One second genius? Live? Little Yu??? Champagne? Mound? Chapter 198 – Helping Hand!
From time to time, messy stone slabs could be seen scattered among the towering ancient trees.
Before these trees grew out, this place was most likely a square paved with stone slabs in Longquan Ancient Town.
Right in this area, a fierce battle was currently taking place.
Shouts and screams rose and fell one after another. Dozens of young men and women were fighting and running at the same time. Around them, black shadows floated around as if they were weightless, like ghosts.
"This is a vengeful spirit?"
Behind a stone wall that had more than half collapsed, Tang Huan's eyes revealed a look of surprise.
That group of young martial artists was surrounded by hundreds of wraiths. These wraiths were very similar to humans, with facial features, heads, and limbs. However, their bodies didn't seem to be made of flesh and bones, just faint shadows, even somewhat transparent.
Their attack methods were rather simple, mostly biting and tearing, but they were extremely fierce.
Moreover, their bodies seemed to be emitting a cold and gloomy aura at all times. Even though they were tens of meters away, Tang Huan could still feel the chill that seemed to want to drill into his bones. In addition, their mouths would also emit sharp and ear-piercing cries from time to time.
Those voices seemed to contain a frightening power.
However, the strangest thing was that those vengeful spirits seemed to have immortal bodies. Tang Huan personally saw a vengeful spirit being sliced in half by a sharp sword, but right after, the two halves of the vengeful spirit's body were reconnected. Other than its figure becoming fainter, it did not seem to have suffered any injuries.
Tang Huan frowned. This kind of vengeful spirit was indeed not easy to deal with. Once he was entangled by a large number of vengeful spirits, it would be difficult to escape.
"Ah!"
In the crowd, a mournful scream suddenly sounded. A young man's limbs were grabbed by several vengeful spirits and torn to shreds. One of the skinny vengeful spirits was the fastest. It immediately turned into a black light and drilled into the young man's head.
After a while, the vengeful spirit reappeared. Not only did its body solidify a bit, its eyes actually emitted a bit of red light.
"Could it be that this vengeful spirit can strengthen itself by devouring the souls of others?" Seeing that, Tang Huan was shocked.
"Long Heng is dead, Wang Xi is dead, and now Lu Jian is dead … It's over, it's over, we're all going to die here!"
"I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
"Save me, save me … I'll give anyone who can save me five million gold coins!"
"…"
The young man's miserable death scared the group of men and women out of their wits. A few of them couldn't help but cry hysterically.
"Dammit, a bunch of cowards. If they die, then so be it. What's there to be afraid of? Why are you wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves? Are there not enough vengeful spirits here?"
The sound of cursing suddenly rang out.
Tang Huan was startled, that voice actually made him feel that it was extremely familiar, and subconsciously looked towards the direction of the voice.
"Gu Ying?"
Immediately after, Mu Yan, who was at the side, could not help but exclaim softly, and Tang Huan's eyes also revealed a look of surprise.
Tens of meters away, a sturdy man brandishing a fiery red greatsword flashed out from behind a large tree. That person was more than two meters tall, with a sharp and defined face and a tall and sturdy body. It was Gu Ying. Tang Huan had caught a glimpse of the faintly discernible figure behind the tree before, but he did not expect it to be him.
Tang Huan remembered that Gu Ying had once said that he would return to the Glory Continent after the "Phoenix Spirit Martial Meeting" ended. Why did he come to the Sword Crafting Valley again, and was even in danger?
However, Gu Fei and Tang Si were not in the crowd.
Under the crazy attacks of the group of vengeful spirits, Gu Ying and the other dozen people were already in even more danger. In just a short moment, a few more people were injured by the vengeful spirits, and to such an extent, other than Gu Ying and a few others who were still fighting with their lives on the line, the rest of the people had faces full of despair, and had no will to fight at all.
"Damn it, this time I've really been harmed by this group of popinjays!"
Gu Ying barely managed to wave the gigantic sword in his hand, forcing the seven or eight vengeful spirits that were approaching him to retreat, but he could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart.
After being chased all the way here by the vengeful spirits, the Genuine Qi in his body was almost exhausted, and he could not hold on for much longer. At the beginning, there were more than thirty people in the group, and if they could work together and give it their all, their chances of escaping would be very high. Unfortunately, they met such a group of idiots. At first, they were afraid of everything, and cherished their lives like gold. Now, there were fewer and fewer people, and no matter how hard they tried, they would still die.
"Bam!"
Just as Gu Ying's gigantic sword slashed out, it was struck by a claw, and almost flew out of his hand. Although he held onto the sword hilt tightly, he staggered and fell heavily to the ground. How could the group of vengeful spirits miss such an opportunity? They all screamed and pounced forward at the same time.
"It's over!"
Although Gu Ying was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to close his eyes. He could already imagine what would happen to him, it would definitely be the same as the other Martial Warriors s who had died before, torn to pieces by a few vengeful spirits, and then his soul would be completely devoured by one of them.
However, after a while, the scene of his body being torn to shreds did not appear. Instead, an incomparably terrifying heat swept over from the side and enveloped him within. In an instant, he was already drenched in sweat, as if his entire body was about to ignite.
Immediately after, he heard the ear-piercing screams of the vengeful spirits. That voice seemed to be filled with panic.
"What's going on?"
Gu Ying suddenly opened his eyes, the first thing that entered his eyes was a long spear that was overflowing with light. At the location of the spear, the green light was like a tide, growing and multiplying endlessly, while the tip of the spear was like a red-hot soldering iron. The moment the blazing heat was emitted, it turned into a powerful heat wave that swept out in all directions.
Where the spear pointed, the vengeful spirits retreated, and the chill that had originally filled this small area was swept away.
Gu Ying's gaze quickly swept past the long spear, and immediately saw the owner of the long spear. It was a young man dressed in black, with a slender body and a delicate and pretty face, with a huge bag tied to his back.
"Tang …"
Gu Ying couldn't believe his own eyes. The moment he saw the young man's face clearly, his mouth subconsciously opened. However, just as the sound rushed to his throat, he seemed to have thought of something and forcefully swallowed it back down.
The person who came was actually Tang Huan!
Gu Ying never thought that Tang Huan would actually appear at the most critical moment and save his life from the hands of the vengeful spirit.
"Hu!"
The Dragon and Phoenix Lance in his hands shot out like a ray of light. The slowest vengeful spirit to dodge was pierced by the blazing fiery red spear head, and an even more terrifying heat instantly exploded out.
"Ya —"
The vengeful spirit twisted its body and retreated, letting out a shrill scream.
