Chapter 386: People from Chaoyin Pavilion?
"Evil beast! Don't hurt anyone."
The icy mist had not yet dissipated, but the woman's bow-drawing movement had been frozen into a cold silhouette.
She raised her bare hand slightly, and ice crystals fell from the tail of the arrow. When her eyes swept across the three Nascent Soul monsters, the coldness in her eyes became even stronger, but her voice was as calm as the surface of a snow-covered lake.
"Someone from Chaoyin Pavilion?"
When she saw the person coming, Lin Wan'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and Yun Chen's expression moved, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
I didn't expect to meet someone from Chaoyin Pavilion.
Doesn’t that mean we’ll have news about Master’s whereabouts soon?
However, before Yun Chen could speak, the woman raised her hand and shot three arrows.
Three ice arrows, wrapped in biting cold air, broke through the air, and tiny ice crystals condensed before the arrow tips reached the monster's body.
The first arrow accurately penetrated the armored bear's front paw, and the ice spread along the bear's claws, instantly nailing it to the spot.
The second arrow grazed the black python by seven inches. Although it did not penetrate the flesh, it caused a thin layer of ice to form on the inky scales, causing its swallowing and biting movements to suddenly become sluggish.
The third arrow was even more powerful, hitting the base of the scorpion's tail stinger. The ice spikes followed the stinger into the body and froze the dark blue poison sac into a crystal clear ice block.
The black python's movements were slowed by the ice arrow, its turbid bloodshot eyes filled with violence. Its huge body swung violently, and its tail, over twenty feet long, smashed towards the woman with a sound of breaking through the air.
The barbs on the underside of the tail shone with a cold light. If you were hit by it, you would probably be torn apart with flesh and bones.
The woman did not dodge or evade. She turned the ice bow in her palm and it turned into an ice crystal spear half a person's height.
She jumped up on tiptoe, and the cold air condensed on the tip of the halberd exploded instantly, forming a translucent ice wall.
With a dull "bang", the python's tail hit the ice wall. As the ice shattered, most of the force was also removed, leaving only a few pieces of broken ice splashing to the ground.
Yun Chen was shocked when he saw this.
This woman was clearly only at the late Jindan stage, but her technique of controlling the cold air was extremely exquisite, and she could even withstand the attack of a demon beast at the middle Yuanying stage.
He didn't have time to think about it. He saw the Iron Bear struggling against the ice on its paws. Stone spikes were already surging under its feet. He quickly grasped the golden sword and forced the last bit of his spiritual power to speak: "Wan'er, protect yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he shot out like an arrow, with his sword pointing directly at the armored bear's belly.
That was the weak point of the black iron shell, and it was also the place that was previously frozen by the ice arrow.
The lightning force burst out along the tip of the sword, and with a "sizzling" sound, the electric arc penetrated the flesh that had not yet completely thawed. The armored bear let out a roar that shook the valley, and its huge body fell to its knees on the ground with a bang. The movement of the stone spikes also stopped instantly.
"Be careful of the scorpion!"
Lin Wan'er's exclamation was heard suddenly.
Yun Chen caught a glimpse of the scorpion with its venom sac frozen, and saw that it had torn its stinger apart. Half of its tail tip, which was glowing blue, shot towards the woman's back like a hidden weapon.
The woman seemed to have noticed it long ago. She raised her ice crystal spear with her backhand, accurately picking up the tip of the tail. At the same time, she turned sideways and condensed three ice cones with her other hand, shooting them straight at the scorpion's compound eyes.
The scorpion felt pain and spun around in place, exposing its soft belly.
Yun Chen seized the opportunity and thrust out the Thunder Sword again. This time, the thunder force penetrated its internal organs directly. The poisonous scorpion twitched twice and then died.
The only remaining black python became more and more manic when it saw its companions dying one after another, and opened its mouth to spew out thick black miasma.
The miasma was filled with black poison, and when it landed on the ground, it eroded deep pits in the rocks, and even the air was filled with a pungent smell of decay.
