Chapter 743
743 The dream demon appears
After killing the two guards who had been contaminated by the demon Qi, Xia Pingan did not stay idle. The huge cubic fortress was right in front of him. He was just within reach. If he did not go all out, he would go all out. He raised the huge sword in his hand and slashed at the pitch-black Wall of the fortress.
The flame King Kong’s strength was extremely great, and it was holding a weapon in its hand. The power of this attack was extraordinary.
BOOM!
Smoke and dust filled the air as a huge shock wave bounced back from the walls of the fortress, scraping off a layer of the ground within a 100-meter radius of Xia Pingan.
He then looked at the giant sword in his hand. Under this kind of head-on attack, the blade of the sword cracked, and the wall of the fortress that was hit by the giant sword was almost unscathed. Only a faint mark was left, but it was still dark and heavy, as hard as gold and iron.
The flame King Kong took a step back and clenched his burning Iron Fist. He gathered all his strength and punched the wall of the Fort that had been left with a sword mark.
With a loud boom, the ground trembled slightly. The shock wave bounced back from the walls of the fortress like a wave hitting a dam, scraping off a layer of the ground. However, the pitch-black walls of the fortress were still fine.
Xia ping ‘an understood that even the flame Guardian couldn’t destroy the outer perimeter of the fortress. They could only look inside.
With a flash of light, the flame Guardian standing in front of the fortress wall disappeared and turned back into the necklace hanging on Xia Pingan’s chest. Xia Pingan was already standing on the ground and walking toward the nearby fortress gate.
The surrounding black demonic Qi swarmed over like piranhas who had smelled blood. Xia Pingan’s face was calm as a flame-like Halo rose from his body to resist all the demonic Qi.
With a single thought from Xia Pingan, a suit of silver radiant armor that looked like China’s radiant armor appeared on Xia Pingan’s body in a brilliant light, protecting his entire body. This was a skill that only high-level spirit herders could master, creating things with their thoughts.
After mastering this skill, everything in the spirit world would have endless possibilities in the eyes of a high-level spirit herder. The entire spirit world would be like a huge dream that could undergo all kinds of changes. As a spirit herder’s level increased, their ability to create things with their thoughts would also gradually increase.
A light flashed in Xia Pingan’s hand, and a weapon that looked like the seven stars sword whip appeared.
The sword-whip in his hand was created by his thoughts. Although it didn’t have the enhancement effect of a soul tool like the seven-star sword-whip, its attack method was the same. It was ever-changing. He didn’t know what dangers were in this cubic fortress. Therefore, it was necessary to have an attack weapon that could be used from both close and far.
The broken body of the fortress guard contaminated by demon Qi that Xia Pingan had just killed was sitting at the foot of the wall of the cube fortress. His head drooped down like a rotten metal sculpture. The huge head of the guard fell to the ground. It was the size of a house, and it smashed a hole in the ground.
When Xia Pingan passed by the head, the head that had fallen to the ground made a cracking sound. A black shadow suddenly emerged from the head and pounced at Xia Pingan fiercely.
Looking at the black shadow that was rushing towards him, Xia ping ‘an’s figure flashed and he reappeared more than ten meters away.
The black shadow continued to pounce at him with red eyes. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws, holding a black short sword in its hand. It was fierce and directly slashed at him.
Xia ping ‘an frowned slightly, but he was not too surprised. The black shadow that had pounced on him was a nightmare corpse. The nightmare corpse in front of him was the same as the other nightmare corpses that Xia ping’ an had seen before. Its body was slightly rotten, and it wore tattered armor. All that was left of it was its killing instinct. This nightmare corpse was probably at least a high-level spirit herder in the past, and it was operating the fortress guards. However, it was later contaminated by demon Qi and had been silent in the control center of the fortress guards. The head of the fortress guard in front of him had been crushed by him, so the nightmare corpse inside had also dissipated. However, the nightmare corpse in front of him could still move.
Xia Pingan flicked the sword whip in his hand as he watched the zombie pounce at him. The sword whip burst into flames and exploded in the air. The moment the zombie charged at him, the tail of the sword whip had already pierced through the Zombie’s head at a speed faster than the speed of sound with a fiery light. The Zombie’s head exploded into pieces.
The entire kun corpse burned up like a torch and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye. Bits of soul power, which were like Starlight, gathered towards Xia ping ‘an and were absorbed by him.
After getting rid of the zombie, Xia Pingan continued to walk toward the main gate of the fortress.
The fortress’s Gate was like a long tunnel. As they walked through the quiet tunnel, Xia Pingan’s footsteps could be heard clearly. It was pitch-black inside the tunnel, and demonic Qi was surging. On both sides of the gate, there were stone statue guards from the fortress.
Most of the stone statue guards had been reduced to rubble and ruins, scattered in the passage. However, there were still a few broken stone statue guards standing on both sides of the passage.
