Chapter 8: Exposure
After a period of tossing, Li Hao has gained a lot, especially the killing of the Holy Golden Finger is an unexpected joy. However, this kind of tossing is also quite consuming for him, and as soon as his body moves, he flashes to the bed, and with a flick of his fingers, the lights in the room are also slowly dimmed.
A night of surprise, that's it.
In the early morning of the next day, the closed door slowly opened, Li Hao walked out slowly, squinting slightly at the warm sunlight in the sky, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and the aura in his body moved with his heart, running in his limbs.
Since absorbing the "Buddha Lotus Holy Fire", he has stayed in the "Eight-Star Spirit General" and "Four-Rank Soul Master" for a long time, but after these days of repeated battles, Li Hao can clearly feel that the original realm like a pool of stagnant water seems to have begun to fluctuate, and it is obvious that it is about to reach the bottleneck of breakthrough again.
"Mr. Xiuyun's cultivation is really amazing!" With the encouragement of Li Hao's breath, Li Kang, who came out of the next room, also praised with a smile.
Li Hao smiled slightly, and then asked, "Mr. Likang, I don't know if there is any news?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Xiuyun, if there is any movement, someone will come to report it. Li Kang said with a smile, he is obviously also a clever businessman, yesterday he saw that Li Hao was bound to obtain the Holy Witch Scepter, and he hurriedly found someone to pay close attention to the movements of the man in black, so he saved a lot of effort on the former.
Li Hao nodded, and was about to speak, but saw that one of the subordinates sent by Li Kang yesterday suddenly ran over, and when he saw the two of them, he hurriedly said, "Lord Li Kang, Mr. Xiu Yun, the man in black went to the Black Wind Pavilion just now to receive the auction item and left. ”
Hearing this, Li Hao's pupils suddenly shrank slightly, and he muttered, "The show is finally about to begin." ”
After leaving Mo'er Tianmei Fox in the inn and sealing the protective shield in the room, Li Hao left the inn in a hurry, and along the way, he also heard some news.
"Judging from the rumors in the city, the man in black has obtained the Holy Witch Scepter, but the strange thing is that he did not have the slightest intention of hiding his whereabouts, but walked out of the Black Wind Pavilion with a big grin in the eyes and ears of many people, and now I am afraid that many strong people in the city have already known his whereabouts. ”
When Li Hao said this, his brows were furrowed, what the hell is this guy going to do? Facing many strong people in the city, he is still acting in such a high-profile manner.
"Is it a bait, not a real body?" Li Hao suddenly thought.
"Among the people who are watching, there are many strong people, so it is unlikely that they are stand-ins. Thirteen's voice rang in his head.
"Could it be that he really plans to face these many Sin City forces and powerhouses alone?" Li Hao said with a frown, "With that guy's cautious temperament, it's unlikely that he would do such an impulsive thing." This time, even the two guys from the Blood Gate and the Thousand Swords Sect followed behind, but they were afraid that there would be some trouble. ”
Thirteen pondered for a moment and continued, "In that case, it's useless to speculate here now, it's better to follow him and wait for the opportunity to move then." ”
"Hmm. Li Hao nodded, his figure moved, and ran towards the direction where the man in black left.
And just when Li Hao left, in the Black Wind Pavilion, Black Cliff listened to his subordinates' reports with an indifferent face, and after half a sound, he nodded slightly, waved his hand and sent him back.
"Pavilion Master, there is something wrong with this, that man in black is obviously a cautious person, how can he be so blatant? You know, even if he is really a king-level master, he can't deal with so many strong people!"
"That guy took a lot of precautions when he took out the Resurrection Pill, and at first glance he was a cautious and cunning person, so it was naturally impossible for him to do such a thing. A strange smile appeared on Black Cliff's face, and he said softly.
Seeing the strange smile on Heiya's face, Hei Mu Duan asked cautiously, "Does the Pavilion Master know what that guy is thinking?"
