Chapter Thirty-Nine

The night passed quickly, and the sun soon appeared from the sky again.

The evil spirits that came out to hunt had returned to their respective caves or tree holes long before the sun came out, and none of the ghosts dared to act openly under the sun.

The surviving candidate swordsmen were scattered all over the mountain, and barely survived the frightening first night. After seeing the familiar sun rise, they relaxed completely. It seemed that their energy had been exhausted after one night. All squeezed out.

Most of them came to participate in the final selection after two or three years of training with the trainers. Not many people had the experience of fighting ghosts. Surrounded by the surrounding environment, everyone has to put up all their energy to deal with it all night long, otherwise they will die if they are not careful.

In contrast, my wife Shanyi is the most relaxed of these people.

That night, a total of three evil spirits attacked them.

Although he was startled every time, every time the evil spirits appeared, they were instantly killed by Liu Xia with her absolute strength.

The strength of these ghosts is too weak, so weak that they can't even create a little accident.

And during this night, Liu Xia's understanding of [Thunder's Breath] and [Thunderbolt's Flash] became more and more profound. After killing the evil spirits that sprang out for the third time, he no longer wanted to ask my wife Shanyi any questions. up.

The principle of the breathing method itself is not difficult, the difficult thing is to practice more, so that the breathing method can be used more proficiently, and the same is true for sword skills.

"You go into this tree hole first, take a rest during the day, and go out to hunt evil spirits at night."

Liuxia took Shanyi back to the tree hole where the first evil ghost ran out, and said indifferently to Shanyi: "I have something to do, I will take the sun wheel knife first, after the work is done, I will Will come back and rest together."

"If you are afraid, you can sprinkle wisteria petals at the entrance of the cave."

Having not slept all night really made Shanyi very tired. Although Liu Xia had killed all the evil spirits that sprang out, he didn't exert any strength, and he didn't feel any physical fatigue at all, but he was trembling all night and couldn't bear it mentally.

"I see."

Shanyi nodded obediently, and climbed into the tree hole.

He also didn't ask Liu Xia what he planned to do. After two days of getting along, he basically confirmed that Liu Xia was the kind of lone ranger who would solve everything by himself, and would basically not try to rely on others. .

Although you can act together with him, don't try to ask his purpose, and don't think about interfering in his affairs.

Anyway, when the sun is out, no ghost dares to go out, safety is guaranteed, and at worst, wisteria flowers are sprinkled at the entrance of the cave, and it makes no difference whether Liu Xia is by his side or not.

After Shanyi went into the tree hole to sleep, Liu Xia turned and left.

With a little force on his feet, he jumped up from the ground, jumped onto the branch of the towering giant tree with ease, and then quickly moved away from the branch far beyond the agility of ordinary people.

"Damn! This afternoon, I will die sooner or later!"

In the forest, a young man in a gray coat was walking quickly through the forest, clenching his teeth tightly, covering the bloody wound on his left arm with his right hand, and tears even overflowed from his eyes.

Last night, although he had been carefully avoiding the evil spirits, unfortunately, he was still spotted and targeted by a ghost. In a panic, he managed to kill the evil spirits at the cost of an arm injury.

Now he must hurry to find a place to hide and heal his wounds before the sun goes down.

Otherwise, he would definitely not survive tonight.

"Ugh—"

Suddenly, before he recovered, a figure fell from the sky in front of him and landed in front of him.

"Human...?! What are you trying to do in front of me at this time!"

The gray-coated boy still hadn't recovered from the tense nerves last night, he was still in shock, and shouted tremblingly at Liu Xia who fell in front of him.

Liu Xia stood up and looked at the other party without the slightest fluctuation in her gaze.

"Hand over the sun wheel knife in your hand."

A completely unbearable request came out of his mouth.

"Are you kidding me!"

The boy in the gray coat suddenly became emotional, and his attitude suddenly became extremely irritable, "If I hand over my sun wheel knife to you, I will definitely die tonight!"

In this mountain forest where ogre ghosts are hiding everywhere, the sun wheel knife in his hand is the only thing that can give him a sense of peace of mind and make him feel hopeful to get through this difficult time. The only thing to rely on.

At this moment, anyone who comes, don't want him to hand over his sun wheel knife.

"Wouldn't that be nice?"

There was no wavering or pity on Liu Xia's face, and a ruthless arc emerged from her tightly pursed lips, "At least you can live until night."

"If you don't hand it in, you have to die by my hands now."

Liu Xia raised the Sun Wheel Saber hanging from her waist, put her right hand on the handle of the saber, leaned forward, and tilted her weight to her feet, as if she was ready to draw the saber at any time.

"You bastard... you actually want to fight among yourself!"

The gray-coated boy gritted his teeth fiercely, with a thick expression of disbelief on his face, and then a look of hostility appeared in his eyes. After putting down his bloody left arm, he pulled out the sun wheel knife at his waist.

"If you dare to do it, try it!"

When his life was not guaranteed, he also completely lost the patience to reason with the other party, and he looked very irritable.

"Green sun blade, user of Breath of Wind? Then try it, how many sword skills have you mastered?"

Liu Xia gently pushed the saber with the thumb of her left hand, and the next moment, she pulled out the sun saber with her right hand, drew a sharp trajectory in mid-air, and swung towards the opponent's sun saber.

"Clang!"

In this mountain forest, there was a high-pitched sound like metal impacting.

"Damn it, what the hell is this guy thinking?"

Liu Xia's attack with the saber was so fierce that the gray-coated boy could only be exhausted for a while, but what he couldn't understand was that each of the opponent's sabers was just a greeting to his sun wheel saber, and there was no time between swiping the saber. It seems that he held back, and did not defeat him in the first place, and snatched his Sun Wheel Knife.

"Forget it! Breath of the Wind · Three Types, Seiran Kazeki!"

Three consecutive wind-blade-like thin sword auras were aroused with the boy in the gray coat swinging the knife, and radiated around him centered on himself. It has both attack and defense functions.

Liu Xia's eyes narrowed slightly, and while seeing all the movements of the gray-coated boy, she also avoided it as if she was invincible.

"Great opportunity! The fifth type, cold autumn mountain wind!"

The gray coat boy's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had seized the opportunity. He quickly raised the knife in his hand and swung it down, causing a weak wind blade to swirl and emerge around his body.

Liu Xia raised her saber to block this move, and continued to swing her saber at the opponent.

At the same time, his eyes were fixed on the other party, and he recorded all the other's movements one by one.
