"Is this the Ji Yao Suppression Killing Sword Formation?"
Shi Jiu looked at the words "Suppress and Kill" on the stone platform in surprise, and then looked around again at the long swords on several stone platforms, realizing that they looked very much like the famous ancient killing formation.
The Ji Yao Suppressing Sword Formation is a great formation handed down from ancient times. It is famous for its powerful attack power. Anyone who is trapped by this formation will hate it even if it is strong in the soul realm.
"Why is there an ancient killing array here?" Shi Jiu became nervous instantly.
"Wait, something seems to be wrong again." While nervous, Shi Jiu noticed something different.
Although there are also nine long swords here, which is consistent with the number of swords in the Jiuyao Suppressing Sword Formation recorded in the book, they lack the unique killing aura of the sword formation and instead convey a sense of decay.
"Is it because time has passed so long that only the nine swords on the surface are left in the sword array, and the inner core essence has completely disappeared?" Shi Jiu was surprised and uncertain.
Regarding the Jiyao Town Killing Sword Formation, Shi Jiu had only seen some introductions from Chang Lin’s Experience given by Jin Yuner, but had never actually seen it. Of course, the introduction in Chang Lin’s Experience was also very simple and did not involve specific arrangements. Formation and control. In fact, not only the Ji Yao Suppression Sword Formation, but also the real formation methods and control of such large formations handed down from ancient times are only in the hands of very few people, and ordinary people and forces have no access to them at all.
Therefore, Shi Jiu was not sure that the nine stone platforms in front of him and the long swords on the stone platforms were the extremely famous formation in ancient times.
After a moment of doubt, Shi Jiu decided to continue moving towards the passage ahead. The top priority was to find a way to leave here as soon as possible, and nothing else mattered.
But just when he turned around and was about to continue moving forward, the long sword in his hand accidentally touched the long sword on the stone platform. A faint sword chant sounded, and then the long swords on the eight surrounding stone platforms all made the same sound. The crisp sword chant.
"what happened?"
Shi Jiu was startled, stopped quickly, and then looked warily at the surrounding stone platforms.
The sound of the sword chant only lasted for a while and disappeared soon, but the strange thing was that the long sword on the stone platform quickly decayed and turned into a pile of debris the moment the sword chant disappeared, which made Shi Jiu a little stunned.
Before he could react, the stone platform in the middle suddenly split into four petals with a "click", and a wisp of green smoke floated out and floated above the stone platform. Shi Jiu subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Why did the stone platform break? Just because I accidentally touched it?"
Shi Jiu didn't believe that his unintentional touch would cause the damage to the stone platform and the long sword of what was suspected to be the Jiyao Sword Killing Array, but the sight in front of him made him unable to find any other reason.
Just as he was wondering, the green smoke above the suspended stone platform changed significantly. The color gradually changed from green to dark brown, and the shape also changed from a ball of gas to first lengthening and widening, and then forming a humanoid shape.
"not good!"
Shi Jiu secretly screamed in his heart and immediately distanced himself from the human-shaped air ball in front of him.
At this time, Shi Jiu also realized that his unintentional act had accidentally released some unknown existence, and it seemed that that thing might not be friendly, otherwise it would not have been suppressed in the stone platform by the suspected Ji Yao Suppression Sword Formation.
The next second, the dark brown gas solidified into a humanoid creature, and then the other person opened his eyes and looked at Shi Jiu not far away, and showed a sly smile.
Seeing the obviously malicious smile thrown at him, Shi Jiu's heart suddenly sank, and his expression quickly became serious.
"Little guy, did you save me?"
On the opposite side, the humanoid creature asked actively, but the smile on its face became more playful. This made Shi Jiu very uncomfortable and stared at the other person closely.
"Haha, it's okay if you don't answer. Now that I'm out of trouble, it's time to leave here, but before that, I need to borrow something from you." The humanoid creature smiled.
"what?"
"It's your body! I can't leave the restriction here in this state. I have to have a real entity. Don't worry, little guy, I will treat your skin well and I won't let you have any regrets." The humanoid smiled again.
"Sure enough, you know you have bad intentions!" After hearing what the other party said, Shi Jiu cursed secretly in his heart, and then quickly backed away.
"Little guy, you can't escape. Although my strength has been greatly reduced, I can still handle you, a young monk in the Soul Realm." The humanoid creature said and walked towards Shi Jiu, not taking him seriously at all. thing.
Shi Jiu said nothing. While retreating, he clenched the long knife in his hand.
At this time, the aura exuded by the other party far exceeded his own, reaching the peak of the soul realm.
"Don't give up, obediently offer your body, this way you will suffer less, haha."
After saying that, the humanoid creature disappeared from the spot without any warning, and the next second it appeared behind Shi Jiu, and then slapped it down with a palm.
Shi Jiu's eyes failed to follow him for a moment, and he lost the trace of the other party. But fortunately, he activated his spiritual consciousness in advance and noticed that the other party appeared behind him. He directly backhanded him and slashed with his sword. Unfortunately, it failed and nothing happened. Not touched.
"I didn't expect that you actually opened up your spiritual consciousness. It's really good. I want to fix your body even more!"
The voice of the humanoid creature came from the side, and there was an added surprise in the words.
Just hearing it in Shi Jiu's ears added a hint of disgust.
"Haha, my time is precious. I don't want to play with you anymore. I'll give you your body."
The humanoid creature disappeared from the spot again, and then appeared on the side of Shi Jiu's body.
Shi Jiu didn't hesitate, and also slashed directly at the place where the humanoid creature showed its body.
This time Shi Jiu's swing of the knife did not miss, but it did not hit the opponent either. Instead, the humanoid creature directly grabbed the blade with one hand and stopped an inch in front of the opponent, unable to move forward any further.
