Seeking Immortality

Chapter 103. Fate and Choice (IX).

The battle sounds complicated, but it only took a few dozen breaths from the time both sides started to fight to now. The latest chapters are available for reading\u003e

Xu Qingfan did not expect that in just a few dozen breaths, the "disintegration **" had already begun to backfire on him, and the backlash was so fierce.

After Xu Qingfan was slapped away by the black wings of the demon, he looked at the chasing demon and just wanted to fight back, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his body. In the severe pain, Xu Qingfan was horrified to find that his meridians, internal organs, Dantian, and even his flesh and bones had slowly begun to break and decompose. This was a sign of collapse! !

And as time went on, the speed of decomposition and fragmentation was getting faster and faster.

The body collapsed! ! Turned into nothingness and dissipated between heaven and earth! !

Thinking of such consequences, Xu Qingfan felt a chill in his heart.

Xu Qingfan didn't know that the "disintegration skill" was really that fast, but before he used the disintegration skill, he had already exhausted all his energy, and the skill he was reversing was the "Life and Death Skill", so the backlash was even more fierce.

In this moment of distraction, the demon had already flashed in front of Xu Qingfan, and his claws grabbed Xu Qingfan's chest fiercely, with fierce momentum and unstoppable. At the critical moment, Xu Qingfan finally reacted and almost blocked his chest with the "Against the Sky Sword". However, the demon's tail's attack power was even more fierce, turning into a black shadow and pulling towards Xu Qingfan, but Xu Qingfan used the "Five Spirits Bell" to block the sword's tail on its way.

However, as Xu Qingfan gradually became familiar with the demon's methods, the demon seemed to be familiar with Xu Qingfan's various magical methods. After integrating a large number of demon beasts, it also had the same fighting instincts as the demon beasts. The seemingly unstoppable black shadow actually made a circle in a flash before intersecting with the "Five Spirits Bell" and whipped Xu Qingfan from another direction.

Xu Qingfan didn't expect that the demon still had some strength left at this time, and was caught off guard. Although he tried his best to dodge, he was still whipped on his left arm by the demon's sword tail. Under the fierce force, a crisp fracture sounded, and the sword tail was retracted, and under the densely packed barbs on the sword tail, a large handful of flesh and blood was **ed.

Xu Qingfan took a deep breath, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, he bit his tongue, and spit a mouthful of blood on the "Against the Sky Sword" in his hand. Suddenly, the power of the "Against the Sky Sword" increased greatly, and the monstrous demonic energy spread from the "Against the Sky Sword". The demon with his claws on the "Against the Sky Sword" felt an evil and gloomy energy appearing from the "Against the Sky Sword" and invading his body through its arms. Wherever it went, the eyeballs on the arms burst one after another, and the muscles tangled together. They began to shrink continuously, violently squeezing the bones in the arms.

The demon screamed. Instinctively sent away the "Against the Sky Sword". Escaped dozens of feet away. He began to do his best to eliminate the demonic energy that invaded his body. Fortunately, the strange and domineering energy in his body was not inferior to the demonic energy. And the "Against the Sky Sword" had not yet fully grown. The demonic energy contained in it was not its opponent. The demon's body shook. The two arms suddenly turned into blood mist and exploded. Before the demonic energy could penetrate its chest, it had already dissipated between heaven and earth as the demon's arms exploded.

However, the demon's self-healing ability was indeed too amazing. Before the blood mist dissipated, its two arms, which were left with only white bones, had already recovered more than half.

But Xu Qingfan was relentless. He waved the "Heaven-Defying Sword" in his hand. Suddenly, black demonic energy overflowed in front of him, transforming into four huge black demon dragons, roaring and rushing towards the demon.

During this period, Xu Qingfan finally had a moment of free time. He forced himself to calm down. He roughly estimated his physical condition, but he was even more chilled. If the current situation continued, after three incense sticks of time, his body would completely collapse. And if he did not stop performing the "Disintegration Skill" within a cup of tea, then even if he defeated the demon, Xu Qingfan would be dead. There was no way to save the situation.

The battle must be resolved within a cup of tea! !

Or so. Xiao Hei must subdue those "dark crows" within a cup of tea to fight the demons on his behalf.

While Xu Qingfan was checking his body and thinking secretly. One fifth of the time of a cup of tea had passed!!

