Chapter 121: Fierce Battle
The Night King stared at the strange man in front of him, his white clothes had already been soaked in blood, a terrifying pool of blood had formed under his feet, and his skin had countless tiny scars, but he still stared intently at the temple in the distance.
Obviously, the soul separated from himself has been cut off, but he still habitually bows his head and looks at the palm of his hand, as if he can still sense the situation on the other side.
A body whose spiritual power had been completely transferred, almost no different from an ordinary person, did not make a single sound of pain under such a serious injury, and its attention did not shift to itself for a moment.
The Night King finally let out a sigh from his bottom of his heart and persuaded, "It's time like this, let's take care of myself first." β
Xiao Yibai turned his gaze to the spirit body in front of him for the first time, his hand hidden in his sleeve, pinching the star pendant hidden in Cen Ge, and barely covering it with the last bit of spiritual power left in his body from the Night King.
"I said you, take care of yourself first. The Night King repeated again, pointing to the Temple, "That man is so important that you are still protecting him at the cost of your life?"
"What do I have to care about?" Xiao Yibai smiled casually, "You won't kill me anyway, so I'm not worried at all." β
"Heh, you two really don't have anything I can do. The Night King's eyes froze, amused by his remarks, and shook his head, "In terms of personality alone, you have to be more like him, your brother, but more like the kind of beast that eats people." β
"He, are you talking about the god of war in the Heavenly Realm?" Xiao Yibai asked curiously, and suddenly complained like nagging, "I haven't seen him once, I haven't seen that poor Qi, and I don't have any memories of them, why do you say this?"
"......" The Night King was momentarily speechless by his question, and he actually thought about it.
Xiao Yibai tilted his head and showed a clear smile: "It turns out that there are things that the Heavenly Realm doesn't know, and this is the biggest difference between me and him, because without that memory, I don't remember who you are, and I don't have any sense of familiarity with you." β
"That's a pity, I was able to catch up with you during this time. The Night King calmly followed his words, thousands of years of memories flashing back and forth in his mind.
"Is your relationship very good?" Xiao Yibai asked quietly, the Night King snorted coldly and looked him in the eyes, "It's not very good, but at least I'm never worried that he will stab him in the back, but your brother can't, he's like a fierce beast, if I don't guard against him, I will definitely be planted in his hands." β
"My brother...... Will it become him too?" Xiao Yibai lowered his eyes, smiled bitterly, and clenched his hands into a fist inexplicably, "You must want him to become another person, right?" β
The Night King was puzzled for a while, and he couldn't answer, Emperor Zhong was the foundation of the Heavenly Realm's might, and if he wasn't there, the Heavenly Realm would undoubtedly usher in a new round of disasters.
The Night King's face did not change, and he felt that the other party's emotions finally began to fluctuate, and his mind was no longer completely thinking about the crown prince in the temple.
"What's his name?" Xiao Yibai secretly observed the Night King's expression, and found that this person was really as calm as he expected, he didn't know what he was planning, and still asked in a sincere voice without hostility, "You are fellow practitioners, right? at least tell me his name, how about it?"
"You should know...... the Night King blurted out, his eyes suddenly sank, his face was solemn, and then he changed his words, "You, you mean his real name?"
"Di Zhong isn't his real name, right?" Xiao Yibai smiled, and secretly pinched his sweat - a name is a very important thing, it can awaken people's hearts and souls, the most important thing! Without it, even if he regains Gu Chen, his younger brother will never be able to really recover those lost memories.
Xiao Yibai's heart was trembling, and he endured the discomfort, but he still tried his best to keep his emotions from the Night King from seeing the clues, without the power of the God of War, his younger brother would be bound by the Heavenly Realm for the rest of his life, and that was the only thing that could set him free.
However, it may also be something that will make him a different person, either to replace the God of War Emperor Zhong, or to be replaced by him.
Although the risk is huge, it must still be tried, otherwise no one, no one, no one can fight against the Heavenly Realm!
Maybe I will eventually lose this only loved one.
The Night King's eyes looked into the distance, and he didn't notice the violent fluctuations in the hearts of the people in front of him, and his eyes were treacherous, as if thousands of years had passed in an instant, and he sighed: "Is it my real name? It's really a name that I haven't called for a long, long time, so long that I have thought about it for a while...... He has a single name 'Ember', and there is only this one word. β
"Ember ......" Xiao Yibai blurted out suddenly, raised his hand to press his forehead, and a strange feeling poured into his heart for the first time, this was the first time he felt the breath from the god of war since he learned the family secret.
