Qiao Ye rested for about two hours and felt that his body had recovered a lot, and then he emerged from the roots of the tree.
The secret forest was quiet. Qiao Ye took out a compass-like treasure and took a look. It was almost three hours before nightfall.
Everyone has this thing, because it is difficult to tell the difference between day and night in Demonic Night City based on the color of the sky, so the guardians asked the weapon refiner to refine this little thing, which can tell the time.
And the meaning of nightfall is that riots are likely to occur again.
The riots that occur when the devil's night falls are intermittent. To be precise, they are relatively peaceful during the day. Although those creatures will appear more irritable and restless than usual, they will not necessarily attack each other. Of course, when they meet humans,
Except for special cases like Guiyin Lantern, they will almost all attack, but at least they will not gather in large numbers.
At night, those creatures will completely fall into madness.
Therefore, you can still relax and recover a little during the day, but it will be difficult after nightfall.
Based on past experience, there are generally two choices for boundary guardian apprentices. The strong ones will hunt at night because the harvest is very rich, and then rest during the day. The second option is to try every means to hide at night and come out to play in the autumn wind during the day.
It is impossible for Qiao Ye to choose the second option. Choosing the second option means that he does not expect to achieve much results and survives the evil night.
Well, now that it's almost nightfall, it's natural for Qiao Ye to get ready again.
But at this time...
A bright sword light appeared not far away, and then Qiao Ye heard a loud roar, and a big tree collapsed and hit the ground.
"Um?"
Qiao Ye raised her eyebrows, was someone fighting?
Qiao Ye had no intention of deliberately stealing other people's victory, nor did he mean to meddle in others' other people's business. He turned around and prepared to leave in the direction below, but before he could take his steps, Qiao Ye suddenly noticed that the movement was a little closer, and it turned out to be heading towards
Came here by myself.
Suddenly, Qiao Ye noticed that large areas of colorful lights and shadows appeared around her, and powder-like light spread in the air. Then, a group of colorful butterflies flew over Qiao Ye's head, looking extremely gorgeous.
"Qiao Ye..."
Lin Ziyi's voice suddenly sounded, and the light butterfly fell from the sky, and Lin Ziyi's figure appeared in the light.
Lin Ziyi looked extremely embarrassed. His body was covered in blood and there were injuries. Moreover, they were all new injuries. Qiao Ye even saw that one of Lin Ziyi's arms was still bleeding.
Lin Ziyi said anxiously: "Qiao Ye, something happened."
Qiao Ye nodded and said, "I have eyes and I can see."
Something had indeed happened to Lin Ziyi. Although it was not fatal, it was obviously a bit seriously injured.
Lin Ziyi shook his head and said: "It's not me, it's..."
Lin Ziyi finished speaking, pointed behind Qiao Ye and said: "Be careful behind you!"
Qiao Ye could clearly feel that a strong wind suddenly blew behind her, and something was approaching her quickly. She immediately turned around and took out her green umbrella.
Bang!
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded, and something struck the green umbrella, pushing Qiao Ye out. After sliding back a few meters, Qiao Ye stabilized her figure.
Looking down, Qiao Ye was immediately furious. A gap had been cut open in the green umbrella. It was unclear whether it could still be used, but it was definitely seriously damaged.
Qiao Ye looked up suddenly, and then couldn't help being stunned.
What was in front of him turned out to be a black mist, with the outline of a humanoid, without legs, floating in the air, but the body and hands were clearly visible. There were no facial features on the face, only two long and narrow red lights, which seemed to be the eyes of the other party.
.
Qiao Ye recalled that she didn't remember that the illustrated book Lin Ziyi had given her before recorded that there was such a creature in Magic Night City.
Qiao Ye couldn't help but look at Lin Ziyi and said, "What is this?"
Lin Ziyi shook his head and said: "I don't know, but be careful, this thing is very strong."
"Is it strong?"
Qiao Ye glanced at the Tsing Yi Umbrella in her hand, but she did not deny this. A single blow from the opponent could cause damage to a seventh-grade treasure phantom. Moreover, it was a seventh-grade treasure phantom that was mainly used for defense, so of course it would not be that weak.
.
Qiao Ye stretched out her hand to signal Lin Ziyi to move aside, then slowly walked to the side, stretched out her hand and held it in the air, and a piece of black smoke appeared in Qiao Ye's hand, and soon turned into a black spurge.
Just at this moment...
The outline of black mist struck in the direction of Qiao Ye again.
What a fast speed!
The outline of the black mist floated in the air and walked close to the ground. Its eyes dragged out two red lights. It moved at an unimaginable speed. It was about seven or eight meters away and arrived in front of Qiao Ye in an instant.
The next moment, the silhouette of the black mist raised its arms and slashed them towards Qiao Ye.
The moment the arms fell, they turned into two black knives and struck heavily on the black halberd's shaft.
Dang lang, ding lang!
A crisp chirping sound sounded, and sparks flew from the halberd pole.
Qiao Ye's shoulders sank slightly. The outline of the black mist was not only incredibly fast, but also quite terrifying in strength.
"However, it seems that it is not enough to kill me at this level!"
Qiao Ye shouted low, pushed up the black halberd, forcefully shook the opponent away, and then swung the halberd forward with all his strength.
The light of the halberd suddenly appeared, and the black halberd passed by the opponent's waist, directly cutting the opponent's body into two pieces.
but……
The opponent's body is made of condensed mist. After being cut open, the mist continues to squirm, and then recovers at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The next moment...
The outline of the black mist struck again, and his hands turned into swords, slashing at Qiao Ye continuously.
Qiao Ye squinted her eyes. This guy didn't look like a creature from Magic Night City, or to put it bluntly, he didn't look like a living creature. Of course, he couldn't be a human being, but he did have some kind of...
"What does martial spirit feel like?"
Qiao Ye couldn't help but murmur.
Qiao Ye suspected that what he was fighting was a martial spirit. However, if he had to talk about martial arts, Qiao Ye felt that the aura was a bit weird, not the same as the ordinary martial spirit aura.
Could it be the spiritual ability of the spiritual realm?
Qiao Ye thought as she blocked the attack from the black mist silhouette, and her eyes became sharp at the same time.
If your guess is correct, then the outline of the black mist is a martial spirit or a spiritual ability, which means that the attack is not ineffective. Even if the mist ball can be reorganized, it is still a consumption. As long as the attack is fierce enough, it can kill
Destroy!
"drink!"
While thinking about it, Qiao Ye used a strong force to shake away the outline of the black mist, and then swung his halberd across it, splitting the outline of the black mist into two pieces again.
but……
This time, Qiao Ye did not give the outline of the black mist a chance to easily re-condensate. At the moment when the mist was still squirming, Qiao Ye pounced on it again.
