Nine Star Burden - Chapter 634
Chapter 634: Passing the test
Seven days later, in the upper dimension of the snowfield, about five kilometers away from the residence of Hu Wei and his wife at the bottom of the canyon, a mountain forest was burning.
The fire arrow that was used to bait Jiang Xiao and Hu Wei’s flame split were the culprits.
In the beginning, it wasn’t difficult to set the withered trees on fire. However, when the fire spread, even the two of them couldn’t stop it from happening.
Even if second last and Xia Yan were to come, they would probably not be able to get rid of the burning forest with the frost.
In the snowfield forest, the White ghouls were scurrying around and fighting intensely all the time. When the fire started burning, Jiang Xiao and Hu Wei had already left the forest quickly, for fear of being trapped.
The next stage of the mission was to use as many rocks and soil as possible to build a strong beacon tower here.
This burning mountain forest could indeed become a landmark. He didn’t know if such a big fire would attract other survivors.
There would come a day when this snowfield and forest would be burned out or extinguished. The snowfield between the snowfields was very wide and could be regarded as a natural isolation zone. After a few years, this place would be covered by the wind and snow, and there would be no more Flames of War.
Besides, building a strong beacon tower that would constantly emit smoke would indeed help Jiang Xiao find the way he came.
The baits, Jiang Xiao and Hu Wei, continued to execute the second task without stopping.
In these short seven days, far away on earth, in the distant Central Asia region, in the territory of conkkin, a small team was wantonly destroying the Holy ruins of different dimensional spaces.
Such an assessment mission was not only second last’s assessment for sun Dasheng and hou Mingming, but also a mutual assessment between sun Dasheng and hou Mingming.
It was very interesting that both sun Dasheng and hou Mingming were surprised by the strength that the other had displayed.
Sun Dasheng didn’t have a problem with the academic faction. He was originally from the academic faction.
He only thought that the reason why Mingming was able to join the top elite team as soon as she graduated was because of the World Cup and Jiang Xiao’s reputation.
However, when the team really started to carry out the mission, sun Dasheng realized that although hou Ming was at the peak of the Galaxy stage, one level lower than him, and lacked eight advanced high-quality star techniques, he was simply a god-like existence in terms of the speed and efficiency of destroying the holy ground!
Without a doubt, this was a huge cannon!
And how strong was this cannon?
Whether it was second last or sun Dasheng, they were no match for hou Mingming in terms of destroying the holy ground.
The star maps and star techniques clearly had great advantages and were simply tailor-made for the mountain shattering Army and the wasteland reclaimers. However, they were forcefully dragged into the night guard Army by Jiang Xiao.
Fortunately, this light-chasing team needed to form a special team, which was very similar to the mountain breaking Army. This allowed hou Mingming to display his full value.
Ever since she had clearly seen sun Dasheng’s style of sweeping away thousands of troops, she had also realized how strong this guy was.
For example, right now …
In the dark Hall’s dimensional space, under the dark red Sky, an excited roar came from the valley,””Charge!”
Sun Dasheng’s order was as simple and direct as ever. A red headband was tied on his head, and his fluffy hair was flying behind him as he sprinted.
Several figures suddenly sprang out from sun Dasheng’s body and scattered in all directions.
Sun Dasheng himself held an alloy rod in his hand. Facing the overwhelming flock of crows that were sweeping toward him, his rapidly charging figure suddenly leaped up. He clenched the alloy rod with both hands and fiercely smashed it on the ground.
As the alloy rod in his hand missed and hit the ground, a huge alloy rod shadow fell from the dark red Sky and split the flock of black shadow crows.
Jiang Xiao and second last each held a giant sword and slashed at those who tried to attack them.
There was only a green glow on Jiang Xiao’s giant sword, and every time second last brandished her sword, there would be a gust of bone-chilling frost wind.
The three of them were almost in the shape of an ‘arrow’ as they tore through the holy ground, which was covered by the Black Crows.
