Ye Qianming urged Zhenxie to cut the black shadow in half. The upper and lower parts of the black shadow fell to the ground. Then darkness struck, submerging both parts of the body, and the black shadow disappeared again.
Ye Qianming quickly came to the center of the formation and ordered Yuyao to take out the Spirit Release Pill and other recovery pills to treat Yujin's injuries. Ye Qianming stared at the darkness that had spread all around without any carelessness.
"The shadow of this black shadow should be where his magical power lies. He does not launch attacks in the darkness, but moves with the help of darkness, causing trouble at the intersection of light and darkness. This shows that his magical power can only be teleported and concealed by himself. If he really wants to
You still have to show your true colors when you take action.”
"And he didn't dare to take action directly but was not afraid of Cold Stone Sword and Huaguang Technique. He was still able to escape after his body was cut in two. Mostly because that body was not the original body. The real original body was the shadow on the ground!
"
"As long as that person dares to show his body and launch an attack in a light place, I can use Suppressant Evil to kill the shadow, and the dilemma will be solved naturally."
Ye Qianming thought about it carefully and said to Xiaobai who was in the center of the formation: "Xiaobai, can you still persist?"
"Ouch..." Xiao Bai wanted to answer energetically, but the big golden thunder just now consumed a lot of his spiritual power, and he was indeed a little depressed at the moment. Ye Qianming also frowned when he saw this.
In the darkness, the black shadow was hidden in the surrounding black, and the upper and lower parts of the body were put back together. Then he looked at Ye Qianming who was in the center of the formation, and said fiercely: "Damn boy, you actually destroyed my five limbs.
Ghost Banner also cut off my body!"
"I, Guiying, have hunted down so many strong men in Hexia City, how could I fall into the hands of you brats?" Guiying's face covered by black mist emitted a fierce red light, and the black people under his feet
The same is true in the shadow, just like his other pair of eyes.
The ghosts kept wandering in the darkness, hoping to find flaws in Ye Qianming and others: "This magic circle is too tricky. I can't let go without destroying it, huh? That beast can't stand it anymore?"
Guiying didn't know if this was true or if the other party was showing weakness. He didn't dare to risk his life casually, so he chose a safer method.
He took out the five ghost flags he had used before and said with some distress: "Although the five ghosts were killed by that kid, I can still recover given time. It's a pity. In order to get rid of them..."
As he said that, the ghost shadow wrapped the five ghost flags filled with evil and death energy in black shadow, turned into a figure similar to his own body, and drove over.
"Ouch!" Xiaobai, who was the eye of the formation, was the first to discover the evil black shadow, and quickly summoned the golden thunder to come down, but the golden thunder was barely able to chop down, and Xiaobai fell to his knees weakly, and the golden thunder
The power of the demon didn't appear, it just dispersed the black shadow, revealing the appearance of the Five Ghost Banners.
"It's a bait!" Ye Qianming felt awe-struck in his heart, and cut off the five ghost flags with a move to suppress evil, but he still remained vigilant.
"The black shadow used a feint to deceive the truth about Xiao Bai's weakness. Now that the formation eye cannot support it, what will he do?"
His consciousness suddenly sensed something, and Ye Qianming controlled the cold stone sword to slash to his right side, but only hit a section of his arm that was torn off. Then he heard Yuyao's call for help and turned his head.
, Yuyao's figure has disappeared, leaving only Xiaobai and Yujin, two half-conscious patients.
Suddenly, Ye Qianming's instinctive fighting reaction caused him to quickly wield the cold stone sword and slash in front of him. The ghost in the darkness collided with him head-on. A black hand tried to take out his heart, but was removed by the cold stone sword.
I fought back into the darkness with all my strength.
The ghost wanted to take away his arm when he retreated into the darkness, but the arm had already been pinned to the ground by the flying needle controlled by Ye Qianming. Instead, the ghost was slashed with a sword and hurriedly retreated into the darkness.
It became quiet.
