When I was supposed to be slaying the dragon, I accidentally started cultivating immortality

What is the maximum speed at which a human can run?

In Old Tang's mind, the record currently known to the world for this limit should be 9.74 seconds for 100 meters, which is close to 10.27 meters per second. The person who set this record is Jamaican sprinter Asafa Powell.

Old Tang didn't know if anyone would break this record in future sports games, but he was very sure that his current sprint speed had far exceeded the world record.

The radius of the field he expanded with his own abilities is about thirty meters, and the boundary of the field is about twenty meters away from the sarcophagus where Mai Shutoku is hiding. This adds up to half a hundred-meter runway, but it is full of gravel and potholes. The ground is not as suitable for running as the runway.

And the time it took him to cross the half of the 100-meter runway was never more than three seconds!

Almost as soon as the first second ended, the boundary of his domain had already enveloped the sarcophagus. The body of the small corpse guard, who was originally very close to the sarcophagus, instantly twisted with the force of the forward movement with the foot on the ground as the fulcrum and the center of the circle. Turning one hundred and eighty degrees, a small piece of ground beneath the clawed foot that was the fulcrum of the circle was rubbed away, and then he ran wildly in the opposite direction to Old Tang.

After drinking the potion, Old Tang's speed has been greatly increased. However, the corpse guard is after all an alchemy puppet made from the body of a dragon. Even if the corpse guard's blood level was not high during his lifetime, he is still an alchemy puppet. The alchemy puppets made from pure-blooded dragons after death were still far superior to Old Tang in terms of physical quality.

The cheetah's ultimate speed is 32 meters per second. Old Tang expected that his running speed could reach 20 meters per second, and the speed of the small corpse guard was almost twice that of him. When he ran to the edge of the sarcophagus, the small corpse guard had already Standing at the door again.

He looked down at Shutoku Mai, who was half crouching in the sarcophagus. Shutoku Mai raised her head to look at him. She was still holding a small sword less than half a meter long in her hand, and her body was about to cut out Iai - taking the alchemy prepared by Su Enxi. After taking the potion, her strength has also been greatly improved, and she may not be helpless in the face of a small corpse guard.

If it weren't for the fact that the Kodachi in his hand was of relatively average quality as an alchemy weapon, and its complete length was not as long as the hilt of a naginata, there would be no need to hand over the task of dealing with the two corpse guards to Old Tang.

"You don't have to worry about me." Seeing Old Tang rushing over to save her, Mai Shutoku shook her head and said, "Although I don't dare to say that I can beat that corpse guard, at least I won't be taken down by it in a short time. .”

She was confident in saying this. After taking an alchemical potion that could stimulate dragon blood in a short period of time, her speech spirit "Mingzhao" temporarily evolved into a higher-order "Vajra Realm", although she lost her invisible body. It has the ability to form a highly defensive barrier around the body.

Even if it cannot make her invincible, at least she will definitely not be defeated by a small corpse guard in just a few moves - unless it can release a high-risk word spirit with sequence number 89 or above.

But Corpse Guards, like Deadpool, cannot release word spirits. Even if they were pure-blooded dragons in life and had high-risk word spirits at their fingertips, they would still have to fight with their bodies when they were made into alchemy puppets after death. Even if they were noble second-generation species, Even after being made into a corpse guard, he still couldn't release even a low-level "blazing sun" speech spirit.

The key to "word spirit" is "spirit". The little remaining intelligence of Deadpool and Corpse Guard is not enough for them to release the word spirit. Instead, they are some living alchemy weapons. Even if they are not alive, because of The "spirit" is powerful enough to still allow the user to release powerful speech spirits.

"These two corpse guards seem to be afraid of my domain," Old Tang thought while maintaining the domain of speech spirit. "As soon as my domain approaches them, they will avoid it."

"This small corpse guard rushed towards me after you left the sarcophagus, and the large corpse guard not only did not attack you after you left the sarcophagus, but instead stayed away from you," Mai Shutoku said thoughtfully, " Are they really unwilling to approach this sarcophagus because of some reason, as we two guessed before? Or are they actually from the beginning..."

"Avoiding me?"

Old Tang answered.

Mai Shutoku's meaning was already coming out. Although he was not a very smart person, he had been able to gain some fame by hanging out on the hunter website for several years. Naturally, he was not stupid either. He immediately realized what Mai Mai Shutoku meant.

But he is still a little unconfident: "If they are afraid of my newly awakened ability, I can barely understand it, but before I awaken this ability, they don't dare to get close to this sarcophagus... I can't help it. Awakening the ability, they are already afraid of me, right?"

"It's not impossible," Mai Shutoku said. "Although the corpse guard has died and almost no thoughts remain, he was a pure-blood dragon after all. With the vitality of a dragon, as long as he can still move, even if his brain is completely rotten, his body will not be able to survive." There will be some remaining instincts, maybe they instinctively judge that you are not easy to mess with before you awaken."

"The ability you awaken is called the spirit of speech. This ability does not come out of thin air, but is sleeping in the dragon's blood in your body," Mai Shutoku explained. "Theoretically, a hybrid can only have enough blood and receive appropriate stimulation. , the speaking spirit will awaken. Even if the speaking spirit has not yet awakened, it does not mean that it does not exist."

"So the two corpse guards noticed that I was not easy to mess with before I woke up... No, if you think about it carefully, it seems that the other monsters also deliberately avoided me, but we didn't think about it at all at the time. That’s all.”

After carefully recalling his experiences along the way, Old Tang suddenly realized that although those monsters scared him badly and almost wiped out his teammates, they never took the initiative to attack him. Could it be said that every time he was surprised, he was not surprised? The danger or danger is not actually because of his luck, but because the monsters themselves don't want to attack him? !

