"Is this... Manager Tong's [Godly Ring of Disillusionment]? It's really as powerful as the legend says!" Tianjihong heard an unfamiliar caravan man say excitedly next to him. Although he didn't ask any more questions, he must have Tong Bo had defeated many opponents with this trick before, and was recognized by his followers.
It is indeed what the person said. Since monks using weapons like flying rings are quite rare in the mainland, this move can be regarded as Tong Bo's own unique martial art. Except for a few people who were far better than him in cultivation, several monks and spiritual beasts of the same level who had fought against Tong Bo before had fallen to this original martial art; and even though the rest had been weakened, After being imprisoned in the shadow, they used other means to successfully resist the attack of the flying ring, but so far no one has been able to escape from the shadow in a short time.
And just when Tong Bo, who was full of confidence, was about to launch a fatal blow, the dark gray robe touched by more than ten spikes gradually appeared distorted in everyone's sight, as if being affected by an invisible force. The power involves blending into the void. At this time, Tong Bo couldn't help but turn pale with shock. Under the perception of his soul, it stands to reason that the figure of the mysterious man in front of him did not change at all; but the moment his offensive came into contact with this man's body, he He also clearly felt that the more than ten spikes were not hindered at all, just like the feeling of shuttling through the air before, penetrating the twisted figure and stabbing into the void.
At this moment, Rokkaeno's voice suddenly came from behind him: "Be careful! That guy is behind you on the right side, quickly get out of the way!" Unfortunately, this reminder was a little late, when Tong Bo hadn't seen him yet. The false figure, and why Rokkakino behind him could come back to his senses when he had sensed the opponent's movements before, only to see two black vortexes the size of bowls suddenly appeared in the mid-air behind him.
Waves of decayed and oppressive aura came from the bottomless whirlpool, and this feeling was more than ten times stronger than what the cloaked man just exuded. Immediately when Tong Bo turned his head, in the open space directly below the two whirlpools, a hazy shadow slowly rose from the ground. Tianjihong took a closer look and discovered that under the sunlight above his head, the shadow cast by the cloaked man's position was strangely slowly condensing into a human shape on the ground. On the contrary, it was captured by Tong Bo's flying ring. The hit figure dissipated into the void.
It seems that the other party used some method to successfully deceive the soul consciousness of everyone present, and successfully hid his true body two meters away from the fake body using the shadow as a cover. Therefore, Tong Bo's ferocious offensive that he had tried so hard before actually not only had no effect at all, but also fell into passivity, completely exposing the gap behind him to his opponent.
Everyone present, except for the Hexagonal Wilderness who has special detection ability, did not recognize the difference with the naked eye until the cloaked man condensed his true form on the side. Once such a terrifying method is used in actual combat, its effect will be great. It really makes it difficult for the opponent to guard against it. At the moment, everyone had no time to care about what magical means Rokkaeno had to sense the cloaked man's position in advance, and instead all turned their attention to the whirlpool emitting frightening fluctuations behind Tong Bo.
Of course, Tong Bo himself is a man who has experienced hundreds of battles. Although his face looks quite honest and kind, he has struggled in the chamber of commerce and only relied on his true strength to reach the position he is today. The position of team manager. When he realized that his attack failed and his opponent had taken the advantage, Tong Bo reacted quickly and gave up the initial attack and harassment tactics.
When he turned around and found that the opponent had summoned two dark whirlpools of unknown origin out of thin air, Tong Bo wisely did not choose to confront them head-on. Instead, he reached out and took out a portable treasure from his sleeve. According to the grade, this object was roughly Reaching the level of a mid-grade spiritual weapon, its appearance looked like a humanoid puppet; then under its full force, the puppet, which was originally only two feet high, actually grew to the size of an adult in an instant.
Tong Bo gritted his teeth and resolutely chose to sacrifice the spiritual weapon to replace his original position. At this critical moment, bursts of deep tones suddenly emerged from the two whirlpools that appeared out of thin air behind them. This demonic sound that penetrated the ears caused everyone around them to become temporarily dazed, as if they were confused. He stood there like a puppet without his mind. Only Rokkakino seemed to have the means to resist such a bewitching method, and his eyes still maintained a clear look.
However, such invisible notes are not only capable of charming the mind. Everyone who was lost in the music did not notice at this moment that in the mid-air, the spiritual weapon puppet, originally wearing an earthy yellow color and glowing halo, was actually infected by the magic sound that was spreading behind him in just two breaths. , nauseating black and red magic spots began to appear all over his body. When Tong Bo finally recovered from his unconscious state, he saw that the stand-in doll he had just sacrificed had rotted into a pool of black-red liquid on the ground. Suddenly a burst of cold sweat broke out.
