Chapter 45
: Trial
Many people think that the night in the underworld must be gloomy and terrifying, but if Yan Xiu said that the night in the underworld actually has a different scenery, covering the faint gray sky, with purple moonlight penetrated the dead air and spreading on the black and gray land. From a distance, it looked like purple light pillars, bringing another strange beauty and mystery to the deep underworld.
Yan Xiu was standing quietly in the middle of the valley, his pupils were far away, looking into the distance, beside him was a circle with a diameter of about ten meters with stones. In addition to him, there were also a skeleton in the circle.
"Let's start!"
Yan Xiu retracted his gaze and calmed down, saying to the "Cheng Yaojin" surrounding him and the six third-level black iron skeleton warriors.
After receiving Yan Xiu's consciousness, the seven skeletons, including "Cheng Yaojin", lit up their eyes and rushed towards Yan Xiu with their own weapons.
Among the seven skeletons, the fastest movement was the one of "Cheng Yaojin". When he stepped on his feet, he turned into a faint green light and came to Yan Xiu almost instantly. The bronze bone axe wheel in his hand rose, and the pupil fire flashed in his eyes. The white light on the bone axe flashed, turning into a shocking rainbow and slashed towards Yan Xiu's waist.
"A stupid guy, it's been a month, why has he still made no progress for a long time?"
Seeing this, Yan Xiu's eyes flashed with fire, and he was a little angry. Then his body twisted, so strange that when the axe blade reached his waist, it disappeared. The next moment, Yan Xiu appeared behind "Cheng Yaojin", raised his bones and slashed at "Cheng Yaojin"'s neck like lightning.
However, Yan Xiu, who was standing behind "Cheng Yaojin", did not see it. Just as he disappeared, the pupil fire was always filled with a silly "Cheng Yaojin", and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. The bronze bone axe swept away in an instant. He pulled his hands suddenly, and the handle of the bone axe hit back and hit Yan Xiu behind him.
"Hey! Not bad! I can use tricks?"
As soon as Yan Xiu's hand attacked, he discovered the attack of "Cheng Yaojin". His pupils flashed in his eyes and he jokingly said.
He teased "Cheng Yaojin" in his mouth, but Yan Xiu's movements did not slow down at all. The pupils flashed in his eyes, and a faint white fire shield appeared in front of the axe handle. A "ding" sounded, and the axe handle and the fire shield collided without accident. "Cheng Yaojin" was ejected from the fire shield, but although it was a little embarrassed, it avoided Yan Xiu's bone hand.
Seeing this, Yan Xiu's pupils flashed with a little dissatisfaction. When his body twisted, he was about to kill "Cheng Yaojin". However, at this time, six other skeleton warriors from the third level had arrived one after another. Two of the leading ones had waved the bone swords in their hands and slashed at Yan Xiu one after another.
Yan Xiu's pupils flashed, and a thin flame armor covered Yan Xiu's whole body. "Ding, Ding." Two light sounds sounded, and the two bone swords hit the flame armor covering Yan Xiu's whole body almost indiscriminately. However, this "Fire Fire Armor" is Yan Xiu's only defensive combat skill at present. How could it be easily broken by two third-level peak skeletons? The two bone swords were bounced open at almost at the same time. Yan Xiu's pupil fire flashed in his eyes, and his body twisted, "Boom, Boom," and then two sounds of landing sounded. The two third-level peak skeleton warriors who had just attacked Yan Xiu were almost knocked out of the circle by Yan Xiu at the same time.
As the two skeletons were just shot out of the circle, the remaining four skeleton warriors at the top of the third level came to Yan Xiu at the same time, waving the weapons with white light in their hands, attacking Yan Xiu from different directions at the same time. "Cheng Yaojin" also replied at this time, and the giant axe in his hand emitted a strong white light slashed towards Yan Xiu at this time.
“Born!”
Faced with this situation, Yan Xiu not only did not change color at all, but instead showed disdain. The pupil fire flashed in his eyes, and a faint light appeared on his bone claws, and he swung it out like thunder. He firmly grabbed the bone axe of "Cheng Yaojin". The pupil fire flashed in his eyes, and shouted: "Burning!"
