Chapter 29: The Mystery
Feeling Wu Xi's gaze glancing at him, Zhang Tianai winked innocently at Wu Xi.
Wu Xi's hair stood up all over his body in an instant, and he shivered!
At this moment, the old man shouted: "There is a flaw!
I saw a long sword slashing over Wu Xi's head, and finally the tip of the sword stayed at about an inch above Wu Xi's head.
At the moment when the long sword slashed over Wu Xi's head, no one present except the old man noticed that the long sword had cut an invisible black line.
This is connected to Wu Xi's forehead at one end, and the other end is connected to the green flute. This is completely invisible to the black line, and ordinary people and ordinary things are not touched at all.
The moment the old man's long sword slashed at it, the sword body glowed with a red light, and where the red light reached, the black line broke instantly, and then turned into a puff of black smoke and dissipated into the air.
The moment everyone saw the old man's sword slashing towards Wu Xi, accompanied by Wu Xi's extremely painful scream, there was also a trace of black smoke above his head.
The green flute broke free from Wu Xi's body, glowing with turquoise light, as if it was resisting something.
The long sword above Wu Xi's head, with the blessing of the old man, was constantly glowing with red light and the sound of swords.
Bang...
With the long sword and the green flute as the center, accompanied by Wu Xi's somewhat exaggerated voice, an air wave burst out in the air.
Almost all of them went backwards.
When everyone regained their footing and looked at Wu Xi, the green flute had fallen to the ground, the long sword had returned to its scabbard, and the room had returned to its original quiet.
Wu Xi stood in place sweating profusely, feeling sorry for the extreme pain just now.
But at this moment, he felt a special coolness, as if a shackle in his body had been broken, and as if he had become freer.
"This is?" Wu Xi looked at the old man with some confusion.
The old man looked at Wu Xi, who looked puzzled, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "I have cut off the connection between you and that flute, and the demon in your body has been temporarily sealed." ”
"Now you are free for the time being, and you will not be affected by the demonic nature in your body, but you must remember that one day, he will still break the seal, and at that time, everything will depend on you. ”
His face suddenly became serious, and his tone became heavy.
"Remember, my fate is up to me! One day, you're going to break it all. ”
"Alright, then you can rest well! Master, I should also go. ”
The old man's tone revealed this faint reluctance, but he didn't say much, and left here directly with his sword.
Wu Xi was still thinking about what the old man had just said, and when he was about to react, he found that the old man's figure had disappeared from his sight.
At this moment, he felt a transmission: "Boy, be careful of everyone in Avalon, Avalon's back is not simple. The deserted city is in chaos, the blood demon is about to appear, and the culprit is by your side. Don't die!"
It was the old man's voice, and his tone seemed very relaxed, as if he was not worried about Wu Xi at all.
"Master!" Wu Xi felt a little melancholy in his heart, he knew that the old man had really left him this time, and he didn't know when the next time they met.
Immediately, he thought about what the old man had just told him about the Blood Demon.
Blood Fiend, transformed from a blood corpse, can be said to be an upgraded version of a blood corpse.
The blood corpses I saw before at least have the ability to enlighten the spirit, so the blood demons that turn into them will at least reach the realm of the lower strings.
But even the middle string realm shouldn't affect Avalon! You know, in Avalon, the lower string is the standard, and the middle string is as many as a dog, not to mention that there are strong towns like the Ten Chiefs.
However, the old man's reminder can't be ignored, he can't remind himself of this matter for no reason, and more importantly, he said that the culprit who caused this incident is by his side, which makes Wu Xi feel extremely confused.
The people around him are quite familiar to him, no! He suddenly thought of Zhang Tianai, an ordinary person, but he has an unusual flute, and he has such a big connection with himself, is this a coincidence or something.
There is also Jiusan'er, this guy looks honest, completely because he thinks he controls her life, but, the angel clan, this is worth playing!
Thinking of this, Wu Xi remembered Jiusan'er's previous ruthlessness, and his heart involuntarily hurt again.
He couldn't forget how desperate his heart was when he was tied to the Zhushen Pillar himself, the most helpless himself, in the face of Jiusan'er's ruthless expression and cold voice!
He shook his head, not thinking about it for a while, the most important thing now was about the Blood Demon.
The Blood Demon originated from the Blood Corpse, and the Blood Corpse has a huge relationship with Han Yunxue's grandfather, his initial purpose in entering Avalon was to investigate this matter, and now it seems that everything has returned to square one!
The next day, Wu Xi woke up from meditation and felt refreshed.
The injuries left on his body have healed, and it is time for him to leave, but before that...
Thinking about it, the corners of Wu Xi's mouth showed a wicked smile.
The Spiritual Pagoda, Xu Tao's retreat, welcomed a special guest today.
