Chapter 17: Spiritual Calamity
At the same time that Chu Jianmo participated in the primary selection of the spiritual examination, Xue Tianci, who couldn't stay idle, did not go shopping with Chu Jianyao, but followed Xiao Shijiao to solve the recent frequent accidents in the Chu family.
This is a luxury building in a rather remote area, although the owner of the title deed is surnamed Zhang for a person with a different surname, but he does have a very good status in the Xiao family, but no matter what, he is just a businessman who makes his fortune by reselling the spar resources of the mining land, and there is no reason for other forces to target the family except for the spar products whose value is higher than the actual value, not to mention that this small family does not have any masters except for the guards they invite, and it can be said that the possibility of snatching the secret method is also ruled out.
"Then who would have nothing to do and slaughter nearly a thousand people here. Standing on the top floor of the seventh floor of this high-rise building, Xue Tianci looked down at the sea of corpses flowing with blood below, the corpses lying in various sections were horrible to see, not at all like they had been killed by cultivators, but more like signs that would only come after being bitten by wild beasts.
Who would have thought that in the middle of this thick layer of green trees outside, there would be a terrible massacre scene with thousands of corpses!
The twenty people brought by Xiao Shijiao were cleaning the battlefield, and Xiao Shijiao and Xue Tianci were overlooking the entire area from the top, they needed to sort out each other's intentions, otherwise they would always feel that they were being led by the enemy.
"There are a lot of scars on the body in the late stage of the highest cultivation god realm here, it seems that there was a long struggle before dying, but the surrounding environment is too clean, there is no trace of attack at all, and there is not even a trace of the attacker's characteristics, so he can't start at all. ”
Xue Tianci told his analysis of the scene, which was consistent with the opinion of the master prison, and originally thought that it would be an invasion of a different blood, but he didn't expect that there was no evidence at the scene that could judge the identity of the intruder.
"Wait for Chang Yi's news, the attack here is not as simple as random, so what can be found out from the identity of this family. ”
Xiao Changyi, the son of Xiao Changxie, one of the elders of the Xiao family, is a good cultivator, and his age is very young in the middle generation, and he is the best help for Xiao Shijiao when he was still in the Xiao family in the past.
"I'm thinking, those you met are all low-level alien races, that's why there was such a large-scale destruction before, what if they have evolved now? What if now they already know how to cooperate with the attack, how to clean up the scene?"
"Evolution, it's impossible, the alien race has existed a long time ago, it's just not out of control like now, their evolution has no other path than to devour other alien species, there can't be a tissue of the alien race... Well, there was one in the Genesis period, but it should have been sealed by the Demon Emperor himself. ”
"You mean the 'Pupil of the World', the force that has been isolated from the world along with all the ancient creatures?" Xue Tianci was not as ignorant of this ancient knowledge as he usually showed, and in front of Xiao Shijiao, who had experienced that era, Xue Tianci could speak freely.
"Pupil of the World", a heterogeneous force led by the current Demon Emperor Hua Ruofu, in the primeval period when all the lords of the rules of the dragon clan fell, the world that had ushered in peaceful development became a catastrophe, and the era entered the ancient dark age from the Genesis to the ancient dark age, at that time there was no single force that could stop them, even including the allies led by Qingyun Pavilion, but just after they raged for a full hundred years, Hua Ruoyu unexpectedly cooperated with Qingyun Pavilion to seal the "Pupil of the World" The Dark Ages came to an end and the world ushered in a year of relative peace.
"To be precise, they were sealed in a separate world, because the master was the main heart of that battle at that time, and it was at that time that he was too deeply infected with heterogeneous diseases, which led to the current situation of the Xiao family. ”
Xiao Shijiao didn't know what he said, he also heard that the Qingyun Pavilion Master chose to secretly try the dragon king rules buried in the Qingyun Pavilion under the temptation of power, but he didn't expect the actual situation to be like this.
"Then this, why don't you help your master correct his name? Now the people in the Three Domains think that Xiao Qingyun's greed for power led to his depravity?" Regarding this, Xue Tianci didn't understand why Xiao Shijiao, who knew the truth of the past, didn't help Xiao Qingyun get rid of the evaluation that tarnished his reputation.
