Volume 5 Sword Qi Nine Sky Seven Hundred and Twenty-Four Illusions (Part 1)
Fortunately, the girl did not lie to herself. These puppets were actually imprisoned by her using the secret magic circle. They were all motionless at this moment, as if they were lifelike sculptures.
Despite this, Liu Ming, who had always been cautious, still observed the surrounding situation at all times along the way, for fear that the girl's methods would fail, causing these puppets to live longer.
Half an hour later, Liu Ming finally arrived outside a certain side hall shown on the map.
The two doors of the side hall seemed to be ajar, with a ray of light shining through the cracks in the doors.
Liu Ming's thoughts changed, and he immediately made a seal with one hand, intending to quietly cast a spell to explore the situation inside. At this moment, a woman's faint voice came to his ears.
"Since the Puppet Emperor of the Southern Wilderness sent you here, why are you still sneaking around? Come in!"
When Liu Ming heard this, his heart suddenly sank and his scalp felt numb.
"Oops, is the restriction invalid?" He couldn't help but think about it.
Before he could make any further moves, suddenly a loud sound broke through the air behind him, mixed with the harsh roar of metal collision.
Liu Ming was startled and hurriedly looked back, only to see a strong wind blowing in the passage behind him and a black sandstorm rolling in crazily.
Liu Ming's face changed drastically, and he immediately couldn't think about it. A black energy rolled out from his hand, opened the door of the side hall, and hid in the side hall with a flash of his body.
The moment it entered, the strong wind behind him suddenly stopped and disappeared without a trace. Even the sound of metal collision disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
"It's not an illusion."
Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat, and when he wanted to retreat, the two doors behind him closed tightly with a "bang".
"Since you've come in, you can answer my question now." In the middle of the side hall, a woman in a green palace dress with ordinary facial features and slightly thick eyebrows was sitting on a wooden chair with her head lowered. When she saw Liu Ming coming in, she immediately He raised his head slightly and said calmly.
When Liu Ming heard this, he did not respond, but quickly looked around.
This side hall is not that big. Except for a dozen puppets of different heights standing around, there is nothing else.
And according to what the girl said before, this woman in palace clothes is naturally the spiritual puppet.
She didn't seem to be in a good situation - under her wooden chair, a dark blue magic circle about ten feet in size was clearly visible. The woman only opened her lips slightly when she spoke, and could not move at all below her neck. She seemed to be trapped by restraints. ,
In this case, it shouldn't be difficult to kill it.
After Liu Ming's thoughts quickly changed, he immediately turned over with one hand, and with a flash of crystal light in his hand, he immediately revealed the head of the spirit-breaking dagger and strode towards the woman.
"I know you are an outsider, and I should be able to guess what Qing Ling said to you. Originally, when you entered this hall, I wanted to move here as well, but I was beaten by this bastard. You're just one step ahead. Otherwise, you should go to her place with my Ice Soul Sword now." Seeing Liu Ming coming, the woman in blue palace clothes sighed and said slowly, without any trace of panic on her face. color.
Liu Ming, however, seemed not to have heard this and continued to walk over step by step with an expressionless face.
"That bitch must have told you that she is the split soul of the Southern Wasteland Puppet Emperor, and I am just a betrayed spiritual puppet. But if I tell you that she is actually the spiritual puppet, and I am the Puppet Emperor's. divided soul,
What choice do you make? "The woman in blue palace clothes suddenly smiled and said again.
When Liu Ming heard this, his pupils shrank and his steps finally slowed down slightly.
"That bastard Qing Ling is just a spiritual puppet and the benefits to you are minimal. If you can help me get rid of her in turn, when I take control of the entire cave treasure, I can accept you as my direct disciple. It will be easy for me to teach you all the puppet secret skills that shocked the entire Southern Wilderness back then, and even help you advance to the level of true elixir and celestial phenomenon." The woman in blue palace clothes continued calmly, although her tone was very calm, but what she said The words are full of temptation that is irresistible.
"Help me advance to the true elixir, celestial phenomenon?" Liu Ming finally stopped and stared at the face of the woman in palace clothes and spoke.
"Yes, as long as I can control this heavenly treasure, it will be just around the corner to restore my former strength and help you greatly increase your realm." The woman in blue palace clothes said with a slight flicker of her eyes.
But Liu Ming stood there and pondered, and after a while he said quietly:
"If you can really make a serious oath, it's not that I can't consider it, but before that, I have one condition.
"What are the conditions? Just tell me." The woman in blue palace clothes heard the words and asked without hesitation.
"My condition is... to take your life!"
Liu Ming, who seemed to be hesitating, suddenly shouted loudly, stepped on the ground with one foot, and shot towards the opposite side like a crossbow. His movements were so fast that in just a flash, the person suddenly appeared on the green side. The abdomen of a woman in palace attire was pierced.