As Xia ping ‘an entered, the eyes of the stone guardians that were still standing lit up and glowed red. The stone guardians turned their necks and stared at Xia ping’ an. Their stone bodies were like rusty machines, and they gradually started to move. They raised the weapons in their hands and clattered.
The stone guardians that Xia ping ‘an had encountered in the past were able to identify the identity of those who entered the fortress and fortress. Those stone guardians would only attack gluttonous insects and corpses, and would not attack those who had the aura of a spirit herder. However, the stone guardians in this fortress seemed to have been severely contaminated by demon Qi, and they could no longer distinguish Xia ping’ an’s aura.
Seeing one of the stone guardians charging at him with a spiked club, Xia Pingan had no choice but to take action.
As soon as the sword whip was used, the stone statue guards scattered into broken stones.
After Xia ping ‘an destroyed a stone statue guard, more and more stone statue guards in the passage swarmed toward Xia ping’ an. Fortunately, these stone guardians had been severely polluted by the demonic Qi, and their combat power had also dropped significantly, making them appear somewhat stiff. If these stone guardians were really like the stone guardians in old MU’s fortress, it would be difficult to deal with them.
Xia Pingan brandished his sword and whip. Like a mad dragon, he was like a burning arrow, charging into the fortress without touching the ground. The sword and whip kept making a Sonic Boom in the passage, crushing the stone guardians that were charging at him.
In just seven or eight minutes, after crushing the last stone guardian, Xia Pingan finally passed through the long and dark passage in the fortress and finally entered the interior of the fortress.
A huge sky was in the fortress. The entire fortress was hollow. Under the sky was a huge Fortress Square. In the middle of the square was a high platform. On the high platform was a huge arched spiritual world Portal. The portal was lustrous and still working.
Apart from the spiritual realm’s Gate, many of the decorations in the fortress, such as the spirit husbandry Hall, were basically the same as elder MU’s fortress. The only difference was that the demonic Qi’s clothes were more worn out.
This is the place!
Seeing the door to the spirit world, Xia Pingan’s spirit was lifted.
The dream demon had entered through this place. As long as he destroyed this portal to the spirit realm, no one would be able to enter Earth’s spirit realm at will in the future. The only portal to the spirit realm on earth would be in his hands, and a hidden danger on earth would be eliminated. If the dream demon didn’t escape and he destroyed this door, it would be equivalent to closing the door to beat a dog. The dream demon wouldn’t be able to escape.
The dream demon might have already escaped, but it was also possible that the dream demon didn’t come here as fast as him, so he was the first to arrive.
A few zombie corpses roared and charged toward Xia ping ‘an from different directions of the fortress Square with red eyes.
To Xia ping ‘an, these corpses were just a piece of cake. There was nothing special about them. In the blink of an eye, they were burned to ashes by Xia ping’ an’s sword whip, which added some soul power to Xia ping ‘an for nothing.
After getting rid of the nightmare corpses, Xia ping ‘an didn’t let his guard down. Instead, he vigilantly observed the surroundings of the square. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal in the surroundings, he came to the center of the square where the arched door to the spirit world was located. He carefully stepped onto the stone steps of the high platform and walked towards the spirit world Portal.
As a high-level spirit herder, he naturally knew how to destroy the portal to the spirit world. It was very simple. The star-like protrusions on the portal to the spirit world were actually the coordinates of the portal and were connected to the spatial passage of the spirit world. Those protruding things were special soul stones. As long as the soul stones were removed from the arch or destroyed, the portal to the spirit world would be scrapped and closed.
When Xia ping ‘an arrived at the high platform at the end of the arched gate, something strange suddenly happened. The arched gate of the spiritual world passage suddenly burst out like a dam that had broken its dam. Surging black water poured out of the arched gate and filled the entire fortress.
The black flood was the condensation of completely solidified demonic Qi and had a terrifying power. Under the impact of the turbulent black flood, the originally strong fortress began to collapse and decay bit by bit under Xia Pingan’s watch.
In addition, many strange insects were writhing in the black flood, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws like monsters in the flood. The surging black water and the monsters in the black water immediately surrounded Xia ping ‘an as they constantly surged, squeezed and devoured everything around Xia ping’ an.
A ring of fierce flames rose from Xia Pingan’s body. The sword whip in his hand spun, and he was barely able to resist the black flood and the monsters in it.
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. a few drops of the rolling black flood water splashed on Xia Pingan’s armor. The armor instantly turned black, and a large part of it was melted by the demonic Qi, turning into nothing.
Xia ping ‘an’s expression had already changed. He had just tested it with the sword whip and the centipede-killing sword. The black flood and the monsters in the flood that looked like gluttons could resist any attack and destroy anything he created with his thoughts.
hahaha, Xia ping ‘an, you’ve finally fallen into my hands. I’ve been waiting for this day for many years. the dream demon walked out from the other side of the spiritual world’s passage and stepped on an even larger monster that was writhing in the flood. It stood on top of the flood and looked down at Xia ping’ an, who was surrounded by the black flood, and let out a burst of proud and wild laughter.
