Just when Shangguan Jing was about to take action, an old voice appeared in his mind: "Jing'er, listen to me first!"
"Master!" Shangguan Jing said angrily: "This guy said he wanted to stop me from killing the man named Huang. It's obviously my obstacle. Do you still want to persuade me to calm down!"
"Jing'er, don't worry, I don't want to stop you, I just want to remind you that there is something weird about this kid, and it seems that he is not as simple as he seems.
If you want to take action, it's best to use all your strength from the beginning and kill him as soon as possible. Don't let him have a chance to breathe! "
"Thank you, Master, for reminding me, my disciple understands!"
Shangguan Jing looked at Liu Nian with disdain, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said jokingly: "If it were on the vast grassland outside, if you wanted to beat me, you would be 70% sure, but in this small cave, In...you are my enemy, what are your chances of winning?"
"If I were outside, there would be no limit to my ability to dodge. As long as I stay vigilant at all times, as a physical practitioner who is good at fighting with brute force, you would probably have a hard time even touching me.
However, if you say 70%, you are looking down on me! To be precise, my chance of winning should be 80%. "
Liu Nian looked at the surrounding environment and said bluntly: "The space in this cave is too small, there is not much room for me to dodge, and you can also use the wall to borrow strength to quickly approach me. The terrain is not conducive to me."
"If you calculate it this way, my chance of winning is almost..." Liu Nian said seriously and firmly: "Ninety percent!"
Looking at Liu Nian's serious look, Shangguan Jing let out a burst of laughter, while his fists hidden under the cloak were secretly accumulating strength.
"Hahaha, the Haoqi Immortal Sect is indeed a low-class trash sect, but it actually gave birth to an arrogant man like you!"
Shangguan Jing, who was laughing heartily, suddenly had a sharp light in his eyes. Immediately, he suddenly raised his foot and stepped forward. The soles of his feet, covered with blood, contained unimaginable power.
In just an instant, two dents were made on the originally flat ground, which meant that Shangguan Jing had already taken two steps forward.
It seemed that because Shangguan Jing's speed was so fast, Liu Nian didn't react at all. He still stood there and made no other movements except spreading his legs a little.
Seeing Liu Nian's weak performance, Shangguan Jing couldn't help but be a little surprised.
When he thought about it, even if Liu Nian was a martial artist who was not good at close combat, he was also a strong person specially named by his master, so his reaction speed could not be so slow.
Could it be that... the master made a mistake?
Impossible. Master, he was a powerful person in the state of distraction when he was alive. His strength is unimaginable. How could he be mistaken?
It must be that I have become much stronger than my master expected!
Despite Liu Nian's weak performance, Shangguan Jing still planned to stop.
Because no matter whether Liu Nian is really weak or pretending to be weak, as long as there is someone who can stop him from taking revenge, it is completely justified to kill him.
When he was only three meters away from Liu Nian, Shangguan Jing stepped forward with greater force. When his soles touched the ground, the solid floor became like a lake, with countless earth and rocks splashing everywhere like water splashes.
Shangguan Jing showed a ferocious smile and stared at Liu Nian with confident eyes.
At this time, half of his legs had already stepped into the ground, becoming a solid point of leverage that allowed him to launch his strongest attack.
The next moment, Shangguan Jing's figure began to twist, and he used martial arts techniques to focus all the momentum of his body into his left fist.
Accompanied by the harsh sound of breaking through the air, a fist containing terrifying power struck Liu Nian: "You die!"
At this critical moment, Liu Nian finally made a move. He moved the fingers in his sleeves and made a crisp and pleasant...snap of his fingers.
Snapped!
This crisp sound reached Shangguan Jing's ears, and his body seemed to have lost control. His knees bent, his body leaned forward, and his fists slid down.
Because half of his leg was still stuck in the soil, Shangguan Jing was forced to fall to the ground. He slipped under Liu Nian's crotch at a very fast speed, went straight out of the hall, and hit the wall of the corridor.
Boom!
The loud noise caused was the final result of all his efforts.
Liu Nian turned around leisurely and stepped forward along the ground where Shangguan Jing was sliding. As he walked, he said: "Although the "Bat Blood Body Forging Technique" can rapidly improve the practitioner's body, it cannot enhance the practitioner's soul. .
It is very difficult to control an overly powerful body with a weak soul. A monk in this situation will become particularly lethargic, because only sleep can relieve the pressure on the monk's soul.
However, when the physical strength of a monk exceeds the limit that the monk's soul can bear, the body will begin to consume the soul, making the monk's soul become weaker and weaker. "
Liu Nian walked to Shangguan Jing's side, grabbed his red hair, pulled out his head from the wall with a strong pull, and then turned his body over.
Now, Shangguan Jing still had that ferocious and confident smile on his face, but his eyes had long lost their sparkle, and there were faint snores coming from his nose.
Liu Nian shook his head and murmured: "With your current weak soul, you can't even compare to my little bumpkin. How can you withstand my 'finger snapping dream' move!"
Just as Liu Nian was sighing with emotion, the inner demon suddenly issued a warning: "Second Nian, be careful!"
