  Chapter 202 invited a terrible **** (8000)

  The blade glowed brightly, covering the sky and covering the earth.

  When the sword light appeared, it was like a full moon falling from the sky, and even the moonlight could not cover up the wanton swaying of the sword light.

  The blazing blade light was like the scorching sun, sweeping towards the white-haired old man with unrivaled power.

  —Beheading!

  As soon as this knife is released, the world will fall apart.

  Although Xu Bai has not reached the extraordinary, nor has he reached the ninth rank of the extraordinary state, his power may have declined somewhat, but the aura of beheading people, amidst the chaos of golden and gray and white, is full of hopeless horror.

  In addition to Tianchang, there is also the bonus of the coexistence of yin and yang skills.

   This knife is unstoppable.

  Ahead, the forest is dark.

  Even the blade light that can compete with the sun and the moon cannot invade the white-haired old man at this moment.

  The darkness was caused by the white-haired old man.

  Dim surrounds the white-haired old man, layer upon layer, making it impossible to see through its essence.

  In the dark, the white-haired old man's words were full of madness.

   "Ah, such a strong young man, before he is exhausted, he is also a talent that will shock the past and the present."

   "What a pity, what a pity! Such a genius is about to die here, it is really embarrassing."

   "However, for a young man like you, the meat must be very fragrant, and it must be able to delay my state."

   "Oops, I'm drooling, I'm going to...eat you!"

   When the last sentence was spoken, the white-haired old man made a sudden move.

   I didn't see him making too much movement, but I saw the white-haired old man slightly raised his right hand.

  There is nothing above the right hand, except for the wrinkled skin, the index finger and **** are bent, making a snap-finger shape.

  The white-haired old man exerted a little force, and his **** popped out.

  The next moment, a huge wind blew past.

  Before Xu Bai could react, the yin wind was like a knife, cutting the bright blade light layer by layer.

  The blade is in ruins, everything is dissipating.

  If Xu Bai had the strength of an extraordinary realm, beheading people would not be so easy, and even the white-haired old man could be beheaded by the sword.

   But now, it seems not.

  The strength of this white-haired old man must not belong to the realm of transformation, but must have reached the extraordinary.

  Because with Xu Bai's strength at the sixth rank of the Mortal Transformation Realm, coupled with his ability to fight across the ranks, he is already invincible in the Mortal Transformation Realm.

   "It's really strong."

  The dark wind possessed him, and there were shrill screams and scalp-numbing wails in his ears, and Xu Bai felt a pain all over his body.

   On his body, the patterns made of the Buddha body of the immortal demon soul gave Xu Bai unparalleled defense and recovery power.

  But all this, with the snap of the fingers of the white-haired old man, is on the verge of ruin.

  The physical body is dying, and the pain is overwhelming, wave after wave.

  Gold and gray and white are constantly flowing, and the sky becomes chaotic and Xu Bai is engulfed.

  With the assistance of Tianbian, Xu Bai's dilapidated body continued to recover.

  The recovery power and the speed of being destroyed have reached a balance.

  Even... faster than the white-haired old man!

  The skill of the Immortal Demon Soul Buddha Body is not like the sword and sword that can only be used in one move. This skill, Xu Bai can use full firepower, but the consumption of true energy is a bit too much.

  So now the white-haired old man can't hurt him, or can't keep up with his resilience, Xu Bai concluded that even if this person is at the extraordinary level, he is not very strong.

  A crazy idea emerged in Xu Bai's mind.

  —Fuck him!

  After this idea arises, it seems to take root and sprout, and it can't be lingered at all.

  If the younger generation outside hear it, it will definitely be a big blow.

   When encountering Transcendence in the Transcendence Realm, the general situation has already run away, after all, this is a big gap in the realm.

  But Xu Bai can't run away.

  Because the white-haired old man did not break through the resilience of the Immortal Demon Soul Buddha Body, even the Immortal Demon Soul Buddha Body could stabilize the white-haired old man.

  In this case, the strength of the white-haired old man must not be the strongest among the extraordinary.

  Xu Bai felt that he had hope!

  He wanted to kill the white-haired old man, but he needed a way.

  Xu Bai kept reverberating all his skills in his mind.

   Skills flashed in his mind one by one, Xu Bai resisted the wind and was screening.

