Volume 1: The Return of Ten Thousand Miles, Yan Yue, Chapter 6: Sword Shadow
Winter days are fleeting, and darkness descends silently.
The ruined Yangguan City in the bleak night, it seems even more dead and lonely, countless negative breaths at this moment reached the peak state of gushing out of the ground, turning into a terrifying appearance, resentful souls, wandering and drifting in the ruins and vast wilderness, muddy and nightmarish loss of true self, but the resentment in the depths of the soul does not disperse, supporting them after nightfall, with the help of the negative magnetic field here for a short period of time, if it occurs in the ordinary mundane area, it is bound to cause all kinds of supernatural disasters, which may lead to thousands of miles of red land, chickens and dogs are not left, but ironically, there are no more living creatures left to poison.
Beiyangguan, which was full of flowers in the past, has now turned into a ghost city, which is more gloomy and depressing than Yangguan City in the daytime.
At this moment, from the direction of Langya City, hundreds of streamers and shadows flew out at great speed, galloping in the boundless sky of the Northern Wilderness like a locust crossing the border, and quickly surrounded the border!
Their overall strength is quite good, and the weakest ones are also mortal fifth ranks, and they are led by experienced masters in the transcendent realm.
Such a team size lineup is enough to uproot some famous mortal sects overnight, even if it is to conquer some dangerous secret realms, it can be safely covered.
This team of 100 people galloped all the way, spent three hours, and finally reached the border, and landed at the head of Beiyang Pass.
After these people landed on the top of the city, they immediately felt a terrifying cold cold, directly into their limbs and hundreds of remains, and after a while, there were several lowly people, their faces were bitter and cold, their lips were purple and blue, their cheeks were pale as paper, their eyes were as red as ghosts, and they felt like falling into an ice cellar, and they couldn't help but tremble violently, as if they had been soaked in tobacco poison for a long time, and they were already terminally ill and about to die.
The figures in the hundred-person team were wrapped in gray iron cloaks, like flags hunting in the wind, everyone was very indifferent, they were all watching coldly, and no one had the idea of helping these lowly monks.
Among them, the leader of the center of the hundred-man team cast a disdainful glance at the men, his eyes dark like the eyes of two bloodthirsty wolves, revealing the natural aura of a fierce beast, flickering in the darkness. He said coldly: "What a heavy yin qi and resentment! Although you are a few people with the lowest realm here, you are also a good hand in the mortal cultivation, and your physique is much different from ordinary people, and you have also helped the organization to kill a lot of people in a hurry, but you can't resist the negative aura here...... It seems that there were really a lot of people who died here back then, and this resentful aura that could easily erode the good hands of mortal fifth-stage people was formed by the convergence and condensation of many dead souls. β
The "Save ......" people are extremely terrifying, they can clearly feel that their lives are being eaten, and at the same time, they vaguely feel that something seems to have penetrated into their bodies, and that thing is constantly eating them!!
"Humph! It's too late, you are too weak, didn't you inquire clearly before you came, after the bloody battle six years ago, the millions of miles of this border area have been turned into a forbidden area of death, and there are all kinds of terrifying negative breaths breeding, once it is night, this is the terrifying Shura battlefield. Especially here, Beiyang Pass, there are millions of people who are concentrated by the wolf clan to sacrifice blood to refine the evil law, the resentment and death here are the most intense and concentrated, once you can't resist being infiltrated into the body, the gods are difficult to save. The man with the name said indifferently.
"Dieβyou waste, there are still a lot of sword shadows!" The leader's eyes were cold, and he ruthlessly opened the button, calling out the code name of their organization.
Sword Shadow is an assassination group led by some empire bigwigs after the bloody war, under the guise of a branch of the Sword Sect, although it has not been established for a long time, but the record is amazing, and it has done a lot of dirty work for many empire bigwigs.
"Nope! It's not the same as saying yes! "Some people can't accept this fact, they are willing to come to this forbidden area of death that is forbidden like the hell of Senluo, they are here to seek the wealth of a lifetime, but they don't even think that they will not even see the shadow of wealth, and in the blink of an eye, they will become a dead corpse in this few forbidden areas, they are full of unwillingness and resentment.
As the leader said, those people have been completely eaten up by the dead and evil qi here, and the flesh and skin of their bodies have completely dried up, and there is no trace of blood and human color, and the breath of life fire that belongs to the living soul has been completely extinguished just now, and it has been replaced by a unique yin and evil aura of the dead spirit, which symbolizes that they have entered the inhuman realm.
He has been transformed from a human into a zombie Deadpool, a slave to the soul of a resentful soul!
"Since you don't help me, go to hell with us!" Some people shouted directly, looking hideous like evil ghosts, to this point, they naturally had no scruples, and they vented their bottom and acted wantonly.
Those people rushed to the accomplices around them, and one by one they all summoned Rin Li, showing their housekeeping skills, and wanted to pull a cushion.
