Chapter 73: Possession

c_t;The Guanlei Mountains are vast and boundless. The Yan and Duan families in Zuoxing City have sent many people, but if you want to find two people in this endless forest, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. [ ]

Luo Xiu also thought so, so he chose to escape into the Guanlei Mountains.

At sunset, Luo Xiu and Lu Mengyao entered a valley.

The valley was full of flowers and plants, but it was silent. In Luo Xiu's perception, except for the life breath of plants and trees, there was no breath of any other living creatures.

"Let's leave here."

The strangeness of this valley made Luo Xiu alert, and his first reaction was to pull Lu Mengyao away.

But at this moment, a black mist suddenly rose at the entrance of the valley, and a cold breath spread, making Luo Xiu feel cold all over.

Lu Mengyao beside him couldn't help trembling, and her pretty face turned pale.

"This... what's going on?" There was a look of fear in Lu Mengyao's eyes, which came from the fear of unknown things.

Luo Xiu sensed that the Life and Death Pearl trembled slightly, and the cold breath that swept and spread was instantly absorbed by the Life and Death Pearl as soon as it approached, and the bone-piercing coldness on his body disappeared without a trace.

In a short moment, the entire valley was shrouded in black mist, and the entrance and exit could not be seen at all. It was like a huge formation that trapped him and Lu Mengyao here.

The invasion of the cold breath made Lu Mengyao's lips turn blue and her whole body cold. Even if she circulated her true energy, she could not offset this coldness, and it had no effect at all.

Seeing that Lu Mengyao was about to fall to the ground, Luo Xiu hurriedly supported her and immediately felt the cold breath in her body, but when the two came into contact, this cold and strange breath was absorbed by the Life and Death Pearl in Luo Xiu's body.

Lu Mengyao, who was almost fainting, woke up and grabbed Luo Xiu in fear, "Luo Xiu, what the hell is this place?"

Since the sudden change in Xiaoyao Sect, her father was seriously injured and died in the battle for the leader. The experience again and again made her panic and insecure.

Now, the only person she can rely on is Luo Xiu.

Luo Xiu put his arm around Lu Mengyao and let her lean against him so that she would not be invaded by the cold air.

"I think we should have entered the Guiyin Valley by mistake." Luo Xiu said in a deep voice.

On the brief map of Guanlei Mountain Range he got, Guiyin Valley was marked as a red area, and red marked on the map also means dangerous places.

"Guiyin Valley?" Lu Mengyao's face turned ugly.

Guanlei Mountain Range is located between Yunlong County and Douhai County, and it is also the place where the most warriors from the two counties gather for training.

There are two dangerous places in Guanlei Mountain Range, and Guiyin Valley is one of them, which makes countless warriors from the two counties change color when talking about it.

The whole valley was filled with black mist and the cold breath of death.

According to the induction of the Life and Death Pearl, Luo Xiu looked into the depths of the valley.

"Follow me."

Luo Xiu took Lu Mengyao's hand, and the two walked cautiously towards the direction of the Life and Death Pearl.

Since he couldn't find the exit for the time being, Luo Xiu simply wanted to explore the truth of this Ghost Valley. The death breath contained in these black mists was a fatal threat to other warriors, but it would not cause any effect on Luo Xiu who had the Life and Death Pearl.

Seeing that Luo Xiu actually pulled her into the depths of the Ghost Valley, Lu Mengyao couldn't help shuddering, but she also knew that she couldn't find the exit, so she could only follow Luo Xiu closely, her body almost close to him.

"Hehe..."

A sinister and weird laugh suddenly came from the depths of the valley. The laugh seemed to come from all directions. The nearby black mist also rolled violently, and the cold breath of death became more and more intense.

"What is sneaking around?" Luo Xiu shouted angrily.

At this moment, the rolling mist nearby suddenly turned into a huge skull, opening its mouth to release a huge devouring force.

"Ah..."

Lu Mengyao screamed, on the one hand because she was frightened by the huge black skull, and on the other hand because the devouring force was very strong. Once swallowed by the skull, God knows what will happen.

Luo Xiu pulled out the shadow sword and inserted it into the ground, but the powerful devouring force continued to pull him. The shadow sword plowed a gully on the ground and continued to approach the black skull.

If this continued, it would only be a matter of time before he was swallowed by the skull.

The first picture of the origin law subconsciously emerged in Luo Xiu's mind, and the wheel of life and death in the Dantian Qi Sea also spun rapidly at this moment.

"Life and death seal!"

Luo Xiu pinched the seal with his fingers, and the black and white life and death forces surged out, condensing the phantom of the wheel of life and death in front of his chest.

As Luo Xiu pushed his palm forward, the palm-sized phantom of the Wheel of Life and Death flew out and slammed into the huge skull condensed by the black mist.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the huge black skull shattered, and waves of cold and deadly auras continued to surge towards Luo Xiu and enter his body.

All of these auras were absorbed by the Life and Death Pearl, and then gushed out the power of life and death, flowing through the meridians and limbs of the body.

Crack...

There seemed to be some kind of shackles in the body that were broken open. Luo Xiu's aura suddenly rose, and his cultivation level suddenly reached the sixth level of Qi Sea.

"I see."