As Yan Xiu's roar sounded, a strong light suddenly burst out from Yan Xiu's hand bones. At this moment, Yan Xiu waved his hand and felt a huge force surge in his rush. His arm was shocked, and the bone axe in his hand had changed hands.
"Ding, ding, ding, ding."
Just as Yan Xiu had just grabbed the bone axe from "Cheng Yaojin"'s hand, the four third-level peak skeleton bone swords arrived almost at the same time, and hit the "Fire Fire Armor" covering Yan Xiu's whole body in no particular order. The full-strength attack of the four third-level peak skeletons was almost comparable to the full-strength attack of the fourth-level lower-level skeleton. Such a powerful attack could only cause a slight wave on the "Fire Fire Armor". This shows that Yan Xiu's strength has made great progress.
"This attack wants to break the 'Fire Armor'? It's possible that this month ago, but now? It's a fool!"
Yan Xiu looked at the four third-level peak skeletons that were bounced away and said.
However, Yan Xiu's saliva was wasted. Although these four third-level peak skeletons were planted with Yan Xiu's soul mark, they could simply understand some of Yan Xiu's commands, but there were still some low-intelligence things in their original intelligence. How could they understand such complex language as Yan Xiu? Therefore, the four third-level peak skeletons each waved the bone sword in their hands and came again.
"idiot!"
Seeing this, Yan Xiu's eyes flashed with fire, cursed angrily, his body twisted, his speed instantly surged, and he rushed into the middle of the four skeletons, "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom," Yan Xiu's body was illusioned, and the bone axe in his hand rose up, swept the four skeletons almost at the same time, knocking them out of the circle.
"Yaojin, it's my turn again... Hey, this guy is smart!"
Yan Xiu knocked out four third-level peak skeletons and turned around to use "Cheng Yaojin" as a sandbag, but he was amused and found that the guy had already run out of the circle in shame.
Yan Xiu shook his head and ignored "Cheng Yaojin", turned his head and shouted at the group of skeleton archers with bows and crossbows a hundred meters away behind him, "Shoot!" As soon as Yan Xiu's consciousness came out, the group of skeleton archers shot out the bone arrows in his hand without hesitation. For a moment, a hundred bone arrows shot at Yan Xiu like rain.
Yan Xiu looked at the dense rain of arrows flying from the sky, and a trace of horror flashed through his pupil fire, but he instantly returned to calm. He looked up at arrows and waited silently.
"Swoosh, swosh, swosh..."
The bone arrows did not approach Yan Xiu with the sound of breaking through the air, and finally came to Yan Xiu's head. Yan Xiu's pupils flashed in his eyes, his body twisted, and his whole person was already in a strange way. Although he could not avoid all bone arrows, if there was a bone arrow to hit him, he would always be blocked by the fire shield that suddenly flashed on his body.
One round, two rounds, three rounds, Yan Xiu persisted in this kind of Jian Yu for a total of five rounds before he ordered his subordinates to stop, sit cross-legged and reciting to recover his fighting spirit.
While Yan Xiu was sitting cross-legged and practicing, "Cheng Yaojin" who had just hid outside the circle in shame, he directed a group of skeleton brothers to clean up the scene without Yan Xiu's instructions. I think he has been doing this for many months.
At the same time, a fiery red meteor suddenly flashed by about a hundred miles away from this valley and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"That's...what?"
At this time, No. 9, who was leading this team of skeletons to hunt the ownerless skeletons near the valley, just looked up and saw the flash of the meteor. The pupil fire in his eyes showed a hint of doubt and curiosity.
“Go…check it out.”
No. 9 tilted his head and thought for a while, finally said so, and then led a team of skeletons toward the meteor.
Three hours later, "Huh...! Finally recovered."
Yan Xiu woke up from the practice, stood up, stretched his body, and made the bones around him suddenly "crack" sound.
"What's going on? Yao Jin, why haven't the 9th come back yet?"
Yan Xiu looked around and found that No. 9, who usually likes to stay by his side, has not yet been seen yet. He couldn't help but jumped in his pupils and said a little uneasy.
