[Tianxia 3][Ghost ink X Wumeihou] I can't see the sky

Zhuo Junwu's eyes were fixed on this conversation, relying on his intuition trained as a warrior for many years, he suddenly smelled a very slight fluctuation in the air.

"The situation is different! Withdraw!!"

However, it was too late to shout out loud.

The dark light on the ground moved slightly, and a huge magic circle suddenly lit up in the center of the battlefield, with a radius of several hundred feet, circulating many strange characters that no one could recognize.Countless iron cables like giant snakes soared into the sky, twisting and turning towards the crowd.The attack was too sudden, and the range of the magic circle was huge. The thousands of demon soldiers present were unable to react in time, and all of them were caught.But in a blink of an eye, those iron chains wrapped around their limbs and tightened them tightly, binding them one by one like rice dumplings, unable to struggle anymore.

At this moment, those who can rush to the front are the most elite soldiers in the army. Their actions are restrained, and the follow-up troops cannot immediately reinforce them, and their combat power is immediately cut by half.All of a sudden, the sound of weapons falling to the ground, the sound of iron locks shaking and the knocking sound, and the struggle and roar of the monster rang together.

"You... when...!" Chief was beside Zhuan Xu, unable to move, he could only watch helplessly as the magic circle continued to expand, and more and more monsters were bound within it, before saying after a long while, "The scale of this spell is so large. Big, it can't be done overnight... Before you showed up, you had already started to arrange it secretly. The sudden appearance just now was just to attract attention and prevent us from noticing the growing stale air around us, right?"

There was a smile on Zhuan Xu's face, he only concentrated on manipulating the magic circle, and did not answer his question.

Soon, the situation on the battlefield was completely reversed.The king in mid-air stood quietly in front of the throne like Yue Zhi. He was alone, and with a few spells, he was able to overwhelm an army of more than a thousand.The demons had never seen such a turbulent and huge magic power, and each of them felt that even the air seemed to be heavy, and they were forced to be unable to lift their heads, trembling with fear.As for You Huang, Zhuo Junwu and others, although they could barely maintain their minds, their limbs were bound and they couldn't move at all.

I knew that Youdu King was extremely powerful, but this strength is still beyond imagination.Most of the powers of the Heavenly God Emperor Jiang, the Human King Zhuanxu, and the Demon God Guguang were lost during the three generations, but what remained was still unmatched by extraordinary people.The battle just now seemed to have a hidden chance of victory, but it was because the opponent secretly kept his hand.

Seeing that the defeat was becoming more and more obvious, Chief's heart gradually sank, his narrow red eyes slightly narrowed, and he said in a low voice: "... Enough! What are you going to do?!"

Zhuan Xu chuckled: "You should regret it. If you have been obediently being your devil in Ye'an City, keeping a low profile, choosing generals to train soldiers, who knows what will happen after a thousand years? You could have had many opportunities, but It's a pity that you don't want to wait. Because... that kid!" The voice turned sharp in an instant.He only heard You Huang's low cry from the ground, which contained some vague pain, but immediately restrained himself.The chains that restrained him tightened suddenly, and his dark robe and pale skin were stretched out, as if his body and limbs would be strangled in the next moment.There are also two knots around the neck, if it is not for the dead, I am afraid that I can't even breathe at this moment.

The chieftain didn't make a sound, but his face was a little pale.Zhuanxu looked at him with satisfaction, then looked down at the young Ghost Mo who was still struggling with the chains carefully, and said after a while: "I'm curious, what is so special about that kid that can make someone who has kept himself safe for 300 years?" Wu Meihou, would you risk your life and wealth for him?"

When Chief heard this, he became angry and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about?! How could I be doing it for him!"

Zhuan Xu said, "No?"

The chief said: "Of course not! I am a demon of Beiming, a humble and fragile mortal like an ant, so why would I care!"

Seeing his decisive answer, Zhuanxu smiled again, and said leisurely: "...Really? If so, let's verify whether it is true or not. As I said just now, I am very curious about this kid, so why not Now cut him open and study it carefully."

... cut open?

Chief's eyes widened, and his body froze suddenly.But Zhuan Xu approached his ear very intimately, and deliberately said each word slowly: "...Wu Meihou usually likes to think about various methods of torture, and the beast prison also uses severe punishment. However, in my opinion, most of Beiming’s punishments seem bloody and brutal, but in fact they are rough and boring. By chance, how about I invite you to watch a very famous punishment in the world with your own eyes? This trip is called "Ling Chi". , presumably interested in—”

While speaking, he summoned another corpse soldier, holding a sharp dagger, and staggered towards the immobile Ghost Mo.Several disciples from the top ten sects around screamed in surprise, and even the monsters not far away were in an uproar for an instant. Their eyes were either shocked or panicked, and they stared at the distance between the two sides, which was getting closer and closer step by step.

For Zhuan Xu, he had done things that were much more cruel and bloody than this, and he still enjoyed it.Since he said it, he will definitely do it.

The chief struggled vigorously, but the chain was tight, and he still couldn't find the slightest flaw.There were dozens of ideas in my mind, but none of them could be implemented. I just felt tense for a while, turned my head to look at Zhuanxu, and said bitterly: "...The king thinks that he has been idle in Beiming for a long time, and he has become more and more bored. stand up."

Zhuanxu only said, "Are you talking about me, or yourself?"

