Chapter XXIII: The Eve
"Is this where the other party is hiding?" In the thick of the night, several figures appeared by a huge lake. Mo stood on the shore and turned to ask the person who was guiding him.
"Yes, Your Highness Mo, that 'monster' is hiding in this lake. According to the previous exorcists, it seems that they are hiding on a small island in the middle of the lake. However, the island was set up by the other party, and we ordinary people couldn't find its location. The captain of the guard on the side nodded and explained.
"I see......" Mo closed his eyes, and the world in front of him was completely plunged into darkness for a moment.
Then, in that imperceptible horizon of the underworld, the darkness was lit up again. Like a drop of water falling on the calm surface of the lake, ripples swept by, and countless surrounding scenery was re-lit one by one.
The falling leaves, the fluttering insects, the chirping birds, and even the invisible breeze, everything was re-colored in an instant.
However, unlike the normal colorful world of the past, the only colors left in this 'world' are black and white. At this moment, the 'world' is like an ink painting, slowly spreading out in front of the ink's eyes.
And as time passed, in just a blink of an eye, the 'picture scroll' shrouded most of the lake. On this 'picture scroll', all the phenomena of heaven and earth, no matter how big or small, no matter how moving, are all included in the 'eyes'.
Mo's eyes opened suddenly, and a ghostly light flashed, and he found ......
The other party didn't seem to deliberately hide it, and the trick he laid was just to block the prying eyes of ordinary people. It's no wonder that the exorcists from before were able to find the door so easily.
Mo slowly put his hand on the long sword at his waist, lowered his gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, you can go back." I'll take care of the rest. ”
Hearing this, the crow on the side nodded yes, and the next moment the figure disappeared in place. Of course, he didn't really leave like that, but hid to avoid disturbing Mo's battle.
And the captain of the escort team who led the way and several soldiers on the side looked at each other for a few moments, and then clasped their fists and said, "Your Highness Mo, we have received an order from the head of the family that we must wait here for His Highness's victorious return. Please forgive me. ”
Mo's gaze rolled slightly, and he glanced at them, "Then it's up to you." But I'd suggest you'd better back off, because I may not be able to take care of you when the fight begins. ”
"Yes!"
Although it should be, the other party didn't mean to move his position at all, and still stood straight in place. And Mo didn't bother to pay attention to them anymore, this time the opponent was afraid that the strength was not simple. Later, if the aftermath of the fight swept away them, it would be their own doing.
With his left hand resting on the long sword at his waist, Mo took a step forward. In an instant, the ground under his feet seemed to tremble slightly, and an invisible and massless impact swept around in an instant. The guards who had been standing in place suddenly took several steps backwards.
Just when they felt confused, Mo had already taken the second step, and at this moment, an even stronger sense of invisible impact came, and everyone couldn't help but retreat one after another. And the leading captain of the guard looked at the figure in front of him with a horrified face, this, momentum?
Although he had also heard that there were some strong people who could turn the formless momentum into an actual impact, even those who had advanced swordsmanship also had the so-called 'eyewitness' swordsmanship. But he always thought that this was nothing more than an exaggerated claim. But at this moment, he had to believe that those rumors were true.
Before he could clear his mind again, Mo's third step had already been taken. This step falls directly into the surface of the lake. But Mo's figure did not fall with it, but stepped directly on the water.
With a bang, the 'thunder' sounded, and the guards felt a terrifying roar explode in their ears in a trance. Thunder? No, no, although there are a few dark clouds in the sky, there is no thunder at all. Wait, wait...... Heaven, heavenly?
The guards turned their gaze to the sky in disbelief, and then saw something unbelievable.
"God, the sky is cracking?!" One of the guards muttered unconsciously.
In the eyes of the guards, the huge dark clouds that were originally floating in the sky seemed to be pierced and torn apart by an invisible force at this moment, until they were completely divided and scattered. The sky, at this moment, in their eyes, was forcibly cut open by an invisible sword!
And the full moon hiding behind the dark clouds also reappeared, once again sprinkling the silver and white light on the world. No, in fact, Yuehua has always been there, but at this moment, the brilliance is even worse, completely enveloping the entire lake.
Mo raised his head, his gaze seemed to pierce countless distances, and he directly 'looked' at the location of his target.
……
It was late at night, and after a day and a night of recuperation, Ah Li's body had recovered most of it. Now he is continuing to discuss with Huiyin about the unknown 'monster', as well as the upcoming enemy, Sword Saint Mo.
"Teacher Huiyin, you must be careful, even I have heard a lot about the deeds and rumors of that Sword Saint. His strength is definitely not comparable to those guys before him. Ali looked solemn.
"Don't worry, you're just a human. Although I hate to say this, an ordinary human being, even if he is the best among his cultivators, is still nothing more than a 'human' to me. Hui Yin patted her little hand and told her to relax, "After cleaning up this so-called 'Sword Master', I will start to lift out that 'monster'." ”
"Teacher Huiyin!" Ali looked anxious, he had already told everything he had heard about it, why did the other party still not take the other party seriously. Although she didn't know anything about combat, she also understood the truth that arrogant soldiers would be defeated.
Huiyin looked at Ah Li's appearance and smiled, "Ah Li, I understand your feelings. Don't worry, I don't mean to underestimate my opponent, but you also have to understand that your Huiyin teacher's strength is definitely not so much! ”
Ali was stunned, it was the first time she had seen the other party show such a confident and strong side in front of her. It turns out that she used to show her wisdom, but she also has such a 'powerful' place.
Nodding silently, Ah Li quickly figured out that his futile worries were meaningless, and the only thing he could do now was to believe in Huiyin.
"Well, Teacher Huiyin, I understand, I believe in you. But if you can, I still hope that this Sword Master can come over later. It's best after we find out the truth of the matter and find out the real culprit. That's the best outcome. Although he knew that this was unlikely, Ah Li still looked forward to it.
Hehe, Huiyin smiled, and was about to say something. Then his face suddenly changed, and he suddenly stood up and looked out of the house.
"What's wrong? Did something happen? Seeing this scene, Ah Li suddenly felt a strong sense of foreboding in his heart, but he still asked with a glimmer of hope.
I saw that Huiyin's face became unprecedentedly solemn, staring in a certain direction, and said in a low voice: "It seems that this rumor has some credibility......
Then he turned his head, with a hint of apology on his face, "Ah Li, I apologize to you for what I just said, it seems that it is really just like what you said, and the strength of the opponent who came this time should not be underestimated." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, your expectation that you won't have a conflict with the other party is going to be disappointed, the 'Juggernaut' you mentioned, he's here......"