Old Tang suddenly remembered a Chinese saying he had learned before, which is to beat a wolf with a hemp stalk - to be afraid of both sides.

No way?

Old Tang couldn't believe it. Apart from being physically stronger and braver than the average person, there seemed to be nothing superhuman about him since he was a child. He could neither see through nor fly, nor could he release heat vision. However, he actually had hidden abilities. Potential to scare off monsters more than two stories tall?

"If this is really the case," Mai Shutoku couldn't hide her shock, "your bloodline may be ranked among the top two among all the hybrids I have seen, and it may even be the first."

"No way? You said before that we are a mixed race with dragon blood in our body. It's already hard for me to believe it. Now according to your opinion, I am still a mixed race with a high proportion of dragon blood? Then why don't I grow Scales or wings or something?"

"Probably because your bloodline is relatively stable. Although there are not many mixed-race species with high and stable bloodlines, there are still some," Mai Shutoku guessed, "You have not awakened the word spirit before. In addition to not being stimulated enough, the bloodline Too stable may also be a reason. No, now is not the time to talk about this, let’s think about how to run first!”

"How about I try again? If these two corpse guards are really afraid of my ability, oh no, the realm of speech and spirit, then there's no problem for us to just walk out in a big way!"

Old Tang held the naginata and turned around and walked towards the large corpse guard. Mai Shutoku jumped out of the sarcophagus and followed closely behind.

Following Old Tang's footsteps, the domain once again enveloped the large corpse guard. It stood next to the stone platform. Although it no longer retreated, it made a roar.

Its vocal cords and other vocal organs have long since decayed. Although it roared, it could only make a "whooshing" sound, which was the sound of air flowing in and out of his lungs and chest through the trachea.

Even though it couldn't express its emotions with roaring sounds, Old Tang and Mai Shutoku still saw uneasiness and fear in its movements.

"It seems really afraid of you."

Even though she was mentally prepared, Mai Shutoku still felt a bit magical.

"But it's not retreating."

Old Tang took two more steps forward. The large corpse guard was shrouded deeper in the domain, but there was no tendency to withdraw from the domain.

"Zi Shu Shu, Zhi Shu, you have to guard something to be called 'Zi Shu', right? Otherwise it can't be made for decoration," Mai Shutoku pointed at the Milky Way Pot in the center of the stone platform, "This one The Corpse Guard's mission is obviously to guard the Galaxy Pot, and it was probably made into an alchemy puppet for this purpose, so naturally it will not retreat."

"This is troublesome," Old Tang was very distressed. "If I go up to get that pot, it won't attack me, right?"

Mai Shutoku shook her head: "I can't be sure, but it's very possible. After all, the purpose of its creation is probably to protect the Milky Way Pot. If you don't touch the pot, it won't fight you, but if you try to get that thing , maybe it will die immediately.”

Mai Shutoku didn't think there was anything wrong with Old Tang's idea of ​​risking his life to fight for the Pot of the Galaxy. Alchemy tools of this level could be ranked in the highest echelon in the entire mixed race world in terms of rarity. No matter how big the risk was for it, The risks are worth it.

Not to mention Old Tang, Mai Shutoku was moved and was even considering whether to discuss with Old Tang. If she could get the pot, she would buy it from Old Tang with a lot of money.

Anyway, potato chips have plenty of money. For an alchemical treasure of this level, even if you spend tens of millions of dollars to buy it, you will still make a profit. This thing must be kept as a heirloom in any mixed-race family, even if it is as mysterious and powerful as China's mixed-race families "Nuwa" and "Sui" will probably treat it as a treasure after getting it.

Normally, this kind of priceless treasure is bartered. If you can buy it with just a pile of currency, you will definitely make a lot of money.

Mai Shutoku was about to discuss it with Old Tang, but Old Tang suddenly sighed.

"Then we should go back. Although treasures are good, life is more precious." Old Tang held the naginata upside down. "Anyway, even if we go out empty-handed with nothing, we can still get fifteen thousand from our employer." Thousand dollars. On the way out, let's pick up some antiques such as stone carvings and stone walls and take them out. Maybe we can sell them to someone who knows how to make a profit. The things here should be antiques from a long time ago. You can make a lot of money.”

Mai Shutoku couldn't help but widen her eyes and pointed at the Milky Way Pot: "Such a treasure is right in front of you, why don't you just say you don't want it?!"

"This thing is very precious at first glance. It would be a lie to say that you don't want it, but I also said that although the baby is good, life is the most important thing, so I can only reluctantly give it up," Old Tang's face was written all over He felt distressed, but his tone was firm, "There is always a chance to make money while you are alive, but you will have nothing when you die."

"...It makes sense," Mai Shutoku calmed down a bit and looked at the giant creature that was more than two stories tall in front of her. "It's really a waste of money and life to snatch things from it."

"Stop looking, let's go," Old Tang sighed, covered his eyes, turned around, and walked towards the door, "I can't get it anyway, and the more I look at it, the more distressed I feel."

Mai Shutoku sighed, and was about to follow Old Tang's footsteps and leave first, waiting to think of another way out, when the Milky Way Pot in the center of the stone platform suddenly began to tremble violently.

In the sight of Mai Shutoku, Old Tang suddenly turned to look at the Pot of the Galaxy, his expression and tone full of surprise: "What?! You want to come with me?!"

Mai Shutoku was confused, but the Milky Way Pot on the stone platform flew up out of thin air and crashed directly into Old Tang's hand.

The next moment, the corpse guard's huge body, which was more than two stories high, rushed towards them like crazy. He was less than thirty meters away in an instant, and a huge shadow enveloped Old Tang and Mai Shutoku.
