Cataclysm King - #372 - Chapter 372 Meeting Aunt Nan Again
PS. The content is as mentioned
While Ji Xun was deep in thought, Edward Scissorhands attacked again.
It disappeared on the spot like a ghost, its sharp scissors flashed with cold light, and it appeared a foot away in the blink of an eye.
Ji Xun snorted coldly, his fists filled with domineering aura, resisting the incoming sharp blade.
“Keng!”
There was a flash of fire.
At the same time, there was a crisp sound of gold and stone interlacing.
Ji Xun glanced at the cut wound on his bronze skin and his eyes were slightly stern.
At the same time, use your strength to quickly retreat and widen the distance.
With the blessing of the clown’s shadow behind him, the world in his eyes became extremely clear at this moment, and he gradually saw through the traces of his opponent’s moves.
I have to admit that although they are both fifth level, the difference in understanding of the laws of this special level undead is much higher than mine.
This also allows the opponent to find the weak points of the spell, almost achieving the effect of “ignoring defense” with every move.
But Ji Xun was just a physical assassin, Necromancer, so he didn’t think he would be defeated.
As long as you are not killed in the first meeting, this gap will become smaller and smaller.
However, there is more than one special undead spirit in this carriage.
Seeing that the battle in front of him was still inconclusive, the three-meter-tall blue-skinned lady undead mocked: “Edward, can you do it?”
Scissorhand snorted coldly: “Hmph!”
The lady saw that it was still unable to be taken down, and said to herself: “Don’t say I’m a bad person. You won’t be able to take down this human being in a short time. I’ll help you, sister.”
Before anyone could say anything, the lady stood up and sang a fatal song.
Ji Xun has been carefully observing the movements of the other evil spirits.
When he saw the lady starting to sing, he immediately closed his hearing.
But even so, I still feel the frequency of the air vibrating with the lyrics.
Enlightenment appears simultaneously:
“You are affected by the magic sound secret spell ‘Re Gate·Harmony Shock Convergence’, and the energy and elemental chaos +35%”
“You have been eroded by the magic sound secret spell ‘Sol Gate-Strong Sound Shocking Soul’, and the clown mask has the immunity blessing, and you have fallen into a state of slight soul chaos.”
“It turns out to be the wraith of the [7 of Plum Blossoms-Singer] sequence”
Only then did Ji Xun realize that the elements and qi around his body were scattered, and he thought to himself: “This ability is a bit of a restraint of qigong.”
Elemental and mental chaos are not a big problem for the time being.
But the air was dispersed by the sound waves. As a result, the biggest impact on him was the limitation of his “air control” ability.
It’s like the buoyancy of the water suddenly becomes less, and it takes more effort to swim.
Fortunately, the opponent’s spell level is still limited to level five.
Ji Xun’s own ability can save most of them.
It’s not fatal for a while.
Moreover, this group of resentful spirits still had a playful mentality. They seemed to want to capture them alive and did not kill them immediately.
Seeing this scene, Ji Xun’s thoughts were racing in his mind.
He realized that this was an opportunity.
With his thoughts together, Ji Xun tried to unblock some of his shielded perceptions and carefully observed and felt the lady’s mouth shape and the frequency of the air trembling.
Although this will be more affected by the spell.
But he knew that he could only procrastinate as long as he could understand the methods of these undead as quickly as possible.
If it were just in this state, it would still be far from being able to deal with two super-level wraiths at the same time.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun took out another porcelain bottle from the storage ring and drank it in one gulp.
This is the [Mingwu Immortal Dew] I won from a shopkeeper in a bet before.
It was originally planned to be used when breaking through the bottleneck.
Now it seems that I have to use it.
At the same time as the entrance, enlightenment appeared: “Temporary understanding +5, the state continues to decay, lasting for three days.”
“It’s really good!”
Ji Xun looked happy in his heart.
【JOKER】After solving the magic problem, you have a very unparalleled ability, which is “learn now and apply now”.
This is also what he relies on to defeat powerful enemies many times.
