I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 47
[Chapter 47 City God!]
This time, on the trip to the ghost city, Kong Ning gained a lot.
Not only did he kill the target that the mysterious black tank had found for him, but he also picked up a spirit-suppressing sword with restraint against ghosts, and killed a purple evil ghost who was not lowly on the road.
Now in Kong Ning’s body, the cold spiritual power brought by killing ghosts is combined with the demon power brought by killing demons.
In terms of Taoism, it has reached the realm of one hundred and thirty-five years.
The strength has almost doubled!
You must know that when he entered, the cultivation base only had ninety years of Taoism.
It really is the pursuit of wealth.
The current self, even alone, can probably kill the monsters in the Xu residence.
As long as he goes back for some repairs, integrates the newly absorbed spiritual power into himself and completely digests it, this trip to the ghost city will be considered a complete achievement.
Standing on the Qingban Bridge, Kong Ning felt it in his heart, and according to Yujian’s method in the “Qiongguang Sword Canon”, he put the black Zhenling Sword into his dantian.
This spirit-suppressing sword of unknown material is actually a good spirit sword.
Otherwise, ordinary weapons cannot be put into the dantian.
This was the first time Kong Ning had come into contact with a spirit tool, and he started playing with curiosity.
It was a lot of fun to keep the dark Zhenling Sword in the dantian and summon it again.
The girl behind him spread out a sword formation to seal the entrance to the ghost market. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief and said.
“Okay,” Wan’er said, “Ning Zhaotou, the entrance to the ghost market has disappeared. We can go back.”
The girl pointed at the sword and pinched the sword, and the ancient sword with the broad body turned into a sword light and fell into the scabbard on her back.
Kong Ning, who just took the Zhenling Sword back into his dantian, nodded and said, “Then let’s leave it.”
The killing of ghosts is over, and it is time for Kong Ning to go home.
The two agreed to say goodbye and separated on the stone bridge.
The Tian family’s abandoned house where the girl was located was nearby, not too far away.
Locust Lane, where Kong Ning’s house is located, is farther away.
However, after Kong Ning jumped directly onto the nearest roof, he ran on the eaves of the county town, and his speed was not slow.
In the county seat, there is still a strong smell of fireworks brought by burning paper.
This smell will not dissipate until after noon tomorrow.
Kong Ning ran under the darkness of night, leaping silently from room to room, and soon came to the avenue in the city.
At this moment, he saw a strange picture.
On the avenues in the city full of silhouettes, there are dark silhouettes standing or kneeling on both sides of the road, all of them are residents of the county.
In front of them, the ashes of burning yellow paper were already cold.
The cold night wind blew, and the ashes danced wildly on the long street, slapping everyone’s bodies.
However, those who were standing on the side of the street and at the end of the alley and seemed to be still burning paper were all motionless.
Even if the yellow paper in front of them had already burned out, not even a trace of fire was visible, only cold ashes remained.
These people still kept the action of burning paper.
There were even people squatting beside the ashes, reaching out as if to add yellow paper to the ashes.
In the Shanlan County town under the night, there were a series of stiff and motionless figures standing silently like this.
In the darkness, it was eerie, silent, and strangely infiltrating.
Kong Ning’s scalp felt numb in an instant, and he quickly disappeared into the dark.
What is this… what’s the situation?
!
It was already so late, why didn’t these people go home?
They all stood still… What kind of sorcery did they fail?
But Kong Ning looked around, and all the figures on the entire long street were motionless, like a frozen picture.
If it weren’t for the ashes dancing wildly in the night wind, he almost suspected that he had walked into a frozen space and time.
This is the Zhongyuan Night in Shanlan County?
Every year, Kong Ning, who goes to bed as soon as it gets dark during the Mid-Autumn Festival, sees the county seat of the Mid-Autumn Festival for the first time after the third watch and in the second half of the night.
What’s going on with the people in this city?
Why doesn’t everything move?
Kong Ning hid in the dark and kept running forward.
However, wherever they went, on the streets and alleys, all the people were frozen in the action of burning paper, and no one moved!
Kong Ning, who was running in the dark, became more and more terrified.
At this moment, he finally knew why the county town was so quiet tonight.
——The living people in the whole city have been immobilized, how could it be so lively!
But who set them up?
Monsters in the city?
And what is the point of immobilizing all these mortals in place?
Kong Ning was terrified and stopped running to Huaishu Lane, trying to turn around to find Wan’er.
However, just as he crossed the avenue in the middle of the county seat, a gloomy gale suddenly descended from the sky and enveloped the entire county seat.
In the gust of wind, countless fallen leaves, dust, and gravel danced wildly, making people almost unable to open their eyes.
But compared to this sudden gust of wind, what made Kong Ning even more terrified was the terrifying aura that suddenly appeared above the sky.
Cold, violent, evil…
In the night sky of Shanlan County, it seemed to be torn apart by some kind of evil and powerful existence.
A powerful and terrifying ghostly aura that made Kong Ning’s scalp numb, descended on the entire county town.
The moment he raised his head in astonishment, what he saw was countless bleak green lights rushing out of the dark night sky.
That dense green light turned out to be the paper lanterns I saw in the ghost market before?
Kong Ning was stunned, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com subconsciously wanted to summon the Zhenling Sword in his dantian for self-defense.
But at the next moment, something even weirder happened.
After the dense, miserable green light poured out from the emptiness of darkness, it instantly filled the sky of Shanlan County.
Standing on the ground and looking at it, there seems to be a strange green cloud floating in the sky.
Then the green lights squiggled quickly.
Finally, a huge, translucent giant hand stretched out from the green light.
Just the length of a finger is far more than ten meters!
And this is just the beginning.
After the huge arm stretched out, it was followed by the body, the spiritual suit, and a pitch-black scabbard that was too large to penetrate!
A terrifying evil spirit wearing a robe and hundreds of meters tall climbed out of the green light.
On its body, it is clothed in the robe of a city god, and its hideous face, but it is young and fangs, infiltrating evil.
The huge translucent left hand was holding a pale green wat board.
His right hand was holding an empty pitch-black scabbard.
The moment it descended to the county seat, the huge evil spirit roared up to the sky.
A ferocious, cold and gloomy death aura filled the city in an instant.
The city wall of Shanlan County, at the foot of this huge evil spirit, was as low as a child’s plaything.
At the highest point of the city wall, it was not as high as the knees of an evil spirit.
The huge evil spirit standing in the low-rise buildings, roaring in the sky, came to the world like a legendary terrifying giant.
Everything in the field of vision is as small as ants under its feet.
Kong Ning’s brain is even more blank.
The huge shocking emotion made him speechless for a while.
This thing… is the city god of Shanlan County?
!
The robes on it are clearly the same as the Chenghuang clay sculpture in the Chenghuang Temple!
