In the north of the canyon, the night is like ink. The red shadow made by burning Essence Blood is already fifty steps away, and the distance is still widening rapidly.

Fifty steps... sixty steps... seventy steps!

Qin Tiexin stopped chasing, his chest heaved slightly, but his eyes were as calm as ice. At this distance, ordinary Law Technique or talismans would have been beyond the effective range, but he had other things to rely on.

His right hand calmly reached for the specially made javelin bag on his waist. His fingertips passed over the familiar metal touch, and finally stopped on a javelin with a pale blue light on the body and a cold hand - Frost Spear.

There was no impatience, no hesitation. Qin Tiexin took half a step back with his left foot, and his body was as steady as an ancient pine rooted in the earth. He took a deep breath, and the cold air poured into his lungs, suppressing the dull pain in his chest. Dantian's internal residual Primordial Unity Spiritual Power began to surge, converging on his waist, back, shoulders, and arms like an undercurrent.

The waist twisted violently like a taut bowstring, the shoulder blades pushed one after another, the muscles of the arms bulged, and the wrists shook slightly at the last moment--

The power was like a river that had been blocked by a dam for a long time. At this moment, it found its only outlet and exploded along the straight body of the javelin!

"Wha--!"

The first shot shot out of the air!

The light blue gun body dragged a straight and cold light trail in the night, like a meteor chasing the moon, far faster than the fleeing red shadow in front, and went straight to its defenseless rear vitals!

far away.

The man was relaxing a little to get rid of the pursuers for the time being, thinking about the bloody future. Suddenly, an extremely sharp sound of breaking through the air and a biting cold hit him from behind at the same time!

The hairs all over his body stood on end, and his blood-red pupils shrank sharply. "What is that?!" The alarm bells in his heart rang wildly, and the instinct formed from years of fighting surpassed thinking. The remaining left wing suddenly pressed diagonally downward in a weird posture, causing the whole body to roll awkwardly to the right!

The moment he turned sideways and opened it--

"Tsk!"

The light blue cold light brushed against the flesh of his left rib, and the cold spear tip even cut off the fascia on the edge of several wing bones. The javelin continued unabated, and was driven into the ground more than ten feet away in front of him!

"Boom!"

The ice element Spirit Rune contained in the gun body was completely activated at the moment of impact! A pit the size of a water tank suddenly exploded, and gravel splashed everywhere. What is even more terrifying is that, centered on the impact point, the ground, vegetation, and rocks within a three-foot radius instantly condensed into a thick layer of ice with a pale blue glow! The cold Cold Qi turned into white mist and spread all around.

"Hiss--!"

Although it was just a scratch, the bone-piercing chill still made the man take a breath of cold air, and a Paralysis freezing feeling came from the wound on his ribs that was opened by the gunfire. He glanced back at the terrifying ice pit in horror, his heart beating wildly.

That kid... in addition to the weird knife and Wind Blade, he actually has such a powerful long-range Law Artifact with a freezing effect?!

We can't run away like this anymore! We are just living targets!

His soul was so strong that he no longer dared to maintain a fixed flight path. The remaining left wing began to flap wildly at irregular frequencies and angles, and his body became erratic in the air, sometimes rushing to the left, sometimes to the right, drawing unpredictable fold lines, trying to use this irregular swing to avoid the next fatal throw.

Qin Tiexin stood there, his eyes fixed on the figure scurrying like a frightened bat in the sky, with no expression on his face.

Eighty steps.

The opponent's speed has slowed down due to the change of direction, and the distance is still under control.

Without any pause, he put his right hand into the javelin bag again and touched another equally cold gun body - the second Frost Spear.

Hold the gun, sink your waist, and accumulate strength.

This time, his eyes were more focused. Not only did he mobilize the little spiritual power left in his body to infuse the gun body, but he also separated a wisp of pure Divine Sense, like an invisible thread, gently wrapping around the javelin that was about to leave his hand.

The bowstring is stretched again, and the river surges again!

"Wha--!!"

Second shot, let go!

