"I dare not let my mind wander, leaping once more and keeping a safe distance from the peeling corpse!"
A massive bolt of lightning suddenly struck, hitting that shedding corpse!
With the previous lightning spell and the forced use of the Heavenly Thunder Formula, my already drained body became even more hollow, my legs grew weak, and I nearly collapsed to the ground.
The locking of that qìjī made me shiver with horror.
This kind of "fear" feeling compels the body to squeeze out another burst of strength.
Taking a few steps back, I reached Si Yan's side.
Si Yan supported me with one hand, and her eyes revealed a trace of worry. However, she paid more attention to the shedding corpse than me.
After the sky strike, the naked corpse had turned black all over.
But...
He didn't disappear, but instead shuddered slightly, and the charred skin and flesh cracked into several gaps, releasing a thick, dark red liquid.
A cold chill spread through my heart, and Si Yan felt the same.
There were three figures constantly retreating, they were the people from the Grave Demon World.
Luo Kuan was half-kneeling on the ground, his fate unknown.
I swept my gaze towards Lao Gong and Liang Jieshi's direction, but found that one person and one ghost had mysteriously vanished...
Yes, the Yin-Yang Master is powerful, and Lao Gong is not an ordinary person either.
He could never vanish in place or dig three holes like a rabbit, he must have tampered with the geomancy of this place.
As long as Lao Gong finds the peculiar spot, he will definitely be able to find him!
"This place, it's not suitable to stay for long. It must be beheaded."
Breathing heavily, I rushed towards the shedding corpse, breaking free from Si Yan's grip.
Si Yan followed closely behind me.
We arrived at the front of the shedding corpse. The roasted and burnt skin emitted an odd smell, but the blood was permeated with an indescribable stench.
Electric arcs circled around him.
I drew out the half-yard copper sword and struck down without hesitation!
A fist-sized head thumped to the ground.
But a blue soul shadow shot out from his wound!
Even the crawling worm doesn't die easily!
The elder demon was hit by Shenting Thunder and shed his skin into this green corpse. The green corpse was injured by the sky strike, but even after being beheaded, another wisp of soul emerged!
I am now exhausted, but I have no time for any further action.
Si Yan let out a loud command, her long whip flew out fiercely, and the soul was hit and fell to the ground, but it still disappeared without a trace...
Her pretty face was tensed, and her eyes reflected an unwillingness and regret.
"Huff..." I panted, saying, "Don't rush. We have already achieved a stroke of luck by teaming up to subdue the elder demon. He has been greatly weakened, and also, he hasn't used all his strength. This type of Corpse Nurturing is nurturing a corpse within a corpse. We don't know if this is something from within him or something else that has been nurtured."
"The corpse has been rendered useless, the soul that emerged from it is injured, and it's not that easy for it to come back."
My speech was very fast.
Si Yan closed her eyes, and her expression looked slightly better.
Looking around, Si Yan was slightly on guard and said, "Lao Gong and Liang Jieshi have disappeared, and the Yin-Yang Master is also nowhere to be found."
"Too long here is not suitable. Let's find them and leave!" I said in a deep voice.
The purpose of using the Heavenly Thunder is both to scare the other person and also to scare myself.
In this way, even if we can't kill the Yin-Yang Master, he will definitely weigh the consequences and may not dare to come after us for revenge.
After all, a master and a Daoist are different. Even after becoming a ghost, Lao Gong would still be afraid of death.
Taking another step forward, Si Yan followed closely behind me.
As we walked towards the grave, we discovered that Chang Xin had disappeared without a trace. There was a large hole in the grave, and seven holes on the side of the ground, slanting deep...
The holes are level with the ground, and we couldn't see them from a distance.
No wonder the Yin-Yang Master could disappear without a trace in our eyes...
"They... entered which hole?"
Si Yan was slightly confused.
How can I know? Perhaps the last time I saw Lao Gong and Liang Jieshi, they looked like they were constantly searching, and it was Lao Gong who was trying to figure out which hole to enter to chase after the Yin-Yang Master?
Glancing at the small night pot hanging on my shoulder, I realized that as long as I have the power of life and death over Lv Kai, I can still sense something, and I can find Lao Gong through this object. However, now I am unable to do so.
Each life form has its advantages and disadvantages.
At this moment, the sensation of the gas mechanism locking felt even stronger, causing me to shiver and suddenly turn my head towards the direction of the mountains below.
My heart felt a little cold, and I spoke in a low voice, "The one coming is not good-natured."
Si Yan's expression slightly changed.
I swept my gaze over these holes, narrowing my eyes, and drew a line across the tip of my half-yard copper sword!
Blood drops dropped one after another, and I held my fingers and put some force into it, leaving two bloodstains on the two holes.
"I remind Si Yan to walk up the mountain!" I said.
This location itself is already on the mountain slope, just with a patch of open ground. Walking further, not far from here, we would continue onto a steep slope.
The dense forest was a black mass, pressing down heavily. Even after entering, it felt very oppressive, and one's shadow was hard to see even under the light.
It did not continue upwards.
Because, the sensation of the gas mechanism locking suddenly weakened significantly, becoming faint and almost broken off.
It's not because the other party has let go, but because I am too weak now. First, I have exhausted all my energy, and second, I have consumed another life force, leaving myself completely exhausted.
In addition, there is another reason, which is that Lao Gong and Liang Jieshi have entered the cave. If they emerge suddenly, they might encounter the incoming person.
We don't know who the other party is, so we can't be careless and lose an advantage.
"Shh." I made a gesture to keep silent, indicating to Si Yan not to make any noise.
I found a slightly elevated spot to sit, and from this angle, I could see the area where we had fought earlier through the gaps between the trees.
Si Yan crouched beside me, maintaining her vigilance and not relaxing to sit down.
I can't carry on by myself, I am too exhausted. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to sit down.
A figure appeared from a distance.
The man was hunched, and from a distance, I could tell he was very old, so old that it seemed he might not last much longer.
He held an object in his hand, which at first glance looked like a cane, but after taking a closer look, I realized that it was not a cane at all. It was a broom made of bamboo pole and palm tree skin.
"Very weak." Si Yan spoke very softly.
I knew that Si Yan was referring to the other person's weak aura.
However, I only felt an overwhelming chill, and a cold feeling kept coming from the bottom of my feet up to my head...
Weak?
That's not weak; it's that Si Yan is too weak to detect the other person's aura!
Including me, we can't detect it either!
If I had been able to detect it, I would not have had any flaw when I first met him and mistaken him for an ordinary old man sweeping the streets...
I felt as if I had fallen into an ice cellar, my heart cooling halfway.
Yes, he had suffered from the strike of thunder, so when I used it, he targeted me!
However, how could he appear in this village?
Could it be that... he is related to the Yin-Yang Master? He is a reinforcement for the other party?
