The battle continues.
Gu Xu didn't know these messy thoughts in Shi Xiaohan's mind.
He stared closely at Hu Yun, who was standing in front of him with a knife, with a solemn expression.
The physical strength of "Ghost Warrior" is truly extraordinary.
If it were an ordinary monk, under such a violent impact, even if he could barely save his life, his skin and flesh would be torn and his orifices would bleed.
But Hu Yun seemed unscathed.
His muscles and bones seemed to be harder than the bluestone tiles on the ground.
"It's a bit tricky." Gu Xu thought as he used "Qiankun" again.
"Qiankun" is the authority to control space.
With it, Gu Xu can tear apart space, build passages, and teleport like a strong saint just by relying on the fourth level of cultivation.
According to the book, in the gaps in space, there are terrifying turbulences of time and space, which can easily twist powerful monks into pieces.
"It may be difficult for me to directly break through Hu Yun's physical defense with magic," Gu Xu thought in his mind, "but I can tear apart the space where he is and use the space chaos to Use the power of the flow to deal with him."
As the real energy in the body was rapidly consumed, Gu Xu's eyes once again turned into indigo, and at the same time, countless thin gray-black lines appeared in the air, like the surface of a calm lake. Ripples rising up.
Compared to Zhao Yan's Fire-Easing Spear, these black lines are much inferior in terms of light and shadow effects and momentum. You must observe carefully to discover their existence.
But the moment they appeared, Hu Yun instinctively felt a little nervous.
He used his body skills and quickly retreated.
His intuition told him that if he was touched by these spider web-like threads, his strong body as a "ghost servant" would be easily cut.
Zhao Yan couldn’t help but look strange.
Because she could clearly see that wherever the thin black lines passed, whether it was a thick brick wall or the branches of trees, they were all cut neatly, revealing smooth cross-sections.
The so-called "cutting iron is like clay" is nothing more than that.
"This should be a new technique he mastered after breaking through the realm," Zhao Yan thought silently.
She was just glad that Gu Xu did not use this trick to deal with her in the "Dragon Secret Realm", otherwise she would have dealt with it even more awkwardly.
Hu Yun’s dodge was obviously expected by Gu Xu.
He was calm and his eyes moved slowly along the route that Hu Yun was avoiding.
Under the pull of his will, the thin black threads rapidly extended in all directions, weaving into a giant net. Hu Yun seemed to have turned into an insect, scurrying up and down between the insect nets.
"Ghost attendants have weaknesses," Gu Xu thought silently in his mind while manipulating the space cracks like a painting. "Not only do they possess the true energy power of monks, they can also use it like normal monks. Spells, and they are stronger than ordinary monksA much wider body.
“But because they were controlled by the Ghost King of Mangshan and lost their independent consciousness, they did not have the ability to learn and comprehend the Tao. They could not advance to a higher realm, nor could they decipher the Tao of others.
"For example, Hu Yun, although he has retained his former Dharmakaya, but in the face of my power of the universe, he cannot suppress and crack it from the level of rules. He can only avoid it or bear it forcefully. .
"This may be my chance to defeat him."
Thinking of this, he turned to look at Zhao Yan beside him and asked, "Miss Zhao, can I borrow your true love?" "Yuan Yiyong"
"Lend me my true essence" Zhao Yan felt a little surprised.
She once learned in a book that there are some evil methods that can forcibly extract other people's true energy for their own use.
However, this was the first time that Zhao Yan saw Gu Xu politely requesting to "borrow" true energy from others.
While Gu Xu continued to manipulate the space cracks, he used his spiritual consciousness to explain to Zhao Yan that he had made some small changes to the "God-Inviting Curse", which could make the object of "borrowing power" From a god in the sky to another monk, as long as the monk nodded in agreement when he recited the incantation.
"Of course, if you can't trust me, you can choose to refuse," Gu Xu added, "After all, after lending the true energy, you may lose your combat effectiveness in the next period of time."
Zhao Yan pursed her lips slightly and fell into thought.
According to her past style of doing things, she has always been obsessed with keeping the outcome firmly in her own hands. In the words of Gu Xu in his previous life, he would rather lose standing than be a fool who wins lying down. Son, place your hopes entirely on others.
