Chapter 42: The Bitter Battle (Part II)

He had to admire Ruan Zhan.

This soul bell is his magic weapon, he has been cultivating this bell for so many years, and he has never taken it out, even in the last body swap incident. It's not that he is reluctant, it's because he cultivates the magic weapon with his soul body, and this magic weapon has become a part of him.

As one with the magic weapon, of course, it is more comfortable to use, but once the bell is destroyed, his life will also be damaged, especially when he has not fully cultivated. This life was finally snatched back from the hands of God, or rather, he worked hard to reshape it, and he naturally cherished it very much.

Now this bell is almost not cultivated well, but he can't take care of these anymore, because he finds that although his strength is stronger than Ruan Zhan, he can't suppress Ruan Zhan's feelings. Maybe if this continues, he will still win Ruan Zhan, but it is certain that it will be a long and arduous process, but he will not have time to waste it.

In fact, he wanted to end the matter here as soon as possible more than Ruan Zhan.

With so many people missing, there has been an uproar in the old town, and the units and families of people from the province have also been alarmed, and although the mayor has tried his best to stop them, many people have decided to come to the new town to investigate, which means that this place will no longer be closed and unknown to outsiders. Therefore, he did not hesitate to make a mistake and used nightmare magic to control all the people in the old town, temporarily cut them off from the outside world, and also made their plan to come to the new town unable to be implemented.

In front of the public, they are a group of people who are secretive after all, unknown existences, and cannot reveal their identities and behaviors, otherwise they will become people like white mice in the laboratory, or they will be forced to go far away or even unable to survive.

All battles must be fought in secret, this is true for Ruan Zhan, and even more so for him!

In advance, he planned perfectly, he didn't think that Ruan Zhan, who he wanted to get rid of, would be able to deal with him for so long with the help of his friends, and the current situation seemed to be a little uncontrollable, forcing him to show up in person. And all of this must be done within a certain period of time, otherwise his nightmare will be broken, and the battlefield he has opened up will also flood into a large number of 'spectators'!

Therefore, he had to sacrifice the Dementor Bell, even if he was in danger for it, otherwise he would lose everything!

And Ruan Zhan's willpower is too strong, and he has persevered for so long, which is why he admires him. It's a pity that Ruan Zhan doesn't understand, the more he struggles to deal with this soul bell, the more painful it is, and the more he suffers!

Seeing that although Ruan Zhan fell to the ground, he still had to get up, like a beast trapped in a trap, untamed but falling deeper and deeper!

He walked up to Ruan Zhan with a sneer, and gently chanted the incantation in his mouth, changing the frequency of the rattle.

Jingle - Jingle -

The whole new town was as dead as a great tomb, and only the crisp sound of the bell came unhurriedly, and could be heard in every corner, as bleak, eerie and breathtaking as the sound of a death knell!

Ruan Zhan is still struggling. He only felt that his whole body was crossed by many iron chains, and he was pulled like a puppet, unable to act on his own, and a tempting and malicious voice said in his ear: Give up! I'm so tired! Sit back and rest for a while! Don't struggle anymore and let it go! How easy it was then!

yes, I'm so tired! It's uncomfortable! But do you really want to give up?

Ruan Zhan's will was a little vague, and he suddenly remembered the things of his childhood, those dark and hated days, the loneliness and fear of being regarded as an alien, the terrible things that he saw that others couldn't see, his father's indifference, and the shadow of the troubles.

Give it up! Let's die! That's a relief! The voice sighed again.

In the confusion, Ruan Zhan relaxed his strength a little, and he felt that another chain had been added to his body, which made him feel heavier on his body, more laborious to resist, and a little weaker in will. And as soon as his will was weak, there were more invisible chains on his body, and so on the vicious circle, he finally overwhelmed Ruan Zhan, lying on the ground and unable to move.

Sima Nan smiled again.

He understood Ruan Zhan's heart and knew that if he continued like this, victory would come! Why didn't he think of using this method to deal with him before-as long as he controlled Ruan Zhan's heart, he could control everything about him! However, it is difficult to say that he has never had the opportunity to fight him at such close range in a healthy state before, and of course he has not had the opportunity to use this method!

It turns out that although this kid is stubborn and tough in his bones, he can't be defeated no matter how he fights, but his heart is heavier than anyone else's, and he lives harder than all people! He is an extremely sensitive person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and his biggest weakness is his heart. Therefore, as long as it involves feelings, whether it is father-son love, friendship or love, he will be confused, weak, and there will be mistakes.

So he said a long time ago that feelings are the most important thing! Ruthless people are the most powerful people!

He put the two copper bells into his right hand, still ringing the bells in a fixed rhythm, and with a wave of his left hand, he grabbed a handful of fire qi that was still burning in the corridor in the middle of the lake, transformed it into a fiery red short knife, and threw it in front of Ruan Zhan, who was lying at his feet.

