Volume 16: Life is a Mirror Chapter 78 Using the Sword as an Arrow
Approaching the boundary of Purgatory Mountain, Lin Xi remained silent as she looked at the smoky volcanoes in front of her.
There are countless active and extinct volcanoes, and many temples are built among them. This is definitely a strange scenery that was not seen in his previous world.
It's just that his eyesight is extremely amazing now, so just in the border area of Purgatory Mountain, from such a long distance, he can already see clearly many countless slaves with almost ** bodies, crawling on the mountain road like ants, going in and out. In the mines and workshops, they were driven and beaten with iron chains by some red-robed priests to work.
The number of red-robed priests in Purgatory Mountain was already very small, but there were so many slaves, so much that even his hands trembled slightly.
Just during the few breaths of time he was silent, he saw that at least in several places on different mountain paths, slaves fell down unable to hold on, unable to stand up, and then they were caught by the iron chains of the red-robed priests. Randomly throw them into lava fire pits or corpse pits in abandoned mines.
Even though slaves fell down and died from time to time, for the entire Purgatory Mountain, it seemed that no one had been lost at all. It seemed that those slaves were still as numerous as ants all over the mountain.
Nangong Weiyang also squinted her eyes. She couldn't see as clearly as Lin Xi. She just intuitively didn't like places like Purgatory Mountain.
What she is best at is killing things she doesn't like with one sword.
"You guys go in, I'll help you get rid of some obstructions outside." However, in Lin Xi's silence, she said this.
After returning from the Ice and Snow Divine Land, she, Lin Xi, and Gu Xinyin reached an agreement on how to deal with Zhang Ping. Zhang Ping was getting stronger. Now even the Holy Master couldn't test how strong he was. She and Lin Xi There's no way to stop him from getting stronger through some means, but they can make him weaker through some things.
No matter how you become stronger, I will only do things to make you weaker.
This is their countermeasure.
She also wanted to enter the Purgatory Mountain that she didn't like, but she felt that letting Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue enter the Purgatory Mountain would have more impact on Zhang Ping.
Lin Xi understood what she meant, he nodded, and walked forward side by side with Qin Xiyue, entering the realm of Purgatory Mountain.
In the past spring, a great battle was fought around Purgatory Mountain. In the true sense, a small part of Purgatory Mountain was destroyed by the war. Especially after the heavy rain, some broken weapons on the ground were buried in the soil. Even some bones were exposed, allowing anyone who entered the Purgatory Mountain Realm to feel at a glance how cruel the battle was.
But Purgatory Mountain's ability to recover from absolute slavery is also amazing. Even though Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue were just two moving small dots on the outer plains of Purgatory Mountain, they were still moving very fast in front of them. A cavalry army appeared.
After the generals of this cavalry army clearly saw the faces of Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue from a distance, they immediately led their troops to retreat in panic. At the same time, they kept blowing their bugles and making warning sounds like ghosts crying and wolves howling.
The cavalry retreated.
A wave of dust filled the horizon but quickly rose up.
The ground after the heavy rain has not yet dried to the point of dust. The cavalry army of several hundred people did not even cause any noise. The dust waves at this moment are enough to show how terrifying the number of this army has reached.
situation.
Countless cavalry, infantry, and ordnance vehicles poured out like waves from the several volcanoes facing Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue. It even looked like the tide had submerged those volcanoes into isolated islands.
.
After the commotion caused by these armies, there are still teams pouring out. Combined with the continuous craters behind them, it feels like the door to the devil world has suddenly opened. This kind of army will never stop pouring out.
The sounds of countless powerful crossbows rang out.
Thousands of crossbow arrows soared into the sky within a breath, making a shrill roar, forming a violent rain of arrows.
Thousands of heavily armored cavalrymen who issued this violent sword rain were all shaken by the recoil of the crossbows on their horses. At a distance of more than two hundred steps, the small assault crossbows they were equipped with could no longer guarantee their safety.
Accuracy, however, such an army's arrow attack does not require any accuracy at all, only coverage.
After the previous unprecedented battle, at least half of the army in Da Mang was directly integrated into the mountain guard army of Purgatory Mountain. Some of the people in the army facing Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue had also met Li
It's hard to fight alone in the army.
Many of them had even seen Li Ku face a similar violent rain of arrows. They clearly remembered that when Li Ku faced such a rain of arrows, he used his tyrannical soul power to disperse outside his body, causing it to fall towards his body.
All the arrows came to rest outside his body, forming a huge arrow ball.
At this moment, they couldn't help but wonder, how would Lin Xi face such a rain of arrows?
…
Lin Xi did not release flying swords or use other means to attack and kill the army that first approached him.
When such a violent rain of arrows rose into the sky, he stretched out his hand, held Qin Xiyue's hand with one hand, and broke a branch from a lonely poplar tree next to him with the other hand.
Then he continued walking forward.
Those crossbow arrows that were as fast as lightning in the eyes of others were extremely slow in his eyes.
He walked through the gaps between these crossbow arrows, waving the branches in his hands and hitting the tail feathers of some arrows.
