Chapter 21 Gu Chi's hole cards
"Boom"
As Jiang Xiaoqi struck the illusory palm print and blasted Wang Zhong into the ground, there was an uproar in the crowd outside the main hall, and everyone looked at the young figure standing in the field, their eyes full of awe. Being able to cross the great realm with the strength of Yangxi Realm and defeat Wang Zhong at the peak of the four peaks, Jiang Xiaoqi has undoubtedly become the focus of the audience at this moment, and the powerful strength he showed impressed countless people present, and for a while people couldn't help but start to speculate whether this young man who looked quite strange had a strong background behind him.
"This guy is a bit of a puzzle. ”
Like everyone outside the field, whether it was Yan Hao, who was standing aside at the end of the battle, or Huo Xin'er, whose eyebrows were gradually soothing, there was a touch of amazement in the eyes of the young man in the field. Even an outstanding disciple of the Holy Land like Yan Hao was shocked by Jiang Xiaoqi's achievements, and there was a hint of admiration in his words, he clasped his hands, and couldn't help but smack his lips and muttered softly.
"The nerd dared to fool me by pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. ”
Compared with Yan Hao's shock, Huo Xin'er's heart was undoubtedly the strongest. She has been paying attention to Jiang Xiaoqi since she entered Qingshan Town, but the last time she glanced at it in the jungle, Jiang Xiaoqi only brought her a strange feeling, not a shock in strength. After all, when Huo Xin'er saw him for the first time, Jiang Xiaoqi's strength was only in the middle of the Yangxi Realm, and his strength was inconspicuous among the martial artists, and he couldn't match the young man in front of him with the embarrassed figure she had seen in the woods.
"Ahem"
Compared with the shock of everyone, at this time, Jiang Xiaoqi was tormented, and there was a sense of prostration that had never been felt before on his body, with the dissipation of the huge phantom behind him, Jiang Xiaoqi's body was like a paralyzed patient, he staggered two steps, and after stabilizing his body, his legs were bent and sat on the ground, his brows were compact, his face showed a painful expression, and he felt the feeling of weakness coming from his body.
Compared to the Qu Chi that was full before, now the spiritual power surging in his body is scarce and pitiful, only the origin of Qu Chi is like a spring water bubbling up, nourishing the azure water spirit origin in it, and the Qu Chi under his current can almost be described as dry.
Compared to the feeling of prostration caused by Qu Chi, the emptiness of soul power is the most deadly. After opening up the soul sea, Jiang Xiaoqi's soul power can be regarded as a qualitative leap, from the initial unpredictability to the current random change of form, it is obvious that Jiang Xiaoqi, who opened up the soul sea, has made great progress in soul power.
However, at this time, Jiang Xiaoqi's soul sea was empty, and the pain of peeling off the cocoon seemed to make his whole mind explode, and his soul seemed to be extracted at this moment, and the feeling of collapse that exploded was something he had never felt. The heart-rending pain made his whole body tremble, and a hideous expression appeared on his face with his eyes closed, which showed what kind of pain Jiang Xiaoqi was enduring at this time.
The great pain was the sequelae of the almost strange offensive, and the illusory figure condensed behind Jiang Xiaoqi was the spiritual skill recorded in the codex left by Old Man Shi at the beginning. The Great Compassion Hand is one of them, and this spiritual skill has become more and more proficient in his hands over time. However, in general, the spiritual skills recorded in the Codex are only a one-move move, and its power is limited, which makes it gradually show its decline in cross-level combat. In the battle of the same level, the blessing of the origin fragment gave Jiang Xiaoqi a strong spiritual power advantage, but when he faced a genius disciple like Wang Zhong, the disadvantage of the Great Compassion Hand would be revealed.
He had tried to comprehend the codex outside of Dabei's hand, but he couldn't find a clue until a few days ago, when he accidentally opened up the soul sea, and the obscure places in the codex were easily solved, and it was at that time that Jiang Xiaoqi found that the spiritual skills recorded in the codex actually needed to use soul power to cultivate.
Compared to the Great Compassion Hand, the spiritual skill he used just now was not a domineering offensive that swept Liuhe, but an extremely special secret method, which could unearth his own strength from the inside out, which was his current understanding of this spiritual skill. Although he didn't know much in his heart, with his intuition, Jiang Xiaoqi could feel that the spiritual skills recorded in the codex were not extraordinary, and sure enough, the ending was obvious, but what Jiang Xiaoqi didn't expect was that the secret method recorded in the codex would have strong sequelae, bringing him such a sense of pain from prostration, it seems that this spiritual skill is a double-edged sword, and it is better to touch it less in the future.
