My messenger is a little fox

Night gradually enveloped the forbidden area, and Li Yu felt that the surrounding vegetation was moving. It was not the kind of movement caused by the wind blowing leaves, but the irregular movement similar to that of low-intelligent creatures. There seemed to be something hidden among the dark vegetation. Only one eye was watching the intruder, a greedy gaze.

Li Yu clenched the Xuan Ming Sword in his hand and took Ah Li into the spirit space. He would then use his sword skills to deal with any dangers that arise.

As he gradually penetrated into the forbidden area, Li Yu's perception ability was almost completely blocked, and he could only rely on his five senses to detect the surrounding situation.

The initial attack came from underground. Li Yu noticed that the ground was shaking and jumped back, avoiding the attack of several root vines.

Two of the root vines that came out from under the path were particularly strong, more than ten meters long. When the prey avoided them, they immediately stood up like sticks and hit Li Yu's head with the force of the wind.

Li Yu turned sideways and drew his sword. The vines hit the path heavily, and one of them was cut off by Li Yu.

It was unexpectedly easy. There is very little spiritual power attached to the root vine, which is completely unworthy of its powerful appearance. Li Yu's use of drawing the sword to deal with it is completely overkill. So when another vine jumped up and attacked Li Yu again, he cut it off with just a backhand sword.

The surrounding demonized vegetation didn't seem to expect that the intruder was so powerful. They froze for a moment, and then a violent storm of wood thorns, branches, leaves, and vines came at them as if they were angry.

Li Yu used Yushou, and the Xuanming Sword intertwined a spiritual shield in front of him, and everything that hit him was cut off and shot down. In the blink of an eye, a thick layer of fallen wood and garbage accumulated around him.

Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief. As he expected, these wooden thorn attacks were not very powerful, and they could not even reach the spell strength of first- and second-level monsters.

Is this the only level of protection in the forbidden area?

Just as this thought flashed through Li Yu's mind, the underground shaking started again, and this time it was so wide that it seemed that the entire path would be overturned.

Li Yu snorted coldly and wrapped his whole body with spiritual power. The power of the Xuanming Sword changed, and a "splitting wind" condensed a sharp sword energy in front of the sword. The person followed the sword and hit the path directly. The magical vegetation on the side.

Seeing their prey falling into a trap, those demonized plants and trees excitedly extended their branches and leaves, and welcomed Li Yu's arrival with open teeth and claws.

"Idiot!" Li Yu sneered and crashed into the demonized vegetation without any hesitation.

The path behind him has turned into a sea of ​​roots and vines, with almost no place to stay, but this has nothing to do with Li Yu.

The branches and vines with the fastest extending tree roots collided with the arrow-shaped sword energy, and every inch was shattered in an instant. Li Yu was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, cutting a gap in the demonized vegetation in the blink of an eye.

The rest of the demonized plants and trees were tempted by the fresh prey, completely losing their fear, and flocked to Li Yu almost fanatically.

"If you are so weak, don't come out to seek death!"

Li Yu shouted loudly, and the Xuanming Sword danced in a wide arc, cutting down countless branches wherever it passed. Even if a few fish slipped through the net and hit Li Yu, they could not break his body-protecting spiritual power.

In just a few breaths, Li Yu cleared a large clearing in this piece of demonized grass and trees. The demonized grass and trees suddenly became much sparser, making it difficult to cause much damage to Li Yu.

Some relatively long roots and vines on the trail joined Li Yu's roundup, but as soon as they reached out, they were cut to pieces by Li Yu. Now the rest of the roots and vines became more obedient, and some even hid underground. .

"Tch! They're just some bluffing stuff!" Li Yu smiled coldly and prepared to leave. These demonized plants and trees were not worth his time.

Li Yu jumped back to the path and cut off a few lingering vines. Just as he was about to leave along the path, he suddenly felt that the ground beneath his feet was shaking so hard that he was thrown away and almost fell down.

Li Yu hurriedly stabilized his body and was about to hide among the demonized grass and trees again when he saw that the path was bulging in many places. In some places, it was even as high as a big tree. Even the ground under Li Yu's feet was no longer flat. A sloping slope emerged.

In the night, the pebbly ground looked like a winding dragon, with no end in sight.

Li Yu's heart tightened suddenly, because he could feel the "small path" squirming, and it seemed to contain a terrifying power. Just a single movement could destroy the world and turn the river upside down.

Leave immediately? A strong sense of danger stimulated Li Yu's brain. He had vaguely seen a huge python-like head rising quietly in the distant night, but at this moment it seemed like the giant beast that had just woken up was stretching its body.

It... doesn't seem to have discovered itself yet.

run?

Li Yu felt a sense of luck in his heart, but as soon as he turned around, he felt a sharp pain in his head, and then a weak voice echoed in his head, "Li Yu, are you an idiot? Everything here is fake!"

Fake? Ahri's voice came through the contract mark.

Ahri was reminding herself that everything here was fake.

Li Yu picked up a broken root vine and folded it hard. The toughness was clearly conveyed to his hands. How could this be fake?

Just out of trust in Ahri, Li Yu once again did another test - using mental acupuncture to stimulate his brain. This kind of crazy behavior was once Li Yu's method to deal with the lost death of the old palace master, and it could break all illusions.

But after a sharp pain in his head, Li Yu, who was sweating profusely, found that everything around him was still the same. The huge python head embedded with pebbles on the "path" was slowly turning around, and a pair of eyes as big as a basin shone in the night. With bright green light.

There was more sweat on Li Yu's forehead.

Could it be that Ahri's voice is fake? Ahri should still be sleeping, so it's unlikely that he could send a message to himself, right? But now I want to run away again...

The huge python head, comparable to that of an adult elephant, was almost in front of Li Yu. Two or three people hugged the thick snake in front of Li Yu, hesitating and vomiting, as if he was considering whether to swallow the little ant in front of him. Lose.

Li Yu clenched the Xuan Ming Sword, and at the same time he grabbed a black iron ball the size of an apple. It was the Wrath of Thunder prepared for him by Nebula City, and had helped him escape from disasters several times.

"Stab it with your sword!" Ahri's impatient voice came again in his mind.

Li Yu took a deep breath and gave up the idea of ​​​​escape. If he runs away at this time, first of all, his state of mind will be broken, and the fear of escaping will be deeply imprinted in his heart. No matter whether he advances to the king level or the emperor level in the future, he will encounter great trouble; secondly, in this case I'm afraid there is almost no chance of escape.

Li Yu squatted down on his knees and hid the Xuanming Sword under his left rib. He gently pressed the sword with his left hand holding the Wrath of Thunder, making a gesture of drawing the sword. At the same time, he concentrated all his energy and spiritual power on this Above a sword.
