Because of that power that came from nowhere, Jiang Zhige now has the strength to fight against the armored skeleton, so there is no need to force Nangong Rou away by means of an elusive talisman.

Nangong Rou showed concern and said anxiously, "But brother, this monster is really too strong..."

Although Jiang Zhige suddenly showed a power comparable to that of the armored skeleton, the previous person who wanted to buy time for her to escape had just died. How could she feel at ease and let Jiang Zhige face the armored skeleton alone?

Just when Nangong Rou hesitated, the armored skeleton rushed over with a pitch-black sword.

Jiang Zhige did not retreat but advanced, holding the spirit sword in both hands and slashing towards the armored skeleton.

In an instant, one person and one bone sword collided dozens of times, and the sound of metal collisions in the corridor was endless.

Just like a mortal swordsman, there is no splendid martial arts and spiritual power, only pure sword light and sword shadow.

Even so, both of them were far beyond the Spiritual Martial Realm in terms of speed and strength, making Nangong Rou dazzled.

It was the first time she had seen such a level of battle that she could only rely on strength and speed without relying on spiritual power.

"Rouer, I have the confidence to defeat it, you will only distract me when you are nearby, leave quickly!"

Jiang Zhige clenched his teeth. He seemed to be able to handle it with ease, but in fact he could only barely parry. If Nangong Rou didn't leave, he would be exposed.

Nangong Rou hesitated after hearing the words, but decided to turn around and flee.

Although he was afraid that Jiang Zhige would lose to Armor Skeleton, now was not the time to be indecisive.

As Jiang Zhige said, since he is sure to deal with the armored skeleton, Nangong Rou will only be a burden to stay.

When Nangong Rou left, the situation that was originally evenly matched quickly changed.

Jiang Zhige's speed could barely keep up, but his strength was far inferior to that of the armored skeleton, and he was beaten and retreated.

Jiang Zhige's face was ugly. At first, he was indeed comparable to the armor and skeleton. The problem was that his cultivation was only in the early stage of Lingwu. After a few rounds of such a high-load battle, the body would be unbearable, but the armor and skeleton healed as if it was not consumed. Fight more bravely.

And Jiang Zhige doesn't use martial arts, because the martial arts he learned during the body refining period can't have any effect on the armored skeleton, but will consume himself too much.

"Fairy Wood"

Fortunately, this battle was not crushed. As long as he held on for a while to ensure that Nangong Rou escaped outside the tomb, Jiang Zhige would be able to find a chance to escape.

After dozens of rounds, Jiang Zhige's fighting became more and more difficult, the hand holding the spirit sword trembled slightly, and the tiger's mouth was bleeding.

"Yes, it should be almost right?"

Jiang Zhige glanced behind him, Nangong Rou was at the Spirit Martial Realm anyway, so it shouldn't be a problem to escape to the outside of the tomb after so long.

Just when Jiang Zhige wanted to retreat, the armored skeleton seemed to sense his thoughts and turned his position to block the exit.

Jiang Zhige tried to push back the armored skeleton, but unfortunately, nearly exhausted, he could not shake the armored skeleton, but was instead slashed back five meters by a knife.

Jiang Zhige still wanted to use his body technique and martial arts to slip away, but he saw the armored skeleton plunged into the ground, black energy surged all over his body, and in just a few seconds, he created a formation to surround the entire tomb.

Jiang Zhige's face turned pale, and there was a sense of despair in his heart.

He never imagined that a skeleton would have the same active fighting mind as a human being, and could even set up a formation in such a short period of time.

Taking oneself as the eye of the formation, without making any engraving techniques, it is simply incredible that a large trapped formation can be set up just by inserting a knife into the ground.

Now Jiang Zhige's strength is not enough to break through the trap in an instant, that is to say, he is bound to die.

"Well, Rou'er must have escaped."

Jiang Zhige shook his head, but he wasn't too scared.

As long as Nangong Rou is still alive, his life doesn't seem so important.

The armored skeleton did not give the slightest chance, and the power of the whole body rose steadily, and soon it was strong to the level of Yuanhai Realm.

"Yuanhaijing..."

Jiang Zhige let out a wry smile, the realm of transforming spirit into Yuan is not something he can touch at all.

Originally, he wanted to struggle a little bit, but now facing the powerhouses of Yuanhaijing, it would be wiser to just kill him without struggling, rather than struggling.

The armored skeleton let out a roar similar to that of a monster, and raised a pitch-black sword towards Jiang Zhige.

Jiang Zhige did not hide or block, because these actions were meaningless.

Before his death, he had no fear of death, only reluctance to part with Nangong Rou.

"Rou'er, if you don't have a brother in the future, you have to live a good life..."

He usually takes care of Nangong Rou too much, which causes Jiang Zhige to worry about how Nangong Rou will live without him in the future.

But people are different. Even if he doesn't die today, Jiang Zhige will leave Nangong Rou one day, but the time of leaving is a little earlier.

Just as Jiang Zhige sighed, a figure suddenly rushed over and pushed him out.

The visitor pushed Jiang Zhige away and tried to dodge, but unfortunately the speed was so different that he was almost cut in half by the black sword.

Jiang Zhige, who was lying not far away, looked sluggish, unable to react at all.

The one who pushed him away was none other than Nangong Rou, who should have left the tomb a long time ago.

Why? He fought with the armored skeleton for dozens of rounds, why is Nangong Rou still in the tomb?

"I-I knew that brother lied..."

Nangong Rou bleeds from her mouth and looks in a trance.

At this moment, her back is more than just skin and flesh, she can already see the internal organs and the bones.

If it wasn't for her cultivation in the Spirit Martial Realm, she would have long since become a corpse.

Jiang Zhige suddenly came back to his senses when he heard the sound, and when he saw Nangong Rou's tragic state, his heart was almost split.

"Rouer!!"

Jiang Zhige rushed to Nangong Rou desperately, tears welling up in his eyes like a spring.

He obviously has the strength comparable to the Taoist realm, but at this moment, he has fallen three steps in a row, and he can't stand firm at all.

The armored skeleton did not pursue the victory, but stared at Jiang Zhige and let out a playful and weird laugh.

Jiang Zhige ran to Nangong Rou's side and wanted to hug her, but when he saw her bloody body, all he could do was panic and at a loss.

"Rouer, you'll be fine, you'll be fine..."

Jiang Zhige could only take out the healing elixir tremblingly, and wanted to feed it to Nangong Rou, but just when it was brought to his mouth, her blood spurted out.

Nangong Rou showed a poignant smile. Her kind of injury could not be saved by ordinary seventh-grade medicine pills, let alone ninth-grade healing medicine pills?

"Brother, brother, you used to protect me, and occasionally, let Rouer protect you once in a while..."

Nangong Rou was laughing, but she was also in tears like Jiang Zhige.

She knew that she was going to die, but she really couldn't bear Jiang Zhige, really really couldn't bear it.

"Rouer! Rouer! Hold on!"

Jiang Zhige's vision was almost blurred by tears, he still dared not accept the reality, and tried every means to save Nangong Rou.
