Mingyue followed the faint, vague fishy smell through the center of the town and came to the edge of the back mountain. It's a desolate and sparsely populated place, with only a winding path leading deep into the back mountains. Next to the trail are new graves with white flags, which are the townspeople who have recently died of the plague.

The white flags are full of shadows in the night, making a sound of "woo woo woo" being blown by the wind, as if a ghost haunts, and it sounds extremely terrifying. Mingyue gritted her teeth and walked towards the path lined with new graves. A cold wind blew, and she felt goosebumps all over her body.

Mingyue "brushed" the moon chasing sword to prevent any beasts from coming out, and at the same time to give himself courage. The bright moon walked among the lonely graves, and the pale moonlight shone on her body, making her sense of smell and hearing extremely sensitive.

At this moment, the strange faint fishy smell became more intense, and there seemed to be that oppressive feeling of boredom in the air. Mingyue raised the immortal power to the extreme, and slowly approached the faint fishy smell.

There seemed to be an undercurrent surging in the air, and it was as if an invisible pressure was spurting out, so oppressive that people couldn't help but want to scream loudly. Whew", there seemed to be the incendiary sound of the wings of birds flying over in the air in front of them, and the bright moon quickly disappeared behind a lonely tomb, and looked carefully ahead along the moonlight.

Under the white moonlight, a huge black shadow monster more than three meters tall, as if it appeared out of thin air, was condensing and hovering over a new tomb.

The black shadow monster did not look like an entity, but swayed like a shadow, and the giant shadow hovered for a long time before it slowly condensed into a shape, revealing a huge head and thick limbs, a pair of black hole eyes like two lanterns, and a big mouth like a cave, which looked very scary.

The huge black shadow monster seemed to look around, then opened its mouth and began to inhale in front of a new grave. As the black shadow monster continued to inhale, a white humanoid gas gradually rose from the new tomb, and the humanoid white gas struggled and screamed, and was instantly inhaled into the body by the huge black shadow monster.

Mingyue's hairs stood on end, she was so frightened that she almost screamed, and a big hand covered her mouth at once.

Mingyue struggled hard, and the person behind her whispered in her ear: "Yue'er, it's me." ”

The voice was low and familiar, it was Feng Chengcheng.

Mingyue turned her head gently in shock, facing the comforting eyes of Feng Chengcheng, Feng Tingcheng shook her head at her, signaling her not to move, and Mingyue suddenly calmed down.

Feng Qingcheng took her hand and pulled her to hide behind a new grave. The two of them carefully observed the movement of the giant black shadow monster side by side.

At this time, the huge black shadow monster sucked the white gas of the three tombs one after another, and the illusory body seemed to become a little thicker and darker.

Mingyue looked at it for a long time, and suddenly understood, it turned out that the huge black shadow monster was actually absorbing the soul qi of the dead person, that is, the residual essence! These people died of the plague, and even their souls were sucked up after death, and they could not be reincarnated, this black shadow monster is really hateful.

Mingyue was angry in her heart, and noticed that the black shadow monster was actually formed by countless small black mosquitoes. Mingyue didn't notice it at first, but when it was closer, when those little mosquitoes flew, their wings would cause extremely subtle air fluctuations, if it weren't for the fact that her immortal power had increased a lot recently, it was estimated that she wouldn't have felt it. And that fishy smell is the one that comes from those little mosquitoes. The black shadow monster sucked the souls from several nearby tombs, and then floated towards the new graves where Mingyue and Feng Chengcheng were hiding.

Feng Qingcheng pinched Mingyue's fingers, and Mingyue looked at him

Eyes, both of them saw the signal of battle in each other's eyes. Mingyue also pinched Feng Chengcheng's fingers, indicating that she knew what he meant. The huge black shadow floated closer and closer, and it seemed to float above the new grave where they were hiding.

The shadow monster smelled the smell of the living, and glanced at them suspiciously, obviously hesitating.

When it was too late, Feng Chengcheng and Mingyue sacrificed their swords together, and attacked the huge black shadow monster like lightning in both directions. The shadow monster seemed stunned for a moment, as if the entity's hands pinched out a strange trick and struck the two of them hard. The seemingly light blow produced a huge ball of energy light, which rushed towards the two of them like a mountain.

Feng Chengcheng only hesitated for a moment, and then rushed forward again to fight with the black shadow monster. And Mingyue was hit by a huge force and took many steps backwards before stopping. Feng Chengcheng didn't wait for the black shadow monster to have a chance to breathe, one sword after another stabbed fiercely at the black shadow monster, and the black shadow monster didn't seem to be weak, the black shadow instantly dispersed and instantly solidified with the sword qi of Feng Tilting City, and the powerful sword qi of Feng Tilting City seemed to be helpless against it.

Mingyue carried the sword and rushed towards the black shadow again, standing with Feng Qicheng, attacking the black shadow monster. The power of the black shadow monster is very powerful, and the giant palm sweeps over again and again, sweeping Feng Qicheng and Mingyue directly from the air to the ground.

The black shadow looked at the two of them for a moment, and suddenly said in a very strange muffled voice: "It turned out that the two hairy boys from the Shushan Xianmen came to send them to death, the old man didn't mess with them, but they came to provoke the old man, don't blame the old man for being polite." ”

"What the hell is it?" Feng Chengcheng asked, "The plague in the town turned out to be dry. ”

The black shadow raised his head and laughed: "Boy, I am not qualified to ask the old man, when the old man's master returns from rebirth one day, he will definitely know who the old man is." ”

Feng Chengcheng sneered: "Let's see if we can live until that day." After speaking, he raised his sword, used his immortal power, and struck with all his strength at the black shadow monster.

