Chapter 179: Strange Things in the Theater (27)
"They will absorb spiritual energy! Don't use your broken whip!" Feng Xiao hurriedly shouted to Jing Chen who was not far away from him.
Jing Chen clenched the Golden Spirit Whip tightly and felt that some of his spiritual power had been sucked away. He could not help but secretly exclaimed: "Trouble."
"This female ghost is too powerful. We need to think of a way to delay her and ask the city lord to find the center of the formation. If we can't find the center of the formation, we may not be able to weaken the female ghost's power." Feng Xiao said as he assisted Jing Chen.
Jing Chen looked around and saw that the situation at Mu Hanxing's place was even more critical. Countless ghost claws stretched out from the misty clouds in the sky, as if the Asura's ghost gate had opened, and the air was filled with eerie evil energy. Those ghost claws pounced towards her and there was almost nowhere to hide. No matter how agile she was, it was extremely difficult for her to dodge them. If she continued like this, she would definitely exhaust her physical strength.
At this time, Jingchen swung a whip and instantly shattered the ghost claws that stretched out from behind her!
Mu Hanxing was startled, and when he turned around, he saw Jingchen coming over, and hurriedly said to them, "Help me hold him back!"
"You go find the center of the formation, and leave this here to us." Jingchen flew over and fought against those ghost claws on her behalf.
Mu Hanxing panted and responded, and was about to rush to the stage, but at this moment he heard a startled scream behind him: "Ah——!"
It’s Lin Yifeng’s voice!
She looked back, but could not see the other end of the long street. A huge black shadow was cast all around, making it impossible to see what was happening behind. She frowned and shouted in the direction of the voice: "Gong Yu, protect Cui Ren and Lin Yifeng!"
As soon as Gong Yu heard the order, he quickly used the compass he carried with him to summon a magic array formed by spiritual power. This magic array was full of yang energy and could resist some of the yin energy from the outside world, but it consumed a lot of his spiritual power. He was not good at spiritual power, so he might not be able to hold on for too long.
"City Lord! There are suddenly a lot of guards behind us who suddenly attack us. We can still hold on for a while. Lin Yifeng accidentally injured his leg, but no vital injuries were suffered." Gong Yu shouted from behind.
"You guys must hold on, I'm going to find the center of the formation!" After hearing this, Mu Hanxing flew towards the stage.
Seeing that on the stage, Su Miaoying was still scratching the curtain with her nails, she fell into a state of madness. Her eyes were dull, and the sound of her nails scratching the curtain was clear and penetrating in the darkness, which was really disturbing.
The female ghost in the sky shouted angrily: "You!!! Stop!!!"
Su Miaoying originally just thought that if she destroyed the curtain on which the play within the play was being performed, everything would be over, but Mu Hanxing discovered that this action caused the female ghost to react obviously abnormally.
So, she quickly activated the spell to detect the eye of the formation. As soon as she chanted the spell, a golden halo suddenly appeared all around, and the halo was actually flashing on the curtain. As she expected, the eye of the formation was on the curtain!
She raised her sword and ascended to the sky. She leaped up and fiercely stabbed the curtain in front of her with her sword. At this moment, all the ghost claws merged into one, and a huge black hand swung over at an extremely fast speed! She was not mentally prepared and took the slap head-on!
With a "bang", she was slammed to the ground by a black hand from mid-air!
"City Lord!" Someone behind her called her worriedly.
She lay on the ground, feeling a sharp pain in her lungs and spurting out a mouthful of blood. This claw almost took her life. What a powerful ghost!
During this gap, the ghost girl's claws slapped Su Miaoying who was still scratching the curtain. But just as the claws were about to touch her, they were blocked by a strong light from her body. The light seemed to burn the claws, and the ghost girl screamed in pain: "Ah! Damn it..."
There seemed to be something on Su Miaoying's body protecting her.
At this moment she also discovered it and hurriedly took out an amulet from her clothes. This was something her parents asked for from outside when she was a child. It was specifically used to ward off disasters and evil spirits. Her parents had always ordered her not to take it off no matter what happened. She had never taken it seriously, always thinking that this thing was just a piece of paper made by those scammers to cheat money. She was stunned, looking down at the amulet on her neck in silence.
"Scapegoat..." After being injured, the female ghost became even more angry. The ghost claws in the sky increased their speed. The female ghost opened a blood-red eye in the air, and then stared at Mu Hanxing closely, and her attack became even more fierce!
Mu Hanxing dodged the Sky Ghost Claw with a roll. Just when she was in a state of panic, she heard Chuntao's shouting from behind. She panicked and hurriedly ordered Jingchen behind her: "Jingchen! I'm afraid Guang Gongyu can't hold on alone. Go back and help!"
Before she could finish her words, Jing Chen ran back at full speed. Before leaving, he solemnly said to Feng Xiao, "Protect her well, otherwise, you will be held responsible!"
Feng Xiao had no time to pay attention to him. He was alone against the fiercely attacking guards with thousands of troops. His spiritual fire was not inexhaustible. Facing the swarms of guards, his spiritual power was soon almost exhausted. He was breathing slightly, always observing the scene on the stage. At this moment, Mu Hanxing dodged countless black claws, nimbly shuttled among the shadows, and slashed at the huge curtain with a sword!
The curtain... could it be the center of the formation?!
But at this moment, the three of them were stunned at the same time. The Cangxue Sword could not cut through it! To be precise, there was only a crack on the curtain, but that crack quickly healed itself and formed a new curtain. The densely packed shadow puppet guards inside continued to fall. After falling, they looked for Feng Xiao and Mu Hanxing and waved their guns. The density was like a beehive!
Feng Xiao's eyes turned fierce, and he soared into the sky, transforming into a flaming phoenix in the air. A huge spiritual fire instantly burned on his body. He flew low with a large piece of red flame palace, setting a group of new leather guards on fire. The Nine-Sky Mysterious Bird screamed, and suddenly a sea of fire appeared in front of him, lighting up the surroundings again, and also lighting up the entire long street!
Mu Hanxing dodged the flying ghost claws while slashing the curtain with his sword dozens of times. The sword shadows were as fast as light, so fast that people could not see clearly, but the curtain healed too quickly! If the eye of the formation was broken, the power of the female ghost would be weakened, but the eye of the formation was in the curtain. Isn't this a dead loop! ?
She was extremely anxious and felt a burning sensation on her back. The temperature suddenly rose. As she was trying to fall from the air, she looked back and, with the help of Feng Xiao's flame light, she saw the back of the long street. She saw Gong Yu casting a formation and sheltering everyone inside.
There was a crack in the formation, and Chuntao must have been accidentally taken advantage of by the guard, who found a weak spot in the formation and shot him, but fortunately he dodged it and only scratched his arm. Although blood was gushing, he was still able to hold on as an immortal.
But they probably won't be able to hold out for much longer!
Time is running out!
