C1879 Zhu Hongxian's Crisis
At this time, even if he was facing off against the queen bee, he had nothing to fear.
The aura from his body was rising rapidly, and Chu Yun and the others could see it clearly.
After he had touched the runes in the black plains, they had already affected his mind, but he didn't know it.
"Bai Hua, you've already been possessed."
queen bee called out the old man's name, Bai Hua.
His main body was a birch tree, with a treacherous, cunning personality. He had once wanted to snatch the queen bee's vital yin, but was defeated and escaped with his life, without much harm.
"Haha, Bedevilment? If raising your strength means becoming a devil, then I would rather sink into depravity in the demonic path! "
Bai Hua laughed loudly. Amidst her laughter, a wave of attacks struck at queen bee's golden shield.
Even under the protection of the queen bee's protective shield, Chu Yun and the others could still feel the terrifying sound waves coming from Bai Hua's body.
The lotus flower shield trembled violently under Bai Hua's attacks, as if it would collapse at any moment.
The queen bee's expression changed slightly. The protective shield she put up with her cultivation of the Golden Immortal Stage Level 1 was about to be broken by Bai Hua.
"His strength has increased."
Chu Yun's heart trembled, he could clearly feel that Bai Hua's power was much stronger than before.
"So what? He won't be able to break through this shield. "
After the queen bee finished speaking, the immortal power in his body started circulating towards the shield, maintaining the shield's energy and preventing it from being broken.
But just at that moment, the bones had crawled out from the black ground, they were huge and imposing, in an instant, they surrounded Chu Yun and the rest.
Seeing this scene, Chu Yun said with a serious expression on his face, "This black plains, has finally displayed its strange side."
"Hehe, you can stay. This great army of the plains needs you to join us!"
Bai Hua spoke in a dry voice. As he spoke, he gently waved his hand and the skeletons surrounding Chu Yun and the others immediately began to attack them ferociously, one after another, attacking towards Chu Yun and the others.
The lotus protection barrier was very strong, but after facing the attacks from the surrounding skeleton army, it was unable to block them.
The strength of each skeleton may not be as strong as they were at their peak, but they were too numerous. Every time they attacked, they would leave a mark on the lotus protective shield, and in an instant, countless marks would be left on the protective shield, as if it could be broken at any time.
Seeing this scene, queen bee's expression changed greatly as he said fearfully: "My barrier, may very well not be able to block their attacks!"
As she spoke, the celestial spiritual energy in her body gushed out again and rushed toward the lotus flower barrier to reinforce it.
Currently, she was Level 1 Golden Immortal. She could withstand the danger in front of her, but she could only protect herself, and could not take Chu Yun and the others into consideration.
Therefore, she had to reinforce her shield, hoping that the surrounding army of skeletons wouldn't be a threat to her.
However, it was all in vain. Bai Hua's fighting strength had risen to the extreme. In just a moment, a tyrannical power surged out from Bai Hua's body. Like a tidal wave, it fiercely crashed into the Lotus Rain Barrier.
This strike, combined with the attacks from the surrounding skeletons, actually caused the Lotus protective shield to tremble violently under the powerful attack.
"Master, this power is too strong. I have no way of resisting it!"
At this moment, queen bee's expression changed greatly. While he spoke, the lotus protective barrier suddenly shattered, and Chu Yun and the others were immediately exposed to the surrounding skeleton army.
"I will block them. queen bee, you leave with Master!"
segmental wave took a step forward, the immortal energy on his body revolving as a tyrannical power erupted from his body. At this moment, he turned into a ray of light and rushed into the army of skeleton, launching an attack on them.
The queen bee did not argue and did not give them an answer. Instead, she continued to lead Chu Yun and the others towards the edge of the black plains.
She had to leave this place, she couldn't let Chu Yun and the others take the risk!
However, at this moment, the surrounding army of skeletons came attacking. Every single skeleton had the power of a Celestial Immortal. Some were strong, some were weak. However, they were all at least at the Celestial Immortal Realm!
The endless army of skeleton bones attacked in a primitive manner, relying only on their bones to attack the queen bee and the rest. However, even with such a monotonous attack, the queen bee was not able to withstand it.
