117 This magical weapon can only exchange one's body for another's body, one's life for another's life
The black figure had no facial features at first, and his skin was as black as charcoal, but slowly it developed color and facial features that were still passable.
Finally, the black mist completely turned into a normal human being, a muscular, tall man.
The man's upper body was completely naked, and his lower body was wrapped in hard black armor.
The man slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes, which were exactly the same as Gui Tong's.
He looked a bit like Gui Tong, but he didn't have Gui Tong's handsome look.
Gui Miao stopped playing the bamboo flute and bowed respectfully to the man: "Welcome to His Majesty the Ghost King, you are finally back."
Ghost King?
Ji Chen looked at the strange man who was called "Ghost King" with vigilance.
No wonder he looks so much like Gui Tong.
At this moment, the Ghost King's eyes were filled with endless hatred, but his face showed a sly smile.
He didn't care about Gui Miao, and his eyes were only on Gui Tong, "My good son, this is the fate of you betraying me!"
The voice was cold and hoarse, as if it came from the depths of hell.
In an instant, he waved his hands, and a thick black mist surged out of his body, quickly condensing into a huge black claw, flashing with cold light, and rushing towards Gui Tong at an astonishing speed.
Faced with this sudden attack, Gui Tong did not retreat.
He flashed and dodged the attack of the Ghost King's claws.
The hoarse voice of the Ghost King broke out from the surging mist again: "Do you think it's enough to dodge? Hehehe——"
In an instant, the black mist claws rushed down with an unstoppable momentum, as if to tear everything apart, and rushed straight to where Ji Chen was behind Gui Tong!
"Bang——"
After the claws touched the double barrier protecting Ji Chen, they instantly shattered the barrier!
Gui Tong and Xue Wuxi shouted at the same time: "Not good!"
At this critical moment, Li Yuan offered a spiritual light in his hand, which turned into a shield to block Ji Chen.
The sharp black claws hit the shield, emitting a dazzling light and a deafening sound.
A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Li Yuan's mouth, but his eyes were still firm.
"Run!!!!" Li Yuan gritted his teeth and said to Ji Chen behind him.
The leisurely and contented posture just now was no longer there.
Because everyone knows that the strength of the Ghost King is definitely ten times that of Nangong Suo.
But Ji Chen is not the kind of person who retreats in the face of a battle, not to mention that Li Yuan has been seriously injured for him.
He was about to use "Nian Chen" to counterattack, but he saw Gui Miao put the bamboo flute to his lips again. As the sound of the flute sounded, he couldn't move at all.
Li Yuan soon couldn't hold on, but fortunately Gui Tong and Xue Wuxi arrived in time and helped Li Yuan barely block the attack of the Ghost King.
Seeing this, the Ghost King laughed wildly: "You bunch of ants, do you think you can stop me like this?"
As he spoke, the black mist on his body became thicker, and the space around him became distorted.
The fierce poison barrier spread rapidly to the surroundings with him as the center.
Wherever it went, all the flowers, plants and trees withered.
Moreover, this poison barrier was still spreading rapidly to the center of the town. By then, all the people in Shangjing City would be corroded into bones!
Xue Wuxi naturally couldn't bear to see the people suffer such hardships, so he could only say to Guitong: "You hold on, I'll go save people."
Guitong's eyes flashed with a cold look, and he angrily scolded Xue Wuxi: "Who is more important, Master or others?"
"Master is of course more important than anyone else, but now... I believe you can protect him."
After leaving this sentence, Xue Wuxi turned and left.
Gui Tong did not stop him.
After Xue Wuxi left the original place, he flew in the air, holding a sword in his hand, and used the frosty power of the sword to help dispel the poison.
But he was not proficient in healing and dispelling, so he could only help a few people. Most people were still corroded by the poison, and the whole city was flooded with blood.
When he was in trouble, Xue Wuxi suddenly heard a burst of birds singing.
Looking up, Jiang Shengyu was standing on his mount, the phoenix, flying towards Xue Wuxi.
Fu Changgeng followed him.
Before Xue Wuxi and Jiang Shengyu could explain the situation, Jiang Shengyu frowned, took out a bead emitting a green glow from his arms, and threw it into the sky.
