Onmyoji's Secret

Chapter 169 But Evil
"Repel evil, but ward off evil spirits, demons and demons will fall when they see it!"

I looked at the two bird seals on the ancient sword and said silently.After seeing the sun-covering sword handed down by Chen Shengzhi, I was very interested in the legendary Eight Swords of the King of Yue, so I specifically asked Master about the origin of these eight swords. The writing method was also memorized.It's just that I didn't expect the accidental interest back then to be useful today.

This Quexie sword is the same as the Chen family's Hiding Sun Sword. According to ancient records, it was made by Goujian, King of Yue, who used white cows and white horses to sacrifice to the mountain gods in Kunwu Mountain. Each of the swords has its own magical effect, and among them, the Quxie sword has the ability to subdue demons, and it has miraculous effects on things such as mountain spirits, wild monsters and evil spirits, but it is the same as the other seven swords, and it is only in ancient books. They appeared in the world, but no one knew their whereabouts. I didn't expect that I would see this divine sword here today.

The Que Xie sword was red from the blade to the hilt. Under the light of the stars and the moon, strands of dazzling brilliance flowed on the sword, looking sacred and majestic, completely incomparable with the dilapidated appearance covered in copper rust before.

My throat rolled, looking at the sword in front of me, I felt a little hot.This is a legendary sword that has been passed down through the ages. If I say that I am not moved, I would be lying.I have not only seen the Hidden Sun Sword, which is as famous as this Quexie, but also drawn it myself.I still remember that day in my grandfather's house, when I took out the sun-shielding sword from the white-scaled scabbard.And in the subsequent battle between Grandpa and Bai Fei, the Hiding Sun Sword also shined brilliantly, and the unusually strong white scales were like flimsy paper sticks under the sword, which was hard to resist.

Zheri is so powerful, so what about this Quexie sword that is as famous as him?
A trace of greed welled up in my heart, and I was about to reach out to grab the hilt of Que Xie's sword.

"Are you going to pull it out?" A faint voice came into my ears, and my heart was shocked suddenly, and my mind was cleared up, and the greed just now was expelled by me without a trace.I turned my head and saw that Xueer was hovering in mid-air and staring at me blankly.

I bit my lip, and being surprised by Xueer, a question suddenly came to my mind.The countless stone pillars around here were arranged with great effort, and the extremely precious Quexie sword was placed here as the eye of the formation, which is enough to show that the stone formation definitely has an extraordinary effect, and it can even make the formation setter pay An Excalibur as the price.There shouldn't be any problems if I draw the sword so recklessly.

And I thought that the reason why the strange birds made of countless locusts lingered outside the forest and did not dare to come in might be related to this stone formation.If I pull out this evil sword rashly and break the formation, not to mention the other consequences that may be caused, just the countless locusts rushing over, then I will definitely not be able to die again.

Just when I was so entangled in my heart, Xue'er sighed quietly again: "Why don't you pull it out."

"what?"

I was taken aback and opened my mouth wide. I don't know why Xue'er said that. Doesn't she know the possible consequences of pulling out the sword?

"Those worms and gray birds are guarding outside, even if they dare not come in, you also dare not go out. If this continues, it won't take long for you to be trapped here alive." Xue'er looked at me , with a look of hating iron but not steel.

I feel like laughing, it's really funny to be looked at by a three or four year old girl doll like this.But what she said also made sense.There is no life in this forest except for the trees. As long as those locusts stay outside for a few days, I will be starved to death inside, and there is no chance to resist.It's better to take this opportunity to give it a go, but the evil sword has the effect of restraining strange birds, maybe it also has the effect of restraining those weird locusts, at least this is a glimmer of hope.As for the possible consequences after pulling out the sword, if I don't pull it out, then I will really die. At this time, who cares so much.

As soon as I thought of it, I rubbed my hands together excitedly, and touched the exposed hilt.

It was icy cold, and a faint chill spread through my whole body through the hilt, which instantly lifted my spirits.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and a series of loud noises sounded around me, and then in the next second I felt a strong wind blowing behind me, and something attacked me.

My heart trembled, and I couldn't help thinking about it at the moment, I withdrew my hand from touching the hilt of the sword, rolled on the spot, and avoided the attack behind me.

"boom!"

The place where I was just now was hit by a stone sword, making a loud noise.But the ground of the altar is not known what kind of material it is made of. Under such a terrifying force, not only did it not suffer any damage, even the runes on it did not change in any way.

