The waiting time is always difficult. Fortunately, Shi Chishang has experienced too much since he started practicing, so he did not become impetuous because of it. Instead, he calmly sorted himself out and adjusted his state to its peak.
Although Zheng Duobao and the others detonated the fire dozens of kilometers east of Handan, the fire wave still spread and was clearly sensed by Shi Chishang.
But he still didn't move, and waited for another half-quarter of an hour before he suddenly stood up. The moment the thunder light behind him turned into wings, he already held the Evil Heart Sword in his hand and rushed towards the barrier set up by the Sky Locking Network.
As he stepped forward to attack, the Taixu Talisman in his soul fluctuated quietly. The power of Taixu quietly merged with the sword's intention, lingering around the sword's edge. Not only did his forward speed double, but the space in front of the sword's tip was constantly distorted. , as if a gap was about to open on its own.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Chishang had already hit the barrier with his sword. The polar halo evolved by the power of Taixu was blessed by the sword, and became more dazzling. It pierced the barrier almost instantly, and the man and his sword penetrated through it. Follow the compass guidance without stopping.
*——*——*
Over Handan City, an old Taoist priest who is nearly fifty years old is sitting cross-legged, surrounded by twenty-nine Taoist priests in the fusion stage. Square bronze mirrors hang above their heads, pulling in the rich Yang energy in the clouds. , after being refracted by twenty-nine mirrors, they were all guided into a copper ball in front of the old Taoist priest.
This copper ball is the core of the control of the Suotian Network after it is deployed. The old Taoist priest can use the Yang Qi attracted by the formation of twenty-nine Taoist priests next to him to block the scope of the Suotian Network to the size of the entire urban area of Handan.
Although they also sensed that there was an immortal weapon emerging in the east, none of the thirty Taoist priests from Qingyun Temple stood up, or even turned their heads to take a look.
Unlike the Maoshan Sect, Zhongnan Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, and Yuping Mountain, the Qingyun Temple does not have much hostility towards ghosts. The ban on Handan City this time was only due to the invitation of the Dragon Group and the constant persuasion from the Maoshan Sect. , so he had to send his disciples to help.
So from the beginning to the end, people like Qingyun Temple just stayed in mid-air to maintain the sky-locking net, and never went down to help search for Shi Chishang.
As for the newly born immortal weapon, although Qingyun Temple is determined to fight for it, there are only so many people here this time. Not to mention that they can't find the manpower to fight for it, even if they send people over, it will be difficult to fight for the immortal weapon with their strength.
The old Taoist priest was shaking his head gently, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed, his seemingly cloudy eyes lit up with a bright light, he flicked his sleeves, and the copper ball in front of him swung around, transmitting the scene of Shi Chi Shang penetrating the barrier just now. into his mind.
"Is this... the magic of Taixu?" Seeing the magic cast by Shi Chishang, the old Taoist priest was slightly startled, and then waved his sleeves again. The barrier that originally enveloped the entire Handan City quietly closed, and in the blink of an eye it was already gone. All the copper balls were returned, causing the originally heavy copper ball to quietly turn back into a big net.
Looking at a disciple, the old Taoist priest said calmly: "Inform the Dragon Group that Shi Chishang just broke through the barrier of my Sky Locking Network and went south."
*——*——*
After passing through the barrier, Shi Chishang hid his figure and used his extreme shadow thunder wings with all his strength. His speed was as fast as a fleeting shadow. He had already passed thousands of meters in the blink of an eye. After a few breaths, he had arrived at a place south of Handan. cemetery.
After looking at the brightness of the starlight arrows on the compass, Shi Chishang knew that the other party was in this cemetery. Without any hesitation, he knocked out the cemetery guard first, moved outside, and then quickly stepped in with his sword in hand.
It was already dusk at this time, and naturally there was no one else in the cemetery. Shi Chishang could see countless tombstones as far as the eye could see. Ordinary people would probably feel nervous if they came at this time.
Just entering the cemetery, Shi Chishang had already keenly sensed a ghostly aura in the vast aura of death.
Death energy is formed by the decay of vitality in the body when a living being dies, while ghost energy is emitted by ghosts. Since there is ghost energy here, it means that there must be ghosts haunting this place.
"Could it be that the ancient tomb is near this cemetery?"
Shi Chishang frowned slightly, feeling vaguely that something was wrong, but when he really wanted to say what was wrong, he couldn't think clearly.
"Boy, watch your back!"
Shi Chishang was frowning and thinking, when Ma Hanxue suddenly shouted loudly. Only then did he feel that there was a ghostly aura lurking quietly behind him, and it was about to touch his back.
Although he was distracted, Shi Chishang reacted very quickly. He slashed out with his sword with his backhand, and the edge of the sword burst out with Ling Mie Cang Yan. Just as it penetrated into the ghost aura, he heard a shrill scream, and the ghost aura had a strong aura. He shrank back after falling to the ground.
Shi Chishang succeeded with his sword, and when he looked back, he saw that the one who sneaked up on him was actually a humanoid ghost. Although the aura had the appearance of an intermediate ghost general, its shape was blurry, like a ball of gas, vaguely humanoid.
"Sprite?" Niu Sanshan said in surprise.
"What?" Shi Chishang was stunned for a moment, then realized and said in surprise, "You said he is a monster?"
In folklore, there are ghosts and monsters, and there are many explanations. Most of them refer to ghosts. In the ghost world, there is really such a race of monsters. Shi Chishang recalled what Ma Hanxue told him at the beginning, this monster The clan seems to live in the Huangquan River Basin of the ghost world.
"Boy, who are you?" The monster's figure was erratic, and the breeze blew by, and the shape was slightly distorted, really like a mist.
