Chapter 169: The Horrifying Ruins in the Ghostly City (8000)

The flame was light green and looked very weak, like a candle that couldn't be lit, but when Xu Bai came into contact with the flame, he found that the power of the flame was extraordinary.

Xu Bai was not just protecting Chen Ting, the most important thing was that the other party wanted to kill Chen Ting, which proved that Chen Ting must be very useful.

He would certainly not let the enemy succeed in what the enemy wanted to do, otherwise he would suffer.

The most obvious feeling was heat, which seemed to come from the bottom of his heart and could burn the sky.

Following the fragments surrounding him, Xu Bai saw the fragments of the Black Blade Hundred Splits disappear in an instant.

After all, the Black Blade Hundred Splits was only made up of materials of about the fourth grade. Even with Xu Bai's black light and strong wind protection, it still couldn't withstand such a high temperature.

In just an instant, the fragments of the Black Blade Hundred Splits were gone, leaving only a handle.

"Come!"

The knife is gone, no big problem.

The green flame also weakened a lot. Xu Bai threw the hilt in his hand and let it melt in the green flame. Then he raised his hands and went straight to meet it.

When his hands came into contact with the green flame, he felt a burning sensation instantly. The black light of the Vajra Heart Demon Body shattered in the blink of an eye. The next moment, Xu Bai performed the art of flower-transfer.

A part of the sea of ​​fire rushed directly into the sky, dyeing the entire sky a pale green color. As the sea of ​​fire spread, even the dark clouds in this sky disappeared.

He felt a sharp pain in his hands. In the flames, his hands were melting.

"Donor Xu, I'll help you!"

At this time, Wuhua's voice rang out.

Waves of Buddha's light intertwined on his body, and then transitioned to Xu Bai. It can be seen that Wuhua's face was pale, and blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth. Obviously, he was forcing his potential.

"Young Master!"

Ye Zi waved her hands vigorously, dancing madly, gathering into a residual image in the air, blood oozing from her nails, but she seemed unaware that the mechanical class was playing.

The melodious music descended from the sky, wrapping Xu Bai's whole body.

"Golden Silk Gu, transform!"

Miao Xiao couldn't be idle at this moment, pointing at the golden silk Gu in his hand.

The golden silk Gu was gradually turning into golden powder all over the sky.

"Puff!"

Miao Xiao spat out blood from his throat, but gritted his teeth and persisted.

Buddha's light, music, and golden powder.

The three items gathered, and the next moment, Xu Bai felt that the true energy in his body was boiling.

His hands had already melted, but at this moment, under the urging of the true energy, the immortal body was temporarily upgraded to a huge level.

His hands gradually recovered, Xu Bai slowly raised his hands, and punched the green flame in front of him.

The clothes on his body were burned to ashes, but with this punch, the green flame suddenly dimmed and became only one-third of its original size.

Although the flames still spread all over the sky, they were scattered and did not fall again.

"Come again!"

Xu Bai roared.

The Buddhist light music surrounding him and the gold powder made of golden silk Gu gathered on his fist with the guidance of his right hand.

The fist showed colorful light and contained terrifying energy.

He didn't know how to fight, but it didn't matter. He didn't need it now.

The five fingers of his left hand opened, forming the shape of a hand knife, and chopped hard from top to bottom at the green flame in front of him.

Use your hand as a knife, five styles of Yidao!

When the hand knife came into contact with the flame, the flame could no longer hold back, turning into a sky full of green and soaring into the sky.

This complicated confrontation seemed very long, but in the moment Xu Bai jumped into the sky, he experienced various cycles of life and death.

"Huh..."

The temperature around was dropping. Although the green flames still existed, the threat had been eliminated.

Xu Bai let out a long breath and fell from the sky. Then he felt his legs weaken and almost couldn't stand.

This green flame was really strong. After all, it was made with the help of the remains of the Lihuo Altar.

The Lihuo Altar was one of the components of the Five Elements Demon Altar Formation. This was a formation that could exterminate the genius of the human race. Even if it was only one of them, even if only the remains were left, the power was extremely terrifying.

The true energy in Xu Bai's body had been exhausted, but it was recovering rapidly.

He did not retreat or move forward, just looking at the people around him.

