Chapter 31: Shadow Attack
Zhongli and Chongming Bird have been in the vast mountain range for a long time, and the spirit beasts are extremely frequent at night, which has also developed the habit of not sleeping at night and meditating and cultivating.
When the monk sent by the City Lord's Mansion came to the outside of the Xuanguang Temple, he felt the huge heaven and earth aura constantly pouring into the temple, and the monk who was called the shadow was a little shocked when he saw it.
It was already the third watch, looking at the dim moonlight, it was the most suitable moment for the shadow spiritual skill, and I originally wanted to enter the temple to kill the monk who helped Cao Chun, but I felt this huge heaven and earth aura, and I couldn't help but hesitate.
"Could it be that the powerhouse of the Yuanwu Realm, doesn't it mean that the monk is just a young man? Could it be that there are other people here?" the shadow muttered softly.
After struggling for a while, the shadow, who was confident in his shadow attack and killing technique, decided to sneak in and investigate first.
If he is really a powerhouse in the Yuanwu Realm, and he can say the name of Elder Chen who is sitting in Sunset City, presumably that person will also give some face, so as not to embarrass himself.
The man came closer, not as if he was passing by. Chongming Bird stood on Zhongli's shoulder and said softly.
It turned out that when the shadow was close to the Xuanguang Temple fifty meters away, it touched Zhongli's cloth mechanism, and it was discovered early.
When Zhongli heard this, he didn't make a sound, and after stopping his cultivation, he stood up, blew out the lights in the temple, and jumped on the beam.
After Zhongli had done all this, he asked Chongming Bird, "What realm can you feel about him?"
Chongming Bird shook his head lightly and said, "Come in." ”
Zhongli wondered how he hadn't sensed someone coming in, hadn't moved over the wall, and hadn't opened the door to come in, but he knew that Chongming Bird was more sensitive than him, and he wouldn't feel wrong.
At this moment, Zhongli was also cautious, holding his breath, the enemy is dark and he is clear, and others are prepared, they must not be good.
Just as Zhongli was cautiously listening to the movement, Chongming Bird suddenly exclaimed in his ear: "Watch to the left!"
Zhongli subconsciously looked at it, only to see a shadow coming quickly with a dagger in his hand, and he was shocked in his heart, what kind of spiritual skill is this?
Chongming Bird had already said that Zhongli couldn't speak in front of people, and at this time, he was really forced to speak, and the person who came was actually an extremely difficult shadow killer.
Those who practice the Shadow Spiritual Skill are very suitable for fighting in the dark, and they can transform into shadows in the moonlight, which is extremely difficult.
The shadow spirit technique practiced by the monk codenamed Shadow was extremely clear in the dark shadows, and a person and a bird were squatting on the beams of the house, originally wanting to sneak attack and test, but suddenly heard the fiery red bird spit out words, and he was also taken aback, and paused for a moment.
Shadow Xiu's spiritual technique was originally used to kill people, and then he paused for a moment, but his speed was still extremely fast, and he stabbed towards Zhongli.
Zhongli fought against all kinds of spirit beasts in the Forest of Dead Bones, and there was no shortage of some enlightened, treacherous and cunning spirit beasts who liked to sneak attack, and their reaction was also extremely fast at this moment.
Zhongli separated his hands and sealed the seal, and at the same time performed two spiritual skills, 'Fire Spirit Protector' and 'Wind Walk'.
In an instant, the whole person was shrouded in fiery red runes, and a fiery red battle suit immediately appeared on his body, and cyan runes appeared under his feet, Zhongli's speed increased suddenly, and he took two steps back sharply, and stretched out a punch.
Both sides exerted their spiritual power at this moment, and each other felt each other's realm, and the ninth order of the Mortal Martial Realm Shadow sneered in his heart, and slammed into Zhongli's fist without retreating or avoiding.
And Zhong Li felt that the shadow was a fifth-order cultivation of the Lingwu Realm, and he was also a lot relieved, after all, there were quite a few ninth-order spirit beasts of the Lingwu Realm hunted in the vast mountain range.
It's just that Zhongli felt that this shadow's spiritual skill was quite weird, and it could actually turn into a dark shadow, and its combat power seemed to be extremely high.
Boom!
The dagger stabbed into Zhongli's fist, and the shadow was startled, and instead of inserting it into the back of his hand as he expected, it let out a loud thud that hit steel.
The Shadow feels bad and wants to retreat, and as an assassin, the Shadow Envelope's principle has always been to retreat if it misses, and then look for an opportunity again.
Accustomed to the shadow of sneak attacks and assassinations from behind, he will never fight people head-on, even if the enemy's realm is lower than him, not to mention that the ninth order of this mortal realm in front of him cannot be judged according to common sense.
But Zhongli didn't give him this chance, Zhongli's other punch had already swung and slammed into the shadow head, and the two punches arrived almost at the same time, as if he had already expected that the dagger would not be able to hurt him.
The shadow had no way to hide, so he could only reach out to block it, trying to retreat with his strength.
In his opinion, Zhongli's physical body was amazingly hard, but after all, the realm was a little lower, and it shouldn't hurt him.
