Perceiving the Nine Apertures only made his thinking and his use of power become more subtle and powerful.
But it doesn't actually increase his strength.
His physical strength is 800,000 jins, and it is still 800,000 jins at this time.
It's just that his use now is far more sophisticated than before.
Originally, this 800,000 kilograms of power could only exert the effect of 500,000 kilograms, or at most 600,000 kilograms, but now it can be used perfectly, almost to the extreme.
Improvement is indeed achieved, but it has limits.
This limit does not allow him to break through the strength span with the high-level black dragon demon in the innate realm.
While resisting the injuries in his body and escaping, Xiang Shang used his mental power and used a sword to break through all kinds of magic, desperately trying to stop the black dragon demon.
Although the ability to defeat all magic with one sword is an offensive magical power, many methods such as collapse, blocking, bombing, and pulling can also be used. It all depends on how to use it.
With Xiang Shang's current control over power, it is not impossible to influence the speed of the black dragon demon in a short period of time.
"roll!"
The black dragon demon couldn't bear to be disturbed, and suddenly became angry, and stretched out a claw.
Bang!
Before the flying sword could get closer, it was knocked away by the unparalleled power of this claw.
Xiang Shang's face turned pale and his mind became unstable.
His spiritual thoughts were gathered in the flying sword, and when the flying sword was attacked by the huge force, it was transmitted into the interior, which stirred up his mind and was almost scattered.
Fortunately, the flying sword itself is extremely tough, and with the obstacles offset, the force entering the interior is not strong, and Xiang Shang stabilizes quickly.
But at this time, he no longer dared to control the flying sword to harass him. Once the mark of spiritual thought was broken up, the flying sword might be taken away.
Xiang Shang quickly recalled the flying sword and let it enter the body again.
Then he took out a disc from the storage bag with extremely complex patterns and various avenue marks planted on it.
This disk is exactly the Void Moving Disk that Xiang Shang snatched from Lei Hong when he and Zhang Zi were surrounding him.
As soon as the disk came out, even the void was distorted.
There was no time to hesitate, Xiang Shang endured the pain of the real energy tearing his body, and poured it directly into it.
Buzz!
A dazzling light burst out from the Void Shifting Plate in an instant, distorting the void.
"Don't even think about escaping."
The face of the black dragon demon changed, and he flicked his tail and struck hard.
But this time, the feeling of collision did not come, it was empty.
The next moment, in the void five kilometers away, there was a violent spatial oscillation and distortion.
Xiang Shang's figure suddenly squeezed out.
Although the Void Shifting Plate is precious, the distance it can move is not too exaggerated. Five kilometers is already the limit of the Void Shifting Plate in Xiang Shang's hands.
"Haha, you can't escape."
The black dragon demon was overjoyed, and his body was like lightning. He instantly broke through three times the speed of sound and rushed towards Xiang Shang at top speed.
Xiang Shang's face turned pale and he rushed towards the ground without hesitation.
In the air, Xiang Shang had no hope of escaping.
The speed of the black dragon demon reached its limit, far exceeding him.
"The only solution for now is to escape underground."
Xiang Shang smiled bitterly. If he had no other choice, he would never be willing to dig a hole in the ground to escape like a mouse.
Mental power surged, and forty-nine small Qingming swords rushed out of his body in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, Qing Ming's small swords were combined into a circular drill bit. With a swipe, it sank into the ground, creating a large hole for people to enter and exit, and it continued to go deeper.
Xiang Shang rushed directly into it, and then the flying sword flew out, destroying everything around the underground, burying the big hole he made.
"You can't escape."
The distance of five kilometers, at the speed of the black dragon demon, spanned the past in a few breaths of time.
He had already seen Xiang Shang's behavior and sneered in his heart.
To deal with ordinary innate monsters, it might be possible to escape by drilling holes.
But he is a black dragon demon, a dragon evolved from a mud snake. Underground, his speed may not be as fast as in the void, but it is definitely not slow either.
The clogged soil, as it rushed in, directly crushed and expanded, forming a large hole for him to enter and exit. He rushed into it, following Xiang Shang's traces, and chased after Xiang Shang at high speed.
"No, it's still so fast underground."
Xiang Shang's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he felt despair in his heart.
Do you really want to die here?
"Go left!"
Just at this moment, the voice of Zi Ling, the Enlightenment Pearl Artifact Spirit, suddenly sounded in Xiang Shang's mind.
Xiang Shang was overjoyed and without hesitation, he quickly controlled the drill bit of Qingming's small sword and rushed to the left.
"What's on the left? Can you take me to escape?"
Xiang Shang asked.
"There is nothing on the left, but if you don't listen to me, you will definitely die. If you listen to me, you will have a chance of survival."
Zi Ling responded.
Xiang Shang naturally chose to listen to Zi Ling's advice.
Although she is just a weapon spirit, her knowledge is beyond imagination, and she may have a way to escape his pursuit.
"Go right, go forward one thousand meters, then continue left."
"Downward, tilting five hundred meters to the southeast."
"Go east. If there are spiritual stones, put down a thousand of them."
…
Zi Ling's voice kept ringing, and Xiang Shang followed the instructions one by one, constantly changing directions. Back and forth, left, right, up and down, walking quickly underground.
Sometimes, they would even rush into the originally dug tunnel from another direction. After running for a while, they would dig out a new tunnel.
From time to time, more or less spiritual stones are put down...
Gradually, Xiang Shang also discovered that Zi Ling was actually instructing him to arrange the formation.
Xiang Shang naturally knows something about formations, and he himself is quite proficient in formations.
But Xiang Shang couldn't understand the formation pointed out by Zi Ling at all.
It doesn't seem to be an advanced formation at all, not a hundred-knot formation, nor a thousand-knot formation. There is no need to lay out the patterns of the formation, let alone walk the formation steps or explore the formation.
It's just simple, drilling out passages one by one, and occasionally burying some spiritual stones.
However, it is worth mentioning that the coverage area of this formation is extremely wide, with a radius of dozens of miles, and everyone seems to be in the formation.
Underground, Xiang Shang was extremely fast, always maintaining a distance of more than a thousand meters from the black dragon demon. Although this distance was gradually shortening as time went by.
It is estimated that Xiang Shang will be caught up in less than ten breaths.
"Okay, hurry up and rush out of the ground, and then escape as fast as possible.
This gadget can only confuse him for five minutes. Whether you can escape depends on how fast you are."
Suddenly, Zi Ling reminded quickly.
Xiang Shang nodded and quickly controlled the Qing Ming sword to rush forward.
After a few breaths, Xiang Shang rushed out of the surface, and after just a brief deliberation of direction, he flew towards the distance at high speed.
