When the devil

……

"You can swallow this old bone of mine." A sneering voice said, "Qi Wu, are you so naive, thinking that you can continue to stay in this world if you eat me?"

In the darkness, the terrifying beast opened four slender pupils.

It's a hideous red.

"Your demon core has been shattered, if you don't return to the demon domain, you will only die."

Taotie was torn apart, half of his body rolled in the black swamp, he was trapped in the predator's barrier, he couldn't see his face clearly, his sharp claws pierced through the bones, he heard a low growl of satisfaction.

"What are you thinking?"

A large piece of meat was bitten off from his shoulder, and the sound of slapping was close at hand.

"I just don't like you."

The black smoke and dust slowly scattered, coiled into Ruye's robe, wrapping Xia Zhou's tall and powerful body.He bent down, stretched out his cold and slender hand, picked up the incomplete part of Yu Wanfeng and watched it carefully.

The remaining eyes were full of fear, and the pupils were shaking violently.

"This is impossible."

Yu Wanfeng wailed weakly.

"Why does the demon force...will..."

Xia Zhou bent down seemed to be happy to appreciate Yu Wanfeng's flustered appearance, his handsome face had an evil smile, and the light flowing in his phoenix eyes was like the shadow of a moon in the deep sea.

"It seems that your master has also abandoned you."

As soon as Xia Zhou let go, the last remnant also chased into the endless darkness.

"After all, you are not the only one of his monsters."

……

……

The cold wind howls in the sky, and the road is only black and white, and I don't know where it leads.

Yudu is like a dead city, submerged in the snow.

The movement behind was getting farther and farther away, and there were guards lined up on both sides of the front.

Scarlet flames danced in the brazier, turning the road leading to the altar into blood.

Bai Li's pace slowed down, his eyes were straight ahead, even though the guards around him had spotted him, he completely forgot to run away.

Because, he saw his father.

Wearing silver battle armor, Bai Lie knelt half-kneeling in front of the altar. The mighty silver spear pierced through his back, and the point of the spear pierced deeply into the ground. The flames flickered into an unquenchable edge.

"Your name is Bai Li, right?"

Among the guards in line, Xue Qingqing stepped out and walked towards him step by step.

Bai Li's mind went blank, he saw the guards around him set off with Xue Qingqing, he stumbled back and almost fell to the ground.

"Your father was bewitched by a demon and tried to cause riots. He was once an invincible general. I am very sorry that he has ended up in this fate."

Xue Qingqing looked at Bai Li, then lowered her gaze to the head that Bai Li was holding tightly.

"What you are holding in your hand is the head of a wanted criminal. Give him to me, and you can still make up for the crime." She stretched out her hand towards Bai Li.

Bai Li kept shaking his head, his eyes were swollen from crying, and there was only hatred in his eyes, he didn't trust anyone.

He can only escape.

But where should he escape?

He stared blankly at the figure of his father in the distance, stepping back little by little.

Until——someone behind him supported him, with little strength, but like a huge pillar, allowing him to stand firm just before falling into the abyss.

"Follow me, don't be afraid."

A gentle voice sounded next to his ears. The man was dressed in white, not stained with any filth. He blocked Bai Li behind him. When he raised his eyes, golden lines of light bloomed in an instant. The guards on both sides stopped, and no one dared to come closer , but after all, they failed to escape the magic circle formed in an instant.

Demons, ghosts, curses, dead souls.Between the monstrous and pure fire, no one can escape.

That is the purest color in the world.

The bodyguards were burned all over, showing their true colors, and what was hidden under the human skin turned out to be black bones!

"Tell me, how many people are still alive in Yudu?" Wei Ling looked at the burning end of the Jinghuo.

Xue Qingqing held a long sword and stood in the sea of ​​flames.This is the barrier set up by Wei Ling, and the evil spirits cannot stay for long.She was still there, at least alive, it seemed.

"Purification circle, I'm afraid you are the only one in this world who can do it." With a sad smile on her face, Xue Qingqing turned around and looked at the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven: "People say that you are in collusion with evil spirits, now look Come…"

Wei Ling had nothing to say to her, but she was feeling powerless.

He turned back to look at Bai Li, Bai Li was overly frightened, his eyes were still stubborn and strong, his face was covered with blood, his arms were trembling, holding Shen Feihuan's head was like holding a life-saving straw.

"Xiaobai." Wei Ling comforted him: "Relax, put down the things in your hands first."

Bai Li opened his eyes and looked at it, with a confused expression and thoughtful expression.

