Chapter 300 Ghost King
Nan Xiao didn't want to expose Xiaoya's ability, so she hid Xiaoya in a magic weapon and sent Qiao Yue and the other three up first.
Gu An looked at the direction they disappeared in and moved to Nan Xiao's side. "Brother, what kind of magic weapon is this? How could I have never seen it before? It's even more powerful than the one forged by Senior Brother Yang. How much spirit stones are needed? I'll buy it."
Nan Xiao: "I also want to earn your spirit stone, but I only have one, I can't sell it."
“What a pity.”
There was a flash of regret in Gu An's eyes, and it was obvious that he really wanted it.
Qiao Yue, Yang Boyong and the other two had just stepped into the upper space and hadn't yet gained their footing when they felt their vision darken. A dense mass of black shadows, carrying a sinister aura, rushed over them like an overwhelming force.
Several people were well prepared and did not lose their composure in the face of the menacing black shadow.
Yang Boyong threw the magic weapon in his hand, and the magic weapon exuded a hot and deadly aura. Wherever it went, the black shadows dissipated, and a piece of open space was cleared in an instant.
Qiao Yue followed closely behind, her steps brisk, her hands forming hand seals like dancing butterflies, creating a formation. Runes flew from her fingertips, interweaving with light. In the blink of an eye, a magic circle was outlined above the clearing, trapping the black shadow within.
Song Hui and Ye Lingling stared intently at their surroundings. If any shadow broke through the cracks in the magic circle and escaped, they would swing their swords to kill it.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Although they were not brothers from the same sect, they had a good understanding of each other. During the period, only a slightly powerful evil ghost suddenly rushed out, delaying them for a while, but was finally killed by Ye Lingling with a sword.
They were very fast, and Nan Xiao was slightly surprised when he received their message.
Senior Brother Zhou and the others are guarding below, and Second Senior Sister and the others are guarding the upper level, which has reduced possible accidents to a minimum.
She found Bai Cheng, Li Buyan, Gu An and others.
"Senior brothers, please each of you take some disciples with you and leave in batches."
"OK."
"I'm fine."
"Can."
Nan Xiao quickly divided the disciples into different teams and asked Xiaoya to send Bai Cheng's team out first.
Everyone felt a tightness around their waists, and by the time they reacted, they were already on the ground.
Bai Cheng was slightly stunned. The surrounding scene was very unfamiliar and the spiritual energy was pitifully thin, but it was not as gloomy and depressing as the space below.
A gust of wind blew by, ruffling his hair. He couldn't help but feel dazed and muttered to himself, "It's coming out already?"
He subconsciously touched his waist, and the vines wrapped around his waist had disappeared.
"Is it really a magical weapon?"
Bai Cheng didn't think about it for long before the conversation among the young disciples brought him back to his senses.
"Finally, I'm out in the fresh air."
"Isn't it? I almost thought I was going to die in there."
"In the past few years, it's been either demons or monsters, and now even ghosts have appeared. It's too scary, and I don't know when it will stop."
“······”
In front of Chen Wenxuan and Nan Xiao, Bai Cheng looked honest and simple, without any ulterior motives. But in the eyes of the other disciples, he still had a lot of say.
He shouted an order: "Be alert all around and prepare to support other disciples!"
Upon hearing this, the disciples immediately stopped being casual, became serious in an instant, and took quick action.
"yes."
······
Xiaoya returned successfully and told Nanxiao that the person was brought back safely.
Nan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as everything went smoothly.
Then came the second group of people, Li Buyan...
The third group of people, Gu An...
The fourth group of people was Lu Huai. He originally wanted to stay until the end and go with Nan Xiao, but his resistance was futile, so he asked Nan Xiao to pack up and send him out.
Before leaving, Lu Huai accused with his eyes. His clear eyes were wide open and his eye sockets were red. His innocent expression was like a puppy abandoned by its owner, so pitiful.
Nan Xiao kicked him twice expressionlessly, like a heartless scumbag.
Now the only four people left are Nan Xiao, Chen Wenxuan, Su Yan and Zhou Shiqing.
