Soul Thermometer.
This is the name given to the prop by the curse. It was exchanged for the survival points when Kong Ling was on the train. It was obtained by redeeming the mission rewards accumulated in 3 games. The prop is of a higher grade and is an extremely expensive mid-level item like Peng Hu's Frozen Stone. As for the supernatural props, as the exchange ended, the survival value accumulated by Kong Ling for 3 games was completely exhausted. In addition, the exchange time was just before the start of this mission. Qian Xueling, who was also at the scene at that time, witnessed the girl happily exchange for a similar item. Although she curiously asked about the thermometer, Kong Ling chose to keep it secret and did not answer. She neither told Qian Xueling nor anyone in the team until she entered the mission and set foot in the forest, until she was caught by a wolf and trapped in a place equivalent to hell. spiritual space.
Through the eyes of the sky, after discovering the terrifying truth hidden in the red world with his own eyes, Kong Ling remembered that he was still carrying a prop, an unconventional prop that could neither defend nor attack, and the only life force that could make the user's soul leave the body. !
In order to avoid being torn into pieces by the sea of skeletons, with a gambling mentality, Kong Ling used the props decisively, and used them for the first time despite knowing that there were great risks in using them. Then he concentrated on driving his thoughts, and frequently used his thoughts to control his soul to promote his departure from the body. …
She succeeded. The first time she used it, she successfully turned herself trapped in the spiritual space into a soul. Finally, she escaped from the space with Chen Xiaoyao. They both escaped from the spiritual space in an extreme way of soul separation. In this way, they used their souls. The posture miraculously escaped the fatal attack that should have been unstoppable.
Yes, even the soul has separated from the body, and the mental attack of the beast cannot affect them. Similarly, although Kong Ling has a powerful and otherworldly soul, she is still a mortal in the final analysis. She is not a fairy, so no matter what It is impossible for the soul to leave the body and travel around the world. The reason why it can break free from the constraints and escape from the space mainly relies on props, relying on the soul thermometer that is placed in the pocket, or in other words, as early as when the beast started to release its ability, that is The moment the girl realized that she was about to fall into coma, she had already put her right hand into her pocket and grasped the prop tightly, grabbing the soul thermometer before she fell into coma!
This is a backhand, a clever method that only smart people have, a last-ditch stubbornness that never forgets to find a chance of survival.
Unexpectedly, it was this stubbornness that saved the lives of himself and Chen Xiaoyao at the critical moment, allowing the two people who should have died in the spiritual space to turn into souls and leave their bodies until they were suspended in mid-air to witness everything.
As for the ethereal soul strength at this moment?
In other words, when the girl’s soul leaves the body, the level of the worm’s soul can be comparable to...
If we still take Chen Xiaoyao or an ordinary person as an example, if the soul strength of an ordinary person's soul after leaving the body is only equivalent to that of an ordinary unconscious soul, Chen Xiaoyao only retains self-awareness due to his Taoist practice, and the actual strength of his soul is still the same as that of an ordinary soul. If different, then Kong Ling's current soul strength is...
Li Qi! ! !
As it breaks free from the shackles of the physical body and gets rid of the restraints of the body, at this moment, the ethereal soul is no less than the higher-level Li Qi in the Qi physical system in terms of overall strength and specific strength, thus fully possessing supernatural powers and becoming a certain kind of person. A special existence that is not Li Qi in essence but has the same strength as Li Qi, becoming an unprecedentedly powerful soul!
No wonder Kong Ling can move and shuttle freely after his soul leaves the body. No wonder the other party can easily escape from the spiritual space. No wonder the other party has been holding hands with me from beginning to end, holding me. It turns out he is protecting me. That's it, that's it!
………
Hooray, hooray.
The cold wind poured through the forest, picking up large pieces of fallen leaves, and then moved and danced in mid-air, and finally disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
However, who would have thought that in that seemingly peaceful darkness in the distance, an astonishing change would now occur. The change was unique and the process was unbelievable.
Forgetting time and ignoring everything, Chen Xiaoyao was currently staring at Kong Ling with a look that seemed to be looking up at the girl next to him who was as transparent and suspended in the air as himself.
