"No one wants to die. Of course, I want to live."
Demon of Fire answered without hesitation.
"Give me the 1,000-year-old snow lotus, and I will save you."
Ding Ning said indifferently.
"This …"
Demon of Fire's face was cloudy, and he was in a dilemma. Although he could barely hold on now, he could not hold on for long. Besides, Woebegone Monk's weird spells entangled him, making it difficult for him to move. It seemed that he could not get rid of the entanglement unless his body was burned to ashes.
Although humans die for wealth and birds die for food, if he lost his life, what was the use of the elixir?
Judging the situation, it was not difficult for Demon of Fire to make a rational choice, but he was only worried that Ding Ning would go back on his words. "How can I believe that you will save me after you get the 1,000-year-old snow lotus?"
"Take this and inject True Qi to activate it. It will not be afraid of fire!"
Ding Ning threw a small piece of red coral to him to drive away the fire charm.
Demon of Fire activated the charm, and the fire retreated. He was relieved, threw the wooden box to Ding Ning, and asked with a strange expression, "Are you a warlock?"
"What do you mean?"
Ding Ning took the wooden box and asked in confusion.
"Only some warlocks can make charms."
Demon of Fire swept Ding Ning's blindness again.
Ding Ning's heart skipped a beat, but he said calmly, "I am not a warlock. I got it by accident."
Seeing Ding Ning did not admit it, Demon of Fire knew that he did not want to say more, so he did not ask, but he was sure that Ding Ning must be a warlock. After all, he saw Ding Ning take out the red coral and make charms.
He decided to stay away from Ding Ning in the future. Not to mention Ding Ning's terrible combat power, he was afraid of Ding Ning's profession.
Thinking of being plotted against by Long Eyebrow and Woebegone Monk, he showed hatred on his face. "Can you break this tactical matrix? Long Eyebrow set me up, and I will never spare him. "
"I can't break the matrix, but it should not be a big problem to get out of it. Follow me."
Ding Ning put away the wooden box. Seeing that Woebegone Monk had been burned to ashes, he turned and walked out.
Demon of Fire followed him without hesitation. In such a situation, he did not think about the treasure and snow lotus, but just wanted to get even with Long Eyebrow Taoist.
"Here, this is the Life Gate of the Formation. Once you exit, you'll be out of the Formation."
After walking for a long time, Ding Ning pointed to the front and said calmly.
"You're not going out?"
Demon of Fire asked suspiciously.
"I won't go out for now."
Ding Ning said lightly. Without waiting for him to speak, he turned and took a step, disappearing into the raging fire.
Demon of Fire looked confused and wondered what Ding Ning's intention was. Could it be that … he wanted to wait for me and the Long-Eyebrow Taoist to fight and then reap the benefits?
Yes, it must be so. But even so, he could do nothing about it. The effect of the Fire-repelling Talisman had begun to weaken, and he did not dare to continue to stay in this formation. The time of the talisman was calculated by Ding Ning, and it was just enough to take him out of the formation.
"F * ck, all of you are as cunning as ghosts. Do you really think I'm a fool?" Demon of Fire cursed in his heart and made up his mind to leave as soon as he got out of the formation. He would not be stupid enough to risk his life to fight against Long Eyebrow and work for Ding Ning.
Unfortunately, Ding Ning had already expected that even if he did not risk his life to fight against Long Eyebrow, Long Eyebrow would never let him go.
Therefore, after he stepped out of the Eight Waste Flame Formation, he was attacked by Long Eyebrow, which made it impossible for him to leave.
"Long Eyebrow, f * ck your ancestors."
Demon of Fire had been full of anger, and now he was almost hurt by Long Eyebrow. After cursing, he started to fight with Long Eyebrow.
"How did you get out? Where's Woebegone Monk? "
Long Eyebrow swept the horsetail whisk in his hand to Demon of Fire mercilessly and shouted.
"Woebegone Monk is waiting for you underground."