"I don't know, the master told me not to argue with others about this matter no matter what, and to serve the next head of the family wholeheartedly after the seal is lifted. ”
Looking at the woman standing behind her, that cold and holy appearance will only make you think that she is a self-focused person, never made people imagine that she would be such a loyal person, after Xiao Qingyun's death was sealed for tens of thousands of years, she has been waiting, until Xiao Qingshan, the fallen heir of the Xiao family, escaped from his uncle's usurpation in his childhood, and unintentionally untied her seal before she was born again, and she was still able to wholeheartedly support the guy who was not much self-motivated, tens of thousands of years of persistence remained the same, even if she was sealed by her own master, she had no complaints, such a loyal character, even in these three domains, it is rare。
"I said, do you feel anything strange around you?"
With a serious face, Xiao Shijiao pulled back the snow that was lost in his deep contemplation, but he didn't feel any abnormal state.
"Where?"
Without waiting for Xiao Shijiao to answer him, the staff member who hurried up below had already rushed to the top floor where the two of them were, and reported to the two of them in a hurried tone that had not yet calmed down, "Report to the elder, the level of spiritual energy gathering here has broken through the critical value, and a new spiritual calamity will soon be formed!"
The environmental aura data displayed on the instrument in the man's hand was soaring upwards at an extremely exaggerated climbing speed, and the snow dumping that had not felt anything abnormal a few seconds ago was now obviously oppressive!
But the suspicious thing is that the surrounding environment still does not have any abnormalities, it is still a peaceful scene of wind and sunshine, this is impossible, if there is a highly condensed aura, then at least the surrounding air flow has been extremely restless, how can it be still calm in their own perception!
Xiao Shijiao obviously felt that something was abnormal, in her right hand, a red slender demon knife with a blade length of two meters appeared, only to see her take a step forward, and the long blade in her hand was wrapped in the airflow that tore through the space.
"Click...""Click...""Click..."
A large number of cracks began to appear in the surrounding space, and Xiao Shijiao's Dai Mei couldn't help frowning, it stands to reason that this is absolutely impossible, her own attack will definitely not reach the point of shaking the entire spiritual space, and the cracks that appear should be repaired quickly, but the scene in front of her gave her a terrible idea.
Holding the handle of the knife back, Xiao Shijiao simply threw the demon knife in his hand directly towards the crack in the space.
"Boom!"
An extremely crisp sound accompanied by a strong wind that was enough to rupture the entire building completely crushed the environment they were in, and after being broken by the demon knife of the master's prison, Xue Tianci realized that they had fallen into the trap of each other's illusion in the middle of their whole body guard.
The surroundings were no longer the sunny and sunny day they had seen before, and the time had turned to the evening dusk before they noticed, and the "Night Wheel" had already risen to the horizon, and the "Day Wheel" had already turned half below the horizon.
The winds around them were spiraling around the entire garden, and a powerful oppressive force was destroying the trees on the outside, and the building they were in was beginning to fall apart from the pressure, and the debris was being sucked into the sky and smashed to other places.
On the detection instruments of the entourage behind him, the spiritual pressure of the entire region is constantly breaking through the early warning in a geometric upward manner, level 1, level 2, level 3, level 4... Level 5!
The spiritual calamity that destroyed the entire Nangong family back then was only level six, and now the level of spiritual calamity in this remote area has reached a full level five!
The "whining" sirens of the probe seemed so small in this space where there was only the sound of the wind, but the Xiao Shijiao and Xue Qici under the wind were like a reef standing between the waves, facing the danger that could be attacked at any time.
"Enchantment... We were tricked before we knew it. Xue Qian stroked his forehead and smiled helplessly, it was the first time in a long time that he had stepped into someone else's trap unsuspectingly, it seemed that someone was deliberately trying to lure them over.
"Be careful, ahead. The thrown demon knife appeared in Xiao Shijiao's hand again, and in the dark space in front of him, a slender crack appeared in the sky, which was not caused by Xiao Shijiao's attack, but the frenzied spiritual power flow here was violently impacted!
And at this time, a huge phantom began to appear in this dim sky, it was the phantom of a huge creature, with a mountain-like physique, not to mention a height of more than sixty meters, with the appearance of this huge phantus, the whole sky became darker and darker, and when this darkness gradually condensed in front of everyone, they realized that the monster that appeared may not be like a hill, but it is a mountain itself, but it is a dangerous beast that can stretch out its limbs and move freely and is full of burning lava!
