"Boom, boom, boom … …"
Xu Lingyun and the rank seven monster, the Fire Scaled Snake, fought in the air. Flying swords crisscrossed and the white crane soared. In just a few moves, the rank seven monster was already at a disadvantage. However, it was not easy to take it down in a short period of time. Xu Lingyun was an eighth level spirit formation cultivator, which was a level higher than this strange snake. However, this strange snake liked to live in the lava and spit out fire qi, causing its demonic aura to have a fire poison nature. Its strength was much stronger than a rank seven monster. Even Xu Lingyun couldn't casually kill it.
However, if they were to continue fighting like this, it would be a situation where she would definitely win.
However, at this moment, the rumbling sound in the forest continued. Impressively, another Fire Scaled Snake rushed out. Its strange eyes looked at the sky, but it did not attack the Blue Cloud Sect's disciples. Instead, it rushed into the sky and surrounded Xu Lingyun.
Xu Lingyun was slightly taken aback. Her face turned cold as she shouted, "Demon, you dare? Watch my Qingyun Nine Swords Art! "
A light green longsword suddenly flew out from her sleeve. She held the sword in her hand, then turned her wrist and slashed. In an instant, an incomparably resplendent sword brilliance slashed towards the two strange snakes. For a moment, the sky was incomparably bright, as if there was lightning streaking across the sky. Almost in an instant, the sword light suppressed the two strange snakes' flames, and actually easily gained the upper hand.
"This woman also cultivated the Qingyun Nine Swords Art?"
Fang Xing stood on the ground, raised his head to look at Xu Lingyun's battle and sighed softly.
With a sword in her hand, Xu Lingyun's strength actually increased by more than three times. It could be seen how powerful the Qingyun Nine Swords Art was.
On the other hand, Xu Lingyun's main focus was on alchemy. The Clear Sky Nine Swords Art was only a supplementary cultivation. She didn't even spend 30% of her energy on the Sword Art. If it was Xiao Jianming who mainly cultivated the Clear Sky Nine Swords Art, how powerful would the Sword Art be?
"Hiss hiss … …"
Just as Fang Xing's thoughts were drifting, another monster snake appeared. It directly drilled out from the ground. Countless rocks and soil crumbled and flew into the air. With a twist of its body, like a bowstring, it directly swung towards Xu Lingyun who was in the sky.
"Whoosh …"
The white crane that Xu Lingyun was sitting on let out a clear cry. It flapped its wings and flipped over in an instant, narrowly dodging this attack. However, a feather on its left wing had already been scorched. It was an extremely dangerous situation. At the same time, Xu Lingyun was attacked by the poisonous flames behind her. She had no choice but to let out a clear shout and raise a barrier to block it. Then, the sword light flowed like a dragonfly and swept the third strange snake into the battle.
However, with the three strange snakes joining hands, even she immediately felt the pressure increase, and danger was everywhere.
"We have to split up and help Senior Sister Lingyun!"
Suddenly, Pi Junzi, the leader of the Literary Valley's disciples, killed a demonic beast in front of him with a single slash of his sword. He shouted coldly, "These strange snakes are rare seventh grade fire-attributed demonic beasts. Although they are only seventh grade, with the addition of fire-attributed demonic aura, their strength is not far off from an eighth grade demonic beast. If anything happens to Senior Sister Lingyun, I'm afraid no one here will be able to survive if these three strange snakes rush towards us …"
Fang Xing wasn't the only one observing the situation. The leaders of the other disciples were also controlling the overall situation.
Pi Junzi of the Literary Valley suddenly realized that the demonic beasts on the ground were gradually weakening. After leaving behind a ground full of beast corpses, many of them had already begun to quietly slip away, unlike their initial frenzy. Right now, the ones in the most danger weren't the people on the ground, but Xu Lingyun, who was fighting the three Fire-scaled Strange Snakes alone in the air. If she were to meet with misfortune or get injured, everyone else would also be in trouble.
The leader of the Mountain Valley's disciples, Feng Qingwei, said anxiously, "But each of these strange snakes' strength is at least at the peak of the seventh grade. Furthermore, their bodies are surrounded by poisonous flames. Even if the two of us join hands, it's very likely that we'll be killed in an instant …"
Pi Junzi said in a low voice, "At the very least, we need to find another person. With the three of us joining hands, we don't need to kill this strange snake. We just need to hold it back so that it can't join the other two to attack Senior Sister Lingyun. Once Senior Sister Lingyun is free, she can easily kill those two strange snakes, then come back to help us!" As he said that, he looked towards Fang Xing, and fell silent.
Apart from Xu Lingyun, he and Feng Qingwei were the strongest amongst the disciples. The other disciples didn't have the qualifications to join hands with the two of them to hold back the Fire-scaled Strange Snake. Among the crowd, the only one who had the qualifications was Fang Xing. Although his cultivation was a little low, his strength was famous. In the Makshin Valley, he was able to kick Mu Yong-young to the ground, which was proof of this.
In addition, Fang Xing was also the leader of the Makshin Valley's disciples. At this time, it was only right for him to take the risk and make a move.
Fang Xing coldly watched Xu Lingyun's fierce battle in the sky, and said indifferently, "Alright, I'll join hands with the two of you!"
Seeing that Fang Xing had agreed, Pi Junzi and Feng Qingwei both heaved sighs of relief. Although this kid was stubborn and mischievous, he didn't know how to shirk his responsibilities.