"Little Brother Wu, what's the matter with your body, is there anything uncomfortable, just say it, this matter was originally caused by the academy's inability to deal with it, what can you say. Xu Tao looked at Wu Xi who was sitting in front of him and said.
"Chief Lord, thanks to the blessing of the Academy, the disciple's injuries have healed. "Wu Xi has no skin this time.
"You kid, what are you polite to me, just call me big brother. I think back then, if it weren't for your master and his old man, I wouldn't be where I am today, alas! If it weren't for ......" Xu Tao wanted to speak and stopped.
When Wu Xi heard Xu Tao mention the old man, he immediately came to his senses, but he didn't expect that since Xu Tao stopped talking at the critical moment, it made him feel uncomfortable, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
"Oh, by the way, what is the matter with you coming to me this time, don't worry, as long as it's in Avalon, there's nothing I can't do, you just mention it. ”
Feeling the solidification of the atmosphere, Xu Tao immediately changed the topic.
"Oh, it's like this, Brother Xu..."
Wu Xi and Xu Tao explained what they had seen and heard in the deserted city before, and explained the harm caused by this, as well as the threat of blood demons, but he did not say that it was the old man's reminder to him, he always remembered that the old man told him that the culprit was by his side, and in this case, Xu Tao was also the culprit behind the scenes.
Xu Tao listened to what Wu Xi said, he didn't think much about it, just waved his sleeves and said to Wu Xi, "We don't care about things outside the academy, Avalon will always remain neutral in this city and on the earth, we are only to teach people, no matter what disputes." ”
Saying that, he looked at Wu Xi again and smiled: "Don't worry, at least on the earth, no one can threaten Avalon!"
Wu Xi looked at Xu Tao's confident appearance, and knew that he believed in himself and the absolute power of Avalon, but this was a reminder from the old man!
"Brother Xu, do you know that although the blood corpse will not pose a threat to Avalon, these blood demon mutations can occur at the gate of Avalon!
"The point is that this will also affect Avalon's reputation! If people know that we Avalon let these blood demons go, they will think that we Avalon are raising these blood corpses. ”
"What's more, what if our Avalon disciples are injured, and continue to tolerate the development of these blood demons, I think even our Avalon disciples will always be careless. ”
"Also, have you ever wondered..."
"And, there'......"
.........
Wu Xi said at once the disadvantages of dozens of blood demons to Avalon, while Xu Tao frowned slightly, while pretending to listen very carefully, he wanted to interrupt Wu Xi several times in the middle, but finally held back. However, his eyebrows have become a glimmer of heaven.
After listening to Wu Xi's words for a while, Xu Tao finally spoke.
"Ahem... In this case, you go to the academy and pick a few people to go with you to the deserted city to investigate this matter, and after finding out the reason, we will deal with this matter. ”
Wu Xi looked at Xu Tao with staring straight eyes, and Xu Tao felt a little furious in his heart.
"Oh! By the way, you better play the strings, I see that you are already at the peak of the lower strings, and you are about to break through, so let's take my warrant, go to the Treasure Pavilion, choose some string elixirs, and break through early!"
As he spoke, Xu Tao took out a golden Xuanwen warrant from his sleeve.
After receiving the warrant and feeling the slightest coolness coming from it, Wu Xi felt that his hard work had finally paid off.
Alas, the mouth has become dry until now. Fortunately, there was a return for writing.
Thinking about it, he also threw away the warrant in his hand, well!
Leaving Xu Tao's retreat, Wu Xi went directly to the Treasure Pavilion and retrieved a few string elixirs.
Looking at the good elixir in his hand, Wu Xi's mood became much happier, you must know that the string spirit pill is the best effect of gathering spirit and absorbing qi, and it is of great help to the entire string realm, and now the breakthrough has finally fallen.
I always felt that something was missing before, and I believed that with the help of the string elixir, I would definitely be able to break through easily.
"Breakthrough, little meaning," Wu Xi said with a smile.
In a dense forest in Avalon, Wu Xi sat cross-legged on the ground, exuding a mysterious aura around him.
After he swallowed the String Spirit Pill, he felt that the spiritual power in his body had reached a limit, but for some reason, he just couldn't break through, and he always felt that there was a thin film blocking his way.
"Isn't it okay? Wu Xi whispered.
He didn't know that at this moment, above his head, thunderclouds were constantly gathering.
"No, this time it must be, it must break through. ”
Wu Xi took out all the string spirit pills in his hand, and looking at the majestic spiritual power exuded by the string spirit pills, Wu Xi paused, and finally swallowed them all.
A huge force burst out within him, constantly impacting the film that was vaguely sensed.
Wu Xi's body surface temperature is also rising, and his whole body is glowing red.
At that moment, a bolt of lightning slashed downward.
