Eighth Crown

The night passed quickly, and the sun soon emerged from the sky again.

The evil ghosts who came out to hunt have returned to their respective caves or tree holes long before the sun came out.

The surviving candidate swordsmen were scattered all over the mountain, barely making it through the first night of horror. After seeing the familiar sun rise, they completely relaxed. All squeezed dry.

Among them, most of them came to participate in the final selection after training with the cultivator for two or three years. There are not many people who have had fighting experience with ghosts. Under the circumstance, everyone must fight ten percent all night to deal with it, otherwise it will be death if they are not careful.

In contrast, my wife, Shanyi, is the most relaxed of these people.

That night, a total of three evil spirits attacked them.

Although he was startled every time, every time the evil ghost appeared, he was instantly killed by Liu Xia with absolute strength.

The strength of these ghosts is too weak, so weak that they cannot even create a little accident.

And during this night, Liu Xia's understanding of [Breath of Thunder] and [Thunderbolt Flash] became more and more profound. After killing the evil ghost that came out for the third time, he didn't want to ask my wife Shanyi any questions. .

The principle of the breathing method itself is not difficult, the difficult thing is to train more, so that the breathing method can be used more and more skillfully, and the same is true for swordsmanship.

"You just go into this tree hole, take a rest during the day, and continue to hunt evil ghosts at night."

Liu Xia took Shanyi back to the tree hole where the first evil ghost came out, and said indifferently to Shanyi: "I have something to do, I will also take the sun wheel knife first, and after the matter is done, I will Will come back to rest together."

"If you are afraid, you can sprinkle the petals of wisteria flowers at the entrance of the hole."

Not sleeping all night really made Shanyi very tired. Although Liu Xia killed all the evil ghosts that came out, he didn't exert any strength, and he didn't feel tired at all, but he was trembling all night and couldn't bear it mentally.

"I see."

Shanyi nodded obediently and climbed into the tree hole.

He had no plans to ask Liu Xia what he was going to do. After two days of getting along, he basically confirmed that Liu Xia is the type of lone ranger who can solve everything by himself, and basically does not try to rely on others. .

Although you can act with him, don't try to ask his purpose, and don't even think about meddling in his affairs.

Anyway, when the sun came out, no ghost dared to go out, and the safety was guaranteed. In the worst case, he sprinkled wisteria flowers at the entrance of the cave, and it made no difference whether Liu Xia was with him or not.

After Shanyi entered the tree hole to sleep, Liu Xia turned and left.

With a slight force on his feet, he jumped up from the ground and easily jumped onto the branches of the towering giant tree, and then quickly moved away from the branches with far more agility than ordinary people.

...

"Damn! If this goes on, I will die sooner or later!"

In the mountain forest, a young man wearing a gray coat walked through the forest quickly, clenching his teeth tightly, his right hand covering the **** wound on his left arm, and there were even tears in his eyes.

Last night, although he had been carefully avoiding the evil spirits, unfortunately, he was found and eyed by a ghost. In a panic, he reluctantly killed the evil spirits at the expense of an arm injury.

Now he must hurry to find a place to hide and heal the wound before the sun goes down.

Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to make it through tonight.

"Shh-"

Suddenly, before he came back to his senses, a figure descended from the sky in front of him and landed in front of him.

"Human...?! What are you trying to do in front of me at this time!"

The boy in the gray coat still hadn't recovered from the tensed nerves from last night, and he was a little terrified.

Liu Xia stood up and looked at the other party without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes.

"Hand over the sun blade in your hand."

A completely unbearable request came out of his mouth.

"What a joke!"

The young man in the gray coat suddenly became excited, and his attitude suddenly became extremely irritable, "If I give you my sun-knife, I will definitely die tonight!"

In this mountain forest where man-eating ghosts are hiding everywhere, the sun blade in his hand is the only thing that can give him a little peace of mind and make him feel hopeful to get through this difficult time. the only reliance.

At such a moment, anyone who comes, don't ask him to hand over his sun blade.

"Wouldn't that be nice?"

Liu Xia's face was not shaken or pity in the slightest, and a ruthless arc appeared on the tightly pursed lips, "At least you can live until the night."

"If you don't pay, you'll have to die at my hands now."

Liu Xia raised the sun blade hanging on his waist, put his right hand on the handle of the knife, leaned forward, leaned his center of gravity on his feet, and looked like he was ready to draw the knife at any time.

"You bastard... Are you actually going to have an infighting among your own people!"

The young man in the gray coat gritted his teeth fiercely, with a strong look of disbelief on his face, and then his eyes showed a look of cruelty. After putting down his **** left arm, he pulled out the sun blade around his waist.

"Come and try if you dare!"

In the case that his life has not been guaranteed, he has completely lost the patience to reason with the other party, and the whole person seems very irritable.

"The green sun blade, the user of the breath of the wind? Then try it out, how many sword skills have you mastered?"

Liu Xia's left thumb gently pushed the blade, and the next moment, his right hand suddenly pulled out the sun blade, drew a sharp trajectory in mid-air, and swung it towards the opponent's sun blade.

"Chong!"

In this forest, a high-pitched sound like a metal crash soon sounded.

"Damn, what the **** is this guy thinking?"

Liu Xia's sword-wielding attack was extremely fierce, and the boy in the gray coat could only be tired of parrying for a while, but what he couldn't understand was that each of the opponent's swords was just to say hello to his sun-knife, and between swinging the sword It seems that he has a hand, and he did not defeat him at the first time, and robbed him of the sun blade.

"Never mind! Breath of the Wind, Three Types, Seiran Fengshu!"

Three consecutive wind-blade-like small sword qi were stimulated along with the boy's sword swing, and radiated around him with himself as the center. It has both offensive and defensive functions.

Liu Xia's eyes narrowed slightly, and while seeing all the movements of the boy in the gray coat in his eyes, he avoided it as if he was inferior.

"Good chance! The fifth type, the cold autumn winds down the mountain!"

The boy's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had seized the opportunity. He hurriedly raised the knife in his hand and slashed it down, causing a faint wind blade to emerge from the whole body.

Liu Xia raised his sword to block this move, and continued to swing the sword towards the opponent.

At the same time, his eyes were also fixed on each other, and he recorded all the other's movements one by one.
