Spirit Realm Walker

The paper man's face was dull and stiff, lifeless, and the two bright red spots in his pale eyes stared directly at the bottom of the bed.

At this moment, Zhang Yuanqing's heart twitched violently, fine goose bumps appeared on his arms, and a long-lost fear surged into his heart.

This kind of fear is not simply a fear of crisis, but more of a human fear of grotesque and thrilling elements.

For example, after watching a horror movie, I dare not go out to go to the bathroom, and I have to cover my head with a quilt when sleeping.

Yes, Zhang Yuanqing was scared out of his childhood fears by the paper man.

I have never encountered this kind of situation since I became a night wandering god.

The "Night Tour" skill is magical and omnipotent. He has encountered enemies who have used skills to restrain the Night Tour, but this is the first time he has directly seen through the Wraiths of the Night Tour.

Yes, Zhang Yuanqing was extremely sure that Zhizharen had seen him.

He was extremely frightened, but he acted without any hesitation. He rolled away from the bottom of the bed, grabbed into the void, took out the explosive pistol, and calmly pulled the trigger.

The paper man has a physical body and can be destroyed if it has a physical body. A long-range shooting pistol is most suitable.

According to the properties of the rouge box, the evil spirit can only possess the rouged object. If the possessed object is destroyed, it should be able to "solve" the paper man.

Give it a try!

"Bang bang bang~"

The muzzle of the gun spewed out flames, and the dark red ballistic paths hit the paper figure. However, the bullet did not explode, but made a slight boiling sound of "Puff".

Like a soldering iron dipped into a mire.

Deep and rich Yin Qi rose around the paper figure. When the bullet hit it, the kinetic energy was dissolved, the flame was extinguished and disappeared.

Zhang Yuanqing's pupils were slightly dilated due to the almost substantial Yin Qi.

This is definitely not a power that a resentful spirit in the extraordinary stage can possess.

"Bang bang bang"

Zhang Yuanqing maintained his shooting posture, letting the bullets penetrate the Yin Qi densely, splashing a dark red light and making a boiling sound of "Puff".

At the same time, two dim red lights emerged in the dark room.

Ta da, da da.

The red dancing shoes fell off together, and she kept walking in place.

Zhang Yuanqing immediately issued an order to hunt down the paper man.

"Da da da"

The red dancing shoes ran out at high speed and stepped on the paper man's face hard and accurately.

The rich Yin Qi swayed violently, like the surface of a lake being stirred up by water.

The face of the paper man was intact, and the red dancing shoes could not penetrate the yin energy surrounding it.

But Red Dance Shoes did not give up and launched an attack tirelessly.

Facing this level of resentful spirits, the output of the red dancing shoes is not enough. Zhang Yuanqing is not surprised. He knows the limits of the red dancing shoes very well. Summoning them is purely to interfere with the resentful spirits and increase the pressure on the enemy.

Zhang Yuanqing quickly reviewed his props and methods. He first thought of the red hijab, and then gave up. The ghost bride's yin energy was much worse than the paper man in front of him.

And he didn't have the guts to fight the paper man in close combat.

The fatal kick of the Hou Mu Boots can kick out the power of the saint. It should not be difficult to use it to destroy the paper man. Zhang Yuanqing grabbed the Hou Tu Boots without hesitation and threw it to the Dead One beside him.

The deceased No. 1 put his feet into the boot cuffs and finished wearing them, while Zhang Yuanqing himself put on the yin and yang robe.

Thump thump thump. Dead No. 1 sprinted with heavy steps. When it was about to hit someone, the boot of its right foot lit up with a thick, solid yellow light.

The muscles in his right leg suddenly swelled, splitting his trousers.

Snapped!

The whip leg pulled out the afterimage in the air, and the paper hit people and shattered like a reflection, and the force of the leg set off a strong wind in the room.

The paper-pricked person disappeared, and the one kicked to pieces by the Dead One was the shadow created by illusion. This kind of ghostly technique is most handy when used by resentful spirits.

Da da da. The red dancing shoes suddenly ran towards their owner.

Behind me? ! Zhang Yuanqing's heart trembled.

Almost at the same time, a paper man with a pale face and smeared with bright red rouge appeared behind him, raised his stiff arms, and grabbed the back of the human's neck.

Before the simple hand tied with paper could touch it, a cold breath rushed in first, and a thin layer of frost formed on Zhang Yuanqing's back and neck.

"boom!"