With the blessing of the clown mask and the magic solution, his understanding has already reached a very high state.
Now this fairy dew also adds five points of temporary understanding.
It’s hard to imagine what magical changes there will be.
The moment I took the medicine, a cooling sensation hit my heart.
Ji Xun felt as if his soul was immersed in ice water, and his thoughts became extremely clear and efficient!
Looking at the attack of the undead in this state, it is like a teaching video, and it is engraved in my mind after just one glance.
“You gained insights during the battle, and your ‘Virtual Flash’ understanding +8”
“You gained insights during the battle, and your proficiency in the ‘Broken Claw’ martial skill +32.”
“.”
Enlightenment is also constantly refreshed.
At this moment, in Ji Xun’s eyes, the movement and moves of [Edward Scissorhands] were extremely clear in his eyes.
Coupled with the ability of photographic memory, those martial arts moves are like a secret book in front of you. You can perform them one by one, without any secrets.
This is an indescribable state.
Everything around him became clear.
The blessing of super high understanding made Ji Xun’s whole figure seem to be soaring into the clouds, and his head was surging with excitement.
Before, only the moment when I was about to die could I have such a clear sensory world.
But now, the feeling is constant and steady.
This also gave Ji Xun great spiritual satisfaction.
Originally, his biggest disadvantage against these two “super-level resentful spirits” was that the opponent’s level was too high, and there were things in the opponent’s moves and spells that he could not understand at his current level.
Now, Ji Xun’s understanding ability has been enhanced by the potion, and with five points of understanding blessing, his cognition has been forcibly elevated to another dimension.
He felt that he could vaguely understand the “super high realm” of those evil spirits.
If you can say that you can understand 70% of the attack methods of the two undead.
So now, it’s 90%.
“Keng!”
“Keng!”
“Keng!”
Ji Xun and the Scissorhand were still fighting fiercely in the carriage.
Facing a physical assassin, from the moment it can’t kill you in seconds, it’s destined to be a tug-of-war.
As time went by, each move lost much of its secrets in his eyes.
However, Ji Xun didn’t act too abruptly.
Even though he was sure of the means to deal with the Scissorhands, Ji Xun still behaved as embarrassed and beaten as before, occasionally still hanging on by a thread.
Kill the enemy?
Ji Xun was interested in trying to see if he could kill the fat singing woman.
But he didn’t dare to act rashly in this situation.
After all, there are more than two enemies.
Not far away there were several people watching eagerly.
Ji Xun knew from the beginning that he was in a situation where he had absolutely no chance of winning.
All he wanted to do was delay.
Always give the enemy the illusion that they can almost kill you, so as to prolong the battle for the longest time.
Qin Ru’s side will also be more prosperous.
At a certain moment, the deadly music beside Ji Xun’s ears suddenly became harmonious.
The negative state during enlightenment has become positive for the first time: “You understand the secret spell of the magic sound ‘Mimen – High-pitched Wind’, and your agility +5%.”
This is a spell that amplifies the Scissorhands.
Now that it has become his own gain, Ji Xun smiled evilly in his heart: “Hey, [Singer] is really a good auxiliary career sequence.”
Group control, group damage, group gain.
I have experienced all the methods I have only read about in classics today.
In this way, the battle lasted for a quarter of an hour.
Ji Xun felt worse and worse, and said to himself: “I don’t know what’s going on with Aunt Qin.”
With one against two, he looked at dangers everywhere. In fact, apart from consuming some lifespan, the problem was not big.
But these “super undead souls” have lived for hundreds of years and are very thoughtful.
Even if there were no flaws in Ji Xun’s performance, they gradually discovered problems.
If this human being cannot be killed once or twice, it can be said to be a coincidence.
Then they couldn’t be killed every time, and they realized that they had been deceived by Ji Xun.
The three-meter-tall lady suddenly said: “There is something weird about this human being!”
As soon as these words came out, the kobold with six heads on his neck in room 004 sneered angrily: “Humph. Did you just find out?”
The six dog heads obviously see the situation more clearly than other evil spirits.
