Chapter 38 of the Soul Realm Continuation: Shadow Demon
I jumped up and appeared directly outside the room through the door, I felt a faint murderous aura, and I was quickly moving around, even if I mobilized my soul power, it was difficult to locate his position.
In terms of footwork alone, this hidden killer in the shadows should be one of the strongest I have ever met, and I stood outside the door for a minute when I suddenly felt the aura disappear.
I reacted instantly, and turned around and rushed into the room, I saw Shen Qianmeng standing in a corner, there seemed to be a vague black shadow behind her, but I saw a silver-white short blade on her neck, I knew that someone had kidnapped her, and this killer had just deliberately lured me out of the room.
"Zhuo Shengtian, I finally saw you, and I can often hear the master mention you. A deep voice came from behind Shen Qianmeng.
"Your master is a ghost, isn't he?" I asked coldly.
"I'll give you a choice now, is it your life or hers?" the voice asked coldly.
"Is there a third option, I want your life!" I said coldly.
"I don't think you have that ability. The voice said coldly.
I sat down cross-legged in place, and the black shadow was stunned for a moment, and asked me a few more times, but I didn't answer again, and just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt a powerful force shake over him.
The black shadow flew straight back The walls of the room were shattered, and the silver-white short blade fell to the ground, I walked over and helped Shen Qianmeng who fell to the ground to pick up, and then walked out through the hole in the wall.
I saw a dark figure lying on the ground, it was not a person but a soul, I summoned the soul and walked towards him step by step, but he didn't move, just looked at me coldly.
"Who the hell are you?" I asked coldly.
"Zhuo Shengtian, you won't kill me, those friends of yours are all lying down. The black shadow said with a sneer.
"Tell me how to solve the Gu!" I said coldly.
"Maybe you won't need it. The black shadow said with a sneer.
Before I could react, a long sword stabbed me in the back and the tip of the sword stabbed out of my chest.
"It's still the master!" the shadow got up from the ground.
When I turned around and saw that it was Shen Qianmeng standing behind me, I stood still stupidly, until the black shadow behind me condensed a soul long sword and stabbed into my back, and I spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"It's over......" Shen Qianmeng condensed a handprint.
The handprint was imprinted on the hilt of the sword, and in an instant, a powerful force poured into my body along the blade, and suddenly I felt it vibrate to every corner of my body, and I fell to my knees.
The black shadow struck me in the back with a palm, and two blades peeked out of my body and nailed to the wall, and I fell to the ground completely, and I found that my strength was all dissipated in an instant, and my body could not move, like a crippled person.
"Didn't you expect this to be the result?" Shen Qianmeng asked coldly.
"I didn't think it would be you. I said coldly.
"Oh?" Shen Qianmeng asked with a smile.
"I guess you shouldn't really be Shen Qianmeng?" I asked after thinking about it.
"Your accurate judgment. Shen Qianmeng said with a smile.
"And who are you?" I asked coldly.
"My name is Shadow Demon, and I am the number one killer of the Soul Clan, and I have been following my master until this time. Shen Qianmeng said.
"And what is that dark shadow behind me?" I asked, confused.
"My body and soul body are separated, and that black shadow is my soul body, we practice separately, and we have a unified mind but can act separately, so I deceived you. The Shadow Demon said with a smile.
"So from the beginning, this was a trap to lead me to the Phaseless Palace to rescue you?" I asked coldly.
"That's right, that's the master's plan. The Shadow Demon said.
"Alright, let's do it. I looked at her and said.
"I'm sorry about that!" the Shadow Demon reached out and summoned his sword and stabbed at me.
At this moment, I closed my eyes and waited for death to come, but just as the shadow demon was about to stab me, a person appeared in front of me to block the attacking long sword, and I opened my eyes and saw that it was Ning Fengqian.
"Master, I'm back. Ning Fengqian said.
Xiao Bai also flew over and struck at the Shadow Demon, and the powerful sound wave made the Shadow Demon fly out uncontrollably, hitting the two blades on the wall behind him, and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The shadow rushed towards me, and the Nightmare Tree appeared behind me, spitting out a puff of black gas, knocking the shadow flying and falling to the ground, unable to move.
