Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 72 – Sword Picking Wu Tong

As he expected, when there were only two people left in the picture, the demon appeared.

But what he didn't expect was that even though they were both trapped in the foundational realm, the gap between him and the demon was still huge!

The demon didn't even make a move, just the pressure of his qi and blood made Su Yun's eyes go blind again!

The girl in red, Wu Tong, dragged her long dress and walked around Su Yun, her voice soft: "You were the first human parasite I met when I left the Tomb of the Dragon. I planned to parasitize you, but I saw many ghosts and gods staring at me in the clouds and fog, so I gave up."

Su Yun quietly lifted his foot and stepped on the hem of her dress, smiling: "Those are my seniors in Tianmen Town. They will appear to protect me when I'm blind."

"They might have at that time, but not now. You no longer have their protection."

Wu Tong whispered, "But because of that, I spared you and later parasitized this girl when I entered the city."

Su Yun felt a tug on his foot and raised an eyebrow, striking out with a combination of two techniques, Hong Lu Shan Bian and Ri Yue Die Bi. He used Hong Lu Shan Bian as his mental technique and Ri Yue Die Bi as his martial technique.

He used the sixth move of Ri Yue Die Bi.

The name of the sixth move was Ri Yue Die Bi, which meant that the sun and moon were like two pieces of jade bi stacked together, referring to two astronomical phenomena, lunar and solar eclipses.

The technique of Ri Yue Die Bi used the left hand for yang and the right hand for yin. The left hand represented the sun and the right hand represented the moon. When the left hand was in front, it was a solar eclipse, with yin as the main element. When the right hand was in front, it was a lunar eclipse, with yang as the main element.

Su Yun turned his qi and blood into a large sun and a bright moon, his hands like arrows piercing through the ring, stepping on the long skirt of the girl Wu Tong, and moving forward. Every strike made a loud bang in the air!

However, his heart grew heavier and heavier. No matter how he attacked, he never touched a single hair on the girl.

Even though he was stepping on her clothes, it was like there was always a distance between him and the girl.

Su Yun stopped attacking, trying to recall the scene he saw when he entered this main hall, forming a spatial map in his mind.

Ordinary maps were flat, but he had developed a habit of drawing three-dimensional maps when he was blind.

"After coming to Shuofang, I figured some things out."

Wu Tong's voice came, sometimes left, sometimes right, sometimes front, sometimes back, elusive. Her voice seemed to have no emotion: "The thing I figured out was why I was able to escape from the Tomb of the Dragon."

Su Yun was stunned and showed a thoughtful look, smiling: "So, you figured it out?"

"I figured it out."

Wu Tong's voice seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, as if she was hiding in Su Yun's chest, emitting a pleasant but emotionless voice: "Someone needs me to cause chaos in the world and create turmoil, and he wants to get rid of me to gain fame and reputation. He wants to accomplish a great cause of changing the world."

Su Yun stepped on her dress and asked, "Who is this person? Did you figure that out too?"

Wu Tong's dress seemed to be able to grow endlessly. Su Yun stepped on the girl's dress but could not find her.

In theory, if Wu Tong's dress was really that long, it could easily cover the entire palace, making the ground of the palace covered in red skirts!

"Her dress is growing!" Su Yun thought.At this moment, Su Yun felt like he was opening his mouth, but it was the voice of the young girl Wu Tong that was coming out!

He heard himself say, "I understand now. That person must be the one from 150 years ago. He's like a true dragon, outstanding and unique. He's both big and small like a true dragon, capable of hiding and appearing, soaring through the nine heavens, and also able to hide his tracks and lurk in the abyss."

Su Yun felt a chill down his spine. It was as if the girl Wu Tong had fused with his body and could control his actions.

He finally understood why the Tian Dao Institute's scholar who buried the Dragon Tomb 150 years ago was willing to die there and not leave with the demonic person.

Because if they left with that demonic person, the outside world would not be able to withstand its devastation!

So they were determined to leave the demonic person in the Dragon Tomb, even if it meant sacrificing themselves.

"People say that demons are the most terrifying."

Wu Tong's voice seemed to leave his body and come from above his left side, as if floating in the air. "But it's the human heart that's the most terrifying. Aren't demons just the manifestation of the darkness in people's hearts? And some people are born demons. The person who killed me 150 years ago and left the Dragon Tomb alive, his actions prove my point."

Su Yun laughed loudly, trying to appear calm. "If you understand this, why do you still want to participate in the Grand Examination and cause chaos?"

He still couldn't see anything with his eyes, but he could sense a blurry figure around him with his blood and qi. It was flying around above his head like a flying goddess in a temple.

"He lured me into killing, and I'm also looking for an opportunity to lure him out."

Wu Tong's voice was erratic and cheerful. "He's hiding in the dark, and I can't find his true form. But he lured me into killing, and I can use this opportunity to lure him out."

Su Yun's heart stirred, and he felt a hint of admiration for the demonic person. "So after you entered Shuofang, you have already completed your reincarnation. You don't need to rely on the Grand Examination to choose the strongest host, right?"

