Volume 1: Questioning the Past Chapter 16: The Golden Bell
"Demonization, you are actually a demon cultivator!"
The middle-aged man was imprisoned in the golden bell light shield, his face was gloomy, and what he feared was really coming true. The other party really had a magical weapon for confinement. He immediately swung the huge hammer, the bell rang, and the light shield shook violently.
Demon cultivators refer to the offspring born from the union of demon beasts and humans after they have transformed. They are neither demons nor beasts, but humans with demon blood. By stimulating the demon blood, they can become demons and greatly increase their strength.
"Eat it! Then, run away!"
Du Siyu shouted loudly, threw a pill at Gu Xiaoxing, and threw another one into his own mouth , without stopping. He then cast several talismans in succession and stuck them on the golden bell covering the middle-aged man. Finally, he took out a red rope and twisted it between his fingers, muttering to himself continuously, fluently and in one go!
Gu Xiaoxing didn't hesitate. He caught the flying pill, held it in his hand, turned around and ran away.
"Don't even think about it!"
The middle-aged man was furious, and he continued to smash the light curtain with the huge hammer. The roar echoed throughout the mountains and forests, and immediately a talisman burned and turned into ashes.
Du Siyu frowned and kept muttering, and the red rope on her fingertips gradually showed signs of melting.
There were a few more roars, and all the talismans were burned out. Only the light curtain covering the middle-aged man was still dazzling. However, as the giant hammer fell again, the light curtain shook violently again, and a tiny crack appeared.
quick!
Du Siyu's eyes were solemn. The red rope had completely melted and turned into a pool of blood floating in the air, which seemed to be solidifying .
Boom! The cracks in the light curtain expanded.
Boom! Several more cracks appeared.
Boom! The light curtain began to crack.
Hurry up, hurry up! It's almost done!
Between Du Siyu's fingers, a small blood-red bell was about to take shape, but the next moment.
Boom! The light curtain shattered.
"I said, forget it!"
The middle-aged man took a step forward and turned into an arrow shot from a bow, and the giant hammer in his hand had the power of thunder.
Is it still too late?
Du Siyu sighed secretly and planned to withdraw Jin Zhongyin and look for another opportunity.
"Du Siyu!"
At this moment, Gu Xiaoxing’s crazy roar was heard.
Amid the whistling sound, the middle-aged man sensed something flying towards him from behind, but he didn't care much. Even if a useless piece of shit at the third level of Qi Condensation threw a flying sword at him, he wouldn't be able to hurt himself or even stop it after recovering his cultivation.
However, what Gu Xiaoxing threw was not a flying sword at all.
But... a person!
The man was covered in blood, as if he had suffered serious injuries before. However, in an instant, the bloody man, who originally had a weak breath, suddenly burst out with a terrible power and slapped out with one palm.
The middle-aged man was suddenly startled, and it was too late for him to turn around. Although he was a physical cultivator, he was hit by this palm and blood spurted out. He flew hundreds of feet away in an instant, stirring up a cloud of dust.
This blow seemed to have consumed all of the bloody man's strength, and he fell to the ground and fell unconscious again.
“This is too fierce…!”
Gu Xiaoxing swallowed, obviously shocked by this scene, but suddenly, his body felt cold and he sensed a sense of malice. He turned his head and found Du Siyu staring at him coldly.
“Hiss…it hurts so much!”
Gu Xiaoxing screamed miserably and quickly went forward to check on the bloody man. Fortunately, he was just unconscious and not dead. He didn't dare to look at Du Siyu again. He silently took out the incense from the storage bag and began to inhale the smoke to heal his wounds, but he was muttering in his heart.
"Isn't it really a tigress? It doesn't look like a tiger's tail! Didn't you just call out her name? What's the point of pretending to eat people? It's all thanks to me..."
Du Siyu had already retracted her gaze and was staring at the blood-red little bell floating in the air between her fingers. As her mind moved, the bell vibrated.
At the same time, inside the Soul-Devouring Sect, there was a tall tower on the main peak. The tower had six floors, and a large golden bell was hung on the top of the tower. Although no one was striking it, the golden bell suddenly vibrated.
Boom...
The melodious sound of the bell echoed throughout the sect.
In an instant, countless disciples looked up at each other, some in bewilderment, but mostly in shock, with a premonition that something was about to happen. The golden bell for the sect's call for help had not rung for a long time.
In the Dark Forest...
Du Siyu came to Gu Xiaoxing. She had returned to her normal appearance, but she still looked at Gu Xiaoxing with an unfriendly look.
Gu Xiaoxing was panicked when he was looked at, but he had survived a disaster. As he relaxed, he began to feel weak. Now thinking back, he didn't know how he could endure such severe pain and fight with others. He said with a bitter face, "Brother Du, do you have any healing pills?"
