Chapter 568: The Human Grave
Ever since Xu Ning and Yan Bing walked into the desolate Fancheng, there seemed to be a mist above their heads, as if a pair of eyes were always staring at the two of them. Their every move is under the watchful eye of an unknown force.
The feeling that lingers in my heart is very unpleasant, especially Xu Ning, as if he has been treated as a little mouse by others, and the trap in front of him is bound to jump down, and it is just to win the happy smile of others.
This kind of love slowly fermented, slowly accumulated, and when he met this so-called "old ghost of the tomb city", Cheng DΓΉ reached its peak!
The "Coiling Dragon Sword" looms in the palm of the hand, between the edge of the otherworldly space and the real world, and it cannot be done without a strong soul control force and the strength of the Gang Qi. Xu Ning's purpose in doing this is twofold, one is to play a deterrent role, tell the other party, no matter whether you are a human being or not, no matter how capable you are, I am not easy to mess with! The second is defense, the strength of the Panlong Sword has now increased a lot, in case the other party is not hostile, rashly shoot the Panlong Sword, it is easy to hurt people.
The shriveled, thin old man seemed to be moving a step on the roof with great difficulty, and the hoarse voice came again.
"Hey, boy, can you stand it! I didn't expect that I, an old man, hadn't gone out of Fancheng for more than a hundred years, and the martial cultivators on the Soul Continent had made a lot of progress! On the surface, the martial vein level is the third stage of the Emperor Realm, but in fact, you already have a soul cultivation technique, and if the two cultivation skills are combined, the actual attack power has reached the eighth stage of the Emperor Realm, or even the ninth stage of the peak! Wait a minute. Your sea of knowledge seems to have extended ......"
"Have you said enough?" Xu Ning looked at him and said coldly, "Isn't it interesting to see through other people's abilities?" I think you've lived alone for too long, and your brain is broken! Answer my question well, who are you? What for? βγ
"Hey, hey! Boy, I should ask you this sentence! You rashly broke into this city full of tombs, do you also want to get some oil and water? The old man stretched his neck, staring at Xu Ning with a pair of cloudy eyes, giving people the feeling of becoming cold and terrifying. It seems that if Xu Ning said the wrong word, he would kill people in an incredible way!
"I naturally came here for my purpose, do you care about it?"
"Hey, hey. Just those who come into the city of Brahman. I can handle it all. β
"That's strange, could it be that this Brahma City belongs to yours?" Xu Ning smiled coldly, but his face eased slightly, it seemed that the old ghost opposite had no intention of making a move.
His black robe was wide, large, dirty, and torn. But it's tough. Dragged on the ground for so long. There was not even a trace of wear and tear in the part that had swayed down. Most of the terrifying and cold feeling came from his face and eyes, all over his body. Whether it was breath or movements, it didn't seem like it could pose a threat to Xu Ning. This can't deceive people, in the Soul Continent, any kind of exercise can be perceived before actual combat, even if a clever assassin wants to completely cover it up, he can't do it.
"Young people nowadays are really getting more and more arrogant!" The old ghost seemed to sigh unhappily, "It's okay if you don't say anything, old man, I saved you, not only didn't say a word of thanks, but also hurt people, a kid like you, it's time to teach a good lesson." β
If he had been in a hostile state, Xu Ning would not have been surprised, the other party suddenly said this, Xu Ning couldn't help but be stunned!
"What do you mean, old ghost, how do you say you saved me? I warn you, don't play tricks! β
"Hehe, boy, if I hadn't stopped you just now, you'd be a scumbag by now! If you don't believe me, take a good look at that humanoid stone carving! β
Xu Ning is naturally skeptical, what danger can a stone sculpture have? But it's strange to say, I just said that the whole tree was blown into powder, and the stone carving was so close that it was unscathed, so there was something strange about it?
He watched the old ghost above him vigilantly as he slowly approached the humanoid statue lying on the ground.
From the appearance point of view, it is just the material of marble, and it is the lowest grade of stone, although the portrait has a shape, but can not withstand careful observation, if you look carefully, you will find a lot of flaws, the outer layer of the stone seems to have been eroded by something, the color is different, giving people a dirty feeling.
No matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary humanoid statue! In such a huge and decaying city, it is not surprising that there are humanoid stone sculptures upside down the street! Xu Ning couldn't help but look up at the old ghost suspiciously, wondering, was he being tricked by this old bastard?
At the moment when he was distracted, he suddenly felt the blood in his whole body suddenly heat up!
Xu Ning was taken aback, the air in front of him was filled with a red blood mist, and he felt a tearing pain in the exposed parts of his face, hands, and other skin! The blood mist floating in the air was undoubtedly a force sucked out of his body, but what shocked him was that the blood mist entered the humanoid stone sculpture without hesitation.
On the surface of the blue-white stone, a layer of blood beads was condensed and scattered, as if the dew drops of the early morning were dripping into the dry earth, and they quickly penetrated into it!
