"Maybe what you said does make sense. But if you only care about these principles, you won't get anything done."

"Whether it's dull or boring, I will experience it naturally when I hold this world in my palm."

"Until then, I won't be swayed by this kind of thing."

She raised her hand, and the flames turned into scattered meteors, smashing the magic that was bombarding her. The heat wave lifted her hair, and the veil that covered half of her face was blown up together. At that moment, Lid seemed to see the complete appearance of the Lingwu Lord, and the beauty of the lute finally came to light.

But it was only a brief moment, before Reed could see clearly, the Lingwu Lord had already rushed out towards the magic in front.

The gold and red clothes fluttered in the hot wind.

Lid followed again. The ultra-ancient magic coming from all directions seemed to have decreased a lot, but the danger increased instead of decreasing. The deeper you go, the higher the concentration of magic power becomes. The magic power with nowhere to vent is transformed into overwhelming elemental magic, turning the corridor into a sea of ​​fire and the empty room into an ice field. Mountains collapsed, thunder and lightning changed, torrential rain poured, lava rolled... Countless natural disasters concentrated in this small secret realm, as if to tear everything in the black fog into pieces.

The clothes of the Lingwu Lord were completely soaked, and Lid's shirt was torn into pieces in the thunderstorm. The rain kept flowing down his muscles, and his wet black hair stuck to his cheeks, but he had no time to care. Death urged him to keep moving forward. If he fell behind even a step, he might be swallowed by the natural disaster.

In the rainstorm, both Lid and Lingwu Lord reached their respective limits.

Lid lowered his head, supported his knees and took deep breaths. He felt that every breath of moist air was stuck in his lungs. His body was getting heavier and heavier, and even his consciousness was beginning to blur. Lingwu Lord was not much better. She was probably not as strong as Lid. At this time, she was leaning against a stone wall that was half destroyed by the thunderstorm. Her pale hands kept patting her chest, forcing herself to endure the pain and continue breathing.

I don’t know when the next natural disaster will come, nor do I know what dangers lie ahead.

Just now, when passing through a vast sea of ​​red-hot magma, Lid missed a step and almost turned into blood in the boiling magma. The Lingwu Lord pulled him up, but he also lost his balance, and the two of them almost died here together. At the critical moment, Lid supported himself on a stone that was not completely submerged in the magma to stabilize his body. He looked like he was doing push-ups with one hand and one foot. His nose tip was less than two centimeters away from the magma, and the bubbles of the magma burst and splashed on his face, making a sizzling sound.

The Lingwu Lord, who also fell, sat on Lid's tense back and subconsciously reached out to hold Lid's arm, the two of them pressed tightly together. She wanted to separate immediately, but her overly tense body couldn't muster the strength, and she maintained it for about twenty seconds, until Lid couldn't hold on any longer, then the Lingwu Lord carefully jumped away and pulled Lid up.

Dangerous scenes like this are everywhere, and it’s hard to tell who is saving whom along the way.

What made Lid a little emotional was that perhaps because he was deceived so badly by Ji Yingtian, Lingwu Lord attached great importance to promises. At first, he didn't know why Lingwu Lord risked his life to help him several times, and thought that Lingwu Lord finally began to care about the precious friendship of comrades, but soon found out that it was not the case.

When the two of them just woke up from the secret realm, she had promised Lid that she would bring him back to the human territory, dead or alive. So when he encountered a situation like magma where he would be killed without a complete body, Lingwu Lord would save him even at great risk; but if he encountered some disasters such as falling rocks and ice spikes, Lingwu Lord would just sit back and watch if he couldn't help.

Anyway, Lid is dead, as long as his body is intact, I can take him back -

Her idea was that simple.

The sound of rain was getting louder and louder. Lid raised his head and called out:

"Zhao Zhao."

Lord Lingwu raised his head with difficulty, regained some consciousness, and looked at Lid.

Lid laughed and said:

"I suddenly thought of something."

Lord Lingwu looked at him, neither having the energy nor the will to speak.

Lid said:

"You... have lived for hundreds of years, right? Should I call you my wife?"

