safe.
When wild beasts and humans of the same level meet, only the five elements can defeat the former. But now Zhu Da is restrained, and the strong man of Linxi City has just entered the realm of honor, and is still in the wood element, so it is impossible to determine the winner in a short time.
"grown ups!"
The people from Linxi City handed over a bag. Zhu Da took it and shouted:
"Work together!"
The two forces collided and competed with the strong wind.
The ground was blown up, and the wind howled. Even if the griffin was strong, it could not defeat the two young masters of the Venerable Realm.
The collision of vitality was devastating, and then turned into a wave of air, spreading violently. Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang hid behind the tree and let it uproot them.
The broadsword was inserted into the ground, Xia Xiao hugged Shu Shuang tightly, and slid a hundred meters on the ground. When they hit the next tree, they climbed up and hid behind it.
The wind dragon roared and passed by, hitting the tree trunk with scars. Holding Shu Shuang tightly, Xia Xiao's sleeves were torn. The battle between the fourth-level wild beast and the powerful master of the noble realm was indeed extraordinary. Xia Xiao was unable to influence it now and could only wait for their battle to end.
Now I think of it, I have to thank Zhu Da. Without his punch, I would never have escaped the griffin's attack range.
"Cry——"
The griffin screamed in grief and anger, which was different from the previous angry warning. When the wind died down, Xia Xiao stuck his head out and saw several scars torn on the griffin's side, with dark green anesthetic on them.
Since applying anesthetic to the claws of the rock claw bear is a good idea!
"Shu Shuang, I need to recover my strength for a while, so be ready to wake me up anytime!"
After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he crossed his legs and formed the "He" seal.
Shu Shuang stood beside him, holding a broadsword in hand, hiding behind a tree, watching the battle not far away. Faced with the intrusion of humans, the griffin of noble blood became angry and its offensive continued to intensify.
Shu Shuang was very careful, fearing that the griffin would be attracted. They had to wait until both sides were injured or the griffin was defeated before they could take action. But her vision gradually blurred, and she even felt dizzy.
No, no! Xia Xiao is recovering now, and he must be protected. Thinking of this, Shu Shuang looked at Pu Dao and made a bold decision!