"Don't worry, he won't die." Wei Ling said patiently, "But if you hold him in your arms, he won't survive."

Bai Li has heard many people say that he can't die, but normal people can't understand, he still retreats, resolutely not to give up Shen Feihuan to anyone, he retreated a few steps, he saw that Wei Ling didn't continue to approach, at this moment it was time to escape Great opportunity.

So, in a flash, Bai Li ran away again.

Xue Qingqing looked at it for a while, and couldn't help laughing.

"You also have times when people are afraid of you."

Wei Ling: "I have never been liked by children."

"Really?" Xue Qingqing smiled: "Once upon a time...children really liked me."

Under the pale sky, dark clouds flowed silently, Wei Ling turned her head, seeing that her smile flickered before disappearing, her eyes that had lost their brightness seemed to have regained a little warmth.

She also didn't know what she had experienced after Cheng Yingjie left. The person in front of her was like a walking corpse, yet struggling on the verge of falling.

"Protect Bai Li." Wei Ling said to her, "Leave the rest to me."

"Are you not afraid that I will kill him?" Xue Qingqing restrained her smile: "He is the orphan of the Bai family and Gu Xiao's dog. I have no reason to let him live."

Wei Ling said: "This is not something that people who attract children would say."

Xue Qingqing stared at him: "That was in the past, not now."

"What's the difference between the past and the present? Everything you do is from the heart. Now that Gu Xiao is dead, the Bai family has never done anything to harm the Xue family." The gun pierces the lone wolf before the altar.

"You are a mortal, not a ghost, so think about it again."

【Yudu Temple of Worship to Heaven】

Gu Xuancheng was standing in front of the altar of the heaven sacrifice ceremony, four pure fires were burning in four directions.

There was heavy snow, but the altar was clean. The guards were in a hurry and piled the corpses of some men in black on the altar. The blood seeped out from their bodies and flowed along the lines of the altar, forming a pure white world. of red.

Bai Lie was in the middle of the magic circle.

The chaos in his body does not know whether it is dead or alive, at least it is still silent at this time.

When Yuan Chun came, her expression looked flattering, and before she could speak, Gu Xuancheng guessed the result.

"Your Highness, we have searched all over Yudu, but we couldn't find the figure of Wuwu, but he was able to escape the eyes of Tailiyuan, which also shows that his demon power is seriously injured. It may not be a good thing." Yuan Chun said while observing Gu Wu. Xuancheng's expression, seeing that there was no anger in Gu Xuancheng's eyes, she pretended to say frankly: "When we complete the magic circle and disperse the souls of the dead, these monsters that rely on sacrifices will naturally disappear. He's not that important either."

Gu Xuancheng laughed lightly: "You think I'm going to kill him just because it's a beast?"

Yuan Chun blinked quickly, and smiled: "I don't think so."

"Find him, even if there is only one hair left." Gu Xuancheng turned his face away from the light, his facial features sank into the shadows: "I want Master to know that he is nothing more than an ant in my hands. How can such vulgar things stain my master's innocence."

inappropriate.

This is clearly provoking trouble.

Yuan Chun had a smile on his face, but he was repeatedly vetoing it in his heart. The matter between Wei Ling and Xia Zhou was not a secret. Gu Xuancheng was playing with fire like this, and Yuan Chun was worried that he would commit suicide sooner or later.

At this moment, Wei Ling came.

When Yuan Chun saw the Great Immortal Venerable in fluttering white clothes, his retreat was unstoppable.

"Master, look." Gu Xuancheng walked up to him in two or three steps: "We are hunting down the people from the Eastern Realm in Yudu City. They are carrying evil magic and need to draw a formation to suppress them..."

He prepared many kinds of answers to Wei Ling's questions, and he believed that Wei Ling could understand him.

"Master, I will definitely make these villains disappear from the world. When I ascend the throne, Yudu will usher in peace. You stay with me in the palace and will never be harassed by evil spirits again."

After he finished speaking, he gave Yuan Chun, who was dazed beside him, a look. Yuan Chun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded again and again, and started walking non-stop.

The flames flickered, and hidden in the depths of the shadows was the darkness that could devour all.

Wei Ling walked to Bai Lie's side and lowered his head to confirm his condition.At this time, his whole body was covered with demon patterns, his black hair was scattered, and his face could not be seen clearly.

"The injury of a mortal is already more serious than good, but this gun has the power to seal demons. Pinning him here is to prevent the chaos in his corpse from escaping." Seeing that Wei Ling was concerned, Gu Xuancheng explained it generously .

"Xuan Cheng, stop."

