Chapter 468: Danger in the Darkness
After a brief understanding, Li Yi finally figured out the way of life in this building. Although it was a bit outrageous, it involved the existence of unknown power, so everything became reasonable.
He bought the special map from the shop and headed to the twenty-fifth floor of the building.
A soul-dead monster was marked here.
And it was in this room.
Li Yi quickly found the corresponding position.
Behind a door full of knife marks came bursts of strange crying and laughing sounds, like ghosts, which made people feel creepy. For the residents here, the threat of the soul-dead monster was far greater than the previous golden mouse, because the soul-dead monster could not be dealt with without special weapons and means.
Being able to lock it in the room was already at a great price. Otherwise, a soul-dead monster wandering in the building would make many people afraid to even go out the door.
Li Yi looked through the crack of the damaged door and locked the position of the soul-dead monster with his silver eyes.
"It's really not easy for ordinary people to face this thing." Li Yi thought secretly.
In %Read! 【x】
Li Yi said: "This ghost place is full of evil objects, and there are so many buildings, how do I know which one you are in? You have to say the correct location clearly, otherwise I will find it slowly, and it will take at least a few months."
At this moment, a hideous opening was torn in the dark sky, and at that opening,
It was of no use to an evolver of Li Yi's strength, but it could threaten people below the Soul Realm.
But on average, Li Yi still harvested several hundred gold coins, which was obviously enough to pay for the train ticket.
"So complicated?" Li Yi said.
However, this Death Soul Monster, according to Bai You, generally wouldn't enter the building. This was a fish that had slipped through the net; it should be that a defense at some part of the building had a loophole, causing the Death Soul Monster to drill in.
Deep in the darkness, Xuan Yuezi's magic power true dragon was rolling, fighting with unknown things. The dark sky was like a violent sea, setting off huge waves. At the same time, a large amount of blood and flesh were constantly falling. After these blood droplets fell to the ground, they immediately turned into various evil things.
Enveloped by this energy field, those evil things transformed from blood became weak at this moment, and the more serious ones fell to the ground and died on the spot.
The number of gold coins in each money bag was different.
"There are powerful living beings hiding in the darkness. I won the fight against the opponent, but immediately after, a more powerful force appeared, instantly crushing my magic power true dragon. Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent hadn't reacted, we hid and avoided this great disaster." Xuan Yuezi said.
To find the train shuttling through the city, this was the fastest method.
And after Li Yi walked out of the building, he used Daoist methods without hesitation.
After struggling for only a little while, the Death Soul Monster's body quickly disappeared.
A crimson auspicious cloud rose, lifting him and Xuan Yuezi into the air.
Liu Ming hurriedly chased after him and said: "Can you stay in this building? This building hasn't had any new adventurers for a long time. If you are willing to stay, this building will definitely be able to restore its former vitality."
"Didn't I tell you the exact location? Didn't I already say it on the phone... It seems there is a force affecting my phone, preventing my important information from getting through." Over there, Yang Wei was very surprised, and then said: "Now I'll say it again. After you enter the world of the building, find that train shuttling through the city. After paying for the ticket and getting on, get off at the station where you hear a dog barking."
The most were one or two hundred, and the least were only a pitiful few.
Under the scorching of the Heart Fire Qi, those Death Soul Monsters perished one after another, without any power to resist. And after they died, the Death Soul Sickles and money bags in their hands fell one after another. However, not all Death Soul Monsters had money bags. After Li Yi killed more than a hundred Death Soul Monsters, he only got more than sixty money bags.
Liu Ming said: "It's very dangerous outside. Without the protection of the building, you two will die outside."
He reached out and pointed, and a streak of Gang Qi mixed with a wisp of Heart Fire Qi splashed out, like an arrow, instantly piercing through the gate and hitting the Death Soul Monster's head accurately and without error.
But at this moment.
Li Yi ignored it, because with the speed of the Death Soul Monster, it couldn't catch up to him.
"I still have very important things to do and cannot stay here." Li Yi shook his head and refused: "However, as a reward, I can give you this weapon. I hope you can become an adventurer and lead the people in this building to survive."
