Chapter 178 It's surprising, right? I'm still a master of the spirit.

Waves of weakness came over me.
"I can't last long after all!" Qin Ziling felt the passion in his body fade away, and a feeling of weakness came over him, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Otherwise, relying solely on the power of martial arts, he might really be able to kill a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining.
But there is still a lot of difference now.
“Hoo, hoo!” Long Xiaotian did not rush forward immediately, but took two deep breaths, then showed a smug and ferocious smile, looked at Qin Ziling and said: “What’s wrong, little thief, you can’t fight anymore? Come on! Get up and fight again!”
"Old thief, you are the elder of Jinlie Sect and a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining. It's really unmannerly of you to act like a villain!" Qin Ziling panted and said sarcastically.
Long Xiaotian was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that he had fought too fiercely in this battle, so he lost his composure for a moment.
But at this time, Long Xiaotian could not care so much, and quickly grinned and said: "You are about to die, and you still have the mood to care about my demeanor! Tell me, how do you want to die?
If you want to die quickly, you should now hand over the space treasure on your body and explain where and how you got it.
If you don't want to die a quick death, that's easy. I'm old, experienced, and skilled, and I will definitely make you want to die!"
"Old thief, are you so sure that it's me who will die and not you?" Qin Ziling stood up slowly and asked with a smile.
“I don’t deny that you have strong water-type true energy, and your wood-type cultivation has also reached the late stage of true energy. But these are still a long way from your martial arts. At best, they can only allow you to struggle to death and linger for a while.” Long Xiaotian said with a smile.
"Are you so sure that I have no other Taoism except water and wood?" Qin Ziling asked with a smile again.
Long Xiaotian's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and his eyes suddenly became alert.
But soon, Long Xiaotian burst into laughter.
"I was almost fooled by you, little thief! The aptitude of three spiritual roots can only be regarded as barely squeezing into the Qi Refining Dao. You practice both Taoism and martial arts, and you can even reach the late stage of true strength at the same time with the water and wood Taoist methods. This is already extremely amazing.
Could it be that with the aptitude of three spiritual roots, you can cultivate a higher level of Taoism? If you say that you have only one spiritual root and then practice both Taoism and martial arts, based on your outstanding performance just now, I still believe that you can cultivate to the true essence realm in Qi Refining. "Long Xiaotian said.
"Ginger is indeed more experienced than others. It seems that I can't deceive you. In the way of Qi training, I really only know the water and wood elements of Taoism, so I can only rely on this to fight stubbornly and struggle desperately."
Qin Ziling shrugged, looking helpless as if he had been seen through, and then raised his hand.
The same old trick.
Twelve Water Cloud Swords wrapped in rolling clouds and mist swept towards Long Xiaotian. The Green Dove Pearl and the Peach Wood Sword were also released by him at the same time, which turned into two green lights and rushed towards Long Xiaotian like lightning.
"Haha! It's just a trifle!" Long Xiaotian laughed loudly upon seeing this. He circulated his strength and his whole body was filled with powerful energy. He looked as if he was wearing a flaming golden armor and looked very majestic.
He raised his Vajra Flame Palm and slapped forward, then instead of retreating, he advanced and charged directly towards the rolling clouds that were sweeping over.
At this moment, the flag that was wrapped in the clouds and mist and blended seamlessly with the clouds and mist suddenly opened.
The flags fluttered in the wind, and clouds that were many times thicker and heavier than the Water Cloud Sword Formation rolled in, covering the area where Long Xiaotian was.
Long Xiaotian slapped his palm, but failed to disperse the clouds and mist as successfully as before.
The clouds retreated like waves, then surged up again.
"The Xuantian Yunwu Flag of the Biyun Sect! You actually killed Shen Yan of the Biyun Sect!" Long Xiaotian had sharp eyes and naturally discovered the flag at this time, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
"So this flag is called the Xuantian Yunwu Flag. A magic weapon is a magic weapon. Its power is much stronger than my Shuiyun Sword Formation!" Qin Ziling's voice came from outside the clouds.
