Chapter 430 When the Flame Goes Out
It was a face exactly like Ji Li's, but the temperament was completely opposite.
If Ji Li was like a deep pool, it would make people feel depressed.
Then Li Yi was a walking mountain, with enough power to crush everything in the world. He crushed a ghost as soon as he appeared.
But...
This extremely powerful figure was not Li Yi.
The majestic spiritual power flowed on its body like a stream of water, condensing into its shape with black.
The only thing with color was the face, but it was far from being as clean as Li Yi himself.
The black spiritual power in the blood vessels carved a winding snake shape on the face, spreading from the lower jaw to the bottom of the eyes.
The black snake seemed to have independent consciousness, and at first glance it felt like staring at a living thing.
And on the shoulder of the figure, a dark red crow was staring at the front with scarlet eyes.
This was an alternative Li Yi, and that alternative crow.
Because it was a ghost.
That was Li Yi who died after the first store manager mission was launched.
Li Yi was already strong enough, and after he turned into a ghost, he could only be called a disaster.
Even the ghost that made people powerless to resist was crushed into mud in his hands.
Similarly, as one of the special ghosts in the black and white building, it was also attracted by Gu Xingjian.
And behind it, several special figures were faintly revealed.
They seemed to come from the same place as Li Yi who turned into a ghost, and they were also the store manager's ghost!
…
At this moment, the fourth floor was the world in the painting. A huge mountain range between the sky and the earth divided the world into two.
A figure walked step by step in the valley, holding a bloody skull in his hand.
A corpse turned into ashes under the gaze of the empty eye sockets of the skull, and finally became a gray light, which was completely absorbed by the head.
And just as he was about to move forward, he seemed to have some enlightenment in the dark, which made him look back suddenly.
Li Yi's face appeared in the field of vision, his eyes calmly looking at the narrow road behind him, and then glanced at the dim sky.
After a long time, he whispered:
"Gu Xingjian, you dare to plot against me..."
Li Yi's eyes were looking at the sky, and the black crow on his shoulder was also looking at the sky.
And a few steps behind him, a little boy in a skirt who was always following him was also looking up at the sky.
The seemingly harmless child had a strange gray light flashing in his eyes, but it was gone in a flash.
...
The situation on the fifth floor was even more chaotic.
The corridor, which was less than 50 steps long, began to split on the left and right.
Four foreign ghosts emerged from the entrance, and they could see the entity.
The ghost walking in the front was Li Yi after the ghost transformation, representing a unique and powerful combat power.
The three behind him were Luo Xian, Chen Hansheng, and the former Li Congrong...
These store managers all had store manager tasks or high-level task ghosts on their bodies.
In the state of living people, sinful creatures are just sinful creatures, but once they become ghosts, they merge with those sinful creatures.
This makes the store managers who have turned into ghosts much more powerful than ordinary ghosts.
Without exception, the four ghosts are wrapped in powerful spiritual power, and almost materialized black liquid flows on their bodies, representing active spiritual power.
The only difference between the three ghosts and the ghost Li Yi is that their faces are almost completely covered with black liquid and can only be barely recognized.
Only Li Yi has clear facial details.
These four special ghosts transformed from dead store managers occupied the left side of the corridor where Ji Li just was.
And began to move forward continuously.
On the right half of the corridor, in addition to the ghost that pulled Ji Li into the room and the one crushed by the ghost Li Yi.
There are still eight left, four of which are entrenched at the end, as if they are not in a hurry to take action, and the other four resist the ghost store managers.
Of course, there are two other people here who have occupied a small area.
That was Gu Xingjian, who was sitting cross-legged at the edge of the exit, controlling the overall situation.
And Xu Nan, who was seriously injured but still waiting for the most confident time to attack.
However, Gu Xingjian seemed not so satisfied with the current situation. He frowned slightly and whispered:
"Why didn't the person I was waiting for come? Could it be that there was a change after the transformation that I haven't calculated yet?"
The golden flame was fading. When the ghost store managers arrived, it had been reduced to two-thirds.
In this time, it was reduced to one-third.
Gu Xingjian obviously felt the pressure. There were four extremely powerful ghosts in front of him.
Two of them were very terrifying, and even he was not sure he could resist them.
So the most ideal result was that he had to wait for the one he was waiting for before the flame completely disappeared.
However, attracting Li Yi after the transformation was a back-up plan for his plan to fail.
With it, Li Yi would definitely come. Even if he couldn't achieve his original goal, he could still settle for the next best thing.
Li Yi is here, and Ru Ru will come too, so he will have a chance to continue to snatch the third puzzle piece.
Gu Xingjian created this big move, and he was naturally confident. He had many ways to survive, and there was always one way to achieve his goal.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Xu Nan, who had not made a move until now, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Even if...
The first and second goals were all lost. As long as Xu Nan took action, he could also achieve the third goal.
In short, Gu Xingjian was always invincible in this store manager mission.
The store managers who had transformed into ghosts had already fought with the first four building ghosts, but the final outcome was not much suspense.
Gu Xingjian estimated that after the flames burned out, the ghost store manager should be able to advance within ten steps.
Then at that time, at least two of the four building ghosts in front of him would be attracted. If only two were left, he should be able to resist slightly.
And by then, the person he was really waiting for should also be here.
So, Ji Li was not actually the person Gu Xingjian was waiting for, so the previous sentence was worth pondering.
Just as Gu Xingjian was thinking in his heart, a cool breeze blew over his head for no reason.
The sudden wind made him frown, and he looked up suddenly and saw a crow flapping its wings in the dark passing over his head.
As the crow's wings flapped, he suddenly found that the golden flames that could have lasted for a while were all extinguished!
Gu Xingjian's eyes were deep, but he was not angry. He stood up from the ground and slowly looked behind him.
When the flames went out, there was a low sound of footsteps, and the troublemaker said coldly:
"Gu Xingjian, the person you are waiting for will not come."
At the same time, there was a loud bang at the other end of the corridor, and a door was suddenly broken from the inside.
There were waves of chain sounds, and the man carrying the bronze ancient coffin finally broke through.
When he appeared, the gray and black colors in his eyes began to merge, and his waist-length hair actually grew slowly at this moment!
Looking at the place where the flames went out from a few meters away, he said in the same cold tone:
"Gu Xingjian, Ji has disappointed you."
