"The Lord is here."
The black river water was blown by the strong wind and hit the small wooden boat. The boat was shaking violently, and it seemed that it was in danger of capsizing at any time.
The strong wind mixed with the black rain blew over, but Xia Zhichan was blocked by an invisible wall just one foot in front of her. On the other hand, Nan Er has completely turned into a drowned rat.
Roar!
It was like a huge boulder rolling down from the top of a mountain, crushing it all the way and making a deafening sound. What kind of roar could that beast make? Even the most ferocious liger in the mountains and forests could only retreat obediently in front of such a roar, not daring to act recklessly.
"What's coming?"
Nan Er struggled several times to get up, but he could not stabilize his body at all. The black river water kept hitting his face and body, and then gathered into water lines and flowed down. Seeing Xia Zhichan strolling around, he couldn't help but blame himself for being useless.
"Hold on, don't fall."
Xia Zhichan waved his sleeves and raised his right hands to form a sword.
A drop of rain fell from the sky. When the raindrop fell to a certain place, it was suddenly cut into two sides by an inexplicable force.
One sword cut through the rain curtain.
The roars coming from all around became more intense, and the rain falling from the sky became more rapid. The raindrops that were originally only the size of rice grains gradually grew in size, from the size of mung beans to the size of jujube grains.
Bang bang bang, bang bang bang. The rapid rain curtain and the invisible sword energy collided with each other, making a violent sound.
Xia Zhichan frowned for the first time. He could not feel the slightest evil spirit from the torrential rain. This opponent is not like the monsters he usually encounters. If he keeps fighting, he will definitely lose.
The left hand pinches the sword technique to activate the invisible sword energy spreading from the palm of the hand.
The severed rain curtain disappeared in an instant, and the entire sky was cleaned by the invisible sword energy at that moment, spotless.
Xia Zhichan stamped his right foot on the ground and rose into the air.
A huge tentacle covered with scales stretched out from the black clouds in the sky. Even the tip of the tentacle was the size of a water tank, and it hit Xia Zhichan's head with great force.
The strong wind blew down, squeezing down the small wooden boat and the surrounding river water, forming a semicircular depression.
"Jump ship!"
Xia Zhichan's voice followed the sound of the wind and came down from the sky.
"Ah! Damn it..."
Seeing this, Nan Er could only curse a few times. He let go of his left hand and slapped the floor of the wooden boat hard with his palm. The place where it was slapped was directly broken and sunken, with several twisted cracks covering it. The planks of the boat.
With the force of the counter-shock, his whole body was like a fishing osprey, diving into the black river water almost in the blink of an eye.
Bang!
In the sky, the invisible sword in Xia Zhichan's palm collided with the tip of the black tentacle. For a while, there were still sparks flying out, and Xia Zhichan's original upward momentum was completely suppressed.
Xia Zhichan gritted her teeth and desperately activated all the invisible sword energy in her body, trying to compete with this tentacle of unknown origin.
But that black tentacle was like a mountain. No matter how hard Xia Zhichan, an ant, tried to stimulate his true energy, he could not shake it at all.
The energy gradually dried up, and the cold rain hit Xia Zhichan's cheeks and sleeves. That cold feeling was like the last sign before declaring defeat. That meant that Xia Zhichan no longer had the energy to distract himself from using the Water Avoidance Technique, and all his thoughts and energy were devoted to wrestling with the black tentacles.
Xia Zhichan's figure that was originally in the air was slowly pressed down again. Finally, at the moment of exhaustion, he still knew that he could not resist the huge force on the tentacles with his flesh and blood body.
The jadeite on his waist flashed fluorescently.
Bang! The huge tentacle fell, shattering the small wooden boat below and sending waves several feet high into the surrounding black river water.
And Xia Zhichan has disappeared.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
What emerged from the black river surface was Nan Er, who had just plunged into the water. He kept spitting out the bitter river water that had been poured into his mouth. After barely stabilizing himself in the water, he quickly went to look for Xia Zhichan. body shape.
Heaven, no.
In the water, there is none.
