C241 Blood Devil Hong Lie
Immediately, Xiao Jian dashed out of the village along the ground. He could clearly see the footprints of the horse hooves. In the northeast direction, he chased after them.
There was a wide road outside the village. The sky was covered by the howling cold wind, and the sand was covered in dust. A mound stood tall in a yellow world, making it seem a little desolate. Occasionally, there would be some residential houses that stood tall, but they would also be in shambles.
In Dark Land, other than the nine symbolic cities. The rest were the tribes, villages, and villages that were built in the wilderness.
Because in Dark Land, only these nine cities had clear and clean freshwater streams. That was why there were nine symbolic cities that existed since the establishment of the Dark Land. During this period of time, countless powers had been replaced, but these nine cities remained standing. They stood proudly on top of Dark Land, accepting the worship of everyone.
The tribes, villages, and villages were just places where some small powers lived. There was a small river beside him. Because there was no powerful strength or money. That was why they lived in the wilderness.
Xiao Jian left the village and followed the dense hoof prints at the entrance of the village. He tracked them for hundreds of miles. By evening, the sky had already darkened. Darkness covered the land, and the temperature also plummeted. Along with the whistling cold wind, it was truly bone-chilling.
However, Xiao Jian's fire elemental energy was not to be trifled with. It was just that after circulating the Golden Crow Form Transformation Formula for a few rounds, the coldness on his body gradually dissipated. When a martial artist reached around the Essence Warrior, they could barely see things at night. Not to mention Xiao Jian, this Late Period of Essence Master Stage warrior.
Suddenly, Xiao Jian vaguely saw a ruined Stone City not far away from him. In the Dark Land, there were still many such ruined Stone City. Firstly, some self-proclaimed powerful experts wanted to break the situation in the Dark Land and build it.
Secondly, it was built by some large tribes. However, for some unknown reason, all of them were destroyed in the end. No one understood the reason. Perhaps only the leaders of the nine major powers, who stood at the peak of the Dark Land, knew all kinds of reasons. There were also some old monsters who lived in seclusion in the desolate mountains and evil waters.
Xiao Jian looked not far away. The ruined Stone City that stood in the middle of the cold night. The pile of ruins recorded the vicissitudes of thousands of years. It was possible that those Bloodthirsty Bandits were hiding within.
Xiao Jian retracted his aura and quickly approached the Stone City. When he arrived at the entrance of Stone City, Xiao Jian couldn't help but feel slightly puzzled. There were no traces of people at the city's entrance. It was obvious that there were not many people there for a long time. Furthermore, there was not a trace of horse hooves. It was obvious that the mounted bandits had not entered the Stone City.
"They lost them?" Xiao Jian asked himself in his heart. However, the hoof print was clearly pointing at the ruined Stone City. Looking at the darkening sky and the bone-piercing cold weather, Xiao Jian slowly walked towards the inner part of the Stone City. Regardless of whether the group of bloodthirsty bandits were there or not, Xiao Jian still wanted to enter and avoid them. Or else, under such a cold night weather. . . Even Essencel General warriors would not be able to endure it.
Xiao Jian passed through the broken city gate and slowly entered the Stone City. Although the mounted gangsters might not be among them. However, Xiao Jian still cautiously spread out his Yuan consciousness and observed the situation in the dark night. After all, no one knew how long this Stone City had been abandoned. It was possible that it had already been occupied by some powerful Devil Beasts.
Also, the dense hoof prints of the Bloodthirsty Bandits had clearly pointed at the Stone City, so why had they suddenly disappeared from the city gates? All of this. . . Under the illumination of this dark night, it seemed rather strange. Luckily, Xiao Jian's mind was as hard as steel. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the courage to walk into this place. Under the reflection of the night, it was like a ferocious Devil Beast with its mouth wide open in the Stone City.
"Who is it?!" Suddenly, Xiao Jian felt as if there was a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness staring at him.
"Kaka! Kaka!" It seemed like a crow was screaming in the dark night, but it also seemed like a demon Yaksha had appeared. A mysterious voice resounded in the dark night. It was unknown which direction it came from.
Xiao Jian stood on the same spot. His Yuan consciousness was sent out in a frenzy, spreading to all directions around him.