He raised the muzzle of his gun and shot Dead One in the chest.

The bullet exploded and there was a flash of fire.

With a "whoosh", a stream of crimson fire sprang up and engulfed Zhang Yuanqing's body. Just as the flames from the exploding bullet were about to extinguish, they suddenly expanded and condensed into a figure wearing a yin and yang robe.

He put on the robe of yin and yang, not to use the water and fire formation, but to use the fire master's fire power and the water ghost's ability to transform water to entangle the paper man.

Water and fire clones ignore physical attacks, but cannot ignore damage at the spiritual level.

Facing a powerful resentful spirit, it is very foolish to unfold the magic robe formation, because the spirit body is divided into two, which is quite a waste of martial arts, and will be instantly killed by the powerful resentful spirit.

When dealing with ghost dolls, the main problem is that there are not enough people, so you have to use clones to get together. As long as the number of people reaches the target, the ghost dolls cannot attack.

But paper figures are different.

Zhang Yuanqing's palm burst into flames, and he pressed it on the back of his neck. His face immediately twisted, the corners of his mouth twitched, the force behind him made a "chichi" sound, and green smoke billowed out.

Hiss, this Yin Qi can "freeze" my flesh and blood tissue to death. If caught by it, the Night Travel God will not be able to bear it. Zhang Yuanqing used flames to dispel the Yin Qi. His other hand was not idle, and he kept pulling the trigger.

At the same time, communicating with the imprint in the sea of ​​consciousness, the spirit body split into two, entered the Infernal Corpse, and launched a heavy and powerful sprint.

Zhang Yuanqing stopped shooting, put his fingers into his trouser pockets, and pressed one of the buttons on the Elvis Presley speaker.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The deafening drum beats echoed in the room, bringing a huge sense of oppression, shaking the spirit, and making people fear from the bottom of their hearts.

The paper man's body trembled, then froze.

Bang, bang, bang, Dead No. 1 approached with heavy steps, and the boot of his right foot lit up with a thick, solid yellow light.

From the previous fight, Zhang Yuanqing discovered that the paper man was very afraid of the "fatal kick" of the Hou Mu boots. After all, this kick could reach the level of a saint.

Therefore, he quickly made a plan to use the drum sound from Elvis Presley speakers to scare the paper man as a wraith spirit. The reason why the spirit body was divided into two is because the drum sound does not distinguish between friend and foe. The Dead Man No. 1 is not immune, only he, the master, can.

As soon as the muscles of Dead Man One's right leg become thicker, he will kick out his whip kick.

Suddenly, the two flashes of blood in the paper man's eyes suddenly lit up, condensing into two twisted and weird spells.

Bewitching eyes! !

Zhang Yuanqing's heart sank as he looked directly at the curse through the perspective of the Inferi. The next moment, his will was completely confused, his thoughts were like a mess, and he lost the ability to think calmly.

The Yin Qi surrounding the paper man swelled, and with a continuous "click" sound, a thin ice shell condensed on the surface of Dead Man No. 1, quickly swam away, and instantly turned into an ice sculpture.

Then, the paper man tilted his head ninety degrees and looked at Zhang Yuanqing behind the corpse. Its figure immediately disappeared and appeared behind the only human being in the room.

The rough arm tied with paper raised and pinched the back of Zhang Yuanqing's neck.

The yin energy in the room suddenly swayed, and an invisible spiral cyclone emerged on the back of the neck.

Large amounts of essence and blood were drawn away by the cyclone and poured into the paper man's body. Its pale face actually showed a bit of human ruddyness.

Under the strong stimulation, Zhang Yuanqing broke free from the influence of the Bewitching Eye, and immediately felt his limbs stiff and numb. His body was frozen by the terrible Yin Qi, and he could barely move his fingers.

Within a few breaths, Zhang Yuanqing's skin lost its luster and became dry and dull. Then, a few fine wrinkles crept up to the corners of his eyes and forehead, and the nasolabial folds deepened and worsened.

He suddenly aged twenty years.

Zhang Yuanqing desperately issued attack orders to the Inferi, but Dead One was in a frozen state, with his joints and flesh numb from freezing, unable to support his master.

The attempt failed, the paper man could not defeat him, and the difference in strength was too big. Zhang Yuanqing discovered pessimistically and desperately that the plan to push the mini-boss by force was not realistic.

Even though he had so many props and so many tactics, he still couldn't defeat the paper man.