The beads released a soft light, and the bright red color within sight was dispersed by warm green full of vitality.
The poison barrier disappeared in an instant, and was completely purified.
The people below thought they had met a god, and they all knelt down to thank him.
Xue Wuxi had no time to talk to Jiang Shengyu, and only said to Chang Geng: "Did you bring the "Death and Life Cauldron"? "
"I brought it, Master. "
When Jiang Shengyu heard about the "Death and Life Cauldron", he immediately said, "I asked you to borrow this cauldron, but you refused. Now you want to use it. Is it for Ji Chen?"
"Yes." Xue Wuxi answered without hesitation, "I stopped you at the beginning because I wanted to save your life. This magic weapon can only exchange one's body for another's, and your life for another's. Besides, your cultivation is not enough, so there is a high probability that you will never come back."
"So you want to exchange your body for Ji Chen's?"
Xue Wuxi was silent, but Fu Changgeng refused, "No! Master, you can't do this!"
"Give me the cauldron! Now this is the only way to defeat the Ghost King!"
"Ghost King?!" Jiang Shengyu was surprised: "Wasn't he killed by the Immortal Lord of the Upper Realm a long time ago? How could he be resurrected?"
Xue Wuxi didn't want to explain, and knew that there was no time to explain, so he attacked Fu Changgeng directly, and took the storage bag from his waist with a sword.
Then he took the storage bag and flew back quickly. He was going back to find Ji Chen.
There was no other way, Jiang Shengyu and Fu Changgeng could only follow him.
On Ji Chen's side, Li Yuan had already fainted and fell to the ground because he was injured by the Ghost King.
Ji Chen was also controlled by Gui Miao's flute sound.
Only Gui Tong was left, still entangled with the Ghost King.
The two seemed to be fighting hard, but in fact, Ghost Eye was at an absolute disadvantage.
His clothes were torn by the black mist claws emitted by the Ghost King, and the wounds on his body became more and more, but none of them could heal.
Blood continued to flow out of his body. Although he knew that it was only a matter of time before he was killed by the Ghost King, he still refused to give up.
This was the scene that Xue Wuxi saw when he arrived.
His eyes dimmed, and he rushed towards Ji Chen without saying a word.
Jiang Shengyu and Fu Changgeng followed closely behind.
After Xue Wuxi approached Ji Chen, he sacrificed the "Death and Life Cauldron" at the same time.
When the cauldron came out, the light was very bright.
The Ghost King seemed to have sensed something, and actually abandoned Ghost Eye and rushed over here.
Ghost pupil took the opportunity to catch his breath for a moment, turned his head and looked at Xue Wuxi, and also saw the "Death and Life Cauldron", and understood what Xue Wuxi was going to do.
Xue Wuxi injected spiritual power into the cauldron, and the runes on the cauldron flashed, and the formation appeared, and he was about to start the "body-for-body" method.
Seeing this, the ghost king immediately used all his spiritual power to attack Xue Wuxi, trying to kill him before the formation was formed.
Seeing that Xue Wuxi was about to be hit, Li Yuan, who had been unconscious, didn't know when to wake up. He rushed towards the ghost king with his last bit of strength, and blew up his Yuan baby and spirit core.
The huge impact stopped the ghost king and saved Xue Wuxi.
But Li Yuan's whole body was shattered into powder, just like Nangong Suo just now.
This means that there is no way to recover and heal.
Witnessing Li Yuan's death with his own eyes, Xue Wuxi was stunned for a moment, distracted, and actually shouted at the top of his lungs: "Li Yuan!"
There was no response -
Xue Wuxi collapsed in an instant, and didn't care about the formation at all.
But the "Death and Life Cauldron" was still activated.
The formation is complete, and someone must enter the cauldron for sacrifice.
Jiang Shengyu and Fu Changgeng do not have enough spiritual power, and may not succeed.
Guitong knew that this was the last chance, and just gave Ji Chen a gentle and smiling look, and jumped into the cauldron decisively. Ji
Chen had no time to stop Guitong.
At the moment when Guitong jumped into the cauldron, his consciousness was pulled out of his body by an invisible force.
