Chapter 34 Hello, my eight little friends~
The knife is fast, but Ji Lingche is even faster!
Before the blade cut her neck, Ji Lingche's hand had already plunged into the man's chest. Taking advantage of the man's moment of shock, he tilted his head to avoid the blade, and pried the man's ribs apart with his hands, pulling them out.
Unfortunately, it didn't move.
The man's blade came again, Ji Lingche quickly withdrew his hand, stepped back quickly, and barely avoided it.
She looked at the man intently and saw that he was wearing a black robe with a big hole in his chest. Blood-red instantly spread in the water, but he didn't care at all. The wound healed quickly and was back to normal in a short time!
Ji Lingche curled his lips: "You have some skills."
Qu Wu Ji opened his eyes, pulled Ji Lingche's wrist, and stood in front of her. He stared at the inhuman thing with a gloomy expression and murderous intent.
Ji Lingche pulled his sleeve and said, "Be careful, don't kill him."
When Qu Wuji stared at that thing, it suddenly shuddered all over. It knew that it would get into trouble, but it was still brave. The sword light flashed violently and split the water!
Qu Wu Ji stretched out his hand and pointed, and the man paused, but somehow, he was only frozen for three breaths, and then the knife chopped down!
The knife almost cut through the water and went straight towards Qu Wu Ji.
Ji Lingche: "Amazing!"
Qu Wu Ji raised his hand to block, the knife was suspended three inches above his palm. The knifeman's mouth was pursed into a line, his whole body tensed, and suddenly, the knife went down another half an inch!
Qu Wu Ji frowned, and slapped the man's chest with his other hand. Although he restrained his strength, the water was buzzing and shaking, and the spiritual pressure suddenly spread out with the help of the water, hitting out layer by layer.
Ji Lingche felt a pain in his heart and was affected by it, and couldn't help but step back.
Then I saw the man being slapped, blood oozing from all his orifices, soaking into the water, a bright red patch. He put his hand to his chest, gasping for breath, but he was not fatally injured.
This man was indeed very capable. After taking a few breaths, he suddenly raised his knife and was about to chop again. Ji Lingche was just about to say that this man was really a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, but before the knife blade arrived, everything went dark in front of his eyes!
What?!
The light spell that Qu Wuji had just cast was actually broken. Just as she was about to step back, her wrist was tightly grasped. In the darkness, Qu Wuji whispered, "He ran away. Let's chase him."
Ji Lingche smiled and said, "How come you can't even catch a little thief?"
Qu Wuji said: "I'm using the water to gain leverage, I'm afraid I'll hurt you."
This time it was Ji Lingche's turn to be defeated.
Qu Wu Ji put his arm around her shoulders, and with his other hand he grabbed Mu Ye's collar, and quickly moved forward along the thickest chain.
Ji Lingche could smell the smell of blood in her sea of consciousness and knew that Qu Wuji was carrying her and was falling closely behind that thing. After following for a while, the water became colder and colder, with ice chips floating in it. It also became thicker and thicker, making it more difficult to swim, like being stirred in porridge.
The corpses floating in the water also changed strangely, emitting a deep red light, illuminating the surroundings with a dark red hue, and the people seemed to be soaked in blood.
Ji Lingche's hair stood on end, and he could already vaguely feel the pressure from the thing in front of him.
"It's really evil." She thought to herself.
Qu Wu Ji was following the man not far away, but suddenly, the water began to surge, as if something was suddenly rushing towards him in the water!
I saw an iron chain passing by several people, with a person at the end. Regardless of whether he was dead or alive, he was dragged towards the place where the evil pressure was bursting out.
Ji Lingche: No, what just happened?!
Immediately afterwards, there was a movement behind him. One person was left far behind. He was already at the end of his strength. His water-avoidance technique was about to lose its effect, but he gritted his teeth and tried his best to follow -
Ji Lingche rubbed his eyes in disbelief and blurted out: "Qing?!"
"What are you doing?"
Liu Yeqing felt like his chest was about to explode. It was already difficult to swim here, and his heart was about to jump out from chasing the iron chain. Suddenly he heard a human voice and almost thought it was an illusion.
Ji Lingche: "...You're not dead?"
Qing's heart was burning with anger. Without time to say anything, he pointed directly at the iron chain and said, "Linghu Jin!!"
Ji Lingche was startled, feeling that this matter was extremely bizarre. Qu Wuji suddenly said to Qing: "Come here."
Qing couldn't see his appearance in the water and didn't know who he was. She had no time to think about it and just swam over randomly.
Qu Wuji instantly formed a formation, and in an instant the entire surface of the water was illuminated. White light burst out, tightly enveloping the few people. The next moment, the world was spinning.
Shrink the distance by a thousand miles!
Qing was horrified. In this place with such a strong evil spirit, it was difficult to perform any magic, let alone underwater. And he was teleporting with so many people. This person...
When I opened my eyes again, several people had appeared on the shore, their clothes not wet at all.
