In the sky, dark clouds were surging like a quagmire. Huge thunders resounded throughout the fields. Lightning and thunder flashed. The originally majestic Dongyue Temple seemed like a tiny boat under the might of heaven. The sensor lights came on, and the dim light was as big as a soybean, unable to illuminate even the surrounding area.
It seemed as if there was only this thundercloud and the lightning in it between heaven and earth, as terrifying as the end of the world.
The people in the temple had already felt the natural fear of human beings, and Jie Fangcheng, who was facing the thunder, even changed into a black robe while in the air.
This robe is not ordinary clothes, it is the uniform of the underworld and has certain defensive properties.
Of course, the main reason why Jie Fangcheng changed it was that the robe was more resistant to breaking. To put it bluntly, those colorful props on his body were made of Yin energy. Not to mention that after they came into the human world, only the appearance characteristics were left, and there was no practical value at all. Just talking about the durability, it was really made of paper and would be reduced to ashes if hit once.
At this time, Jie Fangcheng's long sleeves were fluttering and his white hair was flying in the air.
He opened his eyes, one black and one white, and stared directly at the purple lightning that was striking down. It didn't matter that he didn't have a handy weapon in his hand, because "Manager Jie's Special Weapon" was not his best weapon.
Jie Fangcheng crashed straight into the purple sky thunder.
boom--
The huge shock wave seemed to shatter even the air at this moment, and it piled up like waves, sweeping away in the air.
After all, Jie Fangcheng couldn't really fly. The collision was caused by the reaction force from his kicking legs, which canceled out the thunder from the sky. Jie Fangcheng crashed into the Dongyue Temple at an even faster speed than when he came.
He is a ghost messenger and cannot be seen by living people. Ordinary tourists in the temple know nothing about it and keep asking questions such as "What happened?", "How severe is the rainstorm?" and "Can the tickets be refunded?"
The players can see it.
Although Jie Fangcheng's collision seemed quite cool, the place where he landed was like being hit by a cannonball.
You have to know that he is in the state of soul now, which will have such an impact on reality. If his body is still there, his smash would probably directly smash through the mountain.
Dust filled the air as Xie Fangcheng climbed out of the pit coughing and spitting. Before Zhang Daoan could even return his "Manager Xie's Special Gun" to him, Xie Fangcheng rushed up again.
"Brother Jie, this, this..."
Nie Shuangshuang and the others were stunned.
This is too strong!!
Only Zhang Daoan frowned.
He found that every time Jie Fangcheng bumped into him, the golden light surrounding him seemed to become dimmer.
What could resist the heavenly thunder was not Jie Fangcheng himself, but the golden light around him.
The golden light is a matter of life and death to him, the king of evil spirits. Once the golden light disappears, Jie Fangcheng, the most evil spirit among evil spirits, will next attract thunder from the sky.
By that time, without the golden light to protect his body, Jie Fangcheng would be dead.
But Xie Fangcheng himself doesn't seem to care.
His fighting style was not seen in the game before. He could basically catch up with the NPC with just one or two blows, without using any special moves at all.
Facing the thunder from the sky at this moment, Jie Fangcheng's resolute and unbridled fighting style was clearly visible. He struck deeper and deeper each time, and even ordinary tourists who were far away seemed to feel something.
"Is the rain so severe this time? Why do I feel like the whole mountain is shaking?"
Jie Fangcheng counted in his mind.
The eighth one.
Although he didn't show anything on the surface, in fact, the thunder had already struck him so hard that his soul was almost torn apart.
Nine is his limit. After all, what is here is not his real body, and the recovery speed of injuries is not that fast.
The thunderbolts became more and more fierce each time. When the eighth one struck, the earth trembled, strong winds swept, and the Dongyue Temple was in turmoil in this doomsday.
After Jie Fangcheng endured this thunder, the dark clouds in the sky rolled over, and as if they were powerless to continue, they struck down the last black and purple thunder.
Compared to the grand momentum of the first eight, the ninth one looks as gentle as a drizzle.
But Jie Fangcheng, who had experienced the same thunder tribulation a long time ago, knew very well that the last one was the most dangerous.
Jie Fangcheng held his breath and concentrated, standing in a corner away from the crowd.
The last calamity is a mental calamity. With Jie Fangcheng's current strength, it is absolutely impossible for him to take on this calamity thunder in mid-air.
Xie Fangcheng failed to survive this catastrophe and the golden light was shattered.
Fortunately, the last one is a heart calamity. Only those who face it directly know how terrifying it is. As long as Jie Fangcheng stands farther away, it won't cause too much damage to this famous scenic spot.
