Chapter 166: Borrowing the Corpse to Return the Soul

Most of the martial arts moves in the world, as long as they are not wild paths of third- or fourth-rate sects, are equipped with special footwork.

Some of them are integrated into the moves, and they complement the moves, and some are created separately, especially the famous schools, and the footwork training is a compulsory content after the introduction.

The purpose of the footwork of each major sect is nothing more than two kinds, one is to find a solution to a favorable tactical position according to the terrain and the relative position of the opponent at the time of the battle, and the other is to find an opportunity to slip away when the forces of the enemy and us are very different. The footwork of various major schools, such as the Lost Trace Step, Ling Bo Micro Step, Ye Zhi Step, and even the Square Step that terrifies the heroes of the world, is the same.

However, no matter how complex the footwork, there is a fixed pattern to be found. Xiao Jinyan mastered this principle and saw through the ghost king's unruly steps. Once the footwork is broken, all actions fall into their own calculations, how can the opponent not fall behind?

The ghost king's martial arts are much higher than Xiao, Li, and Zhao, but in Dingling Mountain, they have always been reluctant to suppress with the realm, and the three of them don't know the reason.

Seeing that Xiao Jinyan successfully dragged the ghost king, Li Chengcheng and Zhao Lanjiang were about to save Yu Jiaxue, but the ghost king finally couldn't hold it back, and with a light roar, the entire mountain was full of yin wind.

Looking at the ghost king again, he was shrouded in a thick fog, and there was no trace of him, only a bloody cane, faintly glowing red in the thick fog.

Ghost King Mist.

It is said that the Ghost King Sect has three great masters, one is to take no vain steps, through strange angles, to find the enemy's weak points, and enter the state of attack. The second is the Ghost King Mist, once activated, the Yin Qi between heaven and earth will gather around, if the concentration is a little weaker, it will even produce illusions, so that the heart will collapse;

The black fog around the ghost king is the ghost king fog. The three of them bore the brunt of the attack, and suddenly felt a cold intention coming, as if in the darkness, there were countless unjust souls and evil ghosts asking for their lives.

Xiao Jinyan shouted, "Keep saving people!"

After saying that, he stood concentratingly, stopping in front of the ghost king, the true yuan of heaven and earth was transformed by string force, and a steady stream flowed out of his arms, and outside of this mist, a wall of qi was built.

One punch with the left hand, one punch with the right hand, and so on and so on for a dozen punches.

With every punch, the space in front of him was distorted, and the thickness of that qi wall increased by one point.

Xiao Jinyan knew that his martial arts realm was too low to condense qi into a purer attack power, so he could only win by quantity, fortunately, the true yuan of heaven and earth here was quite rich, with string force as the guide, and four hundred and nine knots as the bridge, after dozens of punches, a wall of true qi separated the ghost king and the three of them at both ends.

The Ghost King suddenly laughed.

He was amazed that Xiao Jinyan could manipulate so many Heaven and Earth True Elements, but so many True Elements, used in an almost stacked way, could only be described in four words.

However, Xiao Jinyan is bitter and self-aware.

Before Sun Qiangu destroyed the meridians with a punch, he also touched the threshold of the Zhixuan Upper Realm, and was able to use the true yuan and manipulate the true yuan, so that the moves could exert greater power. However, after breaking the realm today, the original set of internal strength cultivation methods is completely unusable, one is that the meridians have changed, and the other is that he has embarked on a different path from ordinary people by opening the acupoints with string force.

In the mist, the Ghost King took a stepless step and came to the wall of qi, and the bloody staff pointed slightly and pointed on the wall of qi.

A screeching sound was heard.

The bloody cane was like a needle, passing through Xiao Jinyan's wall of true qi, slowly and steadily, and the sound of the cane rubbing against the wall of qi was terrifying.

Xiao Jinyan threw more than a dozen punches in a row, trying to stop the ghost king, but after all, the realm gap was here, and no matter how much internal force he had, it would only be in vain.

Burst.

Xiao Jinyan spat blood from his mouth, and the whole person fell backwards, Li Zhao and the others were beside Jiaxue, and they were helpless, when they saw Xiao Jinyan flying over, they took him down.

Xiao Jinyan coughed for a while, indicating that he was fine.

The three of them stood in front of the sarcophagus, and saw Yu Jiaxue and Mrs. Qi lying together in the sarcophagus, they had lost consciousness, and they felt that the two were very similar at the beginning.

The Ghost King stood aside and did not pursue.

Zhao Lanjiang said, "It's important to save people first." As he spoke, he raised the golden knife and prepared to cut off the sarcophagus and rescue Yu Jiaxue.

The Ghost King sneered, "The formation has been launched, if you go down with this sword, I'm afraid she will lose her life immediately!"

Zhao Yanjiang said, "Hurry up and stop the Blood Sacrifice Array!"

The Ghost King's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he immediately laughed, "Blood Sacrifice Array?" Haha, do you really think that this seat did everything possible to catch her here for the Blood Sacrifice Array?"

Xiao Jinyanqi said, "Isn't it?"

The Ghost King said lightly, "The Blood Sacrifice Array and the Dragon Slaying Array are the two major formations of my Demon Sect, which have long been lost five hundred years ago, so you can think of it." ”

"What's that?"

The Ghost King glanced up, "After you have seen it, you will naturally understand!"

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

A ray of sunlight came down from the top of the mountain, and the three of them found that there was a big stone hole with a bowl mouth in the mountain, above the dome, and at this moment, the sunlight shone in through the stone cave.

