XIAO SHUXIANG'S
359 - Red Land of the Southern Continent
The vision taken from the World Gate's point of view was a red stretch of barren land. Rocks that exist and appear to have a pointed shape are evidence of past life in the Southern Continent.
Such a unique form was nothing but a trace of the swordsman's fight in this place - long before the ground turned red.
Actually not only the soil and the rocks, but this place also has bone fragments. When viewed from above.. This place will be much more terrible.
Trang!
THE TRAANG!
BLAAAR..!!
It was not the right time for Xiao Shuxiang and his companions to clearly gaze at the land on the continent. They were all too busy dealing with the dozens of reddish-thin smoke that seemed to be coming out from the Ninth World Gate.
Lan Guan Zhi swinging strong Shanghai. The sword was apparently effective at removing the reddish smoke it slashed, it felt like purification.
"Well, I think you can handle Lan Zhi..!" Xiao Shuxiang exclaimed, he was seen smiling towards his friend.
"Mrs,"
Such a short answer. But instead of being annoyed, Xiao Shuxiang instead widened his smile even more. He liked it so much when Lan Guan Zhi's eyes were filled with battle spirit.
Xiao Shuxiang then darted without releasing Yinng xiong from his hand. Unlike Shanghai which has a purifying effect, Xiao Shuxiang's heirloom has the effect of absorbing the reddish smoke.
Bing xiong is like a craze. He absorbed dozens of reddish-thin fumes that came, himself like an heirloom weapon of hunger.
"Jin xiong, you should never be greedy. Although that smoke feels good to you, but you can't overdo it,"
Xiao Shuxiang was currently still able to control Yinng xiong's movements, but he was unable to control the will of his sword.
The Mad Beggar Boy and Xiao Qing Yan were seen fending off the onslaught of smoke coming towards them without descending from the Moon Tiger's back.
GRAAAO..!
Lan Xiao's growl resulted in a huge whirlpool attack that instantly hit dozens of reddish smoke in front of him.
The attack only stopped when it hit the red ground that was near the Ninth World Gate.
"Little cat, can you fly higher?" The Mad Beggar Boy wanted Lan Xiao to take him flying higher, he wanted to estimate how far the reddish smoke would no longer be able to reach them.
"Now, don't be too high. Look at that thick cloud, it doesn't feel good.." Xiao Qing Yan felt confident that soon the sky would be covered in black clouds.
".. I have never been afraid of seeing clouds, but remember this in the Southern Continent.. It feels like even a cloud can be our enemy,"
The Mad Beggar Boy looked up, "Maybe you're right. Those thick clouds do look weird to me, but we can't go on like this. Can you wear your seal now?"
"It needs a special place for me to do the seal, it can't be arbitrary. After all, what should be prioritized now is to seal the gate. My gut tells me the gate needs to be sealed first,"
"I thought the same thing. The thing is, if Shuxiang sealed the gate, there would be monstrous creatures coming out from the ground,"
!!
Xiao Qing Yan and Lan Xiao gasped at the Mad Beggar Boy's words. The two of them instantly set their sights on, right where the World Gate was.
"Does that mean I should do the seal first?"
"I think it's the same as suicide. You have no idea what I saw. There are.. There was a terrifying face on the land of this continent. He grinned, but his eyes were closed. I'm so scared you know.." The Mad Beggar Boy firmly gripped his bamboo stick with both hands.
Although he was the oldest warrior, the Crazy Beggar Boy did not come from the Black Stream. He admits he likes the same sex, but he is a good young man. Such an evil sneer was clearly never hers.
".. Although I said we should help Lan'Er Gege and Shuxiang.. But honestly I was so scared. It's my fault for trying to see something I shouldn't have seen.."
New, new, graa..!
"Lan Xiao just said you're a 'bad guy', but I don't blame you at all. Actually, right now I'm scared too.." Xiao Qing Yan felt his heart racing so fast, his countenance also looked pale.
