Chapter Seventy-Six: Trapped
At the end of the sky in the distance, a torrent of black rolled silently, the kind of black was different from the black of the night, it was an extremely pure black, without a single light, as if the light could be swallowed.
Roars, shouts, explosions...... It came out of it and reverberated in this world.
Everyone looked at the black torrent with fear on their faces.
The geniuses who came to the ancient battlefield, as long as they were a little more advanced city, all heard their elders talk about the most terrifying things in the ancient battlefield.
Not other geniuses,
It's not a beast of the mountains,
It's something called the Tide of Darkness.
The Tide of Darkness, a specialty of the ancient battlefield, is formed by the unwilling death qi of all the creatures who died in that ancient war, cold and evil, but the power in the body of all the beings who are contaminated with the yin energy of the tide of darkness will gradually dry up.
And the most terrifying thing in the Tide of Darkness is not the Yin Qi, but the special creature in the Tide of Darkness: the Nether Corpse.
Nether corpses are transformed by the life that died in the ancient battlefield, and their strength is high and low, because they are creatures that live in the tide of darkness, as long as they are in the tide of darkness, they will be nourished by yin qi all the time, and their strength is strong.
And as long as he was injured by the Nether Corpse, then the death sentence of the warrior was almost pronounced. That's the scariest part.
The gathering place provided them with a way to resist the tide of darkness, and the gathering place had the formations set up by the nine super sects, and it was the only pure land when the tide of darkness appeared.
This is also the reason why they all gathered in the gathering place, because at night on the ancient battlefield, the purple moon rose, and the tide of darkness emerged, which was the most terrifying moment of the ancient battlefield.
"Tides of Darkness...... It's really coming. ”
Some people on the city wall had already begun to tremble, after all, in the face of the most terrifying thing in this ancient battlefield, their weak strength really couldn't make them raise any confidence.
In a short period of time, the dark torrent that was originally at the end of heaven and earth was less than a thousand feet away from the city wall.
"Let everyone come to the walls to defend against the tide of darkness, and call out the two retreating fellows as well. Situ Yuelou frowned and said,
"By the way, open the gates and let that guy in. ”
Situ Yuelou thought for a while and said.
Liu Ling also saw the dark torrent that was approaching, less than five hundred zhang away.
The deep frown showed that his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface, and he had also heard of this tide of darkness, if he really fell into this dark torrent, I am afraid that he would really die.
If the city gate is not opened for him, he can't help it.
"Open the door? no, no. ”
Zhou Ning shook his head when he heard Situ Yuelou's words, with the speed of the tide of darkness, I am afraid that it will not take three breaths to reach the city, and opening the city gate now is equivalent to destroying the formation of the gathering place, once the tide of darkness pours into the city, I am afraid that they will all be wiped out.
What's more, the city is still a person from Xuanyan City, and he won't open it.
"Fight. ”
Situ Yuelou also understood that it was not very realistic, and immediately gave up this idea, after all, Liu Ling had nothing to do with him, he would die if he died, and there were not a few geniuses who died on the ancient battlefield.
There was a steady stream of people pouring up from the city wall, and everyone drew their weapons and waited for them with a solemn face.
"This is only a first-level dark tide, you don't need to panic, with our strength, we can completely resist it. ”
At this time, another voice was heard.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw a man with long dark blue hair walking up.
"Tian Lonely. Situ Yuelou shouted.
The man named Tian Lin nodded, and responded to Situ Yuelou.
"It's coming. ”
Xu Mo also walked up at this time.
At this time, the three giants of this small gathering place had all arrived, and the others saw the three of them, and their faces were a lot calmer, after all, the three of them were the most powerful people in this gathering place.
Rumble.
With a loud bang, the tide of darkness finally collided with the city walls. And Liu Ling's figure was also drowned in the black torrent.
Situ Yuelou glanced at the city wall and sighed softly.
Surely they will die if they fall into the tide of darkness, as their elders told them.
This not-so-majestic city wall burst out with a sky-high aura the moment it collided with the tide of darkness, and it was obviously the formation on the wall that played a role, firmly blocking the tide of darkness from the city wall.
But there was no lightness on everyone's faces, because the real horror was yet to come.
Shout.
A rusty spear shot out from the tide of darkness, except for the tide of darkness, it seemed that other things were not blocked by the formation on the city wall, and the spear shot directly through the heart of a martial artist in the early stage of the spirit sea.
All the people on the city wall changed their faces.
The warrior's corpse fell under the city walls, and a figure suddenly jumped out of the tide of darkness and devoured the corpse.
And in the next moment, hundreds of strange creatures, exuding a thick dead aura, jumped out of the tide of darkness and climbed towards the city wall.
"Listen, everyone, and do everything in your power to stop the Nether Corpse from entering the city. Situ Yuelou yelled, taking the lead in attacking the Nether Corpse.
"Kill. ”
In an instant, everyone on the city wall burst out with the magic skills they had learned and attacked towards the Nether Corpse. All kinds of lights shone brightly, and it was quite spectacular for a while.
