Infernal Artist

Rumble, rumble——

The earth was torn apart.

In the passage, all the lights went out, and everything fell into complete collapse.

The monster moved its neck and said:

"Since just now, I have felt strange that your swordsmanship has reached its peak, and you have even mastered high-level moves such as Nian Dao and Xu Zhan, and you have reached the set upper limit-"

"You should have been picked off and eaten long ago."

"But you're still alive."

Without saying a word, Liu Ping made a fist stance and motioned for the other party to come forward.

The monster did not take action directly.

It looked at Liu Ping with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Forget it, after all, you are already dying. I can naturally know your past by reading your soul."

The words fell.

The male and female faces on the back opened their eyes at the same time and chanted in unison: "Insignificant mortal, offer your soul, this is the gift from your sower, come-ah--"

Liu Ping's expression changed.

When the other party started singing, he sensed something bad.

He disappeared from the spot in an instant, appeared directly in front of the monster, and punched the monster in the heart with one fist.

The monster held down his fist.

The two hands were immediately sealed together by the frost.

"It's this trick again!"

The monster shouted, then raised its other hand and struck Liu Ping hard.

Liu Ping was naturally prepared. He used his fists and kicks at the same time, exchanged a few moves with the opponent, spun around, jumped up and kicked across the opponent's face.

Boom!

There was a muffled sound.

The monster was kicked away, smashing countless bricks and stones along the way.

The chanting sound in its mouth did not disappear, and it always maintained a high-pitched and sharp pronunciation.

Liu Ping listened silently, and the sense of danger in his heart gradually disappeared.

strangeness.

It is said that this music technique is almost incomprehensible and the damage to the soul is extremely powerful. Why...

I don't seem to be afraid?

One thought after another emerged in his mind.

The knowledge and experiences of many past lives appeared in his mind one by one, and finally he discovered the reason——

"I see."

The monster pushed aside the broken bricks and walked to stand opposite Liu Ping again.

"No need to try to absorb his soul anymore, you can't do it," the monster said.

The voices of a man and a woman behind its head stopped abruptly.

"Master, from ancient memory inheritance, I know that this move just now is invincible to all living beings." The male voice said in confusion.

"Why can't I absorb his soul?" the female voice asked in confusion.

The monster looked at Liu Ping.

Liu Ping looked at the monster for a moment, then suddenly turned around and ran with all his strength towards the deep cave not far away.

He jumped straight into the deep cave leading to the eternal night and disappeared from the monster's eyes.

Rumble——

The dark void outside the world began to appear all around, which meant that the entire world fell into complete collapse.

If Liu Ping doesn't leave, he will really have to stay here and will not be able to enter the eternal night.

The monster stood silently in the void. With a wave of his hand, a flash of light and shadow suddenly appeared.

The light and shadow seemed to be a scene of human life, but because the speed of the flash was too fast, the specific content could not be seen clearly.

The monster watched with gusto.

For a while.

A female voice sounded quietly: "Master, he has escaped."

"Yes, he is really a smart guy," the monster praised. "Although he hit me, he immediately realized that the boxing technique was too weak and could not hurt me at all, so he ran away immediately."

It stared at the light and shadow and said in an instructive tone: "You can't absorb his soul because his soul is too fragile. It can't even be called a soul. It can only be regarded as a speck of dust at most."

"Your magic is like a flood. It can wash away mountains and rivers and deal with all powerful beings, but it cannot destroy a leaf that is too small and weak - that is his broken soul."

The male voice asked: "Master, such a soul is not worth eating at all. It should be as weak as ants and flying insects. Why is it so powerful that it can even hit you?"

The monster raised his hand and gently wiped the corners of his mouth.

It saw a streak of blood on its fingers.

The light and shadow scene suddenly froze.

I don’t know if it was the monster’s will that played a role, or if there was some kind of hindrance——

Anyway.

The screen has turned into pitch black.

At this moment, the male and female voices also remained silent.

