[Ancient Sword II] Morning Light Shadow

"what happened?"

From Cangming's position, the drastic changes in the barrier above the north cannot be seen, but through the unusual refraction of light at this moment and the sharp whistling sound produced by the outside airflow pouring into the cavity, one can still perceive what happened to Liuyue City.

Shen Xi turned around blankly, completely oblivious to the blood dripping from her fingers: "Fuxi's barrier is broken."

Violently breaking Fuxi's barrier is unprecedented in the thousands of years of Liuyue City's history, but it really... did it?

Although he didn't know what kind of impact this matter would bring, Cangming still quickly scattered his spiritual consciousness into the whole city, preferring to consume a lot of spiritual power, and would not let go of any strangeness.

Seeing that Cang Ming had taken measures, Cong Yang calmed down a little, took Shen Xi's hand, and while her attention was still on the hole in the north, quickly opened the wound, took out the cotton thread, and then applied the healing technique, the whole process was done in one go , when Shen Xi felt the pain and turned his head to check, the wound had almost healed.

"...What did he use to blast a hole in the barrier?"

"I heard that they intend to use the power contained in the five-color stone..." Congyang rubbed his chin, "The barrier was made by Fuxi, and the five-color stone was made by Nuwa, so it happens to be evenly matched... Yes, such a simple truth , How did no one think of it earlier?"

In other words, why do you suddenly have a sense of sight of nuclear pollution leaking from the nuclear power plant for power generation and heating at the other end?

Shen Xi felt that if it wasn't for the fact that there was a little surplus of five-color stones, and the divine blood was about to run out, maybe the blood of Shennong would be used to blast the barrier at this moment...?

She really couldn't imagine the scene where her brother and sister plus Cangming were stuffed into the barrel of a cannon by Xie Yi and fired as shells to bomb the barrier.

While she was thinking wildly, the huge gap in the northern dome of light had begun to close. In the blink of an eye, the previous hole had been closed as before. Looking at it from a distance, there was no trace of just being violently destroyed.

"Xiao Xi..."

Cang Ming withdrew his spiritual consciousness and slowly opened his eyes, it seemed that due to the excessive consumption of spiritual power, his already pale face was a little more tired.

"When I used my spiritual sense to investigate the whole city just now, I found that something seemed to have entered Liuyue City through the gap in the barrier, but the thing's whereabouts were extremely erratic, and my spiritual sense was too scattered, so I couldn't find it... ...I have already informed Ah Ye of this matter, and I may trouble you, pay more attention to the movement in the city in the past few days..."

Shen Xi nodded: "I know... Sister Cangming, you must be very tired after consuming so much spiritual power. Congyang and I will go back first, and you should have a good rest."

Without waiting for Shen Ye to pay attention to the movement in the city, something strange happened a few hours later.After hearing Huayue's report, Shen Ye's face sank like water, and both eyebrows were knit together.

Shen Xi silently glanced at her elder brother, and took back the Yingzhu that she was about to show him.Anyway, I already know it, so it doesn't matter if I don't see it... She doesn't think the scene of city residents biting each other like crazy and performing a biochemical crisis will be pleasing to the eye.

It is said that those people became crazy like beasts after encountering a strange purple-black mist, and even their bodies were alienated.Don't even think about it, it must have something to do with the thing that Cang Ming said passed through the barrier breach.

As a standard fighter in terms of physical strength, Shen Xi sensibly squatted in the temple and didn't go anywhere. When Shen Ye stepped up to investigate the changes in the city, Tong Yang and Cong Yang had already had results.After the change in the city, people with alienated bodies were sent to the temple soon. They had been studying those people before.

Glancing at his own brother and the Qisha priest who were talking in a low voice with solemn faces, Shen Xi stretched out his hand and tugged at Congyang's sleeve: "What exactly does it look like?"

"A lot of strange lines appeared on the body, and the limbs also mutated to a certain extent... They are very bloodthirsty and easy to kill. They bite people like a lunatic. Earlier, Master and I locked them together, but the stronger ones directly killed the most The weak one was pressed against the wall and bitten to death...and the dead one turned into ashes directly..."

