Taiqing Sword

Chapter 29, The Blood-sucking Maniac Outside the Capital
"Jinghong, Xin'er, the old man went back. After this incident, you must remember that if you are not innate, don't make enemies easily, otherwise you may die. The old man can protect you for a while, but cannot protect you forever. Before leaving, Leng Lingfeng said to Shangguan Jinghong and Ning Ningxin earnestly.

Shangguan Jinghong looked serious: "Grandpa, don't worry, Jinghong will remember it, and he will never act recklessly in the future. Grandpa didn't come in time this time, I'm afraid I will regret it." After finishing speaking, he looked at Ning Ningxin.

Leng Lingfeng nodded: "Okay, let's leave it as it is this time. The sects in the Jianghu are not so simple, especially in Kunlun Mountain. It is rumored that the real Chi Yan has not passed away. If he is really alive, I'm afraid it has already broken through the innate realm."

Shangguan Jinghong turned pale with shock when he heard the words: "Grandpa, is there really someone in this world who can live for hundreds of years?"

Leng Lingfeng smiled: "Jinghong, there are three things in this world that are endless. One is life, the other is human potential, and the third is the realm of martial arts. It is said that the real realm starts from Xiantian, the realm before Xiantian can become mortal realm, and the realm above Xiantian is heaven realm, since he is heaven realm, his lifespan is immeasurable. Innate, but Daoist Chi Yan once passed on a divine pill to him, and it is because of this that he can live until now, and he can also stand at the top of the rivers and lakes."

Shangguan Jinghong nodded thoughtfully: "Grandpa, what state are you in now?"

Leng Lingfeng glanced at Shangguan Jinghong: "In the Jianghu, it is a taboo to randomly inquire about other people's martial arts realm. This old man is now innately middle-ranked. Unfortunately, it may be difficult to break through the upper-rank in his lifetime."

"Jinghong believes in grandpa, and one day he will break through to the top rank."

"Perhaps, when we reach the Heavenly Realm, we will be able to sneak a glimpse of some secrets. I already feel that the limit is approaching. If I can break the shackles, I may be able to live for a few more years, otherwise..."

Ning Ningxin was very worried when she heard it: "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense."

"Hehe, well, it's time for the old man to go back to retreat, after all, I have to give it a try."

"Grandpa, take care, Ningxin and I will definitely visit your old man when we have time."

After parting with Leng Lingfeng, Ning Ning's heart was pounding: "Jinghong, do you think what Grandpa said is true?"

Shangguan Jinghong knew that Ning Xin was talking about the limit, and immediately comforted him: "Don't worry about Ning Xin, I think he will break through that level." He clenched his fists and swore secretly that I would also break through That level.

Ning Ningxin felt relieved: "Well, I will definitely, Jinghong, where are we going?"

Shangguan Jinghong looked towards the northern sky, and slowly uttered two words: "The capital."

Ning Ningxin was a little surprised: "What are we going to do in the capital?"

"Ningxin, what do you think is the place with the most treasures in the world?"

Ning Ningxin tilted her head and thought for a while, then shook her head randomly: "I don't know."

Shangguan Jinghong said: "The imperial palace, where all the treasures of the world are located. First, I want to see if there is any method or treasure that can make me break through my innate as soon as possible. Second, it may help grandpa find something to continue his life. Let's go." , let’s go to King Jin first.”

The two of them were not in a hurry, they traveled for seven days, and they were about to reach the capital. They were just about to find a place to rest for a while, when they were suddenly stopped by a team of officials: "Stop, where are you from? very?"

Shangguan Jinghong said with a smile: "This official messenger brother, the villain and his wife came from Lin'an and are about to go to the capital for a visit."

The official circled around the two of them a few times: "Well, let's go quickly, don't stop here, there have been murderers haunting here recently, sucking human blood, and dozens of people have been killed."

Shangguan Jinghong was taken aback when he heard the words, he couldn't be a vampire, he shook his head to get rid of this unrealistic idea, but he was still very curious, and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother official, for reminding us, let's go now, brother official. Be careful."

Shangguan Jinghong dragged Ning Xin for a while, then stopped suddenly, Ning Ning Xin asked puzzledly: "Jinghong, why didn't you leave?"

Shangguan Jinghong said: "Vampire madman, aren't you curious?"

Ning Ningxin was speechless when he heard that: "You, you are so playful, that's okay, I also want to see what the vampire monster looks like."

As they said that, the two quietly followed the team of officers, and walked to a small valley, when they suddenly saw the officer pulling something on the ground, and when they fixed their eyes, it turned out to be a six or seven-year-old girl with dry skin, as if her flesh and blood had been sucked by something It's clean, Shangguan Jinghong doesn't want someone to harm a child the most, he suddenly got angry from his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "Ning Xin, I was just curious at first, but now it seems that we are in the right place, this blood-sucking maniac doesn't even let such a young child go!" However, if I meet him, he will be torn to pieces."