There was a dead silence around, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Although the remnants of the Gushen Cult were surrounding them, they all kept silent after seeing the scene in front of them.

They wanted to speak, but they didn't know what to say at this moment.

What to say?

Are they still threatening?

They couldn't even deal with the Lihuo Altar, so how could they beat it?

A figure swayed, it was the leader of this group of remnants.

The leader had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were extremely complicated: "If today's battle spreads, I'm afraid no one will be able to shake the title of the best master of the younger generation, worthy of being the Blood Slaughter Swordsman."

"He resisted the Lihuo Altar, huh, amazing..."

His tone was extremely dry. Although he seemed to be telling a story, he felt bitter when he told it.

"I won." Xu Bai stared at this person and recovered frantically.

At this time, he had no clothes on his body, all of which were burned at that moment, but he did not retreat at all, because he could not let the other party see that he was a little weak at the moment.

"No, you didn't win." The leader gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know when you will seal your memory, but we agreed at the beginning that the Miao Sect's successor is here, and I also gave you the golden silk Gu. What are you waiting for!"

This sentence was not said to Xu Bai.

Xu Bai was slightly stunned. He seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head suddenly and shouted, "Stay away from Chen Ting!"

He didn't need to say that Wuhua and others were not stupid people. They returned to Xu Bai in a minute and looked at Chen Ting who was standing there.

Wuhua and others were also seriously injured. They had tried their best to support Xu Bai just now. It is difficult to fight again now.

Chen Ting was puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

The leader gritted his teeth and said: "At the beginning, you were tortured by those untouchables over and over again. You wanted to die, but I saved you."

"You said you wanted revenge, I agreed, and used the Heart-Eating Gu to seal part of your memory. Miao Zheng also gave you the Golden Silk Gu. Look at your left hand."

Chen Ting was confused and subconsciously raised her sleeves. She found that there was a golden line connecting her wrist to her arm.

"What is this?"

"I... Uh!"

She suddenly squatted on the ground with her head covered, trembling slightly, as if in great pain.

"Do it!"

Xu Bai knew that this was not the time to restore the other party's memory. Although he could not figure out the relationship, it was always right to do it now.

Relying on the little true energy he had just recovered, Xu Bai performed the fourth turn of Xingpo, came to Chen Ting with a knife in his hand, and used the five styles of Yidao.

It was about to get close to Chen Ting's head, but the next moment, Chen Ting stretched out her right hand and grabbed Xu Bai's wrist.

The huge force actually stopped Xu Bai.

Xu Bai was shocked, and he broke free with his backhand and retreated quickly.

"I remember..."

Chen Ting's body stopped shaking, and she slowly stood up from the ground. Her eyes were no longer blank, but were replaced by endless hatred.

The hatred like a surging sea of ​​blood, the resentment rising to the sky, and the green flames in the sky all trembled.

"What is going on..." Wuhua said subconsciously when he saw this scene.

Before Xu Bai could answer, Chen Ting suddenly spoke.

"All this is a trap set by me."

Chen Ting's eyes were cold, with endless hatred.

"I sealed my memory and let them secretly feed me living corpses every day. Even the last memory that was awakened covered up that tiny memory."

"The only way to use the golden silk Gu is not to use a corpse to raise the Gu, but to use a living corpse to completely absorb the golden silk Gu."

"And I am a living corpse..."

As she finished this sentence, dense corpse spots appeared on her body.

But her breath was that of a living person, not a corpse.

"The taboo of the corpse collector lineage, coupled with the boundless hatred, I actually swallowed the golden silk Gu in turn."

"This is..."

A gust of wind suddenly appeared.

In this wind, Chen Ting actually slowly took off and floated in the air.

The surrounding green flames disappeared as she waved her hand, and then Chen Ting's surroundings turned into a sea of ​​corpses and blood.

Can fly.

The sky changes.

The superposition of the two... Transcendental.

This is the real Transcendental, not the blood-haired weirdness of the half-step Transcendental realm.

"Hahaha!" The leader laughed and said, "It's done, it's finally done! My idea is indeed correct. Next, you should fulfill your promise!"

