Chapter 241 Battle of the Populations
“I didn’t find anything. I just felt that when I was fighting with foreign monks, Senior Brother Xun’s actions were somewhat similar to the person who attacked me. There is no conclusive evidence. You must not have the intention to harm others. , not guarding against others "No. Even if he is a fellow sect, he has never been betrayed by a fellow sect." Lu Xiaotian shook his head, recalling the thrilling moment when Xun Xiu attacked him. If he hadn't practiced the Mystic Splitting Technique, he would have almost never done it. There was no chance of surviving Xun Xiu's hands.
You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. Su Qing and Luo Qian smacked these words, and after thinking about it carefully, they felt that Lu Xiaotian's behavior was indeed the same. Especially Su Qing, she has experienced more with Lu Xiaotian. Especially when encountering a crisis, Lu Xiaotian can always be alert one step ahead. This ability to see into people's hearts is not something ordinary people can possess.
"Senior Brother Xun, let's not talk about it. What's going on with Hu Ruining? Senior Brother Lu, what do you see is wrong?" Su Qing asked curiously.
"It's just an intuition, I can't tell. If I really saw something was wrong with him, how could I let him leave so easily. There is no basis for making assumptions. If the result is not that, it is just a matter of saying it. It’s no use worrying. Let’s just be more careful later.” Lu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled.
Su Qing snorted slightly, obviously not very satisfied with Lu Xiaotian's reply, but Lu Xiaotian didn't want to say it, and she didn't have any good solution. Luo Qian, on the other hand, frowned slightly and seemed to be remembering something. He just thought about it again, but there was nothing he could do. You can find something out of the ordinary. Just because Lu Xiaotian said this, Luo Qian was somewhat concerned.
After Hu Ruining left, Su Qing naturally did not take the two of them in circles, and the three of them rushed directly to the northwest. At night, we stopped at the foot of a mountain to rest. They don't need to eat once every half a day like ordinary people, but it is quite laborious to continuously fly over such a large area to search for Ningjin Fruits. Without consuming Yunyuan Pearls and saving elixirs, they can meditate. It is very necessary to restore mana. Lu Xiaotian was also meditating with his eyes closed. After an hour, the mana he had consumed before was almost restored. As for the Yunyuan Pearl, it contained twice as much mana as he had at this time. For him at this time, it was of great significance. The small effect is equivalent to more than doubling the ability to continue combat. Presumably the one on Su Qing's body was even more impressive, it was enough for her to continue using the fish scale whip for a while.
"Quak" a hoarse and unpleasant sound sounded, a bit like the cry of a crow.
Lu Xiaotian, Luo Qian, and Su Qing stood up in surprise at the same time, and there was a sound of flapping wings in the distance.
"Monster birds, listening to this formation, I'm afraid I don't know how many monster birds there are." Luo Qian's face turned pale. The foundation-building monk's soul was so powerful that he could feel that the number of monster birds in the distance far exceeded that of ordinary people. level of imagination. Monsters on the ground that are not good at flying pose little threat to them, but monster birds are different. Even if they fly into the sky, they may face endless pursuit.
"They may not be coming for us, but we can't alert this monster beast. Each of us should restrain our auras and don't alert the other party."
Lu Xiaotian also had a solemn look on his face. Monster beasts that live in groups are usually not very individual. Strong, likely to survive in hostile environments, and preserved in such astonishing numbers, they are usually extremely united and exclusive. Once an enemy is discovered and attacked in groups, ants can even kill an elephant.
Zhizhi
In the night, there was another cry and the sound of flapping wings. Several people looked at each other in shock. Such sounds were heard from all directions, and they didn't know where to escape.
"There is a cave over there, let's go in and take shelter first." Exposing yourself to the wild like this is not an option, as you might be discovered by the other party. Lu Xiaotian pointed to a cave dozens of miles away.
Su Qing and Luo Qian nodded. With the distance of tens of feet, it was still possible for a few people to pass by concealing their presence.
Several people entered the cave one after another. In the cave, more than a dozen second- to third-level hedgehog monsters were knocked down by several people.
Boom
The sounds of explosions outside were heard from time to time, and the scorching temperature formed heat waves.
This is a large number of demon birds fighting. Although it is pitch dark in the cave, it does not affect their ability to see. Each other can see the surprise on each other's faces.
