Ling Xiao's brows were furrowed, and his face showed an unprecedented serious look. He could feel that the spiritual power in his body was being gradually eroded and suppressed by this strange force.
"Hahahaha, boy, this is what you will get for despising Huangquan Bulao Mountain!" Upon seeing this, the second guardian couldn't help laughing loudly. His laughter was full of pride and ridicule.
"You should understand now, right? The horror of Huangquan Bulao Mountain is far beyond your imagination. You, an ignorant junior, dare to come here and run wild, you are really asking for your own death!"
As the laughter of the Second Protector echoed throughout the valley, the death army seemed to be inspired by something, and they launched a fierce attack on Ling Xiao even more crazily.
"Do you want to take action now?" The low and powerful voice of the Demon Soul King echoed in Ling Xiao's mind, like the ringing of an ancient bell, with a hint of concern and unquestionable majesty. Ling Xiao turned his head slightly, as if
While talking to the invisible existence, his eyes shone with wisdom and calmness.
"Don't be anxious, just wait." Ling Xiao shook his head gently, his tone revealing a calm and unhurried confidence. He knew that although his current situation was dangerous, it was far from despair.
What's more, he has an unknown trump card in his heart - that one extra life than others is his greatest support and the source of his courage to face all challenges.
"I'm fine." Ling Xiao emphasized again, with an indifferent smile on his lips. That smile contained both an affirmation of his own strength and an indifference to unknown challenges. He knew very well that a truly strong person is not only
It lies in having strong strength, but also in being calm and firm when facing difficulties.
"Okay, now that you have a plan, I won't say anything more." Demonic Soul King's voice was a little more approving and reassuring, "You decide for yourself. If I really need to take action, I only need one thought.
I will definitely help you with all my strength."
When Ling Xiao heard this, a warm current surged in his heart. He nodded gratefully, and energy surged around his body, directly releasing the Great Luotian Demonic Shadow.
They were figures condensed from pure demonic energy. They were tall and mighty, surrounded by black demonic flames, which seemed to be able to swallow up all light and life. They were like loyal guardians, tightly surrounding Lingxiao, providing protection for Lingxiao.
He resisted attacks from all directions.
Ling Xiao fought side by side with Daluo Tianmoying, and had a fierce confrontation with the surging army of death. His sword was like a dragon, and every time he swung the sword, it was accompanied by a deafening roar, killing the death monsters one by one.
However, he also knows that it is difficult to sustain it for a long time with his own strength. His goal is to delay time and wait for the mountain protection formation of Huangquan Eternal Mountain to completely release its power. By then, there will naturally be a turning point.
In the distance, the huge white-bone giant is still struggling to resist the fierce offensive of the four guardians. Its figure is elongated in the sun, looking tragic and helpless. Every collision of bones and weapons is accompanied by a deafening roar, echoing
Throughout the valley, it revealed its exhaustion and struggle that were close to the limit.
The cracks on the surface of the white-bone giant are gradually increasing, as if it is the embodiment of the inner anxiety and worry of its owner, Ling Xiao. After all, this thing is just a puppet temporarily controlled by Ling Xiao. Although it is strong, it will not last long and will be defeated.
The shadow is approaching quietly.
"Boy, now that things have happened, what else do you have to say?" A cruel smile appeared on the corner of the second protector's mouth, and his eyes were full of expectations for victory and contempt for Ling Xiao. There was a kind of aura in his words.
His unquestionable confidence seemed to have foreseen Ling Xiao's defeat.
When Ling Xiao heard this, an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In that smile, there was both an open-mindedness about life and death and a desire for the unknown truth.
"Looking at you like this, it seems that you have determined my fate." He shook his head slightly and looked directly at the second protector, with an unyielding light shining in his eyes. "However, before I reach the end of my life, I still have something to do.
I want to ask a question clearly. Why do you go to such lengths to capture Pearl? What value does she have to you?"
When the Second Protector heard this, the smile on his face became even bigger, as if Ling Xiao's problem was just an insignificant episode to him.
"Haha, since you're so curious, it's okay to tell you." He took some time to adjust his sleeves, with a bit of pride in his tone.
"Our talented young master Wuxu has endless desire to improve his strength. And the soul of the genius is the key for him to break through the bottleneck and make further progress. Zhu'er is his next target. As for her relationship with you
All the things in the world are nothing more than trivial matters to us."
Having said this, a coldness flashed across the eyes of the Second Protector, as if to remind Ling Xiao that what they are pursuing is power that transcends all emotions and morality, and any bond between Ling Xiao and Zhu Er cannot be changed.
Pearl's fate.
Ling Xiao's eyes seemed to have turned into a deep cold pool at that moment, and the murderous intent flickering in them was as heart-stopping as its substance.
He gritted his teeth, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "Let me ask you, Pearl - is she still alive? How is she now?" As he spoke, his voice was low and trembling.
, revealing his deep concern and uncontrollable anger for Pearl's safety.
When the Second Protector saw this, a sly smile appeared on his lips, as if he was enjoying Ling Xiao's anxiety and despair.
He deliberately prolonged his voice and hesitated to speak, as if he was admiring the fight between a trapped beast. "I almost got entangled in it by you kid," he chuckled, his eyes full of disdain and coldness.
"As for her, if you really want to know whether she is alive or dead, you'd better save your strength and wait until you get out alive to see. But, having said that, I guess you may not be that lucky."
Before he finished speaking, the expression of the Second Protector suddenly changed, and an indescribable sense of urgency surged into his heart. He saw that even though Ling Xiao was in a desperate situation, he could still deal with the army of death with his amazing willpower, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
This power far exceeded his expectations, forcing him to re-examine the opponent in front of him.
"We can't delay it any longer," the second protector thought to himself, with a flash of determination in his eyes, "This kid must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous." Thinking of this, he waved his hand suddenly and shouted loudly: "Underworld Immortality Formation
, turn it on with all your strength, 100% of the power, kill him for me!"
Following his order, the entire valley seemed to tremble. The already dense army of death became more violent, and the surrounding Huangquan Immortal Formation also began to exude a stronger aura of death, with waves of black
The energy surged towards Ling Xiao like a tide, vowing to swallow him completely.