"Go back to the lord...Yao Jin doesn't... know."
‘Cheng Yaojin’s head tilted, her pupils flashed, and she seemed to be thinking seriously, and then she said in Yan Xiu’s somewhat anticipated gaze.
"Dong!"
Yan Xiugu's hand shot out like lightning and knocked hard on "Cheng Yaojin's head. The force was so strong that it made "Cheng Yaojin's pupil fire a little dizzy, and he said hatefully: "I don't know what you are thinking about? I'm wasting my time."
After saying that, Yan Xiu didn't pay attention to this live treasure and stood quietly. His pupil fire suddenly became empty, and his mind was immersed in the connection between the soul marks. He felt that the connection with No. 9 was still there, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed.
"So far? What's this little guy doing there?"
In less than a moment, Yan Xiu's pupil fire returned to clear light again, looking at the direction No. 9 was in confusion.
"have no idea."
The honest man "Cheng Yaojin" standing next to Yan Xiu thought Yan Xiu was asking him, and then he tilted his head and thought for a while before he said seriously.
"Dong!"
Yan Xiu didn't look back and knocked on Cheng Yaojin's head accurately, saying, "No one asked you."
This huge force knocked down again, making the pupil fire "Cheng Yaojin" dizzy, and the pupil fire couldn't help but feel a little confused and aggrieved.
"Forget it, I'd better go and have a look. Yao Jin is optimistic about the house."
Yan Xiu thought for a while, his body twisted and disappeared from the spot, leaving only a misty sound.
At the same time, nearly a hundred miles from the valley, No. 9 was taking a team of skeletons to a large pit with a diameter of about five meters and still slightly emitting clear smoke.
"What...thing is this?"
No. 9 looked at the black humanoid object lying on the bottom of the deep pit.
"You go... bring the things... up!"
No. 9 tilted his head and thought for a while, and said to a little skeleton brother beside him.
Yan Xiu's group of younger brothers can definitely be called the most dedicated younger brothers in the underworld. Even if the questions raised by No. 9 are rude, these little skeletons will run to do it happily, let alone get something.
In less than a moment, the skeleton went down to the bottom of the pit, came to the black human-shaped object, stretched out his bones to grab the black human-shaped object, and was about to support it towards the top of the pit.
"Click"
But I didn't expect that the humanoid object that seemed to be about the size of a skeleton would be so bulky. A second-level skeleton warrior pulled down with all his strength, but he didn't pull the humanoid object at all, but instead dislocated his bone hand.
"Idiot...you guys go!
"No. 9 cursed angrily when he saw this, and pointed his hand at the two third-level peak skeleton warriors who were specially sent by Yan Xiu to protect it.
The two skeletons followed the order and jumped out of the deep pit without hesitation. They came to the human-shaped object. A skeleton grabbed a place similar to the soles of the feet and pulled it up the deep pit.
However, the weight of this humanoid object is far beyond the imagination of No. 9. Although the two third-level skeletons can pull it, the pace of moving towards the pit can be described as difficult as steps. It took nearly an hour for the two third-level skeletons to pull the humanoid object into the pit.
"Idiot...Idiot...Waste!"
No. 9, who was standing at the top of the pit, had been impatient for a long time. He kept cursing the two third-level peak skeleton warriors using the words he learned from Yan Xiu.
As soon as two third-level peak skeletons pulled up the humanoid object, No. 9 excitedly came to the humanoid object and looked at it. The bone hand drew a bone arrow and stabbed it at the humanoid object. Although it did not understand what it was, it accidentally removed some dust and soil on the humanoid object, revealing some fiery red opaque crystals.
Looking at the dazzling crystals that were flashing with light, the No. 9's pupil fire flashed with a burst of intoxication, and then said to a group of skeletons beside him: "Bring it back... to... lord."
When the skeletons heard the order of No. 9, they surrounded the human-shaped object and stretched out their bone hands to lift the human-shaped object.
"Things... mine."
At this moment, a fireball of one large diameter hit the group of skeletons, and a slightly greedy consciousness also came.
"boom!"