Why use 'looking up' to describe it? The key is that he has now learned the cause and effect from the girl, and knows the truth about the soul leaving the body. It turns out that Kong Ling used the item called the "soul thermometer" to achieve the soul leaving the body. At the same time, when the soul is separated from the body, The strength of both sides has also undergone a dramatic reversal. The girl has become the strong one. The weak girl who could not be beaten by anyone has now become a powerful being comparable to Li Qi in the soul state. On the contrary, she has become weak in the soul state. Chicken, a small and weak chicken that depends on a girl for its continued existence.
(It seems that I still don’t know enough about the Heavenly Eye. I didn’t expect that the Heavenly Eye can not only see through disguise and see the truth, but also strengthen the owner’s soul. Damn, I didn’t expect that this little girl’s soul strength is so high. Eh. ? Wait, if her soul strength at this moment is really as strong as Li Qi's as she said, wouldn't that mean...)
Sure enough, after listening to Kong Ling's brief explanation, he was stunned for only five or six seconds. The next moment, Chen Xiaoyao suddenly raised his head as if he had discovered a new world, and then asked the girl with an expression full of joy: "Li Qi? Since the soul In this state, your strength is equivalent to that of Li Qi, so is there any way you can help us break free?"
There is no doubt that this is a seemingly incomprehensible sentence, which is contradictory to others. After all, the two of them have already broken away from the spiritual world at this moment, and the restraints no longer exist. Since there are no restraints, why does Chen Xiaoyao talk about it? Break free?
reason?
The reason is very simple. At least Kong Ling understood the meaning instantly. That was because she knew that the restraint Chen Xiaoyao was referring to was not the mental restraint earlier, but the physical restraint. It was referring to the opposite side more than ten meters away, and it was referring to the person who was still pinching his neck and unable to do anything. The two flesh bodies that escaped!
That's right, the soul state is of course relaxed, and there is no need to continue to withstand the attacks of worms, but the problem is that they are not dead after all, and they are not completely dead after all. Today's soul separation can only be achieved temporarily with the help of props. It is also because the two of them do not have Really dead, so no matter what, they have to find a way to return to the body. Once time is delayed for a long time, as the effect of the prop ends, they will definitely be finished by then. What they really have to do now is to return the soul to the body as soon as possible, but...
They can't go back!
It's not that they can't go back, but their bodies are still grasped by the hawk, and their foreheads are still stuck together with the hawk!
what does that mean? It means that the spiritual attack is still maintained. Although they are comfortable and relaxed now, if they return to the physical body, they will no longer have to think about it. At the moment when their souls return to their bodies, the two of them will fall into the spiritual world again and face the escape again. There is no escape from the sea of skeletons.
We must find a way to break the bondage, or let go of the two bodies before their souls return to their bodies!
At this moment, listening to Chen Xiaoyao's inquiry, Kong Ling didn't speak or answer. It wasn't that she didn't say anything, but she had been observing. From the moment she explained the cause and effect to the young man, she had always locked her eyes ahead, staring closely at the figure that looked like " Peng Hu's guy, his eyebrows changed during the observation, and it wasn't until one minute passed that the girl took action under a certain thought...
Pulling Chen Xiaoxiao towards 'Peng Hu', after the distance between the two sides shortened to only 10 meters, the girl raised her arm. The next moment, on the ground beside her, a hard stone larger than a football just fell on the ground without any impact. When people touched and pushed it, it floated into the air on its own, floating to the top of 'Peng Hu''s head. Then, as the ethereal arm suddenly fell, the stone that was suspended in the air just now fell with lightning, and directly hit 'Peng Hu''s head!
Hooray, bang dong!
A crashing sound followed, and the suddenly falling rock hit its target without any accident, hitting the forehead of 'Peng Hu' that had been solidified for a long time!
Can……
Ineffective, completely ineffective.
Looking closely, he saw that the rock, which was enough to smash anyone's brains out on the spot, had no impact after hitting 'Peng Hu' as if it hit a hard tree. Apart from making a dull sound, there was no sound after that. Others, while 'Peng Hu' is still standing unscathed!
Seeing this, Chen Xiaoyao was shocked. Although he did not expect that Kong Ling, who had transformed into Li Qi, had the ability to move objects through the air, he also did not expect that such a ferocious attack could not force Qi Wu to let go of their bodies!