"Rumble..."
The low sound of moving stones, I don't know if it was the low roar of this rock creature or the sound of the stones moving on its body, the huge body made the building where several people were seem so small, as if this giant beast only needed to lift its feet slightly, the whole area would be razed to the ground, and fortunately, the twenty people brought by the prison had a strong enough psychological quality to not be stunned on the spot, they quickly gathered towards the top, and stood behind Xiao Shijiao waiting for her order.
"Mo Jiaen..."Xiao Shijiao recognized the identity of the giant beast in front of her, but at this moment her shock was far greater than the appearance of this giant beast, because the lava giant beast that appeared in front of them now turned out to be incorporeal, and the huge phantom brushed the trees on the way, and it couldn't even bring the slightest rubbing, but as it took a step forward, its body became more and more solid, and as its body moved, the cracks in the sky were more and more and bigger.
"Rumble..."
Accompanied by the strange sound again, with the cracking of the sky and the spilling of transparent fragments, the huge lava beast actually broke free from the shackles of space, and appeared in front of several people with a violent hurricane.
The scorching breath, the dangerous and ferocious eyes, and the imminent threat made Xiao Shijiao also preoccupied with the giant beast in front of him, the lava giant beast Mogarn, a fierce beast active on the battlefield in the early Genesis period, its whole body was filled with flowing high-temperature lava, which brought them life and energy like their blood, and the reason why they fought back then was also very simple, the number of races was too large to force them to find suitable soil for consumption, if it wasn't for the dragons who intervened in their war back then, I'm afraid the battle between the Spirit Clan and Mogarn would not be so easy to solve。
And now, a living Mo Jiaen actually appeared in front of him, why did the ancient creatures across the ages appear here, the owner Xiao Qingyun had obviously blocked the entire spiritual domain in the fixed point of time and space, could it be that the space-time chain that built the enchantment was broken...
"Hey, Hell, this... Is it really a spiritual disaster?" Looking up at the behemoth beast that was close at hand, although it was the first time Xue Tianci had seen this legendary lava beast, but his intuition had already told it how dangerous it was, but compared to the danger of Mo Jiaen, he felt the most incredible was the way it appeared, as a ranger, he had also seen the scene when the spiritual disaster appeared several times, if the scene in front was still in line with his memory, then what were these behind?
"No, someone is using the spiritual current of the spiritual calamity to break down the barriers between this world and the outside world. Xiao Shijiao waved to the twenty people in the rear to signal them to hide, judging from the furious state of the Mo Jia in front of him, the battle was only a few seconds later, and those followers also acted quickly, quickly retreating towards the forest behind the building.
"Roar..."There was a low roar, it was obvious that Mo Jia En had already felt the breath of several people, it had just broken free from the shackles of space, and it was now in a violent mood, and the fist full of bright red hot lava had already attacked towards the top of the building where Xiao Shi Prison was located with his low roar.
The entourage she brought had not yet evacuated to the safe distance of this blow, Xiao Shijiao could only choose to resist this blow, the pair of bright white three-fold wings stretched directly from her waist and back, and with a flutter of her wings, she actually took the initiative to swing her knife and rush towards the fist of Mo Jiaen's attack.
"Bang!"
The dull sound of bombardment, accompanied by the powerful wind generated by the collision between the demon knife and the stone fist, wantonly eroded everything in the environment in this space surrounded by enchantments, and Xiao Shijiao's blow broke the blow of Mo Jiaen, but it also completely angered Mo Jia En who was in a state of rage.
The body like a giant mountain jumped towards Xiao Shijiao flying in the sky, and actually jumped straight into the air at a height of 100 meters, and smashed his right fist into the master's prison, and Xiao Shijiao was also not to be outdone and waved his knife to fight back, the terrifying heat of Mo Jiaen's body could be fatal to other creatures, but for the demon sword master's prison forged from the flames, she would not be affected at all!
From beginning to end, she has never used an attack to win by skill, and every impact is a real hard hit, which makes Xue Tianci on the side shocked, I really didn't expect this woman to like this way of fighting, if it is in the hands of Xiao Qingshan, who likes to win by skill, I am afraid that the strength of the master and servant can be beaten to the sky.