After all, there were too many of them, so the queen bee could use his immortal power to fly out, but if she flew out, what would happen to Chu Yun?
"Husband, I can bring you out of this encirclement, but I can't save them!"
With her current strength, she could only protect one Chu Yun to leave. If she were to protect Xuan Qiuliang and Xuan Qiuliang, it would simply be unrealistic.
Their strength was too low. At this moment, they were just a burden!
"Chu Yun, you leave first!"
Hearing queen bee's words, Zhu Hongxian immediately responded.
She didn't want Chu Yun to stay here and bear the danger with them. She would be satisfied if she could see Chu Yun leave.
Xuan Qiuliang also said: "Even though I really don't want to be your slave, I'm already your slave. I can't change this status, I only hope that you can quickly escape from here.
After Chu Yun heard this, his face was full of bitterness.
Would he have the chance to save Xuan Qiuliang and the others in the future?
Don't be naive. In this place, as long as you are attacked by the strange power within, there is no possibility of saving you.
This kind of evil and strange place, they can devour human intelligence, turning people into zombies.
Right now, it was only the Bone Corpse army attacking them from all sides. Bai Hua hadn't made a move yet, so if Bai Hua did, how could they have survived?
"Chu Yun, don't stay here, only one can go now. If you stay here too, you will meet with misfortune, and if you die, your twenty thousand men will die as well!"
Xuan Qiuliang seemed to know what Chu Yun was going to say and directly opened his mouth to cut off Chu Yun's retreat.
Hearing her words, Chu Yun felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Right now, he didn't represent himself at all. If he died, then so would those who signed the blood essence contract with him!
He was very clear about this point in his heart, but seeing Xuan Qiuliang and the others die here, he couldn't bear it any longer.
"Old Hong, what exactly is this place? Do you have a way to deal with the crisis here? "
At such a critical moment, Chu Yun could only ask the Primordial Divine Tree in his mind for help.
Perhaps the Primordial Divine Tree could now give him a concrete solution.
Hearing this, the Primordial Divine Tree said, "This is an evil land. The symbols here have been invaded by some sort of demonic power. If you stay here now, you won't be able to escape!"
"I'm not asking you how to escape, I'm asking you how to deal with the crisis here!"
Chu Yun immediately rushed towards the Primordial Divine Tree and roared.
Indeed, he was not only trying to escape on his own right now, he was also trying to escape while bringing Zhu Hongxian along.
If it was just him escaping, he only needed to follow queen bee and he would be able to leave this place!
Hearing Chu Yun's words, the Primordial Divine Tree felt bad.
This guy was not polite at all to him. After all, he was begging for his help!
"Brat, if you want me to bring you out, you have to correct your attitude!"
The Primordial Divine Tree lectured Chu Yun, its voice filled with rage.
Hearing this, Chu Yun said directly: "We are one and the same. If I die here, you better not think about it too much. Right now, quickly tell me what you need to do to escape!"
"We can't escape. The strangeness of this place has been restored, and they can devour life force. All of you have life force within you, so you're the target for these guys to devour."
The Primordial Divine Tree's reply greatly disappointed Chu Yun and made him immediately roar out, "Could it be that I'm going to die here?"
"This is a song about danger. Danger implies opportunity. If you are able to unravel the mystery of this plain, then this might be your opportunity!"
After saying this, the Primordial Divine Tree quieted down. No matter how Chu Yun called out to it, it did not come out.
Seeing this situation, Chu Yun sighed in his heart. At such a critical moment, the Primordial Divine Tree was truly unreliable.
The danger in front of their eyes must have been caused by the runes on those stones. Previously, the segmental wave had determined that those runes did not have any power, and the divine power of those runes had already disappeared.
If he wanted to leave this plain, the only way was to solve the mystery of these symbols!
But how could he solve the mystery of these runes?
At this moment, Chu Yun's gaze unwittingly fell on segmental wave. Amongst their group, only segmental wave could understand these Runes, so if they wanted to escape, perhaps only segmental wave could do so.
