Chapter 222 Breakthrough
The fatigue of the body, the numbness caused by toxins, and the pain of wounds all over the body all disappeared at this moment.
What replaced it was an unprecedentedly powerful energy that quickly spread throughout the body with the beating of the heart.
Du Jiujiu felt as if she had endless power. The long knife that was a little difficult to swing now became as light as nothing in his hand.
"Jiujiu, you...!" Both Wei Qingqing and Hu Xiaoyun looked in disbelief at Du Jiujiu, who was covered in blood and dying just now, but now he was holding a long knife and standing on the back of the cat, his eyes like a torch.
"Meow~!!"
Xiaobai didn't care so much. Hearing Du Jiujiu's voice, he immediately obeyed the instructions excitedly, turned around quickly, and ran back limping.
However, before Xiaobai could run a few steps, Du Jiujiu suddenly disappeared on his back.
The next moment, a few meters away, a slender figure suddenly appeared, and then disappeared again into the blue sky and daylight.
At this moment, Du Jiujiu felt that her body was light and weightless. From a distance of several hundred meters, Du Jiujiu could not sprint with all his strength in the blink of an eye.
Black swarms of mantises were still flying in the air, and the air was filled with the strong smell of blood.
Looking at everything in front of her, Du Jiujiu seemed to have a power guiding her in her mind.
She subconsciously stretched out her left hand and pointed her palm at the mutated mantis flying in the sky.
An unfamiliar energy began to slowly gather toward his left hand, and the surrounding light seemed to dim in an instant.
A strong attraction suddenly appeared in the palm of Du Jiujiu's left hand.
The first ones to bear the brunt were these mutated mantises flying in the air. They didn't even understand what was happening, and were sucked backwards by the powerful suction force.
“Swish, swish, swish!!”
A series of sword lights flashed through, and thick layers of praying mantis corpses were piled up under Du Jiujiu's feet.
After realizing something was wrong, the insect swarm began to become commotion.
Like soldiers who had received orders one by one, the mantises turned around almost at the same time, waving their sharp blades, and rushed straight towards Du Jiujiu.
However, in the face of the powerful suction and sharp blades, the neat team soon became fragmented.
When the number of dead mantises continued to soar like a rocket, the remaining mantises couldn't help but slow down.
One, five, ten...
Under the overwhelming pressure, more and more mantises began to develop a fear of death, and they flapped their wings one after another to escape from this Shura-like human being.
However, no matter how hard they tried, it was just a futile struggle as if they were stuck in a swamp.
All this happened in a flash of lightning. Hu Xiaoyun and Wei Qingqing sat on Xiao Bai and stared blankly as Du Jiujiu used some unknown method to gather the mantises together, and then chopped the black mass into corpses.
When the corpses of the mantises were piled up into a hill, An Cheng was finally revealed.
Looking at the crimson-soaked figure in front of him, Du Jiujiu's eyes instantly became blurry.
The fine short hair was soaked with blood and stuck to the scarred face one by one. The long limbs and exposed parts were all cut to pieces. The only place that was not in such an embarrassing state was only covered by the bird feather vest.
There are only a few shallow scratches on the body.
An Cheng's body was still standing upright, but through the horrible layer of blood, Du Jiujiu saw that her eyes were hollow, and her usual look was gone.
"An Cheng!!" Du Jiujiu quickly swung his sword and killed the last few praying mantises, and rushed towards An Cheng without hesitation.
However, when Du Jiujiu approached An Cheng, she looked as blank as a puppet, holding up her broken body and using her remaining instincts to control the sword and whip to attack any creature that came close to her.
"An Cheng, I am Jiujiu!!"
Du Jiujiu turned sideways to avoid the whip, rushed forward and hugged An Cheng.
"Nine...nine..."
An Cheng's gloomy eyes suddenly flashed with a faint light, and the corners of her mouth moved upward slightly. Her whole body seemed to have dropped all its defenses at this moment. When her vision went dark, she fainted completely.
The nostrils were filled with the strong smell of blood. After so much blood, Du Jiujiu didn't even dare to think about how much blood was left in An Cheng's body at this time.
She picked An Cheng up in her arms and rushed towards him like Xiaobai, her eyes red.
"Qingqing! Hurry!" Du Jiujiu put An Cheng on Xiaobai's back and raised his head to meet Wei Qingqing's panicked eyes.
"Stop her bleeding quickly!!!"
"Okay, okay!" Wei Qingqing was also frightened by An Cheng's bloody appearance and was a little at a loss.
After Du Jiujiu reminded her, she quickly leaned down and put her hands on An Cheng's body to stop her bleeding.
An Cheng's physique has always been very good after evolution. Although it is not comparable to pure warriors like the power type, it is still much stronger than ordinary elemental power users.
Therefore, although the wounds on An Cheng's body are very dense, most of the relatively shallow wounds have begun to heal and are no longer bleeding outwards. There are only a few deep wounds on the arms and thighs that are still bleeding.
Seeping outward.
Wei Qingqing's hand covered the deepest wounds. A blue light came from Wei Qingqing's palm and shrouded the wounds in a glittering way.
Within a few breaths, the wound gradually stopped bleeding, but whether it was due to too much blood loss or too much consumption, An Cheng was still unconscious.
Hu Xiaoyun carefully wiped away the dried blood stains on An Cheng's face. Against the pale face, the slender wounds on An Cheng's face looked particularly conspicuous.
Du Jiujiu looked at the wounds on An Cheng's face, feeling an indescribable discomfort in her chest.
No matter how strong and careless An Cheng is in normal times, she is still a girl, and having so many scars on her handsome face makes people look very unbearable.
"An Cheng, you must be well..." Du Jiujiu leaned over An Cheng and murmured, feeling terrified in her heart.
In the critical moment of life and death just now, An Cheng must have been determined to die in order to leave the hope of life to them.
If he hadn't suddenly awakened another power at the last moment, An Cheng would probably be a cold corpse at this time.
Not bad, not bad...
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the so-called dual-attribute superpower, and he successfully awakened at the most critical moment and saved his most important companion.
Originally, Du Jiujiu thought that she had given up her obsession with supernatural powers.
But at this moment, she realized that she had never really let go from beginning to end.
Today, Du Jiujiu is really happy that she can awaken new abilities, whether it is for herself or her companions.
