Chapter 22 The Dying Struggle
The sun rose and the sun set, and the morning and dusk alternated. Wu Jie chased Luo Che all the way, and chased him for three days and three nights.
During these three days, Roche tried every means to get rid of Wu Jie: he had frequently changed directions, had dived more than ten miles in the water, had tried to hide in densely populated cities, had ventured through the deep mountains where dangerous monsters were entrenched, and even had drilled into a cesspool, wanting to use the filth to cover Wu Jie's tracking spell.
However, all his actions were futile, and except for letting Wu Jie slowly narrow the distance, they could not achieve any other effect.
If the aura of the divine fire can be eliminated so easily, why can the fighting gods in the heavenly realm use this magic to kill demons and eliminate demons? How can they ensure the efficiency of arresting all kinds of demons?
They ran and chased each other. By the evening of the third day, Roche finally no longer wanted to run away.
Or, he finally couldn't run.
The cultivators who practice martial arts for hundreds of years are extremely physically powerful, and they are by no means inferior to those of the martial arts masters who have been practicing martial arts for many years. Their true qi and magic power are far greater than those of the innate cultivators... But when flying with swords for a few days and nights in one breath, both mental stamina and true qi and magic power have reached a point of nearly exhaustion.
As he flew over a small town, Roche gritted his teeth, lowered the sword light, and landed on the city wall.
At this moment, he looked extremely embarrassed, with his hair disheveled, his expression was haggard, his clothes were wrinkled, and he could even see many stains in some inconspicuous places - this was stained in the cesspool. Although he washed it in the water again, time was tight and he didn't have time to wash it.
His eyes were even more ferocity and despair. He held two flying swords tightly with both hands and stared at the sky.
If you can't escape, you can fight to the death here!
When the sharp sword light appeared in the sky, he smiled coldly and was about to send out a flying sword to fight, suddenly his heart moved and showed a fierce smile.
"Even if I die here, I have to take revenge!"
He talked to himself viciously, and then took out a black bead.
This was the spoil he and Li Ziyun got when they joined forces to kill the demon monk, called "Wan Poison Bead". Usually, it looks just an inconspicuous bead, but as long as it is activated, it can turn into infinite poisonous fog, which can cover a radius of ten miles.
Wherever the poisonous fog arrives, people and animals die, and no grass grows!
Since he got this treasure, he has only used it once, and was frightened by the tragic death of the poisoned people and never dared to use it again. Even if he is a member of the evil sect, he understands that some things cannot be done too much. If he is involved in the encirclement of the decent immortals, no matter how many treasures there are, it will be a word for death.
But today, he has no scruples!
These three days of tracking made Wu Jie very tired, and he had no extra energy to activate the hidden effect of the invisible sword. A sharp sword light cut through the sky and chased him along the red trajectory left by the breath of the divine fire.
A moment later, he saw the red trajectory landing, and also saw Luo Che standing on the city wall, holding the flying sword in one hand and the black bead in the other, smiling ferociously.
"Master, be careful! This guy must be playing tricks!"
Wu Jie nodded, did not land rashly, but just floated in the air and looked at Roche from a distance.
"Why don't you run away?" he asked.
"Can't run anymore." Roche replied straightforwardly, "If you run like this, when you catch up with me, I will lose the strength to fight back."
"Then do you think you can win me if you fight back now?"
"I can't win, but there are always other ways to think about it." Roche raised the black bead, "Guess, what is this?"
Wu Jie's eyes fell on the bead, but he couldn't tell anything about it.
"Marl, can you recognize it?"
"It should be some kind of poison, but it's uncertain what it is."
Wu Jie nodded secretly and raised his voice and asked, "What do you want to do with a poison bead? Do you commit suicide by taking poison?"
Luo Che choked for a moment, and his originally vicious and confident aura suddenly weakened by two points. Then he shouted in anger, "This is the Ten Thousand Poison Bead. Don't look at it only one, once it is activated, not to mention a human within a radius of ten miles, even an ant and a blade of grass will not survive!"
"So what? You don't think this kind of thing can stop me, do you?" Wu Jie was secretly alert in his heart, but he didn't show any expression on his face, and asked in a very disdainful manner.
Hearing his rebuttal, Roche not only did not panic or disappointed, but instead laughed. His smile was full of evil and resentment. It was more like a curse than a laugh.
"Yes, I don't think this thing can stop you. But my goal is not to stop you, but to drag the whole city to die together!" He smiled for a while and shouted wildly, "I'm going to die. Even if I can't drag you to die together, at least I have to bring people from the city to me for burial!"
Wu Jie frowned and his face darkened.
