Bottom of the pit.
The ground shook violently, and the endless billowing volcanic ash rushed out of the ground. After spurting out from the hole, it intertwined again and quickly rushed into the sky.
Mu Qing stared at the ground tightly.
"Click——"
A crack appeared under his gaze and quickly spread to his feet.
"snort!"
The monster was extremely proud. As its voice fell, the blue fireworks squeezed out of the cracks with a bang, intertwined into a big hand and grabbed Mu Qing.
Mu Qing flew back and shattered the attack with a sword.
But this was not the only similar attack. Cyan fireworks rushed out from the cracks. Mu Qing dodged several attacks and flew into the air. Only then could he see the entire scene of the pit.
The bottom of the pit is already covered with cracks, and a terrifying rock flow that burns the eyes can be seen under the blue fireworks.
These rock flows were rubbing and squeezing the floor, and the ground was like a surging wave. The reason why it had not completely rolled up yet seemed to be because a weak force was still restraining them.
Mu Qing sighed in his heart. He didn't know how many years had passed, but the formations built by the predecessors were still protecting people until the last moment.
Mu Qing caught the monster with his peripheral vision and took the initiative to attack.
The monster was hitting the ground at this time. When he saw Mu Qing coming, he sneered: "You can't stop me, it's just sooner or later."
Mu Qing had just refined the power of Shura in his body, and now he rushed towards the monster with his sword, with a faint red light on the edge of the sword.
Although the meaning of Tao is difficult to understand, Mu Qing's use of the power of Shura has really improved a lot in the battle with monsters.
The power of this sword is hidden, fast and silent.
The monster snorted coldly. Killing Mu Qing was not its first goal for the time being. After realizing that this sword did not have much power as a Shura, it veered a little in the direction and continued to hit the ground with this sword.
Mu Qing's sword eyebrows were slightly condensed, and the Demon Suppressing Sword in his hand was gently turned over, and two sword energy shot from the blade to the ground.
This sword energy was as thin as a hair, and it accurately calculated the direction and speed of the monster. It looked like the monster had taken the initiative to hit it.
"呲呲."
After two sword strikes, the black flame in the demon body was chipped away a little more.
It was surging all over like a wild beast with explosive fur, and looked at Mu Qing angrily.
Mu Qing immediately retreated.
But Mu Qing quickly discovered something was wrong. Looking back, the monster was still there. It suppressed its furious emotions and said coldly: "Your Master Hei is much smarter than you."
After it finished speaking, black flames billowed all over its body, and it still hit the ground.
"Boom."
The power of that layer of formation was as thin as a layer of window paper in front of the monster, and it easily broke into the magma.
Its entrance is less like a snowflake falling into boiling oil than like a spark falling into it.
The magma that had been surging suddenly froze for a moment, but in the next moment, there was a loud bang: "Boom!!!"
The fiery red magma had been dormant underground for thousands of years, and one day it broke through with great force.
The ground, which was already full of cracks, was instantly torn apart by the impact. Amidst the roar, the huge black stone flew into the sky. When it was exhausted and was about to fall, it encountered the roaring fireworks. After it passed through the fireworks, it continued to fall. At this moment, the red magma immediately caught it and pushed it to a higher place.
Mu Qing had already retreated to the edge of the pit, his face serious.
Although cultivation is to fight against heaven and earth, when faced with this situation, one's strength still can't change anything.
"Ha ha ha ha."
A burst of hearty laughter echoed throughout the sky as the lava spewed out.
Mu Qing raised his brows. Compared to his growth in reaching and breaking through limits in battle, this monster's growth was actually incredibly fast.
But whether it was the previous Dao Domain or the later Karma Fire, there was no change like it did at this moment, which made Mu Qing feel that the haze in his heart was heavier than the volcanic ash in the sky.
This monster is extremely easy to arouse emotions, but if it can control its emotions, it will be a hundred times more difficult to deal with than Bai Hao even if it grows to the level of Bai Hao's calculation at all times.
Can he delay it?
A sound of breaking through the air mixed with the sound of lava spewing suddenly became clear.
A glimmer of light flashed in Mu Qing's eyes, and a sword energy was thrown out. The monster that rushed towards him was stagnant. After escaping the sword energy, he realized that it was just an ordinary sword energy. He couldn't help laughing angrily: "It's always a little trick. , when can you hurt Master Hei?"
Mu Qing glanced at the black smoke-filled sky above his head, and then at the ground.
