Kill the Gu King 3
“The Gu-Slaying Needle is the only weapon that can subdue the Gu King. For so many years, I have been researching how to kill the demonic Gu within the body, but... this is something I can't possess, Xiangxiang... I know it's unfair to you to impose on you what I can't do..."
The Gu-Slaying Needle pierced the Gu King's right neck, and the frenzied evil power seemed to disappear briefly under its influence.
Ren Xiangxiang was violently thrown out by the evil force, and in the chaos, she was caught by Fuyi, who had just woken up.
Still not understanding the situation, Ye Mei saw the Gu King standing there dumbfounded. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, picked up her spear again, and unleashed a torrent of demonic power.
At the same time, Mo You unleashed his demonic power again, maximizing the Mo Five Techniques. The howling wind, stirred up by the Ice Nightmare, crashed heavily onto the seemingly unsuspecting Gu King.
The poison on the Gu-Slaying Needle began to spread, and a feeling that was almost forgotten resurfaced in my mind—the taste of being on the verge of death.
"Ahhh!"
Wang Rongku screamed in a state of confusion, and even the beating heart in his chest seemed to have a consciousness of its own, swelling into a large bulge in his chest, trying to break free.
Stimulated, the demonic gu seized Wang Rongku's last vestiges of consciousness. Just as the two demonic forces were about to strike, Wang Rongku spread his hands, and birds and beasts within a hundred miles suddenly died, vegetation withered, and a circle of white light instantly enveloped Wang Rongku's body.
boom!
The immense impact, as if space itself were collapsing, swept them away fiercely before they could even react.
"Oh no, the Gu-Slaying Needle!" Ren Xiangxiang felt a mouthful of blood rise to her throat, her body trembling like a kite with a broken string.
In her last glance, she saw the white light rapidly envelop the Gu King's body, gradually forming a giant cocoon.
The outline of the Gu King could still be faintly seen within the cocoon, but this outline was slightly distorted and deformed as the white light spread wildly.
Just then, another powerful demonic force descended from mid-air.
boom!
Ye Honglanzhi pierced the air with her sword, the white light twisted slightly, and then a ripple followed as another sword fell.
The surging demonic power exploded around the evil force, but it could not be broken.
As everyone took turns attacking, the cocoon changed again. A piercing scream rang out, and countless white tentacles suddenly burst forth from around the cocoon, frantically attacking everyone.
Mo You severed the suddenly appearing tentacle with his sword, but his tiger's mouth was split open and blood flowed freely. This thing was harder than he had imagined. Just then, his vision blurred and Ren Xiangxiang suddenly rushed in while he was severing the tentacle.
"Xiangxiang, come back!" Mo You blurted out, and then Ren Xiangxiang's anxious voice came through the mournful wind, "The Gu-Slaying Needle is still inside!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than the severed tentacles grew back and began to lash out at Ren Xiangxiang, who was coming straight at her.
Ren Xiangxiang's vision blurred, her body shrank, and she nimbly slipped through the gap in the middle, unleashing her demonic claws.
Just as the demon claw flew out, the tentacles suddenly contracted, catching Ren Xiangxiang off guard. She felt as if something was falling on her head.
boom!
Ye Mei and Ye Honglanzhi, one on the left and one on the right, attacked the wildly growing tentacles with their swords and spears at the same time. Ren Xiangxiang felt a chill on her head and a tightness on her shoulders. She was thrown out again and crashed into Mo You.
A strong smell of blood hit her face, and she vaguely heard Mo You groan, but before she could ask any questions, the tentacles in front of her exploded again. Mo You grabbed her and retreated several steps before escaping the opponent's attack range.
"Is the Gu-Slaying Needle ineffective?" Mo You asked, panting heavily.
Ren Xiangxiang shook her head, dodging the tentacles' attacks as she replied, "The Gu-Slaying Needle worked, but the attack just now didn't hit a vital spot."
"Vital points?" Mo You's mind was in complete disarray.
“It’s the true form of the demonic gu. This gu king is just a puppet of the demonic gu. What we really need to kill is the demonic gu inside him.” Ren Xiangxiang stared at the gu king wrapped in a cocoon, gritting her teeth. “I only saw it clearly when I got close to it. It’s the location of his heart.”
"Then we need to break its shell to get back the Gu-Slaying Needle?" Mo You then slashed off another tentacle that was rushing towards him with his sword.
Ren Xiangxiang was almost carried away by the tentacles. Her body swayed, and anger welled up in her heart. "You cover me, I'll go get it back."
"Now is not the time to play the hero. Let's break its tentacles first, and whoever has the chance can take it!" Mo You interrupted Ren Xiangxiang. "In its current state, it probably has no way out."
As soon as he finished speaking, the white light on the Gu King surged, and its piercing scream was like the dying roar of a demonic Gu. Finally, it transformed into thousands of tentacles, attacking any creature that came near it like a madman.
Hungry, so hungry—
Kill all the demons and eat them!
Eat them—
The piercing scream stabbed at his eardrums. He looked at the moon shining through the window, which was blood red.
When did the moon turn red?
No, it's his eyes that have turned red.
That shrill cry was his own.
When did he start using such an offensive language?
It hurts, it hurts so much!
who?
Come and kill me!
Please, please, kill me!
I can't take it anymore!
"No, no, no... Brother Rong, Brother Rong... please don't die, please don't die..."
Warm little hands gently touched his face from his bloodied and mangled body, tears mingling with blood and flesh—a warmth that didn't belong to him.
"Little, little one..." He heard his own throat making an incoherent sound, and he could barely hear what he was saying.
The girl beside him, her eyes closed, cried until her face was covered in blood and tears, and reached out to hug him.
