Chapter 457 Xiong Yu'an's All-or-Nothing Gamble
Chapter 457 Xiong Yu'an's All-or-Nothing Gamble
Xiong Yu'an turned around, and after confirming that the monster could not hurt him, he climbed up.
The largest gap is at the very top of Lashanpa's neck; if you don't get close, you can't accurately insert the Heartfire.
In particular, the heart fire must be very close to her; the farther away it is, the more difficult it is to control, and it will simply disperse.
This climb, risking our lives to get close, is purely a last resort.
Lashanpa twisted its head, opening and closing its mouth, trying to bite its own neck, and turned around anxiously and laboriously.
Xiong Yu'an was suddenly jolted, and he quickly gripped the ground tightly with both hands and stomped his feet firmly as waves of dizziness washed over him.
The monster's parts rattled and fell from a height. Xiong Yu'an closed his eyes tightly to keep out the dust, enduring the dull pain of being hit and the stinging pain of being scratched.
As soon as she felt the monster's movements had slowed down, she immediately started climbing again.
Suddenly, Lashan stopped and began violently shaking his neck from side to side.
The tremors were even more intense than before, causing the previously stable area to collapse, and Xiong Yu'an almost lost his grip.
I've only climbed halfway. If I keep swaying like this, I'll be trampled to death before I even reach the top.
You might as well bury me; at least I could crawl in and stab you to death.
A fleeting thought led her to a new approach to solving the problem.
Perhaps it's not necessary to climb to a high place.
Going deeper into the world might not be impossible.
Xiong Yu'an observed the moving joints in front of him. There was a small gap between the joints, just like a train carriage that kept bending left and right.
Only one person can pass at a time; the path twists, rotates, opens and closes, crowds, and scatters without any discernible pattern...
This is practically a multi-functional blender!
If you crawl inside, can you survive? Even if you survive, what about fractures and tears?
The soreness in her arm left her no time to think; Xiong Yu'an moved sideways toward the mezzanine.
In the instant she was exhausted, she stepped into the space.
There was no flat ground, only uneven patches of garbage underfoot, causing her to stumble and fall.
The extremely cramped space made it difficult for her to breathe, and the garbage was pressing in on her from all sides, burying her calves in just a few seconds.
Xiong Yu'an stopped swaying, but he could no longer move an inch.
If she doesn't move, these things will envelop her completely, turning her into a sandwich.
She used all her strength to quickly pull out one leg, and then grabbed it with both hands to pull out the other.
Xiong Yu'an didn't dare to delay and moved inward sideways.
Lashan easily sensed her location and suddenly raised his neck.
The long thorn that was originally stuck next to Xiong Yu'an quickly changed direction and shot towards her.
She was startled and quickly squatted down.
"Crack!" The long thorn grazed her shoulder, tore through her school uniform, and pierced her back, knocking down a layer of trash.
With rapid breathing, Xiong Yu'an struggled to crawl out from under the long spikes that provided cover.
There is hope...
She could already see the bright purple light, appearing and disappearing intermittently. At certain moments, the winding passage would straighten slightly, allowing her to see right to the very end.
The monster's neck straightened again, revealing a rare wide-open space ahead. She had to hurry, so she quickly stood up and ran forward.
"Crack!" Suddenly, a bulge appeared beneath her feet. Without thinking of retreating, she lunged straight forward.
A sharp, creaking sound came from above, and she turned around.
The spot where they had just stood suddenly snapped shut, as if two hydraulic presses had closed abruptly, turning the previously bulging garbage into thin sheets.
Xiong Yu'an's heart was pounding like a drum. She quickly got up. If she had stepped back just now... she would have been the one crushed.
Halfway there, halfway there! She gazed at the purple figure, estimating the distance.
Lashanpa seemed to sense a deadly crisis, went into a frenzy, suddenly raised its upper body, and then...
Slam it down hard!
"Boom!"
Water splashed everywhere on the sea surface, and the monster was hit by a massive earthquake.
Xiong Yu'an leaned back and quickly grabbed something nearby, but the next moment he was violently thrown into the garbage heap by the shock.
Before she could even get up, she felt the upward force again.
then……
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
During the continuous earthquake, Xiong Yu'an was almost completely dismembered, his hair was disheveled, and his body was covered with small wounds and bruises that were not visible because of his clothes.
The speed of climbing the mountain slowed down, and the vibrations caused many of the external parts to collapse, which had a significant impact on it.
Despite feeling dizzy, Xiong Yu'an slowly grabbed onto something to support himself and staggered forward.
Just...just a little bit more...
At the deepest point, it was like a cracked rock shining in front of you, illuminating the area with a deep purple glow.
"Sizzle!" Xiong Yu'an's inner fire gathered in her hand, forming a long knife.
"Crack!" The space in front of him suddenly shrank, like a crumpled piece of paper, and Lashan climbed back up his neck section by section.
Xiong Yu'an felt a sharp pain all over his body and was stuck in place.
The sudden and rapid compression felt like her legs and arms were being clamped by sharp pincers.
She struggled and pulled with all her might, but to no avail except for the pain of her muscles tearing.
The squeezing force is increasing, and the passage, which was once only wide enough for one person, has already shrunk by two-thirds and is still rapidly shrinking.
not good!
Xiong Yu'an stretched his right arm, which he could barely hold up, forward, with the tip of the knife still a full meter and a half away from the gap.
She gathered her inner fire once more and let it spread forward.
The blade tip slowly extended by half a meter until, with a soft "whoosh," the weapon, which still resembled a solid object, suddenly shattered into tiny sparks that fell to the ground.
That's not enough.
She can't control the flames once they reach a certain level!
Xiong Yu'an restored the longsword to its original state and then threw it.
"Crack!" The long sword landed half a meter in front of the crevice, turning into flames that scattered again.
Even keeping a certain distance from her is not an option.
It's still a meter short when it gets longer, and half a meter short when thrown.
Only half a meter!
Such a short distance feels like the ends of the earth.
The pain intensified, and Xiong Yu'an gritted his teeth, never having felt so unwilling to accept defeat.
After all this hard work, are we going to let it all go to waste?
She tried to reconstitute the longsword, but the result was the same.
Xiong Yu'an looked down at the fire burning in his chest, wishing it were a little stronger, a little more intense.
The flames burned quietly, without any change, only turning the dirty, disheveled clothes a faint golden hue.
She stared at the zipper that had slipped down and was swaying slightly, anger and sadness welling up inside her. So pathetic, and so useless...
She longed to reach out and, as usual, pull the zipper up to the bottom of the V-neck of her school uniform.
That was her subconscious action whenever she felt helpless, sad, or upset.
She stared at the V-shaped opening of her dress, and two seconds later, she suddenly looked up.
Xiong Yu'an raised his right hand again, and the long knife in his hand kept getting shorter and thicker, gradually curving in the middle and rounding at both ends.
A V-shaped flaming boomerang is gradually taking shape.
Her gaze was fixed on the crack, as if the surrounding environment did not exist.
In the moment when she was completely focused, she suddenly flung her hand away.
"Rustling!"
The boomerang spun into a fiery wheel, flew diagonally across the already extremely narrow passage, and embedded itself hard in the purple crevice that resembled rock.
"Crack!"
The flames burned fiercely!
The seemingly indestructible rock melted away like cream.
The garbage can suddenly shuddered and shook uncontrollably, its fine parts and tissues falling off one after another.