Then the only option was to use the Demon-Conquering Pestle. Zhang Yuanqing didn't want to use this item unless he had to. Drinking poison to quench his thirst couldn't solve the problem, but he had no choice now. Drinking poison to quench his thirst could at least keep him alive for a while.

Feeling weakness and exhaustion in his bones, Zhang Yuanqing made a desperate move, gathering up the last bit of strength, and slowly and tremblingly put his fingers into his trouser pocket, intending to turn on the suona of the Elvis speaker.

He wanted to use this to make this body shine again and regain a certain amount of strength so that after taking out the magic pestle, he would have enough energy to attack the paper man.

His fingers reached in and pressed against the suona button. At this moment, a question suddenly flashed through Zhang Yuanqing's mind: How did the Demon Lord defeat it?

The level of the paper man obviously does not belong to the extraordinary stage. No matter how strong the demon king is, as a casual cultivator, his overall strength in the extraordinary stage is not necessarily stronger than mine. Even I have no hope, so how can he pass this level?

In a flash of lightning, fragments of information in the copy flashed rapidly in Zhang Yuanqing's mind.

Finally, two important pieces of information were filtered out:

1: On the night when Mr. Xu bought the rouge box, the paper man only killed Mr. Xu, and the villagers next door were not harmed.

Two: The resentful spirit has a strong desire for blood, and only by sacrificing enough blood essence can it be appeased.

I understand, the rouge box can only kill one person a night, or the blood of one person can satisfy it. After draining the target's blood, it will not kill anyone again, so the only person who died that day was Mr. Xu. This is a single person. Dungeon, for spiritual realm walkers, killing just one person is almost equal to death. Zhang Yuanqing released his finger on the suona sound button and grabbed it in the air instead.

He grabbed a glass test tube and found a clear golden liquid in the test tube.

The mouth of the test tube was sealed with a cork, and the strong breath of life was firmly sealed in the test tube.

Essence of life!

A seemingly real and illusory figure floated out from Zhang Yuanqing's body, wrapped in a glass test tube, and swept towards the Dead No. 1.

This illusory figure is Zhang Yuanqing's spirit body. He used his fugue to escape from his body.

Zhang Yuanqing planned to take a gamble and let his body be drained of essence and blood to see whether the paper man would leave with satisfaction after "killing" the people, or continue to attack the deceased No. 1.

If it is the former, then he has won the bet. If it is the latter, his spirit body will immediately use the life liquid to save his physical body, and then summon the demon pestle to die with this resentful spirit.

He dared to make such a bet. On the one hand, he had the original liquid of life in hand, and on the other hand, after using the fugue, the physical body would enter a state of suspended animation. The spirit body would return within twenty minutes, and there was hope of saving the physical body.

So there is no fear of the essence and blood being sucked dry.

Zhang Yuanqing is not afraid that the paper man will attack his spirit body first, because the item information of Blood Rouge mentions that the paper man only desires blood. Although the Dead One is a ghost, at least it has the breath of "life".

It's never the spirit body's turn to face the crisis.

To take a step back, if the paper man really attacks himself in the spirit state, Zhang Yuanqing has another trick, which is to immediately return to the physical body, let the red dancing shoes activate the second form, and escape with him.

When it comes to escaping and dodging, Emperor Hongwu has never been weaker than anyone else in his life.

At this time, the flesh body has shriveled up rapidly, the cheeks are sunken, the skin is full of wrinkles due to lack of water, and it is gradually transforming into a mummy.

Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but hold his breath (mentally). He didn't know if the Demon Lord had used a similar method, but this was the only way he could break the situation based on the information in the copy.

One person and one spirit body watched nervously, but the red dancing shoe was unconvinced and continued to attack the paper man. It even became angry because of the death of its master's physical body. It trampled more frequently and seemed to be more ferocious in power.

Finally, the body was completely turned into a mummy, and the majestic Yuanshi Tianzun died at the hands of the resentful spirit.

The rouge on the face of the paper man who has absorbed the essence and blood becomes more and more vivid.

"Pa ta ~" It let go of its crude and simple hand and let the shriveled corpse fall.

The paper man stiffly turned his head and looked at Dead Man One.

After about ten seconds of silence, the paper man walked stiffly towards the door with a soft "rustling" sound.

It stopped killing.

The red dancing shoes follow him like a shadow, chasing the paper man relentlessly.

My bet was right, it was lifted. Zhang Yuanqing stopped its never-ending pursuit.

