The two-legged flaming monster didn't even have the chance to make a sound. The light in its eyes suddenly went out, as if all of its life force had been sucked out, it suddenly fell to the ground and died less than half a meter away from Chu Yunsheng's feet!
Instant kill!
Everything happened in a split second. The middle-aged village chief's eyes were wide open, but he still didn't understand what was going on. Because ordinary people's eyes couldn't see that beam of light at all. But at this time, the black fog that drifted over from the forbidden area helped him "explain" the whole thing.
In the middle-aged village chief's understanding, that black fog was more deadly than anything else. It was not impossible for it to kill a ferocious monster in an instant.
But he didn't understand why Chu Yunsheng wasn't afraid at all. Moreover, after the black fog killed the monster, Chu Yunsheng didn't even look at it. Instead, he just carried Old Yu and staggered forward.
How could there be such a person in the nest 20 kilometers away!?
Although he was confused, the village chief didn't dare to stay here any longer. Not to mention that he didn't want to encounter any more monsters, even the black fog that was drifting away for some unknown reason was extremely dangerous to him.
After calling everyone back, he hurriedly left the place. Of course, he didn't let go of the monster's body that had just died on the ground.
…
In the underground of the broken peak settlement, two batches of black shadows quietly arrived at a hidden dry ravine not far away one after another.
"Are you sure it's here?" One of the black-robed silhouettes split off from the group. With a shake of their bodies, they appeared at the top of the ravine with the best view. Their beautiful eyes stared ahead.
"I can't be wrong, Yi Zhang, even if this kid has turned into ashes, my people can still smell him!" The leader of the first group of shadows said respectfully. His face was buried in the shadow of the large robe.
"If that's the case, why didn't you act immediately! He escaped from your hands, and I intercepted him again. Now at most, he only has one breath left! " Yi Zhang seemed to be very dissatisfied with their arrangement. He thought that they were scared by that kid, so he inadvertently added a little sarcasm in his tone.
"Leader Yi, you're appointed by the higher-ups, so you don't know the complexity of the situation down there. In this kind of settlement, most of the people will go out to look for food like rats at this time. Only when the darkness shrouds them will they 'crawl' back to their nests. The orders from the higher-ups are to capture all of them at once. So …" The leader who came first naturally heard the sarcasm in the woman's words, but he didn't dare to show a trace of anger. Instead, he explained very respectfully.
He had heard some rumors about this "parachuted" Captain Yi. It was said that a big shot of Dingding Peak had taken a fancy to her aptitude during an inadvertent inspection and intended to train her.
If it was someone else, it would be fine. Even if the rumor was not true, they would just have to be careful and respect it. However, it was said that this big shot had once followed that person. Although that person had only existed in legends and no one knew if it was true or not, with the real power of this big shot, it was unknown how many people would be beheaded and their families would be exterminated with just a word!
Who dared to take this risk? Even if it was just groundless rumors, he had to be very alert and deal with it carefully.
"Hmm," the woman frowned, looked up at Duan Feng, and nodded: "you are right, I didn't consider it thoroughly."
That leader didn't dare to be complacent, he quickly said modestly: "these are trivial things, with Yi Zhang's intelligence, you will know it in a few days."
The woman smiled and didn't say anything. She turned around and leaned against the dry ditch wall, closed her eyes, and rested for a while. Starting from three days ago, they had been continuously chasing the "defectors" for three days and three nights. Although she was very sleepy, she was more worried about this imperial order. If they couldn't complete it well, even she couldn't imagine the thunderous anger and disappointment of the higher-ups.
After a while, in the ditch, a third group of black robed shadows appeared and gathered together.
"They are back!" At this time, before the third group of black shadows had time to rest, they heard the heavy voice of that leader.
…
Chu Yunsheng didn't know the way, so he walked behind the village chief Gao. The little girl in his arms had already woken up, but he already knew that his face was "disgusting", so he didn't dare to talk or laugh.
But even so, the little girl knew that Chu Yunsheng was not a monster, so she was no longer as scared as before. However, under the influence of the psychological effect, she still tightly closed her eyes and stiffened her thin body. She didn't dare to look at Chu Yunsheng. Her dirty little face also looked a little cute because of the nervousness.
From afar, with his Yuan Tian stage three eyesight, although his organs had aged a lot, he could still see that a huge mountain had been pushed down, and it was leaning on the top of a short hill next to it. The gap under the mountain had become a natural shelter from the wind and rain after so many years.
But coupled with these people's primitive clothes and weapons, if it wasn't for the fact that the village chief Gao was still wearing the tattered clothes of the age of light, he would have thought that he had returned to the primitive era.
He raised his head and looked at the sky. Although it was still as gloomy as before, there was something different about it … A feeling of "seeing the world again" slowly flowed into his heart. In this world, how many people knew what kind of torture and suffering he had suffered in that space?
"How should I address you, Elder?" Seeing that they were almost at the entrance of the village, the village chief Gao still had a trace of vigilance towards Chu Yunsheng, who he didn't know, so he finally opened his mouth and asked.
