Chapter 439 Instinct Awakens
The snow girl reacts extremely quickly.
When these dozen flying swords were piercing towards Gu Xu, several ice shields immediately appeared around her.
With a clanging sound, the flying sword hit the ice shield heavily, and then fell feebly from the air.
But the real killer move of the saints is obviously still hidden behind.
In this flash of lightning, countless complex runes appeared out of thin air around the two of them, suspended in the air, shining with dazzling light.
As Da Qi Imperial Master waved his hand gently.
These runes began to spin rapidly, enveloping the surrounding light and heat, forming a huge and terrifying vortex.
Gu Xu and Xue Nu clearly felt that the true energy in their bodies began to continuously drain away, being swallowed up by this vortex and turned into fertilizer that nourished its ever-expanding.
Gu Xu took a deep breath and once again used the "Firefly Flame" that broke all laws.
Dots of fireflies appeared again.
Like a moth flying into a flame, he rushed into the whirlpool of runes without hesitation.
The speed of the vortex rotation did slow down slightly.
But compared with the mighty Saint's true energy, which is as vast and majestic as the sea, the light of the fireflies is still too weak, like a drop in the bucket, unable to fundamentally reverse the situation of the battle.
At the same time, the Zen staff in Master Jueming’s hand suddenly disappeared.
Before anyone could react, they had already passed through the heavy defenses set up by the snow girl and appeared behind Gu Xu.
It is recorded in ancient books: "If you can't stop sleeping, the Buddha said: Listen and use a Zen stick."
In Buddhism, the original use of the Zen stick was not a weapon, but a kind of meditation stick. Tools for sleeping. Touching the Zen person with the "Zen rod" will not cause any pain, but it can revive the person's spirit and prevent him from falling asleep.
However, when the true power of a strong saint is attached to the Zen staff, it becomes a powerful weapon that can easily kill people.
"So this is the real killer move prepared by the saints of Daqi for me!" Gu Xu thought to himself.
Gu Xu is not afraid of huge and complicated spells, but is afraid of simple and crude attacks - an assassin like Zhu Qiuyi who has mastered the magical power of "Chasing the Wind" is very restrained.
After the battle in Jingxing, Princess Zhaoning should also know this very well.
At this critical moment, he endured the severe pain in his head, held the astrolabe tightly, poured out all his true energy, and exerted the power of "Qian Kun".
Black space cracks reappeared.
He tried to distort the space and change the direction of the Zen staff's flight in order to avoid this fatal blow.
But every strong saint has a deep understanding of the laws of space after all.
The Zen staff was like a light and agile swallow. It turned a few turns and bypassed the dense cracks in space, and hit Gu Xu accurately on the back of the head.
Knocked several times in succession.
A deafening tremor echoed through his mind.
Gu Xu's eyes darkened and he completely lost consciousness.
The whole figure was like a kite with its string broken, falling rapidly towards the earth.
On his wrist, a bracelet made of black jade suddenly cracked into countless pieces.
This scene fell into the eyes of the snow girl.
She no longer has to tangle with the national master who manipulates the talisman.
She turned into a white lightning and appeared next to Gu Xu, holding his back with one hand and the crook of his leg with the other, holding him firmly in a "princess hug" posture. Lived him.
At this moment, she clearly felt Gu Xu's weak breathing and heartbeat - like a candle in the autumn wind, which might be extinguished at any time.
She didn’t know the name of the ink jade bracelet on Gu Xu’s wrist.
But she could sense that if the bracelet hadn't blocked the fatal blow for him, he might have died long ago.
The snow girl narrowed her eyes.
She didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment. Ever since she became a ghost, her emotions have been like a snow-capped mountain that remains unchanged all year round. No matter what happens in the outside world, she is like an indifferent and distant bystander, without any fluctuations.
But now, there is an avalanche in this snow mountain.
Her heart had obviously stopped beating long ago.
But now, she felt waves in her chest and blood rushing.
Human life is really fragile.
Less than an hour ago, the young master was sitting in the restaurant in Longzhou City, joking with her.
But now he is as motionless as a corpse.
She remembered a sentence she saw in a storybook a long time ago: "I could have endured the darkness, if I had never seen the light."
If he had not rushed into her life , wake her up from her deep sleep, then she should still be like an ice sculpture, staying on the top of Yishan without any trouble.
No expectations and no worries.
But he took her away from the snow-capped mountains and allowed her to see the bustle and prosperity of the world.
Her black and white life - no, ghost life, has added a bit of bright color.
The life she was used to living alone on the top of a mountain suddenly became boring and boring, making her tired of it.
"Don't die," she looked at Gu Xu in her arms, looking at his pale face under the black mask, and whispered over and over again, "Don't die, don't die..."
Her whisper was like a powerful spell.
In an instant, within a few miles, the temperature dropped sharply, and dripping water turned into ice.
The chasing monks around them all turned into pale ice sculptures before they could react.
Then with a clicking sound, it fell apart, turned into flying snow, and ceased to exist.
And their souls, pulled by an invisible force, poured into her body and became her food.
Or, fuel.
After Gu Xu passed out, she no longer suppressed her instincts.
As she continued to devour the souls of the monks around her, her aura rose rapidly. The power barrier that covered her appearance had long been torn to pieces by the aftermath of the power, revealing her beautiful face that did not belong to this world.
Her black hair turned into silver in the blink of an eye.
Like melted starlight, dancing in the wind, dazzling.
She finally truly became the king who dominated the land of ice and snow and wielded the power of life and death.
"Stop her quickly!" Grand Master Daqi shouted loudly.
But it was too late.
Just now, the two strong saints on the floating boat were inexplicably distracted for a moment.
When they came to their senses, all the nearby practitioners were dead, with no one left.
This moment of confusion actually led to irreversible consequences.
But they knew very well that the snow girl was not good at spiritual spells, and it was even more impossible for her to defeat the two of them instantly at the soul level, causing them to make such a serious mistake.
"Could it be that there is a powerful helper hidden behind her?" the two saints guessed in unison in their minds.
…………
At the same time.
In a teahouse in Longzhou City, an old Taoist with a white beard wearing a blue robe chuckled and put the hairpin in his hand into his sleeve.
"Everything is going according to plan," he said to the storyteller next to him, "Next, it's our turn."