The sunlight shone on the sarcophagus, this crystal sarcophagus was like a prism, folding the sunlight into several colored rays, and the original blood-mist-shrouded boulder gradually brightened up after the sunlight shone on it.

There was a roar.

Inside the grooves of the boulder, dark red liquid flows.

Li Chengcheng suddenly remembered something, at this time, Zhao Lanjiang was closest to the crystal sarcophagus, and said in a loud voice, "Old Zhao, quickly destroy Mrs. Qi's body!"

Zhao Lanjiang wondered, "What do you mean?"

"This is not the Blood Sacrifice Array, this is the Soul Transfer!"

Soul transfer, also known as borrowing the corpse to return the soul, is recorded in the Manichaean canon, after death, the soul is immortal, with the help of the formation to lock the soul, cut off the rebirth, but find the person with the same blood, take it as the host, and use this formation to transfer the human soul to the host, so as to lead to immortality and eternal life.

The Ghost King Sect and Manichaeism have the same origin, if there is really such a formation, it is reasonable, but at the beginning, the three of them mistakenly thought that this was just a blood sacrifice array, and the blood sacrifice array would usually be launched at midnight, and in this regard, the three of them misjudged the situation.

If this is the case, Mrs. Qi will move her soul to Yu Jiaxue, at that time, even if Yu Jiaxue is rescued, it will not make any sense.

The Ghost King laughed, "It's late!"

He suddenly attacked, and instantly came to the three of them, and waved his bloody cane, intending to force the three of them away.

Li Chengcheng swung his sword to block, no longer daring to retain his strength, and used the rules of the True Yuan of Heaven and Earth in the Zhixuan Upper Realm to the extreme.

A sword swinged.

It is one of the three major sword moves of the Li family in Jinling, Xiaguang Wandao.

Seven rays of light erupted from the long sword, and a dragon groan slashed through the air, stabbing at the seven key points in front of the ghost king.

Xiao Jinyan has been accumulating strength for a long time, he calculated the position with the ghost king, when the ghost king came to Xiao Jinyan's "Feng" position, Xiao Jinyan also followed the ghost king's unvain step, stepped on the "exchange" position with his left foot, and his right foot went to the no-vain position, and led the true yuan of heaven and earth with string force, and attacked behind him.

One is the person who has practiced the Xuanxuan Realm to the peak, and the other is the Wenjing Realm that has been open for five hundred years, the two young masters have joined forces to strike, even if it is the Ghost King, he does not dare to come easily, the Ghost King fog opened, passed through the two of them, and stepped on the position of Zhao Lanjiang.

Xiao Jinyan shouted, "No vain!"

Zhao Lanjiang was about to destroy the sarcophagus, but when he heard Xiao Jinyan's reminder, he didn't look back, and the golden knife passed through his armpit and stabbed behind him.

When!

The golden knife hits the bloody cane.

Burst.

There was a muffled sound.

It was dark, and there was silence all around, without a glimmer of light.

Navigating the Landscape.

Xiao Jinyan's heart was awe-inspiring, and the ghost king finally released his own law space at this moment.

And in all directions, the ghost king was gone.

As long as the three of them are trapped in the space, survive this period of time, and wait for the formation to be completed, all the efforts of the three of them will be wasted.

This is the gap in the realm.

It is precisely because of this, no matter what kind of disadvantage the ghost king was in before, he was not in a hurry at all, because among the three of them, he was the only one who was in the Dimensional Realm, and only he could release the law space.

Xiao Jinyan was helpless, if he was still in the Xuan Realm, with his grasp of the true yuan of heaven and earth in the realm, he might be able to find the hiding place of the ghost king with string force, but now, the two of them are two realms apart, and he has no way.

Although Zhao Lanjiang was a half-step general image, he was never able to establish his own spatial laws to fight, and he swung three or four swords in the air, trying to find a flaw.

With each swing of the knife, the space twisted, cracked a few gaps, and then closed again.

A few knives in a row, all the same.

Xiao Jinyan had an idea and said, "Let's see if we can cut out a square!"

When Zhao Lanjiang heard this, he cut the knife horizontally, two horizontally and two vertically, drew a tic-tac-toe, and split it on the ghost king's space, splitting the space into a gap.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinyan connected the string force to introduce the true element of heaven and earth from the gap to prevent the self-repair of the ghost king's space.

Through the gap, I heard a rumbling sound in the mountain, and the voice of the ghost king came from my ears.

"I would like to awaken the sleeping gods with the blood of darkness. ”

"I want to sink forever, and to bring forth the greatest power of the endless abyss, calling you here through my bloodline. ”

"I want to burn myself in flames, so that my beloved will be released from prison. ”

"From now on be thy servant, and be in darkness forever!"

The three of them were shocked in their hearts, this passage was the few lines of words they saw next to the sarcophagus when they broke into Dingling Mountain not long ago.

In the cave, the light is magnificent.

Six huge stone pillars leading to the top of the mountain, emitting a deafening sound. Xiao Jinyan sensed that there was a change in the true yuan, and said strangely, "There are six sword qi outside!"

Zhao Lanjiang asked, "Someone is coming?"

Looking at Li Chengcheng again, I saw that his expression was solemn, and the long sword in his hand was trembling slightly, as if he had been summoned.

Incomparably familiar sword intent.

A name that has almost been forgotten is imprinted in Li Chengcheng's heart.

Li Jianxin.