The monster stood in the void, making "clucking, clucking, clucking" sounds from its mouth.

"It's so funny, it actually hurt me."

It looked towards the fixed picture of light and shadow.

"You can actually preserve memories with advanced magic, and you can also transform into nightmares. You must have a big secret - continue!"

The monster spoke.

The light and shadow pictures continue to flow, showing images from a longer time ago.

——That was Liu Ping’s previous life.

"I see, you have died many times and your soul has been weakened every time... I want to see what happened to you in the beginning!"

The monster turned into a bolt of lightning, swept across the void, and swooped down toward the crumbling cave.

A portal quietly appeared in front of it.

It rushed in!

…

In a huge deep cave.

Liu Ping continued to fall at an extremely fast speed.

Lines of burning small characters flashed in front of his eyes quickly:

"Notice!"

"The enemy is using unknown magic to view your past."

"Current progress:"

"The heart of blood flows into the martial arts hall and kills the subtle clones of nightmare creatures."

No wonder I didn’t catch up directly!

It turned out that he was looking into his past.

Liu Ping understood.

The other party has already seen that moment, when he used the emerging power to defeat the monster that came in the last wave of false nightmares.

What will the other party think?

Since the other party can see this, maybe it can also see all the things in your past.

The other party can even directly travel through space and appear in front of him through all his traces.

suddenly.

Several more lines of burning small letters appeared:

"The other party triggered some kind of taboo."

"Your past contains secrets that are not allowed to be touched."

"This spell has ended."

"The other party has activated the Exploration Technique again and continues to check your past."

"This is a secret that is not allowed to be touched."

"This exploration will cause unknown changes, and there is no way to know the details of this sequence."

Liu Ping Yiqi.

What's happening here?

But it was too late to investigate in detail at this time.

——Because there are more important things that must be done.

"Even if the nightmare tide doesn't come, it won't be able to use its full strength - just relying on a set of boxing techniques I created in the past is still not enough..."

Liu Ping murmured, closed his eyes, and began to think about how to deal with it.

Some kind of indescribable fluctuation gradually occurred in his body. This fluctuation surpassed any power and completely surrounded him, as if it was helping him to do something invisible.

"I need more power - more power than they're designed for!"

As soon as this thought came to his mind, the two long knives on his waist rang at the same time.

A raging sword intent emerged from the long sword and merged with Liu Ping's will, erupting in continuous tremors in the void.

It seems like something is about to happen——

Suddenly, all visions disappeared.

Liu Ping felt something in his heart and had to interrupt his "creation". He suddenly opened his eyes and looked somewhere in the void.

In the depths of the void below, a portal suddenly opened——

The weird monster rushed out and roared: "Damn mortal, even if your soul is tasteless and cannot bring any power, I will still eat it!"

The monster rushed towards Liu Ping.

"It's a pity. I wish I had just given you a little more time." Liu Ping said with regret in his heart.

He ducked out of the way of the opponent's attack, but the ice on his hand flew out, freezing him and the opponent together.

——Their hands are connected again.

The two sides rolled in mid-air and fell downwards together. They punched each other with fists and feet from time to time, trying to kill each other.

On the walls surrounding the deep cave, the densely packed bricks and stones continued to collapse downwards, revealing the dark void outside the deep cave.

In this cave together with Purgatory and Eternal Night, along with the destruction of everything, people and monsters kept falling downwards.

Liu Ping was hit seven or eight times.

Fortunately, he had the Prison Suppressing Knife with him, so that the void around him was exploded, revealing black holes one after another, but he was safe and sound.

He looked at the light and shadow behind the monster.

——Scenes from a certain past life of his past flew by above.

At the same time, lines of burning small characters flashed crazily in front of his eyes:

"The other party is checking your past."

"This is a secret that is not allowed to be touched."

"warn!"

"This exploration will cause unknown changes, and there is no way to know the details of this sequence."

Liu Ping didn't have time to take a closer look, he clenched his fist and blasted towards the opponent.

Boom!

Fist to palm.