The two were communicating in low voices, when they suddenly heard a scream from the officer. Looking back, they saw that one of the officer's legs was locked by a long black thread, and he was dragged into the valley for a long time. At that time, Shangguan Jinghong drew out his sword, wanting to cut off the black silk, but he didn't want to use the sword, the black silk was intact, he didn't care about being surprised, he summoned his inner strength, and cut off the black silk with a stab, the officer picked up a piece Life.

The panic-stricken officer saw that they were the two people he had met just now, and gasped, he said, "Thank you, thank you, I didn't expect you to be masters of the rivers and lakes, and you came here to catch the blood-sucking maniac with the notice?"

Shangguan Jinghong didn't understand, so: "What is the list? We just want to take a look because we are curious that there are blood-sucking monsters in this world."

"Oh, that's right, but anyway, thank you just now."

Shangguan Jinghong just nodded and stopped answering. He cautiously probed into the small valley, and was stopped by the officer after he walked a few steps: "Hero, don't go in. There are hundreds of people who have received the bulletin to kill the blood-sucking maniac." It's all about going and never returning, so don't take risks."

Shangguan smiled in surprise: "It's okay, I want to see what this blood-sucking maniac looks like." Said and Ning Ningxin, they entered the small valley in a flash.

Although this valley is small, there are quite a few caves. It looks eerie, and the surrounding area does not seem to be inhabited. Could it be that this blood-sucking maniac is really not human?It doesn't matter, find a hole to go in and check it out, it doesn't matter once you get to the hole, a disgusting bloody smell rushes over your face, even Shangguan Jinghong and Ning Ningxin can't help frowning after experiencing countless killings.

Shangguan Jinghong turned his head and said to Ning Ningxin: "Be careful." He plunged into the hole.

There are no decorations in the cave, there is only a garden lake. Looking closer, it turned out to be a lake of blood. The bloody smell came from this lake. Condensed heart exclaimed: "Blood pool!"

Shangguan Jinghong immediately asked: "What blood pool, what is it for?"

Ning Ningxin shook her head and said, "It's full of human blood, and I don't know what it's for."

Shangguan Jinghong became even more angry when he heard the words: "How many people have to be killed to build such a big blood pool. If I see that blood-sucking madman, I will smash his body into thousands of pieces."

"Jinghong, I just remembered that there was a record in the ancient annals that the function of the blood pool is firstly to heal injuries, and the second is to practice qigong. If this blood pool is used by someone to heal injuries, it is better to say that if it is for qigong, it is so big. The blood pool, this person's martial arts is definitely not weak." Ning Ning Xin hurriedly added to Shangguan Jinghong.

Shangguan Jinghong was frightened and angry at this moment: "No matter what his purpose is, I will definitely kill him."

"Tsk tsk tsk~~ Nearly a hundred people said they wanted to kill me, but in the end, they were all in the pool of blood and became my fertilizer, jie jie jie~~" Accompanied by a gloomy laugh, one person flashed out, only The person who came was dressed in a black robe, his face could not be seen, only his blood red eyes were exposed, and his whole body exuded a bloody aura.

When Shangguan Jinghong heard what this person said, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "So, you built this blood pool, so you also killed this person."

The black-robed man let out a sinister laugh again: "Jie Jie Jie~~ That's right, it's a pity that the blood of these people is impure. It would be better if there were more children's blood."

"Then I won't worry about killing the wrong person!"

As soon as the words fell, the long sword came out accompanied by a green awn, the black-robed man smiled sinisterly, and grabbed the long sword in Shangguan Jinghong's hand with his withered hands, suddenly a puff of green smoke with a burnt breath came out, and the black-robed man immediately Withdrawing his hand: "It's not bad, it's much better than those trash in front."

"Should die." Shangguan Jinghong yelled and drew out the sword again, the man in black didn't dodge, and let Shangguan Jinghong stab the sword into his body, Shangguan Jinghong hit the man in black so easily, his heart also Some underestimated the enemy, not wanting that the long sword just pierced, and suddenly a suction force attracted Shangguan Jinghong, and the blade slowly turned blood red. Shangguan Jinghong regretted his carelessness at this time, but it was too late to withdraw the sword, The man in black smiled sinisterly, and the blood-red light gradually climbed onto Shangguan Jinghong's arm: "Jie Jie~~ Your blood essence should be much stronger than those trash."

Ning Ning Xin looked anxiously: "Jing Hong." With an exclamation, he slapped the black-robed man with a palm, and a gleam of light flashed in the black-robed man's eyes. , go back quickly."