However, the segmental wave was currently fighting. He held a pike in his hand, and wherever the pike passed by, all the bones surrounding Chu Yun and the rest would immediately be reduced to smithereens. They were not his match.
There were too many of them, and countless of corpses were crawling out of the black plains. Their numbers were too many, and were not something segmental wave could destroy!
Every time a skeleton was smashed to pieces, more would emerge from the black plains. Their attacks were simple, as they used the strength of their own bodies to deal with the enemy.
Although they said they had the power of the flesh, they were actually not, at all. They relied on the toughness of their bones to resist the segmental wave's pikes.
The long spear in segmental wave's hand was a Grade 5 immortal weapon, it was extremely hard. When he attacked the surrounding bones, the spear seemed to be unstoppable, and no one could defend against it.
However, it was useless at this moment. His attacks were like a drop in the bucket for the army of skeletons before him.
Seeing the situation in front of him, Chu Yun once again asked the Primordial Divine Tree in his mind, "Old Hong, hurry up and give us a concrete solution. Otherwise, we'll all die here!"
"I really don't have any way. If you want to get rid of this situation, you can only understand the runes on these stones. However, do you have time to understand these runes?"
The Primordial Divine Tree finally gave Chu Yun a concrete solution.
Understand these runes?
Chu Yun didn't know anything at all about runes.
"segmental wave, we were battled. Do you understand what are the weird aspects of these runes?"
With no other choice, Chu Yun could only ask segmental wave who was fighting against the skeleton army.
Hearing Chu Yun's words, the segmental wave replied, "These are seal runes, and I don't understand more."
He did not understand the mysteries of these symbols. After all, time was too short. Wanting to completely understand the runes on the surrounding rocks in a short period of time was simply unrealistic!
Hearing segmental wave's words, Chu Yun said again: "I will let queen bee defend against the surrounding attacks, you should first understand the runes here! Perhaps from these runes, we can find a way to solve the crisis here! "
Chu Yun roared at segmental wave, there was no other way, right now, he could only rely on segmental wave.
After hearing that, the segmental wave immediately followed his orders. His figure flashed, no longer fighting against the surrounding army of skeletons, but instead, went to Chu Yun's side.
queen bee accepted the original mission with great tacit understanding, her figure flashed, like a meteor, he charged into the skeleton army and said to Chu Yun: "I will buy you all time, you all must break the secret here in a short period of time!"
She was only proficient in soul attacks, and the immortal energy within her body was not much stronger than that of a Heavenly Immortal Stage Level 10.
However, if it was simply to gain time, it would be a piece of cake.
"queen bee, be careful!"
Chu Yun earnestly reminded queen bee.
When queen bee heard this, his face brimmed with happiness. He said, "Don't worry, my husband. I'm not willing to die because you care about me so much."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and waved it towards the surrounding army of skeletons. A palm strike swept out, bringing with it an incomparably violent force. It tore through space, landing on the surrounding army of skeletons.
In a split-second, the huge army of skeletons collapsed to the ground, turning into dust and disappearing into thin air.
However, there were simply too many skeletons. They crawled out of the black plains in an endless stream.
Every one of the skeletons were fearless, as if they were being controlled by a mysterious power, as they moved forward, one after the other, wanting to kill Chu Yun and the others.
The queen bee was very strong, at least a lot stronger than the power of a Heavenly Immortal Stage Level 10. However, the endless army of skeletons troubled her.
Even though it only killed the army of bones in an instant, it was still inexhaustible under the accumulation of so many people!
"What I'm good at is soul attacks. I refuse to believe these skeletal armies don't have souls!"
At this moment, the power of the queen bee's divine soul surged, and in an instant, Chu Yun and the others felt their hearts palpitate.
The power of the soul was formless and formless, as was the attack of the soul. This made it hard for intelligent creatures to resist.
The power of the queen bee's soul was like a storm, sweeping out in all directions, in an instant, all the bones attacking from all over immediately turned into fine powder, and vanished into thin air!
Useful!
Seeing that his soul attack had worked, queen bee's face lit up. As long as his soul attack had an effect, then it was good. With the effect, he would naturally be able to face his next attack and buy segmental wave some time to unravel the runes!