Although he might be struck badly, his main body is suppressed now, and the karma of the soul that has been extracted does not come from as many souls, so the mental tribulation will be a little easier to overcome.
After so many years, Jie Fangcheng has dealt with thunder a lot and is more aware of his limits.
He is now like a college student who can get 60 points in the exam. He can pass, but not much more. He just wants to achieve success by not being directly split up.
Anyway, I have come out of the game, and I am afraid I will need to recuperate for a while after this.
The black lines on Jie Fangcheng's forehead became more and more obvious, spreading all the way from his forehead, until finally even the back of his hands showed black lines of thorns and swords.
This was the proof that he was sealed. At this moment, Jie Fangcheng tried hard to mobilize his soul power from the gap in the seal. He raised his head and paid close attention to the situation of the ninth thunder tribulation.
And this time, the moment the black thunder struck, he heard a panicked scream.
"Brother Jie, be careful!!"
Before Jie Fangcheng understood where this "caution" came from, he only felt a flash of white light in the corner of his eye.
He turned his head sharply.
A beam of light, similar to the white light used in the game, came straight towards him, coming from nowhere and containing terrifying divine power.
Got to hide!
But at the same time as the white light shot over, the thunder also locked onto his position.
Under the terrifying pressure, Jie Fangcheng slowly moved half a step, but he could only move this half a step.
The black and purple thunder and the white light intertwined together. At this moment, the whole world was as bright as day and as dark as the abyss.
That's too late…
What was the origin of this white light? The person who attacked him knew him well and knew that his limit was nine thunderbolts, and he was just trying to hold on until the last one.
Although Jie Fangcheng's body is still there, once the soul that was extracted disappears, the golden light will shatter in the next moment and his soul will fly away on the spot.
Who is the opponent? How do you know him so well
It would be really pathetic if you don't even have the answer to this question before you die!
He thought so in his mind, but waiting for death was not Jie Fangcheng's style.
He condensed golden light once again, and his ghostly aura increased greatly. The black lines that sealed him all over his body sensed his increased strength and tightened immediately.
In the pitch-black doomsday, Jie Fangcheng's white hair danced wildly. He roared loudly, and a bell sound seemed to be faintly heard between heaven and earth.
And behind him, a phantom slowly emerged.
It was a black palace, square in shape, and looked like a giant coffin, but it was built in an exceptionally solemn and magnificent manner. Although it was in the shape of a coffin, there was a solemn and sacred dragon hovering on the eaves, and four divine beasts were carved on the pillars.
Right above the palace, a huge bell stood in the void, and the soul-guiding banners hanging on the four corners moved without wind.
In the middle of the palace, there is only a statue of a god, making the entire palace look like a coffin and a temple.
The statue has its eyes closed, wears a crown, and has both hands raised flat, with a huge sword in his hands.
Under his feet, two shallow pits have formed over the years on the ground where people kneel and worship. No one can imagine how popular this coffin-like temple was in the past, and how many devout believers had to kowtow to form shallow pits on the ground in front of the statue. What kind of pious heart did the people who built this temple have to make it so sacred.
The illusion of the temple flashed by, and Jie Fangcheng was surrounded by golden light.
boom--
The white light blasted onto Zhang Daoan, and the huge divine power mixed with some strange other forces swallowed him whole.
In the white light, Zhang Daoan seemed to understand something.
He turned his head and looked at Jie Fangcheng behind him.
Everything happened unexpectedly. Jie Fangcheng's mind went blank. The thunderbolt above his head was already pouring down, but he seemed not to notice it at all. He stretched out his hand blankly, trying to grab Zhang Daoan who was blocking the white light for him.
"you… "
Under the huge impact, Zhang Daoan was like a broken mirror.
In Jie Fangcheng's eyes, everything before him was like a slow-motion shot, each frame was slow and sharp, piercing straight into his eyes.
Zhang Daoan seemed to say something to Jie Fangcheng, but he only had time to give a soothing smile. The next second, in the white light, Zhang Daoan's soul shattered, like a disappearing nebula, scattered in the dark universe.
Zhang Daoan...!
Boom——
Thunder strikes.
"Brother Jie!!"
Everything happened too fast and too suddenly. Nie Shuangshuang and others originally stood far away. Firstly, ghosts are naturally afraid of thunder and lightning, and secondly, they were worried that they would delay Fang Cheng's ability to resist the thunder calamity.
Only Zhang Daoan was looking around vigilantly.
Although he had lost his memory, Jie Fangcheng had already told him a lot of information about this copy on the way.
Another figure of Zhang Daoan once appeared in Jie Fangcheng's "dream", reminding him to "be careful of Ji Ge".
