When Morning Star Training Ground, she once stood behind Xiao Yan, wearing an inconspicuous dress, a sun-shading bamboo hat on her head, holding Xiao Yan's brocade cloak in her hand, and never said a word from the beginning to the end.
If Qin Tiexin hadn't noticed the aura characteristics of everyone around Xiao Yan at that time, he wouldn't have remembered this face.
Silver-white pythons swam slowly around her.
The girl took a step to the left, and the python rammed from the left like lightning, knocking her out with her sword and hitting her on the stone wall. The girl slid down the stone wall, coughed twice and spit out a mouthful of blood.
When she struggled to stand up, the python circled to her right again, swept her with its tail, and knocked her to the ground.
When the girl stood up again, the broken sword shook in her hand, but it was still pointed in the direction of the python. She stood up and stabbed out with the sword, but the python easily dodged and whipped her to the ground with its tail.
It's playing.
The girl's cultivation level has just reached Foundation Establishment Late Stage. With its speed and strength, it only needs one attack to kill the girl. But if it doesn't kill, it just wants to watch her fall and stand up again and again until it exhausts the last bit of strength, just like a cat playing with a mouse.
Qin Tiexin leaned behind the remaining wall, frowning slightly, but had no intention of taking action.
He vaguely felt something was wrong.
This stone forest is less than half a mile away from the Pure Land Chan Temple mountain gate. There are several Golden Core Realm auras lingering around it. It is unreasonable for a maid with a cultivation level of no more than Foundation Establishment Middle Stage to appear here alone.
In addition, her status as Xiao Yan's maid also made Qin Tiexin feel resentful from the bottom of his heart. Qin Tiexin had no good impression of Xiao Yan. The woman went to Lin Residence and demanded to break off the engagement with Lin Feng in public, calling him a waste.
Her maid, Qin Tiexin, has no reason to save her.
Besides, the most important thing now is to enter the Zen temple to find something with the same origin. The severed arm shook slightly on the right shoulder, pointing to the depths of the Zen temple, and the distance was very close. At this time, it is inappropriate to have an extraneous branch.
But there is only this stone forest path.
The stone walls on both sides are tall and steep, and climbing will expose the entire ruins to the view. Further outside is either the territory of the Golden Core Realm Demon Beast, or the forbidden remains in the ruins. It takes too long to go around, and you don't know what else you will encounter along the way.
Just as he was weighing it, the silver-white python suddenly stopped moving.
Its triangular head slowly turned toward the remaining wall where Qin Tiexin was hiding, and its vertical pupils suddenly shrank. There was an extremely strong Qi and Blood in that direction, stronger than any human monk it had ever seen.
It no longer pays attention to the girl.
The python's tail flicked casually, and the thick tail tip hit the girl's head. The girl groaned and hit the stone wall behind her. Her body slid down softly. The broken sword fell from her hand and hit the gravel with a clang.
Her breathing became extremely weak, her chest rose and fell slowly, and she completely lost consciousness.
The python turned its head and opened its mouth.
Two rows of sharp fangs glowed with a cold white luster under the dark red sky. The snake's mouth opened wider and wider, and saliva dripped from the tips of the fangs onto the gravel, making a sizzling corrosive sound. It bit down on the girl's neck.
It doesn't want to play anymore, and is going to eat this girl directly, and then concentrate on dealing with Qin Tiexin.
"Hey~"
Qin Tiexin sighed. After all, he couldn't bear to watch a living person being bitten to death by Demon Beast in front of him.
The monks he met before wanted to divert trouble or snatch his trophies, but were directly hacked to death or thrown into the depths of the woods by Qin Tiexin. He thought he had a clear conscience. But after all, the girl in front of him had no grudges against him. If he hated the girl so much and watched the girl die in front of him, Qin Tiexin asked himself that he couldn't do it. This was not in line with his philosophy.
Besides, you can also get information about Xiao Yan from her. They may have already entered Pure Land Chan Temple.
After thinking about all this, Qin Tiexin no longer hesitated.
Mountain-Shaking Steps plus Burst Step!
The whole person shot out from behind the remaining wall, and the gravel under his feet was kicked up by him so much that it exploded backwards. The figure in black armor passed through a straight line in the stone forest. Edgeless turned half a circle in his left hand, and the blade was wrapped with a very faint Qi Gang light, and slashed diagonally down towards the seven-inch position of the python.
Although this sword did not use any of Heavy Mountain Saber Technique's moves, it was just the simplest diagonal slash, but the power he wielded was enough to split a huge boulder in half.
Something unexpected happened to him. The blade did indeed cut into the python seven inches as originally planned, but the feeling of the blade cutting down did not have the smooth feeling of cutting into the flesh or the sluggish feeling of being blocked by the scales, but it felt like it was cutting in the air.
The body of the python became transparent the moment the blade touched its scales, and the blade silently passed through the shadow of the snake's body without cutting anything, leaving only a silver-white afterimage that slowly dissipated in place.
The next moment, the real python appeared three steps away.
It was entrenched on a fallen stone pillar, its triangular head was slightly tilted, and a glimmer of interest flashed in its vertical pupils. This human being was much more interesting than the weak prey just now.
Qin Tiexin holds his body steady, Edgeless lies horizontally in front of him.
At that moment, the feeling of the blade passing through the opponent's body was extremely strange. The moment the knife struck, the snake seemed not to exist at this position at all. Qin Tiexin felt as if he had swung a knife into the air.
The white python didn't give him any more time to think.
It was the first to attack, and the snake's body ejected from the stone pillar, turning into a silver-white stream of light in mid-air, so fast that it left a series of continuous afterimages in the air.
Qin Tiexin blocked sideways, and the snake's head hit Edgeless Saber. The blade trembled violently, making a dull metallic roar. The huge impact was transmitted from the blade to the arm, and from the arm to the back of the shoulder. Qin Tiexin was knocked back and took a step back. His feet plowed two shallow grooves on the gravel ground, and the gravel was crushed to pieces by the soles of his shoes.
The force of this collision was at least 50,000 kilograms.
Before he could stand firm, the python's second blow had arrived. The snake's tail swept across from the right, with a sharp breaking sound.
Qin Tiexin moved Edgeless one square to the right, and the blade accurately blocked the tail that was swinging towards him.
But at the moment when the blade of the blade came into contact with the snake's tail, the snake's tail Intangibility passed through the blade and solidified instantly, hitting his right rib hard. The Qi Gang on Qin Tiexin's right rib vibrated violently, dented for a moment, and then bounced up again.
Although it was not penetrated, the impact force was still transmitted to the ribs through Qi Gang, causing a dull pain.
He used his strength to slide two steps to the left and distance himself from the white python.
After several consecutive confrontations, Qin Tiexin could only passively block. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight back, but every time he attacked with a knife, the python's body would always Intangibility before the blade touched it.
It was not a quick dodge, but it was like disappearing from space and reappearing in an instant. This beast was extremely cunning, and Intangibility had perfect timing: it was still there when the attack was made, and disappeared when the blade was about to pass. After the blade passed by, it solidified again, and took the opportunity to counterattack.
No matter how fast Qin Tiexin's knife is, it can't be faster than the speed of Intangibility.
