Somewhere in the dark forest, two young men were walking quickly through the shadows.
Both of them are dressed as scholars. One of them has a delicate appearance, with eyebrows like an ink painting and a face like a crown jade. He is Fang Xi, the "Bitter Sword" among the four skills of the Heart Sword.
The other person is tall and thin, with prominent cheekbones. He is also one of the Four Uniques, "Shocking Sword" Cao Rui.
The two walked side by side at extremely fast speeds, leaving strange sword marks wherever they passed.
These sword marks spread spontaneously and rapidly around, gradually blending into the shadows, as if looking for something...
I don't know how long it took, but Cao Rui, who was running quickly, suddenly stopped and frowned slightly.
Fang Xi had to stop after him, and asked with a puzzled face: "What's wrong?"
Cao Rui did not answer immediately, but stretched out his hand and lightly scratched the tree trunk next to him.
The bark was immediately torn open, revealing a dark interior that looked like flesh and blood.
At the same time, Cao Rui's third eye appeared on his forehead. He only glanced at the tree trunk, and a layer of light blue smoke actually appeared inside the tree trunk.
"Eh?" Fang Xi was stunned for a moment, then said: "This is... Taoist spiritual power?"
"Not bad!" Cao Rui nodded.
His "Shocking Eyes" are not only able to capture people's hearts, but they can also see the remnants of mana. Even a tiny bit of mana cannot escape his eyes.
"It seems that we are not the only ones in this dark forest...people from the Dao Alliance are also here!" Cao Rui said with a serious face.
After hearing this, Fang Xi thought thoughtfully: "Well... in the entire World Disaster Realm, only the Dark Forest is the most suitable place to recuperate. It's not surprising that people from the Dao Alliance come here. Maybe some of them are also injured."
"Having said that, don't be careless."
Cao Rui narrowed his eyes slightly: "I always feel that this discussion of Taoism in the virtual realm is different from the past. After all, there is a blood feud between Taoism and Confucianism. We must be careful."
"Yeah." Fang Xi nodded.
"Can you still sense Fang Ping?" Cao Rui asked.
"No, there is unknown interference in the World Disaster Realm. Even we, brother and sister, can no longer sense each other. However, we both have family heirloom jade pendants, which can roughly determine each other's location."
Fang Xi said, taking out half of the jade pendant from the storage ring.
There is a ray of glow in the incomplete part of the jade pendant, which sinks into the void like a rope, pointing to a certain direction in the distance.
"It should be not far ahead." Fang Xi smiled.
"Very good." Cao Rui also had a smile on his face.
The four of them, Heart Sword, are brothers and sisters, and they would not have acted separately in this world-disastrous virtual world. However, as fate would have it, an undead storm suddenly appeared without any warning, and the four of them were scattered.
Fortunately, Fang Xi and Cao Rui reunited soon.
Since the location where they encountered the undead storm was not far from the dark forest, it was guessed that Fang Ping would probably come here.
Sure enough, after entering the dark forest, Fang Xi's jade pendant started to sense.
The two followed up all the way, not far from Fang Ping's accident.
"The virtual realm of the world is full of unknown danger. The four of us must not be separated. First find Master Fang, and then go to Master Duanmu."
"Um!"
The two did not stay again and continued to run forward, the speed was a little faster than before.
After about half an hour, there was a faint sound of fighting ahead.
Fang Xi's face changed slightly, and immediately stretched a sword tactic, gently scratched the fog in front of him.
"Give me!"
As the sword gas poured out, the fog that blocked the consciousness in front of it broke away, revealing a large number of empty places in the forest.
On the open space, a charming woman is being besieged by seven monsters.
"sister!"
The moment I saw the woman, Fang Xi's eyes showed a surprise.
This woman is Fang Ping, a "desire sword", one of the four must -have swords! As for those monsters who siege her, they are unique to the dark forest.
These spiritual bodies are like flowing water. They can integrate all things, have good strength, and never act alone. Every time they appear, they are in groups.
At this moment, Fang Ping used a enemy seven, and it was obviously unable to fight.
Fang Xi rushed up immediately when he saw this scene.
He and Fang Ping had been practicing together since he was a child. The two sisters and brothers were very deeply affectionate. This time, when he encountered a necromancer, Fang Ping was injured just to protect Fang Xi.
Seeing that her sister was siege by the sky, Fang Xi rushed into the battlefield without hesitation.
"Sister, I'll help you!"
Fang Xi ’s sword tactics were chopped to the nearest spirituality.
The response of the spirituality is also very fast, and it quickly entered the bottom of the ground. It didn't take long for it to come out of the ancient tree nearby.
"Fang Xi, I'm almost ..."
Fang Ping's voice in the fight was weak, her face was pale, and she couldn't support it.