However, when queen bee used his Divine Soul attack again, Bai Hua's voice reached her ears, "queen bee, your Divine Soul attack is very strong.
Hearing Bai Hua's words, queen bee's heart sank. From start to finish, Bai Hua did not continue to take action, he just stood at the side like a spectator, watching segmental wave and queen bee take care of the surrounding army of skeleton.
Now that he had spoken, did that mean he was going to act?
"queen bee, you are already a Golden Immortal. You are an expert here, but Golden Immortals might not be able to suppress all the strangeness in this place!"
After Bai Hua finished speaking, he raised his hands and two blood-red lights appeared on his arms.
He raised both his hands and pointed at the sky. Suddenly, a ball of red light appeared in the sky like a sun, illuminating the entire black plains.
As the blood-red light shone on the Black Plains, the large army of skeletons that had been constantly attacking queen bee and the others suddenly stopped.
This was like a command from Bai Hua, and the skeleton army ordered a ban. They all stood still, not daring to move at all.
queen bee's attacks also stopped at this moment. She could not understand Bai Hua's current actions.
segmental wave also stopped studying the runes on the rock. Seeing the scarlet sun appearing in the sky, he frowned.
A bad premonition also surged out from Chu Yun's heart. Looking at the sun in the sky, he muttered to himself, "Could it be that this guy is going to make a big move?"
As he spoke, he heard Bai Hua say, "This place isn't just some ordinary skeleton. There were even stronger existences. They were currently in a deep slumber. It's a pity that you just made a move and broke their hibernation. They have already awoken! "
"What does he mean?"
queen bee did not understand and asked Chu Yun who was beside him.
In fact, it wasn't that she didn't understand, but she didn't want to believe that there was a greater danger within the black plains.
The army of skeletons had already tired her out. If there were even stronger existences present, how would she be able to defend herself?
"queen bee, be careful!"
Chu Yun immediately warned queen bee.
At this moment, he hated himself from the bottom of his heart. He was obviously the master of the segmental wave, but facing the danger in front of him, he had no solution.
Even the answer given by the Primordial Divine Tree wasn't enough to satisfy him. After all, it would still take some time for the segmental wave to solve the mysteries of the runes on the stone.
And Baihua obviously didn't give them the time!
Because, after the surrounding army of skeleton stopped their attack, a terrifying energy wave came from the ground. Even though Chu Yun was standing beside the queen bee, he still felt that oppressive aura!
This feeling was as if there was a sword floating above his head that could fall at any time, causing him to not dare to be even the slightest bit careless.
"queen bee, I'll let you experience the power of this plain!"
Bai Hua spoke again. As his voice fell, a white bone palm suddenly appeared beneath queen bee's feet.
The bones were entirely golden, a sacred light flickered on them, and when the white bones appeared, a heart palpitating energy burst out, causing queen bee to hurriedly dodge.
"Master, the danger is here!"
queen bee said with a serious expression.
Previously, the unending stream of skeletons had caused trouble for them, but now, with the sudden appearance of that golden arm of bones beneath her, she could feel a sense of danger.
The golden skeletal arm had not fully materialized, but it had already given the queen bee a sense of pressure that was hard to put into words.
Immediately after, another golden skeletal arm emerged from the ground, and two golden skeletal arms appeared. An inch-sized ball of golden light immediately appeared between these two arms.
A terrifying aura surged out from the golden ball of light, upon seeing this, queen bee immediately started to circulate the immortal power in his body, instantly forming another protective layer of lotus flowers, enveloping Chu Yun and herself.
She then extended her hand out and waved it, releasing a burst of immortal energy that supported the feet of Chu Yun and the others. Carrying their bodies, she brought them immediately and flew up into the sky.
But just as he flew towards the sky, that ball of golden light suddenly erupted, and a terrifying force that caused one's heart to palpitate suddenly exploded from that pair of golden white arms, heading straight for queen bee!
Rumble
A deafening sound erupted from both of the bones' arms. With monstrous power, it struck towards queen bee's protective lotus!
