Chapter 5 Secrets Chapter 61 Repaying the Body with His Way (Part 1)
Duan Jin screamed in shock and finally reacted.
But she also forgot that she was not immediately sucked in when facing the soul-retaining banner that had absolute power for the soul body. Instead, she floated in the air like a red kite under the light talisman, resisting and struggling to be retracted.
She thought Ruan Zhan was the young boy with a little supernatural power many years ago. Unexpectedly, in just ten years, he became so powerful that it was beyond her expectations, and immediately felt a little panicked.
"If you arrest me into the banner, your formation will be broken!" she screamed.
"That's my business!" Ruan Zhan was still tough, endured the pain in his body, and added a little more strength to the banner.
He didn't want to do this. After all, Duan Jin was invited to help, and at the moment he sacrificed the broken ribbon, he himself didn't know whether he could control Duan Jin with his current ability. Besides, subduing her means breaking the formation, so the roundup operation he had carefully planned would fail and even pay a greater price. However, Duan Jin refused to help, forcing him to do so.
This time, Duan Jin almost screamed, and her whole body was pulled into a long one, like a twisted rag, but she still stubbornly refused to admit defeat and barely supported her.
And behind him, the sound of water shows that Guan Zheng is about to reach the shore!
"You promised to cooperate with all parties to trap that bastard in the formation." Ruan Zhan said loudly, feeling anxious and about to catch fire, but his voice was still calm as usual, "The life gate is broken, and this formation will be destroyed. What else do you, a traitor, stay here for you!"
"I don't! I'm not! I'm guarding the formation and didn't leave! Ah--" Duan Jin screamed again, almost being pulled out of the Western position where she guarded.
"Thumbs up!" Ruan Zhan said, risking his blood vomiting and continuing to increase his strength. "You have been practicing for nothing in the past ten years. If you let him go, you will harm more people. You are guilty and even if you practice for another hundred years, you will not be able to wash away your mind. Don't want to pray for those who die in vain, nor do you have to intend to gather spirits for your son!"
He said this too harshly, and he was stabbing Duan Jin's sore spot!
She has been practicing hard to redeem her sins and reunite her child's scattered spiritual energy, even if there is only a half of an unformed soul. For this reason, she has been practicing hard for thousands of years, but now she has blocked the only way to liberation for a little obsession with hatred? As soon as she hesitated, her strength was loose, and she could no longer defend her position in the west, and was sucked to a few meters away from the broken banner. The red corner of the gorgeous shroud had touched the metal banner.
At the same time, the air in the four square array began to flow abnormally against the opposite direction, causing the black fog to roll up horizontally. This means that due to Duan Jin's position, the four square array was about to be broken.
Ruan Zhan gritted his teeth and persevered.
At this moment, he was not only fighting for strength, but also fighting for psychology. He clearly heard the sound of water behind him stop, and knew that Guan Zheng was judging whether to not try to attack Wanli and Xiaoxia in the east, but to preserve his strength, and wait until the shaky formation collapsed and then leave swayingly; while Duan Jin was hesitating and struggling, swaying left and right between obedience and resistance, revenge and liberation.
It's like two high-speed cars driving on the narrow road. None of them is willing to give way. It depends on who will not retreat in the face of both sides' losses and dare to maintain this speed and hit it head-on!
A few seconds took as long as a few hours! Finally, at the moment of the collision, Ruan Zhan won!
The moment Duan Jin was about to be sucked into the broken ribbon, he made a seal and cast the power of his sun's eyes. A very thin but extremely bright light suddenly penetrated the thick darkness, pointing straight to the sky, as sharp and ruthless as a dagger, causing the black fog to break out a very long and deep wound!
Seeing this scene, Ruan Zhan did not neglect anymore. He waved his hand to retract the broken ribbed banner, and quickly sacrificed a light talisman to the light column that pointed straight to the sky. When the bright talisman that could only illuminate a small range touched the sunlight rays emitted by the sun's eyes, it immediately emitted countless times of light, spreading outward in a fan shape along the light column, making the entire four-meter array bright like day in the blink of an eye! Duan Jin got rid of the restraint of the broken ribbed banner and immediately returned to the position he was guarding, and the four-meter array returned to its original state at the edge of breaking.
Ruan Zhan looked to Zhengdong and saw that Guan Zheng had already climbed to the other side of the pool, and raised the black wooden stick to Xiao Xia, who had not yet adapted to the sudden light. He immediately drew a talisman in the void and pointed it hard at Guan Zheng's feet. As a blue spark exploded on the land under Guan Zheng's feet, his blow had not yet fallen on Xiao Xia's head, and his whole body was bounced up, and he screamed and fell into the water again!
