Chapter 958: The Final Battle 31
However, Delirium didn't give those demon claws such a chance, and saw those seemingly gentle and harmless golden runes flying like elves change their faces in an instant, shedding their holy and friendly coats, and replacing them with tyrannical and murderous faces, one by one like unsheathed blades with vast momentum, rushing towards those demon claws who still wanted to stop and watch at lightning speed.
Caught off guard, many black demon claws in mid-air were torn apart by the Dao golden light in the blink of an eye, if they were originally flesh and blood creatures, then at the moment they were torn apart by the golden runes, they turned into smoke and dust before they could even let out a scream.
But these claws can't scream, but something else is there to cry out in their place.
I saw that in the formation of the "Ninety-Nine Roots" above the sky, half of Kunxiu's eighty shadows were in pain because of the destruction of the devil's claws, but soon their expressions immediately calmed down again.
There was only one reason why they were able to calm down, and that was that there were many souls in the Soul Snatchers that surrounded them and bore their pain.
A little observation will not be difficult to find that for every time a demon's claw is reduced in mid-air, one of Kunxiu's eighty shadows will show a look of pain, and the next moment that shadow is invaded by pain, a soul will be pulled out by an invisible force in the Soul Snatcher Banner, and then turn into ashes with a scream.
It was also because the original belongings of these souls were uneven, and the time for Kun Xiu to include them in the Soul Snatcher Banner was too short, and the process was too hurried, so Kun Xiu's shadow only suffered some damage, which caused many souls to resist and dissipate.
Seeing this scene, Feng Yan suddenly realized that her heart was even more worried, and she spoke: "No wonder this 'Ninety-Nine Roots' technique can allow the caster to share a life, it turns out that they actually used the souls of other creatures prepared in advance to fight their lives. β
"What? You mean, Kun Xiu used the Soul Snatcher to take the souls of so many innocent beings in order to let those souls die in his place and his shadow?" asked Kuri in shock.
Feng Yan nodded, "It must be like this." If I'm not mistaken, it was for this reason that the real 'Ninety-Nine Roots' technique was not circulated, and those souls used to resist fate should have been tempered by some special techniques, so that there was no need to sacrifice too many lives, and the tempered souls were not easy to die. I don't know if Kun Xiu didn't have time to do this, or if he didn't know about it, so he would directly capture the new soul to make up for the trauma he suffered. β
Kongli's complexion had already turned pale due to the destruction of the mana mask, but now that he heard Feng Yan say this, his complexion became a little more ugly, and he subconsciously looked at the sky and said, "It's really outrageous...... With so many creatures dying in his hands in vain, and such a huge number of souls, it would be difficult for Cang Delirium to destroy Kun Xiu and his body together even if he ran out of mana, right?"
Feng Yan didn't answer, in fact, she was also worried about this in her heart, although the current delirium could not be said to be in absolute weakness, but the enemy had the souls of countless living beings as the backing to resist his life, and the delirium only relied on his own strength, and after a long time, he would inevitably fall behind.
Although this man has a very strange supernatural power, this supernatural power can even absorb demonic energy for his own use, but in the final analysis, he is not a demon, if he continues to use demonic qi as his supply, I am afraid that if the demon venerable is not destroyed, he himself will be scattered first.
It is completely common sense to say that Feng Yan has such worries, and as for how much demonic qi he can absorb, Cang Yu has no bottom in his heart, but what he can be sure of is that his body is not a bottomless pit, and the demonic qi flows through his own body, and it is not that it will not leave the slightest trace.
That's why he wanted a quick fix.
In the battle circle, the claws of the devils looked very embarrassed and were chased by the golden runes controlled by the vain manipulation, but the number has never decreased.
Cang Delirium naturally discovered the strangeness of this "Ninety-Nine Roots" from the beginning, and he knew that if he continued to entangle with these claws, the final result would be that his strength would be exhausted first.
But he wasn't making a pointless rebellion, he had been secretly observing the situation of Kun Xiu and his eighty shadows in the sky while dealing with those black claws.
Gradually, he discovered that there would be a short interval between each soul when it came out to fight for Kunxiu's shadow.
And those claws that seemed to attack him in an orderly manner were actually injured on Kunxiu's shadow first according to a very vague law, and then the soul was injured.
