Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Decisive Moment
When the time finally came for the nine gates to open, the whole sky darkened, and the whole world seemed to be surging.
There were many demigods gathered on the mountain one after another.
Tang Yichuan felt it, seventy-five demigods, one is not more, one is not many, all of them have arrived, and the filing he made with Su Qingyi obviously does not need to be implemented.
Turning his head to take a look, he saw many demigods standing around, and these demigods all stood up straight one by one, stretched out their heads and looked at Tang Yichuan's front.
I don't know when, something has already appeared in front of Tang Yichuan's eyes, and a ray of light in the air shines down from the clouds, forming a wall of light in front of Tang Yichuan.
The glow of the wall of light in the night illuminates the entire mountain.
"The Nine Gates have appeared." "It's time to turn it on." ”
Although Xuanyuan Bai looks very calm on the surface, like everyone, his heart is also very excited, for Xuanyuan Bai, the world of Jiumen is like his home, so he is going home.
took out the jade pendant left by Old Lady Qi, and Tang Yichuan glanced back again.
Chu Yan, Su Qingyi, and the father and son of the Qiao family stood not far away and watched them, keeping a certain distance from them, and when they saw Tang Yichuan preparing to open the nine gates, Chu Yan waved his hand at Tang Yichuan.
A silent goodbye.
It's finally time to go.
Tang Yichuan took a deep breath.
The jade pendant in his hand touched a not-so-obvious pit on the light wall, and the jade pendant was completely consistent with the pit, and then the jade pendant began to wander irregularly on the light wall, and at first glance, a gossip pattern was formed.
"Boom-"
There was a loud noise, and suddenly the wall of light opened. Before Tang Yichuan and the others had time to act, all the demigods rushed into the wall of light, and they all came to this point, Tang Yichuan and the others were not in a hurry, waiting for all the demigods to go in one by one, and they made sure that none of the demigods were left behind. That's when I went inside.
The figures of several people were hidden in the light, and gradually the light dimmed, and the wind and clouds in the sky surged and calmed down, and the barren mountain was still the same barren mountain, as if nothing had changed.
Chu Yan and the others left like this.
The world inside the door was dark, and there was no feeling of falling last time, and as soon as you entered this time, a staircase that seemed to lead to the sky appeared. The staircase goes up almost vertically.
The demigods spread their wings and tried to fly up, but they couldn't, as if all their mana had been lost.
"It's been a lot of work, here, you can't use your mana." Xuanyuan Bai came to his own world and said coldly.
Among the demigods, the fat man is the smartest one, and he uses it to walk. Walked directly on the top of the stairs without trying to fly. Because he had walked this road once, he knew that he had to climb it on his own, he couldn't fly up, and his mana was useless.
Here, the demigods are the easiest to kill. Because Tang Yichuan had weapons in his hands to deal with them, he could easily kill them.
The fat man would never give Tang Yichuan a chance to kill himself here.
And when Tang Yichuan knew this fact, the first thing that came to mind was to kill these demigods here. It's the easiest thing to do, so he has to kill the demigod as fast as he can.
The only thing that is a pity, but it is also fair, is that Tang Yichuan does not have any mana here, all he has is the three-edged thorn that he snatched from the demigods in the first place.
In this case, even if Tang Yichuan only had a three-edged thorn in his hand, he could easily take down these demigods, as long as he could catch up with the demigods in front of him.
The demigods also realized their situation at this moment, they knew that their lives were in danger, and there was a guy behind them with the three-edged thorn of the god of slaughter.
When the shadow of the fat man's first run was almost gone, these demigods behind were also deeply aware of some kind of problem, so all the demigods began to chase the fat man in front, and the demigods were scattered on the vertical and steep ladder, and everyone was struggling to climb up, very difficult.
Tang Yichuan and the others seemed a lot calmer, not as fast as the demigods, but they maintained an unhurried speed.
"This is the best time to kill a demigod." Xuanyuan Bai suddenly spoke, "After crossing this ladder, there is no such good road ahead. ”
Hearing Xuanyuan Bai's words, Tang Yichuan nodded, it was the first time he walked the ladder, so he first felt how difficult it was to walk this ladder.
The road is actually relatively easy to walk, and there is no such difficulty, the only test is its steepness and height, if you don't often exercise people walking on such a steep staircase, most of them will be scared of the soul.
Tang Yichuan is a person who often experiences such strange places, he used to have a fear of heights, but now his fear of heights has long been gone, and this is nothing at all.
