Chapter Fifty-Nine: Phantom Swordsmanship

"I have one more question. Cangma's expression still didn't change, so no one could tell what kind of attitude he had towards the whole thing, "Why did the ghost heart stone fall into another person's body again?" ā€

When this question was asked, the patriarch's face showed obvious mood swings, his teeth clenched, the obviously bulging masseter muscles on his thin face trembled faintly, and the clod of earth in his hand was shattered by his grip.

Although he wanted to hide this emotion, the resentment in his heart was too strong.

"He killed my son!"

"Who?"

"Wang Lei!"

"Go on. ā€

"Wang Lei is the best young man in our village, and he is Wang Yuan's father. When he knew that the 'ghost' existed and kept slaughtering the villagers, he planned to get rid of the 'ghost'. ā€

"He went alone?"

"Yes, he is the only one who has the guts to do that. ā€

"So he defeated this 'ghost'?"

"No, he didn't defeat my son, it was the Ghost Heart Stone who abandoned my son and chose him, so he became the second 'ghost'. ā€

"It seems to you that your son died because of him, so you think that he killed your son, so you hate him. ā€

"Not bad. The patriarch slammed his fist to the ground, "If it weren't for him, my son wouldn't have died, and he wouldn't have left me!"

"What happened. ā€

"His body is indeed better suited to hold the Ghost Heartstone than my son, and he still has a part of his consciousness after becoming a 'ghost'. ā€

Hearing this, Cangma suddenly remembered the voice that seemed to come from the abyss - "Save me...... Save me......" I'm afraid this is Wang Lei's last cry. However, he did not interrupt the patriarch's words, and he continued to listen very carefully.

On weekdays, he can still live in the village like a normal person, but on the fifteenth day of every month, on the night of the full moon, he has to kill three people. ā€

Cangma looked into the patriarch's eyes and asked, "Why is that?" He said the question in a very flat tone, which always brought a stronger sense of oppression to the other party. Because although he was asking, in the other party's heart, it seemed that he already knew the answer.

"Because...... I—I don't know. ā€

After receiving this answer, Cangma finally changed his standing position, and he hadn't even moved a finger half a minute before that. He raised his head to look at Shen Fang, then at the moon before turning his gaze back.

"It's because when he was fifteen, the yin qi was at its strongest, so he needed to drink human blood to maintain anything. ā€

"Yes, yes, that's why. ā€

"Maintain what?!" Cangma said abruptly.

"I don't know. ā€

"You know, and you know, that's not all. Cangma's eyes suddenly became sharper, "You are very afraid of me, your fear and your weakness of heart were in your eyes when we talked yesterday, just like you are now." ā€

The patriarch swallowed tremblingly, as if he were on trial.

"You're afraid of me because I'm nosy and upright, but you've done something wrong. The villagers can't help you, but I'm different, because you don't know my details. Cangma pointed at Shen Fang and said: "Yesterday you saw his methods, and you are even more sure that we are not simple characters, so you are very cautious, you have always wanted to hide something." ā€

"Just because you've been trying to hide something, I have to doubt you. ā€

"Yesterday you were afraid of me, and now you are still afraid of me, but when you asked people to take our swords, you were not afraid of me at all. Because you know I'm going to die tonight. ā€

"But I'm not dead, and when we went to look for you, you blocked the door to the secret passage, and you hid yourself. But how do you know I'm not dead because you missed?"

"No, it's not. The patriarch hurriedly said, "We will block the door at this time of month. ā€

"I know you're going to use this as an excuse, but I have one more question. Cangma continued: "After Wang Lei became a ghost, why didn't he kill you?"

"He ......"

Without waiting for the patriarch to argue, Cangma continued: "Of all the people, only you know that the ghost is Wang Lei, because yesterday you told Wang Yuan that he would definitely see his father. You know he's going to be eaten by his father if he catches a black pebble, right? ā€

Cangma didn't intend to give the patriarch another chance to speak, because he didn't have any more questions to ask.

Of course, a father may not be willing to kill his son, just as a son will not be willing to kill his father. ā€

"But the most critical point is here, your son will not kill you when he becomes a ghost, it makes sense, why doesn't Wang Lei kill you when he becomes a ghost? You are the only one among all who has met him, because only you know his true identity, and he will not kill you when you meet, does it make sense?"

