Chapter 255 Let's fight and see who dies first
Imperial mausoleum, Shinto.
The golden light shield that rose from the ground also caught the eyes of Xiao Yu and the black-robed high priest.
"Hmm," the high priest looked towards the capital with some surprise. "The Ten Thousand Lights Demon Suppression Formation? I didn't expect that Chu Xuanyi could actually come up with this formation."
"It's interesting, but it's just barely surviving. I'll wait for my undead army to razze this place before I tear down that turtle shell. It'll just take a little longer."
The moment Xiao Yu saw the golden light, his heart was shocked.
"Brother Xiongxiong, it's an adult." Jiu also recognized him, with a look of surprise on his little face, "It's an adult who is helping us."
"Um."
Xiao Yu nodded heavily, and the last trace of worry in his heart completely disappeared.
He glanced at the endless number of ghost soldiers in front of him, then looked up at the crack in the sky.
"Ajiu, do you dare to accompany me to take a trip to heaven?"
Ajiu was stunned for a moment, then understood what Xiao Yu meant.
"I dare." She nodded vigorously. "Wherever Xiong Xiong goes, Jiu will go."
"Hahahaha, go to heaven." Not far away, the black-robed high priest let out a shrill laugh. "Xiao Yu, are you scared silly? Do you think I will give you this chance?"
He stretched out his hand and pointed, and the endless torrent of ghost soldiers charged forward a little faster.
"Drown them."
"Ajiu, stand here and don't move." Xiao Yu whispered.
Before he finished speaking, he turned into a stream of golden light and shot straight towards the black-robed high priest standing at the back.
"Your opponent is me."
The voice arrives before the person arrives.
"Oh." The high priest's laughter stopped abruptly. The pair of red eyes under the hood watched the approaching golden light with interest. "Who gave you the courage to fight me in a duel, Xiao Yu?"
"It's them."
"It's this land, it's the lights of this city, it's the people of the Great Zhou who don't want to become like you, half-human, half-ghost creatures."
"That's a nice thing to say," the high priest curled his lips in disdain, "you're just a bunch of ants. Since you're so eager to die, I'll grant your wish."
He slowly raised his hands, and his wide sleeves revealed a pair of dry hands like chicken claws.
Thick black evil energy gathered in his palm, forming a constantly rotating vortex.
"Come, let me see how powerful you are, now that you have acquired some of the remaining souls of our ancestors."
"As you wish."
"boom."
The next moment, the two figures collided fiercely.
The dissipated energy shock wave razed everything within a radius of hundreds of feet to the ground, and the ghost soldiers that rushed up were torn to pieces before they even had time to get close.
In the distance, Ajiu clenched his hands nervously, staring at the battlefield without blinking, his purple pupils had been stimulated to the extreme.
"Brother Xiong Xiong, be careful of his left hand."
"Brother Xiong Xiong, he's going to retreat into the shadows."
On the battlefield, Xiao Yu became more and more courageous.
The blessing of the Dragon Vein's ancestral energy not only increased his strength dramatically, but also allowed his recovery ability to reach a terrifying level. Even if he was occasionally struck by evil magic, the wound would quickly heal under the flow of golden light.
On the other hand, the high priest gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Damn it." He cursed in his heart.
Xiao Yu's dragon energy is extremely strong and masculine, and he is naturally the nemesis of all evil and filthy things.
As one side gained strength while the other lost strength, the evil shield he had condensed became increasingly weaker.
"We can't put it off any longer."
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the high priest's eyes. He fought fiercely with Xiao Yu, and used the force to retreat and create a distance of dozens of feet between him and Xiao Yu.
"Xiao Yu, you have enough to be proud of yourself for being able to force me to this point." He laughed hoarsely, "Next, I will let you witness the true power of the Netherworld."
He opened his mouth and suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.
The blood did not fall in the air, but turned into a huge blood-colored magic circle.
"Blood Demon...Swallow the Sky."
He suddenly pressed his hands into the magic circle.
"roar."
A terrifying roar came from the magic circle, and a giant hand as big as a hill stretched out from the magic circle and grabbed Xiao Yu on the head.
"You're just in time."
Xiao Yu did not retreat, but instead poured all the dragon vein energy in his body into the sword without reservation.
"Buzz..."
The long sword let out a loud dragon roar, and the sword body shone with dazzling golden light.
"break."
Xiao Yu's figure soared into the sky.
"What?" For the first time, horror appeared in the high priest's red eyes.
He didn't expect that Xiao Yu would dare to use such a life-threatening method to force his way through his killing move.
However, by the time he reacted, it was too late.
The golden light passed through the blood demon's hand and appeared in front of him.
“Puff.”
There was a slight sound of a sharp blade entering flesh.
The high priest slowly lowered his head and looked at the long sword burning with golden flames on his chest, his eyes full of disbelief.
“I…actually…”
He lost.
A plan that had been planned for decades and was about to succeed was ruined by a young man in his twenties.
"It's over." Xiao Yu moved his wrist, ready to crush the opponent's body completely.
The high priest who was supposed to be dying suddenly raised his head and gave him an extremely strange smile.
“Hehe…hehehe…”
"You win...but you also lose."
Xiao Yu's heart was filled with alarm. Without thinking, he immediately drew his sword and retreated.
But it's too late.
The high priest's body shrank rapidly, and all the blood and essence in his body madly gathered towards the wound on his chest at this moment.
"Xiao Yu, enjoy it."
"This is my last gift to you."
With a "bang", the shriveled body exploded completely and instantly condensed into a blood-colored rune that shot straight towards Xiao Yu's chest.
"not good."
Xiao Yu raised his sword to block, but the blood light passed through the sword and imprinted on his heart without any hindrance.
“Hahahahahahaha…”
"I use my soul as a curse, and your life is linked to this gate."
"When the door closes, that will be the moment you die."
The laughter gradually faded away.
The high priest was destroyed both physically and spiritually.
"puff."
Xiao Yu could no longer suppress the strangeness in his body, and a mouthful of golden blood spurted out.
He knelt on one knee, using his sword to support his body so as not to fall.
"Brother Xiong Xiong."
Ajiu screamed and ran towards him quickly.
Xiao Yu looked up at the Netherworld Gate that was still continuously pouring out ghost soldiers, and a very bitter smile appeared on his face.
This is nothing.
After finally defeating the enemy, I found myself in an...unsolvable dead end.
If you want to save the world, you have to close that door.
But once that door is closed, I will die immediately.