After this warning, the snoring stopped instantly. The eyes of Shangguan Jing, who was already unconscious, turned pure black, with a cold murderous intention lurking in them.
Liu Nian's hair stood on end, and he suddenly felt something bad. He was about to withdraw, but a fist filled with rich blood energy hit him one step ahead.
At such a close distance, Liu Nian had no time to dodge.
He had no choice but to hold his arms across his chest to defend himself while condensing a magic barrier to withstand the punch.
There was only a soft sound, and the magic barrier shattered instantly, and Liu Nian was sent flying backwards by this heavy punch.
His back hit the wall. The solid stone wall was like paper at this moment, and he was easily knocked out of a human-shaped hole.
His body passed through walls one after another, flew sideways through corridors, and finally crashed into a stone room before barely stopping.
Shangguan Jing stood up, his eyes lingering on the human-shaped hollow on the wall for a while, with a bit of confusion on his face.
Strange, I have clearly hit him, but there is something wrong with this touch...
Could it be said that he has a defensive magic weapon of excellent quality?
Forget it, now is not the time to think about this...
In the stone room, Liu Nian was lying on the ground, rubbing his arms and chest after being hit by fists.
"Eh? Why doesn't it hurt?"
"Because before you were hit, I had already activated Jiapo Baoyi for defense."
Liu Nian stood up unsteadily, and when he saw the path he had made with his body, he pondered for a moment, and immediately took a stance to face the enemy.
"Da Nian, I just saw that Shangguan Jing's eyes turned completely black. Does he have an inner demon living in his body like me?"
"Er Nian, your guess is possible, but the chance is very small!
Shangguan Jing's obsession was very weak, far from enough to form an inner demon, let alone for the inner demon to control his body to fight back.
And according to my analysis, the darkening of the eyes is a manifestation of the alien spirit occupying the body. This alien spirit may not be the inner demon. "
"Um... Da Nian, what is a strange soul? Why haven't I heard you talk about it?"
Liu Da Nian clicked his tongue and said: "This is a term I just picked up. As long as the soul controlling the body is not the original soul of the body, this body can be classified as a foreign soul.
Therefore, the person who controls his body and punches you may also be the soul of other life forms. "
Liu Nian was on guard in the stone room for a while, but Shangguan Jing was not seen coming to finish the attack.
"Da Nian, if he doesn't take advantage of the victory and pursue it, is that alien soul also afraid of the 'flicking his fingers into the dream' trick?"
"The alien soul that can forcefully control the body is definitely not low in strength. It is impossible to be afraid of dream-inducing methods!"
Liu Nian was on alert for a while longer. Seeing that Shangguan Jing still didn't show up, he set off directly through the hole in the wall and came to the place where he was knocked away.
The ground in front of me was filled with rubble, and there was not a single person in sight.
Liu Nian used his spiritual consciousness to explore again, but still could not find any trace of Shangguan Jing: "Da Nian, he hid his aura and was hiding in the dark to attack me, or he really left!"
"Second thought, I just used my spiritual consciousness to search a corner within three hundred meters, and I didn't find any suspicious aura. I think he must have really left."
Hearing the inner demon's words, Liu Nian breathed a sigh of relief and completely let down his guard.
Because he knew that the inner demon's spiritual consciousness was far stronger than his own. If Shangguan Jing could avoid the detection of his own inner demon, then even if he was prepared, it would be difficult to avoid the opponent's sneak attack.
Shao Qing and Liu Nian rushed to the center of the hall. The blood essence in the blood pool had been drained.
Nowadays, the most eye-catching thing in the hall, apart from a few large footprints on the floor, is the white jade coffin hanging in the air.
Using sword skills to cut off the chains, Liu Nian skillfully opened the coffin lid, revealing an old male corpse lying inside.
To be precise, this was a mummified corpse. The corpse was so thin that it was all skin and bones, with dry eyes and no trace of moisture, as if it had been dead for a long time.
"Da Nian, how strange!" Liu Nian twitched his nose and said, "This corpse has withered to such an extent, why doesn't it have any smell at all?"
"Second thought, the skinny appearance of this corpse is not caused by aging.
You see, the skin of this corpse is very complete, but it is a little shriveled and collapsed, like a balloon that has just deflated. If it has withered due to the passage of time, there should be signs of decay.
If I guessed correctly, this jade coffin has the function of keeping corpses incorruptible. It is a good treasure that can be taken away. Anyway, it will be used one day! "
Liu Nian nodded and smiled, feeling that what the inner demon said was still so reasonable and convincing.
"Second thought, combined with the current condition analysis, before the cave was opened, this corpse was intact and not much different from when it was alive.
Shangguan Jing should have opened the jade coffin and extracted all the essence and blood from the corpse, so it became like this. "
After putting the jade coffin into the storage bag, Liu Nian was stunned and said, "I suddenly remembered that I came to see Mr. Huang, but I haven't seen him yet!
Da Nian, do you have any other way to contact him in this complicated cave? "
"Of course!"
"any solution?"
"Humanity's most primitive means of communication... Roar!"