But those who can still resist freely in such a place where the anger of death and resentment is intertwined, which one is a mortal.
In the blink of an eye, a bleak sword light swept by, and those who came out were cut into several pieces in mid-air without even touching the corners of everyone's clothes, but the sword light shot so fast that even most of the people present didn't know who was making the shot.
But only the elite members of this hundred-person team knew who the owner of this sword light was.
Witnessing these former accomplices slashed into pieces with a single sword, a female member in a gray-iron cloak did not pay much attention to them, but instead looked further into the streets and ruined houses of the city, where the spirits of the dead wandered and let out heart-rending weeps like a curse.
Suddenly, her face revealed a complicated look, I don't know if it was sadness or something else, she opened her mouth and said: "The first city in the Northern Wilderness in the past has now become so bare and thousands of miles, ghosts and ghosts are rampant, and the yin qi is overwhelming, as if it has come to the underworld. β
At this moment, another voice came out, and when he heard the voice, he knew that it was a young man, and there was a domineering and pride in his tone that was unique to his age: "I went through that scene six years ago." The Northern Wilderness Blood War', with the Ghost Slaying Pass and the Beiyang Pass as an extension, runs through a million miles long, such as a poisonous blade will completely pierce the leylines of the Northern Wilderness, the leylines of this million lands have completely collapsed, breeding endless negative breath, the day is still acceptable, by the emperor's star flame, these negative breaths will be suppressed under the ground, at that time even this group of waste people can resist one or two, but at night, lose the suppression of the emperor's star light, these negative breaths will multiply and surge, and the thousands of creatures who died here, the remaining unwillingness and resentment, will also appear with these negative breaths, but this is not the most serious place, if you do it, I can all be flattened with a swordοΌ β
He was the one who had just swung the sword, holding a tightly wrapped sword weapon in his arms, and his handsome face like jade under the gray iron cloak, such a person should not have appeared in the group of hunters walking in the darkness, but should have enjoyed the prosperity of the world in some peaceful and prosperous city, and laughed at the world.
"Don't do anything superfluous!" The leader spoke again and rebuked him coldly.
His aura was strong and domineering, as deep and dark as this boundless night, and just a light reprimand made everyone present feel extremely coercive and dare not act recklessly.
As long as he wants, he can kill more than half of the people here in an instant.
"Yes......" Although the rebellious young man was domineering, he had been in this business for a long time, and he had gradually established some rules for dark hunters.
The leader looked at everyone coldly, stretched out his finger, and slowly pointed to the direction of the Ghost Slaying Pass outside Beiyang Pass, a hundred miles away, and said, "The goal this time is there...... Ordered, uproot the ghost slaying relationship, and kill a piece of armor without leaving a piece of armor! β
"My lord, is the target really that person?" The female member asked faintly, her eyes revealing indescribable jealousy.
"According to the news transmitted by the dark stake we set up in the ghost slaying pass, that person seems to have no resemblance to the person back then, but he is just a mortal monk who cannot be transcendent, but the upper head is extremely sensitive to the traces left by that person back then, after all, when he was in his heyday, he was undefeated in the world, and many celestial monks who were more advanced than him and experienced died in his hands, how can you not be afraid of it." The leader said quietly.
As he spoke, he also looked at the domineering young man just now, and said, "I'm right, right?" Sword Demon - Xiao Yao? Otherwise, as a member of the Yujing Sangui Xiao clan, how could you be willing to join this 'Sword Shadow' organization that encompasses the world's sword cultivation and escapes into the dark shadows? β
When the black wolf mentioned the past, the momentum of the rebellious young man became arrogant again, even the leader who was higher than his realm cultivation could not overwhelm the competitive desire and self-confidence in his bones, his eyes instantly became fierce and blazing, and he said: "I have not been defeated...... During the assassination of the Dragon Blood Lake six years ago, I stabbed him with a sword, a fatal and sharp sword!! β
The leader scoffed at this and said coldly: "Hmph! There is no big man among the three nobles to join forces to start a hunt, just rely on you, what qualifications do you have to challenge that person, even if he is seriously injured and has not recovered, the strength of the realm is precarious, but even then, the transcendent monk is also a mole ant in his eyes! β
Xiao Yao was stabbed in the sore spot, and he opened his mouth sharply and fought back: "You fart!" How many people can kill and injure celestial cultivators in the transcendent realm, with this merit, I am enough to be proud of the family, don't think that your realm cultivation is higher than mine, you can be unscrupulous, I am the descendant of the Xiao family, what are you and the sword shadow? In my Xiao clan's opinion, it is just an ant projectile, which can be destroyed with a snap of a finger. β
The leader still snorted disdainfully, and said, "Heh, it's true that you stabbed him with a sword, but why didn't you say anything about being hit hard by his backhand?" β
The leader mentioned the unspeakable scars again, Xiao Yao suddenly had a blatant killing intent in his heart, in this team, he did think that the leader had the strongest comprehensive strength and the most rich hunting experience, but Xiao Yao was also a veteran of all the battles, and he really wanted to tear his face, even if the realm rank of the leader was higher than Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao still had enough confidence and ability to fight with him.
