Chapter 1097: Premature Encounter

Qinglongzi made a gesture to keep quiet, and Qingsongzi quickly quieted down as well.

The two looked at each other.

They all heard it, coming from not far away...

The sound of fighting!
There were the sounds of weapons breaking through the wind, the screams and growls of wild beasts, and the dull sounds of bodies falling to the ground.

"Is there anyone else here?"

Qingsongzi widened his eyes and asked in a low voice.

Qing Longzi frowned slightly: "Go and take a look."

Both of them are people with courage more than heart. Now that they have come to such a place, why wouldn't they take a closer look?

Without hesitation, they followed the direction of the sound and soon entered a small cave corridor. After walking for less than half a quarter of an hour, they suddenly saw a clear view in front of them.

At the end of the corridor is a hanging wall, and underneath is a huge pit. In the pit, there is a figure holding a sword, fighting... with a group of monsters!

"What the hell is that!" Qingsongzi blurted out.

Qing Longzi looked down at the monsters with a surprised look on his face.

These monsters were red all over, without any clothes on their bodies, with rough skin all over their bodies, and several sharp horns of varying lengths on their heads. Their eyes were frighteningly large, taking up half of their faces, and the lower half of their faces were huge mouths that stretched from ear to ear, full of sharp teeth.

And there were hundreds of red monsters in the pit!
"It's a bit like the Red Devil in "Yahoo!"..."

Qing Songzi narrowed his eyes and said, "The red devil has a body like a branding iron, warts on its skin like a toad's back, and horns on its head like a broken halberd. Its eyes are like pools of blood hanging on its skull, its mouth is split to its ears, and its teeth are sharp like steel files. It is a cannibal and often hides in miasma forests. At midnight, it howls at the moon and robs villages, chewing bones and sucking marrow without leaving a piece of flesh. Only the remains are covered with red saliva, and the fishy smell can be smelled ten miles away... Are they these people?"

Qing Longzi nodded: "It sounds like it."

But their focus at this moment is not those Red Devils.

But it was the young man who was fighting with the group of red demons.

The boy who looked about the same age as them.

He was a young boy dressed very simply, no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, dancing with a long sword in his hand. His movements were very agile and his swordsmanship was as fast as lightning. Most importantly...

"There is no spiritual fluctuation in him!"

Qing Songzi's eyes widened: "He didn't practice!"

"How could a person who has not practiced cultivation actually appear here and fight back and forth with a group of red demons?"

He tilted his head to look at Qing Longzi: "Should we go help him?"

"want."

Qing Longzi responded without any hesitation.

They could all see that, although the young man was able to fight a group of red devils alone with his sharp sword skills and actually killed some of them, it was obvious that his physical strength was beginning to fail, and his body was scratched and bleeding by the surrounding red devils.

If the fight continues like this, the boy will surely die.

But now, he doesn't have to die.

Qinglongzi stuffed the box containing the Tai Chi fish into Qingsongzi's arms without hesitation, and then jumped down from the cliff. Without using any weapons, he gathered his true energy in his hands and swung them down in the air!
"Oh my god, why are you so anxious?" Qingsongzi was caught off guard.

But seeing that his fellow apprentice had already jumped, he had no choice but to hurriedly cover the box, stuff it into his bag, and put it on his back. Then he drew the sword on his back and jumped down.

Although the two brothers are now only in the fourth realm of martial arts and the fourth realm of spiritual enlightenment, they are just entry-level minions in the martial arts world, but the inheritance of the True Immortal Palace is not to be underestimated.

The young man was originally fighting the Red Devils in a very strenuous and painful manner, fighting and retreating, and was almost exhausted. He was gritting his teeth and trying to find a way to break out and escape, but suddenly a low shout came from above his head!
"Squat down!"

This voice also came from a young man. For this young man, hearing a human voice in a cave full of monsters naturally made him feel close to and trustful. He squatted down without hesitation!
The next moment, an extremely domineering and powerful palm wind swept over his head!
This palm wind swept across several red devils that pounced on the young man, and immediately beat them into a bloody mess, sending them flying in all directions.