Ye Qianming's eyes were twitching, and he thought: "This black shadow just made two feint attacks, once giving up his magic weapon, and once giving up his arm, and then captured Yu Yao, so I have to estimate Yu Jin and Xiao Bai, but
It’s really… insidious!”
At this time, ghostly laughter also came from the darkness: "Boy, as I said, your little trick is of no use to me. Now that this little beauty is in my hands, you'd better just surrender and capture her."
I won't show mercy to you!"
Ye Qianming knew that this was a critical moment for the transition between offense and defense. If he followed the ghost's intentions, he would be passive. The three of them and one fox would become the meat of the foundation-building monk's cutting board. But if he refused directly, the other party would also
He would really kill Yuyao painfully.
Ye Qianming calmed down and asked while thinking about countermeasures: "Then I don't know what the senior wants the junior to do. If the senior wants the junior to kill me directly, don't even think about it. I am not a big deal if I die obediently to save others.
saint!"
The ghost in the darkness smiled sinisterly: "Hey, selfish, you look a bit like me! Don't be afraid, your sword skills can kill evil spirits. I don't dare to let you seize the opportunity, but now the hostage is with me.
In your hand, as long as you let your beast untie the formation and hand over this three-color sword, I will spare your life!"
Ye Qianming frowned and let twelve jade needles float around Xiaobai to protect him from attacking, and then said: "Senior should have seen that my spirit beast is already dying, you can take it away directly
Life, the formation will resolve itself when the time comes, why give me a chance to do anything?"
The ghost smiled and said: "You can do anything! It's much better than me taking the risk. You kid is no less clever than me... You also reminded me that the spell to control the flying needle is also left to me, and then I can solve it."
Open the formation, hand over the sword, and I will spare your lives!"
Ye Qianming looked complicated and bargained: "Yes, but I can't give you the Cold Stone Sword directly. We can first hand over the Flying Needle spell and cancel the formation, and then you must return Yuyao, and then I will give you the Cold Stone Sword."
"Hey, why should I trust you? What if you turn your back on me after you get the person back?"
"Senior, a strong foundation builder, are you afraid that a small cultivator like me won't succeed? Besides, my senior's arm is still in my hand. You don't want to take it anymore?" Ye Qianming picked up the arm that had been nailed by a jade needle and faced the darkness.
Raised.
"...Okay, I agree. You must disarm the formation first and then hand over the spell!" Ghost Shadow seemed to have compromised and said.
"Xiao Bai, untie the magic circle." Ye Qianming said, Xiao Bai shouted weakly, and then the golden thunder square suddenly collapsed, the surrounding confinement was no longer there, and the roaring golden thunder in the sky also disappeared.
Ghost Shadow breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted: "There is also that spell, bring it over!"
Ye Qianming walked helplessly to the extremely weak Yu Jin, squatted down and said, "Brother Yu Jin, there is nothing we can do to save Yu Yao."
Yujin's eyes seemed to want to express something, but she still struggled to take out a jade pendant and handed it to Ye Qianming.
Ye Qianming took the jade pendant and threw it into the darkness, but was quickly collected by the ghost.
"Two things have been done. I would like to ask senior to return my friend."
"Hey, naturally, I'll give it back to you naturally..." The surrounding darkness gradually faded away, and the floating ghost figure who had lost an arm appeared again in front of Ye Qianming. The two black hands under his cloak held up the unconscious Yuyao, "But
I’ll give you a dead man!”
Ye Qianming immediately shouted: "Xiaobai, do it!"
Xiaobai, who was still struggling to hold on, suddenly became energetic. A large amount of spiritual power was paid out from the spiritual power bank and poured into Xiaobai's body, allowing Xiaobai to activate the Golden Thunder Square Array again. For a moment, the storm roared, the golden thunder roared, and the ghost shadow was thrown away.
His body turned pale!
"You lied to me!" The ghost shadow was furious and wanted to take the opportunity to strangle Yuyao to death, but Xiaobai hit the shadow with a golden thunder attack with all his strength. The ghost shadow was shocked and angry, but he could only avoid the lightning strike, and Ye Qianming
The flying sword has already arrived in front of you.