Under their feet, black ash accumulated in the dark ruins, and on the edge connected to the ruins, there were faint figures running around in the streets.
Mu Qing looked calm. He believed that Huaifenghua would definitely bring the news to Xing Fei, but it didn't seem to have much effect.
"Maybe it's because time is too tight, maybe those people don't believe this rhetoric anymore."
Mu Qing had already thought of several answers in his mind, and continued to stimulate the monster with his mouth: "Don't think about becoming a master. Your ability is only suitable for others to be a grandson. I think that cutting you with so many swords before can't make you remember. , it’s still a pity.”
"Wow! I will train you now."
The black flames that were consumed bit by bit were the greatest shame for the monster since its birth. At this time, when it was ridiculed by the person involved, the monster screamed and immediately rushed towards Mu Qing.
Mu Qing felt happy and continued to stimulate the monster with words while spinning around in the ruins.
The monster caught up with Mu Qing several times, but he managed to dodge it several times. After repeating this several times, the monster suddenly stopped and cursed angrily: "You idiot, you are delaying Master Hei's time again." , Mr. Hei will not fulfill your wishes today."
The two men were chasing each other, and not even half a stick of incense had passed. However, the magma spewing into the sky with great force had already covered the ruins and invaded places close to the edge.
Because these places are close to the city lord's palace, they have always been a place for those with power and money to show off. After the evacuation a few days ago, the people who stayed back here all have their own confidence.
So even though the Guards were the first to notify the people closest to the ruins, they were all soldiers who used their chops to attack these notifications, and some said with disdain that they would never leave unless Xing Fei himself.
It's just that such people, as arrogant as they were not long ago, are now in such embarrassment.
They drove carriages, carrying their families and guards, and swarmed into the street. They were completely dumbfounded.
From the end of the long street to the main street, there were carriages crowded together. In several places, there were scuffles between guards and servants.
For a moment, there were angry shouts and curses, cries at the end of the world, the sound of weapons clashing, and the neighing of horse hooves, all intertwined together.
Finally, someone remembered the Guards who came to inform them before. They shouted loudly to the Guards, hoping that they could clear the way for them and protect them.
Here, I don’t know how many people have shown their noble status and made many valuable promises, but in the end, there are still only these hateful faces in Xiangguli.
"ah!!!"
A scream suddenly echoed through the long street, and everyone looked over.
An old man who was pointing at the guards and yelling at the carriage just now was holding his neck tightly with his hands, rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
The old man twitched a few times, and spread out his hands weakly. A black hole appeared on his neck. He obviously hadn't fully lifted it up yet. His chest was rising and falling rapidly, and his voice was like a broken bellows: "Ho, ho..."
The long street was silent, everyone held their breath and widened their eyes.
"Ah, look!"
A guard beside the old man screamed and looked at the sky.
The long street seemed to be shrouded by black clouds that surged before a heavy rain, but when they looked closely, they realized that the black clouds were too low, but just higher than the roof.
Everyone looked at each other in shock, and then they were shocked to discover a terrifying fact.
This is not clouds before the rain at all, but thick volcanic ash!
Although the hot rock flow had just spread over the ruins and was still some distance away from the main street, the hot volcanic ash in the sky had already spread over.
Once these volcanic ash broke away from the heat flow that continued to spew out from the center, and rolled in all directions, they became lower and lower. By the time they were discovered by panicked people, they had already begun to steal their lives silently.
"Cough, cough."
"Ahem."
Suddenly, there was a slight coughing sound, and then a violent coughing sound. By the time the coughing sounds came one after another on the long street, the coughing sound was already heartbreaking.
For ordinary people, there is no need to take a breath of volcanic ash with terrifying high temperature. Just breathing the air with the pungent smell of sulfur will make some people shed tears and collapse to the ground with distorted faces.
"Plop, plop."
The sound of them falling was actually mixed with the coughing and began to become coherent. They may have been lucky and did not directly breathe in a mouthful of falling volcanic ash, but now they were paralyzed on the ground, already poisoned, and they could only stare wide-eyed. The earth is waiting to be burned through flesh and blood by volcanic ash, or to be eroded by lava.
The old man who had warned everyone finally sobbed and died. Once he died, the guards around him were no longer restrained. He killed people, grabbed treasures, and then turned around to kill many people. All his actions seemed extremely coherent under the great fear of death.
