Chapter 196 Demon Sword Rainy Night

As soon as Xu and Yang walked to the edge of the woods, they found a man sitting cross-legged with his back to the woods outside the woods. The exposed handle of a long knife lying flat on his legs could be vaguely seen.

And gray mist emitted from the top of this person's head from time to time.

Xu Yang identified it carefully and whispered: "The person in front is Guigu Changyang of the Guigu family. He once showed amazing sword skills in the ring competition. It looks like he is healing his wounds." Xu Yang said in a low voice.

"Should we go over and take a look?" Hibiscus asked.

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with someone who can hurt Guigu Changyang. I'll first check whether the surrounding situation is safe."

After Xu Yang finished speaking, he stretched out his arms and turned his palms.

Then a ball of red fireworks swirled out of his palm. In the blink of an eye, the firework turned into a red bird with a golden crown and long tail, which was A'Zhu's true form.

"Miss Hibiscus, you are so beautiful. Ever since my little fairy got to know you, she has forgotten about me and only thinks of me when it is useful." A'Zhu shook his long feathers and looked up and down at Hibiscus and said.

"Beautiful A'Zhu, I'm sorry to trouble you this time." Mu Jin said obediently.

"Wrap it on this fairy bird."

A'Zhu spread his wings, leaving only a shadow of flames in place, and reached high in the sky.

"A vulture is watching over here. It doesn't look like an ordinary spiritual bird. It must have been transformed by someone using a spell." A'Zhu said.

Almost at the same time, the vulture above also saw A'Zhu.

Two evasive figures emerged from behind a boulder in the distance of the forest. One was wearing a feather cloak, the other was wrapped in a fur coat. It is Chen Ping and Xiaoquan who are hiding here.

"The people below actually released a red sparrow. Do you want to fight with me? I started walking birds when I was three years old. I can train birds at the age of five. I am already the king of birds at the age of thirteen. Kill this bird for me. Red sparrow." Chen Ping looked up at A'Zhu in the sky and said angrily.

I saw the vulture high in the sky with a fierce look in its eyes, and circles of black spiritual patterns emanating from its body. The huge wings stirred up the whistling of the wind, whipping up a black whirlwind, and the sharp claws like golden hooks ripped towards A'Zhu below.

High in the air.

A'Zhu, who was downwind, had already noticed the movement of the vulture above his head.

"Bald Bird, let me show you how powerful this fairy bird is."

A'Zhu spread his wings and turned into a beam of fire, rising up to meet the attack.

In just a moment, the two collided.

There was a "boom".

A large group of fireworks exploded high in the sky, scattering and making the sky red.

The huge vulture disappeared, only a long feather that was burnt into a charcoal stick fell straight down, dragging a wisp of black smoke and losing its soul.

Behind the rocks.

"Boss, your bird is on fire."

"It doesn't matter, there are many other birds like this." As he spoke, Chen Ping glanced at the corner of his mouth, flipped his wrist, and seven or eight long brown feathers appeared in his palm as before.

Chen Ping weighed the long feather in his palm, snorted coldly, and took it back.

"It's not that easy to trick me into showing up. There are many of them now, so let's not go out rashly." After saying that, the feather cloak behind him fluttered, and in a ball of flying feathers, the two figures disappeared from the spot.

A'Zhu circled in the sky and then sent a message: "I killed the vulture just now. The person who released him should have gone far away."

The moment the flames exploded in the sky.

Gui Gu Changyang, who was sitting cross-legged below, had a long knife lying flat on his legs shaking and making a squeaking sound. It seemed that the demon knife had caught the breath of fighting and killing and was excited.

Guigu Changyang opened his eyes, hung the long knife on his waist, and said loudly: "You two in the woods, please come out."

"Excuse me, Mulingyuan Xu Yang, this is my friend Bai Mujin."

"I'm in Guigu Changyang."

Guigu Changyang looked at it carefully and continued: "I have heard of you. You are the only monk in the Void Realm in this evil ghost trial, and you are the only mortal. It is really not easy to come here."

