In the pale mist, the bruised man gasped, lowered his head, and spat out bloodshot spit, and made a low sound in his throat like the roar of a beast.

**'s upper body is covered with one scar after another, some like a beast tearing, some like a snake bite, and some like being pierced by a spear.

On his chest, a silver tree map spread out layer upon layer, covering the skin of his heart.

In the constantly drifting mist, he gasped and raised his head, and waved the transparent blade in his hand, blood flying from the blade and spilling on the ground.

"Again."

Zhou Li gasped and said to Qi Chu, who was silent in the corner.

Holding a toy-like robot in his arms, Qichu looked at the scars on his body, shook his head silently, but gritted his teeth under his urging again, and stretched out his palm to the armor suspended in mid-air beside him.

The blood-colored armor was covered with silver veins, and a misty light shone under the infusion of power.

Like a black hole, it pulled layer upon layer of mist, opening a small whirlpool, expanding rapidly, and instantly expanding enough for one person to enter and exit.

After connecting with this subspace, Qichu, who was a half-spirit himself, gained the ability to influence this world, and after Zhou Li temporarily relinquished the control of the 'illusion disguise' to her, the original weapon that was the core of the space further increased the ability controlled by Qichu.

As long as she is willing, she can use this as a basis to continuously create a phantom comparable to the real thing.

And in the whirlpool, a faint shadow emerged from above the armor, becoming clearer and clearer under the convergence of the mist.

Until the end, there was a silent and gloomy white-skinned middle-aged man who relied on his armor and emerged from it, holding an invisible sword in his hand that was exactly the same as in Zhou Li's hand, and his green and empty eyes only had pure murderous intent.

Modeled after the 'memories' recorded by the World Tree, under the authority of subspace, countless mist uses 'fantasy disguise' as a basis to create such a miracle.

The former strongest killer of the Foundation, Onikiri, with the power of the World Tree and the Seventh Beginning, manifested from the fog for the sixth time!

Silently, he took a step forward and raised the invisible blade in his hand, and the killing power spread like winter.

Standing opposite him, Zhou Li wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised the blade in the same posture, ready for the upcoming battle.

This was the sixth time that Zhou Li had attempted to summon him from his memories of nothingness.

The first time, what Zhou Li summoned was just a model with a virtual appearance; The second time, he accidentally amplified his strength to dozens of times the original strength, causing Zhou Li to be cut into more than seventy pieces neatly without seeing anything.

3rd, 4th ...... It wasn't until the fifth time that Zhou Li and Qichu mastered the trick of how to control the intensity of the illusion, and created a ghost cut with the same basic quality as Zhou Li, but the result of the battle was still brutally tortured.

With the same qualities, the same weapons, and without using their respective abilities, Zhou Li's right hand was cut off in the third second of the battle, and his throat was cut off in the fourth second, and at the same time, his heart was pierced.

If this were a reality, then Zhou Li might have died a long time ago. But even if it was an illusion that could come again countless times, Zhou Li's confidence was crushed by the power displayed by the ghost cut.

Even if the ability is eliminated, only the ghost cut of swordsmanship is an out-and-out master of killing, but Zhou Li is almost not even an amateur.

Even if he had the talent to extend the attack distance to seven thousand meters, Zhou Li had never shot anyone to death at that distance...... This is the end of too loose marksmanship.

Now the burner has been temporarily damaged, although Zhou Li has made up his mind to find someone to repair it in the future; But before that, he couldn't watch himself lose a weapon and his combat effectiveness fell to the point of nothingness.

So, if you don't have the ability to fight from a distance, then develop the power of close combat.

It's a pity that this thing can't be cultivated by giving you a book of boxing techniques or sword books that can be cultivated after more than ten years of closed-door penance, if you really do this, and the peerless magic skills are not done, it is estimated that you will have to toss yourself first.

According to the tradition that has been passed down in China for thousands of years: first of all, you must have a master, who teaches by word and deed, how to stand on this pile, how to make the strength, and what effect should this punch have...... Just a person is thinking blindly, how can a blind man touch an elephant compare to the martial arts and boxing techniques that have been passed down for dozens or hundreds of thousands of years?

Moreover, from ancient times to the present, whether it is the kung fu in hand or all kinds of weapons, there has always been a hurdle that cannot be bypassed -- actual combat.

You have to practice what you learn. In order to cultivate a master in actual combat, it is necessary not only to have a senior brother to try his hand, to have a target to practice, but also to have an enemy suitable for himself to cultivate consciousness.

Otherwise, there is no place to use it, and it is better to sell pancakes after learning this thing.

Besides, now that the cultivation of immortals still needs the wealth of the law and the earth, if you want nothing, you can practice the peerless magic skills by yourself, it is better to take drugs and dream quickly.

