128. Spike
The gray mist dispersed from the left and right, as if in a procession to greet some big man.
Ye Kong slowly walked out of the passage where the gray mist had dispersed.
Compared with the past, Ye Kong is now wearing a set of appearances that are quite in line with the aesthetics of this world: inside is a white robe with a cross-collared right side, which is bound by a belt embellished with gilt, silver, and jade, and on the outside of the white robe is a cyan cardigan transparent gauze that is as thin as a cicada's wings. On his feet were a pair of black high boots, embroidered with golden unknown beast patterns on both sides, which looked like both the four gods and the four fierce ones.
Ye Kong did not wear a crown on his head, and his long hair fell down to his waist, but in order to avoid the image of the cape, he still tied it up slightly with a jade sword-shaped bun.
The so-called people rely on clothes, Ye Kong at this time, the transcendent aura that flows up and down his body, anyone who sees it knows that it is extraordinary.
But it's a pity that Ye Kong's identity as a ghost cultivator destroys this strange feeling that brings people a powerful and extraordinary.
In the Shenzhou Continent, ghost cultivation is often associated with words such as brutal, bloody, cold, ruthless, and so on. Even if Ye Kong's image at the moment looked like an immortal, or a sage, the coercion brought to Jin Wuyin still tended to be terrifying.
The gray smoke that permeated the surroundings had begun to gradually receive.
They were like naughty bear children, wantonly noisy, playing, and tossing before Ye Kong officially appeared. But when Ye Kong, the master, appeared, these gray mist were like a well-behaved good boy, regrouping around Ye Kong, and then gradually merging into his cardigan robe.
Unlike all the gray mist that would spontaneously merge into Ye Kong's body before, the current gray mist looks more like Ye Kong's coat.
Or rather, the protective layer.
However, after gathering so much gray mist, the gauze-like robe on Ye Kong's body did not become thicker or darker in color because of this.
Liuli, who fell to the ground and thought that he would not be able to escape death, was finally able to see Ye Kong standing in front of him clearly after the gray mist completely subsided at this moment.
It's just that her eyes look a little complicated.
Liuli is not a fool, so from the moment Ye Kong's true body was born, she had already vaguely guessed the truth.
"Are you...... Ye Kong? However, she still needed a real answer, a confirmed answer from Ye Kong's mouth.
"Yes." Ye Kong glanced at Liuli, and there was a little apology in his eyes.
Ruri closed her eyes, and at this moment she seemed to have exhausted all the strength in her body, and did not speak again.
She just lay on the ground, exuding an air of dead silence.
Liuli is not stupid, on the contrary, she is also very smart, otherwise it would be impossible to have today's cultivation. 、
If she wanted to stay away from here, with the purple talisman hidden in her hand and the hidden Birth Realm cultivation, she would still not be able to capture her alive with the ability of Jin Wuyin.
But Ruri didn't do that.
In the final analysis, all the reasons were because she witnessed the palm that Ye Kong blocked for her.
She felt that she was too light on the enemy and owed Ye Kong a favor, so she felt guilty. She believes that if she can't avenge Ye Kong, then her state of mind will be damaged, and it will inevitably hinder her future cultivation.
Therefore, today, she must kill Jin Wuyin here.
As a descendant of the Mu family, it is naturally impossible for Liuli to be without the protection of his ancestors.
So in fact, in addition to the fact that she used the twelve gold chains to lock her body to hide her cultivation, she actually had a final life-saving hole card on her body.
It's just that the trigger condition for this life-saving hole card is that it must be a lethal threat to her.
It is for this reason that Liuli will choose to fight to the death with Jin Wuyin. For the possible humiliation of the end, Liuli had already expected it when she made up her mind to fight Jin Wuyin to the death. But this concern only surfaced slightly in her mind, and she was directly stifled by her, because compared to the premise of watching Ye Kong die tragically in front of her and choosing to retreat to break her mood, Liuli felt that she was more able to accept the humiliated end.
Of course, there is another conclusion that she herself still does not want to admit.
That is, she regards Ye Kong as her friend.
The only friend.
So when Ye Kong appeared as a ghost cultivator, Liuli almost didn't need any evidence and thinking, just based on intuition, she knew that the ghost cultivator in front of her was Ye Kong.
The friend who met from the underground mausoleum and experienced the test of life and death together in the cloudy secret realm.
Ruri's mood is not only complicated, but also a kind of anger and sadness that even she herself is not aware of.
Is it sadness for Ye Kong's true identity?
Or is it the anger that Ye Kong has something to hide?
Or is it both?
Ye Kong sighed lightly, and the look on his face also showed a bit of helplessness and sadness.
He would rather Liuli glaring at him, or a look of disdain, etc., but he would never want to see Liuli in front of him show such a dead and silent look. He knew very well that a person as strong as Liuli would show such a dead look, so there was only one explanation: there was already a gap between them.
For such a result, Ye Kong had actually expected it a long time ago.
The identity of a ghost cultivator is a taboo after all, and it can't be expected to be accepted by everyone - perhaps except for the most chaotic Southeast Continent, there is no place where a ghost cultivator can be accepted.
Therefore, when this identity was revealed, Ye Kong knew very well what he would face.
It's just that he doesn't have a choice.
Because he couldn't look directly at Liuli's death - if he didn't step forward to bear it for Liuli with the previous palm, then Liuli would definitely be dead at the moment. And this kind of price of bearing a palm, for Ye Kong, is just a disguised body that has been destroyed, although he has also lost, but this loss is not difficult to accept.
