Purgatory Artist-Chapter 455: The Nightmare Fiend
Chapter 455 - The Nightmare Fiend
In the darkness.
An old man in a suit took out a pair of leather gloves and put them on.
His body gave off a faint glow that illuminated the ground around him, as well as everything within a few dozen meters.
It was empty, not a single soul could be seen.
"Brat, if you're so confident, then come out and fight me"
The old man loosened his bow tie and stretched his arms and legs.
In the darkness.
No sound.
The old man sighed, feeling that this brat is a bit troublesome.
Not only did he not show himself, he even had helpers.
Just now, the hand that the helper placed on my forehead was truly frightening.
That hand that came from above was right when I tried to snatch the Blade from him, not too early or too late, just when I was fully focused.
Now that I think about it, the more I think about it, the more I feel that hand was filled with some kind of indescribable skill, as if it was exchanged with countless battles.
What a great skill, without using any power, without using any skills, everything returned to its original state. Just a single hand.
I've never seen such a skill in my life.
If.
That hand was replaced with a Blade.
The old man didn't dare to think about it any further.
"Perhaps we've underestimated you and your companions, then let's do this"
The old man took a deep breath, his body gave off an even brighter glow, illuminating everything around him like it was daytime.
"Come out, I'll fight you with my strongest power!"
The old man shouted.
Still no response.
But the situation seems to be a bit different.
The old man silently sensed some kind of emotion rising in his heart, silently forming a fist stance.
"Come!"
He shouted.
Still no response.
The old man was filled with killing intent, muttering in a low voice: "After all this time, you're just a coward, I'll ..."
He couldn't help but look up, his voice suddenly stopped.
In the sky.
An unknown existence had covered everything in sight.
Its body was so large, so huge, so majestic that it completely covered everything, leaning down under the illumination of the light.
The darkness split open from its body, revealing rows of sharp fangs inside.
The old man trembled, couldn't help but exclaim: "This is"
The gigantic mouth filled with sharp fangs sucked in the air.
The light around the old man's body left him, shot up to the sky, and was sucked clean by the gigantic mouth.
Inexplicably, the old man understood one thing.
Light.
It couldn't exist here.
He remained motionless and no longer emitted any light, allowing the darkness to cover everything.
Puff
A muffled sound rang out.
The old man struggled for a while, but found that he couldn't move at all. The moment he moved, he would feel an unbearable pain.
Panting heavily, he reached out to touch his chest and immediately grasped the cold and sharp blade.
A voice sounded from behind.
"Originally, I only needed to watch from the side to complete the mission, but the opportunity was too good, so I couldn't resist. Sorry."
It was that young man!
"You want to kill me?" The old man asked in a deep voice.
"No, please don't move."
As the youth spoke, he stretched out a hand and pressed it against his forehead.
Moments later.
"Ah ... so that's how it is. How troublesome."
The young man sighed and fell into deep thought.
The old man's expression changed several times before he suddenly cried out, "That's not right! Why is your hand exactly the same as the hand that pressed on my head before!"
"Who the hell are you!"
The young man's train of thought was interrupted. He simply patted the old man's shoulder and said, "Who am I? That's not important, what's important is that the Nine Serenity Soul Summoning Banner isn't ready yet, so why don't you help me out a bit? "
The old man howled: "You"
Sha!
A cold gleam of the blade flashed.
A head flew up.
The young man put the blade away, clasped his hands together, and formed a hand seal towards the head that was flying in the air.
At the very next moment.
The world of darkness quickly faded away, revealing the street outside.
"I'll leave the rest to you."
Saying so, the young man's figure turned around and disappeared together with the world of darkness.
On the street.
All that was left was a headless corpse standing where it was, and
Bam!
A head fell to the ground with a dull thud.
"That damn brat won again ..."
The three Grandmasters on the wall sighed emotionally.
The head on the ground quickly leapt up and landed among the other heads.
It opened its eyes and told the other heads: " Master has ordered us to leave immediately and tell him a certain piece of news "
"Then what are we waiting for?" one of the Martial Master heads asked.
"Let's go!" the old man's head replied.
Dozens of heads flew into the air, quickly heading in a certain direction.
The three Grandmasters had complicated expressions, not knowing whether to follow or not.
At this point, other Martial Masters gradually appeared on the streets.
"Sir!"
"Sir!"
"You have to save us!"
They hurriedly ran in front of the three Grandmasters and bowed.
"What's the matter?" the old Grandmaster with a walking stick asked.
"We've also followed the Glorious Clan's orders and secretly tried to harm the Bloodheart Sect. If that young man comes here again, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep our lives"
"Sirs, please save our lives!"
The three old men exchanged glances.
The old man with a walking stick sighed: "Let's wait for the news. Once that brat leaves, he'll probably cause a huge disaster. Who knows what will happen then"
...
At another location.
Deep in the forest.
Liu Ping stood guard in front of Chu Yunshang with his blade, looking up at the sky.
He saw a man with slicked-back hair floating in the air, holding a goblet in his hand, looking down at the two of them with a leisurely expression.
"A teenager ... To have such combat strength at such a young age, he's indeed a genius."
