Chapter 164 The Black Mist is Coming
"Indeed, after crossing the bridge, I discovered this problem after walking for a while. Therefore, my usual fighting method is no longer useful. I need someone to cover me. Compared with my long-range attack methods, hand-to-hand combat is what I am least good at."
In response to Yunlin's questions, Cao Ling nodded calmly and admitted his purpose of seeking cooperation with Yunlin.
Yunlin was horrified to find that thick black fog had appeared behind them at some point. Due to his previous encounter with the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, he now always had some psychological fear of the black fog.
But he quickly calmed down and allowed the mist to swallow him and Cao Ling together.
"How is it that you feel uncomfortable?"
Although the black fog did not look very thick, after being swallowed, Yunlin found that the fog had an extremely alarming interference effect on his vision. Unless he used the Purple Spirit Pupil, he could not see anything with his vision. Even if Cao Ling was right next to him, he could not feel his presence at all.
"It's okay. I just feel like I can't see anything. If you hadn't spoken, I would have suspected that you were swept away by the mist."
Cao Ling's voice sounded at the side. Yun Lin could indeed see him with his Purple Spiritual Pupil. However, after scanning the surroundings with his Purple Spiritual Pupil, Yun Lin silently closed his Purple Spiritual Pupil.
"Be careful. Although we are still not sure whether the fog is a means of attack by others or a natural phenomenon, it is best to be vigilant in this situation. I will keep my mouth shut, and you should try not to make any noise. Listen carefully to any sounds around you."
After saying this, Yunlin took the Bridge of Immortals and Mortals back in his hand, and then slowly walked to the side of a black shadow.
He swung his sword without hesitation, but the sword just passed directly across the shadow's face, as if he was hitting the air.
"How could this be?"
While Yunlin was still in a daze, the figure raised the sickle in his hand and chopped down at Yunlin. Yunlin used the Bridge of Immortals to block the attack and easily blocked it, but a hole was torn in his clothes around his waist, and a trace of blood slowly flowed out along the wound.
"Yunlin, are you still there?"
Cao Ling, who was standing by, heard the sound and couldn't help but ask Yunlin. Yunlin simply said at this moment: "Be careful in the fog, there is something attacking me."
After saying this, he swung the sword again, but just like before, it just swept past the black shadow's body and the sickle appeared in front of Yunlin.
(How could this happen? Purple Spiritual Eyes can see through the fog and can clearly see its attack, but its attack was clearly blocked, so why do I still have wounds on my body?)
Having barely dodged the attack, Yunlin did not make any more rash moves. The appearance of the fog was very strange, and the monster inside was equally strange. However, what made Yunlin feel relieved was that there seemed to be only this one monster at the moment.
When several phantom swords appeared above the monster's head, they did not stab down like before, but instead stayed in the air, as if they could not find their target.
"It's really weird. Even the phantom sword is ineffective."
This was the first time since the Phantom Sword was developed that the Phantom Sword failed. Yun Lin didn't know the specific reason, but the shadow on the opposite side didn't give him any time to think, and the next moment he swung his sickle at him again.
Just like before, Yunlin dodged the attack once before, but his clothes were still torn, but there were no wounds.
"I can't find any pattern. And there are only two people here, why are they only attacking me? Could it be because of the purple spiritual pupil?"
After taking a look at Cao Lingyun who had been staying in the same place without moving, Lin began to murmur in his heart. He had thought that it was caused by some invisible attack, but he was able to dodge the attack and not suffer any harm, which meant that it should be the attack effect of the black shadow in front of him. However, he had clearly dodged it before, so why were his clothes torn again?
The gray shadow floated in front of Yun Ling again and swung the sickle again. This time, Yun Ling also made a counterattack, but the target was no longer the body, but the sickle in his hand.
puff.
The sound of wood colliding was heard in the black fog, and Yunlin's heart trembled slightly, but it was not fear, but rather some excitement.
"This is the real body. The black shadow you saw should just be something like an illusion."
With a guess in his mind, Yunlin's attacks kept falling on the sickle, making a sound like a glass ball falling on a table. It seemed very noisy in the quiet black fog, but Cao Lin on the side seemed to have not heard it and stayed quietly where he was.
After attacking for a while, Yunlin retreated, looking at the undamaged sickle, his brows slightly raised. The previous attacks were all covered with sword intent, but if it was a piece of wood, it would have been cut off at the first contact. However, after enduring so many attacks, not a trace was left.
Looking back, Yunlin saw Cao Ling as if he heard nothing. He began to wonder in his heart. Logically speaking, with such a big commotion just now, it is impossible for him to have no reaction at all. But it seemed as if it heard nothing. This made Yunlin wonder if he was seeing an illusion. But after touching his waist which was still bleeding, he dismissed the idea. If it was an illusion, it was impossible for it to be so realistic.
But when he saw the blood in his hand and looked at his waist, Yunlin was stunned. After such a period of time under the influence of his spiritual power, the bleeding should have stopped, and even the wound should have healed. But now, the wound on his waist was still bleeding, and there was no reason for the bleeding to stop.
"Impossible, it's just a little scrape, the vein shouldn't be cut, how could there be so much blood flowing out?"
While dodging the attack of the phantom black shadow, Yun Lin mobilized a part of his spiritual energy and attached it to his waist. However, to his surprise, even though the spiritual energy directly covered the wound, the bleeding still showed no sign of stopping and there was no sign of healing.
"This is impossible. How could there be so much blood flowing all the time?"
Surprised at the situation, Yunlin blurted out this sentence directly, but what surprised him even more was that after he said this, Cao Ling beside him seemed not to hear it, as if he had fallen into a coma at this moment.
