Chapter 387(1/2)
The tall and thin figure was just a contour. The light flowing out from the cracks in the giant wall swallowed all the details, forcing Bai Xiao to squint his eyes before finally seeing the full picture of the person blocking the passerby.
With Bai Xiao's broad knowledge, he felt a palpitation at this moment.
There was no figure there, it was an unreliable corpse. The strong light amplified its outline and made it look thick and humanoid. But in fact, the slender torso and limbs were only a circle or two thicker than the bones. There was neither moisture nor muscle under the wrinkled skin, and the pale head on the torso was even more broken, and most of the empty eye sockets were broken.
However, this strange creature, like a skeleton, was holding a black battle axe in his hand.
Bai Xiao only took a look and couldn't move his eyes away.
It is a metal that almost only exists in the legend. The specific name varies from legend to legend. Even Master Lan can only vaguely name it in the story: Destiny Iron fully exposes the incompetent nature of the chief witch Zhu's name.
According to legend, it has the terrifying power to break fate. The heroes who initially established the tribe used this object to lay the foundation of the tribe in the desperate situation of the snow-capped mountains.
However, to this day, even though the tribe controls hundreds of snow-capped mineral veins and possesses countless wealth, the fate of the destiny almost exists only in legends.
Bai Xiao could recognize it because Mr. Lan once pointed to the blurry painted black on a picture album and said firmly: Any tribe will realize its extraordinary moment when he sees the Destiny Iron.
But when Mr. Lan sighed this sentence, no one in the tribe has realized that it is extraordinary for at least hundreds of years.
Bai Xiao was honored to be the first hunter in the tribe to witness Tianyue with his own eyes in hundreds of years. It seemed like a call of blood. The moment he saw Tianyue, many magical aspects of it naturally came to his mind.
It is the metal with the largest density known to be. It only takes a small piece to crush an adult's arm. But this metal is like a proud living creature and refuses to melt it with any ordinary product. Therefore, if you want to use Tianyun as a weapon, you must have incredible power to control a magic weapon that is as one and as heavy as a mountain.
The Tianyu weapon has the same weight as a mountain, and has the same powerful destructive power as a mountain. However, this heavy weight is just an appendix. Its real essence lies in its ability to break through the limits and break through destiny. In other words, in front of the divine weapons, there is no invincible enemy or irreversible battle situation. It is an unforgettable blade of victory.
Of course, from common sense, placing the victory or defeat on weapons is a subordinate, but... looking at the withered corpse, Bai Xiao understood the legend of victory again.
Only those who must win can hold the blade of victory.
However, this blade of victory is too big...
The battle axe dragged to the ground by the corpse was as big as a door panel, far better than any weapon Bai Xiao had seen. Combined with the weight of Tianyun, Bai Xiao only felt that the only one in front of him was a heavy mountain.
The mountain was dragged in the hands by the corpse. Although the end was already sinking into the ground, the posture of cutting the hard rocks like soft mud tofu when dragging is enough to prove its power.
The rocks here were confirmed by Bai Xiao himself. The very standard extreme north snowy mountain stones are no less hard and tough than steel in the permafrost. However, it is obvious that the concept of steel seems too fragile for the giant axe or the person holding the axe.
However, looking at such an incredible person and axe, Bai Xiao’s heart inexplicably felt a trace of desolation.
The hero is old.
In my mind, endless emotion only turned into these four words. The person holding the axe is undoubtedly a hero who stands tall and upright. Although the legend has been forgotten, if he can wield such a giant axe and leave his own mark on the boundaries of the world, he has already entered the realm of immortality.
But he still decayed and withered. His strong body was left with only withered bones, and his heavy axe drooped to the ground, and even bent his spine. It was an ugly look that a proud warrior would never let others witness.
Bai Xiao felt a lot of emotion, but in reality he did not stop because of this. Compared with the glory of his predecessors, he had more important things to care for.
During one breath, Bai Xiao simulated and completed an exquisite dodge route in his mind.
He did not intend to fight against the hero's skeleton, and there was no time, and there was no need for that. Although the Tianyu Divine Soldier was indeed a good thing, there was no need to worry about it if it was not his own. Moreover, the arrogant divine Soldier would not easily change its master, and Bai Xiao did not have the confidence to pick up the Tianyu Axe steadily.
Since you have no chance, you will not be attached.
However, as soon as Bai Xiao changed direction, the corpse holding the axe made a shrill scream, and his dry throat even cracked. The black axe was dragged onto the ground by him, shaving the hard snow-capped rocks into a thick and long arc...
The movement was obviously not fast, but it made Bai Xiao feel suffocated in an instant.
