"Whoosh …"
Hou Qing's figure was like lightning. In a split second, he dodged the Python Withered Toad's tongue. The tongue suddenly hit the tree behind him. The thick tree was actually pierced by the tongue in an instant. Hou Qing fiercely retracted the tongue back into his mouth, but the tree was also directly broken, sweeping up a gust of wind. Broken branches and withered leaves flew all over the sky.
At this time, Hou Qing had already flown up. Using the broken tree as a stepping stone, he actually jumped onto the back of the Demon Toad.
"Whoosh …"
The sword was like lightning. Hou Qing's expression was tense as he stabbed downwards.
However, there was only a "clang" sound as the sword fell. Sparks flew everywhere. This Azure Tipped Sword that had been tempered a thousand times and had accompanied him in wandering the Jianghu for a long time, even after entering the Daoist Sect, was unexpectedly broken into two pieces.
Before he had the time to show any expression of heartache, he saw the Withered Toad's huge body suddenly tremble. The densely packed fist-sized poisonous sores on its body unexpectedly burst out in patches of venom. At this moment, Hou Qing quickly jumped up, but the corner of his robe was still slightly stained. Immediately, he saw the corner of his robe sizzling with smoke. The fine silk material actually became riddled with holes in the blink of an eye.
The venom sprayed out in all directions, and wherever it landed, the plants withered and the rocks melted, and it actually transformed an area of 30 meters into a sea of venom. Even Fang Xing was almost affected, and he hastily leaped up and dodged behind a tree, only then was he able to avoid this calamity. A wave of fishy odor entered his nose, and it turned out that the tree he was leaning on earlier had already been melted by the venom of the Python Shriveled Toad, and over a foot of tree bark had already been melted away by the venom.
Hou Qing's body was in the air. Seeing that no matter where he landed, he would step on the venom, he hurriedly let out a clear whistle. His left foot stepped on his right foot, and his figure rose several feet in the air. Then, he took out a silver flying sword and stepped on it. His other hand swung, and he took out a vermillion flying sword. It turned into a fiery light and shot towards the Withered Toad's body. In an instant, it cut open a wound on the back of the Withered Toad.
"After all, the flying sword can still cause damage to it …"
Hou Qing was slightly relieved, but he did not dare to be careless. Such a small wound was not enough to harm the withered toad.
She hurriedly turned her head and just happened to see Fang Xing. This guy actually didn't run away and was sticking his head out to observe the battle. That gloating expression on his face was simply infuriating. Hou Qing was so angry that she almost bit her silver teeth into pieces. She had the intention to go over and behead him with a sword, but under the series of attacks of the Python Withered Toad, even preserving her life was difficult, so she couldn't divert even the slightest bit of attention.
"This won't do. I must escape. Otherwise, I'll definitely die under this Withered Toad …"
Hou Qing was shocked. He was a calm person and knew that this was not the time to be angry.
The Withered Python is a rank four monster with tyrannical strength. It's not something a third layer spirit formation cultivator can kill.
Now that he was walking on the flying sword, he could only support it for a moment. When his spiritual force was exhausted, even if he didn't fall into the poisonous sea, he would still be rolled into the stomach of the Withered Python.
Thinking of this, he immediately launched an even stronger attack. Spiritual force poured into the scarlet flying sword and pierced the Withered Python's body. Although it couldn't cause a fatal injury, it was enough to make the Withered Python go berserk and roar again and again. Hou Qing's goal was precisely this. During the attack, he looked around and had already chosen a path of survival for himself.
But at this moment, the Withered Python suddenly croaked, opened its mouth, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of poisonous gas.
This poisonous gas was light green in color. Like a flying sword, it suddenly pierced towards Hou Qing.
Hou Qing was taken aback. Controlling the flying sword, he instantly fled to the side, narrowly avoiding the poisonous arrow.
But after the Withered Python spat out the poisonous gas, it unexpectedly didn't stop for a long time until its body deflated.
Hou Qing was astonished when he saw this. However, he soon realized that something was amiss.
"Not good …"
Hou Qing cried out involuntarily and instantly abandoned the scarlet flying sword to escape.
At this moment, the Withered Python spat out a mouthful of gas and suddenly opened its mouth to suck again.
"Hu …"
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and a huge suction force was produced from the Demon Toad's seemingly bottomless mouth.
The broken wood and rock fragments within a radius of ten feet were instantly sucked in by this one breath. Inside its mouth, its nimble tongue continuously lashed out, and all the broken wood and rock fragments were sent flying away …
It was actually selective in its absorption, and its target was Hou Qing who was flying in the air.
"Whoosh …"
At this moment, Hou Qing had already flown three or four feet away, but he was also pulled back by this huge suction force.
In his shock, he casually flung out a thin crimson iron chain. It turned out to be a magic tool as well. He swung it at the thickest tree in front of him, and it immediately tightened, forcibly pulling his body that was already flying in the air …
"Crack …"
That iron chain was a good magic tool, but under this super strong suction force, it was pulled to the point of almost breaking.