He did not take the pill that Du Siyu threw to him just now, because he knew it would be useless if he took it. His cultivation was too low and he could not be of much help. Then he suddenly had an idea and remembered that the "traitor" rescued by Du Siyu seemed to be not far away, so he ran over with the mentality of giving it a try, fed him the pill, let him breathe incense, and finally slapped him twice to finally wake him up.
When Gu Xiaoxing rushed over carrying the bloody man, it was the moment when the middle-aged man shattered the light shield. It seemed that it was too late, but the bloody man suddenly said to throw him over.
Of course Gu Xiaoxing did as he was told without hesitation, but he didn't expect the bloody man to be so fierce.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxing's pitiful appearance, and recalling the previous scenes, Du Siyu's expression became extremely complicated again. Finally, she shook her head, handed over a pill, and said, "Let's leave this place first. I always feel that things are not that simple."
Gu Xiaoxing had the same idea and nodded quickly. They were all seriously injured now, and if another group of people suddenly showed up, they would be doomed.
Although I have asked the sect for help, it doesn't mean that help will arrive immediately.
After saying that, Du Siyu took out the wooden boat and lifted the bloody man who was still unconscious on the ground onto it. Then two people also stepped onto the boat. There were three people in the boat, and none of them were in a good condition, covered in wounds and blood.
Du Siyu made a hand gesture and the wooden boat took off with the wind and returned towards the direction of the Soul-Devouring Sect.
"Huh? What is that?"
Gu Xiaoxing suddenly spoke, not because he was sharp-eyed, but because he also felt that things seemed complicated. He also heard what the man said before he died about the elder, and was worried that there were still enemies nearby, so he had been carefully observing his surroundings. After the wooden boat took off, he saw a golden light in the distance, and he couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.
Du Siyu looked in the direction of the voice, her expression changed immediately, and she said, "Not good!"
Then he desperately urged the wooden boat to escape from here. But the golden light was too fast and approached in the blink of an eye, like a golden lightning striking at him.
Seeing that he couldn't dodge in time, Du Siyu gritted his teeth and slapped out with his palm. The strong palm wind was not directed towards the golden light, but towards Gu Xiaoxing and the unconscious bloody man on the wooden boat. The next moment, like a meteor passing through the sky, the wooden boat was directly split into two parts in the air. Even though Du Siyu knew the art of flying, he could hardly control himself under this strong impact. When he was about to fall to the ground, he just managed to steady his body and did not fall.
But Gu Xiaoxing did not have such strength. If it had not been for Du Siyu's palm just now, he would have been smashed to pieces by the golden light. At this moment, he fell straight to the ground with the unconscious blood man, feeling dizzy and his blood boiling. Fortunately, the fall was not too high, so he was able to save his life.
Seeing that they were fine, Du Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, but her expression was not good. She looked up and saw a beetle flapping its wings and floating in the sky. It was a soul-eating insect! Unlike the black soul-eating insect between Yu Gu Xiaoxing's eyebrows, this insect was golden in color. Just floating there, it gave people a feeling of fear and palpitations.
Du Siyu's heart almost sank to the bottom at this breath.
The ninth level of Qi Condensation...the peak!
The Soul-Eating Bug did not launch an attack immediately. It hovered in the air, seemingly sensing everything around it. For a moment, the forest fell into silence, with only the buzzing sound of the Soul-Eating Bug's wings.
Du Siyu stared at it intently, not daring to move, because she knew that if she moved even a little, she would be met with a fatal blow from the soul-eating insect.
Gu Xiaoxing had recovered from his shock by now. He also saw the soul-eating insects above his head and was filled with fear. Although the feeling the insects gave him was not as strong as those of the foundation-building monsters, it was almost the same.
In just a few breaths, the eyes of the Soul-Eating Insect were so small that they were almost invisible, but Gu Xiaoxing felt that it suddenly looked at him, as if some invisible force was sweeping over him. He was filled with fear and wanted to run away, but his whole body was restrained by the invisible force and he could not move at all. The feeling of powerlessness at the mercy of others appeared again, making him despair.
Then, he saw the Soul-Eating Insect suddenly tremble and rush towards him. The golden light magnified in front of his eyes, like the light of death. But at this moment, a figure blocked it from above.
Du Siyu's gentle and charming peach blossom eyes were filled with determination and resoluteness, without any hesitation. At that moment, the scene that flashed through her mind was that of Gu Xiaoxing standing in front of her and not dodging even when fighting with someone to chop off his head. When she came to her senses, the person was already here. All she could do was to instantly transform into a demon and resist with all her might.
Gu Xiaoxing only felt that his face was hit by a furry white tail, and then he saw the figure flying backwards from above his head, spilling blood and a broken sword.