But it was not his fault. Two years ago, the cave settlement that was more than 20 kilometers away from them was saved by an unknown person. Not only did that animal not know how to repay their kindness, but it also … caused a lot of casualties in just one night. Their village was reduced from one of the best settlements to a lowly one. Otherwise, the Broken Peak settlement would not be able to compete with them.
Chu Yunsheng glanced at the village chief Gao and said with a sad tone, "the old me is already dead, I just came back to life. But I can't throw away the surname that my ancestors gave me, you can call me Old Chu!"
The village chief Gao thought for a second, but he didn't know anyone with the surname Chu, so he raised his head and asked tentatively, "Grandpa Chu, my surname is Gao, I am the village chief here. I don't know who you are calling from? Is there anyone else at home? "
Chu Yunsheng knew that his surname was Gao. He had heard other people talking about him on the way here, so he also knew that the village chief Gao was doubtful. But his heart was already cold, he just wanted to find a quiet place to stay, listen to the sound of the wind, look at the moving dark clouds, and feel the freedom to breathe …
After a while, he smiled and said, "they are all gone."
The village chief Gao still wanted to say something, but the young man who was guarding the village saw them and immediately ran towards them.
"What's wrong? San Mao? " The village chief Gao was startled. He didn't have time to care about Chu Yunsheng, so he grabbed San Mao's arm and said.
"It's second brother, uncle Fang's second brother is back!" San Mao was not a awakened person, so he was obviously out of breath after running for such a long distance. Another reason was that he was hungry.
"It doesn't matter if he is back, he has been away for so many years, I thought he was dead!" The village chief Gao thought that it was something serious, but it turned out that it was a young man who ran away from home and said that he wanted to find a way out. So he murmured while walking, "he still has the conscience to come back, his mother's eyes almost went blind from crying!"
"Village chief, you should go and take a look, something big happened, when second brother came back, he was covered in blood, and he fainted. Oh right, before he fainted, he said something like 'they, they are coming!'. If you are not here, no one will dare to do anything … "San Mao said hurriedly.
Hearing that, the village chief Gao frowned his brows and cursed, "this little bastard, as soon as he came back, he caused me trouble!" While he was talking, he also quickened his pace.
When he was almost at the entrance of the village, Chu Yunsheng glanced at a place far away from him. There was a faint fluctuation of Yuan Qi, but it couldn't escape his perception of the four-dimensional space.
Although his body and bones were almost exhausted, the sixth nerve-like line in the unknown space — he vaguely knew that it was actually the zero-dimensional space that the veiled woman mentioned. After so many years of tempering, the sixth nerve-like line in the unknown space had already become very bright. Plus, because of his cultivation method, he was even more sensitive to the fluctuation of the fourth-dimensional space.
Not only that, but in the fourth and fifth stages, the seventh nerve-like line even appeared faintly, and it was that nerve-like line that allowed him to control the only nail that was knocked down. The other six nails were still connected to the ancient book. Although they were no longer fighting with each other, they could not remove the Life Force imprint on them.
The nail that was knocked down was the one among the seven nails that was trying to absorb his Life Force. When Chu Yunsheng's Entropy Life Force was almost destroyed, the battlefield that was built by the seven nails and the ancient book using his Life Force as the foundation was suddenly shattered. At this critical moment, the seven nails had already lost the upper hand, so they could not take the opportunity to absorb the last trace of Life Force. In the end, the nail that was restraining his Life Force was also knocked down.
However, the owner of the seven nails was just as powerful as Chu Yunsheng, so it was not that easy to use. After all, this was its Origin Weapon, not Chu Yunsheng's own Origin Weapon. He used it to kill the flaming two-legged monster just now. At the same time, the weak seventh nerve-like line also began to dim down.
However, it also brought some benefits, which was what Chu Yunsheng needed the most right now — Life Force!
The ability of this nail was very strange. It could take the enemy's life force in a split second, and it could even take the enemy's life force without a drop of blood!
Chu Yunsheng did not have any experience or reference to compare the thickness of a monster's Life Force with his original Life Force. However, after being "filtered" and "purified" by the black vortex, very little of the Life Force actually reached the zero-dimensional space. Most of them were rejected by the black vortex.
But no matter how little it was, it was still Life Force. For Chu Yunsheng's current situation, any little bit of Life Force was a huge help. At least, his bones would not creak that much.
Relying on this little bit of Life Force, Chu Yunsheng noticed the slight movement of Yuan Qi in the distance. Through the dim light, he saw many black shadows spread out in all directions, blocking all the exits of the settlement. Dragging a flaming sword, they swept across the scorched land and surrounded Chu Yunsheng.
The wind blew up their black robes, making a rustling sound.
Chu Yunsheng's pupils shrank, as if he was recalling something from a long time ago — Sword, flame …
He hadn't seen it for a long time.
*****
He was begging for it!
