C255 The sneaker in the dark (2/2)
Not even a foot away from him, thorns were pointing straight at his body. If he had really taken that step just now, then these weirdly shaped thorns with Array Pattern carved on them would have mercilessly pierced through his body, causing his blood to drain bit by bit.
”So sinister!” Qi Tianyu said. Under the light of the Golden Battle Sword, he could clearly see the origin of the voice. It was from a corpse hanging on those thorns whose blood was continuously dripping onto the ground.
That person probably didn't pay much attention in the dark and directly struck the spike, then died without any ability to resist.
”That's not right, just the sharp thorns are not enough to take a cultivator's life!” Qi Tianyu was startled awake at once. The Golden Battle Sword in his hand subconsciously swung behind him, clashing with the strong wind that was attacking his back.
Qi Tianyu immediately turned around, the Sword Qi on the Golden Battle Sword immediately erupted and slashed at the thing that was sneakily attacking, and the person that tried to ambush did not succeed in his attack and hid back in the darkness.
”Someone was here trying to kill the cultivators that accidentally landed here.” Qi Tianyu said to himself as he looked at the ground and the pile of bones that had been thoroughly dyed red with fresh blood under the sharp thorns.
Qi Tianyu was still standing at his original position. This was the home of the attacker, if he acted rashly, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
Qi Tianyu stood in his original position for a long time. In the darkness, the attacker seemed to retreat after failing to hit him, but Qi Tianyu definitely did not believe that the attacker would retreat.
After a long while, Qi Tianyu finally put down the hand he was holding the Golden Battle Sword with, and muttered to himself: ”Looks like he really left!”
In the darkness, a vine as thick as an infant's arm shot out like lightning a few meters away from Qi Tianyu. The vine was like the coldest poisonous snake, searching for the place where Qi Tianyu's defense was the weakest.
”I was waiting for you.” Sensing the movement behind him, the killing intent that was originally restrained by Qi Tianyu instantly exploded. Towards the enemy who was hiding in the darkness, Qi Tianyu would not hold back, his sword struck out towards the Sword World's most powerful move.
The vine could feel a fatal threat from this strike. It wanted to retreat, but it was too late. The Golden Battle Sword had already struck the vine.
”Sssii!”
When the Golden Battle Sword slashed at the vine, it was like tearing apart a piece of white paper. The vine that was as thick as an arm was sliced off by the Golden Battle Sword, and the parts that were chopped off still twisted on the ground after falling to the ground.
continued to slash at the vine, with each of his slashes bringing with it a cut of the vine.
Qi Tianyu stopped moving his sword, not because he wanted to let go of the vines, but because he had cut off part of the vines that were extending out. He did not retract his sword. The Golden Battle Sword was still surrounded by the and the sword intent.
In the darkness, the vine had suffered a huge loss from Qi Tianyu's attack, and one of the vines had already been cut off. Although it didn't have any facial expression or gaze that expressed its resentment, its following actions were its greatest revenge against Qi Tianyu.
This underground cave was pitch black to Qi Tianyu, so he was unable to determine the basic position, but to this vine, it was as if there were vines extending from all directions, sweeping over from all directions, with Qi Tianyu's position as the center.