At this moment, there was a roar, but the demon once again displayed the magical power of "Five Elements Explosion". Under that great power, the four demon dragons that were fighting with it were instantly destroyed.

Then, the demon roared and rushed towards Xu Qingfan again.

Xu Qingfan sighed and raised his sword to meet him. The strength of the two sides was too different. Even if Xu Qingfan used the "disintegration skill" and his strength increased several times, he was still at a disadvantage.

After all, the demon had the strength of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator!!

What's more, as time went by, the effect of the "disintegration skill" was slowly weakening. Xu Qingfan seemed to be able to clearly sense that his strength was weakening every moment.

While Xu Qingfan was fighting the demons, Xiao Hei's situation of subduing the "Dark Crows" had reached a critical moment.

Although he didn't know why Xu Qingfan's strength had suddenly recovered and increased greatly, Xiao Hei knew that it would not be a good thing for Xu Qingfan. If he showed off his power for a while, it would probably cause endless troubles.

After Xu Qingfan led the demon away, the "Dark Crows" all breathed a sigh of relief and refocused their attention on Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei, in his anxiety, could not wait to spread his aura and pressure to the extreme, and pressed the "Dark Crows" in the sky.

And the twenty or thirty high-level "Dark Crows" of the Earth Rank did not show weakness, and united to exert pressure to confront Xiao Hei.

Time passed bit by bit. In terms of strength, the twenty or thirty high-level "Dark Crows" of the Earth Rank were stronger when they joined forces, but Xiao Hei was more kingly. In the end, the "Dark Crows" of the human and low-level Earth Rank, about two thousand in number, all completely surrendered to Xiao Hei, while the twenty or thirty high-level Earth Rank "Dark Crows" remained unmoved. The number of about two or three hundred intermediate Earth Rank "Dark Crows" was hesitant in the struggle between the two sides.

More than two thousand "Dark Crows" surrendered in one breath. If it were normal times, Xiao Hei would probably be proud in front of Xu Qingfan for a long time, but now it is not possible. Although these "Dark Crows" are huge in number, they are all weak, and the strongest is only equivalent to a human cultivator in the Void Dan stage. For the war between Xu Qingfan and the demons, their only role is to be cannon fodder.

And what Xiao Hei really wants - those twenty or thirty high-level "Dark Crows" of the Earth Rank, still have no signs of surrendering, but only by getting their surrender and joining forces with them can they compete with the demons.

Xiao Hei was anxious in his heart. When he learned about Xu Qingfan's current situation through his mind, he wanted to take those cannon fodder "Dark Crows" to support Xu Qingfan immediately. In fact, he was ready to do so. But he was stopped immediately after Xu Qingfan noticed it.

Xiao Hei looked at this scene, sensing that Xu Qingfan had already lost the battle in the distance, but he finally made up his mind. Flying to the ground, he opened the green jade box that Xu Qingfan had left on the ground before he fought the demon. Suddenly, a vast and endless pure death energy spread in the sky.

The jade box contained a part of the "Purgatory Staff", the green skull full of death energy! !

The reason why Xiao Hei didn't take out the skull before was because Xu Qingfan had settled it before. Don't take out the skull unless it is absolutely necessary, because according to Xu Qingfan's guess, the reason why the demon is so powerful is because there is the body of the "Purgatory Staff" in its body. If it is allowed to reveal another part of the "Purgatory Staff", no one knows what the demon will do. At this time, the demon is already so powerful. Once it is allowed to take away the staff head, its strength will increase even more terrifyingly.

But things have come to this point. In order to help Xu Qingfan as soon as possible, Xiao Hei still let the skull reappear in the world! !

Sensing the vast and pure death energy, countless "Dark Crows" in the world trembled, not because of fear, but because of excitement! !

No one knows how hard it will be for the "Dark Crows" to evolve. Death energy is one of the most ethereal and mysterious energies in the world. If the "Dark Crows" want to evolve, they must absorb a lot of death energy, but how much death energy is there in the world? How many creatures died in Xisha? How many "Dark Crows" are there?

This is exactly the reason. The "Dark Crows" want to evolve. The difficulty is not less than that of the Spirit Fox Clan. How can they not be excited when they suddenly see so much death energy at this moment?

But Xiao Hei grabbed the skull with his claws. Slowly flew into the air, looked at the "Dark Crows" in the world proudly, and suddenly controlled the death energy in the skull and spread it to the first few human-level "Dark Crows" who surrendered to it.