"Wipe them out in one go." The auspicious cloud under Li Yi's feet stopped. He then operated his Daoist methods, opened his mouth, and spat. Under the Great Wind-Calling Method, the sky-filling fire covered them, bringing a different kind of light to this dark world.
Xuan Yuezi was suddenly furious. She could ignore some small dangers, taking them as training for Li Yi, but the opponent targeting Li Yi like this had touched her taboo. In order to protect Li Yi, she performed Daoist methods without hesitation.
"Wait, you can't leave here." But just at this moment, the guard named Liu Ming blocked him.
But from that floating body, two things were left behind: a tattered money bag and a cold, gleaming wooden-handled sickle.
"By the way, the train ticket is one hundred gold coins each. If you don't have money, just kill a few monsters and explode some gold coins first."
On the phone, Yang Wei complained fiercely, disliking Li Yi for wasting time.
However, doing this was indeed a bit risky.
At the same time.
Her figure escaped extremely fast, and the art of riding clouds and mist was performed together.
The tattered money bag was filled with gold coins, and the quantity was not small, about one hundred, which was far worse than the gold coins exploded by the Golden Mouse, but the Death Soul Monster had left behind a weapon.
After putting the money bag and the Death Soul Sickle into the Five Elements Bracelet, he planned to take the map and stroll around this building again to see if there were any other monsters. If there were, he would hunt them down, which could be considered as helping the residents in this building a little.
Perhaps it was really as Yang Wei said, there was some unknown force interfering with everything here.
But soon, the phone disconnected again, and there was no sound.
"Who is fishing for all living things?" Xuan Yuezi suddenly shouted, her voice spreading across the sky.
The true dragon roared, tearing through the vacuum and shaking the firmament.
"Hey, Little Li, I asked you to come over and give me a hand, and you're either getting lost or losing contact. Where have you run off to now? I've been waiting for nearly an hour and haven't seen your shadow. You're making me lose face in front of my friends. Fortunately, I have great strength and ability, so I can hold on. If it were someone else, they would have died who knows how many times."
Li Yi opened the door and picked up these two things.
Needless to say, it must be Yang Wei.
Fortunately, his luck wasn't bad.
In this ghost place, only Yang Wei could get through to his phone, which had no signal; it was simply outrageous. A gust of wind instantly poured in through the crack in the door, and then the wind turned into a fierce fire, immediately spreading out to form a huge flame. This flame instantly enveloped the Death Soul Monster behind the door. Accompanied by the burning of the fierce fire, the Death Soul Monster's body was ignited, and at the same time, it let out a painful scream.
Just as he was about to continue on his way.
The Great Wind-Calling Method should be useful.
Only for a moment, he saw a rapidly moving light in the distance. It was an old-fashioned steam train shuttling through the city. In this world where evil things were everywhere, this old train seemed to have become the only means of transportation.
Then she grabbed Li Yi's hand, quickly hid her aura, and fled toward the train.
After all, the wind-calling fire could even burn a cultivator's Golden Core and Nascent Soul to death, let alone a Death Soul Monster.
Just by riding the clouds and flying over a few buildings, Li Yi saw at least five or six Death Soul Monsters emitting strange crying and laughing sounds, then holding sickles and killing their way over.
Now, the number of Death Soul Monsters was not just five or six, but a large group. A casual glance showed at least a hundred.
A seemingly casual strike didn't have small power. It stood to reason that it should be enough to kill this kind of monster.
And correspondingly, the top floor of the building and the middle floors' energy fields became weak, no longer enough to completely defend against the invasion of evil things from outside.
"Ordinary attacks are useless. It seems this Death Soul Monster belongs to the soul category. Only attacks that damage the soul can be effective." Li Yi immediately realized.
It was unusually sharp and could easily split metal. Moreover, ancient runes were carved on the wooden handle. These runes seemed to possess some kind of magic, making the blade of the sickle emit a faint cold light, which gave this sickle the ability to damage other people's souls.
He flew over the city, observing the situation around him.
