Chapter 609: Cat and mouse game, A boring guy
Although it had been less than half a year since the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons invaded, it had already caused great panic and disaster in their world. Many older generations even a.s.serted that the next time the extraterrestrial demons invaded, it would be the time when their world would be completely shattered.
Therefore, many of the powerhouses who had reached the level of Sword Immortals had gathered in various sects, trying to find a way to solve it. And the strategy to eliminate the source of the demons was also proposed by the current lord of the Shu Sect, Yi Jianxian, who was known as a Sword Immortal that could level the sky.
Her father was a famous and powerful existence in their world. When faced with such a crisis, he naturally chose to rush to that crack to try to prevent this disaster.
Unfortunately, several months pa.s.sed, and there was no news of her father. The rest of the people who went with him also disappeared without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.
Then, without telling her mother, she embarked on the road her father had left. If her father died there, she would bring his bones back. She couldn’t die here without finding traces of her father.
Many thoughts rushed to her, making the girl look a little dazed.
In fact, when she pa.s.sed through that crack in s.p.a.ce, she never thought that besides the terrifying spatial turbulence and various chaotic storms, there would be a majestic and thick world aura on the other side.
Under that heavy aura, even the battle clothes her father had left for her back then couldn’t hold up for a moment before it was broken. She didn’t go far and saw the familiar group of extraterrestrial demons arriving.
They emerged in a copper-colored warship, majestic and terrifying, like a majestic divine mountain, traveling through the turbulent flow of s.p.a.ce. All kinds of terrifying and chaotic auras around them couldn’t stop them.
At that time, the girl finally understood in despair that the power of the heavenly demons outside the territory was far beyond what they could contend and resist. Even the so-called invincible Sword Immortal couldn’t move an inch in this kind of place.
However, the heavenly demons outside the territory could control all kinds of terrifying weapons like walking on the ground, destroying the world. How could they resist such a group of terrifying enemies?
Facing the group of extraterrestrial demons, she was caught within a short distance. Her hands and feet were shackled with heavy shackles, unable to use the slightest amount of cultivation, and she became no different from ordinary people.
Then she was imprisoned in a cold and damp cage, where she spent a period of darkness and fear.
Fortunately, later, she discovered that a senior who came with her father to destroy the source was actually imprisoned beside her. The senior was seriously injured and almost couldn’t survive, but he still dragged his body and told her some useful news.
The good news was that her father was not caught by the group of extraterrestrial demons. At the critical moment, his cultivation base suddenly broke through, and he escaped into the chaotic and turbulent flow before disappearing.
But the bad news was that the group of extraterrestrial demons was just a certain force in the huge world they were in now. They did not include all the ethnic groups, and their strength and terror were far beyond what they could compete with.
It was just a joke to wipe out the source.
What desperate news this was! The real powerhouse had not yet appeared, and everything was still in the process of testing.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to repel the group of extraterrestrial demons.
Later, that senior burned her body with a secret method, creating chaos and helping her escape. But the escape was unsuccessful, and she was caught halfway.
The only fortunate thing was that her aboriginal ident.i.ty was not exposed, and she was held together with another group of local captives who tried to escape. From the mouths of those captives, she gradually learned some news about this world.
“This world is incomparably vast, and it is the center of the Heavens. There are countless strong people like trees, bordering all worlds, so there are often things that invade and capture other worlds…”
The girl’s eyes were extremely calm, she didn’t recall the past few days, and began to concentrate on running for her life. She knew very well that the group of so-called extraterrestrial demons was actually sent by the force that was imprisoning her now.
The Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, even in this vast and mysterious world, was a terrorist force at the level of a supergiant. Its inheritance time had exceeded tens of millions of years and spanned many eras.
In the world she lived in before, the power with the longest inheritance was only a few hundred thousand years old. In front of such a huge monster, it was as small as an ant, and there was no possibility of comparing the two.
Hurrah!!
Suddenly, the sound of wind piercing through the air came from behind, causing the girl’s expression to change, and she hurriedly hid in the bluestone corner beside her.
Although she had no cultivation level now, her five senses were still extremely amazing, and she could hear movements not far away. Someone was chasing her in this direction, and there were quite a few of them!
She quickly lowered her breath and didn’t move at all. Now she was no different from ordinary people, facing a group of cultivators, she had no chance of surviving at all. She could only hope that the crowd didn’t find her.
“Huh, just now, I clearly sensed that there was prey in this direction, why did it suddenly disappear? Could it be that my perception is wrong?”
A group of gorgeously dressed young men and women arrived riding ferocious beasts, all of them covered with light, looking very extraordinary.
The person who spoke was a man in brocade clothes with good facial features but a slightly gloomy face. He held a precious bow in his hand and seemed to be ready to bend the bow and set an arrow to shoot the prey.
At this moment, he seemed to see his prey escape and had a surprised expression on his face while looking around.
“Maybe our perception is wrong, why don’t we look in another direction?”
