The black crane crossed the valley and plunged into the dense forest.
He thought that he knew the environment deep in the jungle better than the two people chasing him, Xia Qiu and Yu Hexian, where there were dense branches and leaves as cover, and in order to fly smoothly between the trees, he had to slow down his flying speed. For him, the advantages of the environment will become more obvious.
Yuhe Immortal had also escaped the pursuit of white bats in the dense forest before, so he knew that it was not suitable for a huge dew holy beast like Xiaolibai, so he said to Xia Qiu: "I will find a way to catch up with him, you continue in Fly up in the sky and wait for my signal!"
He pointed at the horn that Elder Anhui had given them hanging around his neck, and then quickly lowered his flight altitude and disappeared under the layered canopy of trees, connected like dark green clouds.
Although it was already morning, it was still difficult for the light to penetrate into the dense forest. Feather Crane Sage had no choice but to use his hearing to judge Black Crane's escape route. In addition, he also had another weapon, which was intuition, also called the sixth sense. Heihe once easily found the tree house he built, precisely because of the similarities in their thinking patterns, and now he can also follow the law.
The black crane flies left and right, up and down, and sometimes changes direction suddenly. He felt that the feather cloak on his body was becoming more and more obstructive, so he simply pulled it off his body. During the rampage, many small cuts were scratched on his body by branches, but to him, these small injuries were no different from scratching an itch compared to the pain he suffered in the Black Fire Purgatory.
Feather Crane Immortal also suffered a lot of injuries, and there was a stinging pain like ants gnawing from the place scratched by the branches, but he couldn't care so much because he found that his idea was indeed right, even though half of it depended on luck. , but the distance between him and Heihe is still gradually shortening.
Heihe was alert that he had underestimated his opponent again, but it was already too late. Even without looking back, he could hear the Yuhe Sage behind him getting closer and closer to him.
While he began to fly in a curve among the trees, he summoned his halberd to prepare for the attack from Yu Hexian at any time. He embedded as many green crystals as possible on his halberd, and they flashed in the dim light from time to time. There was light in the dense forest, and the attack power of the halberd increased several times.
Feather Crane Sage also summoned the long dagger that he was good at using. Compared with Black Crane's, his small weapon did not seem to be in the same weight class as it, but he quickly noticed that in When fighting between tree trunks, this short weapon should have the advantage.
More than once, he was only an arm's length away from catching the black crane, but he was allowed to escape. However, Feather Crane Sage was not discouraged, but continued to concentrate on avoiding hitting the tree trunk while following closely. Keep the black crane alive.
Finally, Heihe panicked and couldn't keep his shoulder away from a tree. The impact caused by the high-speed flight seriously affected the balance of his body. He leaned to the side and almost fell to the ground.
Just as Yuzuru Sennin was about to take the opportunity to blow his horn, Black Crane bounced off the ground with force and launched an attack on him first. Without the cover of the cloak, Heihe looked very cautious. If his purple pupils were not the same as before, it would be difficult to think of what he looked like when he was a Black Crane spirit beast.
The halberd in his hand grazed the left half of Yuhe Immortal's cheek, but hit the tree trunk behind him, affecting the speed of the next attack and allowing Yuhe Immortal to dodge to the side. Immortal Yu He then counterattacked him with a long dagger. He blocked it with the handle of the halberd, and then used the bottom of the handle to punch the ground. With the help of this force, his body flew out, and the next chase began immediately.
Yuhe Sennin was a little annoyed that he missed the opportunity to capture him after catching up with him, but it only took less than a second to regroup and continue to chase him.
The moment Black Crane's shoulder hit the tree trunk, his speed was slightly affected, but Yuhe Sage did not slow down at all, so Black Crane did not escape far before he was caught up again.
This time, he considered that his weapons needed a larger space to use, so he chose to land in a wider space than before. He pretended to be calm and said: "What? It was only a few days after you lost to me last time. You can't hold it back anymore and you're going to die. I let you go before because of our friendship with Zeng in the God's Realm, but you won't be so lucky this time."
"How long have we known each other? You remember it better than I do. Why continue to show off, Black Crane? Your plan has completely failed. Give up the useless resistance!" Yuhe Sage was not affected by him, but He responded very calmly.
"Give up resistance?! What a joke! How is that possible?! Even you and that human girl combined may not be my opponent. Why should I surrender to you?" Hei He was moved by Yu He Sage's extraordinary calmness. Excited, he said angrily.
"If it's really what you said, why do you need to run away?"
Feather Crane Immortal laughed. Just as he was about to blow his horn quickly, Black Crane's halberd struck first. He raised his hand and pressed the long dagger against the top of the halberd. Heihe tried to compete with him, but the opponent was more powerful than he imagined.
But Black Crane, who seemed to be at a disadvantage in terms of strength, had a sly smile on his ugly face, and Master Yuhe was puzzled by his meaning.
It wasn't until the monster he saw turned his wrist that he yelled "Not good!"