   After about half a stick of incense, he opened his eyes.

   During this process, the white-haired old man kept attacking.

  Every attack brings a chilly wind that tingles the scalp.

  At this time, the forehead of the white-haired old man and the face that was half crazy and half calm showed a look of surprise and uncertainty.

  He's soberly insane, he knows what he's doing, but he can't hold back his thoughts, so he understands the situation.

  This mysterious young man, as if he had taken medicine, was able to stop him with ease.

  The recovery ability seems to be more advanced than him.

  The white-haired old man was in a hurry.

  The most important thing is that this young man didn't even run away!

   This is the most important thing.

   If you don’t run away, that means you want to fight him.

  To be honest, the white-haired old man is a little panicked now.

   The young man in front of him, some of his strengths, I really don't understand.

  It is obviously only the strength of the mortal realm, but why is there such a strong method?

  After all kinds of incomprehension gathered together, it became the weirdness and fear of today.

  The white-haired old man didn't want to admit it, but he was indeed afraid of this young man.

  He wanted to leave very much, because he had exhausted countless methods and finally survived. He didn't want to be completely buried here just because of a single mistake.

   But he can't go, because he is now, and at the tipping point of madness.

   There have been countless times, and he has fallen into this situation, but every time, he was suppressed by his method of eating the same kind.

  There is no one on this mountain. If he leaves now, he is worried that he will not be able to bear it, and he will go completely crazy before he finds a new person.

   "You are working hard, and I am working hard, so it depends on whose life is hard!" The white-haired old man wiped off the sweat from his head, and the madness in his eyes became more and more intense.

   Countless cold winds came from the white-haired old man, crushing towards Xu Bai.

  Behind the white-haired old man, the wind gathered into a huge portrait, which was the transformation of the white-haired old man.

  The portrait opened its mouth, and in that mouth, there was a more intense Yin wind, but it didn't shoot out, but kept gathering.

  He wants to use the strongest means to destroy Xu Bai.

  At this time, Xu Bai, who had kept his eyes closed all this time, finally opened them again.

   There was a trace of calmness in his eyes.

  After screening so many skills, Xu Bai finally found his life.

  —Shanpai invites the divine method.

  He is now, even if he uses all his skills, he may not be able to solve the current predicament.

  Because other skills are weak.

  He has already used all the skills above the Mortal Transformation Realm that can be used now, but the Mountain School's Invoking God Technique is useless.

  He wanted to try, and with the help of the Mountain School's method of inviting gods, whether he could beat the white-haired old man to death.

   It would be best if he was killed, but if he couldn't, he would turn around and run away without the slightest hesitation.

   "Huh..." Xu Bai let out a long breath.

  He raised his hands and kept swaying in mid-air, drawing various weird arcs.

   At the same time, paragraphs of words came out of Xu Bai's mouth, with a unique rhythm.

   "Please pray that the fragrance will sink into the universe, and Yongqian will open the gate of heaven, walk through the gate of heaven, and make a special obeisance."

   "Please help me to ride the wind, the first white machine is good at following the order, the third high wind sage phoenix spirit, the Holy Spirit is famous all over the world."

   "The supernatural powers in front of the temple come to help the golden body! The disciples wholeheartedly pray!"

  According to the tenet of the Mountain School's invitation to the gods, it is necessary to use formulas, and Xu Bai is using formulas at the moment.

  As he recited these formulas, Xu Bai suddenly felt the true energy in his body shaking, and then he raised his head and looked at a certain position in the sky.

   It was like a kind of induction in the dark, he sensed that something was appearing at that position, and what was about to appear had an inseparable relationship with him.

  A strange feeling lingered in his heart. At this moment, as he looked over, in the distant sky, a phantom was constantly manifesting.

  The phantom was very faint at first, but as time passed, it became thicker and gradually appeared in front of Xu Bai's eyes.

   "Fuck!"

  When Xu Bai saw who the person was, he was taken aback, and then he couldn't help but uttered a foul word.

  After uttering this foul language, he was even thinking about turning around and running away instead of staying here, otherwise his life would really be on the line.

  The person who appeared was dressed in white, with fluttering long hair, as black as night.

  That face is extremely handsome, these are secondary, the most important thing is that this person's eyes are empty, like wood, as if he has no soul.

