Qin Wu Yan's eyes swept across the four people, and with his discerning gaze, he naturally saw that they were all exceptional talents. If it were based on their true abilities, he feared that he would not be able to gain an advantage over them.
The Wàn Dú Mén has always practiced swordsmanship with a biased edge, and their strange and evil methods are numerous. At this moment, Qín Wú Yán is controlling this large group of dead giant ants, and his body is also covered in countless poisonous substances, yet he is not afraid at all, instead his expression remains unchanged. Looking at the scene, it seems that he has gained the upper hand.
Zeng Shu's mind was always quick-witted, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel a severe headache. Looking at the numerous ferocious giant ants with eerie faces, the stench assailed his nostrils. He whispered to the three people beside him, "What do we do now? Should we flee or fight?"
Li Kun furrowed his brow, but didn't say a word. In fact, with his usual personality, he would have never retreated at this moment. It was just that the fierce battle with the giant ants earlier had left him shaken. Although he had single-handedly killed hundreds of them, the endless swarm of monstrous creatures had overwhelmed him, leaving a lingering fear in his heart.
Fashang sank into silence, and Lin Jingyu suddenly spoke up: "I think we can fight. I reckon these dead locust giant ants are not being raised by humans, but are being controlled by some sort of demonic magic used by this demonic cultist. As long as we entangle this person, we can win with one battle."
Fa Xiang nodded and said: "Lin Shidi is right, you two..."
Zeng Shu thought for a moment and said: "Lin Shidi is right, and the four of us are facing him alone, but we still fled in defeat, which is also too shameful."
As the eyes of the three people turned to Li Xuan, Li Xuan was indeed the most outstanding talent in Fengxiang Valley in recent years. He had always been proud and arrogant, and if it weren't for Qin Wu Yan suddenly summoning countless giant ants from who-knows-where, he would have already clashed with Qin Wu Yan by now. At this moment, facing the gaze of the other three people, how could he lose face? He immediately declared: "Battle!"
Fa Xiang nodded immediately, and then said in a low voice: "Later we will divide into two teams. Trouble Li Shixiong and Zeng Shixiong to temporarily hold back these giant ants on the side, I and Lin Shidi will attack Qin Wu Yan together, how is it?"
The three of them nodded together.
They were discussing in the room, Qin Wu Yan stood outside but also thinking quickly. Earlier he had driven the giant ants to attack Li Xuan, but Li Xuan's Tao was too high and still beyond his expectations. With just one person's strength, he killed nearly a hundred of these thick-skinned, hard-boned, highly toxic giant ants. The other three people in the room looked like their Tao was not low either, especially that Fa Xiang from Tianyin Temple, whose reputation had grown extremely large over the years.
To say nothing of the rest, just look at this ordinary-looking halo in front of us. It implicitly contains the great power of Buddhism to subdue demons, and it actually makes the dead locusts leave the golden light circle on their own without being driven away. This cultivation is indeed not trivial.
He was worried about how to deal with the four of them, when suddenly a whistling sound came from the front. A flash of golden light appeared, and the four people rushed towards him together, while the giant ants on the side were also in a state of commotion.
Qin Wu Yan was not surprised, but delighted. He burst out laughing and with a flick of his left hand, a small black iron flute appeared. However, he didn't bring it to his lips to play, instead, he drew it across the air in a smooth motion. His left hand tapped several holes on the flute, and instantly, a low, mournful sound echoed through the air.
The people didn't seem to mind, but the countless giant ants underground seemed to have received some kind of command and suddenly became agitated, rushing towards Zhang Wuji and his three companions with bared teeth and claws.
Li Kun and Zeng Shu had anticipated this situation, and simultaneously moved forward, wielding their magical artifacts. In an instant, the artifacts' radiant glow sent the dozen or so giant ants that were charging at them flying, but Li Kun and Zeng Shu's arms also recoiled in pain from the backlash. Li Kun, having previously clashed with these giant ants, was not surprised by this turn of events, but Zeng Shu's face changed color as he thought to himself that these beasts were truly formidable.
The two of them exerted their divine might, and in an instant, they held back countless giant ants. Lin Jingyu and Fa Xiang transformed into a ray of light, shooting up like lightning, the Dragon-Slaying Sword transforming into a soaring emerald light that immediately pushed back the dark forest by several dozen feet, striking down towards Qin Wuyan's head.
This sword's momentum was so great that even Qin Wuyan furrowed his brow, thinking to himself that these righteous guys were indeed not easy to deal with. However, looking at his expression, there was no sign of panic, his left hand still dancing as he controlled the Demon Flute, emitting a strange humming noise, commanding countless giant ants to swarm and attack, while in his right hand appeared a dagger radiating clear light, barely blocking Lin Xingyu's sword.