"Pick up the knife, aim it at the heart, just go down with a knife, and you will be completely liberated." Sima Nan gently induced, "I won't be tired anymore, and I'm no longer an outlier, and I can ask your father why he took you in and treated you like that!" ”

Ruan Zhan couldn't help but stretch out his hand and picked up the knife. But he didn't make the next move, but looked at the knife in a daze!

"What's the point of being alive? Who cares about you? You leave and no one will even notice. So you might as well go alone, and then you won't have the restraints of this physical body, and there will be no need to do those things that you don't hate at all. No one cares if you hide in any dark corner, and you don't need to disguise it anymore! How wonderful! No pressure at all! Come on, just a little bit. Just one click, and you don't have to worry about anything! Let's do it, yes -- sit up, a little to the left, between the third and fourth ribs -- okay, there it is, yes. That's it, now you just have to exert some force, just a little-"

Sima Nan whispered, squatting down as he spoke, and approached Ruan Zhan's ear.

This is not psychotherapeutic hypnosis, but spelling. Hypnotism is useless against people like Ruan Zhan, who are particularly tenacious and sober, and as long as it is a spell, it will be dangerous.

If Ruan Zhan broke his soul technique, then it was him who was in danger. Therefore, he could only use words to induce him, and he couldn't do it himself, because any accidental touch might make Ruan Zhan sober up instantly, and he himself would be subject to the backlash of the soul dementor!

"You have a dilemma, and you will only hurt her by pulling that woman! What a good couple she and Wanli are, if you die, you can fulfill them. She will slowly forget about you and live happily with Wanli, don't worry. What a man worth entrusting for life! As long as you're dead, everything is settled. How wonderful! Feeling that Ruan Zhan was already in chaos and there was a little reluctance in his heart, Sima Nan realized that it was the woman named Yue Xiaoxia that he couldn't let go, so he hit him further, "You can't bear her, it will only make her more painful." Long pain is better than short pain, leave! ”

Ruan Zhan's heart turned back and forth, he couldn't tell if the voice was his own heart, and he couldn't remember where he was, only a familiar and unfamiliar little figure appeared and disappeared in his already confused consciousness.

Who is she? Who is Wanli? Why can't he remember her, but he can't bear her?

But he felt that the voice was right, he had a difficult time, and he shouldn't have anything to do with anyone. He doesn't think there's anything good about this world, there's nothing worth nostalgic about, anyway, for people like him who can cross yin and yang, there is not much difference between death and life.

He's dead, and everything will be at peace! But why can't he let it go, he always feels that he said something to her, but he can't remember it. Who is she? What did you say to her?

"Don't hesitate, stab her, let her go!" The voice urged.

There was a slight tingling in his left chest, which made him understand that it was not a dream or a hallucination, so where was he? Why can't I remember anything?

His hands strengthened slightly, and he felt the pain on his left chest increasing, but his consciousness was still searching for the name of the shadow, whether he left or not, he must think of her before leaving!

Ruan Zhan was still hesitating, but Sima Nan on the side was in a hurry. Seeing Ruan Zhan holding the fire knife aimed at the position of the heart, but he just didn't stab it for a long time, he always felt that there would be some accident. He couldn't touch Ruan Zhan with his hands, he just kept urging on the side, only to see Ruan Zhan frowning, and he couldn't feel what he was thinking, he only understood that he was concentrating.

After a long time like this, he was almost dry in his mouth, but he saw that Ruan Zhan was still meditating.

"Die!" He concentrated all his mental power and shouted, fearing that something would change, trying to dissipate Ruan Zhan's consciousness.

With his shouting, Ruan Zhan's body shook, and his hands pressed downward.

Sima Nan's eyes widened, excitedly watching Ruan Zhan's suicide, seeing that the tip of the knife had sunk into Ruan Zhan's chest by half an inch, his goal was about to be achieved, and at this time, Ruan Zhan's chest suddenly emitted a warm and sacred yellow light!

"Die!" Sima Nan subconsciously shouted again.

"Never!" Ruan Zhan let out a loud cry and swung the fire knife in his hand towards the place where the inducing sound was made.

Things took a turn for the worse, and Sima Nan was too close to Ruan Zhan, so although he reacted quickly and the person had already retreated, he was still swept by the fire knife on the back of his right hand. Under the great pain, he consciously let go of his hand, so although the person dodged, the two copper bells fell to the ground and let out a final wail!

'Wow', Sima Nan also spit out a mouthful of blood, although he immediately withdrew the copper bell, but the mana on the copper bell was completely destroyed, and his telekinesis was completely damaged!

