Chapter 206 Soul Split
Zhou Ling had already received the warning from Daniu in his heart, and without thinking, he swung his sword and slashed!
The man and the bull cooperated very well, and everything happened in the blink of an eye. Before the black air could react, it was cut into two pieces by the sword.
However, even though it was cut into two pieces, it showed no signs of disintegrating. Instead, like a gecko trying to survive by cutting off its tail, its body and tail were separated, but it was still twisting and struggling on the ground, as if to attract people's attention or trying to move its separated bodies in an attempt to merge them again.
It was the first time that Zhou Ling saw the fighting power of the big bull. Although he had seen it fight before, as a bull, it actually used brute force the most. This was the first time it used magic like this.
When it stepped on the black energy before, the power concentrated in its hooves was something Zhou Ling had never seen before. Now, after cutting the black energy in half, it raised its hooves again and stepped down hard, using another kind of power that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
Why did she say she was familiar with it? Because Zhou Ling seemed to have seen it once, when Erniu was burned to ashes and reborn from the fire, transforming into a colorful phoenix.
One of them flies in the sky and the other walks on the ground. They are two completely different species. How come the energy they use is similar?
Is there some unknown relationship between them?
Fortunately, the situation was urgent and it was not the time for Zhou Ling to be absent. Otherwise, if she had let her brain idle and had some free time, she would have definitely imagined a long history of love, hatred, and the complicated source of power between the two of them.
The strange thing is that the black air that was previously cut off by Zhou Ling's sword still had the possibility of twisting and struggling to recover, but now, under the step of the power condensed by Daniu, it was actually stirred up completely, and nothing was left, not even a trace of breath.
"How did you do that!?" Zhou Ling was really shocked, his tone and expression were very exaggerated.
"Moo..." This time, Da Niu did not respond in her mind, but opened his mouth and mooed.
Zhou Ling naturally didn't understand, but generally speaking, this kind of situation might be related to some inherited memory, so it would be inappropriate for him to continue to explore its bottom line.
"Forget it, forget it. Let me change the question. What is this black gaseous object?"
The reason why it asked Daniu was that the thing that it couldn't kill with one sword was stepped to death by Daniu. Perhaps, Daniu knew him better?
"The demon's soul."
This time the question could be answered, and the voice of Da Niu sounded directly in Zhou Ling's mind.
"Oh...Ah!? What! The soul of the demon clan??"
Zhou Ling was supposed to say "oh" calmly when he heard the answer, but halfway through he suddenly realized something was wrong. There is only one demon in this world, and it is the one sealed in the volcanic land in the south!
I had heard from my master a long time ago that the demon had worn open a tiny crack in the seal and had laboriously sent a bit of his soul out.
But the master said that it actually took a lot of effort for that wisp of his soul to be sent out of the seal at that time, so there is no need to worry at the beginning. That wisp of soul may be very weak and will hide somewhere, and will not come out to cause trouble.
But now the time that has passed is neither long nor short. A few months have passed, and the spirit that escaped from the demon clan has actually... actually recovered and even tracked here! ?
This is a precise calculation. She must be killed in the secret realm when it opens?
An unprecedented sense of panic almost engulfed Lan Fei.
After all, the one he's facing this time isn't just a small fry like before, but most likely the real boss!
Although she was not the real master, but only a fragment of the opponent's soul, what was Zhou Ling's current cultivation level? It was not an exaggeration to call her a weakling. With a mere foundation building level, how could she have the strength to fight against that fragment of soul?
"Don't be afraid, we are all here."
Once again noticing the panic in his little master's heart, Daniu opened his mouth and spoke in a somewhat clumsy way to comfort him. After all...
The demon's actions this time didn't seem like they had any brains, they could have attacked anyone else but him.
Is it because the one who came here this time was only a trace of soul exploring the way, so he didn't use his brain and couldn't distinguish the race of others?
In fact, when it stepped on the black air just now, it felt it. The demon's soul actually had an ulterior motive. He knew his own limitations and knew that his small soul could not do anything to Zhou Ling, so he planned to possess the souls of other people, slowly try to control them, and then use them for his own purposes.
The reason why the black air wanted to get close to his cow's hoof was probably because it saw his huge size and thought that if it went crazy, it could hurt Zhou Ling, so it wanted to control it.
However, he forgot that they are not human and cannot be easily controlled. Also, because of their bloodline, they are born with the ability to restrain demons.
If the demon's soul messes with them, it will be like hitting a wall.
Even though he and Erniu combined were no match for the demon's real body after it arrived, he was only facing a small fragment of its soul, so what was there to be afraid of?
"Well, I'll try my best..."
Zhou Ling raised her hand and took a deep breath.
Now she has to face her destined mortal enemy, how can she not be afraid?
Although my mother is by my side, as are Da Niu and Er Niu, but when they are combined, how strong can their fighting power be?
Because her overall strength was too weak, she was afraid. If she was not a small foundation-building person now, but was holding the Hengyue Sword, and could borrow power from the Heavenly Dao to consolidate the seal again, she would feel that she still had some strength to fight, and there was no need to be discouraged and despair so early.
He turned his head again and looked at the direction of the volcano where the Hengyue Sword was. He didn't think it was urgent before. After all, he could stay here to practice. One more day of practice means one more day of advantage.
But what was even more unexpected was that the soul of the demon clan actually came here. The situation changed, and she had to be anxious. She just hoped that the Hengyue Sword could be repaired as soon as possible, or at least return to her hands before the secret realm was closed.
Danger could come at any time, so she had to be fully prepared to have a chance to escape safely.
My master and other teachers are not around, and I don’t have anyone with high combat power to protect me. I don’t feel safe wherever I go.
After all, when that wisp of black air appeared, she didn't think it was the soul of the demon, so there was no disguise on her face.
Her true self was seen by the demon, so...
In this secret realm, they will eventually have a battle, and either he dies or he perishes!
Since he has seen my face, I can’t let this fragment of his soul leave alive!
As if her inner call was heard, and as if after enduring these few months, the Hengyue Sword that Zhou Ling had been thinking about was finally repaired. Just as she made a vow to fight to the death in her heart, there was an unusual movement at the entrance of the volcano in the distance.