In a blink of an eye, the corpse soldier had already walked in front of You Huang, and with a hiss of the dagger, he cut open the front of the front, and his robe slipped off, revealing his naked chest.Because of his unsteady movements, there was a thin line of blood in the middle of his chest, and black blood ink was faintly oozing out.

The panicked voices all around became louder and harsher.You Huang didn't pay attention, and under heavy restraints, he only raised his head with difficulty, looking past the corpse soldiers and facing the chieftain.The ruby-like eyes were staring at him motionlessly, full of anxiety that could not be concealed, You Huang suddenly smiled very easily: "...that bastard is right, the opportunity is rare, take a good look, don't mess around move--"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped.Almost at the same time, the monsters who were still shouting and screaming suddenly fell into silence as if their throats were stuck.Right in front of their eyes, the corpse soldier held a dagger and pierced Youhuang's chest without hesitation, the tip sank half an inch.Black blood gushed out immediately, and slid down the lower abdomen, forming a weird ink painting on the blue and white background.The dagger cut back and forth, and finally parted a small piece of flesh, and threw it on the ground with a thud, dragging out a few wet spots.

It was as if even time stood still for a moment.

In the solemn silence, You Huang was the first to recover.He looked at the ground and raised his head again, with a smile on his face again, but he said to King Youdu: "...that's all. This skill is very unfamiliar, and the position of the knife is wrong. , the force is wrong, and the movements are clumsy, no matter which point is far behind us, it seems that you still have a lot to learn."

Zhuanxu seemed to be surprised by his attitude for a moment, propped his head on one hand, and replied: "...Indeed. My subordinates act recklessly, and they are really not very good at such fine work. It just so happens that you are very experienced in this field. Today, you might as well have a good taste of them, and you can also give them some guidance, I think it will benefit a lot.”

After saying that, he raised his other hand slightly, the corpse soldier got the order, took a step forward, and slashed a second time against the wound just now.The blood ink slid down again and merged into the broken robe around his waist.Immediately afterwards, the third knife, the fourth knife...

The monsters who reacted widened their eyes with different shapes, and gasped one after another. Even for them, the scene in front of them was extremely intimidating.You Huang has not made a sound since the first cut, and there is still a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if the knife that pierced into the flesh did not cut him, only the hands that were tied to the sides of the body and clenched in convulsions could do it. It was shown that he was in severe pain.Soon, the hem of the robe was completely soaked with his own blood, because it was all pitch black, the change was not obvious, but the blood ink on the dusty ground gradually merged into a puddle drop by drop.

Zhuo Junwu couldn't stand it any longer, he struggled desperately to shake the chain, and shouted: "——Stop!!".

Zhuanxu glanced at him, but ignored him.At this moment, Chief had already been pulled into his arms by him, with one arm around his shoulders, as if he was very fond of him.Zhuan Xu was in a leisurely manner, admiring the execution of the punishment, and pointing softly: "This Ling Chi is the worst punishment in the world, and there are a lot of details behind it. Would you like to hear it, Wumeihou?" Without waiting for an answer, he himself Gu Zi continued, "...in order to prolong the pain of the prisoner, the more cuts must be made and the longer the duration, the better. People cannot be killed, so each cut is very careful, along the texture of the muscle, cutting small If the executioner is experienced, he can cut a full [-] knives. At the beginning of dozens of knives, the blood flowed profusely, and the scene was terrible, but after the end, the blood gradually stopped. Sometimes It took a whole day to finish the execution, so the prisoner was removed, fed some food, and continued the next day. In the scene I saw back then, the prisoner screamed in pain and lasted for three full days before he died. I don’t know How long can this ghost-mob boy last for a few days?"

The utterly malicious words hit the chief's ears, but he didn't seem to hear them at all, and just stared blankly at the dark figure bound in the field.Everything that happened just now seemed to have slowed down, making it too late for him to react. He only felt the pain in his heart as if it was about to shatter, and his mind was in chaos.The thick ink-like bloodstains gradually enlarged in the field of vision, gradually occupying the entire area, and the sky and fields were filled with thick blackness. As for the rest, I couldn't see anything, and I couldn't remember anything.

The punishment was still going on, and the dark blood ink flowed more and more, soaking the soil deeply.

"No...stop..." Chief trembled all over, struggling in vain to escape from Zhuanxu, wanting to save the person in pain.I still vaguely remember that not long ago, beside the city of Shuzhou, under the pine trees and under the moon, I hugged each other tightly and made a promise with full of regret.He said that this life would never make him suffer again, but in the end he failed to do so.If it wasn't for helping the chieftain, Youhuang would never come to Beiming again, let alone fall into danger and be tortured by King Youdu.For a moment, the chieftain began to regret, regretting that he was too self-confident, ignorant of the seriousness, and reckless of the consequences. If he had known this, no matter how You Huang tried to persuade him, he should not have been involved.

If I ask Zhuanxu at this time...if I ask him...

That guy has been planning for a long time, just waiting for this moment when he surrenders.However……

Chief hesitated, lowered his head inadvertently, and met Ghost Mo's staring eyes for a moment.You Huang's arm had been cut so deep that the bone was visible, his long pale hair was soaked in cold sweat, mixed with blood, sticking to the skin in strands.His eyes were still clear, with a gentle yet firm light.

—Don't throw in the towel, he said.
