Chapter 4: Nature

Don't look at Shangguan Xiu's cultivation realm, it's just a smart realm, no different from a beginner.

But he has been cultivating Lingwu for as long as fifteen years, and his knowledge of Lingwu is extremely profound, and he also knows about many out-of-the-way Lingwu, not to mention the famous random change?

Random change is one of the ancient Lingwu, the first from the Lingwu Tantric sect - Linglong Sect, but random change and spirit devouring are both listed as forbidden weapons.

Cultivation changes randomly, which will give the cultivator the ability to change the appearance and even the physical form at will, and when the cultivation reaches the highest level, the cultivator can even change his own gender.

Once a cultivator is refined into random change, he can change in a thousand ways, and become anyone in the world who looks like him. With such a terrifying and mysterious spiritual martial arts skill, it is not surprising that it is listed as a forbidden martial art.

Shangguan Xiu had heard too many legends about random change, and he used to think that random change was just a legend, whether there was such a strange skill in the world, he never imagined that he would be able to see the secret book of random change with his own eyes one day, and even hold it in his own hands.

No wonder! No wonder the old gentleman attracted all the spies of the Duwei Mansion because of such a book, which is a book, but a priceless treasure of spiritual martial arts.

His heart was beating wildly as if it was about to jump out of his throat, and his fingers trembled as he opened the book cover, in which columns of ancient characters and graphics recorded randomly changing cultivation methods.

Just as Shangguan Xiu was almost fascinated by it, a sound suddenly sounded beside him.

Shangguan Xiu felt as if he had been bitten by a snake, he immediately closed the random secret book, hugged it tightly in his arms, and turned his head to look at it.

I saw that one of the three big men who had fallen to the ground stood up tremblingly.

The big man was stabbed three times in the chest and lower abdomen, two in the chest was a scratch, and one in the lower abdomen was a stabbing wound, and as he stood up, blood gushed down the wounds on his chest and lower abdomen.

Dahan didn't even glance at the wounds on his body, his gaze fell directly on the book that Shangguan Xiu held in his arms, and his eyes were full of greed.

He stretched out his bloodstained hand to Shangguan Xiu tremblingly, and said with a gasp: "Give ...... Give me the book!"

As he spoke, he walked over to Shangguan Xiu.

Every time he took a step forward, Shangguan Xiu instinctively took a step back, and subconsciously hugged the cheats in his arms tighter.

He shook his head in horror and said in a trembling voice, "I...... I promised the old gentleman that I would send the book to Ningjun......"

"He is a traitor, he wants to hand over the book to the rebels, you help him deliver the book, it is treason, you are a member of the rebel party, you will be executed by Ling Chi, and the whole family will be beheaded!" Dahan walked over to Shangguanxiu step by step, gritting his teeth and threatening.

Shangguan Xiu's face changed suddenly, is the old gentleman a traitor? He looked at the old man's corpse in disbelief, and then looked at the big man who was constantly approaching him, shook his head and said, "You...... You're lying to me......"

Dahan landed on the ground with a knife, took out a token from his arms, threw it on the ground in front of Shangguan Xiu, and said, "I'm a secret agent of the Duwei Mansion, do you think I'll lie to you?"

After a pause, he stretched out his hand again and said, "As long as you give me the book, you will make a great contribution, and the Duwei Mansion, the imperial court, and Your Majesty will reward you heavily! Give it to me!"

Shangguan Xiu had no way of judging whether what the other party said was true or false, if the old gentleman was really a traitor, of course he would not do anything for the traitor, but if he was asked to hand over the random cheats to the other party, he couldn't do it either.

Randomly changing cheats, it is no longer a peerless treasure that can be measured by money in the eyes of spiritual cultivators, even if Dahan now takes out a mountain of gold and silver to exchange it with Shangguan Xiu, he will not change it.

He carefully took the book into his arms, shook his head and said, "No, I don't need any credit, and I can't give it to you!"

When Dahan heard this, his eyes were immediately replaced by an aggressive and fierce light, he stared at Shangguan Xiu without blinking, and after a while, he first giggled, and after a while, he turned into a back-to-back laugh.

As he laughed, a white mist emanated from all around him.

The spirit armor and the soldier spirit were completed by him at the same time. Don't look at the big man's serious injury, but his spiritual martial arts cultivation is still there. He dragged his scarred body, strode towards Shangguan Xiu, and said quietly: "If you don't listen to me, you are a traitor, and you deserve to die if you rebel against the party, and you deserve to die even more!"

The spirit armor on the big man's body covered the wound, making him look like he was fine.

Facing the big man wearing spirit armor and holding a spirit knife, Shangguan Xiu's heart shrank.

He had never fought with a spirit cultivator, not to mention that the big man in front of him was still a high-level spirit cultivator who could complete the spirit armor and the spirit transformation of soldiers at the same time.

He felt the urge to turn around and run away, but his feet felt like they were glued to the ground, and he couldn't move.

Shangguan Xiu knew in his heart that the other party had already seen his appearance, even if he escaped now, then the old man's fate today would be his own tomorrow. He will follow in the footsteps of the old man, and be chased and killed by the secret agents of the Duwei Mansion until he dies tragically under the knife of the other party.

He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to live the days of being chased and killed, and now his only chance was to fight to the death, kill people, and never suffer in the future.