"Nerd, are you alright. ”
After dealing with the remaining two, Huo Xin'er swept away, flashed in front of Jiang Xiaoqi, bent down lightly, and looked at the painful look on his face with beautiful eyes, and a trace of worry appeared on his pretty face.
"It's okay, I can't die yet. ”
Hearing the call in his ears, Jiang Xiaoqi raised his eyes in pain, looked at Huo Xin'er who came to his face, forced out a smile, and replied with a slightly hoarse voice.
"Now we know that heroes come at a price. ”
Seeing Jiang Xiaoqi speak, Huo Xin'er's hanging heart eased slightly, her eyes looked at his pale cheeks, and she said with a bit of resentment in her words.
"It's up to me, but I didn't expect that guy to be so strong. ”
Looking at Huo Xin'er's slightly resentful expression, Jiang Xiaoqi smiled helplessly, the scene of the battle just now echoed in his mind, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said with a sigh.
"Okay, the matter here is not over yet, now please ask Miss Xin'er to help me protect the Fa. ”
Glancing at the increasingly fierce battle not far away, Jiang Xiaoqi groaned, forced himself to sit up straight, and whispered to Huo Xin'er on the side.
"Well, don't worry. ”
Huo Xin'er naturally knows the current situation, and she agrees with Jiang Xiaoqi's approach in her heart, the most difficult guy is still there, and only by adjusting the state to the peak can she protect herself. Immediately, Huo Xin'er smiled lightly and cast a reassuring look at him, with a bit of firmness in her words.
in the main hall
"It's really a waste, not even a single ant in the Yangxi Realm can't solve it. ”
Gu Chi saw everything that happened in the field, but what he didn't expect was that Wang Zhong would be beaten to death by a Yangxi Realm martial artist who was killed halfway, so that his plan was directly disrupted, and he couldn't help but scold in his heart.
"Sting"
The sharp frost sword tore through the air, slashing through Gu Chi's neck, unable to dodge, a string of blood flowers was brought up, and the red blood shot out on the stone pillar on the side, imprinting a clear pattern.
The moving shadow came lightly, Xi Meng glanced at Gu Chi who flew out upside down, his gaze swept in the direction where Huo Xin'er was, and finally his gaze was fixed on Jiang Xiaoqi behind him, and there was a strange light flashing in his beautiful eyes.
Like Huo Xin'er, Jiang Xiaoqi's achievements were equally amazing in Ximeng's eyes, and he was able to defeat Wang Zhong across a major realm with the strength of Yangxi Realm, such a performance was undoubtedly shocking.
"It's really not as simple as I imagined. ”
Withdrawing and flying back, Gu Chi wiped the blood dripping from his neck, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly, with a slight sigh in his words, and a touch of helplessness on the corners of his mouth. Then, he set his eyes on the moving figure not far away, and let his moves be exhausted, and the woman in front of him only broke it with a sword. Although the two of them were in the same realm, Gu Chi could feel that Ximeng's spiritual power was even stronger than his, and after the battle just now, he found that Ximeng's body seemed to be sealed with a powerful force, providing her with a steady stream of spiritual support.
"I'm afraid your Gu family's plan is going to fail. ”
For Gu Chi's words, Xi Meng's beautiful eyes were cold, without a trace of temperature. The actions of the Gu family are undoubtedly insidious, and for this hostile family, Ximeng has an unconcealable disgust in his heart, and he has no good feelings. If Jiang Xiaoqi hadn't appeared in time today, Huo Xin'er's fate would probably be something she didn't want to see, and this was all created by Gu Chi in front of her, so today, no matter what the reason, she has to leave this guy here forever and solve this big trouble.
"Miss Ximeng's strength is really a headache. ”
"I admit that I won't be your opponent if I fight alone, but when it comes to cultivation, I'm afraid that only that guy can be above you. ”
For Ximeng's cold words, Gu Chi was noncommittal, shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands lightly, and looked at the former with a slight sigh in his gaze.
"But as I said, nothing is sinister until the victor appears, and only those who stand last have a chance to write history. ”
Stretching his body, Gu Chi spoke again, his eyes were a little complicated, and his pale face was full of helplessness, but in the end, the corners of his mouth still outlined the arc of a smile.