Tang Yichuan's speed was fast, and the half of his body in front of him was frightened, and the demigod obviously relied on a little divine power on his body, so the guy who didn't exercise much on weekdays, at this time, felt Tang Yichuan's speed so fast, and his face suddenly changed.
Are you going to die?
It's over, it's terrible, the man is approaching.
The more I think about it, the more terrible I feel, half of the demigod's body is shaking, the almost vertical stairs are very scary, and there is a bottomless abyss below, and the width is more than one meter.
There is a person who wants to kill himself in the back is chasing, and the weapon in his hand can take his life with a single stroke.
The demigod's face became more and more ugly.
Tang Yichuan's speed increased more and more, and in an instant, Tang Yichuan was already close to the demigod.
The demigod suddenly kicked towards Tang Yichuan with one leg, and Tang Yichuan grabbed the opponent's ankle with one hand while dodging his head, "I'm sorry." ”
The three-edged thorn in his hand had already pierced the demigod whose eyes were red and wanted to die with Tang Yichuan, and the blood sprayed Tang Yichuan's face, and Tang Yichuan calmly wiped it. The demigod gently pushed towards the abyss, and the demigod's screams floated in the air, and the figure disappeared.
Killing people is indeed not Tang Yichuan's favorite job, and he always feels that it doesn't feel very good to kill people like this, but he also has to kill.
The first few demigods saw that one of the demigods had been killed, and the sense of urgency in their hearts became serious. But they all want to leave this ladder, and they don't want to die on this ladder.
"Let's go, it's time to kill!"
"Hell, why can't this place use divine power, if there is divine power, I can easily fly up, it's hell!"
"Don't scream, you should be glad that the people chasing us behind don't have mana. Otherwise, we'd all be dead now! ”
The demigods screamed as they ran for their lives.
Tang Yichuan always chased after the demigods in front of him with a calm face, and he tried his best to annihilate all the demigods in one fell swoop.
"How long is the road? How many can we solve? Nalan Ning suddenly asked, of course the question was thrown to Xuanyuan Bai, only Xuanyuan Bai knew everything about this, and they didn't know anything.
"At this rate, I think it's about half the way through, if you work harder. It is also possible that there will be ten left. But it's never possible to kill them all. Xuanyuan Bai analyzed.
"It's up to us?" Nalan Ning took a deep breath and held a triangular thorn in her hand. The silver light flashed in her eyes, and her eyes darkened, "And how many of us do it?" And dead. ”
"Seven left." Xuanyuan Bai said.
"Why are there so many left? Is there anything ahead that can benefit us? The fox asked.
"Yes, the place where the four beasts are buried. They felt Tang Yichuan's breath and would wake up, and once they woke up, the four fierce beasts would become bigger than the demigods. Eventually, the demigods will be destroyed. Xuanyuan Bai said seriously.
"Do the four fierce beasts recognize people, I guess if they don't recognize people, they will turn around and treat us all as enemies......" The fox spit out for a long time.
"They'll deal with the demigods first. The four fierce beasts have a grudge against the demigods, and they hate the demigods to the core. Xuanyuan Bai glanced at Tang Yichuan and said, "Especially the fat man." This is a good opportunity to deal with him, because the four fierce beasts have the ability to kill him. And you may not be able to kill him, and if you fight, there is a high chance that both sides will lose. ”
Tang Yichuan was silent all the time, he was concentrating on thinking about how quickly he could kill more demigods, solve these demigods as quickly as possible, and then open the Wheel of Time to return everything to its original state.
Suddenly, Tang Yichuan exerted his strength, his speed suddenly became faster, walking on the ladder, his body was light as if he was flying, he stepped on the ladder, as if he was stepping on cotton.
In just a moment, Tang Yichuan had already caught up with a demigod above.
This demigod was not as lucky as the previous one, and he didn't even find a chance to resist, Tang Yichuan hooked the demigod's neck from behind, and the three-edged thorn in his hand suddenly wiped the other party's major artery, blood spurted, and this person died silently.
Tang Yichuan concocted the same method and killed several demigods who were concentrating on climbing up one after another.
The fox, the dead, and Nalan Ning also began to speed up and rush towards the top, helping Tang Yichuan kill these demigods.
The fox had transformed into a body, and it was easy to maintain balance on such a ladder, and the speed would be very fast, and he had already gone up and killed the two demigods in the blink of an eye.
Death seemed to be interested, it jumped up quickly, but Death couldn't kill these demigods, what it did was to have fun, kicked these demigods from above, and then the demigods would roll in front of Tang Yichuan's eyes, Tang Yichuan killed with his hands, one person and one cat, and the cooperation was seamless.
