Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"But what Kailin said is right. According to common sense, there should be elemental disorders or abnormal vegetation in places where monsters gather, especially monsters that have just built nests. They will leave some traces, but there is nothing unusual here." Tianlang speculated.

"Could it be that the traces of the monster were deliberately hidden?" Zi Xuan asked.

"It's entirely possible." Qiu Hong nodded and turned around. "When Leng Yue and I were reading a textbook about monsters before, we saw that some highly intelligent monsters would deliberately forge and conceal their whereabouts in order to hide themselves."

"But the mutant monsters are so crazy, are they really that intelligent?" Karen asked.

"Don't underestimate these monsters. They may be crazy and bloodthirsty, but that doesn't mean they're stupid." Tianlang said, folding his arms. "The changes aren't just superficial. Just like when we encountered the Skeleton Crystal Beast, we suffered a lot back then."

As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately remembered when they first set foot in Linglang, hundreds of mutated monsters surrounded them on the mountain road. They cooperated with each other and had a clear division of labor. It was at that time that Kailin's off-road vehicle was blown into pieces by the crystal crocodile.

"In short, be careful and don't be fooled by appearances. Even a tiger, even if it has lost its teeth, still has enough strength to beat you to death." Tianlang lowered his voice, glanced around vigilantly, and then continued to move forward.

"Is that so? Oh, that's not right. Is it my illusion? Why does Tianlang seem so reliable today?" Kailin asked with her hands on her hips.

"Isn't it good?" Mo Yan spread his hands and shook his head, then followed Tianlang's steps.

"Well, that's true..."

Continuing forward, they arrived at a relatively open area. At this time, Tianlang stopped again and looked around.

"Strange, not only are there no footprints, there are not even any scratches, and there is nothing unusual along the way. Could it be that the monsters have all hidden in the mountains?" Tianlang speculated again.

"Is the information wrong?" Zi Xuan asked.

"That's impossible. The young man in the rice field did mention that monsters had entered Qihua Mountain. And judging from his attitude towards guarding the rice field, he doesn't seem to be lying." Qiu Hong analyzed calmly.

"Anyway, I think we should rest here for a while. If we suddenly encounter monsters on the road, we won't have the physical strength to handle it." Tianlang turned around and said.

Zhao Heng nodded: "I agree. It's more important to preserve our strength."

"Then..." Karen put her hands on her hips, turned around and walked to a stone. Just as she was about to sit down, the stones on the ground suddenly shook.

"Oh no, everyone, scatter quickly!" Qiu Hong shouted loudly.

Kailin was stunned, and before she could react, Tianlang pulled her over with a space rift. The next second, a huge crystal scorpion suddenly broke out of the ground where she was sitting.

"Skeleton Crystal Beast?" Mo Yan drew his sword and asked vigilantly.

Everyone quickly dispersed to form a battle formation. The crystal scorpion's shell reflected a strange rainbow light in the sunlight, and its tail stinger was condensed with visible lightning energy.

But it wasn't over yet. After the crystal scorpion came out, many skeleton crystal beasts and mutated monsters continued to pour out from the surroundings and surrounded everyone in a blink of an eye.

"There are so many?" Qiu Hong released the elemental power of thunder, and a long-handled double-edged battle axe appeared in his hand.

"It seems that these monsters have been paying attention to our actions since we entered the mountain." Tianlang said as he summoned the sickle.

At this moment, Kailin became impatient: "Don't explain now, let's solve the problem first!"

Leng Yue smiled slightly, and the blood-colored elemental power condensed into two scimitars, one orange and one red, in his hands.

"Sister Qiu Hong, now is the time for us to show our strength!"

"Please rest assured, leave this to us!" Qiu Hong responded.

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Yue had already rushed into the enemy group. His two swords drew a brilliant arc, and the crystallized shells of the monsters shattered like thin paper wherever he passed.

Qiu Hong held her battle axe horizontally, the blade entwined with the hissing lightning snake. She spun the axe violently, instantly shredding all the oncoming monsters into pieces.

At this moment, Tianlang stood there, his eyes widening as he looked at the one before him: "Is this... really just the combat level of someone who was born three days ago?"

Zi Xuan nodded: "It seems that Ye Lan is right. It seems that we really don't need to worry about their safety."

"Having said that, there are so many monsters, we can't get out if we just rely on them." Kailin said, holding two guns.

"That's right, let's help too." Mo Yan drew his sword and joined the battle. "Qiu Hong, Leng Yue! Try to open a gap first!"

"understand!"

The two responded at the same time.

Leng Yue's two swords suddenly crossed into a cross, and the blood-red blade light cut through the monster tide like a crescent moon. Qiu Hong took the opportunity to plunge his battle axe into the ground, and the lightning snake rushed into the enemy group along the crack, blasting a charred tunnel.

However, just as everyone rushed towards the gap, two crystal tigers suddenly swooped down from both sides. They curled up their bodies and spun rapidly in the air, like two blood-dropping darts, blocking everyone's path.

"careful!"

Qiu Hong clenched the battle axe and chopped down fiercely, but the crystal tiger changed its trajectory the moment it landed. What followed was the sudden attack of the crystal snake. It suddenly emerged from the ground and locked Qiu Hong's body with its slender body.

"Sister Qiu Hong!"

Leng Yue swung his two swords, attempting to cut the crystal snake, but was stopped mid-sentence by Lie Yu, a drop from the Crystal Vulture in the air. Following closely behind was the noose of the Crystal Scorpion from the beginning.

The crystal scorpion burst out of the ground, spinning at high speed, its tail stinger splitting into countless lightning chains, blocking Leng Yue's movement space like a spider web. At the same time, the crystal tiger pounced on the bound Qiu Hong again, its fangs pointing directly at her throat.

puff-

A silver light suddenly cut into the battlefield, and the white-robed man's spear tip accurately pierced the crystal tiger's throat. He swung his spear, and the crystal tiger's body was thrown to the side, and the crystal snake was instantly cut into several pieces.

"Mr. Hualong!" Everyone was surprised and happy.

Hualong smiled slightly, then greeted everyone: "Oh, what a coincidence, seeing you again."

Yes, what a coincidence... Mo Yan was just about to say this when suddenly, another crystal scorpion broke out of the ground from behind Hualong.

"careful!"

However, Hualongtou didn't turn back, but pierced the crystal scorpion's head with a shot. With a sharp roar like a dragon's roar, the crystal scorpion was instantly blown into countless pieces.

"This is a really warm way of greeting." Hualong shook off the crystal chips on the tip of his gun and winked at everyone.

"So cool! No, this isn't the time to talk about this!" Karen whistled and then shook her head violently.

"Don't worry, I'm not the only one here." Hualong said with a smile, holding the gun horizontally.

At this moment, a purple wave suddenly rose among the monsters. When the purple mist exploded among the monsters, a petite figure waving a sickle appeared among the monsters.