After all, the closer they got to the holy ground, the more shadow crows flew out.
Houming was a few steps behind the two of them. As the “arrow” tore through the thick wall of Black Crows, houming, who was running with large steps, bent his legs and jumped, rushing out of the “Crow wall” that the three of them had broken through.
At the same time, hou Ming, who was in mid-air, was in a posture of charging diagonally upwards. She drew her bow and shot an arrow, her black ponytail flying in the wind.
His sharp eyes pierced through the chaotic scene of countless crows flying around and found the gap. His fingers that were tightly gripping the arrow feather instantly loosened.
A series of black-feathered arrows were shot out at an extremely fast and accurate speed. They passed through the chaotic sky and headed straight for the gate of the holy ground in the distant sky.
呯!呯!呯!
The three huge alloy rods seemed to be protecting the string of black-feathered arrows.
The scattered shadows seemed to have turned into the real sun Dasheng. The huge alloy staff was invincible.
Sun Dasheng’s flickering speed was simply too fast. It was to the point that people thought that three sun Dasheng’s had appeared at the same time and were brandishing that huge alloy staff at the same time.
Ever since the four-man team tore apart the Black Crows in front of them, Jiang Xiao and second last stopped attacking and began to defend, except for sun Dasheng, who had clearly cleared the obstacles with his help.
This team had been doing missions together for a full seven days, and the team members had already understood how this team operated.
According to the distance, the team had reached this point, which was enough for hou Mingming.
呯!
She was clearly standing behind Jiang Xiao. Although there were two people in front of her, she would subconsciously stand behind him every time.
On the one hand, it was because she recognized Jiang Xiao’s strength. On the other hand, it was also because of her subconscious trust in Him.
Then, his sharp eyes followed his black-feathered arrow and saw the black mist of the explosion!
In the end, the first arrow was still hit by the shadow crows flying around and exploded. The shadow crows flying around were also blown away.
As for the arrows that were further away, they didn’t change their trajectory and plunged into the black mist.
The next moment, the six arrows shot out of the black mist one by one, still in a straight line.
After that, she placed her hand on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and clenched it slightly. Her eyes were focused on the string of black-feathered arrows, and she was no longer in the mood to observe her surroundings.
However, she could feel Jiang Xiao’s defensive movements with the hand that was holding his shoulder.
Then, she subconsciously followed the direction of Jiang Xiao’s rotation to ensure that he would always be isolated from danger. Although she was very confident in her archery skills, the situation here was too special and the shadow crows would really disrupt her attack.
The second one, the sixth one …
The arrows were touched by the shadow crows and exploded one by one. When the arrow in the middle was hit by a group of shadow crows, Jiang Xiao also felt the strength of her palm on his shoulder.
Two seconds later, hou Ming’s palm relaxed slightly.
It seemed that she could withdraw her gaze and focus on the surrounding battlefield.
The bombing arrow still hung a hundred meters away from the gate of the holy ground as planned.
Now, even if there were tens of millions of shadow crows charging, the explosive rain of arrows would tear them to pieces.
This was simply a fixed explosion. Although the bombing arrow rain was random, there was a fixed bombing area, and the clear target was, of course, the area of the holy ground’s Gate.
Hong long long …
The sound of explosions was endless, flames soared into the sky, and heat waves overflowed.
Under the fire of the exploding arrows, shadow crows fell from the sky one after another. Their black feathers fluttered in the air, and a group of shadow crows transformed into a giant shadow Crow.
Sun Dasheng had finally completed the task of disrupting the enemy and protecting the arrows. He retreated and looked up at the arrow rain that had already taken shape and was wildly blasting. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but raise slightly.”Retreat!”
Without any hesitation, he was resolute and decisive.
After that, Ming Ming turned around and left, shooting out a string of black-feathered arrows. This time, it was her turn to be the vanguard.