In that instant, the lotus protective shield shattered, but the vibrating power did not weaken in the slightest, as it heavily smashed into queen bee's body!
"Pu ci!"
A mouthful of blood sprayed out from queen bee's mouth. The explosion of the golden ball of energy had severely injured her!
As for Chu Yun and the others, they were also attacked by the shockwaves of the explosion, and their bodies were sent flying backwards like kites with their strings cut!
"Master!"
segmental wave was afraid that Chu Yun would be killed by the berserk energy, he immediately covered himself with the immortal energy and protected Chu Yun completely.
As for Zhu Hongxian and Xuan Qiuliang, he couldn't care less and allowed them to fend for themselves.
Xuan Qiuliang was alright, she was after all, a Level 3 Sky Immortal. Furthermore, the energy explosion was mostly blocked by the queen bee, so even though she was blown away, she did not sustain any serious injuries.
But Zhu Hongxian suffered a heavy injury, a large mouthful of blood spurted out from her mouth, before her body could even land on the ground, blood had rained down from the sky, it was as beautiful as a flower.
This flower was the embodiment of life. It was very beautiful, but also very deadly.
They represent the waning of a person's life!
"Zhu Hongxian!"
Chu Yun's face changed greatly, he immediately activated all the immortal energy in his body, channeled his Stealing the Legs of God, and ran out from segmental wave's protection, running towards Zhu Hongxian!
How could he watch Zhu Hongxian die in front of his eyes?
Zhu Hongxian was the first woman he had ever seen in the Immortal World. If he let her die by her side, what would she do?
"Master, we can't care so much now!"
Seeing Chu Yun's actions, the segmental wave roared.
How could Chu Yun withstand a crisis that even the queen bee could not withstand?
At this time, Xuan Qiuliang and Zhu Hongxian were existences that could be abandoned at any time. He did not allow anything to happen to Chu Yun, but how could Chu Yun go and take care of Zhu Hongxian at this critical moment!
"She is my woman!"
Chu Yun's answer was very simple. Zhu Hongxian was his woman, he had to protect Zhu Hongxian's safety!
Hearing Chu Yun's words, the segmental wave's expression became unsettled. After a long while, he sighed and said: "Since that's the case, I'll protect the safety of the mistress as well!"
As for Xuan Qiuliang, he treated him as air.
To protect Chu Yun, he had already used all of his strength, and now he was going to divert his attention to protect Zhu Hongxian.
If he protected Xuan Qiuliang, he could seal his own cultivation and fall into the ground, allowing the skeleton army to rip him to shreds.
When queen bee heard Chu Yun's words, he could not help but feel a surge of jealousy in his heart, and he said: "Hubby, I'm also your woman!"
The reason why he was fighting to the death here was to protect Chu Yun's safety, but Chu Yun was still thinking about protecting Zhu Hongxian at this moment.
"queen bee, your strength is a bit stronger, sorry to trouble you!"
Chu Yun's answer was very concise. When queen bee heard these words, he didn't know what to say.
In truth, she did not have the time to be distracted, because the golden skeleton on the ground had already revealed its appearance!
This was a human-shaped skeleton that was around 1.8 meters tall, and its entire body was a golden color.
The golden glow on the skeleton was incongruous compared to the dead silence around them. There was even a sacred glow on the surface of the skeleton. It was very weak, but it was clearly imprinted in front of everyone's eyes.
However, after it appeared, it immediately raised its hand. In an instant, a terrifying wave of celestial spiritual energy could be felt from its body. All of the celestial spiritual energy within a 100 meter radius involuntarily entered its body!
Seeing this scene, Chu Yun's expression changed greatly as he exclaimed, "It's going to attack!"
"I know!"
queen bee replied with a serious expression.
She carefully stared at the golden skeleton. As long as this golden skeleton made any movements, she would immediately launch a counterattack.
The golden skeleton was completely revealed to everyone. It suddenly raised its head to look at the sky, its mouth slightly opened and closed, releasing a terrifying pressure from its soul, oppressing Chu Yun and the rest.
"Kill!"
