Chapter Twenty-One: Resurrection of the Dead, Act III—Interlocking
Chapter 18: Resurrection of the Dead, Act III: Interlocking
The talisman that Twilight left in the air resembled the shape of a little elf, but without the embellishment of wings.
The magic charm is transparent, reflecting the light in the sunlight, and it expands little by day in the face of the scorching evil.
At first, its concrete shape was still visible, but slowly the edges faded as if blending into the sunlight, and finally the illusion stopped growing, leaving only a humanoid in a halo.
The figure was tightly curled up and crouched on the ground, but it could still be seen that he should be very tall when he stood upright, more than seven feet tall. (The seven feet here is more than seven feet, please don't use the ancient height standard to convert, it is just a metaphor for the person who has grown tall.) )
Blinded by Twilight's actions, the Fighting Evil pounced on Twilight's body and came to a near-halt in the middle of the road, anger turning into doubt in his splitting eyes.
Why? Could Shi Duyun just let him go? How could it be? The murderous Shi Duyun would let him go, a sinner who deceived the king?!
I can't believe it. It wasn't until he saw the human form in the halo gradually turn into a physical entity that he realized:
It's not that Shi Duyun doesn't kill him, but he doesn't bother to kill him personally.
The Cloud Dragon King looked down on him, a small deceitful general, and contemptuously wanted to use a warrior conjured up by a phantom talisman to destroy himself.
Thinking of this, the Burning Evil felt that his whole body was surrounded by anger.
Not just anger, but humiliation.
If he couldn't do a blow, he had already become an outcast of the ghost Shura, but in any case, he was also a descendant of the most noble race in the land of Shazhou, the Yunlong clan.
How could he be subjected to such contempt?!
If the Cloud Dragon King did it himself, for him, he could still retain a little bit of the dignity of a warrior.
But now, with everything the Cloud Dragon King doing had ruthlessly trampled his dignity into the ground, how could he not be angry?
The eyes of the scorching demon were red, and a violent roar came out of his mouth, and his body that was like a beast slumped down on the humanoid illusion in front of him again.
At this moment, this humanoid talisman has become a stumbling block in his eyes, and the Burning Evil wants to eradicate it, and then go to Shi Duyun to fight him alone and regain his dignity.
'Even if you die!, not by your hands!!'
The scorching sound roared at the humanoid talisman like thunder, and the body had already rushed to the front, and two arms full of green tendons and muscles smashed like sledgehammers from the heads of the humanoid talisman on the left and right sides.
After a loud bang, Burning Evil only felt that his fists were almost shattered, and the huge impact made his fists instantly numb.
After looking at it, he found that the humanoid illusion that had been firmly trapped between the huge body was gone, and only a white mist remained.
And his fists were scarred and blurred because of his furious strength and fist style.
Yes, the Scorching Evil Ground is not an entity at all, and the humanoid entity has long since disappeared elsewhere.
The Blazing Demon only hit a layer of mist, and then his fists pierced through the mist, destroying his own hard shell like a clam shell that was about to pinch the creature inside it with too much force.
The first move was miscalculated, and the Burning Fighting Evil realized that he had underestimated the enemy, but the illusion body in his impression had no ability to attack, and even the Cloud Dragon King could not create an illusion body that could attack.
Is there no phantom at all? But what is the materialized image that I just saw in a moment? Is it dazzling?
'Impossible,' thought to himself, his eyes searching back and forth in the empty space.
"No way, I'm not going to be wrong at that close distance, that man fought me, maybe Twilight used his corpse to create a physical illusion?"
The so-called physical phantom is to use the corpse of a certain person to add the phantom charm to the corpse's heavenly spirit cover, embed it in it, and let the phantom form in the corpse's head.
In this way, the magic charm will reshape a usable brain for the deceased, and use the brain's communication to allow the corpse to move and fight.
Of course, this is time-limited, and the physical phantoms made by the more powerful characters can sustain the fight for three to five hours, and no more than six hours at most.
However, in order to make an entity phantom, the first condition is that the corpse must be intact, the corpse in Shi Duyun's hand just now has been mutilated to the point that it is no longer human, how can it still be used?
As he thought about it, it occurred to him that the corpse had been crushed by Shi Duyun's hands and feet, and his internal organs had been cut out, and even his jaw was gone, but the only thing that was intact was his brain.
Why didn't Shi Duyun destroy his brain? The Burning Evil Cult figured out who Shi Duyun was, a broken corpse could be repaired by spiritual magic in an instant, and as long as the brain was not destroyed, he could still make a physical phantom.
Yes, it must be.
It seems inevitable that I will fight that guy again. ’
The guy mentioned in the mouth of the Burning Evil Spirit, everyone must have guessed it, is the Koma Ghost mentioned in the previous chapter.