This discovery is very much in line with Cangyu's most basic understanding of the root of the formation, but there are always rules to follow in the formation, and no matter how fancy and complicated the changes are, after all, it is still to cover up its original essence.
The corners of his delirious mouth showed a subtle smile, and a rich purple light erupted from his body again, and just when several demon claws were obliterated by runes due to their lack of strength, he manipulated the power that erupted from his body and launched an attack directly towards one of the eighty shadows.
A purple light rose into the sky, and I heard a scream of "ah-", and a certain shadow of Kun Xiu spurted out a mouthful of blood, and as soon as his eyes were closed, he was about to fall.
But at the moment when the shadow fell, hundreds of souls flew out of the soul snatcher banner at once, and the ghost cried wolf and hugged the shadow that was about to fall.
The black oppressive aura shuttled between those souls and shadows, and when hundreds of souls completely disappeared, that shadow was as alive as before.
Cang Yu frowned, and said secretly: Sure enough.
Since they have the souls of countless living beings as substitutes for the dead ghosts, then this kind of entanglement is completely meaningless, and what they want has been confirmed, then it is time to do their best to take down Kun Xiu in one fell swoop.
Thinking like this, the faint purple light surged around the delirious body again, and those flying golden runes spun and flew to the point of dazzling.
When his attention locked on Kun Xiu's eight shadows located in the eight directions of the formation and successfully induced them to reveal the inevitable flaw in the formation together, the delirious clones on the ground who were also located in the eight directions suddenly shot into the sky in unison.
These violets are not aggressive, but they have an extremely difficult characteristic, and that is restraint.
Such an attack would not damage the shadows, let alone put their lives at risk, and it would be impossible for the souls in the Soul Reavers to escape on their own, or even to defend the shadows from damage.
Kun Xiu was naturally very shocked by this sudden change, he didn't realize if he had revealed any flaws when he cast this formation, but Cang Xuan's sudden blow did bring him a very uneasy feeling.
He wanted to give orders to his eight shadows to free them from the shackles of delirium as soon as possible, but the response they received was impossible, and they couldn't move at all under the shackles of delirium's power.
Kun Xiu's face was blue with anger, he had no idea how the man on the ground had done it, he could have time to calculate himself in the face of his own attack.
In desperation, Kun Xiu made a plan to sacrifice these eight shadows and take out the back hand he kept for himself in advance.
As a result, just as he was about to use the other shadows in his body to replace the position of the eight shadows, a powerful force rushed up from the ground like a roaring ocean wave.
The black demonic qi barrier, the black-pressed body of the "Kunxiu", and the black soul-snatching banner like a huge curtain were all covered by monstrous purple qi at this moment.
Kun Xiu was shocked, and instinctively wanted to use his mana to resist, but he was surprised to find that his actions had been seriously hindered in this monstrous purple qi, and what was even worse was that this feeling was faintly familiar to him.
"Kun Xiu, do you feel this feeling familiar?" In the middle of the array, the voice of delusion came into Kun Xiu's ears from all directions.
Kun Xiu frowned, and shouted, "Cangyu, what have you done to the deity?"
"Ehβdon't be so ambiguous, this king doesn't have the slightest interest in you. Cang Yu actually had the intention to joke, and deliberately misinterpreted Kun Xiu's semantics.
"You don't have a smooth tone here, do you really think that the deity is helpless against you?" Kun Xiu was a little annoyed and angry.
"Aha......" Cang Yu suddenly laughed, but after laughing, his expression became extremely serious, and he said in a gloomy and cold tone: "A thousand years ago, this king was able to hit you hard with the Vajra Demon Array, and today, a thousand years later, this king naturally has a way to hit you again, or even kill you." β
"Vajra Demon Array? No, it can't be! How could the Vajra Demon Formation be so powerful?" Kun Xiu said in disbelief.
Cang Delirium burst into a low laugh again, and at the same time as the laughter came out, countless golden runes had already rushed into the formation of the "Ninety-Nine Roots" from all directions.
With the arrival of the golden rune, the Soul Reaver Banner began to shake as if it was under great threat, and the soul in the Banner also became restless.
I heard Cang say with a delusional smile: "Your feeling is not wrong, this formation is indeed not the 'King Kong Demon Array', but it is the same as your 'Nine-Nine Roots', it is all borrowed from the subtleties of the 'King Kong Demon Array'." The king gave it a new name, called the 'Ten Thousand Laws Vajra Demon Array'. β