And just as Xue Qianci was about to take advantage of Mo Jiaen's attention to be attracted by Xiao Shijiao and look for an opportunity, in the gloomy sky, another black shadow quietly condensed out when he focused all his attention on Mo Jiaen.
It was the same huge body as Mo Jiaen, and the body of nearly fifty meters made the whole area even darker, but it made the two of them not notice the strangeness of this darkness at the first time, and when the two of them noticed it, the black shadow had already broken free from the shackles of space and appeared in this space!
What an ugly creature it was, the curved and twisted head couldn't see where its brain was at all, the whole head was like a thick layer of armor full of hard texture, the body was rickety and the body was thin, but the front end of the thin limb had evolved a hard shell to make it more inconsistent in appearance, but what attracted Xue Tianci's attention the most was not its twisted and ugly limbs, but its back was craggy and dense like the emerald green rock crystal pierced into its body, a total of nearly six pieces of size and size, almost two-thirds of its body, although Xue Tianci did not know the use of these rock crystals, but the dangerous emerald green filled him with bad feelings.
"Poison?!" After splitting several rocks from Mo Jiaen's arm and leaving the battlefield, Xiao Shijiao looked sideways at the rushing monster, Xue Tian didn't recognize it, but she recognized the identity of the monster, and at the same time threw a more difficult question at her.
The rock crystal behind the poison body is full of poison, and the infection range of this poison is extremely large, a poison can completely infect tens of thousands of square meters of space, and this neighborhood is the domain of the Xiao family, no matter how she kills it, just after killing it, the infected toxin treatment is enough for her to trouble!
Xue Tianci's long sword appeared in his right hand, and his right foot stepped on the ground at the top of this building, rushing straight towards the poison that was slowly crawling, among these three domains, there are only two creatures whose bodies are inherently anti-toxic, one is the nine-tailed demon fox that has already exterminated the Qingqiu Holy Beast between the three domains, and the other is their white wolf clan!
Leaping high over the top of the poison's head, the snow dump rushed towards the poison from top to bottom, the long sword in his hand swept through the twisted hard shell of the poison's head, the seemingly hard shell was directly cut by the snow dumping sword, the dark green juice burst out from the wound, the snow dump immediately blurred to avoid the extremely corrosive liquid, and rushed to the fragile right arm of the poison with the help of the snow dump in the air, the body was condensed, and the long sword moved again, trying to cut off the thin limb directly.
But the thin limbs are extremely hard, compared to the hard but still bio-textured shell on the top of the head, the poisonous limbs are more like hard ore, Xue Tianci's full force sword did not cause any damage at all, but the force of the collision shocked him out, and at this time, the poison also locked the position of Xue Tianci.
The emerald green rock crystal behind it flashed with its low roar, and the dark green thick sap flowed from the rock crystal behind its body covered with poison, and began to flow along its body above the ground, where the juice flowed, all the vegetation contaminated with the thick thing disappeared, and even the land began to sink due to erosion, this is only a small part of the dripping to the ground, if all the venom from the poison's body flows to the ground, the consequences are simply unimaginable!
Xue Tianci didn't have time to think about these issues at all, and those viscous liquids began to spray at him from the tips of those rock crystals, so that he could only dodge through void in the air.
The trees and buildings below were completely affected by the seedlings, and they were all contaminated with their backhands, and they all melted into a liquid state in an instant, and this dissolution was accompanied by the high temperature, and a small part of the trees had begun to burn, but this battle took place in the enchantment, unless they could break the enchantment, no one would find out about their predicament!
"Howl!"
When Xue Tianci was forced to have no way out by the venom sprayed from the sky, he also roared, his white mist-like body actually drifted and expanded, trapping the poison in the form of chains, and the inner part of the white mist directly transformed into a sharp blade, with the high-speed movement of the white mist, the poison's whole body seemed to be dismembered by Ling Chi, and a large number of wounds appeared in various parts, but the more wounds it had, the more dark green liquid flowed out, and this liquid seemed to have a healing effect on its body, after Xue Tanci could not bear the toxins around the poison appeared in the body, those wounds were actually healing at a speed visible to the naked eye。
"Bang!"