"Hmph"
With a cold snort, Ximeng's body swept up lightly, and a fierce sword qi tore through the air, heading straight for Gu Chi. For these guys, she has no mercy, the family has died in the hands of the Gu family over the years, in recent years, because of the special changes in the clan, the Gu family's actions have become more and more intensified, Gu Chi appeared in Dongxu not far away, it was just a move they did casually.
"I think what you're looking for here is the Soul Talisman. ”
The sledgehammer full of scars blocked the sword that Ximeng volleyed into, and with a 'click' sound, the sledgehammer was finally overwhelmed at this moment, turned into shards in the sky, and fell into the main hall. However, Gu Chi didn't care about this, he retreated, flashed past the eight stone statues, and his figure fell in front of the huge bronze coffin, looking at Ximeng with a cold face on his cheeks.
Gu Chi's words fell on Ximeng's ears, and the latter's cold pretty face couldn't help but froze, and a touch of incomprehension flashed in his beautiful eyes. The number of people who know the purpose of her trip will not exceed five fingers, and it is a top secret in the family, but now, Gu Chi, who is a member of the Gu family, clearly knows the purpose of her trip, which makes her confused at the same time, and she can't help but have a bad premonition.
"You're wondering why I would know, right?"
Next to the bronze coffin, Gu Chi looked at the complex changes in Ximeng's expression, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, there was not much surprise in his heart, with Ximeng's intelligence, he naturally knew the other meanings implied in his words.
"It is the tradition of your ancient family to sow discord. ”
Although she was suspicious, Ximeng was not a simple person, even if she got the name of the person who revealed the rumor from Gu Chi's mouth, she could hardly believe it. Sending wrong information back to the family will only cause unwarranted suspicion, not to mention, sowing discord is what the Gu family is best at.
"It doesn't matter. ”
For Ximeng's behavior, Gu expected it sooner or later, if the girl in front of him easily believed his words, then it should be him who was suspicious. What's more, as an outcast, how can he know the family secrets.
"I've had enough fun, those old guys don't want to see you go back alive, so let me give Miss Ximeng one last ride." ”
Sucking in the bloody breath in the main hall, a look of excitement flashed on Gu Chi's pale cheeks, and then he saw his arms open, his body jumped up, his feet fell on the huge bronze coffin, and his indifferent gaze swept over several people in the field one after another, and then his eyes looked into the distance, and his eyes fell on the people outside the main hall, and there was an inexplicable brilliance flashing in his pupils.
Without waiting for Ximeng to make a move, everyone was shocked to find that Gu Chi, who was standing quietly on the bronze coffin, had the clothes of his upper limbs shattered with a bang, revealing the thin upper limbs in it. However, at this time, most of everyone's eyes fell on the strange runes carved on Gu Chi's body.
There, dense scarlet lines crawled all over his upper limbs, and maggots seemed to wriggle under the lines, all over his upper body. Then, only to hear Gu Chi's hoarse roar, the dense lines all over his body began to ooze blood at a speed visible to the naked eye. What's even more strange is that the blood stains on the surface of Gu Chi's skin are not bright red, but a deep dark black color, which looks extremely terrifying.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Gu Chi's body tremble, and a breath of spiritual power full of slaughter erupted from his body, and then Gu Chi stepped heavily on the soles of his feet and stomped on the bronze coffin under him, and then, everyone saw that the closed coffin cracked a gap at this moment, and a cloud of dark gas began to spread from the bronze coffin, and the wisps of it diffused out, instantly wrapping Gu Chi's figure and burying his whole person. Outside the field, people could only hear a terrible roar in the black fog.
"What is this guy doing?"
Looking at Gu Chi, who was haunted by a black aura on the bronze coffin, Huo Xin'er stepped forward slowly, came to Ximeng's side, cast a solemn gaze, and spoke suspiciously to Ximeng beside him. For this guy who came from most of the capital, Huo Xin'er had an inexplicable worry in her heart, she could become Ximeng's opponent, Gu Chi would naturally not do something meaningless.
"These guys are really unscrupulous. ”
Compared with Huo Xin'er's doubts, Ximeng somewhat guessed Gu Chi's plan, but she still had some hesitation in her heart. Because she knew what the consequences of doing that would be, but when Gu Chi shattered her clothes and revealed the mottled lines on her body, she was already sure in her heart, but what she didn't expect was that the Gu family was willing to sacrifice an outstanding disciple in order to prevent herself from bringing the spirit talisman back, and such a method was really shocking.