"You'll know, hehe. This Holy Witch Scepter, my Black Wind Pavilion is reluctant to take it out like this" Black Cliff waved his hand, a touch of calm appeared in his eyes, and sneered: "Now, just watch those forces fight and entangle with the black-clothed people, the more people die, the better, so that the time has come for our Black Wind Pavilion to expand its power again." ”
"The Pavilion Master is really wise and far-sighted. Hearing this, Kuroki Duan's face changed slightly, and he immediately said in a respectful voice.
"Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that I, the Black Wind Pavilion, have been studying for so long, but still haven't gotten any benefit from the Holy Witch Scepter, I definitely wouldn't have put this thing up for auction. Looking in a certain direction from afar, Black Cliff's voice became cold, "But no matter whether it can be studied or not, it is the sage's thing after all, it is always best to keep it in your own hands, what I can't get in the Black Wind Pavilion, and other people, don't think about it!"
Just when the Black Wind Pavilion was shrouded in a conspiracy, somewhere in Sin City, the atmosphere was just as tense.
On a small hill, Li Hao condescendingly looked at a mountain road below, in which a black-clothed man didn't seem to feel the wolf-like gaze around him, and walked slowly by himself, and in the distance behind him, the figures were scattered and flashing, and the greedy fiery gaze was hidden through the trunks of the trees in the forest, staring at the black back in front of him.
However, although he coveted the Holy Witch Scepter, no one dared to strike first, after all, he could be so unscrupulous, and his strength would definitely not be low, so no one wanted to be the first bird, they just followed secretly, expecting to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
"What is that guy doing? He is swaggering like this, sooner or later he will attract all the powerhouses in the audience!" staring at the slow black figure, Li Hao's brows furrowed even tighter.
The voice of Thirteen in his head fell silent for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty, "Don't you think there is something abnormal about the aura on his body?"
"Huh?" Li Hao was startled, but before he could speak, there was a sudden figure in the woods around the mountain road.
Feeling the commotion in the woods, Li Hao's eyes turned and became solemn, "Is anyone finally going to do it?"
Just when Li Hao's face became heavy, several figures in the woods rushed out, and then five or six figures with gloomy faces walked out and blocked in front of the black-clothed people, judging from the fierce aura on their bodies, at least they were also strong people like low-level spirit generals.
For the few figures that suddenly appeared, the large group of followers who had been following behind the black-clothed man also slowly stopped.
"Kill, kill him, and you'll get the Holy Witch Scepter!"
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly, and this sentence was like a seedling fire thrown into a powder keg, and in an instant, a piercing sound of breaking wind suddenly broke out in this mountain forest, and even when I saw it, countless figures containing amazing energy shot out from some dark corners!
However, when these figures shot out like raindrops, but when they were still a few feet away from the black-clothed man, they suddenly froze, and then a majestic force exploded like a cannonball, booming, surging aura swept around, and for a while, in this mountain forest, the screams suddenly howled violently.
"Kill him!"
"With the Holy Witch Scepter, you can become the ruler of Sin City!"
The terrible screams did not make the crowd who were occupied by greed retreat, but under the red blood, it aroused the ferocity in the hearts of many people. The next roar resounded in an instant, and in an instant, this mountain forest was completely chaotic, and countless people with weapons rushed towards the black-clothed people frantically, with red eyes, and some beasts that had lost their minds were alive.
For this kind of rabble rush, the man in black did not show the slightest panic, and in a gesture, an astonishing aura shot out. And all those who were swept away by the aura training, unless they were strong people at the peak spirit general level, they all vomited blood and died on the spot.
On the hill, Li Hao looked indifferently at the chaotic situation that broke out in the mountains and forests below, this situation is not very exciting, because this is a completely one-sided slaughter, some forces that really have some strength, at this moment, they have not made a move, and most of the people who do it are some wandering stragglers, this kind of person, in the hands of the man in black, is almost no different from ants, the only difference is the difference between an ant and a group of ants.
"This guy's cultivation is not bad!" Li Hao thought secretly as he looked at the blood-stained woods.
"This man in black is really good-natured, isn't it tiring to kill like this?" Suddenly, a person's surprised voice sounded next to him.
