Chapter 273: Wei Mubai, caught in a dilemma, resolutely went to his death...
Wei Mubai, who was determined to die, was surrounded by an endless swarm of strangler snakes the moment he entered the forbidden area.
He immediately used his finger as a sword, and the sword energy swept across the surroundings. In an instant, wherever the sword energy passed, the snakes were chopped into pieces like fallen leaves swept by autumn wind, and turned into wisps of withered yellow snake-shaped grass, floating all over the sky.
Surprisingly, the strangler snakes that had no reaction to Xu Hui's sword energy had no chance of resistance when faced with Wei Mubai's ethereal roots.
But the poisonous gas they emitted still had an effect on Wei Mubai, and soon, bruises appeared on his skin.
Wei Mubai immediately rushed towards the source. He had already recognized that these were stranglers. This kind of scourge should be dealt with as soon as possible.
Spiritual energy surged around him, and his aura was as powerful as an abyss, transforming into extremely sharp sword energy. With him as the center, circles of sword energy waves formed.
Wherever the sword energy passed, it silently crushed all the strangler snakes into pieces, turning them into flying grass debris.
The sword wind swept up the blood-stained grass debris, forming extreme waves in the air, strange and magnificent.
The entire space seemed to be shrouded in a thick haze, becoming hazy, dark, and strange.
Wei Mubai's figure appeared and disappeared in this evil atmosphere, like a cold-blooded and ruthless god of death, leaving only death and silence wherever he passed.
However, no matter how many people he killed, the number of strangler snakes did not decrease at all, and they continued to emerge impatiently.
Wei Mubai frowned slightly, and a hint of worry arose in his heart.
He found it difficult to deal with these snakes, and Xu Hui would probably have an even harder time.
He did not miss the effect of the ethereal roots, but Xu Hui did not, and perhaps he could not deal with them at all.
If possible, Xu Hui would definitely do her utmost to wipe out the strangler, instead of being so calm as it is now.
His spiritual awareness expanded infinitely, but he couldn't find any figure other than himself.
This means that either Xu Hui was not in this area and did not have a conflict with the strangler;
Either she was already trapped by the siege of the stranglers, but had found a hiding place for the time being;
As for the last possibility, Wei Mubai didn't dare to think about it too deeply.
Xu Hui will not die! She will definitely hold on until the moment he arrives!
He thought firmly, but his expression became more solemn, and his hands' movements became more fierce. More and more strangler snakes turned into fragments under his attacks.
Finally, after several hours of killing, he arrived above the swamp.
At this time, the water level here has dropped significantly, but the rich dark red color on the water surface almost covers the water area below, making it impossible to determine whether it has completely turned dark red.
After a brief thought, Wei Mubai summoned all his spiritual power, "A Thousand Miles of Ice!"
In an instant, the sky and the earth suddenly became cold, the temperature dropped sharply, and endless frosty air quickly spread out from him.
Layers of fog, mixed with tiny ice crystals, spread over the sky above the marshland. They quickly condensed and turned into snowflakes dancing in the sky, covering the entire sky.
These snowflakes did not fall to the ground, but quickly formed a thick and transparent ice wall in the air, completely blocking the sky above the swamp.
At the same time, the water surface began to change dramatically. The dark red blood-like water quickly froze, extending from the water surface to the underwater. In a blink of an eye, it was completely covered by ice.
All the snake grasses were sealed under the ice and could no longer grow.
As for the remaining stranglers, they turned into sculptures, frozen on the ice.
At this moment, the entire marshland turned into a world of ice and snow covered in silver.
Wei Mubai only took a glance, and immediately the sword energy vibrated out, strangling all the remaining fish that had escaped the net, and then followed the faint breath.
The connection between him and Xu Hui did not recover after he entered the burial ground, but he relied on his intuition and continued to move in the right direction, getting closer to Xu Hui little by little.
In order to ensure that no possible clues were missed, Wei Mubai did not fly very fast and searched extremely carefully.
A few days later, he suddenly stopped on a piece of land.
There are obvious signs of fighting here!
Wei Mubai's eyes lit up instantly, and he began to search more carefully. When he found a specific location, he sank into the ground without hesitation.
Soon, he discovered a Leixin stone mine and entered a narrow gap by intuition.
"It's a formation!" Wei Mubai was overjoyed. The familiar formation method was exactly what he had taught Xu Hui.
He immediately raised his hand and successively unlocked three defensive formations, finally seeing the situation inside clearly.
However, to his disappointment, Xu Hui was not there. Beneath these layers of protection, there was only a jade carving, an ordinary one without any special effects.
But Wei Mubai was greatly shocked after just one look.
The jade carving was lifelike, with delicate and vivid features, and it was exactly his appearance.
Although the carving technique was a little immature and unfamiliar, the emotion poured into it made him feel moved and his heart surge.
Especially, the farewell love letter embroidered on the hem of the clothes!
Wei Mubai's heart trembled, he picked it up carefully, and read it over and over again intently, engraving every word and every sentence deeply in his heart, letting the deep affection conveyed by the words integrate into the depths of his soul!
