Volume 3: A drop in the ocean Chapter 31: The heroic spirit vanishes into thin air
The dark green fire turned into a red flame, spreading towards the wooden staff recklessly. The three heads of the wooden sculpture on the wizard's staff suddenly moved! They opened their mouths and swallowed the red flames whole!
The red flames were not to be outdone. They seemed endless and continuously poured out from the fingertips of Gong Lili's hands. Gradually, a column of blazing flames rushed out like a fire dragon, and suddenly it seemed that it would swallow up the wizard's staff entirely. The old man opened his eyes, but did not dare to resist. He quickly retracted the wizard's staff and leaped several steps away, horrified!
Blazing flames burn the sky! This is the Shamo clan's top-level fire magic!
How could this little girl have such powerful witchcraft? He remembered that he had seen it once by chance when he was fighting with Wu Su, the great elder of the Shamo tribe, more than 20 years ago, but he didn't expect to see it again today.
Looking at the old man's eyes again, he was overjoyed! He originally thought that this woman was just an ordinary Shamo wizard, and thought that using her blood to sacrifice his "Ghost Staff" would be good, so he was reluctant to feed her to the snake directly, saving her life. These days, relying only on the blood of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Ruoye tribe for blood refining, the "Ghost Staff" has obviously lost a lot of power. It's not easy to get a high-quality blood refining material, so he is not willing to let it go easily.
Unexpectedly, he got such a great bargain by mistake! This girl actually used the Shamo tribe's top fire magic "Fire Burning the Sky". If he was not mistaken, she should be the reincarnation of the legendary Shamo tribe's chief wizard who had been sealed for five hundred years!
Originally thinking that this trip to Yonghui would be a boring errand, he did not expect to have such an unexpected gain. The old man's eyes suddenly lit up with murderous intent!
How could Gong Lili be a well-behaved person? Although she used some tricks she didn't even know in her confusion, the pure spiritual power that continuously flowed out of her body made her feel indescribable joy all over. She understood that this was the power of Yao Ji in her body gradually awakening. This discovery made her feel more calm and confident. She thought that if she could control this power freely, there would be nothing to be afraid of in this virtual world!
At this moment, she almost forgot her original intention of escaping, and actually planned to fight the old man head-on! She knew that the man in front of her was a strong man, and she needed a strong man to be her whetstone!
At this moment, her eyes were red as blood, and the red flames in her hands spread out like swaying flames, condensed in the air, and gradually transformed into the shape of a flying bird. The flame also danced like a flying bird, and swooped down towards the old man at an incredibly fast speed. What was particularly amazing was that the flaming bird turned into two in the void after flying one foot, and two turned into four after one foot... and when it reached the old man, it had turned into several birds that covered the sky!
The old man from the Kongming tribe was no ordinary man either. He just casually drew a virtual circle in the air with the wizard staff in his hand. This move did not seem to be fancy at all, and it was not even fast. However, the earth-shattering momentum that came from the air and the accompanying purple lightning and thunder knocked down all the attacking flaming birds in front of him in an instant!
All around him, flames were falling to the ground like scattered flowers. The terrifying momentum brought by the blazing flames burning the sky came to an abrupt halt and became silent, disappearing into the air without a trace!
Then, a cloud of black mist gushed out from the mouth of the 'uI' on the wizard's staff. Suddenly, the black mist was everywhere, and a miserable wind was blowing. It seemed that one could hear the wailing of ghosts, and a bloody and evil aura spread in the stone chamber. Ping Lili knew that the black mist must be poisonous. He subconsciously held his breath and stepped back a few steps, but suddenly he felt his limbs gradually going numb, and the flames on his fingertips seemed to be extinguished as if the gate was turned off!
At this time, the pure spiritual energy in the body seemed to be blocked by something, as if it had returned to the original state of knowing nothing! Oops!
I don't know what kind of poison the wizard's staff sprayed out, it's so powerful! Ying Lili secretly cried out that it was not good, and was thinking about what to do next, but suddenly she felt her waist tightened, as if she was entangled by something, and then she felt that she was rolled up by a strong force and lifted in the air. Ying Lili looked down, but her jaw almost fell to the ground. It was clearly the tail of a giant snake that was wrapped around her. The one-horned jade snake that disappeared out of thin air before suddenly appeared from behind her and attacked her suddenly, holding Ying Lili firmly! At this time, the long snake tongue was less than an inch away from her face!
"Hahaha, you ignorant girl, you still want to fight with me? Just be my blood-refining medicine inducer!" The old man laughed loudly and jumped up. His right hand went straight for the throat of Ping Lili. Only then did Ping Lili see clearly that his nails were actually ink-black and looked extremely sharp, like five deadly knives!
