Chapter 91 Chapter 90 Surprise
The wind and sand carried a hot breath, and the wind outside the formation was much stronger, all of which showed the tense and exciting atmosphere.
Gu Shiyan felt that his internal energy was constantly dissipating, and thought to himself that he was too careless.
When he first met his old friend in the capital, he noticed something unusual about him, but he didn't investigate further at the time, so he was tricked by them today.
He looked down at the moon-white robe on his body. The fabric embroidered with intricate patterns had been corroded beyond recognition by the black poisonous mist. However, this robe was specially picked for him by Mu Congmo. If Mu Congmo saw it, he would probably start nagging again.
Thinking of this, Gu Shiyan showed a helpless yet happy smile on his face.
Then he waved his hand casually, and the long sword on his waist floated in the sky, turning into a series of phantoms of long swords, floating around Gu Shiyan, ready for battle.
In this way, a small sword formation was born in the center of the formation formed by the three ancient artifacts.
Gu Shiyan sat cross-legged, put the sword back on his waist, closed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
He didn't seem to be worried at all that the other party could break through the sword formation.
But his heart was far from as calm as his appearance showed. He used his remaining internal strength to seal his tendons and veins, and at the same time forced the essence and blood in his body together. This was destined to be a long process. He could only hope that this sword formation could hold them off for a while longer.
This poison did not have any effect on Gu Shiyan's body. It seemed that the original poison in his body was more powerful, and this poison could only limit his use of internal force.
After an unknown amount of time, the surroundings were already filled with yellow sand, and from outside the formation one could often hear the sounds of swords clashing with each other, as well as the sound of horses' hooves stirring up yellow sand.
The slender figure in white in the formation had his eyes closed, and the shadow of the sword light beside him was still floating beside him, and the ancient long sword emitted a faint light.
The three people outside the formation looked at the voice inside with some fear. Master Jingkong said impatiently, "Is this poisonous body that has been nurtured for decades really any use? Judging from his appearance, it seems that he can still hold on for a long time."
Si Kou Hong didn't answer the question. Instead, Huan Zai, who was watching the show, couldn't help but sneer, "We can't even break through his sword formation these days. What's the matter, Master? Do you think you can beat him?"
The word "Master" sounded like sarcasm to Jingkong. He glared at Huan Zai fiercely, as if giving a warning.
But Huan Zai did not avoid his gaze, but looked straight at him, as if to provoke him.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was somewhat tense, Si Kou Hong stepped forward to mediate, "Our goal is just to trap him here. If it is not necessary, we should not harm his life."
Neither of them spoke. Hwan Jae crossed his arms over his chest with a cold look in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
As for Master Jingkong, he was twisting the Buddhist beads with one hand, and he looked kind and benevolent, but the murderous intent that was faintly revealed in his eyes exposed his true thoughts.
At this moment, Gu Shiyan in the formation slowly opened his eyes, and then a pressure spread from his body. The light emitted from the long sword became more conspicuous. Even though the sun was shining brightly, the brilliance on it was not weakened at all.
He stood up slowly, and the people outside the formation looked at his movements as if they were facing a great enemy.
They didn't know to what extent Gu Shiyan's cultivation had recovered, but the pressure from him made them dare not take it lightly, especially Huan Zai, who had fought with Gu Shiyan before.
Without exception, they all held in their hands the secret treasures that they were proud of.
This formation was originally created by the secret treasure in their hands. Otherwise, it would not have been able to trap Gu Shiyan for so long.
In the current situation, they dared not be careless and were trying their best to activate the secret treasures in their hands.
As they moved, the formation covering Gu Shiyan became apparent.
The young man in white in the formation looked at the formation covering him with some impatience, and swung out a sword light.
Following a cracking sound, a crack appeared on the formation.
The expressions of the three people outside the formation were a little surprised. Huan Zai and Jing Kong looked at Si Kou Hong at the same time, with a hint of questioning in their eyes.
Sikou Hong was also a little shocked. The method of cultivating the poisonous body was recorded in ancient books, and there was no possibility of error.
What's more, this formation was jointly set up by the three masters of the Free and Easy Realm, not to mention the support of three secret treasures.
He lowered his eyes as if thinking about something, until he accidentally caught sight of the scarlet light emanating from the long sword in Gu Shiyan's hand. He looked a little stunned and shouted, "Are you crazy? The sword-cultivation technique is a forbidden technique of your Yunliang Qianchi. If you are not careful, you will never be able to use your internal energy again."
"Besides, we only want to trap you here, not take your life. If you were doing this for Mu Congmo, the dust would have settled by now. Even if you escaped, it would be too late. Is it really worth it?"
Gu Shiyan's face was a little pale. This secret technique was to transfer all the blood and essence in his body to the Broken Rainbow Sword, using his body to nourish the sword. His body was a little weak now.