Fortunately, for Zhou Li, none of this is a problem. The memory left by Ghost Cut can be called "Assassination Encyclopedia", in addition to the main martial arts, it is just poison explosion. Bullet recipes, stealth ambushes, and other minutiae are enough to learn for a few days.

With the cooperation of the World Tree as a retriever, Zhou Li only needs a few keywords to find what he wants from various memory partitions, and it is not a verbal description, so detailed that even the mental will when making a move is so clear that it is indescribable.

And I know everything, I say everything, and I am used to it better than Baidu Valley Dog.

As for the opponents? If you don't have an opponent, let's make one...... After discovering this problem, Zhou Li naturally hit the idea of this subspace that can turn illusions into reality.

After a few days of exploration and the cooperation of Qichu and 'phantom camouflage', Zhou Li finally met the initial requirements, and reluctantly embodied all kinds of things in the past in this space, and after carrying the memories of the ghost cut, it was not difficult to completely simulate the strongest killer in the past.

Although he can't leave this world, and he doesn't have any damage outside of the illusion, it's not a problem at all for Zhou Li, who only wants to make up for his melee ability.

It's just a pity that the question is...... I can't beat it!

The little monsters in front of him said that the octopus head or all kinds of alien shapes are not a problem for Zhou Li, even if it is the kind of spider with a creepy avenue, he can easily and skillfully unload eight pieces after practicing for many hours.

After all kinds of tragic deaths, Zhou Li now finally has the appearance of a melee fighter, although every time he encounters Ghost Cut, he loses so badly that he can't be more miserable.

But this is also a matter of course, Zhou Li has learned the assassination sword of the ghost cut, and he has not yet learned the level of Qingqing. When a fake meets the real thing, even if it is an illusion of the real thing, it is a death and a quasi-death.

After a long time, Zhou Li almost had a shadow on this goods.

Silent and facing the illusion of murderous intent in front of him, Zhou Li only felt one burst of pressure after another, even if he was facing only an illusion, Zhou Li's momentum was completely suppressed.

In the faint mist, Zhou Li's chest cavity that was torn out by the four-eyed giant wolf slowly bulged, and his breath, the fiery breath flowed out of his chest, turning into a low roar.

In the mist, the sound of roaring spread like thunder without warning.

In an instant, he didn't wait any longer, took a step forward, and the blade in his hand shattered the air and slashed forward!

A sharp sound sounded like the chirping of a bird, followed by a screeching sound of sword blades colliding, and two invisible blades collided with each other in mid-air, rubbing into a burst of sparks.

Zhou Li felt that he was slashing on a stone, and the hand holding the blade of the ghost cut was as stable as if it was made of steel, and it did not waver in the slightest under Zhou Li's slash, and then burst out with the terrifying power of counterattack.

The light of the blade flashed away, and blood spurted from Zhou Li's shoulder! Between the staggered blades, the ghostly blade rushed forward, swimming up along the upper arm, dismantling the muscle groups on the arm as if surgically, causing the power on Zhou Li's sword blade to suddenly decrease to one side.

In the first round, Zhou Li's best right hand was abolished, but the battle continued.

The sword that cut his shoulder and went straight to his throat was flashed by Zhou Li in a rapid retreat, but his right hand hung limply on his shoulder, and was cut off by the blade of the sword that was chasing after him.

Even if it was an illusion, Zhou Li couldn't help but feel a burst of unbearable pain, under the stimulation of the severe pain, Zhou Li, who had been taken care of, was completely crazy, rushing out towards the sword blade that fell in front of him!

The rhythm of the sword and blade exchange sounded frantically again, without pause, and this time Zhou Li never took a step back.

The two people were separated by a short distance, constantly dodging each other's blades in the narrow space, and then handing out the killing machine of death to each other.

Don't use your own ability, don't use inhuman power, simply rely on swordsmanship, the winner lives, and the loser dies.

And in the middle of the battle, Ghost Che was not damaged from beginning to end, but Zhou Li, who was opposite him, was already covered with dozens of terrible scars.

Even if it is the same swordsmanship, compared to Zhou Li's jerkiness, every time Oni Che makes a move, it is like instinct, attacking towards the deadliest place, even if it misses, it will leave a scar on Zhou Li when he closes the knife - never a single knife splits the air.

Every time he slashes out, it represents another heavy blow to Zhou Li, even if it doesn't make him leave immediately, it is rapidly consuming and devouring his energy.

Until the end, Zhou Li's barely maintained defense was finally penetrated by the pervasive swordsmanship, and he once again felt the intense pain of his heart being pierced.

A shattering sound sounded, the figure of the ghost cut dissipated, and the illusion collapsed rapidly. The intense wounds on Zhou Li's body peeled off violently as the illusion subsided, and when he fell to the ground again, he had already returned to his original appearance.

Even if the scars have disappeared, the mental and physical strength consumed will not come back, and the pain remaining in the nerves is still reminding Zhou Li of the scene that happened just now.

Without exception, I lost again.
