Immortal Martial God

Chapter 188 A Sneak Attack From The Snow

"Where are they?" Xiang Nan's expression was grave.

Even if they went out to pick herbs and hunt demonic beasts, they wouldn't have all left at once, right? In such a large town, not even a single person was left behind?

"This place is a bit strange. It's better for us to leave as soon as possible." Xiang Nan picked up the little girl and quickly left.

After traveling northward again, they had already begun to enter a dangerous area. The demonic energy in the air was getting denser and denser, and the corresponding amount of spiritual energy was getting smaller and smaller.

Such a thin amount of spiritual energy was very disadvantageous to a human martial artist.

Xiang Nan Xia subconsciously touched his storage ring. Fortunately, during the battle in Baishou City, he had taken fifteen Intermediate Grade Spirit Stones. Apart from the ones he had used, he still had three on him, which was enough for him to replenish his Yuan Qi to perfection three times.

As he walked forward, there were more flying demonic beasts circling in the sky. Occasionally, he would see a huge black shadow flashing past the sky.

At this moment, Xiang Nan held the girl in his arms and lowered his body.

It was not wise to provoke a demonic beast. A demonic beast was not scary. What was scary was that one didn't know which demonic beasts had the ability to summon their companions. When the time came, killing one of them would cause a chain reaction and it would be terrible.

"The demonic beasts here have already reached the first level of Origin Return." Xiang Nan took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his Yuan Qi fluctuations to a minimum, even slowing down his heartbeat.

"Hmm? What is this?" Just as Xiang Nan was lowering his body and crossing through the dense bushes, he suddenly saw a pile of stones under a tree.

The stones were arranged in a tower, like artificial markings.

Could it be that the Cavalry Sect disciples left behind a signal for help?

Xiang Nan didn't know much about the situation of the cavalry gate, so he couldn't judge for a moment. However, after the little girl saw the stone, her eyes moved slightly, as if she had thought of something.

At this moment, a faint sound of air breaking suddenly appeared!

The air-piercing sound was extremely difficult to detect, it was simply like a leaf trembling slightly.

The little girl gently pulled Xiang Nan with her hand. Almost at the same time, Xiang Nan could feel the sound of air breaking. His body quickly moved horizontally, and he felt an icy chill as he slid over his shoulder.

It was a small streak of light, which, after brushing past Xiang Nan's shoulder and leaving a tear in his sleeve, immediately pierced through the tree trunk in front of him, and it was still silent.

Xiang Nan was drenched in cold sweat. He suddenly turned around, but there was nothing behind him, not even the slightest abnormal fluctuation.

Someone! Let's go!

Xiang Nan's heart became heavy. He quickened his pace, lowered his body at an extremely fast speed, and circled back and forth between the trees to avoid the enemy's sneak attack in such an arc.

Suddenly, another inaudible sound of air-piercing rang out. Xiang Nan still only noticed this sound the moment it was about to hit him. He dodged it dangerously.

However, the hidden weapon this time still cut through the mink flannel cloth on Xiang Nan's back.

"How could this be?" Xiang Nan leaned against a tree and began to breathe quickly.

He found that he couldn't sense the existence of a hidden weapon in advance. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. He had been attacked by a hidden weapon twice before and after, and it could be said that he was almost hit by it.

The speed of the concealed weapon was extremely fast. As long as someone activated the concealed weapon, the concealed weapon would definitely leave a strong tearing sound in the air. This was one of the main ways a martial artist could judge the arrival of the concealed weapon.

However, when Xiang Nan was ambushed twice, the hidden weapon was like a ghost in the air, quietly approaching, making it difficult for him to detect it.

If he couldn't sense the sound of air-piercing, Xiang Nan would be like a blind person who couldn't see with both eyes. This gave him an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Early in the morning, the sun shone brightly, illuminating the snow. His vision was very wide, but Xiang Nan felt as if he was walking in a fog.

He hugged the girl and stopped for a moment before continuing forward slowly.

However, in a trance, he seemed to see a vague figure standing in the bushes right in front of him, as if he was looking at him.

However, when Xiang Nan focused on it, the figure disappeared for no apparent reason.

"Could it be an illusion?" Xiang Nan frowned. He always felt that after coming to this area, everything revealed a strange energy.

He touched his storage ring. There was still a final message inside. Whether he wanted to use it here or not, he needed to carefully consider.

At that moment, a great sense of death suddenly enveloped Xiang Nan. This kind of crisis caused Xiang Nan to immediately dodge.

Pu!

He felt that he had dodged in time, but his left shoulder still felt a sharp pain!

He hastily pulled out the hidden weapon from his left shoulder. He looked over and saw that he was holding a small short blade in his hand.

This kind of short blade was like a shrunk dagger. It was only two fingers wide, and its index finger was long, but it didn't have a handle.

"It actually pierced through" Xiang Nan looked at the blood stains on the short blade and his heart sank. The short blade had actually pierced into his black-spotted armor!

It was hard to imagine that if he didn't wear the black-spotted armor, the power of the short blade would definitely be able to pierce through his body.

Not only was the enemy's sneak attack hard to detect, it was also so powerful!

Xiang Nan hurriedly leaned against a tree trunk. The purpose was not to let the tree trunk help him block the attack, but to act as the first barrier. When the enemy's sneak attack came again, he would first pierce through the tree trunk and make a sound, so that he could gain time to dodge.

However, when Xiang Nan leaned against the tree trunk and was about to poke his head to the left, he discovered that a small streak of light was about to press against the tip of his nose.

In that instant, Xiang Nan's pupils contracted. He instinctively raised his right hand and used his two fingers to condense his Yuan Qi to grab the light that was about to pierce through his nose!

It was still a small short blade that Xiang Nan had picked up with his finger. However, the huge impact from the short blade had actually pushed Xiang Nan's entire body back to the right, sliding nearly ten meters!

"This" Xiang Nan took a deep breath and felt his scalp numb.

The short blade in his hand had just turned! Just as it was about to hit the tree, it suddenly drew an arc, dodging the tree trunk and approaching Xiang Nan.

Fortunately, Xiang Nan looked to the left. Otherwise, the short blade would have pierced through his ears and pierced through his entire head.

"Damn it!" Xiang Nan was annoyed. He threw down the short blade and swiftly wiped his eyes with both of his hands. He immediately looked at the back of the short blade with his lightning-like eyes.

In an instant, everything within his sight became clear.

At the fork above a tree, there was a person squatting. The person was holding a short blade between his fingers and was shooting at him.

Xiang Nan was shocked. He simply couldn't believe what he saw.

The person squatting on the tree branch was actually a first level Origin Reversion martial artist!
