Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 473 Backtracking
"Gu Xu, since when did you start to doubt me?"

"Since I saw you for the first time on the Naihe Bridge, I haven't fully trusted you. And all the clues you showed after that made me firmly believe that you have evil intentions."

"As expected of the person I chose, your thoughtfulness and fighting talent are really amazing. If I met you when I was in the upper world, I would definitely use all my resources to train you—"

"—and then use the power of 'reign' to make me a slave to you, right?"

"..."

Gu Xu and Emperor Ziwei chatted with each other, but the attack of the spirit and soul did not stop for a moment.Between the starlight and the flames, there is a very dangerous situation, if you are not careful, you will be doomed.

Gu Xu broke free from control and launched a counterattack, which really surprised Emperor Ziwei.

But Emperor Ziwei is an old monster who has lived for thousands of years after all. He has fought in the Upper Realm for many years, has knowledge and experience far beyond ordinary people, and has countless experience in dealing with "accidents".

He is chatting with Gu Xu now, not because he is the villain who "died too much" in stories, but because he hopes to distract Gu Xu's attention with words, so as to find someone who can launch a winning blow. Opportunity.

A few seconds later, he silently cast the authority of "Time".

As a powerful man who once dominated the upper realm, the "Time" in Emperor Ziwei's hands is naturally much stronger than Gu Xu's.

It can not only pause time, speed up the flow of time, but also go back in time.

Although the time it can go back is extremely short, it is enough to help Emperor Ziwei make up for his previous negligence, thus turning the tide of the battle.

In an instant, Xinghui and Lieyan began to flow in opposite directions, returning to the palms of Emperor Ziwei and Gu Xu respectively.

The conversation between the two, like rewinding a tape, turned into a buzzing noise of unknown meaning.

Gu Xu quickly returned to the position where he first launched a surprise attack on Emperor Ziwei.

But Emperor Ziwei, who went back in time, was already prepared.

Before Gu Xu could take any action, he used starlight as a chain to block all directions around Gu Xu in advance, imprisoning his soul power.

There was a surprised look on Gu Xu's face.

After Emperor Ziwei used the authority of "Time", almost all the memories of the past in his mind have been erased.

In his perception at this moment, it was Emperor Ziwei who had calculated all his actions and responded in advance.

"What a formidable enemy."

Gu Xu frowned, his heartstrings tensed like never before.

Even though he had already made full preparations for today's battle after feeling that the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei had bad intentions, he still dare not underestimate the enemy's various methods when the battle is actually fought.

But even so, Gu Xu's actions were still calm and unhurried, without any panic.

Suddenly, flakes of goose-feather-like snowflakes fell from the sky one after another.

The snowflakes shone with a cold light, like a sharp sword, piercing straight through the chains made of starlight, allowing Gu Xu to regain his ability to move.

"The Wind Scale of Defeat."

This is the strongest style that Lu Shiyao performed with the Jinghong brush before his death.

Emperor Ziwei turned his head and looked behind him.

I saw a little girl carved out of jade with picturesque features appearing out of thin air.She was dressed in white like snow, floating in the air with her bare feet. Although she looked only five or six years old, she already had a bit of the charm of Lu Shiyao's magnificence back then.

It turned out that without knowing it, Gu Xu had already hidden the spirit of the Jinghong Brush in his soul world, as a help in the battle.

"Two against one," Emperor Ziwei laughed and teased, "Gu Xu, you're being ridiculous."

"To each other," Gu Xu said calmly, "You go back in time and don't give up."

When Xuenv spontaneously ignited her soul, Emperor Ziwei once told him that after reaching the eighth realm of "true monarch", the authority of "time and light" will have the power to reverse time.

And using "time" to go back in time, although it will erase other people's memories, it will still leave some indelible traces in their minds, making them feel that the scene in front of them seems familiar.

In the words of Gu Xu's previous life, it is "a sense of déjà vu".

Therefore, when Gu Xu found that his every move was under the control of the other party, he quickly realized that the other party was cheating by using "Time" to revert.

Emperor Ziwei didn't seem to notice Gu Xu's sarcastic tone.

He used "Time" to go back in time again.

Perhaps in the eyes of other monks, it is a very unethical thing to use this kind of trick to deal with a junior repeatedly.

But Emperor Ziwei has always been a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.He believes that the so-called "justice" and "morality" are defined by the winner.

This time, he blocked Gu Xu's conscious world in advance, blocking the connection between Gu Xu and the Jinghong pen, so that the Jinghong pen could no longer enter the battlefield and participate in the battle between the two.

Of course, he didn't forget to use the starlight chain to imprison Gu Xu's soul power.

Gu Xu's expression became more serious.

When he found that he could no longer communicate with Jinghong's pen tool spirit, he realized that Emperor Ziwei was "reading files" again.

For Emperor Ziwei's behavior, he has no countermeasures.As the opponent goes back in time again and again, the hole cards he prepared in advance will only be exposed to the opponent one after another, making him fall into an extremely passive situation.

Just when Gu Xu was concentrating on a solution to break the situation, he suddenly noticed that the breath of Emperor Ziwei's soul seemed to be a little weaker than before.

"The power consumption of 'Time' is extremely terrifying," he thought, "The current Emperor Ziwei is just a remnant soul with limited power, and it is absolutely impossible to use 'Time' to reverse time indefinitely."

As usual, the thoughts that flashed through his mind were quickly captured by Emperor Ziwei.

"So what?" Emperor Ziwei taunted, "Even if the number of times is limited, it is more than enough to deal with you."

His expression, on a young man, might seem cunning and cute; but when he turned into a young man in his thirties, he looked a little frivolous and awkward, which made Gu Xu feel quite uncomfortable.

"Really?" Gu Xu chuckled lightly.

He pondered for a moment, then began to quickly recite the mantra silently in his heart.

"The sky is dark, the earth is dark, where are the gods? Tonight, my disciples will use three sticks of fragrance to turn into tens of billions of auspicious clouds, shaking the heavens and the earth, calling the wind and rain, calling on the Supreme Haotian Jade Emperor God, stepping on the auspicious clouds, descending to the town, the world of ten directions, Up and down the void, east, west, north, south, everywhere, nowhere, disciple sincerely prays, the Supreme Heaven will descend quickly..."
