Chapter 026 Slaying the Demon
The four of us fell silent. I was very shocked by this palace made of ice, but I was also even more uneasy. The four of them followed in order. Xu Qian walked across the ice bridge first, and we followed one by one.
Although these ice bridges look relatively wide and seem to be very strong, when you walk on them, you realize that the bridge deck still has a certain inclination, and the colder the ice, the more brittle it is. The center of the ice bridge has to withstand a huge load.
Under pressure, even if a hair-thick crack forms on it, it can collapse at any time.
When I was halfway there, I couldn't help but glance down slightly. I saw a curious looking face immediately appeared on the smooth, mirror-like ice surface. It was my own face, but the parts below my face
They are all invisible, and the icicles and ice prisms above the head are also reflected in the ice bridge. Through the ice bridge, you can see the thousand-foot cliff below the ice bridge, as well as the ice crystals and ice bamboo shoots growing from the cliff.
Nothing left.
"It's so beautiful!" I exclaimed.
"Lin Kun, concentrate, don't get distracted!"
Below the ice bridge was wisps of ice mist, entwining half of the wall. For a moment, I suddenly couldn’t tell whether I was standing on the solid ice or suspended in mid-air. What was even more incredible was that I was standing here.
In mid-air, there is a face exactly like mine!
"Not good." My heart shook, and then I suddenly lost my sense of direction under my feet. I just felt that my body was sinking continuously, and the dome in the sky was spinning around me.
"Lin Kun...Lin Kun..." I seemed to hear someone calling my name, but it seemed like I couldn't hear anything. It was like the strength in my body was suddenly drained, and my hands and feet were no longer in control.
Just when I threw myself to the ground, Dadi quickly grabbed my body from behind, but it was extremely dangerous at this time. The two of us made large movements together, and the center of gravity shifted too much, making it difficult to
Adjustment.
An ice beam broke off in front of us. There was a meter in the middle that we had to jump over with human power. If this distance was on flat ground, we could jump over it in one step, but under the ice beam, there was an abyss, and at this time Dadi and I
The two of them were swaying, their steps were disordered, and skipping this distance was not something they could do simply by talking.
Sister Meng and Xu Qian carefully protected us from the front. Dadi and I moved forward together. At this time, we could only move our legs together. If anyone made a mistake, the two of them might fall off the ice bridge together.
Dadi and I had just landed on the ground. At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped down from above our heads. I looked up and saw the thing's wings spread out, and its body suddenly stopped in mid-air. The wind it brought was straight.
It blew sand and rocks away.
"Be careful!" I immediately threw myself on the ice in front of me, and the thing suddenly plunged down.
"What?!" I looked up again, and the thing had disappeared without a trace.
"Maybe it's a bird." Sister Meng judged.
"Where do the birds come from in this underground ice field?"
While he was talking, the black figure flashed out from nowhere, waved its wings, and flew down again with the strong wind. I stood up to greet him without any courtesy. The flying knife in my hand was already ready, just as it rushed towards me.
At that moment, I dodged, and then the flying knife shot out. It let out a scream of "ouch" and fell heavily to the ground.
Although I saw the thing fall to the ground, I didn't find any body on the ice field. I was also puzzled and looked around. It was quiet and I couldn't see anything unusual.
"Did you see a ghost?"
"Don't be careless." Xu Qian reminded
road.
"Can that thing still be invisible?"
"Look what that is." At this time, Dadi pointed to the ice palace. We turned around and saw a human figure standing on the steps of the palace. It looked like he had been standing there for a while.
"Isn't that - a snake-headed succubus?!" I recognized her immediately, "Good guy, she must have been up to something just now, she almost made me fall off the bridge!"
What came into view was a black-outlined mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and a pair of red triangular eyes with a fierce look. I will never forget that she stared at us, bared her teeth, and opened her mouth.
She let out a low roar, as if to warn us that this is her palace and no outsiders are allowed to set foot in her territory.
The banshee walked slowly, each step seemed calm and natural, but every step was very powerful. She made a "gurgling" sound in her throat and approached us step by step.
Then I saw a huge flying bird parked on the roof of the ice palace, full of murderous intent. It was the one that had just attacked us, making a frightening cry of terror.
"This is a corpse swan." Xu Qian said, "I didn't expect it to be the pet of this banshee."
After saying that, the corpse swan folded its wings, like an arrow from its string, drew an arc in the air, and pounced towards us. When it was only a few meters away from me, I quickly rolled on the spot, turned sideways, and hid.
After passing the carcass swan, it immediately stood up, and it had no choice but to take off and dive again.
