82 Li Chu’s sword is broken

The clouds were deep and the moon was light. The night was dark and the wind was strong.

It was a very suitable night for a ghost.

On the mountain of white bones, the sound of the wind was like the wailing of evil spirits, and the shadows of the trees in the distance were like Yakshas.

It was a very suitable place for haunting.

Coupled with the bloody rumors that had once spread here.

It could be said that if this place was not haunted, everyone would be very disappointed.

In such a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, a young and strong donkey that was out of place broke into the picture.

On the back of the donkey, there was a little Daoist priest who was even more out of place.

He was so handsome that the atmosphere around him suddenly didn’t seem so scary.

At most, she would be so frightened that she would want to jump into his arms.

The donkey came to the entrance of the corpse cave. It seemed to have noticed something and began to feel uneasy. It stomped on the ground and refused to take another step forward.

Li Chu got off his donkey and patted its head. “Many thanks.”

The green donkey let out two ‘ang’ sounds, which probably meant,’I can’t stay here for long. I’ll wait for you at the foot of the mountain.’

Li Chu nodded and turned to leave.

As for the donkey’s meaning, he didn’t understand at all.

It would be weird if he could understand, Yingluo.

After bidding farewell to his Mount, he came to the entrance of the cave. It was pitch black inside, with only a faint, almost non-existent moonlight leading the way.

They didn’t know who the enemy was, what the situation was like in the cave, and what they were up to.

Despite Li Chu’s cautious nature, he had never thought of retreating.

Since the other party was coming for him, he should bear everything. Implicating an innocent woman was definitely not a moral thing to do.

Ghosts didn’t talk about morality, but humans did.

He took a deep breath and stepped into the cave.

Every man would have to do that once in his life. On a quiet night, he barged into a dark cave alone. He had to use all of his perseverance to break through the obstacles and save the girl who was suffering.

……

As he walked in the stone cave, his footsteps made a cracking sound that reverberated far away.

There was no Yin Qi in the hidden corpse cave.

But this was the strangest thing.

Normally, even if there was no evil, there should be some Yin Qi in such a barren mountain cave.

Not to mention that there were thousands of corpses buried in this cave.

It was already very difficult to see with the naked eye in the spacious and deep cave. Li Chu closed his eyes and used his mind’s eye to observe everything as he entered the cave.

Suddenly, a 3D map of the entire cave appeared in his mind.

So it turns out that

At the end of the cave, there was an open space. All the yin Qi of the mountain was gathered there.

It was so thick that it almost condensed into a substance!

It was as if there was some kind of power suppressing all the yin Qi here. From the perspective of the heart’s eye, it was simply terrifying.

At the edge of the yin Qi, there was a weak aura. It was Gongsun Rou.

The other two cold existences should be white bones and Painted Skin.

However, in the center of the endless Yin Qi, there was another existence.

It was very fleeting, as if it was everywhere, yet also seemed to be faintly discernible.

Li Chu calculated in his heart and did not stop walking. Although the cave was long, they soon reached the deepest part.

There was another layer of cave entrance here. After passing through it, it was an open space at the end of the corpse cave.

There was a sword stuck in the ground ten meters in front of the cave.

The blade was simple and rusty, as if it was just a piece of useless scrap metal.

However, under the heart’s eye, there was sword Qi that was like a dragon!

It was this sword that had blocked all the yin Qi here!

This was its square sword domain.

The sword intent of this sword seemed to have locked onto the hidden existence at the end of the cave. Other than that, it could not enter or exit.

If Jiang shouyin was here, he would definitely recognize that this was the divine ability of the shenxu temple, the sword domain seal.

Back then, Reverend Fu Yuan had exchanged his own pure yang sword intent with Reverend Shouyi.

Li Chu strode over and made a mental note.

There was a sword here.

It looks like it’s worth a lot of money, Yingluo.

As soon as he entered the cave, Li Chu saw Gongsun Rou.

She was not far from the entrance of the cave, tied up by a circle of black things that looked like hair, but were too long to break free.

The woman in red beside him was miss Bai Ling whom he had saved a few days ago.

“Little Daoist priest li, please!”