Let's talk about the origin of the ghost and what he has to do with it.
As mentioned above, Koma is one of the Seven Corpses who survive by eating the remnants of corpses.
The reason why the Eight Shura did not ambush and snipe Shi Duyun and Wushuang Rajia at the beginning was that they were blank for a while, and it was not until Shi Duyun arrived in the town of Sugo that the first sniper began.
It was because they went to find the Seven Corpses first.
Mi Lu Xiu is really a powerful character, his arrangements are interlocking, the seven corpses and the eight generals are only one person apart, and the seven corpses are famous in the rivers and lakes for daring to do anything for money.
According to Miluxiu's instructions, they successfully found the hidden corpses of the seven corpses, dug them out and defeated them, but did not kill them.
First of all, in line with the principle that the general will not be subject to the orders of the foreign king, all orders after arranging the war are issued by his own women, but his daughter is not allowed to go to war, and she must turn back safely.
Then, tear off the cloud dragon seal of the eight generals of Po Zhi to prevent them from being caught by Shi Duyun.
However, he didn't want to lose the eight generals so easily, so Milouxiu arranged two talismans for them:
The first is the mysterious winged spirits who go with them, who are responsible for strengthening their strength in battle.
The second is the cover of the seven corpses, bringing the seven corpses to the battlefield, and once a certain Bhara Shura has to face it head-on, he will transform into the appearance of the seven corpses.
If they are killed, the Shura will no longer have the Holy Seal anyway, and the Shura will be punished as a rebel.
If you're lucky enough not to die, but instead kill Twilight or Peerless Raja, then dump the body of one of the seven corpses on the spot and let them take the blame.
Anyway, the Seven Corpses are not very good, there are many people who hire them, and there are many people who kill them.
In the end, even if you investigate, you can't find a clue, so you have to stop it.
In fact, the Eight Asuras of the Buddha do not know the body method in the Secret Law Hall of the Inferior Heaven, and the so-called resurrection of the soul by borrowing the corpse is that Miluxiu hopes to borrow the seven corpses to return the soul of the Eight Asuras.
After all, they are cronies who have been cultivated by themselves, and as long as they complete the task and leave no evidence, Miloucius still hopes that they will turn back.
But a mountain is higher than a mountain, and Milouxiu's plan was completely seen through by Shi Duyun, just like Shi Duyun himself said, he was waiting, waiting for the right time to make a move.
With the help of the Cloud Dragon Sky Eye, Shi Duyun had already discovered that there was something abnormal in the cemetery in the mountain col, and he deliberately hid in the mountain col, facing away from danger, just to lure the enemy to attack.
In fact, not long after Shi Duyun arrived at the mountain pass, he closed the Cloud Dragon Sky Eye, and had been sensing the movement behind him by relying on spiritual magic.
The step-by-step CD of the Giant Peak Fire Scythe was within his grasp.
By the time the Giant Peak Fire Scythe moved overhead to attack, the Stone Twilight Cloud below had already been replaced by a Phantom Talisman Humanoid.
As I mentioned earlier, the phantom body created by Shi Duyun with the illusion magic seal is also unique to the entire sandbar land, not only vivid, but also moving, no different from the real thing.
He calculated the timing of the attack of the Giant Peak Fire Scythe, and used the phantom body to guard there instead, while he had actually jumped to the top of the cliff and opened the Cloud Dragon Sky Eye again to observe everything.
The moment the attack fell, there was a place where a large amount of physique and mana emanated, and Shi Duyun's see-through pupil power went underground and found the target.
Then, it is to use the queen bee to force out the Shura.
Then three problems remain:
One, why didn't the eight generals kill the seven corpses as soon as they were caught, but wait until they were defeated before killing?
Second, why didn't Shi Duyun directly scan the ground with the Eye of Heaven in the first place, but waited for the surprise attack to find the enemy?
Third, who was the corpse that Shi Duyun killed, and why did he have to take this person's body with him when he left?
These are three questions with both simple and complex answers, and they involve a piece of the past, so I can't talk about it here, sorry.
But one thing can be told to everyone, it is not a phantom humanoid who is about to fight against the Burning Demon, but a real Pony Oni who has received the golden mana of the Cloud Dragon King.
The head of the Seven Corpses, the Koma Oni is a man of outstanding temperament and natural powers, and his weapons are the whip on his head and the giant scythe (a truly giant iron scythe) in his hand.
Shi Duyun gave him the ability to recover and the mana to compete with the cloud dragon Shura, and in the next chapter, between the lightning and the stone and fire, the Pony Ghost will fight against the evil spirit!
