Volume 1 Entering the Sect Chapter 37 Narrowly Defeated
After landing on the ground, Xiao An got up and distanced himself from the shopkeeper, without any injuries.
The shopkeeper was also very surprised when he saw that Xiao An was not solved by one palm. Although he said that he was in a state of serious injury, the power of this palm just now was much weaker. But there is still no problem at all in dealing with a fifth-level Qi refining monk, even a sixth-level Qi refining monk can be killed in one go.
Seeing the young man's casual appearance, the shopkeeper really wanted to rush forward and give the young man another slap, but the young man was killed. But just now, the act of absorbing the spiritual power in the quicksand in an instant brought a great impact to his body, and at this time, all his strength was used to suppress the damaged meridians, and it was difficult to move it now.
Drawing spiritual power from the enemy's spells is the effect of forcibly urging the exercises. This practice is extremely harmful to the body, and even if you are not injured, you will not be able to stand it. The shopkeeper did this in a state of serious injury, completely asking for his own death.
The reason why the shopkeeper chose this way was because he hated Xiao An very much.
Although the wounds inflicted on the shopkeeper by the hunchbacked old man and the pseudo-ninth-layer monk looked terrifying, they did not affect the shopkeeper's cultivation. And Xiao An's few "thunder technique" talismans, although they seem to have caused little damage to the shopkeeper, have ruined the shopkeeper's path.
The thunder and lightning inspired by Xiao An's first few "Thunder Falling Technique" talismans took the wound as the entrance, directly acting on the shopkeeper's internal organs, shaking the foundation of the shopkeeper's cultivation, even after the injury was healed, it was difficult to keep the existing cultivation.
Hindering people from becoming enlightened, such as killing their parents, this hatred is not shared, so the shopkeeper will want to take Xiao An's life at any cost.
"Xiao An, are you okay?" At this time, Lingyue ran out of the woods, hugged Xiao An's arm, and even spoke with a hint of crying.
I saw a big handprint on Xiao An's chest, and the shirt at the handprint had disappeared, and it could be seen that there was a dark brown inner armor inside the shirt, and the surface of the inner armor was already covered with cracks like spider webs at this time.
Obviously, Xiao An's ability to escape the catastrophe just now depends on this inner armor, but looking at the appearance of this inner armor, it is not far from being scrapped.
"I'm fine, what's going on with you?" Xiao An's eyes were fixed on the shopkeeper, for fear that the other party would raid again, and he didn't notice Lingyue's abnormality at all.
"It's ready, but there are not enough spirit stones. Lingyue quickly let go of Xiao An's arm, took a small step back, and said with some twist.
It turned out that Lingyue had been arranging the formation in the woods, and because there were not enough spirit stones, she came to Xiao An to ask for spirit stones. As soon as he came out, he saw Xiao An being slapped away by a palm, and hugged Xiao An's arm in a hurry.
"You come with me. Lingyue saw that Xiao An looked like she was going to dig out the spirit stone, so she hurriedly interrupted Xiao An's movements, and grabbed Xiao An and dragged Xiao An away.
......
When he saw the shopkeeper walking into the formation laid by Lingyue, Xiao An let out a long breath, and hurriedly held the two spirit stones in his hands, intending to restore the aura in his body. It's just that after relaxing, Xiao An immediately felt a burst of detachment from his body, and he couldn't enter a state of meditation.
At this time, Lingyue had a basin-sized array plate in front of her, and in addition to the complex spirit patterns, dozens of spirit stones were also inlaid on it.
I saw Lingyue's pair of jade hands constantly adjusting on the array disk, Lingyue's hands seemed to have magical power, and the spiritual light that appeared on the array disk also moved with the position of her hands, and not far from the two of them, a gray mist covering an area of about dozens of zhang also changed. And I heard a roar from time to time inside.
And when the roar came, the color of some of the spirit stones inlaid on the array plate in front of Ling Yue would quickly become dim, and some of the spirit stones would even turn directly into flying ashes. At this time, Lingyue would quickly click on the array disk with her hand to maintain the normal operation of the array disk, and quickly put a good spirit stone on it with the other hand.
As time goes on, the roaring sound inside the fog gets shorter and louder at intervals.
And there are more and more abnormal spirit stones on the array disk in front of Lingyue, sometimes three or four spirit stones will be exhausted or shattered at the same time, Lingyue not only needs to pay attention to replacing the spirit stones at all times, but also needs to quickly determine which positions of the formation are affected, and maintain the normal operation of the large array with her own spiritual power.
This situation consumed the monk's divine sense and spiritual power the most, and after a while, Ling Yue's forehead was covered with sweat, and Ling Yue's face became more and more pale.
More than a hundred spirit stones on the ground were almost used up, and at this time, the roar in the formation had already resounded, and even Xiao An was staring at the array in front of Lingyue with a gloomy face.
Lingyue no longer bothered to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and the hands that adjusted the array plate were so fast that she could only see an afterimage. At this time, Lingyue's body also began to sway slightly, and her face became whiter than snow, and it seemed that she couldn't last long.
At this moment, only a loud "......boom" was heard, and the sound came from the fog in the distance. And the spirit stones on the array disk in front of Lingyue were all shattered, and even the array disk was broken into several pieces.
At this time, Lingyue's body was about to fall as soon as her body was crooked, Xiao An hurriedly hugged Lingyue's shoulder, and both of them looked into the gray mist in the distance.
I saw that the gray mist slowly dissipated, and the figure of the shopkeeper slowly walked out of the mist, staring at Xiao An and Lingyue with bloodthirsty eyes.
Xiao An and Lingyue's hearts sank to the bottom at once, and at this time, the two of them were no longer able to escape, so they could only lead their necks to be slaughtered.
The shopkeeper's hideous face squeezed out a wicked smile, and walked towards Xiao An and Lingyue step by step. When each step landed, it was like stepping on the hearts of Xiao An and Lingyue, making the faces of the two even paler.
When the shopkeeper walked less than three feet away from the two of them, he suddenly fell straight to the ground, and there was no more movement.
Xiao An and Lingyue were a little overwhelmed by the ups and downs of the things in front of them, and finally Xiao An let go of Lingyue, walked to the side of the shopkeeper with courage, and with a wave of his hand, a small knife flew out and easily cut off his head.
Xiao An and Lingyue only breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and the two of them smirked at each other for a long time before they hurriedly cleaned up the battlefield.
Xiao An didn't notice that when she let go of Lingyue, a flush appeared on Lingyue's face.
Before leaving, Xiao An waved his hand, and a small fireball flew towards the corpse of the shopkeeper.
In an instant, a flame nearly two feet high rose from the corpse of the shopkeeper, several times stronger than the fire on the hunchbacked old man and the pseudo-ninth-layer monk.
Could it be that this shopkeeper can defeat one against two because his physical body is strong enough? Xiao Anxin secretly speculated.
The spiritual power in the monk's body is mainly concentrated in the dantian, and secondly, some are scattered in the monk's flesh and blood.
If the monk dies, the aura in the dantian will immediately dissipate between heaven and earth, but the speed at which the aura in the monk's muscles, bones, flesh and blood is dissipated is much slower. Therefore, the strength of the flame when the monk burns after death is completely determined by the amount of spiritual power remaining in the body.
