sword sentient beings

Chapter 447 Battle in the Darkness
Colorful clouds, lighting candles.

On the large clouds, there are hand lanterns one after another, arranged in irregular but regular formations, and the lights shine in all directions, shining brightly in all directions, like a grand banquet.

In the center of the grand light, that is, in the pavilion, the black widow and Yue Lai sat upright, their expressions were solemn and almost pious, surrounded by the flames, there was no shadow on their bodies.

Above them, Shangguan swordsman also held a torch, trying to illuminate his whole body.

Shangguan Swordsman missed his opinion on whether to enter the shadow because his finger was stuck.Seeing the shadow approaching, Meng Huazhou didn't let him down under such circumstances, and he never put all his eggs in one basket, cut off his fingers and jumped into the sun to hide, but grabbing a torch from the air is always possible.

Black Widow had quite a few flashlights in her hands, so there was no need to kill them, so she gave one to him, but she wondered inwardly: Why is this swordsman so persistent?Nine deaths in the shadows are nothing compared to this one finger, right?It's not that there are no swordsmen out there who can cut off their fingers and be reborn, so why bother to persevere?
She is persistent because of her many years of dreams, and Yue Lai is persistent because of hatred unknown to outsiders.Not to mention Meng Huazhou, the fairy city dream is almost his spiritual support.Moreover, none of the three of them are swordsmen.

In this world, one is either a swordsman or a mortal, there is a world of difference between the two.

The world tacitly agrees that the life of a mortal is worthless. In order to be reborn and change one's life against the sky, a mortal has to pay some price, such as putting one's life on the stage to gamble. This risk is recognized as worth taking.But that one is already a swordsman, nobler than ordinary people, and the ladder to heaven is already in his hands, so what is he asking for so desperately?

What is there in the fairy city that can make him fly to the flame?

As for Meng Huazhou, it was naturally silent, which made the black widow wonder - is this kid still there?Is it already dead in that flower?
She didn't know that on the same cloud, there were also invisible uninvited guests.

On the other side of the pavilion, the white fox is curled up in the light of a hand lamp. The white hair is shining golden under the light, almost turning into a golden fox.

Beside it was Tang Zhao who was also sitting, resting his chin on one hand as if he was asleep.

Tang Zhao is here, but no one can see him.This is the handwriting of the white fox.

Tang Zhao didn't understand the specific sword skills, but anyway, he sat on a small cloud with others, and everyone turned a blind eye.

But Baihu reminded him that he never existed before, so don't do whatever you want to alarm others, once you make acquaintances wonder: Is Tang Zhao still here?His image will soon be revealed.

Fortunately, Tang Zhao didn't plan to go to war at first, he was just worried about the black widow, and he was also a little curious about the fairy city in the story, so he watched quietly here, if he got something, it would be best, waiting for things to happen, the guarantee is to save the black widow The widow, just lead her out with sword skills.

The black shadow of Wang Liang was getting closer and closer, and the outline of the black was gradually blurred.

A cloud may have various shapes in the distance, but once it is close, there is only a vast cloud covering the eyes, and no shape can be seen clearly.The same is true for the black shadow. From a distance, the black smoke looks like a black whirlpool, slowly rotating, but the closer you get, the less you can see the whole picture, only the sky and the ground are pitch black.

That black shadow seems to want to suck in everything in the world, light, color, sound, temperature... everything that can measure existence is swallowed by black.

Absolute darkness, absolute silence.

You don't need to be in the scene, just get close to it, and you can already feel the endless oppression in it, and the human body will be frozen.

The sunlight from the lamp tube shone into the shadows far away, and part of it was swallowed up silently. The farther away, the thinner and dimmer the light became, just like a river gradually disappearing in the desert.

Fortunately, the sunlight is different after all, it has not been swallowed up indiscriminately, and the light is still bright nearby.In particular, a shadowless halo formed by the intersecting lamp tubes of several hands finally kept the darkness out steadily.

In the endless darkness and despair, the light zone of the cloud head is like the only hope, like a warm embrace, which is intoxicating.

Gradually, the clouds approached the interior from the edge of the shadow.At first, only the front was dark, and then the left, right, up and down were also plunged into darkness.But because the back is illuminated by the light, it is still blessed with a little light, and you can see the outside world. In the end, as the clouds advance, the brilliance can no longer shine on the back, and the darkness behind is completely closed, blocking the intersection of inside and outside. , the cloud has truly become an island.

The intrusion of clouds is like dropping a stone on the surface of a lake.There was a ripple, and then calm was restored.

"This is another world."

Black Widow felt it, after being surrounded by darkness, she instantly felt abandoned by the original world.Even if there are still lights flickering around, it can't give her the slightest sense of security.

To be honest, I still have a little regret.Regret your hasty decision.

People's hearts are inherently complicated, the impassionedness just now is true, and the regret now is also true.

Fortunately, Tang Zhao left, so that even if she cried regretfully, she would not be afraid of losing face in front of the child.

