Lan Xuan and Xuan Ji climbed and rested. They struggled all the way. Seeing that the top of the cliff was near, they were already dog-tired.
Only Shi Yuyan, who was dressed in white like a fairy, could always be at ease.
The old and the young couldn't help looking at each other with envy in their hearts.
It could only be said that the Heaven Swallowing Technique was really too heaven-defying. As the innate secret technique of the ancient chaos beasts, this technique was best at swallowing, accommodating, enduring, and resolving.
Legend had it that the chaos beasts even wanted to swallow the whole world in one bite. They naturally had far more tolerance for the dragon pressure of the Broken Dragon Cliff than ordinary people.
The future growth of this witch was destined to be a heaven-defying path that the two could never reach!
When the two "narrowly escaped death" climbed to the last hundred feet from the top of the cliff, they stopped again to rest.
Lan Xuan, who fell on the green rock, felt like a wisp of wandering soul that had walked several times in the reincarnation of life and death. Xuan Ji, who was leaning on the mountain wall and panting like an old dog, was obviously not much better.
Only the hateful witch, except for a slightly pale face, didn't even breathe disorderly.
Her waterfall-like hair and white clothes fluttered, and her fairy aura did not diminish.
It was really infuriating to compare oneself to others!
However, they finally climbed up. Lan Xuan could only forcibly comfort himself.
The happiest thing was that on this protruding rock less than a hundred feet from the top of the cliff, they could see the situation at the top of the cliff when they looked up.
The three of them could see that on the towering top of the Broken Dragon Cliff, a layer of golden halo covered a radius of ten feet.
From a distance, they could see that the golden light was all radiating from a strange withered branch in Duan Xiong's hand.
Just opposite Duan Xiong, Chu Chen sat on the ground with his eyes closed. His body trembled from time to time as if he was enduring great pain.
"This is … what's going on?"
At first sight of this scene, everyone's pupils unconsciously dilated. This scene was too strange. There was no expected killing or other bloody scene. The two people were sitting quietly on the ground.
But it seemed that they were carrying out some kind of mysterious ritual?
However, this ritual seemed to be very unfavorable to Chu Chen.
"Could it be, could it be that Little Friend Chu is really a descendant of an ancient god like the Ancient True Dragon? Is this old devil planning to refine his body and then possess it?"
Xuan Ke was the oldest. Naturally, he had seen all kinds of cruel secret skills in the cultivation world. At this time, seeing this scene, his face began to turn pale!
Lan Xuan and Shi Yuyan's expressions couldn't help but change.
"Young friend Chu was able to unleash the power of the Spirit River Tier when he was merely at the Four Streams Tier. He could even put up a fight against a Heavenly River Tier elite. Since ancient times, only True Dragons and Qilins, these ancient divine beasts, could have such heaven-defying potential and battle prowess. "
Xuan Ke analyzed in a deep voice. "Even if it's not a clone, for the Duan Xiong, Chu Li's body is probably the best body to possess."
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere in the air became heavy again.
The faces of the three men became more and more unsightly.
Lan Xuan and Shi Yuyan both felt that Xuan Ke's guess wasn't unreasonable.
No matter what his origin was, it was normal for the Old Devil Duan to have designs on his body.
"Little Friend Lan, do you have a way to confirm what the Old Devil is doing now? You've always known him better! "
Xuan Ke broke the silence and turned to ask Lan Xuan.
"I really don't know. In fact … no matter what the Duan Xiong is doing now, Senior Brother Chu is already in great danger. We have to take action as soon as possible. If it drags on … it's not good."
Lan Xuan's expression was solemn. "But … the Old Devil Duan hates being disturbed when he's cultivating. He's extremely vigilant. At this time, he doesn't recognize anyone and won't make a deal with anyone at all. At this moment, no matter who rashly provokes him, I'm afraid they'll suffer a thunderous blow in an instant! "
A thunderous blow from the Old Devil Duan!
When the three of them thought about it, they felt as if the world was about to collapse.
The three looked at each other and fell silent again.
With the terrifying strength of the Duan Xiong, he could destroy the Broken Dragon Cliff with a casual blow. The three of them had no way to survive against him.
"Then what should we do …"
Xuan Ke was burning with anxiety and tightly clenched his fists. But acting rashly now was no different from striking a stone with an egg.
But they owed Chu Chen so much. Even if they had to pay with their lives, they had to save him. Most importantly, they had to be able to save him. There was no meaning in throwing their lives away.
Lan Xuan also rubbed his head hard, at a loss of what to do.
"Apart from the danger, I keep feeling that something is wrong."
The white-clothed girl who had previously said that she would only follow the others up the mountain to take a look and wouldn't act rashly seemed to have thought of something.
A gust of mountain wind blew, and the fairy-like girl in white seemed to fly away with the wind.
"I don't know if you've noticed, but the aura on the Duan Xiong seems to have become extremely weak … this is very abnormal."
Shi Yuyan's words woke them up from their dreams.
"Hm? It seems to be a bit. Why didn't I notice it just now? "
Lan Xuan was startled, his mouth wide open.
He had spent the most time with the Duan Xiong and naturally knew how terrifying this evil supreme was.
In the past, the Duan Xiong had given off the feeling of a towering mountain, as if he were a lofty and unreachable god. But now, the Duan Xiong seemed to have become less powerful, as if something very important was missing …
"Whether it's because he refined Chu Chen or some other reason, the Duan Xiong is unprecedentedly weak at this moment. Now is the best time to rescue Chu Chen."
Shi Yuyan said word by word.
"If we're going to act, we'll have to act quickly. If we wait for the old devil to recover, I'm afraid no one will survive!"
The girl's expression grew colder and colder.
Lan Xuan and Xuan Ji looked at each other and nodded.
"Senior Sister Shi, what do you think we should do now?"
Lan Xuan looked sincerely at Shi Yuyan. No matter what, this inheritor of the Heaven Swallowing Expansion Technique's wisdom was trustworthy.
The girl didn't answer immediately. Instead, she frowned slightly and pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Will you listen to my arrangements?"
"Of course."
Lan Xuan clenched his teeth, his eyes resolute.
Xuan Ji also nodded heavily.
"Good. My arrangement is very simple. I'll think of a way to lure the old devil away. You two seize the opportunity to save Chu Chen."
Shi Yuyan said indifferently, but her words set off enormous waves in Lan Xuan and Xuan Ji's hearts!
No way?
This witch was definitely not a good person. She had an innate charm bone and cultivated a peerless art of seduction. She killed people without batting an eye. In order to increase her cultivation, she could unscrupulously devour the flesh and blood essence of a group of trial challengers. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was a world-class femme fatale.
A person like her would always abide by the principle of 'I'd rather betray the world than let the world betray me.'
In order to survive, she would do anything.
And no matter what, she would always prioritize her own life.
But at this moment, Shi Yuyan, this witch, had taken the initiative to take all the danger on herself!
Just to save Chu Chen's life?
