Chapter 865 Above the Stone Gate (please vote for the super large chapter)

boom--

With a violent roar, overlapping shadows separated from behind the rickety figure. They wore the same hood, had a thin figure, and waved a huge scythe like a shadow.

"ah--"

Sharp whistling echoed in the silent darkness, these surging black shadows flew in the sky like crows, and the howling wind blew past the burning torches on both sides.

With a soft "bang" sound, the blazing torch suddenly went out, and the whole world once again fell into deep darkness.

The green lantern spread out an icy glow, like a small circle, enclosing a land illuminated by the light.

"Follow me."

He Ao's eyes were slightly focused, and he took a step forward, ignoring the roar echoing around him, and crashed directly into the darkness in front of him.

Kavina immediately took a step forward, following behind He Ao, and Como moved forward side by side with her.

A bright green light illuminates the darkness, like a moving spotlight passing over the ground and moving forward rapidly.

"Ahhhh!!!"

With a sharp scream, a black shadow suddenly rushed out of the darkness and attacked He Ao.

He Aoti raised his sword and cut off the black shadow's body instantly.

The decayed bones were scattered in the light for an instant, and then fell into the darkness.

Similar to undead, but not exactly undead.

These black shadows are stronger than the black shadows that just attacked He Ao outside. Their overall attack power has reached C level, but their defense power is extremely weak. However, due to the characteristics of the spirit body, ordinary physical weapons may not do much harm to them.

However, He Ao has rich experience in dealing with such spiritual monsters. When he saw these flying black shadows, He Ao directly covered the bone sword with his spiritual consciousness.

Divine consciousness can harm spiritual bodies.

These black shadows should not be able to leave the castle, otherwise the people behind the scenes would have released these black shadows to attack the evacuating people.

Sharp screams echoed in the silent darkness again, and a black figure flew out from the left, wielding a huge scythe, and cut Como on the back left.

Como immediately raised his sleeves and threw out two black sticks, blocking them in front of him.

However, after the black sickle touched the stick, it was not blocked by the stick. Instead, it passed through the stick like a phantom and cut Como's neck.

puff--

He Ao returned his sword and pierced the black shadow's body.

"They have spiritual qualities."

As the decayed bones were scattered into the darkness, He Ao withdrew his bone sword and quickly reminded him.

"Um."

Como was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, and obediently shrank into a position between He Ao and Kaweina.

He is the weakest among the three, and he has no way to attack the spirit body. The best solution is to be careful, save yourself and not cause trouble to He Ao.

Kavina, who was standing at the end, raised her head and glanced at Como who suddenly intervened. She pulled away a little and got closer, without saying anything more.

The three of them maintained this sandwich formation, moving forward quickly like spikes piercing the darkness.

Those black shadows, or those standing behind the black shadows, did not seem to expect that He Ao would choose such a rapid advance tactic. A large number of black shadows that attacked He Ao were left behind by the three of them after a simple stagger.

.

Although there are still black shadows rushing out of the darkness ahead, but compared to the total amount of black shadows, they are already very few.

Even these 'small' numbers of black shadows were still densely packed like disturbed bats in a bat cave. They quickly rushed into the green light, and then were shattered by Heao's bone sword, or stabbed by Kavina's darts.

wear.

In front of them, more and more dense black shadows spread out, seeming to fill the entire darkness. Their bodies pressed down like a tide, blocking the green light. For a moment, it seemed as if the tentacles of darkness were shrinking inwards, completely blocking them.

Got the light.

"shorten the distance!"

He Ao waved the bone sword and shouted softly.

Como raised his head, looked forward, and immediately moved forward, blocking the gap between the two of them. Kavina followed closely, and the distance between the three of them became one step closer.

At this time, Kavina raised her head and looked at He Ao's back.

"ah!!!"

Accompanied by a piercing scream, two black shadows bypassed the edge of He Ao's sword light, broke into the rear of He Ao, and attacked Kavina and Como behind.

Kavina quickly raised the dart and pierced the black shadow near her, but another black shadow rushed out from the blind spot of her vision and struck Como in the middle.

Como immediately raised his swing stick and tried to move sideways, but it was already too late. The black shadow was several times faster than his reaction, and it arrived in front of him in an instant.