"I need three blood sacrifices for my reincarnation. The larger the scale of the blood sacrifice, the stronger I will be after reincarnation. That person thought I would definitely use this Scholar Grand Examination to cause chaos and reincarnate. But he didn't expect that I had completed my reincarnation after entering the city."

Wu Tong came down from the air and took Su Yun's hand. Su Yun felt her hand was icy cold, like a dead person's hand.

The girl walked with him, leaning on him and whispering softly, "I know he's planning to use me, so I didn't go on a killing spree. I chose the safest path. I completed three blood sacrifices on the way to Shuofang and reincarnated directly after entering the city. I'm waiting for him to reveal himself."

She pulled Su Yun forward and turned to look at him, like a lover holding her sweetheart's hand, and smiled, "He's such a cunning person. He must be hiding very well. I deliberately let the Poisonous Dragon attract their attention outside, and I caused two chaos outside to give him a chance to show himself. Poor Poisonous Dragon, he still thinks I'm a Divine Dragon!"

Su Yun followed her involuntarily and couldn't help but shudder. He laughed, "You're such a clever little devil. I think I'm starting to like you."

"Yes!" Wu Tong leaned her head on his shoulder and rubbed against him affectionately.Su Yun was rubbed like a fox with exploded hair by her, and his hair stood on end. He forced a smile and said, "Once he is exposed, you will know who your opponent is. And then, you can hide in the dark and change your offense and defense. His expression will definitely be wonderful!"

The girl Wu Tong stopped and happily hooked her arms around his neck, like a lover who had received a reward. She said affectionately, "He would never have thought that I was also waiting to plot against him! Now, it should be getting dark outside. There's still a battle between us!"

Su Yun hugged her waist with both hands and smiled, "I suddenly remembered that I only had one meal today, and I haven't had lunch yet. Are you hungry? Why don't we eat something first?"

Wu Tong chuckled and asked, "What can we eat here in the spirit world?"

"Eat my attack!"

Su Yun laughed loudly, hugged her into his arms, and without saying a word, he performed the "Old Ape Embracing the Bell" technique and slammed down with force!

If it were an ordinary scholar, his bones would have been shattered by this attack. However, the girl in his arms suddenly disappeared, causing his attack to fall completely empty.

Su Yun's heart sank, and he smiled, "Wu Tong, did you use your blood and energy to suppress my five senses and six senses, and create an illusion for me? So, where is your real body?"

"I have been lying on the throne all the time, without moving my body."

Su Yun suddenly turned sideways, facing the direction of the throne, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

On the throne, the girl in red stood up gracefully. She had never moved from the beginning to the end. Instead, she used her blood and energy to oppress Su Yun's blood and energy, creating various illusions for him!

And this time, she decided to take action.

"I have one more question."

Su Yun smiled ignorantly and asked, "Why did you tell me all this? If I die, you will be the strongest, and people outside will definitely suspect that you are a demon! And if you let me go, you are not afraid that I will leave here alive and reveal your secrets?"

"Su Lang, what are you thinking?"

Wu Tong chuckled, lightly stroked his face, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said calmly, "They won't believe you because I will parasitize a part of you and devour your spiritual essence. You will become a demon, and if you eliminate me, you will be the only winner. And..."

At this moment, Su Yun felt a violent thunder sound and a surge of qi and blood rushing into his right arm!

He transformed the thunder sound in his chest into a dragon's roar, and blood rushed into his right arm at an incredible speed. Su Yun turned around and drew his sword!

At the moment he drew his sword, he lost his sense of Wu Tong again.

"And, you are a demon, and you will go on a killing spree after you leave."

Wu Tong in a red dress appeared in his "vision". The girl walked in the imprint of Tianmen Town, looked up at the immortal sword in the sky, and smiled at him, "If he kills you, he will think I am dead and relax his guard. From then on, he will be my enemy, and I will control him."

Su Yun gritted his teeth, and qi and blood rushed into his eyes. The patterns of countless divine beasts in the Eight-Faced Heavenly Seal revived and flew towards the Tianmen. The Tianmen revived, and an unimaginable gravitational force came, pulling Su Yun's spiritual essence, trying to pull his spiritual essence into another world!

"Whether I can survive or not, it all depends on this move!"

Su Yun was almost crazy, desperately urging the imprint of the Eight-Faced Heavenly Seal. "I want to see if the Ten Embroidered Picture can resist the revived Tianmen and seal my spiritual essence!"At the same time, the Ten Embroidery Picture suppressed Su Yun's spiritual realm, keeping it in a closed state, while his spiritual energy was inside his own spiritual realm.

The power of the Heavenly Gate and the power of the Ten Embroidery Picture suddenly collided!

A familiar sound of a Huang bell rang in Su Yun's ears!

His blood surged almost violently, connecting the blood in his spiritual energy technique with his own blood, allowing him to return to the realm of cultivating spirit and energy!

In Su Yun's eyes, both the Immortal Sword and the Heavenly Gate, as well as the turbulent North Sea and the world beyond, were all spinning and disappearing around him.

His vision and all his senses returned, and the scene of the main hall appeared again in his eyes, with the red-clothed girl also in his sight.

Su Yun roared, using his arm as a sword to strike Wu Tong with his sword!