Luo Xiu's eyes flashed with light. He discovered that the black mist surging in the valley contained the power of death. He could use the Life and Death Pearl to absorb and refine it for his own use and improve his cultivation.

The effect of this kind of improvement in cultivation is even countless times better than that of swallowing the vitality of heaven and earth. Otherwise, his cultivation would not have been able to break through to the sixth level of Qi Sea so quickly.

"The power of life and death? He is clearly just a mere Qihai warrior, but he is actually proficient in the power of life and death?" A cry of surprise came from deep in the valley.

"Pretend to be a ghost!" Luo Xiu sneered at the corner of his mouth, and immediately led Lu Mengyao to continue walking deeper into the valley.

The power of death is terrifying to other warriors, but it is a tonic to him. The existence hidden in this ghost valley is just restrained by him, so Luo Xiu naturally does not have to be afraid of him.

The wheels of life and death were spinning rapidly in the Dantian Qi Sea. Wherever Luo Xiu passed by, the black mist continued to merge into his body, which quickly promoted his cultivation from the early stage of the sixth level of Qi Sea to the middle stage of the sixth level of Qi Sea. And it continues to improve.

A moment later, Luo Xiu saw a cave deep in the valley. The aura of death that filled the entire valley was derived from this cave.

Luo Xiu did not rush into the cave, but sat cross-legged on the ground, running the wheels of life and death with all his strength.

The nine diagrams of the original laws of the wheels of life and death actually contain the secrets of martial arts. Luo Xiu comprehended a hint of the secrets from them and integrated them with the Pure Yang Kung Fu.

In fact, the Chunyang Gong is supposed to cultivate pure Yang Qi, but because of the Life and Death Pearl, Luo Xiu modified the original operation route of Chunyang Gong, and what he cultivated was the life and death Qi.

Therefore, in fact, the exercises Luo Xiu practices are no longer pure Yang exercises.

As soon as the technique was activated, the black mist in the entire valley gathered crazily towards Luo Xiu, and the whole person was enveloped in the black mist.

Lu Mengyao didn't know what was going on. When she found that she was no longer attacked by the cold aura, she knew that Luo Xiu must have thought of some way, so she stood beside Luo Xiu to protect him, carefully watching the movements around her.

In just a short moment, the black mist in the entire valley became thinner and thinner as Luo Xiu absorbed it.

Suddenly, a voice came into Luo Xiu's ears, "Stop, don't smoke anymore."

Luo Xiu snorted coldly and turned a deaf ear to this. Soon, all the black mist in the valley was absorbed by him. Most of it was swallowed by the life and death beads, although only a small part was transformed by the life and death beads and turned into the life and death true energy. It also allowed his cultivation to rise to the seventh level of Qi Sea in just a short moment.

No matter what, Luo Xiu continued to run the wheel of life and death. A death energy that was purer than the black mist escaped from the cave and was absorbed by Luo Xiu in an instant.

"Young man, don't go too far. If you still want to leave from here, I advise you to stop."

The voice coming from the cave carried a hint of threat, "This valley is blocked by my formation. Don't say that you are just a Qi Hai warrior. Even if you are in the Martial King realm, if you don't have the attainments of a sixth-level formation mage, don't even think about it." go out."

"Why should I believe your words that you would be so kind to let us go?" Luo Xiu sneered.

"Hmph, I, Su Jingyun, am a strong martial artist, and I don't even bother to lie to you, a small Qi Hai martial artist." The voice in the cave said coldly.

"Martial Lord?" Luo Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly. In the realm of martial arts practice, after King Wu, there is Lord Wu.

There is no strong man of the Wujun level in the vast land of Yunlong County, and the overlord force like Xiaoyao Sect is just the king of Wu.

The overall strength of Douhai County is stronger than that of Yunlong County, but as far as Luo Xiu knows, the most powerful one seems to be only the seventh level of King Wu.

It is said that strong men at the Wujun level can only be found in the eight states of Tianwu Kingdom and in Tianwu Kingdom.

With a powerful existence of this level, one person can easily destroy big forces like Xiaoyao Sect and Leiwu Sect.

As for the name Su Jingyun, Luo Xiu had never heard of it.

In the cave, Luo Xiu sensed a group of soul breath entrenched. It is said that after martial arts cultivation reaches the realm of refining gods, the warrior's soul will condense into a soul. He did not sense the breath of life, which means that this Su Jingyun should have no physical body. The soul is left.

Luo Xiu has never heard of anyone who can survive with the help of his soul. Even a strong man in the Martial Lord realm will dissipate once his physical body is destroyed. Generally, only with the help of special treasures can a person who has lost his physical body be able to survive. The soul survives.

This should undoubtedly be the case for Su Jingyun hiding in the cave.

Just as Luo Xiu was pondering, the majestic soul breath deep in the cave suddenly surged out.

"You can control the power of life and death in the realm of Qihai. You must have received a great opportunity. I, Su Jingyun, will use your body to be reborn!"

A cold laughter echoed in Luo Xiu's mind, and the majestic power of the soul swarmed into his body.

"Seize the body?"

Luo Xiu's expression changed. He had heard that strong men above the realm of refining gods could seize the body and devour the souls or souls of other warriors before their souls were eliminated, thereby occupying their bodies.
