Chapter 87: The First Fight with Dou Huang
After handing over the skills and Qi Gathering Powder to Xiao Yu, Xiao Se stayed with Xiao Yu for another two days.
Xiao Yu spent a day adjusting his physical condition to its peak. With the help of Xiao Se, he successfully broke through to the fighter level the next day and switched to practicing martial arts.
Perhaps it was because Xiao Se easily defeated Xiao Ning as soon as he came back this time, all of a sudden, he went from being unknown to being known to everyone in the Xiao family. In addition, due to Xiao Se's handsome appearance, many girls in the Xiao family, led by Xiao Mei, often flirted with him.
But all this has nothing to do with Xiao Se.
On the third day, Xiao Se left some elixirs needed for Xiao Yu's cultivation and agreed to meet again at Canaan College. Then, he left the Xiao family with Xiao Yu's reluctant gaze.
"Damned human, how dare you treat me like this." Walking on the path leading to the Miter auction house, the voice of Queen Medusa suddenly sounded in Xiao Se's ears.
As the voice fell, two small teeth marks appeared on Xiao Se's waist again.
"I say, Queen, do you have to bite me every other day?" Xiao Se rolled his eyes. He had become accustomed to Queen Medusa controlling the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python to bite him.
"Ask yourself what you have done?" Medusa said angrily.
"Uh..." A trace of embarrassment emerged on Xiao Se's face. He stayed with Xiao Yu for three days, so it was naturally impossible for him to do anything. While practicing, he remembered the Purple Fire Pill refined by Xiao Yan in the original novel. He simply learned and used it immediately. He took out a small half cup of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python's saliva and then combined it with the accompanying purple crystal source and some fire-attributed medicinal materials to refine the Purple Fire Pill.
Who told him that he had too few tricks that could help him defeat enemies of higher levels?
The only thing he could show off was the "Red Flame Sword. Breaking the Limit", which was upgraded to a level comparable to the mid-level Earth Grade through the use of strange fire. It was too shabby. How could he not study such an awesome move as the Buddha's Fury Lotus?
[Ding, the system reminds us that the host has not used the number of redemptions for this month. The number of redemptions will be refreshed in ten days. Please use it in time.]
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Xiao Se was slightly stunned, and then he recalled that he seemed to have been in a state of unconsciousness for a long time after swallowing the strange fire, and more than a month had passed unknowingly.
"System, exchange this fire-attributed herb in my hand for it." Xiao Se casually took out a fire-attributed herb left over from refining the Purple Fire Pill from the storage ring and shouted in his mind.
This is a pattern he has found over the past year. Although exchanging items of the same type can increase the chance of exchange, the chance is pitifully small. The more casually prepared the items are, the greater the probability of getting something good.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for exchanging for a dragon blood grass from the dragon cave ruins in the ancient wild land of the "Sword Dao Supremacy" world. ]
"Dragon Blood Grass?" Xiao Se was delighted. This was a good thing. As a loyal fan of the novel "Swordsmanship" on Blue Star in his previous life, Xiao Se had read Swordsmanship several times. This dragon's blood grass grew in the place where the giant dragon fell. It was transformed from the blood of the giant dragon. It contained a trace of dragon power. If it was refined, it could be transformed into its strength. It can make a person a master of body refining in a short period and greatly enhance the ability of close combat. In the original novel, the protagonist Ye Chen only refined three or four plants to increase his strength by hundreds of thousands of pounds. Although it was inseparable from his cultivation in the Spiritual Sea Realm, this is enough to show that the effect of dragon blood grass is powerful. (ps: the Life and Death Realm shuttles through the void, the Spiritual Sea Realm is the previous realm of the Life and Death Realm. It is only for reference, not to provoke a fight.)
After getting a dragon blood grass, Xiao Se's mood suddenly improved, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace. Now his strength could be greatly improved.
After walking for a while, Xiao Se gradually realized that something was wrong. It was not too far from the Xiao family to the Mittel Auction House. He could reach the place by just going around a few alleys, turning into the main road, and walking to the end of the main road. But now, he had already walked around this alley several times, and there seemed to be no sign of getting out.
"Long Kui, Queen, do you feel that something seems to be wrong?" Xiao Se shouted to the two of them in his heart.
"So you just discovered it, but the other party doesn't seem to have any killing intention. It's just a small matter that you have to solve by yourself." Queen Medusa's embarrassed voice slowly sounded in her heart, and then she fell silent.
"Brother, do you want me to..." Xiao Se interrupted Long Kui before she finished her voice transmission. "No, I think I have guessed who it is. Don't expose yourself. If I can't defeat him, old man Hai Bodong will come. At worst, there is the queen. If I die, no one will help her get the Rong Lingdan."
As the few people were communicating in their hearts, black fog quietly spread out around the alley, covering the surroundings, and in a moment, it enveloped the entire alley.
At this moment, it seemed as if everything around had paused. The ribbons floating on the buildings stopped moving, the birds also stopped in mid-air, and the entire space was dyed with a layer of grayish white.
With his perspective eyes and soul perception activated at the same time, Xiao Se quickly found the owner of the black fog on the roof behind him. He took out the magic sword with his right hand, swung it lightly, and said coldly: "Come out, sneaky guy."
As he spoke, Xiao Se's left hand quietly reached for his waist and pinched three tiny poisoned steel needles between his fingers.
While moving forward quickly with the magic sword tightly grasped in his right hand, three poisonous steel needles were quietly thrown out from his left hand, which turned into three arcs and attacked the black shadow behind from different directions.
The black shadow did not expect Xiao Se could easily find his position. He was unable to dodge and had to draw the black scimitar at his waist to block.
Ding, ding, ding.
Three consecutive crisp collision sounds were heard, and all the steel needles were bounced away. The black shadow knew that he had been discovered, so he simply walked out of the black fog, stretched his body, and said indifferently: "Boy, your perception is not bad. You can find my hiding place."
Looking at the black shadow that finally appeared, Xiao Se's face showed a solemn expression. Ling Ying couldn't help but attack him after all. Although it was just a test, a high-level Dou Huang was enough to give him a hard time.
"Who are you?" Xiao Se narrowed his eyes and asked knowingly.
"I've been entrusted with the task of taking your life." As he spoke, Ling Ying's figure turned into a ghostly black mist and disappeared from Xiao Se's sight.
Xiao Se was horrified as he found that his soul power was simply unable to capture the opponent's whereabouts. Fortunately, he could see it through his eyes of perspective. He then tightly grasped the magic sword with both hands. The sword body carried a powerful sword energy that could break through the air, and he took a step forward and chopped towards the corner where the black fog was thinner.
"clang"
The magic sword and the black shadow scimitar collided, bringing up a powerful gust of wind that broke through the air, blowing away the black fog that obscured Ling Ying's figure, revealing Ling Ying in a black robe and a mask.
