Chapter 103 - One Sword to the Soul

A thousand strands of crimson and black poison needles, suddenly swept up, gathered in one place, suddenly formed one shape. What kind of look? The appearance of a giant scorpion!

This giant scorpion is different from the common scorpion. Although it has form and substance, it is not grown from the flesh and blood of a scorpion, but from a multitude of venomous needles. "Chirp chirp," it was the sound of the venomous needles flying and flowing on the giant scorpion.

The spell buzzed like a swarm of bees in the ancient netherworld. In an invisible way, these undulating ghostly spells seemed to secretly control the movement of the crimson Black poison needle. How strange and enigmatic the ancient blood array is, it has nothing to do with this buzzing ghost spell.

The "giant scorpions" densely covered with venomous needles moved in a very strange and dexterous manner. Two huge, red and black pincers, "click click" open and close, exhaling a dark, demonic aura, as if searching everywhere for Kellen's hidden whereabouts. The "poisonous scorpion" ran so fast that it seemed to really catch up with Kellen. Just looking at the poisonous Scorpion, it had already run three laps back and forth in the vast courtyard.

The huge, red-black pincers suddenly turned into two strange whirlwinds, whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh, and rolled out. Sure enough, a greenish-blue sword shadow roared through the wind. The two whirlwind of poison needles spewed out by the pincers hit the greenish shadow of the demonic sword, and the golden sound "鏮鏮" shone brightly. Four and a half pieces of fiery gold stars were scattered everywhere.

The venomous needle spewed from the pincers seemed unable to contain the huge sword energy of the Demon sword. Just look at a blue light sword, several feet high and tens of feet long, suddenly condensing. Where the Qi sword strikes, the glow of the sun shines brightly, peaceful and exquisite. How could the huge pincers resist?

Just as the female demon said earlier, the demon-slaying sword is a divine artifact of the celestial realm, a supreme magic weapon that only the highest immortal can hold. So Kellen may not know exactly what kind of divine artifact the Demon-Slaying Sword is. But if the power of this sword could be fully exerted, it might be more mysterious than Kellen imagined.

A pair of giant "pincers" burst apart in the glow of the dawn, the colossal green air sword, like the fangs of a green dragon, but with a light bite, the "pincers" vanished. The gurgling sound echoed through the vast courtyard. It seems that a sword of qi was struck too quickly, and the afterglow of the sky made the sword of qi shine brightly.

"Scorpion" did not see Kellen's man, but Kellen's sword was probably something he would never forget for the rest of his life. "Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish," Scorpion had shifted his form behind the sword of Annihilation. A long dragon snake venom hook, sizzling and spraying like rain of venom. The venom, reddish-black 漭漭, coiled like a dragon or snake, seemed to strangle the invisible Kellen.

The sasa sound of the venom flowing was unusually tight. The huge python formed by the red-black venom was formed on the tip of the venom hook. The python was as black as ink, with a demonic air, and its three-zhang-long venom siss. Kellen suddenly thought of the Nine Spirits, who, if they were present, would not have done anything to Kellen. The Nine Spirits would have been enough to destroy the poisonous python.

The twisted body of the venomous python seemed to be very powerful, and there was a faint creaking sound of its bones. If the venomous python had flesh and bones, it would not be surprising to hear the faint sounds of the bones and tendons. But this venomous snake is nothing but the venom on the hook of a "poisonous scorpion". How could there be any flesh and blood? No bones at all! If there are no bones, why do you make such crackling sounds?

It's strange and eerie!

Kellen had no time to look around, for the python, which had no eyes, was very precise in identifying her position. Every time the snake's head suddenly attacked, it was either on Kellen's chest or her face. The hissing snakehead does not spit out venom, but rather tiny streaks of venomous needles!

If the stinger were to strike someone, it would probably be instantly reduced to ashes and death from the venom. But for Kellen, it was completely useless. Because Kellen was hidden. The venomous needle pierced through her body, into the air, and had no effect at all, let alone hurt her slightest bit.

"Ah --" With a long stegosaurus roar, a venomous python that had coiled and flown was cut into several pieces by the several-foot-wide qi sword of the Demon Slaying Sword. The rosy glow of the demonic energy was scattered all at once. The peaceful sword flashed with green light, and the poisonous python flew with ashes. Countless strands of poison needles were struck with a crisp "喯喯" by the huge qi sword. A long chain of poison hooks had already vanished without a sound.

