Chapter 49: The Fight for the King (3)
Caught up in the air by a body like a cannonball, Zheng Xie's chest was directly dented into a large piece, and blood mixed with internal organs and debris spurted out of his mouth and nose, forming a blood mist directly in midair, and finally sprayed on the ground.
The two of them slammed into the stone wall of the main hall, directly creating layers of sound waves, echoing in the empty hall like a bell.
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
A weak cough came from where the two had fallen, shocking both of them who were watching the battle at all times.
"I said it...... I will be king......
The strange red glow shone brightly, stabbing people's eyes.
The dim blue halo was trampled under the man's feet, and he looked dying.
Zheng Xie lay on his back on the ground, and he could feel the overwhelming crunch coming from his broken sternum, as well as the increasing force on his feet, and the vision in front of him began to blur.
"You're strong, even good enough to be the best generation, but not enough. β
The young man raised his hand, and the punch full of strength rapidly enlarged in Zheng Xie's vision.
At this time, Zheng Xie was conducting a strange exchange in the deep realm of consciousness.
There is no concept of time in the realm of consciousness, everything is a drowsy mind, leaving only pure consciousness and flickering thoughts.
This is also the first time Zheng Xie has set foot in this field.
Zheng Xie looked at his hands and feet, and realized that he was just an incarnation of indefinite reality and reality, which was incarnated by his own consciousness, and there was no substance.
On the opposite side of Zheng Xie was a place where the shape of a cage could be faintly seen, in which a mass of ink-black substance was imprisoned, exuding an evil and cold aura.
Zheng Xie took a few steps forward and recognized that this mass of matter was the evil spirit he had brought out of the Lost Domain.
The black substance kept surging, and finally gathered a face that couldn't see clearly, and said:
"In this case, you are almost certain to die. β
Zheng Xie nodded calmly:
"I know. β
And the evil spirit said:
"Your physical body is only one line stronger than him, even if your martial arts perception is above him, it is difficult to make great achievements at the stage when the sea of qi is not opened. The augmentation of that halo is enough to offset or even reverse the gap between you. β
Zheng Xie nodded again:
"I know that, too. β
The evil spirit swells back and forth in the cage:
"Since you know that you are difficult to match, and you still refuse to completely liberate me, what do you want to do?"
Zheng Xie's eyes were full of deep meaning:
"I want to lure out the guy who can bring me into this field. β
At this moment, the evil spirit in the cage was silent.
Zheng Xie suddenly laughed:
"Look at this, I made the right bet, right?"
This sentence is not about the evil spirit in front of you.
A familiar voice came:
"A madman who dares to force me into the game with his fate, what else can't you do?"
Zheng Xie looked at the source of the voice and saw the expected figure:
Zhang Huaishan.
This simple-looking man exudes an indescribable temperament all over his body, and although his face is ordinary, it is difficult to ignore his presence.
"If I hadn't said that last word, wouldn't you have guessed my existence?"
Zhang Huaishan asked such a question with a hearty smile.
The smile on Zheng Xie's face gradually converged and turned into a rich coldness:
"yes, if it weren't for your 'friendly goodbye,' I probably wouldn't have thought of this possibilityβ"
"ββIt's not this so-called evil spirit that is really imprisoned in the Lost Realm at all, it's you, Zhang Huaishan. β
When this remark came out, even Zheng Xie himself felt a little depressed.
Zhang Huaishan didn't mind the meaning of the target in Zheng Xie's words, but smiled:
"Amazing, isn't it? I knew that my time was short, and I was afraid that I would not be able to escape the constraints of the underworld, so I thought of banishing myself in the Lost Realm, waiting for a turning point in this place where the underworld does not care and the yang world does not remain. β
Zheng Xie was silent, just looked at Zhang Huaishan coldly, waiting for the man to continue.
"Speaking of which, it was the owner of the Tomb of the Corpse King who inspired me. The whole mound is built on top of the Lost Realm, connected to the endless Lost Realm, and my layout is ridiculous like a child's play in comparison. β
Zhang Huaishan shook his head and couldn't help but sigh heartily.
Zheng Xie's expression was solemn:
"You can't just want to make yourself memories, or punish this evil spirit that has brought you pain....... Judging by the way you act, you don't care about these nihilistic things at all. What the hell do you want to do?"
Zhang Huaishan smiled and glanced at the cage beside him, and the evil spirits in it were directly constricted, not daring to move for half a minute.
"Borrow a person's body to enter this grave, and then borrow the hand of the owner of this grave to return to the yang world, it's as simple as that. β
Zhang Huaishan's tone was flat, but what he said was shocking.
