Gu Jiu's condition was fine, he just consumed too much spiritual energy.
The power contained in the Qiankun Sword Technique is infinite, but if you want to use its greatest power, you must be willing to output spiritual power. The power of the technique is determined by the output of spiritual power.
However, players have limited spiritual energy. Once it is used up, they will have no spiritual energy to support them when encountering other dangers, which can easily lead to accidents.
Players will not use up all their spiritual power unless it is absolutely necessary, and will keep some in case of accidents.
Qin Huang and his companions knew very well that Gu Jiu had used up nearly 70% of his spiritual power in that attack just now. They thought that the sword technique was powerful, but it consumed too much spiritual power. People who did not have the courage of Gu Jiu could not afford to use it.
After taking a few spiritual replenishing pills, most of Gu Jiu's spiritual power was replenished.
She looked at this group of monks. They were disciples of the Imperial Master. The oldest one looked to be in his fifties. Compared with the Imperial Master who was nearly thirty years old, he looked like an elder.
There is a master with the secret of maintaining youthfulness hanging around in front of him every day. I don’t know how the master’s disciples feel.
After treating their injuries and resting for a while, this group of people came over to thank Gu Jiu and the others.
Gu Jiu waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me, Huo Ting and I are friends, it's only natural."
Then Gu Jiu told them the same thing about the Senluo Underworld. The reaction of this group of people was similar to that of the previous cultivators. They were all extremely surprised and wanted to go back to find the Imperial Master immediately.
The affairs of the Senluo Underworld have to be negotiated by the National Master. Only the National Master can do it, no one else can do it.
The disciple of the Imperial Master could not wait any longer, so he returned to the passage between the Netherworld and the Human World and asked, "Miss Gu, how about you? Will you come back with us?"
They looked at the three-headed bird that was pecking at the dead monster's body with its hard beak not far away, and their brows couldn't help but move.
In fact, the scene where Gu Jiu and his group arrived riding on a three-headed bird was quite shocking to them.
Xiao thought that they were well-informed as they followed the national teacher, but they had never seen any monks tame Netherworld monsters as mounts, which showed the courage and strength of this group of people.
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "No, we have other things to do."
When everyone thought about the direction they had just come from, they suddenly understood something and didn't say anything else.
But they didn't expect that their junior brother would choose to go with Gu Jiu and the others.
"My fellow brothers, I still have things to do and cannot go back with you. Please give my regards to our master on my behalf." Huo Ting hesitated for a moment, but did not say anything. He just said take care to his fellow brothers.
Huo Ting had only been a disciple of the National Master for a short time, and most of the National Master's disciples held important positions in the Dragon Control Bureau. They had not spent much time with Huo Ting and did not know this junior fellow apprentice very well. When he heard what he said, he did not notice anything and told him to be careful on the road.
"Take care, everyone."
"Take care, little brother. We are leaving first."
Huo Ting stood there and watched the national master's disciples leave.
"Why, you can't bear to leave them." Qin Huang came closer. "There's nothing we can do even if we are reluctant. We are not from this world and we will always be separated." Thinking of the Taoist nuns in Qingyun Temple, he actually felt a little melancholy.
Huo Ting didn't say anything, but looked at Gu Jiu and asked, "Ajiu, where are you going?"
"Looking for the demon master." Gu Jiu smiled at him, "How did you get here?"
"The aura ahead is not right, let's come over to take a look." Huo Ting spoke the truth, which also proved the keen perception of the national teacher's disciples.
The fact that Huo Ting was accepted as a disciple by the national teacher shows that he has extraordinary strength.
But they didn't expect that they would be ambushed by the Netherworld monsters here.
Qi Qianyin and the others were not familiar with Huo Ting, and they could not help but look at him, thinking that he was indeed the partner of the eldest lady, and was equally unfathomable. If they were not mistaken, this Huo Ting was also a player who had just been promoted to the A-level field, right
Qin Huang said: "This aura should be the master of the demon."
Compared with the human world, the environment in the underworld is really too harsh. Looking around, the dim world is desolate. It is no wonder that the monsters in the underworld have always wanted to break into the human world and occupy the rich and beautiful world.