"Do you remember?" the Night King looked at him thoughtfully, Xiao Yibai's brows tightened, and it took a long while before he suddenly relaxed, and the light in his eyes rippled like flowing water, "Thank you, my lord, I finally have a little feeling for him." β
He secretly put the pendant in his sleeve on the ground, attached the butterfly that had been hidden in it, and then supported his bleeding body to stand up and exhaled softly: "In return, I will do what you wish." β
"Oh, that's nice, it's not up to you, but it's better if you're willing. The Night King stretched out his spirit hand, and the power of the night was like a shackle, clasping his wrist.
At this moment, Feng Jiuqing's light turned to the ground, and the afterglow swept over Xiao Yibai, and reported in a low voice: "My lord, Xiao Qianye has escaped from the Ten Palaces Hades Array, and his subordinates are incompetent and cannot take Feng Ji away from him." β
"...... so quickly" The Night King was slightly surprised, although the Ten Halls of Hell Formation was forcibly reversed and counterattacked to the Heavenly Realm by the Heavenly Power Emperor with the technique of Wind and Water Rebellion, but Xiao Qianye, who had the power of the God of War, would undoubtedly be attacked more seriously, right, he escaped so quickly?
Sure enough, did you still underestimate that power too much?
Feng Jiuqing lowered his head and reminded with a straight face: "My lord, King Chen has already left, it is better for you to leave as soon as possible, after all, the Ten Halls of Hell King Array will continue to interfere with you, there is no need to waste spiritual power here." β
"That guy from Pengshan...... Sure enough, it's not credible at all. The Night King's eyebrows frowned slightly, and before he could say anything, the sword qi of the Empty Sword was already close at hand!
"My lord!" Feng Jiuqing desperately blocked in front of the Night King, the sword qi directly pierced his body, he took a few big steps back, his special physique flickered a few times like a flame, and his face turned pale all of a sudden, but soon returned to normal.
With the next blow, the Night King stood still, the spirit body suddenly waved its sleeves, and after the fierce wind and sword qi collided, the surrounding ground was also shattered!
Xiao Qianye did not retreat but advanced, changed the sword spirit to his left hand, and the Likong sword once again relied on the sword light to stretch to a length similar to Gu Chen, and then attacked, the strength was completely different, the Night King's spirit body dispersed in an instant, and the fierce wind under the palm between the transformation and shadow change continued.
With such astonishing speed and strength, people couldn't see the movements of the two of them clearly, and could only see the dust flying, and the ruins of buildings shattered by sword light and fierce wind were flying all over the sky.
Feng Jiuqing secretly retreated a little farther, and quietly moved to Xiao Yibai's side when the Night King's clone lacked skills.
"You ......" Xiao Yibai was startled, and then lowered his voice, Feng Jiuqing didn't dare to say anything, but the breath of the spirit phoenix at his fingertips quietly drilled into his body.
Suddenly, the spiritual power cut off by the Night King began to recover like a stream, Feng Jiuqing just walked away quickly and quietly, Xiao Yibai secretly clenched his fists, this person actually took the initiative to help him restore the connection with the soul?
But after feeling the situation of the soul, his face quickly became more ugly, revealing a look of horror, and he involuntarily took his eyes off the two inseparable people in front of him, and looked at the temple in the distance again.
Mingxi was trapped in the Wanluo Hall below, besieged by Gao Chengchuan and the Star Saint Maiden, even if Gongsun Yan desperately protected him, he couldn't resist the forbidden soldiers who were still in the city and had become medicine people!
I have to rush over as soon as possible, butγIt's the younger brother in front of me!
Xiao Yibai was sweating profusely, even if he could already turn his spiritual power back, but Mingxi's situation did not allow him to do so, and he could only let one soul and one spirit continue to maintain all his spiritual power, so as to barely protect his safety.
Feng Jiuqing is also secretly wrinkled - what is this guy doing, obviously he has lifted the barrier for him, why is he still indifferent to this ordinary person's state?
