The sword light fell, and a burst of white mist appeared.
There was some surprise in Lin Ji's eyes. His sword clearly hit the guy who struck in secret, but it seemed as if he was dodged by the opponent.
And until now, he couldn't detect the opponent's existence. If it weren't for the abnormality of the aura just now, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect that there was a demon clan waiting for an opportunity to attack secretly.
"Jie Jie Jie, how could you find me?"
Strange laughter suddenly sounded, and then the white mist that had been cut out by Lin Ji with a sword suddenly spread out, completely covering Lin Ji's surroundings.
"What kind of method is this? Is it an innate magical power?"
Lin Ji found that his consciousness was compressed within a very small area, making it difficult to break through the strange white mist, so he could only temporarily protect Nangong Limeng behind him.
Originally, he was planning to protect Master Gu Hong again, but he didn't expect that before he could take action, Master Gu Hong suddenly opened his eyes and woke up, then flew into the air and stood next to Lin Ji.
"Fortunately, you woke up in time. This unknown demon clan should be coming for you and the head of the Nangong family." Lin Ji's face showed a hint of joy.
Master Gu Hong has woken up, and no matter how powerful the other party is, Master Gu Hong can easily solve it if he thinks about it.
"You are happy too early." Master Gu Hong suddenly said.
The smile on his face was still there, but the words he spoke made Lin Ji really unable to laugh.
"The sword just now has drained everything from me. Even so, it only exerted 70% of the power of that sword. It is a lucky thing that I can float to talk to you at this time. If you want to
Take action, don't count on me."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Lin Ji's face suddenly became extremely stiff.
"You can't do anything?"
"I have only reached the pinnacle of Taoism, and the sword just now was a real sword of Taoism. If I can use it with a Taoist weapon, I already have a solid foundation and a high level of cultivation." Master Gu Hong explained in an unhurried tone.
As he spoke, Master Gu Hong raised his eyebrows and looked at the increasingly dense white mist around him.
"This is not a monster, but a spirit."
"Spirit?" Lin Ji was stunned.
"The Zhu Snake White-Faced Demon is probably something like this." Master Gu Hong said casually, "Among the demons and monsters, the first three have their own ways to deal with them. Although they are troublesome, they can mostly be defeated with force, but this is the only one.
Spirits...are born and raised and hard to figure out."
As Master Gu Hong finished speaking, fragmentary shouts suddenly rang out from the depths of the surrounding white mist.
"Nangong Limeng..."
The head of the Nangong family was working hard to adjust his breath, so he naturally ignored him.
"Zhu Xiaoqi..."
Upon hearing this name, Lin Ji was stunned and asked curiously: "Who is this called... eh?"
Seeing that the face of Master Gu Hong turned ugly, Lin Ji immediately understood that Zhu Xiaoqi was the real name of Master Gu Hong.
"What's so funny? My parents gave birth to nine brothers and sisters. I am the seventh, so I am called Zhu Xiaoqi." Master Gu Hong shook his head and said, "This happened hundreds of years ago and is not worth mentioning.
."
Although he said this, Lin Ji always felt that Master Gu Hong still cared a little.
After all, this extremely clichéd name is always incompatible with the identity of the leader of the Taiyi Sect.
And at this moment, the ethereal voice sounded again.
"Lin Ji..."
Neither of the first two people agreed, and coupled with the strange environment around him, Lin Ji knew with the snap of his toes that he would never agree.
It's not like he hasn't dealt with spirits before.
In addition to the green and tree monsters like Green and Zi in Victoria, he has also seen a lot of harmful monsters.
As Master Gu Hong said, there are ways to deal with the first three types of demons and ghosts, but it is difficult to deal with spirits if one does not understand their nature and magical powers.
Their methods are too weird.
"Master, what is the origin of this red snake white-faced spirit, and how should I deal with it?" Lin Ji had no choice but to ask.
But just after he finished asking, he saw Master Gu Hong's head turned towards him very stiffly, and the smile on his face no longer gentle as before, but became extremely strange.
"No, you're not..."
Lin Ji was shocked. He immediately understood that he seemed to have been caught in a trap, but he couldn't figure out when he fell into the trap.
But before he could react, his face suddenly turned purple.
"Can't breathe, like drowning."
Lin Ji subconsciously grabbed his neck, and the strong feeling of suffocation made him feel like he was in another world.
Logically speaking, if he doesn't want to, it doesn't matter if he doesn't breathe for days and nights.
When a monk enters the Taoist realm, his physical body is already a Taoist body, which is innately cleansed and decontaminated. Breathing is just an instinct before entering the Taoist realm. It does not matter even if he does not breathe after entering the Taoist realm.
But at this moment, Lin Ji really felt the pain of suffocation.
His face became increasingly ugly, and his eyes nearly popped out.
He exhaled through his mouth, but a burst of bubbles came out.
In the same way, he finally realized that at some point, he had been surrounded by water, like a water prison, leaving him helpless.
"Jiejiejiejie, die and become the nourishment in my long river. Two of them are at the peak of Taoism, and one is in the unusual early stage of Taoism. Jiejiejie..."
In the lake composed of white mist, a long snake with red scales was swimming slowly. It had claws on its snake body, but it didn't look like a lizard. But the weirdest thing was the person on its head.
Face.
At this moment, the man's face was spitting out letters from time to time, and he lowered his head and looked at the lake below him.
Deep in the lake was Lin Ji, who had just answered its call.
What it loves to watch most is the scene of its prey falling into its trap, slowly suffocating in despair.
Watching the Taoist monk in the lake continue to struggle, the smile on its face became more and more crazier.
"Jiejie, I'll kill you later...wait, where are the people?!"
Suddenly, something unexpected happened.
Lin Ji, who was expected to die suddenly, suddenly disappeared.
In Zhu Snake's eyes, Lin Ji was still struggling, and then disappeared from its sight without a trace.
Just when Zhu Snake was surprised, most of the white mist behind it suddenly dissipated.
"What?"
Zhu She turned around, and what she saw was a huge phantom of the avenue. It was the incomplete Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish, but it was composed of gold and black.
Seeing this scene, Zhu She was stunned for a moment, then reacted suddenly and plunged into the cloudy lake.
"This is your method. It's a bit weird that this mist can turn into a lake out of thin air."
At this time, Lin Ji's body was still wet, and his white hair was also wet and scattered on both sides.
Although he activated the phantom on the avenue, he did not rush to take action. Instead, he took advantage of this rare opportunity to disperse the white mist and surveyed the unfamiliar environment around him.
"Still in the same place, Nangong Limeng is still there, and Master Gu Hong is still there."
"So everything just now was fabricated out of thin air? I'm afraid the only thing that is true is Zhu Xiaoqi's name."
Thinking of this, the murderous aura in Lin Ji's eyes gradually solidified.
He had almost died just now, but now he was really angry.
