Self-destruction is no small matter.

This decision was not made by Gu Xia in a rush.

She didn't really want to die, so she did it because she had a plan in mind.

With the Dream Pot, Gu Xia was sure that his soul would remain intact. As long as the cultivator's spirit was still there, it was not difficult for him to take over another body.

But the idea of ​​possessing another's body was still a bit too advanced for Gu Xia.

I declined.

Apart from the method of possessing another's body, you can actually use some treasures from heaven and earth to reshape your body.

However, if one wants to ensure that the body can be reshaped without any mistakes, the requirements for the treasure are quite strict.

As luck would have it, Gu Xia suddenly remembered that she seemed to have such a good thing in her hand.

——Phoenix blood essence.

The drop of phoenix blood that was obtained by accident is said to have the effect of rebirth.

Now it is in Gu Xia's hands.

With such a treasure in hand, she was sure that she would not die even if she self-destructed.

Actually, this is all thanks to the will of heaven.

Gu Xia thought about it carefully and found that Tiandao had appeared when she obtained the Phoenix Blood Essence. Now when she really needed to use it, Tiandao still did not forget to show up to make his presence felt.

what is this?

Do you refresh NPCs regularly?

Gu Xia couldn't help but want to complain.

It was not until this moment that she finally understood what Tiandao meant by his previous words.

The solution to the problem lies solely with her?

Understood.

Does that mean you want her to die right away?

No wonder he had specially tried to get himself into the Land of the Fallen. It turned out that he had known that she would be useful to him.

Although, I still feel a little unhappy.

Gu Xia didn't really want to thank the other party.

After all, even with the Phoenix blood, she had truly died once.

She never wanted to experience that feeling again in her life.

It’s nothing, it just hurts.

Gu Xia thought that he was a very tolerant person.

But the moment the shadow of death loomed over her, it was far more painful than when she had previously struggled under the Demon Lord.

Heaven has a good plan.

He arranged everything without even showing up.

Gu Xia couldn't help but want to curse "dog heaven" again.

But then I thought, the heart of Heaven is smaller than a needle. If the other party gets angry and sends down a thunderbolt from heaven, we will be finished.

She only has a soul now, not even a physical body.

If she were to be hit like this again, she would probably die instantly without even needing the Phoenix Blood.

As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes.

Gu Xia felt that he was not a coward, he was just following his heart.

Fortunately, she had a life-saving method to cover her, so she felt at ease and boldly chose to self-destruct.

This is by far the simplest method.

On the one hand, he could take the opportunity to break the formation and send Xie Baiyi and all her belongings away, and on the other hand, he could also temporarily scare Qu Yimian away.

How can you survive if you self-destruct?

By then everyone will think she is really dead, which will be beneficial to her next actions.

Qu Yimian's previous method of using the mantis to stalk the cicada while the oriole waits behind was indeed very good. He had fooled all five sects. In that case, Gu Xia didn't mind borrowing it.

I believe she won't mind if I give her a taste of her own medicine, right?

As for why he didn't greet Xie Baiyi first...

It’s not that Gu Xia hasn’t thought about this problem, but it’s obvious that this person’s acting skills are really terrible.

Trying to deceive those people outside is even more of a problem.

Just in case, she chose not to do so.

After all, if you want to deceive Qu Yimian and the demons, you naturally have to deceive your own people first.

I’m sorry, brothers.

Gu Xia rarely apologized sincerely to the others.

But if nothing unexpected happens, once she appears in front of them alive and kicking, she will most likely be met with a beating.

"..."

amount.

I should first find a place to think about how to rebuild my body.

Now she only has her soul left, and it would be bad if she encountered any danger.

the other side.

Several sect leaders finally found an opportunity. Sect Leader Lin stepped on the center of the formation and the spiritual power in his body stopped losing.

The Demon Lord had already been severely injured. Taking advantage of the moment when his spiritual power surged, the two sword cultivators attacked together. All the demons blocking the way turned into black mist and disappeared into the air with screams.

Under the two equally sharp sword energies, the Demon Lord was killed on the spot.

Before he died, his eyes dilated unwillingly, his eyeballs bulging almost popping out.

But in the end, there was nothing that could be done.

During this period, the Demon King was not really just watching from the sidelines. It was just that when Fang Jinxing and Sect Master Qin drew their swords at the same time, even he had to temporarily avoid the sharp edge.