Ji Lingche was dazzled by the red light and his heart was pounding. He opened his eyes again and saw a large cross-shaped frame reaching into the sky. Bright red liquid was oozing from the frame. At first glance, the frame was hidden in the darkness, like a huge evil god with its arms open, looking down at its ant-like believers.
Countless iron chains were densely tied to this rack, spreading out and extending into the water.
Some of the chains were tugged violently, but the big frame was rooted at the bottom, and no matter how strong the wind blew, it remained motionless.
It turns out that this one rack alone can hold back countless prisoners!
At the top of the shelf, there grew an extremely thick and heavy chain, which was twisted around the shelf layer by layer like a giant python, circling down with a creepy and eerie feeling. However, the chain did not sink into the water, but stretched to the back, hidden in the endless darkness, shaking from time to time, making a teeth-grinding friction sound.
Qu Wuji pointed at the unconscious Mu Ye and said to Qing, "You carry him on your back."
His tone was light and cold, and Bingde Qing shivered all over. She couldn't muster the courage to disobey. It seemed that when she was around this man, she would unconsciously obey his orders.
Qu Wu Ji held Ji Lingche's wrist, but was stunned for a moment. She saw that her hand was covered in blood. The wound was very deep and the bones were exposed on the back of her hand.
Ji Lingche was afraid that he would go crazy again, so she quickly pulled her hand back. Qu Wuji still held her hand tightly, and without turning around, she said to Qing behind her, "Follow me."
He held her hand, pulled her forward, and poured spiritual power into her. She only felt a coolness on her hand.
Qing had just carried Mu Ye on his back when he saw this scene. He was almost horrified. He finally recognized who that person was and stammered, "Qu... Qu Shouzun, Lord Shouzun?"
What was even more shocking than the appearance of the Immortal Alliance's leader in Fengdu City was that the leader and the evil cultivator leader were openly holding hands.
Ji Lingche was speechless and said to Qu Wuji: "...Okay, now everyone knows that you are mentally ill."
Qu Wuji sneered: "Even if I am sick, it is all thanks to you."
Ji Lingche: "Okay, I am guilty. I am the worst villain. It is all my fault that you have lost your Dao heart. Otherwise, you would have ascended to heaven long ago. OK?"
Qu Wu Ji didn't say anything. Ji Lingche just felt a pain in his hand and couldn't help but let out a "hiss".
Seeing that the remaining spirits of Linghu Jin and Liu Yeyue had disappeared, Qing was extremely anxious: "Master..."
Ji Lingche knew what he was going to say. She could feel Linghu Jin's soul still alive in her sea of consciousness, so she said, "She's fine—"
She was very perceptive and immediately asked, "Why do you seem a little strange?"
Qing was stunned. He knew she was asking about Liu Yeyue, but he didn't know how to start.
A few people went around to the back of the big shelf and saw an endless long road.
There were crimson corpse lights floating in the air, the ground was sticky and red, and the smell of blood hit my nose.
Ji Lingche frowned: "This is human blood, there is no mistake."
Qing felt his heart pounding, a near-death fear rising from the depths of his heart. His calves cramped, and he heard Qu Wuji suddenly say, "Human sacrifice."
Ji Lingche turned to look at Liu Yeqing, and seeing that he looked extremely bad, he said, "Haven't you found Mu Ye? You can go back and report now. Go ahead."
Qing shook his head decisively: "No! I..."
He suddenly stopped talking -
Ji Lingche turned around, raised an eyebrow and said, "I see, did you see anyone?"
Qing was suddenly speechless, and the fear of Ji Lingche rose in her heart again. She just stared at him, and he couldn't tell a lie. He didn't know what to say, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Before he could finish his explanation, Qu Wuji suddenly said, "It's dangerous to be alone. Come with us."
Qing nodded in agreement as if he had been pardoned.
Ji Lingche's eyes suddenly moved, and something was coming from the darkness ahead!
Before he could speak, Qu Wuji had already cast a spell, instantly illuminating the corridor, and something fell to the ground in the white light.
Ji Lingche saw the man clearly and smiled coldly: "You guy, you really have a lot of blood——"
The person lying on the ground was the one who had just attacked them in the water. He was now pinned to the ground by Qu Wu Ji and kept struggling, but it was all in vain.
Qu Wuji spoke calmly but with great pressure: "Who are you?"
It turned out that the man could speak, but when he opened his mouth, his voice was shrill, as if he had stepped on a cat's tail. He looked neither young nor old, neither male nor female, neither human nor ghost.
The man shouted, "Bah!"
"We're still asking you! Damn it, what are you doing here?!"
Ji Lingche was stunned.
When she was a national teacher in her early years, she was close to the royal family and walked around the palace all year round, so when she saw this person, she felt a strange sense of familiarity -
Could this person be... a eunuch?!
She had heard of a sect in her early years, and the key to its practice was that one must castrate oneself before practicing. However, that sect was hard to find, and its aura was ethereal, very different from the man in front of her. So, was this man... a real eunuch?
She had never heard of a eunuch who practiced Taoism. After all, the mortal world is the mortal world, and the immortal world is the immortal world. Since he had purified himself, it meant that he had devoted himself to the mundane world. How could he practice Taoism?
