After Wu Hao and his three fellow disciples caught up with this female disciple of the White Crane Sword Village, a hint of playfulness appeared on his face, and he asked with a sneer, "Then run away, why don't you run away?"

When the female disciple of the White Crane Sword Village heard this, her face resolutely scolded: "You disciples of the Chenyang Sect dare to do such a despicable thing, my master will never let you go." ”

When Wu Hao heard this threat, he shook his head with great disdain, and said jokingly: "Yes, but do you still have a chance to escape and tell the truth?" Without waiting for the other party to answer, Wu Hao paced to her, squatted down and continued: "Little beauty, you may not know yet, you people from Baihe Sword Village, except for a few of you, everyone else is already dead and can't die anymore, and do you know why you can still escape here with internal injuries after being hit by me?"

Seeing the other party's angry face and resentful eyes, Wu Hao stretched out a hand and pinched her pointed chin tightly, and said sarcastically: "It seems that you are really ignorant, I'm not afraid to tell you, the reason why I keep you is actually to slow down the speed of your entire team, and at the same time, I can also use this to bring you closer to this place little by little, if my expectations are not bad, your fellow senior sisters and sisters should have just left here not long ago, right?"

"You scumbag!"

"What's so despicable or despicable? It's just taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, tsk, but I have to admit that you disciples from the White Crane Sword Village have really a beautiful look and a good look, but it's a pity that my son is still in a hurry now, so I don't have time to kiss you." ”

As he spoke, Wu Hao's thick eyebrows and big eyes suddenly flashed a trace of fierceness, and he saw that his big hand that pinched the other party's cheek broke the other party's neck with a slight force.

Looking at this female disciple who was lying on the ground without blinking, Wu Hao stood up, and then said with a blank face on his face: "Throw her into the stream, we will continue to chase, this group of disciples of the White Crane Sword Village, not a single one can be left." ”

......

When Xu Yan came to the bottom of the stalagmite at the very edge, Xiao Cai, who was hidden in his sleeve, said bluntly: "You are very lucky, on this stalagmite, I feel the breath of the golden hairpin stone orchid, but unfortunately, on the stalagmite, there are many human breaths, and they are about to reach the top, so even if you rush now, it is estimated that you will not be able to catch up!"

Hearing the other party's somewhat playful and mischievous tone, Xu Yan's face was solemn, this spring hunt, the birth of the golden hairpin stone orchid can be said to be quite few, he currently only has the very immature golden hairpin stone orchid can be handed in as the final result, therefore, every time a golden hairpin stone orchid appears in the future, it is his must fight, and he can't be sure how long the golden hairpin stone orchid on the stalagmite in front of him has grown for a long time, but he can't think of it more immature than the one in his hand.

Xu Yan didn't hesitate, he directly grabbed the climbing vine growing on the stalagmite, and climbed up frantically, its speed was as fast as the wind, and Cai Zhenjing, who was behind him, was instantly stunned.

This stalagmite is also a hundred zhang high, but because of the small color, Xu Yan no longer needs to look around the stalagmite as before, and can only rise at a very slow speed, this time, he just crossed this dark brown poisonous gas mist cover in the blink of an eye, and rose to a height of more than fifty zhang.

However, when he actually climbed to the top of this stalagmite mountain, he was still a beat slower after all, because on the top of the mountain, a group of disciples wearing cyan robes had already arrived first.

Xu Yan did not directly expose his figure, but hid behind a boulder. Through the gap in the dense forest, he secretly watched the group of young disciples who were looking for the golden hairpin stone orchid on the top of the mountain in a scattered form, and in his consciousness he communicated with Xiao Cai and said: "Xiao Cai, can you detect the specific location of the golden hairpin stone orchid? The area on the top of this stalagmite mountain is still larger than the stalagmite you entrenched in before, if it doesn't take about two quarters of an hour, it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to complete the inspection, if you can sense its specific location, maybe I can secretly pick it up before they find out." ”

When Xiaocai heard this, she stretched out the snake's head from its sleeve, spit out the snake letter, and then replied, "I feel it." ”

When Xu Yan heard this, his face suddenly became happy, "Where is it?"

