At the same time, Ling Ning's consciousness felt like falling into a dark pool. He could feel the strong resistance at the bottom of the water. He struggled desperately but could not return to the surface. Instead, he fell deeper and deeper until all the light disappeared.
He could clearly sense everything happening outside, and even felt that Qianmei'er was in danger, but there was nothing he could do!
"Why? Why can't Shi Jian use sword skills? What's going on? Did I lose again? It turns out that I am still so weak... No progress... But I am not willing to give in! Palace Master, are you here? where!"
Thinking of the Palace Master, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He called desperately, but got no response at all!
"So, did she abandon me too?"
Just when he was desperate, a conversation between two people suddenly came into his mind.
"Lord! Why don't you teach me sword skills? I will be weak if you do so!"
The woman's coquettish voice.
"Haha, didn't I already give you this sword? What other sword skills do you want?"
The man's voice was so familiar that Ling Ning recognized it as the man he had dreamed about.
"But I don't know how to use it! I don't know why I can't use any sword skills now. Is it unwilling to treat me as its master?"
"Fool, how could it be? Well, have you ever heard its sound with your heart?"
"What does it sound like?"
"Yes, the sword also has a spirit. Only by reaching the extreme of emptiness and keeping quiet can you hear its sound."
"So what if I hear its sound? Their sword skills are better than mine, but I will still lose!"
"Hahaha, what is the so-called sword skill? It's just created by others! Without sword skill, wouldn't you know how to use a sword? Only mediocre people need to practice according to other people's ways..."
The sound ended here, and Ling Ning was stunned. He had never listened carefully to Shi Jian's voice for a moment.
He closed his eyes and entered the realm of "quietness". He forgot about the fierce battle outside and where he was. He just wanted to call for his stone sword.
"... wake up... wake up..."
A gentle woman is calling him.
His consciousness returned to his real body in a daze, and he felt a coldness all over his body, which was the coldness before death.
He slowly opened his eyes, and the cheek of a peerless beauty came into view. Her hair hung down on her face, as if she could smell a faint fragrance.
"Mei'er?"
The woman in front of her looked very similar to Qian Meier, but she shook her head gently, and then whispered: "You will not die."
She pressed her palm on the bloody hole on his chest, and then the horrific wound healed quickly, and warmth returned to his body.
As his consciousness became clearer and clearer, the woman in front of him became darker and darker, until he sat up and the woman had completely disappeared.
"Is this a dream?"
He touched his healed chest and looked at the stone sword stuck in front of him, feeling dazed for a while.
Then he stood up, holding the hilt of his sword.
He could feel the call of the stone sword. It seemed to be telling something, but he never listened. He closed his eyes...
He finally heard the sound of Shi Jian...
The words of the figure in white in his dream recalled in his mind.
"This sword can break stars!"
Shi Jian's mood began to rise. He could feel its excitement, as if it was waiting for him to call its name! It seems like it has been waiting for this moment for thousands of years...
He opened his eyes suddenly!
"This sword...is called 'Broken Star'!"
In an instant, the shell of the stone sword began to peel off, and the dark blue sword body exuded a sharp cold air! It is as dazzling and moving as the bright stars in the summer sky, and as cold and suffocating as the ice in the abyss.
"Owner……"
Ling Ning couldn't help but shed tears. He heard it, finally heard it...
…
Qianmeier and the others watched the tentacles pouring in from the sky without any resistance. They all knew that the next moment would be the end of having their essence and blood sucked out, but there was nothing they could do!
The moment the tentacle approached, the sword flashed!
Thousands of tentacles seemed to have been frozen in time, and they all stopped!
Then, Ling Ning walked out slowly with a long sword in hand. Every time he took a step, an ice flower bloomed on the ground, and even the earth was frozen by the extreme cold!
He whispered the word "broken"!
Thousands of tentacles shattered into ice slag in an instant and disappeared into thin air!
"Impossible! Impossible! Ah ah ah!" Duan Jing's monster-like body let out a shocking roar!
"Ling Ning! You're still alive! That's great! That's great!"
Qianmei'er had already burst into tears. Although Xia and Lu were surprised by his "resurrection from the dead", they also wondered if his name was "Ah Qi"? Why did he become "Ling Ning" again? But then I thought about it and realized that "Ah Qi" must be a fake name.
