I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 171

Chapter 171 - Square Inch Horizon

Xiang Yun looked over and felt his scalp explode!

"Oh my G.o.d!"

In the distance, there were tens of thousands of cloud beasts gathered at the foot of the mountain. They were of all different shapes and sizes, and were like a swarm of locusts.

At this moment, they were engrossed in devouring the corpses of the Cloud Beasts at the foot of the mountain.

With their heads buried and mouths open, they used their sharp teeth or sharp claws to rip open the stomachs of these Cloud Beasts and began to gobble down their b.l.o.o.d.y bellies!

For a time, organs and limbs littered the ground, and the smell of blood rose to the heavens!

The surroundings of the mountain seemed to have become a natural feeding ground for countless Cloud Beasts. Some of them were focused on eating the corpses in front of them, while others were fighting for them!

Some of them were too engrossed with the Cloud Beast's carca.s.s and were ambushed by the Cloud Beast behind them, resulting in the corpses becoming food for others. The entire scene was b.l.o.o.d.y and horrifying.

How could Xiang Yun not be shocked when he suddenly saw this scene? The latter subconsciously retreated a step, and this step just happened to send a piece of rock flying!

The rocks began to slide down the hill!

"This is bad!"

Upon seeing the falling rubble, Xiang Yun's face immediately turned pale with fright. He reached out to grab it, but it was already too late. The rubble rolled down, crashing into another few pieces of rubble and rolling down the mountain together with it!

The rolling of the rocks on the mountain alarmed the Cloud Beast at the bottom of the mountain. In an instant, over a thousand Cloud Beasts raised their heads and looked at the middle of the mountain!

"Smell!"

There were many cloud beasts that had special abilities. Some of them had an unusually sensitive sense of smell. The latter was far away but he could smell that there was something living at the waist of the mountain.

"Howl!"

As he let out a strange cry, dozens of flexible figures suddenly shot toward Xiang Yun's hiding spot among the Cloud Beast at the foot of the mountain. Their speed was as fast as lightning.

Seeing this, Xiang Yun was shocked. He could clearly feel that the aura of these Cloud Beasts were astonishing. It was likely that none of them were below the soldier rank.

Faced with this kind of vicious being who came in droves, Xiang Yun did not hesitate at all as he immediately turned and fled.

He had originally wanted to turn around and flee into the cave, but just as he turned around, Xiang Yun took a step forward.

Glancing at the nearby cave, Xiang Yun suddenly thought of something. He immediately turned and ran in another direction.

At this moment, Xiang Yun suddenly felt a tightening sensation on his shoulders. The latter abruptly turned his head, his eyes wide in shock!

"Luo He!"

The person who came was actually Luo He, who was clad in black robes and had a stern expression on her face.

The moment Xiang Yun saw Luo He, he hurriedly stretched out his hand, placing her behind him.

"Luo He, I'll lure them away. Hurry back to the cave!"

After speaking, he stood up again, wanting to lure away the beasts that were already close to the gigantic boulder. However, Luo He once again pulled him back!

"Luo He, what are you doing?"

Just as Xiang Yun was flabbergasted by himself, he saw Luo He's right hand flash, and two black beads appeared in her palms.

Luo He threw the pearl in her hand toward the ground. In the next moment, a green smoke spread out and covered the area within a hundred meter radius!

"Let's go back to the cave!"

In the next moment, Xiang Yun's arms tightened as Luo He's urgent voice rang beside his ears. The latter reacted as well, quickly returning to the entrance of the cave with Luo He's memory!

Luo He pulled Xiang Yun along and was about to push him into the cave when Xiang Yun twisted and grabbed Luo He's hand.

"Hurry, you go in first!"

Xiang Yun pushed Luo He into the cave without hesitation. The situation was critical, and Luo He didn't want to waste any more time. She bent down and burrowed into the cave.

This cave could only allow one person to enter by themselves. Furthermore, they had to enter by crouching body and half lying down!

Xiang Yun had already heard the heavy breathing of the few Cloud Beasts behind him. This proved that they were very close to him. Feeling rather anxious, Xiang Yun hurriedly reached out and pushed towards Luo He.

"Go in, they're coming."

In the end, Xiang Yun had just casually pushed against Luo He's b.u.t.tocks.

Luo He's body, which was originally rushing into the cave, froze in place as if it had been struck by lightning.

"Quickly!"

Seeing that Luo He had actually stopped, Xiang Yun became even more anxious. He pushed against the latter's b.u.t.t once more, using quite a bit of force as he shoved Luo He's body into the cave!

Xiang Yun also hurriedly followed and crawled in. As he did so, he thought to himself, "Brother Luo He is very thin, but her b.u.t.t is quite fleshy!"

After climbing into the cave, Xiang Yun did not stay idle. He immediately lifted a huge rock from the cave and quietly blocked the entrance.

Looking at Luo He who was still rooted to the side, motionless, Xiang Yun could not help but speak in a low tone of urgency.

"What are you waiting for? Quickly hide inside the cave!"

At this moment, the shattered rocks outside the cave suddenly shook, and the sound of claws scratching against the mountain rocks could be heard. At the same time, the mountain rock that Xiang Yun had blocked off earlier actually arched downwards!

"This is bad!"

Xiang Yun turned pale with fright. These fellows must have smelled something inside and wanted to dig through the rubble to enter the cave!