"It looks like you were injured? Who hurt you?"

"I accidentally injured myself."

"It's very troublesome for you to be injured here alone. Do you need help?"

"Thank you for your concern. It's okay now."

"Big man, please don't be so harsh. I can see that your breathing is unstable. I'm afraid you're seriously injured. And there were other people peeking in here just now." Bai Mujin said at the side.

"If my brother needs someone to protect him and heal his injuries, we don't mind helping." Xu Yang added.

"Every disciple who is tested in the Evil Ghost Path is a competitor. Aren't you two afraid that if you help me now, I will become your enemy in the future?"

"If you trust the two of us, the three of us can form a team together, so we won't be opponents." Xu Yang said.

"I'm used to being alone. If we want to form a team, you'd better go find someone else. Please don't take offense."

"You are quite straightforward, and I don't blame you. It's hard for disciples in the trial to trust each other. But it looks like you were seriously injured. I have a God-Jointing Pill here. Take it and take it. I hope Next time we meet, we can be friends." With that, Xu Yang threw out a small blue porcelain bottle.

It was not that Xu Yang was being generous or trying to curry favor by giving such a valuable elixir when they first met.

It's just that Guigu Changyang is a direct disciple of the Guigu family. And Xu Yang's master Gui Gu Yeyan is the founding ancestor of the Gui Gu family. This Guigu Changyang was originally the direct grandson of Guigu Yeyan for unknown generations.

Therefore, when Xu Yang saw the people of Guigu family, he always felt a sense of closeness in his heart.

Moreover, Xu Yang believed that although the disciples participating in the trial here were in a competitive relationship, they were all disciples of Tiangui Sect and should compete openly. Taking advantage of others' misfortunes should not be done by fellow disciples.

Guigu Changyang reached out to take the porcelain bottle and opened it.

A purple-gold elixir with three silver lines on the surface jumped in the small bottle, full of spirituality.

"Top-grade Jieshen Pill?" Guigu Changyang said in surprise.

Top-grade Jieshen Pill, such an extremely precious pill, is simply out of market. Even if Guigu Changyang is an elite disciple of the Guigu family, he cannot easily find one. This pill is one of the best auxiliary elixirs for breaking through to the True Pill Realm. It is also a top-grade medicine for healing, but few people do this.

"Thank you."

"Goodbye."

"See you later."

Looking at the two men's backs as they left, Guigu Changyang whispered, "Xu Yang, I owe you a favor."

After that, he took the Jie Shen Dan in the bottle, sat cross-legged, and still placed the long sword on his waist neatly on his thighs, and began to heal his injuries with the help of the medicine.

After an incense stick of time, Guigu Changyang stood up. He tried to activate his true essence, and his body was already smooth, and his injuries were mostly recovered.

"See you next time, maybe we can really become friends and team up together."

Guigu Changyang was still grateful to Xu Yang for giving him the medicine.

He held his long sword with one hand and gently stroked the scabbard with the other hand. His eyes were full of intimacy when he looked at the long sword. It was as if the long sword was his loyal dog, a good horse, and a long-lost friend.

"Rainy night, my friend, our trial is really about to begin."

The long sword hummed, and the sword intent in it seemed to be unable to hold back. The numerous cat-eye gems inlaid on the surface of the scabbard reflect a strange light.

…

The knife in his hand is called "Rainy Night". It is a famous demon knife and a terrifying demon knife.

The demon knife "Rainy Night" is not made by a master of refining like other swords, but is made by the gray-scaled dragon known as the rain demon in legend. The scabbard containing this knife is also a space treasure, which contains a demon pool full of demonic energy.

This knife is a demon weapon handed down by the Guigu family. When it is used, the demonic energy soars to the sky, with amazing power and unmatched.

The longer "Rainy Night" stays in the scabbard, the stronger the demonic power accumulated on the blade, and the more fierce and domineering the knife is. But every time the knife is used, the corresponding demonic power will erode the user. The three predecessors of the Guigu family who used this knife before were backfired by the demonic power on the knife, and eventually turned into monsters with cat faces and fish bodies and died madly.

