Chapter 458: Death City Coming
Two days later, Qiye and the others left the city as scheduled.
They didn't stay on the road, there were seven nights and a little empty snow, and they wouldn't easily get lost.
The sky above the dead city, as it had seen in the past, was filled with dark and thick dark clouds, like an inky whirlpool.
The only change was that the trees and flowers around the dead city were even more dead, and the dead qi that lingered on them even condensed into hideous grimaces, rushing towards Qiye and the others from all directions, but they disappeared in an instant when they were about to encounter them.
"The death gas here is too heavy, although there were such things around the dead city back then, but it was far less intense than now. ”
Seven Nights frowned, the changes in the Dead City were not a good thing for him, which further proved that the research on the Dead City had not stopped over the years.
They walked all the way into the vicinity of the dead city, where mountains of white bones were piled up, and lifeless puppet corpses were tirelessly carrying the corpses in all directions around the dead city, walking back and forth in and out of the city.
The moment Nanaya and the others appeared, they suddenly stopped their movements at the same time, raised their heads and swept over there with their hollow and dead pupils.
There was no accident when they were discovered, and they came this time, and they didn't plan to sneak in quietly from the beginning.
"Dead air is a very special kind of qi, and it is impossible for a living person to have dead qi, so this has also become a special method for the dead city to monitor the surroundings. ”
Distinguishing friend from foe through dead air is a simple and practical solution. After discovering that an outsider had broken in, the corpse puppets who had put down their work opened their mouths wide one by one and pounced on them with their teeth and claws.
They are different from the dead air on those flowers and trees, if they really bite them, they will definitely lose a large piece of flesh.
Before they could start fighting back, a sword light slashed behind them, directly slashing several nearby corpse golems into two pieces.
Qiye held the sword of evil in his hand, staring at the lifeless city not far away, and his complicated feelings were indescribable.
At the same time as the corpse puppet was beheaded, under the thick black clouds above the dead city, small black dots suddenly appeared above, and they gradually grew larger in the eyes of Qiye and others, and finally fell in front of the dead city.
Seventy-two undead puppets.
The situation that Seven Nights least wanted to see still appeared.
Among so many puppets, he really saw his former companions, Han Xianzi and Gu Xihan, they were impressively listed!
"You came. It was Gu Xihan who spoke, but this was not Gu Xihan's original voice, but the person behind the curtain who was manipulating him, controlling the speech, "Why, seeing that my former companion has become a puppet, I am only afraid that I am very angry, right?"
"Do you want to tear me to pieces, or do you want to tear these companions to pieces first?" Han Xianzi also suddenly said.
"If you don't kill us all, you won't be able to break into the dead city, and you won't be able to find me, will you?" said more undead golems at the same time.
Looking at this strange scene in front of them, don't say it's Qiye, Fuxue and the others behind Qiye feel their scalps tingle, it's not that they haven't seen weird scenes, it's just that such a picture makes people can't help but feel gloomy.
Qiye shook the evil sword in his hand and said, "With their words, there is no way to stop me." ”
"The immortal puppet started researching five or six years ago, or even earlier, and there is still no progress, isn't it?"
On the opposite side are the seventy-two undead puppets, and both Shirayuki and Baili Strings pay attention to their eerie performance, while Nanaya sees it even deeper.
The immortal puppets who spoke, even if they were no longer pure human beings and could not be measured by the realm of cultivation, the momentum emanating from their bodies could still be felt as the seven nights of the immortal realm.
It's not strong.
This was the judgment he had already made when he saw the seventy-two undead puppets.
If the people in the dead city want to let him be captured, even if it is a former companion on the other side, they are afraid that they will disappoint him.
"Even if I used to be a companion, but now I have become a puppet who aids and abets abuse, will I not be ruthless for this reason?" said Nanaya, looking indifferently at the undead puppet who was talking in front of him.
"Yes, the dignified Demon Lord Seven Nights, for the sake of his own great cause, naturally he will not stick to these 'subsections'!"
For some reason, after hearing Qiye's words, the voice that came out of the mouth of the originally strange immortal puppet vaguely brought out a bit of resentment.
But Seven Nights didn't pay attention to this, the voice of the undead puppet was already strange, and the slight sound fluctuation was even more unlikely to make people care, "Since you know, then don't play this useless trick again." ”
Qiye knew that if the people in the dead city dared to talk to him like this, they must have a certain backhand.
Sure enough, as soon as Qiye's words fell, the hill that was originally filled with white bones collapsed, and new black shadows came out of the smoke and dust.
When Qiye saw these black shadows, his pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly, and he was finally moved!
"I didn't expect that. No, or rather, even if you think of this possibility, you will still be shocked when you see it with your own eyes!" Still said through Gu Xihan's mouth, the people in the dead city didn't seem to be afraid that Seven Nights would vent their anger on this puppet.
One thing he was right.
Seven Nights did think of this possibility, but what he didn't expect was that Dead City's movements would be so fast.