Then the leader pointed at Xu Bai and said, "Kill him, explode the remaining mark of the Monster City, and then use the Lihuo Altar to make the entire Lingyun Province fall into the Human City!"

Xu Bai has been listening beside him, and while listening, he silently recovers the true energy in his body.

He didn't say anything, he just recovered, because it would be useless to say anything now, maybe the next moment, the war will start, and it is the real truth to seize the time to recover.

And now when he heard the leader talking about the Human City, he raised his eyebrows.

Sure enough, this guy not only regarded himself as a target, but also regarded the people of the entire Lingyun Province as a target.

However, the problem now is not with the leader, but with Chen Ting.

Can the third-grade fight against the Transcendent?

Xu Bai didn't know.

He only fought with the blood-haired weirdo who was half a step into the Transcendent Realm. He won, and both sides were miserable.

But now, he had no choice.

Chen Ting raised her head and looked in the direction of the leader.

The sea of ​​blood and corpses around her body was gradually spreading. The next moment, the leader was torn into pieces and turned into part of the sea of ​​blood and corpses.

"I hate people, I hate living people." Chen Ting put her hands behind her back and said slowly: "You don't have to command me."

"The corpse collectors have such respect for the world, for people, and for corpses."

"But my end was that I was treated like an animal by those people, so I had thought it through before I cooperated with you."

"I will kill anyone I see until I am killed."

As she said this, Chen Ting's eyes slowly turned and stayed on Xu Bai.

"Including you."

"Even if you help me get revenge, you can't stop my hatred."

Xu Bai: "..."

How can this be unreasonable at all? I helped her get revenge, but she still killed me. It's too rude.

"First, let's start with these people."

Chen Ting ignored Xu Bai's eyes and waved her hand calmly. The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood suddenly rolled, like a machine devouring flesh and blood.

The sea of ​​blood and corpses surged in all directions. The remnants of the Gu God in all directions let out miserable cries. After being crushed by the sea of ​​blood and corpses, they disappeared in an instant and became part of the sea of ​​blood and corpses.

This is the Transcendent Realm. Below the Transcendent Realm, everything is an ant.

Compared with the blood-haired weirdo that Xu Bai had killed before, it is completely different from the other level. After all, the blood-haired weirdo is only half a step into the Transcendent Realm.

Xu Bai saw this scene and estimated it.

——I can't beat it.

Although he didn't want to admit it, it was a fact. Although he only had the strength of the third rank, he could beat the half-step Transcendent Realm.

But if it was the Transcendent Realm...

I really couldn't beat it.

After Chen Ting finished all this, she turned her head and looked at Xu Bai and the people behind him.

Ye Zi took two steps forward, stood in front of Xu Bai, opened his arms, glared at Chen Ting, and said: "Young Master helped you get revenge, but you actually repayed kindness with hatred. Is it reasonable for you to do this?"

Wuhua and Miao Xiao didn't say anything, but still looked at Chen Ting with angry eyes.

Even Xu Bai couldn't beat him, so of course they couldn't beat him.

Chen Ting didn't waste words, she had a monstrous hatred in her.

"I don't need anyone to help me get revenge, I will get my revenge myself."

"You haven't experienced my pain, how can you know the hatred in my heart? I just want to kill people now, kill everything I see, until I am killed."

"Forget it, let's start with you first!"

She was about to wave her hand.

At this moment, Xu Bai suddenly spoke.

"Can I ask you something?"

Chen Ting was stunned and put down her hand: "I know you want to recover as soon as possible, but that's impossible. You can't beat the Transcendent Realm."

Xu Bai touched his chin and said: "I just don't want to be an innocent ghost. How about you tell me the whole story for my revenge?"

Chen Ting was silent for a second and nodded: "You already know the whole story very well. I have also told you my situation. What else do you want to know?"

Xu Bai pointed at himself and said: "It's very simple. For example, what mark do I have on my body?"

Chen Ting said: "You have been to the Monster City before and were able to come out alive, but you have been stained with the mark of the Monster City. Of course, it will disappear with the passage of time."

"Then how do you plan to activate the mark?" Xu Bai asked again.

Chen Ting continued: "As long as you are killed, the mark will appear, and then use the Lihuo Altar to activate it. Kill half of the people in Lingyunzhou and you can drag them into Rengui City."

