The blood moon was in the sky, and the red and strange moonlight spread like a tide, forming a heart-stopping wave that enveloped the sky and the earth.
In just a moment, the whole world was filled with a boring, depressing, and irritable atmosphere, which was breathtaking and impacted people's minds like waves.
The expressions of Gu Tian and other guards all became extremely solemn at this moment. They held various magic weapons and guarded Cui Qingning in the center. They held their breath and concentrated as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
No one made a sound, and all actions were completed in silence. It was obvious that they had experienced many scenes like this along the way, and they looked quite experienced.
When Chen Xi saw this, he pursed his lips and said nothing, being cautious.
Although his cultivation has not yet recovered, his soul is still there, and he can clearly feel the unparalleled immortal thoughts in an instant. When the blood moon appears in the night sky, a monstrous anger and resentment are accompanied by the violent underworld. The power suddenly spread out.
That soul-depressing power comes from it.
"It's such a thick and terrifying resentment. How could the blood moon release such a terrifying aura when it comes out? It's like the door to hell has been opened..."
Chen Xi frowned, feeling confused and confused.
They were in a dense forest at this time. Through the layers of branches, they could clearly see that in the dark sky, the blood-colored moonlight was like a substance, floating down and covering the heaven and earth, as if it had covered the whole world with a cloud. It's like a bloody gauze, ghostly and strange.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
As the night grew darker and darker, the brilliance of the blood moon became more and more intense. Suddenly, nine figures appeared under the night, each wearing robes as thick as blood, and their faces were as cold as ice. His eyes and lips were as red as blood.
When he saw the faces of these nine people clearly, one word suddenly appeared in Chen Xi's mind - ghost!
And it's not an ordinary ghost, but an extremely ferocious evil ghost!
Because their aura is too weird and gloomy, lifeless, and their whole bodies are shrouded in a strong and sinister ghost aura, which is extremely cold and cold.
What is particularly terrifying is that these nine figures are also carrying a dark and cold bronze coffin, which is thirty feet long. The surface is densely covered with a layer of dense and twisted patterns. It is extremely gorgeous and exudes a noble air. breath.
Monster blood moon!
Nine ghosts pull the coffin!
This picture, in this silent and dark night, was filled with such shocking power that even Chen Xi couldn't help but freeze his eyes.
He could clearly feel that in the dark and cold bronze coffin, there was a terrifying power that did not belong to the fifth level of Earth Immortal. It was obscure and cold, and contained an indescribable and monstrous aura.
Boom!
A muffled sound resounded throughout the world.
The bronze coffin opened automatically, and immediately, a pair of slender, white and slender palms carved from mutton-fat jade were revealed. The fingers were folded together and soon formed a strange handprint.
Wow!
When a handprint was condensed, a huge bloody torrent suddenly emerged from the bloody moonlight above the sky, pouring into the bronze coffin like a waterfall falling from the sky.
Obviously, the being in the coffin is using a secret method to absorb the power from the blood moon.
"It's actually a sign of 'a fierce ghost swallowing the moon'. It seems that the order in the Netherworld has been chaotic to the extreme. The source of the chaos is either from the Netherworld Blood River, or from the Hell Division and the Evil Ghost Division in the Six Paths of the Underworld, or it is something that happened in the city of vain death." A shocking incident occurred..."
Xiao Ding suddenly said.
Chen Xi was shocked. The order was chaotic? Is this also a sign of the turmoil in the Three Realms? It seems that not only the human world, but also the situation in the Netherworld is in turmoil.
"But this is also an opportunity for you."
Xiao Ding changed the subject and said, "When your strength recovers, you can completely replenish the power of repairing the Netherworld Record by killing these fierce ghosts."
Chen Xi was stunned and thoughtful.
Before, he had clearly felt that the blood moon was filled with a violent netherworld power, but it was extremely mixed. There was also substantial hostility, fierceness, and resentment in it, which was not suitable for absorbing at all.
But all this obviously couldn't stop those fierce ghosts. They obviously regarded the power of the blood moon as the best way to gain power. In this way, as long as these ghosts are killed and the power from them is taken away, the Netherworld Record may be restored.
At this time, when Xiao Ding spoke out to verify it, Chen Xi was immediately convinced of this idea.
"Of course, if you have the strength of the third Netherworld Emperor, you can reach the sky and refine the Netherworld power in the entire blood moon. In that case, all the creatures in the Netherworld world will be grateful to you. "
Xiao Ding made a rare joke.
Chen Xi was stunned, but said thoughtfully: "If there is a chance in the future, I really want to give it a try."
…
After a stick of incense.
Above the sky, the bronze coffin was closed again, and nine ghosts carried the coffin, swaying, walking in the dark night, and disappeared.
At this point, Gu Tian and others all secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions became much more relaxed.
