Monsters blocked the entire road.
It slowly raised the weapon, but due to the influence of the Dragon Curse, its movements were too slow and it could not capture Gu Qingshan's figure.
Gu Qingshan continued to draw swords around the monster.
His sword was reaching its peak.
The monster made a "hissing" sound from time to time, like the sound of heavy cloth being torn.
Yet the monster remains standing.
"What a small power. Do you want to defeat me with such power?" the monster laughed.
Gu Qingshan did not respond, and the long sword in his hand made three points faster.
The monster faced his sword, strode forward, and roared: "The eulogy is about to end, your death has come!"
Countless illusory images suddenly filled the entire world.
Gu Qingshan saw the dead people all around. These people were arranged in a huge shape, surrounding him, chanting eulogies in unison.
——It seemed that they had started chanting since the moment the battle began, but because they were in another world, Gu Qingshan did not feel it.
It turns out that the monster has been delaying time too!
Gu Qingshan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he felt that his figure was somewhat out of his control.
An illusory figure was flying out of his body.
--What?
They can actually force my soul out?
At the moment of life and death, Gu Qingshan looked at the monster fiercely.
The monster was protected in the center by layers of corpses, chanting loudly: "I rule——"
"Go!" Gu Qingshan shouted sharply.
In the flash of lightning, three figures flew out from behind him.
——The three skulls flew out of the air, passed through all the blocking corpses, and quickly slashed at the monsters with their long swords.
——Twelve hundred swords in an instant!
A giant sword light suddenly formed in the void, directly piercing the monster's body.
Extremely ancient swordsmanship, without cause!
The eulogy in the monster's mouth suddenly stopped.
It froze in place, its body twitching slightly.
In an instant, all the illusory scenes disappeared.
The corpses all looked at Gu Qingshan with resentful eyes, their faces full of unwillingness.
Gu Qingshan put away the skeleton, stepped back a few steps, and looked into the void.
Lines of small firefly characters appeared:
"Your 'Causeless Sword' hit the opponent."
"Because the strength gap between the two sides is too great, the 'Sword of Causelessness' cannot kill the enemy."
"This sword will drain all your power and cause temporary paralysis to the enemy."
"Your soul power has returned to zero."
"Your strength and the source of the underworld have returned to zero."
Gu Qingshan raised his sword to the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his other hand, and sighed.
——We have reached this dead end again.
Why?
Why can't I kill the other person? Instead, they are always almost forced into death by the other party?
"Laura, let's go." He said calmly.
"Okay." Laura responded.
The next moment, Gu Qingshan's figure disappeared from the center of the road.
At this time the monster gradually recovered.
It let out an angry roar and strode up and down the road.
But Gu Qingshan never appeared again.
The monster couldn't help but roar loudly: "No, you can't escape. The entire monastery already knows that a stranger is coming. No matter where you go, you will be greeted by death!"
Tens of meters away behind it, Gu Qingshan was drinking a bottle of secret medicine.
Laura was sitting on his shoulders, holding an umbrella in one hand and a fan in the other, fanning him.
"Thank you for your hard work. You actually fought well just now, but this monster is too strong." Laura encouraged.
Gu Qingshan drank the secret medicine and felt a little better. He said, "I am becoming more and more curious about their power now."
"Then where are we going next?" Laura asked.
"Didn't the knight say before that there is only one place in the entire monastery that provides free food and water? This sentence must imply something, let's go find it." Gu Qingshan said.
"……good."
The two ignored the roaring monster and walked along the road towards the depths of the monastery.
At the end of the road, the road split into several paths leading to many different buildings.
The building closest to the main road towered into the sky, a bit like a cathedral, but its two wooden doors were tightly closed, and it was unknown what was inside.
Gu Qingshan and Laura walked around the cathedral, but couldn't find any other entrance.
"How about we break down the door and go in to take a look." Laura suggested.
"No, have you forgotten that old man? Although the Shelter of All Realms is useful, if the other party sets a trap in advance, we will still be in danger." Gu Qingshan said cautiously.
It was still dark at this time.
In the deep darkness, a low building not far away was dimly lit by fire, and there was a continuous sound of knocking.
Gu Qingshan continued to walk forward with Laura, and soon turned to the building.
The door to the building was also tightly closed, with only a layer of light coming from the windows.
A huge figure could be vaguely seen, hammering something.