With the help of a faint light, Gongsun Rou saw Li Chu enter and immediately called out.

Li Chu nodded at her.

Immediately after, he heard the sound of metal rubbing against metal.

He asked and Li Chu answered.

“You’re here?”

“I’m coming.”

“I knew you would come.”

“Of course I’ll come.”

“But you shouldn’t have come.”

“But I still came.”

“If you come, you must die!”

“You shut up!” This time, it was not Li Chu who answered him. Instead, it was the voice of the hidden existence in the deepest part of the room that rudely interrupted Bai Jian’s forced act.

“Oh.” Bai Jian obediently closed her jaw.

Li Chu looked in the direction of the sound, but he could not see through the thick darkness. Using his heart’s eye, what he felt was a strong sense of resentment!

“You two, go out and guard the entrance. Don’t let anyone in or escape.”

The voice rang out again, slow and cold, like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.

Bai Jian and Hong Ling accepted the order and left.

……

As the sound of their footsteps gradually faded, Gongsun Rou was so nervous that she didn’t dare to make a sound. Li Chu stood quietly in place, as if he was confronting an existence in the darkness.

actually, I’m very curious about you. Earlier, my subordinates said that you were very strong, but I didn’t think much of it. You’re just a young Taoist priest in your teens. Even if you’re the reincarnation of an Almighty, how strong can you be? ”

“But the moment you walked into the cave, I was really curious. It’s because I can’t see through your strength.”

but I can see the remnant soul. I can see that there is still a trace of the powerful dark soul left in your body. The original strength of this remnant soul was almost comparable to when I was at my weakest.

“Hehe, I’m sure you’ve experienced a life and death battle in the past two days.”

The voice in the dark spoke sentence after sentence.

“Indeed,” Li Chu nodded.

Even now, he still felt a lingering fear when he recalled the short but intense fight with the Jade Lynx.

“I respect the strong.” “If you’re willing to stop causing trouble for my men and let them collect their life silver safely, I can let you take this little girl away,” the voice continued.

Li Chu was expressionless. if you’re saying that you’re going to collect life silver at the cost of the lives of innocent people, then I’m afraid I can’t agree to that. Not only that, I’m afraid I’ll have to get rid of you first.”

Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chu slowly pulled out his sword and stood upright.

“Harm? Hehe, no, no, no. ” “You seem to have some misunderstanding about us,” the voice suddenly laughed.

“Life silver can’t be obtained by force. All those who turn their lifespan into life silver are willing. They harbored resentment in their hearts, and they couldn’t take revenge. At this time, we will give them a chance to take revenge.”

this is a fair trade. It’s even a waste to them.

“This is a blessing,”

Li Chu muttered to himself.

I’m a timid person, ” he said slowly. there are many things I want to do, but most of the time, I’m just thinking about it.

that’s why I can understand a lot of people. They might have some extreme thoughts because of a moment of anger, and they might even be willing to destroy themselves to achieve their goals.

but usually, no one would really do that. It’s just like looking down from the edge of a cliff. One would always stop.

your appearance at this time is no different from pushing people into the abyss, and there will be no chance of return.

“This is obviously wrong.”

His tone was steady and firm.

“Return to the capital?” The voice interrupted him abruptly, accompanied by an ear-piercing sneer. “Hehe, extremely childish.”

“I know the origin of every silver of life. You say Xuanji, the eldest lady of the Xue family. She was the first wife who accompanied her husband through thick and thin, and they had made an agreement in the early years to stay together for a lifetime. However, Qianqian had a change of heart when she was old and her husband became rich. She even wanted her to die.”

on the night her husband married the beautiful woman, she was heartbroken in the cold side courtyard.

“At that time, did you teach her how to reply to the Emperor?”

and that poor little girl. She was almost raped by her non-blood brother. After the matter was exposed, that little bastard pushed her down the cliff.

if it wasn’t for my subordinates who gave her the chance to take revenge, she wouldn’t have died. Instead, she would have been paralyzed and watched her mother continue to be bullied, unable to fight back.

“When that time comes, will you teach her how to reply to the Gu?”

