Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 352 The Shadow
Too many unexpected things happened on this day, and all practitioners were extremely tense. So far, people have been frightened by unknown things, but this time is different.

This time, people were frightened by the existence they already knew.

"Ghost!"

Accompanied by Wanyan's exclamation, everyone looked up at the scene in astonishment.

Under the faint moonlight, stood a dark shadow.

He was dressed in black, almost blending into the night, without any identity or age.But more frightening than the black clothes all over his body was the mask on his face.

That black figure had a huge armored mask on its face, which was particularly terrifying in the dark night.

Cold and hard, Shura is ferocious.

However, people's astonishment at this time was not because of shock, but because they were surprised to finally see him.

Seeing this character who I knew I would meet sooner or later, but I was surprised to see it at this time.

He wears armor and wears night clothes.

"This... this is..." A Northern Wei practitioner next to Meng Shi trembled and looked at his companion who had been knocked down by a sword, and suddenly his legs softened and he sat on the ground.

"Ghost...it's a ghost!" Another cultivator clenched the sword in his hand tightly, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and all his attention was focused on that black shadow.

ghost.

Ying Baoyue looked at the black shadow in front of her without blinking.

It was also the word that Wanyan was the first to yell when he saw this black shadow just now.

It was the first time I saw this figure in the dark forest. It really looked like a ghost, but the reason why the practitioners screamed like this was not because it looked like a ghost.

It was the well-dressed figure in front of me, whose name was indeed "Ghost."

In the first round of the crowd battle in the primary ceremony, if practitioners divide the challenges they face into three levels, the first level is plants, the second level is beasts, then the third level is also the most dangerous level.

It is a ghost.

This is a ghost, but also a person.

"What will happen in the first round of the primary ceremony?" At this moment, Ying Baoyue's conversation with Ji Jiashu before the primary ceremony rang in her ears.

"To put it simply, all practitioners need to stay in a mountain forest for three days, where there are many traps, beasts and... ghosts."

"What is a ghost?" she asked at the time.

"It's played by a person," the boy said at the time, "usually a high-level practitioner, as the opponent of the arrangement."

Dressed up by people, those who come are not good.

Looking at the black shadow standing quietly under the tree with a sharp sword and a Shura mask, Ying Baoyue clenched the Sunset Sword in his hand.

Is this the so-called ghost?

It is said that ghosts, as the biggest difficulty in the first round, usually only appear on the last day. In fact, they are also there in the first two days, and they will observe the weaknesses of each practitioner.

Is it hard to guard against it?
Has this person been observing all this for the past two days?

Ying Baoyue looked at the practitioner who had just been knocked down by the ghost sword, and found that although the man's breath was weaker, his life was safe, and it was more like being knocked unconscious than being knocked down.

"Is it... the back of the sword?"

She looked at the ghost under the tree, narrowed her eyes and spoke softly.

And the moment she opened her mouth, the black figure under the tree trembled invisibly, and then his figure disappeared in an instant.

The rest of the people were terrified and looking around, but at this moment Ying Baoyue's pupils shrank.

"Meng Shi! Front!"

Meng Shi's shoulder shook, and the next moment, accompanied by a sharp click of swords colliding, a cluster of sparks burst out in the darkness!
"Brother!"

"step son!"

A raging flame ignited on Meng Shi's sword, illuminating the frightening scene in front of him.

Meng Shi held the sword in both hands, and pressed against the long sword in the black shadow in front of him.

Ying Baoyue opened her eyes wide, she saw clearly what happened just now, the black figure didn't disappear in an instant, but his speed was too fast, he went straight to Meng Shi, and appeared in front of this person in an instant The sword cut down.

This person came from the front, but Meng Shi was almost unable to resist.

And the reason why he attacked Meng Shi was probably because Meng Shi was the strongest among them at this time.

The two swords collided, and it seemed that they were evenly matched, but the next moment, Meng Shi's pupils shrank, and her footsteps retreated suddenly, and she actually retreated ten feet away.

There was a crackling sound from the two swords rubbing against each other, sparks flashed in front of everyone's eyes, the black shadow took the opportunity to bounce into the air, Ying Baoyue raised his head suddenly, and saw that the person who was as light as a swallow had already stood beside them in an instant. On the branches overhead!

"he……"

"Brother, are you alright?"

Mo Hua looked at the black shadow on the tree, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, but the next moment he chose to rush to Meng Shi's side.

"I...it's fine, it's just..." Meng Shi took a deep breath with her sword to calm down the surging blood in her chest. The next moment she raised her head and looked at Mo Hua with a hoarse voice, "I... am not his opponent. .”

Mo Hua was taken aback, and the other practitioners of the Northern Wei Dynasty froze in place.

Although I guessed it at the beginning, it still had a huge impact when I actually saw it.

Ying Baoyue clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand tightly. Meng Shi seemed to be able to fight the black shadow five or five times just now, but in fact the black shadow was more than capable, but Meng Shi just tried to support it.

If that black shadow really moves, not only Meng Shi is not his opponent, but the rest of them have no chance of winning.