Countless screams rose and fell as it hammered.
"Gu Qingshan, are we going in to rescue those people?" Laura asked nervously.
"No, those screams are not the voices of living people." Gu Qingshan said.
"how do you know?"
"Yeah, I know."
The two crossed the building and continued on.
They came to a low spire again.
swish swish——
The sound of digging dirt came from under the steeple.
Gu Qingshan took Laura and quietly went up to take a look.
I saw a few monsters with two horns digging graves.
They threw the exhumed corpses onto a shabby wooden cart. Whenever the wooden cart was full, they would be immediately pulled to the burning building.
Sometimes, when the bodies dug up by these monsters are still intact, they will pick them up and examine them carefully, eat a few bites before throwing them onto the cart.
—There is no doubt that this is the monastery cemetery.
Gu Qingshan took a few glances and then quietly backed away.
The two walked for a while and came to an open square.
It was completely silent, but there were many people and monsters standing there.
They circled the center of the square and kept chanting something, which seemed to be a kind of mantra if you listened closely.
Gu Qingshan looked intently and saw that the center of the square was empty except for a pool of blood.
The blood kept swimming, as if there was life.
This scene was so weird that Gu Qingshan and Laura couldn't help but want to watch it.
The voices of those people chanting became louder and louder. As they chanted, Gu Qingshan suddenly noticed something strange.
——It seems that his body is out of control again.
no.
Can't stay any longer!
Gu Qingshan quietly retreated and left from the edge of the square.
He returned to the main road and stood still, observing the layout of the surrounding buildings. After thinking for a while, he turned to another path and headed towards a more remote part of the monastery.
"Why are we going further and further away?" Laura said worriedly.
"I feel that the place the knight is talking about is not the buildings that are next to each other." Gu Qingshan said.
"But there are so many side roads, why only take this dirt road?" Laura asked again.
"Because other roads are paved with stones, representing a coherent state or action. Only the road under our feet seems to have been stepped on - since it is so different, it must have its reason." Gu Qingshan said.
"You mean, free food and water?" Laura said.
"Maybe." Gu Qingshan said.
The two of them kept walking along the path, and a fog gradually appeared in front of them.
Laura pulled out a cannon barrel and slung it behind her back.
Gu Qingshan glanced at her.
"This is the enhanced version of Brother Pao. It can blow up several worlds." Laura said.
"It's useless, the power on those monsters is very weird - weird and incomprehensible, it probably won't have any effect." Gu Qingshan said.
Laura said: "I'm not greedy either. If I can create some chaos, it will be considered a success."
She sighed again: "Now I finally know how terrifying weird things are. Unfortunately, there are too few weird things in our 900 million-layer world."
"You should be grateful, not regretful." Gu Qingshan said.
The two of them gradually walked into the fog.
Through the fog, the front suddenly became bright.
I saw that this was already a corner of the monastery, with nothing but a few bare trees.
"It seems we have to turn around and go back." Laura said.
Gu Qingshan used his spiritual thoughts to scan, but found nothing.
He pondered for a long time, then walked to a tree and stood still.
"What's wrong?" Laura asked.
Gu Qingshan pointed to the trunk of a tree and showed Laura.
Laura held a flower umbrella in one hand and rested on Gu Qingshan's head with the other, leaning over to look at the tree trunk.
I saw a thin green bud growing out from somewhere on the trunk.
——Although it is only the size of a fingernail, it is the only life in the entire monastery.
The two looked at each other and wandered around a few bare trees.
Laura kept finding various treasures for detection - cards, search devices, wands, gem lenses, treasure hunting dolls, etc., but she didn't notice anything strange.
"Nothing." Laura said regretfully.
Gu Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Put the umbrella away."
"Oh? Oh!" Laura said suddenly.
As soon as she put away the flower umbrella, the effect of the protection of all realms disappeared immediately.
The two figures appeared under the tree.
They stood still for a moment longer.
——Still nothing happened.
"What to do now?" Laura asked.
"I'm a little hungry, why don't we eat something first?" Gu Qingshan suggested.
Laura stared at him with wide beautiful eyes.
Well, Gu Qingshan, how can you eat in such a scary place?
But when you say this, I seem to be hungry too.
"Then let's have something to eat." Laura agreed.
suddenly--
A timid voice sounded from the tree:
"I have free food and water here, do you need it?"