These arrows changed their flight direction, or flew out against his and Qin Xiyue's bodies, or hit other arrows.
Except for him, no one could see what was going on.
Everyone just saw the rain of arrows falling, but he walked out of the rain of arrows unharmed.
There wasn't even much vibration of soul power in his body.
However, this scene is even more inexplicably shocking and unimaginable than Li Ku's thousand arrows forming a ball.
Suddenly, the entire army was trembling.
Because most people are trembling.
Many people looked at the still intact poplar branch in Lin Xi's hand and could no longer move.
…
There is a young general in this Purgatory Mountain army.
This young general is the supreme commander of the entire Purgatory Mountain army.
He was wearing a blue-gold armor and was sitting on a chariot near the top of one of the volcanic craters in the army.
Such a scene also made him tremble a little, and the skin on his body had pimples. However, he did not feel afraid. On this mountain, he looked at a person from a distance and forced him to stop such a scene with invisible oppression.
Lin Xi, who was holding a large army, sneered and said: "What are you afraid of? No matter how strong he is, he is only one person. Back then, Li Ku could only use intimidation to enter the army and kill the commander. As long as he is not scared by him
If you don't dare, he will definitely die. Look around you, there are more than 100,000 troops here... kill him!"
At the front of the chariot where the young general was sitting, there was a platinum skull-shaped soul weapon. When his soul power poured into the runes of the soul weapon, countless whistling sounds rang out from the soul weapon. In the end, it was just
His voice was amplified countless times and spread from the top of the volcano to any corner of the battlefield, so that anyone could hear it clearly.
This voice made Lin Xi raise her head and notice his presence.
Lin Xi and Qin Xiyue both felt that this voice was somewhat familiar, and then Lin Xi vaguely saw the face of this young general.
"Qiu Lu, it's you?" Lin Xi frowned, and his voice sounded like water waves, reaching the top of the volcano.
Qin Xiyue was slightly startled. The shadow of a "Golden Spoon" student from the college appeared in her mind.
She remembered who Qiu Lu was, but she never imagined that Jin Shao, who entered Qingluan Academy with them, would actually become the leader of the Purgatory Mountain army at this moment.
"Yes, it's me."
On the crater, Qiu Lu, who was no longer immature, smiled, showing his white teeth, and said cruelly: "Lin Xi, you probably didn't expect that we would see each other in this way after leaving the academy, right?
"
"I really didn't expect that we would meet in this way." Lin Xi stopped, raised his head slightly, and said patiently, which is rare when facing an enemy: "No matter what disputes there were in the college in the past, no matter what
There is something inherently distasteful about the locals and gold spoons, but at least they are all students of the academy. I did not expect that you would also betray me and actually become the leader of an army like Purgatory Mountain."
"At this time and that time, I have always wanted to kill you, but I never had the chance." Qiu Lu said with some emotion: "I didn't expect you to fall into the trap yourself."
"It's because we are both students of the college that I talk to you more. After all, no matter good or bad, everything about us in the college is a memory worth cherishing." Lin Xi shook her head and said: "
Do you think I can't kill you? Don't forget that you were equally confident when you proposed a duel with me in the academy."
"Even if you have Dahei, you can't cross such a distance to kill me, let alone you don't have Dahei anymore." Qiu Lu sneered, sternly, almost roaring, "Kill him!"
In his fierce roar, many people in the army felt that he was right, and the entire army began to move again.
"You are wrong. Your knowledge is still limited to the power of all saint masters... Also, I don't have arrows, but it's the same with a sword."
However, Lin Xi just said this calmly.
His flying sword rose from behind him.
Then the sword no longer moved like any flying sword in the world, but followed his gaze and was directly driven by the unimaginable power he concentrated on it, soaring into the sky, directly beyond his control.
A ball of vitality and sound waves exploded in front of him.
His flying sword was like an arrow, shooting into the sky and flying to an unknown height. Only when it fell did everyone see the small dot that his flying sword turned into.
His flying sword followed his will and was used like an arrow, flying out and falling like a falling moon.
That small dot in the endless sky that was only seen when it fell turned into a stream of fire that cut through the sky in an instant.
Behind the flying sword, the blue flames produced by the burning air left a long mark in the air.
Qiu Lu's originally cold and proud face turned extremely pale.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Lin Xi's flying sword fell at a distance that no weapon in the world could hit, and it could no longer achieve absolute accuracy. However, the force that fell from the air was too huge, covering an area of several feet.
Before the flying sword approached the ground, the energy vortex and shock wave brought by the flying sword had already landed on the ground.
Under Qiu Lu's extremely horrified gaze, his body was unable to move at all, and he was instantly pressed down several inches. There were countless sounds of broken bones and broken flesh coming from his body.
"boom!"
The flying sword finally landed.
In the horrific impact and explosion, he and the chariot were blown away together. At the same time, countless holes appeared in his entire body, and broken flesh and bones sprayed out.
Lin Xi's eyes flickered slightly as she bid farewell to this former golden spoon.
