The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 133
Chapter 133 The Way to Survival (9)
This enormous pillar of white light was vast and mighty. As soon as it appeared, the surroundings seemed to have turned into a world of ice and snow, gathering the power of the world’s darkest and coldest, freezing space and shattering everything.
Zhao Tao’s expression changed drastically. He felt a huge threat. He lowered his head and saw that dense ice crystals had appeared on his body. His body seemed to be frozen stiff, and a chill came from the bottom of his heart.
He discovered that his actions had slowed down, and his thoughts and reactions had also slowed down, becoming stagnant and stiff.
What a terrifying force of Yin coldness!
Under such circumstances, everything was frozen, and there was no way to dodge. He could only choose to forcefully shoulder it and use his scalp to activate his True Essence, forming a thick layer of protection.
At the same time, he slashed out with his sword, striking out a powerful sword qi, wanting to fight back.
The white pillar of light rushed over and silently collided with the Xiantian Sword Qi. It actually froze and solidified it instantly, turning it into ice and easily shattering it into pieces. Then, his momentum did not diminish, and he carried the unparalleled divine might of freezing everything and struck Zhao Tao’s body.
It was as if a thin layer of ice had been shattered, and with a cracking sound, his protective layer was easily shattered.
The white divine light was vast and mighty, as if it had transformed into a large river, drowning Zhao Tao’s figure, and in the blink of an eye, it had been wiped out into ashes.
He died in an instant without the slightest bit of resistance!
“How is this possible?” Everyone was dumbfounded. What the hell was this white divine light? He actually instantly killed Zhao Tao!
They couldn’t help but wipe their eyes, wondering if they were hallucinating.
Li Qing was also very surprised. He raised his Heavenly Saber and was stunned on the spot. Originally, he thought that there would be a bitter battle, but he didn’t expect that the battle would end before it even started.
He turned around and saw Liu Ke’er lying on the ground with a pale face. He couldn’t help but feel his heart tighten. He hurriedly helped her up and discovered that she had only lost her strength. She had exhausted her true energy and was fine.
He breathed a sigh of relief and fed Liu Ke’er a drop of 10,000-year-old spirit milk. He quickly recovered.
“Did you send out this white divine light?” Li Qing asked curiously.
“That’s right.” Liu Ke’er nodded her head, “I don’t know why, but in a hurry, I was able to launch such an attack for no reason.”
“Looks like it’s similar to my Heavenly Saber. The Lunar Divine Sword can also make big moves!” Li Qing smiled and relaxed.
He turned around and looked at the rest of them. Zhao Tao was already dead, and the rest were all Houtian realm martial artists. There was no way they could pose any threat to him.
This battle was basically over!
“Run!” No one knew who shouted, but these people actually scattered and fled everywhere, wanting to escape into the boundless darkness.
Without the slightest bit of courage to fight, they all fled in the blink of an eye. It was truly too cowardly. Obviously, these people also understood that with their strength, they could not be a match for Li Qing and Liu Ke’er.
Of course, Li Qing couldn’t let them off so easily. He quickly caught up with them. The Heavenly Saber slashed out one after another and several people fell to the ground in a few falls.
However, these people were too scattered, scattered in all directions, Li Qing’s avatar was incapable, and in the end, a few of them were still escaped.
These people entered the boundless darkness. Li Qing did not dare to chase after them. Otherwise, it would be very easy to get lost. It would be bad if they were separated from Liu Ke’er.
Even if these people escaped, they probably wouldn’t be able to live long. They believed that they would soon be buried in the hands of the demons.
“It’s over!” Li Qing sighed. He looked at the corpse lying on the ground. The martial artist’s vitality was strong. Some of them were still alive, and their eyes were wide open, as if they were unwilling to die in peace.
“These people are really bad. I shouldn’t have saved them back then, but they caused a lot of trouble!” Liu Ke’er spat, extremely disgusted.
“Originally, he was a normal person, but once he reached this place, he would become abnormal.” Li Qing couldn’t help but feel some sympathy. “It’s just you and me. We can still maintain a balanced mentality. We haven’t completely gone crazy.”
