In the palace surrounded by shadows, a hill-like shadow monster was particularly dark and distinct from the shadows next to it.
If someone has a pair of eyes that are particularly capable of distinguishing darkness, they can see that the behemoth is a giant with a head and feet.
It is said to be a giant, but when you look closely it doesn't look like a human being. Its head is square and square, like a complete brick. It has no eyes or ears at all, except for a round hole at the bottom. It doesn't even look like a mouth.
More like the mouthparts of an insect.
In the darkness, it lay on the ground. Its chest and abdomen were several feet high. Its entire body filled the wide hall, making people wonder how it got in upright. The big mouth was not closed, and it looked like it was snoring.
But since it is silent, it can't help but breathe in a shadow and spit out a richer shadow.
"boom--"
Suddenly, a thunderous sound sounded from the next door of the palace!
It was like thunder in the sky, and like thousands of horses galloping. The sound was so loud that it could be heard clearly dozens of miles away.
Don't say anyone is sleeping, but if a mortal is still breathing, he must be jolted to his feet.
In the palace, the giant remained motionless, still breathing shadows.
The sound rang alone for a while, seeming to feel lonely, and then slowly stopped.
The surroundings returned to a dead water-like silence.
After a while, a light lit up outside the hall.
The light was very bright, almost shining straight into the palace. A beam of light hit the window screen and hit the giant's face almost straight.
The giant is still breathing shadows.
After a while, the light went out and the surrounding area became dim again.
After a period of silence between sound and light, a shadow slipped through the crack in the door of the hall.
Different from those dark shadows, this shadow is full of colors and lifelike. It is a girl. Only she is stuck to the ground, as flat as a fine painting, so she can squeeze in through the narrow crack in the door.
The girl slipped in through the crack in the door, which went smoothly, but the moment she entered the inner hall through the door——
The giant stopped breathing shadows.
It didn't make any sound, it was silent when it was swallowing, and it was silent when it stopped.
However, at this moment, in the silence, there was the sound of a wild animal panting before preying.
The silence speaks.
The girl was so frightened that her hair almost stood on end.
The giant's weird head seemed to tremble and was about to turn around. Before it could turn around, the girl's shadow slipped out through the crack in the door.
After she slipped out, the giant paused for a moment, put his head down again, and began to spit out shadows silently without any change.
After another period of calm, the windows of the palace were opened.
This window was opened from the outside. In fact, it was locked inside, but someone outside forcefully smashed the window open, making a loud "bang" sound.
As usual, the giant didn't respond.
Then, a white shadow suddenly appeared outside the window.
It was a white fox, holding a lamp in its mouth, lying on the window frame in an extremely arrogant posture, staring at the giant with two green eyes.
It stabilized its body and stared at the giant to make sure that it was not disturbed. Then it lightly jumped over the window frame and landed in the hall.
When it took off, everything went as usual. The moment it landed, the giant moved.
Instead of stopping hesitating and making little movements like his head trembling like before, he suddenly sat up and stretched out his hand to grab the white fox like lightning.
This time the rabbit rises and the falcon falls, without any warning!
It's hard to imagine that a giant mountain-like thing can be so agile, more agile than the beasts in the mountains and forests. It can turn over, sit up, and take action in the blink of an eye. Just as it takes action, its huge palm has already grasped the window frame.
The white fox kept staring at it. The moment it took action, the white fox turned around and ran away. Although the giant was fast, it moved even faster. The moment the giant hit the window lattice, it had already jumped out of the window.
The big hand seemed to realize immediately that something was wrong, and immediately withdrew its hand. After withdrawing its hand, there were still several shadows on the window lattice that were so thick that they could not be removed, which was extremely eye-catching, as if clusters of black fire were burning.
The target of the white fox disappeared, and the giant had no intention of lying down anymore and immediately came out of the hall.
Such a huge behemoth, lying in the main hall and almost unable to turn around, actually got out of a window that was less than a person tall. When it got through the window, it seemed to turn into a thinner shadow for a moment, or simply a
It was deformed and elongated. In short, it was just a momentary change. From a human perspective, it was as if it had completely crawled out of the window with such a huge body.
However, it paused after it came out.
There were only thick shadows around, and no shadow of the white fox could be seen. The huge body stood there, seemingly at a loss, leaning against the hall that was half as short as it.
“Auntie—here!”
At the corner in the distance, a thin shadow of a girl was waving, making a sound like a mosquito.
Fortunately, she was carrying a lamp, and the light stood out in the shadows and could be seen from a distance.
The white fox ran over as if it were flying, stopped in front of her with the light on, and spoke in a woman's voice at a normal volume, saying: "You don't need to be so quiet, that idiot can't hear you."
