Being grabbed by this soft monster, Gu Xiantang was more nervous than anyone thought. Even he himself didn't know why he was so scared suddenly. It was obvious that the energy aura spreading out of this monster was not strong, at least not strong. To the point where he can be scared, but... he has an instinctive fear of this monster.

"what are you doing?!"

Gu Xiantang seemed to be stimulated, and his shouting voice became sharp. This embarrassing performance only made him feel extremely ashamed, especially in front of the childhood sweetheart Zhao Zhier...

"You...you are..."

The monster squatted with a thin, tall and shriveled body, like a dying tree, and its old face, which was bumpy and bark-like, showed a sullen smile.

Although there is no eyeball tissue in its sunken eye sockets, Gu Xiantang can feel...this monster is staring at him.

"What are we?! Let me loose!!"

Gu Xiantang yelled and drew out the saber he was carrying with him. Since the distance between the two sides was too close, it was impossible for him to use the tip of the sword to stab the monster, so he could only flip his wrist and slash it with a sword diagonally. On the monster's arm.

He had full confidence in the magic sword in his hand. Although it was not comparable to the rust sword passed down from generation to generation in the Li family, it was not much worse in terms of its sharpness.

Especially under the blessing of the energy in Gu Xiantang's body, this magic sword is even more invincible, but when it touches this monster, the feedback from the blade makes Gu Xiantang a little unacceptable.

The monster’s shriveled arms look weak and windy, like dry branches without moisture, as if they would shatter with a light touch, but in fact... the body of this monster is harder than most metals. !

The indestructible sword in Gu Xiantang's hand had just been chopped up, and a conspicuous gap was broken almost instantly.

Gu Xiantang must feel uncomfortable. After all, this magic sword has been with Gu Xiantang for more than ten years. It is no exaggeration to say that it is his most beloved treasure...

"You!! I killed you!!"

"Be careful!!"

As soon as Zhao Zhier’s reminder voice fell, Gu Xiantang found that he had suddenly fallen into a sticky and soft substance... He lowered his head and saw that the monster’s soft lower limbs had been wrapped around him. As if he was about to absorb himself completely, he kept pulling into the body.

To be honest, Gu Xiantang felt a little nauseous.

This feeling is like being continuously absorbed by a giant slug. The soft substance that emits a strange fragrance is disgusting no matter what, and it is not only nausea.

While being restrained by this monster, Gu Xiantang also found that the energy in his body was rapidly losing...It seems that this energy was sucked away by something, and his limbs would not listen to his commands, no matter what he thought. Breaking free is just in vain.

"let me help you!"

Zhao Zhier pulled out the magic sword she carried with her. Unlike Gu Xiantang, she did not directly attack the monster. Instead, she used her hand to squeeze the energy in her body into her fingertips, and then pointed her fingertips towards her. A touch of the sword...

In an instant, some colorful materials appeared on the blade, suspended in the air about half a centimeter from the blade like dust.

It was not until this moment that Zhao Zhier was "willing" to make a move.

She clenched the hilt of the sword and raised her hand to stab, and the body of the seemingly indestructible monster was penetrated by the sword in an instant.

"It has weaknesses."

An expression of excitement flashed in Zhao Zhi'er's eyes, and he cut the monster's arm into two with a light pick, but even so, the half of the palm left on Gu Xiantang's body still held his arm firmly.

"Why... why do you have... matter... divine nature... matter..."

The monster did not attack Zhao Zhi'er. Not only did it fail to counterattack, it did not even appear to dodge. It stared at Zhao Zhi'er from beginning to end, as if it found something in this human that it could not believe it. s things.

For example, those colorful energies.

What it calls the "divine matter".

"You get out of the way! I can deal with it!"

At this moment, Gu Xiantang roared without warning, as if he felt a little embarrassed in front of Zhao Zhier, and was so embarrassed by this monster in just a moment...Gu Xiantang was just angry at this moment. Only feel a strong sense of humiliation.

Of course, Zhao Zhi'er has long been accustomed to his neurotic performance. She has always felt that Gu Xiantang is not a normal person. Perhaps because of Gu Shanzhu’s pampering, he has never been wronged since childhood, and his self-esteem is better than anyone else. Must be strong...

"I'll save you first." Zhao Zhier said with a frown, and didn't step aside as he said to take care of Xiantang. "After that, you can do whatever you want with it."

"You don't need to save it! I can!"

Gu Xiantang's teeth were about to be crushed. Hearing Zhao Zhi'er said to save himself, the humiliation he felt instantly increased several times...

At this time Gu Xiantang had already noticed the monster's change.

When the monster used its soft lower limbs to restrain him, perhaps because it was chopped by Xu Yanan, the weird restraint power had weakened a lot, at least Gu Xiantang's limbs had begun to gradually recover.

This time Gu Xiantang didn't use the sword again.

He directly held another weapon pinned to his waist with his hand.

That's right, it's the thing that Chen Xian and the others were curious about before.

Because the outer layer of this weapon was tightly wrapped in linen, Chen Xian and the others did not see what was under this layer of linen...

This is a scepter.

From the appearance point of view, this scepter should be made of gold, and the whole is in a strange spiral shape. There are many unclear embossed totems on the outer layer, most of which are distorted to make people unable to recognize the pattern. The top of the stick is inlaid with a creamy white gem the size of an adult's fist.

The gem seems to be "living", and there are many bloodshot-like things on its outer layer. These scarlet filaments cover the surface of the gem like a spider web, dividing the complete gem into individual pieces. Regular small grid.

There is a black spot the size of a soybean in each small grid.

They were turning non-stop, like countless eyes. When they lost the cover of the linen cloth, they immediately looked at Gu Xiantang who was holding the scepter. Then they turned their eyes and looked closer together. The monster at hand.

"The key... is with you... so it is with you..."

The monster seemed to recognize this scepter, and his voice became trembling, but the tone of voice was strange to people, like... I was surprised, why would anyone dare to take this thing? ?

In the next second, the monster abruptly pulled Gu Xiantang away from his body without warning, and then moved a few meters away at an extremely fast speed, as if deliberately keeping a distance from Gu Xiantang.

"It was God's arrangement...it must be..."

The monster murmured softly. It looked at Gu Xiantang, then looked back into the tunnel, as if it was looking for Chen Xian and the others.

"Dare to attack me..."

Gu Xiantang's eyes were full of undisguised killing intent. After breaking away from the **** of this monster, the anger in his heart did not go out, but intensified, and he wished to kill this monster to vent his anger.

The monster does not care whether Gu Xiantang is angry or not, nor does it care what Gu Xiantang wants to do to him next. It is just a disciple who guards the ancient land. Everything it does here is just a task assigned by the gods.

At this moment, the monster spoke again, and compared to before, its language ability seemed to have recovered a bit, at least not stuttering so much anymore.

"You will regret this......"

The monster briefly said such a sentence, and then took a deep look at Gu Xiantang.

"The low-level being...can't bear the weight of everything...it won't be the key in your hands...just an unknown holy thing..."

Hearing these words coming out of the monster's mouth, Gu Xiantang frowned immediately, as if he felt that the monster was alarmist.

"An unknown holy thing?" Gu Xiantang sneered, "Do you think I can't hold it down?"

"madness."

The monster laughed strangely, as if laughing at Gu Xiantang's uncontrollable ability.

"You will regret this."