The vast black death energy quickly enveloped the four or five dark crows. In the black death energy, the dark crows screamed excitedly. After a moment, the screams gradually subsided. After another moment, the black mist dissipated, and four or five black cocoons appeared in front of the "dark crows"! !

The "dark crows" knew that being entangled in black silk cocoons was a precursor to the evolution of the "dark crows". When the "dark crows" broke out of the cocoons, their strength would increase significantly. Judging from the fluctuations of the death energy in the black cocoons, these "dark crows" might evolve two levels in a row after breaking out of the cocoons.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that the original rank of these "dark crows" was too low. After all, they were the first to surrender to Xiao Hei because they could not withstand the pressure. Only a small amount of death energy was enough for them to evolve, and these few lucky ones with very weak strength became Xiao Hei's precious horse bones.

Seeing all this, greed flashed in the eyes of every "Dark Crow", and they finally understood why Xiao Hei had evolved to such a level in just two hundred years.

However, Xiao Hei's tyrannical strength and the strong and pure kingly style on his body made these "Dark Crows" dare not act rashly. After all, Xiao Hei's strength was there. Even if he was lucky enough to grab the skull, he had to guard against other "Dark Crows" snatching it.

Xiao Hei did not care at all that his performance almost caused thousands of "Dark Crows" to scramble frantically. He just exuded his aura again and forced the two or three hundred earth-level intermediate "Dark Crows" to go, while constantly "quack" like a crow, to the effect that once you surrender to me, not only will you return to the orthodoxy, I will also share this treasure with you, etc.

Finally, under coercion and inducement, the two or three hundred mid-level Earth-rank Dark Crows chose to submit to Xiao Hei, and like the other Dark Crows, they landed on the ground, with their wings flat on the ground and their heads lowered to show their submission.

After these earth-level intermediate "Dark Crows" expressed their submission, Xiao Hei looked at the remaining twenty or thirty earth-level high-level "Dark Crows" in the sky. However, this time, Xiao Hei did not force them with his own strength as before, but kept "quacking". Under Xiao Hei's control and command. All the "Dark Crows" that had surrendered to Xiao Hei all released their own momentum, combined with Xiao Hei's momentum, and pressed towards the twenty or thirty earth-level high-level "Dark Crows".

The momentum refined by nearly three thousand "Dark Crows" was like a huge mountain pressing towards these twenty or thirty earth-level high-level "Dark Crows". Although these twenty or thirty earth-level high-level "Dark Crows" were not afraid of the united forces, there were differences within them. Some "Dark Crows" were still resisting, while others were hesitating.

Finally, when the first earth-level high-level "Dark Crow" was like the other "Dark Crows". After landing on the ground with its wings down and its head drooped to show its submission, the other "Dark Crows" finally realized that the situation was hopeless, and they descended one by one to show their submission.

Just like that. With the help of the green skull, Xiao Hei officially became the first king of the "Dark Crow" clan in tens of millions of years.

After each king created his own kingdom, he would always sigh, be proud, and show off his power. But at this moment, Xiao Hei didn't care about these. When the last high-level "Dark Crow" of the Earth Rank also expressed his submission, Xiao Hei couldn't wait to shout a few times, announcing the establishment of his status, and then led endless "Dark Crows". Go to support the battlefield between Xu Qingfan and the demons.

Xiao Hei didn't know that when he took out the head of the "Purgatory Wand", he accidentally saved Xu Qingfan once.

Or the demon itself did not realize that its body was actually controlled by two parts. One part was the endless resentment of Zhong Ling, the head of the Zhong family, before his death, and the obsession with killing Xu Qingfan. The other part was the most important part of this body, the source of energy - the body of the "Purgatory Staff".

This "Purgatory Staff" was originally made by the Zhong family's ancestor, the father of the Zhong family's ancestor, when the Zhong family was almost destroyed. He was not happy that he had rare strength in the world, but was bullied by other sects because he did not have a decent magic weapon. So he took his own body as the core and gathered the dead air in the bodies of tens of thousands of high-level zombies to refine this "Purgatory Staff".

The biggest difference between magic weapons and magic tools is that magic weapons have their own unique "souls", and the "soul" of this "Purgatory Staff" is the soul of the Zhong family's ancestor. After becoming a magic weapon, although all the obsessions and memories in his life were erased, his instincts are still there.