Therefore, this knife was considered an ominous object and has been sealed by the Guigu family with secret methods, and it has been dormant.

More than 20 years ago.

A couple in the Guigu family welcomed the birth of their child.

For three consecutive days before the child was born, it seemed that the Tianchi in the sky was pierced by someone, and heavy rains raged, the river overflowed the embankment, the mountain landslided, and the sky was dark.

With the cry of a child in the house, the violent rain outside the house suddenly stopped, and the sun was in the sky.

So, the parents named the child Guigu Changyang.

But Guigu Changyang was different from other children when he was born, with gray skin all over his body.

"Why is this child gray?" The child's father was a little surprised.

"He is just different." The mother held the sleeping little Changyang in her arms, her eyes full of love.

Little Changyang grew up healthily under the care of his parents, and he was the apple of his parents' eyes.

However, when Xiao Changyang was five years old, his body showed abnormalities. Whenever it rains, some gray, mud-like sticky substance will flow out of his pores.

Once, Xiao Changyang was playing with a few friends. Suddenly, it rained heavily and he couldn't avoid it.

"Stay away from me, you dirty kid covered in mud."

"Hit him, hit this monster that turned into a loach."

"This wild child was picked up by his father from the mud."

"Hit him with stones."

Since then, his friends no longer play with him. Every time they see him, they will hit him with stones, insult him, and bully him.

...

"Mother, was I picked up?"

"No, my child, you are just different."

"Daddy, am I a loach?"

"Silly child, you are Daddy's baby."

...

When Xiao Changyang was seven years old, during a family sacrificial activity.

The demon sword "Rainy Night" was hung on the altar, and the family elders were casting a spell to strengthen the seal on it.

Unexpectedly, something unusual happened during the process. The seal was broken, and the demon sword "Rainy Night" released its demonic power. The demonic power took shape, and a scaly dragon shadow hovered over the demon sword.

In an instant, the altar was overturned, the wind blew violently, the rain suddenly fell, and the house collapsed.

The children's crying, shouting, thunder and lightning, and the roar of the scaly dragon were in chaos.

The sudden and violent demonic power caught people off guard. Several elders present wanted to step forward to cast a spell to stop it, but they were shocked by the demonic power and vomited blood, and were seriously injured and could not move forward.

"Go find someone to help."

"Take all the children here away immediately."

At this moment, the claws of the raging scaly dragon grabbed the position where Xiao Changyang was.

Xiao Changyang's father desperately blocked in front of Xiao Changyang, and with a bang, he fainted under the bombardment of the scaly dragon.

"Daddy, wake up." He squatted down and shouted.

Looking at his father who had fallen to the ground, his friends who had fallen to the ground, and his relatives who had fled in all directions, Xiao Changyang's eyes showed a trace of determination.

The only way to save them was to stop the violent Jiao Ying in front of him.

With courage from nowhere, his figure rushed straight towards the scaly Jiao and grabbed the handle of the knife exposed outside the scabbard.

With a seemingly short body and short arms, he pulled the magic knife "Rainy Night" out of the scabbard.

The raging Jiao Ying seemed to have seen its master, and with a long cry of a Jiaolong, it dived back onto the blade.

With a sound of "cangcang".

The precious sword was sheathed, the wind stopped, the rain stopped, and Changyang was in the sky.

At this moment.

He was no longer the monster that his friends hated;

He was no longer the child who was lost in the rain;

He was no longer an alien in people's eyes.

At this moment.

He was a hero who saved his friends;

He was a brave boy in the sun;

He was a genius in people's eyes.

He was different.

From then on, the magic sword "Rainy Night" was hung on Guigu Changyang's waist, and the two were inseparable.

And Guigu Changyang's strange disease, which caused "gray mud" to overflow from his pores on rainy days, was cured without treatment, and his power and physical strength increased greatly, becoming the legend of the magic sword.