Lu Xiaotian squinted his eyes and looked at the two groups fighting for life and death in the night sky. A group of small black finches were fire crows, and the croaking sounds came from the mouths of these fire crows. Fire crows, as the name suggests, look like crows, but the small fireballs they spit out are extraordinary. These fire crows cover the sky and are densely packed in the sky. There is no end in sight, and no one knows how many there are. It’s just that Lu Xiaotian can see He also felt a little numb. Not to mention him, even the Golden Core cultivator might be in danger of dying if he was surrounded by so many fire crows. Every fire crow has second to third level strength, and there are also very few fourth level birds.
The ones fighting the fire crows were another group of dark red fire bats. The dark red fire bat can not only spit small fireballs, but also has sharp teeth. Whenever there is a chance, pounce on it and bite the fire crow. The overall strength of the fire bats is similar to that of the fire crows, and there are also densely packed groups in the sky. The actual number is unclear.
"Will these fire bats or fire crows rush into our cave?" Su Qing said with a pale face, even though the Yunyuan Pearl on her body could allow her to persist for a long time. , but the number of these monster birds is simply enough to make people collapse.
"Probably not, at least until they defeat the other side, these monster birds will not care about anything else. Besides, with such a big area around, there are more than just us." Lu Xiaotian shook his head.
“Then what should we do now?”
"What can we do? Wait until the fire crows and fire bats completely decide the winner. It's a mess outside now. If we go out, we will be the targets of attacks. Whether it's the fire crows or the fire bats, I'm afraid they will attack us. Treat it as a threat." Lu Xiaotian smiled bitterly and shook his head. When he paid attention to Hu Ruining before, he had already been careful about any potential threats around him. Unexpectedly, I still overlooked a part of it, but these demon birds came and went without a trace. They happened to be in the area where the two demon birds were fighting. I am afraid that even if they were elsewhere, given the numbers of the two populations, they might not be in the same situation.
Su Qing looked a little unwilling, but there was no good way. I could only sit down depressedly.
The three of them sat in a corner of the cave, waiting for the two demon birds to decide the winner. After waiting for three days, the ground was already covered with a thick layer of corpses of demonic birds. The number of fire bats and fire crows in the sky has become sparse, but at a glance, they are still countless small black dots. There is no end.
Quack
The fire crows are as powerful as the fire bats, but their numbers are not as good as the fire bats. After three days of fierce fighting, a large number of people were lost, and the population seemed to be much thinner. Finally, Unable to hold on any longer, the leading fifth-level fire crow whined several times, forced the fire bat king back, and began to retreat with the rest of the group. This extremely tragic race war ended with the Fire Bat's tragic victory. There were squeaks of excitement in the air.
The fire bats chased for a while, and then the dense fire bats in the air scattered and flew to the surrounding rocks, trees, and even caves.
"What do these fire bats want to do?" Su Qing asked with a tight look.
“I don’t know, I think I defeated the Fire Crow, and now I want to consolidate the territory.” Lu Xiaotian secretly guessed that after repelling the biggest enemy, he would eliminate the alien threats on his territory.
Looking at the fire crow eggs that were pushed out of the nest and smashed to the ground by fire bats on the opposite hillside not far away, Lu Xiaotian suddenly understood in his heart that these fire bats were intruders and were driven away. The original owner was Fire Crow. Having snatched the opponent's territory, now it is natural to avoid future troubles forever.
"We can't stay in this place any longer. The fire crows are not too far away from here now. Once they are far away, the fire bats will have no other threats and our situation will become even more difficult. Let's go!"
Lu Xiaotian doesn't care about Su either. Whether Qing and Luo Qian agreed or not, they rushed out.
"Senior Brother Lu, wait for me." Su Qing rushed out quickly.
"Zhi" Fire Bat noticed that a foreign race broke into sight, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of Fire Bats rushed towards them from all directions.
“Go in the direction that Fire Crow left.” Lu Xiaotian shouted in a deep voice.
Hundreds of low-level fire bats surrounding them wouldn't pose much of a threat to them, but if there were thousands, it would be really difficult.
Several people changed into ordinary magical weapons one after another. After all, there were too many fire bats and they couldn't be killed at once. The Danyuan magical weapon was extremely powerful, but it consumed a lot of mana. Conducive to protracted combat.
Lu Xiaotian was about to sacrifice Qing Fengfan so that the three of them could leave. Unexpectedly, Su Qing had already taken the lead in taking out a crescent-shaped shuttle.
"Come up! Come up." Su Qingjiao shouted, and she jumped onto the shuttle lightly, leading the two of them to rush forward at a faster speed than before.