The underworld is filled with many auras that humans don’t like, including yin energy, evil energy, and death energy.
Among them, the most common is Yin Qi, which can also be called the underworld. Evil air and dead air are relatively rare and concentrated in certain places. These places have more powerful underworld monsters.
The place they were going to at this time was filled with a lot of death and evil air, which made people feel disgusted instinctively.
Huo Ting was not surprised.
Although he had only been with the National Master for a short time, the information he obtained was incomparable to that of other players. He had long guessed the existence of the Netherworld and that the Demon Lord who had never appeared should be in the Netherworld.
Because of this, he stayed in the imperial city, waiting for the opportunity to enter the underworld.
A group of people set out again.
All the players have gathered together, and there is strength in numbers, which also makes them somewhat confident in dealing with the demon lord who is about to appear.
Huo Ting flew on his sword and glanced at Gu Jiu on the back of the three-headed bird. His eyes swept over Wei Shengtu and Shu Yingying and the others. He knew that now was not the time to talk to her.
After flying for a while, the three-headed bird suddenly let out a mournful cry and refused to move forward no matter what.
It lay on the ground with its three heads tucked under its wings, and no matter how it was hit, scolded, or threatened, it refused to fly again.
"Okay, I won't embarrass you." Gu Jiu reached out and patted it on the back, "You can go now."
The three-headed bird still lay there with its head buried, like an ostrich, as if it hadn't heard anything.
The players were both angry and amused. They didn't expect that this Netherworld monster was actually so timid. It behaved like an ostrich, fearing that Gu Jiu's words were a test of it, and refused to accept the challenge.
As long as I don't accept the challenge, you can't kill me.
It didn't until the players left that it quietly poked its head out from under its wings.
The three bird heads looked around and found that the evil star that had been intimidating and suppressing them had really left. They quickly flew away and ran as far as they could, swearing that they would never be fooled by those monks again and would never be caught and used as mounts.
**
Without the three-headed bird to help him get around, Gu Jiu flew with them on his sword.
The evil and deathly auras around them became increasingly dense, mixed with the omnipresent yin energy. For the ascetics and players who were close to spiritual power, it was like hell, and they instinctively felt repelled.
In order to save spiritual energy, they had to jump off the flying swords and walk on their feet.
The light around was getting dimmer and dimmer, like a miasma filled with countless sins and chaos, making people lost.
That kind of loss is not of the body, but of the soul.
The soul has a feeling of lightness, as if it can break free from the constraints of the flesh and body at any time.
Once the soul leaves the body, it would be very dangerous for humans who need the help of the body to move around in such a place.
In order not to lose himself, Weishengtu first sprinkled some poison powder around. The pink poisonous mist spread, and a fishy and sweet smell floated in the air. Although it was not pleasant, it was not unbearable.
All the players suddenly felt refreshed and had a tingling sensation on their nerves.
The damage this toxin causes to the player is negligible, and it is very effective in refreshing the mind, and the dosage is very delicate.
This shows the means by which Weishengcha controls the toxin. It is easy to poison someone to death, but it is very difficult to do it accurately.
Huo Ting also took out three incense sticks and lit them, then inserted them into a small incense burner in his hand. "This is the soul-calming incense specially made by the Imperial Master's Mansion. It can calm a person's three souls and seven spirits."
Everyone felt it and found that the soul and body were becoming more and more in tune with each other, and the feeling of lightness in the soul finally disappeared.
"This thing is good." Qin Huang said, "Do you have more? Give me a few too, brother."
Huo Ting generously took out ten and gave them to him.
Qi Qianyin and the others were not familiar with him and felt embarrassed to ask him for it.
Passing through that dim and misty place, I could faintly hear some strange weeping sounds coming from the front.
"It's the sound of a woman crying." Ye Qian's smiling face became more solemn, "This sound is unusual."
Qin Huang said: "No matter what it is, just fight it first."
The players walked forward cautiously. The light here was obviously not pure black, but it made it impossible to see the bottom. Wherever they looked, there seemed to be a barrier.
Seeing them groping forward, Gu Jiu suddenly shouted, "Be careful!"