Besides the man in brocade clothes, another cold-looking man asked deliberately with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, the rest of them also laughed with cat-and-mouse smiles on their faces, as their voices echoed, “It seems that the prey escaped, what a pity, if we came here earlier, we might be able to catch it.”
“It’s really a pity, forget it, let’s look in another direction.”
The man in brocade clothes also had a helpless expression and seemed to sigh. Then everyone turned around and left on the beasts, moving toward another area to search.
The girl had been hiding behind the bluestone, tense all over, extremely nervous, holding her breath. She was drenched in a cold sweat, and did not dare to move at all.
Hearing the movement of everyone leaving at this moment, she couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, she was very cautious, and did not show her face directly, but continued to hide, planning to wait until it was finally safe before leaving.
After a few quarters of an hour, the girl finally felt that the crisis was gone, and the group of young men and women went in another direction without finding her. Her whole body almost collapsed from behind the blue stone, and she was covered in sweat.
But just when she was about to reveal her figure from behind the bluestone and continue running for her life, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the other side.
It was extremely abrupt, like a thunderclap exploding on the spot. Hearing this voice, the girl froze all over, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Although her body was covered by dirt, one could still see her uneasiness and disbelief.
However, she was by no means simple as she quickly recovered herself. Her eyes were extremely calm and composed as she turned her head to look closely at the group of young men and women riding on the beast.
The small hand under the sleeve tightly held the dagger that was less than an inch long, like a little cat about to pounce on the enemy.
“Hahaha, this woman really thinks we didn’t find her. It’s just ridiculous. I like to watch their expressions change from hope to despair. One moment they think they escaped from heaven, but the next moment they fall into h.e.l.l. Didn’t you expect that?”
“It’s really interesting.”
“The more desperate you are, the happier we are. This kind of struggle when watching the prey dying is simply one of the great pleasures in life.”
The man in brocade clothes and others appeared on the other side of the girl riding a beast, with playful smiles on their faces. They didn’t leave, they just went around in another direction, and then returned to their original place.
So they had been watching the many changes in the girl’s expression, from the initial long sigh of relief to astonishment and disbelief, this was their favorite thing to do before hunting their prey.
After all, with their strength, how could they fail to find the girl’s trace?
However, in the face of ruthless ridicule and jokes from the man in brocade clothes and others, the girl showed extraordinary calmness and ferocity. Her dark eyes were unmoved as if she was outside the world, and she didn’t have the fear, or despair that the man in brocade clothes and others wanted to see.
This expression made the smiles on their faces gradually disappear, and the brows of the brocade-clothed man frowned even more, very displeased.
“She’s such a boring person. She’s even calm when facing death?”
The man with a gloomy face cursed in a low voice and was also extremely upset.
Because the girl did not do what they wished, showing any panic or despair, let alone begging for mercy. This made them suddenly feel that things became boring.
“If you want to survive, maybe you can kneel down to us, and we might let you go.”
The man in brocade cloth said with a lofty expression and a compa.s.sionate att.i.tude as if doing charity.
If the girl knelt down to plead with them at this time, crying bitterly and wanting to survive, then they could show a little bit of their intention to let her go, and then kill her when she was full of hope.
They had a way of torturing people. However, the man in brocade clothes was still disappointed. The girl’s expression was still so indifferent, calm, and fierce as if she would fight them desperately at any time.
“This kind of boring person, let’s kill her, it’s boring.”
“I’ll give you three breaths to escape. After three breaths, whether you can escape my arrow depends on your fate.”
The man in brocade clothes opened his mouth lightly, and as the words fell, he began to bend his bow and set his arrows. The attendants at the side took out a few arrows stained with light blue and handed them to him. Obviously, these arrows were stained with poison.
Even if it was just a scratch on the skin, it could kill a cultivator in a short time. And on the way to escape, there would be fear and pain, and there was nothing to do but wait for death.
Hearing what the man in brocade clothes said, the girl’s expression changed a little, she turned around and fled to the swamp behind her.
The miasma was soaring there with all kinds of silt and poisonous insects, and this group of gorgeously dressed young men and women would definitely not chase there.
“One…”
Whoosh whoosh!
The corner of the brocade-clothed man’s mouth curled up mockingly. When he finished counting one, he didn’t continue, but directly drew his bow and shot in the direction where the girl was fleeing.
The arrow pierced through the air, with a terrifying whistling sound, like a divine light, directly splitting the large swamp above the swamp, revealing the dry riverbed below.
Many ancient trees on both sides exploded under this aura, not to mention people with no cultivation base, even a fierce beast with a strong body would be shot by an arrow at this time, destroying both body and spirit.
The rest of the people looked at this scene with mocking and compa.s.sionate expressions, quietly waiting for the moment when the girl was shot.
In their view, there would not be any surprise.
“Am I going to die here?”
The girl never thought that she would trust the man in brocade clothes as a captive, so she ran for her life immediately, but the speed was still far behind the arrows behind her.
There was only one thought left in her mind, she staggered and fell directly into the swamp.
