Chapter 45: The Man in the Shadow
When Lin Muye woke up again, he noticed the strange environment around him, and suddenly sat up in shock, and his legs became a little paralyzed because he hadn't moved for a long time.
He slowly stood up from the white bed, a small room with a wooden square table at the head of the bed, on which stood an old kerosene lamp, the flame emitting a faint light, and the door made of steel was locked and could not be opened.
Lin Muye knocked on the heavy steel door, and no one responded except for the metallic sound it made. Trying to use the power of space, he found that there was an enchantment here, and the space had been blocked, and it was impossible to cross the space at all.
He remembered that Wu Jianghai's heart suddenly changed drastically, and the coercive power released by the twenty soul power directly stunned him, what is the secret in Nian Ci Hall!
Moreover, Wu Jianghai has been lurking beside me for so long without moving, but he didn't do it until Niancitang! Lin Muye couldn't figure it out.
Since his soul power had reached the height of the twentieth rank, wouldn't it save time and energy to snatch the magic knife directly?
"Isn't it for the magic knife?" Lin Muye frowned, "Could it be that the magic knife is just one of the conditions for opening the Nian Ci Hall!"
"And what's that other condition, and what does it have to do with me?"
……
"I don't know what happened to the fat man!" He sat down at the head of the bed again, the six gods were ownerless, and he was in a trance, and opened the Qiankun bag, the magic knife inside should have been taken away by Wu Jianghai, but fortunately, he didn't have the idea of playing the lottery machine.
Not long after, there was a screeching sound of nails scratching on the steel door outside the door, which made people feel sore in their teeth.
"Who's outside?" Lin Muye slowly approached, his ears leaning against the door, the sound of the stroke reminded him of Mei's sharp nails! Could it be that it was outside? He asked tentatively, "Is it Mei?"
The sound of scribbling on the door suddenly stopped, and after a while, a familiar shout came: "It's not Lao Tzu, is it the fat man!"
Lin Muye patted his head, and Mei still spoke so sharply.
"Where are you trapped?"
"Sleepy, can Lao Tzu still be trapped in this kind of place!" the charm outside the door continued to scratch the steel door with three fingernails.
"Can you not scratch back and forth with your fingernails on the door?" Lin Muye covered his ears and kicked the door with his foot.
Mei stared at the unchanged door, and exhaled angrily: "Grandma's! Why are you so hard! Lao Tzu still doesn't want to scratch it!"
As he planed, he shouted, "Wait, I'll open the underground passage for you!" Mei stretched out three fingernails and suddenly plunged into the ground, turning on the dog planing mode.
The fire in the house gradually became weaker, and the lamp oil inside was about to burn out, Lin Muye condensed his soul power several times, trying to forcibly break through the heavy steel door, but several times to no avail.
He sat cross-legged at the head of the bed, and at this moment he happened to continue to practice soul power, so he used the cultivation method in the Divine and Demon Treasure Book, closed his eyes and condensed his breath, like a stone carving.
The qi and blood around his body surged, and the aura of heaven and earth swept in, and the soul power in the dantian gradually increased a lot.
Half an hour later, Lin Muye was woken up by a sound of digging and opened his eyes.
The furry head was smiling at Lin Muye, and its head was covered with gravel: "What's the matter!
Lin Muye nodded heavily and gave it a thumbs up.
"Get out of here quickly!" Lin Muye urged Mei, and the two of them went into the tunnel and came out from the other end.
Lin Muye looked around, his position was due south, and there were two rooms side by side. Due north, there is a staircase leading to a heavy steel door.
"Where are the fat man and Old Chen locked up?" Lin Muye asked.
Mei shook her head, "I haven't seen them. ”
Lin Muye frowned, aren't the fat man and Old Chen here? This place is like a cellar, there are only two rooms, one is trapped by himself, and the other is trapped by Mei.
"Let's go out first!" Lin Muye said slowly, walking to the heavy steel door in the northwest, Lin Muye pointed to the door and looked at Mei.
Mei shook her head and stretched out her claws, the six little nails were already broken: "Lao Tzu's nails are worn out in order to save you." ”
Although this kid looks unreliable, he is meticulous in handling things, Lin Muye touched its head and put it on his shoulder.
Look around, it's empty, there are no tools to dig into, only hands!
Lin Muye condensed his soul power in his palm, and then began to dig.
The dirt pierced into the fingernails, and soon blood overflowed, and although it blessed the soul power, the soil here was not soft.
"That's not the way to go. Lin Muye stopped the excavation work in his hand and took a long breath, could it be that he was trapped here? Since he had already obtained the magic knife, why didn't he kill me! Lin Muye clenched his fists.
……
The red glow stained the clouds, and night soon fell, and the merchants who set up stalls in the ghost town of Xudu hurried back to their homes.
The gate of the ghost city was opened, and many ghosts poured out, and they all seemed to have the same goal, that is, Nian Ci Tang!
The night was cold and cloudy. Lightning loomed in the clouds, followed by thunder in the sky.
Du Fang was dressed in a robe, followed by a group of people, all of whom were powerful soul masters, and came straight to Nian Ci Hall.
A figure appeared from the sky, he fell, his black clothes floating in the wind, it was the black shadow man.
"Master, you're here!" Du Fang bowed.
The shadow man nodded in a deep voice, and he spoke, "How's the soul collection?"
"The first stage has been collected, Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Ouyang are preparing for the second stage, and now they are waiting for that kid's soul power to be released!"
"Good!" The shadow man sneered, he had been waiting for this day for more than forty years!
Vast ghosts surround the Nian Ci Hall and are at their disposal.
"Master, is there some conspiracy for Uncle Ghost King to lend us the ghost so happily?" Du Fang asked.
The black shadow man sneered: "He also wants to see the scene of chaos in the world!" he clenched his fists and showed a wicked smile, the Styx organization has always existed, hidden in the darkness just waiting for an opportunity, and now the time has come.
Lin Muye continued to mobilize his soul power and used various methods to smash the door open, but all his soul power was actually sucked into the steel heavy door, like a bottomless pit.
"Whew~" Lin Muye's forehead was already covered with sweat, and the soul power in his body was about to be consumed.
"This steel heavy door is so weird!" Lin Muye took a breath and bombarded for nearly an hour, but the door did not move at all, not even a scratch appeared.
"Alas~ There seems to be a purple light on this door?" Mei jumped in front of the door, pointing to a purple light on the door, which was slowly circulating.
"This power...... Purple light!" Lin Muye frowned, this energy is the power of the demon race! Could it be that this is also Li Ziwen's base camp?"
He sat cross-legged, continued to condense the aura of heaven and earth, gathered the dantian, and after an hour, Lin Muye's soul power was full again.
This time, he gathered all his soul power in his hands, and the powerful purple and golden soul power gathered more and more, and Lin Muye's body exuded a dazzling brilliance.
The pure energy converged into a giant sphere.
"Whew~" Lin Muye took a breath, this time it should be successful!
"Mei, get out of the way!" Lin Muye roared and threw the huge energy sphere out suddenly!
"Boom~" The whole heaven and earth let out a violent roar, and the purple and golden light exploded, and the eyes of Mei and Lin Muye instantly became blank.
Lin Muye's clothes were shattered by this force, and Mei used her claws to block the impact of soul power, and Lin Muye blocked Mei behind her.
After a ripple of energy, the heavy steel door gradually became clear in front of him.
"How so!" the steel door didn't move!
……
"Master, as expected, he is indeed the reincarnation of the Demon General!" Du Fang bowed and said.
The black shadow man smiled faintly and slowly spoke: "The time has come!"