At least compared to losing a friend, Ye Kong felt that it was not worth bothering about just changing a shell.
Of course, in fact, at the beginning, Ye Kong planned to leave while he was killed by Jin Wuyin's punch - in fact, he did exactly that.
It's just that the development of things is not as smooth as Ye Kong expected. Especially when he saw that after Liuli unlocked the twelve gold chains, he was completely at a disadvantage, and was even about to face humiliation, Ye Kong could no longer sit idly by.
"Ugh." Ye Kong sighed lightly.
Liuli didn't want to communicate with Ye Kong anymore, and Ye Kong was also holding back a wave of anger in his heart, so he could only transfer all his anger to Jin Wuyin.
"Where do you want to go?"
Jin Wuyin originally wanted to take advantage of the difference in the condition of Ye Kong and Liuli and chose to escape.
Because of the aura emanating from Ye Kong's body, he had already fully felt the gap between them. The only thing that can make the monks of the Transformation Realm feel absolutely coercive is the cultivation of a power that is higher than that of the Transformation Realm monks.
In other words, the weakest cultivation of this ghost cultivator in front of him is also the Condensation Realm!
"I ......" Jin Wuyin opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
But before he could finish speaking, he felt a sudden darkness in front of him, and a huge force suddenly came from his face, and the next moment he could only feel a whirlwind of the sky, and a hot pain from all over his body.
Jin Wuyin only knew that he had been attacked by this ghost cultivator, and the whole person was directly thrown out. But as for what kind of means the ghost cultivator used to perform the attack, Jin Wuyin was completely confused.
However, the sharp pain coming from all over his body also made Jin Wuyin completely recognize the current situation.
He was sure that he had been attacked at least a hundred times in that moment. If it weren't for Ye Kong's every shot that left him with spare strength, I was afraid that at that moment, he would be beaten into pulp.
"This ......"
"That's how you dealt with Ruri just now." Ye Kong stood in front of Jin Wuyin, looking down at Jin Wuyin, his right foot on Jin Wuyin's chest.
Powerful coercion poured out from Ye Kong's body like waves.
Jin Wuyin couldn't tell whether it was because of Ye Kong's foot on his chest, or because of the coercion emanating from Ye Kong's body, he only felt that he had some difficulty breathing, and it was difficult to even speak.
A peculiar cracking sound seemed to ring in the ears of Jin Wuyin.
The sharp pain in his chest made him very clear that his sternum had begun to crack, if he allowed the ghost cultivator in front of him to continue to press on him like this, then even if he could survive in the end, the cultivation realm would definitely plummet.
At this time, Jin Wuyin didn't consider the possibility of whether he could survive or not.
"Please...... Forgive...... I ......" Jin Wuyin said with difficulty, because of the difficulty of breathing and the pain in his body, his face became a little pale, and there was no longer half of the monk's lofty posture, some of them were just like the low eyebrows of mortals.
Ye Kong stared at this Transformation Realm cultivator who had been invincible before, but was powerless to resist and struggle at this moment, and his eyes did not have the slightest sympathy and pity. He glanced at Liuli, who was silent with his eyes closed, and then his gaze fell back on Jin Wuyin's body, and his voice became much colder: "Forgive? This is non-existent. Don't say it's you, even the master behind you, I will find them one by one. ”
Jin Wuyin's face showed a look of disbelief, but before he could continue to speak, Ye Kong slammed his foot down.
The entire ground suddenly erupted with a loud roar.
Where Jin Wuyin was lying, a huge pit suddenly appeared.
He spurted out a mouthful of blood, and it seemed that he still had a breath of air, but he was not completely dead. It's just that since Ye Kong has already pronounced his death sentence, it is naturally impossible for him to live again: countless gray mist suddenly emitted from the robe on Ye Kong's body, and then quickly wrapped around Jin Wuyin's body.
The huge difference in strength made Jin Wuyin not even have the ability to resist.
In the cultivation realm, there was a chasm between each small realm that could almost be said to be a heavenly gap for ordinary monks, not to mention the large realm gap between the Transformation Realm and the Condensing Realm. This kind of gap in the Great Realm was enough to make any monk with extraordinary talents feel hopeless, let alone a Transformation Realm monk like Jin Wuyin, who had exhausted his potential and was completely lucky enough to break through by a little luck.
This is the monastic world.
A true world of the jungle.
After hearing a short, sharp and terrible scream, Jin Wuyin completely lost his struggle.
And those gray mist, or the fog of annihilation, also returned to Ye Kong's robe after solving the gold and silver problems. An abundant and familiar aura poured back into Ye Kong's body from the robe, making his aura suddenly increase a lot.
At this moment, Ye Kong knew that he was only one step away from breaking through the Condensing Fetal Realm.
After solving the problem of gold and silver, it was as easy as crushing an ant, Ye Kong walked back to Liuli.
But Liuli still didn't want to open her eyes, even though she knew that Ye Kong was standing next to her.
Ye Kong leaned down and stretched out his hand to try to pick up Liuli, but in exchange for a cold voice: "Don't touch me." ”
Ye Kong's hands stiffened slightly, but he didn't choose to listen to Liuli's words, and picked up Liuli very strongly. The latter symbolically struggled slightly, but perhaps due to excessive physical and mental exhaustion and injuries, she finally had to choose to give up resistance, and she had completely resigned herself to her fate.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Ye Kong hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
Liuli's ears moved slightly, and then he opened his eyes and stared at Ye Kong.