Fǎ xiàng zài hòu miàn kàn zài yǎn lǐ, méi tóu yī zhòu, rèn chū zhè bǎ dāo shì zhēng shí nián qián qīng yún zhī zhàn zhōng, dú shén suǒ yòng de wàn dú mén qí bǎo, chén shēng dào: "zhǎn xiāng sī"
Qin Wu Yan was taken aback, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes. As he exchanged blows with Lin Jing Yu, he said, "Indeed, Master Fa Xiang's insight is beyond ordinary people, it is precisely 'Cutting Off Longing and Thoughts'!"
Fasheng suddenly appeared beside Lin Jingyu, but also didn't rush to take action. He calmly said: "It's a pity that such a divine soldier, with your talent, has strayed from the right path. Why not turn back now?"
Qin Wu Yan burst out laughing, his left hand dancing with the flute, his right hand wielding a dagger that shone brightly. Suddenly, he took five swift steps forward, his movements elegant and refined. As he moved, he recited: "The beauty is far away, longing is bitter, many thoughts are hard to express. Ten years of love can last a hundred years, but if I don't cut off my longing, I won't be able to bear it!"
His normally calm face suddenly floated with a faint purple aura, which intersected with the clear light emitted by the Azure Dragon Sword, and in an instant, the clear light surged, gradually suppressing the blue light of the sword. At the same time, a rarely seen proud expression appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "Master sees me sinking into the devil's path, but I laugh at Master being infatuated in his heart. In this world, all paths have their own principles, can it be that your shore is the shore, and my shore is the sea?"
Fǎ xiàng wēi wēi yī xiào, yě bù bǎ tā de huà fàng zài xīn lǐ, zhèng xiǎng chū shǒu xiāng zhù lín jīng yuè, hū zhī tīng zài qín wú yán shēn qián yī piàn qīng guāng zhī zhōng, lín jīng yuè de shēng yīn jiān dìng wú bǐ de chuán lái: "tiān shēng wàn dào, běn wéi yī tǐ, zhèng yì dào xīn, zhèng zài shì rén xīn jiān. nǐ shì mó, wǒ shì zhèng, wǒ biàn yào chú yāo xiáng mó!"
A clear whistle, the Dragon Slaying Sword sang loudly, a bright green light flashed, and it shot up into the sky. From a piece of clear light, it burst out of its body, and in an instant, the sword energy was everywhere, like rain, covering the entire sky and rushing towards Qin Wu Yan.
Qin Wu's eyebrows furrowed, unexpectedly this person was so formidable. At this moment, he only needed to use the Slash of Longing God Soldier to counterattack, and it would likely severely injure him again. However, facing the Dragon Slaying Sword that had no equal in its forward thrust and left all else in its dust, he himself found it difficult to parry, and could only dodge to the side.
At this point, his attention was divided, and the control of the giant ants in the back was temporarily neglected. Zeng Shu and Li Xun, who were desperately resisting behind, finally took a breath. Although it was only for a moment, these extremely ferocious giant ants rushed up fearlessly, and they were really worried.
"Hey, Master Fa Xiang! What's going on? You're still trying to enlighten them? Hurry up and take action, or we'll be eaten by these beasts! You'll have to recite the prayer for my soul if I die!"
Fa Xiang smiled wryly and didn't say anything else, watching Qin Wu Yan block Lin Jing Yu's wave after wave of attacks in the arena. He then loudly said: "Qin Shizhu be careful."
As soon as the words fell, the Wheel of Reincarnation flashed with golden light and flew past from the slant stab.
Qin Wu Yan's eyebrows furrowed, the Lin Jing Yu in front of him was already beyond his expectations, and now he added a Dharma form. He only heard him hum a sound, without seeing any movement, suddenly three black shadows flew out from the sleeve of his right arm, quickly separating, and rushing towards the Dharma form from three sides.
His face was stern and solemn, not daring to be careless. The wheel of pearls flew halfway, and in an instant, a brilliant golden light burst forth, swiftly blocking two black shadows, but one still managed to penetrate through the golden light.
Fa Xiang let out a "hiss" and suddenly pointed his fingers like a knife, with his pale palm stretched out flat, aiming at the flying black shadow, shouting: "Halt!"
That black shadow in mid-air suddenly shook violently, and after a moment, as if it had been heavily struck, it fell from mid-air. It was a small black snake with a triangular head, obviously highly venomous. After struggling and twisting on the ground for a few moments, it lay still, apparently dead.
Qin Wu Yan was taken aback, nodding in praise: " 'Ding Shen Tong'! Indeed worthy of being the first inheritor of Tianyin Temple, Master's moral integrity is high, I truly admire it. However, Master killing living beings so casually, I don't know if the Buddha would blame you or not?"