"Xia Zhichan! Are you dead?" Nan Er shouted, and suddenly saw the blurry image of a red boat emerging from the clouds in the distance. He hurriedly rushed towards the red boat that appeared inexplicably.
The boat was conjured by Xia Zhichan using a red wine gourd. Even in Nan Er's eyes, the red boat was very conspicuous; in front of the monster, it was like a dead leaf falling into the water, there was nothing strange about it.
"Come on, come up."
Xia Zhichan stretched out her hand to pull Nan Er up, looking at the gray world with solemn eyes. After he used jade to escape the attack of the tentacle, he found that the other party did not rush to pursue him. Instead, even the rapid rain on the river stopped.
He pursed his lips and looked at Nan Er who looked like a drowned rat. After a while, he said:
"Nan Er, you stay here, this ship will take you to the other side safely."
"What do you mean, are you still going to fight that monster?"
Nan Er looked at Xia Zhichan as if he were a madman. When he thought of that terrifying black tentacle, his hand couldn't stop trembling even if he held the knife with all his strength. That is definitely not something that human beings can compete with:
"Don't be ridiculous. You and I can't compete with that kind of thing. If you go, you will die. Why bother?"
"I am a spiritual officer. Do you know what a spiritual officer is?"
Xia Zhichan stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the calm river surface not far away amid the gray clouds and mist. If it weren't for the fact that there were still a few fragments of the previous wooden boat floating on the river, it would have been as if nothing had happened.
No one knows how terrifying evil monsters are hidden under the calm black water.
There was hesitation in his eyes, and he also thought about giving up, but in the end all the hesitation settled down, leaving only the determination as sharp as a sword in his eyes.
He did not wait for Nan Er's answer, but waved his sleeves and the robe floated out, and the voice came back to Nan Er's ears:
"Since my ancestor, I have a lineage of spiritual officials who do not seek immortality or worship Buddha."
Xia Zhichan landed on a broken wooden board floating on the river.
"Practice all the way, just for..."
Using both hands to perform the sword technique, the black and white mysterious robe began to glow in an instant, and two rays of light, one black and one white, merged into the swords in Xia Zhichan's hands.
"Conquer the demon!"
As soon as the four words came out, the empty sword energy surged out. For a moment, even the gloomy dark clouds in the sky were torn open several times, and a few rays of sunshine secretly fell down, giving this turbid world a glimmer of clarity. .
"Hey! Don't seek death!"
Nan Er wanted to rush out, but his body hit the invisible walls around the red boat. No matter how hard he knocked, he would be bounced back by a force. That invisible wall couldn't cut off the sound, but it could completely confine Nan Er to the small boat.
He watched Xia Zhichan's figure disappear into the gray mist, and he could no longer see clearly.
The boat under my feet moved automatically without oars, slowly drifting towards the river bank.
…
Xia Zhichan floated quietly on the black river water with a wooden board. He used a colorless brush to tear apart the suppressed colors between heaven and earth. The gray clouds and mists in the sky were dispersed, and the black water in the river was also driven away by invisible forces.
The sword energy in his left hand was rendered by the fluorescence emitted from the mysterious robe, like a drop of black ink dripping into colorless water. The invisible sword slowly turned into a black visible sword.
The same goes for the right hand, except it's covered in white. The white color is like a free cloud that occasionally floats across the blue sky. It is tangible and qualitative but cannot be seen clearly. It is illusive and illusory and appears and disappears.
One black, one white.
Completely opposite, but still sharp and sharp.
Xia Zhichan drew down with his left hand, and the black sword energy fell into the black river water. They are all black, but they are different blacks. When the sword energy fell into the river, it was like a hill falling into it. Countless river waters rolled back and surged away in all directions.
Underfoot, the black hard river bottom was actually exposed.
He lowered his body and looked at the several-foot-high waves forming a wall of water not far away. The area within ten feet of him was like a restricted area set up by the River God. Not even a drop of water dared to come near.
"It's time to come out..."
Xia Zhichan raised his head and smiled, the red color at the corner of his mouth was so conspicuous. But he didn't care, and didn't even bother to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
In the clouds and mist in the sky, the huge black tentacle that forced Xia Zhichan to use jade to escape with just one blow appeared again. It swayed and seemed to feel a little uncomfortable with the little ant below who dared to fight for its life. Surprised.