"How...how did this happen..." The practitioners beside Meng Shi fought with each other.

"Win...can't win."

Although it was known in advance that Oni was a high-level practitioner, no one could have imagined that it would be so powerful.

It's no wonder they are like this, even if Meng Shi has no prestige among practitioners in the Northern Wei Dynasty, everyone in the Northern Wei Dynasty knows that it is powerful.

After all, he was the one who won the first place in the first battle, and Meng Shiben, the step-son of the Northern Wei Dynasty, was one of the most powerful candidates for this primary ceremony.

But at this moment, even Meng Shi couldn't resist, proving that as long as this ghost had that intention, he could wipe out their entire army.

"We... what are we going to do..."

The cultivators of the Northern Wei Dynasty were completely confused, and Meng Shi bit her lips tightly.

She was not surprised by the strength of ghosts. After all, according to past rumors, ghosts are only one or two people at a time in a crowd battle. How can they be weak if they can stir up the situation by themselves? s things.

At least a few powerful practitioners are needed to cooperate.

But at this time, she was surrounded by some uncooperative mobs, and just now these people were thinking of killing a hundred by mistake and not letting one go.

And at this moment, there was a sound of wind in the woods above her head. At that moment, Meng Shi seemed to feel the condescending sight of the Asura mask staring down, and then she suddenly had a premonition.

This man is coming down!

"Northern Wei people obey orders! Everyone run to the camp! Run!"

Meng Shi bit the tip of her tongue violently, a cluster of flames erupted from the tip of her sword, but the next moment, the flame on the tip of her sword shook violently like a blown out flame on a candle, and the next moment a shadow appeared on her forehead Meng Shi gritted her teeth fiercely Looking up, the black shadow had already blocked the moon in the sky and swooped down from the tree!

too fast!
A drop of cold sweat oozes from Meng Shi's forehead. At this moment, the tip of Mo Hua's sword beside her is also shining with infinite brilliance. Behind her is the sound of hurried footsteps fleeing, but the sword light of that black shadow seems to touch the tip of her nose in the next moment.

Catch up!
Meng Shi fell backwards abruptly, swinging her arms violently when she fell, but what made her desperate was that the sword of the black shadow was actually faster, faster than hers and Mo Hua, her sword fell into the air and died in an instant The breath of is already close at hand...

click!
However, accompanied by a teeth-stinging crash, Meng Shi could smell the rust.Not her blood, but the real smell of rust.

Meng Shi opened her eyes in a daze, looking at the rusty sword stuck in front of her face.

But the next moment her chest went numb, someone knocked her away with a shoulder, Meng Shi staggered suddenly, raised her head desperately, only to see the slender figure standing in front of her.

At that moment of sword light and flint, she did not expect that it was the girl who was the fastest.

But at the next moment, there was a plop, and the woman who stood in front of her amidst the sword light and flint was suddenly overwhelmed by that black shadow!
The long sword in that shadow's hand slammed against Ying Baoyue's neck.

Accompanied by the rattling sound of rattling teeth, Ying Baoyue inserted his sword into the sword of death at a critical moment, and the girl in a very close distance held her rusty sword tightly and barely blocked it.

"win……"

Meng Shi stretched out her hand and spoke in astonishment, but the next moment seemed to be her hallucination, the overlapping black shadow and Ying Baoyue turned their heads to look at her at the same time.

The eyes of both of them were closed quickly, everything seemed like a dream, Meng Shi was taken aback suddenly, and the screams of Northern Wei people came from behind her.

"It doesn't matter, let's run first!"

"Where's the stepson?"

"While this black shadow is attacking the former Qin people, let's run quickly!"

Meng Shi was stiff and at a loss, but the next moment a cold hand suddenly grabbed her hand, and she was shocked and looked at Mo Hua beside her.

"Trust me, she will be fine," Mo Hua said quickly in a voice that only she could hear, and pulled her back abruptly, "Follow me!"

"I..." Meng Shi was at a loss, but the next moment she saw the girl in front of her slightly tilt her head, as if making a gesture to her.

"Brother!" Mo Hua shouted.

Meng Shi was determined and gave up struggling, and then she and Mo Hua picked up the corpse on the ground and the fainted practitioner, and Mo Hua pulled her away.

The human voice gradually faded away.

The forest became quiet, only the sound of swords clashing could be heard.

The moonlight shone faintly, and the black shadow pressed down the knife desperately, and Ying embraced the moon and blocked it with the horizontal sword. The two of them seemed to be closely attached to each other, but there was a sword between them.

In the extremely close distance, separated by the cold iron surface, the two looked into their own eyes.

It was very still.

A faint cool breeze blew from the forest, blowing over the two of them.

A little firefly rises in the dark, it is a firefly in the grass.

The fireflies of the firefly reflected the girl's eyes.

The moment the four eyes met, the pupils in the iron mask of the black shadow shook for a moment. He was about to look away, but the next moment he heard the girl under him suddenly speak quietly.

"How did you come?"

The black shadow shook violently, and the whole person froze.
