Zhao Ning did not cast any spells or magic, nor even took out the spiritual weapon. She only relied on her dexterity to move among countless sword blades. She tentatively tried to find the center of the sword killing formation, but the sword blades were densely packed. The degree is uneven and not fixed, which seems to indicate that the formation eye is also wandering.
But Zhao Ning is not impatient. The power of this killing formation is not strong, and the damage is more than just one. She can completely hone her body skills with the help of the sword killing formation.
After about a stick of incense, Zhao Ning went around almost every area in the killing array without touching even a single blade edge, and not even a hair was broken.
At this time, Zhao Ning's eyes were fixed and he had found the core position of the killing formation.
She swayed through the sword blades like the wind, bypassing the dense area and arriving at the sparse sword blades. Then she took a step closer and rushed into the area where the sword blades were suddenly empty. There was no edge and no wind here, maybe It is an area for those who enter the formation to take a breath. It only appears for three breaths at a time, and disappears after three breaths, but...
Zhao Ning suddenly raised his hand, the palm of his hand was filled with spiritual power, and he fainted in an instant. A sword edge was forcibly wrapped around him, and it pierced straight into the core of the vacuum.
Suddenly, the void shook, invisible waves spread out in circles, and the tip of the sword seemed to touch a bit of sharpness, but at this moment, all the murderous intentions in the periphery were forced towards the center, and they were about to be released in an instant. Zhao Ning's ears twitched slightly, and recently Just when the sword edge was about to penetrate even an inch, it suddenly disappeared from the spot.
But all the murderous intentions were already unleashed and the momentum was unstoppable, and all the swords were pierced towards that point of sharpness.
There seemed to be a loud bang in the air, and the edge suddenly exploded. The killing force was extremely powerful, forming a circle and spreading horizontally, instantly clearing all the sword edges around it.
Using the formation's core to self-destruct and destroy the killing formation was unprecedented.
The shattered sword edge turned into countless spiritual lights that scattered in the air, and the entire space became quiet and safe.
In the shadows high in the sky, Zhao Ning slowly floated down, and the spiritual light flickered between his clothes.
As soon as he landed on the ground, he saw a beam of light falling in the middle, a long staircase slowly lowering the bunk, and he seemed to hear the music of the immortal spirit in his ears.
Zhao Ning stepped onto the long steps without hesitation. Until she reached the top of the long steps, what was waiting for her was not the fairyland of Lingshan Mountain.
Instead, it was a huge and ferocious two-headed monster.
Its appearance was similar to that of a dog, but it was surrounded by black smoke. It slowly stood up and was about three to four feet tall. Two demon heads stared at Zhao Ning eagerly, and large swaths of saliva gushed out of its mouth, as if hungry. After many years, I finally waited for it to taste delicious.
It's weird and fierce, but it's just a second-level monster.
Is this the second floor of the Stairway to Heaven?
It was even faster and easier than passing through the first level, but after fighting for a few moves, the move fell far away, when the two-headed demonic beast roared towards him.
With his right hand extended, the Chamoon Sword spun and appeared.
The sword slashed down with a clear light like a saw, cutting through the center of both ends of the monster beast.
The next moment, the monster beast split into two pieces and fell to the ground on both sides.
Chapter 169
Entering the third floor from the second floor, you were caught off guard. You didn’t even see the ladder to the third floor. Only the moment the two-headed monster fell down, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound, it seemed that the entire second floor was gone. It collapsed, and then in the dust and smoke, I felt countless peeping beast eyes around me.
These eyes were full of ferocity and greed. Before the dust and smoke faded away, countless monsters rushed towards Zhao Ning.
Zhao Ning was not afraid. He moved around as if he were on the first floor, more directly than on the first floor. He raised his knife and cut down a monster.
One by one, a monster was kicked away from the left, and a bull-headed monster with long horns stabbed at him from behind from the right.
Divine consciousness formed a barrier behind him in an instant, but the long horn seemed to be able to pierce any defense. It rushed straight at him without any intention of stopping, which made Zhao Ning almost retreat with his back. The journey is not smooth, and we have to constantly eliminate the monsters behind us who seem to be getting a share of the pie.