Boom!
Instead of blocking Zhongli's fist, the shadow was knocked away by a punch and slammed into the beam, making a loud noise, and the pillar broke a lot and fell.
"Poof!" Shadow spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at Zhongli and the Chongming Bird on the beam like a freak.
The fiery red bird with a mouthful of words can actually see through his shadow attack killing technique, and the young monk with an extremely strong body can actually hurt him by crossing the border.
At this time, the shadow has been injured, and he just wants to evacuate temporarily, tell him, and make plans again.
When Zhongli saw that the shadow was knocked out by himself, he immediately cast a 'spirit circle' and threw it away.
The thought in his heart was only for a moment, and when the shadow saw the spiritual skill, since he was ready to retreat first, he naturally would not be entangled any further.
The shadow who has always been cautious even threw the dagger out and gave up the spiritual weapon.
The dagger was black and lightless, and its speed was extremely fast, and it flashed through the middle of the 'Beam Spirit Circle' and flew towards Zhongli's eyes.
The shadow didn't care if the dagger worked and hurt Zhongli, and immediately used his spiritual skills, turning into a shadow again, and wanted to escape.
Zhongli stretched out his hand to block the dagger, after all, he was a step too slow, the 'Spirit Circle' did not trap the shadow, he had already rushed out of the gate.
The heavy bird was in a hurry at this time, it was inconvenient to make a move, and when it saw the shadow, it was about to get out of their sight, and couldn't help shouting: "Can't let him go!"
After speaking, the Chongming Bird no longer watched the battle, and rushed out first, out of the temple, it recovered its body in mid-air, and turned into a three- or four-meter-long Chongming Bird, with one eye and two pupils, and a sharp fiery red feather, chasing towards the shadow.
The shadow looked back and saw the body of the heavy bird, his eyes shrank, this bird was open, and he could speak and change the size of his body.
He didn't know the Ten Fierce Ancients, but he spoke out people's words, and the size of his body could change was the first time he had seen a spirit beast, and he also knew that this bird was by no means simple, and it was even more difficult than that monk in the Mortal Martial Realm.
Zhongli's physical body is hard, beyond common sense, and he can still be cultivated with his body, but this huge bird and beast, with the aura of a king, is really a great power above the Earth Martial Realm.
The Chongming Bird that transformed back into its main body was extremely fast, although it had only recovered the cultivation of the fifth order of the Spirit Martial Realm, but as one of the ten ancient murderers, it was not comparable to the shadow at all, and it chased to the top of the shadow's head with one breath.
"Run, die!" said the bird landed in front of the shadow, blocking his way.
The shadow knew that he had kicked the iron plate tonight, and the spirit beast caught up with him in a blink of an eye, extremely fast, and the young monk from behind also came, and couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.
In his opinion, Chongming Bird was most likely a powerful person in the Earth Martial Realm who had hidden the realm, and he had been injured by his carelessness.
The shadow was helpless, and did not dare to risk breaking through desperately, so he could only solve his spiritual skills, recover his body, and change back into his human form.
After recovering his body, the shadow immediately clenched his hands into fists, bowed his head and said to the heavy bird: "The juniors don't know that the seniors are meditating here, and they are so offended. ”
"The monk in Sunset City is friendly with my city lord, please let me go, and the juniors will try their best to make up for the mistakes made tonight. ”
After the shadow finished speaking, he didn't dare to raise his head, and his waist was bent extremely low, as if to express his respect.
He was quite nervous at the moment, holding his breath, and even hearing his own heartbeat, hoping that the other party could give face to the monk sitting in Sunset City.
Chongming Bird and Zhongli glanced at each other, and Zhongli slashed at the shadow's neck from behind with a very tacit understanding, and the shadow was stunned.
After Zhong Li squatted down to investigate, he found a token of the City Lord's Mansion, looked at Chongming Bird and said with a solemn face: "It's the City Lord of Sunset City, and mortals actually collude with monks." ”
"Xiaohuo, you are too impulsive, if it is exposed, there will be big trouble, every mortal city is a monk from Yanji City, in case a powerful senior comes to arrest you, it will be over. ”
Seeing that the shadow had been stunned, Chongming Bird quickly turned back to the size of a little sparrow, flew to Zhongli's shoulder, and said with a nervous expression: "He knows my existence, so he can't stay." ”
"The Shadow Psychic is extremely good at escaping and assassinating, and if I don't make a move, you may not be able to catch up with him. Chongming Bird looked at Zhongli with a serious face and said.
Zhongli heard Chongming Bird say this, and nodded solemnly, sure enough, there are all kinds of wonders in the world, and he is still too weak.
If there is no reminder from the heavy bird tonight, he will be killed by the shadow assassination technique, and it is really not certain who will kill the deer.
In the end, it was the Chongmingbird who risked being exposed to stop the Shadow Killer.
If the shadow hadn't thought about it so much and tried his best to escape, the heavy bird might have really been exposed.
As long as the spiritual skills are used and the breath is transmitted, the people who know the ten fierce ancients will definitely not let it go, and the Chongming Bird of the Spirit Martial Realm will have too weak self-protection ability after all.
