Chapter 5 The spoils of war
Qi Meng's moves are wide open and closed, and with the mana all over his body, combined with his naturally tempered muscles, he is not afraid of counterattacks at all.
At this moment, the big hand like a cattail leaf is reaching towards Liang Xiao. It is not difficult to see his plan. As long as he holds it, it will be impossible to break free.
However, after a trance, Qi Meng's hand was completely empty, and there was no trace of Liang Xiao in front of him.
"Where did it go?"
Qi Meng's eyes widened and he was about to look around. As soon as he turned his head, an enlarging elbow appeared in front of him. It was Liang Xiao.
He struck out with an elbow, but Qi Meng subconsciously raised his hand to block it. He only staggered, but was not seriously injured.
Just when he was about to reach out to catch Liang Xiao, he saw a dark shadow flash and he missed again!
At this moment, Liang Xiao's whole body was exuding a faint black energy, and his figure became extremely erratic. As he moved, the black energy behind him stretched into threads, like a ghost.
"Asshole, don't hide!"
Qi Meng was so angry that he trampled the stone slabs on the ground, but he still couldn't keep up with his opponent's speed.
"It's Ghost Step!"
"Hey, the introductory spells of the Little Ghost Palace - Yin Demon Claw, Corpse Iron Body, and Ghost Shadow Step are all spells that are easy to learn but difficult to master. This kid's Ghost Step is probably close to being a master!"
"Ha, fast speed does not mean strong attack power. The corpse iron body that Qi Meng cultivated, combined with his innate conditions, has surprisingly high defense power, which is exactly what restrains the Ghost Step!"
"Yes, there will inevitably be flaws in the fight. As long as that kid is caught once, it will be over!"
On the platform at the top of the mountain, a lot of people had gathered unknowingly. Liang Xiao was seen walking on ghostly steps, and his figure was really like a ghost in the daytime. No matter how crazy Qi Meng was, he couldn't take advantage.
Instead, Liang Xiao kept hitting his vital points, but this corpse iron body had amazing defense and the damage effect was not obvious.
Bang!
Another punch hit Qi Meng's temple, causing half of his face to go numb, and the scene in front of him was slightly blurred.
Qi Meng's eyes were blood red. Although he had not yet shown his appearance of defeat, he was constantly being attacked on his vital points. It was not as easy as it seemed and he was just holding on.
He firmly believes that as long as he delays for a long time, sooner or later he will find an opportunity to twist that guy Liang Xiao into a twist!
One blow, only one chance to hit!
Suddenly, Liang Xiao was not far away, with a troubled expression on his face, and stopped, breathing heavily, presumably to regain his breath.
"Huh? Is he finally tired? The opportunity has come!"
Qi Meng mustered up all his strength and pounced forward, but this time Liang Xiao actually didn't use the Ghost Step to dodge in advance, as he seemed to have exhausted his energy.
This made Qi Meng even more excited. His magic power was transmitted to his feet, and he smashed the stone slab with one kick, exploding with speed like a cannonball.
"Go down the mountain and cool off!"
At this moment, the pale Liang Xiao's face returned to normal, the corner of his mouth raised an arc, and he activated the Ghost Step and moved several feet away again!
Qi Meng cursed secretly and was about to hit a passer-by when he saw that the two passers-by were not fools and insisted on being used as meat pads for the strong man, so he hurriedly dodged away.
Then, Qi Meng's vision became clear, and what he saw was the scenery of misty peaks.
Only then did he realize that he had been lured by Liang Xiao unknowingly to the edge of the summit platform.
The inertia was too great at this moment, and I couldn't stop at all, so I rushed straight off the cliff!
"No!!!"
Listening to the long exclamation and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, Liang Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
Although he probably won't die, if there is no magic pill, he may have to lie in bed for a year and a half.
"There is also an unexpected surprise."
Liang Xiao weighed a bulging storage bag in his hand, which he just took off from Qi Meng.
"Liang Xiao, I'm going to be cruel this time, just wait for me!"
Qi Yunkai said a harsh word and was about to leave, but was stopped by Liang Xiao.
"What do you want to do?"
Qi Yunkai looked extremely ugly and began to regret not sneaking away.
The Ten Thousand Demons Cave has extremely loose management of things like fighting between disciples.
As long as no one is killed, it can be said that no one will care even if an arm or leg is broken.
Although he has some connections behind the scenes, it is not easy to use them.
The most important thing is that distant water cannot save nearby fire.
If Liang Xiao was cruel to him now, it would be troublesome!
