Chapter 2779 - 66: Like a Dream, Like a Bubble_2

So I was surprised and said: "Xiong Sansi killed Feng Jiefu in Mentou Valley? His famous battle after ascending to rank eighth on the Heavenly List? You were there at the time?"

"That was three years ago..." She Guyu was unwilling to talk more, and only said: "I witnessed the entire battle. Even now, if I were to face that Xiong Sansi from back then, I still wouldn’t be confident."

Pig Dali speculated that the Snake Family Head might have taken She Guyu to Mentou Valley at that time.

"I have a question, I don’t know if I should ask..."

"Then don’t ask." She Guyu’s voice turned cold, cutting off the conversation.

"...Oh."

In the Mirror World, Jiang Wang did not know yet. Even though he had severed ties with the Faceless Sect from the beginning, his traces were still caught. The current Mo Yun City had spread a giant net, waiting for him, the Faceless God, to return... He couldn’t judge the power of the Heavenly Demon, it was beyond his imagination.

At this moment he sat alone in the mirror, examining every detail within the Land of Shenxiao.

The Land of Shenxiao had its own miraculous power, the power of the Red Mirror simply couldn’t enter the dense forest from the shady path. So, most of the time, he had to rely on the divine seal, borrowing Pig Dali’s sight.

Among all the participating demon clans, he feared Lu Qilang and Xiong Sansi the most.

The former’s spirit perception was terrifying, most likely to detect his presence, triggering a scenario of group attack. The latter had the most and longest preparation for the Land of Shenxiao. Although he was revealed by the Knowledge and Hearing Bell at the start, seemingly standing in the open, he actually hadn’t exposed his foundations. In Jiang Wang’s view, he was unfathomable. In the midst of encircling enemies, one should not easily initiate an unprepared battle. The more mysterious, the more distance one must keep.

She Guyu moved silently, while Pig Dali stomped on dead branches and fallen leaves, with a rather domineering manner.

Goo goo goo, goo goo goo.

At a certain moment, there was suddenly a strange noise.

This sound seemed to come from all directions at once, impossible to pinpoint a specific location.

It was like the bubbling of a spring eye, but sharper.

Like some kind of strange bird call, yet there was no sign of life.

"Did you hear any sound?" Pig Dali grasped the double straight knives in his hands, looking cautiously around.

But he received no response...

"Miss Snake?!"

He turned back in alarm, seeing She Guyu’s body completely move out of the shadows, already frozen in place, motionless. No breath remained, eyes dull, with no signs of life!

Could she be dead?

She was a powerhouse at the level of a new king on the Heavenly List, how could she die silently?

"Miss Snake?"

Pig Dali remained on high alert, exerted force into his body, reversed the knife handle, probing forward—

A slight breeze seemed to blow past, and She Guyu’s body, in her black outfit, along with the clothes, turned into gray-white powder, drifting in the wind.

This scene was too horrifying.

A giant fear descended upon his heart.

"Daozhu?!" Pig Dali exclaimed in his mind.

The Taiping Divine Wind Seal responded immediately: "Relax."

Pig Dali directly relinquished control of his body. Under the black veil, his eyes, like a silent sea, surged with frost-white wind marks.

The hands holding the knives twisted slightly, and the entire combat posture of his body changed completely.

At this moment, the Taiping Daoist was present through the Taiping Divine Wind Seal!

Simultaneously.

The gray-white powder’s trajectory in the air seemed to form a demon-shaped outline. From that outline, a skeletal creature clutching a knife and shield leaped out, slashing down.

The level of this power?

The Taiping Daoist controlling Pig Dali felt a slight astonishment, not surprised by the blade’s strength, but by its weakness. It did not match the dangerous atmosphere brought by the eerie phenomenon. It certainly wasn’t a power that could take away She Guyu.

Clang!

The thought continued, the action also proceeded.

To describe it as lightning speed was still too slow; it was merely a fleeting thought.

In the moment of the straight knife’s intersection, another straight knife had already pierced through the round shield, shattering the skeleton’s body. The sword force roared like a tornado, tearing the skeleton into tiny pieces.

In the sky full of gray-white bone fragments, the hefty body just retreated a step and then stabilized, its form switching from extreme movement to extreme stillness, momentarily like a sculpture.

And those skeleton’s shattered gray-white bone fragments, like coarse sand, fell silently a knife’s distance in front, rustling.

This exquisite control of power fascinated Pig Dali, who had let go of the control over his body.

Every time the Daozhu inhabited him through a billionth of a thought, it was the most rewarding moment for him. Every battle where the Daozhu was present afforded him ample material to ponder repeatedly. Every detail of combat provided immense benefits.

Describing it as a day-by-day rapid improvement might be exaggerated... but to say he gained a level after each battle was absolutely true.

At this time, Pig Dali "saw" his body move again. With a twist of the foot, a side step, the long knife in his hand merely swung slightly, and the blade force ominously rose. He felt an effortless sense of ease, like being in the most fitting environment where every muscle lump was in the right place, exerting the right force... Thus, he advanced!

Advance!

In front was a white skeletal creature leaping from the trajectory drawn by gray-white bone fragments. Its bones were intact and solid, very tactile, wielding a bone spear, dropping a myriad of cold stars.

Relying on himself alone, Pig Dali couldn’t possibly withstand such a spear move.

But at this moment, the long knife in the air just twisted. Two arching tracks snaked through nimbly, like a comet tail spanning the sky, sweeping the cold stars away.