However, Shi Chishang knew that even though this monster seemed to be as fragile as a mist, in fact this race was extremely good at hiding. It was almost as good as the shadow puppet tribe he had encountered before. If it hadn't been for Ma Khan's blood, Reminder, he couldn't even detect the other party's approach.
"Hey! Demons and demons, these two races have always been inseparable. Since the demons are here, then the demons are probably nearby, right?"
Amidst the sneers, two groups of ghostly auras filled the air behind Shi Chishang, and then the figures of Ma Hanxue and Niu Sanshan appeared.
"Ox head? Horse face?"
Seeing the appearance of these two figures, the monster seemed to be shocked. Before it could greet him, a tombstone next to it suddenly exploded, and a ghost like a dragon and a snake crawled out of it. It stared at them with scarlet pupils and roared: "According to the rules, here This is our activity area, what are you doing here?"
Shi Chishang looked at Niu Sanshan in confusion, and the latter explained angrily: "When we first came to the human world, our tribes had an agreement to divide an area for each other's activities and try not to interfere with each other."
"You know, why don't you get out of here?" The dragon-like snake-like demon straightened up and said coldly.
Shi Chishang sneered and asked, "Have you been killing people in Handan some time ago?"
"Handan?" Xiao Mei's eyes showed confusion, and Xiao Xiao said calmly: "It's the place we went to before."
Oh, the demon said coldly: "It's us. The human world lacks death energy and we don't kill people. No matter how we practice, we are all creatures of the ghost world. It's not like you don't know. Why do you ask?"
"No! Demon, this kid is a living person!" The Demon seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly raised his voice and said sternly, "What are you two doing by bringing a living person here?"
During the conversation, Shi Chishang had already taken out a recording stone and secretly recorded the conversation.
This thing is similar to a tape recorder, but it is refined with magic. It can record all the movements around it when it is activated.
Putting away the recording stone, a coldness appeared in Shi Chishang's eyes. Although he practiced the ghost way, he was a human race. These two ghosts killed humans indiscriminately just for training, which naturally made him furious.
Sensing his murderous intention, the demons and demons were filled with ghostly aura, and they were obviously on guard.
"Help me sweep the formation, don't let them escape!" Shi Chishang warned, and then he swept out his sword directly, using the Shadow Sword Technique to create thousands of sword shadows, intertwining like the cold moonlight, spreading across the sky and earth, like flowing water. Most of the cemetery was flooded.
Seeing that Shi Chishang was difficult to deal with, the demon screamed, bowed, and then turned into a black shadow and jumped forward, controlling the ghost energy to turn into countless Yin Qi blade lights, surrounding him and sweeping endlessly, like a continuously swirling The slicing storm of blade light shattered countless tombstones around them and turned them into powder.
Amidst the loud rumbling sound, the Blade Light Storm and the Shadow Sword Light collided together. Unexpectedly, the Shadow Sword Light was actually just an illusory brilliance. It did not block the demon's attack at all, allowing the Blade Light Storm to sweep across. Rushing towards Shi Chishang.
The monster was startled at first, and then laughed strangely. Just as he was about to control the thousands of blades of light to cut Shi Chi into pieces with thousands of swords, the originally illusory and ethereal moonlight quietly solidified, and actually changed from virtual reality to reality in an instant. Thousands of swords slashed at him, tearing apart all the ghost energy around his body. Countless swords slashed at his body, causing the demon to howl in pain.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the monster's mist-like body shrank quietly and turned into a wisp of smoke that swept behind Shi Chi Shang. Just as it was about to invade his body and eat up the Yang Qi, Shi Chi Shang's back suddenly exploded with lightning, and two pieces The wings, which resembled aurora and thunder, spread out out of thin air. The demon couldn't avoid it and was hit by the thunder wings. In an instant, rolling thunder burst out, sending it flying away.
The demon was rushed more than a hundred meters away, covered in smoke, and almost had its own ghostly aura blown to pieces by the thunder power contained in the Extreme Shadow Thunder Wings.
Just as he stabilized his body, the demon roared angrily: "Damn it, this kid has mastered thunder spells!"
At this time, the demon finally broke free from the force of thousands of swords, but its whole body was covered with blood marks, its skin and flesh were turned upside down, and gray blood splashed or dripped out. It looked very embarrassed.
"Zhengyan, aren't you coming out yet?"
Seeing this, the demon couldn't help but roared: "They are three high-level ghost generals. If you don't help us, you will be killed by them later!"
"waste!"
A sound like thunder suddenly sounded from a corner of the cemetery. With a loud rumbling sound, a tombstone shattered and a burly figure climbed out of it.
"Zombie inflammation?" Ma Hanxue snorted and shouted, "Boy, be careful, I have heard of this guy's name. Although he did not participate in the competition to be the alternative clan leader, this guy is also very powerful."
Staring at the burly figure emerging from the ground, Shi Chishang frowned and asked, "What race is he?"
"Zombies!" Niu Sanshan also had serious eyes. With his rough personality, once he showed such an expression, it showed that the other party was really worthy of his attention.
After hearing about the opponent's race, Shi Chishang was also worried. He heard Ma Hanxue and Niu Sanshan say that there are three powerful tribes in the ghost world. In addition to the Tauren and Horse-faced tribes, the last tribe is the zombie tribe!
Among the three powerful tribes, the Tauren are physically strong and can fight with the Dragons. The Horse-faced tribe can use illusions to communicate with the gods and can transform reality from the virtual to the real. The zombies are the most terrifying. Although their physical bodies are slightly inferior to those of the Tauren, they can still cultivate. All kinds of spells, with the increase in power, are not inferior to those of the Ox-headed and Horse-faced clans.
