Chapter 197: Dark Shadow

There were so many unexpected things that happened on this day, and all the cultivators' spirits were tense to the extreme, and people had been frightened by the unknown until now, but this time it was different.

This time, however, people were frightened by what they already knew.

"Hell!"

With Wan Yan's exclamation, everyone raised their heads in amazement to look at the scene in front of them.

In the faint moonlight, a dark figure stood.

He was dressed in black, almost blending in with the night, and there was no identity or age to tell. But what was even more terrifying than the black clothes was the mask on his face.

The black shadow's face was covered with a huge iron armor, which was particularly terrifying in the night.

Cold and hard, Shura hideous.

However, at this time, people's astonishment was not because of shock, but because of the surprise of finally seeing him.

I saw this character who knew that I would meet sooner or later, but I was surprised to see it at this time.

Wearing an iron armor mask and wearing a night suit.

"This ...... This is ......" A Northern Wei cultivator beside Meng Shi trembled, looked at his companion who was cut down by a sword, and suddenly sat on the ground with weak legs.

"Ghost ...... It's a ghost! The other cultivator clenched the sword in his hand, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and all his attention was on the black shadow.

Ghost.

Ying Baoyue looked at the black shadow in front of her without blinking.

The first person who saw this black shadow yelling was also this word.

The first time I saw this figure in the dark night forest, it was indeed very much like a ghost, but the reason why the cultivators were so shocked was not because it looked like a ghost.

It's the figure in front of him, whose name is indeed "ghost." ”

In the first round of the Beginner Ceremony, if the cultivator divides the challenges he faces into three levels, the first level is plants, and the second level is fierce beasts, then the third level is also the most sinister level.

It's a ghost.

This is a ghost, and it is also a human.

"What will happen in the first round of the Beginner Ceremony?" At this moment, Ying Baoyue's ears sounded the conversation between her and Ji Jiashu before the Elementary Ceremony.

"To put it simply, all cultivators need to stay in a mountain forest for three days, and there are many traps, beasts, and ...... Ghost. ”

"What the hell is it?" She asked at the time.

"It's a human disguise," the young man said at the time, "it's usually a high-level cultivator, as an opponent of the arrangement. ”

Dressed by people, it is not good.

Looking at the black shadow standing quietly under the tree wearing a Shura mask holding a snowy sword, Ying Baoyue clenched the sunset sword in his hand.

Is this what the so-called ghost is?

It is said that ghosts, as the biggest difficulty in the first round, usually only appear on the last day, but they are actually there in the first two days, and they will observe the weaknesses of each practitioner, and if they make a single move, they will not be able to prevent it.

Can't prevent it?

Has this person been observing all this for the past two days?

Ying Baoyue looked at the cultivator who had just been slashed down by that ghost sword, and found that although this person's aura was a little weaker, he was life-free, and it was more like being knocked out than being smashed.

"It's ...... Knife back? ”

She looked at the ghost figure under the tree, narrowed her eyes and whispered.

And at the moment when she spoke, the dark shadow under the tree shook slightly, and then his figure disappeared in an instant.

The rest of the people were creepy, looking around, and at this moment, Yinghuyue's pupils shrank.

"Meng Shi! Front! ”

Meng Shi's shoulder shook, and the next moment, with a violent click of swords, a cluster of sparks burst out of the darkness!

"Senior brother!"

"Stepson!"

Meng Shi's sword burst into flames, illuminating the terrifying scene in front of him.

Meng Shi held the sword in both hands, and the long sword in the hand of the black shadow in front of him was dead.

Ying Baoyue's eyes widened, she saw clearly what had just happened, the black shadow did not disappear in an instant, but his speed was too fast, and he went straight towards Meng Shi, and in an instant, he appeared in front of this person and slashed down with a sword.

This person came from the front, but Meng Shi was almost overwhelmed.

And the reason why he attacked Meng Shi was probably because Meng Shi was the strongest of their group at this time.

The two of them countered each other with their swords, seemingly indistinguishable from top to bottom, but the next moment Meng Shi's pupils shrank, and his steps retreated suddenly, and he actually withdrew ten zhang away.

There was a tooth-sore sound of the two swords rubbing together, and the sparks flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and the black shadow took the opportunity to bounce into the air, and Ying Baoyue raised his head suddenly, only to see that the person was as light as a swallow and was actually standing on the branch above their heads in an instant!

"He ......"

"Senior brother, are you alright?"

Mo Hua looked at the dark shadow on the tree, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, but the next moment he chose to rush to Meng Shi's side.

"I ...... It's okay, it's just ......" Meng Shi inhaled heavily with his sword, calmed the blood surging in his chest, and the next moment raised his head and looked at Mo Hua hoarsely, "I...... Not his opponent. ”

Mo Hua was stunned, and the other cultivators of the Northern Wei Dynasty instantly froze in place.

Although I guessed it at the beginning, it was still a huge impact when I actually saw it.

Ying Baoyue clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand, just now Meng Shi seemed to be able to fight with the black shadow sword, but in fact, the black shadow was at ease, but Meng Shi was just barely supporting.