"Hahaha! Are you a headache? You have no choice! I have seen through you, the righteous people, and they say that they promote good and eliminate evil and support righteousness all day long. In the final analysis, it is not to get the support of the people or to earn that little merit!" Roche smiled proudly, and the resentment was almost like a physical entity. "This time I poisoned all the people in a whole city and committed a heinous murder. Although most of the sins are mine, if it weren't for your relentless pursuit, I wouldn't have done this - you don't want to escape the blame!"
He raised the Wanpo Poison Beads high, laughed wildly, and looked at Wu Jie disdainfully: "Come on! Come and kill me! I'll stand here waiting for you to come and kill! As long as you dare to come over, I will launch Wanpo Poison Beads! Then the whole city will be forced to death!"
Wu Jie was silent, frowned, and said nothing.
"Master, let him go, it's not worth killing this little person!" Moli hurriedly advised, "There's time to find opportunities to kill him in the future. If you work hard now, the loss will be too great!"
"But will there really be a chance in the future?" Du Ruo asked, "This time, such a good opportunity made him run away. Can you really find an opportunity to kill him in the future?"
"Even if you can't kill him in the future, you can't risk causing a murder! We immortals cannot fight against God no matter what - Master, isn't the lessons in your previous life painful enough?"
Over the years, Du Ruo has already learned a lot about the Supreme God through Jasmine. At this moment, when she heard her talk about the Supreme God's lesson, she couldn't help but feel speechless.
The Supreme God's supernatural powers were unable to withstand the consequences of causing endless murder. Wu Jie's ability was not far worse than that of the Supreme God, and where could he get involved in such a thing!
Roche has extraordinary abilities. With the current distance between them, Wu Jie could not stop him from launching the Ten Thousand Poison Beads. If he insisted on killing him, there would be only one - Roche would die, but people in the city would be buried with him.
Wu Jie can't stand this murder!
For a moment, the atmosphere became solemn. Wu Jie was in the sky and Roche was on the city wall. The two of them looked at each other coldly, as if they wanted to kill each other with their eyes.
After a few minutes - in the feeling of Jasmine and Du Ruo, it seemed as if it had been a year - Wu Jie took a deep breath, protected his body with the light of the sword, and walked from the air towards Roche.
"You... do you want to die together?"
Roche originally thought that Wu Jie was scared by him, but this time he finally escaped from the sky and was secretly proud. However, Wu Jie ignored his threat and acted as if he wanted to kill him even if he died together. He was a little panicked and shouted: "Don't come here!"
Wu Jie ignored him and still approached him step by step.
"If you surrender, I can take you back to Qingyang Mountain and find a place to keep you from your life. This is my biggest concession." He said while walking, "It is absolutely impossible for me to let you go!"
"Aren't you afraid of being accused of being a murderer?"
"Fear! But I can't let a villain who is so crazy that he uses the life of a city to serve as a shield for himself because of fear!" Wu Jie's steps were heavy, his tone was also low, but his eyes were getting brighter and brighter, especially the flames in his left eye were burning, as if they were about to break out of their body at any time, turning into a sea of fire, burning Luo Che to death.
Looking at his eyes, Roche finally became desperate.
That is the determination to kill yourself at any cost. People with this kind of look will never compromise with themselves.
He definitely doesn't want to be locked up in Qingyang Mountain for a lifetime. What's the difference between that and death? It's even better to die!
"Since you don't care about the lives of the whole city, then everyone dies together!" Roche yelled wildly, and was about to activate the Ten Thousand Poison Beads.
At this moment, he and Wu Jie felt that their bodies were bound by invisible power and could not move.
The two were frightened, but heard a gentle sigh: "Oh! The young man is so angry that he always wonders what to do if he kills the evil spirit? Stop making trouble, come to my bowl!"
Their eyes turned dark and bright, and they found that the surrounding scenery changed suddenly.
Just now, they were confronting the walls of a small city, Wu Jie was in the air and Roche was on the ground. But now, they came to a milky white lake. Oil flowers were floating in the lake, and a strong fragrance was raised. The bones of several giant beasts larger than mountains were sinking into the lake water, and the skeletons of the sequinous white bones pointed directly to the sky were carrying a little lotion.
In addition, there are several green aquatic plants as thick as houses floating in the lake. Under the lake, you can vaguely see some thick minced meat floating. There are two or three yellow floating islands in the distance, floating in the water.
Looking into the distance, you can vaguely see the blue and white cratered walls around the lake, which are connected into one piece. The walls are shiny, like jade. Looking up, you can only see a confused sky, but you can't see a farther and clearer scene.
Wu Jie and Luo Che were just stunned for a moment and came to their senses. Then Wu Jie immediately took the sword light and rushed towards Luo Che.
No matter where they are now, they are no longer in that city. Since that is the case, he certainly has to seize the opportunity to kill this vicious "Queen Bee"!
Other things can be put aside first. The most important thing in front of you is to kill evil!