But she also has the self-knowledge that facing a "ghost servant" with the power of the sixth realm, she may be able to fight equally, but she lacks the key means to win.
As an out-and-out warrior, most of Zhao Yan's moves are based on strength. Even the offensive techniques at the soul level rely on absolute power to suppress others.
To put it nicely, it’s called “upright and upright”; to put it harshly, it’s called “simple and crude”.
Because of this, in the "Dragon Secret Realm" where her cultivation was suppressed, she was repeatedly defeated by Gu Xu's fancy talisman spells and insidious tricks.
And now, she can also feel that her own absolute strength is not enough to break Hu Yun's defense.
"Maybe he has a way." She glanced at Gu Xu beside her, noticed his indifferent and confident eyes, and couldn't help but guess in her heart, "It's just that he is limited by his cultivation and cannot use it temporarily."
p>
As for what Gu Xu said, "losing combat effectiveness within a period of time," Zhao Yan is actually not very worried.
Although she does not have Chu Fengge's "weed" magical power, she still contains several precious elixirs in her storage magic weapon, which can help her quickly restore her true energy, which can play a role in critical moments. Life-saving effect.
So sheAfter pondering for a moment, he whispered, "You have been very kind to me. Of course I can trust you."
Zhao Yan is not used to directly expressing emotions such as "gratitude" or "trust".
So after finishing speaking, she turned her head and looked to the other side calmly, suppressing all expressions on her face.
After getting her consent, Gu Xu no longer delayed, and immediately recited the adapted "God-Inviting Mantra" very fast, "Sparks burn the rivers and seas, and the light appears and illuminates the sky." ; The golden phoenix rushes like clouds and arrows, and the scorching sun shines like a wheel; the fragrance stretches out for thousands of miles, and the flying clouds and horses descend; I respectfully ask Miss Zhao of Youzhou to slay the evil spirits and evil spirits. The divine soldiers are as urgent as the law. "
Zhao Yan frowned more and more as she listened to him reciting the incantation.
She never expected that the originally solemn "God-Inviting Curse" would become so shameful and embarrassing when it appeared in Gu Xu's mouth.
Especially the sentence "Miss Zhao from Youzhou," which Gu Xu said seriously, made her expression a little complicated.
"It seems that the head of the Exorcism Department doesn't have much respect for the gods above the nine heavens." She commented silently.
At this time, she felt that a spiritual power belonging to Gu Xu penetrated her skin and flesh, penetrated into her sea of consciousness, and told her a request to "borrow true energy".
Zhao Yan thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Although she complained about this mantra in her heart, she did not hesitate at all in actual actions.
In an instant, she noticed that there seemed to be an invisible bond between herself and Gu Xu, and then the true energy in her body poured out like a flood that burst a dam.
When her meridians were empty and every drop of her true energy was extracted, an unprecedented sense of emptiness hit her whole body.
Zhao Yan is not used to this feeling of weakness.
This made her feel like she had turned back into an uncultivated mortal without the power to control her own destiny. She had to rely on the protection of others to survive in this dangerous world.
So she immediately took out the elixir to restore her true energy and stuffed it into her mouth.
At the same time, Gu Xu could also clearly feel a scalding heat pouring into his body, instantly filling his meridians, making him feel unprecedentedly powerful.
He once used the "God-Inviting Curse" to borrow Ma Qin's true essence and Chu Fengge's true essence.
But their real energy is not very smooth to use. It is a bit awkward and a bit stagnant, just like adding cooking oil to the car's fuel tank.
But this time it is different
Perhaps it is due to the attributes of the practice technique.
Zhao Yan’s true essence is extremely compatible with him, as if it is his own true essence.
This made Gu Xu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If "power banks" also have quality, then the young woman next to him must be the most high-end one among them.
Just becauseThe battle situation was tense, and Gu Xu couldn't find the time to think about what was going on.
At this moment, the contents of the two pages following the Seven Styles of Burning Heaven appeared in his mind.
The third form of the "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven" is called "Sui"; the fourth form is called "Xin".
The description in the book is as obscure and unclear as ever.