"Oh my god, can't you beat that thing like this? We, we're done."
Seeing that no external force could make Qi let go of him, Chen Xiaoyao panicked when faced with such a naked and terrifying reality. Panic then turned into fear, and finally fear turned into despair, until he muttered pessimistically to himself.
only……
The above are just Chen Xiaoyao’s personal feelings!
At the same time, I don't know whether he saw Ni Duan from the attack experiment just now or finally thought of a solution. As the rock fell to the ground, Kong Ling suddenly turned his head and said a serious cold word while looking at the young man. He asked: "Hey, Chen Ruffian, please stop crying and mourning. I want to ask you something."
"Huh? What, what's the matter?" As expected, when Kong Ling asked him this question and saw the girl's unkind look, Chen Xiaoyao didn't dare to neglect him, so he turned around and answered in confusion, and then...
"If, I mean if, if Qi lets us go later, is there any way you can restrain him?"
"Huh?"
"Stop being in a daze, we don't have much time, hurry up and tell the truth!"
It is said that communication between smart people is always simple. Seeing the girl's eagerness, Chen Xiaoyao was completely awake, and he didn't care about doubts and questions. He immediately nodded and answered firmly: "It can be restricted, as long as I can break away from the worm and touch the big tree, by then." I can repeat my old trick and use the wooden escape I used to temporarily trap the beast!"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Kong Ling responded: "Okay! If that's the case, then..."
Suddenly, the girl moved. Without notifying the young man next to her, she suddenly moved before she finished speaking. She pulled the young man and charged forward at a speed comparable to lightning, straight towards the 'Peng Hu' who was very close at hand. ! ! !
Hooray.
"Ah! What are you going to do? Ah, wow!"
Accompanied by Chen Xiaoyao's shrill screams of horror beside him, Kong Ling galloped through, rushing straight towards Peng Hu without any reason. He saw that the distance was getting closer and closer, but just as the two of them were about to collide with each other, At that moment, the ethereal arm swung, and Chen Xiaoyao, who was being pulled by his right hand, was thrown to one side, towards the young man's body opposite the creature. When he let go, he shouted: "Be prepared!"
This was the last sentence Chen Xiaoyao heard before his soul returned to his body, and it was also the last reminder given by the girl, because after 0.5 seconds, Chen Xiaoyao was thrown straight into his body by the girl's huge force. , the moment he returned to his physical body, the last scene Chen Xiaoyao saw was the girl disappearing!
No, it didn't disappear, but overlapped. Kong Ling actually rushed directly into the body of 'Peng Hu' as a soul in an instant! ! !
(You are gambling on your life, a naked gamble on your life. Even if there is no other way, you should not use such an extreme method to save me. Have you considered the consequences if you fail? There is a wolf in front of you, a terrifying one. You’re a perverted monster that’s worse than an earthbound spirit, you ethereal girl, you, you are so stupid!)
Next, there is chaos, confusion, and blur. When the soul comes into contact with the body, Chen Xiaoyao can't help but stretch like a tightly locked magnet. Under the irresistible attraction of the body, Chen Xiaoyao is instantly stretched. Soul and body become one.
With the union of soul and body, the sense of relaxation disappeared, and the comfortable and comfortable feeling of relaxation earlier disappeared, replaced by heaviness, oppression, pain, and the numbness and fatigue that spread throughout the body due to exhaustion of energy.
After a brief period of confusion, Chen Xiaoyao opened his eyes in a truly physical way!
As soon as I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a shocking scene, and the first thing that resounded through my eardrums was the harsh noise:
Bah, bah bah bah, bah bah bah!
I don't know when, I saw that 'Peng Hu' had let go of himself, let go of Kong Ling, and let go of his left and right hands that were originally squeezing their necks. At the same time, the head that should have been close to the forehead was also no longer there. Contact, but this is not the point. The point is that in addition to letting go of the two people to interrupt the attack, the 'Peng Hu' that had been solidified for a long time in front of him also trembled suddenly as if it had been touched by a strong electric current. His body moved on its own even though it was clearly not in contact with anything. The twitching looked like an electric shock, and what was even weirder was that noises surrounded it during the shaking, and a series of increasingly louder noises were released from the body of 'Peng Hu'!