In an instant, her flower of magic power bloomed, and the Dragon-Tiger Magic Power condensed. She raised her hand, and a magic power true dragon circled on her palm, then she slapped it across the air toward the tear in the dark sky.
"This corpse is linked to the entire building. If the corpse is incomplete, the corresponding position of the building will also appear weak, and monsters can take the opportunity to enter this building." Xuan Yuezi pointed to the female corpse's face and chest.
"Is that a fishing line?" Li Yi's expression changed slightly.
"No one is a born expert. You must have confidence in yourself. I hope I can still see you next time I come back." Li Yi patted him on the shoulder, giving him encouragement, but still left without looking back. Liu Ming held the Death Soul Sickle in his hand and didn't continue to hold him back, but watched the two of them leave.
Riding the clouds!
Then he took out the Death Soul Sickle from the Five Elements Bracelet and gave it to this Liu Ming.
But soon.
Xuan Yuezi stared at the dark sky above her head with a solemn expression.
And the fallen flesh and blood were quickly absorbed by the nearby buildings.
However, the dark firmament had no response.
"Go."
His phone rang again.
Bang! A huge sound echoed. The sickle in the Death Soul Monster's hand split a corner of the gate, and the cold, gleaming, sharp sickle got stuck on the gate. A huge force came, shaking the gate with a clanging sound, teetering on the edge of collapse. But fortunately, the architecture here had the blessing of some kind of force, which could block the monster's attack, making it impossible for the Death Soul Monster to easily escape from the room.
However, Li Yi's strike passed through the body and did not cause any damage to the Death Soul Monster, but instead angered this Death Soul Monster.
Perhaps Li Yi's performance of the Great Wind-Calling Method made too much noise, disturbing some unknown existence.
He studied this sickle.
There were huge hungry wolves, man-eating monsters, and eerie artifacts.
"So that's how it is." Li Yi suddenly understood and immediately understood the principle.
However, considering that he didn't have enough gold coins in his hand to buy a train ticket, his gaze turned to the group of Death Soul Monsters chasing him relentlessly behind him.
But this world was boundless, and everywhere were these square-shaped buildings. Each building was exactly the same, simply a maze.
"It's very dangerous outside, but I think I should be able to handle it. Thank you for your reminder." Li Yi said, continuing to walk out of the passage.
Suddenly.
Li Yi immediately chased after it, hoping to take the opportunity to get on the train when it arrived at the station.
The buildings that absorbed the flesh and blood all glowed at this moment. All the lights in all the buildings turned on at once, and at the same time, a strange energy field radiated out.
A blood-red eerie fishhook floated, and at this moment, it flew straight toward him.
Thinking of this, Li Yi operated his Daoist methods, controlled the power, and spat.
"Fairy, what's wrong with you?" Li Yi's expression changed.
With just one strike, the dark sky was blasted open with a hideous tear. Through that tear, sunlight actually spilled down, but soon, the nearby darkness shrouded over, filling in the torn tear again.
The flesh and blood there disappeared, leaving only a stark white skeleton.
"Oh, why is that?" Li Yi asked.
After Liu Ming took it, he was silent for a moment: "Bu, but my strength is very weak. Even if you give me such a good weapon, I might not be able to beat the monsters."
Xuan Yuezi's delicate body trembled, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out. She widened her eyes, revealing an expression of disbelief.
After Li Yi hung up the phone, he didn't linger in this building, but immediately returned to the first floor, intending to leave here. Although he didn't have enough gold coins, he could just go outside and kill a Death Soul Monster. Although this was difficult for others, it was very easy for him.
His figure was elusive, shuttling back and forth between the buildings.
But even so, the fishing line that had hung down from the depths of the darkness earlier still locked onto Li Yi and wouldn't let go, and it kept floating toward his location.
"The eye on the fishhook has locked onto me." Li Yi soon discovered the reason.
Xuan Yuezi's expression moved slightly: "I can't make a move anymore. My aura has already been exposed. If I make a move again, I will definitely be detected by some terrifying living being in the darkness, and then it will bring greater danger. You must find a way to cut off that fishing line, or kill that fishhook. If you can't do it, I can only take you away from here."
