Ning Qingyun felt a chill in his heart and climbed up the rope without hesitation. It was better to go back to the maze before thinking of other ways!
But soon he realized something was wrong. He had just climbed to the position where he fell, and he couldn't climb any higher. It was as if there was a transparent barrier in the middle, annihilating spiritual energy and black fire. He tried every method. It doesn’t work, I just can’t get through it.
This barrier is similar to a one-way barrier, which can be entered but not exited.
Just when Ning Qingyun was trying to find a way to return to the maze, the "army" walking in the darkness revealed its true appearance.
About two meters tall, with uniform movements, monotonous steps and a little stiffness, they were an army of puppets.
The puppets wearing black armor and helmets came like a tide, endlessly. Each puppet held a sharp spear nearly three meters long in its hand. The puppet's head looked like it was made of stone, and its face was very carved. It was simple, with only two holes cut out to serve as eyes, and all other parts were omitted.
Ning Qingyun didn't know how these puppets locked onto him. He saw the puppets with empty eyes staring at him hanging in mid-air.
Since there is no way to retreat, the only option is to fight.
Ning Qingyun swung the rope in his hand vigorously, crossing to the open space where the two groups of puppets had not yet gathered together. The Ruyi double rings turned into nine and eighteen, attaching the spiritual energy with the annihilation effect to the weapon, and The puppet army is fighting in one place.
The combat effectiveness of the puppets is average. It is not difficult to deal with a single puppet. Soon, puppets continue to fall down and lose their combat effectiveness.
In the early stage of the battle, Ning Qingyun had an absolute advantage. But while fighting, Ning Qingyun's physical strength continued to drain.
The puppet had no sense of pain or consciousness, and had no fear of the death of its companions. Even though an arm and a leg were cut off, it still dragged its spear and killed Ning Qingyun resolutely.
Ning Qingyun even saw that some of the puppets' heads had been chopped off by him, but they still tenaciously maintained their fighting power.
Ning Qingyun's movements of hacking and killing the puppets gradually slowed down, but the army of puppets was still black and endless.
Whenever he was about to be surrounded by black-armored puppets, Ning Qingyun mobilized the black fire in his body and cleared a space around him. As long as these black-armored puppets were contaminated with a little black fire, all that was waiting for them would be... Burn this road.
However, although the black fire is powerful, it is not inexhaustible. The black fire is just a little fire that needs to be nourished by the spiritual energy in the body. Ning Qingyun is already a practitioner at the peak of the Qi Bridge Realm, and the spiritual energy in the body is very abundant, but facing This surging army of puppets is not worth mentioning.
Facing the boundless, seemingly endless army of puppets, Ning Qingyun did not panic. He began to observe carefully and deliberately summarized the rules.
Why do some puppets seem to have lost their fighting ability without much damage, while some puppets have severed arms, legs, or even heads and are still resisting tenaciously?
Gradually, Ning Qingyun discovered that as long as the weak point of the puppet was hit, the puppet would lose its combat effectiveness. Even if there seemed to be no damage on the outside, it would still fall down immediately.
However, the trouble is that the weaknesses of these puppets are not in the same position. Some puppets have a weakness on the chest, some puppets have a weakness on the neck, and some puppets have a weakness on the lower abdominal dantian. The appearance of these puppets looks exactly the same, whether it is There is no difference in equipment size or height. How can we tell the difference?
At the beginning of killing the puppet, Ning Qingyun needed to test the three positions one by one. The long battle quickly drained his physical strength. The weapon in his hand became heavier and heavier, and he could hardly lift his arms. There was even a double image in front of him. When the body is extremely tired, the mental consciousness seems to be floating in the clouds, and the soul is in a particularly clear state. At this time, Ning Qingyun can hit the puppet's weakness every time, which seems to be a strange thing. Intuition, as if subconsciously knowing where the puppet's weaknesses are.
This undoubtedly greatly increased Ning Qingyun's enemy-killing efficiency.
There were several times when Ning Qingyun felt that he would fall down soon. He was stabbed countless times by the spear in the hand of the black-armored puppet. I don’t know whether it was because the protective power of his clothes was particularly strong, or it was the spear in the hand of the black-armored puppet that penetrated him. Poor penetration. In short, Ning Qingyun only felt slight pain and was not fatally injured after being stabbed in the vitals by spears many times.
Ning Qingyun's physical strength was gradually exhausted, but the spiritual energy in his body was still sufficient, so he transformed the Ruyi Double Ring into the third form. With a "ring" sound, the black, white and yellow areas of the ring opened layer by layer, and the ring became The killing range of the three scimitars was instantly expanded three times, and the black fire nourished by spiritual energy spread to each scimitar.
This time, Ning Qingyun accurately controlled the use of black fire, only touching the weak points of the black-armored puppets and leaving. Large areas of black-armored puppets fell down at the same time. Ning Qingyun finally changed from the state of being surrounded to the state of active attack. He cleared The space became larger and larger, and the cave seemed empty again.
But the spiritual energy in Ning Qingyun's body was rapidly losing. He knew that if these black-armored puppets could not be dealt with as soon as possible, he would soon be unable to hold on.
Mechanical killing seems to have become an instinct. He can't even feel the physical fatigue. The double wishful rings on his hands don't seem to be under his control.
Finally, the last black-armored puppet was chopped down to the ground by him.
Ning Qingyun fell to the ground with a plop, falling together with the puppets on the ground. He couldn't even lift a finger now. If there was something that was going to harm him, he would have to kill it by grabbing his neck. This is the way to go.
Ning Qingyun's body was extremely tired, but his spirit was a little excited. He kept recalling the strange intuition he had when he just killed, the kind of strange intuition that could tell the weakness of the black-armored puppet at a glance.
It seems that this underground cave should also be part of the underground palace. Now that I have defeated the black-armored puppet, I wonder what kind of reward I will get?
