As Linghu Yuan spoke, he suddenly took action and poked Liu Mu's chest with one finger. He suddenly felt that his energy and blood were stagnant and he could not move. The master pressed his palms against his back, and two warm currents poured into his body like water bursting from a dam. He felt that his blood was surging like a tide, as if he had absorbed infinite power and was about to burst out of his body at any time.
Yun Yi let out a cry, as if a sharp blade was piercing his body.
After a moment, Linghu Yuan fell softly. Yun Yi immediately stepped forward to support him and said sadly: "You passed on your life's skills to him, as if you gave up your life. Why bother?"
With his six eyes now able to move, he quickly came over and held Linghu Yuan's hand, "I'm afraid I can't afford your kindness!"
Linghu Yuan's breath was weak, but he still sat upright stubbornly. He waved Yun Yi aside, "Sir, with my century-old cultivation, my skill has greatly increased, but there is still a key link needed to split the cliff. I It's ready for you!" As he said that, he took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it to Liu Mu. The six eyes were opened, and there was a pill the size of a pigeon egg inside.
"I have collected fairy things from this square inch of land for hundreds of years and condensed them into this pill. Now I give it to Sir. The method used is quite unique..." He whispered in Liumu's ear, Liumu's expression was gloomy. The weather is uncertain.
"I wanted to take this pill for my husband, but I don't have the qualifications. I might destroy the fairy. The rest is up to you!"
"However, I am afraid that I am incompetent and will live up to your expectations, so please take back everything!"
The master smiled bitterly and said: "It's too late for you to regret it! I was seriously injured and lost all my power. I will die soon! The only thing I ask for is that you find something for me after you get out of trouble. You must remember this place..."
He whispered into Liumu's ear again, and then suddenly fell to the ground and died. Six eyes kept calling, tears streaming down his face. Yun Yi's face was livid, and he had obviously taken the death of his master onto him.
"My Lord risked his life for you? If you betray him, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!" He took out a jade pendant from his arms and chanted the incantation, and the crystal jade pendant turned blood red.
"My Lord's soul is attached to the jade pendant. You must wear it by your side at all times. After fulfilling my Lord's wish, you must give him a good salvation and let him rest in peace!"
Liumu left, and the cave was extremely silent. Yun Yi hugged his master's body and suddenly burst into tears.
"Although it was just a show, my heart still hurt the moment the flying knife pierced your chest. I hope you are right, and I will risk your life for our common future. I hope I can still follow you in the next life. The left and right..."
As dusk falls, Liumu returns to Qiyue City. The streets are deserted and the wind is whispering. At a corner, Ningshuang walks out, still with a cold and resentful expression.
"How is the situation in the city?" Liumu asked.
"People are panicked, and most people fled to the mountains for refuge..." Ningshuang finished speaking briefly and asked Liu Mu.
Liumu smiled bitterly: "There is a way, but it's difficult to reach the sky!"
Ningshuang sneered: "This is not unexpected. Only a foolish person like me will believe in you and believe that you can defeat the 'ghost' and split the cliff!"
There was a long silence, and Ningshuang sighed: "Sometimes I even think that being killed by the 'ghost' and being freed would be a kind of happiness!"
From her wonderful eyes, Liu Ming saw a trace of despair and sadness, and he felt a little pain in his heart, "I will protect you even if I risk my life!"
Something bright suddenly came into Ningshuang's eyes, "Muyang is dead, Luo Lei is dead too, I don't know what else I can do?"
At this moment, a ray of white light passed by like a breeze, and the "heavenly wood" behind the six eyes flew out like lightning, and it quickly crossed paths with the white shadow, dazzling the eyes. In just a few days, his sword control skills improved to a higher level, his offense and defense were as smooth as clouds and water, and he was not defeated in front of the "ghost".
After struggling for more than ten moves, "Ghost" dodged and pounced on Ningshuang. Apparently Liumu, an old monster who couldn't be killed, had made him lose interest. Ningshuang didn't run away or even move, a trace of desperate sadness flashed across her eyes.
Liumu Jiyu's "Tianmu" blitzed the back of "Ghost" into the empty space, hoping to encircle Wei and save Zhao and help Ningshuang relieve the siege. "Ghost" didn't look back. His body-protecting Qi was very strong and instantly deflected away the "Third Eye". The knife in his hand did not change its path and pierced Ningshuang's chest.
"Tianmu" was ejected, and Liumu had no weapon in his hand, so he had to use his body to hit the blade. "Ghost"'s knife missed Ningshuang's chest, leaving blood marks on Liumu's shoulder.
Blood splashed onto Ningshuang's face, and she let out a scream. Liumu's actions obviously angered the "ghost", and he turned around and pounced on him. Liumu shouted: "Go quickly!" At the same time, he retreated sharply, the "ghost" followed him like a shadow, and the tip of the knife was only a short distance away from his chest.
By the time his back hit the wall, he had no way to retreat and saw blood splattered on the spot. At the critical moment, a shrill sound came from the side, and the shock wave surged, forcing the "ghost" back. At the same time, pink smoke filled the air, making it difficult to see.
Someone held his hand and ran straight into the depths of the forest before stopping. It turned out that Yingyue was holding him and Ningshuang at the same time.