The shadow girl, who was naturally Ah Qin, said: "I know, we tried it just now, and the sound didn't move, and the lights didn't respond either. It can't hear or see. But it's so keen. As soon as I entered the hall, it
You know, it scared me just now. I whispered without knowing it."
The white fox, also known as Ling Baoyu, breathed a sigh of relief and said: "After all, it is a powerful creature from the Kingdom of Shadows, so it naturally has special abilities. Come to think of it, the Kingdom of Shadows is surrounded by shadows on all sides, without color or sound. It is a dark world. To
What can they see and hear? But they must have their own sensing methods, which may be better than eyes and ears. But we don’t know.”
She analyzed Ah Qin calmly: "However, its senses are not completely sharp. When you went in, it only felt and did not respond quickly. It seems that your existence is very weak. I don't know if it is because the reflection of you is also
Is it a kind of shadow that doesn’t feel anything unusual? Or is it because you are so flat and stuck to the ground that it can’t feel it?”
Ah Qin thought for a while and said: "If it is flat and it can't sense, does that mean it relies on the shape of the object to sense? Is it like a bat? If there are obstacles, it can feel, but the words and paintings cannot be seen?"
Ling Baoyu said: "It should be. It would be better if it was just based on the shape, because it can also be deceived. It's just a different way of deceiving. I'm afraid it can distinguish the breath, and it's not the breath of a living person. I don't think so.
It's not a living person, but it can detect it. If it can really distinguish the feelings of all aliens except the shadow, it really can't be deceived."
Ah Qin asked: "Auntie, can your swordsmanship deceive it?"
Ling Baoyu said angrily: "Didn't you just see me? You can't be deceived."
Ah Qin said: "No, no, I mean really using your sword skills to hide yourself in people's curiosity..."
Ling Baoyu was silent for a moment and said: "I just used sword skills."
Ah Qin was also silent, and Ling Baoyu followed suit. Then in order to relieve the embarrassment, he said hastily: "Of course it is not my best swordsmanship. My hiding should be hidden in people's curiosity. There is no one here now, where can I hide? I
If I am not here in person, you are not considered a 'person', and Tang Zhao is not here at this moment, so my swordsmanship is aimless, so it will naturally be compromised, otherwise...otherwise..."
She said a few words otherwise, then suddenly sighed and said: "My sword skills are difficult to deal with. This monster has no heart, so it just defeats me."
Each sword has its own special direction. Ling Baoyu's two sword intentions are both miraculous on people, and they may not be ineffective against heavenly demons, because heavenly demons actually have seven emotions and six desires, and are not fundamentally different from humans. And if you have teammates,
As an assistant, it might not be impossible to help fight those unintentional monsters, or even fight against natural disasters. To say the least, she doesn't even have teammates. She still has herself. She is also a human being, with curiosity and suspicion. She can provide assistance to herself, although she doesn't have any teammates.
So flexible and able to move around.
The most deceptive thing is the situation in front of me. The monster is unintentional and does not accept her direct mental attack and confusion. There is no one around her, including herself, and she has no basis for her sword skills. It is as if she has been disarmed.
Ling Baoyu couldn't help but said angrily: "That boy Tang Zhao is not here. He is here. Although he is just a swordsman, the sword elephant can overcome shadows. I can also use my swordsmanship. If I help each other with him, how can we be like now?
So passive? Where has he been?"
It turned its head and glanced in the direction of the Pearl Palace, feeling confused and worried.
Did she really fall into the Pearl Palace? She had never been to that place. It was said to be a forbidden area, and even the eldest and second sisters were not allowed to enter. If Tang Zhao really fell in, how would he get out?
Ah Qin said: "How about I give it a try."
Ling Baoyu was stunned and said: "What are you trying?"
Ah Qin said: "I am also a swordsman, and I can also kill enemies! Now it's my turn!"
Ling Baoyu subconsciously said: "No! I am here, where is your turn..."
Ah Qin was about to retort when he saw a large amount of thick smoke rising in the distance.
The giant didn't sense Ling Baoyu, and didn't give up and go back to sleep. Instead, he stayed for a while, suddenly made some decision, raised his head, and opened his mouth.
A large amount of black smoke came out of its mouth. The black smoke was so thick that it broke through the shadows. It made no sound, but the momentum of the black shadow seemed to be roaring.
The black smoke gathered above, covering the sky like dark clouds for an instant, seemingly endless. It made people wonder how even a huge giant could store so much black smoke in his body if his body had an upper limit.
However, if you look carefully, after the black smoke is ejected, the giant's body gradually becomes smaller, as if part of it is pouring out from its body. It's just that the part released is far more than the shrunken part.
After spraying for a long time, the black smoke gradually stopped. Then, the black cloud began to squirm and gradually took shape.
Arms...legs...head...
Each limb has more than one.
Finally, four giants half the size of the original giants emerged from the black clouds, and together with the half-sized giants, they rushed in five directions at the same time.
