Chapter 587: Mutual Protection
Duan Qing had just escaped a few dozen feet when he saw Xue Wanyun and others rushing towards him. No one was absent, even the unconscious Zuo Wanqiu was brought by Zuo Muxiu.
"Go!" Duan Qing looked anxious and shouted at Xue Wanyun and others.
Seeing the hundreds of source beasts behind Duan Qing, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then turned around and fled without saying a word.
Everyone just heard a sound coming from the center of the water shield, and they came to help out of worry.
As a result, not long after they set off, they felt that they had lost contact with the sea of qi and could not mobilize any spiritual power.
This change made everyone panic, but under Xue Wanyun's insistence, everyone still bit the bullet and continued to rush to the center of the water shield.
Now seeing the hundreds of strange things behind Duan Qing with great momentum, plus the loss of spiritual power, everyone dared not go up to confront them.
However, there was an exception among them, who not only did not escape, but ran straight towards Duan Qing.
That was Xue Wanyun.
Seeing Xue Wanyun coming towards him, Duan Qing was even more anxious and shouted, "Senior sister, hurry up!"
Unexpectedly, Xue Wanyun still turned a deaf ear to him.
Seeing this, Duan Qing sighed inwardly, gritted his teeth, and simply stopped running. He turned around with his sword and went to meet the source beast behind him.
In fact, he knew very well that with the eight-legged dragon guarding the lake, no matter how he ran, he could only deal with it in this water-proof cover.
If he continued to escape, the water-proof cover was so small that without spiritual power, everyone would be blocked by the source beast incarnation sooner or later.
Rather than continuing to escape and implicate Xue Wanyun and others, it would be better for him to hold the source beast incarnation first and test the strength of this incarnation.
Even though he could not mobilize any spiritual power, Duan Qing's physical body was strong, and he still had some confidence in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Qing fought with the first source beast incarnation that caught up with him.
As he flipped his right hand, the Red Spirit Sword was danced by him to create a sword flower, cutting the tentacles of the source beast incarnation in front of him into countless pieces.
In the first battle, Duan Qing found that the source beast incarnation was not difficult to deal with, just the level of those barbarians before.
But at the moment he could not use spiritual power, and the tentacles cut off by the Red Spirit Sword soon returned to their original state.
While Duan Qing was fighting with the first source beast, other source beasts had also surrounded him and surrounded him and Xue Wanyun who had arrived.
Strangely, hundreds of source beast incarnations only surrounded the two of them, but did not attack them immediately.
Duan Qing leaned against Xue Wanyun, each holding a sword and staring at the source beast incarnations with caution.
"Senior sister, why are you so stupid!" Duan Qing said bitterly.
He specifically delayed the source beast because he didn't want Xue Wanyun to fall into danger, but he didn't expect it to be so stubborn.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Since this senior sister has brought you out of Qingfengjian, I have to be responsible for bringing you back safely!" Xue Wanyun said firmly.
Although he was imprisoned, at this moment, Duan Qing felt warm in his heart, and even the panic of being surrounded by the source beasts was much lessened.
"Senior sister, even if I sacrifice my life, I will definitely protect you!" At this moment, Duan Qing had endless courage in his heart.
Hearing Duan Qing's affectionate words, the hundreds of source beasts surrounding the two of them made a strange sound together, as if they were laughing at Duan Qing.
This incident made Duan Qing frown slightly.
This source beast seemed to be targeting him from the moment it appeared.
Could it be that this source beast was the one he had chased and killed in Xiaonan Realm?
This beast was holding a grudge against him for cutting off one of its tentacles, so it deliberately targeted him?
This idea made Duan Qing himself feel absurd.
There were tens of thousands of miles of Bottle Sea between Xiaonan Realm and the Middle Earth, and the Bottle Sea was thousands of miles away from Yunzhou.
How could the source beast run to such a faraway wasteland in Yunzhou?
Besides, the wastelands are not connected to each other.
Otherwise, according to what Zhaixing said, the dozen or so wastelands in Youzhou are all controlled by the source beast in Youzhou.
At this time, the surrounding source beast incarnations seemed to have laughed enough at Duan Qing, and they all waved their tentacles and attacked the two.
"Senior sister, be careful, don't get hurt by this beast." Duan Qing reminded, and took the lead in holding the sword to cut the dozens of tentacles that were overwhelming.
Xue Wanyun looked solemn, and also held the sword to meet the tentacles attacking her.
But compared with Duan Qing, the tentacles attacking her were obviously much fewer, only a few scattered ones.
As the flying swords in the hands of the two swung, all the tentacles attacking the two were cut off.
The cut tentacles immediately turned into a pool of mucus when they landed, and then automatically retracted into the source beast body and grew into tentacles again.
Duan Qing was no longer surprised by this. Back then, the source beast in Xiaonanjie, the cut tentacles could infinitely split into new source beasts.
This source beast must have this ability now, but it probably doesn't want to continue to divide and weaken its strength, so it maintains the scale of 100.
If it doesn't merge and become bigger, it will probably not be able to display it in this water-proof cover if it is bigger.
The source beast's original body before is a good example. Although its body is big, it can only shrink into a ball and can't display it at all.
Xue Wanyun has been influenced by Mu Yu, and his knowledge is quite extraordinary. But he was also shocked to see this unkillable source beast.
Although there are many source beasts besieging the two people, and they can recover infinitely, Duan Qing and Xue Wanyun's sword skills are not weak, especially Duan Qing, who dances with a red spirit sword tightly and resists the attacks of most of the source beast incarnations.
For a while, the two sides fell into a stalemate.
After failing to take down the two for a long time, the source beast seemed a little impatient, and the offensive became more and more fierce.
At this time, a source beast incarnation stood out from the many incarnations and rushed directly to Duan Qing without caring about his life.
Duan Qing subconsciously swung the Red Spirit Sword in his hand, trying to kill the source beast.
However, as soon as his Red Spirit Sword touched the source beast, the strange patterns on its body suddenly lit up.
This obviously abnormal scene made Duan Qing suddenly feel frightened.
If he dodges, Senior Sister Xue will not be able to escape!
Without any hesitation, Duan Qing immediately put away his sword and turned around to protect Xue Wanyun.
Almost as soon as Duan Qing hugged Xue Wanyun, the source beast behind him suddenly exploded, and a sticky liquid immediately flew everywhere, almost splashing Duan Qing's entire back.
One source beast incarnation exploded, and the other source beast incarnations not only did not pursue the victory, but stopped their actions.
"Junior brother!" Xue Wanyun exclaimed, broke away from Duan Qing, and checked Duan Qing's condition.
Duan Qing's forehead and neck were bulging with blue veins, as if he was enduring some kind of severe pain.
She looked at Duan Qing's back again, and the whole person couldn't help but be stunned.
Duan Qing's back was covered with mucus, soaking all his clothes. The exposed back of his neck was red and even emitting hot steam, as if it had been scalded by boiling oil!
If his neck was like this, then his entire back must be...!
Thinking of this, Xue Wanyun felt a sharp pain in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.