Zhao Ning stepped back three to four feet, stopped with his right foot, and raised the Chamoon Sword in front of him. Then, the Chamoon Sword divided into seven swords and counterattacked towards the bull-headed monster.
The sword and horn clashed to stop the minotaur, but also restricted Zhao Ning's other movements.
The longer the confrontation lasts, the more disadvantageous it is for Zhao Ning. The surrounding demonic beasts are only shaken by the force of the confrontation. It does not mean that they will not rush over again. On the contrary, once they react, they will attack more violently.
Zhao Ning swirled his left hand with spiritual light, and ancient cloud patterns appeared in his palm.
"force!"
The ancient mysterious lines were instantly blessed on the Moon Sword, and the seven long swords were transformed into one, and they buzzed at the same time. The long swords bloomed with light, and the center of the seven swords gathered together to form a more powerful sword. The sword shadow, as Zhao Ning rushed forward, struck out, breaking through the confrontation between the sword and the horn, until it penetrated into the top of the monster's skull.
The demonic beasts that were shaken around him had once again pounced on him. Zhao Ning turned slightly sideways and raised the solid moon sword upwards. The huge bull-headed monster instantly lifted off the ground and was thrown out with force, knocking out all the demons on the left. All the charging monsters were crushed to the ground.
But Zhao Ning didn't get a chance to breathe. She was already fighting among the monster beasts on the other side with the Moon Sword.
The shadow of Chayue Sword is like an afterimage. Every time the shadow of the sword falls on the monster, it is a bloody wound. The wound is six or seven inches deep. The sword is ruthless and shows no mercy.
As they were fighting among the monster beasts like this, the mist that diffused in the dim space seemed to be tainted with a trace of blood, the air seemed to be filled with a fishy sweet smell, and the feet were covered with monster beast corpses and blood.
But Zhao Ning's body was as clean as new, without a trace of blood, and there was no trace of being torn and scratched by monsters on his clothes.
This cleanup did not take long, but within half an hour, only the last monster in front of Zhao Ning was left. This monster did not look strong, it looked like a large rabbit, and was half the size of Zhao Ning. Tall, but strangely it is holding a lantern on its front paws.
When Zhao Ning approached, it showed extraordinary jumping ability and rushed to high altitude in an instant. Then the lantern in its hand burst out with light, and then hundreds of fireballs rushed down towards Zhao Ning, like raindrops. But there was a huge explosion when it landed.
Yunsi Qianhuan's cloak was wrapped around her body, and her condensed figure disappeared within the area covered by the fireball. The rabbit monster bounced into the high altitude, but it could only last for half a breath, and then fell. The moment the rabbit monster had not landed firmly on the ground. , Zhao Ning suddenly appeared behind the rabbit monster, holding the Chamoon Sword with both hands, aiming the tip of the sword at the rabbit monster's head to stab it.
Just a fraction of a second away from the back of the head, the lantern in his hand suddenly glowed with light. The light spread out instantly, forming a circle of defense around the rabbit monster, and the Moon Moon Sword was frozen.
At this moment, the rabbit monster twisted its body, staring at Zhao Ning with its two red eyes. It raised the lantern, as if it was about to summon countless fireballs again.
Unexpectedly, the Chayue Sword lifted out the sword flower, and a silver needle quietly emerged from the sword flower until it broke through the rabbit monster's defense and pierced the center of its brow where the monster power was concentrated.
The moment it was pierced, I could see the phantom of the demon pill spinning, and then exploded violently. The demonic power overflowed from the body of the rabbit monster, and blood seeped out from its pores. Then it fell stiffly and fell. The moment it hit the ground, it turned into countless spiritual lights and dissipated. But the lantern in its hand did not disappear.
Zhao Ning stretched out her hand to catch it, and the lantern fell into Zhao Ning's hand, but she saw that the object was a spiritual weapon, not a weapon transformed by the power of a monster.
This spiritual weapon belongs to fire and has at most two levels. It looks like an ordinary red lantern for ordinary people, but surprisingly, there seems to be a circle of words engraved on the surface of the red lantern.
But before Zhao Ning could see clearly what the words said, Zhao Ning felt that the surroundings were filled with peeping and killing intent again just like when she first entered the third floor.
