"Something's wrong..."
The pink markings were extremely swift, like intelligent microorganisms, instantly covering the blade of the sword.
Rust appears, and the glory is gone.
The Zhenguo freak couldn't help but tremble crazily, and the force field aura emitted obviously began to gradually dissipate.
"When did these things come about..."
It was visibly weakened.
The golden sword suddenly rose into the sky, and the surrounding illusion of the universe suddenly disappeared without a trace.
In the blink of an eye.
Xue Yun returned to the hall of the Imperial Tomb Underground Palace again.
Before he could fully react, a long and shrill sword roar suddenly came from above his head.
Qiang——
A flash of light flowed down and just inserted into the ground in front of the coffin.
The brilliance is dim and rusty.
The sword spirit monster in front of him didn't have any of the power he had just now. His body was completely covered in pink rust, like an old man with gossamer energy, and he could no longer exert any strength.
"Could these things be..."
I couldn't help but step forward and take a closer look at the weird pink rust spots on the sword's blade.
Xue Yun recognized on the spot that this thing was very similar in appearance to the fungal virus used by Zhao Tianyi back then, and even its effects were similar.
"It's the boy with the power of [Xing Tianshi] just now..."
There was obviously strong surprise in the voice.
"Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" finally came to his senses and realized that the culprit behind his physical discomfort was none other than Zhao Tianyi who had just besieged him with Xue Yun.
no doubt.
These specially treated fungi continue to eat away at the mental power of the Zhenguo freak, so much so that the biological force field in his body is rapidly disappearing.
Although it is not fatal.
However, it is completely possible to make "Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" temporarily lose its original combat power.
next moment--
The armor hanging upside down in the coffin suddenly jumped out.
As the golden light flashed, it had once again condensed and enveloped the dim golden sword, turning into a hollow warrior holding a long sword.
A thud~~
The sword spirit, who transformed into an armored warrior, knelt on the ground on one knee.
At the critical moment.
Although the Great Xia Emperor's armor was used to temporarily suppress the erosion of the mental fungus, the body of "Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" was also severely damaged, and its strength was not as good as before.
Rumble——
In an instant.
The entire underground palace and imperial mausoleum suddenly trembled for no reason, and deafening roars could be heard on the spot.
The ground was shaking, as if it might collapse at any time, and countless pieces of sand, gravel and dust fell from the sky.
"What's going on?!" Xue Yun asked in surprise.
"It's still the same boy..."
"Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" reluctantly stood up, raised his hand to explore the gate of the underground palace, and said in a deep voice: "He is attacking the sandbank indiscriminately, trying to find the exact location of the underground palace's imperial mausoleum." 』
After a while.
A round of transparent ripples appeared in the mid-air of the underground palace.
The void rules specially used to spy on the outside world suddenly condensed, forming an extremely clear picture.
On the barren sand dunes.
Two figures stood side by side, seemingly looking for something. One of them was wearing the traditional priest robe of the Empire where the sun never sets, and his red pupils were filled with cold murderous intent.
As for the other person, it was Zhao Tianyi who wore gold-rimmed glasses and always had a calm expression.
"This guy......"
He was startled violently.
Xue Yun's eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth and yelled: "How could he be walking with people from the Empire where the sun never sets!?"
"Isn't it obvious enough? 』
The freak in the town was so angry that he said in a deep voice: "This guy has betrayed Daxia. No wonder I haven't been able to find the whereabouts of the Empire's legions since I launched the [Kyushu Sword Formation] just now." 』
"It turns out that they have been colluding with this kid for a long time..."
Rebellion is unacceptable.
Zhao Tianyi's approach was obviously completely different from that of the various princes and city lords.
The princes of Daxia just want to consolidate their status and power. Although they have opinions on the royal family, they will never collude with external forces to harm the interests of the Daxia Empire.
Internal conflicts and treason are completely different things!
"Son of a bitch!"
Dragging heavy steps.
Xue Yun's body has not yet recovered, but at this moment he is staggering towards the underground palace gate, wishing he could kill him immediately and cut the expressionless Zhao Tianyi into pieces.
"stop......"
A step stopped in front of the faltering Xue Yun.
The armor all over his body was eclipsed. The Zhenguo Freak braced himself and said in a deep voice: "With your current injury, rushing out at this time is equivalent to death." 』
as expected.
Through the surveillance screen in the main hall, countless ferocious figures could be seen poking their heads out from the bottom of the hillside.
The huge head was covered with terrifying pupils.
At the end of the stooped back, octopus-like tentacles fly in the air, and the mucus that shoots up seems to be extremely corrosive, and can even melt the sand and gravel on the ground.
The mountains and plains are densely packed.
The sudden appearance of alien creatures spread their teeth and claws, and their number is at least tens of thousands.
These guys are anything but freaks in the conventional sense.
They don't have the slightest breath of living things, but are more like machines that are controlled by humans, and their movements are full of inexplicable cold madness.
The pupils shrank suddenly.
Xue Yun finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
This special army from the Empire where the sun never sets not only escaped the unified stranglehold of the "Kyushu Sword Formation", but what's more terrible is that these gadgets are simply toys sent by the Zhongshan Wu Sect.
in other words.
Zhao Tian had colluded with Zhongshan Wu early on.
From the moment this guy joined the meeting of the Alliance of Lords, everyone had already fallen into the trap he set in order to obtain the opportunity for Zhongshan Wu to surprise the Great Xia Empire.
"What should I do..."
Narrow your eyes.
Xue Yun clenched his fists and said angrily: "Are we just going to watch them do whatever they want on the land of Daxia?!"
The mantis stalks the cicada, followed by the oriole.
Although the alliance of princes has probably won this civil war, after a big battle, many forces in the Daxia Empire must have suffered heavy losses, and their national defense strength has been greatly reduced. It will not be possible to recover for a while.
"In this situation, there is only one thing that can be done..."
There was a pause.
The Zhenguo freak said bluntly: "That is to stay here until all the injuries are healed and the fighting strength is restored, and then we can find a way to escape and try to contact the outside world." 』
Hear the words.
No matter how unwilling he was, Xue Yun could only endure it temporarily.
As "Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" said, seizing the time to heal your injuries is the most correct choice at the moment.
"follow me......"
The heavy armor made a rustling sound.
The Zhenguo freak maintained his armored warrior form and turned back to take a deep look at the young man behind him.
"There is a place in this underground palace that not only allows you to quickly regain your strength, but may also help you reach a higher level. 』
He was slightly startled.
Xue Yun's eyes widened, feeling curious and inexplicably feeling uneasy and uneasy in his heart.