Xiao Cai smiled and said, "It's in the middle of this mountain, there is a rock wall, but it's about to be found, if you rush through it now, it may be in time, but only if they let you rush through it smoothly." ”

Xu Yan heard that the other party still had the intention to tease him, and his face couldn't help but darken, but his figure had already secretly used the cover of the dense forest to start moving forward.

"Second young master, second young master, I found it, Jin Hai Shi Lan, it is really Jin Hai Shi Lan!"

Hearing someone crying out in ecstasy at this moment in front of him, Zhou Yu's somewhat tired face suddenly woke up, he walked forward quickly, and saw that in the bare rock layer in the middle, there was indeed a flower that was completely different from other plants, swaying in the spring breeze. Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu, who was still standing six or seven feet away, couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help but scold: "This damn golden hairpin Shilan, I didn't expect it to be so rare, it seems that those old guys were calculated in advance, but we finally found one, okay, since you found it, you can pick it quickly." ”

Hearing this, the Yunlan Sect disciple who discovered this golden hairpin stone orchid nodded in response, immediately squatted down, knelt on one knee, and took out a shovel specially used to dig up medicinal herbs in his storage bag.

Xu Yan, who was lurking in the distance, couldn't help but let out a wry smile in his heart when he saw this scene, compared to the other party, he was a very rough layman, because no matter what kind of medicinal herbs, he used a broken dagger to provoke them all by the roots, how could this Yunlan Sect disciple be so meticulous.

However, just as this Yunlan Sect disciple was about to use the medicine shovel he brought to dig out this golden hairpin stone fence that looked to be about thirty or forty years old, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a fierce aura behind him, rapidly approaching him.

He turned his head to check the origin of this breath, but only to see a cold cold light flash before his eyes.

This cold light passed through his neck rapidly, like a dazzling electric light, and then he even heard a very soft "snort" in his ears, and then this cold light completely disappeared from his sight.

This Yunlan Sect disciple looked at the cold light that flew out in the blink of an eye, and he was still a little incredulous in his heart, "How can the speed of this flying sword be so fast?"

Then he felt a slight pain in his neck.

The Yunlan Sect's disciple tried to find out the depth of the scar, so he twisted his neck slightly, but this slight movement caused a small cut to crack directly from his neck, and then, the boiling blood gushed out inexorably like a hot spring hidden deep underground.

Seeing that this disciple who had been by his side for many years suddenly died tragically in front of him, Zhou Yu's face instantly turned iron blue.

When that cold light appeared, he felt that this was an incomparable sword aura, but he couldn't help but that its flying speed was too fast, it could be described as fleeting, and without the slightest preparation, he couldn't intercept it between the lightning and flint. Without waiting for him to be furious at the sudden death of this disciple, he felt that around this dense forest, a more majestic and intense sword intent had quietly formed.

Countless pine needles burst into them from the dense forest, looking dense, like thousands, and on each pine needle, it seemed to carry a fierce sword aura.

When Zhou Yu saw this scene, his face was shocked, and he suddenly shouted: "Enemy attack, quickly draw your sword to make a defense!"

When many disciples of the Yunlan Sect heard this, they did not dare to slack off, and they all pulled out the long swords behind their backs, and controlled the Dao Dao sword qi to slash at these countless pine needles that were as dense as falling rain silver needles.

The sword qi in the sky exploded at the top of the stalagmites.

Countless plants and broken leaves were rolled up.

At this moment, everyone felt as if they were caught in the wind of a riot, Zhou Yu waved the sword weapon in his hand with a gloomy face, resisting the pine needle sword qi surging towards him one after another, but immediately he clearly felt that although the sword qi in front of him looked magnificent, its power was quite ordinary, even if it was any sword cultivator who stepped into the three floors, he could easily block this level of sword qi.

Just as he was still caught in the idea of why the other party wanted to use such an unattractive sword qi, in the midst of this storm of sword qi rolling wildly, a figure quickly rushed towards him.

The speed of this figure was so fast that Zhou Yu was almost shocked, because the distance of dozens of zhang was already in the blink of an eye.

