Chapter 23: A Glimmer of Life

The situation in the small secret realm was even worse than Chu He imagined.

The aura is mixed, the sky is dark, and it is full of wandering ghost soldiers, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a dead situation.

"If we want to get out, the stone pillar of Tongtian is probably the only way out, but the closer we get to the stone pillar, the stronger and more numerous the ghost soldiers will be. Xu Wanqing looked into the distance, sighed helplessly, and said, "These ghost soldiers were originally all in the stone pillar, and they came out to hunt us down." ”

Chu He thoughtfully: "We?"

"About a few hours ago, an aura wave appeared on the other side, but it quickly disappeared. Xu Wanqing nodded lightly, and then said with a wry smile, "That person ran too fast, I can't catch up." ”

Chu He's face was slightly gloomy, and while thinking, he told him what he had learned from the outside. Xu Wanqing didn't feel anything earlier, but after listening to Chu He's words, she immediately reacted.

"The murderous tomb itself is pitifully small, but there are more than a dozen ghost soldiers stationed in the only secret room, it is impossible to form naturally, someone must be playing ghosts!" Xu Wanqing said categorically.

"Yang Feng will report the matter of the murderous tomb, and most of them have no problems, but the other three people ...... are all suspicious. Chu He's eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly spoke, "There is another person you mentioned, he should not be in the same group as here, but the enemy of the enemy may not be a friend." ”

Xu Wanqing was stunned, as if she was seeing Chu He for the first time, and stared at him with a strange expression.

"What's wrong?" Chu He's heart tightened slightly, knowing that he had forgotten to disguise himself at a critical moment, but he could only pretend that nothing happened, and even raised his head to look at him.

"Nothing. Xu Wanqing shook her head, and only said after a while, "You have really changed a little." ”

"People always have to change. Chu He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed secretly in his heart, if the other party directly doubted it, he might really show his flaws, but this kind of temptation was what he was best at.

Xu Wanqing was silent for a long time, and finally asked, "Then what should we do now?"

Her words are quite sincere, and Chu He's analysis of a few words before has made her see a lot of things, so at this critical juncture, she chose to believe the other party's judgment.

Chu He's face was still solemn, obviously still thinking about countermeasures, but there was no pause in his mouth: "Since these ghost soldiers are chased out from the center, it means that there is a consciousness commanding them, and he may even be able to see the position of you and me." ”

Xu Wanqing was slightly stunned, and suddenly realized: "No wonder every time I stay in a certain place for a long time, there will be ghost soldiers surrounding me......"

It's no wonder that Xu Wanqing didn't think of this before, and her preconceived impression made her subconsciously think that these ghost soldiers were just acting instinctively, and encircling herself was just an instinctive exploration of living beings by ghosts.

"Senior Brother Zhuang will definitely come in the shortest possible time when he receives my spirit rune, and the time will not exceed a day, but...... The day wasn't so easy to get through. Chu He looked at the increasingly thick ghost aura in the distance, and sighed.

For a long time after that, Xu Wanqing disagreed with Chu He's judgment that "this day is not good", because she only relied on herself and successfully lived here for a day.

It wasn't until a few hours later that a mutation occurred that she really understood what Chu He meant.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"This ...... What's going on?" Xu Wanqing's eyes widened, looking at the countless ghost soldiers that appeared in front of her, and said with difficulty.

"The ghost soldiers are coming back. Chu He's tone was heavy, "Since they came out of the dark pillar of the sky, at this time, when it comes to the most critical moment, they will naturally all be withdrawn and concentrate on the strength." ”

"The most critical moment?"

"According to you, the other person only appeared once, and the battle ended almost instantly, indicating that his cultivation is far above you and me. The ghost soldier here is the strongest but in the late stage of qi refining, why doesn't he rush out of the qi refining directly?" Chu He paused, and then asked himself, "It can only be what he is waiting for, maybe it is the secret of the formation of this black pillar." ”

Listening to Chu He's bland words, Xu Wanqing faintly felt frightened. This is not only because of the difficult situation of the two of them at the moment, but also because Chu He can see so many things at a glance.

"Follow me. Just when Xu Wanqing was silent, Chu He couldn't help but take her little hand and said quickly, "The ghost soldiers are back, and if they come out against the current, they will definitely die, and the only chance of life is in the central stone pillar." ”

The girl was stunned, and was rushed out of the city by Chu He, her face was slightly unnatural. She naturally understands that if the two want to survive at this time, they must work together, and the cooperation must first ensure that the two are not scattered by the oncoming ghost soldiers.

Chu He's eyes were solemn and profound, and he couldn't see the slightest other meaning, Xu Wanqing stared at him silently for a while, didn't break free, and let him move forward with him.

There's no way around it. Naturally, this rush can no longer use the light of escape, so I am afraid that before I reach the stone pillar of Tongtian, my true qi will be exhausted. Compared to using a flying sword, Xu Wanqing's speed is naturally far inferior to Chu He, who let the latter's flying sword have a sword soul?

This is a flying sword at the level of Sword Spirit Incarnation...... Even Chu He himself didn't expect that the Flying Sword Sword Soul, which had been abandoned by him, would come in handy at this time. With the blessing of the sword soul, although the speed of the flying sword is still not as good as that of Dunguang, it is not too far behind, at least Xu Wanqing's eyes are about to pop out.