Watching the feet wearing embroidered shoes crossing the threshold and walking into the darkness step by step, Zhang Yuanqing, who was in the spiritual state, still tensed up and did not relax his vigilance.

After about five minutes, there was silence inside and outside the house, and there was no movement in the thick darkness.

No, there is movement.

The red dancing shoes wandered around the room, sometimes stopping next to the physical body, sometimes stopping next to the spiritual body, and a message appeared above:

【Will you dance with me.】

But it doesn't know whether to ask for payment from the dead body or from the spirit that cannot dance.

It's the first time it encounters this bug.

He should have left. Zhang Yuanqing finally couldn't wait to float to the physical body, pulled out the cork with a "pop" sound, pried open the stiff lower jaw of the physical body, and directly inserted the test tube deep into the throat.

This is because the physical body cannot swallow.

When all the life liquid in the test tube entered the body's stomach bag, Zhang Yuanqing pulled it out, and there was another "pop" sound.

After a while, the dry skin gradually became plump, and the loose skin was propped up by flesh and blood. Every second that passed, the body became plumper.

This process lasted for more than ten seconds, and the skin was not only completely restored, but also became more supple and smooth, as if it had been reborn.

But there was no breathing, no heartbeat.

When the spirit body of the night wanderer leaves the body, the physical body is like this. This is the state of suspended animation.

Only then did Zhang Yuanqing feel truly relieved and threw himself into his physical body.

The next second, his fleshly body opened his eyes, and his pupils stared at the roof with laxity, and then quickly contracted, and he gasped for breath, like a drowning person recovering his heartbeat.

At this time, Dead Man One completely expels the Yin Qi from his body, and his joints regain their sensitivity.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo"

"It's too difficult. This can't be an A-level dungeon. I don't want to do anything. I want to take a rest. No one can disturb me!" Zhang Yuanqing breathed in the fresh air greedily.

Then, he heard a brisk "ta-da" sound echoing in his ears.

You are an exception. Zhang Yuanqing's expression froze and he got up silently.

After dancing with the red shoes, Zhang Yuanqing sat down on the edge of the bed. This was not to rest, but because sitting was more conducive to thinking.

Although Zhang Yuanqing narrowly escaped from the crisis of the paper man, he was not happy at all because he had realized that something was wrong.

"Is this an A-level dungeon? It's even more brutal than an S-level dungeon. The paper man on the second night almost let me use up all my cards. Where's the boss on the third night? Where's the princess?"

The difficulty level of Aphasia Village is completely beyond the scope of A level.

Even among the S-class, they are probably the most ferocious echelon.

This is obviously unreasonable.

Zhang Yuanqing frowned deeply:

"There's something weird about this copy. There must be something wrong somewhere. I have to find out the problem before the third watch, otherwise I'm dead."

Taking a deep breath to regain his composure, he reviewed all the details after entering the instance.

The conversation with Wang Xiaoer, the conversation with the old man, the communication with Elvis Presley speakers, and the details of what I saw and heard.

Time passed slowly, and as he reviewed it again and again, he vaguely grasped something, but it was not clear enough.

Zhang Yuanqing was not in a hurry. After grasping the vague thought, he took out a few small blue pills from his trouser pocket, held them in the palm of his hand, and then recalled his father's remains in his mind.

His brain power slowly boiled, and his heart began to beat overload. He quickly entered a "super brain" state, with messy memory fragments flashing quickly, and his ears were filled with meaningless noises.

The nasal cavity becomes hot and bright red blood flows out.

Zhang Yuanqing immediately swallowed the pills to calm these negative states.

Then, since entering the dungeon, I replayed all the scenes, frame by frame, the texture of the stone house, and the direction in which the withered grass fell on the roadside, in detail, and rehearsed it in my mind.

"Some time ago, I met a wandering Taoist priest. He said that the back mountain is a geomantic treasure land and there must be a big tomb in the mountain."

"Villager Wang Xiaoer stole the burial items and planned to sell them to a wealthy family in the provincial capital. Unexpectedly, that night, she came out with him."

"At the fourth watch, everyone in the village was dead."

"The location of the ancient tomb is twenty-three miles southwest of the back mountain."

"Run, run away~"

Zhang Yuanqing suddenly woke up and exited the "playback" state. His eyes widened and he was enlightened.

"I understand the real gameplay of this copy"

ps: typos will be corrected first and then tomorrow morning’s chapter will be postponed to the evening.