She turned her head to the side, wanting to talk casually to Yue Lai, whom she was completely unfamiliar with, to ease her depression, but suddenly she felt her whole body explode, and she dodged back——

Stab it!

A black shadow emerged from the darkness and rushed towards the Black Widow.

The black shadow was so fast that it rushed to the eyes almost instantly.

The black widow did not expect that there would be an enemy attack in the shadows, but she was also a seasoned master, her body reacted naturally, she twisted her waist in a wrong step, wiped her body to avoid the shadow's pounce, then flicked her sleeves, and shot out in shock , turn back to trap the black shadow.

However, this set is full of empty.

There was nothing behind her, not to mention the assailant, there was nothing unusual about it.

The black widow was puzzled, and said, "I read it wrong? Or is it a mental attack?"

If it is really a spiritual attack, it is not uncommon. The phantom in the evil disaster is mainly based on mental attacks, and the heart charm can even drive a good person crazy without knowing it.As a warrior, you can protect your body against spiritual attacks with the strength of the energy.

Yue Lai said: "It's not. It's true..."

Before he finished speaking, a cloud of black smoke rushed from behind him, hitting his neck directly.

Yue Lai's reaction was much faster than that of the Black Widow, he swung his sword back and stabbed like lightning.

This stab also pierced an empty space!

This time the black widow could see clearly, a face suddenly protruded from the darkness, three parts like a human and seven parts like a ghost, it grew its mouth and bit at Yue Lai, the speed was so fast that even with the black widow's eyesight Afterimages are seen.

However, the black shadow began to dissipate from the moment it left the dark place, as if a ball of snow was thrown into a frying pan. It kept its shape at the beginning, but it was roasted by high temperature in a blink of an eye, turning into snow water, and finally disappeared. In the hot smoke of the frying pan.

The black widow could still see a realistic face the moment the black shadow pounced out, but it had become abstract before it pounced behind Yue Lai, and it had completely dissipated the next moment Yue Lai drew his sword and slashed down.

It dissipated so quickly that Black Widow almost thought it was a prank.

Yue Lai stared at the tip of his sword, and said after a while: "Master Yin, come to the middle. Don't be caught by it."

The black widow was startled for a moment, but immediately understood, and hurriedly walked a few steps.

The monster in the shadow is obviously afraid of the sun, and it will dissipate when it is illuminated, but it is not without danger before dissipating.As long as ordinary shadows are illuminated, they will disappear in an instant, but that monster-like shadow can exist independently for a few breaths on the clouds where the brilliance shines without blind spots, which is extraordinary in itself.

It is so weird, even if it is rubbed against a small piece of skin before it dissipates, it is very dangerous. It is not safe to stand on the edge of the light, and the farther away from the darkness, the safer.

The black widow is also a person who has been in the army, her mind turned, and she has already started to calculate the speed at which the black shadow dissipated just now, and calculated the safe distance from it. While calculating, she took two consecutive steps forward and approached Yue Lai.

Although they are not from the same camp, but the darkness is outside at this time, the Black Widow can't help but move closer to this fellow who was once evaluated as "very strong" by Tang Zhao.

Perhaps among them, the Black Widow lost her most reliable companion and had not yet re-entered her old solitary state. She couldn't help asking Yue Lai like she asked Tang Zhao: "What the hell was that just now? No. Like a phantom, like a monster born from the shadows."

Yue Lai frowned and said, "How do I know?" He lowered his sword, and pulled out a lantern with his backhand, holding it in his hand like a sharp sword.This action is very similar to that of a child picking up branches as weapons and playing war games, but his expression is serious, obviously he really regards the mere half-foot-long lamp tube with no sharp edge as a sharp sword for self-defense.

The black widow barely hesitated, and pulled out a lantern in her hand to protect herself.

She guessed that although Yue Lai really didn't know this kind of monster, but the black shadow just now had bullied Yue Lai, and Yue Lai slashed with a real knife and gun. The two sides had already fought, and Yue Lai probably found the sword weapon. It can't hurt the shadow, and holding a sharp sword is no different from bare hands. It's better to pull out a hand lamp that can clearly dispel the darkness for self-defense.

The two each pulled out a lamp tube, although there were many lamp tubes underneath, there was a gap in the formation, and it was inevitable that there would be shadows within the light range.Naturally, the black widow could not be negligent, and moved some of the lamp tubes, so as to maintain her warm and bright isolated island.

She was moving, and Xiao Xiaoyun Island was in a trance, when suddenly she heard a roar——

The black widow froze and raised her head in bewilderment, only to see a big square face protruding from the darkness.

If that face had been shrunk dozens of times, it might still have regular features, but at this moment, that face was about the size of a Buddha's head on a mountain, and every feature could be called a "giant". A smoke-like shadow, and under the light, the shadow quickly disintegrates and shatters, as if a living face has been splashed with strong acid, festering and falling off, and it is extremely terrifying under the trance light.

Under the crumbling light, that big face opened its mouth ferociously, and rushed towards...

The Shangguan swordsman who is still hanging in the air!