Faced with Liu Ming's outburst, the woman in palace clothes not only showed no surprise, but suddenly laughed softly, and just whispered the word "down" in her mouth.
In an instant, the eyes of the palace owner's woman suddenly shined with white light, and countless tiny white runes emerged from them, and they could be heard spinning wildly.
The moment Liu Ming's eyes met the white light in the woman's eyes, his head suddenly became extremely heavy, and his limbs instantly became sore and weak.
The dagger, which was already barely half a foot away from the woman's abdomen, stopped with a shudder.
"No, it's an illusion!"
Liu Wu couldn't move his eyes away from the white light in the woman's eyes, but he was frightened in his heart. He immediately used his mental strength to resist and tried to wake himself up. He also moved his other hand to touch the Sumeru Ring. He took out the soul-suppressing lock and tried to use the power of the soul-suppressing lock to fight against this illusion.
"Fellow Taoist, you have worked so hard to get here. Don't you think it's too hard? You should have a good rest..." Seeing that Liu Ming didn't fall to the ground immediately, the woman in palace clothes had a flash in her eyes. Surprised, but gentle words that seemed to be extremely caring came out of his mouth.
Liu Mingdai felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier at first, but after hearing this voice that seemed to come from far away, his eyes were filled with the vague figure of a woman in palace clothes, and a feeling of drunkenness gradually came into his heart. , the palm that had been pressed on the Sumeru Ring was unable to activate any magic power to take out the soul-suppressing lock.
Liu Ming was horrified, knowing that if he continued like this, he would really fall into this illusion and be unable to extricate himself. Immediately, his upper and lower teeth suddenly closed hard and bit the tip of his tongue. When he opened his mouth again, "Pfft" With a sound, a cloud of blood mist spurted out.
This blood mist just rolled around, and suddenly turned into several bloody runes, and disappeared into Liu Ming's body in a blink of an eye.
Liu Ming's confused eyes suddenly became clear, and after a sudden loud roar, his limbs trembled slightly.
Seeing this situation, the woman in blue palace clothes finally couldn't hide the surprise on her face, but she immediately snorted and said:
"Ordinary people will lose consciousness in an instant after being hit by my illusion. I didn't expect that your cultivation at the crystallization stage can actually last until now. Huh, it only lasts a little longer. Now, go to sleep!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, a white light suddenly filled her eyes.
With a "swish" sound, a golden rune came out of his mouth and was instantly printed on Liu Ming's forehead.
Suddenly, a thick layer of golden light enveloped Liu Ming, and his body began to tremble slightly.
Liu Ming trembled all over, and vaguely felt something in his mind was shattered. His eyes went dark and he didn't know who was going on.
But just when the last trace of reason drifted away from him, he faintly smelled a scent of sandalwood in his nose. It was very thick and smelled very good, and the surroundings were very quiet, without a sound...
"Husband, don't scare me, wake up, wake up!"
In a somewhat old wooden house, a plainly dressed and ordinary-looking commoner woman was sitting on the bedside with an anxious look on her face, gently rocking a handsome-looking scholar-dressed woman who was lying on the bed. year man.
The man's eyes were tightly closed at this moment, his cheeks were slightly red, and big beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead from time to time, soaking the quilt on the edge of the bed.
At this time, a child of seven or eight years old, carrying a tub of cold water, quickly crossed the threshold and entered the house.
"Mom, I brought the water. Is dad still awake? Do you want to ask Mr. Hu from the next village to check your pulse?" The boy placed the wooden basin on the table, pulled the corner of the woman's clothes and said softly.
"This is not the first time your father has fainted. The last time Hu Langzhong saw him, he couldn't tell what the disease was. It took him three hours to wake up. Alas, besides, our family has no Use your silver to treat Hu Langzhong again." The woman pursed her chapped lips and said with a sigh.
Then, she stood up, moved a few steps, came to the table, picked up the basin, and after some hesitation, picked up the wooden ladle in the basin, scooped up a ladle of water, and poured it on the bed. man
After a "swish" sound, the man suddenly sat up from the bed, opened his eyes, and shook his head.
"Dad, you wake up!"
When the boy saw this, he suddenly showed a look of joy, ran to the bedside, and hugged one of the man's arms.
The man reached out a hand and touched the boy's head, then turned his head to look at the woman and said softly:
"Lian Xi, did I suddenly faint again? How long has it been?"
"Feng'er. You go out first, I have something to say to your father." The woman's eyes were a little red, she glanced at the man, and after saying this to the boy, she also came to the bedside.
"Yes, mother." The child nodded sensibly, then walked out of the house with the wooden basin on the table, and gently closed the door.
"Husband, I know you study hard every day because you want to gain fame, but if you study so hard day and night, I'm afraid your body will collapse before you reach high school." The commoner woman lowered her head and said with a sad look on her face. There were tears in the corners of his eyes.