"They are planning to use the Lihuo Altar method. After all, it was successful at that time. The only difference is that since the dead are people, they will enter Rengui City."

"In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are killed or not. The main thing is that after killing you, there won't be too many troubles. After all, you won't resist anymore."

Xu Bai hummed and didn't speak.

Although he didn't speak, his mind was running fast.

Killing himself is actually to stop resisting. This mark of his can activate Rengui City through the Lihuo Altar.

And the activation condition is as Xu Bai thought, it is a sacrifice.

But the sacrifice here is the people of Lingyunzhou.

The number is so large that it is enough to drag the entire Lingyunzhou into the water.

Xu Bai raised his head and looked at Chen Ting in the sky. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind.

Can you fight?

This is definitely not a win.

He was also one of the few people that Xu Bai couldn't beat since he entered the industry.

But being unable to beat someone didn't mean he had to surrender. He didn't know if this idea in his mind would work, but he could give it a try.

Seeing that Xu Bai didn't ask any more questions, Chen Ting was ready to raise her hand and kill Xu Bai.

Kill.

Must kill.

Ever since she was insulted by those people, she had endless hatred in her heart, and there was no so-called forgiveness.

After she killed Xu Bai, she would aimlessly look for someone to kill until she was killed by someone else, and that would be the beginning of liberation.

Only in this way could she relieve the hatred in her heart.

Just when Chen Ting was about to kill Xu Bai, the next moment, she found Xu Bai's figure flashing, and in the blink of an eye, he came to her.

"I know you won't surrender, but you will never know that the saying that everyone below the Transcendent Realm is an ant is the truth of the world."

Chen Ting sighed.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood poured in, blocking Xu Bai layer by layer.

But the next moment, Xu Bai's actions were very decisive. With a twist of his force, his legs separated directly and fell on Chen Ting.

This ruthless action made even Chen Ting stunned.

Cutting off his legs alive, is this man so cruel to himself?

It was at this moment of stunned that Chen Ting was hugged by Xu Bai and fell to the ground from a high altitude with a bang.

"Don't worry, stay away from me!" Xu Bai roared.

The remaining true energy in his body was running wildly, and the way of running was...

Water Adaptation Method!

This is a skill obtained from the Water Dividing Altar, which allows him to perform normally underwater.

When the Water-Adapting Technique was in operation, the remnants of the Gu God Cult that had been killed by Chen Ting before turned into blood and flesh power, which kept gathering here.

"You are crazy!" Chen Ting was stunned, and quickly reacted and wanted to struggle, but Xu Bai held her tightly.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood attacked Xu Bai, and he was injured to pieces, but Xu Bai did not stop.

Xu Bai raised his head, raised the corners of his mouth, and showed a crazy smile: "I am a fucking blood-slaughtering swordsman. Who can beat me in madness?"

He guessed right and bet right.

He had inquired before that the method used by the Gu God Cult was the method of Lihuotan, and Lihuotan and Dividing Water Altar belonged to the same source, so the method of Dividing Water Altar could also be applied.

As expected, it was indeed applicable.

He had the mark, the Water-Adapting Technique, and the power of flesh and blood.

Although there are not many of them, these remnants of the Gu God Cult are all people in the industry. Their flesh and blood strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people, which is enough to take him and the woman in.

A huge hole appeared in the sky, and a strong suction came, ready to suck Xu Bai in.

This hole looks extremely terrifying, with figures shaking inside.

Each figure reveals weirdness and vicissitudes, as if it came from a distant era, watching the world with greedy and evil eyes.

This is the Human Ghost City.

"Let me go, you lunatic!"

Chen Ting struggled frantically, leaving scars on Xu Bai's body, but it was useless.

Even... with the blessing of Xu Bai's immortal body, the legs that were just broken recovered.

She was held by Xu Bai, and in an instant, she was sucked into the huge hole.

The deep hole slowly closed, leaving Xu Bai's words.

"The Human Ghost City can't do anything to me, just like the Monster Ghost City. You don't have to worry."

This sentence echoed in the air, and everything returned to calm. Except for the mess on the ground, it was as if nothing had happened.