Demon of Fire grinned hideously and slapped Long Eyebrow with a hot Flame Palm.
"You killed Woebegone Monk. I want your life."
Long Eyebrow and Woebegone Monk grew up together. After they became warriors, they traveled in Jianghu together for decades, and their friendship was very deep.
If there was one trusted friend in the world, it was only Woebegone Monk. At this moment, hearing the bad news about Woebegone Monk, Long Eyebrow suddenly felt sad. With red eyes, he fearlessly launched a fierce attack on Demon of Fire.
"Haha, it's ridiculous. Didn't you want to kill me when you schemed against me before?"
Demon of Fire was so angry that he laughed, and a pair of palms wrapped in hot fire fearlessly moved toward Long Eyebrow.
"Boom!" The airwaves surged. Long Eyebrow had been immersed in the tactical matrix all year round, and his combat capability was slightly inferior to Demon of Fire. Moreover, he had to maintain the operation of the tactical matrix, so he was even less of a match for Demon of Fire. He was forced to retreat and was in danger.
"Sky-burning Flame!"
Demon of Fire had the upper hand, and he unhesitatingly performed a powerful killing move.
A hot wave of fire surged, and the horrible high temperature even ignited Long Eyebrow's horsetail whisk. Then it continued to slap Long Eyebrow with the remaining power.
Long Eyebrow rolled awkwardly and narrowly avoided this attack. Instead of retreating, he roared and rushed toward Demon of Fire.
"Does he want to die?" Demon of Fire thought with some doubts, but he suddenly had a strong sense of crisis. In a split second, he quickly retreated without any sign.
With a whooshing sound, Long Eyebrow Taoist's loose hair brushed past his throat like a horsetail whisk, and the fierce wind stimulated his throat and made it ache faintly.
Demon of Fire looked at Long Eyebrow with fear. He didn't expect that the old Taoist's move was so insidious and weird that he could use his long hair as a weapon to launch a sneak attack. If he hadn't instinctively sensed the danger and retreated in time, his throat would have been cut.
With fear in his heart, Demon of Fire was a little restrained in the fight, and he always paid attention to not let Long Eyebrow get close to him. Gradually, Long Eyebrow turned the situation around, and the battle was in a stalemate.
"Thousands of Threads, Take Life and Soul!"
Seeing that Demon of Fire kept a distance from him, Long Eyebrow Taoist shook his head. His white hair suddenly left his head and turned into hair strands shooting toward Demon of Fire like sharp arrows all over the sky.
This was out of Demon of Fire's expectation. Caught off guard, he had no way to dodge, so he could only brace himself to protect his vital parts with his palms and rush toward Long Eyebrow. He wanted to kill Long Eyebrow with his palm even if he was injured.
Long Eyebrow showed a weird smile and murmured something in a low voice. Unexpectedly, he didn't dodge but stood still where he was.
Demon of Fire had a strong uneasiness in his heart, but at this moment, the arrow on the bowstring had to be shot, and there was no room for retreat. He could only hope that this desperate palm would work.
Strands of white hair pierced into his body like steel needles. Although he had protected his vital parts, the pain of tens of thousands of hair piercing into his body still made him involuntarily roar, and his movements also became sluggish.
But then he was shocked to find that his strength kept flowing away along the white hair and continuously entered Long Eyebrow's body.
The strong sense of weakness made him powerless, and his movements became slower and slower. When this palm hit Long Eyebrow with all his strength, it was already soft and powerless.
Long Eyebrow laughed wildly and said, "Go to hell!"
His white palm suddenly became as black as ink and fiercely pierced into Demon of Fire's chest like an eagle's claw. When he pulled it out, his hand was still holding his beating heart.
Demon of Fire covered the bloody hole in his chest and looked at Long Eyebrow with nine ring scars on his bald head in disbelief. Like a bloodthirsty demon, Long Eyebrow stuffed Demon of Fire's heart into his mouth and chewed it. He looked intoxicated, as if it was the most delicious food in the world.