Seeing the five sharp knives about to stab at her, Ying Lili's heart skipped a beat, thinking, this is really the end! She subconsciously closed her eyes and screamed loudly, but unexpectedly heard a plop sound, and then, after a long time, the sharp knives never fell. The giant snake that was tightly wrapped around her seemed to be frozen, and it didn't move at all.
Pinglili opened his eyes tremblingly, and then he found that the old man from the Kongming tribe had collapsed to the ground, lying face down on the ground, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. Behind him, another old man appeared. This man was wearing a linen black robe, with white hair and beard. His white hair moved without wind, and the most bizarre thing was that he was actually floating in the air! His feet were at least an inch off the ground!
Who is this? Friend or foe?
Ping Lili did not dare to let his guard down. Although his whole body's spiritual power was sealed and he could not do anything, at least he stared at the person in front of him without showing any weakness.
The white-haired old man had drooping eyelids and wrinkles on his face. He looked dull yet majestic. He glanced at Gong Lili twice but said nothing. He just stretched out a hand as heavy as a dead tree, and in the blink of an eye, several silver rays flew out. The giant snake, which had been subdued by him with some unknown magic and could not move at all, did not even struggle at this time. With a snap, as the snake's tail loosened weakly, Gong Lili fell to the ground from the air again.
Seeing that the huge snake was about to fall on his head, Gong Lili almost rolled and crawled for several meters before he avoided being hit by the giant snake and turned into meat paste.
Looking at the giant snake again at this time, it was actually coiled up into a ball, no longer breathing!
Gong Lili took a breath again. He originally thought that the old man from the Kongming tribe was already a peerless master, and the legendary thousand-year-old snake spirit was not an easy thing to deal with either. He did not expect that the white-haired old man could easily deal with the man and the snake in the blink of an eye. If he wanted to deal with him, it would be as easy as pinching a chicken.
She got up timidly and looked at the other person vigilantly. There was only one thought in her mind: No matter what, just run!
But before she could move, the other party spoke first, and what he said almost made Ping Lili's nose crooked: "Stupid girl, are you scared now and want to run away? Weren't you so arrogant and wanted to show off just now?"
Being rebuked and mocked by the other party, although Ping Lili was a little angry, but from the other party's tone, he didn't sound like a wicked person. Ping Lili turned his eyes and decided to play dumb, innocent and cute. In any case, he would test the other party's attitude first and then say: "Senior, thank you for saving my life. What should I call you, senior?"
"Follow me!" The other party was an old man who was about to become a wise man. How could he fall for this? He looked at Jinglili coldly, threw down such a meaningless remark, and turned to leave. Before he turned around, he saw his linen sleeves move slightly, and several silver rays flew out. Before Jinglili could make any reaction, she felt a shock all over her body. Then she found that several unknown acupuncture points on her body had been inserted with several shiny silver needles. With a cool feeling filling her whole body, Jinglili suddenly found that the spiritual power that had been sealed just now suddenly flowed in her body again, and her fingertips also felt a faint burning sensation. She moved her mind, and the red flames suddenly clustered from her fingertips.
But Ping Lili was a little confused at this time. Who was this white-haired old man? Why did he rescue her and help her detoxify?
"Wait a minute! If you want me to go with you, you have to tell me who you are, right?" Since it was useless to pretend to be stupid or cute, Ping Lili was too lazy to pretend anymore and didn't even bother to say polite words. He went straight to the point.
The white-haired old man who was about to walk in front paused slightly. Well, he didn’t walk, he floated. At this moment, he was still floating in the air without touching the ground. He didn’t look back, but said something that made Gong Lili want to jump up and bang her feet against the wall: "You don’t need to know who I am. I know who you are, that’s enough."
"Can I say no?" The rebellious spirit in her bones suddenly emerged at an inappropriate time. Although Ping Lili knew that she was almost a grasshopper in the other party's hands at this moment, and her life or death depended on the other party's thought , she had no place to vent the depressed mood in her heart, so she threw out this sentence in a very childish way, although she did not expect the other party to have any good answer.
Unexpectedly, the other party replied her with a sentence that shocked her greatly: "Your knife is in the belly of the giant snake. Use your blazing flame to burn it and you can take it out."
Hearing this, Ping Lili was even more shocked. The other party actually knew this! Suddenly, Ping Lili felt as if she had become a transparent person in front of the other party. She had no secrets at all. Who was this white-haired old man? Why did he know so much about her?
Is he an enemy or a friend? Ping Lili sincerely hopes it is the latter, and vaguely feels that it should be the latter, otherwise the other party would not be so nosy.
But there was not much time to think, his red eyes closed slightly, and the red flames on his fingertips became even more intense, instantly turning the giant snake into ashes. As expected, the black iron short blade lay quietly in the pile of black bones, still emitting a cold light!