If you can't continue to move forward, you will definitely die if you take another step forward.
So he immediately stopped, locked his eyes on the seemingly slow movement trajectory of the giant axe, and quickly simulated and deduced the subsequent changes in his mind.
He has never fought with a man holding the Tianyu Divine Soldier, and it is not an exaggeration to be cautious.
In an instant, with a tingling pain in his mind, he had prepared more than ten options for avoidance for Bai Xiao. Bai Xiao chose the safest one without hesitation. He lowered his body to almost parallel to the ground, and flew with his hands and feet diagonally behind.
The next moment, the pitch-black giant axe was dragged away from the ground, sliding upwards in a slow or even staggering posture. The movement trajectory was full of the vicissitudes of the hero's twilight sense. The heavy mountain-heavy magic weapon barely left the ground less than a few centimeters, and the body of the corpse had already made a crisp sound of bone rupture.
But the earth collapsed at this moment.
Bai Xiao only felt like tens of tons of gunpowder exploded under his feet, and the strong fluctuations rushed up uncontrollably, causing him to jump into the air in an instant, and the movement of lowering his body seemed to have become a joke.
No matter how powerful the hunter is, it is difficult for him to walk in the air without leveraging the force in the air. Bai Xiao had no choice but to activate the magic weapon to spit out pure magic energy, further widening the distance between himself and the corpse.
However, just as the magic energy emerged, Bai Xiao clearly felt the bone-killing intent from the corpse.
The movement of the corpse suddenly became a little faster. The black giant axe originally barely left the ground with inertia, but the next moment it swept across. So the hard snow-mounted rocks dispersed like fluffy snowflakes, and the fine snow chips roared and filled, turning into a tornado that ruined the world and rushed towards Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao only felt his scalp numb.
Such power is simply incredible. Even Bai Wuya at the peak is just like this, and his opponent is just a withered corpse!
In the strong wind, Bai Xiao tried to summon the body-protecting magic tool created by Hongye Xiaozhu. A mouthful of Zhan Qing's shield appeared in front of him. This magic tool that accommodates the entire city wall was enough to resist the meteorites falling from the sky. However, almost the moment the shield appeared, Bai Xiao heard it moaning overwhelmed by the gravel hit, and the magic energy in it also showed signs of stagnation.
In an instant, a trace of enlightenment surged in Bai Xiao's heart, so he immediately restrained the magic weapon in his body and took back all the magic tools he wore in his waist into the storage equipment. What blocked him was a layer of animal skin he had worn when he was heading south from the tribe.
The battle robe he hunted, skinned and tanned by himself could also serve as a shield when necessary. The next moment, Bai Xiao felt that the storm in front of him subsided a lot.
"It turns out that I reacted to the magic energy, but this makes sense..."
The mystery in Bai Xiao’s heart not only did not decrease because of this, but instead doubled.
Unfortunately, there was no time for him to think about the problem carefully. Bai Xiao barely blocked the two axe strikes from the corpse, but before he could land in the air, he felt a few equally haggard figures under his feet.
It is almost the same as the axe holder, but the figure is smaller and haggard, almost just pure skeletons... The weapons in their hands are not as magical as Tiande Tianmo. Most of them are bones, and a few are metals, but they are also full of rust.
However, the murderous intent that erupted from these people could not see the vicissitudes of history swept through.
The moment Bai Xiao landed, he felt the whistling of the wind beside him, and more than ten deadly weapons had arrived.
An enlightenment flashed through my mind again.
The corpse holding the axe was not chopping people with an axe, but simply lifting weapons and calling for his companions... but due to his limited power, he could no longer raise the heavy battle axe high like he did before his lifetime.
But his companions who were sleeping in the snow-capped mountains and rocks still responded to his call, and each of them carried out killing moves at the invaders with their broken weapons.
The scene of himself being broken into pieces appeared clearly in Bai Xiao's mind. This picture is so strong that it seems to be a necessity that has been engraved into reality...
In his lifetime, Bai Xiao has never experienced the inevitability of "death". No matter what kind of desperate situation... even if he was trapped in the Ice Cave of the Holy Mountain a year ago, he did not foresee that he would die.
But facing the siege of more than ten corpses, Bai Xiao couldn't see any hope!
If you can't see it, you will create it.
In the air, Bai Xiao gritted his teeth and made a decision quickly.
With seven attacks from the front, he had to withstand his body and choose behind him through the breakthrough point, which was also the position that seemed to be the least likely to exert force.
The two bone spears shot out like heavy crossbows in the way of magic spurting.