At this moment, a Vermilion Cloud Valley disciple suddenly said, "That Fire-scaled Strange Snake's body is wreaking havoc with poisonous mist and strange flames. Can the three of you withstand it with your cultivations?"
When Feng Qingwei and Pi Junzi heard this, their gazes turned cold as well.
The fire snake's poisonous flames were extremely strange, and even Xu Lingyun didn't dare to provoke it in the slightest. She blocked it with her barrier technique, so there was no need to even mention them. When they were fighting the strange snake, they could still rely on their movement techniques and magic tools to forcefully withstand it. However, when the poisonous flames engulfed them, they covered the sky and the earth, and were all-pervasive. If they were burned by a wisp of the poisonous flames or accidentally breathed in the poisonous smoke, it would be life-threatening.
"We need to extract a wisp of the poisonous smoke. I'll distinguish the poison within it, and then refine a Poison Repelling Pill for the three of you!"
Said a Vermilion Cloud Valley disciple. Before they entered the mountain, Xu Lingyun had extracted a wisp of the mountain's poisonous mist, and it was this disciple who had identified the poison within it before refining the Poison Repelling Pill. At this time, it was naturally time for him to take action again.
However, the three strange snakes and Xu Lingyun were fighting fiercely in the sky, and no one could get close, so how could they extract the poisonous smoke?
"I have an idea!"
Suddenly, someone spoke while panting. It was actually Wu Xiangtong. Before he could say anything, he took out a long black rod from his bosom. Threads were tied to it, and it was actually a fishing rod. Looking at the dense runes on its surface, it was also an magic tool. Then, Wu Xiangtong took out a porcelain bottle and hung it on the fishing hook. Then, he tossed it into the air, and the porcelain bottle flew several dozen meters into the air.
When he took it back again, the bottle was already filled with a wisp of poisonous smoke. The Vermilion Cloud Valley disciple immediately took it, but he didn't dare to smell it directly. Instead, he probed it with his spiritual energy. After a while, he raised his voice and shouted, "Take out the high-grade mother pill, add three portions of Gold Leaf Silver Edge Grass, two portions of Ink Root Purple Stamen Flower, half a gram of Jade Rhinoceros Beast blood … At least three revolutions of the spirit fire, and then wash it with Clear Flower Spring Water. No mistakes!"
"Yes!"
At this critical moment, no one dared to be negligent. The Vermilion Cloud Valley disciple immediately answered. Including the disciple who could identify the poison, there were a total of nine Vermilion Cloud Valley disciples. They split into three groups and sat down. One was a Furnace Master, and the other two were Life Destroyer. Their hands were so fast that it was almost impossible to see their shadows. In an instant, the fire was lit, the pill was sacrificed, and the ingredients were added. Spirit flames shot out of the pill furnace three times in a row. In less than nine breaths of time, the Poison Prevention Pill was completed.
"Many thanks!"
Pi Junzi and Feng Qingwei received the Poison Prevention Pill and immediately put it in their mouths, preparing to act.
It was also at this moment that Vermilion Cloud Valley's "Short Leg" also used a small jade plate to deliver the Poison Prevention Pill to Fang Xing. Even if the situation was urgent, Fang Xing still lowered his head to take a look. Suddenly, his expression changed, and poisonous flames flashed in his eyes. With a backhand slap, he sent the "Short Leg" flying. His mouth was full of blood, and two of his molars had fallen out. Then, Fang Xing swung his blade.
"B * tch, you dare to use a poison pill to harm me?"
When the "Short Leg" landed on the ground, she was completely stunned. The Poison Prevention Pill in her hand even rolled to the side. Her mind was in a daze, and only when she saw Fang Xing's blade coming at her did she suddenly burst into tears. "I … I didn't …"
"What's going on?"
Pi Junzi hurriedly used his flying sword to block Fang Xing's blade. At the same time, he asked in surprise.
Fang Xing didn't use any force in this strike, because when he did, he suddenly realized that the one who wanted to harm him wasn't this "Short Leg", but the Furnace Lord who refined the Poison Prevention Pill. His gaze fiercely swept over, and to his surprise, he saw that the Furnace Lord was Lin Qingxue. A trace of regret that was hard to detect flashed in her eyes, but her expression quickly returned to normal.
"You still want to use a poison pill to harm me at a time like this? B * tch, this was your idea, wasn't it?!"
Anger rose in Fang Xing's heart as he fiercely glared at Lin Qingxue.
Everyone else was shocked, and they all looked at Lin Qingxue.
Everyone knew that Lin Qingxue and Fang Xing had a grudge against each other. At this moment, they couldn't help but feel a trace of astonishment. Could it be that Lin Qingxue really was waiting for an opportunity to refine a poison pill to harm Fang Xing?
If that was the case, then this woman really didn't know the big picture.
Lin Qingxue's expression didn't change. She slowly picked up the Poison Prevention Pill from the ground, and lightly said, "What a clumsy excuse … Are you saying that this is a poison pill? Then I'll eat it for you to see if I'll die from the poison! " As she spoke, she actually put the pill into her mouth. Before anyone could stop her, she swallowed it, and then looked calmly at Fang Xing.
"Are you trying to destroy the evidence?"
Fang Xing's face was expressionless. His eyes were like swords as he stared at Lin Qingxue.
This trick of hers might be able to fool others, but it wouldn't work on him. Since this woman dared to give him a poison pill, she must have been prepared for failure. She would first take the antidote, and when the situation didn't look right, she would test the pill with her own body.
This trick was used too much in the jianghu.