When they saw these guards squeezing out of the passage with an unstoppable force and escaping, some people immediately imitated them. In the long street that was originally crowded with hundreds of people, only a dozen or so people broke free from this mutual strangulation purgatory.
These people, whose fate may have been determined, did not die in the natural disaster after all.
So many times, when one person is facing danger, natural disasters are the most deadly, but when a group of people are facing natural disasters, the people around them may be more dangerous.
This scene on the long street is just a microcosm of other nearby cities after the lava spewed out.
Blood flowed out from the bodies of these fallen people. After they were connected together, the rolling blood and energy intertwined with each other, and they actually began to take shape from the beginning.
Under the billowing volcanic ash in the center, Mu Qing and the monster stood apart from each other.
The two of them looked down at the area pointed by the sharp edge of the rock flow. Although they did not see clear swords and swords, the blood that penetrated the volcanic ash was like the brightest fire, firmly attracting their attention. .
"Hahaha, you've been circling the ruins, don't you just want me to attack these ants later?"
The monsters were tumbling up and down in the rolling volcanic ash, in and out, and their voices were full of pleasure: "Is this the result you want me to see? Huh! Ants are always ants, and they are only worthy of becoming the lowest blood food."
Mu Qingmei turned around and looked at the monster intently.
He hadn't paid attention just now, but now he realized that the looming air currents were connected to the monster. The black flames in its body were rapidly devouring these air currents and had grown a bit.
"Sure enough, you have inherited Bai Hao's cultivation method!"
Mu Qing has already felt that these air currents contain mixed power of blood and energy.
The monster said with disdain: "Just him? Although his cultivation method can be classified as my magic method, compared with my natural ability, it is not even worthy of carrying my shoes."
The monster was also looking at Mu Qing deeply at this time: "Boy, I advise you not to act clever in front of Master Hei. If I hadn't noticed that the aura in your body was a little weird, you would be no different from those ants on the ground in front of me."
Mu Qing frowned and said nothing.
Although the monster was just using his own method to attack him, it reminded Mu Qing that although he could use the power of Shura to consume the monster's black flames, at this speed, he might not be able to match the opponent's speed of devouring changes. .
If he wanted to effectively hold back the monster, he had to start from this point.
When the monster saw Mu Qing calm down, it thought that this guy had been frightened by its words. The black flames it experienced surged, and an eye appeared deep in its body, and it quietly looked at Mu Qing's eyebrows.
"snort!"
A cold snort directly affected the monster's consciousness. This almost spiritual attack could actually work on a monster like it. This made the monster excited, and the black flames in its body rolled endlessly.
Mu Qing at this moment is like a gorgeous treasure box to it, and there are incredible things in the treasure box.
But the almost instinctive judgment convinced the monster that if he provoked the being in Mu Qing's body now, it would probably be a waste.
The monster suppressed the thought of taking advantage of Mu Qing's unpreparedness and took action immediately, and turned around and rushed towards the direction where the rock flow spread.
Meng Zhang's voice also sounded in Mu Qing's sea of consciousness: "The cause of this monster lies with Bai Hao, not you. If you insist on blaming it on yourself, you will only fall into a place of eternal disaster."
This was the first time Mu Qing heard such a serious warning and was stunned.
Meng Zhang's explanation has come: "If you fight this monster with a guilty heart, then the karma of those who died today will fall on you."
Mu Qing was puzzled in a strange place: "Why does it all fall on my head? Wouldn't that monster?"
"Hmph! Monsters want to replace the way of heaven, so they are afraid of karma? They are just like a fish in water."
Mu Qing had been worrying about how to effectively stop this monster. When Meng Zhang said this, he felt like a flash of inspiration and he immediately paid attention.
Meng Zhang's voice paused for a moment: "Your method is very dangerous."
Mu Qing looked forward, locked on the monster, and immediately flew over. Seeing a rare joke, he asked, "Will one wrong step lead to a place of eternal destruction?"
Although Meng Zhang didn't speak, so many exchanges made Mu Qing guess that Meng Zhang was really angry, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person. Bai Hao's matter is over, and I just regard this monster as a new enemy."
"Isn't this your quibble?"
"Of course not. After I have done what I feel I should do, the life and death of these people should be their own. I have been dragging the monster around now, but I just don't want it to hurt the people I care about."
"Is this a quibble?"
"It doesn't count."
Mu Qing smiled knowingly, and felt that his thoughts were clear, and his state of being at the first level of spiritual life had become a little looser.