"Stop him. ”
Without the slightest hesitation, after Xi Meng understood Gu Chi's actions, Qianli's figure turned into an afterimage and went straight to Gu Chi who was filled with black light on the bronze coffin. Hao's wrist trembled slightly, and a sharp sword flower slashed at Gu Chi, who was surrounded by black mist. Gu Chi's crazy actions made Xi Meng, who had always been calm, a little urgent at this moment, if this guy really succeeded, then everyone present today, including herself, would die here. Therefore, she had to completely wipe out the contents of the coffin when Gu Chi summoned them.
"Hehe, I'm just finding out now, doesn't Miss Ximeng feel a little late?"
The black mist was torn apart by the sword flower, revealing Gu Chi's figure. However, at this time, the latter gave people an extremely strange feeling, the pupils on the pale face were completely submerged in black, without a trace of the whites of the eyes, and it looked extremely weird.
Then, everyone saw that the black mist around Gu Chi's body was inhaled by him, slowly rotating and swallowing into his mouth, at the same time, the dense scarlet lines of Gu Chi's upper limbs also began to bulge at this moment, his thin body became extremely strong, and the deep black outline of his upper limbs looked like a mysterious totem.
Looking at the sword flower slashing in front of him, Gu Chi smiled contemptuously, and then, with a flick of his fingers, a dark black light galloped out from his fingertips, and collided head-on with the sharp sword flower slashed by Ximeng. With a muffled bang, the sword flower was instantly extinguished by the black light that Gu Chi popped out, but the black mang did not show its decline, his body became more and more rapid, and he tore the sword flower and went straight to Ximeng.
"Hmph"
With a cold snort, Ximeng's shadow hung in the air, the spiritual power surging between her delicate body, her wrist waved lightly, and a sword flower condensed again, surrounded by spiritual light, the sword shadow slashed down, and slammed into the oncoming black light.
"Bang"
In a flash of inspiration, the two attacks were extinguished almost at the same time, and the light was diffuse, and everyone saw Ximeng's delicate body holding a long sword retreating rapidly, and the ethereal delicate body swept away a touch of embarrassment at this moment, and the blood overflowing between the jade hands soaked the light gauze dress. Then, Ximeng's chin was raised slightly, and Gu Chi's gaze began to surge with solemn colors.
Without waiting for Ximeng to react, the corner of Gu Chi's mouth standing on the bronze coffin smiled coldly, and the next moment, everyone saw Gu Chi's figure surrounded by black light disappear in an instant, and the figure came quickly, the wind was whistling, and the vague figure could not find the slightest trace.
"Bang Bang Bang"
The ruthless offensive came like raindrops, and after the black qi entered the body, Gu Chi's strength increased by an unknown number, according to Ximeng's guess, this guy's cultivation realm at this time had at least reached the peak of the Upper Star Realm, and his swift figure was difficult to fathom. Even if Xi Meng's strength is so strong, under Gu Chi's fierce moves and strong cultivation, he fell into the upper hand in an instant, and only the power of parry remained, so he could only hold the Frost Sword in front of him to meet Gu Chi's sharp and fierce attack.
"As I said, I can only win in the end. ”
The figure flashed, Gu Chi's figure standing in place disappeared, and the next moment, he had already appeared behind Ximeng, only to see a sneer on the corner of Gu Chi's mouth, a playful look surging on his pale face, and his low words did not contain the slightest warmth.
Then, I saw Gu Chi's palm lightly slapped out, and the palm that lingered with black breath was fiercely imprinted on the back of Ximeng's heart, and the azure spiritual power was instantly broken through the defense under the erosion of the black breath, and the ruthless palm print fell firmly on Ximeng's delicate body. Immediately afterwards, everyone saw that a mouthful of red blood spurted out from the corner of Ximeng's mouth, and her beautiful figure was like a paper kite with a broken thread, thrown forward.
"Big Sister Head"
Looking at the figure of Ximeng flying out, Huo Xin'er, who was standing beside Jiang Xiaoqi, shouted, and then, the fiery red shadow flew out, and took the blood-stained Ximeng in her arms with her eyes, her eyes were full of worry and worry, her brows were furrowed, she looked at Ximeng, who was pale, and slowly landed on the ground with her in her arms.
"This is, demonic energy?"
Feeling everything that happened around him, Jiang Xiaoqi slowly opened his eyes, I don't know if it was because of his innate sensitivity, or because of the origin fragments in the Qu Chi, Jiang Xiaoqi's eyes opened and closed and instantly froze on Gu Chi, who was shirtless in the field, and there was a burst of surprise in his words.