  With no soul, white clothes and messy hair, and this person's familiar face, Xu Bai felt as if he had recruited something terrible.

  —Madman in white! Breeze!

  The guy who created his own indestructible body was recruited by him alive, it's outrageous!

  According to the skill description of the Mountain School Invoking God Method, this skill is not about inviting the gods, but similar to summoning.

   He couldn't tell what he could summon, because it wasn't written in this book.

   It just means that it is possible to summon an existence stronger than oneself, and the summoned thing has a certain connection with oneself.

  Toxic!

  At this moment, only these two words echoed in Xu Bai's heart.

  He felt that his luck had run out when he went to Beijing.

  After Liu Qingfeng, a lunatic in white, appeared, his empty eyes turned around, and then his eyes stopped on Xu Bai.

  He has no soul, he is not actually a lunatic, he is just doing things by instinct. Seeing Xu Bai at this moment, he stepped forward step by step, and went directly in front of Xu Bai, standing in the middle of the two battlefields.

  The scene fell into an eerie silence, the dark wind was blocked by the clear wind, and it was impossible to enter at all.

  The white-haired old man was terrified, his eyes were full of fear, and he took a step back silently.

  He could feel that the terror of the man in white in front of him was definitely not something he could resist.

  Blocking his evil wind with just his body, such a terrifying existence made him want to retreat.

  Although he might go crazy if he left, he would definitely die if he stayed here. Of course he chose to leave.

  But sometimes, if you don't want to leave, you can leave.

  Because someone didn't want him to leave.

  Liu Qingfeng turned his head, stared at the white-haired old man with empty eyes, then raised his left hand and pressed it down slightly.

   "Boom!"

   There was a loud sound, and the top of the mountain trembled. Under Liu Qingfeng's palm, it turned into powder, but the white-haired old man didn't have the slightest resistance to resist, and gradually turned into ashes from the beginning.

  Through the whole process, they couldn't even resist.

  The mountain began to tremble and collapse. Such a towering mountain peak would be destroyed in an instant.

  Xu Bai was very straightforward, turned around and flew into the distance.

   You can't stay here anymore. After summoning such a thing, staying here is like dying.

  Run first, wait until the time is up for the ruins, and then you can go out. Naturally, King Shengyou will deal with this guy.

  According to the description of the Mountain School Invitation to the Gods, the ones invited can be controlled, but it is not certain.

  When the invited "God" appears, there may be uncontrollable situations.

   Now...

   It's strange to be able to control it. The guy in front of him doesn't even have a soul. What can he use to control it?

  Thinking like this, Xu Bai turned his head and ran a long way.

   A voice came from behind.

  A huge pressure came from behind, then Xu Bai stopped and looked ahead.

  Liu Qingfeng had already arrived first, and arrived in front of him earlier, stopping him.

   "This is the rhythm of finishing the calf." Xu Bai thought.

  In fact, in addition to inviting gods, there is also sending gods away, but according to the description of this skill, if the gods invited are very strong, they may not be able to send them away.

   Now, he finally understands why this so-called God-inviting faction became extinct.

  伱 If it is not extinct, who will be extinct?

  You can’t even control what you invite, and everyone is in this business, and you die every day. If you invite this and that, it can be passed down forever, and there is only one book, which is already very good.

   In front of him, Liu Qingfeng was getting closer and closer, he just stepped in front of Xu Bai with just one step, and just stared at Xu Bai with those empty eyes.

   Those eyes still lacked any energy, but Xu Bai felt that something was being pulled away from him.

   Soul!

   That's right, it's the soul!

   This guy is actually pumping his soul, but not fast.

  The spirit that was taken away entered Liu Qingfeng's head, but soon dispersed with his head.

  Originally, when the soul entered Liu Qingfeng's mind, Liu Qingfeng regained a bit of sanity, but it dissipated faster. He was like a funnel, and it was impossible to hold the soul.

   "If that's the case, maybe there is another way." Xu Bai thought in his heart.

  I thought it would be like the last time, just come and do it directly, but now it seems that this is not the case. If it is just to draw the soul, it seems that it is no big deal.

smoke!

  Draw as you please!

  If it weren't for the inopportune moment, Xu Bai even wanted to wave his hand, pretending to be very proud.

