Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

As the sun sets, the afterglow illuminates a golden sky. The sunset glows like a flame, dyeing the entire sky orange and red.

On a muddy path, two figures walked slowly, their steps were not fast but very steady.

"Master, it's getting dark. There's no village or shop in this place. We won't have to sleep on the street again." Li Zhi looked exhausted and looked at Master Liu with resentment.

Master Liu was calm and composed. He said, "Walk a little further. I remember there seems to be a Taoist temple ahead."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi could only follow Master Liu's pace, practicing his sword skills as he walked. There were not many people on this road, so Li Zhi was not afraid of hurting innocent people by mistake.

It has been several days since he and Master Liu left the He Mansion. Li Zhi has indeed benefited a lot from following Master Liu along the way. Master Liu has great insights into magic and swordsmanship.

As the two walked, the sky gradually darkened. When the last ray of afterglow disappeared over the horizon, night had already fallen.

"Didn't you say it was just ahead? Why haven't I seen it yet? I can't walk anymore! I told you to stay in that village for a night, but you refused!" Li Zhi had completely lost his previous energy and hung his head dejectedly.

Immortal Master Liu glanced at Li Zhi with disdain and said, "You can't walk anymore after walking just this short distance?"

"We've been walking for a whole day. Even a donkey needs to take a rest." Li Zhi complained.

As soon as Li Zhi finished speaking, Master Liu's eyes widened with anger and he shouted, "How dare you, you evil creature!"

Li Zhi was startled, but he came to his senses in an instant. He did not look back, but rushed towards Master Liu.

Master Liu passed by Li Zhi and slapped him with his palm!

"bump!"

There was a muffled sound.

A black shadow was knocked away by Master Liu.

Li Zhi quickly turned around and saw a big black dog.

After being hit by Master Liu's palm, the black dog fell to the ground, twitching and making a whining sound from its mouth.

After a while, seven or eight black dogs appeared, and several big black dogs surrounded Li Zhi and his men.

These seven or eight big black dogs were huge in size, with hair as black as ink. Their eyes were glowing red, and their mouths were filled with sharp teeth.

These big black dogs looked ferocious and cunning. They did not rush over to bite Li Zhi and his team immediately, but circled around them continuously, as if they would attack at any time if they found a gap.

"Is it a monster?" Li Zhi asked uncertainly.

Immortal Master Liu shook his head and said, "No, it doesn't have any demonic aura, but it must have been tamed by someone using a secret method. Ordinary wild dogs don't have such aura."

Hearing that it was not a monster, Li Zhi felt relieved. As long as it was not a monster, no matter how ferocious the dog was, it was just a dog.

While the two were talking, a black dog quietly crept up behind Li Zhi.

The black dog jumped high, opened its mouth wide, revealing its ferocious fangs, and was about to bite off Li Zhi's neck.

Li Zhi's eyes flashed, and he said with a disdainful smile: "Do you really think I have no defense at all?"

He moved his index finger, and a copper coin tied with a red rope fell down.

After the copper coin fell, it bounced back due to the pull of the red rope.

Li Zhi's voice also rang out at the same time: "A-Er!"

An extremely gloomy aura, carrying with it endless chill, emerged, as if coming from the underworld, making people shudder.

The big black dog that jumped high and tried to bite off Li Zhi's throat stopped in the air. Then, a dark-skinned little ghost with blue light appeared on the black dog.

I saw the little devil lying on the black dog's back with his mouth wide open. His jagged but sharp and ferocious fangs were no worse than those of the black dog.

The little devil bit the black dog hard on its back.

The big black dog whined and fell from mid-air.

The other black dogs were frightened, but they were all overwhelmed by the little ghost's aura and dared not move forward. They could only watch their companions being bitten by the little ghost.

"Wangwu——"

A black dog that seemed to be the leader barked loudly, as if calling on other black dogs to attack Li Zhi and the others.

The big black dog in the lead barked and then pounced towards Li Zhi.

The other black dogs also pounced on Li Zhi at the same time, leaving Master Liu aside.

As wild beasts' instincts allowed these black dogs to sense that Master Liu was extremely dangerous, so none of them dared to attack him.