"Big Brother Toad, we're on the same side …"
But it was also at this moment that a sudden scream was heard. It turned out that Fang Xing, who was waiting to reap the benefits, was caught off guard by this sudden suction force. His small body immediately flew up, but fortunately, his reaction was fast enough. While he was trying to get close to the Demon Toad, he stabbed the tree next to him with his dagger and barely managed to stabilize his body.
But his body was small, so naturally he was lighter. His cultivation was also a bit weaker than Hou Qing's, so at this moment, he could only barely maintain his power …
"Haha, I'll let you die in front of me, you little devil!"
Hou Qing laughed nastily, thinking that it would be difficult for him to escape death. Suddenly, he opened his five fingers and actually summoned his flying sword. A stream of light flew through the wind and fiercely slashed at Fang Xing, actually wanting to kill Fang Xing before he died.
At this moment, Fang Xing was stabbing the tree with his dagger, and it was difficult for him to stabilize his body, so how could he avoid this sword?
The sword was about to fall on his body and directly cut him in two.
"Hou Qing your grandpa!"
At this moment, Fang Xing suddenly clenched his teeth, and in the midst of cursing, he raised his hand and pulled out the dagger.
At this moment, he was suspended in midair, relying only on this dagger to stabilize his body. Once the dagger was pulled out, his entire body immediately flew towards the Dried Python Toad's mouth. That sword naturally couldn't cut him, but his small body suddenly fell into the Demon Toad's mouth.
"Pa …"
At the same time that he slid into the Demon Toad's mouth, Fang Xing's back was heavily whipped by the Demon Toad's tongue, and he almost fainted.
But, the more tense the situation, the faster his reaction was.
In the current situation, he knew that once he slid into the Demon Toad's stomach, he would immediately be trapped by the mucus and suffocate to death. Therefore, he clenched his teeth and endured, and without looking at what was in front of him, he fiercely stabbed down with his dagger.
Coincidentally, at this time, he had just flown to the Demon Toad's throat. This dagger stabbed down, but it didn't even reach the hilt, and immediately stopped his downward momentum. Also at this moment, the Demon Toad felt pain, and its entire body trembled. The gale that sucked the enemy into its stomach naturally stopped, and its two front claws weakly clawed at its own chest, but it couldn't reach it, and the pain almost made it go crazy.
Hou Qing saw that Fang Xing had been swallowed by the Demon Toad, and in his heart, he was very happy. What was even more surprising was that after the little demon was swallowed by the Demon Toad, that terrifying gale actually stopped. He couldn't help but secretly sigh in relief, and stepping on his flying sword, he wanted to escape from this poisonous sea.
But he didn't expect that when he was in midair, the Demon Toad didn't notice him, and now that he was flying at a fast speed, he immediately fell into the Demon Toad's line of sight. At this time, the Demon Toad was feeling a sharp pain in its throat, and couldn't help but go crazy. Suddenly seeing this enemy in front of its eyes, it actually crazily rushed towards him. It was no longer like before when it used its tongue to attack, but rather, it used its whole body to hit him.
Hou Qing was in a hurry to escape, but he didn't expect that the Demon Toad's whole body would hit him, and he didn't have time to dodge, and was immediately sent flying more than ten zhang. His body had not yet landed, and that Demon Toad had already pounced over again. Its four claws were waving randomly, and the venom on its body was splashing everywhere. It was as if it had gone crazy, and countless huge trees were knocked down by it. In the Demon Miasma Mountain forest, it was as if there was an earthquake.
"This Demon Toad went crazy?"
Hou Qing was hit by the Demon Toad, and although his chest was stuffy, and he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, he was alert to this point.
He was originally a bold person, and at this moment, he accurately grasped the fleeting opportunity.
Now that Zhao Zhi was dead, and Qian Tong hated him, he couldn't be left alive. Liu San was also dead, and so was that little devil.
It could be said that of the people who came out to do this mission, he was the only one left.
If he returned to the Dao Sect empty-handed, not only would he not be able to obtain the Stone Essence Powder that he needed to break through, he was afraid that the Dao Sect's evaluation of him would drop to the extreme. Even if he could enter the Inner Sect, he wouldn't be welcomed. Even if he took a step back, and made a great contribution to the Dao Sect in the future, this mission's failure would become an eternal stain on his path of cultivation.
But if he could bring back the Demon Toad, it would be a different story.
No matter how many people died, as long as he killed the Demon Toad, the mission would be completed, and he would be successful this time!
"Wealth comes from danger. If I give up this chance, then I, Hou Qing, will not be Hou Qing …"
Hou Qing clenched his teeth, took out a pill, and stuffed it into his mouth. If Fang Xing saw it, he would recognize this Demon Pill. It was the Demon Spirit Pill that Hou Qing tried to trick him with. The spiritual energy in this pill couldn't be compared to the main pill, but it could be consumed during battle, and it could replenish one's spiritual energy in a short period of time. Swallowing this pill meant that Hou Qing was going to risk his life.