The tide of darkness is coming, it is not only a danger for them, but also an opportunity, the Nether Crystal in the Nether Body contains pure energy, which is much stronger than the spirit stones in normal times. However, the Netherworld Crystal is only in the second level, that is, it is equivalent to the Netherworld corpse of the Linghai Realm martial artist.
If they absorb the Nether Crystal, it will be of great benefit to their cultivation.
At this time, Liu Ling, who was deep in the tide of darkness, was held by him early in the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd. The red light flickered, and the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd in Liu Ling's hand sliced through the Netherworld corpse that pounced on him like cutting tofu.
"Thirty-second. ”
Liu Ling gently spit out a number in his mouth, this is already the thirty-second Nether Corpse he has killed in such a short period of time when he fell into the tide of darkness, fortunately, they are all some first-level Nether Corpses, if these Nether Corpses are replaced by second-level ones, he will not be so easy.
Liu Ling, who was in the tide of darkness, could feel the yin qi in the tide of darkness invading his body all the time.
It's just that any yin qi that pours into his body will be burned out by the Nine Heavens Separation Fire as soon as possible, and Liu Ling doesn't have to worry about the problem of yin qi.
But this is not a way, even if his spiritual sea is much larger than that of ordinary martial artists, and his spiritual energy is full, but he can't withstand such a consumption The tide of darkness will not recede until daytime, Liu Ling doesn't think that he can hold on until daylight under the condition of using Nine Heavens from Fire all the time.
"If you can't do it, you can only use the wings of water and fire to escape," Liu Ling smiled bitterly, being able to fly was his hole card, and he really didn't want to be exposed until he had to.
"Da-da-da-da. ”
Just as Liu Ling was killing a ghost corpse, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly appeared in his ears.
"Is there a powerful Nether Corpse coming?" Liu Ling's gaze froze, and the Nine Heavens Separation Fire filled his pupils, and the darkness in front of him disappeared in an instant. Liu Ling saw everything in front of him clearly.
A headless knight rode a bony horse slowly through the darkness.
The armor on his body has become tattered after such a long time, and the simple spear in his hand still has a not weak fluctuation emanating from it, obviously a treasure weapon of no low level.
The fluctuations emanating from this headless horseman's body were not weaker than the previous Situ Yuelou. Apparently a powerful Nether Corpse.
Sigh.
Suddenly, the bone horse neighed, and then Liu Ling saw the Headless Horseman rushing towards him.
A spear stabbed at him.
Liu Ling snorted coldly, and the Great Desolate Blood Halberd in his hand was violently sent forward.
Bite.
The moment the tip of the spear came into contact with the tip of the halberd, a strong burst of energy erupted.
A huge force surged towards Liu Ling's arm.
Liu Ling's body also retreated violently under this huge force, and it took more than ten meters backwards in a row to unload all the strength, and the headless horseman did not move at all.
"That's a lot of power. ”
Liu Ling raised his eyebrows, this Netherworld Corpse actually has such a great power, because he has cultivated the Five Elements Immortal Body, this aspect of strength has always been his advantage, I didn't expect it to be so far away from this Netherworld Corpse. Although he hadn't activated the Five Elements Immortal Body yet.
"Come again. ”
Liu Ling rushed out violently, and two rays of light flowed through his body, which were the colors of the Nine Heavens Separation Fire and Netherworld Water, and the Five Elements Immortal Body had been activated by him.
The Great Desolate Blood Halberd in Liu Ling's hand stabbed out towards the Headless Horseman's lightning again, and the tip of the halberd flashed with blood-red light, as if it was about to pierce the air.
Any Spirit Sea martial artist would have a change of face in the face of this halberd, but the Headless Horseman was not a martial artist, and the spear in his hand also met the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd.
In close combat, Liu Ling, who was activated by the Five Elements Immortal Body, was obviously much stronger than just now, and the moment he made contact, he forcibly withstood the huge force, but the hand holding the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd was released, and he punched towards the Headless Horseman.
Bang.
The headless horseman's battle consciousness was obviously not as high as Liu Ling's, and he was caught off guard, and under Liu Ling's punch, his body retreated.
With one hand in the void, the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd returned to his hand, and Liu Ling rushed away again.
The headless horseman's spear came towards him, and Liu Ling did not panic at all.
Looking at the sweeping spear, a faint smile formed into the corner of his mouth.
"Light Hongbu. ”
Three words were gently spit out in his mouth, and the breeze under Liu Ling's feet moved, and his body instantly turned into an afterimage and disappeared in place.
By the time he showed up, he was already behind the Headless Horseman.
"Bloody battles. ”
Between the swings of the Great Wilderness Blood Halberd, blood-colored rays of light appeared in the air, heading towards the bone horse under the Headless Horseman.
Without any accidents, under this spirit-level supernatural technique, the four legs of the bone horse were cut off in an instant.
"Roar. ”
The bony horse's legs were broken. The Headless Horseman on its body seemed to have been greatly damaged, and an inexplicable roar came out, and the aura on its body began to wilt.
