The trajectory of the blade's strikes is ultimately predictable, making it increasingly difficult to dodge. Eventually, this will force you to leave the ground and jump.
At that time, dodging sword flashes in the air would be much more difficult than on the ground, but precisely because the angles of the sword flashes were becoming more and more tricky, the direction of the strike could still be vaguely determined.
"Go!" Wang Yao suddenly leaped into the air, the red thread in his hand being thrown towards a dark place below him with his shout.
Feeling a tightening in his hand, Wang Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had succeeded on his first try. His "pulling around" had finally led him to the source of the Shadowless Blade. This time, the Shadowless Blade and he had a mutually disliked relationship. No matter how cunning the blade's light was, it could no longer harm him.
Although he relaxed slightly, Wang Yao's task was not yet finished. After landing, he suddenly leaped outward, barely jumping out of the range of the Shadowless Blade. But then, the hairs on his body stood on end again.
Without hesitation, Wang Yao immediately unleashed his immortal technique "Iron Wall." A series of rapid "thud, thud, thud..." sounds rang out as a volley of arrows from the darkness pierced his "Iron Wall," penetrating several inches deep and remaining embedded there.
"Oh dear child, what are you trying to do? I have a navigation pearl here, come here quickly! It's so dark, what will I do if you run around aimlessly and get lost?" The Queen Mother of the West yelled again.
Wang Yao originally planned that his leap would not only be to escape the range of the Shadowless Blade, but also to take the opportunity to break free from the old woman's grasp, provoke the old woman to chase after him, and let the old lady move her body and dance some old-fashioned disco.
Unexpectedly, the old woman stood still and didn't move, but he himself triggered another mechanism in the magic circle, and the arrow came very quickly.
The first batch had just planted their arrows on the "fortified wall" when the second batch followed closely behind. In the blink of an eye, arrows had already pierced through the "fortified wall." Wang Yao realized that this was no good; if things continued like this, he would be shot to death by a hail of arrows before he was even cut by the Shadowless Blade.
Especially in the darkness, he had no way of knowing how far the arrows were coming from, so he couldn't use the "pulling and pulling" technique. He had no choice but to quickly take two steps back and activate the Shadowless Blade again.
Wang Yao watched carefully as the Shadowless Blade grazed his scalp, and nodded to himself. It seemed that the Shadowless Blade was indeed influenced by "rambling" and was reluctant to hurt an old acquaintance. The "good guy" effect was quite good.
With his mind made up, Wang Yao ignored the sudden flash of the gleaming blade in the darkness and leisurely walked back to the Queen Mother of the West's side.
"Why are you back?" the old woman asked Wang Yao in surprise.
"Didn't you call me here? We fought for ages, but he couldn't hit me, and I couldn't hurt him either. What else could we do? It was a waste of time," Wang Yao said angrily.
"Yes, yes, we can't waste time. Let's hurry up and go fight the Demon City." Unexpectedly, Wang Yao's words "waste time" seemed to remind the Queen Mother of the West. Her expression suddenly turned serious, and she pulled Wang Yao to turn right.
This turn actually grazed the edge of the area where the Shadowless Blade had just been, probably because the path was very narrow. The Queen Mother of the West walked on the inside, thus pushing Wang Yao back into the range of the Shadowless Blade.
The blade of light reappeared, posing no real threat, but its sudden appearance startled Wang Yao several times. The blade of light only disappeared into the darkness after the two of them had escaped the trap's range.
"Phew, that was close! You children are so healthy. If I had been hit, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to withstand it," the old woman exclaimed, patting her chest repeatedly.
"You clearly know the way, why did you push me into the Shadowless Blade?" Wang Yao asked the Queen Mother of the West in frustration. This old woman was too wicked. According to the directions of the Pathfinding Pearl, they could have completely avoided the Shadowless Blade, and even if they were walking, they could have safely gone around it one after the other.
But she insisted on pushing Wang Yao into the Shadowless Blade area and tormenting him for a while. Even after leaving, she still chose to walk side by side with him, intentionally making Wang Yao go through the threat of the Shadowless Blade again.
Luckily, Wang Yao had a "good person" protecting him, otherwise, wouldn't he have been very likely to die?
"Stove? What stove? Where do you see a stove?" The old woman pretended to be crazy again.
"The furnace is still far away, and all we're facing are bad guys!" Wang Yao said irritably.
"Dizzy? Why are you dizzy? This sound is unpleasant, but as long as you don't listen to it, you'll be fine." The old woman was talking nonsense again. Just as Wang Yao was about to retort, a faint melody suddenly entered his ears.
The melody seemed to be played by instruments from the six realms, such as the guzheng and guqin. The reason for saying "seemed" is that Wang Yao only heard two or three notes before he felt his spiritual power and blood vessels in his body become restless with the notes, and he could no longer keep his mind clear.
He forced himself to take two more steps forward, but the music suddenly changed. Wang Yao found that he couldn't even lift his legs. He tried to ask the old woman a question, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a mouthful of blood spurted out, following the "zheng zong" of music.
This startled Wang Yao half to death. He stared wide-eyed at the Queen Mother of the West in a panic.
"Oh dear, didn't I tell you not to listen? It's like a horrible noise in your ears. If you just ignored it, it would have passed. You're such a child, you have no self-control at all." The old woman started nagging him.
Wang Yao cursed inwardly, "You're talking nonsense! Do you think this is what I want to hear? This tune is relentlessly drilling into my ears, how can I ignore it?"
"Can you still speak? If you can, say a few words quickly, speak loudly, just enough to drown out the demonic voice. I don't know what unlucky thing I did last month, how did I end up running into a brat like you? If you get trapped to death by the demonic voice, how am I supposed to explain this to your family?"