Wei Ling said to him a little tiredly.

Gu Xuancheng was taken aback for a moment, and said embarrassingly, "Why?"

Wei Ling raised his eyes, but his eyes jumped over Gu Xuancheng, and looked at the corpses of Dongjing people piled up on the altar behind him.

Gu Xuancheng understood, and smiled helplessly: "No way, Master, are you sympathizing with the people in the East? They dragged you into the abyss and brought evil spirits into the world. Even if my mother died and my father died , their grievances will not end here, and any Zhaoyang person is a target of hatred by the Eastlanders."

Wei Ling waited for him to finish, and then slowly said: "The gate of hell has spread throughout Yudu. I thought...it was out of control, but it seems that not only the corpses outside, but even the soldiers guarding your safety have become dead souls." Puppet, Gu Xuancheng, you have completely controlled the gates of hell, but you still slaughter without restraint, who are you taking revenge on?"

It was less than half a day after Yue Erzhen's death, and the gate of hell had already grown to a chilling point.

What's even more frightening is that Wei Ling discovered that the gate of hell was not out of control, and that all of this was perfectly controlled by Gu Xuancheng. It was he who made the gate of hell summon a group of dead souls to cover Yudu. Prey on the spider's web, waiting to be torn apart bite by bite.

Gu Xuancheng seemed to be very easily stimulated. He was still laughing just now, but now his face was stiff, his knuckles holding the steel fan turned white, and he seemed very nervous: "So you are worried about this..." He touched his nose embarrassedly, Said: "The dead... are more obedient than the living, don't need to eat, don't need to be tired... have no hatred, no desire, master, I have the strongest army, those living people will only make me infinitely sick, I let them sleep Wouldn't it be nice to die in the middle of the world, and the world will be peaceful from now on, only you and me?"

Originally, he didn't intend to tell Wei Ling this idea, but Wei Ling is not a fool, he can't be fooled.In the few short sentences just now, Gu Xuancheng tried to convince himself that he did nothing wrong, and he did not talk nonsense. He hoped that Wei Ling could understand him, at least stop looking at him with such indifferent eyes.

"Master, I know you will think I'm crazy, but...if it wasn't for me, would their endings be different? Will Yu be safe? If the monsters attack as planned, they will be even more miserable than they are now. I With the blood of the Eastern Territory flowing on my body, even if I inherit the throne, can I really win the hearts of the people? Will those soldiers and horses guarding outside Yudu really bow their heads to me?"

Gu Xuancheng's voice gradually became louder, and his eyes became wider and wider.

"Human life in troubled times is wildfire and weeds."

When he finished speaking, Tianqiong's demon-sealing barrier shook violently.

The flying snow rolled in disorder, and the flowing spells intertwined, and then slowly returned to calm.

Wei Ling looked at Gu Xuancheng expressionlessly. For some reason, he had the illusion that Gu Xuancheng in front of him was like an empty shell.

There are thousands of emotions in him, but his eyes are as empty as marshes.

Wei Ling said: "When you worshiped me as your teacher, did you want to break your destiny, or did you just cheat and abduct me into the mortal world as your mother thought?"

"Do not…"

The calm didn't last long, and soon the second shock came again.

Gu Xuancheng was cut off from his words by a burst of tearing pain, he clutched his chest and panted heavily, but his eyes slowly lifted up, and the eye sockets were stained with a circle of blood-like red.

"Stop it, Xuan Cheng." Wei Ling said patiently: "You come back to Liuli Mountain with me, and I will find a way to suppress the gate of hell on your body."

Gu Xuancheng said sadly: "No, Master, I have never had a second choice."

A terrifying demon force is approaching, which is a breath completely different from the gate of hell.

Something else broke in.

"In this world, you are the only one who treats me like a dear friend... I never thought of hurting me."

Gu Xuancheng gritted his teeth, and the gentle appearance of the past disappeared: "But you, you abandoned me. It's all your fault. It's you... who made me see hope and shattered it to pieces."

He stood firm, waved his sleeves irritably, and the sticky black mud spread from the bottom of his feet in an instant, spreading the ground illuminated by the light of the pure fire into strange shadows.

Wei Ling's feet were already submerged in mud, and small white hands stretched out to grab the soles of his boots.

The demon sealing formation trembled violently, turning into layers of light powder, which fell with the snow.

coming.

