Chapter 582: The Little Abacus of Picking Stars
Knowing what the consequences would be if he was injured by the barbarians, Duan Qing acted very cautiously, focusing on self-protection. He danced the Red Spirit Sword in his hand tightly, dissolving all the attacks of the barbarians.
He could even kill one or two barbarians occasionally.
As for the barbarians hit by his Red Spirit Sword, none of them could recover because the sword was attached with the power of the Vermillion Bird's transformation into flames.
To be honest, relying on his superb skills and the protection of the Vermillion Bird Armor, it was safe to fight like this, but the speed of killing the barbarians was really slow.
However, there was no way. The strength of these barbarians was amazing. If he was not careful and his Vermillion Bird Armor was broken by them, it would be all over.
He would rather die than become the thing in front of him that was neither human nor ghost!
Among the fire magic he mastered, only the Fire Separation Magic had a relatively large attack range.
However, the Fire Separation Magic had limited damage to the barbarians, and the effect of burning souls was also useless to the barbarians. He tried this with the Fire Separation Magic right at the beginning.
If only Senior Sister Xue hadn't fainted.
Senior Sister Xue also practiced the Vermillion Bird Transformation, and mastered far more fire-related magics than he did.
Some time ago, he heard her bragging that it was her secret technique of burning the sky that turned the Ten Thousand Changes of Dust into a crystal wall in the Yongling Valley of the Xiaonan Realm.
Compared with the cautious Duan Qing, Zhaixing, who was not far away, was much more unrestrained.
At this time, the four spears in A-di's hands were gone, but turned into four flaming long swords.
As for the remaining two hands, the Desolate Sky Mirror and the Giant Spirit Sword, they remained unchanged, and the Desolate Sky Mirror also cast a dim divine light towards Zhaixing on A-di's shoulder, protecting Zhaixing's entire body.
Under Zhaixing's control, A-di, who had three heads and six arms, fought vigorously, and the four flaming swords in his hands only swept across the barbarians, completely ignoring their attacks.
A-di's body was originally transformed by the barbaric energy, so he was naturally not afraid of being injured by the barbarians or attacked by the barbaric energy.
With the protection of the Wilderness Mirror, Zhaixing did not have to worry about being attacked by the Wilderness people.
During the battle with dozens of Wilderness people, Zhaixing even had the energy to observe Duan Qing's movements.
Could this Shinto sect kid have seen the Wilderness people before?
Duan Qing's cautious and risk-free fighting style really made Zhaixing speechless, and felt that he had acted in vain!
He pulled Duan Qing to join forces to fight the enemy, of course, with the purpose of letting Duan Qing help him contain some of the Wilderness people, but at the same time, he also wanted to trick Duan Qing.
How could he let go of his hatred for Duan Qing so easily?
He deliberately attacked first and fought so wildly, letting A Di ignore the Wilderness people's attacks, just to show Duan Qing, giving Duan Qing the illusion that the Wilderness people's attacks were not so scary, so that Duan Qing would underestimate the enemy.
To be honest, although Duan Qing was the only one who could restrain the Wilderness people besides him, he wished that Duan Qing would be injured by the Wilderness people.
If he underestimated the enemy and was injured by the barbarians, he would save the trouble of doing it himself.
If no one helped him to expel the barbaric energy from his body, he would soon become a barbarian who only knew how to kill.
At this time, in this wasteland, the only one who could expel the barbaric energy was Zhaixing.
However, Duan Qing was like a turtle, preferring to kill slowly rather than be injured by the barbarians, as if he knew the consequences of being injured by the barbarians.
How hateful!
Zhaixing was secretly resentful, and vented all his hatred for Duan Qing on the barbarians around him. As the four flaming swords were swung, the barbarians kept falling down.
Soon, Zhaixing solved all the dozens of barbarians who besieged him.
Duan Qing, who was standing aside, only killed a dozen barbarians, less than 30% of the total.
Seeing this, Zhaixing had no intention of stepping forward to help, but controlled his brother to walk to the side of Zuo Muxiu and others, and watched the show leisurely.
"You are the disciple of the Taihuang Sect's leader after all. It's too mean to act like this!" Zuo Muxiu couldn't stand what Zhaixing did and said sarcastically.
When he was chasing Zhaixing before, he sent a message to Duan Qing and asked about Zhaixing's background.
"What I do is none of your business!" Zhaixing said indifferently.
Face is worthless in his eyes.
After saying that, he glanced at Huang Shi next to Zuo Muxiu meaningfully.
Zhaixing's words and eyes made Zuo Muxiu angry. Just when he was about to scold him, he suddenly froze on the spot and swallowed back what he was about to say.
...
It took about a cup of tea for Duan Qing to deal with all the dozens of barbarians who besieged him.
Looking around at the debris of the barbarians on the ground, Duan Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Just in case, he took some effort to gather all the scattered debris of the barbarians around and burned them all with the fire technique.
Although the Fire Separation Technique has little effect on the living barbarians, it is more than enough to burn the remains.
In fact, Duan Qing was also quite puzzled. Back then, in the wasteland of Xiaonanjie, he had used the Fire Separation Technique to deal with the wild beasts there.
At that time, the Fire Separation Technique was very effective against the wild beasts, but why did he use the Fire Separation Technique to deal with these barbarians just now, but it had little effect?
Is it possible that there is a difference between the barbarians and the wild beasts?
Or is it that these barbarians are of a higher level and his Fire Separation Technique is not powerful enough?
While thinking, Duan Qing walked towards Zuo Muxiu and others.
When he came closer, Duan Qing's eyes fell on Zhaixing.
"With your understanding of the wasteland, is there a way to get out?" Duan Qing said straight to the point.
This place is weird. Even if the barbarians are dealt with, no one knows what dangers there are, so he just wants to take Xue Wanyun away from the wasteland as soon as possible.
"Hehe, there is a way to leave." Zhaixing stared at Duan Qing with a smile.
"As long as we wait until it gets dark outside, the eight-legged beasts on the lake will leave, and we can then return to the ground through the tunnel we came from."
"But I don't know if you can hold on until then!" When he said this, Zhaixing glanced at Zuo Muxiu next to him.
Hearing this, Duan Qing secretly estimated.
It was just dawn when everyone chased Zhaixing to this wasteland. Later, they had a fierce battle with Zhaixing and escaped to the water-proof cover at the bottom of the lake. In fact, not much time had passed.
Now it's about a few hours before dark.
If nothing unexpected happens next, it shouldn't be a problem to hold on for a few hours.
As for whether what Zhaixing said was false, Duan Qing didn't doubt it.
Back in the wasteland of Xiaonanjie, he had observed the habits of the eight-legged beast. It was indeed as Zhaixing said. Once it got dark, the eight-legged beast would return to its nest.
When the others heard Zhaixing's words, they were also slightly relieved.
Only Zuo Muxiu had a gloomy expression.
Duan Qing thought Zuo Muxiu was worried about Zuo Wanqiu, and didn't think much about it. He asked Zuo Muxiu and Li Nian to remove the shield and went forward to check on Xue Wanyun's condition.
"Senior Sister Xue!" Duan Qing pushed Xue Wanyun's shoulder and called softly.
Seeing that Xue Wanyun didn't respond, Duan Qing frowned slightly.
"This young master has a wake-up pill that can wake the lady up!" At this time, Zhaixing on the side suddenly said attentively.