All this was done in a flash. As long as you were half a second later, the situation would be completely opposite. It was a critical moment. Although it temporarily blocked Guan Zheng's first wave of attacks, it was extremely thrilling, which shocked Ruan Zhan in a cold sweat.
"Thank you." He said sincerely to Duan Jin.
Duan Jin snorted coldly. The mask on his face was still there, covering the face and expression that was temporarily missing one eye.
"What are you doing? Hit the dog underwater!" Wanli said loudly.
Guan Zheng got up from the water, angry and hated. Why is his strength obviously stronger than Ruan Zhan, and why did he seize the opportunity but was always reversed at the last moment? What is the problem? Where exactly is the problem?
He stood in the water with a black wooden stick in his hand, keeping motionless, fearing that he would attack if he moved. He had never practiced the **, and there were those two sleeves that could make him go on a swaying journey, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came up tonight, Ruan Zhan broke his treasure in the Octagonal Tower, forcing him to never be able to turn over.
This formation is a defensive formation that cannot be attacked in combination. When he was in the Octagonal Tower, he did not feel anything special, but when he was in the center of the formation, he realized that this formation was not only trapping him. Because the longer he stayed in the formation, the clearer he felt the whole body heated, but the heat did not radiate to the top of his head, but rushed to the soles of his feet, and then went straight into the ground and disappeared without a trace, making people feel that the power in his body would be lost bit by bit.
The formation in the Octagonal Tower is a pseudo-former, just to consume his strength and destroy his treasures. This formation activated by the formal talisman is truly powerful! Ruan Zhan fundamentally adopted the strategy of "dividing and eating", and he only now understands this!
Although the other party is not able to see the sunshine in the west and north sides of the formation, and it seems that the formation cannot be set up for too long, he understands that he will not be able to stand up to the sunrise at dawn, and even if he will not be sucked by the formation air at that time, he will do his best to slaughter people.
The reason why Ruan Zhan didn't take action first was that he had to wait for him to attack first, and then attack others later, waiting for his leisure! After all, only he and the female ghost Duan Jin had the strength to attack him in this formation, and the other two sides were just defensive decorations!
In this case, he must find a way to get out of the situation as soon as possible, because every minute he is delayed, his strength is weaker. In terms of wisdom and strength, he knows that he is not Ruan Zhan's opponent, and he relies on his strength. When his strength becomes weak, he will be defeated miserably!
Thinking of this, he put his heart in a way and used his last move. He pulled open his clothes with his left hand, and drew an oblique fork on his chest with a black wooden stick with his right hand, and howled loudly in his mouth.
The front end of the black wooden stick looked very dull, but after a stroke, Guan Zheng's chest was immediately bursting with flesh and blood, as if he was almost broken by his intestines and belly. Even the pool water around him was quickly dyed red.
And his screams were so terrifying that at first he would think it was the crazy cry from the beast trapped in the trap in the dense forest. With this cry, his eyes began to change, from normal human eyes to a pair of white-light eyeballs, like two silver balls.
Ruan Zhan immediately remembered what the village chief said, when Guan Jing killed more than 20 villagers one night, and understood that he was going to fight for trapped beasts. Although he did not make detailed preparations in advance this time, his power cannot be underestimated when he was already taking all his bets.
Guan Zheng carefully took out a piece of paper from the inner bag of his clothes, rubbed it on his bloody chest, and then threw it out. It was just a light piece of paper, but when he threw it, he flew over half of the pool like an arrow from the string. The moment he landed, it turned into a black shadow and rushed out quickly!
Black cat!
The black cat that Abaiyajin mentioned that had appeared many times can be replaced by Guan Zheng with a paper-cut cat! What kind of witchcraft is he practicing? It is simply equivalent to a magic trick!
But when the black cat ran towards Awu at the speed of the wind, he cleverly twisted his body and rushed towards Duan Jin. When he was about to reach her side, he left and came to Ruan Zhan.
As they were close, Ruan Zhan saw clearly that the black cat was not running around. He was dragging a thin line behind it, because it was transparent and it was extremely difficult to detect. The thin line was weak but never easy to be discovered. It had a very light red color, dragged from the pool to this place, as if using it to pull a fence. When you look closely, it turned out to be a water vapor mixed with the blood in the pool!