While moving at high speed, hou Ming’s Black-feathered arrows seemed to be free of charge, and they even had a fixed point tracking effect.
Flocks of Black Crows were accurately shot and transformed into star power, which returned to its master’s direction and pieced together to form a larger shadow Crow. However, before the transformation was successful, they would be shot in the head by an arrow.
Jiang Xiao saw the black-feathered arrows being shot into the Crow’s Eye one after another, and he also saw the black-feathered arrows exploding in the crow’s head.
There was nothing much to say and Jiang Xiao could only secretly marvel at it.
Whether it was sun Dasheng or hou Mingming, they were very qualified when they were the vanguards. Under the circumstances of not being attacked by creatures of other dimensions on a large scale, there was generally no need for the other members of the team to take action.
The only difference between the two of them might be the difference in speed.
Once a great sage started running, he would be able to fly in the sky and burrow into the ground. He really had to take care of the people behind him to prevent his teammates from being left behind.
The rear was clearly better, and the speed of the March was very stable …
She didn’t know when it happened, but nostalgia had already appeared under her feet. Every time she shot an arrow, she clearly felt her star power recover and her physical strength increase rapidly.
In the end, he even had a feeling of his blood vessels bursting. The more he killed, the more excited he became. He ran faster and faster, and the speed at which he nocked his bow and shot arrows also became faster and faster.
‘He’s about to evolve into a Berserker, uh …’ No, it was a Berserker.
Jiang Xiao switched off nostalgia in a timely manner and cast counter-current light, quickly resolving the problem of hou Ming’s vitality and star power overflow.
From the moment he entered the dimensional space, Jiang Xiao had been running and killing while he was exhausted. However, he had never stepped on the Halo of nostalgia. He had been waiting for this moment.
After a short 15 seconds, under the dark red Sky, the dimensional space began to shake violently!
In the distant horizon, the sounds of explosions continued. The four-man team had already retreated and rushed towards the spatial gate they had come from.
For Jiang Xiao, he would gain more on the way back. Since he had already completed his mission, he would flash to the side of the shadow Crow that had clearly been shot through the head and collect the shadow Crow star bead.
The rest of the team were already used to such a scene. In the past few days, Jiang Xiao had obtained a large number of shadow Crow star beads in this way. Jiang Xiao had also discussed it with sun Dasheng and obtained permission before he implemented the plan.
Since Jiang Xiao wanted it, she was clearly trying to help him.
On the way back, Jiang Xiao obtained 27 shadow Crow star beads. The rest of them also rushed out of the space gate and descended from the sky.
After that, he clearly left another explosive arrow in the spatial door and made preparations before rushing out of the spatial door.
The door to the Dark Palace’s dimensional space was always open in the sky.
Jiang Xiao could teleport, but sun Dasheng’s body was as light as a feather and he fell down.
When houming came out, second last was already riding on Xiaoxiao and waiting for her in the air.
The dark silver whip condensed in second last’s hand and she swung it gently, wrapping it around hou Mingming’s body. The dark silver whip elongated infinitely, became thinner, and its color became fainter. When it was more than 20 meters away from the ground, the whip disappeared completely and hou Mingming fell heavily on the ground.
She looked up and saw second last standing in front of the gate of the dimensional space, not allowing any living creatures to come out.
A few days ago, second last would still use the frost wind personally. However, now, Xiaoxiao was flapping her wings and blowing frost into the gate of the other dimension.
Not long after, the dark red spatial gate disappeared in front of second last.
Second last stroked Baishan Xueyu’s mane and patted it in admiration.
“Harrumph~” with a small neigh, it flapped its wings and flew down.
The huge Pegasus landed on the ground and took two steps forward. It then lowered its head and affectionately bumped it against Jiang Xiao’s chest.
Second last sat on the horse’s back and lowered her head to look at sun Dasheng and hou Mingming with a look of admiration on her face.
Jiang Xiao hugged his head and understood second last’s expression.
This team should have passed the test.