“Hmph, if this Xuantian Cloud and Mist Flag is unleashed by a great Qi Refiner in the middle stage of True Yuan, once it covers me, I may have to go through some trouble. But no matter how strong your True Yuan is, you are only in the late stage of True Yuan after all. You want to trap me with just a magic weapon? It’s nothing but a fool’s dream!” Long Xiaotian sneered.
The two palms clapped together repeatedly, and strong force gushed out. The illusory flames were even more ferocious than the real flames. The thick clouds and mist were hit by the Vajra Flame Palm, and they melted and dispersed like clouds and mist encountering sunlight, becoming thinner and thinner.
"Haha, little thief, just use whatever tricks you have!" Seeing that he was about to break out of the clouds, Long Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.
"Okay, as you wish!" A helpless voice came from outside the clouds.
A disdainful sneer appeared on Long Xiaotian's lips.
Naturally, he didn't believe what Qin Ziling said.
But immediately afterwards, Long Xiaotian's expression changed slightly.
Because just as he slapped away the clouds in front of him, a huge silver fist suddenly appeared in front of him.
The fist shone with silver light as it swung violently across the void. Air waves rolled to both sides, and the air made crackling sounds.
An extremely cold and powerful force approached instantly.
Not only that, there was also an equally cold and powerful force coming from behind him, pressing through his body!
And the top of the head!
"Silver corpse!" Long Xiaotian's face finally changed drastically, he exclaimed in shock, with a hint of panic in his eyes.
But at this time, Long Xiaotian had no time to panic. All his strength rushed out, and he jumped up. He slapped his palms toward the sky, and at the same time, he kicked left and right with his legs to meet the oncoming fists.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!" The sound of metal clashing suddenly rang out in the valley.
In just a moment, Long Xiaotian exchanged seven or eight palm strikes with the four heads that swooped down, and kicked seven or eight times with his legs.
After all, Long Xiaotian is a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining. He has great strength, which also includes bone strength.
After a full-scale resistance, the four heads and the great ape were defeated.
The Four Heads and the Great Ape and the Second Ape had just left when the rolling clouds and mist reappeared and enveloped Long Xiaotian.
Not only were there twelve Water Cloud Swords constantly shuttling back and forth in the clouds and stabbing, but the clouds and mist released by the Xuantian Cloud and Mist Flag were also thick and cold. When they wrapped around people, they were like a lot of ice chips constantly trying to drill into the body, freezing the blood in one's meridians.
Long Xiaotian was protected by a powerful shield. The mist released by the Xuantian Cloud Flag could not penetrate his skin. The Shuiyun Sword made a clanging sound when it stabbed at the powerful shield, but could not hurt his body.
However, the energy barrier was constantly rippling, and Long Xiaotian needed to constantly circulate and release energy in order to maintain the barrier.
Feeling the strength in his body rushing out like water, waves of weakness came over him, and his arms and legs felt a little sore and numb. Long Xiaotian's expression changed from gloomy to bright, his facial muscles kept twitching and twisting, and his narrow eyes revealed an extremely solemn look.
There are three silver corpses. The one in the air is not only hard to guard against, but its strength is comparable to that of a powerful martial artist in the middle stage of bone refining.
The two silver corpses on the ground were a little weaker, but they were already close to the great martial artist in the middle stage of bone refining.
Moreover, the silver corpses are good at head-on confrontations and are not afraid of pain or death!
The three silver corpses surrounded Long Xiaotian, almost as if he was facing an opponent of the same level but slightly weaker strength and was desperately besieging him.
If it were his , Long Xiaotian would not be afraid.
But now more than half of his strength has been consumed, and he didn't have his weapon, the Golden Flame Sword, with him. Also, there was a perverted guy lurking outside who was as meticulous and cunning as an old fox.
This guy's powerful true power has not yet truly exploded.
It would have been fine if there were no three silver corpses, but under the siege of the three silver corpses, the perverted guy's timely attack with magical weapons and magic treasures was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
This made Long Xiaotian's confidence begin to waver, and he even had a hint of cowardice and retreat.
But just as Long Xiaotian had the slightest thought of retreating, the three silver corpses came back again, and their huge silver fists and claws whizzed towards him.