The Night King was still constantly transforming, and then condensed again, but the body of the spiritual power seemed to be about to keep up with the speed of the Likong Sword, he jumped up, and a wonderful water light appeared under his palm, Xiao Qianye was vigilant and paused, and the next moment, the sound of the sea fell from the Night King's palm into the state of a long sword, he jumped directly from the sky, and the sea water attacked from the whole body at the same time, forcing the Likong Sword to finally put away the cold offensive and was forced to cross the defense.
Xiao Qianye's gold and silver eyes suddenly burst into bright light, and after forcibly withdrawing from the countless water spikes, he also stood in mid-air with a big jump!
The Night King's pupils shrank, and he hesitated for a few seconds in shockβthe martial arts of the Heavenly Realm! He had suddenly instinctively mastered the martial arts of the Heavenly Realm!
The situation in front of him was changing rapidly, the ghost hand in the sky was attracted by the special spiritual power of the heavenly realm to gather again, the sword qi and the water spike pierced the ghost hand at the same time, and the wind also swept like a sharp knife, for a while, the three parties in the sky above the imperial city were scuffled, and the water spike turned into a huge water column and smashed directly into the city.
"Voice of the Sea......" Xiao Qianye suddenly stopped, the three holy swords were originally spirit beast transformations, would this sword suddenly regain the form of a sea demon cangyu like the blazing phoenix?
At the moment when he was distracted, the spirit of the Night King had already appeared in front of him, and the divine power of the night enveloped his whole body like ink, Xiao Qianye instantly came back to his senses, and his forehead was also shocked by a cold sweat of beans at the same time, almost instinctively raising his sword, and forcibly took the sound of the sea that fell from the sky!
"Ding", the sword spirit made a crisp sound, and a crack appeared in the sword body!
Xiao Qianye gasped and landed from a high altitude, his eyes finally trembling uncontrollably-cracked, even the sword spirit of Kunlun Mountain was only a human thing after all, and he couldn't withstand the attack from the Heavenly Realm!
"Oh?" the Night King sneered, taking advantage of the victory and chasing, not wanting to give him any respite, the sound of the sea rolled up the waves again, smashing down like a sharp wall of knives.
The eyes of the gold and silver were not afraid, and even the ice and fire spell patterns under his eyelids began to burn, and he concentrated the strength of his whole body on his left hand and swung it head-on!
With the power of the god of war, the sword split the waves in half, and the waves exploded in the air like a storm.
Through the drops of water, the Night King looked at him quietly, with an awe-inspiring expression.
He didn't burst out with the power of a fierce beast again, and he didn't even have the characteristics of a fierce beast, just with that little bit of awakened Emperor Zhong's power, he could fight with himself to such a point!
"I really don't want to be half-human, half-beast, in fact, even I hate it. Xiao Qianye said lightly, seeing through the Night King's thoughts at a glance, looking directly at the person in the air, and suddenly reached out and pressed his right shoulder, "Biluohai battle, you have forcibly sealed the power of the fierce beast in my body, I should thank you, I can't be called a human being when I become like that, but, but, if I can't even protect my brother as a human being, then I'd rather be a monster." "101 Chinese Net
"Thousand Nights......" Xiao Yibai whispered, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, his younger brother's body was undergoing amazing changes, becoming the same as the night he lost control eight years ago, or even more than that!
The bone wings stretched out from the left half of the body, the black gold horns drilled out from the forehead, Xiao Qianye gently brushed the sword body, and whispered softly: "I'm sorry, please...... Hold on a little longer. β
This time, it was the turn of the Night King, who was caught off guard, was forced to take the slash of the Empty Sword, and the power of that sword was like a landslide cracking the ground, not only causing the sound of the sea to directly turn into water droplets, but even directly penetrating the Night King's spirit body, making him unable to condense for a while!
"Ding", another same soft sound, along the crack of Fangcai, another intersecting crack appeared again.
Xiao Qianye silently exerted his strength, not daring to look down at the sword in his hand, but he felt the sword spirit screaming in his palm - this is the sword spirit given by his father after he entered the master's door, which is diametrically opposed to his capable black military uniform, and Likong is a pure white sword spirit, every day since then, he treats this sword spirit like life, and the sword spirit also gives him the most silent protection.
It wasn't until a moment ago that it finally cracked in its own hand.