When the knife was intercepted, Shi Jiu immediately released his right hand holding the rear part of the knife, then quickly turned around, pulled the handle of the knife with his left hand, and punched the humanoid creature's chest with his right hand. At the same time, his right hand was glowing with blood. There was a trace of black light, and little arcs flashed in the black light.
Seeing the opponent's fist coming, the humanoid creature didn't care. The left hand that had not been used before suddenly appeared and hit Shi Jiu's right fist appropriately.
"The power is okay, but it's a pity that it's useless to me - huh? This is... the power of law? And lightning?!"
The face of the humanoid creature, who was so confident just a moment ago, changed slightly. The strange feeling coming from his left hand made him look down unconsciously. He saw that black color quickly appeared in the palm of his left hand, with a tendency to spread upwards rapidly. And there are some flashes of lightning in it.
When Shi Jiu saw that his black light fist did not cause any damage to the opponent, he quickly retreated, keeping a certain distance from the humanoid creature, and looked at the opponent with an unusually solemn expression.
"Little guy, you really surprised me a lot. You even realized a hint of the dark law. I'm even more interested in you."
The humanoid creature swung it hard in front of Shi Jiu's face, and the black veins attached to his left hand were blown away. Then he clapped his hands and continued: "Okay, little guy, I don't have time to waste time with you here. Be me." carrier."
After saying that, the humanoid creature waved its hand, and several long swords that had been broken into pieces floated in the air, and then merged together at high speed, and with a deep sword sound, the outer pieces of debris quickly fell off, revealing the inside. A brand new long sword.
The long sword gleamed with cold light, and the previous rotten aura had long since disappeared. Instead, it exuded a sharp and boundless aura and a terrifying fear.
"Little guy, give up your resistance, otherwise I may leave something bad on you." The humanoid creature laughed mockingly, and the new long sword automatically flew in front of him. The point pointed directly at Shi Jiu not far away.
Shi Jiu didn't answer. He held the long knife in his hand tighter and retreated slowly.
"That's ridiculous, can you escape?"
The humanoid creature saw Shi Jiu's intention to escape, and waved his hand directly. After the sharp sword sound, the long sword in front of him instantly stabbed Shi Jiu who was retreating. Because of the speed, the sword flew past There was a series of sonic booms.
Shi Jiu immediately slashed the long sword in his hand at the incoming sword with all his strength. Although the speed was a bit slow, luckily he caught up in time.
"Ding!"
The long knife hit the second half of the opponent's blade, instantly changing the opponent's direction, but the powerful force from the sword also fed back to Shi Jiu at the same time, shaking him back repeatedly.
"The response is quite sensitive, but I just don't know how long you can last."
The humanoid creature is not angry but happy. The better Shi Jiu performs, the happier he is, which means the other person's body is more valuable. Once he gets it and manages it properly, it is very likely to grow to a very high level, even beyond the soul realm. There is also great hope.
Missing a hit, the humanoid creature continued to direct its long sword to attack Shi Jiu in the air. At the same time, it sat cross-legged on the stone platform on one side, with an expression on its face full of teasing.
On the other side, Shi Jiu was struggling to resist the sword's offensive.
Because the speed of the long sword was too fast, it was difficult for Shi Jiu's eyes to keep up. Fortunately, he had divine consciousness to monitor him without any blind spots, and the movements of his hands were not slow, so he could barely maintain a stalemate.
But this is only temporary. Over time, defeat will be a matter of time. The humanoid creature also sees this, so it does not come in person.
"I have to find a way. If this continues, I will definitely lose!"
While Shi Jiu struggled to resist the attack of the long sword, he carefully observed the movement of the long sword.
The speed of the long sword was very fast, surpassing Shi Jiu's dynamic observation vision, but under the all-round surveillance of divine consciousness, it was still nowhere to be found.
After a few minutes of stalemate, Shi Jiu suddenly thought of something.
"Wait a minute, how is this long sword controlled by that guy? Is it flying with the sword? If that's the case, it must be controlled by soul power - yes, as long as the control of the opponent's soul power is broken, everything will be invincible. Self-destruction!"
A trace of fire appeared in Shi Jiu's eyes, and he then used all his strength to sweep his spiritual consciousness towards the attacking sword. As long as he found the part where the opponent's soul power combined with the sword and destroyed it, the crisis would be resolved.
"I found it, it's indeed at the hilt of the sword!"
Soon, Shi Jiu discovered the connection between the opponent's soul power at the hilt of the long sword, and all that was left was how to destroy it.
The humanoid creature was very arrogant and did not expect Shi Jiu to be able to crack his move, so he did not hide and protect the joint where his soul power controlled the long sword. This also created the conditions for Shi Jiu to break this move.
Shi Jiu held a sword in his right hand to fight against the incoming sword, while his left hand secretly formed a seal with one hand, and an exquisite Dream Heart Lotus quietly appeared.
After a flash, Shi Jiu hid behind a boulder.
"Hiding behind the boulder, do you think it's okay? Break it for me!"
Under the command of the humanoid creature, the long sword pierced the boulder. The broken stones flew everywhere, and dust filled the air for a while, which also slowed down the speed of the long sword.
"It's now!"
Shi Jiu did not hesitate, flicked his left hand, and a delicate lotus flower emitting colorful brilliance flew silently to the hilt of the long sword, then covered it and melted quickly. In an instant, the long sword stopped moving forward and settled. In mid-air.
"Huh? What's going on?" The humanoid creature suddenly stood up and looked towards the dusty front. At this moment, he lost control of the long sword, which made him feel incredible.
