The owl's head fell from the air and rolled several times on the ground, covered with countless mud and dust.
There was an inexplicable look of shock on the shepherd's face, and it was obvious that he himself had not expected such an outcome at all.
In fact, if Su Anran and Song Jue were not there, with his domain ability, he would indeed be able to kill Cheng Zhong forcefully - with the power required to consume the majestic thunder light, even if Cheng Zhong takes action at the risk of his life,
He can only take five or six shots at most, before he will die due to exhaustion of life force.
It was Cheng Zhong's actions that made Su Anran understand why He Lianpo, the former owner and priest of Linshan Villa, was still like a candle in the wind even though he was not even half a hundred years old.
It turns out that this situation occurs because the foundation is severely damaged due to excessive consumption of vitality.
This kind of problem that damages the foundation, even in the mysterious world, is almost equivalent to a terminal illness - with the above-mentioned sect's background and all the sect's power and resources, it may be possible to recover, but at most it can only
If one person is cured, the entire sect is basically declared destroyed - let alone the demon world.
Therefore, if the shepherd had not gone out without reading the almanac, Cheng Zhong would have been defeated based on his strength alone.
It's a pity that there is no if in the world.
So the shepherd's heart was broken and his head moved.
A large number of soul-eating dogs fled in all directions, the red light in their eyes gradually disappeared, and they fell to the ground like puppets that had lost their power.
Their skin and flesh soon turned into a puddle of foul-smelling black mud, with no skeleton visible.
The dark and lightless underworld also gradually dissipated.
But at this time, the outside world has begun to enter the darkest time, so even if the underworld begins to dissipate, it is no longer bright.
The only thing that could be counted was the terrifying atmosphere that was so cramped and depressing that it was almost breathless, and it disappeared immediately.
Cheng Zhong looked at all this with disbelief.
"this……"
He looked at Song Jue beside him and didn't understand what Song Jue had done just now.
Then he looked at Su Anran, and couldn't understand even more why Su Anran, whose aura was weaker than his own, could actually kill the shepherd, one of the twenty-four strings, who was a big demon equivalent to a demon hunter general!
Even if the demon-suppressing stone of Amahara Shrine has not been contaminated, the demon-purifying effect in the shrine can still suppress the shepherd. At most, it will only slightly reduce his individual strength. It is impossible to suppress his other abilities. After all,
Priest Zhao who was sitting in the center had his head removed.
Therefore, Cheng Zhong really couldn't understand it.
As everyone knows, demons like Shepherd, who are not very powerful in their own right and rely solely on the soul-eating dogs in their domain to run rampant, were defeated by a sword cultivator like Su Anran, who is famous for his lethality.
The weakening effect of the demon-purifying area has just reduced the hardness of the shepherd's body to a level where Su Anran can also cause damage - to put it simply, it can break the defense.
As for the field abilities that cannot be suppressed, it is actually because the effect of the shepherd's field [Pasture] is limited: if it is a war of attrition, then not to mention that Su Anran only has one person, even if there are ten more, it will not help. After all, no one knows,
How long has Shepherd been famous? How many people has he killed by using this realm? How many evil spirits are stored in the realm?
Just looking at the continuous waves of soul-eating dogs before and after, Su Anran would not believe it if there were not tens of thousands of people.
But what the shepherd didn't expect was that Song Jue's spell might have defeated his soul-eating dog.
Since yin and yang magic has the word "yin and yang", it is natural that there are also spells for killing such souls - in the history of the development of the mysterious world, magic and ghost magic, divination, feng shui and so on.
All spells can be classified into the category of yin and yang spells. So let alone ghosts and the like, even if the shepherd can create zombies and other creatures, Song Jue still has the means to deal with them.
Of course, the lethality of Yin Yang magic in dealing with ghosts and living corpses is naturally inferior to that of the two major lightning techniques, but it is better because of its more comprehensive methods.
After glancing at Cheng Zhong who was a little stunned next to him, Song Jue walked towards Su Anran, his eyebrows furrowed.
Su Anran looked at Song Jue and saw the solemn look on his face, and immediately said, "You feel it too, right?"
"Yes." Song Jue nodded.
"It seems that it is not my imagination." Su Anran took a breath and looked at the shepherd who had become a headless corpse again.
Although there is not too much demonic energy in the surrounding air - the demon-purifying area laid out by the demon-removing rope can suppress demons largely because the demon-removing rope has the ability to cleanse and eliminate demons.
The effect of demonic energy can naturally play a certain weakening role for demons who strengthen their own strength by absorbing demonic aura - but there is still a smell unique to demons that has not really dissipated.
Su Anran and Song Jue didn't know what this smell specifically meant before. It wasn't until Cheng Zhong revealed that there were demons hiding in Tianyuan Shrine that they knew the origin of the smell. Therefore, at this time, the smell
It still exists, Su Anran and Song Jue will show such solemn expressions.
Perhaps for Cheng Zhong, this demonic stench, which has faded a lot, is proof of the shepherd's death.
But you must know that Su Anran and Song Jue's judgment standards are not as superficial as those of the unique demon hunters in this world: the unique odor of demons has indeed become lighter, but the odor continues continuously.
Distribution, but it did not end just because of the death of the shepherd.
You know, the death of those soul-eating dogs turned into a pool of smelly pus in an instant.
