Chapter 12: The Edge (4)
Waking up from the familiar ward, Mu Jingfan finally breathed a sigh of relief, Li Tong was worthy of being the head of the Li family, and he still rescued the two of them.
The wounds on his body have almost healed, after all, they are only some minor injuries, even if they are not treated, Mu Jingfan himself can recover by himself under the repair of the aura.
What he is more worried about now is Li Jiayao's side, the girl is different from him, the overuse of aura is not the same as being injured, and it is likely to leave some sequelae.
Once the sequelae are left, it will have a great impact on the girl's future cultivation, which is not something that Mu Jingfan hopes to happen. Because he knew that the Li family's heavy responsibilities were all on the girl's body, and once the girl had something to do, she herself would definitely become the target of some people with a heart.
Looking at the wound in his abdomen that had not yet completely healed, the resentment that was raging in his body before had probably been cleared out by Li Tong and them, otherwise there might be some trouble.
"It's still too underestimated to look at them, I didn't expect these boss-level 'Yin Spirits' to be so tricky. Mu Jingfan thought back to the special lines on the 'Yin Soul'.
In that kind of lines, there is a faint more evil aura, Mu Jingfan does not know the meaning of ancient words, if it is replaced by some more familiar old people, he must be able to interpret the meaning of those lines.
"Let's ask Uncle Li, maybe he will know something. Mu Jingfan always felt that those lines had a special meaning, and they should not just look evil.
After paying attention, Mu Jingfan put on his clothes and walked out of the ward. Enjoying the rich aura nourishment in the courtyard, Mu Jingfan could feel that his wounds were a little itchy.
Walking out of the ward, he also saw the corpses that had not yet fully converged not far away. After the death of a master, after the memorial service, there will be people in the family who have more power to speak.
We have accepted the power of heaven and earth, and when we die, we will naturally return it to heaven and earth. Their corpses will be eroded by the aura and dissipate between heaven and earth like 'Yin Spirits'.
The soul will enter the ancestral hall of the family, unconsciously give protection to the descendants of the family, and the will will will be passed on from generation to generation, which is the life of the masters.
Still, senseless deaths are to be avoided. Succumbing to death is not counted as the glory of the master, what they want more is to be able to watch the peace of this world pass away.
This is probably the voice of all the masters in this world, but unfortunately this fantasy is basically unrealizable.
I don't have a deep relationship with other degree masters, and most of the people in it don't know Mu Jingfan, but there are exceptions. A few of these familiar faces immediately remembered when Mu Jingfan saw them, they were a few of those degreed masters who had fought with Zuo Yong before.
Unexpectedly, they would also become victims of the Heavenly Horse's hunting plan. It's never a good feeling for someone you know to die.
Li Tong, who came out of the other ward, saw Mu Jingfan in deep thought, and stepped forward.
"What's wrong?"
"Uncle Li, it's nothing, I'm just thinking about something, oh, by the way, I have something I want to ask you about. ”
"It's about the 'ghosts'. Seeing Mu Jingfan's expression, Li Tong could probably see through his thoughts.
“。。。 Yes. ”
"None of us have experienced that era, so it's hard to say clearly, only that these 'Yin Spirits' have evolved on the basis of those low-level 'Yin Spirits' that have preceded them. ”
"Evolution?"
"That's right, just as humans are constantly evolving, so are those 'ghosts'. In this world, there are a total of 24 ancient scripts that contain special powers. Those who rode the heavens inscribed these special words on the armor of the 'Yin Spirit', and as long as the 'Yin Spirit' could withstand this power, it would be able to evolve into a stronger individual. ”
"As long as there is a probability of failure?"
"This kind of forcible evolution is definitely not the right way, and the success rate is naturally not very high, and even if you can succeed in one out of 100 'Yin Souls', you are quite lucky. Li Tong paused and continued.
"Even so, how many generals have died in the past few thousand years, no one will know at all, how many 'Yin Spirits' have been created by Tianqi is just a concept, and they will definitely not be stingy with this kind of consumption on such high combat power. ”
"But in that case, how are we going to defeat these 'ghosts'?"
"Even if they evolve, they are just a 'Yin Spirit', and there is always only one thing we have to do, which is to free these locked souls into reincarnation. You don't have to worry, their special powers can't be used for long, otherwise they will only hasten their self-destruction. ”
The doubts in his heart finally came to an end, but Mu Jingfan still didn't figure it out a little, he always felt that there were other secrets hidden in these 'ghosts'. Somewhat different from Li Tong's description, those ancient characters were inscribed on armor and more like they were locked on it.