This corpse swan was also loyal. After missing the target, it made another dive and fell from the sky with the strong wind. However, Xu Qian was already prepared and was waiting for the corpse swan to hit the muzzle of the gun. The corpse swan had a pair of sharp claws.
Just as he was about to grab her shoulder, Xu Qian's soft sword unexpectedly came out from under her arm and chopped directly into the corpse's claws.
The corpse swan failed again and had to desperately try to fly again, but the distance was no longer enough for it to fly again. At this moment, Xu Qian's sword had accurately chopped on its claws.
"Sister Qian, what a trick!" I saw with horror.
However, the corpse swan retreated quickly, but one of its left claws had already fallen off. It made a sharp cry in its mouth, flapped its wings and flew up.
"Sister Qian, what on earth is this corpse swan?" I looked at the pair of sharp claws on the ground and asked out of curiosity.
Xu Qian frowned and said: "This corpse swan is a rare thing. It is very noble. Although it is called a corpse swan, it does not mean that it grew up eating carrion flesh. On the contrary, this bird only eats rare and exotic animals.
, because this bird is so loyal that it will never leave its owner after his death, and is even taken into the grave to be buried with him, hence the name corpse swan."
"So that's it. It seems that this corpse swan was the great love of the snake-headed banshee." I sighed after hearing this. "But there are no rare and exotic animals in this place. How did it survive?"
"This is also strange to me, this corpse swan..."
It was too late, but soon, a gray figure passed across the sky,
I saw the snake-headed succubus leaping onto the ice outside the palace, mechanically turning her head, staring at us with a pair of cruel and sinister triangular eyes.
The banshee still cannot be underestimated. With the speed of attack just now, it flew across the air and struck with lightning. This skill and speed were probably beyond human reach. She roared threateningly at us, which was obviously her last warning.
Already.
"Good guy, this bitch actually dares to threaten me!" I glared at her, didn't answer, raised my feet, and slowly
Walked behind her.
The four of us happened to guard her from the four directions of east, west, north and south, telling her that there was no way to retreat. Then the banshee made another "woo woo" sound from her mouth. It seemed that she had reached the limit of tolerance, and then she
I saw a mane growing on her neck.
"Damn it, it was already ugly enough, but now it's even uglier!"
I saw that her mane had stood upside down, leaning back and bending her body, ready to pounce at any time and bite my throat out. Although I was confident and had enough information to kill this banshee, every step I took was still...
I feel my heartbeat speeding up dozens of times.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" the banshee howled again, making the sound as if all the hair on her body was shaking. I kept looking at it and kept a prepared posture.
"I will send you back to the west today." I was secretly thinking about how to deal with this banshee. In fact, the most feared thing about this banshee is her ability to capture souls. Once the soul is seduced by her, it will be in trouble.
"Lin Kun, don't be careless." Da Di reminded.
"Don't worry, you will gain wisdom after every hardship."
"Don't look her in the eyes."
"I know, don't worry!"
Time seemed to be frozen, every minute and every second was so slow. The banshee seemed unmoved, her hair stood up and her back arched, and she roared threateningly at me.
"You bitch, you're so shameless!" I yelled, but before I could even utter the word "return", the banshee pounced on me.
I instantly struggled with her, and an extremely ferocious face pressed before my eyes.
Fortunately, I'm not a vegetarian either. She rushed towards me, and I was well prepared. The flying knife clasped in my hand pierced the belly of the female corpse. But what surprised me was that even though I
I was sure I had pierced her, but I didn't exert any strength, as if I was piercing cotton.
"What?" I couldn't carry out a second attack with one hand, so I had to withdraw the flying knife and try to pull her away.
But the strength of this banshee was astonishing. It was really hard for me to shake it with my own strength. I had no choice but to roll on the ground three or four times. Suddenly, I felt a huge impact, and my whole body was shaken.
After being hit hard, he was thrown out and rolled to the ground.
"Fuck you!" The flying knife in his hand suddenly fell out of his hand, and he didn't know where it fell.
At this time, Xu Qian shouted: "Don't move, let me deal with her!"
I saw Xu Qian used her left hand to release the forbidden ring, and stabbed the banshee in the back of the head with a sword finger. I probably only saw a flash of light flashing across my eyes, and then heard a shrill scream.
The banshee fell heavily next to me.
The banshee hissed repeatedly, and then Xu Qian walked over slowly. Only a "click" was heard, and the banshee's neck bones broke, and the screams suddenly stopped.
I felt like I stood up and kicked the banshee a few times, but there was still no movement. I took a strong breath and cursed: "I told you to bite me!"
At this moment, the surroundings became quiet.
"So - is this thing over?"
I looked into Xu Qian's eyes. I don't know why. Everyone should have been happy when the banshee died, but instead I felt uneasy.
"Stop talking, listen!"