Su Jiu saw him for the first time, and her face was slightly surprised. She obviously didn't know that there was such a master among her peers.
Ling Ning first smiled at Qian Meier and said, "I'll deal with this guy first."
Duan Jinghun was already furious. He roared wildly and prepared to release a rain of arrows from the sky!
But he still took a step slower and heard Ling Ning shout softly: "Broken Star·Star Fall!"
The dark blue long sword shot out, streaking across the night like a meteor, and everything the sword passed was frozen by ice!
"Uh-huh!"
In an instant, the long sword penetrated the huge body of a terrifying monster! The huge body was instantly frozen, and then the long sword struck a big crater on the ground with a "bang" without losing its remaining power!
Under the influence of the aftermath, Duan Jingxun's frozen body exploded with a "pop" like a collapsing snow mountain, and finally shattered into ice slag!
It was really amazing to break the fright, he actually escaped from the carrion in an instant! But with this blow, his entire lower body had disappeared. He struggled to crawl to Tiancan's side and bit down on Tiancan's throat. Before Tiancan died, he was eaten alive the next moment!
Ling Ning picked up the sword and walked to him, whispering: "Disgusting."
Duan Jinghun looked at him hatefully, and suddenly shouted and spit out dark green poisonous gas, which instantly enveloped Ling Ning!
"Brother Taoist, be careful of his Heaven Devouring Demonic Technique!" Xia Shiqing reminded quickly.
Ling Ning secretly used the poisonous gas of the "Shen Transformation Art" to injure him, but Duan Jinghun used the cover of the poisonous gas to rush forward and hug his legs. Countless tentacles crazily emerged from his body and began to desperately absorb his true energy!
While everyone was worrying about him, Ling Ning was not panicked. The long-lost voice of the Palace Master came to his mind.
"The Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique? Interesting! Hum, 'Ghost Path·Thirty-Three·Hungry Food'!"
Duan Jingxun was sucking in Ling Ning's true essence. He felt that his body was beginning to recover, but the next moment all the true essence in his body began to flow into Ling Ning's body in the opposite direction!
"Why... why... ahhhh!"
He subconsciously wanted to leave Ling Ning's body, but he was sucked into him instead!
Although he lost half of his body, the true energy he had devoured was still there, and he resisted desperately to no avail! I just said a few more fonts and lost more than half of my true energy!
In just a moment, the countless amounts of true energy he had absorbed over the past decades, as well as the huge reserves of true energy in the pill formation stage, were all sucked away. His whole body was like dried sugarcane bagasse. In the end, even the brilliance in his eyes disappeared, and he died. .
Ling Ning only felt a huge amount of true energy flowing into his body. He quickly ran the "Gui Zang" in the "Shen Transformation Art" to introduce the true energy into the sea of qi! After absorbing everything, his cultivation level actually reached the middle stage of pill building!
With his current amount of true energy, it has far exceeded that of ordinary monks in the elixir formation stage!
"Huh, it's just such a small amount of real energy, so I'm still looking forward to it a little bit."
The palace master's last words came to her mind, and she fell silent again.
Ling Ning took off the ring of Duan Jingxun and put it away, then put away his true energy.
The "Broken Star" was also wrapped in stone again and turned into a "Stone Sword".
After the poisonous gas dissipated, Ling Ning turned around and smiled at the four people who looked worried: "Sorry, it took a little time, but it's done!"
…
After everyone left, a person suddenly walked out of the quiet forest.
This man came to Duan Jingxun's body, only to see that Duan Jingxun was not dead yet!
The corners of his mouth trembled as if he were saying: "Help...save me..." Apparently this scheming guy was just pretending to be dead!
The man smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to pretend anymore. I know you want to lure me over and drain my true energy."
Duan Jingxun's eyes turned cold. He had indeed shown weakness on purpose just now to attract others to come forward.
"You'd better give me the 'Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique', otherwise I will do it myself!"
"Hmph, even a mere junior dares to do so! Ah!"
The man rushed forward and pressed his palm on Duan Jingxun's forehead.
"Search for souls!"
"Ah! Bastard!"
"Hehe, senior, please remember, I am a member of the Qing Sect, my surname is Zhong and my name is Kun. When you arrive at the Hall of the King of Hell, remember to report my name, hahaha!"
