Hua Shi has always trusted Liu Qishuang, so he should have felt relieved when he heard these words and turned around and went back immediately, but for some reason his heart tightened, and he just sat on the Lingsha Sword in a daze without making any immediate move.
He opened his eyes and looked at the scene below, and suddenly asked, "Does this method require you to pay a price?"
Fang Wei originally wanted to coax Hua Shi to go back, but she didn't expect that Hua Shi, who usually looked heartless and carefree, would ask such a question at this time.
Will there be a price to pay?
Of course they will.
This group of black snakes are now so powerful because they have received help from the monster in the Abyss. What he needs to do is to sever the relationship between the black snakes and the monster, or to cut off the power coming from the Abyss.
It is not easy to cut these black lines. This is completely different from dealing with the black snake that appeared in Yuan Lake. Only the Lingsha Sword that can cut off the spiritual connection can do this. Therefore, Ji Yuan can't do it, Xuan Shuzhi can't do it, and no one else can do it. Hua Shi, who is recognized as the master by the Lingsha Sword, is far from strong enough now, so Hua Shi can't do it either. This matter can only be done by him.
To accomplish these things, the spiritual power that he has in Hua Shi's body should be completely exhausted, his consciousness will return to his body, and he will no longer be able to know anything happening in the outside world, and will no longer have any contact with the outside world, unless Hua Shi can enter the abyss of disaster and successfully rescue him in the future.
This is the only solution he can think of now, so Fang Wei doesn't think he needs to hesitate. Moreover, he has made enough preparations during this period of time. Even if he can no longer know the situation in the outside world, he will not worry too much. He has reason to believe in others, including Hua Shi.
He said to Hua Shi: "If we leave like this, maybe no one will be able to stop the group of black snakes next time, and there will even be a bigger disaster after this. Do you think this is okay?"
Hua Shi gritted his teeth: "I..."
Fang Wei could see that Hua Shi had hesitated. He was about to continue to persuade her, but Hua Shi suddenly pressed on Yun Xiuxiu's pen, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I know the current situation is not right, but if I have to sacrifice you, then I can't agree to it. I can't make this decision."
Hua Shi's eyes were slightly red, and he seemed to be holding back tears.
Fang Wei never thought that Hua Shi would cry. He guessed that Hua Shi must have seen something, but he didn't expect him to have such a big reaction.
He suddenly found it hard to imagine, was his existence really so important to Hua Shi? What kind of mood was he in when he was talking to him?
Fang Wei realized that he might have been a little reluctant to persuade Hua Shi to make this decision, so he said, "I understand."
Hua Shi was still worried about what Fang Wei had just said. Before he could figure out the contradiction, he heard Fang Wei's words. He looked up suddenly, and at this moment he even forgot that he could talk to the other party in his mind. The Lingsha Sword carried him to the direction of Xuanling Pavilion. He sat on the sword helplessly, muttering, "What? What did you say clearly? Wait, what are you going to do?"
Fang Wei said softly, "I understand that this decision should not be left to you, because you will not give up either."
Whether it was the innocent people of Xuanqing Continent or "Liu Qishuang", Hua Shi had no way of abandoning them, so he couldn't make a choice at all.
"So this choice should have been made by me." Fang Wei sighed and then said, "Sorry."
Hua Shi had a bad premonition in his heart the moment he heard Fang Wei speak, and this premonition was getting stronger and stronger. He even wanted to ask Fang Wei not to continue talking. However, when he opened his mouth, he found that he could no longer make a sound. Then he panicked and found that not only could he not make a sound, but even his body could no longer move. He sat stiffly on the Lingsha sword, watching as the Lingsha sword, which was originally flying towards Xuanling Pavilion, suddenly stopped, and then, as if it had received some order, it turned its head in the air with Hua Shi in it, and then went back to the forest with the dark pit.
