"What!" Xu Dingjia was shocked. He just ran away in the direction farthest from the Guixu believers. He didn't expect anything in that direction.
There are several people behind him who are chasing closely now. If they change direction temporarily, they might take a shortcut and catch up. Now that Jiang Cheng and Xu Dingjia were in trouble, they could only bite the bullet and continue running, hoping that the strange energy in their bodies could be resolved by mental power before hitting the vine jungle. By that time, there may still be the strength to fight. This is the only hope for Jiang Cheng and others, but it is also an uncertain factor. Because that power is so weird and stubborn, even Jiang Cheng, who has a real-life physique, can't tell when he will be able to eliminate it.
The two of them continued to run so hard, but the black cat lying behind Jiang Cheng was leisurely. He rolled his eyes and suddenly said: "Did you find a problem?"
Xu Dingjia cursed: "What problems are there to think about now? It's too late to escape!"
Jiang Cheng calmed down a little, so he asked, "What did you find?"
Black Cat said: "I recall the direction in which the three Zhou brothers appeared. They clearly came from the stronghold. Don't you think it's strange?"
"Is there anything strange?" Xu Dingjia said as he ran, "The evil spell of thorn vines requires nearly a hundred Guixu believers to jointly perform. Their spiritual will must be connected to the city. It is not difficult for them to send messages across the air."
"You don't understand what I mean." Black Cat shook his head and said, "I mean, if they can all discover our location, why is no one chasing us from the direction of the camp?"
"In the direction of the camp!" Jiang Cheng was stunned and couldn't help but slow down and murmured: "They didn't chase us. Could it be that they were ambushing in front?"
When Xu Dingjia heard this, he became nervous and stopped quickly.
But the black cat screamed, "Don't stop! How do those people know which direction you are running in? How can they ambush you in advance! Are you out of your mind?"
Jiang Cheng said in a deep voice: "Even if we want to continue running, we have no chance."
While speaking, Jiang Cheng looked into the distance. Although his mental power was blocked, he could still see the existence of the vines.
Xu Dingjia naturally saw the vines in front of him. He turned around, faced the pursuers, and said, "If we are chased any longer, we will rush into the vines. We can't escape now. If we fight to the death, , maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.”
Black Cat understood that the vines were ahead and there was no way to retreat. He jumped off Jiang Cheng's back and took out a dagger hidden in his arms. From the looks of it, Black Cat wants to fight side by side with Jiang Cheng.
While staring at the chasing Guixu believers, Jiang Cheng said to Black Cat: "Now it seems that the rescue operation has failed. While we are stopping these people, you should run away quickly and tell the clan leader what happened here. In addition, If you can survive the next catastrophe, go back to the lunatic asylum for me."
Jiang Cheng's words were already his last words. Black Cat sighed softly, curled his lips and said, "You have to go back and see for yourself! You are a real person, do you admit defeat so soon?"
"Now that things have happened, do you still believe in that so-called prophecy? We are now under attack from both sides, and it is almost impossible to escape alive!" Jiang Cheng said.
"I don't care too much about prophecies." Black Cat said indifferently, "But I always feel that we may not be in a desperate situation now!"
"Feeling?" Jiang Cheng frowned, not knowing what the young man in front of him was referring to.
At this time, Xu Dingjia warned, "The Zhou brothers are chasing us!"
Jiang Cheng braced himself, grasped his weapon, and began to attack the enemy. The black cat's voice rang in his ears, "Anyway, if I survive the attacks in front of me, if my feeling is correct, there may be a glimmer of hope."
"I hope your feeling is right." Jiang Cheng replied, just to stop everyone from being too pessimistic.
While they were talking, the three Zhou brothers and Chen Jie were already chasing after them, and were less than four or five meters away from them. The long chase made the four people exhausted. Seeing Jiang Cheng and others right in front of them, they finally slowed down.
Jiang Cheng and Xu Dingjia had stopped to rest for a while, the purpose of which was to wait for work and weaken the enemy's strength. Now seeing the four Guixu believers approaching, Jiang Cheng and Xu Dingjia looked at each other, and instead of retreating, they advanced and rushed towards the pursuers who had just slowed down!
During the chase, the Zhou brothers had learned from Chen Jie that Jiang Cheng and Xu Dingjia were no longer able to use their mental power and had become no different from ordinary people. After receiving this news, everyone lost their worries and chased after him. No one wanted to let go of such an excellent opportunity to claim credit.
After chasing for a while, the Guixu believers couldn't help but feel a little surprised when they found that the people in front had given up escaping and instead turned around to attack.
Zhou Xian seemed to have a murderous look on his face and couldn't help but feel suspicious. He asked Chen Jie, "Could it be that they have regained their abilities?"
Chen Jie was not sure, so he just said, "It shouldn't be that fast."
Zhou Hang said from the side: "One of the other parties is a real person, we cannot take it lightly."
As the boss, Zhou Hao had a rather fiery temper. He walked straight towards the visitor and said, "You will only know if you have tried to recover your ability!"
As he spoke, Zhou Hao drew out the long knife from his waist, raised it high above his head, and slashed down at Xu Dingjia, who was the first to step forward.
Xu Dingjia and Jiang Cheng were still unable to use their mental power, so they both held vajras in their left hands and hunting knives in their right hands to face the enemy. When Xu Dingjia saw Zhou Hao's powerful and heavy sword, he knew that he couldn't block it, so he quickly turned sideways to avoid it. However, when he heard Zhou Hao suddenly yelled, Xu Dingjia suddenly felt a chill all over his body, as if his blood had frozen, and his movements were not smooth. It was at this time that the long knife drew a silver arc and swept towards it.
This time, Xu Dingjia could no longer avoid it.
Just hearing a bang, Jiang Cheng appeared in front of Xu Dingjia and blocked the fatal knife with his vajra. Although he blocked the opponent's attack, Jiang Cheng felt his whole arm numb and was unable to fight back for a while.
Zhou Hao became more and more courageous as he fought. When he put away his sword, he stepped forward and his eyes flashed with a strange light.
Xu Dingjia had already suffered a loss before and quickly warned: "He will use illusions between attacks, be careful!"
The warning came too late. Jiang Cheng suddenly felt as if his chest had been hit by a sledgehammer. He groaned and stumbled back, making it very difficult to breathe. Seeing that the evil spell had hurt the opponent, Zhou Hao did not relax his hand. He straightened up his long knife and stabbed Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng was unable to resist, and watched helplessly as the long knife approached, and he felt a faint chill on the tip of his nose.
Fortunately, Xu Dingjia yelled and rushed out from the side. After a sound of gold and iron, he blocked Jiang Cheng's heart-piercing knife. While blocking the opponent's attack, Xu Dingjia stepped forward and greeted Zhou Hao with the hunting knife in his right hand.
Seeing that this blow was about to succeed, Xu Dingjia heard Jiang Cheng shouting a warning, "Be careful on the left!"
At the same time, Xu Dingjia heard a burst of sound coming from the left and turned around in a hurry, only to see the shadow of a spear stabbing towards his face.
