【164】Khotanese ghosts! Evil?
For a time, the situation was extremely critical!
At this time, I am still a certain distance away from Brother Zhou, even if I have tried my best, at this time, I am "beyond the reach of the whip", and I have no time to come to the rescue. [No pop-ups. 】
"Get out!"
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Jiang Li, who was hiding behind Ge Pingzhang and didn't dare to step forward, couldn't help but suddenly explode at this time.
The long sword in his hand swung suddenly, and it was impartial, and at an extremely tricky angle, it just passed under Brother Zhou's armpit! Kankan slapped Xu Cheng in the face with a sword.
It's a pity that Xu Cheng at this time is like having a "King Kong incorruptible body"!
Even if Jiang Li's sword slapped him in the face, it only made him pause slightly, and the rest was not affected in the slightest.
Not only that, but just as Jiang Li's long sword slapped his face, he couldn't help but make a "sonorous" metal trill on the spot!
"Holy!"
Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but curse secretly, and said in my heart how thick is this old boy's skin? It's just like armor, and even the standard long sword of the Maoshan Sect can block it!
Rao is like this, Jiang Li's timely action still bought Brother Zhou a certain amount of time. While stomping on the ground, he escaped and hurriedly retreated.
It's just that in this way, Jiang Li was under great pressure all of a sudden!
Perhaps completely enraged by Jiang Li's sword just now, Xu Cheng at this time decisively gave up Brother Zhou. At the same time, he shook the long sword in Ge Pingzhang's hand with a fierce palm, and then pointed the spearhead directly at Jiang Li!
Constantly baring his teeth, he opened his teeth and danced his claws and pounced straight towards Jiang Li.
On the other hand, Jiang Li is really worthy of being the personal disciple of the head of Maoshan, and the hole cards in his hand are endless!
Obviously, he used the same standard long sword as Xu Cheng, but once he was bitten by Xu Cheng's indestructible fangs at this time, it didn't crumble!
The reason for this, I think, should be related to the incantation that Jiang Li was reciting at this time!
I saw that he retreated sharply, waving his sword to resist Xu Cheng at the same time, he couldn't help but say with words in his mouth: "The benefactor gave me the seven-star sword, nine training into steel and picking up a knife, several formations of white horse generals, for a while, to kill the evil demons, inspect the world and hell, the city god is a mountain and river, I have a spirit in the sword today, the aura is the same as the sun and the moon, the Venerable holds the sword to kill the demons, and the order is urgent, I serve the Nine Heavens Xuannu!" The gods are as urgent as the law! ”
And I am no stranger to this spell, it is the "Seven Star Sword Divine Mantra" that is included in the "Jade Maiden Joy Divine Technique", which also belongs to the "Liuding Liujia Array".
The so-called "Liuding Liujia" is actually not a formation, let alone a few simple spells. It is a kind of "protection" in Taoist legends, that is, the meaning of "Dharma God General", so it covers a very wide range of content.
Nearly half of the entire "Jade Maiden Joy Divine Technique" is about this "Liuding Liujia Array", which can be imagined how important it is to Maoshan.
It is said that this "Liuding Liujia Array" was not originally owned by Maoshan, but in the time of Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Huizong decreed to expand the Maoshan Yuan Fu Temple as "Yuan Fu Wanning Palace", and gave Liu Mingkang the nine old immortals to the jade seal and jade sword, and gave it in his own book "Liujia Divine Rune". After hundreds of years of evolution, the current "Liuding Liujia Array" was finally formed, and it also became the "treasure of Zhenshan" of Maoshan Sect!
It's a pity that although I've also read this "Seven Star Sword Divine Mantra", it's a pity that I haven't had time to cultivate yet!
It wasn't until this time that I saw Jiang Li wielding this magic spell with such power, and I made up my mind that if I could survive this time, I would have to take time to cultivate it in the future.
It's just that this "Seven Star Sword God Mantra" is powerful, but after all, it is only an external force, not Jiang Li's true cultivation!
In terms of cultivation, Jiang Li is at most only at the peak of the "fusion" realm, and he is not much stronger than me, on the other hand, Xu Cheng has already broken through the initial heart-beating realm of "refining Qi and transforming gods", which is a big realm higher than Jiang Li!
Although his strength was slightly weakened after the "evil spirit", he became invulnerable, and he couldn't deal with it with common sense at all!
Therefore, after resisting it for a short time, Jiang Li was immediately at an absolute disadvantage, and the situation was precarious for a while.