At this time, Hua Shi had completely understood what was going on in his mind. He had even guessed what Liu Qishuang wanted to do, because now he remembered what was going on with his current condition. He had experienced this kind of out-of-control body once before. That happened when he entered the spiritual realm and encountered danger. At that time, he still regarded Liu Qishuang as a system. Later, when they were in danger, they encountered a berserk and out-of-control spiritual creature. Hua Shi asked the system for help at the critical moment, and the system tricked him into turning on the so-called self-rescue system.
He remembered nothing after that. He only felt that his body seemed to have lost control and his consciousness quickly disappeared. When he woke up, they were out of danger and he himself was in the Shining Forest.
Now that he thought about it, there was no such thing as a "self-rescue system". The reason why he lost consciousness was simply because someone controlled his body during that time and saved everyone from the group of crazy spirits. As for why he did not stay with the others later, but appeared alone in the Trailing Light Forest, it was actually because Liu Qishuang wanted him to go there.
Because he had already made arrangements for his "chance encounter" with the elf senior.
Hua Shi had already had many guesses about Liu Qishuang pretending to be a system to get close to him, but no matter what guess he made, he knew that Liu Qishuang was helping him. He had saved him many times in difficult moments, helped him practice martial arts every day, found the best tenth-level spiritual objects for him, helped him find his master and many seniors, and even gave him his own sword. If he couldn't even believe this, then there was probably nothing in the world worth his belief.
But at this moment, Hua Shi felt somewhat desperate. If he had been more cautious towards Liu Qishuang, it would have been better. If he had not been controlled by Liu Qishuang, they would not have gone back...
Hua Shi felt that his consciousness was gradually slipping away. He saw "himself" making sword gestures and controlling the Lingsha Sword to fly back to the previous battlefield at a faster speed. He looked drowsily at the sky in the distance, feeling as if rain was about to fall, and then the scene in front of him became completely dark.
ยท
At this moment, it was outside the Tianqing City, in the woods.
The originally green forest was now shrouded in deep black fog. This black fog was not some strange poisonous fog wafting out from the spiritual realm, but the black smoke that floated out of the bodies of the black snakes when they disappeared after being destroyed.
The bodies of black snakes could be seen almost everywhere in the forest, and the black smoke from the bodies was everywhere. However, even so, they still couldn't kill all the black snakes. No matter how many black snakes they killed, there seemed to be more black snakes pouring out of the dark pit and rushing out. And as time went by, the power of these black snakes gradually became stronger.
Almost everyone present was the top expert in the entire spiritual world, but even so, some people started getting injured and bleeding in the battle, and gradually showed signs of decline.
There were so many enemies that it was almost beyond their control.
Xuan Shuzhi's face looked grim. When he turned around and saw Yi Zhan being forced into a corner by three black snakes, he quickly swung his sword to kill two of them. When he saw that the other one was also strangled by Yi Zhan, he relaxed a little, took a half step back and started to deal with the other black snakes.
At this time, Yi Zhan also rushed towards him. The two of them leaned on each other's backs and dealt with the black snake in front of them.
"How many of these guys are there?" Yi Zhan finally had a chance to catch his breath at this moment. He said with a heavy face, "Now that this place has become like this, what will the Spirit Realm look like now?"
In fact, it is not difficult to imagine, but sometimes it is hard to imagine. Xuan Shuzhi closed his eyes tiredly, but soon he had to open his eyes again to continue to deal with the black snake in front of him. He said calmly: "The Spirit Realm is probably now controlled by the black snake. There were already unusual movements during the Spiritual Transformation Conference a year ago, but the reason was not found at that time. Now that such a long time has passed, it is easy to imagine what the situation is."
Yi Zhan said with an annoyed "tsk" and frowned, "These black snakes have become stronger again."
Xuan Shuzhi nodded, his expression was unusually grim: "Just as Wen Zhong and Bai Heng described before, this group of black snakes will gradually become stronger after arriving at Xuanqing Continent. The longer the time, the harder it will be to deal with them. Now we have no other choice but to completely cut off this spiritual realm gate and destroy the formation completely."