As soon as I got up from the ground, two strong winds hit me again, scaring me to jump to the side, and then escaped the attack.I took this opportunity to see clearly that the attackers who shot at me turned out to be the four statues of generals who had been standing still. Their eyes were shining with dazzling red light at this moment, and they were slashing at me with the stone sword in their hands.

I cursed in a low voice, just now I had been wondering what the purpose of these four statues was, but I didn't expect that they were the guardians of this evil sword.

"This scene is so familiar." Xue'er quietly suspended outside the altar, looking at me with a little confusion on her lovely face.

But I don't care about her at all at the moment, after dodging several stone carving attacks in embarrassment.I was also annoyed, I sideways avoided a stone sword's slash, and at the same time I circled behind a stone sculpture, clenched my right hand and mustered all the strength in my body to slam the stone sculpture's head.

boom!
After a loud explosion, the head of the stone sculpture was blasted by me, and the stone body fell to the ground, but at the same time, my right hand was also swollen, and my fist was red and swollen.

Whoosh!
I lowered my head to avoid a stone sword cutting towards my head, and at the same time rushed towards the Que Xie sword in the middle.

These stones are too strong, and it is really a disadvantage to fight against them empty-handed.

I took a few strides to avoid the stone sculpture that was attacking me, and rushed directly to Que Xiejian.I narrowed my eyes, and held my right hand on the hilt of the sword.I let out a loud shout, and with great force in my hand, I pulled out the ancient sword that had been buried in the altar.

Keng!
The clear and crisp sound of the sword resounded incessantly.A dazzling cold light flashed across the scarlet sword, like a nine-day thunder piercing through the void.

Holding the Que Xie sword in my hand, feeling the coolness coming from the hilt of the sword, I couldn't help feeling a surge of pride in my heart.However, after I pulled out the Quexie sword, the entire formation unexpectedly did not experience any changes. It seemed that this sword was irrelevant to the entire stone formation.

At this moment, three stone swords hit my head at the same time. The force was so powerful that if I was smashed into my body, it would probably turn into a lump of meatloaf in a blink of an eye.My heart was terrified, I lowered my body and threw myself on a stone sculpture, avoiding the attack of three stone swords, at the same time I swung my hand evilly, and a sword slashed at the stone sculpture's leg.

laugh!
An ear-piercing sound sounded, and the feet of the stone sculpture were forcibly cut off by the Que Xie sword under my force, and the whole body fell to the ground with a bang.But I couldn't help frowning, because I felt a great resistance when I cut off the legs of the stone sculpture just now, and I didn't have the expected feeling like cutting tofu.However, I changed my mind to the legend of Yue Wang's Eight Swords, and I became relieved again. Among the eight divine swords, only the Xuan Jian Sword and the True Gang Sword are the real ones that can cut gold and jade, and cut iron like mud.But the real function of this evil sword is to ward off evil spirits and subdue demons, so it is natural not to be too demanding in terms of sharpness.

Next, I cut off the head of the stone sculpture that fell on the ground, and at the same time held the Quexie sword to deal with the remaining two stone sculptures. After finding an opportunity, I smashed the two stone sculptures completely.

When all the dust settled, I let out a long breath and sat down on the ground full of gravel, feeling a little weak and exhausted.

"Xue'er, do you have any impression of this evil sword?" I raised my head and asked the little girl outside the altar.

But right after, I was stunned, because at this moment Xueer was looking at me with burning eyes, her face was covered with pear blossoms, and she murmured: "Brother Shengzhi..."

Being looked at by her like this, my scalp felt a little numb. After hesitating for a moment, I asked, "Are you okay? Did you remember something again?"

Xue'er shook her head and said softly: "No, I just watched you draw your sword just now, which made me feel very familiar, as if I had seen this scene before. Important person."

I was speechless. The person who is very important to Xueer is probably Chen Shengzhi, and I don't know what kind of relationship there is between the two of them.But looking at the confused look of the little girl in front of me, I could only sigh helplessly, suppressing some questions in my mind for the time being.

I sat on the ground, took this opportunity to rest, and inserted two fingers into the wounds on my shoulder and abdomen, carefully avoiding the large blood vessels, and pulled out the two arrowheads that had tortured me for a long time.

The bright red blood flowed down my body on the altar, and when I wasn't paying attention, they gradually seeped into the weird runes drawn on the altar...
