Chapter 89, Loyal Ministers and Fierce Generals
The real purpose of the black shadows seemed to be to lure Tang Yao into extinguishing the candle flame, and then activate a powerful illusion circle in this shrine, apparently Tang Yao had awakened a sleeping being after doing so.
Tang Yao turned his head, after the fog dissipated, the shrine had completely changed, the original lawn, the sculptures and the stone benches and tables had disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and dark land, and on the ground were the tombstones that stood one after another, but more strange things followed, the soil under the tombstones cracked, and one by one the broken hands stretched out from under the soil, and then the samurai who seemed to have been buried here and died broke out of the ground, Their already mutilated bodies still retain their human appearance, their cyan faces don't look like living people, their rotting skin, their bloodstained faces, and their resentful faces are full of extreme hatred.
There are dozens of such samurai, and among them there is a special samurai, who has broken through one of the largest and most imposing tombstones in this place, still wearing neat armor and holding two cold and shining katana swords in his hands.
After it appeared, it raised its twin swords and rushed straight towards Tang Yao, and with it taking the lead, the other warrior souls followed one after another, pounced on Tang Yao and the two great ancient spirits.
Tang Yao was about to make a move, but he heard Shen Tuya next to him whisper: "Master, this warrior revenant soul is a bit interesting, it seems to be the leader of many ancient spirits wandering here, these resentful revenant souls are all low-level ancient spirits, and the strength of this samurai leader's revenant soul is not bad, they are trapped here as if they are bound to this land, and they also draw energy from this land, I am very interested in this guy and want to fight with it." ”
"Okay, then you can have fun, Yan Lu, you come to clean up the souls of these other warriors." After Tang Yao finished speaking, he simply sat down on the stone behind him, and put his hands in his pants pockets, looking determined.
Yan Lu showed his signature sinister smile, stepped into the air, opened the book in his hand, its voice turned into the clearest bell in the night, every word, every sentence, seemed to have magic power to turn incredible things into reality.
"The god of the night wanderer, the lord of lonely souls, and dozens of revenant soul warriors, how can they stop my countless wandering souls."
The pages on the booklet began to flip wildly, and a mist rose all around, not only the shrine, but all the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the entire area were summoned by Yan Lu at this moment, and slowly came, Yan Lu smiled evil and said: "Now, see how long you samurai souls can last." ”
Countless lonely souls attacked under Yan Lu's control, and they frantically rushed towards the samurai souls, and the battle between the undead souls was about to break out.
On the other side, Shen Tuya walked towards the other party's samurai leader with a war knife, after putting down the war knife, Shen Tuya made a provocative gesture to the samurai leader, the opponent's double knife extended backwards, and suddenly exerted force, and his body rushed towards Shen Tuya like a wild boar, the movement was extremely fast and the body was dexterous, and the moment he killed in front of Shen Tuya, he immediately split out the double knife, and the blade slashed on Shen Tuya's war knife, Shen Tuya smiled and said: "It's not bad, as the leader of the ancient spirits, your strength is strong enough." ”
The power of the crow exploded at this moment, Shen Tuya held the hilt of the knife with both hands and raised it fiercely, and the huge force repelled the samurai leader, Shen Tuya took advantage of the victory to chase and kill in front of the samurai leader, and then slashed down, the samurai leader raised his two swords to meet each other, and the blades of the three knives collided fiercely.
Shen Tu Ya took a step forward and continued to increase his strength, the flames on the blade had already scorched the armor of the samurai leader, and the armor began to be scorched and melted, slowly revealing the true face of the samurai leader under the armor.
It was an old but resolute face, although the face was blue, it could still be seen that this samurai leader was once a strong man on the battlefield, and when he died, he was afraid that he had passed the peak of his strength.
The moment Shen Tuya saw the true face of the samurai leader, he suddenly withdrew his sword, and then took a few steps back, and the samurai leader quickly got up from the ground, took off the helmet that had been melted on his head, revealing short silver hair, an old and bloodstained cyan face, and an eye that had been pierced by arrows.
Shen Tuya's sudden withdrawal made Tang Yao a little surprised, and asked, "Why did you suddenly stop it?" ”
"I thought he was the leader of the ancient spirits who was buried here and bound here, but now I think wrong, he is guarding this place, I think this place should be very important to him, I can't communicate with him because I don't understand his language, but I can see that this place should be very important for him, a veteran, to protect him."
At this time, the samurai leader stuck his double swords on the ground, and then slowly turned around and knelt down on a stone tablet in the corner, in contrast, the stone tablet in the corner of the wall was the most inconspicuous, but now it seems to be the highest status stone tablet here, he knelt down and stood up again, pulled out the double knife inserted in the ground and then actually swallowed the double knife into his mouth, an incredible scene happened in front of Tang Yao's eyes, after swallowing his double knife, the body of the samurai leader's dead soul suddenly changed greatly, and the whole body quickly expanded and then became extremely burly, The twin blades turned into two demon horns.
Tang Yao said loudly: "How did this guy become like this? ”
Shen Tuya turned around and said, "Master, I'm afraid this guy has transformed downward, that is, he has become a resentful spirit. ”
It was not the first time Tang Yao had dealt with the Resentful Spirit, in fact, there was also an Ancient Spirit that was more troublesome than the Resentful Spirit in his obsidian stone, but the Resentful Spirit was indeed very strong, and although the negative impact of this downward transformation was very strong, it would also bring a huge increase in the strength of the Ancient Spirit.
"Isn't there a master for the spirit of resentment, what about this guy's master?" Tang Yao asked strangely, he felt that those guys who hid their true bodies in the dark should not be the masters of this samurai leader, but his intuition told him that the bones lying in this tombstone where the samurai leader knelt were his masters.
But the master is dead, why is he still able to transform into a resentful spirit?
"Maybe it's because he has no choice...... Shen Tuya said after a pause, "If I'm not mistaken, he was created into an ancient spirit after he died, and he guarded this place with his men who died in battle, and his former master was also buried here, in order not to be found out the real bones of the master, so he became the remains under the largest tombstone, covering for the inconspicuous tombstone, after he died, he may have been guarding the master like me, but he is different from me, I was largely trapped in the tomb of the Han Emperor, and he was willing to stay here, and used illusion as a cover, the appearance of this shrine during the day may be the appearance of illusion, and now we see this tombstone is the real appearance of this place, he should have regarded us as an enemy who came to disturb his master's sleep, and found that he could not fight us in an ordinary state, and under the urging and intensification of a huge sense of mission and absolute loyalty to his master, he degenerated himself into a resentful spirit, But this depravity has a price, its depravity cannot last long, and the moment when the aura is exhausted after this depravity is the moment when it completely dissipates. ”
To put it simply, it was this samurai leader who was here to protect his dead master, Tang Yao was lured and extinguished the candle flame, breaking the barrier on the surface of this place, and the warrior spirits woke up and found that they couldn't beat Tang Yao, so they didn't hesitate to sacrifice themselves in a hurry, and temporarily degenerated into a resentful spirit to fight, and it would disappear completely after the battle.
Shen Tuya raised his sword and bowed deeply to the samurai leader, and then whispered: "I don't know you to protect the peace of my master with my own depravity, but you are worthy of respect, you are both an old Jiang and a loyal minister, you can sing and be respectable, I can only do my best to show my respect for you." ”
As he spoke, the crow's illusion condensed, and Shen Tuya's dark power exploded in full force, and at this moment, he actually looked a little stronger than the samurai leader who had degenerated into a resentful spirit.