Compared to him, the two of them focused entirely on the breakthrough point of the Demon Lord. They knew very well that if a critical moment really came, the Demon King would never take the risk to help the other party.

as predicted.

Between helping his plastic ally or protecting himself, the Demon King chose the latter without hesitation.

The evil formation was broken, and the evil spirits that were originally filled with murderous energy also dissipated.

Sect Master Yun sighed slightly.

Even if the culprit has been dealt with, those who have died will never come back.

Sect Master Lin's tone was filled with emotion. "Come to think of it, I don't know who did good deeds without leaving a name. If the half soul that the Demon Lord had separated from him had not been destroyed, I'm afraid we might not have been able to kill him today."

The stalemate between the demons and the world of cultivation has lasted for thousands of years. Doesn't the Demon Lord want to kill their sect leaders, or do they not want to kill the Demon Lord and put an end to it all?

How can it be?

There is only one word to describe it: difficult.

The battles between powerful beings are not so easy to determine the winner, so no matter whether it is a cultivator, a demon or a monster, no matter how much friction there is among the people below, the person who is really in charge can only maintain a superficial balance.

For example, monsters are cruel by nature and enjoy eating humans, so they will be killed by monks accordingly.

The demon cultivators were no less eager, with an overwhelming desire to kill, steal treasures and destroy. When they encountered the relatives, it was natural that they would fight to the death.

In the world of cultivation, the strong are respected. This sentence naturally applies to the other two races as well. Victory or failure depends on the strength of each other.

In other words, it is very simple: whoever has the harder fist will survive.

And those who have reached the level of Demon Lord are even more difficult to deal with.

When the great men in the Tribulation Crossing Stage fight each other, the battles are often earth-shattering. Not to mention all the creatures within a thousand miles on the ground, even the space can be torn apart when they really fight. Basically, it is difficult to determine the winner even after fighting for ten days or half a month.

I didn't expect that this time good luck would favor the world of cultivation.

After this battle, the demons have completely lost their ability to overcome tribulations, and will surely suffer severe damage in the future.

"I don't know which fellow Daoist did it?" Sect Leader Lin still believed that it might be some powerful person who had been in seclusion for many years. "If you know, you must thank him sincerely."

As he spoke, he pinched his fingers together and a formation containing a purifying aura lit up, enveloping the souls of those who had died tragically.

They, the Taoist sect, do not know the Buddhist methods of salvation, but they have their own ways.

Although these resentful souls cannot enter reincarnation again, their evil spirits should be cleansed before they completely dissipate.

Come clean and leave clean.

However, Sect Master Lin did not know that it was Gu Xia who solved the problem of half of the Demon Lord's soul, otherwise he would have been jealous.

He was still thinking about it, and the word "fellow Taoist" that came out of his mouth successfully raised Gu Xia's seniority.

If Gu Xia heard his words at this moment, he would lift up his non-existent tail and show off a few times.

After the Demon Lord was killed, the Demon King was the only one left. Naturally, he had no chance of winning against several sect leaders. He couldn't help but curse the Demon Lord for dying with his eyes open.

"waste!"

It can only be said that on this point, the leaders of the two tribes are surprisingly in sync.

They all firmly believe that the other party is a waste.

Although he was simple-minded, he was not a fool, so he naturally did not intend to fight against five sect leaders alone.

As for the lives of the remaining demon cultivators, what does it have to do with him?

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Demon King fled away after being slashed by Fang Jinxing several times.

If he wanted to leave, naturally no one could stop him, and there was no need to stop him.

The few remaining big demons were no match for them, and many of the demon cultivators who approached later were dealt with by Gu Lanyi and the other two who were squatting outside.

The young man drew the bow and arrow, pressed down slightly, and the arrow pierced the opponent's body like a meteor.

His previous thoughts turned out to be correct. Although he couldn't enter the formation to help his masters, it was still very useful to observe the moves between those powerful men.

His comprehension was naturally very high, and it didn't take long for him to feel the loosening of his realm, so he stayed behind to support his two junior brothers.

It is naturally more convenient to fight under a large-scale rain of arrows than to fight at close range with a sword.

Seeing movement in the formation not far away, Gu Lanyi looked up and saw the figures of the sect leaders appear one after another.

He did not miss the Demon King's escaping figure, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

My nerves, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed a little.