   Isn't it just to draw the soul?

   Give as much as you draw, and it can be completely regenerated after the draw.

  The Immortal Demon Soul Buddha Body does consume true energy when used, but it only provides a recovery function like this, so the consumption will be greatly reduced.

  Xu Bai tried to take a step further, wanting to test it out.

  As he walked, Liu Qingfeng followed him, but there was no change, and he was still absorbing his soul.

   It's like a tireless machine, constantly absorbing the soul, but no matter how you absorb it, it is a huge hole in itself, which cannot be filled at all.

   "Is there no danger?" Xu Bai raised his hand, touched his chin habitually, thinking secretly.

  The next moment, a scene that surprised him appeared.

  I saw Liu Qingfeng also raised his hand, touched his chin, doing the same movement as Xu Bai, even while doing this movement, he was still constantly absorbing Xu Bai's soul.

  Xu Bai: "..."

  This... is a bit fun.

  He tried to raise his hands, and Liu Qingfeng also raised his hands, and tried to run again, but Liu Qingfeng still imitated his movements.

  No matter what he does, the opponent is learning.

   "I seem to understand." Xu Bai thought for a moment, looked at a stone not far away, and hit his head directly on it.

   But before he could hit him, a hand was in the middle, stopping him.

   This was stopped by Liu Qingfeng.

   "Sure enough, I don't know if it's good or bad." Xu Bai felt a little speechless.

  Through this series of experiments, he had a very clear guess in his mind.

  Perhaps it was because Liu Qingfeng absorbed his soul, so there was no danger for the time being, and it seemed to be able to maintain some kind of connection with himself after absorbing his own soul.

  The most important thing is that this guy doesn't seem to want to die by himself. Just now he hit his head on a rock and was stopped.

   Could it be that this scene happened because of absorbing the soul?

  Xu Bai didn't feel happy after having this thought in his mind.

  To be honest, in this situation, there is such a powerful person who is similar to being controlled. It might be very happy to change to someone else, but it is not so sure to change to him.

  The reason is very simple, it is not stable at all.

   This is the most important point.

   It's not like those novels, what kind of confession is made by blood.

  In this case, it might be the next moment to do it, no one can tell.

  So Xu Bai is a little worried, but at least for now, his current situation is not dangerous for the time being.

   "If you can leave the ruins until the end of time, then you can see King Shengyou, that's the most important thing." Xu Bai thought to himself.

  As long as you go out, King Shengyou will definitely be there, and then you can drive this guy away.

   But before that, he won't sit still. The stone tablet said it was at the bottom of the mountain.

   This mountain has been razed to the ground by Liu Qingfeng, but there is nothing underground. Xu Bai plans to take advantage of this time to go down and take a look.

  After all, the dead white-haired old man once said that there are dozens of books left by him, as well as the truth of his speculation, so Xu Bai wanted to find out.

   Not only for the dozens of progress bars, but more importantly, the truth.

   Regarding the truth about the depletion of resources in that era, although it is only the speculation of the white-haired old man, it can also be regarded as a clue.

  Thinking of this, Xu Bai controlled his body and flew towards the bottom of the mountain.

  After he had this movement, Liu Qingfeng kept the same movement as him, like a bodyguard who never left.

   This guy didn't do anything, just followed, but he was still absorbing his soul.

  The most important thing is that Xu Bai didn't feel any pain, it was as if an inexplicable channel was opened, and it kept pouring in, but it didn't tear the soul.

   "It's broken."

  Xu Bai also stopped caring about this guy, and came to the bottom of the mountain on his own.

  Sansheng Mountain has been razed to the ground by Liu Qingfeng, there are ruins everywhere, and there is an empty flat land under the mountain.

  When Xu Bai landed on the flat ground, he carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

  It was still dark all around, and the moon was still hanging high overhead.

  Xu Bai stamped the ground with his feet, it was solid and heavy, it didn't look like there was anything underground at all.

   But since it is buried here, it must not be on the surface, so Xu Bai was not confused by the surface.

  Anyway, I’m in the ruins now, since I can’t see anything from the surface, I’ll blast the surface.

  Thinking about this, Xu Bai raised his hand, a golden and off-white chaos hovered around him, and a bright sword light bloomed from his hand.