"Ahui!" He called softly, but his voice was choked with sobs.
"Ahui!" This time, his call was particularly solemn and resolute, as if he was declaring war on fate.
Wei Mubai's eyes were sparkling, rippling with layer upon layer of deep affection. His chest heaved violently, and his breathing was rapid and heavy, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
He carefully placed the jade figurine into the other dimension. As long as his soul was immortal, this special confession letter would never be harmed.
No, even if his soul disappears, the jade figurine will be safe and sound in the other dimension, forever proving the indestructible love between the two!
Wei Mubai used powerful magic to seal the other dimension layer by layer to protect the treasure that was most precious to him.
After doing all this, he continued his journey to find Xu Hui. This time, he was not wandering aimlessly, but had a clear goal - to track the breath of the strangler.
Xu Hui placed the jade figurine in the Leixin Stone Mine and protected it with layers of protection, indicating that this was a farewell she left for him.
There is no doubt that Xu Hui is in danger, and it is a major threat to her life and death!
This place is very close to the waters of the strangler snake and there are no other strange beasts, so the danger is undoubtedly brought by the strangler snake.
But he had just frozen the entire area of water and killed most of the stranglers.
If Xu Hui was nearby, she would definitely notice it and come out to meet him.
But Xu Hui has not come out yet, which means she has already left this area. According to the characteristics of the strangler, it will definitely chase Xu Hui.
So, in addition to the group that was frozen by him, there must be a large group of stranglers wandering around, and the place where they are is where Xu Hui is hiding!
So Wei Mubai went after the poisonous gas left by the strangler without hesitation.
After flying for several days, he directly entered the territory of the bird of prey. The scene before him was so shocking that even the knowledgeable Wei Mubai couldn't help but feel shocked.
Countless huge tornadoes, like bottomless whirlpools, sucked in everything around them. The power was so great that Wei Mubai was almost sucked in.
The dark brown poisonous gas, as thick as ink, was heavier than the night. It swirled and tumbled wildly with the tornado, ferocious and weird, spreading and condensing infinitely in the air.
There was not a trace of light in the sky, as if even the sunlight was swallowed up by the endless darkness and poisonous gas.
On the ground, the sparsely visible dead trees and strange rocks were corroded beyond recognition by the poisonous gas, and the surface was covered with a layer of strange crystals, flashing an ominous light.
Occasionally, a more violent hurricane would blow by, sweeping up everything on the ground, along with the crystals, into the tornado, turning them into nothingness.
Even for a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, if he stays in such a harsh environment for a long time, his cultivation will be severely damaged and he may even face the risk of physical collapse.
Xu Hui is only in the out-of-body stage, which is undoubtedly more dangerous.
Wei Mubai stood at the edge of the storm, his clothes rustling in the strong wind, his eyes full of anxiety and worry.
Xu Hui must be suffering in there. He even suspected that she was caught in this powerful tornado and couldn't escape.
With the powerful whirlpool and the terrifying poisonous gas, it must be very difficult for Xu Hui to hold on. No, I can't wait any longer!
If he was a second slower, Xu Huidu’s life might be in danger at any time!
Wei Mubai rushed into the center of the vortex without hesitation. In such an environment, he could not sense anything, so he would just look for them one by one, and he would find them sooner or later!
As soon as he entered the vortex, he was instantly surrounded by an unprecedented pulling sensation, as if countless huge hands were trying to tear his body apart.
At the same time, the dark brown poisonous gas attacked him quickly like a greedy hungry wolf, corroding every inch of his skin and every bit of his spiritual power.
He used his spiritual power to travel throughout his body, trying to drive away these deadly toxins, but their destructive speed was far beyond his imagination.
He could only allocate half of his spiritual power to form a protective shield around his body to prevent the poison from entering.
But soon, the protective shield was stained with a layer of gray substance, and the evil spirit completely ignored the rejection of spiritual power and penetrated into it.
If Wei Mubai didn't want his body and soul to be contaminated, he could only disperse the protective shield.
But if he did so, half of his cultivation would be gone, and it would only become more difficult to survive in the vortex.
Evil spirits are like maggots on the tarsal bone. They cannot be touched. But if they are eliminated, a lot of spiritual energy will be consumed. When the spiritual energy is reduced, he can't even get out of the tornado.
For a moment, Wei Mubai was in a dilemma, with no way out.
But he did not hesitate at all. He followed the rotation of the whirlpool and moved flexibly in it, looking for Xu Hui's trace, without caring about the danger he might encounter.
Wei Mubai's eyes were sharp, not missing any possible corner.
He didn't find Xu Hui in the first tornado, so he wanted to rush out immediately, but found that it was a hundred times more difficult than he had imagined.
With half of his spiritual power missing, it was difficult for him to resist the power of the vortex. Every time he tried to rush out, his strength suddenly dropped halfway, as if an invisible force was suppressing him.
Wei Mubai's face darkened and he felt extremely anxious.
Xu Hui is still waiting for him, he must not be trapped here!