Although after Ji Chaoyang appeared, it seemed to prove that this "Be Careful Ji Ge" was just a cover, a trick to confuse Jie Fangcheng... but it was not right.
Because this section does not have any substantial effect, Jie Fangcheng later experiences repeated changes of truth and falsehood, which can confuse him.
We haven't even entered the temple in the early stages, why is it necessary to do this
It's so disjointed and so strange.
Zhang Daoan had a guess in his mind, perhaps this "Be careful Ji Ge" was indeed someone warning him, but was later discovered by Ji Chaoyang, who took advantage of the situation to cover it up.
However, they have not seen Ji Ge since they entered the dungeon and left it.
Be careful Ji Ge, you don't have enough authority...
Permission? That's more like gaming parlance.
Is the "Zhang Daoan" who once appeared in Jie Fangcheng's dream a player
What we know now is too little, and Zhang Daoan has no way to make any inferences.
But he knew very well that every second would be dangerous until the biggest mastermind behind the game was caught.
When Lang Gu suddenly rebelled, Jie Fangcheng had no choice but to disperse the golden light. Now, Jie Fangcheng was going to withstand the thunder, and Zhang Daoan was already on high alert.
All the people behind the scenes did was aimed at his reconciliation with Fang Cheng.
Zhang Daoan was not very clear about Jie Fangcheng's strength, but the other party had been planning for such a long time, and a judge like Lang Gu was also well-known in the underworld. If such an important chess piece could be sacrificed, the purpose was definitely not as simple as just letting Jie Fangcheng be injured by the thunder.
They must have found a way to deal with Jie Fangcheng.
The moment the white light appeared, Zhang Daoan didn't dare to gamble, nor did he want to gamble.
He knew very well that he probably couldn't stop anything with his own strength... But he couldn't just do nothing, right
The man with the most flexible mind but the least skilled in fighting, could only activate the giant sword that Jie Fangcheng had stuffed in his hand and try his best to block the sword in front of himself at the last moment.
Not for myself, but for... at least to help the people behind me block a little more.
He didn't know whether his actions were futile, or whether Jie Fangcheng was so powerful that he didn't need him to be a fragile shield at all.
Perhaps his sacrifice was in vain and had no effect on the outcome.
But at that moment, the most calculating person did not have the energy to calculate which weight was heavier on the two sides of the scale, and whether this block could play the greatest role.
It was more like an instinct when he rushed out.
I just don't know... if this can help him a little.
dusty.
After the thunderbolt struck, the dust it raised covered everything.
Nie Shuangshuang and the others couldn't see the scene clearly in the dust, and tried to move forward anxiously, but a dangerous aura emanated from the dust, preventing them from moving.
Yu Yizhou was the strongest, and he could barely see a shadow in the dust.
"Brother Jie...?"
The clouds rolled, but the lightning no longer flashed.
However, strong winds were blowing all around, the soybean-sized street lamps shattered, and the withered trees were blown down by the wind. It seemed that something terrible was about to appear.
Amid the swirling dust, a human figure finally slowly emerged.
It seemed to be Jie Fangcheng, but it also seemed not to be him.
He was still wearing the black uniform of the underworld, his white hair was tied up with a black headband, his eyes were one black and one white, and the giant sword was thrown at his feet, but he did not look down.
Having just experienced a thunder tribulation, Jie Fangcheng had blood at the corners of his mouth and his condition was not very good.
He looked in the direction where the white light came from with a grim gaze.
The next second, Jie Fangcheng reached out his hand—
Boom——
When the bell rang, all the evil spirits in the wild raised their heads and knelt down to worship Dong Yue from afar.
In the dark palace behind Jie Fangcheng, the god with his eyes closed seemed to be about to wake up.
At this moment, the chains that were originally hidden around the statue began to appear. Two white chains hanging from the sky were firmly clasped on his shoulder blades, and two black chains that seemed to sink into the underworld were tightly locked around his ankles.
Jie Fangcheng of the Dongyue Temple also seemed to be wearing handcuffs. When he walked forward, the sound of chains dragging on the ground and the sound of mountains shaking were intertwined.
In the sky, the thunderclouds that were about to disperse gathered together again, and under the Nine Heavens Underworld, thousands of ghosts wailed.
Jie Fangcheng ignored it and just stared at the direction where the white light came from.
The next second, he took out the giant sword placed in the hands of the statue from the void.
The black lines and chains tried to trap him back, but only made a futile "clang" sound.
But inside the palace behind Jie Fangcheng, the statue opened its eyes.
"Brother Jie..."
Jie Fangcheng said nothing, holding the huge sword in his hand, and walked straight towards the direction where the white light came from.