"Why is your flying sword so fast?"

"Well...... Talented. ”

"Your talent is to make the flying sword escape?"

"Don't talk nonsense, don't convince you. ”

Xu Wanqing stopped talking......

Facts have proved that Chu He's judgment is quite correct. Although the ghost soldiers in the rear couldn't catch up, as long as she turned around, Xu Wanqing could still see the ghosts coming from all over the world.

It's just that in this direction, there are thousands of ghost soldiers gathered!

Following the pace of the ghost soldiers, the two of them also had a sense of difficulty, but they still relied on tacit cooperation to not delay much, if they moved against the tide, I am afraid that they would be wiped out in this endless sea of ghosts in an instant.

"Chu He, this won't work. As the two of them went deeper and deeper, the closer they got to the central stone pillar, the greater the resistance they encountered, Xu Wanqing barely blocked the battle axe of the three-headed ghost soldier, and said, "There are too many enemies, although your flying sword speed is fast, it is not enough to bring me." ”

Chu He's flying sword speed was extremely fast, and he was not even under the light when he flew alone, but now he was carrying Xu Wanqing, and the ghost soldiers were becoming more and more dense, and it was becoming more and more difficult to break through strongly.

Chu He gritted his teeth, looked at the stone pillar that was not far away, and said in a condensed voice: "I'll rush over before you." ”

Xu Wanqing nodded, this was originally her idea. It was close enough to the stone pillar of Tongtian, and the light was enough for them to hold on to the center of the small secret realm, whether it was life or death, in one fell swoop!

"Rush!"

Chu He snorted lightly, and rushed out of the palace first, and the Chuyang Sword rolled out upside down, attacking a ghost soldier in the middle stage of qi refining in front of him. The tyrannical spiritual power burst out in an instant, not only was the ghost soldier in front of him shocked to take a few steps back, but even the surrounding group of ghost creatures were also shaken apart.

The early sun sword technique not only has the sharpness of the sword technique, but also the domineering power of the great sun that will rise and suppress all things!

The flying sword had already been put away by Chu He, Xu Wanqing had already prepared, staggered a few steps, and then fixed her figure and followed closely behind Chu He. The flight of their cultivated Edgeworth is actually a low-altitude skimming, no more than two meters above the ground, otherwise these are only ghost soldiers who are a few meters tall but can't fly, and they won't be able to attack them.

After getting off the flying sword, Xu Wanqing finally had a reason to break free from Chu He's hand, which also meant that her jade bracelet had a place to use.

"Ding!"

The jade bracelet did not break away from Xu Wanqing's wrist, but it suddenly let out a crisp chirp, and the endless brilliance appeared again, and an incomparably holy aura swept out, shaking the ghosts and creatures to the point that they couldn't move.

Chu He and the two of them urged the light with all their might, one after the other, like the colorful glow on the horizon, and instantly drew a trajectory above the sky.

"It's here!" But in a breath, the two of them rushed directly to the dark pillar not far away. Although there were still a large number of ghosts in front of her, Xu Wanqing couldn't help but speak excitedly.

However, Chu He was not as happy as she imagined, but his face was a little gloomy: "Mistake, it's too early......"

Xu Wanqing was slightly stunned, and then reacted to what Chu He meant. They were in such a hurry, in addition to the reason why the ghosts in the rear kept pressing, they were even more afraid that they would not be able to catch up with the mysterious man to break the game.

It stands to reason that the mysterious man's cultivation is far above the two of them, so he should have arrived a long time ago...... Could it be that the fight has already been completed? It seems that it can't be said, obviously there is not the slightest aura fluctuation coming out.

Xu Wanqing looked at the dense group of ghosts in front of her, and her smile gradually turned to bitterness.

There is a strong enemy in front and a chasing army behind; the heavens should not be, and the earth is not spiritual, what can be done about it?

But Xu Wanqing has always been a resolute and resolute person, and she never sat still in the Phantom Forest, and this time was no exception. Slowly raising the long sword in her hand, the girl's face gradually calmed down, and she said softly: "My monk, how can you tie all your life to the hands of outsiders? ”

Chu He suddenly felt a pain, he hated this kind of crepe talk the most, and replied angrily: "If you want to die, you will die, I will run for my life." ”

After speaking, he rushed forward without hesitation, and a sword slashed out, and the monstrous red light reappeared in the small secret realm.

Xu Wanqing watched Chu He's movements in a daze, and saw him rush into the array of countless ghost soldiers, and then she giggled, without the slightest gesture of a cold beauty, and said loudly: "Together!"

Following Chu Heqing's passage, the faint blue light swept by, and instantly caught up with his figure. At this time, Xu Wanqing finally understood that Chu He's escape was not a lie.

At the bottom of the stone pillar of the sky, there was a pitch-black hole, and it was still shrinking, if it wasn't for careful observation, I am afraid that this secret would not have been discovered at all.

Whether she can live inside the stone pillar, Xu Wanqing doesn't know whether she can live, but she knows one thing, that is, she will definitely die outside!