No matter how great the Washing-Spirit Hall is, it is not the sky and the void. There is always an end to it. Where else can one escape to? "Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh" No more poisonous moves could be seen from the "poisonous scorpion", only a deep red glow of blood could be seen spreading widely.

How could this demon run wild with the massive energy of the demon-slaying sword? "Ang --" Another long roar of the sword dragon, as if the green dragon's food, the divine dragon's teeth fell. The blazing rays of the sun, accompanied by the mighty sword like the fangs of the dragon, came down with a swing, and the green light was brilliant. "Squeak, squeak," a deafening sound of bones breaking, shattering with a crash. A thick mass of demonic energy was instantly dispersed and immediately turned into a storm of blood and wind, which filled the entire hall again and restored the original appearance of the ancient array of blood. But the hermaphroditic mistlehead corpse was nowhere to be found.

"Demoness! Come out of here!" The sword was half-suspended in the air, but Kellen's men did not show up, but the voice echoed for a long time, "... Come out... Come out..."

"Hahaha..." A strange laugh in a yin-yang tone, seemingly interspersed with wheezing. "Little brat! You... Hehe... Swordsmanship is good... Compared to that old man... HMPH... Brilliant! Just... Among the five Guardian deities... You're not there, are you?"

Kellen identified her position by the sound, but she couldn't determine the direction her sword was pointing. Because the trembling voice of the demon echoed throughout the hall, almost everywhere, and it was impossible to see exactly where the demon was standing, or rather, where it was floating. All that could be seen before the eyes was a vast rain of blood, a vast rain of blood.

"Kellen, don't look! That demon has turned into ten thousand drops of blood and spilled all over the ancient array." Diting was already full of energy, and it seemed that the blood poison was almost exhausted.

"Hehe... Still listen with insight... Unlike that old man who plays with fire... No, old! ... Hehe... It's time for the five guardian deities to retire... Look at this little fellow's swordsmanship... Hehe... I don't know how much smarter it is than you old man..." The strange tremors of Yin and Yang, mingled with the sometimes tight and sometimes slow ghostly incantations, buzzed non-stop in the hall.

"Yaos! Take your life!" The Fire Root Ancestor shouted, and a deluge of Taiji Bagua Lihuo seals broke through the divine fire shield, as if to sweep through the bloody storm in the entire hall. The sasa blood rain, pouring down on the great seal of fire, is like pouring water over a fire that has already burned red. "Sizzling" black smoke, drop by drop of blood rain turned to ashes in the great seal of fire.

"Ha ha ha... Old man, can't stand it anymore? How could you break through this bloodthirsty array just by charging at it? You are too contemptuous of the ten wonders of the Bloodthirsty Sect! Hahaha... How are you feeling now? Is it a bit like the gnawing of ten thousand ants, the sting of a poisonous bee or scorpion? It's okay. Just wait a little while. Even the gods, demons and immortals who have practiced for ten thousand years may not escape the gnawing of blood poison. But after being reduced to ashes, who remembers the pain of being alive? Ah? Ha ha ha..."

One by one, the harsh words of Yin and Yang, like poisonous arrows piercing through the heart and lungs, deeply pierced the heart of the Fire Root Ancestor. Even though he was highly accomplished, how could he have suffered such an insult? He was about to explode with rage, "Wow!" and slapped dozens of palms in succession, but it was of no use.

The ghostly curse, accompanied by the sasa blood rain, trickled down. It won't stop at all, and the rain won't break. There is no doubt that there is another force that is constantly supplying the poisonous blood in the ancient array of evil blood. So much so that the Fire Root Ancestor's dozens of fire nets were wrapped up in clusters, and the rain did not cease at all. Not only that, but even if Kellen's demon-slaying sword were to act, how could it cut off this continuous rain like a curtain of pearls?

The Fire Root Ancestor gave a cold "Humph!" He floated into the firelight shield again and said, "Wind, come here!"

The word "wind" was, of course, referring to Kellen. Kellen was stunned for a moment and felt that the word "wind" was like a grandfather's affection for his children and grandchildren, and the distance between them was drawn even closer.