Even though Gu Xu's understanding was astonishing, after mastering "Ming Zhu", his learning speed of this spell stagnated again.
The Seven Heaven-Burning Techniques are indeed the most difficult to learn high-grade spells in the Daqi Exorcism Department
But now, when he heard about the "Vulcan God" from the North who stole fire Legend has it that when he obtained the "Hui Lu" rune in the lava cave of the "Changsheng Cult", when he saw the cracked "flint" in the royal treasury, when he saw Zhao Yan unfolding the dazzling fire phoenix wings , when he improved the Red Flame True Art again and again, he gradually gained a clear understanding in his heart.
The third page of the Seven Styles of Burning Heaven is an extremely abstract picture.
On the dark background, there are countless looming and irregular gray and white lines, like ghosts in the dark night, giving people a dizzy feeling.
Only in the corner of the screen, there is a lake-like orange-red halo.
This halo is very hidden and not conspicuous at first glance, but Gu Xu understands that it is the key to understanding this spell.
"The flint is a tool for making fire," Gu Xu thought to himself, "An ancient book says that the golden flint makes fire from the sun, while the wooden flint makes fire.
"Legends in the North Here, before there was fire, ghosts were raging, and the human race was in peace all day long; after there was fire, the human race finally had the ability to protect itself, established its own home, and continued to multiply and grow.
"Sui, that is, hope, is the "one" from zero to one. Only with it can everything follow."
While he was thinking, his eyes moved. Gradually it turned from indigo to pitch black, like a starless night.
But what has changed is not just the color of his childishness.
And the color of the sky above.
At this moment, both Shi Xiaohan on his back and Zhao Yan beside him were surprised to find that the sky above the alley had changed from leaden gray with billowing clouds to deep ink black.
The alley suddenly became dark.
Like the sun being swallowed by the Tengu, the world fell into an endless night.
Suddenly, two sounds of "chacha" sounded in the darkness.
That was the sound of drilling wood to make fire.
Immediately afterwards, a ball of orange-red light appeared in the field of vision of everyone present.
The light was very weak and inconspicuous, as if a gust of wind could easily blow it out.
But it lit up persistently, showing its existence in the darkness.
The place where the light source is located is the position of Hu Yun’s heart.
At first, when the spider web-like space crack disappeared, Hu Yun was slightly relieved, thinking that Gu Xu’s true energy was exhausted and could not grow.Maintain this powerful spell for a long time.
But soon he noticed the fire on his chest.
It was just a tiny spark at first.
However, under the control of Gu Xu's thoughts, it burned more intensely, became brighter and brighter, and the temperature also increased sharply, and Hu Yun was soon wrapped in a robe of flames.
This is the power of "fire".
Sow fire in the enemy's body, igniting it from the inside out.
Its power lies in its ability to ignore the enemy's external defenses and directly cause huge damage to the enemy from within.
The body refining spell of Dahuang is rare. Most of them focus on training flesh, skin, and bones, and very few target internal organs.
Only after cultivating a saint and reshaping the body can the physical body be strengthened in all aspects.
Even though the body of the "Ghost Warrior" is powerful, it is still inferior to that of a true saint.
Using "sui" to deal with Hu Yun is perfect.
Coupled with the powerful true energy that Zhao Yan's bloodline has awakened, which is enough to compete with the sixth realm monks, Gu Xu's "Seven Burning Heaven Styles" have unprecedented power.
Under the burning fire, Hu Yun's body quickly became charred black, with irregular cracks appearing, like volcanic rocks solidified in the cave.
"What kind of magic is this move of yours?" Zhao Yan next to her couldn't help but ask.
Hu Yun's "ghost servant" body could not even be affected by a shot she poured all her strength into, but it burned and disintegrated quickly under Gu Xu's unprecedented spell.
This made her both surprised and curious.
"The third of the seven Burning Heaven moves." Gu Xu replied.
"It's actually the Seventh Style of Burning Heaven," Zhao Yan murmured, "No wonder it's so powerful."
Shi Xiaohan's performance was obviously much calmer.
