Chapter 91: Escape
Hmm?
Duan Qing suddenly looked to the side and front, with a vigilant expression on his face, and then he quickly lowered his body to hide in the grass.
As soon as he squatted down, he saw a sudden movement in the grass in front of him, and then a creature that looked a bit like a deer suddenly jumped out.
It looked like a deer but not completely. Its appearance was roughly the same as that of an ordinary deer. The only difference was that its head was much smaller and it had a pair of glowing tentacles on its head.
The strange deer looked very panicked. Without stopping at all, it quickly disappeared from Duan Qing's sight.
After the strange deer disappeared, there was another noise from the direction it ran from.
The sound came from far away, accompanied by a slight vibration of the ground. One after another, strange-looking creatures rushed past him not far away, and in an instant, they trampled the half-human-high grass into pieces.
These creatures have more or less similar appearances to those of the outside world, but the biggest difference is that each creature has two glowing tentacles on its head.
Could this be the monster on the second floor?
Duan Qing couldn't help but guess in his heart, and at the same time, the fleeing of these monsters made him feel a little uneasy.
The monsters kept running past him not far away, and Duan Qing felt very strange, so he stood up and looked behind the monster group.
At a glance, all kinds of monsters were desperately fleeing, as if there were some terrifying creatures behind them, and they didn't care about him, an alien not far away!
At this time, Duan Qing suddenly saw several special figures behind the monster group.
They were actually several cultivators!
Duan Qing looked at them and saw a total of six figures in the monster group.
The most conspicuous among them were two Luofeng Valley disciples wearing white robes. Among the remaining four people, the two women were disciples of the Biyun Sect he had seen on the first floor.
The last man and woman were his fellow disciples of the Jinxuan Sect. The woman was Song Ling'er from the Jingshui Peak, and the man was Bai Shaoyun who had abandoned his fellow disciples and fled before!
The six people fled with the monster group and soon came to him.
Obviously, the six people also saw Duan Qing, but they didn't care about him at all.
At this moment, Bai Shaoyun, one of the six people, suddenly left the monster group and ran towards Duan Qing. After that, Song Linger seemed to hesitate for a moment and also left the monster group.
Bai Shaoyun quickly arrived in front of Duan Qing, but he didn't stop for a moment. He just left a disdainful look and passed by him.
Then Song Linger also came close to Duan Qing, and didn't even have time to stop for a moment. He just slowed down in front of Duan Qing and reminded Duan Qing anxiously.
"Junior brother Duan, hurry up!"
Then he chased Bai Shaoyun with all his strength.
Duan Qing was infected by Song Linger's expression, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He subconsciously looked behind the monster group, wanting to see what made everyone and the monster group so panicked.
When he saw this, he felt a little scalp tingling and his back cold!
Behind the group of monsters, there were about a dozen colorful spider-like giant eight-legged monsters, devouring the monsters at the tail of the group like a torrent.
Any monster touched by the eight-legged monster would be entangled into cocoons by the colorful silk it spewed out almost instantly, unable to move.
After the eight-legged monster entangled a monster, it left the cocoon in place and chased the monster in front. Just as Duan Qing watched, seven or eight monsters were caught up by the eight-legged monster and entangled into cocoons.
The eight-legged monsters were extremely fast. Even though some eight-legged monsters would stop for a while after catching monsters and spit silk to entangle them, the monsters were still bitten by the tails of the dozen eight-legged monsters behind them and couldn't get rid of them!
At this time, suddenly an eight-legged monster gave up chasing the monster group and attacked Duan Qing, so fast that Duan Qing was terrified.
Duan Qing's face turned pale, and he blessed himself with the light body technique at the fastest speed ever, and then ran after Song Linger.
He finally understood why everyone and the monsters were running away so desperately. This eight-legged monster was obviously not a good guy!
Its body size was about the same as his wooden house in Yanfeng. A dozen of them could kill so many monsters. Maybe it was the monster in the Transcendent Realm that Uncle Qingchen mentioned!
The figures of Bai Shaoyun and Song Ling'er in front were only vaguely visible. At this time, Duan Qing hated Bai Shaoyun very much. In the situation just now, it was obvious that he was using the same old trick again, just like he did to the unknown senior brother, trying to divert the trouble and get away himself!
The eight-legged monster was very fast and chased Duan Qing relentlessly. Even with the blessing of the light body technique, the distance between the two was gradually shortened.
And Duan Qing, at full speed, was also rapidly approaching Song Ling'er in front.
Looking at the petite figure of Song Ling'er in front, Duan Qing sighed secretly, suddenly changed direction, and swept to one side, leading the eight-legged monster away from Song Ling'er.
Although Duan Qing hated Bai Shaoyun's actions and wanted to let the eight-legged monster eat him alive, if he continued to catch up with the two, Song Ling'er would be the first to suffer!
Not to mention that Song Ling'er had just reminded him to leave quickly, just because she was Su's junior sister, he couldn't do such a bad thing.
Moreover, Duan Qing felt that the second senior brother seemed to have a good impression of Song Ling'er, so he couldn't harm Song Ling'er.
In addition, he didn't want the two to know his true cultivation.
Because if he continued to catch up with the two, his speed far exceeding the fourth level of Qi training would arouse their suspicion.
However, looking at the eight-legged monster behind him like a maggot, Duan Qing was still a little anxious.
The distance between the two has been reduced from dozens of feet at the beginning to only twenty or thirty feet now. He can almost hear the roar from the eight-legged monster's ferocious mouth!
But for a moment, he couldn't think of a way to get rid of it, and could only watch the eight-legged monster getting closer and closer to him.
At this time, a steep slope suddenly appeared in front of Duan Qing, and he quickly made a decision in his heart that he couldn't delay any longer!
He looked back at the eight-legged monster about ten feet behind him, and used all his strength to temporarily increase his speed.
He secretly took out the black ancient dagger, and when he was close to the top of the slope, he took a big step and barely crossed the top of the slope, then used the control technique to press his body down.
The help of the control technique, plus Duan Qing's deliberate early jump, made him land higher on the other side of the top of the slope.
The moment he touched the ground, Duan Qing held the black ancient dagger in one hand, inserted the dagger into the ground horizontally to slow down, and then quickly lowered his body.
Even so, the black ancient dagger still cut a distance in the soil, allowing him to stop about ten feet below the top of the slope.
After stopping, Duan Qing decisively pulled out the black ancient dagger, adjusted his body shape, and stared at the top of the slope nervously.
According to his observation, although the eight-legged monster was extremely fast, each of its legs was made up of branches and had poor flexibility. When it encountered small pits and slopes before, the eight-legged monster jumped over them.
So after knowing that he could not outrun the eight-legged monster, he decided to take the initiative to attack and trick it.