The black cat flashed like lightning, ran towards Wanli again, and circled around the four square formation with the faint hookah, and finally handed over the "line" to Guan Zheng!
Guan Zheng held one end of the hookah, his lips moved, and at the same time he recycled the invisible rope. Ruan Zhan felt a little confused and he couldn't help but lift his foot, but before he could take this step, he became clever and immediately withdrew his foot.
No, Guan was using the paper black cat and the hookah it brought with him with his own blood to hypnotize the people who were guarding the formation!
His hypnosis technique was too evil and too high-end. He could have affected people far away with sufficient preparations. At an extremely fast speed, he unknowingly followed his command and jumped into the cliff. Today, he was unable to make those complicated preparations in a hurry, but he used his own blood to guide him, which almost made Ruan Zhan get hooked.
Looking at other directions, each defender was hit by Guan Zheng's move. Awu's feet were desperately moving forward, but his hands were holding a small tree beside him, just like a person splitting into two, one side was about to leave, and the other side wanted to stay; Duan Jin was a soul body, and had strong spiritual power. Although he was not immediately affected, he moved in his position hesitantly, and obviously he could not be sure whether to walk or stay; Wanli was most affected, and his expression was completely dull, and he walked forward step by step, one foot had already stepped into the water, while Xiao Xia pulled him desperately behind him!
Perhaps it was because of the hasty action, or perhaps it was because Guan Zheng's skill was damaged, and there were only one person in each direction of the four square array, and there were two people in the east, so Xiaoxia was spared.
Although she did not have Ruan Zhan’s knowledge, she also understood what was going on, so she tried hard to wake Wanli up, but Wanli’s physical strength was far better than her. Not only did she fail to stop him, she was dragged to slide into the pool!
In desperation, she couldn't care about anything and bit Wanli's arm exposed. She used so much force that it made Wanli's arm bleed continuously.
Wanli felt a severe pain in his arms in the haze, and the stimulation directly activated his consciousness. He instinctively swung Xiaoxia and pushed Xiaoxia down by the pool. When he woke up, he saw Xiaoxia get up from the ground, his whole head was wet and coughing continuously. He obviously fell face down into the water and slapped the water.
"I did it?" He hurriedly helped her.
Xiao Xia couldn't speak at all, her face turned pale, she grabbed Wanli's arm tightly and looked at Ruan Zhan.
Wanli also looked over and said loudly, "It's safe here, be careful of other things!"
Ruan Zhan saw that they were fine from afar, so he felt relieved. As soon as he reached out, he felt a thunder in his palm, and as the blue electric spark hit Awu and Duan Jin's feet, the two sides suddenly woke up.
"What tricks do you have?" he said proudly.
Guan Zheng didn't say anything, but made a pose to the black cat. The black cat was instructed to stand up and start running with the hookah again. This time it was incredibly fast, and before it could see its black figure clearly, it had already run to the next position.
"I see how many thunders in the palm of your hand you can hit!" Guan Zheng sneered.
He knew that hypnosis could not break this array because Ruan Zhan would definitely find a way to alert their people. However, there was some water vapor in the pool, and it didn't matter if he used his ability to control the black cat to run overnight. However, Ruan Zhan's constant thunder in the palm was very consuming his own strength. He just saw that Ruan Zhan's physical strength was almost at its limit, so he did this. Didn't Ruan Zhan want to consume his strength? He wanted to return it to his body with his own way!
Unexpectedly, Ruan Zhan did not do what he expected. Although he hit a few thunder in his palm, he did not hit Awu and Duan Jin who were hypnotized again, but instead targeted the black cat. After all, Guan Zheng was going to rely on the black cat to perform his hypnosis technique. It is better to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot than to treat the head when the head is hurt and to treat the foot pain!
Seeing this, Guan Zheng quickly held one end of the waterline with one hand and controlled the black cat with the other. The black cat was already flexible, and under his control, it was even more slippery and unstoppable. He saw that he was about to hit him several times, but he twisted it and ran away.
After a few rounds, Ruan Zhan felt a little difficult. His physical strength was already at its limit and he was injured. Now he only had tenacious will support him. It was okay if there was a gap between the moves. This continuous casting made him unable to breathe.
"How stupid! You can't burn it with talismans, it won't save much effort!" Wanli's voice came from the side, "This dead cat is just a piece of paper!"
It turned out that Xiao Xia bit his mouth so hard that it was too harsh. The thorny, painful and hot feeling made him always keep awake, without a second attack.
Chapter completed!