The Night King landed beside Xiao Yibai, and the ghost hand roared again, tearing at the badly damaged spirit, but the Night King was still recovering little by little, and seemed to have no feeling for that kind of tearing.
Feng Jiuqing had already pinched out a cold sweat - although the Night King was a spirit body, his recovery speed was much faster than Xiao Qianye's, and whether it was the power of the god of war or the body of a fierce beast, he should not be able to last long under such intense consumption.
Sure enough, his guess quickly came true, and at the same time that Xiao Qianye fell back to the ground, the bone wings and horns detached from his body and peeled off, and the gold and silver pupils were also extinguished in an instant.
"Let him go, I'll go with you. Xiao Qianye took a breath, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the blood from the corner of his mouth began to surge out uncontrollably.
The Night King chuckled, he was a human body after all, and the Drain Sword was a human weapon after all.
"You're going to trade yourself for him?" the Night King didn't take it, shaking his head, "That's not going to work, you're a lot tougher than he is." β
Xiao Qianye looked directly at the Night King, word by word, like a reminder, more like a warning: "Xi Hui, if he dies, I will let the entire Heavenly Realm be buried with him." β
This sentence had an inexplicable deterrent effect, which made the Night King hesitate for a moment.
He followed up and added, and his tone was even more serious: "What you want is nothing more than that ancient seed, I can take you in to find him, provided that my eldest brother is released." β
"It's okay, but ......" The Night King turned his head away and looked at Xiao Yibai, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "I once reminded you that the inability of spiritual power to turn for a long time will cause irreversible damage to the body. β
He suddenly turned his head and walked towards Xiao Yibai, Feng Jiuqing was shocked into a cold sweat, seeing that the breath of the spirit phoenix on Xiao Yibai's body was about to be noticed by the Night King, only to see another special spiritual power burst out of his sleeve, quietly eliminating the breath of the spirit phoenix.
The Night King raised his hand and pointed it on Xiao Yibai's chest, and his fingertips swung out inky spells, carving an inverted pentagram on his body.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Qianye couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, and the Night King laughed silently, "The night spell is just a small spell, which can keep him in such a state for a long time, and his spiritual power will continue to be unable to turn, but he will not be hurt by this, but if the military pavilion master wants to deceive me, then when this spell is broken, these irreversible injuries will return to Brother Ling's body a hundred times, please think about it carefully." β
"Hmph, I promised you, I won't break my promise, you don't have to be so careful. Xiao Qianye replied disdainfully, and the corner of his eyes suddenly swept over Feng Jiuqing.
Feng Jiuqing comprehended, but he was also secretly amazed at this person's actions.
He obviously accepted his own proposal, but he refused to let his brother take risks, but chose to use himself as bait to start a plan to kill gods!
Feng Jiuqing immediately glanced at Xiao Yibai silently, what is the matter with this guy, obviously he unlocked the Night King's imprisonment for him, but he was absent-mindedly and completely unwilling to turn back his spiritual power, which gave the Night King the opportunity to seal again, and this time with the "Night Curse", even the breath of the Spirit Phoenix could not be lifted again!
There was another inexplicable spiritual power in his sleeve, and it seemed a little familiar.
"When I save someone, I'll go to you myself. Xiao Qianye coldly dropped a sentence and finally looked at the temple in the distance.
"Oh, why bother, when they find the Eye, they will all die. β
"There is not only one island in the sea. Xiao Qianye casually made excuses and replied calmly.
"Don't die at the hands of those humans. The Night King didn't stop him, turned to Feng Jiuqing, and said meaningfully, "Jiuqing, are you going back with me, or will you continue to catch up with your daughters?"
Feng Jiuqing looked at the blazing phoenix that was finally belated, closed her eyes and smiled bitterly: "That's nothing to talk about, I still want to borrow the Sea of Dusk to heal my wounds." β
He pressed his chest, which was the first injury that was crossed by the sword qi of the Empty Sword, and even the Spirit Phoenix Clan could not heal quickly.
The Night King stopped talking, and in an instant, he disappeared into Amano.
Xiao Qianye stepped forward, looked at the blood-stained eldest brother, and didn't dare to support him easily.
"I'm fine, Chiya...... Sorry. Xiao Yibai clenched his teeth and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything after all.