It revealed Ji Xun’s plan in one sentence: “That boy just took [Mingwu Immortal Dew], and he has already seen through the methods of the two of you. He has been suppressing the methods to make you think you can kill him, but actually he wants to delay time.” It’s a good idea.”
The flame ghost in room 008 also smiled strangely and said: “Hey, I just observed it and found that this guy’s soul is very interesting. If you can give me your soul, I wouldn’t mind helping you solve the problem.”
006’s mud monster muttered to himself in terror: “Just leave me two legs. It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten such high-quality human flesh.”
009 The pile of slimy tentacles at the door couldn’t speak, but they also reached over with malicious intentions.
The evil spirits spoke one after another as if they were discussing how to divide the meals on the plate.
Malice swept through the entire carriage like a tidal wave.
This also gave Ji Xun some time to breathe.
Seeing this, Ji Xun knew that delaying tactics were useless.
If one more evil spirit joins the battle, it will be difficult for him to cope with it.
Taking advantage of the fact that several undead souls failed to reach an agreement,
Strike first to gain the upper hand!
From the observation just now, Ji Xun had already discerned the rhythmic pattern in the singing of the dead soul of the noble lady [Singer].
It was at this moment that he found a subtle pause for breath in the melody of the song.
Taking advantage of the moment it took a breather, Ji Xun’s speed suddenly doubled.
He punched hard.
“Boom!”
A punch struck the noble lady’s chest, her pair of huge breasts.
The lady looked horrified, looking at her chest shattering into pieces, her trembling eyes seemed to say: How is this possible?
Looking at each other for a moment, Ji Xun only had a sneer in his eyes.
This undead spirit knows that he is a fighter who is good at Qigong, so he has been using his singing to disrupt the airflow around him and restrict his movements.
But at the moment when he broke through just now, Ji Xun used not only the air control, but also the “repulsion force” that had never been exposed before.
The repulsion-enhanced body technique is completely unaffected by air currents, catching the enemy by surprise.
This lady is a physical undead spirit, and this punch to the chest is equally fatal!
What’s more, the [Singer] sequence is a fragile profession.
The realm of Baoshi is much higher than the ordinary fifth level, but Ji Xun’s punch is also not something that a fifth level card master can withstand!
A punch was poured in, and the moment the skin broke open, the destructive power of the fist poured in like a volcanic eruption.
In just an instant, a penetrating wound nearly twenty centimeters in diameter was opened on the noble lady’s chest.
“ah!”
The noble lady was severely injured on the spot, and she immediately let out a piercing scream from her throat.
Not only Ji Xun was in a daze as he listened, but other undead souls in the corridor were also affected and sluggish.
Ji Xun had already deduced this situation.
He thrust the sobering potion in his hand at his neck, and at the same time he rushed towards Room 007!
The undead spirits that appeared in the corridor now were all malicious, and Ji Xun absolutely could not bring in Room 002 where Qin Rushi was, so it could only be Room 007!
The train attendant had reminded him before that [Black Magic] was a passenger item in Room 007.
Ji Xun felt that since the “one” in that room had not come out, he might not be one of these evil spirits.
Entering that room would not make the situation worse.
Maybe there was still a chance of gambling on luck.
What if the other party could help?
As long as one or two undead spirits could be restrained, there would be hope of a comeback.
However, it was the moment Ji Xun started.
Something unexpected happened again!
Ji Xun suddenly felt a chill on his back, and that sense of crisis was like someone reminding him: Don’t go to Room 007! That’s a trap!
“Huh?”
Ji Xun’s expression was stern, and his movements suddenly stopped.
His current rank intuition was very sharp, and any sense of crisis could point to a fatal crisis.
But this was not a sense of crisis that he had acquired himself, but an external one!
“Did someone remind me just now?”
Ji Xun was also very surprised when he thought of this.
Could it be the conductor?
No.
If the conductor could intervene, he would have reminded me before.
Ji Xun ruled it out instantly, and glanced at the unopened room 001.
It could only be this room.
Although he didn’t know what was going on in that private room, reality didn’t give him any time to hesitate.