She wrapped her vines around the three men's arms and said, "Brothers, once I pull you, you must retreat simultaneously."
The three of them stood in a triangle, each holding a single point. If any one of them were even slightly slower, they would be in danger of being pounced upon by the dark shadows and ghosts, and would be seriously injured if not killed.
The three of them answered at the same time: "Yes."
Chen Wenxuan looked at these crazy things, and the cruelty in his eyes could not be hidden.
He turned around and looked at Nan Xiao, and asked, "Junior Sister Nan, do you still have those explosive bombs? Leave a few for them before you leave."
Nan Xiao: “…”
She replied, “Yes.”
This time she didn't want to explode.
Nan Xiao exerted force, and the three men's arms tightened, feeling a pull. In unison, they simultaneously sheathed their swords, and the protective shield they had supported collapsed with a bang. Ten thousand ghosts howled and lunged in the direction they had vanished.
Zhou Shiqing and his companions each left behind a few sword energies, and killed all the evil spirits that pounced on them. Nan Xiao also generously left behind a few bombs.
The moment the figures left, the space below shook violently, causing considerable commotion. The ground cracked like fragile tissue paper, and the cracks rapidly spread. Accompanied by a pungent, rancid stench, a number of twisted and bizarre creatures slowly crawled out of the pitch-black cracks.
When they reached the second floor, Nan Xiao did the same thing and tightly wrapped Qiao Yue and the others together with vines.
"Second Senior Sister, hold on tight, let's go."
Their luck seemed to have run out. At the moment when they were about to break through the critical point, a ball of black mist attacked them. The vines of the small buds were cut off, and the tender leaves began to turn black.
Xiaoya's voice was weak and she cried: "Xiaoxiao, I'm in so much pain."
Several figures fell from the sky. Yang Boyong immediately threw out his magic weapon to clear a place for everyone to stay.
Zhou Shiqing and his companions had already formed a group to resist the flying black shadows.
Seeing Nan Xiao's figure sway, Qiao Yue held her arm and asked with concern: "Junior sister, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Nan Xiao's attention was all on Xiaoya at the moment. Seeing that two-thirds of her leaves were swallowed by the black air, she didn't care about anything else. She used her spiritual energy to protect its roots, stopped the spread of the black air, and then sent it into the space to be nurtured.
Chen Wenxuan frowned, keenly aware of something strange. He looked in one direction with sharp eyes and saw something else approaching.
Without thinking, he shook his wrist violently, and the magic sword in his hand spun like a stream of light, and with a "whoosh", it flew towards the direction of perception.
The black shadow approaching the spirit sword turned into wisps of white smoke and dissipated into the air the moment it touched the cold light.
After the commotion subsided, the area was temporarily clear. Everyone focused their attention and saw clearly what was behind the shadow.
A black robe fluttered in the wind. It looked like a human figure, but in fact it was just a skeleton covered with a black robe. Light blue flames were emitted from the two holes in the eyes, which exuded an indescribable eerie and strangeness in the dim environment.
The spirit sword stopped one meter away from the skeleton.
Every time the skeleton took a step forward, the spirit sword was forced to take a step back.
Nan Xiao: "These days... skeletons can also become spirits?"
She could even hear the sound of bones rubbing against each other as the skeleton walked.
Qiao Yue protected the person behind her and looked at the skeleton with a vigilant face: "Junior Sister, this is the Ghost King. He is the one who trapped us here."
Nan Xiao: “???”
What does the Ghost King look like?
Even if he doesn't have a handsome appearance, he should at least be a human being.
Seeing her look shocked, I thought she was afraid of this kind of thing. Ye Lingling put her arm around her shoulders, acting like a caring older sister, and comforted her, "Some ghosts died tragically in their lifetime, and their resentment lingers. Many of them only cultivate their bones instead of their flesh. You get used to it after seeing it so often."
"This Ghost King's bones are shiny and bright, and they are already very beautiful. Compared to us, they are equivalent to my senior brother's current appearance."
Su Yan: “???”
He is nothing compared to a skeleton.
