The sword in the armored old man's hand was like the shining sun, piercing Luo Yiyi who was closest to him.
For a time, most of the mission area was illuminated by this dazzling light.
At this moment, even Xiao Zhi, who was fighting outside three hundred miles away, felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
The attack that could make him feel Xinji definitely couldn't be an ordinary attack.
"Luo Yiyi! Get away!" Xiao Zhi shouted.
However, Luo Yiyi did not dodge, nor could she dodge. She held the magic iron heavy sword in her hand and slashed a black sword energy like a demon with her fangs and claws at the armored old man in front of her!
The head-to-head confrontation between Luo Yiyi and the armored old man determined the winner in an instant.
Luo Yiyi's body flashed with light, and she screamed and fell from the sky.
"Yiyi!" Lu Zhong shouted and rushed towards Luo Yiyi, with an expression that was about to split his eyes.
However, his current situation is also very bad.
Large areas of blue-gray mildew appeared on his body, and a rotten aura emanated from his body.
This is still when he activates the defensive magic [Defensive Mountains].
It can be seen that dense blue-gray mildew spots appear on the layers of shadows of the mountains around him.
This curse of Rumpelstiltskin can even erode the strange phenomena that appear when the defensive magic is turned on!
At this moment, Zhao Yan used the power of the law of space, teleported and appeared not far from the armored old man, and then unleashed his most powerful killing move - [Breaking Sky Sword Technique]!
In an instant, countless dazzling sword lights bloomed around him, turning into a rain of swords and attacking the armored old man.
At this time, the armored old man exuded a strong and holy light, which seemed more dazzling than the sun. Facing Zhao Yan's powerful killing move, a disdainful sneer appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth and spat out a few words. They all had syllables they couldn't understand at all.
He temporarily gave up chasing Luo Yiyi and instead stabbed Zhao Yan with his sword.
When he thrust out his sword, it was like a supernova explosion, bursting out with endless light.
The sword energy that hit him like rain melted away instantly when it encountered this strong light, just like the ice and snow under the bright sun.
Seeing that Zhao Yan was about to be stabbed by this shocking sword, at this moment, Zhao Yan's face turned pale, and his eyes were fixed on the sword stabbing him, his eyes full of despair.
At this moment, purple light flashed, and a figure appeared beside Zhao Yan out of thin air.
The moment this figure appeared, there was a loud shout. He held a dark sword in both hands and slashed at the sword that was thrust towards him.
The swords struck each other, making a loud bang.
Under this blow, space ripples appeared visible to the naked eye.
The figure holding the knife only took a small step back and then stood firm.
The armored old man groaned, and the light on his body became dim, and he was thrown back like a piece of rag.
The figure holding the knife chased him like a shadow. While chasing, he shouted: "Back off! Stay away from me! I will deal with them!"
The sword-wielding figure who suddenly appeared next to Zhao Yan and defeated the armored old man with one strike was Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi exchanged positions with Zi Ji Dao and came to support in time. At the critical moment, he saved Zhao Yan's life, and then he continued to kill the armored old man with the knife.
There was a hint of fear on the face of the armored old man, and by throwing him backwards, he fled into the distance at an incredible speed.
However, the armored old man was faster, and Xiao Zhi was even faster.
Soon, Xiao Zhi had caught up with him and struck him with another killing move [Xuan Shui Knife].
The armored old man resisted with his sword, but he was still staggered back by the crack. The ancient armor he was wearing was torn apart, and one of his arms was torn along with the ancient armor.
There was a hissing sound at the fracture, black smoke billowed, and thick black water gurgled out.
The old face of the armored old man was deformed in pain, but he gritted his teeth and did not scream.
After this killing move, the armored old man immediately changed his flight direction, no longer fleeing into the sky, but instead fled toward the bloody vortex not far away.
It seemed that he wanted to escape back to his own world through the bloody vortex.
"Want to escape?!" Xiao Zhi snorted coldly and continued to chase after the armored old man.
After he was ready to prepare his killing move, he hit the [Xuanshui Sword] again without hesitation, and struck the armored old man.
Under the lock of the killing move, the armored old man's flying speed suddenly dropped sharply.
