Chapter 96

Meng Su shook his head.

Shi Xiaoxiao took over the conversation: "Brother, I know. Wangmo Corner is an ownerless land at the junction of the Monster Forest and the Black Demon Sea. It is sparsely populated, infested with monsters, and has an extremely harsh environment. Later, it became a place where the Demon Capital exiled criminals. Due to the lack of control, over time, all kinds of demon heads, great paths, and desperate people gathered at Wangmo Corner, and Wangmo Corner became a place where fish and dragons are mixed."

Li Xiu smiled: "Since its formation, Wangmo Corner has become a place for demon cultivators to exchange resources. The Demon Capital has the Nine Cauldrons Pavilion, and loose cultivators have Wangmo Corner."

Meng Su: "Do you mean that this Dao Yi You Dao will auction the treasure map at Wangmo Corner?"

Li Xiu: "Exactly. However, the journey to Wangmo Corner is long, and there is no teleportation array that directly reaches that bitter and cold place. You can only rely on walking or flying. As far as I know, Dao Yi You Dao has been active in the Demon Capital recently. She also needs some time to go to Wangmo Corner to auction or exchange the treasure map. If you walk at a normal speed, you should be able to meet her. After you arrive at Wangmo Corner, use the Sound Transmission Demon Jade to notify us. I will arrange for the Demon Capital to release the news, making Dao Yi You Dao think that her plan cannot be implemented. She will definitely go to Wangmo Corner to exchange for the things she wants."

The next day, the three of them embarked on the road east. Along the way, Li Bai kept reciting poems and showing off to Shi Xiaoxiao, which made Meng Su unable to laugh or cry.

The Tang Principality had hundreds of prefectures. After several days of continuous travel, they had already reached the border of the Tang Principality. Leaving the Tang Principality, there was a boundless wilderness. The wilderness had complex terrain, combining various terrains, undeveloped primitive forests, deserts, wilderness, and even lakes.

Meng Su, Li Bai, and Shi Xiaoxiao descended into a small town on the border of the Tang Principality to make supplies for entering the wilderness.

This small town was a small county town in a prefecture of the Tang Principality. Although this county town was small, there were many people, all of whom were cultivators who had stopped to enter the wilderness, and this place had a bit more exotic style compared to the center of the Tang Principality.

The three of Meng Su descended onto a street, admiring the countless buildings with exotic styles and all kinds of people. Meng Su actually discovered beauties and handsome men with blonde hair and blue eyes. Everyone walked on the street without the slightest sense of disharmony.

It was noon, and it was summer. Meng Su looked up at the scorching sun above his head. Many ordinary people on the road were sweating profusely from the heat, but cultivators had spiritual power or demon power to protect their bodies, so they couldn't feel the heat at all.

Just as Meng Su looked at the sun, suddenly Meng Su felt that the sun before his eyes seemed to have become two suns, and the sun had a double image.

Meng Su's vigilance arose. He looked back at Li Bai: "Is this illusion cast by you?"

Li Bai was stunned: "What illusion?"

Meng Su was shocked and struck Li Bai with a palm. A white light flashed on his palm, and an Escape Void Pill was crushed by Meng Su. A teleportation force wrapped around Li Bai, and Li Bai disappeared. Then Meng Su glanced at Shi Xiaoxiao. His body followed his thought, acting on both of them at the same time. In the blink of an eye, Meng Su and Shi Xiaoxiao met quickly, Meng Su hugged Shi Xiaoxiao, and then flew quickly into the air.

Meng Su, who flew into the air, looked at the ground. Because the sunlight was strong, when the three of them were walking on the ground, they all left deep shadows behind them. But as Meng Su flew quickly into the air, the shadow Meng Su left on the ground actually did not disappear and remained on the ground.

An eerie, faint laughter sounded: "Hmph, you have some ability. No wonder we lost two people."

This voice floated in the air, as if it had been blown into pieces by a strong wind, making it impossible to lock onto the position.

A pitch-black long sword appeared before Meng Su. The sword body was long and narrow, pitch-black in color, and even carried traces of black mist. As the black sword appeared in the void, a figure slowly condensed behind the sword.

The figure was pitch-black, looking like a black paper person, a two-dimensional creature, looking like a projection left behind a person after being illuminated by the sun.

At this moment, the projection left by Meng Su on the ground had disappeared. Clearly, it had reached Meng Su's side through some means.

Meng Su pushed Shi Xiaoxiao behind him, protecting her, and then reached out and pointed toward the sky. A silver light from his finger flew into the void and disappeared into the sky.

That black sword looked slow, but it was actually very fast. Meng Su didn't have time to dodge and extended his left hand to flick at the black sword. The Intent Finger Flick, which had always been invincible, lost its effect this time. The black sword turned into nothingness under the flick of his finger. When Meng Su's Intent Finger Flick ended, the black sword appeared again, piercing through Meng Su's palm with one sword, and the black sword continued to thrust upward, directly piercing toward Meng Su's arm. Meng Su's arm was pierced by the black sword.

Blood splashed into the void as the black sword pierced in.

Shi Xiaoxiao behind him felt that Meng Su had been injured and was about to step forward to fight the black shadow, but was pushed far away by Meng Su.

After the black sword pierced Meng Su's left hand, the black shadow quickly solidified in front of Meng Su's chest and struck Meng Su's chest with a palm.

This palm was silent and had no locking power, but as this palm was struck, a black palm print quickly appeared on Meng Su's chest, and then the black shadow quickly solidified, and a huge demon power rushed into Meng Su's chest.

Meng Su was struck by this eerie palm and retreated more than ten zhang, spitting blood wildly.

Originally, Meng Su wanted to use this retreat force to get rid of the black sword's strangulation so that he could use the Reincarnation Lotus to restore his arm, but as the sun shone from the sky, Meng Su's shadow retreated along with Meng Su.

The black shadow that attacked Meng Su disappeared and actually appeared behind Meng Su again, following Meng Su's body to the place where Meng Su landed, and then another sword strike.

Meng Su watched as that sword slowly pierced into his heart. Meng Su's powerful thought power actually lost its effect. That black sword seemed to have no physical body, and thought power could not be loaded onto that black sword at all.

Helpless, Meng Su could only repeat his old trick, using his thought power to move his heart away from its original position. A hole appeared where Meng Su's heart was, and the black sword pierced directly into the hole, piercing Meng Su through. Seeing Meng Su injured one after another and finally pierced by the long sword, Shi Xiaoxiao cried out: "Brother."

Shi Xiaoxiao had just stood firm when she turned into a meteor and pounced on the eerie black shadow. The black shadow seemed to have little intelligence and only focused on killing Meng Su. Seeing Shi Xiaoxiao kill him, he did not dodge. Seeing the eerie black shadow, Shi Xiaoxiao judged that this should be the demon body of some demon cultivator in the Demon Realm. This demon body was ineffective by conventional means, but Shi Xiaoxiao had the Demon-Trapping Pill.

Shi Xiaoxiao flicked her finger at the black shadow, and a white pill exploded in the void. Then, a sealing force was released from the Demon-Trapping Pill, and the black shadow was sucked into it.

After the Demon-Trapping Pill trapped the black shadow, it quickly collapsed and condensed into a pill again.

Shi Xiaoxiao ignored the pill hanging in the air and flew to Meng Su's side, supporting Meng Su.

At this moment, Meng Su had a chance to breathe and healed the injuries he had suffered in just three breaths.