The woman frowned slightly, raised her hands and formed a seal. The cold air spread along the ground, freezing the edges of the miasma into ice crystals, temporarily trapping the spread of the poisonous miasma.
"I'll contain its movements, and you look for an opportunity to attack its vital points!"
The woman's voice was as cold as ice. When it reached Yun Chen's ears, she was already rushing towards the black python with an ice crystal spear in hand.
Her figure moved around the python's body, and every time the long spear passed by, it would leave an ice mark on the black python's scales. Although it could not hurt the root, it could catch the black python's attention.
Yun Chen took a deep breath and poured all his remaining spiritual power into the golden sword.
Both his Nine Yang Qi and the Thunder Magic of the Divine Thunder Palace could restrain evil spirits. At this moment, the pale purple electric arc radiating from the sword actually made the Black Python show some fear.
He took advantage of the moment when the black python raised its head to spit out miasma, jumped up on his toes, and stabbed the sword at the black python's seven-inch point like a meteor.
That was the weakest spot on the scales, where the ice arrow had previously hit it.
With a "puff", the thunder sword pierced through the scales and the black python's roar stopped abruptly.
Its huge body froze for a moment, then slammed heavily to the ground, shaking the entire valley.
Yun Chen staggered when he landed, and the soul-eating poison on his back began to take effect, and his vision went dark.
The woman put away her ice crystal halberd and slowly walked up to him. Her eyes fell on his blood-stained back, and her brows furrowed slightly. "You've been poisoned by the Soul Devouring Miasma. If you delay any longer, it will eat into your meridians."
As she spoke, she took out a porcelain bottle from her storage bag and tossed it to Yun Chen: "This is 'Qing Miasma Powder'. Take it with water. It can temporarily suppress the toxicity."
Yun Chen took the porcelain bottle and felt the cold bottle body with his fingertips. His vigilance did not diminish. "Thank you for your help, young lady. May I ask if you are from Chaoyin Pavilion?"
The woman's eyes slightly raised, a hint of surprise flashed across her face. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard a burst of dense footsteps in the distance, mixed with the shouts and curses of the Japanese monks.
Lin Wan'er's expression changed slightly: "It's the Shadow Snake Group that's catching up!"
A cold light flashed in the woman's eyes, and she grasped the ice bow again: "Let's leave here first, and I'll tell you in detail on the way."
Yun Chen nodded when he heard this, knowing that now was not the time to ask.
Several people flashed and immediately ran out of the forest.
The Shadow Snake Group was incredibly fast. Just when they had escaped a hundred meters, they saw a group of people coming towards them to encircle them.
Fortunately, these people were not very strong, and Yun Chen and his companions quickly took care of them.
Then he ran away all the way... and finally got rid of those Japanese monks and puppet monsters after half an hour.
After passing through the last patch of bushes filled with miasma, the entrance to the cave, half hidden behind vines, finally appeared on the rock wall ahead.
The woman from Chaoyin Pavilion stepped forward first, and her fingers were like swords. The cold air passed by, and the vines were instantly frozen brittle. She reached out and pulled, revealing a hole that could accommodate two people walking side by side.
"Let's talk inside." She moved aside, and Yun Chen supported Lin Wan'er and staggered in. Mei Chuan followed closely behind, not forgetting to look back, fearing that pursuers would suddenly appear.
The cave was dry and dust-free, with a few faintly glowing fluorites embedded in the ceiling, barely illuminating the surroundings.
Yun Chen sat down against the rock wall. Just as he was about to circulate his spiritual energy to suppress the poison, he saw the woman from Chaoyin Pavilion handing him a more exquisite porcelain bottle. "This is Bingxin Pill. It's more effective than Qingzhao Powder and can completely eliminate the remaining Soul Devouring Poison in your body."
He took the porcelain bottle and poured out a white pill. It turned into a stream of cool air as it entered his mouth, flowing along his meridians. The numbness in his back instantly dissipated for the most part.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and looked up at the woman from Chaoyin Pavilion who had saved them.