The blood-colored light spots in the sky are a sign of disaster, and the cloudy purple light formations are piled up layer by layer. Accompanied by a roar, it is the figure of Bai Lie behind him who shakes. He stands up abruptly, and the silver gun lights up. The color of the monster, but very quickly, the silver spear was broken, Bai Lie squatted down with his legs, his fingertips touched the ground, when he raised his eyes, the demon light was scarlet, and he jumped up in an instant, shattering countless arms turned up in the gate of hell.

Bai Lie?

Wei Ling was overwhelmed by the powerful evil spirit.

No, it was—chaos.

All the soldiers on standby around the altar set off. The curse of the gate of hell climbed their bodies and entangled their weapons, but they remained indifferent, as if they had merged with the cursed black mud.The speed was astonishingly fast, beyond the scope of normal people. At the moment when Chaos was approaching, they sank into the mud, and emerged from the mud again, turning into an iron wall to enclose Chaos in the middle.

"You bastards, you actually fooled me like a fool."

Plasma dripped, and a huge black shadow appeared behind Bai Lie. In an instant, countless winds scattered and surged, cutting the soldier's body over and over again, and falling crookedly into the mud.

The white arm stretched out again, pulling the piece of meat and swallowing it into the mud.

Gu Xuancheng stood in front of the altar with a deep and cold face. He unfolded the steel fan, and the black shadows were pulled by him and quickly coiled, engulfing the corpses piled on the altar, and then pulled and moved.

more and more.

On the surrounding streets and in the water, there are soldiers and poor people in common clothes. They are walking dead, just like this, they are approaching chaos step by step.

"Xuan Cheng!"

In desperation, Wei Ling couldn't help him to act recklessly, so he could only forcefully seal him to restrain Hell Gate from continuing to kill innocent people indiscriminately.

But just as he was about to leave, suddenly the snow rolled around, and the killing intent was approaching, Wei Ling took a step back, Wang Chuan raised his sword, and blocked the approaching corpse in the gorgeous net fire entanglement.

The gates of hell are creeping.

Wei Ling's eyes were piercing, and he swung the sword in his hand, cutting off those arms that were approaching. The curse itself is extremely corrosive, and he has no advantage if he stays in it for a long time.

However, there were too many corpses around him, and he couldn't move the magic under the control of the gate of hell. If there was a slight fluctuation, the breath of resentment would stare at him, rushing towards him like a torrential flood.

At this moment, Bai Lie's figure appeared in a flash, and the chaos surged into dense clouds, and the silver gun dropped from his hand swept across, precisely crushing the heads of those evil spirits.

"The gate of hell is for you." Bai Lie's voice was low, his eyes were empty: "The rest...give it to me."

Wei Ling was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that Bai Lie still had his mind, but the situation in front of him did not allow him to ask more questions. In an instant, Bai Lie's silver spear dragged the heavy corpse, and rushed towards the enemy.

"sister in law!!"

Shen Feihuan's shout came from a distance, he stepped on the body parts, stepped on tens of thousands of arms, countless silver threads intertwined, and entangled those cursed things tightly together.

"Who is your name?" Seeing him approaching, Wei Ling asked him.

"I'm calling you." The blood on Shen Feihuan's body was not wiped clean, and she still smiled very cutely.

While the two were talking, skeletons of fiasco began to pour out from the mud covered by tens of thousands of arms. Shen Feihuan felt a chill in his heart. He had just recovered, and rushed to help before he fully recovered. Which hell gate—— It's really not a joke, mortals fall into it as if they are sinking into the abyss, and it is extremely difficult to catch their breath.

Sure enough, Shen Feihuan soon couldn't hold on to the pile of filth, and the corpses under his feet were sinking, and it seemed that they were about to submerge Shen Feihuan's feet.

Wei Ling said to him, "Do you still remember the trick we used in the Jinchuan Cave?"

Shen Feihuan blinked and quickly understood Wei Ling's meaning.

"of course."

He pulled the silver wires and interlaced them above the wandering corpses, then jumped to the top and intertwined the steel wires under his feet, forming a support that could temporarily stabilize the body.

"Ugh-"

The murmur of countless dead souls came from the mud.

Immediately, golden light streaks spread, igniting layers of pure fire along the silver thread, covering the sky and the earth, mottled, and heavy snow fell, unexpectedly also dyed in the midair with the fire light intertwining the sky and the earth.

"woo woo woo woo……"

The corpse's head bumped against the brazier and made a murmuring, inaudible sound.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

Amidst the stammering cries for help, the gate of hell shook again, and a large piece of white rose from the black mud, like lava spewing from the bank of a quiet lake. It was the swaying arms of countless dead souls, their heads, and their desperate roars exposed in the air.