"Suppress evil!" A sword light flashed, cutting away all the evil energy and death energy on the ghost figure. The two black hands transformed from darkness were also cut off by a sword. The ghost figure did not dare to face the edge of the cold stone sword.
After retreating continuously, Ye Qianming took the opportunity to catch Yuyao who was thrown away and quickly flew back to the formation.
Although the face of the ghost could not be seen at this time, it made people feel extremely angry. He gritted his fangs and said: "Okay, okay, you are very good. You are the first person who dares to lie to me like this. I am a little curious."
, that formation has obviously been destroyed, why can it still be activated?!"
Ye Qianming stared at the ghost figure intently and explained enthusiastically: "Although the formation has been lifted, the formation flag has not been destroyed. It just lacks spiritual power to maintain it. I don't know if it can be reactivated with spiritual power."
?”
"Ouch!" Xiaobai on the side echoed, despising Guiying's shallowness and ignorance.
"You! You're dead! As I said, even Beixuan Academy can't save you!" The ghost shadow was furious, and then the shadows scattered again, "But I will spare your life today and sign up. I will take it one day."
Your life!"
"If you don't change your name, you won't change your surname, Li Lang!" Ye Qianming had a clear conscience and stood with his sword behind his back.
"Okay, Li Lang, my name is Guiying, and I will take your life sooner or later!"
The next moment, the shadow disappeared, and a gap was opened at the edge of the Golden Thunder Square. The ghost shadow had long since disappeared, leaving only the words just spoken echoing in the distance.
"Ouch?" Xiao Bai was surprised that his magic circle was destroyed, but Ye Qianming shook his head, "The ghost was very careful. He must have moved some hands and feet while the magic circle was untied just now, as a backup.
It's just that the second-level top magic circle is not so easy to destroy, so it can only open an opening for escape."
After Ye Qianming confirmed that the surroundings were safe, he immediately began to treat Yujin and Yuyao. The sun had already risen. By noon, Yujin had woken up, while Yuyao was awakened by the sun.
After listening to Ye Qianming's explanation, Yujin looked ashamed and saluted respectfully: "If it weren't for Qianming this time, our brothers and sisters would be in danger."
Ye Qianming smiled and waved his hand: "Since I have promised Uncle Xu, I will not ignore you, and the ghost is not that strong. If you meet a stronger foundation-building expert, don't blame me for throwing him away.
Just run."
Yujin also smiled heartily, and Yuyao asked: "Then what should we do next? It is too risky to continue. If we leave, we will not be able to complete the assessment."
Yujin looked at Ye Qianming, smiled and said to Yuyao: "It doesn't matter, just now when Qianming asked me for the Huaguang Technique, he used a flying needle to write a message in the blind spot of the ghost's perspective. What I handed over was not Huaguang.
It's a jade pendant for positioning."
Yuyao's eyes widened and she suddenly realized: "That means!..."
Yu Jin nodded: "Uncle Xu will solve that matter. I think the ghost should have been caught."
Ye Qianming clapped his hands: "In that case, then act early and leave here after collecting the materials. Don't stay any longer." The two nodded and hurriedly took action.
In another bamboo forest in the Cold Stone Mountains, an unsmiling man with white hair and beard was sitting on a rock in black clothes. The ghostly figure under his feet had his consciousness sealed, revealing a pale face with dull eyes.
, the ghost's shadow was also tightly suppressed by two jade stones, unable to move.
The man played with the jade pendant and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Young Master has grown up, and Ye Xiaoyou should also have contributed to it. The Huaguang Technique is not in vain..."
Suddenly there was thunder and wind, and an old acquaintance flew across the sky. He was the foundation-building expert who was following Liu Hui. He couldn't help but be startled when he saw Uncle Xu's figure, and finally he landed and bowed.
"Why is Fellow Daoist Xu here?"
Uncle Xu returned the greeting: "Feng Daoist fellow is here too, what happened?"
The two of them were silent for a moment, neither of them wanting to speak first. Finally, they said at the same time: "My son..."
The two of them were shocked and asked each other: "You too?"