When Fang Xi saw this, he was shocked.
He knew that Fang Ping was seriously injured in the Dead Storm, but now he has been attacked by seven spirits for so long. It is likely that the mana is bottomed out.
If Fang Ping's injury will be even more serious if he is attacked by Lingxu!
Thinking of this, Fang Xi did not hesitate at all. The "eight bitterness" sword light was stunned, and the Tianxu of the road was forced back one by one, and then rushed to Fang Ping's position.
At the same time, Cao Rui also arrived at the battlefield.
But he did not join the battle immediately, but jumped into a nearby ancient tree, settled high, and looked down at the entire battlefield.
"strangeness……"
Cao Rui squinted his eyes slightly, and a doubt flashed in his eyes.
"Although the strength of these spirituality is not weak, why did not use their destiny magical powers to attack only with brute force?"
Cao Rui discovered doubts, opened his forehead "Scared Eye", and swept to the nearest day of the day.
The next moment, his face changed greatly!
"Fang Xi, be careful!"
Cao Rui's loud shout echoed through the forest.
At this moment, Fang Xi was less than ten feet away from Fang Ping.
Although he desperately wanted to rescue Fang Ping, because of his trust in Cao Rui, he subconsciously stopped and did not get closer.
At this moment, Fang Ping rolled her eyes, revealing strange red pupils.
"hey-hey."
A sinister laughter came from Fang Ping's mouth, like an evil ghost who had been trapped for thousands of years, and his voice was full of resentment!
At the same time, a scarlet glow spurted out from her mouth at an extremely fast speed, arriving in front of Fang Xi in an instant.
Such a close distance and a sudden attack, even Fang Xi couldn't react.
He only had time to create a layer of protective spiritual light, but it couldn't block the scarlet glow. In an instant, his defense was torn open and he passed through his chest!
"Well..."
Fang Xi groaned and knelt down on one knee.
Before he could react, the seven "Lingxu" around him all changed their appearance. They no longer looked like flowing water. Their whole bodies became as black as ink, and they were shaped like apes, with their arms extremely long.
"Phantom ghost?"
Cao Rui from a distance recognized it at a glance. This was the "phantom ghost" recorded in Xuanling Cave's "Heart Sutra for Controlling Ghosts"!
"My good brother, you are already here, why do you stop? Come to my sister quickly!"
Fang Ping chuckled and raised her finger towards Fang Xi.
Her voice was no different from usual, even her breath was exactly the same, but her eyes were scarlet and looked very weird!
After Fang Xi heard this, her consciousness felt as if someone had hit her hard, and her eyes showed confusion.
"Fang Xi, don't listen to her!"
Cao Rui's loud shout came from the woods, like thunder on the ground, waking Fang Xi out of her brief confusion.
At the same time, a sword light rushed from behind, almost grazing Fang Xi's back.
Fang Xi woke up instantly.
He did not dodge and allowed the sword pill to pass by him.
The next moment, a shrill ghost scream came from the left side. It turned out that the nearest "Phantom Ghost" was hit by the sword pill and was split in half instantly.
"We have fallen into a trap, let's retreat first!"
Cao Rui was very decisive and secretly sent a message to Fang Xi.
However, at this moment, Fang Xi's heart was as sharp as a knife.
There is no mistake, every song is published and every content is read one by one!
Because he knew that Fang Ping was dead!
It was the Taoist "Ghost Controlling Heart Sutra" that made Fang Ping stand here, but her true spirit and soul have dissipated, and now she is just a flesh and blood puppet controlled by the "resurrection ghost".
"sister……"
Fang Xi looked at Fang Ping.
Although her appearance remains the same, her beauty has passed away, leaving only an empty shell.
Recalling all the past events, at this moment, Fang Xi's heart was torn, her chest was filled with suffocation, and she could hardly breathe.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Hurry up!"
Cao Rui's voice sounded again, closer to before, and more anxious.
Fang Xi looked back and found that Cao Rui had rushed into the battlefield.
"Brother, my sister and her ..." Fang Xi's eyes shed tears.
"People can't be resurrected. Let's go first and talk about it. When you find Brother Duanmu, the people who come to the Dao League to revenge and hate!"
After he heard it, Fang Xi finally recovered.
"Brother said good!"
His eyes were revealed, his hands finged, "Eight Bit" Jian Wan came out, stabbing the closest "fantasy ghost".
The two did not have a love war. After tearing a gap, they immediately showed the "Jiu Xiao Wing", trying to break through from the southeast.
But at this time, a loud laughter sounded in the woods:
"Two, since it comes, why should you be anxious?"
The words did not fall, and Fang Xi's head suddenly torn the void, and a huge evil ghost flashed out, as if he had been waiting for him here.