  When he made this action, Liu Qingfeng still stood beside him with empty eyes, constantly absorbing his spirit.

  Xu Bai ignored him and chopped him to the ground.

  The terrifying power gradually spread, and the ground began to tremble following the knife, and a large pit gradually emerged.

  The ground is subsiding, but the blade is constantly advancing, and when it reaches a limit, the deep pit collapses suddenly.

   It seems that there is a space underground, and this space has been completely broken.

  Below is a huge black cave, no light can be seen.

  The moonlight did not illuminate too much area.

   But Xu Bai's eyesight can see clearly, there is a huge box underneath.

  The box was not locked, and the lid on it was open, Xu Bai saw dozens of books.

  A golden progress bar appeared, looking at these dozens of books, Xu Bai's eyes suddenly widened, like a money fan who couldn't help getting excited when he saw a huge amount of treasure.

  Dozens of books, dozens of books, equivalent to dozens of progress bars!

  Even if it was him, he couldn't restrain the excitement and excitement in his heart at this moment.

  Xu Bai rubbed his hands together and prepared to jump into the cave without thinking about anything else.

  He only has the progress bar in his eyes now, and he doesn't care about the rest.

  But sometimes, there are times in destiny, and sometimes there must be something in destiny, and there is no time in destiny.

  When Xu Bai was about to jump into it, suddenly, the surrounding space distorted, and a dark will echoed in his mind.

  Although he didn't speak or write, he clearly told Xu Bai that he was leaving.

  Why are you leaving? The time for the ruins has come.

   "I'm going, you can't do this!"

  Xu Bai reacted and shuddered, and then he jumped down quickly.

  Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the treasure chest below, Xu Bai became more and more anxious.

  The surrounding space was blurring. When he was about to touch the treasure chest, the next moment, he found that he was no longer in the ruins.

  Of course, he was not in the place where he entered the ruins, but in one of the spaces, just like before he came.

  The surrounding scenery is gradually shattering and blending, and when the shattering and blending reaches the extreme, it will return to the original place.

   "Blood loss!" Xu Bai almost couldn't hold back his roar.

   Just a little short, he was able to touch that treasure chest!

   But it’s really just a little bit, but this little bit is like a world of difference.

  Looking at Liu Qingfeng standing beside him like a piece of wood, Xu Bai wanted to kick him, but he held back.

  The surrounding scenery is still merging. He knows that he is about to return to the outside world, so he puts away his regret for the time being.

  The body surged for a while, and it had already turned into Chu Yu's figure, and he put the human skin mask on his face conveniently.

   This time I came in quietly, and I can't let others find out about my situation, otherwise it will be difficult to say when the time comes.

  Although the item was not obtained, Xu Bai already had a new idea.

   This thing is a relic, that is to say, it happened at some time in the past.

  In this way, will there be the same mountain in the outside world, and even something under the mountain?

  He is an extremely serious person, especially when it comes to progress bars. He really doesn’t want to lose money with dozens of progress bars.

   Not to mention the white-haired old man's speculation about that era.

  So Xu Bai has already made up his mind. After going out, he must find that mountain as soon as possible, so that he can gain something.

  Signs of integration are gradually spreading. When everything is completely integrated, Xu Bai only feels a flash in front of his eyes, and then appears beside the Midnight River.

  …

   Surrounded by a three-way confrontation, footsteps sounded from behind Xu Bai.

  He turned his head to look, and found that the Shengyou army who went in together had also come out, but only half remained, obviously the other half remained in the ruins forever.

  However, the faces of these Shengyou soldiers were not sad, but determined. Before they entered, they were already prepared to die.

   Before he could speak, he felt an inexplicable pressure behind him.

   Immediately afterwards, Liu Qingfeng rose directly from the ground and disappeared at the far end.

  He has no soul, just like a piece of wood, but he still has instincts.

  The three parties in front of him all had existences that horrified him, so he ran away immediately.

  Xu Bai raised his head, looked at the running back, and couldn't help but sigh: "You were handsome when you came, but you were very embarrassed when you left."

   As soon as the emotion was uttered, it was immediately interrupted by a voice.

   "Where's our army!" Bai Chong, the God of the Dayue National Army, looked at the empty ground. Except for Xu Bai and Shengyou Army, no one else came back, and his face could not help but be gloomy.

