The night is dark and windy.
In the dense forest outside Hongyun City, ancient trees that reach the clouds one by one are wrapped in silver clothes under the moonlight.
Qin Shi stepped on the ancient trees and galloped quickly through the mountain forest, chasing the seriously injured Blood Wolf Demon King.
But he didn't expect that the blood wolf demon king was extremely fast. Even if he was seriously injured, he could still throw Qin Shi farther and farther away.
"Damn it, this can't go on like this!"
Seeing that the distance was widened, Qin Shi felt a little impatient. The further he chased, he almost lost track of where he was. If he continued to follow, he would definitely get lost.
"If I can break the barrier of the beast taming ring, I can use my mental power and evil spirit to kill this beast!" Feeling a little impatient, Qin Shi increased his speed again.
After chasing all the way, one wolf and one man had jumped out of the dense forest and found themselves in a pile of rocks.
"Shitou, look ahead." Suddenly, Shuyu shouted.
Qin Shi raised his head and saw a faint fluorescent bracelet in front of the blood wolf demon king galloping among the rocks. The fluorescence on the bracelet complemented the barrier around the blood wolf demon king and flickered continuously.
"It's an animal taming ring!"
Qin Shi's eyes lit up.
"Roar—" the Blood Wolf Demon King let out a long roar and rushed to the beast taming ring. It opened its bloody mouth and writhed in the pile of rocks for a while, biting the beast taming ring, then picked it up and tried to escape again.
"Hey, this beast is quite smart, isn't it?" Qin Shi laughed and cursed, then turned his sleeves over, raised the Netherworld Sword, and threw it with all his strength.
Whoosh!
The Nether Sword was extremely fast, flying out like an arrow from Li Xuan, and struck into the beast taming ring with one blow.
After wrapping the beast taming ring, the Nether Sword stabbed into the pile of rocks and hit a huge rock.
Qin Shi was behind, leaping forward and holding the Netherworld Sword tightly.
"Roar-"
The beast taming ring was taken away, and the Blood Wolf Demon King became nervous and growled restlessly.
The wild beast signed by the beast taming ring cannot leave the beast taming ring too far, otherwise it will be killed by the spiritual pressure in the barrier.
"Hey, little guy, there is no place to run this time, right?" Pulling out the Nether Sword, Qin Shi held the beast taming ring in his hand. He exerted force with one hand, and the blue beast taming ring suddenly dimmed, and a line appeared. A crack.
"Roar-"
The Blood Wolf Demon King roared loudly and rushed towards Qin Shi.
But at this time, Qin Shi's eyes changed, and the beast taming ring suddenly shattered, and was ground into powder by spiritual power.
The moment the beast taming ring shattered, the Blood Wolf Demon King's body trembled, and the barrier around him shattered.
Without the beast taming barrier, even powerful wild beasts would be vulnerable to Qin Shi.
"Little guy, don't say I'm cruel, I'll give you a good time!" Facing the bloody mouth, Qin Shi did not dodge, he directly rolled up his sleeves, and a wave of evil energy swept over him.
As soon as the evil spirit came out, the sky was dark and the earth was dark.
The wild evil aura is like a giant beast from the Dragon Abyss, rushing towards the Blood Wolf Demon King with bloodthirsty.
The pervasive evil spirit, with the devouring power of strong infection, wrapped around the body of the Blood Wolf Demon King.
The strong and burly body of the Blood Wolf Demon King suddenly became sluggish, and he fell to the ground twitching. His stiff blood-colored hair began to metamorphose little by little, and his skin shriveled up and turned into white bones.
"Finally solved."
With a long sigh, Qin Shi stepped over the pile of rocks and walked to the corpse of the Blood Wolf Demon King holding the Netherworld Sword.
With a move of the Nether Sword, a blood-red beast pill rolled down among the white bones. The beast pill was filled with pungent blood, and the faint red light was like a dragon's eye, mixed with resentment.
"Sister Yu, is this thing able to restore big wood?" Qin Shi picked up the blood-colored beast pill and fiddled with it before asking.