All of a sudden, behind Xiao Jian, in the gap of the city wall, a strange blood shadow lunged at him, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. The gloomy ghost wind scared everyone so much that their hair stood on end.
The mysterious blood shadow clawed fiercely. Its bloody five fingers and sharp claws were aimed at Xiao Jian's head. The sharp blood colored Yuan energy directly cut open the circle of fire elemental energy flowing on Xiao Jian's body like tofu.
Luckily, Xiao Jian had noticed the opponent's sneak attack at the first possible moment. The wind elemental energy under his feet subconsciously circulated and floated away in a flash.
A strong smell of blood was emitted from the battlefield. It was so pungent that it made people faint.
"Die!" Xiao Jian looked at the broken black brocade robe on his body and his anger surged. If not. . . The Enchantment Golden Silkworm Armor had blocked the blood shadow's attack. Then he would definitely suffer some minor injuries. Immediately, both of his hands transformed into a shadow of a finger. "Five Fires Astral Blade!" Xiao Jian shouted angrily in his heart. On his hands, The flickering fire elemental energy immediately flew towards the blood shadow.
His body immediately transformed into five fire elemental energy blades in the air. In a flash, they transformed into a net of fire blades that enveloped the blood shadow.
Xiao Jian's reaction was fast, and he almost flashed away. He immediately attacked, so the blood shadow had not reacted yet. He was engulfed by the flaming net.
There was no sound coming from the flaming saber web. Xiao Jian did not hear the howling or begging that he had imagined. The flames churned, and in a moment, the blood red figure within was completely refined into nothingness.
The moment Xiao Jian refined the blood red figure. "Puchi!" In a room under the Stone City. A skinny middle-aged man with sunken eyes immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was slightly pale.
"Captain! What's wrong?" A few middle-aged men dressed in blood-red samurai clothes asked eagerly.
"Quick, send someone to notify the Blood Demon Protector! Just say that above Blood City, a formidable martial artist had arrived. They had already entered Blood City. My Blood Shadow Clone had just been scattered by him. " The middle-aged man known as the captain said with great difficulty.
The expressions of the middle-aged men wearing blood-colored warrior robes changed. "Heavens! The Blood Shadow Clone of the leader had actually been broken. One had to know that the leader's Blood Shadow Clone had always been successful! In the past, who knows how many powerful martial artists were killed!"
A quick-witted big man ran out of the room.
"I never thought I would meet a young expert from the Heavenly Dragon Academy here!" A gloomy voice came from all directions, followed by a slight cold wind.0
Xiao Jian stood on the spot with a calm expression, waiting for the voice's owner to arrive.
The entire abandoned ancient city was filled with gloomy sound waves. There were also waves of strong bloody demonic wind. The strong smell of blood made one nauseous.
Suddenly, Xiao Jian's expression changed, following the smell of blood. Xiao Jian inevitably inhaled a little, and immediately felt a little dizzy. Xiao Jian knew. There were signs of poisoning at this moment. The Golden Crow Form Transformation skill in his body started circulating. Wisps of blood-red gas were vaguely forced out of Xiao Jian's body. However. . . Xiao Jian did not show it. He continued to pretend to be poisoned. Secretly, he searched for the location of the voice's owner.
"You. . . You are so despicable! You actually used such a despicable method of poisoning?" Xiao Jian shouted angrily at the night sky with righteous indignation.
"Hehehehe. . . Hehehehe. . . " A gloomy and miserable laugh was heard once again. "Kid, You're really too naive and cute. Unexpectedly. . . You actually dare to talk about the principles of the Jianghu with us mounted gangsters? Haha. . . It has been a long time since I met such a fun kid like you. What a pity. You've already been poisoned by my blood poison. Otherwise, I wouldn't be willing to kill you. "
"Hmph! Pretending to be mysterious! Come out now. " Suddenly, Xiao Jian's hands swung down towards the northeast direction. "Puchi! Puchi! Puchi! A series of stone cutting sounds could be heard.
"Eh?" An exclamation of surprise could be heard. A tall middle-aged man wearing a blood-colored robe walked out from behind the collapsed rocks in the northeastern direction. His body was surrounded by a blood red barrier. Obviously, he was an Essencel General warrior.