Normally, because Zhong Ling's resentment was greater and his obsession was deeper, and the body of the "Purgatory Staff" only had some soul instincts left, so the body of the demon had been controlled by the resentment of Zhong Ling after his death.

At that time, under the surprise of strength, although Xu Qingfan had tried his best, he was still forced into a desperate situation by the demon. His left arm could no longer move, and his right leg was pierced by the tail of the demon's sword. A big hole was pierced, and the blood was flowing. There was also an obvious scratch on his chest, deep into the bone.

In addition, his body had begun to collapse, and the effect of "disintegration **" gradually weakened with the passage of time. Xu Qingfan had no power to resist the demon.

After struggling to block the demon's full-strength attack, Xu Qingfan fell to the ground fiercely, stirring up a lot of yellow sand and smoke, and was unable to get up for a while.

Seeing the demon chasing him, Xu Qingfan struggled to raise the "Against the Sky Sword" but his action was half a beat slower. The head of the "Purgatory Staff" was taken out by Xiao Hei, and the breath was instantly transmitted here.

The demon was about to take out Xu Qingfan's heart with one claw and crush his head with the other claw, but when it flew to three feet in front of Xu Qingfan, a strong obsession suddenly appeared in its heart, causing the demon to fly to Xiao Hei's position, take back the staff head, and merge it with the staff body.

It was the "weapon spirit" in the magic weapon that was working.

But Zhong Ling's obsession was to kill Xu Qingfan, and the two obsessions collided with each other, neither giving in.

And because of this, Zhong Ling's figure rushing towards Xu Qingfan could not help but pause. And taking advantage of this pause, Xu Qingfan finally avoided the demon's attack.

In the end, Zhong Ling's obsession to kill Xu Qingfan was stronger, overwhelmed the "weapon spirit"'s obsession to take back the staff head, and continued to rush towards Xu Qingfan.

However, when it came to its senses. It found that Xu Qingfan in front of it was gone.

But the demon was extremely sensitive to Xu Qingfan, and the next moment, it immediately found Xu Qingfan's location.

Xu Qingfan was right beside him.

The demon turned around, and found that Xu Qingfan took advantage of its struggle and flashed to its side. It turned around, and its chest just met Xu Qingfan, but Xu Qingfan used his remaining strength. He stabbed the "Against the Heaven Sword" in his hand into the demon's chest.

Before, the "Against the Heaven Sword" had injured the demon twice, but it only caused two shallow wounds and drained some blood. At this moment, after the "Against the Heaven Sword" completely penetrated the demon's body, it began to frantically absorb the essence and souls in the demon's body.

The demon's body was formed by the fusion of the bodies and souls of countless demon beasts and monks.

As the "Against the Sky Sword" absorbed, the countless strange eyeballs on the demon's body began to burst one after another. He only felt that the power on his body began to flow into the "Against the Sky Sword" quickly, making the "Against the Sky Sword" more powerful and its ability to absorb souls and blood essence stronger.

The demon roared in fear. He pushed Xu Qingfan, who had used up the last bit of his strength, away and reached out to grab the hilt of the sword, trying to pull out the "Against the Sky Sword". However, the "Against the Sky Sword" seemed to grow on his body and did not move at all.

The demon roared and rolled, constantly pulling out the "Against the Sky Sword" in his chest, and countless strange eyeballs on his body continued to burst. Countless blood dripped into the yellow sand of Xisha.

After a long time, the demon's momentum weakened by nearly half, and finally pulled out the "Against the Sky Sword". At that time, the "Against the Sky Sword" was nourished by countless souls and blood essence, and its demonic energy was already strong. Its power was at least several times stronger. The moment it left the demon, it was like a demon pillar rising into the sky. Surrounded by a large amount of demonic energy and magic light. After being thrown aside by the demon, it restored the appearance of a sword.

After finally escaping from the crisis. The demon panted, trembling, and looked closely at Xu Qingfan who fell in the distance, with deep hatred in his eyes. The wound on his chest was still dripping with blood. Although it had a strong self-healing ability, it was injured by the "Against the Sky Sword" and the wound was invaded by demonic energy, but it was not so easy to heal.

Walking towards Xu Qingfan step by step, the "Against the Sky Sword" is worthy of being the treasure of the magic way. In a short period of time, it actually made the demon lose more than half of its power. At this moment, the demon's footsteps were also a bit staggering.

But this time, the demon was determined to kill Xu Qingfan no matter what.