The next moment, a black alms bowl emerged out of thin air, spinning and rising in the wind, pressing down like Mount Tai, shrouding Xiao Zhi and the armored old man in it.
The huge black alms bowl hung in the air, trembling slightly.
Several Rumpelstiltskin flew towards the black alms bowl, trying to destroy it.
However, what they are good at is only curses, and their destructive power is really average. They cannot break the black alms bowl at all, but only leave patches of mottled blue-gray mildew on the black alms bowl.
There was a dazzling sword light, and Zhao Yan used his most powerful killing move - [Breaking Sky Sword Technique], tearing a Rumpelstiltskin into pieces that tried to attack him.
Immediately afterwards, another Rumpelstiltskin was killed by his killing move [Air-Breaking Sword Technique].
Luo Yiyi's body was still flashing with light, rolling in pain on the ground, and the demonic energy on her body had become increasingly thinner.
Lu Zhong's body was now covered with blue-gray mold, and his whole body exuded a strong sense of decay. His aura also fell from the First God Realm to the Demigod Realm, and then to the Nascent Soul Realm.
The curse was rapidly eroding his body, depriving him of his vitality, making his body visibly shriveled, just like a mummy.
After Zhao Yan killed two Rumpelstiltskin from a distance with the [Air-Breaking Sword Technique] he mastered, he was finally targeted by the remaining Rumpelstiltskin.
Even though he mastered the laws of space and was very good at speed, he was still accidentally cursed by Rumpelstiltskin, and an ugly blue-gray mildew stain quickly appeared on his handsome face.
At this moment, the black alms bowl hanging in mid-air finally stopped trembling slightly, and instead collapsed into an extremely dense black mist.
】
Holding a black sword in his hand, Xiao stepped out from the black mist, swung the sword casually, and struck a Rumpelstiltskin not far away like lightning...
Not long after, on the ground, the Dharma of the Great Powerful Heavenly King, transformed by the Yuan Shen Xiao Zhi, was using the ability of 'speaking with Dharma' to expel the curse on Lu Zhong.
At this time, Lu Zhong was like a mummy, his body was blue-grey, thin and stiff, and the god-level aura that was originally as deep as the sea was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.
It can be seen that his current situation is very bad.
Only those who have experienced the curse of Rumpelstiltskin will know the horror of this curse.
Fortunately, the dispersal of the mighty king's dharma was still very effective. Under its dispersion, the blue-gray color on Lu Zhong's body was peeling off piece by piece, and his weak energy was also strengthening little by little.
Not far from Lu Zhong, there were two huge blocks of ice the size of houses.
Those frozen in the ice are Zhao Yan and Luo Yiyi.
Zhao Yan also suffered the curse of Rumpelstiltskin. In order to prevent his condition from deteriorating like Lu Zhong, Xiao Zhi gave an order to the demon Li Kuo through his consciousness, asking Li Kuo to use the ice and snow law to temporarily freeze Zhao Yan. stand up.
Luo Yiyi's situation was similar. Although she was not cursed by Rumplestiltskin, the armored old man's killing blow was enough for her. Although her condition did not get worse, it was not optimistic, so, Xiao Zhi also asked Li Kuo to freeze her to prevent possible deterioration.
A moment later, Lu Zhong recovered from his near-death state under the careful treatment of the mighty king.
After Lu Zhong recovered, his face was pale and his breath was a little sluggish. He said with a concerned look on his face: "It's too terrible. This curse is really terrible. My body and soul are vulnerable to this curse. If it weren't for you, Brother Zhi, I would definitely die after receiving this curse."
Xiao Zhi was asking Li Kuo to unfreeze Zhao Yan and prepare to remove the curse from Zhao Yan. He comforted him: "It's okay, everything is over. Have a good rest. Although I have already removed the curse on you." The curse has been completely removed, but the damage caused by this curse to your body and soul cannot be recovered so quickly, and it needs to be nursed back to health slowly."
Zhao Yan's situation is slightly better than Lu Zhong's.
Not long after, the curse on Zhao Yan was completely dispelled by the mighty king Dharma.
Zhao Yan, who had recovered, also had a frightened expression on his face and said: "This time, if Brother Zhi hadn't rescued you in time, the three of us would have been wiped out by the group. We are still too weak. In the face of a real crisis, Totally vulnerable, I'm sorry, Brother Zhi, to disappoint you."