Liang Xiao tilted his head as if he could see what Qi Yunkai was thinking, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you have been defeated in my hands, I won't interrupt your path."
"Huh," Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief happily, but on his face he refused to admit defeat and said, "You know what I'm doing, and when I break through to the middle stage of Qi training, I will spare you once!"
Liang Xiao yawned and stretched out his hand to Qi Yunkai.
This familiar action made Qi Yunkai feel uncomfortable. Is this something he often does?
"Don't spare me, let's wait until you break through the middle stage of Qi training. Now hand over your storage bag, that is my trophy!"
……
After a while, the crowd gradually dispersed.
The platform on the top of the mountain has returned to its usual calm state, and stalls are set up when necessary.
Most of the stall owners chatted among themselves, and it was quite strange to know that there are prepared disciples who have mastered the Ghost Shadow Step to perfection.
Under Liang Xiao's cold gaze, Qi Yunkai finally gave in.
He threw out the storage bag and left angrily. It must have been a big blow to him this time.
He originally thought that he was the most powerful person in Xiaogui Palace.
Who knew that Liang Xiao had hidden himself so deeply, and that this was the first time that he had revealed himself to the public as a ghostly figure approaching the realm of Dacheng.
He also completely defeated his evil claws.
It is worth mentioning that when the conflict between Liang Xiao and Qi Yunkai began, Liang Hao quietly ran away.
Probably because he was afraid that after Liang Xiao was defeated quickly, he would be entangled by two bullies again. He didn't even expect that Liang Xiao could win.
"Sure enough, in the Demon Sect, keeping a low profile is not enough. Showing your strength appropriately can avoid more troubles. This will save so many cultivation resources!"
Liang Xiao sighed, weighed the two storage bags, and threw out the debris inside.
Obtained a total of one hundred and twenty pieces of spiritual stones, spiritual ores, aged herbs, and some materials such as monster bones.
Although snatching Qi Yunkai and Qi Meng's storage bag will definitely cause some trouble later.
But what the heck, Liang Xiao is so poor now that if these two people bump into each other and come looking for trouble, it’s not something he can avoid if he wants to.
"Huh? This seems to be a method of refining some kind of magic weapon?"
Suddenly, Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows and found a brocade box from Qi Yunkai's storage bag.
After opening it, it is a simple bronze sheet.
The bronze piece seemed to have been peeled off from a certain bronze vessel.
Although the ancient charm flows, the inscribed content is not complete, but a fragment.
"It seems to be a mirror-type magic weapon. This kind of special-shaped magic weapon is generally extraordinary, but unfortunately the refining method is incomplete."
Liang Xiao thought for a while and threw it into his storage bag, just in case it came in need.
Even if you don't use it, it will be a pretty good gimmick to sell at a stall in the future.
However, there was another spiritual stone in his hand, and Liang Xiao felt that it couldn't just be left in the storage bag to get moldy.
He simply decided to spend it to contribute to his future journey of cross-world corpse refining.
"A low-grade talisman can activate the spells within it with just a trace of mana. It's a good thing!"
"There are a dozen of each of attack, protection, speed-increasing, and detoxifying talismans. Senior brother, I bought so many, so I can't give them a discount!"
After winning a set of low-grade talismans, the amused stall owner gave a dozen purification talismans as a gift.
This thing works well. After use, even a clay figure can be guaranteed to be clean.
In front of the talisman stall, Liang Xiao threw out eighty spiritual stones without blinking.
His idea is that as long as there are enough talismans, its effect will not be weaker than a protective magic weapon in a short period of time.
At this moment, several outer disciples full of evil spirits came to the platform on the top of the mountain to set up stalls.
They actually took out several large pieces of bloody meat from the storage bag, and there were large buckets filled with animal blood beside them.
The fishy smell immediately hit the nostrils, and the steam was rising, as if it had been hunted freshly.
Some people walked away in disgust, but Liang Xiao stepped forward and his eyes lit up.
The flesh and blood of monsters is rich in aura and evil spirits. If the evil spirits are not dealt with, cultivators will easily become demons after eating them. It is very suitable to feed zombies!
A monster often weighs several thousand kilograms, so its price is not unacceptable.
"This senior brother, I have a thousand kilograms of monster meat and five barrels of fresh beast blood!"
Liang Xiao thought of his future plan and told the stall owner what he wanted. Then with a wave of his hand, he spent more than thirty spiritual stones.
He needs some flesh and blood to attract zombies. Maybe these monster meats, which are rich in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, will be delicacies in the eyes of those zombies.