Fa Xiang had not spoken, but Lin Jingyu was already ahead, fiercely attacking and enveloping Qin Wuyan in a sheet of emerald light. With a cold smile on his face, he said: "You demons, who have killed countless lives and committed endless evil deeds, now dare to question others with a straight face? How shameless!"
Qin Wu Yan burst out laughing, dodging the Dragon Slayer Sword's unstoppable blade. The Slash of Longing Spirit flashed with a clear light as it counterattacked. At the same time, his right hand shook, and in an instant, seven or eight shadowy silhouettes flew out from his sleeve. They were brown, black, dark red, and scarlet yellow, all sorts of venomous creatures like scorpions and centipedes, illuminated by the treasure's aura. The crowd saw that they were all kinds of poisonous insects, swarming towards Fa Xiang, momentarily blocking him at a distance, unable to approach.
Everyone was stunned, thinking that the demonic cult's evil ways were indeed sinister. So many poisonous insects and monsters hidden on their bodies, yet they didn't fear being bitten back. Among them, Zeng Shu Shu, who was far away, thought of the most distant possibility: what if those sisters and junior sisters from the same sect saw these countless poisonous insects? Would they be scared to the point of going limp all over, unable to even lift their magical artifacts?
He had just had this thought, and his hand relaxed, but he was almost bitten by a giant ant at his feet. Fortunately, it only bit the edge of his shoe. This shock was not small, and he hurriedly concentrated to respond.
However, he and Li Xuan had to deal with these countless giant ants at the same time, and the pressure was really too great. In this short moment, the two of them killed hundreds of giant ants again, but these beasts seemed endless, still swarming in.
Zeng Shu and Li Kun exchanged a glance, both seeing the intention to retreat in each other's eyes. Zeng Shu was about to turn back and urge them on again, but his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint blue light flashing by in the depths of the forest.
He was taken aback subconsciously!
Qin Wu's eyebrows were furrowed, and almost at the same time, a thought of retreat emerged in his mind. The four people present today are really not easy to deal with. The dead Ze giant ant in front, which was originally thought to be invincible, was actually held back by those two people and couldn't take a step forward for half a day; And this Qingyunmen disciple's swordsmanship is so fierce that it's rarely seen in his life, from time to time he sees him use an unstoppable sword move, leaving no room for retreat, really headache.
But those poisonous substances didn't seem to be able to stop Fa Xiang for long. If they waited for this person to come over, the situation might already be out of control. Qin Wu Yan was the most favored disciple of the Poison God, and although he was young, he had exceptional decision-making abilities. At this moment, he made a swift decision, and with a flick of his right hand, three rare poisonous toads flew out and wrapped themselves around Fa Xiang. His right hand chopped down, and suddenly, a massive counterattack began, the ferocity of which even Lin Jing Yu couldn't withstand, forcing him to retreat several steps.
Taking advantage of this moment, Qin Wu Yan suddenly stood up and walked away from everyone, laughing loudly: "Let's stop here for tonight..."
He had barely finished speaking when he suddenly heard Zeng Shu-shu shouting loudly from the front, "Lu Shi-jie, quickly stop this person..."
Qin Wu Yan was shocked, and the corner of his eye suddenly saw a blue light rising from the darkness beside him. Although he was startled, he didn't panic, and Zhan Xiang Si had already appeared in front of the blue light, confident that even if this sword's power was greater, he could still withstand it.
In the dead of night, a blue glow emerged, but amidst the mournful howling wind, the entire world suddenly fell silent. From the other side of darkness, an icy feeling surged forth without warning, striking his right flank with a dull thud.
Although Qin Wu Yan had always been cautious, he still suffered a sneak attack in the blink of an eye and spat out a mouthful of blood, staining his chest red. At this critical moment, he mustered up his last bit of strength and suddenly released dozens of highly toxic creatures from his right arm, blocking everyone's path. As they flew backward, his angry voice echoed from afar, weak but shrill: "Gui Ji, you're ruthless! This grudge will be settled another day..."
The mutation suddenly occurred, and the people present were stunned for a moment. However, Qin Wuyan suddenly disappeared, and the countless dead locusts below lost control, but these ferocious creatures had always bitten and killed, and instead they rushed up even more fiercely. Zeng Shu and Li Xun could not withstand it, and in an instant, Fa Xiang and Lin Jingyu were also surrounded.
In mid-air, a blue light emerged, condensed slightly in the air, and suddenly, regardless of the crowd in the forest, it rushed into the darkness on the other side with a speed like thunder and lightning. Someone there let out a hum, and then a mysterious blue light burst forth, but without any intention to fight back, immediately turned around and left. The blue light, however, refused to give up, and immediately chased after.
Those two were so skilled in their Taoist practice that in the blink of an eye they left behind only a faint glow, and after another moment, even their shadows had disappeared.