Long Xiaotian used his fists and feet, roared continuously, and expended a wave of energy and blood to repel the three silver corpses.
But soon after, a sky full of mist, carrying twelve flying swords and two green cold lights, suddenly came and briefly stopped and trapped Long Xiaotian.
Then there were three silver corpses.
This cycle repeats itself over and over again.
Long Xiaotian was so depressed that he almost vomited blood!
"I didn't expect that after decades of wandering around the world, I would be tricked by a young man like you today!" Long Xiaotian said while charging forward, panting heavily, his facial expression becoming more and more distorted and hideous.
"You old thief, you're going too far. It was you who came to kill me for no reason and I had no choice but to fight back. How can you say that I was plotting against you?" Outside the thick fog, Qin Ziling said slowly while gnawing on the hard barbecued Huachi meat to replenish his strength.
At this point, as long as nothing unexpected happens, Qin Ziling is confident that he can keep Long Xiaotian.
Because he still has a trump card that he has not yet used, and that is the art of spirit and soul.
Moreover, after the pattern on the chest appeared, Qin Ziling had already tested the sequelae of activating it, so this time in the Dragon Vein World, he also specially prepared some Huachi barbecue in the corpse-raising ring.
Although it is cold and hurts your teeth, the value of Huachi barbecue lies in the pure energy it contains. Eating some can quickly replenish your strength.
Therefore, in addition to the soul-spirit technique, which is his trump card, Qin Ziling's martial arts prowess is also recovering rapidly.
"Little thief, do you think you can keep me here like this?" Long Xiaotian said sinisterly, a look of determination flashed in his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, the white of his pupils turned from white to black.
Then a long black banner appeared out of thin air in front of Long Xiaotian.
The long black banner spread out in the wind, with a hint of evil, darkness, devouring, fear, despair and other strange auras emanating from the banner.
The handle of the long banner is more than one foot long, and at the end of the handle is a demon head with two horns.
One side of the demon had a calm and peaceful expression, as if able to bring people a feeling of peace, tranquility and relaxation, while the other side was indescribably hideous and terrifying, and even the eyeballs of that side seemed to be releasing an endless murderous light.
As soon as the black banner appeared, the demon's horns pierced into Long Xiaotian's left chest with a "puff" sound.
Blood gushed out instantly.
The demon at the end of the pole seemed to come alive, greedily sucking blood.
As the demon sucked blood, the long banner continued to grow larger. Black fog rolled on the dark banner surface, and ferocious roars came from the depths of the black fog, as if someone had opened the gates of hell and a demon was about to rush out.
As the blood flowed out, Long Xiaotian's face turned extremely pale, as if he had suffered a serious illness.
Not only that, his facial expression became more and more ferocious, and his eyes had turned completely black, revealing an extremely strange and evil aura.
At this moment, Long Xiaotian seemed to have completely turned into a different person.
Suddenly the sun disappeared from the sky.
The valley was pitch black.
In the darkness, a three-meter-tall god or demon walked out of the long banner.
This god and demon is very similar to the demon head at the end of the long banner.
There are two horns on his head, and the two sides of his face give people completely opposite feelings.
On one side, there is peace and tranquility, making people completely relaxed and at ease; on the other side, there is endless devouring, killing, darkness, and despair...
But in the blink of an eye, the peaceful and harmonious side of the gods and demons completely disappeared, and was completely transformed into darkness, swallowing up murderous despair...
This is already a demon, a devil!
"Bang!" The four-headed claws grabbed the demon hard, making a dull explosion sound.
The demon turned into a ball of black mist and dispersed, but the next moment it reunited in another place in the air, and then pounced towards Qin Ziling who was standing on a tall rock.
“Little thief, this is a demon that I created using the souls of thousands of living beings. It has no physical form, so your zombies can’t kill it, but it will kill you!
Even if I can't kill you in a short time, I can make you unable to control the silver corpse. Without your control, even if the three silver corpses are powerful, what can they do? "Long Xiaotian said ferociously, his dark eyes revealing deep hatred and madness.
He was holding back on using this method, not only because he was afraid that the news might leak out, but most importantly, this method would have a huge backlash effect on him!