The pale blue trace of light tore through the night again, shooting straight towards the erratic red shadow. But after flying about thirty steps, the trajectory of the gun underwent an extremely slight deflection under the fine-tuning of Qin Tiexin Divine Sense - it no longer pointed directly at the opponent's current position, but pointed prejudgmentally at the opponent's next most likely dodge landing point!

in the air.

The sense of crisis in the man's heart exploded again! He almost felt the familiar soul-locking chill the moment the javelin left the string. Without any hesitation, he followed his previous successful experience and slammed his left wing in the opposite direction - that is, his left side - with all his strength, trying to roll sideways to avoid it again.

However, at the moment when his body began to tilt to the left, he was horrified to notice from the corner of his eye that the light blue light of death actually drew a tiny, counterintuitive arc in the air, as if it was alive, and "turned" in the direction he was avoiding at the moment!

"What?!"

He was so horrified that it was too late to change his direction!

"Pfft--!"

The cold tip of the gun accurately hit the root joint of his left wing! The tough skin, flesh and fascia were easily torn, and the gun body was deeply embedded until it was less than half submerged!

"Click... click..."

At the moment of the hit, the ice element Spirit Rune carved on the gun burst out with a blue light that was far more dazzling than the first shot! The extremely cold air spurted out crazily, spreading rapidly along the wound to his wing root, shoulder and back, and even half of his body! Light blue frost covered his left wing, left shoulder, left arm, and even the side of his neck at a speed visible to the naked eye!

"Uhhhhh--!"

He let out a painful howl, and felt that half of his body instantly lost consciousness, feeling heavy, numb, and bitingly cold. The movement of the left wing that flapped became stiff and slow, almost stagnant. The originally erratic and agile flight path stopped abruptly, and the speed of his whole body dropped sharply, like a flying insect frozen in the air, teetering on the verge of collapse.

Not good!!

Bone-breaking despair instantly overwhelmed him. His mobility was greatly restricted, and he would definitely not be able to dodge the next attack!

Qin Tiexin's face was also a little pale at the moment. Throwing Frost Spear twice in a row with all his strength, especially the fine Divine Sense control attached to the second shot, was a huge drain on his remaining spiritual power and mind. However, the cold murderous intent in his eyes did not weaken at all.

He put his hand into his bag for the third time, and his fingertips touched a javelin with a warm body and a faint wave of restless fire spirit - Bursting Spear. Inside the gun head, the miniature Fire Element magic circle was already in a state of being activated, waiting for only a violent impact.

He did not hesitate to pour all the last almost dry spiritual energy in Dantian into this Bursting Spear without reservation and even somewhat roughly!

"Buzz--!"

The gun body trembled slightly, and the color quickly changed from dark red to blazing red, like a red-hot iron, emitting dangerous high temperatures and violent fluctuations. At the tip of the gun, a dazzling golden-red light lit up, which was extremely compressed fire spiritual power.

There is no time to adjust, and there is no need for Divine Sense direction control.

Qin Tiexin's arm muscles spasmed slightly due to excessive exertion, but his throwing movements were still as steady as a rock.

Turn your waist, send your shoulders, and throw your arms!

"Wha--!!!"

The third shot turned into a burning crimson meteor and left the string! The speed of this shot seemed to be faster and more fierce than the first two shots. It dragged a long flame tail and shot straight towards the almost frozen and slow-moving target in the air!

The man in the sky watched helplessly as the life-threatening red light rapidly magnified in his field of vision, and the shadow of death was completely shrouded. He desperately tried to mobilize the last remaining Blood Sha Qi in his body, which condensed into a thin and dim barrier behind him, and his face was full of twisted fear and unwillingness.

But it's all in vain.

"Pfft--!"

The burning tip of the spear was like a red-hot nail Penetration tissue, easily tearing apart the fragile Sha Qi barrier, and hit him in the middle of the back of the heart with incomparable accuracy!

At the moment of impact, the extremely suppressed miniature Fire Element array inside the gun head was completely detonated!

"Boom--!!!!!"

The deafening explosion reverberated across the valley! A dazzling fireball suddenly expanded in mid-air, and the red flames mixed with violent shock waves raged crazily around!

