Cheng Ling smiled bitterly in his heart and said: "It seems that the Netherworld is not a paradise, so it will be more difficult for us to return to the fairyland."
Hu Yue explained: "Master, there is no need to worry. Although there is turmoil in the Netherworld, it may be an opportunity for you. When your strength recovers, you can supplement and repair the Netherworld Secret Record by killing these ghosts. the power of."
Cheng Ling was stunned and thoughtful. Before, he had clearly felt that the blood moon was filled with a violent netherworld power, but it was extremely mixed. There was also substantial hostility, fierceness, and resentment in it, which was not suitable for absorbing at all.
But all this obviously couldn't stop those fierce ghosts. They obviously regarded the power of the blood moon as the best way to gain power. In this way, as long as these ghosts are killed and the power from them is taken away, the Netherworld Record may be restored.
At this time, when Hu Yue came out to verify it, Cheng Ling was immediately convinced of this idea.
"In my memory, the Blood Moon is the best time for the Nether Emperor to obtain the power of the Netherworld. They can rush up to the sky and refine the power of the Netherworld in the entire blood moon. In that case, all the creatures in the Netherworld will I’m afraid everyone will be grateful to you.”
Cheng Ling smacked his tongue, refining the entire Blood Moon. He didn't have such a crazy idea.
In the past half an hour, the bronze coffin was closed again in the sky, and a dozen ghosts carried the coffin, swaying, walking in the dark night, and disappeared.
At this point, Lotte and others all secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions became much more relaxed.
"Brother Cheng, that was just a ghost wandering around. It is very common in the Bloody Basin. As long as you don't disturb them, there is usually no danger. Didn't it scare you?" Cui Yiyi came to Cheng Ling's side with light steps and said with a smile.
Cheng Ling shook his head and said, "I'm just curious. The moon in the netherworld is completely different from the human world."
"Actually, it was the same before." Cui Yiyi said in a low voice, "In recent years, the number of wronged souls and ghosts in the city has suddenly increased. Thousands of wronged souls appear every day. Their resentment and hostility cannot be resolved, so they are killed. The moon was swallowed up."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh: "There is nothing we can do about it. The great venerable Ksitigarbha who controlled the City of Wasted Death suddenly disappeared, causing chaos in the City of Wasted Death. The evil spirits and ghosts could not be transcended. More and more people gathered, and they began to fight for It’s a disaster for the entire Netherworld.”
Sure enough, something happened in the City of Wasted Death! Cheng Ling thought of Hu Yue's previous speculation and couldn't help frowning: "Don't the big shots in the Netherworld care?"
Cui Yiyi shook his head and said: "Those who want to control are not strong enough, and those who are strong only know how to fight for power and compete with each other. How can they care about the life and death of the creatures in the Netherworld! Besides, there are too many wronged souls and evil ghosts, and the Six Dao Division of the Underworld is simply too busy."
At this moment, Cheng Ling suddenly felt a flutter in his heart without any warning. The fighting instinct honed over many years made him subconsciously jump up and rush towards Cui Huayi next to him.
Cui Yiyi felt her vision go dark. Before she could react, Cheng Ling hugged her body and dodged to one side. On the way, she knocked down a large tree where several people were hugging each other.
This sudden change frightened her into screaming.
laugh!
A wisp of silvery sword light seemed to come out of thin air, grazing her temples in a flash, leaving a trace of blood as thin as a hair.
There was a pop, and the next moment, she felt like the world was spinning and her whole body was rolling on the ground.
Cheng Ling's reaction was extremely fast, like lightning. From the moment he noticed the slightest throb, he subconsciously took action. If his strength had not been restored, this one move would have been enough to teleport tens of thousands of miles away with Cui Yiyi.
Unfortunately, his immortal energy has only recovered 50% now, and his physical body has just recovered. He can only hug Cui Yiyi in an awkward manner and break down large trees to dodge this unexpected attack.
"snort!"
A cold snort suddenly sounded in the dense forest, erratic.
At this time, Lotte and other guards also realized that something was wrong and roared, seeming to have taken action.
Unfortunately, all of this made Cheng Ling feel insecure. On the contrary, the sense of danger in his heart became stronger and stronger, stimulating the hair on his body to stand on end.
Because until now, that aura like a gleam on his back was still locked on him.
Buzz~!
The sound of the low, thin sword light breaking through the air like a gnat sounded again.
Without thinking, Cheng Ling made a bow and stabbed the void in front of him with the dragon feather sword in his hand. In the empty void, a black shadow suddenly appeared, and Cheng Ling's long sword happened to be pointed at the opponent. of the throat.
It felt like a prophet, as if he had already anticipated the assassin's whereabouts and where he would appear, and Cheng Ling's sword was like waiting for a rabbit to hit the opponent's vital point with a single finger, thus Indirectly disrupting the opponent's offensive.
boom!
A sharp sound broke through the air, passing by the side of Cheng Ling's cheek, and punching a finger-thick hole in the ground behind it, which was bottomless.