Xiao Zhi smiled and patted Zhao Yan on the shoulder and said, "You have done a good enough job. It's okay. Just take your time. When you become stronger, this situation won't happen again."
With that said, he asked Li Kuo to defrost Luo Yiyi.
Li Kuo, whose self-awareness was suppressed by the sentient system, nodded expressionlessly. When he was about to thaw Luo Yiyi, he saw that the huge ice block that sealed Luo Yiyi suddenly cracked, and then, dense cracks appeared. , all over the ice.
Then there was a bang and the ice cubes exploded.
Among the ice and snow splashing all over the sky, Luo Yiyi appeared and walked towards Xiao Zhi and the others.
'What a fast self-healing speed. Xiao Zhi looked at Luo Yiyi who was walking over, with a strange expression on his face.
An expression of joy appeared on Lu Zhong's face: "Yiyi, you actually healed yourself."
Luo Yiyi nodded and said: "Yes, it has healed itself. This Dark Holy Body of mine is still very good. Since having it, my self-healing ability has obviously become much stronger."
Zhao Yan said with some envy on the side: "It doesn't matter that the little monster's curse is ineffective on you. You were so seriously injured and you recovered so quickly. It makes me think that all such original magical powers have come out."
Luo Yiyi pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Yes, you can also get one. Anyway, your original magical power is still in the planning stage, and you still have the opportunity to choose."
"Let me think about it..." Zhao Yan touched his nose.
Lu Zhong glanced at the bloody vortex above his head and said to Xiao Zhi: "Brother Zhi, when you came to support us this time, were there any monsters that emerged from the bloody whirlpool you were stationed at? What if? If there is one, we have to clean it up quickly, lest it become more powerful after adapting to the rules of our environment and become difficult to deal with."
Xiao Zhi said calmly: "Yes, that is also a human from the alien world. He is wearing a robe and holds a scepter in his hand. His energy is stronger than that of the armored old man."
"Where is he?" Zhao Yan couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but cast a vigilant glance around him.
Xiao Zhi said: "He only stayed in our mission area for a very short time, then flew back to the bloody whirlpool, and then never appeared again."
Zhao Yan said: "It seems that he was frightened by the fierce strength you showed, Brother Zhi. He was so frightened that he quickly fled our world and went back to his hometown."
"That should be the case." Lu Zhong nodded and said, "However, this is the first time I have encountered an intruder like this who can't defeat us players and knows how to retreat."
Xiao Zhi said: "To be precise, it should be: this is the first time we have encountered such an intruder with extremely high intelligence and self-awareness. The intruders we have encountered before, regardless of their strength, , I think they are more like chess pieces and cannon fodder used to charge into the battle, and the armored old man we met this time, and the guy who saw the situation was not good and retreated to the bloody vortex, I feel that the two of them are different."
Lu Zhong frowned slightly and said, "Brother Zhi, do you think the two of them might be chess players hiding behind the chess pieces?"
"It's possible." Xiao Zhi nodded and said, "Even if you are not a chess player, at least you are better than the cannon fodder we have encountered before."
Xiao Zhi and others gathered together and discussed for a while.
There was a little color on Lu Zhong's face and he said: "No matter what, the mission must continue. Yiyi, Zhao Yan, let's go, we have to continue to guard the bloody whirlpool we are responsible for."
"Okay." Zhao Yan and Luo Yiyi both nodded.
When the three of them were about to return to the bloody whirlpool where they were stationed, Xiao Zhi suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute."
Lu Zhong, Zhao Yan and Luo Yiyi all stopped and looked at Xiao Zhi.
Xiao Zhi originally wanted to tell them not to go there and just stay here.
But when the words came to his lips, he changed his words again: "After you have passed, go back a little further, and then go back a thousand feet."
"Okay." Lu Zhong nodded to express his understanding, and Zhao Yan and Luo Yiyi also nodded.
Xiao Zhi handed the Ziji Sword, which was surrounded by purple mist, to Zhao Yan and said, "Take this, remember, your life is important, don't show off."
"Okay, I know." Zhao Yan stretched out his hands and solemnly took the Ziji Sword from Xiao Zhi.