At this time, Zheng Xie also figured out the details:
"So, you disguised two layers of layout, one for screening out incompetent mediocrity, that is, the double cycle on the surface. The second level of layout is used to select the person who can see the great reincarnation structure and has the audacity to destroy your layout. β
Zhang Huaishan showed a look of relief:
"It is precisely that only such a person with a mind and ambition can help me return to Yang from the battle for the creation of the Tomb of the Corpse King. β
Zheng Xie looked at the trembling evil spirit in the cage:
"My deal with him is actually a deal with you, right? Even if I didn't have the idea of using freedom as a bargaining chip, you would have used it to guide my thoughts, making me think that I had made my own decision, but in fact it was your careful planning. β
Zhang Huaishan's smile did not change:
"At our level, we don't want to owe too much cause and effect. Why not be happy to be able to pay off such a great cause and effect with the body of this evil spirit?"
After listening to Zhang Huaishan's words, although he had already guessed, Zheng Xie still couldn't help but feel creepy. This Zhang Huaishan's mind was too deep, he thought that he had seen through the other party's layout, but in fact he was still a chess piece.
What's terrifying...... It can well be imagined.
"The so-called axe...... It's always you, and that's the only way to explain what you said, and why you can use the axe as a tool to end evil spirits. β
Zheng Xie said the guess in his heart.
Zhang Huaishan finally showed surprise:
"You can guess that?"
Zheng Xie didn't answer, but asked:
"Where is it?"
Zhang Huaishan didn't speak, but with a flip of his palm, an iron axe that looked plain appeared in his hand.
"It's always here, it's just that you can't perceive the realm, and you can't perceive it. β
Zheng Xie showed a thoughtful look, and then asked a crucial question:
"Now that I have discovered all that you have done, your cause and effect ...... You can't pay it back so easily, right? This evil spirit can't afford such a big price. β
Zhang Huaishan showed a wry smile:
"yes, that's a nuisance, but-"
He looked up into the misty distance, and his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate all falsehood:
"You seem to be in big trouble? Why don't I save your life and chop up the miscellaneous fish in the hall with an axe, and we can write them off?"
Zheng Xie sneered:
"You don't have to always think about calculating me, I'm still very clear about this - since I awakened this deep realm of consciousness, I already have the capital to turn the tide of the war. β
Zhang Huaishan was seen through by Zheng Xie and thought carefully, but he was not annoyed, he just smiled:
"Anyway, I pulled you up, otherwise you would have this kind of opportunity. β
Zheng Xie was unceremonious:
"Then I thank you, do you need me to bow to you?"
Zhang Huaishan gestured and nodded:
"Yes, I'd love to. β
Zheng Xie sneered:
"Stop dreaming...... You borrowed me to play such a big game of chess, I didn't ask you to settle the score, and I am already very old. β
Subsequently, without waiting for Zhang Huaishan to respond, Zheng Xie's incarnation directly returned to nothingness.
Zhang Huaishan shook his head, and disappeared, leaving only a faint sigh:
"It's really hard to worry about the future generations now......"
In the vast mist, only a cage remains, and the evil spirits trembling in it.
......
In the main hall, a broken fist was infused with huge force and smashed down, if it hit Zheng Xie's head, I am afraid that it will directly kill him.
The two onlookers who have been watching have the momentum to do it. After Zheng Xie's words, they also understood that they had no choice, so no matter who survived Zheng Xie and the young man, they would become their enemies.
Under the fist that fell rapidly, Zheng Xie's godless eyes suddenly showed a little aura.
It was at this time that the young man who was about to put Zheng Xie to death had a hint of something bad in his heart.
Bang!
The fist fell to the ground, but it didn't hit Zheng Xie's skull!
Zheng Xie, who just tilted his head, looked at the other party's frightened face, and the corners of his mouth full of blood also rose:
"Is it fun?"
Zheng Xie's arms were broken, but he raised his knees, which happened to hit the leg of the young man who stepped on his body, and the unbelievably accurate force control made the other party just lose his balance and let go of the foot that stepped on Zheng Xie's chest.
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Xie pushed his shoulders to the ground, turned over and changed positions in the most concise way, twisted his legs around the opponent's neck, and used the few remaining tendons to exert force, and smashed it directly to the ground!
"You!"
The young man was smashed to the ground, and his consciousness was a little sluggish, but he didn't know how Zheng Xie reversed the situation, so he only had time to shout a word in shock and anger.
Although Zheng Xie was smiling, his eyes were full of condescending indifference:
"You are indeed strong, you can even be called the best generation, but ......."
"It's not enough. β
