If I had known I wouldn't have saved you!

Chapter 139: Getting to the bottom of things

"My lady... this man is strange. If you want to kill him, you need to think of a way..."

Lin Shiyi lowered his head and transmitted the message.

Gu Roushuang also noticed something was wrong. Why did this Nightmare Demon want to see them kill each other so much? He even swore an oath for this matter... Is he just a pervert?

"What can my husband do? Tell me about it."

Gu Roushuang also followed suit.

Seeing that the couple were discussing something, Yan Mozi was not panicked at all, but just looked at them calmly.

There have been many such cases before. Think about the last time, a couple seemed to be in love, but after hearing the vows they made, they immediately turned around and killed their lovers. As the saying goes, husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.

So the Nightmare Demon did not urge him, but just kept sneering.

Seeing that the Tribulation Fire Formation was still in operation and flames were constantly attacking Nightmare Demon, Lin Shiyi was not in a hurry. Instead, he teased, "Senior, you want to see us kill each other so much. Could it be that you were betrayed by your Taoist partner before? You like to break up a couple so much. Is it to fill the emptiness in your heart?"

Anyway, the formation of absolute extinction is still there, and Nightmare Demon has no chance of absorbing spiritual energy from the outside unless he takes drugs. Although he extinguished those flames accurately every time, they also consumed his spiritual energy to a certain extent.

Lin Shiyi's words were also based on speculation. Who would have thought that after hearing this, the Nightmare Demon's smiling face changed. He narrowed his eyes, stared at Lin Shiyi and said, "Boy, you have successfully angered me. Since you don't cherish the chance to live, I can only help you..."

As Yan Mozi finished speaking, Lin Shiyi and Gu Roushuang both felt that the coldness in the area had become heavier. Their bodies became extremely heavy, and the consumption of spiritual energy when moving also increased greatly.

"There's something strange...quickly strengthen your protective spiritual energy!"

As he spoke, Lin Shiyi quickly injected more spiritual energy into the spiritual energy shield around him, and Gu Roushuang did the same. For a moment, as the spiritual light became brighter, the resistance around the two of them decreased a lot, but they were still affected to some extent.

Unlike him and his wife, the Nightmare Demon in the center of the formation was not affected. Instead, his speed was greatly increased.

Seeing the horror on Lin Shiyi and Gu Roushuang's faces, Yan Mozi sneered and suddenly disappeared.

Lin Shiyi was shocked, but Gu Roushuang had already condensed the spiritual energy. As she pointed forward, the spiritual energy continued to gather in the Xuanwu Formation.

This was exactly the case when he faced the Queen of Flowers alone last time. The destructive power of the monster almost shattered the golden light formation. Now, this Nightmare Demon is bound to break out of the formation.

Lin Shiyi was stunned for a moment, then he understood what was going on, and then he used his spiritual energy to reinforce the Black Tortoise Formation. Sure enough, the next second, a huge impact force came from the formation, and a loud rumbling sound shook the two of them so much that their souls shook.

Fortunately, both of them practiced supreme skills, otherwise, this attack alone would be enough to seriously injure an ordinary mid-Nascent Soul cultivator.

The figure of Yan Mozi reappeared in the formation. He looked at the two people outside the formation and was surprised: "How could you resist it? And the aura of this technique...why is it so familiar? Could it be that you two are also souls descending here?"

"Soul descending?"

Lin Shiyi muttered softly and his face suddenly turned pale.

According to legend, a powerful monk can split his soul and attach the soul to a human or animal body for control.

However, the cultivation level of this split soul is often lower than that of the main soul, otherwise it will easily be attacked by the split soul. Moreover, the term "soul descent" has only been seen in the classics of the sect. It is a magical power that can only be performed by the cultivators who have reached the stage of transformation. Even if ordinary cultivators split their souls, they can only call them "clones."

Now that this Nightmare Demon has mentioned the word "soul descent", could it be that he himself is a cultivator from outside the world who has reached the stage of Divine Transformation, and this time he has only sent down a trace of his soul?

Thinking back to Zuo Lian, Lin Shiyi became more certain of this idea. She must also be the soul of a great monk, otherwise how could she suddenly become so powerful?

I just don't know if her soul will be affected after being possessed by the great monk's soul.

Coming back to his senses, Lin Shiyi pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Senior, are you also here as a spirit?"

This question-as-answer question made Yan Mozi a little dissatisfied, but he still said patiently: "Of course, I have already told your wife that I am the third disciple of the Red Refining God, Yan Mozi of the Chaos Hall. Whose souls are you two?"

Of course Lin Shiyi had no answer to Nightmare Demon's question. He had never been to the territory of the Divine Transformation cultivators, and he had no idea what the Chaos Palace was. He only knew a little about the Divine Transformation cultivators through Zuo Lian.

So he could only say tentatively: "Everyone has their own mission. We don't want to reveal our identities. How about we stop here?"

Although this Nightmare Demon was in the late Nascent Soul stage, his skills were extremely strange, and his strength had long surpassed that of ordinary late Nascent Soul cultivators. Lin Shiyi was not sure if he could defeat him if they really fought to the death. The most important thing was that the Nightmare Demon in front of him was just a fragment of his soul. If he became an enemy with him, he would definitely be hunted down by this person when he became a spirit and ascended to heaven one day.

Hearing this, Nightmare Demon lowered his eyes and said nothing. After a long while, he said with golden light in his eyes, "You are so cautious. Could it be that you two are the criminals wanted by the Palace of God?"

"What the hell...?"

Lin Shiyi didn't understand what Nightmare was talking about, but seeing his excited look, he knew that he must have misunderstood, so he quickly explained: "We are not criminals from the Shrine... We are just here to do a mission... Don't you have your own mission too? Just go and complete it quickly, and don't worry about this, okay?"

This nightmare demon was a little crazy. Sometimes he was angry, sometimes he laughed, and sometimes he was nervous. Lin Shiyi was a little confused for a while.

After hearing what Lin Shiyi said, Yan Mozi continued to ask, "Then tell me which faction you are from, and who are the powerful cultivators in your sect? It's okay if you don't want to reveal the mission, but tell me the name of your master!"

"Damn it..." Seeing this, Lin Shiyi couldn't answer and could only curse, silently reciting the Falling Star Sword Technique. In an instant, under the power of the second level sword technique, the surrounding spiritual energy gathered towards him frantically and reached saturation in the blink of an eye.

Seeing the monstrous sword energy coming down like a huge wave, Yan Mozi was still in a daze. Not only him, but Gu Roushuang was also confused. They were still talking in the last second, and they started fighting in the next second?

Her husband...isn't he a bit shameless...

However, even though she complained in her heart, Gu Roushuang still recited the sword techniques and prepared for the next round of attack.

It was not until the sword energy hit the top of his head that Nightmare Demon reacted. In shock and anger, he quickly raised his hands above his head. Immediately, the cold and gloomy air in the area gathered in front of him, forming a black shield.