Ye Zi sat on the ground, staring at the sky blankly. The hole was gone, but she just looked up, staring blankly.

Young Master... was taken to that strange space again.

She suddenly felt that she was useless and hit her head in frustration.

If she could be stronger, maybe it wouldn't be the result today.

Ye Zi buried her head in her knees, her face was dull.

Wu Hua had blood on the corner of his mouth, and he smiled bitterly at this scene.

He sighed and silently recited the Buddhist scriptures, but his heart was miserable.

Just now, Xu Bai's actions touched his heart and made him sad.

As for his relationship with Xu Bai, Wu Hua must have a deep relationship, but now Xu Bai was taken to the Human Ghost City.

What kind of place is Rengui City? Maybe ordinary people in the industry don't know, but he, a direct disciple, knows a thing or two.

Miao Xiao didn't know, but she knew that her idol seemed to have gone to a particularly dangerous place.

Next to him, the fourth-grade puppet instantly lost control and fell to the ground.

Time passed, and no one spoke.

A sad mood enveloped and was gradually spreading.

At this time, Ye Zi suddenly stood up, wiped the tears on his face, carried the fourth-grade puppet, and picked up the package left by Xu Bai.

"Let's go."

Wuhua and Miao Xiao looked at Ye Zi and smiled bitterly.

Ye Zi took a deep breath and said, "I believe that the young master is fine. He was able to walk out of the Demon City last time, and it is the same this time. The young master is a miracle. I believe in him. We just need to go back now, clean up the mess behind, and wait in Lingyunzhou."

With Ye Zi speaking, Wuhua and the others calmed down a little.

But Ye Zi hadn't finished speaking. What she thought was that if he didn't come back for a long time, she would follow the young master.

The surroundings were like ruins, so they did not stay any longer and headed towards Lingyunzhou.

Ye Zi kept clenching his fists tightly, as if he had a plan.

After everyone left, the canyon returned to silence again, everything was back to normal, and as time passed, all the debris on the ground would be wiped out.

…

On the other side.

Xu Bai held Chen Ting, and after being sucked into the big hole, he felt cold all over and his eyes were dark.

There were many afterimages around him, watching him, shaking constantly, with terrifying power and crazy breath.

The afterimages were curious and greedy at the same time, greedy for everything in front of them.

In a blink of an eye, everything was rapidly retreating, even those afterimages gradually disappeared, and Xu Bai fell on a black mud with a bang.

As soon as he fell, a piercing scream came from his side.

"Ah!"

Chen Ting held her head and rolled on the ground, as if something was gnawing at her soul.

The surrounding mountains of corpses and seas of blood gradually faded, and the next moment, Chen Ting let go of her hand and lay with empty eyes.

No one can resist this rule. Even those who are in the Transcendent Realm can only become idiots.

Xu Bai stood up panting. Just as he was about to speak, the severe pain had already attacked his soul in an instant.

"Fuck, it's coming again!"

He squatted down decisively, holding his head with both hands, making painful sounds and shaking violently.

This is not to say that he doesn't have the foundation of a tough guy, nor is it to say that he is not tough, but this kind of pain in the soul is really not something that ordinary people can resist.

"Xiao Jin, it depends on you."

Xu Bai rolled his eyes and fainted decisively.

He has a golden finger but doesn't use it. It's a fool's behavior.

The next moment.

The terrifying golden light rose from him and went straight into the sky, with an unstoppable trend, sweeping away the blood-red color around him.

In the golden light, there was a strong momentum rushing towards him, sacred and solemn, making it impossible for people to resist.

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a moment, and the golden light soon disappeared.

Xu Bai slowly opened his eyes, woke up from his coma, and rubbed his head.

"Sure enough, Xiao Jin is still reliable."

This is his method. Nothing happened after entering the Yaogui City last time, and it was the same this time.

Next to him, Chen Ting lay there with empty eyes, staring at the blood-red sky.

Xu Bai moved his body, walked forward, and pressed Chen Ting's forehead.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound rang out, and Chen Ting lost her breath and turned into a corpse.

"Well... I have to get out as soon as possible this time." Xu Bai turned around and looked at the surrounding environment.

The surroundings were still blood-red, and the ground under his feet was charred black, which looked very similar to the Yaogui City, but he knew that the place he was in was the Rengui City.

