Zhou Ming was dumbfounded. Although the gray-robed man was also surprised, his brows were tightly knitted. He seemed to be even more puzzled.
Above Tianji City, two rays of light, one black and one red, flashed across the sky. It was Shen Luo and that black shadow. In the blink of an eye, they had flown 20 to 30 miles. That black shadow's speed was unbelievably fast. Shen Luo was already riding on his sword with all his might, but he still couldn't catch up.
Moreover, the black shadow's body was flashing with light and emitting an extremely cold aura. It blocked Shen Luo's divine senses. Until now, he still couldn't figure out who that black shadow was.
The two of them quickly came to a barren mountainous area. Not far ahead was the restriction of Tianji City. That black shadow didn't seem to have any intention of stopping.
Seeing that they had already left the bustling area of Tianji City, Shen Luo's arms suddenly released the Wind and Thunder Spirit Light. Two majestic golden and green light pillars were shot behind him. His speed suddenly increased by several times. In the blink of an eye, he caught up with the black shadow.
He shouted angrily and grabbed at the void with his right hand.
Five thick golden electric arcs shot out from his hand and turned into five golden thunder snakes that entangled the black shadow. Then, they suddenly exploded.
The golden electric arcs hit the black shadow fiercely and burst out with a powerful destructive force. Suddenly, the layer of black light outside the black shadow was torn apart.
The golden electric arcs sizzled and continued to pounce on the black light.
However, before Shen Luo could rejoice, there was a loud "chi chi" sound from the black shadow. Several black lights shot out and easily shattered the golden electric arcs. They shot toward Shen Luo's chest like arrows. They were a few black feathers.
Shen Luo frowned. His body swayed and dodged to the side. At the same time, he flicked his fingers. More than ten red Sword Qi collided with the black feathers.
Bang, bang, bang!
The red Sword Qi and the black feathers shattered upon contact. They couldn't stop the black feathers at all. The black feathers flashed and appeared in front of Shen Luo in the blink of an eye.
Shen Luo's face sank. A golden light flashed in his hand, and the Black and Yellow Unifying Rod appeared in his hand. He swept it out.
A golden stick shadow collided with a few black feathers, and issued a loud 'clang' sound. The black feathers were shaken, and scattered in all directions. Then, they all split into pieces with a 'pop' sound.
However, Shen Luo's body also swayed slightly before he could steady himself. His face revealed a look of surprise.
Those black feathers were only the length of a finger. They were insignificant, but they actually contained such astonishing power.
The black shadow took advantage of the gap when Shen Luo was shaken back, and jumped down towards a short mountain below. In the blink of an eye, it had left Shen Luo behind by a distance.
However, Shen Luo immediately steadied himself and chased after him like a bolt of lightning.
The black shadow quickly flew into the short mountain and stopped at the top of a mountain.
Seeing this, Shen Luo's eyes flickered, but he did not approach immediately. Instead, he stopped in mid-air a few dozen feet away.
"Who exactly are you? Why do you want to steal my Nine Turns Wrapping Iron Chain? This is Tianji City. Robbing and killing are strictly prohibited. As long as I shout, I don't even need to do anything. The people of Tianji City will not sit idly by, "he said in a low voice.
"Oh, then why don't you try shouting twice?" The black shadow let out a hoarse voice. The black light on its surface slowly dissipated, revealing its true body.
Shen Luo was stunned. The black shadow in front of him was not a human, but a black wooden bird Yan Jia. Its mouth opened and closed as it spoke in human language.
This wooden bird Yan Jia was very lifelike. Its eyes flashed with red spiritual light, and it was looking at Shen Luo mockingly. It was almost the same as a real bird. This bird's pitch-black wings were tightly attached to its back, and it was covered with black feathers. It was exactly the same as the black feathers that had attacked before.
"Yan Jia! Are you from Tianji City? How dare you steal my treasure in front of everyone? How dare you! "Shen Luo quickly recovered and questioned.
"How dare I? I think you are the one who is truly daring. You actually used hypnosis to confuse the disciples of Tianji City and obtain confidential information. It has been many years since anyone has had this kind of courage. "The black wooden bird sneered slightly, and said a few words that made Shen Luo tremble in fear.
"You …" Shen Luo's eyes widened. When he hypnotized Zhou Ming, his technique was very subtle. Even cultivators of the same level would not be able to detect it at close range. However, the person behind the Yan Jia saw through it.
"Who exactly are you, sir? Please show yourself. "He quickly took a deep breath and regained his composure. He cupped his hands and said to the black wooden bird.
"Oh, you can still maintain your composure now. Your temperament is not bad. As for my identity, you are about to die. Naturally, there is no need for you to know." A cold light flashed in the black wooden bird's eyes, and it flapped its wings and flew over.
Shen Luo did not expect the other party to attack just like that. The moon shadow under his feet shone brightly, and he quickly retreated. The light of wind and thunder also appeared on his arms. Green wind blades and golden lightning formed, and he was about to release them at the black wooden bird.
However, the black wooden bird's wings flashed with black light, and suddenly trembled rapidly. It caused the nearby space to fluctuate, and the wooden bird turned into a black thread, disappearing on the way.
Shen Luo cried out in surprise. His eyes immediately shone with green light, and his divine sense also spread out, looking for traces of the other party. Then, his expression suddenly changed. A full moon shadow appeared under his feet, and it quickly rotated.
His body turned into a phantom with a "whoosh", and he rushed to the left. In a flash, he appeared more than a hundred feet away.
Almost at the same time, a slender black line appeared where he was standing before, and flew past in a flash.
The black line cut through a small hill below, and half of the hill was silently cut off. The cut was extremely smooth, like the surface of a mirror.
Shen Luo saw this scene, and felt a chill in his heart. His green eyes quickly turned to the left and right, as if he was looking for something.
"You can dodge the first flash of the Nine Flashes of Wind. You have some skill. Let's try the second flash." The black wooden bird's voice resounded in the nearby void. Its position changed, and it was impossible to tell where it was coming from.
As soon as the voice fell, two void fluctuations appeared on Shen Luo's left and right side. Two strange black lines appeared out of thin air without any warning. They cut down like two black lightning bolts, and were much faster than the previous black line.
Shen Luo's pupils shrank. He had already activated his Netherworld Ghost Eye and divine sense to the maximum, but he still could not see how these black lines appeared.
However, he did not have much time to think. The moon shadow under his feet shone brightly, and brilliant starlight appeared on his legs. At the same time, he used the Slanting Moon Step and the Shifting Shadows. His body shot backwards, and escaped from the gap between the two black lines.
"Pay attention, the third flash!" The black wooden bird's voice resounded again. No less than five black lines appeared behind Shen Luo out of thin air, and flew down from all directions.
The two black lines in front of him flew again, and blocked the way in front.
Shen Luo's body had not yet stabilized, and he immediately fell into a desperate situation. He let out a low shout, and the Heaven and Earth Single Energy Staff in his hand danced wildly. A shadow of the staff emerged, and met the attacking black lines.
"Dang, dang, dang!" A series of loud sounds rang out!
Shen Luo's body and arms shook. The Heaven and Earth Single Energy Staff was almost blown away, but the black lines also shook open a gap.
The starlight and moon shadow on his legs shone brightly, and a dazzling light of wind and thunder appeared on his arms. He shot forward, and his whole body shot backwards with incomparable speed, and flew out of the gap.
However, the Heaven and Earth Single Energy Staff in his hand was bumpy, and there were several deep marks on it. Although it was not broken, the light on the surface was very dim, and it looked like it could no longer be used.
