Chapter 57 Ugh... Pshaw!
The meal was finished quickly, and it was time to leave.
At this moment, Li Jia came running in, panting, dragging a large backpack, and stuffed the backpack into Ling Yunxiao's hands.
"Since you're crossing the border, you're most likely heading deep into the mist. I've heard that resources are scarce there, and even the water is poisonous. I know you must have made thorough preparations, but you certainly didn't buy any local delicacies."
These are all local specialties, filling and delicious, and it's a small token of my appreciation.
Li Jia smiled憨厚ly as he awkwardly explained.
Ling Yunxiao understood that he just wanted to do something for those of them who were traveling. In that instant, he understood why Shen Qingzhu was willing to go to such lengths for the three brothers.
Ling Yunxiao accepted the package of food and handed it to Si Xiaonan. Si Xiaonan waved her hand and put the food into her ring, then looked up and gave Li Jia a sweet smile.
The group set off, following Wang Zhiwei to the edge of a misty area.
Here stands a town boundary marker, which resembles a giant statue facing the mist, blocking the mist in front of it and protecting the people behind it.
Goodbye, Great Xia!
As the king's calm voice rang out, the group walked into the mist.
Just as Wang Mian was about to take out the pixel particles, he realized that the path beneath his feet seemed to be a mountain path, meaning he probably wouldn't need a boat. He casually took out a climbing rope from his ring, intending to have everyone tie it to their wrists to prevent them from getting separated if they went any further.
Just as Ling Yunxiao was about to summon the Judge's Pen to clear the way, the Zhong Kui Demon-Slaying Sword, which had been hovering on his shoulder, flew in front of everyone, now restored to the normal size of the Qingfeng Sword.
The dense fog that had enveloped the area, making it impossible to see anything, dissipated considerably in an instant, revealing everything within a ten-meter radius. This meant there was no need to worry about sudden changes in the path beneath their feet, or about them getting separated.
Wang smiled as he put away the climbing rope. Ling Yunxiao, his assistant, was as reliable as ever!
The fog was so thick that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and there was no distinction between day and night. Moreover, with their level of cultivation, they could see the way ahead even on a dark and windy night.
"We've been walking for four hours, let's open the tent and rest for a bit!"
As Wang Mian spoke, he took out a huge yurt and wool felt from his ring. Han Shaoyun and Leng Xuan immediately went over, opened the yurt, and took out the prepared steel bars to fix it in place.
While Ling Yunxiao and Wang Mian were laying out the wool felt, Si Xiaonan had already taken out the charcoal fire and small pot.
"Huhuhu..."
The newly erected yurt was blown about by a sudden gust of wind, and before Ling Yunxiao could get up and rush out, Wuyuan Sha had already blocked his way.
"Brother Ling, slow down."
Si Xiaonan smiled mischievously. At this moment, Wang Mian and Wu Tongxuan had already rushed out first.
Ling Yunxiao resigned himself to his fate and waited until everyone had left the yurt before slowly walking out himself. He then saw a massive, blood-red bird circling in mid-air, its head bearing a hideous human face.
As Wang Mian unleashed a barrage of sword energy, Si Xiaonan snapped her fingers in the air. The giant bird, which had previously been able to easily dodge the sword energy, hesitated for a moment. In an instant, all of Yi Yuan's blade energy struck the giant bird.
"Jie..."
The giant bird let out a roar, its aura suddenly changed, and the wounds on its body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Is the Klein Realm strange? We encountered something like this right after emerging from the mist. We don't know if it's good luck or bad luck."
"Of course, it's just good luck; a Klein realm item is worth 10,000 points!"
Ling Yunxiao grinned, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was once again shielded behind Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan. It seemed they had no intention of giving him a chance to make a move.
"The Klein Realm?"
Just as Wu Xuantong was about to step forward to try and turn the monster into a believer, a sudden gust of wind arose around them, with snowflakes falling in the wind. The giant bird in the air swayed slightly, and Wang Mian took advantage of the situation to soar into the air, unleashing several more sword strikes.
Si Xiaonan simultaneously raised her hand and gently waved it, causing the giant bird's eyes to dazed for a moment again. Wang Mian instantly closed in on the giant bird, sheathed his sword, and severed one of its wings.
The giant bird let out a mournful cry and fell. The two people in front of Ling Yunxiao simultaneously stepped aside to make way for him. With a flick of his wrist, he imbued the Star Blade with the Hellfire of the Killing Technique.
The next second, before the giant bird could even turn over, Ling Yunxiao and Wang Mian had already closed in simultaneously. Wang Mian swung his blade again, severing the giant bird's other wing, while Ling Yunxiao's Star Blade also came crashing down.
The giant bird, its wings severed, was initially screeching and roaring, but as Ling Yunxiao's blade fell, it was immediately repelled by its strong feathers. It ceased its roaring and instead spat a mouthful of blood at Ling Yunxiao.
The scene unfolded roughly like this: everyone stood ready, and Ling Yunxiao, wielding his blazing Star Blade, brought it down. The giant bird was unharmed, and casually raised its head to face Ling Yunxiao.
“Ah…Pah!”
Ling Yunxiao: [○?｀Д′? ○]!
The hellfire on the Star Blade roared up instantly, almost engulfing Ling Yunxiao entirely. He glared angrily at the giant bird, and the scorching, crimson hellfire on his body, like magma, surged out towards the bird, resembling a fire dragon, instantly consuming it completely.
This time, the giant bird didn't even have time to roar before it was burned to ashes in the flames, leaving only two drops of blue blood floating in mid-air.
"Han Shaoyun, you're the weakest. These two drops of blood are wind-attribute, so you should eat them!"
Ling Yunxiao had regained his senses by now. He casually tossed two drops of blood essence to Han Shaoyun, and when he turned around, he saw the sharp eyes of the group.
"That move you just made was really cool, so how much energy did it use?"
"tell me the story……"
Wang Mian and Wu Tongxuan spoke up one after the other, while Si Xiaonan and Leng Xuan moved behind Ling Yunxiao, blocking his retreat. Han Shaoyun was also rubbing his hands together, sneering at Ling Yunxiao. Was he the weakest? He wondered who in the team had just entered the Sea Realm and whose mental strength was still unstable.
Ling Yunxiao glanced at the Book of Life and Death with a fleeting look. Brilliant! After killing the strange being in the Klein realm, his own power of reincarnation not only didn't increase, but actually decreased by 10,000.
Seeing Ling Yunxiao's guilty look, the others knew that the expenditure just now was definitely not worth it.
"..."
Before Ling Yunxiao could explain, he was blown into the air by Han Shaoyun, and then Si Xiaonan's Wuyuan Sha suspended him in mid-air.
"Brother Ling, you need to sign a written agreement that you won't act impulsively and waste energy in the future in situations like this."
"No, are you in cahoots with this bird? Can't you see it provoked me first? How can I tolerate this?"
Ling Yunxiao glanced at everyone and saw that their faces were full of dissatisfaction and worry, and he immediately backed down.