With this fight, they finally separated, each hitting the wall that had not yet collapsed, dragging out long gray lines, and falling towards the dark depths below.

"Whoops - whoops - damn humans."

The monster's eyes kept wandering, and finally fell on the prison knife on Liu Ping's waist.

What is the origin of this knife?

Why was it suffering for him?

No, its power doesn't stop there.

It looked at the other knife at Liu Ping's waist.

That knife is full of flesh and blood——

It actually has the power of nightmares!

How is this done?

The monster couldn't help but look at the floating light and shadow.

In the light and shadow, another life of Liu Ping ended.

Time goes back again, going upstream, towards a more distant era.

The monster saw Liu Ping from an earlier life.

In that life, he still grew up in the human world and tried his best to fight against nightmares.

The monster's face became solemn and he said seriously:

"I didn't expect you to be quite capable. You have lived so many lives and have been resisting us. No matter what, I will give you a little respect."

I saw it put its hands together and said: "This time I am attacking with all my strength, so everything will be taken away from you, and you will no longer have any resistance. You can only wait for death - and I will not be able to survive because of excessive use of power." Don’t go back to the depths of nightmares to rest until the tide of nightmares comes.”

A strange wave emanated from its hands.

Between the lightning and flint.

A short scream broke out from Liu Ping.

Lilith!

I saw the "Dead Soul Couple" in the card book being knocked out and disappeared into the void without knowing where to go.

The flesh and blood on the Baina knife began to burst.

The prison sword also developed cracks.

Liu Ping understood in an instant.

——This move can be used against all the weapons you carry with you!

"Walk!"

He shouted and threw the two knives fiercely.

really.

As soon as the two swords flew into the void, they no longer suffered any damage, and quickly disappeared into the void.

He continued to fall in the void, and said calmly: "It's a very powerful and strange technique, I have never seen it before."

"Of course, this is 'deprivation'. Even in the weirdness, it is the top level of power."

The monster said, pulling out a long black fork from the void.

"I see, you know that knife has been protecting me from harm." Liu Ping said.

"That's right... There is nothing to protect you from harm now. As long as you are hit by me, your soul and everything will be wiped out."

The monster said proudly.

Liu Ping was silent for a moment.

Not hit?

How can this be?

Now it seems that everything is coming to an end.

"I'll try my best not to get hit by you."

He made a fist stance and flew towards the opponent as soon as he shook his body.

Sudden--

He paused in mid-air, his eyes falling on the light and shadow.

I saw that the light and shadow had reached a certain past life that even he himself did not know.

It was a white light.

There was nothing but white light.

The monster followed his gaze and wondered, "What is this?"

"You initiated this technique." Liu Ping said.

"I've known that you've spent every life resisting us, and now that you're going to die, I don't have to watch anymore."

The monster waved his hand.

The light and shadow did not disappear.

"Huh? What's going on?" The monster waved his hand again in surprise, trying to cancel the spell.

The light and shadow still haven't dispersed.

The monster suddenly looked at Liu Ping and shouted: "You are playing tricks on me, forget it, I will kill you first!"

It straightened up its long fork and stabbed Liu Ping hard in the chest.

However, Liu Ping seemed unaware, still looking at the white light with a confused expression.

There seems to be something hidden in the extremely long memory.

That thing is——

yes--

A voice from the past.

The voice said in my ear:

"I have too much nostalgia."

Liu Ping was stunned.

who is it?

Who is saying such a thing?

"It's over!" the monster roared.

The long fork in its hand was about to pierce Liu Ping's chest.

The tip of the fork bursts out with infinite power, and will immediately tear the person in front of him completely apart——

The next moment.

Thousands of cracks suddenly opened in the void.

Endless black scales flew out, surrounding Liu Ping, and quickly moved towards him.

Almost instantly——

The behemoth armor completely enveloped him.

The armor comes to life.

It stretched out its giant black hand, grabbed the monster, and asked in a majestic voice:

"What are you spying on?"