He took a few breaths and added the last word:

"…Po?"

The Lingwu Lord's eyes looked somewhat unfriendly, but she no longer had the energy to get angry.

She knew very well that the reason why Lid was talking to her was because both of them had run out of energy. It was like a person who was stranded in a snowy mountain. If he stayed awake, he still had a chance of survival. Once he fainted, his body temperature would drop quickly and he would never wake up again.

He probably spoke to me because he saw that I hadn't caught my breath for a long time. Although both his tone and the content of the conversation made me feel a little uncomfortable.

Lid wiped the sweat off his face and coughed a few times in the heavy rain. He felt as if he was going to vomit out his heart, liver and lungs. His chest and abdomen were full of a sense of compression, as if an invisible hand was grabbing his internal organs. He shook his hair and asked again:

"I say. We have come so far, and I suddenly realized that I haven't asked you much about Clenus. Are you sure you can deal with it? I won't ask what method you use. I just want to know what that thing is. Is it round or square? What does it look like? How many eyes does it have? If I die, I can use this information to ambush it on the road to the underworld, or add its name to the Book of Life and Death."

Lingwu Lord looked at the smile on Lid's face and shook her head slightly. Her voice was a little hoarse:

"It is said to be a giant octopus. But its original body must have been destroyed long ago. There are still many human blood souls in the blood souls collected this time. I don't know what it will become."

41.Hands clasped together

The heavy rain poured down like a waterfall, and the distance between the two people gradually became closer, otherwise they would not be able to hear clearly what the other person was saying.

The Spiritual Lord briefly told Lid about the information he knew. It was basically that Clenus had much higher intelligence than humans, and his soul was as vast as the ocean, which would never run dry. Clenus could even materialize his soul into a special power. According to records, he usually had sixteen tentacles, but after his soul materialized, he could have hundreds. Mountains and rivers were nothing more than things that he could tear down with just a few tentacles.

Lid had actually heard about all this a long time ago. He knew that the Lingwu Lord must have concealed a lot of things, but he didn't ask any more. Even if he asked her, she wouldn't answer, so why bother? The two of them were just chatting to the point where it was just right.

A thunderclap sounded, and the rain became lighter, but the ground began to rumble again. The natural disaster caused by magic did not leave the two people more breathing space. The Lingwu Lord lifted the hair stuck to his forehead by the rain to both sides, rubbed his eyebrows hard, and said to Lid:

"time to go."

She paused, and made an exception to express her concern for Lid:

"Can you still walk?"

Lid put his hands on his hips, straightened his body with all his strength, stretched his neck, and said:

"Actually, I can't walk much. But a man can't say he can't do it, so I have to hold on."

Not sure if it was Lid's illusion, but he felt that the Lingwu Lord seemed to smile a little. She turned around and limped forward, saying:

"Me too. Just hold on a little longer."

Reed looked back and the rumbling sound became clearer.

He was stunned for a moment and suspected that he was dazzled.

In the pouring rain, the rocks on the ground were rising one by one and crashing into the sky. Because it was dark above his head, Lid didn't know how high it was, but no matter how high it was, there was always an end. After about five seconds, the rising ground directly smashed into the dome, and heavy rubble fell down.

Whether being carried by the rising rocks and crashed into the barrier of the secret realm, or being hit by the falling rocks, it is likely that they will be crushed to pieces. Lid used all his strength to continue running forward. His pants and shoes were soaked in water and were extremely heavy. The sweat just seeped out of his skin and was washed away by the rain. With the excessive humidity outside, the heat of the body seemed to be completely blocked in the pores, making people feel irritable for no reason.

Reed quickly caught up with the Lingwu Lord because her body was overdrawn even more seriously, and her gorgeous robe became even heavier after being soaked with water.

Reed grabbed her hand without saying a word and pulled her forward.

The sound of the rock breaking was clearly behind him, but it became increasingly faint in Lid's ears. He didn't even have the strength to turn his head to take a look at the current situation. His muscles had begun to stiffen, and his stomach was churning, and he might vomit at any time. He only used his last bit of strength to do two things: one was to run forward, and the other was to hold the hand of the Lingwu Lord.