Murong Qingshu and Xuanyuan Bai did not participate in the slaughter of the demigods, Murong Qingshu was too small to have any chance of winning, and fighting with the demigods was not suitable for him, and Xuanyuan Bai was originally out of the way.
When he was in the outside world, Xuanyuan Bai still wanted to help, after all, he also wanted to enter the Nine Gates, but he had already entered them, Xuanyuan Bai was not interested in anything, he had already returned to his own world, no matter what, anyway, he loved his own world now.
It still feels good in his own world, Xuanyuan Bai enjoys everything here, and he looks up and breathes. It felt very comfortable.
Tang Yichuan's speed of killing gods is getting faster and faster, and he is getting more and more comfortable, he killed more than a dozen demigods in the blink of an eye, almost without stopping, and after stopping, Tang Yichuan can be regarded as relieved.
When the demigod in front looked back at Tang Yichuan. They all had a hellish expression, and they were completely frightened by Tang Yichuan's god-killing speed, which was too exaggerated.
Nalan Ning also easily solved three or four demigods, the fox's speed was faster, it had already jumped to the front at once, except for the seven fastest ones that Xuanyuan Bai said, it didn't chase it, he began to choose to kill from above and below.
In an instant, the dozens of demigods in the middle were surrounded by two ends, and they fled or fought. In the end, Yu Sou even begged Tang Yichuan for mercy, but Tang Yichuan still didn't let them go.
It's come to this point, it's not like it's just going to be released.
Killing people is addictive.
The blood stained the entire ladder red, and all the demigods were slaughtered, and they fell on the ladder, and it seemed that the scene was extremely tragic.
Xuanyuan Bai sighed slightly, "Blood-stained ladder." It's time for the rust on the Wheel of Time to be washed off, I hear the sound. ”
Click. Click-
Not only Xuanyuan Bai heard it, but Tang Yichuan also heard such a vague voice, the voice was becoming stronger little by little, Tang Yichuan frowned slightly.
"Is the Wheel of Time going to run on its own?" Tang Yichuan turned his head and glanced at Xuanyuan Bai.
"No, it's just rusting, it always needs someone to start it. It's waiting for you to start. Xuanyuan Bai said. Go on, those demigods are running fast enough, don't you notice that there are no shadows? ”
Looking ahead, the last seven remaining demigods were indeed gone, and there were no traces of the demigods at the top of the ladder. Apparently they have gone down from the other side.
Tang Yichuan and the others also sped up, and Xuanyuan Bai said that it was best to catch up with the demigods, because Tang Yichuan and they should get their bodies back.
"Now we're in the soul state?" To be honest, Tang Yichuan didn't feel this at all.
"Yes. But the density of this world is quite special, so even if it is a soul state, you can't feel it yourself. Xuanyuan Bai said, "Your body has always been in the coffin at the previous point, if your body is destroyed by them, it will be difficult for you to go back to the original time, even the Wheel of Time may not be able to bring you back from the dead." ”
Without Xuanyuan Bai saying anything more, Tang Yichuan and the others had already chased forward quickly.
Fox, Nalan Ning, Murong Qingshu, are undoubtedly not very worried about their physical bodies, no one wants to die, let alone die in this kind of ghost place and can't even go home, so they all want to find their physical bodies as soon as possible and get their bodies as soon as possible.
After running forward quickly for an unknown amount of time, Tang Yichuan suddenly stopped, and a door appeared in front of him.
After crossing the staircase, a door crossed in front of them, and the large iron door did not seem to be easy to open.
"Rush right in." Xuanyuan Bai said, "It's just an illusion, everyone sees something different, but it can be broken through with a rush." ”
Listening to Xuanyuan Bai's words, Tang Yichuan rushed directly towards the iron gate, and easily rushed out of this door.
Nalan Ning and the others followed Tang Yichuan without the slightest hesitation, and they all passed smoothly.
After going out from here, Tang Yichuan felt that his mana came back in an instant, and he also guessed that the mana of those demigods had also returned.
"Your flesh may be scattered." Xuanyuan Bai suddenly said, "I don't know where your physical body is, if you want to find your physical body, I'm afraid you need to rely on your own feelings to find it, only you can feel where your physical body is." ”
As soon as Tang Yichuan's eyes were closed, as soon as he felt it, a painting appeared in his consciousness, which was where his physical body was.
In a dark place, inside a suspended glass coffin, he lay quietly.
"Split up." Tang Yichuan said.
"Okay." Nalan Ning also felt her own body, she was the first to determine her position, and suddenly ran towards a path.