Xu Yan held Fuyao in his hand, his face was cold, and when he was only five or six zhang away from the other party, he swung the long sword in his hand towards the opponent.

A brilliant silver light erupted from his sword.

It is the last form of the Seven Star Sword Technique.

Faced with this kind of moment, Xu Yan naturally didn't dare to hide the slightest clumsiness.

Feeling the powerful sword qi that Xu Yan carried on this silver light, Zhou Yu also had a hint of jealousy in his heart, but he also did not stop at all, and immediately swung the long sword in his hand out a few brilliant sword flowers, and then slashed towards Xu Yan who was rushing towards him head-on.

"Boom!"

There was a bang.

The two huge sword qi collided head-on in the air, and then cracked and exploded.

A powerful wave of air spread out in all directions from the place of collision.

The next moment, Xu Yan, who was still rushing forward, saw that the seven-star sword qi he used was directly blown away by the other party in a single look, and on the other hand, the other party's sword qi was still slashed at himself with Xu Xu's powerful aftermath after the battle.

Before he had time to react, Zhou Yu's sword qi fell directly on Xu Yan's chest, and his body flew out upside down.

"This person's strength is infinitely close to a five-story building. ”

This is the first feeling that Xu Yan had in his heart when he flew out upside down. Then, a large splash of blood poured out of his chest, and along with his body, it fell from mid-air to the solid rock.

"Bang".

Zhou Yu heard the voice of the sinister thief not far away after being hit hard by his own sword and falling to the ground, and he couldn't help but feel a wave of contempt in his heart. He had already sensed that the sword techniques used by Xu Yan could be described as quite mysterious, but because the latter's cultivation had not yet stepped into the middle three realms, he could not exert the true power of these sword techniques at all.

"Okay, you Xu Yan, I won't go to your trouble, but you have the audacity to take the initiative to find the door, and even hide in the shadows and attack and kill a disciple of my Yunlan Sect. After Zhou Yu recognized Xu Yan, his slender eyes narrowed slightly, and he said angrily.

When Xu Yan heard this, he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth, but he did not answer.

Zhou Yu continued: "But this is just right, and it will save me from looking for you all over the mountains." ”

After saying this, Zhou Yu, who was seven or eight feet away, strode slowly towards Xu Yan with his sword, and wanted to attack him again.

Xu Yan, who was half-lying on the ground, saw him walking towards him, and immediately pinched the seal with his hand, controlling the Fuyao that fell to the ground to burst out instantly, and at the same time, his seemingly seriously injured body was like a cheetah that had been lurking for a long time, bursting out with amazing speed in an instant, and rushed towards the golden hairpin stone orchid on the other side.

"Bell!"

A piercing metallic sound rang out in the air.

Brought up a string of sparks to splash around.

Zhou Yu waved his hand with the long sword in his hand, and easily shook Xu Yan's sway, but then when he saw that Xu Yan no longer rushed towards him, but ran towards the golden hairpin stone orchid with all his strength, his face changed instantly, and he hurriedly shouted coldly to those fellow disciples who were closer to the golden hairpin stone orchid: "His target is the golden hairpin stone orchid, hurry, stop him for me!"

After hearing this, several disciples of the Yunlan Sect who had just recovered from the sword qi in the sky rushed towards Xu Yan, who was already close to the golden hairpin Shilan, regardless of all the embarrassment on their bodies.

"Flutter".

A long sword finally slashed directly at his left arm before Xu Yan rushed to the golden hairpin Shilan, which made him feel a huge pain, however, Xu Yan ignored the sword wound at all.

He didn't dodge or dodge, and the speed under his feet did not decrease but increased, and he directly shook off the Yunlan Sect disciple who had attacked him from the side, and then, until he was only a short distance of about a zhang away from the golden hairpin stone orchid, another long sword slashed horizontally towards his neck.

In the face of this aggressive sword, Xu Yan's deep eyes did not show a trace of panic, only absolute calmness. His whole person stopped in an instant, facing the sky and fell backwards, but in fact, it seemed to be not down, because when the long sword of this Yunlan Sect disciple swept over his head, his whole person immediately turned over, and then rolled backwards, and came to the front of the golden hairpin Shilan.