The black shadow monster hurriedly retreated, and scolded in his mouth: "Stinky boy, you dare to sneak attack the old man and look for death!" ”

After the black shadow monster finished speaking, he waved his giant palm and began to pinch out that weird trick again.

The huge ball of energy light smashed towards Feng Tingcheng and Mingyue, and Feng Tingcheng pulled Mingyue backwards to dodge.

At this moment, Qiao Chuya's voice came from afar: "Mingyue, Feng Chengcheng, are they?" ”

Mingyue turned around and saw Qiao Chuya rushing over with many Shushan disciples.

She hurriedly responded, "Yes, we have found the spreading monster of the plague, and the elder and I are fighting against it. ”

Qiao Chuya, Hua Qiandu, and Mei Ren rushed over with many disciples, and when they saw the huge black shadow monster floating above the tomb, everyone was stunned.

What kind of monster is this? Is it a human or a ghost?

Feng Qingcheng said in a deep voice: "Everyone has formed a sword formation and is ready to clean up this old monster that spreads the plague." ”

When the disciples heard this, they quickly sacrificed their swords and arranged them into a sword formation. As the Zhuxian Sword Array took shape, the huge sword qi swirled and transformed into a huge energy lightsaber, attacking straight towards the black giant shadow floating in mid-air.

The power of the Shushan Zhuxian Sword Array increases with the increase in the number of people, and the more people in the formation and the stronger the immortal power, the greater the power of the sword array. Although there are only about a dozen people in the Zhuxian Sword Formation this time, the power should not be underestimated.

I saw that the huge energy lightsaber suddenly slashed towards the black giant shadow in mid-air, dispelling the black mosquitoes gathered in the huge black shadow monster, and many mosquitoes were hacked to death by the sword qi.

The black shadow monster screamed, and instantly floated to the side, hiding

The dazzling sword qi was opened, and it quickly condensed into a prototype.

The black shadow monster sneered, and the black hole-like mouth muttered a spell, and countless black mosquitoes turned into huge energy and the black sword slashed in reverse, splitting the Xuan Immortal Sword Array.

Mingyue felt that the hand holding the sword was shaken and painful, and those disciples with low cultivation, the sword instantly came out of his hand and rolled to the side.

Feng Qingcheng shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, don't break the sword qi!" After saying that, he connected the sword qi and re-supplied it to the black shadow monster.

The black shadow monster desperately dodged, moving instantly like a shadow, which was very weird.

Although it dodged extremely quickly, the sword qi faster than it still injured its arm, and the black shadow monster let out a muffled snort.

The black shadow monster suddenly flew into the air, gasping and saying in that dull voice: "The old man doesn't want to mess with you, don't come to harass the old man again, otherwise, there will be no mercy!" As he spoke, he quickly fled.

Feng Chengcheng and the others quickly flew with their swords to chase after them, but the black shadow monster flew too fast, and suddenly jumped into the huge cave on the stone wall of the back mountain and disappeared, and everyone only saw a phantom shadow when the black shadow finally jumped into the cave.

The cave is a black hole, and there are gusts of yin wind blowing out of it, making a "woo woo" sound.

When Feng Qicheng came to the cave, he only saw the hard stone wall in the shallow cave. The stone wall was smooth and hard, and there was not a trace of a gap in it, and Feng Chengcheng used his immortal power to investigate, but he couldn't find any entrance, and he didn't know where this monster went after coming in just now.

It was already early in the morning, and Feng Chengcheng was worried about everyone's safety, so he took everyone back to the inn to think about the long run.

By the time they returned to the inn, it was already dawn. Nangong Yurou, Mo Yao, Dou Ruhua and many other disciples didn't sleep all night, and they were waiting anxiously for them in the lobby of the inn.

Everyone sat down and discussed for a long time, but they didn't know what that huge black shadow monster was.

Mingyue thought for a while and said, "I see that black shadow monster condensed and formed, a bit like a legendary monster. ”

"What monster?" Feng Chengcheng asked, she broke into the back mountain alone today just to save him, which made him extremely moved, so his eyes became extremely soft when he looked at her. He didn't expect her to be quite bold at such a young age.

Mingyue said: "Zhu is tired. ”

Hua Qiandu yawned and said, "What the hell is Zhu Yan?" ”

Mingyue explained: "According to ancient records, Zhu Yan is a fierce beast in ancient times, from Xiaoji Mountain. Shaped like an ape, extremely tall, fierce and aggressive, and cannibalistic, once this monster appears, there will be a great war in the world. ”

Qiao Chuya smiled and said, "Things in myths and legends can't be taken seriously. ”

Mingyue was also puzzled, and muttered, "What kind of monster is that, it is made of mosquitoes and insects, and it can also suck people's souls." ”

Everyone discussed for a while, but they couldn't understand what kind of monster it was, condensed by mosquitoes and insects, specializing in sucking human essence, which sounded a bit appalling.

Feng Qingcheng groaned: "No matter what kind of monster it is, judging from the fact that he likes to suck people's soul essence, it is definitely not a good thing, and it is reasonable for us to get rid of it." Let's go rest and recharge our batteries, and then we'll go over and explore it at noon. ”

Mingyue and the others fought with the monster all night, and they were already tired and sleepy, so everyone went to the inn to rest.

Feng Chengcheng and the others will further explore the cave where the monster is hiding at noon, and Mingyue will rush to the quarantine area to participate in the disaster relief after resting.
