I had a peach wood sword, and I'd scared the cat away so many times that I wasn't afraid of it anymore. But then I heard Su Xiaoniu say, "Wait... there seems to be something different about this cat spirit..."
I looked left and right, and there was nothing different. The face was still as ferocious, the eyes were still as green, and there was no tail. It was exactly the same as before. Was Su Xiaoniu making a fuss out of nothing?
But before I could react, the black cat pounced on me. I was surprised to find that its speed had become extremely fast, at least three times faster than before. It was night time, and it suddenly appeared in front of me like a black shadow.
I was so frightened I was completely stunned. Just as I was about to swing my peach wood sword, the black cat slammed me into the chest. I was sent flying three meters away, dropping the peach wood sword in my hand. The cat's claws tore two bloody wounds of varying depths on each shoulder, and the pain made me grit my teeth.
After the black cat pounced on me, it decisively extended its claws towards my chest, as if to give me a chill. I was panicking and didn't know what to do. At this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared on my chest, and the black cat was scared away by this white light.
I subconsciously touched my chest, and it turned out to be the round mirror that Su Xiaoniu asked me to hang on my heart. It was this mirror that saved my life!
"Phew! That was a close call." I covered the burning wound on my shoulder, stood up, and lit the candle in the northwest corner. Now, there was only one candle left in the northeast corner. As long as I lit this candle, I could reactivate the functions of the other five candles.
Although I still don’t know what the five candles are for, Su Xiaoniu must have her reasons for asking me to do this.
Su Xiaoniu reminded me, "You're lucky this time. Now don't count on this broken mirror. It can only be used once, and now it's just an ordinary mirror. As for the cat spirit, I'm afraid Huo Yan secretly gave it some ghost energy, which instantly increased its strength and speed several times. With your current naked eyes, you can't see the cat spirit's movements at all, and you'll be at a disadvantage."
"Then what should I do now?" I was extremely anxious. The peach wood sword was so far away from me, and I was unarmed. How could I be a match for this black cat?
Su Xiaoniu thought for a moment and said, "You now have two options. One is to rush to the northeast corner and light the candle. Then you can use the 'Small Yang Pass'. The Small Yang Pass can only be used in places with heavy Yin energy and requires a person of extreme Yang. Otherwise, it is very easy to backfire. You have a Yang male body, which is perfect for you. The second option is to rush over and pick up your peach wood sword to protect your life for the time being. It's up to you to decide."
I asked weakly, "What is Xiaoyangguan Road?"
Su Xiaoniu said earnestly, "The Xiaoyangguan Road is nothing. It's a Taoist technique for exorcising ghosts. It can create a path filled with yang energy within a certain space. It's called the Yangguan Road. Once a ghost appears on this Yangguan Road, it's like being exposed to the scorching sun. In a matter of minutes, it will be devoured by the yang energy and its soul will be shattered."
Damn, so powerful? I was surprised and delighted: "Then why didn't you use it when you came into this power plant just now? If you had used it just now, this wouldn't have happened."
"Do you think Xiaoyangguan Dao can be used casually?" Su Xiaoniu said angrily, "First, five candles and two incense sticks must burn simultaneously for a certain period of time to generate a certain amount of heat. In addition, there must be a strong Yin energy in the environment. When you came in just now, there was not such a strong Yin energy, okay? It only became strong when Huo Yan appeared. I asked you to prepare for this moment. But I didn't expect Huo Yan to have a cat spirit as an aid, and it extinguished all the candles that were lit beforehand. I also didn't expect this."
I nodded belatedly. I glanced at the candle in the northeast corner. It was at least fifty meters away, blocked by several old, abandoned machines. It would take at least fifteen seconds for me to run there and light the candle. If the black cat suddenly attacked, I'd have to use the Golden Light Talisman to block it, which would take even longer. The peach wood sword was about twenty meters away; running over to pick it up would be a snap.
After carefully weighing the pros and cons, I suddenly leaped up from the ground, exerting the speed of a 100-meter sprint, rushing towards the peach wood sword twenty meters ahead. The black cat on the railing saw me doing this, arched its back, and pounced on my back.
I calculated the time and the effort, but I couldn't predict the black cat's speed. It was too damn fast. I had only run ten meters when the black cat pounced on my back, just a few centimeters away!
Just when I thought I was going to be pounced on by the black cat again, a warm current suddenly rushed through my body, and my body suddenly seemed to fly up and become light. After taking two steps, I suddenly rolled twice on the ground. With a snap, my right hand just grabbed the end of the peach wood sword handle.
"Hurry up and stab straight behind you with the peach wood sword!" Su Xiaoniu's panting voice sounded in my ears. I instantly understood why my body became so light just now. It must be the magic power that Su Xiaoniu secretly gave me. Without thinking at all, I swung the peach wood sword, turned around, and stabbed fiercely straight behind me.
With a "puff", the peach wood sword pierced the black cat's right eyeball, blinding it directly. Even more terrifying was that no blood spurted out, only a trace of crimson blood flowing around the eyelid, which set off the black cat's ferocious face and made it look extremely terrifying.
I swear, this is the scariest thing I've ever seen. It's even scarier than seeing that female ghost Huo Yan! I almost ran away. My god, it was so terrifying that it gave me chills.
The black cat had its right eye blinded by me. It let out a "meow" roar and quickly jumped onto the railing.
I took this opportunity, turned around and ran to the northeast corner with the peach wood sword. As long as I lit this candle, it would be easier to deal with the black cat and Huo Yan, right? As I was thinking this, Su Xiaoniu suddenly shouted, "Oh no, that cat spirit is going to attack Zhao Xi and the others! You blinded its eyes, and it will have to dig out the eyes of a living person to repair it."
I was shocked when I heard it, and looked back suddenly. Sure enough, I saw that the black cat had jumped down from the railing and pounced on Zhao Xi and Ning Xue who were unconscious on the ground.
When I saw it, I suddenly yelled, "Fuck, let them go, come at me if you dare!" As I said this, people had already run over.
The black cat didn't seem to intend to pay any attention to me and continued to pounce on them. In a hurry, I swung the peach wood sword in my hand and smashed it hard at the black cat.