Following this warning, the players subconsciously stepped back, except for Wei Shengtu, who was half a step slower, as her ankle was tightly clamped by something. She looked down and found that it was a pale hand that was clamping her ankle, and it stretched out from the front, with a long arm that had no end in sight.
This scene is very creepy.
Wei Shengtu looked calm. He flipped his hand and summoned a black thin-blade dagger. A cold light flashed and it cut a hole in the dagger. He suddenly retracted his hand and a scream was heard in the distance.
At this moment, countless pale hands stretched out from the front and grabbed the player.
"Oh my god, what is this? Is it a ghost hand?" Qin Huang shouted while dodging, summoning card creatures to protect him.
But the card creatures didn't play a big role this time, because there were too many hands, and even the card creatures were caught and dragged towards the unknown place ahead.
The players were no match for the enemy and most of them were caught and dragged away.
Gu Jiu flapped his wings and flew into the air in time, avoiding those hands, took out the Wu Ji Sword, and cut off the attacking hands.
Huo Ting used spatial dislocation to dodge in time.
The two knew that it might be the demon lord who took action, so they hurriedly followed.
Passing through the hazy light and miasma, they finally saw the true face of the demon lord.
I saw a small hill called Ghost Head Mountain appearing in front of me, which was densely filled with various ghost heads. They opened their mouths and roared something, stretched out their hands and tried to crawl forward. The hands became longer and longer, supporting the ground, supporting the Ghost Head Mountain to move forward.
The hands that attacked them earlier were the hands that split off from these ghost heads.
The captured Wei Shengtu and others had been dragged to the front of Guitou Mountain. The ghost heads grabbed them ecstatically, opened their mouths to reveal their sharp ghost teeth, and bit towards their bodies.
Of course, players can't just get bitten and use props to get away.
The ghost hand reached out to Gu Jiu and the others again.
Gu Jiu threw out a stack of paper objects, which moved as they hit the ground, and were caught by the ghost hand instead of them.
Then the two of them took action and helped the captured players escape.
Two ghost dolls jumped off Gu Jiu's shoulders, opened their big mouths full of sharp teeth and bit the ghost hand. After being dragged over by the ghost hand, they bit the ghost head with its mouth open.
We are all supernatural beings, so who is afraid of who
The ghost heads bitten by the flexible strange dolls let out miserable howls. The voices came from men and women, old and young, and were extremely strange. The woman's weeping that they had just heard was also made by the ghost heads on the Ghost Head Mountain attacking each other, which could also confuse the enemy.
There are too many evil hands. Even if you rescue someone, you will still be caught again. It's really annoying.
Gu Jiu flew into the air again and looked at the Ghost Mountain.
This ghost mountain is moving, and it is supported by countless ghost hands. The ghost hands are extremely long and climb on the ground like spiders, moving the ghost mountain.
Gu Jiu looked at Huo Ting and others who were struggling with the ghost hand, and took out the Wu Ji Sword again.
"All of you get out of the way."
Huo Ting immediately pulled Wei Shengtu and Qin Huang away using space dislocation, and Qi Qianyin and the other two also activated the water prison.
Gu Jiu drew his sword.
The sword of Qiankun breaks the sky.
The sword energy swept across, and countless ghost hands broke into two. The ghost mountain lost the support of the ghost hands and crashed to the ground. The ground shook, and the ghost heads on the ghost mountain let out even more tragic cries, as if they were crying because their hands had been chopped off.
It was like a devilish sound filling the ears. Players covered their ears and felt as if their souls were about to float out of their bodies.
Huo Ting quickly lit the soul-calming incense. The curl of green smoke drifted by, and the players finally felt better.
However, this action angered the Ghost Mountain. The ghost heads opened their mouths wide and howled together. The Ghost Mountain, which had stopped moving, began to shake, as if something was trying to break out of the Ghost Mountain.
The two ghost dolls that were fighting with the ghost head were blown away.
They rolled on the ground, and after finally stopping their momentum, they quickly ran towards Gu Jiu, climbed onto her, hid behind her, and refused to come out no matter what.
The supernatural creatures also felt that terrifying danger.