In the arena, the law is equal for everyone. With a loud shout, they all flew up and left the ground. Those giant ants had no opponents and many of their companions died in vain. They must have been extremely angry, shrieking incessantly at the sky.
The Dharma Master didn't bother to care about these beasts, and hastily raised his eyes to search. Unexpectedly, in just a short while, the forest was pitch black again, and those two green and blue lights had disappeared without a trace, leaving everyone staring at each other in dismay!
After a while, Zeng Shu suddenly said in a low voice: "Is it him?"
Fa Xiang fell silent for a moment, his eyes flashing with complex emotions, but in the end he let out a sigh and said, "It should be him!"
The two of them looked at each other, and then simultaneously turned to look at Lin Jingyu. However, they only saw the young man standing in mid-air, his clothes fluttering in the night wind, making a rustling sound. His handsome face was expressionless, but his eyes were fixed intently on the dark forest, lost in thought.
The night is deep and dark.
The ancient forest was quiet, as if even the sound of insects chirping in the depths of darkness had suddenly disappeared.
Even the wind blowing through the forest sounds increasingly mournful and desolate, as if telling the sorrow of the dark night.
A flash of blue light flashed through the darkness, like a gentle passerby stepping into the darkness, but the blue light behind him suddenly appeared, and it was so dazzling that it rushed into the darkness, pushing back all the darkness, tightly chasing after the green light.
The green light darted back and forth among the trees, sometimes flying high, its speed getting faster and faster. But no matter what, it couldn't shake off the blue light behind it. Looking up from the darkness, the blue light seemed to be chasing with a reckless abandon, relentless in its pursuit, refusing to give up.
Who is it, sighing quietly in the darkness?
Who is it, opening his heart in the night?
Darkness surged from all sides and retreated, the wind rushed across and quickly disappeared, that familiar figure drifted in the night, echoing in whose eyes?
"Hiss!"
With a soft sound, the green light suddenly stopped and dissipated, revealing Gui Li's figure standing quietly at the top of a large tree.
Just a few feet away from him, the blue light and shadow stopped abruptly at his back. The Tianyue divine sword, which was dazzling even in the dark of night, was held in a pale hand, coldly pointing at him.
The night is deep and dark.
The wind is mournfully piercing.
Their clothes flutter gently in the wind.
The ghost slowly turned around and faced that face.
She is a woman in this world, so pure and beautiful that she cannot be compared to anything else. Her beauty has not been invaded by time, as if it would suffocate people, yet make them drunk at the same time.
She glared at him with a cold face, grasping her sword and pointing it at him!
The icy sword blade of Tianyue was just a foot away from him, and even his throat seemed to feel the chill.
And inexplicably, in the depths of my heart, there is a faint sorrow.
The wind blew through the treetops, and their bodies also swayed gently in the night breeze.
No one spoke, they just gazed silently.
The past decade's memories, suddenly, from the depths of my heart, slowly and quietly surfacing, flooding my mind.
Her hand, grasping the sword, was as fair and smooth as it had been ten years ago. When had she last held it in her palm?
He smiled faintly with a hint of bitterness and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Lu Xueqi didn't respond, not a single word escaped her lips, which were pale from being bitten too hard. Her figure, shrouded in the darkness of night, was desolate yet elegantly beautiful.
Ghostly, no, Zhang Xiaofan. On this moonless, pitch-black night, in front of this woman, he suddenly seemed to have returned to ten years ago, his body seemingly in the shadows, with an imperceptible tremble that was unknown to others.
"Why don't you kill me?" The beautiful woman said quietly, her icy gaze still fixed on him, the frosty sky dagger still pointing at him.
He gazed into her eyes, where there was such brightness, as if a silent flame.
He slightly lowered his head, and after a long while, he looked at his own shadow, looking at her gently swaying in front of the shadow, faintly saying: "Ten years ago, on the Jade Clear Palace, why didn't you unconditionally protect me, speak for me?"
Lu Xueqi didn't say a word, only her mouth corners slightly twitched, the hand grasping the sword was so tight, as if afraid of something.
In those bright eyes, whose figure is flickering?
Zhang Xiaofan!
Has it really remained unchanged? Hasn't anything changed in these ten years?
She stared blankly ahead, biting her lip, keeping herself icy cold, and making sure her gaze didn't blur.
But whose heart is beating like this, fiercely throbbing in the long-frozen heart, that gentle warmth which has been silent for a long time, quietly wandering in countless deep nights, suddenly bursts into flames and burns on my chest!
On the lips, there was a faint bitterness, a subtle moisture.
Her hand holding the sword slowly fell down.
She raised her head and gazed up at the sky.
The wind blew through her soft and beautiful hair, sweeping across her pale cheeks.
It seems like it's starting to rain again in the sky?