"Uncle's! What's going on?! Xu Ning was taken aback, his body was like a feather, and he quickly floated back, away from the moment of the humanoid stone carving, he felt like a nail next to a huge magnet!
The humanoid stone sculpture trembled slightly, and its face on the ground slowly bounced up, almost off the ground. Xu Ning was stunned by the stone carved face at this time, the corners of his mouth and eyebrows seemed to be smiling, a hideous and terrifying smile! Could it be that this stone statue is not alive?!
Xu Ning flew backwards more than a foot away, and almost hit Yan Bing behind him! I have the impression that this is a rare wolf bèi condition for me, and after I am far away, the stone statue seems to have lost its momentum, lying face down motionless, as if it has not moved at all. But Xu Ning stretched out his palm and found that his pores were red bloodshots, as for his face. It must have been miserable, and the slightest pain came like a pinprick in a pin.
"Brother Xu Ning, are you okay?!" Yan Bing looked at Xu Ning's face in surprise and said.
"Oh, doesn't it look particularly scary?" Xu Ning smiled bitterly and wiped his face with his hand.
Fingers brushed over the skin, just as sharp blades slashed across the face, and the palm of the hand was stretched out, and there was a faint layer of red on it.
"Damn! What a statue! See if I don't ruin it! β
Xu Ning couldn't bear it anymore, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, a thunderbolt in his palm condensed a huge fireball!
"Boy. I advise you not to do that! The voice came from the old skeleton-like ghost. Xu Ningqiang resisted his impulse and looked up. The old ghost's body was even more rickety, and his chin almost touched his chest, and I saw him move little by little. Walked to the edge of the house building. Keep moving forward. The whole person fell like this.
Watching him jump down, Xu Ning felt uncomfortable, especially after his feet landed on the ground. There seemed to be the sound of the spine being crushed and overwhelmed.
"Why?"
"Hey, boy, you've only had a little blood sucked out now, and if you break that mound, you'll be exactly like him!"
"What?! Mound?! β
"Humph! I told you a long time ago that the city of Van has become a tomb city! You can't see it yet, but it's corpses everywhere! If you don't want to die so quickly, you either get out of here now, or you'll have to listen to me! β
A stealth aura suddenly spread from under his feet, and it seemed that not only Xu Ning, but even Yan Bing shivered!
"Who the hell are you?!" Xu Ning gritted his teeth and roared.
"Young man, don't be so angry!" The old ghost squeezed out an ugly smile on his face and said, "If you can enter Fancheng, it means that you have a fate here, as for me, just call me an old ghost." β
"This name is indeed very suitable for you, but you don't have to care about what we do, let alone listen to you! If you want to plot against you, sir, I have hands, feet, weapons and skills, so that you can turn from an old ghost to a dead ghost! β
"Hahaha! Boy, you have a kind, I haven't talked so happily in a hundred years! However, I doubt that with the martial veins of the Eighteen Demon Slaying Chains in your body, do you also want to fight with my old man? β
Xu Ning was stunned again, this time he was completely shocked!
Between masters, you can almost see the level of the opponent's martial arts at a glance, but it is almost impossible to be able to see the type and name of the opponent's martial arts! Because no matter how strong the martial vein is, or how weak the martial vein, the power of the surface xiΓ n in reality is just a gangqi, like a big pot with a lid, and the water vapor is constantly coming out, but no one knows what is boiling inside without opening the lid!
The martial vein of the "Eighteen Demon Extermination Chains" was given to him by the Emperor Ji Master, and it was also a unique martial vein imparted in vitro, coupled with his unique physique, the possibility of being seen was even smaller. Moreover, this is the first time he has left the Dongzhou Empire, and not many people know about it, unless he ...... Unless the person in front of him knew himself before and knew his own details!
Thinking of this, Xu Ning calmed down instead, his sea of consciousness moved slightly, and then asked: "You actually know the name of my martial arts, it seems that you are not an ordinary person, just open the skylight and say something, what are you doing?" What is the purpose of pestering us? β
"Well, boy, I see you're calming down now." The old ghost smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't mean to harm you, but one thing is certain, you definitely didn't come to Fancheng full of mounds, to see the scenery." β
"You're talking nonsense!" Xu Ning said coldly, "You have been here for a hundred years, is it to see the scenery?" β
"Hey, that's a good question! In that case, we can work together! β
"Cooperation?"
"Yes, without me, you would have fallen into the labyrinth of human mounds, and in the end you would have become exactly the same mound!"
"Tell me about your conditions!" Xu Ning said with a cold smile.
"It's very simple, help me enter the soul altar, give me the spirit jade gems inside, and the rest will be yours!" The old ghost raised his voice, but he was still hoarse.
Xu Ning and Yan Bing stood in place for a long time without moving or speaking.
The feeling in my heart is the same, confused and hesitant.
Since the two of them entered Fancheng, it seems that they have lost their basic judgment and analytical skills, and their IQ has also dropped like children. Wait, think about it first.
Xu Ning closed his eyes slightly, and he had already entered the otherworldly space. (To be continued......)