The rumbling sound was incessant, and the vibration of the Ghost Mountain caused the surrounding ground to become abnormal, and the players were shaken to the ground.
Finally, the Ghost Mountain cracked open, and a two-meter-tall giant appeared in it. He flew up and sat on the Ghost Mountain.
"Who are you? How dare you offend the Lord of the Underworld!"
The sound rumbled in the ears, as if to shock people, and as if it was going to smash into their souls, making people terrified.
At the entrance of the passage that connects the underworld and the human world, the imperial teacher who was sitting on a rock with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes.
The dragon floating in the air looked into the distance and made a surprised sound, "How brave! Someone has awakened the demon in the underworld."
Even the dragons don't dare to attack the monsters there easily.
Although the monks guarding nearby did not know what was happening, they could sense an instinctive sense of danger from the changes in the Netherworld's aura. They subconsciously looked towards the Imperial Master with worry.
"Master, it looks like I'm going to win this bet." Jiaolong's voice sounded a little proud.
"Not necessarily." The national teacher said lightly, "The outcome is still uncertain."
The statement that the outcome is uncertain refers not only to the bet between the two people, but also to the battle going on over there.
The dragon snorted coldly, "If the Lord of the Underworld hadn't come, that guy would be the true Lord of the Netherworld. Even the Lord of the Underworld has never made a move on him. Do you think a few cultivators can deal with him?"
The Imperial Master remained silent, his eyes still staring ahead, as if he was penetrating space and looking at the battle between humans and demons.
The ascetics present became increasingly worried.
**
The players were once again shaken by the sound, their blood rushing up and bleeding from all seven orifices.
"Damn, it's bleeding." Qin Huang wiped the blood from his nose, took out the golden card - Spear of Judgment, and sacrificed it without hesitation.
The angel descended, holy and spotless, and threw the spear of judgment at the enemy.
However, the ultimate weapon that was once invincible did not cause much damage to the demons. It was caught by a hand, which squeezed it hard, and golden light dissipated, and the Spear of Judgment disappeared.
The demon on the Ghost Mountain looked over with a pair of weird and enchanting eyes, and the big hand slapped towards this side.
Qin Huang was knocked to the ground by it, his face turned pale, he let out a muffled groan, and spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".
The Spear of Judgment consumed all of his spiritual energy, making it impossible for him to dodge the palm.
Seeing that the palm was coming again, Weishengtu flew over, picked him up and hid aside, and at the same time roughly stuffed a few spiritual pills into his mouth. Qin Huang choked and rolled his eyes, almost choking to death.
The others scattered to avoid the palm.
Qi Qianyin and his companions used their ultimate weapons, the water prison and the merman to kill them together, but they could not hold out for less than half a minute before a huge evil spirit poured in, and the three of them flew backwards and fell to the ground below.
"No, it's not lethal enough to destroy it." Huo Ting said, "We need a more powerful killing technique."
A more powerful killing technique? That can only be the Qiankun Sword that Gu Jiu practiced.
Gu Jiu said: "The Qiankun Sword Technique should be able to deal with it, but we have to get close to it." She calmly judged, "The Qiankun Sword Technique can attack from a distance, but it is not as lethal as the close-range one."
The distance is too far to hurt the demon lord.
"I'll take you there." Huo Ting said decisively, "I'll use space teleportation."
Gu Jiu hummed and stretched out his hand to him, "Okay."
At this time, the evil energy released by the Demon Lord was like a wall of air. The players were either blown away or pressed to the ground, and dragged back by the ghost hands that stretched out quietly.
Huo Ting saw this scene and knew that he could not delay any longer. He held Gu Jiu's hand and said, "Ajiu, pay attention!"
The space changed, and in a moment they arrived in front of the Ghost Mountain.
Just as the demon on Ghost Mountain was about to attack, the two men disappeared out of thin air and appeared behind the demon the next moment.
A huge evil aura came, and the two disappeared again, and then appeared on the right side of the demon, and the evil aura came again...
This is a contest between Huo Ting and the demon. Every space shift tests the speed of Huo Ting and the demon. Whoever is faster will be invincible.
Huo Ting was taking Gu Jiu with him, and the speed of space movement was getting faster and faster. His face became paler and paler, and beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead.