Mu Jingfan could feel a trace of aura from those flowing lines, and those extremely hidden aura were as if they were firmly locked in the lines on the armor.
Perhaps there are some similarities with Mu Xuan's power before, Tianqi unconsciously mastered the power that can combine aura and resentment.
That kind of extremely powerful destructive power, Mu Jingfan still vividly remembers, no matter what, he must not let these 'Yin Spirits' continue to hunt down those Degree Masters.
Looking at the dozens of corpses in front of him, Mu Jingfan silently swore in his heart. Since the target of the 'Yin Spirit' is him, as long as he feels his aura appear, then that 'Yin Spirit' will definitely appear.
did not tell Li Tong about the plan in his heart, Mu Jingfan came to Li Jiayao's ward after saying goodbye to the other party, and the girl has not woken up until now, but her physical injuries have finally recovered.
"Li Jiayao, how can I repay your favor. Mu Jingfan looked at the girl with complicated eyes, and he could feel Li Jiayao's feelings, after all, the girl had already shown it very obviously.
It's just that there are too many things pressing on Mu Jingfan, so he doesn't have time to think about these problems at all.
"Forget it, don't think about these questions yet, you have to get better quickly. After saying this, Mu Jingfan walked out of the ward. After he left, Li Jiayao's breathing changed significantly, and it seemed to have some meaning of awakening.
However, these are not things that Mu Jingfan can see.
Sneaking out of the Li family's compound, along the deserted street, Mu Jingfan walked all the way to the wasteland on the outskirts. He didn't hide the slightest hint of his aura fluctuations, all he wanted was to lure that 'Yin Spirit' out.
In this battle, without the help of others, he can only rely on himself.
Standing alone in the open space, Mu Jingfan didn't know what he was thinking, strictly speaking, the other party's strength was slightly stronger than his, but Mu Jingfan had overcome such a gap countless times, and these were just minor problems for him.
As he expected, the 'Yin Spirit' soon appeared in front of him after feeling his aura. A crack cracked in the ground, and the 'Yin Spirit' burst out of it, and the armor lines on its body were deeper than before.
Mu Jingfan could feel that the other party's aura was three points stronger than before, maybe Zhang Yuan had done something on this 'yin ghost' again.
"Master Duhua, I didn't expect you to dare to come out and face me alone. "'Yin Spirit' was also extremely surprised by Mu Jingfan's boldness.
"We've got to have a playoff game if we have two battles and one loss, right, it's not that easy for you to kill me. The flames on his body ignited, and the spirit soldier and spirit armor covered Mu Jingfan's body at the same time.
Under the backdrop of the flames, Mu Jingfan was like a blood-stained god of war, with a majesty that could not be touched.
"This time, no one will come to your rescue. "The 'Yin Spirit' said, and the short blade and long sword in his hand were raised, and a cold light flashed on the blade.
'Inch'
His figure disappeared in place, but the 'Yin Spirit' judged Mu Jingfan's landing point in an instant, and turned around to swing a sword, but it was unexpectedly swung into the air.
The moment he landed, Mu Jingfan lowered his body, since the other party could predict his position, then on the other hand, he could also predict the opponent's attack.
'Blade'
The blade hidden in the armor above his left arm burst out with force, and red blood-like cracks lit up from the armor of the 'Yin Spirit'.
Mu Jingfan's attack was also able to penetrate the opponent's armor.
The two of them are like fighting with their bodies, without any protection at all, as long as they make a mistake, they will suffer a heavy blow. It can be said that every move and style is walking on the edge of the cliff.
The 'Yin Spirit', who was seized by Mu Jingfan, did not have any panic, and a sword light forced Mu Jingfan to retreat, and the spear in Mu Jingfan's hand had been raised when he retreated.
A black meteor stabbed at Mu Jingfan, who had not yet reacted, but fortunately, Mu Jingfan was already vigilant in his heart, and he still dodged it in time.
The blade of the spear only cut a hole in his face, and the 'Yin Spirit' saw that he had been hit by a blow, and he didn't make much of an attempt, and his body continued to retreat.
Its speed is still much worse than Mu Jingfan, and it must find a way to block Mu Jingfan's advantage, but fortunately, it already has a mature idea in its heart.