The man said in an appraising tone.
Liu Ping stood with his blade, his gaze falling on the goblet in the man's hand.
A line of small burning words appeared in front of his eyes:
[Polygon Space Goblet]
[This is a rare item with strange power. It can resist any attack until the attack exceeds the limit of what it can defend against.]
What?
Doesn't this world view Occult power as an evil and filthy power?
Why would a member of the Glory Family have such a rare and strange defensive tool?
Liu Ping couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Chu Yunshang whispered: "Hey, what are you thinking about?"
Liu Ping said: "I've already learned a lot about the World Spirit. Now that we're facing a great enemy, I have to think carefully and see if I can create a high-level Spiritual Saber Technique"
Chu Yunshang was stunned.
In the air, the man was also stunned.
This brat!
He wants to create a Spiritual Skill right off the bat, and he even specified a Saber Technique.
How is that possible!
Is there something wrong with his brain?
The man's expression suddenly darkened.
If there was something wrong with this young man's brain, how could he have killed so many people, deceived his subordinates, and then come to save Chu Yunshang?
In other words ...
There's nothing wrong with this young man's brain.
Since there's nothing wrong with his brain, then maybe he can really create a Saber Technique!
A mortal can actually create a Spiritual Skill!
What a terrifying thing this was!
The man's expression changed a few times. He pressed a button in his pocket and muttered to himself: "Better to be careful ..."
In the air, a cold metallic voice suddenly sounded:
"You have requested to release this time's pollution. Please specify the target."
The man stared at Liu Ping and Chu Yunshang below, gritted his teeth, and said: "Specify the two human life forms below."
He looked at Chu Yunshang with a trace of pity in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
Whether it was a beauty or a spirit, compared to killing a terrifying enemy that could threaten him, it was always better to wait in the back.
As soon as he said that.
Two balls of boiling flames suddenly flew out of the void and shot straight at Liu Ping and Chu Yunshang.
Liu Ping wanted to dodge, but in the next moment, the flames directly attached to his arm.
Lines of small burning words suddenly jumped out:
[You have been hit by some kind of 'Emergence' power]
[This' Emergence 'power contains the following rules:]
[Hit, Manifest, Indestructible]
Liu Ping glanced at it and heaved a sigh of relief.
Indeed.
This Occultism power has' Hit ',' Manifest ', and' Indestructible '.
But it has no lethality!
Why did the other party use such a move?
Liu Ping looked at the sky in confusion.
In the sky, the man with the slicked-back hair said: "Is the pollution complete?"
The cold voice said: "The pollution has been completed."
The man was overjoyed and immediately said: "Send more people here immediately and eliminate the Nightmare Fiends!"
"Yes sir."
The voice responded.
In the sky, spatial fluctuations gradually began to appear.
At this moment.
Dozens of heads descended from the sky and landed in front of Liu Ping.
The old man's head jumped out and spoke in a low voice: "Master, I have something to report, please use Soul Reading."
"Very well."
Liu Ping put his hand on his forehead.
A few moments later.
He slowly understood the entire situation.
"So that's how it is ..."
Liu Ping narrowed his eyes at the man in the sky, his expression slowly becoming filled with killing intent.
The man with the slicked-back hair didn't care at all.
He raised his goblet: "Seems like you killed my subordinate and used a Cultivation-type spell to Soul Reading, that's all the more reason I can't let you go."
"Everything is a scam, isn't it?" Liu Ping asked.
The man smiled: "That's right, the Nightmare Tide occasionally gives off some strange power, which we capture and use to create panic in the human world."
Liu Ping asked: "Who are those Nightmare Fiends?"
"Of course, they're people who dare to go against us, the upper echelons. For example, you and your little girlfriend are now infected with the power of nightmares. It doesn't matter if I bring an army to kill you, because everyone knows that I'm protecting world peace."
As the man spoke, he suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahaha, there's no such thing as a Nightmare Fiend, that's all a lie. But whoever goes against us is a Fiend that deserves to be killed!"
In the void.
Large groups of Martial Masters appeared.
Hundreds and thousands of Martial Masters stood in the void, surrounding Liu Ping and Chu Yunshang tightly.
"Is this how you rule this world ..." Liu Ping looked at the Martial Masters who were ready and said in a low voice.
The sense of danger in the man's heart finally disappeared.
He raised his goblet and gestured to Liu Ping:
"A one in a million martial arts prodigy."
"Now that you know the secret of the Glory family, you can die in peace."
He made a 'kill' gesture, and those martial artists immediately moved into action without making a sound.
They rushed towards Liu Ping and Chu Yunshang from all directions.
Chu Yunshang looked nervous. She grabbed Liu Ping's hand and whispered: "Are we going to die?"
Liu Ping patted her hand to comfort her, but his eyes were looking at the man in the air.
The man laughed loudly:
"Any last words? Or are you going to beg me to let you go? "
Liu Ping sighed: "Infecting people with strange power and making them 'Nightmare Fiends', this is indeed a good way to eliminate dissidents, but you've actually neglected a very important thing."
"What?" The man asked.
"Have you ever thought that I'm a real Nightmare Fiend?"
Liu Ping said calmly.
