Killing God

Chapter 225 Siege

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, who had just walked into the cave and were still not far from the entrance of the cave, had only stepped into the dark place. They were shocked at the same time, and stopped in place. ± And outside of the land in front of them, the little black pig's head stared at the darkness in the depths of the cave, and his whole body was slightly lowered, his eyes pierced and staring at the side, actually posing a pair It's about to rush to the appearance of a battle.

Although they were psychologically prepared for the dangers that might be encountered when entering this cave, including all kinds of tyrannical monsters and enemies, they were surprised by the warning when they entered the cave, and seeing Xiao Hei’s appearance, The expressions are completely different from the expressions of the low-level monsters that came along these days. It is already a little cautious. Obviously, with its unusually keen sense, the enemy ahead is very powerful. Opponent.

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu looked at each other, and there was a haze in their hearts, but since they had made up their minds, naturally there was no reason to go back after hearing a beast roar at the entrance of this cave. Shen Shi took a deep breath, raised his right hand gently, and there was an extra talisman between his fingers, and Zhong Qingzhu also silently drew out the spirit sword, looking at the darkness ahead with a pale expression.

The darkness in the depths of the cave is unfathomable, like a pool of unfathomable water, even the edge does not know where it is. There seems to be no light in sight, and I don't know if there are cold eyes hidden deep in the darkness, watching them coldly.

Inside and outside the cave, on both sides of the darkness, the air seemed to become a little solidified, which made people feel nervous.

After a while, Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head and sniffed in the air a few times. There seemed to be a bit of surprise and confusion in his expression, but then his whole body seemed to relax, and then he turned his head and screamed at Shen Shi. A few times.

Shen Shi was startled, knelt down and touched Xiao Hei's head, then glanced at the darkness deep in the cave, and said to Zhong Qingzhu: "Xiao Hei said, the monster over there has retreated."

"Retired?" Zhong Qingzhu said in amazement.

There was also a puzzled expression on Shenshi's face, looking at the depths of the cave, frowning and saying: "It should be, strange. When ordinary monsters encounter this situation, they mostly attacked, and from Xiaohei's reaction just now Look, that monster is mostly a high-level monster, there is no reason to retreat."

Zhong Qingzhu slowly put away the spirit sword, a bit of thinking appeared in his eyes, walked to Shen Shi's side and thought for a while: "Does Xiao Hei know what kind of high-level monster it is?"

Shen Shi glanced at Xiao Hei, shook his head, and said, "It should be indistinguishable." After a pause, he groaned, "It has always been rare for a monster to retreat when it meets people. Maybe the low-level weak monsters will also meet. Some, but it is very rare in high-level monsters, unless it feels that its strength is too low for the two of us and shrinks..."

At this point, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu both shook their heads. Obviously, this possibility was too small. Then Zhong Qingzhu suddenly brightened his eyes and looked at Shen Shi. Shen Shi seemed to think of something at this time. Looking to her, her eyes were bright and bright, and she whispered:

"Or maybe... there is something in the cave that makes this monster beast more important than eating us!"

What can actually overwhelm the brutal and bloodthirsty instincts of monster beasts and make them give up the flesh and blood that might be their mouths? The answer seemed to be self-evident in Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu's eyes, and after a while, there was another eagerness in their eyes.

Zhong Qingzhu didn't say anything more, just simple but resolutely said: "Let's go."

Shen Shi nodded, turned around, and continued to step into the depths of the cave.

※※※

This time the journey seemed to be much smoother than when they first entered the cave. Along the cave passage which is not too large but not too small, the two of them walked all the way, without encountering any monsters blocking the way. . As for the unknown monster that was encountered near the entrance of the cave behind a shady screen, it seemed to have travelled quickly all the way to the depths of the cave, without the intention of turning around and paying attention to the two of them.

This cave does not look like it goes deep into the ground. Although the road in the cave has potholes and rocks everywhere, it is generally flat and seems to go deep into the mountain. And as they deepened, they gradually discovered that the cave was not completely pitch black. Sometimes, some shimmering stones set on the wall of the cave were seen, and there was also light from the gap between a certain stone. As well as the inadvertent breeze, it shows that the cave is not completely closed.

The eyesight of the cultivator is much better than that of the mortal, and with these little glimmers, although it is a little weak, it is still enough for Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu to see the road in the hole. As for Xiao Hei, it seems to be better than the two of them. It won, and walked freely, very easily, it seemed that this dark difficulty was not enough for it.

After walking in this way for about half an hour, just as Shen Shi was secretly surprised that the cave was a little deeper than he imagined, suddenly from a distance in front of the cave, there was a strange scream.

The voice sounded like a cry at first sound, but it was sharp and stern, and there was a feeling of shock and darkness. Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were both taken aback and stopped subconsciously.

The scream seemed to bring great anger and fierceness, echoing in this dark cave, echoing in the long corridor, Zhong Qingzhu listened for a moment, turned his head, and moved closer to the sinking stone. Whispered:

"It's the Iron Winged Black Scorpion."

Shen Shi nodded silently, took two steps forward, and suddenly turned back and whispered to Zhong Qingzhu: "If you are close to the place where the monster beast is, don't do it in a hurry. Take a look at the nearby terrain first. If possible, Let's set up an empty phantom array to see the situation."

Zhong Qingzhu nodded and said, "Yes, I see."

