Volume 1: The Origin of the Floating Dragon Chapter 41 The First Fight (I)
This is the emblem of the Moon Worship Sect.
The waning moon is not alone, around the crescent moon, there are circles of mysterious runes arranged in a staggered manner, these runes outlined by pale lines, distributed on the ground in a certain order, connected with virtual or real lines between each other, revealing an inexplicable weirdness.
The solid line is white, and the dotted line is dark red.
It's just that these are nothing, when Li Qing cast his eyes on the center of the room, his pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly, and a chill rushed straight to his head from his back.
In the center of this circle of pale runes, and at the center of that waning moon, a crystalline bright red heart was beating slowly.
Now, Li Qing knew what those dark red dotted lines were all about.
It wasn't dried vermilion paint, it was congealed blood.
Needless to say, these extraordinary blood, along with the crystallized heart, were all contributed by the girl who was killed downstairs.
And what gushes out of this magnificent heart is no longer the blood that sustains human life, but the gray-black substance that is dotted and broken like grains of rice.
It was essentia, but he didn't know what kind of essentia it was, but Li Qing could sense that these essentia didn't match him.
These essentia drifted through the dark room, emitting a faint cold light, adding a touch of chill to the strange room.
Knock knock.
Under Li Qing's gaze, the crystallized heart beat again, and thousands of grains of fine essentia poured out of it, making the essentia breath in the room even stronger.
Li Qing could see clearly, at the moment when his heart was beating, the pale runes on the ground and the solid lines connecting these runes flashed with gray-white light.
It's like breathing, and the frequency of this exhalation and inhalation all depends on the frequency of the heart's beat.
In this "orderly" spectacle, only the waning moon under the heart, which symbolizes the Moon Worship Sect, seems to be really dead, and there is no movement.
Unconsciously, his body was already a little stiff, and Li Qing moved his limbs with a very small amplitude, and with this small movement, he also relieved the tension in his heart a little.
He looked around, making sure there was no other creature in the room than himself, and stepped forward, trying to get closer to the crystalline heart in the center of the waning moon.
In the room, the silence was very remarkable, the beating of the crystallized heart and the flickering of the rune light all happened in the silence, the doors and windows were closed, and if it were not for the immersion, no one would know that there was such a strange room in the bustling apartment.
Essentia permeates the room, for ordinary people, essentia is poison, excessive intake is either death or madness, but Li Qing is in the middle of it, but there is a feeling of being at home like a fish in water.
When Li Qing came to the outside of the rune, for the sake of conservatism, he was about to jump over the rune into the circle, when suddenly, there was a very slight sound behind him.
It was like a ball of cotton falling to the ground, if it wasn't for the awakening of the transcendental, if it wasn't for being in the dark night, Li Qing would never have noticed the slightest sound.
Li Qing's figure stagnated slightly, at this time, instead of panicking at all, he was surprisingly calm.
Being in the dark night, wrapped in shadows, as long as he doesn't make drastic movements, Li Qing is confident, even if he is an extraordinary person, it is impossible to find himself at such a close distance.
Of course, the premise is that the other party's strength cannot be too much higher than his own, which is a common sense that can be understood by oneself without speaking, but if he really encounters this kind of opponent and is deceived by the other party to such a close distance, Li Qing should almost kill himself.
He turned around, but unexpectedly found no trace, and his mind fluctuated, and his gaze shifted downward, only to see the shaggy, limbed figure under the base of the wall.
Li Qing was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect that it was not a person who entered through the window, but a black cat.
A four-legged snow-white cat with jet-black hair.
This kind of cat has the nickname of "treading the snow to find plums" among literati and artists.
In the darkness, the black cat's two round eyes stared motionlessly ahead, and at a certain moment, Li Qing even had the illusion that this noble and mysterious black cat seemed to be able to see through the illusion and see through his body hiding in the shadows.
In the legends, the cat is indeed a very spiritual animal, which can act as a spiritual medium, through psychic, and then communicate with the two worlds of yin and yang, but Li Qing has always scoffed at these statements, and it is a strange force that the son does not say is chaotic, and it is not enough to believe it.
With the spirit of materialism that has always been there, Li Qing quickly expelled those bizarre ideas from his mind.
It is undeniable that Li Qing will think so, and there is also a reason why the black cat's eyes are taken away from him.
The black cat seemed to be also affected by the crystallized heart in the center of the waning moon, and its body bowed slightly, first around the circle of pale runes around a quarter of a circle, and then followed suit, cautiously heading towards the center.
Click.
At this moment, the sound of a door lock suddenly rang, and the metallic sound of the machinery made Li Qing's slightly relaxed nerves tense instantly.
This time, there will never be any cats and dogs.
Someone arrived.
The door opened, revealing a man of medium stature with black single-rimmed glasses, with a few diamonds embedded in the corner of his right spectacle lens, which reflected a moving light in the light of the apartment hallway.