Hearing this, Li Hao also frowned, this man in black is an old and cunning person at a glance, and it is impossible to consume strength with some small soldiers and shrimp here, you know, after this, there must be some powerful strong people to make a move.
"It's a little wrong, the aura on this black-clothed man is not very stable, and it doesn't seem to be pure. In his head, thirteen's voice rang out.
Hearing this, Li Hao was stunned, and then his face changed slightly, he quickly closed his eyes and condensed, focusing all his perception on the man in black.
The perception locked onto the black-clothed man, but perhaps because his body was shrouded in surging energy, Li Hao could only feel a gray existence.
This situation made Li Hao's brows furrow, and he immediately gritted his teeth, and his perception suddenly increased!
With the fierce fluctuation of Xiao Lihao's perception, a tingling sensation gradually came from his head, but he did not stagnate because of this, his perception was like an invisible awl, frantically drilling the layer of energy wrapped on the body of the man in black.
This kind of drilling lasted for about two minutes, and just when Li Hao was about to give up with the stinging pain in his head, he only heard a slight popping sound, and the soul power that had been blocked suddenly surged, and the layer of invisible energy that wrapped the body of the black-clothed man quietly cracked away.
With the cracking of that layer of invisible energy, Li Hao's perception quickly swept away, and with this sweep, his face was stunned, and then a wry smile appeared:
"This guy is still so cautious and cunning!"
:
Under Li Hao's perception, he found that under the black clothes, it was not a substantial body, but an illusory soul power like Thirteen!
That is to say, the black-clothed person below is not the main body, but just an energy body gathered by a part of the soul power after he casts a certain spiritual skill!
"No wonder that cautious guy would go out of the city so swaggeringly, it turned out to be just a soul void, but now, how to find his traces?" Li Hao suddenly fell into helplessness, although he didn't want to face such a strong enemy, but the Holy Witch Scepter in the hands of the black-clothed man was really urgently needed by Mo'er, so it was to be taken away.
Feeling Li Hao's helplessness, Thirteen, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke again, "Here, the one who is most likely to sense his existence is you." ”
"Oh?" Li Hao was surprised.
"You are a fourth-grade soul master, so you are more sensitive to soul power than ordinary people, so if there is movement on the side of the black-clothed person, the first thing you can sense must be you!"
"That's good!" Hearing this, Li Hao suddenly realized, he hurriedly squinted his eyes, and after a while, his eyes suddenly closed tightly, and then his perception surged out again, but this time he was not rushing towards the black shadow below, but was wandering in the sky, constantly scanning back and forth.
Seeing Li Hao close his eyes again, Thirteen also remained silent, he could faintly feel that Li Hao's body was exuding a faint soul power, like water waves, quietly passing through this sky, trying to find the resonance of the same energy.
Since the bloodshed in the mountains and forests continued, perhaps because of the resounding sound of killing, some forces that had not been standing still began to be eager to try. During this period, there were even several high-level spirit generals who joined forces to bully the body of the black-clothed man, but after dozens of moves, in the end, he was still seriously injured by the latter and vomited blood.
But unexpectedly, whether it was the people of the Blood Sect or the Thousand Swords Sect, they still did not move, and they had no intention of making a move at all.
And just when the black-clothed man collided with those strong men, Li Hao, who had closed his eyes tightly, suddenly opened his eyes, and immediately turned his gaze to a forest in the east, where, in the previous moment, there was a faint energy fluctuation coming out.
"Found it?" Thirteen asked, as if sensing it.
"Yes, it seems that the man in black also needs to control this clone, so he didn't go far. Li Hao's face also swelled with joy. Immediately, his eyes swept over the soul clone in the mountains and forests, and he immediately said: "Let's go, wait for those strong people to make a move, this doppelganger will dissipate sooner or later, now we have to find the man in black quickly!"
"Yes. Thirteen answered softly, and then Li Hao's figure flashed, completely disappearing from the small hill.
And when the bloody battle broke out on the side of the black-clothed man, in a remote woods not far away, it was full of tranquility.
In an open space, the black-clothed man sat on the ground, his eyes closed, the majestic soul energy wrapped around his body, his palm wrapped in the black robe flickered in front of him like a flower, and with each flip of his palm, the kind of majestic soul power that permeated his body would fluctuate for a while.