This evil ghost has ten feet high, and the bull head ape body. As soon as he appeared, he held a fist and hit.
Boom!
The unimaginable horror giant power is like a mountain tsunami, sweeping Fang Xi.
Fang Xi's face changed greatly, and immediately faced the sword.
But he had just urged the mana, and the scarlet glow that had been shot into the body suddenly broke out, and the meridians of more than half were sealed.
The power of the "Eight Bitter" swords was lost in an instant, and the power of this punch could not be blocked at all.
"puff!"
Fang Xi raised his head and sprayed large blood, his buns were scattered, and his body was like a short -term kite. He flew out backwards.
"Master!"
When Cao Rui saw this, his face changed greatly.
He rushed to Fang Xi without hesitation, and at the same time, he rushed into a rush. He brushed a glory from behind his head and turned into an ancient clock in the air in the air.
when!
At the moment Gu Zhong landed, the huge evil spirits also flashed, and the "bombard" punch to Fang Xi, but was blocked by the ancient bell.
The huge power did not break the ancient bell, but was rebounded back. In the air, it made a burst of bursts, flying the evil spirits for thousands of feet!
"Good Cao Rui, he can save people from the hands of" God's Ghost "!"
There was a laugh in the woods.
Immediately afterwards, an old man poured back his hands and walked out slowly from the shadow.
Cao Rui saw the person clearly, and immediately drank: "It's really you, Zuo Xuan!"
"Oh, the whole Dongyun Lingzhou, who can control ghosts like drinking water, I am afraid that there are only old husbands." Zuo Xuan said with a smile.
"Tao, although the Confucianism has disputes, but not fighting for life and death, why do you want to be cruel?"
"Humph, Taoism and Confucianism are just superficially polite. Sooner or later there will be a battle! The so-called 'strike first to gain the upper hand', fellow Taoist Cao, don't you understand this principle?"
"What a 'strike first to gain advantage'..." Cao Rui gritted his teeth: "So, you killed Fang Ping?"
"She deserves to die. If she hadn't done it first, how could she have ended up like this?" Zuo Xuan said lightly.
Cao Rui didn't believe it at all and snorted coldly: "It sounds nice, but it's just an excuse for you to kill people. It seems that you want to provoke a war between Taoism and Confucianism?"
After hearing this, Zuo Xuan laughed several times and shouted: "Cao Rui, don't you understand? It's not that I provoked the war between Taoism and Confucianism, but the war between Taoism and Confucianism has already begun! This discussion of Taoism in the virtual realm is not yours.
If we kill them all, we will slaughter you all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a large amount of black smoke came out from behind Zuo Xuan.
The black smoke continued to evolve in mid-air, turning into all kinds of evil spirits.
There were only a few hundred in the beginning, but these evil ghosts were able to split themselves, giving birth to two, then three, and they continued to evolve, eventually forming a vast sea of ghosts that enveloped hundreds of miles in radius.
At a glance, I saw dark ghost clouds covering the sky over the forest, without light and airtight!
"Wangui Chaozong!"
Cao Rui's pupils shrank suddenly.
He has heard that this trick is the ultimate secret technique of the "Heart Sutra of Controlling Ghosts". It can control all ghosts, eat human flesh and blood, and devour human souls. It is extremely weird!
Seeing the dark evil spirits sweeping in from all directions, the first thing Cao Rui thought of was not himself, but his junior brother Fang Xi.
When he turned around to look, he found that his secret skills could not resist the "Ten Thousand Ghosts Chaozong".
In just a few moments, the "ancient bell" condensed by sword energy had been eroded by evil spirits, and fine cracks appeared on the surface.
It's obvious that I can't hold on much longer!
"Junior Brother Fang..."
Cao Rui knew that he was seriously injured. Once his secret technique was broken, Fang Xi would never be able to resist the "Ten Thousand Ghosts Chaozong".
As his mind was spinning, Cao Rui suddenly pinched the sword technique, and the Zanpaku Sword rushed into the air, and actually turned into a thunder and fell from the sky!
Boom!
Amidst the loud noise, the sword light fell to the ground, causing bright ripples.
Thousands of evil spirits were frightened by the thunder, and they stopped in place at the same time, as if they had been petrified.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cao Rui's figure flashed again and again, and soon approached Fang Xi.
"Junior brother, follow me, let's work together to fight a bloody path!"
"Um!"
Seeing how powerful his senior brother was, Fang Xi was inspired by him. He endured severe pain and activated the Eight Swords of Suffering, hoping to break out from the siege of evil spirits.
At this moment, a rough female voice suddenly sounded in the air: "So this is the 'Shocking Sword'? Humph, I think it's nothing more than that!"