Bai Xiao felt a severe blow on his chest, cheeks, side abdomen, etc., and when the blood and flesh splattered, the two corpses from behind him were also broken by the bone spears transformed into his ribs.
In the same bone collision, there is almost no quality gap. Bai Xiao's bone spear and the lumbar spine of the corpse were shattered at the same time, and this result... is somewhat beyond Bai Xiao's expectations.
Where did these beasts come from? I have been famous for my hard bones in the tribe since I was a child, but I was invincible against a group of bone minions who had been weathered for many years.
But no matter what, as the two enemies behind him were broken, the seemingly flaws suddenly appeared in the encirclement of the sky and earth net. Bai Xiao took advantage of the impact of the injury in front of him and quickly broke through the gap. During this period, although there were a few more deep bone- visible scars on his body, he finally took a slight increase in his initiative.
Bai Xiao rolled on the hard snow-capped rocky ground and stood firm. During one breath, the wounds on his body were naturally gathered by the muscles, and no more blood was lost. The two brand new bone spears were also held tightly in his hands.
The opponent seems to have a banned demon-forbidden physique similar to himself, so the magical powers of the Demonic Tao are ineffective against them. The most powerful weapon is still the martial arts that have been tempered in the tribe for many years and this hard bone.
This is not an ideal battlefield, nor is it an ideal opponent, but Bai Xiao has no choice now.
The axe holder and his minions have completely blocked their way. If you want to return to reality from the breaking point of the world wall, you can only break through the siege.
However, before deciding to fight to the death, Bai Xiao couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart.
Why? Are we having any irreconcilable enemies?
The question was only wandering in my mind for a moment and was left without a trace by Bai Xiao. It was the most taboo to think randomly when the battle was about. No matter what the reason was, the opponent had already shown naked hostility.
That's enough.
The next moment, Bai Xiao rushed back and pointed the bone spear at the tallest member of the minion. In a trance, Bai Xiao seemed to see a tribal warrior with his upper body naked and his muscles swelling like a beast. His usual weapon was a battle axe like a leader, and it was double-held, as if he wanted to show his courage.
But unfortunately, the position of the tribe leader is not determined by the muscle dimension. He can nimblely swing two metal battle axes with amazing size, but cannot lift the Tianyu divine weapon that determines the position of the leader... What's even more sad is that countless years have passed, and his usual battle axe has also withered on this land of the virtual world, with only two axe handles that are like burnt wood left.
This made his actions when he was encircling and suppressing him just now seem ridiculous. Bai Xiao judged that this person was the weakest part of the encirclement. He seemed tall but strong on the outside but was just right for breakthrough.
However, as soon as Bai Xiao took a step, two slightly thin figures came to the tall companion and blocked Bai Xiao's way out.
Bai Xiao's pace changed, and the bone spear swept across, but encountered unexpected resistance at the first time. One of the thin corpses blocked Bai Xiao's bone spear with just a decayed dagger. Although he was swept away from the ground, he had time to fight back for his companions.
The tall corpse holding the axe handle threw the corrupted short handle at Bai Xiao like a spear.
The two spears, one in front and one behind, blocked Bai Xiao's dodge path just right, forcing him to block with his bone spear. As the huge force collided, Bai Xiao only felt the blood in his body boiling.
The momentary stagnation caused Bai Xiao to be surrounded again, and the remaining corpses did not waste any chance. They quickly surrounded Bai Xiao, and then a group of remaining soldiers surrounded him.
After a while, Bai Xiao broke through again, but countless wounds were added to his body, several of which even penetrated deep into the internal organs, and he could no longer forcefully stop the bleeding by closing the muscles.
...The enemy's strength is more than expected, more than imagination.
After the transformation, Bai Xiao is already the most powerful hunter in the entire tribe. He is confident that even if he faces Bai Wuya, he will have a chance to win by one or two points, and the rest of the people are no problem. As for winning by more, Bai Xiao seems to be even more a joke. The difference in single combat power has reached a certain level, and the number is actually a disadvantage.
But the group of corpses in front of him completely broke the common sense of cognition. Any of them has the strength similar to Bai Xiao, and this is the power left by the remaining body after the weathering and decay!
Has the Snow Mountain Tribe ever had such a glorious era?
Although when listening to Mr. Lan's story, he mentioned that after the tribe settled in the snow-capped mountains, he experienced earth-shaking changes many times, and there were too many internal divisions and even fighting to the death. In the end, only a group of survivors were left... But how did such a group of warriors withdraw from the stage of history?
Unfortunately, now is not a good time to find the answer.
Bai Xiao held the bone spear tightly again, and at the same time, Hongye Xiaozhu's magic tools appeared around him one by one.
To be continued...