However, the difference from the last time was that this time he was not in the city, but in a wilderness.

"This is a bit complicated." Xu Bai touched his chin and thought secretly.

After his previous experience in the Monster City, he had understood that no matter it was the Monster City or the Human City, there was nothing here except disgust and murder for the living.

No routine, nothing else, just live killing.

The weirdness here has consciousness, but it also hates people.

This is an extremely dangerous place. Xu Bai felt that he could not stay for long and must find a way to leave.

"Last time, I left through that strange formation, and this time it should be the same." Xu Bai thought to himself.

Thinking of this, he slowly raised his right hand.

The true energy was running in his body, and then a golden compass appeared in the air.

—— Feng Shui Calculation.

I don't know where I am, and I don't know what to do next, so what should I do next?

It's very simple, just calculate a hexagram.

As Xu Bai used this skill, the golden compass began to emit a faint light, and the pointer on it rotated wildly, and then the pointer slowly stopped and pointed in a direction.

"Hmm... this location." Xu Bai touched his chin and thought to himself, "Let's go check it out first."

He looked around and found that he was completely naked. There was nothing he could do, after all, it was all burned by the fire.

"I have good capital." Xu Bai said with a smile.

The more dangerous the place, the more you should maintain a positive attitude. After joking to himself, Xu Bai walked in the direction indicated by the pointer.

...

The Human Ghost City and the Monster Ghost City don't look much different. The ground under your feet is still charred black, oozing a little blood, and the surroundings are all blood-red.

Even the sky above your head is blood-red, which looks chilling.

Xu Bai stepped on the soft ground and kept moving in that direction.

Along the way, his speed was not fast, but every step was cautious.

This place is different from the Great Chu State. It is weird and dangerous everywhere.

Although Xu Bai didn't encounter any weirdness when he walked here, it was normal not to see weirdness in the wilderness.

But you have to be careful, just in case someone suddenly pops out, so you can deal with it.

After walking in this direction for about an hour, Xu Bai stopped and looked at the things in front of him, frowning tightly.

Not far ahead, there is a ruin.

It is called a ruin, but it should be a city wall, but this city wall is much more desolate than the Yaogui City where he was before.

The city wall is in ruins, and most of the plaques on it have fallen off. The handwriting is blurred and unrecognizable.

There are many dried blood stains on the city wall, which are dark brown.

The city gate is open, or to be more precise, there is no city gate. From the outside, it is a deserted street inside.

The houses on both sides are dilapidated, and even the roofs are broken tiles.

Although there is a golden compass to guide you, you can't rush into this ghost place.

He wandered outside for a while, and after making sure that there was nothing unusual, he walked carefully towards the city gate.

The closer you get to this ruined city, the more bloody smell you smell.

Having been in this line of work for a long time, Xu Bai was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. He stopped outside the city gate and looked inside.

It was still quiet inside. Not to mention weird, there was not even a shadow.

After thinking for a while, Xu Bai raised his foot and walked inside.

He thought there would be something unusual, but it didn't happen. After Xu Bai walked a long way, nothing suddenly appeared until he entered the city.

The golden compass was suspended in the air, and the pointer was still pointing to a direction, meaning that he should walk towards this position.

As Xu Bai walked, he looked around vigilantly.

The surroundings were in ruins. He was far away before and didn't see clearly. After he got closer, he saw that these broken marks were newly left.

"It seems that someone is fighting here, and the city is completely destroyed, so it is a ruin." Xu Bai said secretly.

He was very alert and continued to walk forward.

After walking for about half an hour, the front finally opened up.

A huge open space appeared in front of him, and in the middle of the open space was a round platform.

Xu Bai was familiar with this round platform. He had left through this platform before when he was in Yaogui City.

He only needed to inject his true energy into it to leave, but he needed one more thing, the city lord's sign.

This place was deserted, where could he find the city lord's sign?

Xu Bai fell into deep thought.

It was quite difficult to find a sign in a city. He thought about it and decided to use Feng Shui to try it.

"Try it. The sooner we leave, the better."

Thinking of this, Xu Bai decided to give it a try.

But just as he was about to start, something unusual finally happened.