While wandering around the burning book, the jade from the book floated out: "Well, you summon the Blood Puppet King, inject this beast elixir into the Blood Puppet King's eyebrows, brake it with blood, and recreate the contract."
No nonsense, according to what Yu said in the book, Qin Shi waved his hand to call out the Blood Puppet King. Summoning the Blood Puppet King, he clutched the blood-colored beast elixir and placed his hands on his chest. A clear spiritual power enveloped the beast elixir and injected it bit by bit into the forehead of the Blood Puppet King.
The Blood Puppet King was seriously injured last time and his whole body was in disarray.
The beast elixir was injected into the center of his eyebrows. His limbs, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly had veins popping out, and the withered blood bulged out. His whole body was filled with fresh blood.
In just half an hour, the Blood Puppet King recovered as before.
The difference is that after the Blood Puppet King diluted the beast pill, the skin all over his body became brighter, and his strength in the middle stage of the Soul-Breaking Realm was improved to the late stage of the Soul-Breaking Realm.
"Breakthrough?"
Qin Shi was quite surprised when he circled around the Blood Puppet King.
He didn't expect that a dead object could actually improve his realm
Also a little surprised, Shuyu looked up and down before saying, "Shitou, this Blood Puppet King is made from the essence and blood of tens of millions of dead corpses. It can remind you of your strength by swallowing the essence and blood."
Qin Shi suddenly realized, recalling the scene where the blood puppets merged with each other under the Jueqing Cliff. This ability was really scary.
"It seems that we should find more essence and blood for the big wood in the future. If it is cultivated into the Xuanling realm, it will be very exciting to pull it out." Qin Shi nodded with satisfaction and took back the blood puppet with a wave of his hand.
After taking back the blood puppet, Qin Shi felt a little tired. When he fought with the Blood Wolf Demon King before, he suffered serious injuries, especially the one he blocked for Shi Lan, which really cost him half his life.
To do this, he sat cross-legged and circulated the rain and dew.
A cool and pleasant feeling fills the whole body, and the wound is quickly healed.
When he recovered and stood up slowly, he saw Shuyu beside him, his brows furrowed all the time, and he couldn't help but ask: "Sister Yu, what do you mean by this expression?"
"Stone, don't you think something is wrong?"
"Something's wrong? What do you mean?" Qin Shi narrowed his eyes and asked.
"The master of the Blood Wolf Demon King!" After careful consideration, Shu Yu groaned in a deep voice.
Qin Shi's eyes suddenly widened, and then he recalled that he pursued the Blood Wolf Demon King all the way, but did not see the owner of the Blood Wolf Demon King, and the beast taming ring was thrown into the pile of rocks.
A wild beast cannot sign a beast taming ring alone, Qin Shi knows this.
"Could it be that someone deliberately wanted to lure me here?" Qin Shi pondered for a moment, but became even more puzzled: "But why? He deliberately lured me here, but did not take action, and instead asked me to kill the Blood Wolf Demon King..."
"Could it be..."
Suddenly, Qin Shi and Shuyu were startled at the same time. They looked at each other and said in a panic, "Is this an attack from the east to the west?"
"Their destination... is Shilan?"
His heart was shocked, Qin Shi became nervous, and soon he didn't dare to think too much. He turned around after lifting the Nether Sword, jumped out of the rocks and plunged into the forest, and galloped back along the way he came.
He worked hard and returned several times faster than when he came. The worry in his heart made him exceed his limit.
Although he and Shilan had known each other for a short time, they still had feelings for each other. Besides, he had sworn that he would never let anyone around him get hurt again, no matter who.
"Don't worry..."
He took a deep breath, and his body was once again buried in the dark night. Afterimages brought rustling fallen leaves in the forest.
Soon he returned to the cave where he started.
Just after returning to the cave, Shilan sat alone at the entrance of the cave, lowering her head and stroking her long golden-brown hair under the moonlight.
"Shilan!"
With a cry of surprise, Qin Shi rushed to Shilan, helped Shilan up, and asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"
"No, it's okay!"
