When he was really the only one left to face this extraterrestrial evil, Su Li said in his heart that it was impossible not to be afraid and panicked.
But what can he do?
He has become the one who has no choice but to grit his teeth and overcome all this discomfort... Now that he has made a decision, he must take up this responsibility.
It was quiet all around, except for the silent confrontation between him and the faceless 'stickman'.
He still maintained the Yue-Suppressing Talisman and the Spirit-Sealing Talisman, while the 'stickman' seemed to have given up struggling and just 'watched' Su Li quietly.
It had no eyes, but Su Li always felt that it was looking at him.
... This stalemate lasted for ten days, and his spirit was always in an absolutely tense state, for fear that the evil spirit would do something outrageous again.
This was the first time that he had maintained concentration for such a long time. He also knew that his energy would be exhausted in the long run, and this evil spirit would definitely take advantage of him.
But he was afraid!
Faced with such a weird thing, when all the seniors around him left and this unbearable weight fell on him, he realized how difficult it was.
At this time, he even began to miss Qi Lao. If he had known better, he would not have given the Lord of the Rings to Monk Wu Sheng. Otherwise, at least there would be someone to talk to him now, right?
So lonely, really lonely...
He regretted it, really regretted agreeing to this job so hastily.
If only I had refused because of my lack of ability...
When he was alone, some thoughts that he shouldn't have began to circulate in his mind, and his heart was shaken.
"Don't be afraid, don't be alone. At least you have me here with you, right?"
Suddenly, a strange and charming voice came to my ears. It still had the timbre of Xuan Su, but the charm was completely different.
Su Li woke up from his hesitation and took a look, only to see that the face of the originally faceless 'stickman' actually had human facial features!
It's just that these facial features are arranged on the "face" without any order at all, with a strong evil intention, which can make people feel even more frightened.
The messy and ugly appearance brought a greater impact to his soul. He felt that the evil spirit from outside the world had been trying to change and break through his suppression.
Under loneliness and loneliness, fear has been strengthened. Because of the special nature of his soul, these negative emotions cannot defeat him at once, but they can erode his will little by little.
In fact, to be honest, it was caused by lack of self-confidence. Su Li had never felt that a powerful enemy of this level needed him to suppress.
At this moment, all he could think about was the sect leader's three- to five-year promise...
"Just think there are still three years left, it's just three years..." Su Li told himself.
Even though I regained some composure in my heart, the feeling of loneliness still persisted.
The feeling of loneliness was still like maggots in his bones, making it difficult for him to settle down. It made him feel as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.
The demon outside was still saying something that day, and was still changing the facial features on its face. In this way, it seemed to be constantly injecting fear into Su Li, hoping that the immature guardian would collapse...
"Ouch~~"
Suddenly, a sound like a wolf howling seemed to come from the distance.
Su Li suddenly raised his head and looked around because he recognized that it was his dog barking!
He saw, on the top of the mountain in the distance, a big black spot squatting on the snow-covered mountain cliff and making a long howling sound.
Su Li, who had been holding it for ten days, suddenly couldn't hold back the liquid in his eyes. He covered his face and kept shrugging his shoulders.
"I know, you stupid dog..." he scolded softly.
But his face was full of warm smile.
He stretched out his hand and looked at the sky a little farther away, and a cluster of thousand-ray sword energy came out from his fingers.
This sword energy reached a hundred feet distance in front of the meat sausage, and then it was completely gone, and then exploded...
There is no sharp sword energy, but it turns into a blue misty rain as gorgeous as fireworks.
He seemed to be saying: Stop shouting, I have heard you.
"Ooooooo!"
The ball of meat sausage, which looked like just a black dot from a distance, immediately jumped around happily, having fun heartlessly, making Su Li worried that it would lose its footing and fall?
His mood calmed down immediately. He looked at the dog jumping happily, and there was only a slight warmth and peace in his heart.
Since the stupid dog is still there, there is no reason for him to give up at this time.
Thinking of the greed of the evil demon when he looked at the sausage, he couldn't help but hold back his breath... Want to eat my dog?! It's impossible, I will definitely kill you!!
For the first time, Su Li, who had always had a peaceful mind and kept aloof from the world, felt ruthless in his heart...
The monk's character and will can actually add considerable value to the spell.
Just like at this moment, Su Li suddenly became fierce, and the demon outside the world, who was still changing his facial appearance, was almost crushed.
It's just that this kind of life is really too tenacious. It can still persist under the double suppression of Yue Zhenyue Talisman and Spirit Sealing Talisman, and it is even slowly adapting to this pressure!
Therefore, Su Li understood that dealing with this thing would probably be a long-term matter...
So he calmed down and continued to suppress the extraterrestrial evil while watching his dog quietly, while also taking time to think about his own affairs.
It felt so good to have someone to accompany him... It felt so good to have a dog with him. It made him feel like he was no longer alone.
His true energy is still growing slowly, and even his body is being passively strengthened little by little due to the long period of extracting the energy from the earth's veins to cast spells.
At first, I was a little worried about whether this would turn him into the same thing as those refined corpses from the Thousand Corpses Sect.
But then the mellow and stable feeling in the earth's energy made him put aside those worries... Why is the evil path evil?
Isn’t it because they dislike the slow speed of the authentic method and like to take shortcuts by using crooked methods?
Although the earth-line energy extracted by Su Li was used as a spell, he was only passively nourished and never deliberately intercepted. After the spell ends, the dispersed earth-line energy will eventually return to nature.
But if the energy of the earth veins is forcibly trapped in the body... Su Li feels that those in the Underworld Sect and the Thousand Corpses Sect must have some hidden dangers that are unknown to outsiders.
I always feel like I've been being spoon-fed some things lately, and there are a lot of mundane things.
Taking this opportunity, he could also integrate the techniques and cultivation he had mastered.
He has stayed in the realm of innate fetal breath for a long enough time, and now it is time to study how to advance to the realm of innate return to truth...
As for the extraterrestrial evil in front of us?
Previously, when he saw the constantly changing organs and states on the demon's face, he felt fear growing in his heart.
But now that he was looking at it again, he found it laughable...Isn't he trying to 'code' his own face?
Confidence also arises.
The evil spirits outside the world must be at their wits end this time, otherwise why would they only use this method to interfere and influence him?
At this moment, his spiritual growth cannot be calculated...