However, the weirdness was not over, and the terror was far from over. As the noise became louder and louder, the unknown crocodile in front of him that was supposed to maintain the shape of 'Peng Hu' also changed drastically, transforming in a state that was very much like being shaken by an electric shock. The appearance changes rapidly, in a way that is comparable to the blink of an eye of a human being. It turns into a faceless man in a suit, and then returns to the appearance of Peng Hu, and then becomes the faceless man again, and then returns to the appearance of Peng Hu, and so on, in the blink of an eye. The cycle, just like that, kept changing appearance and body shape in that strange current. As the body shape changed more and more frequently, the noise became louder and clearer. In the end, Chen Xiaoyao became dizzy! ! !
This is the noise of death. It is the terrifying noise that affected Chen Xiaoyao's brain when he encountered the locust for the first time last night. When he looked at the constantly changing figure in front of him...
The slender figure is the faceless man in a suit who chased me last night!
There is no need to explain anymore. Under that mysterious attack like electric current, the opponent is about to lose his disguise and reveal his true form, or it is about to be forced into his original form under the influence of the empty soul! ! !
Then……
Bah!
There was a loud roar, and concussions swept across. It was unknown whether the current influence had increased to the extreme or the faceless man could no longer withstand the mysterious attack. Just when Chen Xiaoyao noticed that he was dizzy, the noise increased sharply, and he suddenly released a string of nearly After the loud noise that shattered the eardrums, his arms suddenly stretched up to the sky and roared. During the roar, an almost transparent figure was directly knocked out of the man's body, and then flew backwards like a kite with its string broken. Next...
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Whoosh!
Chen Xiaoyao moved, and in the huge pain of being dizzy and almost fainting, Lightning bent down to pick up Kong Ling, and immediately charged with all his strength with his legs, holding the girl in his arms and rushing towards the figure in a way that instilled energy to increase the speed, and in the end, miraculously He rushed to the path that the figure must pass before the figure moved away, and then he set up the girl to face the figure. Then, a familiar scene happened:
Similar to when his soul returned to his body, the moment the girl approached the transparent figure, the two sides attracted each other like magnets and stretched each other until they became one and could not distinguish each other, and then...
He hurriedly turned around and looked behind him. As far as he could see, he saw that 'Peng Hu', who was shaking all over and changing constantly just now, had completely changed his appearance. He stopped changing and settled into a tall and thin figure, completely evolving into a tall and thin figure. The tall, thin, faceless man!
(It’s a matter of life or death!)
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaoyao made another move and casually dropped the girl in his arms. He immediately crossed his hands in lightning seals and frequently changed various gestures at an unprecedented speed. He gritted his teeth even though his seven holes were bleeding due to the noise. He continued to move until one of his eyeballs was filled with blood and burst due to being unable to withstand the noise!
Pfft.
Chen Xiaoyao lost an eye, which was damaged and collapsed due to the inhuman torture of enduring violent noises for a long time. However, at the moment when his right eye exploded, and at the same moment when the faceless man broke away from the current and returned to his original state, the seal was formed. Just finished!
As the seals were completed and preparations were over, regardless of the blood flowing out of Kong Kong's right eye, he regained his freedom and waved his right arm to his side. Then the moment he touched the body of a big tree, his left hand circled and stretched out his index finger, mouth Li yelled sternly: "Maoshan Five Elements Escape Technique, the dead tree blooms in spring!"
The roar fell, and a sudden change appeared. Under Chen Xiaoyao's almost crazy shout, a similar scene appeared:
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
In the lightning flash, as soon as the index finger touched the tree, the big tree around him trembled, then swayed, shaking suddenly and extremely wildly in a way similar to an earthquake. As the tree trembled and swayed, the originally quiet and solid branches and leaves also rustled. The sound went up and down, and during the ups and downs, countless branches and leaves growing on the top of the big tree also fluttered and actively circled as if they had come to life. As they circled, they extended one after another, charging down collectively, towards the faceless man in a suit 10 meters away, and then In this way, the man is surrounded by a tight hoop, and the man is completely restricted and wrapped by many ropes composed of branches!