Yi Zhan asked, "Can those old guys agree to do this?"
"You have to agree to it at this time." Bai Heng came to the two of them without knowing when. In just a moment, Wen Zhong and Lu Yao also rushed over. It was certainly not a coincidence that they came here, but they had already planned to do so during the battle. They came to Xuan Shuzhi and others and were about to start a private talk, but at this time they saw another figure suddenly spinning down from above and coming in front of them.
Seeing the last figure arriving, everyone who was about to speak fell silent and no one said anything.
The person who came was Ji Yuan. He looked at everyone expressionlessly. After casually dealing with a black snake, he threw the soft snake body away and said coldly: "Don't be on guard against me. I know what you want to do and I know the identity of that guy." The second half of his words was addressed to Wen Zhong who was wearing a mask.
Wen Zhong remained silent, and Xuan Shuzhi looked at Ji Yuan thoughtfully, as if he had guessed what he was going to say next.
Ji Yuan said: "I came here to ask you for help. I know you want to do the same thing as me."
Yi Zhan blurted out: "Do you really want to destroy the formation?"
Ji Yuan looked at him and said, "I need your help."
Some people are guarding here to control the gate to the spiritual realm, while some people are going everywhere to destroy the formations, so as to prevent the black snakes from entering the Xuanqing Continent again. But now the major sects of the spiritual realm are in chaos, and few people are willing to listen to Ji Yuan's words. Ji Yuan can only think of another way.
He said, "I will be responsible for the consequences of this matter. You just need to help me. Are you willing to agree?"
Everyone looked at each other in silence, but after a moment, they all nodded, because there was no time for them to hesitate.
But now they face the most important problem.
"We can't deal with these black snakes now, and we can't leave at all." Wen Zhong said this, and at this moment, a black snake broke through the crowd with an extremely fast speed and bit his arm. He switched the weapon to his left hand, raised his hand and swung the sword to cut off the black snake, then he covered his injured right arm with a pale face.
"How are you?" Bai Heng pursed her lips and came to Wen Zhong's side, wanting to check his injuries, but Wen Zhong quickly shook his head and told her to be careful, as now was definitely not the time to calm down and bandage his wounds.
They can no longer control the power of the Black Snake.
Looking around at this time, many people have been bitten by black snakes and almost died. These people are not ordinary people, but the most powerful masters in the entire Xuanqing Continent.
Such a scene made everyone's faces become increasingly ugly. Even if they didn't speak, they all knew what Wen Zhong's words just now meant.
They no longer had any way to control the current situation. Even if they wanted to go around and destroy the formation, they had no chance to leave.
"Who are these black snakes? How could they be so strong..."
Yi Zhan gritted his teeth and said calmly, "How can we deal with them? Are we just going to watch them grow stronger and stronger until they tire us to death or bite us to death here?"
Xuan Shuzhi remained silent, but his eyes were looking slowly in the direction where Hua Shi left in the distance.
He didn't know how to deal with the black snake, but he knew that if Fang Wei was here, he would definitely be able to find a way. After all, even he had to admit that Fang Wei seemed to always be able to lead them on the most correct path. As long as he was there, all difficulties seemed to be solved.
But not long ago, he sent Hua Shi and Fang Wei away from here.
He had been calm for too long over the years, and only this time did he try to change something using irrational methods.
Even if Fang Wei wasn't here, they might be able to do those things.
But he still underestimated his opponent.
Xuan Shuzhi felt that his strength was gradually draining away during the battle, while the number of black snakes remained unchanged, which made many people almost despair.
At this moment, a clear sword sound suddenly rang out from afar, like the cry of a white crane. Xuan Shu, Zhi Ji Yuan, Lu Yao and others sensed the sound almost at the same time and looked up into the distance.
At this moment, the wind stopped suddenly, and a snow-white sword light suddenly poured down from the clouds above the sky like a white rainbow, instantly shattering the black fog in the forest!