Zhao Ning's eyes narrowed, and she flew into the air with the wind. She saw several demonic beasts rushing towards where she was just standing. They collided heavily with each other because of Zhao Ning's sudden disappearance, but they didn't feel any wailing or anger at each other. , but raised his ugly and fierce head again and stared at Zhao Ning in the air.
Perhaps in mid-air, Zhao Ning could see more clearly that a group of monster beasts appeared again on the third floor, and the number was larger than before.
Zhao Ning frowned slightly, not thinking that his perception after killing the rabbit monster was wrong, but that this group of monsters was new.
Quiet and unexpected.
But Zhao Ning did not become afraid because of this. She held a lantern in her hand and all the monster beasts had found their position. Many of them even directly stepped on the wind and flew up into the air, injecting spiritual power into the lantern. As soon as the light appeared in the sky, countless firelights were seen. Whether it was the monster flying in the air or the monster beast roaring on the ground, their bodies were all stained with flames. The firelight was lingering, and a stench lingered in the foggy space.
Zhao Ning's figure swayed, leaving only an afterimage walking in the firelight.
Even the monster in the air couldn't suppress the flames that burst out of its body and fell to the ground and rolled over. The fire covered the entire space.
The wind blowing around the body seemed to give the fire a boost, making the fire raging with no sign of extinguishing.
She was flying in the air, picking up the lantern in her hand perfectly and reading the words on the lantern.
It was a final book written in blood, and every line was filled with despair.
"For eighty years of my life, I was punished to the nine-level trial of the Green Wood Pagoda because I unintentionally disturbed the island owner. However, I didn't want to be useless on the third level for the rest of my life. I don't know if future generations can re-enter, so I leave this unforgettable sentence. Reminder, don’t be obsessed with fighting, the beast is endless and cannot be defeated without fighting.”
The text became more and more scrawled towards the end, and a bloody handprint was printed on the lantern, covering the text unclearly.
But fortunately, the key points can be roughly seen in the speculation.
Zhao Ning paused for a moment, and caught several pieces of information in these few sentences. This fake Jianmu was really not Jianmu, but something called the Nine-story Trial Green Wood Pagoda. Zhao Ning had never heard of this. Something, this looks like a trial place set up by a certain sect to punish disciples.
But where did Yang Shen Tianzun get this?
But these are not what need to be thought about now. The most important thing is that another message tells Zhao Ning that the monsters in this third level are endless and can't be killed.
Sure enough, after all the monster beasts on the ground were burned out, a new group of monster beasts appeared silently. This time Zhao Ning almost didn't take his eyes off the ground, and saw that some of these monster beasts crawled out from the ground, and some Some walked out of the shadows shaking their heads, and some simply appeared suddenly, but this also showed that there was no way to find a way to break through the third level from the way they came out.
It is no wonder why this ancestor was trapped on the third floor his whole life, and those who wanted to break through the ninth floor of the "Ladder to Heaven" in the Yangshen Realm could only reach the third floor.
The new monster jumped into the air, and Zhao Ning's figure only turned slightly before appearing behind the monster. As soon as the lantern in his hand moved, the firelight hit the monster's back. The monster was in pain and wanted to turn back for a moment. In retaliation, the monster beast group was forcibly thrown to the ground by a huge force. It became the ignition point of the fire, and another burst of fire spread.
Zhao's gaze has not dropped, and he is still reading the words on the lantern.
The words in this must-have book have faded, and the bloodstains have long been blackened. With only a brief estimate, I guessed that it must not have been left within three thousand years, and I am afraid it was far longer than three thousand years.
"Is this something Ye Feng brought from Kyushu specifically to suppress evil spirits?"
Zhao Ning murmured in her heart.
He couldn't find the answer for a while, but at this moment, fire wind rushed behind him, and a monster beast wrapped in flames came sneaking up on him.
Zhao Ning almost didn't use his hands, but just ducked to avoid it. The monster couldn't make a pounce, and the whole beast pounced downwards.
Although it was only one blow, it also clearly showed that this wave of monsters was more adaptable to fire than the previous wave of monsters. It was very likely that after a few more waves, these monsters would be able to attack without fear of spiritual fire.