"Don't die, Rong-ge... Don't leave me. Either, let me die with you, okay? That way, in another world, neither of us will be alone... I'll die with you..."
The girl clung tightly to his almost unrecognizable head, and his screams vanished instantly. He wanted to speak, to tell her his pain and reluctance, to tell her to live on and live in his place, and to tell her that it was fortunate she was blind, otherwise his appearance would have terrified her.
I want to tell her...
There are so many things I want to tell her.
think……
The cocoon grew thicker and thicker, and the dense evil energy made it hard for everyone to breathe. Just as the menacing tentacles lunged out in all directions, everyone immediately scattered.
Ye Honglanzhi gathered her demonic power and slashed away the surging tentacles from the west with her sword. Immediately afterward, Fuyi leaped into the air, her sword flashing a white light, and with a loud bang, the wind and snow swept away another large group of tentacles.
The bluebird burst forth, its bluish-white light crashing down with tremendous force, exploding on the cocoon. At the same time, two figures rushed into the cocoon one after the other.
Mo You swung his sword at the cocoon's head, instantly causing its tiger's mouth to split open and blood to flow freely. The immense demonic power was unstoppable, and with a loud boom, it was heard.
"Now!"
A crack suddenly appeared on the head of the crazed cocoon, and Ren Xiangxiang seized the opportunity to quickly throw out her demonic claw.
"Aaaaaaahh ...
The demon's piercing scream pierced the heavens, and its mournful cry made everyone instinctively cover their ears.
"Xiangxiang!"
The tentacles on the cocoon became even more frenzied. Mo You grabbed at empty air and was struck on the back by one of the tentacles.
The cocoon contracted rapidly, and Ren Xiangxiang was dragged towards it by the demon's claws.
At the critical moment, a cold light suddenly shot out from behind. With a bang, the cocoon trembled violently, and Ren Xiangxiang abruptly withdrew her demonic claws and retreated hastily.
That's... a demon-slaying arrow?!
Not far away, the Shadow Shooter arrived breathlessly. His pupils trembled as he looked at the demonized Ren Xiangxiang not far away, and even the hand holding the Demon-Slaying Bow was shaking slightly.
The child who slowly lost his breath in her arms.
The lover who closed his eyes forever in front of her.
She can't afford to lose any more.
If God really wants to take someone's life.
She wanted to take her place.
"Mother...?"
Ren Xiangxiang opened her mouth in shock, but before she could react, her vision blurred and five or six tentacles shot out from under the cocoon, unexpectedly pulling Ren Xiangxiang into the cocoon.
"Xiangxiang!!"
With a scream, Sheliuying fired three demon-slaying arrows in quick succession.
Bang bang bang
The demonic insect's tentacles exploded in a row.
The ravenous demonic gu grew larger, its tentacles contracting frantically, tightly binding Ren Xiangxiang as she tried to break free. Ren Xiangxiang was almost suffocating from the constriction. In her dazed state, she forcefully pulled out the Gu-slaying needle from the demonic claw and desperately stabbed it down.
"Xiangxiang!"
Shooting Shadow's pupils suddenly contracted, and she rushed forward in one stride, only to be met by a gust of demonic wind that sent her flying.
Bang!
A large cloud of white mist exploded near the cocoon, emitting a pungent, fishy stench that quickly spread in all directions.
The black figure moved through the white mist at lightning speed, sword light flashing and tentacles flailing wildly. His back and right arm were severely injured, and even the hand holding the sword began to tremble slightly.
"Xiangxiang...where are you? Xiangxiang!"
Mo You's aura was chaotic. The first four of the five Mo techniques were controllable, but the fifth technique was easy to lose control if he was immersed in it for too long. At this moment, he had been immersed in the five Mo techniques for too long. Just now, he clearly saw that Xiang Xiang had escaped the attack range of the cocoon, and he saw that the demonic Gu tentacles had been destroyed by the Demon-Slaying Arrow.
The rapidly shrinking cocoon expanded and burst open again, with three loud bangs, and a foul-smelling white mist surged towards everyone.
"Get back!"
"What exactly is this thing?"
Sheliuying refused to leave and was forcibly taken away by Fuyi. Yemei also helped Yehonglanzhi to decisively retreat from the white mist area.
Mo You, his eyes bloodshot within the white mist, recklessly lunged towards the center of the menacing cocoon. The demonic insect tentacles that rose from the ground rushed toward him, but they were met with a flash of cold light, moving faster than the blink of an eye.
The Ice Nightmare sword emitted a faint glow, and the powerful demonic energy contained within it instantly surged into the wielder's limbs and bones. Mo You let out a muffled groan, almost being knocked unconscious by the monstrous wave of demonic energy.
The ice demon in his hand grew heavier and heavier, making his internal organs feel like they were about to explode.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his confused state of mind made him feel as if he had instantly returned to Fox Mountain.
He returned to the day he was most desperate.
This time, he won't let himself have any regrets.
Even if it costs him his life, he will never regret it!
The icy light of the Nightmare surged, breaking through the white mist and blooming into a vast expanse of icy blue above Yanshi Ridge.
The demonic insect has gone mad.
The demon, which had never experienced such powerful demonic energy before, let out a piercing scream.
The rampant evil power contracted rapidly and uncontrollably, finally being crushed into fragments by that terrifying icy blue light.
The cocoon encasing the demonic Gu instantly burst open, and Ren Xiangxiang regained consciousness. She gripped the Gu-Slaying Needle tightly with both hands and thrust it fiercely into the heart of the Gu King.
At the same time, Wang Rongku, who was also awakened, regained his self-awareness.
bite!
The Gu-Slaying Needle landed heavily on the seemingly thin cocoon surrounding the Gu.
Wang Rongku opened his eyes and grabbed Ren Xiangxiang by the throat.
"You think you can kill me?"