"You know, after I got these corpses, I studied and refined them day and night for the first time, for today!"
The puppets that surrounded Qiye and the others were different from the seventy-two undead puppets that were originally in the dead city, they had an alternative form, so vague that they could only vaguely distinguish the appearance of people, but they dispersed and gathered like thick smoke.
Seven nights have seen something in this form.
It was the star mark sent by the starry sky to attack the human race under the Great Array of Eternal Night.
They retain their human form, but when they die, they revert to a smoke-like form, which is what they are looking like.
"I didn't expect that the mastermind behind the resurrection of the star mark was really you! You are so deeply hidden, you can obviously contribute to the human race to fight against the starry sky, but you do such a thing to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so calculated!" Qiye said coldly.
"Your surprise is unjustified. With the wisdom of the Seven Nights Demon Lord, haven't you already guessed it?"
Once again, the starmarks appeared, and they surrounded the Seven Nights, staring at the Dead City's commands.
"I'm just worried about something I should be worried about. Nanaya silently made the most complete defensive stance, because he knew what he was about to face.
The reason why Starmark is so strong, and why the human monks in the Eternal Night Great Array have suffered heavy casualties, are all because of the human talent given by Starmark by the starry sky, and this talent given to humans by God was plagiarized by the starry sky to deal with humans in turn.
What Nanaya is really worried about is whether these resurrected star marks still have the talent they were given by the stars when they were alive.
"So that's the case, then you can rest assured, because the talent is given by the starry sky in the body of the star mark, and the resurrected puppet is completely able to invoke the power in the body. ”
As soon as the words fell, the star mark that took the lead was the old man who was eliminated through the water origin talent at the beginning of the seven nights, claiming to be the ninth star of Zhou Tianxing's Great Dream Millennium.
Half of his body was now withered, but his movements were unexpectedly flexible, and the fishing line that also appeared in his hand began to twist and turn.
Qiye didn't make a move, but it was Baili Xiange beside him, and at the same time as the fishing line appeared, he put down the wooden box that she had been carrying behind her back and belonged to the Hidden Knife Gate.
Then, a stream of transparent and thin knife qi erupted from the wooden box, like an invisible killing intent with a handle, cutting off the deadly fishing line in mid-air.
"Huh, in such a short period of time, there are actually new people who have joined? The charm of the Demon Lord Seven Nights is really not to be underestimated!" said the people of the dead city, controlling the undead puppet, rather surprised.
Obviously, in his message, there is no one around Qiye who can use such a sharp sword qi.
"Baili Xiangge, the seventh master of the Tibetan Dao Sect, I am here to teach!" Baili Xiange reported her identity, but the wooden box behind her never stopped.
It seemed that it was the first time that he had shown his cultivation in front of the Seven Nights, or that he had to fight the enemy with special care, and the sword qi that Baili Xiange summoned from the wooden box far exceeded the number of silk threads.
The sword qi not only cut off the fishing lines of those old men, but also pierced the sky with a screaming sound, like a mountain and a sea, and re-passed through the resurrected star-scarred corpse.
Traces of black qi emerged from the wounds on Starmark's body, and quickly dissipated between heaven and earth.
"It's amazing, it's worthy of being the person who came with the Demon Lord Qiye, and he really has some ability. ”
Although the man of the dead city was praising Baili String Song, his tone was extremely calm, as if this situation was not unexpected.
"However, the most powerful part of my puppet puppet control technique lies in the word 'immortality'. You can defeat it, you can defeat it, you can destroy it completely, but there's just no way to erase it. Because it exists, it is reasonable!"
As he spoke, the black dead qi that swirled among the surrounding flowers and trees suddenly received a great suction force, and rolled into the star-scarred and tattered body from all sides.
The old man, who had been pierced by the splendid sword qi in dozens of places, returned to his original appearance again.
"So that's the case, the dead air, which is not a threat or useful to us, actually plays an important role in repairing the puppet. No wonder there is so much dead air around the dead city, as long as the dead air is not extinguished, the puppet can never die!"
"Haha, you're right. Now, let me see if you're still as confident as you were at the beginning?"
After sneering, a second attack suddenly struck from the left side of the Seven Nights.
The cold wind from the pavement was biting, and the ice and snow formed in mid-air, and then turned into crystal blades.
It is also the ice and snow star mark that Qiye is familiar with, and it is also the star mark that has his own ability, and it is also the star mark that has his own ability, and he was also found by the dead city and became a puppet of his subordinates!
Blowing Snow reacted extremely quickly to make up for it, and he quickly found a way to deal with the enemies he had fought before.
With a punch, the blowing snow slammed into the ground, and a piece of hard dirt was sliced out of the ground by him, and he kicked it so hard that the mud and the debris in mid-air collided with Bingying.
But before Qiye came to his senses, another attack appeared, and it was a chess piece. Seeing this chess piece, Qiye, who had been standing still, finally made a move!
