Chapter 257 Lip An
Chapter 257 Lip An
Secret realm, giant tree.
Southeast orientation.
"go!"
First there was a loud shout, and then there was a dull sound like the sword blade hitting a tough stone wall.
After blocking this powerful and heavy blow for his junior brother, Chang Hao stood still, took a deep breath, and stared at the monster in front of him.
That really is a 'monster'.
It was nearly five feet tall, and its stone-skinned body was covered with holes of various sizes. In each hole, there was an unnamed plant growing in it.
Chang Hao didn't see any facial features similar to humans or animals on its front, only a ferocious and rugged stone wall, and he didn't know how it could identify its direction.
To be honest, those holes alone were already scary. Coupled with the despotic body and facelessness, he had to endure great psychological discomfort every time he looked at it.
And this was only the third trial they encountered.
It is unimaginable that the thirty-six levels of trials in the legend of the secret realm are increasing layer by layer. Is this really possible for people to pass?
Even though the trial would be adjusted accordingly based on the tester's cultivation, Chang Hao still felt that the intensity was a bit too outrageous.
His thoughts were interrupted by the howling wind.
Chang Hao's eyes narrowed, he saw the right moment, used his sword skills, and instilled spiritual power into the sword's edge. After jumping sideways to dodge, he stabbed the 'monster''s arm with a backhand sword and stabbed it hard.
However, it turned out that stabbing him with a sword was actually just his own beautiful fantasy.
There was a huge shock in his hand, which almost made him unable to hold the sword and let go.
Taking advantage of the gap, Chang Hao lowered his face, took several steps back, spread his legs and ran away with the other two juniors in the team.
"Senior Brother Chang, if not, let's stop here..."
Beside him, some people were already starting to back down.
Chang Hao glanced at him and saw that the Taoist robes on his body had been torn to pieces by the previous battle, and his whole body was gray and embarrassed.
Looking at the other person and himself, they are actually not much better.
They had been struggling with this monster for three full days, but in the end they couldn't even break through the opponent's defense. It was really hard to make people want to continue fighting.
Chang Hao gritted his teeth, looked back unwillingly, and then nodded.
But the next moment, there was an extremely frightening voice.
"Senior brother... the talisman seems to have failed?!"
He stammered and stretched out his hand tremblingly.
In the palm of his hand, he saw the teleportation talisman that shattered into ashes.
Chang Hao was startled when he saw this, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
Once the secret realm trial is started, it will be a life-or-death situation unless they voluntarily give up the opportunity to challenge.
But now, the only escape route seems to have been blocked.
Behind him, there was a terrifying sound caused by the giant thing falling to the ground.
The earth is shaking.
The monster has already caught up.
……
……
The core area of the secret realm, the wooden house.
When Lin Jingqiu finally woke up from the 'dreaming' state and gradually returned to consciousness, the first thing she saw was the familiar figure of the young man.
He was lying on the bamboo chair, his eyes lowered, as usual, but it surprisingly made her feel at ease.
It seemed that no matter what happened, as long as he was by your side, you would never have to worry about any bad consequences.
The girl tried to move, but her body froze and she fell down before she could react.
Not moving her body for too long resulted in a funny scene where she fell flat on the ground.
And the position she was leaning towards was the boy who was dozing on the bamboo chair.
The girl's head, along with her scattered hair, were buried in his abdomen.
Chen An opened his eyes and met those clear and stupid eyes.
He sighed and thought, why didn't he think she was so stupid when they first met?
Then, the girl's lips moved and she uttered unclear words.
"Lip An..."
Suddenly, the door of the wooden house was pushed open, and Zheng Qing walked in.
When she saw this scene, she was stunned for a second. She didn't know what she thought of, but she quietly exited and closed the door very considerately.
……
There was silence.
"stand up."
Hearing the young man's faint words, Lin Jingqiu shouted, quickly raised her body and stood up.
At this moment, she may have come to her senses, her face was flushed, her earlobes were slender, and she stood there with her head lowered and motionless like a child who had done something wrong.
Chen An glanced at her, got up from the bamboo chair, and walked out the door.
<divclass="contentadv">"Now that you're awake, let's go."
He didn't pursue the previous matter and spoke casually.
Behind him, the girl snorted and whispered something that was really stingy, but she didn't mean to do it, and then jumped up and down to keep up with him.
Chen An ignored her whispered complaints and opened the wooden door again.
Outside, the woman was looking up at the sky. She heard the movement and turned around, surprise flashing across her face.
"So fast?!"
Chen An passed by her expressionlessly and flicked her forehead with his finger.
The knuckles collided with the skin, making a 'bang' sound.
Zheng Qing felt pain and covered his head.
She looked over resentfully, not angry, but she didn't know what she had done wrong to deserve such a gift.
But she was obviously older, but it turned out that it was the young boy who seemed to be doing this kind of teaching thing very smoothly.
It's like he is the elder.
"Pfft."
The girl who followed Chen An couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.
She took a step forward, poked Chen An's shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "Chen An, why do you want to play senior sister? This is not good..."
Chen An paused when he heard this.
He raised his hand and flicked it towards the girl.
"Oh, it hurts!"
Lin Jingqiu's performance was much worse than Zheng Qing's. She exclaimed in pain, her eyes filled with mist, and her expression became as resentful as her senior sister's.
Chen An looked at her aggrieved look and suddenly smiled.
"Well, this is called not worrying about scarcity but worrying about inequality."
He said.
The girl looked over, glared at him fiercely, and said, "Bah! Who would want such inequality!"
Chen An took a step forward and did not argue with her.
Zheng Qing took a step forward, took the girl's hand, and chased her with him.
She hesitated and asked: "Chen An, um...how long did we sleep in that room?"
She asked this, of course, not because she was worried that Chen An would do anything bad to them at this time, but because she thought of the instructions from the Heavenly Master before entering the secret realm.
"Six days."
From ahead, the boy's answer came.
Hearing the reply, Zheng Qing and Lin Jingqiu were both startled.
"Six days?!"
The sun and moon in the secret realm are reversed every seven days.
In other words, today is the last day.
They looked at each other and knew they wanted to be together.
"Wait a minute, Chen An, what about those people who came in with us?"
The girl spoke with some worry.
She was not worried that Chen An would not be able to find a way to get out. After all, looking at his carefree look, she knew that he must have a way to deal with it.
What about other people who were separated from them in the first place?
Do you really want to die without saving him?
Ahead, the young man stopped.
He looked over and said, "You want to save them?"
Hearing this, Lin Jingqiu's little head clicked rapidly.
"Then go back and take off the mirror on the wall."
"Ah I?"
The girl pointed at herself, her eyes widened a bit, and she asked in a somewhat unconfident manner.
Speaking of which, I think she was very confident when she first met Chen An...
He even dared to speak out loudly, boasting about Haikou, including words about its foundation-building resources.
But all this has long gone away as we get along with Chen An.
"Yeah, just you."
Chen Jing looked at it quietly and replied.