The two did not say much, and continued to walk forward carefully in the dark. The darkness and the faint light in front seemed to be always changing between interlacing flashes, giving people the illusion of walking on the edge of yin and yang. . Perhaps only Xiao Hei has never been moved by it, and has been walking calmly in front of the two.

There was a faint fragrance in the air.

A strange light flashed from the front.

Zhong Qingzhu's voice said softly: "The stone is here."

As if the tunnel that had never changed much along the way suddenly came to an end, Shen Shi narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly appeared in front of his eyes a huge cave, which was at least more than a hundred feet in length and breadth. On the extremely high point of the rock wall above the central head, there was a hole about four or five feet wide.

The bright sky light shone from the high hole and turned into a thick beam of light, as if it had fallen from the sky to illuminate a place under the cave. In the brightest round of light, a three-foot tall plant grew. There are no plants in the huge cave except for the green leaf purple petal red fruit ling grass.

All the brilliance, all the light and aura, all the light in this cave, seem to be gathered on this spiritual grass, the wind blows, and the green leaves shake gently.

Tianzhu Zhu fruit.

Shen Shi almost recognized it when he saw the spiritual grass at first sight. This kind of rare and rare elixir with a rank higher than the sixth rank was the dream of almost every person in the path. Even with his cautious and calm temperament, when he saw Tianzhu Zhu Guo, he couldn't help but boil with blood.

Fortunately, fortunately, this peerless panacea does not seem to be okay.

But the next moment, when Shen Shi's gaze left from the Zhu Guo that day, when he saw the situation next to that Zhu Guo, his expression suddenly changed.

Under the bright beam of light descending from the sky, tightly guarding next to this celestial vermilion fruit is a huge monster scorpion, whose height is at least close to three feet tall, and the iron-brown scorpion armor scars everywhere. It can be seen that there is one scarred iron wing remaining, and the other one is broken by the root. On the huge and ferocious head, the weird and numerous compound eyes flashed with fierce and cruel light, and the screaming sound was constantly emitted from the mouth, and he roared at the surroundings.

Obviously, this terrifying monster is an iron-winged black scorpion.

In front of it, to be precise, it was in the clearing in front of Tianji Zhuguo. At this moment, six or seven corpses had been lying down in all directions. It seemed that they were all tyrannical monsters that were rarely seen on weekdays. But it was already dead on the spot, some with broken hands and feet, some with broken stomachs, a thick **** atmosphere was filling this cave.

The beam of light illuminates the area around the celestial vermillion fruit, giving this spiritual grass the brightest light, and then slowly expands, the surrounding light begins to slowly diminish and darken, the more the light goes to the edge of the cave, the more the light becomes Dim. At this moment, at the junction of light and darkness, there seemed to be an invisible but terrifying encirclement, which firmly surrounded the beam of light, spirit grass, and even the iron-winged black scorpion.

In the darkness, the shadows flickered and roared lowly. There were dozens of monster beasts gathered around the uncertainties, their eyes fixed on the iron-winged black scorpion and the vermilion fruit. Among them, judging from the faintly visible figures and auras, all of the iron-winged black scorpions and celestial scorpions in this cave at this moment are all tyrannical monsters above Tier 4 monsters. There is not even one below the level.

Shen Shi's heart beat fiercely uncontrollably, cold sweat oozes from the back of his forehead, and he felt cold all over his body. Turning his head and glanced at Zhong Qingzhu, she saw that her beautiful face was also pale.

Any Tier 4 monster beast will inevitably condense a demon pill when it grows up, its strength is far better than that of ordinary monster beasts, and it is often a side overlord. Just come here, as long as it's basically in good condition, it won't be able to resist disciples of the Ning Yuan realm like Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu, and the scene in front of you, in this cave, is just a glance There were at least twenty Tier 4 monster beasts that roared fiercely.

Not to mention, in the very center of the cave, there is the extremely powerful Tier 5 monster iron-winged black scorpion.

If it is placed on weekdays, with the demon power and perception of Tier 4 monsters, I am afraid that Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu have been found very close, but at this moment, all Tier 4 monsters seem to have paid no attention. At this point, their spirits all fell on the celestial vermilion fruit and iron-winged black scorpion in the deepest part of the light.

The roars came one after another, and the roar was low but it seemed to shake the heart, and the fierce silhouettes in front of the light and shadows swayed endlessly, the momentum was like a mountain and the sea, as if there was only a dead end.

Zhong Qingzhu's body trembled slightly, and his face was as pale as paper. He seemed to have lost his sense of measure in an instant, but at this moment, suddenly a hand grabbed her from the side, it was Shen Shi.

Zhong Qingzhu seemed to be irritated and frightened suddenly. He wanted to start exclaiming. Shen Shi was shocked, and quickly covered her mouth with his other hand, then hugged her tightly in his arms and retreated. Go to the deepest part of the darkness.

Her body was cold, as if in an instant she seemed to be back in the most terrifying dark cave at the beginning, and her whole body began to tremble silently, until suddenly from behind her, in her ears, there was a calm but gentle voice. Said:

"Don't shout, be careful, I'm here."

Zhong Qingzhu's body trembled abruptly, his eyes still looking at the terrible situation ahead, with a slight loss of consciousness, but his body began to slowly calm down.

His breath, in this darkness, in his arms, gently embraced her.