Condensed heart could hear Shangguan Jinghong's exclamation, it was too late to withdraw his palm at this time, Shangguan Jinghong was so anxious that he used Taiji Xuantian Kungfu indiscriminately: "If you want to suck my blood essence, I will suck your internal energy dry." Pao suddenly felt that his internal energy was draining rapidly, he forced Ning Xin back with his palm, and dealt with Shangguan Jinghong with all his strength, the two were not like brothers, and for a while, no one could do anything to the other, Shangguan Jinghong was fine, but the man in black had to be on the sidelines to wait for an opportunity Condensed heart moved, and in desperation, he cut off an arm, burst out a cloud of blood mist, and retreated quickly, Shangguan Jinghong had no time to recuperate, was blocked by the blood mist, and immediately got a palm from the man in black, and his body collapsed. Fei, fell directly into the blood pool, but Shangguan Jinghong hadn't stopped yet, the blood in the blood pool poured into Shangguan Jinghong's physical strength, Shangguan Jinghong felt as if his whole body was about to split open, he kept struggling in the blood pool, condensed Heartbroken, he kept shouting: "Jinghong, how are you, Jinghong..."

At first, Shangguan Jinghong could still hear Ning Ningxin's cry, but gradually he lost all six senses. It was just a belief in his heart that he wanted to live, and he sat cross-legged in the blood pool forcibly. After more than an hour, all the blood in the blood pool was wiped out by Shangguan. Jinghong sucked it dry, Ning Ningxin hurriedly jumped down to the pool of blood, looking at Shangguan Jinghong who was sitting cross-legged in the pool, his skin was cracked, it was extremely terrifying, Ning Ningxin felt like a knife was twisted, he couldn't feel Shangguan Jinghong's aura at all, so he called out He said twice: "Jinghong...you talk." There was no movement for a long time, and he stretched out his fingers to detect Shangguan Jinghong's breath, but he was already out of breath, and Ning Ningxin fell into the pool of blood like a lost soul, slowly Pulling the Taixuan sword that fell aside: "Jinghong is dead, what is the meaning of my life?" Just when he was about to ask himself to die for love, suddenly Shangguan Jinghong's epidermis began to fall off, and the new skin was crystal clear. After burning incense, all the dead skin on Shangguan Jinghong's body fell off, and he sat naked in the middle of the pool of blood, Ning Ningxin blushed, then threw out his messy thoughts, remained motionless, and stared at Shangguan Jinghong, But Shangguan Jinghong is already in a coma at this time, and has no awareness of the current situation. Only the Taiji Xuantian Kungfu is running on its own. Shangguan Jinghong's body, but the color of the sun and the moon is very frightening, it is blood red, the endless internal energy in the body is like a vast ocean, and the blood red blood red reflected by the brilliance of the sun and moon is like a pool of blood. After a few hours, Shangguan Jinghong opened his eyes suddenly, the eyeballs were as blood red as those of the man in black robe just now, and Ning Ningxin, who was concentrating on it, was taken aback: "Jinghong, are you alright?"

Hearing this life, Shangguan Jinghong's eyes immediately recovered, and he looked at Ning Ningxin beside him: "What about the man in black?"

"The man in black has already run away."

Shangguan Jinghong took a careful look at Ning Xin: "Ning Xin, did you repel him?"

Ning Ningxin's face was covered with red clouds, and she didn't dare to look at Shangguan Jinghong, which made Shangguan Jinghong even more impatient, and grabbed Ning Xin: "Ning Xin, are you injured?"

Ning Ningxin took a look at Shangguan Jinghong, and hurriedly turned her head away: "You, you put on your clothes first."

Only then did Shangguan Jinghong realize that he was naked, and he gave Ning Xin an awkward look, and quickly took out a set of clothes from his luggage and put them on: "Ning Xin, what happened? How can I..."

Condensed heart, Hongxia is still there: "Just now you fought with the man in black, and the man in black will hit the blood pool. For some reason, you sucked up the blood pool, and it became like this."

Shangguan Jinghong listened to Ning Ningxin's story, and suddenly felt a cold sweat running down his back. Fortunately, nothing happened. Shangguan Jinghong didn't know it was, but this time he got a blessing in disguise. The sect's resident has practiced magic skills all the year round, and the place is extremely evil. The blood pool that the black-robed man spent more than ten years building here has poured countless efforts into it. He didn't want to be sucked away by Shangguan Jinghong. Shangguan Jinghong was supposed to be possessed by demons, and he didn't want to be neutralized by the yin and yang energy in his body, so he unknowingly broke through half a step of Xiantian high-grade, and was only one chance away from being able to log into Xiantian and become a master of heaven.