"What about the black mist?" Shen Xi thought for a while and asked, "It can confuse people's minds... What is it about?"

Before Congyang could speak, Tong Tong had already given the answer: "It should be the power of the devil."

When Shen Ye was dispatching people to gather and treat the maddened people affected by the black mist, a young priest hurried in and said that the former greedy wolf priest Cheng Luan was covered in injuries and was asking to see the high priest outside the conference hall.

Before the little priest finished speaking, Feng Ya couldn't stand still and wanted to go out, but was stopped by Shen Ye, and asked him to take Cheng Luan for treatment first, and then report.

Not long after, the pale-faced former Tanlang priest followed Feng Ya into the meeting hall.

Cheng Luan's family was in the lower city, and he was aware of the change from the very beginning. After discovering the source of the black mist, he rushed to the temple to report the news.

After getting the news, Shen Ye immediately took people there, and before leaving, he asked Shen Xi to arrange a place for Cheng Luan to recuperate.

After setting up Cheng Luan and giving him some wound medicine, Shen Xi went back to her room and asked Yun Yu to guard the door, not allowed to come in without orders.

At this hour of the day, the tear shadow worms patrolling the city happened to be near the place Cheng Luan said, although his own presence is a burden, but it is no problem to check the situation through the Gu worms.

After closing his eyes for a moment, when he opened them again, images of houses and roads were reflected in Shen Xi's eyes, which was the state after sharing the vision of Gu worms with himself.Manipulating the tear shadow worm with her mind, she gradually approached the area Cheng Luan described, and Shen Xi could even see the fragment of her brother walking to the vicinity in an instant.

Although Shen Ye and his party were very fast, the insects were small in size. Under Shen Xi's control, they got through the small gaps and took a shortcut to travel in a straight line, and arrived at their destination earlier than Shen Ye.

The lower city is an area where ordinary people live. The buildings are not as elegant and grand as the upper city where the temple is located. The houses are compact and the streets are very narrow. Usually, it looks a little dark when the sun is sunny, but at this time it is shrouded in thick purple-black mist. It's a little more eerie.

Shen Xi continued to manipulate the Gu worms to fly to the place where the black mist was thickest. Along the way, strange creatures that seemed human but not human could be seen faintly, with ferocious claws and fangs, strange red and black lines on the skin, and blood-red eyes, revealing a crazy dark light , walking back and forth with hunched bodies, some are even biting each other, eating flesh and blood...

Could it be that if he is eroded too deeply by the black mist, he will become this crazy, bloodthirsty monster that doesn't even have a human form?

The air filled with black mist seemed to have become thicker, and even had a viscous texture. The Gu worms flew for a long time, but they didn't seem to have advanced much.Surrounded by a black and purple mist, Shen Xi can no longer see the surrounding things, Shen Xi can only choose the direction based on the feeling and the little impression he saw before, if it is not afraid that the Gu worms will be trampled to death by monsters that may pass by, Shen Xi I would rather let it use crawling, at least there is the ground as a reference, so I won't be so dazed as I am now.

Just as she was thinking, something seemed to be approaching in the black mist. Shen Xi lifted her spirits and stared in that direction, and soon saw a translucent human figure condensed by the mist. She seemed to be naked, but she couldn't tell her gender... ...is this the devil?

"Hehehehehehehehe..." The human figure let out a dry laugh, as if it was grinding its vocal cords with sandpaper, "Let me see, where did this little bug come from?"

The translucent black human figure magnified instantly, as if a solid mist spread infinitely in front of my eyes, and with it spread an unimaginable severe pain, as if something filled the entire eyeball from the inside, and then exploded...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Howling your grandma's legs, howling!The old lady didn't make a sound when she was in such pain, but you started howling first!

Even though she really wanted to yell like this, Shen Xi no longer had the strength to support herself in doing so.The last thing she saw was the black mist that had been struggling to leave her body rushing into an ancient bronze mirror, and...

The brother's terrified face.
