"Dao...my name is Dao."
The sick man said these words in the rain, then tilted his head slightly, as if he had locked his eyes on Bai Mo and others in front of him again, and said with a sinister smile, "So let's go back to the original question..."
"You've kept me waiting for too long."
According to the rules, special beings like them who want to harvest the fruit cannot attack Yang Yiyi in advance as the fruit. They can only wait for her natural death, otherwise the effect of the fruit will be greatly reduced.
As for the extent of the discount, he didn't know.
One of the definitions of natural death is that Yang Yiyi died at the hands of ordinary people without the involvement of special beings.
Of course Dao wants to eat the most perfect fruit, so he has always abided by this rule. Not only does he abide by it himself, but he also forces others to abide by it, otherwise he will not hesitate to take action against him——
Just like the dead paper man before.
But having said that, he doesn't have that much patience to spend. Since someone is planning to speed up the ripening of the fruit, he is naturally happy to do so. He thought it would be over soon, but who knew there was such a blind guy?
Jump out to stop him.
And so far, anyone who dares to stand in front of him has died, just like those monsters in the abyss.
As the words fell, Dao waved his left hand again without hesitation and made a powerful slash.
His sword was invisible and his slashes were equally elusive, almost traceless. However, Bai Mo seemed to be able to sense the direction of his attack in advance and turned sideways again, narrowly avoiding the blow.
A strand of hair fell.
Although he could detect the attack, Bai Mo's current body was still too weak to keep up with his thoughts. He could only avoid the knife with the help of the shadow.
Dao obviously also discovered this, and said with a sinister smile: "I don't know how you saw my attack, but your health seems not to be very good."
As he spoke, he coughed twice violently, almost coughing out his lungs.
Gu Ji didn't say a word. The next second, a tentacle formed by a shadow suddenly appeared behind the knife, like a thick python, trying to wrap it up.
However, such an attack was obviously of no use to a master like Dao. He didn't even wave his hand, and the shadow behind him was cut into a black afterimage.
But in the rain curtain, these broken shadows suddenly connected into fine threads, intertwined with each other, mixed with the rain, like a tight spider web, overwhelming towards the knife, and in this
In the process, it was quickly restrained, and it was about to be restrained.
However, this still had no effect on the sword. The invisible sword energy filled the air, and the large net formed by the shadow shattered again.
He smiled disdainfully and was about to speak, but when he saw Bai Mo not far away suddenly disappearing, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"Has even the breath disappeared..."
However, he did not panic. With a wave of his hand, a circular sword energy spread out in all directions with him as the center, cutting the surrounding corpses again, but this time he also avoided Yang Yiyi and hid behind her.
of children.
With a swing of the knife, he immediately held his breath and tried to find Bai Mo's location.
But nothing was gained.
That guy seemed to have suddenly disappeared from this world.
If it were someone else, he might have suspected that Bai Mo had escaped secretly, but Dao obviously didn't think so, as he couldn't find the other party. He simply prepared himself, not only his left hand, but his entire body sank slightly so that he could escape from his body at any time.
Any part of the body can unleash sword energy.
At this moment, there was a sudden movement on the left. He swung a knife without hesitation, and a human-shaped shadow was cut off at the waist, but it was not Bai Mo's body.
At the same time, Dao was suddenly startled, feeling a sense of death completely surrounding him, so he jumped into the air without hesitation, swung his legs one after another, and fired out two invisible sword auras.
...Where he just stood, a humanoid shadow was forced back to the ground.
Only then did Dao realize that the guy was hiding underground, but his sword energy could even cut through space. Unexpectedly, he didn't hurt that guy just now...
Due to the need to take Yang Yiyi's safety into consideration, he could not swing the knife unscrupulously, otherwise he might have cut off a large piece of Wu Zhongpo. Gu Ji seemed to have caught his concern, so he started to play with him.
A game of hide and seek.
"What a despicable guy..."
Dao doesn't like this kind of guy who plays tricks in battles. He always kills anyone he sees displeased. If the problem can't be solved with one knife, he will strike a second time - this guy makes him feel disgusted.
The sky has completely darkened, and amid the rain, the entire hillside seems to have turned into a raging ocean, and here... is the soil where shadows breed.
Humanoid shadows kept appearing to attack the sword, but without exception, they were not their true form, and their strength was quite limited. And these shadows that he smashed did not disappear, but dispersed in the air, as if they were integrated with the rain.
.
"You are so inefficient."
At this moment, Dao suddenly heard a tired voice not far from the slope. An old man appeared at some point and stood beside a downed tree trunk. He sighed, "If you do this, I'm afraid I won't be able to find you tomorrow."
Don’t leave that guy.”
Seeing the old man, Yang Yiyi, who had been worried about Bai Mo, was suddenly shocked. This was another strange guy. Could he be the one who came to kill her?
The old man's complexion was very strange and looked a bit like stone. He said kindly: "That guy obviously cares about this delicious fruit. If you use her as a threat..."
Before he finished speaking, the continuous rain curtain was suddenly cut off in the middle, and it took half a second to reconnect.
And what broke next... was the old man's upper body.
Dao tilted his head slightly and said with a ferocious smile: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"Speak carefully if you have something to say, don't be so impulsive."
Suddenly, the same old man walked out of the fallen tree trunk again. He took over what he said before and said, "If you are worried about hurting the fruit, then you can change the target to those little ghosts over there. I believe you can also lure that guy out."
."
Dao sneered and swung the second knife without hesitation.
The next second, a shrill scream suddenly sounded from the side of the tree trunk, and then there was no life left.
"waste."
Dao's tone was disdainful. In a short period of time, he had found the old man's true form, easily took his life, and completely blocked his mouth.
"Compared with guys who plot and plot in battle, I hate fools like you even more who do nothing but sit back and teach others how to do things!"
Seeing this scene, everyone hiding in the dark was secretly shocked——
It seems that this guy is a complete lunatic, and has no habit of making excuses. Although everyone knows that they are all enemies competing for the fruits, I am afraid that this guy is the only one who dares to be so unabashed.
Bar……
No wonder he calls himself a knife.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
I saw that the black shadows scattered around suddenly spread and became extremely viscous, making it seem like clouds of black mist rose around, completely surrounding the figure of the knife.
He could vaguely feel that his body seemed to be subject to some kind of restriction. Not only that, but his five senses seemed to have declined a bit.
"Is it coming..."
However, faced with such a situation, instead of worrying, Dao became extremely excited.
Suddenly, a sense of danger came from behind. Dao turned around without hesitation and was about to swing the knife, but there was nothing behind him.
The next moment, the clothes on his back split and a wound appeared.
Before Dao could think about it, another premonition of danger came from his side. The alarm bell rang loudly in his heart, and he almost instinctively swung the sword energy towards his side.
However, this blow still didn't hit anything. At the same time, a wound appeared on his left shoulder.
"This is……"
As a sword wielder, Dao has always been very confident in his own intuition. However, he misjudged the enemy's direction twice in a row. This was undoubtedly a serious mistake.
Why is this happening?
At this moment, there was a sense of crisis behind the knife again, but this time he restrained his instinct to turn around and struck a knife in front of him——
The previous two wounds appeared from opposite attack directions, so he predicted that his opponent might make the same move this time.
However, he miscalculated, and this time a huge hole appeared behind him.
The expression on the knife did not change, and the wound on his back healed quickly. He was suspicious in his heart: "Strange...could it be that these mist interfered with my perception?"
But probably not.
As a top sword wielder, he bases his judgment not on pure perception, but on the instinct of the body and the knife, so he was able to easily find the old man's location just now.
To be continued...
