Volume 1 Southern Regions Chapter 17 Breaking the Ice
"Hmph, stupid!" Seeing the dagger approaching, the old man's spiritual power was shocked, and he wanted to shake it away, but the dagger was not affected by the spiritual power that was drumming around his body at all, and shot straight at the door in front of him.
"What?!" At the last moment, the old man could only tilt his head slightly, and in the midst of a miserable howl, the silver-white dagger passed diagonally through his left eye, bringing up a puddle of blood.
The old man covered his left eye in pain, blood seeping from between his fingers, and the other eye shot out with infinite murderous intent. Powerful spiritual power erupted from his body, knocking Ling Li, who was several feet away, to the ground.
"Slut, the old man slaughtered you—" The old man roared violently, and the purple sword burst out, slashing at Ling Li, who was already frightened.
"Damn, am I dying like this?" Ling Li closed her eyes, unwilling to think.
At this moment, there was a cracking sound in her ears, the sound of the wind sounded, accompanied by a crisp sound, it seemed that someone appeared in front of her, and the purple sword did not slash it. She opened her eyes, and a familiar figure stood in front of her with a long sword in hand.
"Kou Shan, you're not dead?" Ling Li was pleasantly surprised.
Kou Shan smiled back: "Ha, I'm not so easy to die. ”
Kou Shan, who had just been frozen in ice, did not die, but the Xuanyin cold qi covered his vitality, and the warm current in his body gradually merged into his heart and gradually compressed under the pressure of the Xuanyin cold qi step by step.
His body was already full of cold, only his heart still had a trace of residual warmth, and the warm current that gathered in his heart.
When the cold was about to completely occupy every corner of his body, the warm current in his heart had no way to retreat, and was compressed to one point, like a seed, in which a faint flame was born, quietly swaying and burning.
The flame was a crystal red color, like amber glass, and it seemed to contain infinite spirituality, although it was extremely small, but it gave Kou Shan an illusion that would never be extinguished. Moreover, Kou Shan felt that the breath coming from the flame was very familiar, and there was an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
With the birth of this flame, a stream of heat gushed out from every corner of Kou Shan's body, gathering and rushing in his body, and he also broke the ice at the moment when the old man went crazy.
"You're not dead?" said a look of shock flashed in the old man's remaining eyes.
It was unbelievable that a mortal body had survived by the qi of Xuanyin, but it was immediately replaced by rage.
There seemed to be a flash of fire in Kou Shan's eyes, and he looked at the purple-robed old man, raising his sword and pointing at the other party: "Come on!"
Ling Li was overjoyed to see that Kou Shan had come to life, and when he saw that he was going to fight with the old man in front of him, his eyes flashed with anticipation, and he stepped aside.
"This old man is at least a cultivator of the Consummation of the Spirit Realm, if this kid can even defeat him, then he will embark on the path of cultivation in the future......" Ling Li's eyes lit up.
The old man frantically poured spiritual power into the purple sword, and the purple light on the sword body was flourishing, constantly growing, and finally forming a purple giant sword that was more than a foot long and pressed towards Kou Mountain.
Kou Shan raised his sword to block it, but he actually blocked the purple light giant sword that seemed to be unstoppable. If it weren't for the fact that the sword in his hand was not inferior to the old man's purple sword, it would definitely crumble. But as one of the three lineages of the top evil sect, how could Xiao Jianyin's sword be mortal, even if there was no spiritual power infusion, just the material of the sword body and the huge power of Kou Shan were enough to block this blow.
The sharp pain in his left eye caused the old man to fall into madness, and spiritual power continued to pour into the Purple Sword, trying to cut the person in front of him to pieces.
Kou Shan's pressure increased dramatically, and he began to feel strained, but he couldn't retreat at this time.
Just when the two of them were fighting each other with brute force and spiritual power, Ling Li was silent, coming to the other side from the dead end of the old man's vision. After a little searching, he found his dagger on the trunk of a tree, which still had blood remaining. She looked at the purple-robed old man who was facing away from her and was in a stalemate with Kou Shan, and the corners of her mouth hooked into a smile: "Hey, what a target." ”
The silver-white dagger shot out again, this time, straight through the back of the purple-robed old man's head.
A complex look of stunned, unwilling, angry and other emotions appeared on the old man's face, and then he fell to the ground, and the purple sword, which had lost its spiritual support, also returned to its original shape and fell to the ground.
Ling Li stepped forward to pick up the purple sword, touched the body of the sword, and praised: "The old guy's sword is not bad. Then he took it into his pocket, came to Kou Shan's side and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good job, are you okay?"
Kou Shan shook his head, indicating that it was okay.
Ling Li held him down and said, "Don't move, let me see your wounds." As he spoke, he asked Kou Shan to take off his shirt, and Kou Shan took off his shirt as he said, revealing his strong upper body.
Ling Li let out a low snort, and in the moonlight, he saw that Kou Shan's body was covered with wounds of different depths, and a small new wound was added to his right shoulder.
"Why do you have so many scars?" she asked, she couldn't imagine how many people could have so many scars.
Kou Shan replied disapprenosingly, "Oh, these are the wounds I left when I fought the beast, what's wrong?"
Ling Li shook his head and asked, "Have you been fighting with fierce beasts in the wilderness since you were a child, didn't you say that there is an old man with you?
Kou Shan recalled that since he was five years old, the old man had spent most of his time in retreat, only coming out every once in a while to instruct him on his martial arts, and the rest of the time he lived alone, so he replied, "He spent most of his time in retreat alone in the cave. ”
"What about your parents? Did he mention it to you?"
"Parents, what's that?" Kou Shan asked strangely when he heard the word for the first time.
"yes, it looks like he never mentioned it to you...... Maybe he didn't know either. After Ling Li explained what his parents were, Kou Shan couldn't help but wonder, where were his parents, and why did the old man never mention them to him?
Seeing him in a daze, Ling Li thought that he was thinking about his life experience, and a sense of sympathy rose in his heart, and he made up the plot of his parents being hunted down by the enemy and entrusting the old servant to escape from the wilderness before he died, and his gaze at Kou Shan was a little softer than before.
Ling Li examined the wound on Kou Shan's shoulder and found that the wound had healed, and secretly said in his heart Could it be that he had been injured too many times, and his body's recovery function had also become stronger?
After taking off the purple-robed old man's storage bag and kicking his body into the river, the two of them went to the city.
Ling Li originally wanted to take Kou Shan back to that manor, kill that Shen Yexu, and relieve the hatred in her heart, but when she thought of the wound on Kou Shan's shoulder and the scars all over her body, she didn't say it, even if this guy would agree to come down nine times out of ten.
"That guy can't wait for the old guy to go back, he will definitely get out of there. Forget it, next time I have a chance to settle accounts with him. Ling Li thought to herself.
The deep blue night sky was full of moonlight, and under the bright moonlight, the two of them marched towards the city unhurriedly, while Ling Li counted the purple-robed old man's storage bags, and let out a satisfied laugh from time to time.
"Kou Shan, do you know what is the fastest way to obtain cultivation resources?"
Kou Shan shook his head.
"It's robbery. Ling Li chuckled.
Ling Li was originally half-joking, but Kou Shan looked thoughtful.