".. I don't know how horrible the face you saw is. But if I imagine.. It gives me goosebumps, moreover this is further exacerbated by the look of the monstrous black clouds above us."
Xiao Qing Yan's words made the Mad Beggar Boy look up again. It only took one breath until his eyes widened in shock.
!!
Ten pieces of lightning instantly struck without any sign first. Lan Xiao hurriedly avoided the swoop while continuing to carry Xiao Qing Yan and the Crazy Beggar Boy on his back.
!!
"What else is this now?" the look on Xiao Shuxiang's face looked bad. The problem with dozens of fumes has not been resolved and now a new problem arises. This obviously pisses him off.
"Why can't you just calm down for a second, huh?!"
!!
The clash of Xiao Shuxiang made the Mad Beggar Boy and Xiao Qing Yan blink. The two immediately protested, even including Lan Xiao.
"Do you think we did it?! We also know nothing..!"
"You don't just accuse me, Shuxiang..! Look carefully, my hands are so clean!"
New!!
Xiao Shuxiang remained in disbelief. According to him, how could the previously bright sky suddenly be covered in thick clouds accompanied by lightning strikes. Surely his friend had done something that made this phenomenon happen.
Unfortunately, Xiao Shuxiang's suspicions were less precise. The phenomenon in the sky is caused by the arrival of living things on this continent.
It was known that the Southern Continent was inhabited by sleeping Devils, so it was clear that the demons did not like the arrival of uninvited guests. Moreover, his guest was intending to do something in this place.
BLAHAR..!!
The Mad Beggar Boy had never liked lightning. But compared to looking down, he was better off attacking the cluster of black clouds above him.
"Little cat, you hang on for a second.."
Xiao Qing Yan frowned, "What do you want to do?" he could feel the young man behind him as if he was changing his body position.
The Crazy Beggar Boy did. He was now trying to stand up and estimate the distance and extent of the attack he was going to do.
"I can't float like Lan'Er Gege did, so you have to help me Little Cat.. Do you understand?"
Nyawm!
The Crazy Beggar Boy immediately shot up, he used his Deep Air Power to make his body lighter.
Ten pieces of lightning immediately attacked him but swiftly Crazy Beggar Boy returned the attack, he wore his black bamboo stick.
!!
Crazy Beggar Boy's attack was so powerful, the sound of thundering that it almost broke the eardrum was created from the impact of his attack on the ten lightning bolts.
The sunlight began to be able to penetrate through the thick clouds even though it only lasted a few moments before it closed again.
"It seems like this is still not enough,"
The Moon Tiger seemed to know what the Mad Beggar Boy was thinking. He looks to be the warrior's footing while helping get rid of the blackish red cloud.
CRAASH..!
On the other hand, Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi focused on attacking dozens of thin smoke that could sharpen, even to the point of tearing clothes including piercing their bodies if not fended off or avoided properly.
The sword motions of the two youths fused together, whereas Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi did not use any marks at all, they did not even speak to each other.
OH, BAAAM..!
Just once a swing of the sword belonged to Xiao Shuxiang, five pieces of attack were created and hit the red ground strong to produce a loud thumping sound.
BLAARS..!
Although Lan Guan Zhi's sword could not produce five attacks in one swing like his friend, the effects of Shanghai were not playful.
The sound like the roar of lightning is not only loud, but also able to make the ground become damaged. This indirectly makes the ground vibrate and cause more red smoke.
"Lan Zhi, why did you do that?" for the first time Xiao Shuxiang started to make a sound.
"I'm too excited,"
"Huh, the speech and look on your face are completely different. If you're so excited, don't put that flat-board face on. You're a real bitch,"
According to Xiao Shuxiang, the younger brother of Patriarch Lan was a strange young man. Just look, Lan Guan Zhi said that he was too excited, but his face and tone were so calm and even flat.