It was also a gamble on luck.
He chose 001!
Ji Xun made a prompt decision, stopped his body, and suddenly turned to the front of the train.
At the same moment, Ji Xun also noticed the astonishment of the undead, as if they were very surprised why he changed direction.
It was at this moment of staring at each other that Ji Xun realized that these undead were not incapable of stopping him just now, but were acting himself!
They even wanted him to go to room 007.
“I understand!”
Ji Xun glanced at this scene, and a cold sweat broke out on his back instantly.
But at the same time, he suddenly realized why these guys all had the same black silk thread on them.
These undead spirits are not independent individuals at all, they are all puppets controlled by the one in Room 007!
These guys have been trying to force me to go to Room 007 from the beginning to the end!
Ji Xun didn’t have time to think about it, and he had already touched the door handle of Room 001.
He pulled it hard, and the door couldn’t be opened as expected.
Ji Xun’s expression was stern, and he muttered: “Little Ivan, it’s up to you.”
“Oh.”
After that, a little head popped out of his pocket, and it was Ivan who had just woken up not long ago.
In fact, Ji Xun had already considered using Ivan’s spatial ability as the last means of escape on the train.
But after checking, Ivan gave a bad conclusion that was expected.
That is: there is a very high-grade spatial restriction on this Netherworld train.
Don’t expect to jump out of the train.
Not to mention that the spatial law of the train itself is much higher than that of the little loli, and it is almost impossible to break it.
Besides, this [Neon] train is not running on the material plane at all.
Ji Xun didn’t quite understand, but from what the little girl said, this Netherworld Train was like a submarine sailing in the deep sea, and jumping out would definitely kill him.
Only the space shift inside the train could be tried.
But even the space coordinates inside the train were chaotic.
In layman’s terms, the door in front of him was not just a ten-centimeter-thick door, but might contain several meters or hundreds of meters of folded space restrictions.
If you really want to go through it in ordinary space, you will inevitably get lost in the space turbulence and never come back.
Ivan touched the door handle and immediately felt the layers of mysterious space restrictions. He frowned and said in a childish voice: “Mr. Ji Xun, the restrictions here are different. It may take me some time to find the correct coordinates in the room.”
After thinking about it, she added: “Well, about five minutes.”
Finding the correct space coordinates is like looking for a deserted island in the sea that is not on the map.
Even an experienced captain needs time and luck.
“.” Ji Xun frowned and said in a deep voice: “Okay! I’ll try my best to hold on. If not, you go first.” Although his tone was still calm, he felt something was wrong. He didn’t think he could hold on for five minutes in front of a few more special-grade undeads that had completely exposed their malicious intent. Ji Xun was already considering whether to take the risk of using the forbidden weapon of the devil [Black Magic]. When Ivan cracked the exact spatial coordinates behind the door, the reminder from the dark appeared in his mind again: spatial coordinates southeast: 312, 221. Ji Xun heard it and his expression suddenly became cold: “Here it comes again!” He realized that this was some kind of mysterious communication method. Moreover, after a little deduction, he suddenly knew who was reminding him! Without any hesitation, Ji Xun repeated the coordinates: “Little Ivan, hurry! Southeast: 312, 221.”
Ivan was tinkering with his paintbrush. When he heard Ji Xun’s words, he immediately tried it: “Hey, it’s true!”
As he said that, he drew a line with the paintbrush, and a space crack appeared in front of him.
Ji Xun stepped into the space crack without any hesitation.
The room in front of him was almost exactly the same as 002.
In the room, a cloaked man was in a lit up nine-pointed star formation, as if he had just cast some expensive spell, and his “qi” was a little weak.
Seeing Ji Xun come in smoothly, the cloaked man looked up and sighed slightly with relief.
Ji Xun looked at the cloaked man with a complicated expression. He suppressed the doubts in his heart and took the initiative to say hello: “Aunt Nan.”
This mysterious cloaked figure is none other than
It was Nan Sushang, the high priest of Oran whom I had met twice, the mother of Miss Wanzitou.