"Why was Wang Lei bitten to death by a wolf? It's because you taught him to die. You all moved into the basement, and when you sacrificed the living, Wang Lei was a ghost, so he had to leave the basement at that time. It's too easy to be suspected, so you simply teach him to die, teach him to let the wolf bite to death, so Wang Si saw him being bitten to death by the wolf. But you know he can't die, but then he can be more at your mercy. ā€

"If you want to teach him to die, teach him to die, why? Because you can control him, control him through the ghost heart stone, I think there must be some evil and crooked kung fu recorded on that jade plate. You originally wanted to control me through the Ghost Heart Stone, but unfortunately you miscalculated, although the Ghost Heart Stone entered my body, but you couldn't control me, and you were even more afraid of me. ā€œ

"I know that at first you just wanted to save your son, but after practicing this exercise, you can't go back. In fact, the one who really wants to kill is not a ghost, but you. When the yin energy is at its peak, you can't control the ghosts, and you will be counterattacked, so you have to teach the ghosts to kill. ā€

"So you don't think you deserve to die?"

Cangma has already sentenced the patriarch to death.

Bang, bang, bang, he kowtowed like garlic, "Don't kill me, you can't blame me for this, I didn't know that this exercise would be so evil, I just wanted to save my son......"

"Old man. Cangma held the patriarch's body, "I'm old, give me this salute, I can't stand it." Kowtow is tired, I'll help you cut it off, and it's all over the place. ā€

"You can't kill me!" he said in a strange incantation as his two withered palms suddenly grabbed Cangma's arms.

Suddenly, Cangma felt that a burst of evil fire rose to the sky in the dantian, and the fragments of the golden pill could barely suppress the ghost heart stone.

"I'm sending you on your way, old man!"

His waist suddenly exerted force, the sword "choked" out of its sheath, and he lifted the patriarch's shoulders with both hands and slashed at the blade, and his thin head was sawed off like this.

"Big brother!" everyone was shocked.

Because Cangma immediately picked up his sword and stabbed it into his lower abdomen!

Everything happened so fast that people didn't have time to react.

The tip of the sword against the ghost heart stone actually passed through it in an instant, and the blade of the sword stained red by blood pierced the back, revealing more than seven inches!

"Ahh

"Come out for me!"

The blood-stained ghost heart stone was forcibly thrown out of his body like this.

It seems that it tastes blood, and the ghost heart stone has become more "ferocious", and there is a momentum that will not stop if it does not enter the body of Cangma.

"Get me away!" he shouted, as all bodies were potential donors for the Heartstone. He didn't want any of these brothers to become inhuman and ghostly.

But Cangma can really deal with the ghost heart stone on its own?

The faster he moved, the faster the blood flowed, floating in the air like a red horse.

The Ghost Heart Stone became even more eerie as it sucked blood, emitting a dark red glow and began to extend several small, blood vessel-like tentacles from the center of the heart.

This terrifying stone exuded unprecedented aggression, and its speed also surged several times faster than before, which undoubtedly made Cangma's situation even more dangerous.

Although Cangma can be in danger, although he can rely on tenacious perseverance to make up for the limitations of his wounds, although his sword moves are not leaky.

But.

But the Ghost Heart Stone was able to ignore his sword and pass straight through the sword without taking the slightest damage!

How does this work?

It couldn't be fought at all, and the sword moves he was most proud of had no effect on the stone.

So, he could only hide.

This is where the Ghost Heart Stone is powerful, it can become the treasure of the Ghost Spirit Ninja Dao, naturally it has its advantages, not to mention that this is still a magic weapon refined by the Ghost Spirit Ancestor himself.

How long can you hide, if you can't find a way to turn defeat into victory, it is a matter of time before you lose. It's only a matter of time before the ghost heart stone invades the body and becomes dominated.

At this time, Cangma's situation was already precarious, and the ghost heart stone was almost moving on his body. Fortunately, his foundation is solid, his body is ingenious, and he is as agile as a dragon, which makes the ghost heart stone have no chance to take advantage of it for a long time.

But just when Cangma and Ghost Heart Stone were at a stalemate, he also seemed to have discovered something.

The trajectory of the Ghost Heart Stone is intermittent and incoherent.

It warps time, so it can ignore space barriers!

The reason why it was able to pass through Cangma's sword was because it tampered with time, and it was out of sync with Cangma's time.

In its time, Cangma's sword hadn't been stabbed out yet, so there was no sword in its position, so Cangma's sword couldn't stab it, so it was even more able to ignore spatial obstacles.

Cangma suddenly understood something!

Phantom Swordsmanship.

Cangma once had a bold conjecture, that is, how to stab the fastest sword in the world.

The moment the sword is drawn, it is set as the first time point, and the moment the sword is drawn is set as the second time point.

If he can cross these two points in time, then he can kill first and then draw his sword. He will be able to travel through time and slay his opponents in the past that has already happened. When he returned to the present, his opponent was dead, but his sword had just been drawn.

This is the fastest sword in theory.

He thought it was just a marginal conjecture, he thought he couldn't do it in his life, but now he suddenly understood what to do!