Frequent space movement consumes a lot of his energy.
Gu Jiu didn't say anything.
She was looking for the right moment.
The demon's perception of space is so strong that it seems to be able to detect even the slightest spatial fluctuations. Without full preparation, it is impossible to kill it.
Unfortunately, the magic clock has run out of time, and she has no time-related props on her, so she can only watch Huo Ting and the demon fight. Whoever can outlast the others will win.
The feeling of being carried through space was not good. Gu Jiu ignored the dizziness and continued to look for opportunities calmly.
The time is now!
"Hoting!"
Hearing this sound, Huo Ting stopped immediately.
At this time, Gu Jiu had already drawn his sword.
With a sword of Qiankun, the space was broken. When the demon lord was attracted by the space fluctuations created by Huo Ting and finally realized that something was wrong, he was greeted by a firefly-like ground fire. When the ground fire approached the demon, it instantly ignited, burned its eyes, and caused blood to flow out.
"Ah!" The demon lord cried out in anger, tears streaming down his face. "It's the Forgotten River Fire. You actually got the Forgotten River Fire... Who are you anyway?"
Gu Jiu did not say anything. What greeted him was a sword energy that rose into the sky and rushed straight towards him.
It seemed like a few seconds had passed, but it also seemed like a long time had passed before the evil energy that was vibrating in the entire space finally stopped.
The ghost hands that grabbed the players and wanted to drag them to the ghost mountain were frozen there, and the players took the opportunity to struggle and break free from them.
The ghost heads on the Ghost Mountain roared in unison, and the demon on the top of the mountain sat there with its body torn in two. Countless black blood spilled, winding down the Ghost Mountain and flowing to the ground.
The ground soaked in the demon's blood made a sizzling sound.
The players hurriedly ran outside to avoid being contaminated by the strange blood. Only Wei Shengtu happily went over and took out tools to collect the blood on the ground.
Qin Huang pulled her back, "Auntie, please be careful!"
This blood is so poisonous that everyone else wants to stay away from it, but she wants to hide it all.
The hem of Wei Shengtu's clothes was stained with blood and turned into ashes in an instant, but she didn't care and continued to collect the blood attentively. Seeing the blood spreading towards her feet, Qin Huang could only drag her back bitterly, for fear that this girl would give up her life for the blood.
The ghost heads on the Ghost Mountain were soaked in the demon's blood, like solid ice encountering the scorching sun, melting in the roar.
This scene was extremely creepy. The players felt so sick that they retreated one after another. After retreating to a safe place, they sat on the ground and gasped for breath.
This battle was so thrilling that all their spiritual power was exhausted. It was a relief that they could just stand.
Gu Jiu spread his wings on his back, grabbed Huo Ting's arm with one hand, and took him away from Ghost Mountain.
The demon lord was finally destroyed.
The players also felt the familiar stretching force, and they were finally about to leave this world.
Wei Shengtu said to Gu Jiu: "Miss, I will treat you to a meal when I return."
"We'll treat you to dinner too." Qi Qianyin said with a smile.
Ye Qian and Shu Yingying both had smiles on their faces. They were covered in blood and their white teeth were visible when they smiled.
Gu Jiu responded with a smile.
**
At the exit of the passage between the underworld and the human world, the national teacher stood up.
The dragon coiled up its body and said in an unpleasant voice, "Chu Wushang, you won the bet this time."
The Imperial Master showed a light smile on his face, "Thank you."
The dragon snorted coldly, "I didn't expect that you cultivators in the human world are so powerful. It was me who underestimated you. Since you have such abilities, I guess you don't need to cooperate with the underworld, right?"
The Imperial Master shook his head, "They are not ascetics."
"What?"
The Imperial Master did not explain. He looked at the ascetics present and said loudly, "Everyone, this matter is over. You may return to the human world first."
"National Master, what about you?" asked the Kunshan elder.
The Imperial Master leaped down from the rock, waved his sleeves, and said with a smile: "I will go to find the Lord of the Underworld."
Everyone showed surprise on their faces, and stepped forward to salute. This time, they were happy and submissive, "Farewell, Imperial Master."