At this time, the front of He Ao was filled with dense black shadows, and the pure white sword light was completely blocked, making it almost impossible to make any movements to support him.

But at this last moment, of course Como also saw all this. He stared at the black figure that was close to him, stared at the skeleton under the dark hood that was almost close to his cheek, and held his breath.

The footsteps of death are sometimes so sudden.

The already rapid heartbeat began to beat even more violently, like some kind of call from the depths of hell, urgent and desperate.

puff--

Along with the sharp sound of piercing into the body, the dark broad sword penetrated from above his shoulder, instantly piercing the black figure approaching him.

The world seemed to become so silent, and Como suddenly woke up as the rotten body that was broken into two sections melted in front of him.

Moist cold sweat filled his body, and he could even feel the coat clinging to his back.

"Stay alert and follow closely."

Accompanied by violent breathing, the dark broadsword was pulled out from Como's head. The young man's calm and somewhat cold voice was like the most powerful and gentle call, awakening Como from the fear of death.

Como opened his mouth and looked up at the back of the young man in front of him. He wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

Finally, he took a step forward and followed closely behind He Ao.

Kavina, who was standing at the end, also quickened her pace and looked up at the broad sword in He Ao's hand in front of her.

At this moment, He Ao was holding a bone sword in one hand and a broad sword in the other, tilting the left and right at a certain arc, like a sharp knife moving forward, quickly inserting into the depths of the night.

The broad sword is longer than the bone sword, so sometimes, Kavina can even feel the sharp sword edge sweeping past her side.

She lowered her eyebrows slightly and did not speak. Instead, she tightened her grip on the lantern and followed the two of them closely.

And He Ao also tightened his grip on the broadsword and did not explain any more.

This broad sword was obtained from the corpse of a strong martial artist in the underground palace last time he was in the underground palace. Although it is very hard and can break through B-level defenses, it is not essentially a powerful extraordinary item.

So it can be placed in a pirate treasure chest.

And as He Ao took out his broadsword, the surrounding black shadows became more and more crazy, and He Ao's pace quickly accelerated.

Kavina held the lantern in her hand and looked to her side. Everything around them had been covered by darkness. The overlapping black shadows were almost as rich as ink, blocking all the light and covering the light of the lantern.

Only around them.

She kept throwing darts to kill the shadows coming from behind.

Although a lot of things happened just now, it all actually happened in a very short period of time. He Ao's speed hardly slowed down, and even became faster and faster, leaving a large number of black shadows behind.

And He Ao's tactics were obviously very effective. They were probably very close to the 'Stone Gate' they just saw, and close to the rickety figure standing in front of the Stone Gate.

When the enemy's attack reaches its most violent peak, it often means that they are very close to the most critical position.

At this time, the rickety figure in front of the stone gate finally realized that this level of attack could not stop He Ao. He completely changed his tactics and directly piled up a large number of black shadows.

The thick black shadow was like a dark wall blocking He Ao's front. Every time He Ao chopped one, a new black shadow would instantly fill it up, making his forward speed slower and slower.

As their speed slowed down, the black shadow that they had "thrown away" behind them when they rushed in quickly was quickly turning around.

The twisted and overlapping black shadows were attacking them. At first, Kavina, who was standing at the end, could turn her back and face behind her, relying on her own darts to block the black shadows coming from behind. But soon, these black shadows were

Shadow has exceeded the 'limit' that she can bear.

More and more black shadows began to break through her defense, attacking the three of them from behind, and then were chopped into pieces by He Ao's swirling sword light.

Even with two swords in his hands, such a black shadow was somewhat beyond He Ao's ability to deal with.

"Which department?!"

Kavina quickly turned around, glanced at He Ao, and shouted quickly.

At this moment, He Ao's progress almost stopped completely. Those thick black shadows let out a sharp scream and stood in front of He Ao with almost no fear of death, using their companions as shields to delay He Ao's movements.

As the black shadow behind He Ao continued to gather, the pressure he could bear became greater and greater, further slowing down his advancement.

He Ao did not respond to Kavina, but looked up at the black shadow in front of him.

The black shadow barrier in front of me has become thicker and thicker.

Under the strangulation of these overlapping C-level shadows, even a normal B-level strong man would be consumed alive.

In terms of strength, these overlapping black shadows are a 'B-level' skill.
