Chapter 12 The Mystery of the Great War(1/3)
"This ghost snake is different."
Chuanyunjian was trembling all over, with cold sweat on his forehead. He took a few pills, wrapped the wound, and carefully considered his words before replying: "That must be a ghost snake that has turned into a demon, and its level is not low."
"Ah? Ghost snakes can also turn into monsters? Are you serious?"
"I can't believe it either, but it's true. There's nothing left to doubt."
Chuan Yunjian took a breath, leaned his body on the stone next to him, and said: "I was dormant over there, fully alert to the front, and cultivated my whole body to move around, protect my whole body, and be safe..."
As an archer, how could he not know the dangers in the mountains and forests?
At this critical moment of war, even a small insect bite and a slight distraction can cause big problems.
Even though my cultivation is now so profound that I am almost invulnerable to all evil spirits, I have formed a habit and my instinct of vigilance is always there.
The masked man in black was even more confused.
If that's the case, why are they still being bitten?
Chuanyunjian sighed deeply.
"I just breathed a sigh of relief when I saw you guys returned safely, so I took the arrow back from my bow."
The muscles on Chuanyunjian's face twitched and he said: "About that time, I suddenly felt numbness in my ankle."
The muscles in the corners of the black-clothed and masked man's eyes subconsciously twitched.
Just the time it takes to retract the arrow...how long can it take?
Is it a snap of a finger, a blink of an eye, or a moment?
"Also, even though I was somewhat relaxed at that time, the protective aura had not yet been withdrawn, and I was still in a state of complete preparedness. This is not the case. I am afraid that the poisonous damage will be far more than that."
Chuan Yunjian breathed in, with fear in his eyes: "I am lucky this time, I saved my life."
"..."
The masked man in black was speechless.
One of his legs was completely broken, but he still said he was lucky. This kind of luck... really no one else!
"It's really good luck."
Chuanyunjian showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "I felt something was wrong at that time, because the numbness had already spread to my knees the moment I felt it."
"You know that when we reach the current level, we have already habitually placed spiritual energy locks on important joints throughout the body to prevent unnecessary irreversible damage. The higher the cultivation level, the more afraid of death, and it is more suitable for cultivators like us.
"
"Yes."
"But the spiritual energy lock I placed on the knee joint was unable to block it for even a moment. At most, it was delayed for less than a blink of an eye, and then it was broken through, completely broken."
"Then...then I cut off my thigh with one strike of my sword."
The lingering fear on Chuan Yunjian's face was still there: "I didn't even look at that moment, I cut it purely based on instinct. After cutting it off, I didn't move my body immediately to stop the bleeding, but moved my body here.
Then...then I watched helplessly as the leg completely corroded and melted before you arrived...and even rotted out a big hole on the ground."
"Look...it's still rotting, how poisonous it must be! The most poisonous thing in the world, this is truly the most poisonous thing in the world! It's extremely poisonous even the cultivators in the clouds can't compete with!"
The two of them looked at the big hole next to them that was still smoking. The muscles on their faces were subconsciously twitching, and they were scared.
"Shouldn't I be lucky? If I had reacted a little later...if the poisonous gas had reached my thigh, I would have turned into that hole now."
Cloud Chuanjian's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"Where's the snake?"
"I didn't see it..."
"Didn't see it?!" the masked man in black exclaimed.
With his cultivation of Cloud Piercer, he was bitten by a snake and was so severely injured that he didn't even see the snake?
He thought the snake had been killed by the cloud-piercing arrow.
"I didn't see it! From beginning to end, I didn't even see a shadow."
Cloud Piercing Arrow smiled miserably: "That's why I said... this ghost snake is a ghost snake that is beyond our understanding, and it is beyond a lot! The so-called demonization is just based on my understanding.
I know, this is just the most conservative assessment of it!"
"..."
The masked man in black was completely speechless.
"There is such a ghost snake in the world!"
Ignore the aura defense, bite it directly, and then leave immediately.
"That's not right, doesn't the ghost snake have barbed teeth...how can it be so sharp?"
"This... I really don't know. Maybe I met a strange species among the ghost snakes, so I can be so beyond recognition, so poisonous, and so deadly..."
Chuan Yunjian sighed: "In this situation, I will definitely have to leave immediately and go back immediately. It is serious to ask the boss for some Shengsheng Creation Water."
"Then have you prepared everything else?"
"Enough, enough."
Chuanyunjian sighed, took out an arrow from the arrow pot, and handed it to the masked man in black: "You keep this arrow."
"good!"
Black-clothed took the arrow and put it into his own space ring with great care.
He knows what this arrow does.
deterrence!
As long as the arrow is thrown out at any time and made like a shot, it can create the illusion that the cloud-penetrating arrow is still there, which is enough to intimidate everyone on the other side.
Anyway, the Cloud Piercer Arrow is threatened by the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace and cannot kill anyone.
Then let's all work together to intimidate others and treat them in their own way, which would be more in line with the current situation.
I believe that once this arrow is released, those in Tianjianyun Palace will definitely not dare to be too presumptuous, at least they will have to be cautious.
Suddenly, a figure fell from the sky.
The eyes of Chuanyunjian and the other two people all showed expressions of respect.
"Hello, Seventh Brother."
This figure that suddenly appears seems to be illusory. It is clearly reflected in the sunlight and still has a somewhat transparent feeling. It makes people feel very strange and impressive.
"Things really aren't that simple."
After that, he threw a ring directly to Cloud Piercer Arrow, and then said: "There is life-creating water in it. You can find a place to heal yourself. Well, find someone to protect you, and then return to the team after you are healed."
"Thank you, seventh brother."
Chuan Yunjian was overjoyed. For his current injury, the earlier he started to heal, the better the effect would be. If everything goes well, his Yuan Gong may not be damaged too much.
The previous leader of the masked man in black said: "Brother Qi, what should we do next?"
"what to do?"
The 'Seventh Brother' glanced at him and said, "Didn't you promise that I wouldn't move for three days? Then I won't move. I'll leave everything to be discussed in three days."
"I see."
"Wait a minute and give this bottle of created water to those who were poisoned to clean it up. The poison they were poisoned is certainly very poisonous. With their own skills and cultivation, and the combined use of the created water, it should be able to drive away the poison."
"Thank you, seventh brother."
"Go ahead... um wait."
"Seventh Brother, do you have any other instructions?"
"Is that Dong Pingchuan...confirmed to be the son of Dong Canglan of Yun Palace?"
"It is said to be."
"Oh? If Dong Canglan's son is really so great, why would he train his daughter to be his heir? Or Dong Pingchuan has greater potential. With Dong Canglan's old ways, how could he buy a coffin for a pearl and leave a valuable treasure by mistake?"
"This...there's probably another reason behind this, right?"
"That doesn't make sense! There's absolutely no sense in that!"
‘Brother Seven’ frowned and said, “By the way, have you done any in-depth research on Dong Pingchuan’s name?”
"After checking, there is indeed this person in Tianjianyun Palace, and his appearance is consistent with the known information."
"That's even more wrong."
"Seventh Brother" frowned and thought: "I know that one of the ancestors of Tianjianyun Palace is named Dong Pingjiang, and Dong Pingjiang's brother, named Dong Pingtian, is the previous palace master. You should know this.
"
"Yes...yes, something is indeed wrong."
"That's right, this Dong Pingchuan... is either a descendant of the same surname who happens to be named that way, but he is definitely not a direct descendant, or he is a fake identity simply to hide his identity."
To be continued...