It is the light of money, which shows that the owner of the glasses has a lot of wealth, but also shows the good taste of the owner of the glasses.
A subtle nouveau riche, both in temperament and appearance, coincide with the image of Zheng Yongwen that Li Qing learned.
Zheng Yongwen walked into the room, gently closed the door, and faced the strange scene in the room, there was no color on his face.
From this point, it seems that the fact that Zheng Yongwen committed a murderous crime and his identity as a transcendent behind the elite of the business world can be determined.
If he hadn't been a murderer, he wouldn't have come here.
If he weren't an extraordinary being, he would never have behaved so calmly when he saw this scene in front of him that was beyond the scope of ordinary people's cognition.
When Zheng Yongwen's eyes fell on the black cat that accidentally broke in, Li Qing's hanging heart also fell to the ground.
Li Qing can be sure that even Zheng Yongwen, who is a transcendent person, will not be able to find himself in the shadows and motionless.
This means that, to a certain extent, Li Qing has taken the lead.
After confirming this matter, Li Qing could free up some thoughts to think about his next actions.
For example, how to subdue Zheng Yongwen, and for example, which sequence of transcendents is this Zheng Yongwen.
Four Elephant Messengers, Swordsmen, Stargazers, Gunners, Scholars, Five Sequences, Although Li Qing has not yet begun to study systematically and has not been able to have a systematic understanding of the characteristics of each of the five sequences, he can also know that the five sequences have their own emphasis, and the methods of dealing with them are naturally different.
In the room, the black cat also noticed Zheng Yongwen's arrival, it stopped, its body bowed even more, its tail was slightly cocked, and its two big black eyes stared at Zheng Yongwen tightly, very spiritual.
"Meow."
Zheng Yongwen waited for a while, as if to confirm something, and after hearing this cat meow, two bright yellow runes immediately appeared in the pupils of the black cat.
The next moment, with a terrible cat meow, the whole black cat was instantly engulfed by the flames, and in pain, it spread its four hooves, jumped out of the window it came in, and fell down a five-story building, life and death were uncertain.
In the dark, Li Qing secretly said that it was so dangerous, the trajectory of the black cat's jump, almost crashed into himself, and the moment he staggered, he could even feel the scorching temperature emanating from the black cat's body.
Without time to care about the life and death of the black cat, Li Qing returned his attention to Zheng Yongwen.
At this time, Zheng Yongwen was already surrounded by three flames, and the three flames illuminated the empty room, and also completely exposed the greed in Zheng Yongwen's eyes in front of Li Qing's eyes.
A four-elephant envoy with a different mental state, which is referred to as "abnormal" in the textbook compiled by Song Qiu, can be included in the list of key subjects for observation in their office.
Zheng Yongwen's face showed a morbid intoxication, and the rich essentia in the room stimulated his nerves on the verge of madness, distorting the mind of this transcendent being.
Looking at Zheng Yongwen in front of him, Li Qing felt a sense of strangeness rise in his heart.
Is it the transcendent who controls essentia and steals transcendent power, or does essentia enslave humanity and let them indulge in transcendent power without knowing it?
He kept this question in his heart, hoping to slowly find the answer in his transcendent career.
Zheng Yongwen took a deep breath, as if he was breathing in the sweet scent of essentia around him.
It is true that the refining and absorption of essentia by transcendent beings is by no means something that can be accomplished in such a formalized exhalation and breath, and in doing so, there is no other benefit except for the slight satisfaction of one's own psychological needs.
Immediately afterwards, under the gaze of Li Qing, Zheng Yongwen made a one-handed action to support the moon, his hands were trembling, and the corners of his eyes were beating wildly, as if he was trying his best to restrain something.
Three flames guarded Zheng Yongwen in the center, and the pale runes on the ground seemed to be extinguished with the light of the fire.
Even in such a situation, he was still able to reverently close his eyes and sing:
"There is no sleep in my eyes,"
"You're so foggy."
"Yin Haiyuan was silent,"
"Please grant the faint Boeing to be with me."
"The Holy Venerable is boundless,"
"The moon is eternal."
“……”
At the moment when the word "Heng" fell, a slender shadow, like a ghost beast's claw, stabbed Zheng Yongwen's abdomen.
Boom!
The scorching wind was shining, and with a "boom", the room was full of colorful and gorgeous flowing fires.
The sea of fire is like a torrent, and the slender shadows are rapidly magnified.
The shadows are broken, and the fists are revealed.
Break the hidden blow.
The fireball surrounding Zheng Yongwen could spontaneously protect the lord, but this punch, under the blessing of the shadow, was too fierce and violent, and after breaking the fireball, it still went castrated, and hit Zheng Yongwen's back like a cannonball.
Bang!
Zheng Yongwen's whole person was directly blown away and hit the opposite wall.
In place, Li Qing's figure slowly emerged in the flames, looking at the figure standing up slowly on the opposite side, the expression on his face, like a dark cloud piling up, gradually became solemn.