From the beginning to the end, Cheng Ling remained calm and did not even blink. This was the reason why he had bowed his body before and had already accurately captured the trajectory of the opponent's sword light.
"Hey!" The assassin seemed extremely surprised, but his reaction was also very fast. His figure flashed and he came towards Cheng Ling from another direction to kill again.
This time, Cheng Ling did not counterattack at all. Instead, he hugged Cui Yiyi and violently retreated backwards, completely ignoring the extremely dangerous sword light approaching from behind.
clang!
A deafening crash sounded behind Cheng Ling.
At this point, Cheng Ling stopped, turned around and saw that Lotte was already fighting with the assassin.
From the beginning to the end, his expression was as calm as ice, and his actions were crisp and neat, without any sloppiness. Every move had a sense of uncertainty, but he was not embarrassed at all.
Although his strength has not been restored, his terrifying fighting consciousness and swordsmanship level are far beyond those of ordinary people. How could he be easily succeeded by an assassin?
"It's okay. Open your eyes." Cheng Ling squinted his eyes and looked at the battle situation, knowing clearly that it would be difficult for the assassin to succeed again.
At this time, Cui Yiyi was so frightened by this sudden scene that she turned pale. She didn't realize that she was pressing her petite body tightly against Cheng Ling like an octopus. Only the body temperature from her body could keep her safe. feel......
This is a swordsman shrouded in black, whose cultivation is almost at the early stage of the Immortal King. The sword in his hand is extremely long and narrow, as slender as a knuckle, pitch black, and its power is like a poisonous snake spitting out a message. He only pursues a fast, accurate, ruthless, erratic, and unparalleled assassination.
This fighting style generally does not cause large-scale damage, but if it is used to assassinate an opponent, it is enough to kill with one blow.
However, it is precisely because of this that Cheng Lingfang can rely on his super high combat awareness to predict the enemy in advance and avoid the opponent's attack without any danger. Otherwise, once some sword energy spreads from the opponent's sword force, it will be enough to injure him.
Lotte was also a swordsman, but he was embarrassed by this swordsman in black and was dwarfed by him. As for the guards who were only at the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal stage, they were of no help at all, and their expressions were extremely different.
"Brother Cheng, help Uncle Letian!"
Cui Yiyi said in a low voice. She was still lying on Cheng Ling's body, revealing only a childish little face, pale with a hint of worry.
"Don't worry, it's okay." Cheng Ling patted the girl on the shoulder and comforted her.
Clang, clang, clang!
Just as Cheng Ling had guessed, the swordsman in black suddenly thrust out several swords, knocking Lotte back. He then dodged and easily escaped from the battle circle.
"Next time, you won't be so lucky!" The swordsman in black turned around and glanced at where Cheng Ling was. His figure flashed, tearing through the void like a flash of black lightning, and disappeared.
Plop!
Lotte couldn't help but sat down on the ground, breathing heavily for a few breaths. On that old-fashioned and stern face, a touch of throbbing like the aftermath of a disaster could not be suppressed, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Commander Le, are you okay?"
"Uncle Lotte!"
With a crash, Cui Yiyi and a group of guards rushed forward!
Seeing this, Cheng Ling looked at the place where the black-clothed assassin disappeared, thinking thoughtfully. If it weren't for his own existence, he would have succeeded long ago.
And to be able to send an assassin in the Immortal King stage to hunt down Cui Yiyi, this girl's identity is probably extremely complicated.
"Are you warning yourself?" Cheng Ling knew that the glance the swordsman in black gave him before leaving just now was aimed at him, but he didn't take it seriously.
If we meet again next time, his strength will not be as weak as now!
"Who is that person?" Cheng Ling stepped forward and asked.
"He is the Phantom! He is a mysterious assassin who is now famous in the Nether World. His assassination skills are extremely powerful and there are few opponents. Countless masters have died under his sword. Even monks in the Immortal Emperor Stage have assassinated , which shocked the world.”
"The most terrifying thing about him is that he has a unique set of concealment skills. He often cannot be found until the sword comes in front of him. It is said that if you want to ask the Phantom to take action, you need to pay a huge price. Once you accept the task, you only need to be He never missed the target he set his sights on."
Speaking of this, Letian couldn't help but look up at Cheng Ling, with a strange look on his face. Even the eyes of the guards looking at him were full of weird and complicated colors.
Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the assassin Phantom, who had never failed before, collapsed in his hands. This time, it was no longer a matter of simply destroying his mission, even he had to be included in the assassination list.
Letian coughed dryly and saluted solemnly: "Thank you so much this time, brother Cheng Ling!"
Phantom's sneak attack came so suddenly that he was not sure whether he could detect the attack just now. However, Cheng Ling actually protected Cui Yiyi and avoided Phantom's sure-fire sword!
This shocked him, but he was also a little unsure, because Cheng Ling's aura seemed to be at the level of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal. It was hard to tell whether he was lucky or quick to react.
Cheng Ling smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's just a fluke."
Letian nodded. He also suspected that this was luck, but the look he looked at Cheng Ling had become much calmer, without the vigilance and vigilance before.