As for Chen Xiaoyao...
"Ah! Oooohhhhh!"
Gulu, gulu.
The young man was rolling. Under the triple torment of the noise, loss of energy, and severe pain in his right eye, he fell to the ground and wailed on the spot. It hurt, it was uncomfortable. This kind of comprehensive pain that was worse than death was simply worse than going up a mountain of swords and going down a frying pan. , he can no longer hold on, he is exhausted, and is about to fall to the ground and collapse in pain that exceeds the limit, but...
But he couldn't collapse and didn't dare to fall into coma, because he still had to protect one person, he wanted to protect the girl. If he was the only one present, he might choose to fall down. Yes, just die, at least he doesn't have to endure this kind of thing anymore. Isn't it painful? The truth is indeed correct, but the problem is that there is still a void at the scene, and he cannot harm the other party under any circumstances, so...
"Mom, it hurts me so much!"
After suddenly bursting out with a series of wails of pain, and not knowing where the strength came from, Chen Xiaoyao, who had just fallen to the ground, collapsed, covered his eyes and rolled, miraculously climbed off the ground and staggered to run, before running up to the girl who didn't know whether she was alive or dead. He picked up Kong Ling and staggered away, moving away as far as possible from the faceless man in a suit who represented the source of the noise. It was obvious that Mu Dun could indeed effectively limit the pursuit of the faceless man, but Mu Dun could not block the spread of noise, and it was precisely because of the inability to block it. There is no noise, so even if the mango has restricted his movement and is entangled in the tree, the reverberating noise still affects him all the time. Unless he can run 100 meters in a short time and run away from the area affected by the noise, he will not be able to stay any longer. It's just as simple as seven bleeding eyeballs exploding!
Da, da da da, da da da.
run! Run with too much life, and run as far as you can while the creature is temporarily trapped by the wood escape. Even if you die, you must take the void away from the dangerous area before death. As the old saying goes, one death is better than two. A strong one to the death!
The results were mixed, both good and bad.
The good news is that after some staggering running, Chen Xiaoyao successfully took the girl a hundred meters away and successfully escaped from the impact of the noise.
As for the bad news…
His physical strength had reached this point, and his energy was completely exhausted.
Then……
Plop.
The young Taoist priest fell down. After barely running a hundred meters away, his body went limp and he fell straight down. Together with Kong Ling, they both fell to the ground without moving.
This is the helplessness of mortals, this is the sorrow of mortals.
No matter how powerful you are, you may have many tricks, but you are still a mortal, and mortals always have limits. When the limit reaches the peak of physical support, even if you have the perseverance to support it, you will eventually have to face reality, the cruel reality of physical failure.
(It's over, I'm dead. I didn't expect to struggle to this point. I'm still going to die. But it doesn't matter. I tried my best, and Kong Ling also tried his best. It's not that we are not strong enough, but that the beast is too strong. What the hell It’s like a monster that’s a bit more powerful than the Earthbound Spirit. It’s not a shame to die in the hands of such a heaven-defying creature, but it’s just... I’m not willing to give in. I’m still a little bit unwilling after all...)
The moment he fell to the ground, when he realized that he didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, Chen Xiaoyao was in despair. During his despair, his thoughts were wandering around. He was unwilling to give in and didn't want to die the night before victory. Yes, after all, this was the train's arrival at the end. The last mission before the mission. As long as the team can survive this mission, the team will get the golden key. With the key, they can go to the Hell Reincarnation Station and see the legendary mysterious place with their own eyes. As a result, the ship capsized. He never thought that at the last moment when he was about to win, his ship would capsize in the ditch, and unexpectedly he would encounter a perverted creature that was not an earthbound spirit but was slightly stronger than an earthbound spirit. Faced with such a result, how could Chen Xiaoyao be willing to accept it? Therefore, even if he dies, he is destined to die in peace!
Chen Xiaoyao was not sure whether his ending would be to die in peace. However, he was certain of another thing, an unexpected change that he had just discovered. Yes, just when Chen Xiaoyao had the unwilling thought, he discovered What, what did I see? With the help of the faint light, the remaining round left eye could faintly see a black shadow running in front of me.