But just when the demon was about to reach Xu Qingfan, dozens of black shadows suddenly flashed between the two. Xu Qingfan looked carefully and saw that there were nearly thirty huge black figures blocking the demon and Xu Qingfan. These black figures were wearing wide black cloaks and robes, with two blood-red lights flashing under their hoods, with the "Sword of Death" in their left hands and the "Book of Life and Death" in their right hands.

It was the unique ability of the "Dark Crow" clan when it evolved to the advanced earth level - "Death Clone"! !

Behind the demon, thousands of "Dark Crows" gathered together and turned into a vast black cloud, rushing over.

Although the subsequent battle was fierce, there was no suspense.

The demon, who had lost more than half of his power, was seriously injured and invaded by the demonic energy, was no longer able to compete with nearly thirty high-level "Dark Crows", more than two hundred intermediate-level "Dark Crows", and about seven hundred primary-level "Dark Crows".

In fact, the demon had consumed half of his remaining power just to defeat the nearly thirty "Death Clones". After that, he was besieged by countless "Dark Crows". The "Dark Crows" exerted their speed to the extreme, constantly pecking at various parts of the demon's body, or sucking away some mutated death energy in the demon's body, or pecking a certain eyeball on the demon's body.

In general, mutated death energy is harmful even to "Dark Crows", but the greed of "Dark Crows" for death energy is not what others can imagine. Death energy is still death energy after mutation, and it can be slowly refined.

In this way, the demon fought for several hours under the siege of countless "Dark Crows", and was finally killed. Before dying, it still stared at Xu Qingfan closely, with deep hatred in its eyes. The last action was to pounce on Xu Qingfan, but was knocked aside by Xiao Hei.

Xu Qingfan didn't know that the demon could be killed by the "Dark Crow" because in order to suppress the "Weapon Spirit", the "Purgatory Wand" provided it with a greatly reduced death energy...

But all this is not important.

When Xiao Hei came to support, a cup of tea had passed! !

Xu Qingfan's physical collapse was inevitable.

At this moment, Xu Qingfan was still alive, but it was because the holy power in the "Holy Spirit Relic" was maintaining Xu Qingfan's only remaining life. But all the "Holy Spirit Relic" could do was to extend the time as much as possible. It can drive away poison, heal wounds, and exorcise evil, but it cannot save Xu Qingfan's collapsing body.

After the demon died, its body gradually shrank, and eventually turned into a emerald green curved staff and something that looked like an eyeball. Under the sunlight, it was crystal clear and strange.

The emerald green curved staff was the body of the "Purgatory Staff". As soon as it appeared, it flew towards the emerald green skull under Xiao Hei's claws. Surrounded by the deathly aura, the two things quickly merged into one, becoming the real "Purgatory Staff". At this time, the complete "Purgatory Staff" was more deadly.

Xiao Hei took the "Purgatory Staff", the "Against the Sky Sword" that fell to the side, and the crystal clear and strange eyeball of unknown origin, and brought them to Xu Qingfan.

Xu Qingfan looked at the "Purgatory Staff" and "Against the Sky Sword" beside him, and then looked at the countless "Dark Crows" circling above his head, and suddenly smiled bitterly.

Xu Qingfan suddenly remembered the picture he got from the divination. In that picture, he had become a demon, surrounded by demonic energy, holding the "Against the Heaven Sword" in one hand and the "Purgatory Staff" in the other. Above his head, countless "Dark Crows" were circling. He looked like an invincible demon king.

At this moment, the "Against the Heaven Sword" and the "Purgatory Staff" were in his hands. Through Xiao Hei, he also controlled countless "Dark Crows". The picture obtained from the divination met almost all the conditions.

However, he did not become a demon, but he had to become a ghost first...

"At least, I won't become a devil in the world of cholera. This can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes... Heaven's way... destiny... Sure enough, there is a time to change, although this kind of change is not what I expected..."

Xu Qingfan closed his eyes and felt the gradual collapse of his body, quietly waiting for the moment of death to come, thinking secretly.

What Xu Qingfan didn't know was that at this moment, Zhang Xusheng, who had just lost his body and was left with only his Nascent Soul and his life essence and blood, was being chased by the three great masters of the righteous path, but he accidentally hit him. The location is coming soon.

The moment when his destiny changed really began.

However, whether he becomes a ghost or a demon ultimately depends on himself.