After many obstacles and at the cost of several sword wounds, Xu Yan, who came to the Golden Hairpin Stone Orchid with difficulty, did not hesitate at all, directly reached out and held the flower stalk of the Golden Hairpin Stone Orchid, and pulled it out of the crack in the rock with a very rude method, and then put it into his storage bag.

In the distance, Zhou Yu, who was pretending to be seriously injured by Xu Yan and was rushing frantically, saw this scene with anger in his eyes.

"Xu Yan, you don't want to escape from this stalagmite alive today!" Zhou Yu shouted angrily, and the long sword in his hand continued to swing a sword at Xu Yan.

A sword aura that was stronger than before burst out from his sword.

Xu Yan, who was still half-lying on the ground, saw this, and he didn't dare to take it hard, this kind of powerful sword cultivation close to the five-story building, even if he had the martial arts cultivation physique of the five-grade realm, he didn't dare to resist indiscriminately, after all, the sword cultivation major was the way of killing, and the power was amazing.

As we all know, once the sword cultivator enters the middle three realm, the advantage over the martial arts will slowly appear, which is a fact that even a martial cultivator like Xu Yan can't change.

So, Xu Yan hurriedly stretched out his right hand, grabbed it in the air, and controlled the Fuyao that had been knocked away by the other party before to fall back into his hand, and then he danced Fuyao and forcibly slashed out a seven-star sword qi and greeted it.

There was another boom.

But helplessly, the gap in kendo cultivation is too obvious, Xu Yan's sword qi was undoubtedly completely dispersed by the other party again, and seeing the other party's residual power attacking him again, Xu Yan had no choice but to expose his identity as a martial artist.

As for letting Xiaocai's body block?

Of course, this is possible, but if Xu Yan fails to kill all the people in front of him afterwards, then the information that he has taken in a medicine beast will be completely spread, and once that time comes, his situation will only be more dangerous than now, after all, the spirit beast of the medicine beast is not only very rare and precious, but it is really too difficult to encounter, but all cultivators will definitely be moved by it.

It is recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas of the Five States" that a cultivator whose strength is higher than that of a medicine beast can be the first to perceive the crisis and choose to flee without getting close to it, while a person whose strength is lower than it may become food in its belly. People like Xu Yan who can challenge spirit beasts at a higher level may exist in the Wuzhou Continent, but they are definitely very rare, and the most important thing is that even Xu Yan, if he didn't take out the transformation recipe as a condition of exchange at that time, Xiaocai would not have agreed to become his spirit pet at all, which Xu Yan and Xiaocai both knew that no matter how bad it was, that is, the latter would just let him leave after returning the flower stalk and three petals of the hundred-year-old golden nodice orchid.

A golden light and shadow finally appeared on Xu Yan's left hand, and turned into a fist shadow and slammed into Zhou Yu's sword qi.

Seeing that the other party actually used the martial arts true qi between life and death, Zhou Yu, who was frantically rushing behind, was immediately stunned, but then in his slender eyes, there was an even stronger killing intent.

"I didn't expect you to be a fellow practitioner of sword martial arts, so it will be even more difficult for you to stay, Xu Yan, let's die quickly." ”

Xu Yan saw that he was so endless, and the other disciples of the Yunlan Sect were also rushing towards him frantically, he did not choose to fight again, but chose to pull his legs and run wildly. Although he is not incapable of fighting them, and even if he uses all his strength without reservation, he may be able to annihilate them all.

However, in the end, he still didn't choose to do this, because he was worried that those people hiding behind him, if they got the news, they would inevitably become highly wary of him, and maybe even someone would take the lead in escaping back to the Lotus Sect regardless of the victory or loss of this spring hunt.

Xu Yan didn't want this situation to occur in the first task of the spring hunt, because this was not in line with his ultimate purpose of participating in this spring hunt, so he could only pretend that he was still a martial artist who had just entered the fourth grade, and a sword cultivator who only had a three-story cultivation, only in this way could he make Zhou Yu in front of him and those people feel that his strength was not too strong, and he was even easily killed by them.