This strange change lasted for a quarter of an hour before the man in black slowly opened his eyes, but just as he was about to get up, his face changed suddenly, and his eyes shot like lightning after a giant tree in the woods, and he said coldly, "Who is it?"
"Haha, the pavilion master has long guessed that your cultivation is not shallow, but he didn't expect that there would be such a means to be able to condense the soul clone, such a strange spiritual skill, I have never seen it in my life. ”
With a burst of laughter, behind the giant tree, a middle-aged man walked out, and Huo Ran was the Black Cliff Pavilion Master.
Looking at the figure that appeared, the black-clothed man's face changed, and the aura on his body suddenly turned cold, "What does the Black Pavilion Lord mean by this?
"Hehe, you don't have to intimidate me, what can reputation do in this Sin City? The people of Sin City don't eat that, and no one will know about this except the two of us. Black Cliff sneered, "What's more, Your Excellency is very good-looking, I don't think you're from Sin City, right?"
"How did you find me?" The man in black breathed much colder, and as soon as his words fell, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and his eyes suddenly became cold: "You did something on the Holy Witch's Scepter?"
"My Black Wind Pavilion isn't that easy to get. Black Cliff smiled faintly: "Don't delay the time, according to my sense, you have just broken through to the Spirit King, not to mention that after using the soul clone, your ontological strength will also weaken a lot, in your state, you are not my opponent, so, give me the Holy Witch Scepter, maybe I can spare your life." ”
Black Cliff thought that this sentence could at least suppress the other party's arrogance, unexpectedly, hearing this sentence, Fu Tianhuo's breath did not have the slightest disorder, but his voice became even colder, faintly surging with infinite killing intent, "Black Pavilion Lord, do you really think that if I am just a small one-star spirit king, dare to snatch the Holy Witch Scepter from the hands of many strong people? If it were you, would you do such a stupid thing?"
Hearing the other party's words, Heiya's face changed, the person in front of him looked like a cautious and ruthless person, but he shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake, could he really have no fear? His face flickered, but then a touch of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and now, there is no turning back!
Thinking of this, with a wave of the Black Cliff robe, the majestic energy of the Six-Star Spirit King burst out like a tide. And Futian Huo was naturally not to be outdone, and the aura of the one-star spirit king also completely exploded at the same time.
The two monstrous momentum collided in this space, and the spatial fluctuations caused directly shook the trees in the forest slightly.
The two-for-tat momentum formed a tense momentum, and just when the two were about to start a shocking battle, suddenly, on the left and right sides of their position, there were two powerful breaths that suddenly broke out at the same time, making the two people who were about to start a desperate battle were shocked and looked at each other suddenly.
I saw that on the left and right sides of the woods, two waves of people flashed out, and the people who took the lead were none other than the Blood Sect Young Sect Master Xuehua and the Thousand Swords Sect Great Elder Qian Mo! They were all aware of the black-clothed man's scheme!
"The two seniors are really treacherous, if it weren't for the cleverness, I would almost not be able to find you. Although Xuehua's words were respectful, his pale face was full of a cold smile, but he quickly turned to the other group of people opposite, and said in a dark voice, "It is worthy of being the second strongest person of the Thousand Swords Sect, and he actually saw through this guy's scheme." ”
"The young sect master is also not far behind," Qian Mo said with a smile, but quickly set his eyes on an old man behind the blood incarnation, and said in a condensed voice, "Compared to the blood dragon who is rumored to have broken through to the five-star spirit king more than a month ago, the deputy gate master of the blood gate, I didn't expect the blood gate to dispatch so many strong people this time." ”
The old man standing behind the blood transformation smiled slightly, but did not answer, the blood gate naturally knew that the peak cultivation with the blood transformation spirit could not interfere, so the door had already sent him to lurk secretly.
And just when the two were talking, the face of the man in black also became a little ugly, at this time, the more strong people appeared, the worse it was for him. With the Holy Witch Scepter in his hand, he is the target of all. (To be continued.) )