If that black shadow was real, not to mention that Meng Shi was not his opponent, the rest of their group of people together would have no chance of winning.

"How...... How could this be......" The cultivators around Meng Shi trembled.

"Win...... Can't win. ”

Although he knew in advance that the ghost was a high-level cultivator, no one could have imagined that it would be so powerful.

It's no wonder that they will be like this, even if Meng Shi has no prestige as a cultivator in the Northern Wei Dynasty, everyone in the Northern Wei Dynasty knows that he is powerful.

After all, he was the one who won the first place in the battle for the first, and Meng Shiben, the stepson of the Northern Wei Dynasty, was one of the most powerful candidates for the top spot in this junior ceremony.

But at this time, even Meng Shi couldn't resist it, proving that as long as this ghost had that intention, he could wipe them out.

"We ...... What is going to be done......"

The Northern Wei cultivators were completely confused, and Meng Shi bit her lip.

She was not surprised by the strength of the ghost, after all, according to the previous rumors, the ghost was only one or two people at a time in the battle of the people, and how could it not be strong if it could stir up the storm with its own strength, this was not something that one person could fight.

It requires the cooperation of at least a few powerful cultivators.

But at this time, there are some rabble around her who can't cooperate, and just now these people are still thinking of killing a hundred by mistake and not letting go of one.

And at this moment, the sound of the wind sounded in the woods overhead, and at that moment, Meng Shi seemed to feel the gaze of the condescending gaze of the Shura mask, and then she suddenly had a premonition.

This man is coming down!

"The people of the Northern Wei Dynasty listen to the order! Everybody run to camp! Run! ”

Meng Shi bit the tip of her tongue violently, and a bunch of flames burst out from the tip of the sword, but the next moment the flame on the tip of her sword shook violently like a flame that had been blown out on a candle, and the next moment a cluster of shadows appeared on her forehead Meng Shi gritted her teeth and raised her head violently, the black shadow had already blocked the moon in the sky and flew down from the tree!

It's so fast!

A drop of cold sweat oozed from Meng Shi's forehead, and at this time, infinite brilliance also bloomed on the tip of Mo Hua's sword beside her, and behind her was the sound of hurried footsteps fleeing from the desert, but the sword light of that black shadow seemed to touch the tip of her nose in the next moment.

Catch up!

Meng Shi fell backwards suddenly, waving her arm violently as she fell, but what made her desperate was that the black shadow's sword was actually faster, faster than her faster than Mo Hua, her sword fell into the air and the breath of death was close at hand......

Click!

However, with a tooth-sore collision sound, Meng Shi smelled the smell of rust. Not her blood, but the smell of real rust.

Meng Shi opened her eyes in a daze and looked at a rusty sword stuck in front of her face.

But the next moment, her chest was numb, and someone bumped her away with her shoulder, Meng Shi stumbled suddenly, desperately raised her head and only saw the slender figure in front of her.

At the moment of sword light, she didn't expect that it was the girl who was the fastest.

But the next moment, she only heard a plop, and the woman who was blocking her in front of her in the sword light and flint was suddenly overwhelmed by the black shadow!

The long sword in the black shadow's hand slammed against Ying Baoyue's neck.

With a tooth-aching grinding sound, the girl barely held on to her rusty sword at a close distance.

"Winning ......"

Meng Shi stretched out her hand and spoke in amazement, but the next moment it seemed to be her hallucination, and the black shadow overlapping together and Ying Baoyue actually glanced at her at the same time.

The eyes of both of them closed quickly, everything was like a dream, Meng Shi was stunned suddenly, and there was a scream from the Northern Wei people behind her.

"No matter, let's run first!"

"What about the stepson?"

"Take advantage of this black shadow to attack the former Qin people, let's run quickly!"

Meng Shi was stiff and at a loss, but the next moment, a cold hand suddenly grabbed her hand, and she looked at Mo Hua beside her in shock.

"Trust me, she'll be fine," Mo Hua said quickly in a voice that only she could hear, and jerked her back, "Follow me!" ”

"I ......" Meng Shi was at a loss, but the next moment he looked at the girl in front of him and tilted his head slightly, as if he made a gesture to her.

"Senior brother!" Mo Hua shouted.

Meng Shi gave up struggling, and then she and Mo Hua grabbed the corpse on the ground and the fainted cultivator one by one, and then pulled Mo Hua away.

The voices faded away.

The forest was quiet, and only the grinding of swords could be heard.

The moonlight sprinkled faintly, and the black shadow pressed down the knife, holding the moon and blocking the sword, the two of them seemed to be closely together, but there was a sword between them.

In the extreme distance, through the cold iron face, the two of them looked into their eyes.

It's quiet.

A faint cool breeze blew through the woods, blowing past the two of them.

A little firefly rose in the darkness, it was a firefly in the grass.

The fireflies reflected the girl's eyes.

The moment the four eyes met, the pupils in the black shadow iron face shook for a moment, and he was about to look away, but the next moment he only heard the girl under him suddenly speak quietly.

"Why are you here?"

The black shadow shook suddenly, and the whole person froze.