No matter the past grudges or the opposing identities and statuses, all those things were forgotten at this moment.

The only thing to do is to survive.

Lingwu Lord was also somewhat confused, but fortunately someone was carrying her to run so that she would not collapse so quickly. Lingwu Lord used her remaining magic power to blow up the rocks that were hitting the two of them or the path that Lid had to pass. Even though Lid did not ask her to do this this time, there was more or less a tacit understanding between her and him.

The physical strength they had just recovered from a short rest was draining away at a faster rate. Although the two knew this, they had no way to stop it. Along the way, they first moved forward with the super ancient magic invented by the three tribes, and then struggled with the elemental magic of the natural disaster level. Any ordinary human master would have died here, but the two still persevered until now.

But it's almost reaching its final limit.

Finally, the rock under the Lingwu Lord's feet trembled, and it seemed that it was about to rise up at high speed, squeezing her into a pulp on the barrier above her head. At that moment, Lid seemed to have sensed something, gritted his teeth, and threw her forward directly. Lid's own shoulder made a clear sound of bone dislocation.

This action caused him to lose his balance, and he staggered. He was eventually caught up by the danger behind him and stepped on a raised rock.

Lord Lingwu fell to the ground and immediately raised his hand to grab Lid, but the distance between the two was too far.

She stared blankly at Reed being thrown high into the sky. Her veil fluttered slightly, and her lips opened slightly, but she didn't have time to say anything.

Fortunately, Lid only stepped on the edge of the rock, and the remaining rationality made him come to his senses and quickly rushed forward. From the time he made this decision to the time his body executed his idea, it took less than two seconds in total. But in these two seconds, the rock had risen dozens of meters. Lid's body drew a parabola in the air and fell heavily to the ground, with blood flowing from his nose and eyes.

He coughed violently, trying desperately to open his eyes, and struggled with his hands and feet to get up from the ground.

Lord Lingwu stood up in a rather embarrassed manner, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and walked towards Lid with difficulty.

She could have walked on her own, but if she left Lid alone, he would crash into the barrier above his head and be shattered to pieces. His body could not be recovered at all, which was inconsistent with the promise she made at the beginning. The Lingwu Lord's body was swaying, and he couldn't even run, but he still walked towards Lid facing the cracking ground. Several pieces of corpses fell from the sky and brushed against her body, scraping her arms and leaving bloody marks.

Reed covered his forehead and stood up with difficulty.

Both men moved very slowly, like toddlers compared to the rocks that came one after another in an instant.

Looking at the Lingwu Lord walking towards him, Reed smiled bitterly, raised his hand, and black flames exploded on the rock. He used the reaction force to crash into the Lingwu Lord's arms, and slid with her for dozens of meters away. Both of them rolled to the ground, covered in mud.

The rocks continued to rise with a rumbling roar, and heavy rain poured down amid the thunder and lightning.

Both men fell to the ground, their bodies exhausted to the point of being out of control.

Lid raised his hand, and his slightly trembling palm gently covered the back of Lingwu Lord's hand, and then held her hand tightly. It looked like a couple in a disaster holding hands to welcome the final destruction. It was a normal picture, warm but helpless and desolate.

No one noticed that when lightning flashed overhead, the complex magic patterns on Reed's arm lit up slightly.

Then, Lingwu Lord's eyes, which had been closed, suddenly opened again, and he looked calmly at the ground rising step by step. Rocks shot up into the sky one by one, and soon reached the two of them.

However, at this moment, a strong wind suddenly arose and the rainstorm was even more violent than before.

The rising rock wall slowly stopped. The last rock that rose from the ground was less than half a meter away from the two people.

Lingwu Lord closed his eyes again, letting him hold his hand, and said softly:

"What good luck... The direction of the flow of magic power has changed. The earth element has turned back into the water element. The danger is over and we are saved for now."

42. The Queen's Tenderness

Perhaps due to excessive physical exertion, the two men lay on the ground for a while longer even though the danger had been lifted.