Tang Yichuan also ran towards another road.
Fox, Murong Qingshu also ran away separately, Xuanyuan Bai stood alone in the middle and sat on the stairs, and gently touched the dead head, "Little kitten, they are all gone." Shall we wait for them here, or will we go to the front and wait? You should go to the front and wait, right? They should all gather at the front. ”
Without waiting for the little black cat to answer, Xuanyuan Bai stood up and walked forward.
The little black cat jumped on Xuanyuan Bai's shoulder lightly, and one person and one cat looked particularly harmonious.
There was no glimmer of light in the pitch-black world, only a glass coffin that was emitting a soft glow.
Tang Yichuan slowly approached the glass coffin, fortunately. The demigods had not yet appeared, and his body was still intact. When he saw his body lying in the coffin, Tang Yichuan really felt a lot of emotion.
After so long, he can be considered to have found his body, and he can return to his body.
Using other people's bodies is always not as good as your own body for more than 20 years, but your own body is better.
Just when Tang Yichuan was about to open the coffin, he suddenly felt something, and the yin and yang tree vines suddenly rolled up the coffin and protected it, and then Tang Yichuan sent the coffin to the side. He turned to look at the fat man who was attacking him.
The fat man had already found this place, but he had no way to get close to this coffin.
The coffin seemed to be guarded by something, and as soon as the fat man approached, he was attacked.
Since there was no way to deal with Tang Yichuan's body, he could only directly attack Tang Yichuan's soul.
Just when Tang Yichuan and the fat man were about to fight, a sudden whistling sound came, a rough and terrifying voice came.
"Who disturbed my sleep?" The ground began to shake, this violent tremor. It seems that even the air has been driven, and the fat man can't search the whole person.
"Poor ...... You're awake. "The fat man didn't expect to meet Qiqi here.
Tang Yichuan didn't make it to Qi Qi, one of the four fierce beasts, this guy was actually under his coffin.
Suddenly, Poor Qi appeared. As soon as he saw the fat man, he launched an attack on the fat man.
The fat man who originally wanted to deal with Tang Yichuan had no power to parry at this moment, and he had no time to care about Tang Yichuan next to him, he frantically resisted the poor Qi in front of him, and his face became more and more ugly.
After Tang Yichuan watched the two fight for a while, he went to open the crystal coffin without saying a word. Then he lay down by himself, the fit between his body and soul was very high, and as soon as Tang Yichuan lay in, he felt that his soul and body fit together smoothly.
It really feels so good that it couldn't be better.
Crawling out of the crystal coffin, Tang Yichuan took a deep breath, and finally breathed with his body. It doesn't get any better feeling than this.
Comfortable.
Tang Yichuan raised his head and took a few deep breaths, then jumped out of the coffin lightly and moved his shin slightly. It's still better than his own body, and he doesn't know how many times stronger than that Tang Yichuan's body.
Finally back in his body.
That's great.
Tang Yichuan watched the contest between the fat man and Qi Qi again for a while, both of them were very fierce, Qi Qi was very powerful, and the fat man was not much worse, they were all very difficult, they couldn't take care of anything on the side when they fought.
Seeing that it was a good opportunity to escape, Tang Yichuan immediately ran away secretly.
The corner of the fat man's eyes saw Tang Yichuan slip away, but he had no choice but to be entangled by Qi Qi, and he couldn't chase Tang Yichuan because of the entanglement, and his breathing was a little unsmooth.
Although he wanted to chase him, the fat man was grabbed by Qiqi as soon as he ran, and then the two began to continue fighting.
In addition to Tang Yichuan, Nalan Ning, Murong Qingshu, and the fox were also guarding a fierce beast on their side, and those demigods were also guarding there separately, but instead of dealing with Tang Yichuan's people, they were entangled by those fierce beasts.
ran away secretly, but in just ten minutes, the four of them met again.
Xuanyuan Bai also happened to have just walked over, "It seems that they have found their physical bodies and escaped." The Four Beasts have woken up? ”
"That's right." Tang Yichuan suddenly remembered something and asked Xuanyuan Baidao, "I forgot to talk about the three-edged thorns for those fierce beasts, can they kill the demigods?" ”
"Don't underestimate the four fierce beasts, why can't they kill the demigods?" Xuanyuan Bai said, "If my prediction is correct, it should be a defeat for both sides, and they will both die in the end." ”
"You're really calculating." Nalan Ning said, "That is, both sides are dead, and there is nothing to do with us." ”
"All that's left for you to do is turn the wheel of time." Regulus shrugged. (To be continued......)
