Chapter 688 Despair
run.

run.

Can't stop running.

Fu Qingzhou ran stumblingly, not daring to stop for a moment.

The giant did not attack immediately, but a humming sound like energy being accumulated could be heard from behind him.

Fu Qingzhou didn't dare to look back and could only run madly.

He did not run towards the waterfall where Lin Wangshu and the others were going, but ran along the edge of the cliff towards the place where there were the most monsters.

If I'm lucky, I can use this giant to help me kill more monsters...

As soon as this thought came to his mind, a buzzing sound suddenly broke out behind him, and a red light instantly illuminated the sky!
Fu Qingzhou didn't even have time to think. He relied on his instinct and used all his strength to leap to the side!

His foot stomped a shallow pit in the riverbed, splashing water, and he flew sideways like a cannonball.

At the same moment, a huge red beam of light, as thick as ten people could hug together, came sweeping over with a loud bang.

The beam of light was extremely hot. Wherever it passed, the lake water instantly evaporated into white mist, and the black bone fish in the water vaporized in the blink of an eye.

Fu Qingzhou fell heavily into the water, gritting his teeth in pain - although he dodged quickly enough, his right shoulder was still hit by the red light, and a piece of flesh on his shoulder instantly burned to charcoal!
What surprised him even more was that the red light did not stop but continued to sweep forward.

The monsters that had fled far away when the giant appeared, immediately ran away in panic the moment they saw the red light appear, but there were too many of them and they were too big, so they were all squeezed together, and in the end many of them could not escape and were hit by the red light.

In just a moment, all the monsters where the red light fell turned into smoke and dust amid howling in pain!

"This thing is too outrageous..."

Fu Qingzhou's heart was beating like a drum, and the cold sweat on his forehead was evaporated by the hot temperature under the red light.

He struggled to stand up from the water. The severe pain in his left shoulder made it almost impossible for him to keep his balance, but he had experienced this kind of pain too many times, and he finally managed to steady himself.

Broken fish bones were floating on the water, ashes of distant evil spirits were swirling in the wind, and there was a sense of despair in the dead silence.

"I can't stop... I can't die here."

Fu Qingzhou grinned, forced himself to cheer up, endured the pain, turned around and ran again.

Behind him, the giant still didn't catch up, but the feeling of oppression was always with him, as if the next devastating blow would come at any time.

Fu Qingzhou did not dare to relax at all. He began to move like a snake, running towards the direction where the monsters were, trying to confuse the giant's gaze and also trying to kill some more monsters.

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook, and several tentacles sprang out from the ground, blasting out towering water columns, like the chains of death, wrapping around him!

"Damn, there are so many tricks!"

There was a flash of determination in Fu Qingzhou's eyes. He dodged most of the tentacles' attacks with a flash of his sword, and at the same time, he swung out his long sword, which slashed at the tentacles with lightning speed!

These tentacles were not thick. When the knife flashed, they broke instantly, sprayed out black liquid, and a disgusting corpse stench filled the air.

But Fu Qingzhou had no time to take care of these. After cutting off the tentacles, a gap naturally appeared in their encirclement. He leaped through it, ran frantically for a while, and finally found a temporary shelter in a narrow crevice in the cliff.

There were many monsters outside this place, but they no longer attacked him. They all huddled under the rock wall and trembled. Fu Qingzhou took this opportunity to pass through them and came into the gap.

"No matter what, you have to take a breath, or you will really die."

He leaned his back against the cliff, breathing heavily, and of course his eyes were always alert to the outside of the gap.

In a moment, he had taken several pills that he had taken from the Ziqi Xianfeng Temple. The charred part of his shoulder was also cut off deftly by his knife. Fresh red blood flowed out, but the bleeding soon stopped under the effect of the Qiran Jue.

Outside, the tentacles were waving around, as if looking for him, but fortunately, the gap was too narrow for them to enter.

"What is the origin of this giant? Why does he have such a strong reaction to the German sword?"

Fu Qingzhou couldn't see the giant from this angle, but he knew it would come soon. Just as he was thinking, a deafening roar suddenly came from outside, and then the entire cliff began to tremble.

"no……"

Fu Qingzhou's heart tightened, and he gritted his teeth: "If he doesn't come to find me, he might go to find Lin Wangshu and Hua Xiaolan! Damn it, I can't be a coward!"

He took a deep breath and clenched his sword: "Go out and kite it for a while!"

But just when he just squeezed out of the cliff, the red light that had appeared just now shone again in front of his eyes. The red light once again cut through the sky, sweeping across like a sickle that reaped lives!

"I rely on!"

He didn't have time to think, and relying on instinct and natural reaction of his body, he suddenly turned sideways, almost sliding down the cliff, and then rolled on the spot. The red light passed close to his body, and the heat wave scorched the corners of his clothes.

"No, how can we fight this? Even if we gather the power of the entire Ten Thousand Poisons Mountain, can we kill it?"

Fu Qingzhou cursed inwardly. He tried to steady himself, but found that the red light in front of him had lit up again.

To make matters worse, the ground began to shake violently, and countless tentacles broke out of the ground from all directions, covering him like a net of death.

Not far away, the giant stood there motionless.

The single eye in the shadow of its helmet shone like a red sun, emitting a red light that was enough to burn everything.

The tentacles in the gaps of its armor pierced down into the ground, wriggling and twisting, controlling the tentacles around Fu Qingzhou.

He swung his sword and cut off a few tentacles, but the next second, more tentacles broke out of the ground.

"Are you going to die?"

Fu Qingzhou felt a deep despair in his heart.

Along the way, he faced many opponents stronger than himself alone.

Some of them wanted to kill him, some wanted to capture him, but no matter what, he managed to get out in the end.

Only this time, he didn't even have much of a chance to struggle.

And… the other party was obviously unable to communicate.

The next second, those tentacles had wrapped around his waist, abdomen and legs like pythons, lifting him high up. He tried to use his true energy to fight back, but he was almost exhausted.

Then he raised his head and saw the dazzling red light that almost submerged the outline of the giant.

The destructive burning red light could come at any time.

Fu Qingzhou knew that he was going to die.

In the moment before his death, he felt some emotion in his heart.

He recalled the past, the laughter, tears, fights and loneliness. He wondered if he would have any regrets if he died like this. But then he thought again, although his life was full of ups and downs, it was also wonderful.

"My luck isn't that good either."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "It's a pity that I couldn't go back to the capital to go shopping with Jiaojiao, couldn't get married with Chan'er, and couldn't... find Laogui again."

"There are still many regrets... Damn, this light is too bright."

He raised his right hand that was not entangled by the tentacles and blocked his face.

The next moment, red light burst out from the giant's eyes.