"Master, are you alright?" Ning Fengqian helped me up.
"You'll be fine if you're a little late. I looked at him and smiled.
The black shadow flashed into the body of the shadow demon, the shadow demon jumped up and looked at me and disappeared in place, Xiao Bai and Xiao Wu returned to the spirit beast space, and Ning Fengqian helped me back to my room.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Ning Fengqian felt that something was wrong with me.
"My strength is gone, and I feel that I should have been hit by some kind of seal, which is the appearance of Gu poison. I said helplessly.
"What should I do then?" Ning Fengqian asked worriedly.
"Ning Fengqian, has Senior Dugu Lian been contacted?" I thought about it and asked.
"The messenger who went out to deliver the letter has already sent a reply, and Senior Dugu Lian said that he would leave immediately, but I think it will take four or five days to get here from the hidden realm. Ning Fengqian said.
"Everyone has fallen from the Gu, and now you are the only one in the Wraith Hall who can guard it. I looked at Ning Fengqian and said.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you, master. Ning Fengqian said.
"I thought it was over, but I didn't expect that everything I had done before would become useless. I said that I had hit the Wuxiang Palace before, and I didn't see the master behind the five major halls, the ghost brake appearing, it turned out that it was just a bait. Shen Qianmeng must be there in the ghost brake, but now I don't even know where the shadow of the ghost brake is, so it seems that I can only wait for him to come to me. I said helplessly.
"If the shadow demon escapes, he will definitely tell the ghost brake, and it is estimated that he will send someone to find his master soon. Ning Fengqian said.
"I can only wait. I nodded helplessly.
Then it was a long and boring waiting time, and in order to pass the time, I took out the five Demon God Classics I got from Xiao Qing, and carefully studied them, and discovered the huge amount of knowledge in them.
In this way, three days passed, and the first fallen Yuntong actually healed himself, and when he came to his senses and came to my room, it scared me all of a sudden, but soon I smiled.
"Brother Shengtian, it's Qian Meng, she ......," Yuntong cried.
"I already know that Akane is a killer under the command of Onisha, the shadow demon in disguise. I comforted her by touching her hair.
"No wonder. Yun Tong was also surprised.
"Sure enough, as Mu Die said, this Gu poison has a time limit, since you woke up, I think other people should also wake up one after another, so I don't have to worry. I said with a smile.
"Master, I'm worried about the Gu poison on your body. Ning Fengqian said.
"Don't worry about me. I said with a smile.
About half a day later, the second fallen Na Lan Lin also woke up on her own, and Na Lan Lin immediately came to my room and was shocked when she saw my situation.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" asked Na Lanlin worriedly.
"I'm fine, don't worry. I looked at her and smiled.
After another day, Lu Di and Xing Wei also woke up, and at the same time, Dugu Lian's predecessor came here, asked Xiaobai to go outside the Abyss Valley to pick him up and greet him in person.
"Senior Dugu Lian, you can be regarded as here. I said excitedly.
"Where is the person in the Gu Sect?" Dugu Lian asked.
"I'll take you. "I took Dugu Lian to Mu Die's room, and now only Mu Die and Ji Yu have not woken up, so I placed the two of them in a room.
"Just the two of them?" Dugu Lian asked after standing up after examining it.
"Except for Ning Fengqian, almost all of them have been poisoned by this Gu poison, but since yesterday, they have been sobering up one after another, and these two should be able to sober up on their own today or tomorrow. I said with a smile.
"You mean you don't need me anymore?" Dugu Lian asked.
"Senior's words are serious, when I went to invite you, they all fell into a coma, so I was so worried. I said with a smile.
"You think they'll be fine when they wake up!" Dugu Lian asked coldly.
"Senior Dugu Lian, what do you mean by that?" I asked as I looked at him suspiciously.
"This is a Gu poison called Heaven Eating Gu, although they have sobered up, but the Gu worms are still hiding in their bodies, the Gu worms need a lot of food to maintain their lives, if they don't eat for ten days, it is estimated that the Gu worms will eat their internal organs. Dugu Lian said.
"What!" I was shocked by Dugu Lian's words.