With a thud, Qinglongzi fell heavily to the ground.

"These red devils are nothing more than that."

He turned around and glanced at the boy: "Stand back."

As he spoke, he did not forget to take the long sword from the boy's hand. The boy was startled, and before he could resist or question, the long sword in his hand disappeared.

The next moment, he looked at Qinglongzi who pounced into the group of red demons, and his pupils shrank!
How does Qinglongzi's swordsmanship look like the swordsmanship of a young man?
Precise, neat, clean and decisive, there is no frills and no delay in the moves, everything is as if carefully calculated, every sword strike is aimed at the position that saves the most energy and causes the greatest damage to the enemy!

In just a few breaths, Qing Longzi had killed seven or eight red demons. His efficiency was much higher than that of the young man just now!

Not only that.

Before the young man could come to his senses, he saw another person falling from above.

Qingsongzi, who looked extremely ugly, moved more gracefully than Qinglongzi. Two Taoist talismans had been stuck on the soles of his feet at some point, and a breeze was rising up to carry him, making him seem like an immortal descending from the sky.

What he cultivated was spiritual awareness, not martial awareness, and the long sword in his hand was not used for chopping. Instead, as he swung the sword, the tip of the sword drew a complicated spell in the air.

As the tip of the sword drew the last talisman, several arcs of lightning exploded out of thin air around it!
This is certainly not the same as the real way of heaven, and it can't even directly blow the red devils to death, but those tiny arcs of lightning can jump between the red devils. After they fall, they instantly connect into a lightning net and run through the entire group of red devils!

A large group of red devils were electrocuted and trembling stiffly. Qing Longzi took this opportunity to sweep the sword in his hand like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he killed nearly ten red devils!

After being electrocuted, the remaining Red Devils finally showed fear, screamed, and began to turn around and run away.

Qinglongzi and Qingsongzi chased after them and killed a few of them, but when they saw them escape into a pitch-black tunnel, they dared not chase them anymore.

"Huh, huh..."

At this time, the young man also caught up and panted and said, "Thank you, thank you."

Qing Longzi turned around and threw the sword back to the young man, who reached out to catch it.

"Your swordsmanship is good."

Qing Longzi said calmly: "If you have a famous teacher to guide you, you can become a master in the martial arts world in no time."

"Haha, I'm not interested in the martial arts world."

The young man was very outgoing and immediately said with a smile, "Soon, I will go to the capital to take part in the minor imperial examination. I want to be admitted to the Sword Academy and become an official of the imperial court!"

"Oh?"

Qing Songzi also came over at this time and said lazily: "What is the purpose of being an official? To be a superior person?"

"No."

The young man responded earnestly: "To support the aspirations of the people of the world and to save the world from injustice."

"Huh?"

Qingsongzi nudged Qinglongzi with his elbow and said, "Xiaolong, this little brother has similar ambitions to you!"

Qing Longzi's eyes also lit up slightly, and he bowed to the young man: "We two are disciples of the True Immortal Palace. I am Qing Longzi, and this is my senior brother Qing Songzi. Your ambition is very good, so we can be considered friends."

"correct."

Qingsongzi put his arm on Qinglongzi's shoulder, leaning crookedly and grinning, "What about you? What's your name? Why are you here? Not everyone can come to the Northern Desert!"

"Um... I was brought here by an elder in my family. He had something to do, and I wandered around by myself, but somehow I ended up here..."

The young man lowered his head, his tone a little hesitant.

The brothers Qinglong and Qingsong looked at each other and felt tacitly that... the young man did not tell the truth.

Isn't this nonsense?

The two of them came here following the guidance of the Tai Chi fish. There was a large group of monsters in the rift outside. If it weren't for the Tai Chi fish, they would have been dead long ago.

How could a young man who had not practiced cultivation come here if he had nothing special? How could he come here?

But before they could ask any questions, the young man spoke again.

"Also... my name is a little weird, please don't laugh at me."

He scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "My name is Ning Baimei."