"It turns out that you … you are … the Heart-eating Demon …"
Demon of Fire showed a look of understanding and fell to the ground with his head facing the sky. His eyes gradually dimmed and turned into a dead gray, full of unwillingness and resentment.
More than 30 years ago, there was an old monk who was stationed in the Sutras Pavilion of the Tongtian Temple, the first Buddhist sect in the ancient martial world, who was near the end of his life, but he was unwilling to die. No one knew where he learned the evil method of prolonging his life by eating hearts, and he knocked out all the eminent monks of the Tongtian Temple with knockout drugs.
All 786 monks in the temple had their hearts dug out and died. The name of Tongtian Temple had been erased overnight. Their tragic state caused both men and gods to be enraged. All the major powers in the ancient martial arts world had issued a kill order and surrounded and intercepted them.
Unexpectedly, although the old monk's cultivation was not high, he had been stationed in the Sutras Pavilion and read widely all the time, and he had learned a superb disguise skill. He changed his appearance and mixed into the crowd of people chasing him. After killing more than 30 people easily, he escaped again. All the people he killed were killed by digging out their hearts, and he was called the Heart-eating Demon in Jianghu.
After that, the old monk disappeared for more than thirty years. No one could find any trace of him, and the order to kill him became a joke.
Unexpectedly, he turned into Long Eyebrow Taoist and found Woebegone Monk as his partner. He became famous in Jianghu. Although he had a bad record, he did not show his crazy side, so no one associated him with the Heart-eating Demon.
Demon of Fire saw through his identity at the last moment of his life, but unfortunately, he could not tell this news to anyone.
"Woebegone Monk, it's all my fault. If I insisted on not letting you enter the matrix, you would not have died. Now, I have avenged you, and you can go in peace."
Facing the matrix, Long Eyebrow cried bitterly. His tears mixed with the blood at the corners of his mouth, and he looked as ferocious as a ghost.
At that time, the entire ancient martial world wanted to kill him. Even though he had a magical disguise skill, he was almost caught several times.
When he had no way to escape and his life was hanging by a thread, his childhood friend Woebegone Monk saved him at the risk of losing his reputation. From then on, they changed their names and wandered in Jianghu.
Although he knew that Woebegone Monk saved him because he was about to die and wanted to get the method to prolong his life by eating hearts, he was still grateful to him and had never thought of harming him.
After all, he was a monster and a demon that the whole world could not tolerate. He ate people's hearts to prolong his life, not as a hobby, so he was actually very afraid and lonely, and needed a trustworthy person to accompany him.
Woebegone Monk was not only his childhood friend, but also the best cover for his identity. The most important thing was that both of them prolong their lives by eating people's hearts. They shared the same fate and were in the same boat, so they did not need to worry about being betrayed by each other.
So, Woebegone Monk's death made him beat his chest and stamp his feet, and he was in so much pain that he wanted to die. But whether it was because of their friendship, or because he lost a like-minded "eating friend", he did not know.
"You killed people to rob their treasures, harmed your allies, and ate people's hearts. You are so evil that you are insane and worse than a beast. I don't feel guilty at all for killing a demon like you!"
Just as Long Eyebrow wore his white hair, wiped his tears, and was about to open the matrix to pick up the treasure, Ding Ning's voice full of hatred came.
"You are not dead? How is it possible? "
Long Eyebrow watched Ding Ning walk out of the matrix unscathed as if he was taking a stroll, and his eyes widened in shock.
"It's just a matrix. How can it hurt me!"
Ding Ning did not hide his monstrous killing intent. Before he finished his words, he punched Long Eyebrow like a ghost. Such an insane heart-eating demon was not worthy of pity.
Long Eyebrow's face changed greatly. Although Ding Ning's spirit was weak and his combat capability was not at its peak, his physical strength was still at its peak. This punch had a horrible sonic boom, so he did not dare to underestimate his enemy.
