Yuan Qing's swordsmanship was very good, not inferior to his knowledge, and he was even more elusive to the enemy in the dark.

But he found that the young man who didn't seem to have much experience seemed to be able to easily judge the path of his attack.

It had been almost a year since he last met Zuo Qoutian. At that time, the man told him that this man named Li Rui would become a serious problem sooner or later, and he must be eliminated if there was a chance.

At that time, Cen Lanjing was still alive, and Yuan Qing didn't know how to fulfill this request. He found it very difficult.

But a few months later, when he learned that his master had been attacked and killed, he finally realized that he had regrets in his heart.

It's just that the matter has come to this, and there is no use regretting it. When the day comes when the world is unified, Master's spirit in heaven will definitely understand him.

No matter what, Yuan Qing became the most influential person in the academy by virtue of his long-standing reputation and his status as a close disciple of Cen Lanjing.

He felt that he should be able to complete what Zuo Qoutian secretly asked him to do.

But for some reason, after meeting the man named Li Rui, he felt uneasy. He didn't know the source of this emotion, but he just felt that he might miss.

Along the way, he kept deducing the possibility of things happening, and several times he even planned to make a sneak attack while he was on the way.

But whenever the idea first arises, he will feel a warning sign in his heart, and finally give up.

In fact, this kind of giving up is completely correct. During those few times on the way, if the evil thoughts persisted for a moment, Li Rui would find that this could be said to be an invisible confrontation between the two people's perception abilities.

Even now, whenever Yuan Qing draws his sword in the dark, Li Rui can feel it in advance and find a way to dodge.

Li Rui gave up the plan of fighting the opponent head-on. He used Thunder Flash to distance himself, and then used the spells he was good at to counterattack.

However, Yuan Qing is also a world NPC. It can even be said that his hard power is stronger than Li Rui, and he should be around level 70.

Moreover, he also has the same methods as those other strong men, so that the powerful attacks can be condensed into an extremely restrained state.

Li Rui felt that it should be something that can only be understood at level 70 or so.

Converged attacks have stronger penetrating power. For example, the Dutian Great Thunder Fire Seal Curse has a very wide range, but the damage is diluted in this wide range. If it can be concentrated, it will definitely be more efficient.

Only when Zhuomanjun deliberately arranged a large-area formation like Lord Zhuoman did before, would he use his true nature to launch a massive offensive.

No matter what, Li Rui now doesn't have Cheng Mingyue to assist him, so he has no good way to defeat Yuan Qing. However, he has many life-saving methods and will not be defeated for a while.

There was another burst of explosions, and Li Rui used the Void Flame Technique to offset a burst of fast swords.

Then he discovered a serious problem. In the darkness, he couldn't feel his direction, and now he no longer knew where he was.

At the same time, the sword intent coming towards him became more intense.

If it was the gentle drizzle of spring before, now it is the violent storm of summer.

Li Rui didn't dare to be careless and directly activated the Yin and Yang reversal and various status skills to deal with those fatal sword lights.

There was sword rain on one side and thunder on the other. The intersection of the two made the originally silent darkness extremely noisy.

Li Rui didn't know what Yuan Qing wanted, but he felt the pressure was increasing. Although he had already activated the reversal of yin and yang, he still had a slight disadvantage.

If he were a few levels higher, the outcome might really be uncertain.

Now, he could only fight and retreat to avoid dying on the spot.

But just after he retreated an unknown distance, the offensive suddenly stopped, and the surroundings became silent again.

Li Rui was cautious for a while and did not feel any danger. He knew that this was because he might have stepped into a more dangerous place.

Perhaps Yuan Qing planned to force him into a theoretical death spot from the beginning.

Li Rui opened the Netherworld Light Ring again, but found that it could not illuminate the darkness around him, indicating that the source of the darkness was of a higher level.

Faced with this situation, he activated the Heart Sutra of Thunder in the Sky, and the golden divine thunder emitted a faint light. Although it could not shine too far, it was also an upper realm thunder method. It was enough to provide a small amount of vision, which was at least better than nothing.

Li Rui used this meager light to start trying to find his way back.

However, he soon discovered that there were no markers in the darkness, as if it was just a slightly poured wasteland. There were no trees, stones, or grass. There was only emptiness here.

He lowered his head and walked as high as possible up the hillside, but after walking around for a long time, he still couldn't see the end, and the battle just now seemed to have left no trace.

It seems that what Yuan Qing said is not entirely a lie. This place is like an enhanced version of the ghost hitting the wall. He can only wander around in the darkness of nothing.

After Li Rui determined that he couldn't go out on his own, he changed his mind. He had to find the other two people first.

Normally, it is very difficult to do this. After all, everyone's situation is similar. He can't find the way, and neither can others.

But for Li Rui, he has an advantage that others don't have, that is, he has mastered three thunder methods.

So he cast a Dutian Great Thunder Fire Seal spell on the darkness in front of him.

The momentum of this thunder is quite astonishing. If you are in a normal place, you can see the thunder striking down from a long distance away.

And here, even if it is blocked by darkness, even if there is some faint light, it will be very conspicuous.

After he cast the skill, he didn't wander around, but repeated it every few seconds, which was equivalent to creating a lighthouse. If Cheng Mingyue and Guan Gui were here, they would definitely be able to see it.

While he was using his skills, he was silently counting the seconds in his mind. After about two thousand seconds, which was more than half an hour, finally, another breath approached.

Li Rui did not immediately speak out to identify himself, but held his breath and concentrated, ready to deal with danger at any time.

"Ouch"

A low growl came from the darkness, followed by the sound of a weapon tapping.

Three long, three short and three long.

"Brother Gui?" Li Rui finally asked.

"it's me."

Guan Gui's voice came from the darkness.

Both of them cautiously tested for a while before revealing their identities.

When Li Rui approached the source of the sound and illuminated it with divine thunder, he felt very impressed.

Guan Gui didn't have a divine thunder to illuminate, but he could summon a large number of resurrected beings. He let these resurrected things pull each other and form a rope, and he could follow the rope forward, making sure not to take detours in the darkness. , just followed the light all the way to find it.

"Brother Gui, did you meet Sister Yue on the road?"

"No."

Guan Gui said, "She will protect herself."

Li Rui is actually worried about this issue too.

The darkness here is not because there is no light, but because something representing "death" is blocking it. Even if you shout loudly, you can't travel far.

Under such circumstances, if Cheng Mingyue chooses to hide herself as much as possible for safety, it will be harder to find her. (End of chapter)