Chi! A bolt of thunder and lightning flashed in the air, and dozens of fire bats fell from the sky in a mass of blackened screams. On the other side, Lu Xiaotian put on a black flying sword and was also rapidly harvesting the lives of the fire bats. Without using the alchemy weapon, the power of Lu Xiaotian's attack was obviously inferior to that of Luo Qian's attack.
Squeak -——
Six fourth to fifth level fire bats saw the ferocity of Luo Qian and the others, and immediately gathered together and rushed towards the crescent-shaped shuttle controlled by Su Qing. The speed of the crescent-shaped shuttle is already faster than that of ordinary foundation-building monks, but compared with demonic birds like fire bats that are good at flying, the advantages are relatively limited. Especially among the six high-level demon birds, three are fifth-level, and their cultivation level is almost the same as that of Luo Qian and Su Qing. Once they encounter them head-on, they can naturally kill these monster birds at some cost, but their speed cannot be restrained from slowing down. Once caught in the siege of a swarm of fire bats, the outcome will undoubtedly be disastrous. Just with the way these high-level fire bats are charging towards them, if they don't slow down and hit them head-on, the result won't be too wonderful. Su Qing and Luo Qing looked worried, but their eyes looked at Lu Xiaotian at the same time.
“Keep moving forward, no need to slow down.” Lu Xiaotian narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn’t take this level of attack seriously. The index finger of his left hand stretched forward, and the ice soul mysterious sound was activated without any warning.
The low-level fire bat seemed to have fixed its shape in the air, lost its vitality in a moment, and fell directly to the ground. The movements of the six high-level fire bats also stagnated for a short time. After all, only the fifth-level peak fire bat king has a slightly higher cultivation level than Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian is now at the foundation construction level, and his spiritual consciousness is far higher than that of monks of the same level. , whose cultivation level is lower than Lu Xiaotian, without special magic weapon protection, it is extremely difficult to withstand this move. Although the strength of these fire bats is not bad, they are only demon birds after all. Apart from their own strength, they are not like human monks who can possess various magical weapons. There is no doubt that they were attacked. Although the stagnation was short-lived, for Lu Xiaotian In other words, a single moment can already determine a lot of things. The black flying sword flashed in the air, and six high-level fire bats, without exception, fell from the air with their heads covered in blood.
Su Qing looked at Lu Xiaotian with admiration. Every time at this critical moment, under the seemingly ordinary appearance, Lu Xiaotian always did something amazing and turned the world around in an instant.
Luo Qian was even more surprised and admired. Last time, he fought with Lu Xiaotian, Xun Xiu and others against the foreign monks. Lu Xiaotian killed several foreign monks in the blink of an eye. After all, he did not witness the whole process during the battle. But now Lu Xiaotian raised his hand to kill six high-level fire bats with extraordinary speed, but it was clear from beginning to end that even the Danyuan magic weapon could not do this. If it wasn't the alchemy weapon, what could have such power? Could it be that Lu Xiaotian has other extremely powerful treasures on his body? But just now Lu Xiaotian made no move, and showed no sign of using the treasure.
Luo Qian was puzzled. The death of six high-level fire bats in an instant was also a huge loss to the huge fire bat population. These six high-level fire bats not only had great combat power, Strong and extremely intelligent, it played a great stabilizing role in the battle with the fire crows just now. If it weren't for these guys, if they wanted to defeat the fire crows, they would probably have to pay a higher price. Seeing Lu Xiaotian's action at this time, Luo Qian realized that even if he now had the Danyuan Magical Artifact, he was far from Lu Xiaotian's opponent. At least most of his strength was on that thunder gun. Without the thunder gun, he would be less powerful than Lu Xiaotian. Ordinary monks are more powerful, but Lu Xiaotian is still very powerful even without the blazing fire sword, and it is not even known whether he has other powerful methods.
Without the sluggish speed of high-level fire bats, and after spending a certain amount of mana to kill many fire bats, Lu Xiaotian and others finally broke out of the siege. Of course, maybe because Lu Xiaotian escaped in the direction in which the fire crows fled, the fire bats felt that if they pursued him too fast, they might cause another battle with the fire crows. The Fire Bat finally won, and now that they have the territory, they are unwilling to suffer any greater losses. After screaming unwillingly for a while, he ended the pursuit and continued to destroy the fire crow eggs and destroy thousands of fire crow nests.