In an instant, the cold aura around Xiao Yao's body surged, turning into a series of terrible and ruthless sword lights that rushed straight to the door of the black wolf's face, the speed was as fast as cold lightning, and the more than 100 sword cultivators on the spot stopped breathing in an instant, their faces were horrified, and their expressions were terrified!
Such a distance, such a fast and deceitful sword qi, for the vast majority of sword cultivators in the scene, it is a completely difficult means of instant killing, and a single sword slash is enough to extinguish vitality!
And the leader was not afraid, and the deep and domineering dark aura was freed up around his body, turning into a fierce and vicious black wolf, and slaughtered towards the oncoming sword qi, the two breaths collided fiercely, but the strength and weakness were clear, and in an instant, the deep and domineering dark aura suppressed the aggressive cold sword qi, directly blasted Xiao Yao out, and smashed heavily under the ruined Yangguan City.
Although this blow was terrifying, the black wolf did not use enough strength, otherwise even if Xiao Yao was a sword demon, he would have to suffer a lot of internal wounds.
"You ......" Xiao Yao glared at him angrily.
The leader's pupils were heavy and resolute, he looked at Xiao Yao condescendingly, didn't want to bother to say more, and said coldly: "Don't make any more noise, everything is arranged by me for this mission, if you are really capable, take down that person's head, isn't this also the reason why you joined the Sword Shadow Organization and practiced penance for six years?" If you can obtain his head, you can swagger back to the Xiao clan family and prove yourself to your father and brother, otherwise you can only live in the shadow of the Sword Pavilion and be a nameless ant to steal life. β
"You wait...... I'll kill him myself this time! Six years ago, he should have died, if it weren't for the palm he struck at that time, why wouldn't I have broken through the transcendent and advanced to the realm of heaven and man now! I'm unwilling! I'm unwilling! Xiao Yao's cold aura surged and attacked, like a sharp sword with a cold hilt, and there was no wind around his clothes, and at the same time there were bursts of sharp sharp roars.
In the Dragon Blood Lake assassination incident that shook the Eastern Continent six years ago, Xiao Yao was one of the new generation of seed-level geniuses sent by the Yujing Sangui, and that planner planned to introduce Jun Moxiao step by step into the decisive battle set up by the three nobles through the normal battle between the monks of the same generation, and completely extinguish the last flame of the Flowing Fire Legion.
But Jun Moxiao's strength far exceeded the layout person's estimate, even if he was severely injured in the bloody battle of Yangguan, but those seed-level geniuses who were regarded by Yujing Sangui as the survival and future hope of the family, even if Jun Moxiao pressed the realm strength down to the level equal to them, it would be difficult for everyone to get out of two rounds and be defeated.
Only a few people withstood his domineering and incomparable wildfire fist power and led him into the killing game, so that this young general completely disappeared from the front of people.
And among those people, the most outstanding performance was the sword demon Xiao Yao, who actually killed and injured Jun Moxiao with his treacherous and surprising transcendent fast sword, although this was caused by Jun Moxiao being able to pick up the leak after fighting against nine transcendent masters and a celestial monk.
But killing the celestial realm with the transcendent realm can indeed blow for a lifetime, because the difference between the two is so huge, only an expert knows that there are often amazing and brilliant geniuses in the transcendent realm, relying on their own superb understanding or tempered killing skills, to carry out counterattacks across several ranks, which is not uncommon among demonic seed-level geniuses. However, there are very few situations and events related to reverse felling in the realm of heaven and man, and the difficulty of this kind of reverse felling is not the same as that of the transcendent reverse felling, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as difficult as ascending to the sky, and all of those who can carry out reverse felling in the realm of heaven and man are the human monks who eventually become the leader of the Great Dao Dragon or the existence of the level of myths and legends.
It can be seen that the difference between transcendence and celestial beings is huge, which is also where Xiao Yao's confidence lies in being so arrogant.
But even so, Xiao Yao was also greatly counterattacked, and his own foundation was almost damaged by that person, even if the Xiao clan poured resources to repair his wounds, it took four years, and at the same time, this foundation injury also brought him a great hidden danger to the realm of heaven and man!
I don't know when he began to fear the impact of the heavenly ravine, which was far away from the heavens, he was afraid that he would fail, which almost turned into a demon that trapped him, so that he might not dare to try it for six years or even in his life.
So, he joined the Sword Shadow Organization, and he wanted to kill the person who had brought him this fear and confusion, so that he could break the shackles of his demons and go one step further and ascend to the throne below one man and above all souls.
He's going to replace that person as the youngest Celestial Monk! That person is a Celestial Monk who achieved it at the age of 18, he is only 17 years old this year, and he still has a chance! There's still a chance!