Master Liu stood still, watching with an expressionless face, and had no intention of helping Li Zhi.

Li Zhi naturally realized that these black dogs were looking for him as a weak target, but he was still not afraid.

The middle finger and the ring finger moved, and two more copper coins tied with red ropes fell down.

"Asan, Ah Si, come out!" Li Zhi shouted.

The air was filled with gloomy air and a biting cold wind swept past. Two blurry figures slowly solidified in front of Li Zhi.

A slightly larger ghost and a slightly hunchbacked ghost appeared.

Several big black dogs that rushed towards them were immediately blocked by the two little ghosts that had just appeared.

Only two big black dogs jumped out from the side and ran straight towards Li Zhi without any obstruction.

Li Zhi's expression remained unchanged and he drew the black sword in his hand.

He gripped the hilt tightly and swung his arm violently. A cold light flashed and the sword in his hand slashed out like a dragon emerging from the sea!

This sword was so powerful that it seemed to cut off everything in front of it!

The sword drew a graceful arc in the air, and the sharp edge slashed across the big black dog.

The big black dog let out a scream and was cut in half by Li Zhi's sword!

Li Zhi continued his attack. He took a step forward, passed the black dog that he had cut in half, and swung out with the sword again.

The sword was like a flash of lightning, slashing towards the other big black dog!

The rune-covered sword drew a sharp sword shadow in the air, carrying unparalleled momentum and power, and headed straight for the big black dog.

This big black dog was the leader. It felt the powerful pressure and a trace of fear flashed in its eyes. It opened its mouth, let out a low growl, then jumped up, trying to avoid the fatal blow.

However, all this was in vain. The sword flashed and the big black dog's body was instantly pierced by the black sword, and blood splattered everywhere.

The big black dog's originally scarlet and ferocious eyes became empty and lifeless, and its body fell heavily to the ground, without any movement.

"stop!"

A roar sounded.

A young man rushed out from the side.

The young man had a resolute and sinister face, holding a banner in his hand, and he hurried over.

When he saw the corpses of several black dogs on the ground, the young man's already sinister expression became even uglier. Without waiting for Li Zhi and the others to speak, he gritted his teeth and said, "Dare to kill my black dogs, I want you to pay with your lives!"

The young man raised the flag in his hand. There was a strange rune in the middle of the brown flag, which looked like some kind of text or talisman, but Li Zhi didn't recognize it.

However, Li Zhi was extremely familiar with the aura emanating from this flag.

That is the breath of ghosts and spirits!

I saw the young man waving the flag in his hand vigorously, and a gust of cold wind suddenly arose.

There were gusts of cold wind, and dozens of ghosts rushed out from the young man's banner. These dozens of ghosts gathered together and turned into a torrent, roaring towards Li Zhi.

Li Zhi's eyebrows twitched wildly, he knew this was a signal that he felt extremely dangerous.

He did not dare to underestimate it, so he stretched out his hand and dropped a copper coin between his thumb and little finger. As the coins fell, two phantoms appeared in front of Li Zhi.

Li Zhi spread out his five fingers, with five copper coins tied with red ropes hanging under his five fingers.

"Five ghosts gather!"

Li Zhi growled.

The five little ghosts immediately gathered together, stood in front of Li Zhi, and collided violently with the torrent of ghosts.

"Boom——"

There was a loud bang and Li Zhi felt his soul shaken.

Although the five little ghosts blocked the attack of the ghost, they were already at the end of their strength. Now these five little ghosts were fed by Li Zhi with his own blood every day. He was reluctant to use the little ghosts as disposable items as before, so he quickly put the five ghosts back into the copper coin.

As for the young man, when he saw that the torrent of ghosts that had been so unstoppable before was actually blocked, a trace of surprise flashed across his face, but then he returned to normal. He frowned, waved the flag, and many ghosts poured out of the flag. The torrent of ghosts circled around him and then rushed towards Li Zhi again.

After Li Zhi took back the five ghosts, he did not stop. He bit his finger and wiped the blood on the black sword.

The runes on the black sword twisted and transformed into scarlet eyes again.

Li Zhi held the black sword tightly in both hands, his eyes determined.

He slashed at the torrent of ghosts with a sword!