Kellen stammered, "Alas." Then he appeared, drawing his sword and flying towards the firelight shield.

"What? Have you two old bones figured out a way to break the formation?" With a sarcastic tone, the spirit lingers.

With a cold "snort" from the Fire Root ancestor, there was no further response.

In the divine fire shield, a white, shiny Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams black seal had already opened, and the Listening Lord closed his eyes slightly on the black seal. The Fire Root Ancestor had already sat down and closed his eyes. Kellen, seeing this, did not ask, sat down quietly and slowly closed her eyes. Just as she closed her eyes, her primordial spirit left her body...

Kellen saw that the place where she sat cross-legged was actually a huge diagram of Tai Chi Yin and Yang. The Eight Trigrams in the directions of Qian South, Kun north, Li East, Kan West, Dui southeast, Zhen Northeast, Xun southwest, Gen northwest, shine with a brilliant white light. The light rose up to the sky and surrounded Diting, Kellen, and the Fire Root ancestor in the center.

"Wind, there's no need to look. We're already in Diting's mind now." "Listen, it's up to you to talk about this matter," said the Fire Root Ancestor.

"Well," Di Ting nodded and said, "This time the Bloodthirsty ancient array is different from before. The mistlehead corpse that cast the spell is both a ghost and a demon! The evil spell of the array is also very ingenious. In the past, the four ghosts in the four directions of east, west, south and north were placed in the four corners of the ancient formation. But this great hall for washing spirits has four small halls and pavilions around the eaves.

Undoubtedly, these four ghosts are respectively hiding in those four small halls and pavilions to keep watch. The directions have been muddied by these four ghosts. The key to breaking the array is to find the directions of Gan South, Kun north, Li East, Kan West, Dui southeast, Zhen Northeast, Xun southwest, Gen Northwest, and destroy them one by one from south to north. To destroy the four demons, the Sword of Annihilation is sufficient, and without it, it is enough!

Because these four demons are in possession of the ancient array curse and their own magic, they should be far inferior to the mistake-headed demon. If it weren't for the protection of the ancient array, the demon would have died more than ten thousand times under the sword of annihilation!"

"But the position has been disrupted. How can it be found? If you can't find the south, how can you find the north? If you kill in the wrong direction, won't it cause trouble?" "Asked Kellen.

"Not bad." "Listen carefully to the words, we don't have much time left!" said the Fire Root ancestor.

Diting continued, "I use the fire of the dark Yin to sacrifice the Yin, and the primordial fire of the Fire Root is sufficient to sacrifice the Yin. When the eight divine seals are formed, it will be easy to find the eight directions: south of Qian, north of Kun, east of Li, west of Kan, southeast of Dui, northeast of Zhen, southwest of Xun, northwest of Gen.

At this point, Kellen can use the Magic Sword to break the four directions, eliminate the four demons, and break the ancient curse. When the spell is extinguished, the mistlehead demon becomes a kite with a broken string. At that time, the Fire Root Ancestor and I could subdue the demon with just a light hand. Only..."

"Just what?" "Asked Kellen.

"It's just that my and my Fire Root ancestor's poison hasn't been completely eliminated. I'm afraid it won't last much time..." Just as Diting had said this, Kellen immediately said:

"Is the blink of an eye enough?"

"Enough!" Listen carefully.

"Good! Trust me, there's a way!" Kellen's words were so serious that no one could question them.

"I believe you!" "Listen with certainty. Because when Kellen first came to the Gates of the Dead, she was in an equally spacious Nine Netherworld hall, the one where she had destroyed the statue of the black and powerful Demon Lord. When Kellen saw the table covered with the corpses of infants that had been gnawed by demons and ghosts, when Kellen saw Diting and Ningxiang tied up by demons and ghosts, when Kellen's hatred of evil rose...

"Whoosh --" A long whistling sound of the wind, a flash of golden light, a streak of green light, and a cloud of mist in the hall.

At that moment, it was also Kellen, it was also this green lightening demonic sword, in the blink of an eye, one strike to the soul!

So when Kellen was so determined to respond to this matter, it was already known that breaking through the Bloodthirsty ancient array was almost certain to succeed!