It was vaguely visible that the broken body at the center of the explosion was torn apart and thrown away from the inside by this destructive force! The residual limbs, flesh and blood, and bone fragments were mixed with burning wing membrane fragments, scattering like raindrops!

The burning remains were lifted high by the shock wave, drawing a black smoke parabola, and finally fell heavily into the pile of rocks fifty steps away, making a dull loud noise, stirring up a cloud of dust, and making no more noise.

The moment Qin Tiexin fired the third shot, he did not stay where he was and wait for the result. He endured the weakness of his body and the emptiness of exhausted spiritual power. He exerted force on his feet, started the basic cycle of Wood Phase Steps that was maintained only by physical strength, and rushed towards the direction of the explosion.

Last hit. Death must be confirmed.

By the time he arrived at the messy fall point, panting heavily, the battle was completely over.

The mutilated body was almost torn into pieces, and the dark red and almost black blood was soaked into the gravel and scorched earth. The remaining left wing, covered with light blue frost, twisted and drooped aside, still slightly sweating Cold Qi. The head with a ferocious face and severed horns rolled down on the edge of a rock. The dark red pupils had completely dimmed, condensing the ultimate fear and resentment in the last moments. There still seemed to be a rudiment of a cruel arc that would not bloom in the future at the corner of the mouth.

The rich Blood Sha Qi is slowly floating out from the corpse, with the final unwillingness and evil.

The Edgeless in Qin Tiexin's hand felt clear desire and tremor again. He stepped forward and gently brought the tip of the knife close to the dissipating Sha Qi.

Like a long whale sucking water, the remaining Blood Sha Qi was pulled by the invisible force and quickly merged into one stream, pouring into Edgeless Saber's body. The blade hummed slightly, and there was a clear and incomparable emotional wave of "satisfaction" and "pleasure". Qin Tiexin Note I noticed that the tiny cracks on the blade, the nodes with poor spiritual energy operation, and the various shallow marks left by old and new battles that [Spirit Rune Weakness Insight] had seen before, were quickly healed and disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye at this moment, and the entire blade seemed to have been carefully tempered and polished, taking on a new look.

"Hiccup--"

Even after absorbing the last trace of Sha Qi, Edgeless Saber trembled slightly, and slowly "spit" out a fingertip-sized, round and clear bead from the tip of the knife. The bead was a blend of red and black. The color is as if there is liquid flowing slowly in it, but it is cold to the touch. There is no Sha Qi or Blood Qi leaking out, and no spiritual energy fluctuations can be sensed. It is smooth and warm, and I don't know what kind of material it is.

Qin Tiexin frowned slightly, picked up the strange bead, looked at it carefully for a moment, and still didn't understand why. Edgeless was already strange enough to be able to absorb Sha Qi Repair, but now it could "condensate" it into something physical? He shook his head and carefully put it into the innermost layer of Storage Bag, leaving it for future exploration.

After doing this, he squatted down and began to carefully examine the extraordinary corpse at his feet.

Upon closer inspection, the black creeping lines under the skin, the weird bone angles that were broken and intact on the forehead, the remaining wing Root Bone bone structure at the tear on the back, and the dark blue skin and blood color that were very different from the human race... every detail impacted Qin Tiexin's perception of "monk" or "Demon Beast".

What on earth is this?

Qin Tiexin was silent for a moment, and took out a vacant Storage Bag from Storage Bag that was specially used to store miscellaneous items. He endured the smell of blood and collected the broken corpses, broken arms, broken wings, and the head on the ground one by one. Blood Sha Qi on the broken corpse had been sucked out by Edgeless, so there was nothing unusual at this moment.

He must bring this thing back to the sect. Flowing Cloud Sect An elder or sect leader with a long history and extensive knowledge may be able to recognize the origin of this thing.

After simply adjusting his breath and regaining some strength, Qin Tiexin stood up. The canyon was Return to Stillness quiet, with only the night wind blowing through the sobbing of the land of scorched earth and frost. He took one last look at the direction where the man's head rolled down, and those dim blood eyes seemed to still be staring at him in the darkness.

There are no answers, only deeper doubts.

Must return as soon as possible.