When the black crane's halberd rotated, it was like an electric drill with a motor, producing a powerful impact that forced the Yuhe Immortal to take a few steps back, and his body was pressed against a tree. At this moment, if the dagger in his hand slipped even a little, or if the strength was even the slightest bit slack, the halberd would go straight through his chest and pin him to the tree behind him. His left hand supporting the long dagger was already bleeding. Even with both hands working together, he could barely hold the stall. Unreasonably, he let go of his left hand, grabbed the horn hanging around his neck, and held it It sounded.
Toot.
He didn't know whether Xia Qiu could still hear the sound of the horn after it was filtered by the thick branches and leaves above, and he didn't know how far away she was from him, but he wanted to take a gamble this time. In his long life, there always seemed to be something missing, maybe that was what humans call passion. But the god Gansu's prophecy about his death made him brave. Originally, he wanted to gamble his life on this, but he won the bet.
Qingyun's reminder to pay attention to human girls still lingered in Heihe's heart. As soon as the horn sounded, he became even more desperate. He put away the halberd that could kill the Yuhe Immortal and ran away again.
When Immortal Yuhe's horn sounded, Xia Qiu had to be thankful that she was not too far away from him. In fact, the main reason is that Xiaolibai is as familiar with the dense forest as Heihe, and its excellent spiritual power also makes its senses in all aspects become more acute when it is in the state of soul separation.
"Xiao Libai, charge forward!"
Xia Qiu gave an order, and Xiao Libai flashed into the dense forest like an arrow from the string. The sharp branches made a cut under Xia Qiu's eyes. She blinked unconsciously. At the same time, two shadows, one black and one white, flew right in front of her. Their speed is quite fast, and they are constantly changing directions flexibly from tree to tree.
Immortal Yu He continued to accelerate, intending to rush in front of Hei He and intercept him, so that he and Xia Qiu could surround him. Although his life was hanging by a thread just now, it was precisely because of this that he was so relaxed and worry-free at this moment. This was the first time that he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the battle, no longer worrying about trivial matters, and no longer hoping to save those souls that had long been corrupted from the depths. All he has to do is protect the people he wants to protect.
Heihe only felt a gust of wind blowing over his head, and the Yuhe Immortal stood in front of him incredibly. He had no choice but to stop flying, hang in the air and shout hysterically: "To this day, you still stubbornly fight against me?!"
"Whether it was in the past or now, the thing that I want to protect the most is always the thing that you want to obtain and destroy the most. This may be the bad relationship between you and me. Today, let's put an end to it here!" Yu The crane immortal raised the long dagger in his hand and pointed it directly at the black crane.
"Senior Yuhe, are you not injured?" Xia Qiu has also rushed behind Heihe. She is not only asking Immortal Yuhe, but also distracting the enemy's attention.
As she spoke, she had already pointed the Feather Arrow of Light at Heihe's back. She remembered what Immortal Feather Crane told her. There were only three Feather Arrows of Light, and one of them had to hit Heihe's heart. It was successful, but it was precisely because the number of arrows was too small that she hesitated when taking action.
Heihe felt the cold light coming from behind him, and he was frightened when he recalled the shining arrow in the girl's hand. However, he did not choose to continue to dodge, but decided to launch an offensive against Yu Hexian again. As long as he could fight with him, it would be difficult for the human girl to have a chance to fire an arrow.
Xia Qiu had long expected that Heihe would never sit still and wait for death, so he was not in a hurry to take action. At this moment, the other party was in the middle of a fight with Feather Crane Immortal. The two of them moved very fast, and the black and white colors of their clothes often overlapped, so she had to temporarily put away the feather arrows of light.
As soon as Yu Heshengren caught the halberd swung by Hei He from above his head, the opponent somersaulted behind him and continued to stab him with the halberd. After easily dodging this attack, he raised his hand and flew the long dagger towards Heihe's chest.
The dagger was spinning rapidly. Heihe raised his halberd and tried to hit it to the side. However, after several attempts, except for the sparks ejected from the collision of the two weapons, nothing could change its direction.
He yelled angrily: "What kind of weird trick is this?! I didn't remember you knowing this trick before!"
"During the long years I lived on the Changsheng Island, I only had cranes as my companions, so I had a lot of time to spend." As he spoke, the Feather Crane Immortal suddenly flashed in front of the Black Crane, and easily caught himself before flying out. After taking the long dagger, he stabbed it at the black crane.
Heihe only felt that the half of his shoulder that had hit the tree trunk was more painful. Immortal Yuhe's long dagger had penetrated through his clothes. What spurted out from the wound was not blood, but hot magma.
He sneered arrogantly and said: "Haha, it's useless, I am immortal in the state of soul separation!"
"Then how about trying this?" Xia Qiu said as he shot an arrow from his back.
The feather arrow of light went straight through Heihe's chest, bringing real pain that he had not felt for a long time. He let out a shrill scream, thinking that he was really going to die at the hands of a human girl, but after waiting for a while, he found that he was still alive. The arrow did go through the left side of his chest, but unfortunately his heart was strangely located on the right side.
He felt that this was a rare opportunity and deliberately continued to pretend to be in extreme pain, making both Yuhe Immortal and Xia Qiu think that he would definitely die. At this moment, he suddenly raised his hand and inserted his halberd into Yuhe Immortal's abdomen.