The cold air seeped into her body, and the water level slowly rose. Lingwu Lord slowly climbed up from the ground, hesitated for a moment, turned her back, took off her red coat with gold threads, and wrung out the rainwater inside. Although she was still wearing a light yellow silk lining, it was tightly attached to her body after being soaked by the rain, revealing her exquisite figure.

This was the first time she took the initiative to take off her coat next to a man. Although there was no erotic scene, the nature of it was completely different. Even though the Lingwu Lord and Lid didn't seem to care at all, the atmosphere couldn't help but become a little subtle.

Lid looked at the deep darkness above his head, but because the two were too close, every subtle movement of the Spiritual Martial Lord inevitably fell into the corner of Lid's eyes. In order to ease the embarrassment, Lid asked a question he had always wanted to ask:

"When we were in Lingwu, I saw that not even a single snowflake could land on you in the heavy snow. How come you are now soaked like me?"

Lord Lingwu put on the clothes he had wrung out of water and replied:

"When the flames were at their peak, nothing could get close to me. But I consumed too much energy and became what I am now."

She slowly got up from the ground, turned to look at Lid, and said:

"This is not a place to stay for long. We never know when a new disaster will break out. How are you injured now? Can you still stand up?"

Lid took a deep breath and smiled helplessly:

"Let's give it a try. I don't even know how badly I'm hurt. I actually got some hidden injuries along the way. I could have suppressed them, but when I ran out of energy, a chain reaction started to appear."

He supported himself on the ground, trying to stand up like the Lingwu Lord, but suddenly his knees went weak and he fell backwards again.

In an instant, Lid felt that he was being held by a warm hand, and his body finally stabilized with the help of external force. Lid smiled and thanked the Lingwu Lord, who did not show any strange expression. He first let go of his hand, and then asked:

"Can't stand still?"

Reed tapped his knee lightly:

"It should be the fall when you were not prepared. A dislocated arm can be reattached, but if it is a broken bone, even if emergency treatment is done, there will always be some disharmony for a while."

Lord Lingwu stood there, looking at him quietly.

After a moment, Lingwu Lord expressionlessly raised one of his arms and put it around her neck. Her height was about the same as Lid's, so this action was equivalent to helping Lid share some of his weight, making his injured leg feel a little easier. The price was that the two bodies were tightly pressed together. Lid could feel that Lingwu Lord's soft and elastic body was only separated from his by a thin layer of clothing. Although her body temperature was not high, it was still warm compared to Lid standing topless in the rain.

Lid shook his head and said softly:

"Flattered."

Lingwu Lord also replied with four words:

"It's good to know."

Lid laughed, and as he laughed, his wound became more painful, and he began to cough violently again.

This time, it was Lid who took the first step forward, and Lingwu Lord matched his pace. It was not as difficult as imagined for the two to walk side by side, and Lingwu Lord also accommodated Lid's walking habits, no longer walking with big strides like before.

The violent storms under the sea were already very strange, but the scene before him was even more incredible.

No one knows what the future will be like. Maybe the two of them will fight each other, but this does not conflict with their temporary reconciliation. Not only because they have a common enemy, but also because they have been through life and death several times and something has been left in their hearts.

This is different from what Reed originally expected.

He originally thought that Lord Lingwu would soon forget the night when the two of them embraced each other last time, and that he and she would soon return to a false peace, but now it seems that this inexplicable atmosphere will continue for a while.

Maybe, it may last until I leave here.

"If there is another large-scale magic, will you have any way to escape?"

Lid asked. Although he felt that the Lingwu Lord had concealed something about Clenus, he should still tell the truth about the way to escape. The two of them were now on the same boat, so there was no need to lie at this time.

Lingwu Lord shook his head and said:

"If I had it, I would have taken it out just now. This plan was originally based on a single-person operation, so how could I bring so many unnecessary things?"

Lid sighed and said:

"Blame me, blame me. But if God gives me another chance to start over, I will still jump down with you."

Lingwu Lord asked:

"For your Yuxi City?"

Lid nodded:
