Chapter 716: Ghoul
Shang Que thought that his recuperation had reached an extreme, and even if the world collapsed in front of him, he would not necessarily have any fluctuations. Most cultivators have the kind of posture of "it's none of their business, hang it high". But at this time, he was also "shocked" by Nangong Fan's appearance.
Not to mention the others, as a god, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an artifact master, he is definitely the richest group in the same realm, and there are even many things in it that are refined by himself and his old buddy... Just look at it and don't look at it at random choice?
That's still too young!
However, Shang Que treats the juniors, especially the juniors who have a lot of background, still have a good temper, and you say slowly, "You really want to fight with the creatures of the underworld?"
"Yes. "Nangong Fan's fighting spirit is skyrocketing.
When he was still under the throne of his master, he heard countless stories, and the time span was also very huge, from the age of gods and demons, to the first birth of heaven and earth, and to some newborns today. However, some legends have already been finalized, and some are still creating new ones. And the most of them is the legend about the hundred sons, in addition to being closer to the current era, according to Nangong Fan's guess, the main reason should be that Shizun is one of the hundred sons, and he is one of the only remaining witnesses of that era.
Not to mention the rest, at least most of the "stories" about Baizi should be the history that really happened. And it just so happened that the reason for the birth of Baizi was that the underworld invaded the human world, and he became famous in the middle of the Three Realms War, and made great contributions to the protection of the human race.
Stories related to the underworld are naturally indispensable for the description of the creatures of the underworld. What is a fierce bone dragon made entirely of huge bones, a beautiful creature with a unique charm and a butterfly that attracts people's hearts and minds, what kind of humanoid creature that only has a soul remaining in the world, and a large number of creature like a dog...
He'd heard of it, but he'd never seen it. Of course, he knew that the few creatures he was thinking of, except for the one with a large number, were all considered the royal family of the underworld, and the number was scarce, comparable to that of divine beasts. With Shang Que's strength, even if such a creature was really captured alive, it would not fall into his hands.
Nangong Fan didn't want the opponent race to be so strong, after all, his own strength was there, they must be much stronger than himself, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was one in the sky and one underground. He just heard about the creatures in the underworld and thought of the history of blood and tears of human beings at the beginning, and the history of the fame of the hundred sons of the human race. Maybe he heard too many stories, and his whole person was also substituted into it, just wanting to kill the majesty of the creatures in the underworld, so as to remember the demeanor of the ancient sages.
Shang Que's pupils were incomprehensible, and he suddenly laughed heartily, "Okay, I'll satisfy you!" However, I also want to remind you a few words. ”
"Senior, please speak. Nangong Fan smiled and bent down respectfully.
"I have a hundred or so creatures of the underworld in my hands, all from different races. But they all have one thing in common..."
"What do you have in common?"
"Yes, the common denominator! That is, their cultivation is very close, and they are all in the realm of spiritual path. Shang Que's voice gradually became cold.
Nangong Fan was also surprised, Lingdao... In the realm of humanity, heaven and earth are yellow, and only when they reach the perfection of the heavenly realm can they be qualified to transform into mortals and become spiritual cultivators. However, for some more demanding people, there is another realm in between-star. The Heavenly Realm Ning Dan is the main star, and then the so-called planets can be added around the main star according to a certain context. Although the "planet" is not as big as the "main star", a "main star" is equivalent to the consummation of the heavenly realm, and it can grow later, plus the capacity of the "planet"... The cultivation that can be increased can be imagined, and it can also be regarded as a change of direction to increase the capacity of the dantian.
Regardless of whether these underworld creatures have gone through the astral realm before transforming into mortal spirits, these people in front of him are far beyond his comparison. Whether it's in strength or experience. He is not yet a hundred years old now, and it can be said that he can have such a cultivation, which can be said to be extremely dazzling, but the older he gets, the richer his combat experience becomes. Even though he had experienced a lot of battles now, these underworld creatures might have walked more bridges than he had ever eaten. There is no comparison at all.
"Do you want to continue fighting?" Shang Que's voice was very indifferent, and even had a hint of demagogy.
Although he had already agreed in his heart that Nangong Fan would fight with the creatures of the underworld, he still tried to use his mind to lead Nangong Fan to refuse this battle with his own mind.
"Do you want to continue fighting?" Nangong Fan was also asking himself, although there was a voice in his heart that made him "refuse", but he was directly ignored by him who comprehended the law of illusion.
Although Shang Que used his divine thoughts to exert influence, he was afraid of causing trouble, so he did not fully exert his strength. He didn't even know that Nangong Fan had a certain immunity to these methods because of his comprehension of the law of illusion, and in his opinion, he agreed first this time, and then hinted at it with words and divine thoughts. Nangong Fan will definitely not continue to fight.
"I still choose to keep fighting. Nangong Fan tilted his head and said quite seriously.
"You... That's it. Shang Que shook his head and sighed slowly, "Although the creatures of the underworld can be in the same realm as you under my suppression, there will inevitably be some omissions, are you ready?"
Nangong Fan licked the corners of his mouth, and a trace of blood gradually appeared in his pupils, "As long as you are in the same realm as me, you can fight!"
"The previous experience was only to stick to ten moves in the hands of the creatures of the underworld. After all, although their cultivation has been suppressed by me, their combat experience is still there, and their ability to find flaws is still there. Coupled with the bronze gates and various spaces on the first few floors, it tested the cultivation and understanding... If you can really go to the eighth layer, not to mention that you are comparable to the holy sons and saints of those great sects, it is not far away. Maybe it's just the inheritance and the exercises, but you..."
The corners of Shang Que's mouth twitched when he said that, the person in front of him was definitely an existence that could definitely be compared with the real Tianjiao of the Ten States, the only pity was that he was too young.
"Insist on ten moves?" Nangong Fan pondered for a while and nodded to show that he understood, his blood was boiling and his spiritual intelligence was almost blurred, he had previously delusionally thought of cutting off an underworld creature to play. But now it seems that it is extremely good to be able to protect yourself in it.
"Yes. After all, those are all spiritual cultivators, how can they suppress them, but the physical quality is there, and it is very difficult for you to hurt them, so you can basically only be beaten passively. Shang Que nodded in response.
"Let's start then!" Nangong Fan's eyes gradually became solemn, but he didn't mean to back down.
If you can't muster up the courage to be watched by someone at this time, if you go to the battlefield one day, how should you deal with yourself? The battlefield is not an ordinary death fight, there is no fairness, there is no distinction between good and evil, and there are only naked killings.
Humanity is among them, and it is very likely that they will encounter the gods who have come from the front line, blowing in one breath, and they will be wiped out.
Of course, most of humanity can't get on that kind of big battlefield, and they fight in some small places. Because the Three Realms are getting closer and closer, and there are even signs of becoming one, this world has long been very different from the ancient times, and many small worlds with limitations have been born.
"Very well, you're making my blood rush like this. Shang Que scolded with a smile.
Suddenly, chaotic qi rippled in the hall, and a little milky white brilliance slowly flickered and gradually magnified.
Nangong Fan's pupils froze...
This is a space, the sky is round, and the length and width are all 500 meters. In the middle of it was a black monster, on all fours, with horns on its head, and its slender tongue poking out of its bloody mouth, accompanied by green water stains, and faintly visible with shimmering and cold spikes. It's not even just a long tongue, it's full of spikes all over its body, which makes people feel chills when they look at it.
"Ghoul..."Nangong Fan muttered to himself.
"Yes, it's the ghouls. Shang Que's pupils flashed with a strange brilliance, and the little guy in front of him had extraordinary insight, which proved that he came from a certain big force.
Nangong Fan licked the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but recall the information about ghouls in his mind.
This is a kind of underworld creature with exaggerated upper and lower limits, and it can be said that it is everywhere in the hells of the entire underworld, some are at the bottom, it is the food of other races, and some are dominating the heavens.
This is exactly what I said earlier, the largest number of races, and even the armies of the underworld that invaded the human realm, most of them are such creatures. As for the name ghoul, it is also taken by the human race, this creature does not have to worry about rations in the battlefield at all, they can devour their own kind to make up for themselves, it can be described as a natural warrior, and it is also the existence that makes the human race the most troublesome.
According to the human race's ranking of the creatures in the underworld, it happens to be in the tenth, just because there has never been a supreme in this race who can really dominate a heaven and earth, if there is really one, with their huge number, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first creature in the underworld.
"Scared?" Shang Que smiled slightly.
"How can you be afraid?" Nangong Fan smiled indifferently. The appearance of the ghoul is exactly what he wants, and he will inevitably go to the battlefield in the future, which is something that every Terran monk must go through. And to understand ghouls, even if you understand most of the underworld army...
"You just need to walk in, and this ghoul will naturally reach the same level as you under the suppression of the formation. Shang Que said slowly, "Good luck, young man." ”
"Thank you!" Nangong Fan smiled, and his body began to leap with blood-colored sword intent. Step by step, step after step, walking slowly and firmly, after each step fell, the sword intent on his body was a little sharp.
The blood-colored sword intent is only to kill the enemy, and the advantages of sword cultivation are brought into full play, but the huge killing intent in it is also very easy for people to lose themselves. However, compared to the increase in combat power, this flaw is a little insignificant. 520
"What a heavy killing intent. "Shang Que's body is always surging with a quite natural atmosphere, not a little fireworks.
Nangong Fan's eyes at this time only had the ghoul whose pupils were like a sea of blood, standing silently in place, and there was nothing else.
He was already in a state of battle, and the outburst and the sand were the only thoughts he had on his mind.
Nangong Fan's body slowly squeezed into the space where the ghoul was trapped, and a trace of discomfort welled up in his heart, and he was quickly forcibly suppressed.
This is a space that can accommodate living creatures, not a small world, but it has not been managed by the Shang Alliance for millions of years like the first layer, there is only emptiness and nothingness here. No aura, no sunshine...
At this moment, Nangong Fan actually had a hint of admiration for this still energetic ghoul. Not to mention anything else, just because he can endure the loneliness and devastation of countless thousands of years, he deserves his respect.
Nangong Fan stood on the edge and looked at the ghoul in the center, his body was surrounded by the aura belonging to the spiritual path, which made him feel the pressure from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't dare to act rashly, and subconsciously tightened the black dragon sword in his hand.
"Shhhhh
A hiss exploded in the space.
Nangong Fan was terrified, and his body trembled subconsciously.
This is the coercion of high-level beings against people in the lower realms, and it is not something that can be easily ignored by courage alone, just like the power of the dragon, and even a little more violent.
Nangong Fan's heart was irrepressibly panicked, and he couldn't help but secretly complain, "This Shang Que can't be a grudge against me, right?"
He suspected that the formation that Shang Que had said earlier was a joke, and he just wanted to trap himself. Of course, he also knew that with his own strength, maybe it was just a thought flashing, and he would have to be annihilated.
Could it be that Shang Que has overlooked something?
This little omission is usually fine, but at this time, being in the same room with a spiritual ghoul is extremely fatal.
"Shhh ”
The ghoul's blood-like pupils gradually took on color, his long tongue flickered, and his furious aura permeated his body.
Nangong Fan only felt that his scalp was numb, and there seemed to be countless small ants crawling on his body, which was indescribably uncomfortable. Bow your head slightly, blood... It's all blood.
Just a roar full of energy left his body covered with scars.
"Damn! the gap is just too big. ”
Nangong Fan fell into an ice cave, quite at a loss.
The ghoul's pupils flickered, as if mocking the tiny foe ahead.
Nangong Fan's heart swelled with anger, he was just a prisoner, how dare he be so presumptuous? However, he really had no way to deal with this prisoner. Soon, he sensed something was wrong. "It stands to reason that this ghoul could destroy himself in an instant if he wanted to, but at this time he only roared twice, and did not make any other moves. ”
"This ghoul, can't move!"
Realizing this, the fear in Nangong Fan's heart instantly dispelled a lot, and he let go of his courage to look around.
"This ghoul has shackles on it!"
"Also, if there were no shackles to trap him in place, this broken space might not be able to trap him..."
Nangong Fan continued to stand on the edge, grimacing at the ghoul who was looking at him with murderous eyes, then turned around and twisted his ass towards this guy, twisting left and right.
The ghoul's pupils flickered with rage, and he was provoked by an ant-like creature, not to mention the underworld creature who would fight without saying a word, and he hatefully tore Nangong Fan apart.
However, he was still very calm and did not mean to move at all.
Although this is a ruined space, it is surrounded by formations, which will not really allow it to break through easily, and even the ghouls are actually asleep most of the time. But after all, he has lived in this space for more than 10,000 years, and although he can't crack the paroxysm and successfully escape, he has also found a set of quite useful methods.
This formation has many functions, one of which is suppression, and in the face of its suppressive cultivation effect, the best way is to "not move". As long as you use the unique method of the Upper Underworld to converge vitality, this formation will default to the fact that there is only Nangong Fan in it, how can you suppress the cultivation? What level of suppression?
Ghouls bully the rigidity of the formation without intelligence. Of course, he also knew that this was just a buffer, as long as Shang Que noticed this, he could easily let it "move". At that time, all problems will be solved.
The ghoul thought of this, and a trace of sadness appeared in his pupils. As a ghoul, he has broken through the limit to become a spiritual path cultivator, and he will inevitably reach the spiritual path extreme all the way, although the combat power of the same level is not as good as other underworld creatures, and he may break through the limit once and his status will rise sharply. What's more, when he was captured, he was still a young man, but now he is middle-aged... These days, he has often been fed various pills, and then he has been drawn blood to curb his strength...
Bitter, too bitter.
No wonder, after discovering the human world, the ancestors immediately decided to invade. These people, they all deserve to die!
The aura of the underworld surged, and the killing intent in the ghoul's heart was overflowing, and he no longer sat indifferently on the Diaoyu Tai.
He moved slightly, the shackles around him made a "crackling" sound, a trace of pain appeared on his hideous face, and blood stains appeared all over his body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The pressure Nangong Fan felt was drastically reduced, and in the blink of an eye, the ghoul in front of him had reached the same level as himself.
"It's so weak!" the shrill voice was very unpleasant.
Although it was impossible to understand the specific meaning of the words for a while, when the ghoul's words completely fell, he still understood what he was trying to say at the first time.
"This seems to be a voice from the soul?" Nangong Fan couldn't figure it out, so he replied casually, "Weak, aren't you here like this?"
"Well, there's some truth to that... Boy, can let that old guy from Shang Que let me be a sparring partner, it seems that you are his junior?" The ghoul stretched, and the spikes on his body stood up and began to flicker with cold light.
"Sort of. Nangong Fan nodded and replied, no matter what, as long as he is a strong person, he must be respected, and it is really not a big problem to say that he is a junior of Shangque.
"Are you ready to die?" the ghoul smiled, but the look at his face made people panic.
"The fear of death has to be tried to know what it is enduring. Nangong Fan smiled coldly.
"Oh?"