The tips of the tentacles swayed, stirring up the clouds and mist in the sky, forming a huge vortex. Seeing the past from Xia Zhichan's perspective, it was like a bottomless black hole appeared in the sky.
"It's a pity that if I had known that I would encounter such a big monster today, I wouldn't have dared to use the 'Wine Immortal' to kill the Bone Corpse Demon..."
Xia Zhichan took a deep breath and murmured to himself.
The Immortal in Wine is an unrivaled killing move, but Xia Zhichan's Qi is weak, and he cannot do instant sword moves like his ancestor Yan Chixia. He can only accumulate sword Qi in his Dantian and mix it with red. The special aroma of alcohol in the red wine gourd slowly condensed into the sword of the Immortal in Wine.
Xia Zhichan's trick to deal with the Bone Corpse Demon was the result of a whole year's work. Otherwise, he would not be able to easily kill a Bone Corpse Demon with at least two to three hundred years of cultivation as a half-hearted spiritual officer.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to encounter everything in the world after you have calculated it, and it is impossible to proceed according to your plans and predictions.
Things are unpredictable.
But there is another saying from our ancestors, that is: fighting against the sky is endless fun!
Xia Zhichan stamped his feet on the hard ground, and his whole body turned into a black and white light and rushed straight into the black hole in the sky.
Snapped! With the sound of breaking wind, a life-threatening black tentacle emerged from the clouds, carrying the strong wind and falling on Xia Zhichan's head like a collapsing hill.
The black and white swords intertwined, leaving two extremely thin rays of light in the sky.
"Edict!"
The black and white light flourished, Xia Zhichan shouted loudly, and the sword energy in his hands breathed out a three-foot-long sword light. As the two palms intertwined, the sword collided with the falling tentacle.
The sword light pierced into the tentacles, and countless scales fell down like raindrops, hitting the river water and making a dull sound when they landed on the hard ground.
Roar!
The roar appeared again, this time it was louder than all the previous ones combined. The sound was louder than thunder in the sky, and it could be heard by people living hundreds of miles away.
Roar!
The sound almost turned into substance and the blade pierced into Xia Zhichan's ears. He screamed in pain in a low voice, and blood flowed from his ears.
His eyes widened with anger, and the golden crown on his head suddenly glowed with golden light. The sound that was originally like thunder was swallowed up by an unknown force in an instant. Several cracks as thin as spider silk appeared on the inconspicuous edge of the Tongtian Crown.
"Cough cough cough..."
After several coughs, drops of blood were sprinkled in the air.
The tentacle that had been slashed with two deep sword marks waved it hard again. Xia Zhichan barely broke free and took the opportunity to move the jadeite on her waist again.
A flash of inspiration.
The tentacle flew into the air and swung towards a place filled with clouds and mist again.
Xia Zhichan's figure emerged from it, and he was hit by the sudden blow before he could steady himself. The strong wind swept Xia Zhichan's whole body and hit the ground.
With a bang, Xia Zhichan was hit to the ground. Not to mention a person, even a piece of fine steel can be directly beaten into powder at this time.
Fortunately, Xia Zhichan has a magic weapon to protect her body. The peculiar black and white mysterious robe on her body is both offensive and defensive. Although she just activated the black and white sword energy to draw out a large amount of fairy energy from the magic weapon, relying on the profound knowledge of this magic weapon, she can still protect her body. Xia Zhichan resisted most of the damage.
Xia Zhichan was lying on the ground, and the tentacle did not take the opportunity to kill him. Instead, it fell back under the river and disappeared.
"Hahaha cough...haha..."
Xia Zhichan couldn't help laughing. It was clear that every bone in his body was feeling unbearable pain, but he still had to laugh.
I don’t know if I’m laughing at others or myself.
At this time, the clouds and mist in the sky were driven away by something, and a huge black cloud appeared in front of Xia Zhichan's eyes, completely covering the sky in front of him.
The sky opened a pair of eyes.