  He didn't even care about Liu Qingfeng, in fact, everyone present knew about Liu Qingfeng.

   But Liu Qingfeng ran very fast, and they didn't want to chase him at this time. After all, there was no benefit in chasing him.

  Compared to chasing, Bai Zhong wanted to know what happened to his army.

  Of course he knew that it must have been a disaster, but why did some people come back alive from the Great Chu Kingdom?

  The deputy leader of the Supreme Tribe, Gu Muyin, also had a gloomy expression, as if he had eaten a fly.

  Although he didn't speak, the meaning was already revealed in his eyes.

  Xu Bai shrugged, imitating Chu Yu's movements, patted his chest, and made a frightened expression: "It's so scary, they are in danger."

   "At that time, we wanted to rescue them, but we didn't expect that they were all gone before we could do it. We fought so many people to escape from inside."

  The words were full of regrets. If everyone present knew what the situation of the three parties was, they would have believed it.

   "How dare you lie to me!" Gu Muyin was a barbarian after all, with a hot temper and murderous intent in his tone.

  Before Xu Bai could speak, the next moment, the voice of King Shengyou came out, as cold as ten thousand years of profound ice.

   "Entering the ruins, life and death are up to fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, don't you understand this truth? Don't accept it? You want to threaten the king's daughter, do you want to go to war?"

   King Shengyou took a step forward with his army, as if he really wanted to start a fight.

  Gu Muyin recovered quickly. He glanced at Bai Chong, but couldn't figure out what Bai Chong was thinking.

  The powers of the three parties are evenly matched, but King Shengyou still has a small advantage.

  Don't look at this advantage as small, but when it comes to fighting, it can be infinitely magnified.

  So Gu Muyin didn't know, if a fight really broke out, what would Bai Zhong do, whether to help him or promote you king, no one could be sure.

  Even if Bai Zhong said he wanted to help him, he didn't dare to do it. After all, anyone can say a word, but no one knows whether he will do it.

  So when King Shengyou finished speaking, Gu Muyin's face was gloomy, but he didn't say a word.

   "Let's go!" Except for the first sentence, Bai Zhong didn't say a word. He simply said a word, then turned around and left directly with his soldiers and horses, without dragging his feet.

  Now that the matter has become a foregone conclusion, it is hard for them to say anything more.

   Is it possible to start fighting?

   It's not time to fight yet.

   Seeing this situation, Gu Muyin snorted coldly, turned around and left.

   In a blink of an eye, this place already seemed a little empty.

  Looking at the only half of the Shengyou army left, King Shengyou sighed.

  Anyone who sees this situation will feel a little uncomfortable, even if they are used to seeing life and death, they can't help it.

   "Have you gained anything?" King Shengyou asked.

  He didn't ask Xu Bai, but the Shengyou Army who entered the ruins.

  The general clasped his fists and saluted: "Go back to the prince, there is something to gain. At the end of the day, the general will wait to go back and count it, and then report it all."

  They didn't bring anything in, and they didn't bring anything out when they came out, but they all said that there was something to gain, and there must be something.

   King Shengyou nodded and said: "Brothers who died, set up a tomb for them. In addition, give their families a good pension. Remember, they must not be chilled."

   "Yes!" The general quickly agreed.

   King Shengyou glanced at Xu Bai, and said: "Now is not the place to talk. After you go back, you come to my camp, and this king will chat with you."

  Xu Bai nodded.

   King Shengyou turned around and began to lead the way.

   Nothing happened along the way, very safe.

   I have to say that although Liu Qingfeng lost his soul, his instincts were really sensitive, and he ran without the slightest hesitation, otherwise he might really have to stay there.

  After returning to the barracks, he first dismissed the army, and then King Shengyou brought Xu Bai to the camp.

  At this time, Xu Bai also recovered his original appearance, and Chu Yu also became the same.

   Only Xu Bai and King Shengyou were left in the tent, and Chu Yu also left.

  Xu Baigang was about to speak and asked about Sansheng Mountain, after all, he was very interested in that place now.

  If you can find the location, maybe you can make a fortune.

   Unexpectedly, before he could speak, King Shengyou spoke a step earlier...

   "Don't get too close to Liu Qingfeng, he lost his soul, it's not as simple as the rumors in the rivers and lakes."