On the one hand, it’s because she is a magic idiot and has no idea about the difficulty and weight of Fentian Seven Styles; on the other hand, it’s because she has long been accustomed to Gu Xu’s excellence and his constant use. Create miracles and do incredible things one after another.
In the next few seconds, Hu Yun desperately mobilized all his strength to extinguish the fire that was burning from the inside out.
But the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" is, after all, a spell that involves rules and contains the true meaning of the great road.
It can only be suppressed from the level of Taoism, and it is almost impossible to crack it with violent methods.
And the law is the weakness of "Ghost Warrior".
So Hu Yun could only let his body be burned and eaten away by the fire bit by bit, and he was helpless.
Seeing that he was about to be burned to ashes.
At this moment, thick black smoke suddenly rose from Hu Yun's mutilated body, covering the entire alley.
This black smoke seemed to have healing power, extinguishing the fire on his body, making him shed his skin like a python, with his charred skin, flesh and blood fall off quickly, and then new muscles, bones, and new skin grow.
Even his clothes, which were burned beyond recognition, were restored to their original appearance in an instant, and the bright and sultry pink silk flower was pinned to his chest.
Both Gu Xu and Zhao Yan smelled a familiar smell from the black smoke.
The "Ghost King of Mangshan" glanced at each other, and both verified their guesses from each other's eyes.
In the battle just now, they only focused on dealing with Hu Yun, but ignored one problem
Hu Yun was not fighting alone
As Mangshan There is an inseparable connection between the ghost king's "ghost attendants", Hu Yun, the ghost king of Mangshan and the other "ghost attendants".
Hu Yun, who possesses the strength of the sixth realm, is considered to be one of the best among the "ghost attendants". The Ghost King of Mangshan will definitely not sit back and watch him be eliminated by two young monks across the border.
In addition, the Ghost King of Mangshan covets Shi Xiaohan's "demon body".
Then the arrival of its true soul on Hu Yun was not an unexpected thing.
No, wait a minute
This should not be the soul of Mangshan Ghost King
Gu Xu frowned slightly and thought to himself.
This billowing black smoke is indeed majestic, but the pressure it brings to Gu Xu is far less than that of Bai Chen, who has just revealed his true identity in the "Dragon Secret Realm".
"The ghost king of Mangshan should still be busy with its own big things," Gu Xu boldly guessed, "Currently, it can only give out a little bit of power to help Hu Yun repair his body, but it cannot Maybe the real body will come directly, allowing Hu Yun to directly display his strength above that of a saint.
"I cooperate with Zhao Yan, and if nothing happens, we should still be able to deal with him. ”
So, Gu Xu concentrated his mind and began to try to perform the fourth form of the "Seven Burning Heaven Forms"
"Xin".
Xin, Xin Ye .
That is, the burning grass.
On the fourth page of the Burning Sky Book, there are countless chaotic, thick and thin black lines. At the top, there is another eye-catching orange halo.
It is also extremely abstract.
Gu Xu can guess that it is a pile of firewood, but he cannot think of the deeper meaning. .
But today, when he saw the cracked "flint", saw the incomplete "astrolabe", saw Zhao Yan, and saw himself, he finally understood.
Ruo. "Fire" is a thing that makes fire, and it represents "hope".
Then "fire" is the carrier of fire, which symbolizes "inheritance", blood, thought, and Taoism. It has been passed down from generation to generation that the human form is gone but the spirit is not dead.
Just like the God of Fire was killed by the fairy thunder, but the fire he stole remained in the world, dispelling the darkness and driving away. Ghosts;
Just like Chi Yangzi died, his Tao survived through the Seven Burning Heaven Styles and reappeared in the hands of Gu Xu;
Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Xu's mind, but his eyes remained as calm as ever, and he cast spells without hesitation.
At this moment, the broken walls, broken bricks and tiles in all directions, as well as the red blood stains on the ground, all became his fuel.
The firelight on it is like a red cloud in the sky, bright and dazzling.
The key to the expression "salary" is that connection
can be built or severed.
It can also be understood that there is some kind of special inheritance relationship between the Ghost King of Mangshan and his "ghost attendants".
What Gu Xu has to do now is to cut off the bond between the two of them so that the power of Mangshan Ghost King cannot support Hu Yun. ,,