"Brother Chen Xi, that was the Nine Ghosts pulling the coffin just now. They are very common in the bloody land. As long as they are not disturbed, there is generally no danger."
Cui Qingning came to Chen Xi's side with light steps and said with a smile: "I didn't scare you just now, did I?"
Chen Xi shook his head and said, "I'm just curious. The moon in the netherworld is completely different from the human world."
"Actually, it was the same before."
Cui Qingning whispered, "In recent years, the number of innocent ghosts in the city has suddenly increased. Thousands of innocent ghosts appear every day. Their resentment and hostility cannot be resolved, so they are swallowed up by the moon."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, "There's nothing we can do about it. The great venerable Ksitigarbha who controlled the City of Wasted Death suddenly disappeared, causing chaos in the City of Wasted Death, and the evil ghosts could not escape. More and more people gathered, and they began to fight for It’s a disaster for the entire Netherworld.”
Sure enough, something happened in the City of Wasted Death!
Chen Xi suddenly thought of Xiao Ding's previous speculation, and couldn't help frowning: "Don't the big shots in the Netherworld don't care?"
"them?"
A look of disappointment appeared on Cui Qingning's lips, and she shook her head and said, "They only care about fighting for power and fighting each other. Who cares about the life and death of other creatures in the underworld?"
Chen Xi thought to himself: "It seems that this Netherworld Underworld is also in turmoil now, with undercurrents surging."
At this moment, Chen Xi suddenly felt a flutter in his heart without any warning. The fighting instinct honed over many years made him subconsciously jump up and rush towards Cui Qingning next to him.
Cui Qingning's vision went dark. Before she could react, she was hugged by Chen Xi and dodged to one side. On the way, she knocked down a big tree that several people were hugging.
This sudden change frightened her into screaming.
laugh!
A wisp of silvery sword light seemed to come out of thin air, grazing her temples in a flash, leaving a trace of blood as thin as a hair.
There was a pop, and the next moment, she felt like the world was spinning and her whole body was rolling on the ground.
Chen Xi's reaction was extremely fast, like lightning. From the moment he noticed that slight throbbing, he subconsciously took action. If his strength had not been restored, this reaction would have been enough to teleport tens of thousands of miles away with Cui Qingning.
Unfortunately, his strength is only about the level of the Golden Core Realm, and he can only hug Cui Qingning and break down large trees in an awkward manner to dodge this unexpected attack.
"Um?"
A soft cry suddenly sounded in the dense forest, erratic.
At this time, Gu Tian and other guards also realized that something was wrong and roared, seeming to have taken action.
Unfortunately, all of this made Chen Xi feel insecure. On the contrary, the sense of danger in his heart became stronger and stronger, stimulating the hair on his body to stand on end.
Because until now, that aura like a gleam on his back was still locked on him.
Buzz!
The sound of the low, thin sword light breaking through the air like a gnat sounded again.
Without thinking, Chen Xi bowed his figure and stabbed the void in front of him with the sword in his hand. In the empty void, a black shadow suddenly appeared, and Chen Xi's sword was pointed at the opponent's body. Throat area.
It felt like a prophet, as if he had already predicted the assassin's whereabouts and where he would appear. Chen Xi's sword was like waiting for a rabbit to strike. With a single finger, it hit the opponent's vital point, thus Indirectly disrupting the opponent's offensive.
boom!
A sharp sound broke through the air, passing by the side of Chen Xi's cheek, and punching a finger-thick hole in the ground behind it, which was bottomless.
From the beginning to the end, Chen Xi remained calm and did not even blink. This was the reason why he bowed his body before and had already accurately captured the trajectory of the opponent's sword light.
"Huh!"
There was another soft cry, and the assassin seemed extremely surprised, but his reaction was also very fast. His figure flashed and he came towards Chen Xi from another direction to kill him again.
This time, Chen Xi did not counterattack at all. Instead, he hugged Cui Qingning and violently retreated backwards, completely ignoring the extremely dangerous sword light approaching from behind.
clang!
A deafening crash sounded behind Chen Xi.
At this point, Chen Xi stopped. When he turned around, he saw that Gu Tian was already fighting with the assassin.
From the beginning to the end, his expression was as calm as ice, and his actions were crisp and clear, so as not to be sloppy. Every move he made had a sense of uncertainty, but he was not embarrassed at all.
The reason is that although his strength has not been restored, his terrifying fighting consciousness has long exceeded the scope of the earthly fairyland. How could he be easily succeeded by an assassin
"It's okay. Open your eyes." Chen Xi squinted his eyes and looked at the battle situation. He knew clearly that it would be difficult for the assassin to succeed again.
At this time, Cui Qingning was so frightened by this sudden scene that her face turned pale, and she didn't realize that she was pressing her petite body tightly against Chen Xi like an octopus...