But Qin Ziling's strength was far beyond his imagination, and he was eventually forced to release the Dark Blood Soul Refining Banner that he had kept hidden.
Looking at the demon in the darkness holding a sharp black trident and rushing towards him, Qin Ziling's expression was very subtle and weird.
This was the first time he had encountered someone using the soul technique to attack him since he had been secretly practicing the soul technique.
But this is not the soul that Long Xiaotian cultivated himself, but a soul that was refined by using evil magic and the souls of thousands of living beings. It is very different from his soul technique.
There is no realm for this soul, but it is very powerful.
From the head-on clash with the four warriors just now, it was not difficult to feel that in terms of strength alone, he was already close to a great martial artist in the middle stage of Bone Refining.
The key point is that this soul is an invisible body. It can fly, disperse, and gather. It is very difficult to kill. Moreover, every attack of this demon can affect people's souls, making people uneasy.
So if we really talk about combat power, even a great martial artist in the middle stage of bone refining would fall at the hands of this demon.
A gust of cold wind blew over, and the devil came with a trident in his hand and killed him in an instant.
"You dare to show off your mere evil tricks in front of Master Qin!" Qin Ziling saw the devil rushing towards him in an instant, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and for some reason he felt a little bit of evil interest. He shouted with a burst of domineering aura, and then a golden light flashed behind his head.
As soon as the golden light was released, the darkness dissipated like clouds and mist as soon as it touched the golden light and retreated.
The golden light became brighter and brighter, and in the middle of the golden light a majestic and grand palace appeared, floating in the void like a mirage, just like the legendary heavenly palace.
Then, one after another, divine generals dressed in golden armor, holding golden axes, swords, halberds and other divine weapons, rushed out of the palace in a majestic manner.
As these divine soldiers and generals charged out, the void and darkness covering the sky and earth was instantly shattered and completely faded away. Only a three-meter-tall demon holding a trident was left. It looked stupidly at the "Heaven" army that suddenly rushed out and subconsciously retreated.
Although this demon was very powerful, he had a natural fear of the divine soldiers and generals that Qin Ziling visualized in his state of distraction, just like a bandit encountering government soldiers .
"You, you are actually a master of the soul! And you are even in the realm of distraction!" Long Xiaotian, who was being besieged by three silver corpses, was just like an ordinary person who saw a ghost in broad daylight. He was finally shocked and screamed with fear on his face.
When masters fight, there is no room for loss of concentration.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Long Xiaotian lost his mind and was hit by the three silver corpses. The protective energy in his body was shaken and cracks appeared faintly.
"Swish!" Four sharp claws clasped down and finally tore open a hole. The sharp claws left a shocking wound on Long Xiaotian's back.
Long Xiaotian staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Seeing this, how could Qin Ziling let go of this great opportunity? Holding the Sky-Splitting Knife in his hand, he leaped up and chopped Long Xiaotian in the head.
The blade light flickered, and wherever the blade passed, the space was turbulent, and air waves rolled back to both sides.
His power, even though not as strong as his peak period just now, was definitely not inferior to that of a great martial artist in the middle stage of bone refining.
Seeing this, Long Xiaotian was filled with shock and disbelief, and quickly dodged to avoid the attack.
But how could the Four Heads, Ape Da and Ape Er allow him to have his way?
They rushed over one after another.
Poor thing, this great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining was besieged by one man and three silver corpses. He dodged the Sky-Splitting Sword that was about to chop him on the head, but one of his arms was cut off at the shoulder.
Ape Da punched him hard in the stomach, and the flesh and blood exploded.
"Ah!" Long Xiaotian screamed and rolled to the ground.
"Are you surprised? I'm also a master of the soul!" Qin Ziling smiled coldly, and without waiting for Long Xiaotian to answer, he swung the knife again.
Long Xiaotian’s head rolled to the ground.
Who knows what other tricks Long Xiaotian has up his sleeve? Of course we have to kill him while he’s sick. There’s no time to delay!
As soon as Long Xiaotian's head rolled to the ground, the demon turned into rolling black gas and retreated into the long banner. At the same time, a ghost escaped from Long Xiaotian's body.