After confirming that it was safe, Yingyue shook off Liumu's hand and scolded: "You don't want your life? Are you facing a head-on confrontation with a 'ghost'? If your body is missing, who knows whether you can be resurrected? If it weren't for the city lord's help, His 'Lion Roar Technique' and Bai Quan's 'Rouge Snow', we were all killed by their swords!"
Liumu did not respond, but turned to scold Ningshuang: "Are you crazy or stupid? You don't run for your life when you see a 'ghost'?"
Ningshuang's expression was a little confused, and her thoughts were short-circuited, "The name 'Rouge Snow' is so beautiful!"
Seeing that these two people were really unreasonable, Yingyue had no choice but to return to the topic, "Have you gained anything from this trip? The city lord is very worried about this!"
Liumu pretended to be mysterious, "I just want to talk to the city lord!" Yingyue hit a nail and handed over the blood jade knife angrily. As soon as his six eyes touched the handle of the knife, his consciousness immediately blurred, and he entered the tunnel of nothingness. After a brief period of confusion, he came to a mysterious cave.
The city lord was dressed in white, but he was not as calm as before. His expression was very urgent, and he asked right away: "How is it?"
Liu Mu looked solemn and shook his head slightly. The city lord sighed: "I originally expected you to bring good news and boost morale, but unexpectedly it's still a dead end! The black fog is filling the air, everything is beginning to wither, and we don't have much time left!"
"There is a way, but it's just not something I can do alone, and it's simply an impossible task." Liumu recounted Linghu Yuan's words again.
The city lord nodded and then shook his head after hearing this: "The Linghu family is a famous alchemist, I have heard about it for a long time. You said that pill can transform a person into a sword spirit, merge with the 'Tianmu', and become the soul of the weapon? I think that Unbelievable!”
"He did say so, and he also emphasized that those who take the elixir must be willing to give up their lives and combine with the 'Tianmu' in the form of their souls. There is no precedent, and it is unknown whether it will succeed or not. And even if it succeeds, what he transformed The weapon must be connected with the user's mind in order to exert its power to break through the sky and split the cliff. If there is a slight mistake, both the person and the weapon will be destroyed, body and soul will be destroyed!"
The city lord sighed: "This is difficult. Even if you find someone who is willing to sacrifice his life, it will be difficult to achieve the same goal. Otherwise, all your efforts may be wasted!"
Liumu looked frustrated, "I also know that this is an impossible task..."
"I also want to sacrifice my life for my husband, but it's a pity that he is already dead!"
As he was speaking, Ying Yue's figure suddenly appeared with a panicked look on his face, "City Lord, something bad is going on. The residents hiding in the mountains are returning in groups. They are behaving crazily and biting each other like animals. They will attack soon!"
The face of the city lord changed, "It must be that the souls floating in the sky have no place to rely on, and they are vying to attach themselves to the bodies of living people. If one person has multiple souls, it will definitely lead to madness. It's over, there is no way to survive in Qiyue City, let's resign ourselves to fate!"
The city lord shook his robe sleeves, his eyes were blurred, and he immediately returned to the forest where Ningshuang and Yingyue were standing beside him. Looking down, Qiyue City was in flames and thick smoke reached into the sky. The people in the city were running around like crazy, beating, robbing, and biting each other. The scene was extremely chaotic.
Yingyue sighed: "The city lord is right, Qiyue has become a dead city, so we can only give up. But at least I can choose a decent way to die!"
As she said this, she held the blood jade knife to her neck and was about to kill herself. Liumu's hands were quick and he used "Tianmu" to block, "We are not at the end of the road yet, we can only take a risk!"
He took out the pill from his arms, repeated Linghu Yuan's words, and then added: "If you take this pill, you will lose your life, and then your soul will be combined with the 'Tianmu' and turn into a sword spirit, which can improve your life." The power of 'Tianmu' is more than ten thousand times, it can split cliffs and save the people, but..."
Before Liu Mu finished speaking, Ningshuang grabbed the pill and threw it into his mouth. Yingyue got one step ahead of her and was so anxious that she stamped her feet and beat her chest. Liu Mu felt a pain in his heart. Ning Shuang was reckless. He always acted first and then thought later. Such an ending was also expected by Liu Mu. He hurriedly stepped forward to support Ningshuang, and saw that the look in her eyes gradually dimmed, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, "Now you owe me a life, and you will never be able to repay it..."
Ningshuang gradually died, and her soul flew out of her body, as brilliant as the colorful rays of light. After that, the soul lingered around the "Tianmu", and was gradually absorbed, returning to normal.
Yingyue didn't have time to feel sad, so she was dumbfounded and asked: "Has it been successful?"
Holding the "Tian Mu" in his hand, Liu Mu could feel a gentle breath coming from him, and strands of Ningshuang's aura lingered around him. He could hear her orchid breath beside him, and Liu Mu was a little intoxicated. .
"No matter what, we must try our best! Let's find help now. The closer we are to the cliff, the greater the possibility of success." Yingyue said, pulling him and running down the mountain. Before reaching the small building in the city, I saw Xue Ting and a group of people fighting in the distance.
"Those are all members of the 'Blood Shadow' detachment. Let's unite together and work together to escort you to the edge of the cliff!"
Liumu agreed, and was about to go up to help, when suddenly Ningshuang's voice sounded in his ears: "These people have been possessed by lonely souls and are going crazy. Leave quickly!"
At this time, everyone in Xue Ting also saw them and stopped fighting. Everyone's eyes were red and their expressions were ferocious. They all turned around and rushed towards them...