This sudden thought made him break out in a cold sweat. He had never realized that there was such a vicious side hidden in his temperament, and besides, it was like a fantasy to let a junior spiritual cultivator like him, whose cultivation had only reached the Spirit Realm, and could not even complete the Spirit Armor and Soldier Spiritualization alone, to kill a high-level spirit cultivator whose cultivation had at least reached the Spirit Realm.

Dahan didn't give Shangguan Xiu too much time to think about it, he swayed and walked to Shangguan Xiu, and said in a cruel voice: "Boy, you take your life!"

As he spoke, the spirit knife in his hand slashed out with the back of his slanted shoulder strap.

The blade broke through the wind and let out a piercing whistle.

Seeing a cold light flashing towards him in the air, Shangguan Xiu instinctively reacted sideways and threw himself out.

The blade slashed across the clothes on his chest, tearing the placket of his shirt through a gaping hole more than a foot long.

A knife missed, the big man didn't delay for a moment, and he returned with another knife, slashing Shangguan Xiu lying on the ground.

The blood in Shangguan Xiu's body seemed to be about to coagulate, and his hair was about to stand on end, and he screamed and rolled to the side.

There was a crisp click, and the spirit knife slashed into the ground, splitting the ground into a long crack.

If it were under normal circumstances, Shangguan Xiu might not even be able to dodge the other party's knife, but now Dahan is at the end of his crossbow, seriously injured and dying, and the reason why he can still fight with a knife is completely driven and supported by greedy **.

Two consecutive stabs missed, the big man was angry, roared again and again, aimed at Shangguan Xiu who was lying on the ground, and pulled out a third knife.

At the moment of life and death, Shangguan Xiu's potential also burst out, and his body was extremely flexible.

Seeing the flash of the knife, he flipped to the side again.

Because the force used by this knife was too great and too fierce, after the big man slashed out, he involuntarily fell to the ground.

Seeing that Shangguan Xiu was not far from his side, Dahan didn't think about it, he suddenly stretched out his arm, grabbed Shangguan Xiu's clothes with his big hand covering the spirit armor, he used all his strength, and turned back, Shangguan Xiu was pulled back to the front by him.

The bodies of the two were close together, and at such a close distance, the spirit knife could not be used. The big man was also resolute, gave up the spirit knife, used his waist and eyes hard, and sat on Shangguan Xiu's body, and at the same time clasped his hands tightly, and pinched Shangguan Xiu's neck fiercely.

"Give me the book! I want you to give me the book! Give me, give me, give meβ€”" The big man screamed frantically as if he had gone crazy, and while pinching Shangguanxiu's neck. His eyes, which were exposed to the outside of the spirit armor, were red from bloodshot congestion, and he looked like he was about to erupt in flames.

In an instant, Shangguan Xiu felt like a huge iron tong clamping his neck, and its force was so great that he wanted to break his neck bone.

He instinctively struggled, and his hands kept beating the big man's stomach and weakness.

But how could his flesh fist hurt the spirit armor on the spirit cultivator's body, he hammered countless punches, and the big man was not affected at all, but the hand that grabbed his neck became stronger and stronger.

Shangguan Xiu's white face had turned red at this time, and the green tendons on his forehead were stretched high, he grabbed Dahan's wrist with his hand back, trying to pull the other party's hand around his neck away, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull the other party at all.

He clearly felt that his strength was getting smaller and smaller, and his life was rapidly draining away from his body.

Is this going to be the way he wants to die? He is not reconciled!

He is the last bloodline of the Shangguan family, he is unwilling to die like this, he still bears the responsibility of the family, and wants to rebuild the glory of the Shangguan family.

Perhaps it was driven by the instinct of life-saving, or perhaps it was the natural reaction of the body in the extreme state, Shangguan Xiu, who was on the verge of life, naturally used the ancestral spiritual martial arts method to devour the spirit.

As he ran the Spirit Devour, at that moment, the palms he firmly grasped the big man's wrists seemed to stretch into the ocean of spiritual energy, and his two palms were like two open mouths, frantically sucking the other party's spiritual energy.

The aura flowed down the palm of his hand and was continuously inhaled into his body.

It's just that the aura that comes in is too much and too fierce, completely out of his control, and it is all over his body. It was as if a big fist had penetrated into his body, constantly hitting his meridians and internal organs with heavy punches, and the sharp pain that swept through his body instantly made Shangguan Xiu's eyes blacken, and he almost fainted on the spot.

He couldn't help but scream, and at the same time, blood arrows spurted out of his mouth, and blood slowly flowed down his nostrils, eyes, and ears.

At this moment, Shangguan Xiu was suffering from the impact of foreign aura on his meridians and internal organs, and the big man riding on him was even more stunned.

His eyes widened and widened, and his eyes were full of horror and horror. He could clearly feel that his aura was being continuously sucked away by the young man under him, he didn't understand what was going on, he had never seen or heard of this kind of spiritual martial arts skill that could suck away the aura of others.

Time seems to stand still, Dahan is still riding on Shangguan Xiu's body, and he is still pinching his neck, but he has changed from active to passive, and his aura is like a wild horse that has escaped from the reins, which is leaking out wildly and is constantly being absorbed by Shangguan Xiu.