With a dull impact, Xiao Shijiao, who was repelled by the lava giant beast Mo Jiaen, flew past Xue Tianci's side, and stabilized his body in mid-air with the help of spiritual power, Xue Tianci turned his head to look, only to find that Mo Jiaen had been demolished by Xiao Shijiao's body size was much smaller, and his original height of more than sixty meters was now only about forty meters, but although there were many fewer rocks on his body, the magma flowing between the rocks became more and more hot and terrifying.
"Hey, hit this guy, can you give some advice?"
The physical consumption is huge, Xue Qianci has begun to gasp to accelerate the burning of spiritual power in his body, although he is not afraid of the poison on his body, but he has no way to deal with this guy at all, the defense is high and the recovery is fast, and what is more troublesome is that once it is killed, I am afraid that it will give you a venom eruption before death to completely destroy the surrounding environment, and then it will be over to cause a huge disaster, but then again, this is the legendary fifth-level spiritual disaster, it is really powerful enough!
"All I know is that the flames of the phoenix can incinerate their venom, and I don't know any other way. ”
"This approach... It won't work at all, okay?"
However, this is not to blame Xiao Shijiao, after all, the most active period of the species is the genesis period of the gods and gods, and in this era of the dragon clan dormant and the fall of the phoenix, it is really difficult to think about how to solve a poison.
And the most troublesome thing now is not actually the two Mo Jia En and Yi Poison in front of him, but the existence that induces the spiritual calamity energy to deliberately break the balance between the Three Domains and the outside world, as long as he does not show up, it will always be a danger to the master and the prisoner.
Maybe he wanted to make some big moves, the demon knife in Xiao Shijiao's hand had begun to glow with a dangerous red light, and the blade, which was originally slender, began to bend and extend from the middle part, in addition to continuing the sharp edge of the blade, the middle blade became a more terrifying five-edged sharp blade, and the black power suit on Xiao Shijiao's body was also like being possessed by the sword blade at this moment, a blue-and-white soft armor clothing that perfectly fit the figure of Shi Jiao had already appeared, and the violent killing intent was diffused in this small world, In this state, it seems that Xiao Shijiao wants to solve it quickly!
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred... The two giant beasts were less than two hundred meters away from Xiao Shici and Xue Tianci, and they actually stiffened their movements at the same time, of course this was not their initiative, Xue Tanci and Xiao Shici could clearly feel that they were struggling, but this struggle was suppressed by a more powerful force, and it was completely suppressed, and they could only feel the slightest tremor of their bodies!
What's the situation, this is a species that ranks among the middle and upper in combat power in the Book of Genesis, how can it be suppressed by an inexplicable force to the point that it can't move!
And just when the two of them were on alert, a more powerful spiritual power turbulence began to gather from all directions, like a whirlpool, it began to circulate and vibrate throughout the heaven and earth in a form visible to the naked eye, and it is difficult to say that it is a coincidence, the place where the two giant beasts are standing is exactly the central part of this air flow vortex, and Xue Tianci and Xiao Shijiao, who are feeling the pressure in this central area, also took advantage of the fact that the suction power of this vortex reached its maximum and quickly retreated back to the top of the tallest building, where the field of vision was wide enough and not as exposed as in the air, which allowed them to quickly see the situation clearly in this place where the spiritual power was extremely disordered。
In the dark sky, or that place, the original crack has not disappeared, and now it is rapidly expanding under the bombardment of spiritual power turbulence, all this happened so quickly, but in a second, the dark blue space fragments have begun to peel off and fall down from the sky, but just now brought the snow to the incomparable pressure of Mo Jia En and Xi Poison, they actually disappeared in this world with distorted space fluctuations, not being teleported away, but becoming the nourishment of this spiritual power turbulence, directly opening this sky crack that is meters high!
This time the spiritual power turbulence is so powerful and oppressive, I'm afraid that the existence that comes out this time will be even more terrifying than these two giant beasts!
However, the two people who have been alerting the danger in the environment, what they didn't expect was that the real danger came from behind them!
"Huh!" A shiny cold light suddenly burst out from behind them, but I don't know if the attacker despised the cultivation of the two or his own cultivation was too low, this clumsy attack was not only directly caught by Xiao Shijiao's backhand, but also broke the opponent's right hand holding the blade.
"You?"