Qu Wuji remained calm and said, "We have no intention of disturbing you. We simply wandered into this place by mistake. We have no ill intentions."
She twisted her orchid finger and shouted at him: "You are bullshit!"
Ji Lingche: "Tsk, the old man has a really dirty mouth."
"If we wanted to kill you, you would have died a long time ago, okay?"
Ji Lingche said as he approached the guy, finally squatting in front of him and looking him straight in the eye: "Is the one locked inside your house your master?"
The eunuch was quite angry, panting heavily like a bloated clam, almost making himself explode with anger.
Ji Lingche originally wanted to stroke his fur to prevent his inner energy from exploding on him, but seeing that he was sticky, he stood up in disgust and stayed away from him.
Qu Wuji came over and said, "Come in and take a look."
The eunuch shouted, "How dare you! You've disturbed the princess's quiet meditation. How many of you deserve to have your heads chopped off?"
Ji Lingche touched his neck, as if counting his heads, and said, "Wow, that's scary!"
Qu Wuji suddenly spoke, his voice cold and icy, carrying a chill that penetrated his bones: "In the sixteenth year of Chunxi, Fengdu was captured. The Qi army slaughtered the entire city, leaving no one alive, royal family or civilians. Da Yan died that night."
"Four hundred years have passed, and you are still dreaming of restoring your country?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cool breeze blew over from the corridor, as if carrying resentment from thousands of years ago. Only someone could be heard sighing softly.
The eunuch laughed and said, "You are in trouble now. Our Imperial Master is angry."
Ji Lingche raised his eyebrows and asked, "National Master?"
Can you meet colleagues here?
She narrowed her eyes and stared at the empty corridor ahead, her lips curled up: "Real people don't show their faces, they're really putting on quite a show."
The Imperial Master didn't seem annoyed, and his voice drifted out: "Little friend, is that how you speak to your senior?"
Ji Lingche looked down and saw the sticky blood on the ground began to wriggle, clumps of blood crawling up the shoes and onto the legs. Ji Lingche kicked the thing away, then stepped on it firmly and crushed it: "What kind of shit dares to call me my senior?"
Although to some extent, he is indeed a senior.
Suddenly, Qing couldn't help but let out a muffled cry. He was carrying Mu Ye on his back, and his movements were already inconvenient. The scarlet blood on the ground quickly flowed down his legs and rolled straight to his neck. Suddenly, it tightened, and he felt dizzy for an instant, almost being strangled to death.
But suddenly, Qu Wu Ji waved his sleeves, and the air rushed into his nostrils again!
The thick blood clot that was wrapped around Qing's neck like a tentacle suddenly melted and turned into a large pool of liquid, flowing down his front and seeping into his clothes. His whole body seemed to be soaked in blood.
The wind blew violently, blowing up the clothes of several people. Qu Wuji clasped his hands together and quickly made a hand gesture: "Tianlang, break the formation."
I saw a flash of blue-black light, and a black shadow turned into a giant wolf, leaping forward with a gust of wind, and crashing into the end of the corridor with a "bang". The spiritual pressure spread out, colliding with the evil pressure, and then like an explosion, the pressure dissipated!
Ji Lingche took a few steps back and bumped into someone. The person hugged her and used his sleeves to protect her.
There was a buzzing in her ears, and the world around her began to twist and be pulled continuously, and finally tore apart piece by piece, like a mirror shattering!
Ji Lingche was held in Qu Wuji's arms. He felt the air around him suddenly condense and an evil pressure was pressing on him, as if he had suddenly fallen from a coffin into a fire pit, burning his internal organs.
She opened her eyes, only to see bright red everywhere. The scene suddenly changed, and she saw a large palace.
It turned out that a few people had fallen into an illusion formation just now, and now that the formation was broken, they could see the true appearance.
Qing and Muye rolled to the side, and Qing vomited, feeling suffocated and dying.
Ji Lingche narrowed his eyes and looked forward.
It looked like the hall where the emperor held court. It was very spacious. Not far away there was a high platform, and under layers of iron chains, a person was tied.
The iron chains pierced through his scapula and limbs viciously, and were full of blood vessels all over his body. It was almost as if a person had grown out of the chains.
The man, however, lay back on a big chair, ignoring the chains, and even had an air of pampered luxury.
The chains were piled up layer upon layer and nailed to his body, almost burying him.
But when that person leaned over there, he looked like a seductive evil god, and no one could take their eyes off him.
His hair was loose, black as a waterfall, and he looked very young and handsome. There was a dark circle under his eyes, and his dark lips were a little bloody, with a wicked smile on their faces.
He raised his hand and pushed aside his messy black hair, revealing a pair of eyes with distinct black and white. The handcuffs he was wearing made a rattling sound, but they looked like bracelets on his wrists, which was very beautiful.
The man opened his black lips and said, "Hello, children."
Ji Lingche looked away without changing his expression, and saw a person lying at his feet with his clothes slightly open. It was Linghu Jin.
