Chapter Eighty-Eight: Death
Long Daoren was shocked back by him, his face was surprised, but he immediately sneered: "I do have some ability." I thought you demons had been tamed into dogs, but now you are different. I want to know, I can catch the three tricks of a real person, and then I will talk to you in detail!"
As the two spoke, Li Qingyan caught his claws. But as soon as Long Zhenren's voice fell, the scale armor on his wrist suddenly opened, and then he twisted his arm, and the edge of the scale armor cut Li Qingyan's palm like a sharp blade, and blood splashed everywhere.
As soon as his blood splashed onto Long Zhenren's robe, he immediately sneered and sneered green smoke and scorched small holes. Splashing on his scales, the armor was eroded into white stars, and then when the wind blew, it became holes!
This change surprised the demon, and he didn't know what kind of supernatural power it was. But he immediately pulled back and danced his robe and drank: "Five Spirits Night Wandering God is coming!!"
Beside him, there were immediately five more gray figures. It is about three meters tall and elongated. A square body, two long legs like stilts, looking like the shadow of a tree in the night.
As soon as this thing appeared, he leaned over to grab Li Qingyan. It looks sluggish and slow, like a creaking old wooden figure. Such an offensive can be easily dodged. But when Li Qingyan dodged, the body of the night wandering god suddenly flickered, and immediately blocked his retreat.
He subconsciously condensed his spirit to see the luck of these five "night wandering gods".
The Night Wanderer is not really a god. The "gods" summoned by the sorcery in the schools of practice are not really gods, although ancient practitioners believed that they were some kind of embodiment of real gods.
After modern cultivation techniques and booming technology gradually complement each other, people can figure out their true nature through some instruments and experiments.
These things count as traces of dead souls.
The simple way to put it is that humans and demons have souls in their bodies. After death, the spiritual power in the soul is scattered to heaven and earth, but the soul itself leaves traces in the world. For example, a long, long time ago, an organism has become a fossil in the soil, but some traces and structures have been preserved.
Practitioners use secret methods to find these traces, inject spiritual power into them, and stimulate them again, and become these slightly humanoid "incarnations of gods".
As a result, they are more like "things" than some kind of living organism.
When Li Qingyan went to see their luck, he naturally found that the "tentacles" on their bodies, or the "strings" that Dunfrey said, were far simpler than people or demons.
In an instant, he found the connection between the five nocturnal spirits and himself, and without the influence of the physical body on vision and other perceptions, things became extremely intuitive.
There are "strings" on the body of the dragon real people who control them. This "string" means the secret method he has cast to contain him by manipulating these five things. If you want to break it by serious means, you probably have to understand the magic used by Long Zhenren, and then come up with countermeasures based on it, and also use magic to exert influence.
But what Li Qingyan sees is similar to a more abstract, more intuitive "concept map" that strips away all non-major factors. So he tried to "pluck" the five strings gently.
The results are immediate.
Li Qingyan turned around sharply, avoiding the two hands of a night wandering detective. As a result of this action, a drop of blood in his palm was thrown out and splashed on the left side of Long Zhen's body. The demon used his spiritual power to cast a spell, and the sleeves of his robe swelled, stirring up a gale around him. When the gale met the lamppost on the side of the road, it gave birth to a fleeting little whirlwind.
But it was this whirlwind that swept the blood and caused it to change its direction, and it was splashing into the eyes of the demons!
I felt a tingling pain, and then the vision of my left eye became blurred. This pain immediately pulled the entire left half of his head like a thread, and Long Zhenren screamed in pain, and the spiritual power in his body suddenly froze for a moment. This moment was the critical moment to summon the luck of the Five Spirits Night Wandering God - the five gray figures that surrounded Li Qingyan flickered again and disappeared without a trace.
Long Zhenren didn't know how this kind of unfortunate thing happened, and Li Qingyan didn't know what the details were. Using this ability from Dumfrey is really like driving a car—plug in the keys, ignite the fire, and the car starts. As for how many components are working precisely in this process, it is not up to the driver to know.
In a sense, this ability is directly manipulating cause and effect!
Li Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief: "Real person, I took your first move." ”
Demon Xiu's left eye hurts very much. In just two blinks, the eye's vision changed from blurry to dark. He wiped his face violently and shouted: "Xiaoxiao means, you use poison!!"
"I was just lucky. Li Qingyan said, "But luck is also part of the strength - ask the real person to make a second move." ”
As he said this, he glanced at the sky again. The giant red eye that represented the Desolate Dragon King grew even bigger with the seven-colored glow that surrounded it. This means that it is approaching rapidly—Pei Yuanxiu said that at its speed at that time, it may take an hour to reach the sky above Beishan, but at the current speed, this time may be shortened to less than twenty minutes.
Li Qingyan just said to Long Zhenren that if this place cannot be attacked for a long time, nuclear weapons may be used. Before today, he would not think about this, but only to scare him. But after learning about the dark minds of those powerful people at this time, he no longer doubted this.
He didn't want to be hit by a nuclear bomb at all, so he wanted to quickly get rid of the third-level demon cultivator in front of him so that he could support Pei Yuanxiu.
As for whether he has this ability...... Even he wasn't sure.
He never lied to Pei Yuanxiu. Even he didn't know where the upper limit of his power was—or, rather, where it was in times of extreme danger.
Over the past few years, he has dabbled in a variety of schools of practice. After leaving the camp and not being able to get in touch with more practices, he also sponsored some students from poor families. Not because he was a philanthropist, but because the students were highly gifted enough to go into the ashram or the seminary.
In this way, he can continue to acquire some methods that he has not set foot in before, and then integrate them. Gradually, he was able to realize that there was a forbidden force in his body that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
The prohibition melted into his blood and bones, almost like a part of his body. He felt that part of his power had been suppressed. Perhaps along with those forces being suppressed, there was something else. For example, memories, such as certain desires.
He once told Dumfrey that he had been suppressing his desires—not by some analogy. In the dead of night, especially in recent months, he could already feel the occasional desire to break free from the confinement.
That thing...... Scared him. It was a desire full of violent emotions, a pleasure full of blood. In the pit that night, this longing briefly came to his head because of his agitation, and told him to sit quietly by Lu Buxiu's side and watch the people in the pit who promoted the association in the pit being killed by Zhou Lihuang one by one. And when he heard their screams...... I'm excited!
Based on his experience over the years, Li Qingyan has gradually realized that when he is in an extremely dangerous situation, that prohibition may be temporarily opened a little bit. While bringing him short-lived, stronger power, it will also make that dark desire come to the fore.
Because of this, he gambled with Zhou Yunting that night...... It's a pity that the man is not strong enough.
But now this dragon real person seems to be very strong.
And he himself was in a hurry.
So Li Qingyan took a deep breath: "Real person, when you make the second move, you must do your best." The third-level demon is very rare in the mainland. But the way you are now disappoints me. ”