Before Tong Bo had time to rejoice that he had escaped with the help of the puppet, he was shocked to find that his arms, like the puppet, began to reveal dense black flares under the erosion of the magic sound. What's even more weird is that there is no pain at all in the skin area covered by black spots, and it is completely impossible to perceive the subtle changes taking place within it with spiritual power. If it weren't for the puppet's lesson learned just now, Tong Bo would have relied on visual observation in time When it comes to the changes in his body, he is likely to be like that puppet, being corroded into a pool of blood by the magic sound in a soundless moment.
There is only one way left for Tong Bo now, and that is to seize the time and retreat, as far away from the unknown vortex ahead as possible. Just based on the movement skills of the cloaked man before, Tong Bo knew that he would definitely not be able to match his opponent in terms of speed; and if the opponent had such a killing move, he could take the risk of directly injuring him severely. It was obvious that he had other motives for leaving himself the opportunity to escape.
If he turns around and runs away like this, there is more than a 90% chance that he will fall into the trap set by the opponent. Taking a step back, even if the opponent does not leave a back-up plan for him, just based on his own body skills , it is also difficult to escape from being chased by opponents, and Tong Bo does not dare to expect that the caravan members behind him who are not as good as him in cultivation can do anything to help him. Therefore, Tong Bo finally decided to use defense as offense. It was more important to use all means to save his life first, and delay as much as possible until the two helpers from the Qingluo Sect arrived from behind.
So with an idea, he turned around and threw himself into the shadow of the flying ring beside him, trying to use the power of his martial arts to block the opponent's footsteps. Although he is trapped in this position and it is difficult to use external means to launch a counterattack, Tong Bo's goal now is just to delay time. It is also a good idea to continue to use spiritual power in the phantom to maintain the flying ring phantom to resist the erosion of the opponent's spells. feasible approach.
I have to say that this trick did indeed have some effect. At this time, Tian Jihong and others also successfully woke up from the bewitchment of the demonic sound. In addition to being frightened by the previous encounter, everyone also hurriedly retreated some distance, all worried that they would fall into the same situation as the puppet. However, everyone's eyes were still focused on the figure in the distance that had completely condensed into a human form. The latter, who revealed his true form, finally raised his head slightly, and seemed to be looking at the golden circle in front of him with some fear. Ring shadow.
Through the light Tianjihong could vaguely observe half of this guy's face. Just like the shadow he had seen before, his cheeks did not look old. On the contrary, they looked very smooth. It was just the excessively fair skin color that made him look very smooth. It was a little leaky, and the lips lacked the color they deserved. The upper part of his face was still covered by the hood, and his eyes could not be seen clearly; but at this moment, unexpectedly, a hoarse sound came from the pale lips. The cloaked man was unable to do anything to his opponent for a moment. , finally spoke:
"Hehe, it's not bad. You were able to escape from my [Cursed Demonic Sound]. It's no wonder that you were able to resist the beast tide for so long before. But it's a pity that in front of the [Spell] that I have practiced, these are nothing. It’s just a little trick. I can’t wait to have a taste of the source of life possessed by a powerful warrior like you! I advise you to just surrender and become nourishment for me on my journey of cultivation!”
Tianjihong looked at Wang Qing, who was also confused. It seemed that even with the latter's knowledge, he had never heard of the spells and the origin of life mentioned by the cloaked man. But what can be determined from this person’s words is that this guy probably didn’t intend to let go of anyone present from the beginning. According to what he said, he was trying to kill everyone here, and then used everyone’s lives to promote his own Practice.
According to Tian Jihong's speculation, the reason why this person held back and did not show up immediately to attack the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce was probably because he wanted to use the latter's help to kill more spiritual beasts, and then show up at the end to reap all the results. It was only because the Thunder Fire Orb in Rokkaeno's hand later disrupted the opponent's plan that the cloaked man appeared in person and prepared to kill everyone in one fell swoop.
Looking around, Tianjihong could also see that many people, including Wang Qing, were mostly aware of the huge crisis. He and the cloaked man were afraid that they would fight to the death today. Now there were several people from the chamber of commerce around him, seeing that the situation was not good, they were ready to step forward to help Tong Bo.
However, Rokkaeno, who had never retreated, now waved his hand to signal the people behind him to stop. He knew in his heart that the strength of the two people in front of him was far greater than that of the people behind him, except for the other two martial arts masters who were similar to Tong Bo. In addition, even if the rest of the people swarm up, they will not have any effect at all. On the contrary, they will be affected by the fight between the two sides, and their own lives will not be saved. The two martial arts masters strictly obeyed Tong Bo's orders and were stationed on the flanks of the team. They also had to keep an eye on the tide of beasts that might launch a counterattack at any time. They had no intention of coming to help. The only ones who can change the situation of the battle now are the two people from the Qingluo Sect who are rushing from behind.