“I feel fine. Other than surviving, I don’t think it’s that hard. Why are their minds so easily twisted and abnormal? It’s really strange.” Liu Ke’er said.
“I don’t understand either. Perhaps we have the nourishment of love.” Li Qing smiled and shook his head, “Let’s go. It’s not suitable to stay here for long.”
After saying that, the two of them wanted to leave.
Suddenly, when Li Qing passed by a corpse, he looked away and noticed something strange.
“Wait!” He immediately stopped and observed the corpse carefully.
“What’s the matter?” Liu Ke’er was puzzled.
Li Qing said, “I can see traces of purple-gold gas rising from this corpse.”
“Purple-gold gas? Isn’t that demonic energy?” Liu Ke’er lowered her head and looked at the corpse for a long time. As expected, she noticed a faint demonic aura rising above the corpse.
“Really! How could this be?” She was very surprised, and a trace of panic arose in her heart.
“I guess these people were unknowingly corroded by the demonic qi!” Li Qing’s expression was solemn. “Let’s wait and see what the result is.”
“Alright!” Liu Ke’er nodded.
The two of them didn’t leave in a hurry and waited on the spot. After about two hours, all the demonic energy on these corpses was released, forming a thin layer of purple-gold clouds in the sky.
The answer was obvious. Demonic Qi could really invade the human body! .
What shocked the two of them was that after releasing the demonic energy, the flesh and blood of these corpses gradually melted, leaving behind only a single white bone!
Liu Ke’er’s face paled from fear and she was shocked by this terrifying scene.
“Isn’t this too scary! How could it be like this?”
Li Qing guessed, “It seems that all of us were unknowingly corroded by the demonic energy. Once we die, this situation will occur.”
“Are you saying that the two of us have also been corroded?”
“Of course! No one is spared. It’s just that we’re still alive, so nothing happened.”
Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but shiver. She felt that her entire body was uncomfortable. She said, “Is there any harm in this demonic energy corroding the human body? Will we also become like demons, losing our rationality and thoughts?”
Hearing this, Li Qing’s heart skipped a beat and he blurted out, “I understand why these people went crazy so quickly. Eighty percent of them are related to this demonic qi!”
“What do you mean……”
“A martial artist’s willpower is very strong. It’s not that easy to go crazy. Under normal circumstances, it’s not a problem to endure for a few months. However, in this short period of time, they have gone crazy one after another. Their minds are twisted and abnormal. I think it’s the demonic energy that makes them so.”
“Then aren’t we in danger?”
“It’s hard to say! As long as we keep our minds clear and do not lose our rationality, the demonic energy should be useless.” Li Qing took a deep breath and pondered for a while before saying, “In order to slow down the erosion of the demonic qi, we should use true qi to protect our bodies in the future.”
“Alright, it’s just that this consumes too much True Qi. We don’t know how long our spirit stones will last.” Liu Ke’er was a little upset. This place was truly too strange, filled with dangers. Perhaps one day, the two of them would die unknowingly.
“One day counts as a day.” Li Qing smiled and said, “The two of us earn an extra day together, don’t we?”
“That’s right.” Liu Ke’er’s expression relaxed.
The two of them left this place, leaving behind only a few dense white bones, seemingly telling of endless desolation.
…
A few days later, they encountered another wave of survivors, surrounded by countless demons. This time, they didn’t go up to rescue these people again, allowing them to die on their own.
After what happened last time, they no longer wanted to get into trouble. It was better for them to be together, simple and straightforward. Although it seemed a little selfish, there was nothing he could do about it.
However, it could also be seen that there were still some survivors in the Eternal Demon Abyss. After all, as long as there were Xiantian experts, it would be easier for them to survive.
In the following period of time, Li Qing and Liu Ke’er discovered that the number of demons seemed to have decreased a lot, and it was not as overwhelming as before. Of course, the individual’s strength was much stronger. Obviously, the demons had absorbed the demonic energy and had all evolved.
“The number of demons in the Eternal Demon Abyss is not infinite. The current signs can show that there are fewer and fewer demons. Perhaps we humans will kill all of them first!” Li Qing said.
“Even if we kill all the demons, we still can’t get out.”
“As long as you’re alive, there’s hope …”