Feng Jiuqing had already untied him, he could obviously turn his spiritual power back to help his younger brother, but he didn't dare or could do this, once he did this, Mingxi, who was besieged by layers of Wanluo Palace, would be in danger of his life!
Because of himself, he was even threatened by the Night King!
"It's nothing to do with you, don't think nonsense, go and save people. Xiao Qianye knew what he was thinking at a glance, and he didn't have time to explain, Xiao Yibai looked at his younger brother with some distraction, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and coughed up blood again!
The soul body of Wanluo Temple...... I guess it's almost overwhelmed......
"You're waiting for me right here. Xiao Qianye directly pressed down on his brother who was struggling and wanted to stand up, and scolded angrily, "I will definitely bring him to you safely." β
"A thousand nights. Yun Xiao, who finally arrived from the blazing phoenix, anxiously followed him, Xiao Qianye's eyes lit up, looking at the two people on the phoenix's wings, and he opened his mouth slightly and couldn't speak.
Feng Ji has disappeared, and the person on the back of the bird turned out to be the lord of Muxi Showa and Haoyue?
While she was trying to catch up with Xiao Qianye in Xingluo Lake, she found a frightened girl hiding in the ruins by the lake, plus a blind and deaf Mu Xizhao, so she was forced to delay the time helplessly, but now, Yun Xiao held his hand with a firm look in her eyes: "Let me accompany you." β
The Blazing Phoenix turned into a Flowing Fire Sword and landed in her palm.
"Good. There was no time to ask about the complicated reason, Xiao Qianye jumped on the sword spirit without thinking, and then reached out and pulled her up.
The damaged sword spirit had already swayed significantly, and it was still barely stable.
"Hazy Moon. Xiao Qianye suddenly called her, this is the only person who can be considered normal among the three people at the moment, he sighed slightly, and solemnly advised, "Bother the county lord, take care of my eldest brother, and Mu Xizhao." β
The third county lord was shocked and frightened, she experienced a horror that she had never encountered in her life in a few hours, after being thrown out of the water prison by a black mist, she was attacked by the remnants of the resentful spirits near Xingluo Lake, just when she thought she was really going to die, suddenly there was a pure and pure spiritual power to purify the resentful spirits in the lake, she saw this strange woman in those white, starlight-like soul fragments, she was half-kneeling in the water, as noble as a goddess.
It wasn't until this moment that she suddenly discovered that this strange woman seemed to be an old acquaintance with Xiao Qianye.
"Good, good. Lord Haoyue nodded vigorously, straightening his back, as if he had grown up in an instant, "Don't worry, I will take care of them." β
Xiao Yibai smiled silently and bitterly, his body was seriously injured, and his soul body was about to collapse, at this time, did he have to rely on a crazy girl who went to Tianzheng Mansion every day to take care of her?
Cen Ge ......" He finally turned over and took out the star pendant, and the people inside were calm and seemed to be very angry, "Now that you think of me, continue to press and don't let me come out!"
"I didn't let you come out to save you......" Xiao Yibai thought about it in pieces, and said seriously, "If you just show up, you will end up like me, don't forget that you yourself are also a soul and a soul separated from the Dafa of Soul Division, I can't let you become the same as me, you have to save Mingxi instead of me." β
"Hmph. Cen Ge walked out of the pendant, Xiao Yibai pointed in the direction of the temple, "The soldiers of the forbidden army should be controlled by Gu ants again, go and help them." β
Cen Ge knew that he was in a hurry, so he didn't talk nonsense and chased Xiao Qianye directly.
The Lord of Haoyue covered his mouth in surprise, this person is translucent, can fly, or comes out of a small pendant!
"Lord Hazy Moon. Xiao Yibai looked at this little girl who also gave him a headache, and smiled gently, "I'm tired of the county lord taking care of it, I'm ...... It's really not good. β
"You, you, don't move!" "The county lord of Haoyue panicked for a moment, and said hesitantly, "I, I...... By the way, I'll go to the doctor, I'll go to the Danzhen Palace to find a doctor for you, you must not move, and you, you too, wait for me, wait for me obediently!"
Xiao Yibai nodded, leaned his head on the ruins, and glanced at Mu Xizhao, who had been silent.
What's going on...... Why did my brother suddenly bring this person with him?