Moreover, his "Seven-Star Sword Divine Mantra", after all, also has a time limit, once the power of the "Seven-Star Sword Divine Mantra" gradually recedes, Jiang Li's situation can't help but be even more optimistic, and he is about to be caught by Xu Cheng!
"Humph!"
I snorted coldly, and I, who was holding a short sword, finally arrived in front of him in time!
I didn't dare to hesitate at all, I almost subconsciously urged the killing intent in the short sword, and slashed straight at Xu Cheng with a sword.
"Woo-"
The terrifying killing intent spread in an instant, not to mention the other people around me, and even I couldn't help but feel the real chill from the bottom of my heart!
And maybe the short sword in my hand is really a little too fierce, and at this time, even Xu Cheng, who is "evil", is afraid of it!
Originally, he was suspected of being invulnerable and had a "King Kong incorruptible body", but he didn't even wait for my sword to really cut his body, he couldn't help but give up Jiang Li decisively, and retreated as soon as possible!
"What a fierce sword!"
Seeing this scene, Jiang Li and Ge Pingzhang were also taken aback, and they were directly shocked back by the killing intent in my short sword almost on the spot!
It wasn't until I successfully forced Xu Cheng back that a flash of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two of them, and they hurriedly approached me.
"Chirp-"
Xu Cheng on the other side still had a gloomy sneer on his face, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry to make a move, but his eyes couldn't help but stare at the broken sword in my hand, obviously afraid of it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Brother Zhou couldn't help but hurry up with us, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and looked afraid: "It's so dangerous!" I almost confessed to it here! ”
"yes!"
Nodding solemnly, Jiang Li couldn't help but palpitate and said, "Fortunately, Uncle Xiao arrived in time!" If not, I'm going to have to give an account of this little life here! ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly arched his hand to me, and was about to thank him, but I subconsciously waved my hand at him, and directly interrupted him: "Don't talk about those useless things, what is this thing?" Why is it so difficult? ”
"Khotanese ghosts!"
Brother Zhou and Ge Pingzhang's voices sounded almost at the same time, and in my mind, I couldn't help but automatically search for the relevant description of "Khotanese Ghost" from "Jade Maiden Joy Divine Technique".
Speaking of "Khotanese ghosts", we have to mention a kind of "martyrdom" criminal law in ancient times, saying that a human-shaped groove was directly carved out of the wall, and then the prisoner was inlaid into the groove alive, and finally directly sealed with an iron bar, leaving it to fend for itself inside!
Not only that, but because the grooves are often one size smaller than those embedded in them, it is often very painful for living people to be embedded in them. And these people who died of squeezing and starvation are often called "Khotanese ghosts"!
Because the process of their death was extremely painful, they naturally accumulated great resentment, so this "Khotanese ghost" naturally became one of the most difficult evil ghosts.
Thinking about Han Tiesheng's death, it is indeed very similar to this kind of criminal law of "imprisonment and martyrdom", so it is not impossible for him to form a "Khotanese ghost" after his death.
But what I still can't figure out is that this "Khotanese ghost" is certainly one of the most difficult evil ghosts, but after all, it is only a mere evil ghost, how can a master like Xu Cheng be able to do the Tao?
You know, he is a master who has broken through the realm of "refining Qi and transforming gods"! Don't say that he is a mere "Khotanese ghost", even if he is a top ten ghost in the list of 100 ghosts, he shouldn't be allowed to fall on the road so easily, right?
What's more, even if it was because Xu Cheng was careless and suddenly fell into the way of the "Khotanese ghost", we still have the two masters of Brother Zhou and Ge Pingzhang, and there is nothing to do about it?
What makes me even more puzzling is how a mere "Khotanese ghost" can have the ability to directly devour the sword, and Xu Cheng seems to have inherited this after he became enlightened, as if he was invulnerable!
"That's not right!"
Perhaps seeing the suspicion in my eyes, Jiang Li couldn't help but suddenly speak: "In my opinion, this is by no means just as simple as 'Khotanese ghosts', if I guess correctly!" This 'Khotanese ghost' should have been directly separated into a 'evil spirit'! ”
"Evil spirits?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but be stunned on the spot, including me, and couldn't help but turn their eyes to Jiang Li.
The strange thing is that we didn't even wait for us to ask! In my mind, at this time, I couldn't help but suddenly flash another piece of information......