Immediately after, the word 'kill' came out of its mouth as if it was transmitted with a divine intent. Chu Yun felt a sharp pain from its mouth, and when he held Zhu Hongxian's hands, he couldn't help but want to hold onto his head, in order to ease the sharp pain that came from his soul.
Zhu Hongxian himself was severely injured from the last battle, but now that she heard the word "kill" coming out from the skeleton's mouth, she felt as though her soul was about to shatter.
Xuan Qiuliang was the same, her body lying on the ground, she hugged her head and moaned in pain.
Only segmental wave felt a little better, but he couldn't help but stagger and almost fell to the ground.
Only queen bee did not have any reaction towards the word 'kill' that was sent through his telepathic thoughts.
However, when the word 'kill' came out of her mouth, she channeled all of the power of her soul and formed layers of defenses in her mind. A total of one hundred defenses were broken through.
"Haha, queen bee, this is just an appetizer! And then, there are a lot of other existences like this one. "
Bai Hua was standing at the side. Seeing that the queen bee and the rest were defending against the word "kill" from the white bones, he immediately laughed out loud.
Hearing his words, queen bee's face changed. It was already difficult for her to deal with a golden skeleton, if another golden skeleton appeared, how would she be able to defend herself?
However, the current situation didn't allow her to think that much. At this moment, her figure suddenly soared into the air. The power of her soul filled her mind, forming a long sword that directly slashed towards Bai Hua!
The invisible and formless soul reached its peak speed. Disregarding the distance between them, it instantly appeared in front of Bai Hua.
However, Bai Hua seemed to have been prepared for this. When the power of queen bee's soul arrived, another golden skeleton appeared from the bottom of his feet and stood in front of him.
At the same time, the queen bee's soul force attack on the golden skeleton's body, releasing a 'dang' sound.
In the surroundings, when this sound was heard, the other skeletons all gathered together. Furthermore, every single one of them was turned into fine powder.
The queen bee was the first to bear the brunt of the rebound force, he immediately laid a layer of defense on the surface of his body like a tortoise shell, covering his entire body.
The power of the soul that counterattacked wasn't able to shatter the tortoise shell that she formed with the power of the divine soul, but when Chu Yun, Zhu Hongxian, Xuan Qiuliang, and the segmental wave rebounded back from the power of the divine soul, they felt a sharp pain from inside their own heads. For a moment, everyone fell onto the ground, hugging their heads and wailing endlessly!
"queen bee, your invincible soul attack doesn't seem to have any effect!"
Seeing Chu Yun and the others fall on the ground, Bai Hua once again taunted them loudly.
His eyes were red and filled with an evil aura. Victory was within his grasp.
"Zhu Hongxian!"
Just then, Chu Yun suddenly screamed out in fear.
He was right beside Zhu Hongxian, and Zhu Hongxian had already suffered a divine soul attack before this. Now, the power of the divine soul that was attacking Bai Hua from the queen bee was blocked, causing her to suffer another injury.
Even though Chu Yun was blocking in front of her, her weak and fragile soul was still affected, like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any time!
At this time, Zhu Hongxian's face was pale white, large mouthfuls of blood gushed out from the corner of her mouth.
However, there was a smile on her face as she felt Chu Yun's concern. Lightly lifting her hand, she caressed towards Chu Yun's cheek.0
Chu Yun immediately grabbed her hand and placed it on his face, saying in shock: "There's me, Zhu Hongxian, I'm here!"
"Chu Chu Yun, am I going to die?"
stuttered as he felt the warmth coming from Chu Yun's face.
She felt as if her soul was a broken piece of porcelain that had just been glued together at the last moment.
Having withstood two soul attacks, her soul was already on the verge of breaking apart!
"It won't, Zhu Hongxian, you'll be fine!"
Chu Yun grabbed her hand, feeling both terrified and nervous.
"Zhu Hongxian, don't say anything, I have a way to save you, you'll be fine!"
Hearing Chu Yun's fearful voice, Zhu Hongxian smiled as she caressed Chu Yun's face. After a long while, she couldn't move her hands away as she said: "I'm so envious of queen bee.