Although Zhao Ning does not rely on the lantern weapon, the attacks issued by the lantern weapon can be adapted by these monster beasts. With the sword intent of the Moon Sword and the whip wind of the Dragon Roar Whip, can they also be able to use it after a few waves? He quickly adapted to it, and then became stronger and stronger. In the end, Zhao Ning no longer had any back moves to resist.
At this moment, Zhao Ning finally felt the fear in this book.
When this wave of monsters was swallowed up by the fire and a new wave of monsters emerged, Zhao Ning did not attack with the lantern weapon anymore. He directly threw the lantern weapon into the Palace of Silent Spirits and did not take out other magic weapons. Just relying on the ghostly figure to wander among the monster beasts, the monster beasts are conscious, which is much more difficult than randomly attacking the sword. Although it is more difficult, it does not make Zhao Ning feel unable to resist.
She just forced down the speed of the monster beasts' improvement, and while wandering and dodging, she thought about where these monster beasts came from and where the key to the third level lies.
I don’t know how long it took, but this group of monster beasts seemed to never know how tired they were, chasing Zhao Ning for a while. Although Zhao Ning was a little exhausted, most of the time he was testing his body skills and dodges, but he was still really good at it. Yuan is abundant.
Until Zhao Ning was able to dodge like a fish out of water among the monsters, a ray of light suddenly appeared in front of him. The brilliance unfolded into a circle of scrolls, and then hovered in the half-space. All kinds of strange words were densely written on it. He just stared at it. At one glance, it seems that you can see the ferocious beasts running in the ancient wilderness, and at the next glance, you can feel the huge shadow-like monster on the seabed. There is something magical about every glance, and it seems that you can see the shadow of the ancient monster at every glance.
Great demon document.
At that time, he was only in the Qi refining stage. He just opened the Great Demon Document and felt a sense of oppression. Zhao Ning had no choice but not to go deep. But now, Zhao Ning has reached the foundation building stage and has successfully killed the mortal. His cultivation is not what it used to be. For example, although at first glance, there is still a feeling of oppression by wild beasts, but it is not helpless.
She was wandering among the monsters while searching for a solution to the big monster's document.
Time passed by slowly, and Zhao Ning learned the first word in the big demon document. It seemed to be the cry of a demon beast, and it seemed to be the intimidation of a high-level demon beast.
"snort."
There was just a nasal sound, and in an instant, the entire third-level monsters stopped moving and all crawled on the ground. The effect was simply unexpected.
Zhao Ning knew that monsters were more particular about blood inheritance than humans. Their blood and bone marrow were engraved with memories of ancient times, and they had deep fear and surrender to high-level monsters.
But Zhao Ning is just a newly learned monster with limited deterrence. Several demonic beasts with strong demonic power only stopped for a moment, and then pounced on them even more angrily and violently. However, only a few of them had no impact on Zhao Ning. It can be easily dealt with.
She then studied the Great Demon Document more deeply. She walked around with her eyes wandering, as if she could feel different feelings conveyed in the Great Demon Document from different angles. Suddenly, she saw a strange word.
With just one glance, I saw the diffuse mist. The mist kept transforming into monster beasts. They seemed real but insubstantial. Many monster beasts were entangled together and squeezing together. There were constantly monster beast heads, front paws, hind legs, The tails stretched out into the mist one after another, and were swallowed back by the rolling mist.
Zhao Ning could not use a single word to describe this big demon script. If he were to describe it, he would use "demon spirit mist" to describe it, which seemed more appropriate.
She moved and stopped in the center of the Great Demon's Scroll, looking across the scroll at the mist that had been permeating but ignored from beginning to end.
Because Zhao Ning stopped, the attacking monsters instantly found a stable attack point and roared towards Zhao Ning again.
She made no move. As the monster approached inch by inch, her eyes fell back on the "demon spirit mist" described in the great monster article.
"It's fog, is it fog?"
Zhao Ning murmured, and when the monster rushed within half a foot, he raised his eyes and heard another "hum". Along with the ancient lines carved in the sky by the big monster, the monster stopped for half a breath, and Zhao Ning The lantern spiritual weapon appeared in her hand. She flicked her finger to extinguish the fire in the lantern. When these monsters woke up from the shock and rage, she suddenly raised the lantern in her hand.