In the next instant, Xiang Yun's body flickered as he stepped forward to block the falling boulder. At the same time, his back was facing Luo He as he spoke in an extremely urgent tone.

"Luo He, quickly go and see if there are other exits within the cave. If there aren't any, then you must follow me closely later. We'll charge out together!"

However, Xiang Yun did not notice that Luo He was currently staring at him with an extremely complicated gaze. A thick killing intent first flashed across the latter's eyes before a sliver of hesitation appeared on his face.

"Hurry up, what are you waiting for?"

Xiang Yun turned around and realized that Luo He was still standing there. He thought that Luo He had been scared silly and hurriedly urged her on.

In the end, Luo He still did not move. A red handkerchief that resembled a woman's embroidered handkerchief appeared in his palm. The latter pulled Xiang Yun, who was blocking the entrance of the cave, and shook the handkerchief in his hand!

The square handkerchief that had originally only been the size of an embroidered handkerchief was now spread out. It actually covered a radius of a few dozen feet and instantly covered the entrance of the cave. It was like a curtain that had sealed up the entrance.

"What is this?" The miraculous square handkerchief that Luo He had taken out caused Xiang Yun's eyes to widen in shock.

"This is a cloud weapon. Its name is' square inch of land ', and it is a defensive magic tool that can block the power of air!"

Before Luo He's voice could fade away, the intense sounds of digging outside had already disappeared. Only the low roars of wild beasts could be heard, and with the sound of chaotic footsteps, there was no longer any movement outside.

"They're gone?"

Xiang Yun had never imagined that the dangerous situation just now would be resolved so easily with a square handkerchief taken out by Luo He. This truly made him stare in shock.

"This is the Bloodthirsty Shadow Wolf. Its sense of smell is extremely sensitive and can lock onto the scent of prey for tens of kilometers. However, once the scent of prey disappears, it will immediately give up on tracking."

After he finished speaking, Luo He didn't put away the square piece of cloth called 'square inch of land'. Instead, she turned around and walked into the depths of the cave.

Xiang Yun calmed himself down a little and followed Luo He in. As the latter walked, she looked at Luo He's back in surprise.

Just what was Luo He's ident.i.ty? How could she casually take out such a rare treasure?

Just now, behind the huge rock, she casually threw out two pearls, which unexpectedly gave rise to a cloud of smoke. Then, she casually took out a handkerchief, unexpectedly isolating her aura.

In front of him, Luo He was like a rich prince of a family. On the other hand, it was Xiang Yun who had become a ruined family without any valuable possessions.

Xiang Yun carefully thought back. He couldn't find anyone from the younger generation of the Wind Cloud Kingdom, or the son of a marquis general or a border feudal lord. Who could possibly match up to the Luo He in front of him?

"It seems like he is not from the Wind Cloud Country." Xiang Yun made this decision in his heart.

Upon returning to the cave where the duo had been recuperating, Luo He once again sat cross-legged. However, she did not close her eyes. Instead, she stared at Xiang Yun with eyes as sharp as knives.

Seeing this, Xiang Yun immediately felt a little guilty. He thought that Luo He was blaming him for sneaking out and almost provoking a group of terrifying Cloud Beasts over.

This was indeed his responsibility, and in the end, he had still relied on Luo He to take the risk and save him.

When Luo He saw Xiang Yun's slightly remorseful gaze, the sharpness in his eyes slowly disappeared. In the end, he opened his mouth and asked.

"Why didn't you run towards the cave earlier?"

Xiang Yun shrugged helplessly. "I originally wanted to run into the cave, but I've already been targeted by these beasts. If I return to the cave, these fellows will definitely chase me back. What will you do then?"

The moment Xiang Yun got up to flee, he thought of how his actions would cause an innocent person to die. His body that had been rushing towards the cave suddenly stopped, then he fled in another direction.

He had already made up his mind. He would first lure these Cloud Beasts to another place, then swallow the Small Teleportation Pill before returning to the cave. This way, he could lead them further away so that they wouldn't discover the cave.

Upon hearing Xiang Yun's words, Luo He, whose expression had been solemn, trembled. Her expression changed slightly, and the latter's gaze towards Xiang Yun immediately softened a little.

"Next time, don't be so stupid!"

"Ugh …"

"I don't know either. How did the outside world suddenly turn into this? It was clearly a battle between the Jade-Eyed Red Flame Lion and that monster. How could so many Cloud Beasts die?"

Xiang Yun had been unconscious for three days in this cave, not knowing what was happening in the outside world. At this moment, his heart was still filled with doubts.

Previously, Xiang Yun had wanted to ask Luo He about this, but Luo He had not spoken to him at all. The two of them had only a pitiful exchange of words.

Hearing Xiang Yun's question, Luo He pondered for a moment before finally recounting what had happened during the three days Xiang Yun had been unconscious.

It was only then that Xiang Yun realized that the many cloud beasts that had gathered here had all come in search of the giant beasts and the Jade-Eyed Red Flame Lion's cloud crystal. As a result of this, a large-scale battle had occurred, leading to the scene of corpses littering the ground beneath the mountain.

"Humans really die for wealth, birds die for food. So many Cloud Beasts died for two Cloud Beast Crystals." Xiang Yun could not help but sigh in his heart.

"Haha, people die for money, birds die for food. That's true, but it's a mistake. At least for these cloud beasts, it's not true!"

"Hmm?" Xiang Yun looked at Luo He in shock.