"If you think about it again.. I have never had normal friends. They're all weird people,"
Xiao Shuxiang returned to attack. This time it was much more difficult as the reddish-thin smoke not only came out from the Ninth World Gate, but also came from the red soil of the Southern Continent.
BLAARS..!
The focus of Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi was actually being split in two. The first is how they overcome the many red smoke puffs, and the other is caused by the relentless lightning strikes they must be aware of.
"Tsk, it's gonna take a little longer.." Xiao Shuxiang clearly felt that way. Because, repeatedly he swung Yinng-xiong-but still tens of reddish thin smoke always came.
To Lan Guan Zhi, his immortal sword was indeed able to purify-but it was not impossible for him to be overwhelmed. If they keep attacking like this, I don't know how long they can defend.
Xiao Shuxiang also understood that, yet for now there was nothing he could do. The only way is to keep attacking, defending and thinking about what he can do.
BLAARS..!
Not only Xiao Shuxiang, but also the Mad Beggar Boy, Xiao Qing Yan, and Lan Xiao. They focus on lightning strikes and try to bring back sunlight.
The three of them could not ignore the sky that continued to be covered in swirling blackish-red clouds, this was because Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi would be much more troubled than before if the lightning was not immediately annihilated.
OH, BAAAM..!
The longer it attacked, the speed of those thin fumes grew crazier. Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi were also forced to hasten their attacks.
"This cannot, using Yinng xiong to fight something that is not a living creature will only make you tired. I need another way,"
Xiao Shuxiang thought for quite a while, he had even been hit by an attack on part of his right arm. Thankfully the attack was not so fatal, but his right arm remained injured.
Due to his black clothes, the wound from the attack was not very visible. Xiao Shuxiang also seemed to care less about him. He preferred to strike back at a speed as crazy as the reddish-thin fumes.
!!
Seeing his friend made Lan Guan Zhi not stay silent. He darted and helped Xiao Shuxiang with a movement that was no less swift.
This kind of fight was actually more detrimental to Xiao Shuxiang and his companions. This was obviously because they were fighting with something that had no fixed form.
At that time Xiao Shuxiang began to be overwhelmed with Yinng xiong's behavior that was almost out of control.. His White Jade Flute suddenly appeared and floated slowly, right in front of him.
?!
Xiao Shuxiang frowned, he felt astonished because to him-he did not take out the White Jade Flute from inside his Semestal Bracelet. The question of why the heirloom exists is clearly visible on the look on his face.
The goik-white flute glowed faintly, as if signaling for Xiao Shuxiang to use it.
The flute effort was not in vain, Xiao Shuxiang actually wore it after storing Yinng xiong into his Semestal Bracelet. He then immediately played high notes and this had a big impact on the reddish smoke.
With the sound of his flute, Xiao Shuxiang was able to control the speed of the reddish fumes including being able to use the smoke to carry out an attack.
The tone played by him was so loud and like it was full of pressure. This was very different from the voice when Xiao Shuxiang played the song 'Funness', as if this audible tone was more to force someone to do something.
The Mad Beggar Boy was impressed when he heard the sound of Xiao Shuxiang's flute. It was just that it didn't last long until he refocused on attacking the incoming lightning strike.
Lan Guan Zhi himself still uses Shanghai, he helps his friend by purifying the thin fumes using his sword.
BLAARS..!
Lan Guan Zhi turned his head for a moment towards Lan Xiao, he then took out a book and directly threw it towards the Moon Tiger without saying anything.
!!
Xiao Qing Yan realized it, he reflexively caught the book and started to open its contents. He was shocked when he read it carefully. One of the pages of the book is actually a map of the Southern Continent. At that instant, Xiao Qing Yan's eyes widened.
"The Crazy Beggar..! Can you handle it alone? Me and Lan Xiao have to go somewhere, right now.."
!!
The Mad Beggar Boy was shocked, he could not float for so long, let alone fly. However he had yet to protest, Xiao Qing Yan and Lan Xiao had already left.