Shilan was a little flustered when she saw Qin Shi. Her eyes were blurred, and she didn't dare to look at Qin Shi. She lowered her head and whispered softly: "What about you? Have you caught up with the Blood Wolf Demon King?"
Putting his hands on Shilan's shoulders, Qin Shi looked up and down and felt relieved when he saw that Shilan was really fine.
He was silent for a while and said, "Yes, I caught up."
After calming down, Shilan took a few deep breaths, and then she returned to her natural smile and said, "That's pretty much it. Otherwise, you'd be sorry if you didn't catch up with me for leaving me behind for so long."
Qin Shi nodded.
He was not talking, but felt a little depressed in his heart. He always felt that something was not right about this matter. After all, the owner of the Blood Wolf Demon King had not been seen yet, but if his purpose was not Shi Lan, what would it be
These became the puzzles in Qin Shi's mind.
"Let's go back and wait for Old Ghost Pu. When he comes back, we will rush to the ancient city." After hesitation, Qin Shi straightened his clothes, turned around and walked towards the place where the camphor tree spirit started.
After this, Shilan obviously talked a lot less.
Qin Shi didn't ask much, thinking he was just frightened.
The distance of one thousand meters, the two of them were not in a hurry to slow down, but they walked for less than half an hour.
Following Qin Shi, Shilan's expression was not very good.
She hesitated for a while, clenched her pink fist at the corner of her clothes, and suddenly asked: "The victim, why did you try so hard to save me just now?"
"Um?"
Qin Shi turned around, saw Zhengse Shilan, and laughed: "Silly, if I can't protect a woman, what kind of man am I? Besides, if you follow me, I will definitely not let anything happen to you."
"What about sacrificing yourself? You might have died just now."
"I know, I won't die!" Shaking his head, Qin Shi responded firmly: "I cherish my life. This is true. I have relatives, brothers, and people to protect, so I know that I will not die. .”
"They are so happy!" Shilan's voice was a little sad.
Feeling that something was wrong, Qin Shi slowed down and took a picture of Shilan: "Are you stupid, aren't you also the person I want to protect? Don't worry, I, Qin Shi, have never misjudged anyone."
"Because I misjudged them. They are not human beings."
With a loud laugh, Qin Shi continued to move forward.
Shilan was behind. Looking at the figure in front of her, she couldn't help but feel shaken.
She seemed to see a very blazing light on Qin Shi's body. This kind of light could still illuminate his direction even in the dark night when he couldn't see his fingers.
"The one who protects you?"
After murmuring, Shilan shook her head sadly: "What kind of person are you?"
"If, one day, you know that my approach to you is just a shocking conspiracy, I'm afraid you will hate me to death...?" With a heavy heart, Shilan followed Qin Shi.
The two quickly returned to Camphor Tree Spirit's location.
The thick trunk of the camphor tree essence is still here, but the vitality and spiritual power in it have been exhausted.
Looking at the trunk of the camphor tree spirit, Qin Shi felt very angry, but when he thought of the camphor tree spirit turning into a baby, he couldn't help but want to laugh, and finally shook his head.
Qin Shi and Shi Lan sat down next to the tree trunk.
But as soon as he sat down, Qin Shi's body trembled and he felt warmth coming from under his buttocks. He reached down curiously and touched a purple token on the waistband of his trousers.
This purple token is flashing with a faint light. Isn't it the original Lihuo Order of Lihuo Sect
When Su Ming, Yin Mo, Qin Shang and Xu Qiaoer withdrew from the sect outside the Burning Heaven Secret Territory, it was said that the Lihuo Sect was all crushed, but it was him who was expelled from the sect, and the Lihuo Order was always hung on the sect. On the body.
Seeing the flashing Lihuo Order, Qin Shi knew that this was the Lihuo Sect's way of conveying messages.
After hesitating, Qin Shi used his spiritual power, curious to see what the Lihuo Sect was doing.
But when his telekinesis rushed into the token, his eyes were suddenly startled.