“If we didn’t appear, who would give them the chance to uphold justice? Is that you? Or other Daoist priests, monks, xiuzhe, or government officials? who else would appear in the vast human world?”

“I don’t know.” Li Chu answered honestly.

“What?”

The voice seemed to be shocked by his calmness.

Li Chu continued, ” humans were originally just a kind of beast. Even after thousands of years, they are only moving closer to civilization. There is still a long way to go, or perhaps they will never be able to reach it.

there are indeed places in the mortal world where the sun can’t reach. The injustice, injustice, and sin in the darkness may exist forever.

“Humans created laws, but the laws can’t cover all aspects. Perhaps there should be an external power to fill these gaps.”

“I still don’t know what this power is.”

however, I’m sure that what you’re doing is not the right way.

“This will only cause greater hatred and darkness.”

moreover, no matter how grand you say it, your only purpose is to plunder.

“The aura of resentment on your body is too heavy. Moreover, it gives me a somewhat familiar feeling. I think that you have fused that so-called life silver into your body, right?”

Li Chu opened his eyes and looked into the darkness. His gaze was like lightning.

“Hehe, you little Daoist, you’re really stubborn. Since that’s the case, I might as well let you see my true face!”

Boom–

With the ghost king’s shout, clusters of dark blue will-o’- the-wisps suddenly lit up in the cave!

It was only now that the cave revealed its true appearance to Li Chu and Gongsun Rou.

It turned out that the place they were at was covered in bones! Layer by layer, some of them had already grown in the same place as the stone cave, and they could not be discovered when they stepped on it.

At this moment, each skeleton lit up with ghost fire, and the strange blue light illuminated the surroundings!

Suddenly discovering that she was surrounded by bones, Gongsun Rou couldn’t help but let out a cry.

In the center of the cave, there was a strange figure.

The figure looked like a human with four limbs and a head, but it had no facial features, no clothes or skin. It was dark silver in color!

It was like a half-finished silver puppet.

“I’m not fusing the life silver into my body, but using this life silver with resentment to reconstruct my spirit body. As long as I’m able to completely reconstruct it, this place will no longer be able to trap me. I’ll be immortal and indestructible, surpassing my previous peak! But it’s because of you that I’ve been unable to complete it! Just because of your childish righteous path? Hehe, since you won’t listen to my advice, I can only leave you here!”

The ghost king clearly did not have a mouth on its face, but it could still make a sound. The sound still seemed far and near, and it was hard to grasp. There was anger in its voice.

It was infuriated by Li Chu.

Li Chu looked at its body and was a little angry.

He slowly raised the sword in his hand.

“It turns out that you only paid one copper coin each time, but you got such a large amount of life silver in return. Those people who made deals with you were bewitched for a moment and didn’t know how precious the things they handed over were. This is naked deception and plundering, and you still dare to call it a blessing in disguise.”

As he spoke, a stream of spiritual energy was injected into the sword.

Considering that the other party’s strength was unknown and tyrannical, the amount of spiritual power injected this time was a bit large.

“This sword of mine is for all the dead people, for the peaceful Yuhang Town, and for the peace among the people.”

The ghost king seemed to have a premonition in its heart and began to panic. The ghost flames around it suddenly flickered wildly!

It wanted to escape, but it had nowhere to run! It could not leave this place!

but …

The next second, a crisp clatter was heard.

PA.

The iron sword in Li Chu’s hand was instantly covered with cracks.

This was just an ordinary piece of metal. It had been receiving the spiritual power that he had poured into it every day, and it had long been unable to withstand the damage. In fact, Li Chu had already noticed the fatigue of the iron sword when he had been practicing the heart’s eye technique.

However, he didn’t pay much attention to it later on.

I thought that a sword’s retirement would be a gradual wear and tear.

He didn’t expect that on such an important occasion.

Suddenly, it could no longer withstand the pressure.

It shattered.

Hualalalalalalalalala

A pile of broken iron fell to the ground.

Li Chu blinked his eyes and said,”Yingluo.”

He had just said such impassioned words, and when he raised his hand, he suddenly made such a scene.

Hmm …

It was so awkward.