"Although I don't think the King Ping you mentioned can threaten Mu Congmo, I still want to face such things with him." A light laugh was heard.
The next second, a long sword was drawn out from its scabbard, carrying a scarlet blood light. After circling around Gu Shiyan's side, Gu Shiyan stretched out a hand and pointed it straight into the sky. The long sword went up with the momentum. For a moment, some clouds and mist appeared in the formation, mixed with fine lightning.
I saw the long sword in the air piercing through the ancient bamboo slips, the purple-gold book, and the relic emitting golden light one by one.
As the shadows of the three secret treasures above his head dissipated, the formation condensed above Gu Shiyan's head also disintegrated.
The three people outside the formation all spat out a mouthful of blood. The bright red blood dripped onto the yellow sand and was soon swept away by the newly blown sand. They looked at the secret treasures in their hands with some disbelief. Without exception, cracks of varying degrees appeared on their respective secret treasures.
Not far away in the yellow sand, a tall figure in white was slowly walking towards them, saying in a sharp tone, "If anything really happens to him, then no matter where you are, just wait and see."
After saying that, he wanted to get up and leave, but the remaining three people would never let him go so easily.
Especially Master Jingkong, a trace of murderous intent flashed across his face, and then he decisively took a step towards Gu Shiyan and came in front of the other party.
I saw golden light emanating from his hands, and then he swung his hands out.
But Gu Shiyan dodged this attack easily, and then Master Jingkong swung out a few more palms.
What is somewhat puzzling is that Gu Shiyan just kept dodging the attacks and did not choose to fight back.
Seeing this, the remaining two people exchanged glances, and then attacked Gu Shiyan in an instant.
The four of them didn't know how long they had been fighting like this. The internal energy in their bodies had decreased a lot, especially Gu Shiyan. Not only did his face become paler, but many tiny beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
The sword-cultivation book he had read previously had caused great damage to his body. Coupled with the fact that the poison in his body was showing signs of attacking, he was somewhat exhausted and could hardly even see the people around him.
He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and once again mobilized the remaining blood and essence in his body, and the scarlet light appeared on the sword again.
The sharp sword blade was mixed with scarlet, which was a bit creepy.
The next second, Gu Shiyan's figure appeared in front of Jingkong like a ghost. While the other party was still unable to react, Gu Shiyan stabbed him with his sword.
Jingkong was shocked. He wanted to resist, but Gu Shiyan did not give him such a chance.
Fortunately, the relic he carried with him was spiritual and actually blocked the attack.
Gu Shiyan glanced at the golden relic blocking the tip of the sword, and did not choose to stop there, but increased the strength in his hand.
Suddenly, a lot of fine powder appeared in the air, making it difficult to tell whether it was yellow sand or something else.
Looking at the long sword in Gu Shiyan's hand, the relic blocking Jingkong's body had turned into powder at some point. The long sword was covered with bright red blood and pierced through Jingkong's chest.
Seeing that the long sword was stained with blood, Gu Shiyan frowned slightly, looking a little disgusted.
He did not put the sword back into the scabbard, but walked straight to Huan Zai, with a proud look in his eyes and murderous intent all around him.
But if you look closely, you will find that Gu Shiyan's steps are a little unsteady.
With Jingkong's experience as a lesson, Huan Zai immediately summoned the Purple Lotus Sacred Book. The heavy, ancient book emanated a purple-golden light. Gu Shiyan's face was expressionless as he casually swung his sword.
At this moment, a figure quietly groped to the side of Gu Shiyan. The bamboo slips in his hand also emitted light, and a spell attacked Gu Shiyan.
Gu Shiyan did not notice the other party approaching. When he reacted, it was too late to stop him.
At this moment, a white horse with shiny fur was galloping towards here. Seeing this, the person on the horse jumped off the horse and stood directly in front of Gu Shiyan.
After seeing who was coming, a hint of surprise appeared on Gu Shiyan's face, but more of it was joy.
Without giving them time to reminisce, the attack had already come towards them. Gu Shiyan stretched out his hand to pull Mu Congmo behind him, but Mu Congmo had the same idea.
He held Gu Shiyan in his arms so that the attack hit his back.
The imagined pain did not bring him any reward. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was protected by a white light curtain.
Then, Si Kou Hong's exasperated voice was heard, with a hint of disbelief in it, "Are you crazy? You gave all your life force to him."
Mu Congmo was a little confused, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he looked up and down at Gu Shiyan. Seeing that his face was pale and his body was thinner, he couldn't help but feel heartache in his eyes.
But Gu Shiyan didn't say anything. He had no strength left and couldn't see the scene around him. He fell asleep in his lover's arms.