He saw Ruan Zhan slowly standing up, for fear that Ruan Zhan would take advantage of the fire to rob, so he didn't care about his own injuries, and hurriedly drew talismans with both hands to cast spells, rolling up a whirlpool-type wind that blew straight towards the fire in the corridor in the middle of the lake.

The fire borrowed the wind, and the fire that was still burning became more violent after encountering the wind, and swept towards the tower with the direction of the wind!

This is what Ruan Zhan is most worried about. The tower is made of wood, and there is a small pergola between the cement base of the tower and the corridor in the middle of the lake, so that as long as the wind and fire are strong, the fire on the corridor may be drawn to the tower.

If the ghosts are afraid of fire and dare not set fire to the tower, Sima Nan is currently a human being, and he has no scruples. Without the tower, not only could the ghosts be released again, but his plans could not continue.

Now in order to divert his energy, Sima Nan really intended to move the fire to the tower, so he had to move to the front of the tower immediately, and also drew a void talisman, rolled up a stream of air, and tried to push the fire back!

His strength is not as good as Sima Nan's, and he has just gotten rid of the control of the soul dementorship, so although Sima Nan's skill has been hit hard, his wind borrowing power is still much weaker than Sima Nan's, and although he tried his best, he still couldn't stop the fire from slowly burning towards the tower.

Seeing that the tongue of fire was about to lick the tower, Ruan Zhan resolutely withdrew his hands against the wind, stepped to the junction of the pergola and the cloister, formed a small barrier with one hand to protect his body, and pointed at the lake with the other hand, regardless of the burning fire!

Yuan Shi'an Town, Tell all souls. Yue is a true official, and the land is only a spirit. The left and the right are not to be alarmed. Return to the right path, internal and external clarification. Each is in a safe position, guarding the altar and court. Tai Shang is destined to hunt down evil spirits. Protector God King, defend chanting. The Avenue of Refuge, Yuan Henry Zhen-

He chanted aloud, concentrating his mind and mana as he tried to stir up the lake to put out the fire. However, when he did so, Sima Nan exerted the opposite force not far away. The lake was scrambled by two forces, and no one could have the upper hand for a while, only to see the waves in the lake vibrating violently, and the waves splashed to the shore, but they just couldn't reach the fire!

The two sides were at a stalemate, but Ruan Zhan clearly had the upper hand. On the one hand, he couldn't stop the fire, and on the other hand, his arm outside the barrier was about to be burned by the fire, and now it was already scorched by the heat, and if it continued like this, he would have no room to maneuver!

Looking at Sima Nan smiling proudly on the other side, and looking at his hideous face because of bleeding from his mouth and nose, Ruan Zhan was anxious.

He had just been hit by Sima Nan's soul dementorship, and the super willpower that he had always been proud of was completely controlled, and he almost committed suicide, if it weren't for his strong obsession with Xiao Xia, and the Jizo King Bodhisattva amulet that had been in his jacket pocket helped him in time, he would have died by now.

At this moment, the situation is becoming more and more urgent, and he must get rid of this disadvantage as soon as possible. Otherwise, in terms of strength alone, although Sima Nan was injured a lot, he was also injured and injured, and he had no chance of winning!

With a twist on his heart, Ruan Zhan suddenly jumped up and jumped into the lake!

He felt a huge force coming, and knew that it was Sima Nan exerting force to suppress the lake and prevent him from using the power of the lake to extinguish the fire. He took advantage of the momentum and drilled all the way to the bottom of the water, and then quickly performed the transfer technique, leading this force to hit the bottom of the lake hard!

For a moment, he only felt that the bottom of the lake was shaking, and the turbid waves were churning, making him feel like he was in a deep quagmire, and it was pitch black in front of him. But at the same time, he also felt that the force reacted back, turning pressure into lifting. Taking advantage of this fleeting opportunity, he hurriedly added his strength to it, only to feel that the water around him twisted into a powerful stream, rolling him straight to the water!

With a bang, Ruan Zhan was thrown to the ground, although there was a huge pain on his body, but he was lucky to smash into the pergola made of wisteria first, and then landed, and was not seriously injured.

And the surrounding 'hissing' sounds, the dangerous fire was instantly extinguished, and the sporadic small fires that were still burning were no longer a threat!

Seeing that the plan to overcome fire and water was successful, Ruan Zhan didn't have time to catch his breath, jumped up, and stretched out his right hand to Sima Nan. Under Sima Nan's nose, on his right palm, a crystal beautiful little red stone soon appeared.

"Want this stone?" He said defiantly, "It's a pity that Abaya has passed it on to me, so if you have the ability to take it yourself!" After speaking, he used the space-time warping technique and stepped into the tower.

He didn't have a stone, it was just an illusion he cast. He wants to test whether Sima Nan will be fooled, if he is fooled, it proves that he can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, and he has already messed up, then the attacker will change sides!