Xiao Shijiao's eyes were full of doubt, looking at the person who was sweating profusely from her broken arm and still continued to attack her, it was actually the entourage who had just been covered by her and had already retreated to the edge of the enchantment!?
"Long... Old... Save... I..."However, the other party's expression did not look like a betrayer, his expression at the moment was full of horror, Xiao Shijiao could clearly see that there was an extreme awkwardness in his movements, as if he was trying his best to resist himself, but this resistance only lasted for two seconds, and the opponent's attack recovered freely, regardless of the fact that his right palm had been broken, he actually launched another attack!
And this time it was Xue Tianci who counterattacked, and he also saw the problem of this entourage, so he did not directly kill him, but accurately cut off his tendons and tendons and pierced his spiritual power into the wound, blocking the spiritual power flowing in the other party's veins, trying to make him incapacitated, but what made him also feel terrified was that the other party was still able to continue to act even so!
"Help... Fate..."
Conscious cry for help, this is not something that controls the sanity, this is not an undead, such a living person, can still continue to act and even continue to attack without being affected in this situation?!
"Prison Division, look!" Glancing down inadvertently, Xue was shocked to find that the already broken corpses downstairs also took action, they supported their already broken wreckage, stood up again in the most impossible way, and began to climb up from the outside towards the roof of the building where the two were located, and the remaining nineteen people brought by the division and prison were also mixed in this group of wreckage, and they were frightened but uncontrollably crawled towards the top of the building.
Without further words, Xiao Shijiao held the demon knife horizontally, and directly reflexively slashed the attendant who was no longer able to control himself into two pieces, and then jumped straight down from the edge of the building, stepping on the vertical wall of the building and constantly slashing the corpses and living people who climbed up.
"Wow... Such a decisive woman, what a terrible woman..."
Xue Qianci didn't expect that for his own people, when there was no way to save them for a while, Xiao Shijiao would be able to kill them directly without hesitation, but this was indeed the best way to do so in the current situation of unknown enemy situation.
These strangely behaved creatures turned into corpses in just a few seconds under Xiao Shijiao's hands, and they were so scattered that they couldn't be put back together, including the twenty followers who were still helping her a few seconds ago!
Xiao Shijiao, who was bathed in the corpses and blood scattered around her, did not have a trace of blood, her expression did not change at all, even if she killed someone in her own family, she would not feel guilty or even disgusted with herself like others, for her, the already irrational demon sword spirit, the important thing in this world was only one person.
Except for Xiao Qingshan's related things, there is nothing in this world that can move Xiao Shijiao... At least when Xiao Shici had just killed all the moving lives around him with an expressionless face, Xue Tianci thought so, but when he saw the sudden horror on Xiao Shijiao's face that was already downstairs, Xue Tianci first suspected his own eyes.
But this is not an illusion, Xiao Shi imprisoned her, and she really felt scared?!
And at this moment, a light and melodious singing voice also penetrated the surrounding violent hurricane and the gloomy night to his ears, this is a melody he has never heard, the soft and immature female voice interprets this song ethereal and weird, so that the person who hears it feels both pitiful and terrible!
"O witch wandering in the labyrinth of illusions, who can take me out of this prison of memory blockade"
"The world that burns again and again is collapsing, but I can no longer see or hear"
"Who is wandering around me, and who is the blood-stained funeral song singing for"
"O past undead, please don't grieve for my passing"
"In the world in which I live, you will all die"
......
Xiao Shijiao looked at the sky outside the building, the space suspended above the trees was getting darker and darker, it had obviously begun to crack, but the toughness of the space itself made it not collapse immediately, and in front of the space that was about to be broken, the little girl who was suspended in front of the space like a ghost was the object that Xiao Shijiao was waiting for at the moment!
The long black hair was divided into two braids of inconsistent length hanging on both sides of her shoulders, the slender limbs as white as pearls felt too soft, as if they would be broken with a little force, it was like a waterfall that completely enveloped her thin body, her beauty was completely different from Nangong Lingyin's pure nature, as if created by the devil, and the constant common point was that all those who saw her would unconsciously be amazed and attracted by it, if it weren't for the scar that spread from her forehead down to her right cheek, this little girl was like a beautiful work of artBut this scar changed all senses, how beautiful she was originally, then how terrible she looked now!
"Puppeteer... Midnight!"
Xiao Shijiao's words were full of incredible surprise!