But if you observe carefully from the beginning, you can find that the death methods of the soul-eating dogs that died when the shepherd died are completely different from those that were killed by Song Jue at the beginning. If it must be
To be clear, the soul-eating dog that turned into pus looks more like a domain magical power that lost its ability to survive after being released, so it turned into the most original "raw material" again, rather than a magic weapon.
It was only after the magic power was interrupted that it was completely destroyed.
There is an essential difference between the two.
Of course, the most important point is that Su Anran and Song Jue are both Xuanjie monks. They know the specific power of the "domain" ability. Naturally, they also know that after the death of the monks who used the domain, they
What will the field become?
"The heart has been destroyed and the head has been chopped off. How can you still live like this?"
Song Jue looked at Su Anran with doubts in his eyes.
However, she was not really stupid enough to say this to her mouth, but communicated with Su Anran through spiritual communication.
The heart is the source of Qi and blood.
Xuanjie monks start from the Qi Gathering Realm where they gain strength, then go to the Divine Sea Realm where they begin to nurture and strengthen their spiritual consciousness, and then step into the Orifice Realm where the organs are condensed. Everything is for the purpose of "rebirth" and "cleansing".
These eight words: marrow blood transfusion".
The most important thing among them is naturally the heart.
Even Su Anran, who became a monk halfway, knows this common sense.
Therefore, in the understanding of Xuanjie, whether it is a human or a monster, before the second soul is condensed, as long as the heart is destroyed or the body is separated, it will be impossible to die, even if the Da Luo Immortal comes to earth.
He can't be saved either.
And what happened to the shepherds?
Not only was his heart pierced by Su Anran's sword, but it was also crushed by the infiltrated sword energy, and his head was even chopped off.
How can we still survive when the foundation for our livelihood is gone?!
Even if the shepherd is one of the twenty-four strings, equivalent to a monk in the Soul Condensation Realm in the Xuan Realm, the demons in the demon world do not have the Dharma phase and the second soul, so it is impossible to survive such a heavy blow.
Su Anran had previously thought that the shepherd was still alive, just as Song Jue had thought.
But if he is the only one who feels something is wrong, then it can be said to be an illusion and his own suspicion.
But even Song Jue said so...
Su Anran's eyes couldn't help but become solemn again.
But the next second, he suddenly realized something.
He made a hand gesture with his hands together, and there was a vortex swirling around his fingertips.
Then move forward a little.
The cyclonic sword flew out and shot towards the shepherd's head that fell to the ground.
"Damn it!"
The shepherd's head, which originally looked horrified, jumped up on its own to avoid the sword energy released by Su Anran.
After the shepherd's head jumped into the air, his ears instantly expanded and turned into a pair of wings, flapping wildly. And the originally old and ugly face actually melted and dripped like a melted candle.
, revealing a beautiful young female face.
"What is this?" Song Jue finally couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Flying Man." Su Anran said in a deep voice, "This is a monster!"
He didn't expect that he actually made an empiricist error and almost failed!
Su Anran cursed secretly in her heart.
Monsters in this world are how humans in this world are called.
Song Jue didn't know the art of drawing swords or the Tao of Yin and Yang, so naturally he didn't know the origins and identities of various demons. Su Anran already knew this when she described Shutun Tongzi before. But he didn't do this.
If I think about it carefully, I still follow the world's method of identifying monsters and make inferences, so I am not aware of one of the most important and core issues.
subjective perception.
And because of this cognitive bias, Su Anran never thought that the so-called shepherd might be a monster like Shutun.
Of course, he had to admit that this flying-headed barbarian was indeed quite cunning, actually disguising himself as a bad old man.
According to rumors, Feitouman is a soul-type monster with no specific gender, but he particularly prefers women. Therefore, he will follow the target and observe the target's behavior. When the time is right, he will bite off the opponent's head, and then transform himself into
The opponent's appearance is attached to its body to capture more prey.
Therefore, the special ability of Feitouman is to devour souls and imprison souls - this coincides with the magical abilities of the shepherd's domain [ranch] - and can even continuously change heads and bodies by fusing souls.
, after all, the dead body will decay.
Therefore, the term "head-changing monster" actually refers to the flying-headed monster.
For monsters like Feitouman, the body is naturally not a weakness.
Not to mention that the heart was destroyed, even if it was cut into pieces, or even chopped into pieces and fed to dogs, as long as Feitouman's head was not destroyed, it would not die at all.
Su Anran didn't think about monsters at all before. Of course, even if he did, he didn't actually think that much.
But now, after seeing Feitou Man, Su Anran no longer thinks so.
Among the twelve-stringed demons there is Shuten, and among the twenty-four-stringed demons there is Feitouman. These are the classic monsters in One Hundred Demons Night Walk, so does this mean that these demons in the world of demons,
In fact, they are all monsters, released by the time traveler who entered this world?
If so, did he do it intentionally or unintentionally?
"You actually recognize my true identity?" Feitou Man, who was floating in the sky, looked horrified, and his voice could not help but rise a little higher, "You two are indeed not ordinary people! You..."
"boom--"
Su Anran's grenade sword energy exploded directly behind Feitouman's head.
The violent explosion airflow completely knocked it down.
This time, Su Anran showed no mercy and split Feitouman's head into two pieces with one sword strike!