Among them, Wei Ling even saw the faces of many children.

Half of them were lying in the mud, their eyes were hollow, and their skin was dead white. They stretched out their hands to grab the silver threads in the air, and again and again, their bodies were cut, burned, and slowly shattered like charred wood.

"Ah ah ah ah..."

Gu Xuancheng in front of the altar was wrapped in the purification fire, and the dead body was full of fear and let out an uneasy scream.

The dead are afraid of the pure fire.

Shen Feihuan took the opportunity to approach, the silver thread blended with the pure fire, and wrapped around Gu Xuancheng with his movements.

This is the best chance to suppress the gate of hell.

Shen Feihuan didn't hesitate, and Yinsi quickly gathered the net fire.

Gu Xuancheng's body was trembling, he turned his head in a daze in the heavy snow, the mixed black stripes had already covered his body, the whites of his eyes turned black, empty, like a dead person.

Then, a powerful airflow burst from it, and the gate of hell spread rapidly, raising the net fire and breaking the silver thread.

Wei Ling didn't have time to see everything around him clearly, only to see the soldiers covered in black mud, blood streaming down their face, then disappeared, and the prostrate civilians swept among them, and they didn't even have time to groan.

Shen Feihuan didn't run away, he saw Bai Lie's trembling hands, he pulled out the sword at his waist, and when he got up, he was like a lone wolf running like lightning, piercing through the darkness the moment the net fire went out, and approaching Gu Xuancheng right in front of him.

"Master, Master."

Gu Xuancheng had black tears in his eyes, his hands were trembling, and he was looking for Wei Ling's direction in a daze.

The surrounding black shadows were cut into pieces by Bai Lie, and more black shadows surrounded them and were torn apart.That light path - in a short period of time, made Wei Ling seem familiar.He suddenly remembered that when he and Bai Lie fell into the demon realm, in the dark snake's belly, it was this intertwining that made them turn into dark sharp blades to cut off the evil spirits.

Wei Ling took a deep breath, and when she stepped forward, Wang Chuan Sword came out with her.

Realizing that Wei Ling was going to attack him, Gu Xuancheng opened his eyes wide in astonishment.

The veins all over his body swelled wildly, and countless eyes opened in the sky and the ground.

"Master."

A huge white light fell from the sky, and countless fluttering snowflakes seemed to be given life, rapidly expanding into a bright magic circle in the darkness shrouded by the gate of hell.The color was so dazzling that it filled the space between heaven and earth.

Gu Xuancheng was stunned for a moment, this scene seemed familiar to him.

"Master."

He cried out in a low voice, and the filthy streaks crawled into his eyes, as if he was a clay figurine that had fallen into a puddle, melting little by little in front of Wei Ling.

Soon, there was only a flood of dark purple light left in front of my eyes.

That is--

Is that...the center of the gates of hell...? !

Wei Ling was stunned, and an inexplicable fear climbed all over her body.The purple-black thing that was constantly absorbing, seemed to be luring him to approach, constantly releasing strange light.

"Master, accept me..."

Gu Xuancheng's voice surrounded Wei Ling from all directions, and the black shadow became longer and longer, as if everything had disappeared.

Shen Feihuan, Bai Lie, the corpse, and those miserable wailings.

The world escapes into darkness, this is the endless abyss.

"A Ling, why are you so careless?"

When the black smoke rose, the temporarily static world was torn apart by the whistling sound again, and the demon core hanging in the air gave birth to black thorns, one, two, many, and the mud from the gate of hell quickly climbed up the demon core The surroundings seemed to want to protect his master, but unfortunately the people behind him did not give this opportunity.

"The only person in this world who can swallow you will always be me."

When Xia Zhou appeared, Wei Ling didn't notice it at all. The moment the gate of hell closed, his consciousness seemed to be cut off from it. He didn't have time to see Xia Zhou's face clearly, but he stubbornly grabbed Xia Zhou's clothes. But after catching it for a long time, I only caught a grain of smoke, which disappeared between my fingers in an instant.

"Xia Zhou."

Wei Ling was calling his name, feeling empty in her heart, as if afraid that he would just disappear.

"Xia Zhou, wait."

He held the wisp of smoke and dust in the palm of his hand, it was illusory, and it dissipated as soon as he touched it.

Suddenly, there seemed to be light in the darkness.

He saw a familiar figure in that light, like a long-drunk dream, so thin, so lonely.

However, when the peripheral vision was scattered, those reddish eyes seemed to have met him countless times, with the disturbing tenderness, and the lingering throbbing in his heart.

……

……
