Chapter 156: Instantaneous fierce battle

At that moment, I saw the skeletons pouring out of the water in an overwhelming manner. No, it felt like the cannons hidden in the water had finally fired their shells, and the skeletons were the shells that had been fired.

I can only describe how fast these skeletons were! In fact, there weren’t many of them, maybe twenty or thirty? They surrounded the boat and suddenly burst out of the water, but because it happened so suddenly, it gave me the impression that they were overwhelming… At this moment, all I could think of was a phrase that Lin Jianguo had once told me: “Beware of skeletons…!”

I had almost forgotten about this, but at that time, the gods still existed. At this time, the gods’ bodies had already died, and the remaining spirits were imprisoned in my master’s hands. How could skeletons appear at this time?

A cold skeleton has no expression, but it is the last trace of human existence, and it always makes people feel hideous for some inexplicable reason.

Like many children, when they first think of the image of monsters and ghosts, they always think of skeletons, which subconsciously instills a sense of fear and sadness at the remnants of life after it has passed away…

The change came too quickly, and everyone was too distracted to react. Only the Xuan Zi, who had been standing in the center, suddenly shouted, “Youngster, how dare you?”

However, only Xuan Zi reacted like this. After all, these skeletons came too quickly. Although no one in this place was a weakling…! From this side, it also shows that among all the people, Xuan Zi is really the strongest?

But in that brief moment, Xuan Zi could only shout out such a sentence. As soon as he finished speaking, the skeletons had already fallen onto the deck where our ship was located!

At this point, everyone reacted, and Master Hui and Xiao Laoba were the first to rush out.

Although we didn’t know how these skeletons could move, they were only skeletons after all, and in terms of their ability to withstand blows, they were no match for a real living person!

With a ‘crack’, Master Hui smashed a skull that was charging at him with a straight punch, then with a sweeping kick, he directly broke the skull’s seemingly slender leg bones… The skull fell down struggling, and the strange thing was that it was still moving.

Master Hui didn’t understand what was going on, but instinctively he wanted to crush the skull!

But at this moment, something strange happened. As Master Hui’s foot just touched the skull, a strange force suddenly exploded from there… Master Hui was caught off guard, suddenly shouted, and took three steps back. He was dizzy and almost couldn’t stand!

I naturally knew how powerful Master Hui was, and that he could do this to him… I had already thought of a possibility, and in my worry, I couldn’t help but rush towards Master Hui. If it was a physical fight, I could do it too. In that instant, I was already ready to use my secret technique.

However, Master Hui waved his hand, barely supporting his body, and roared, “Don’t rush over! These skeletons… they will explode! Yes… the souls will explode!”

After saying this, Master Hui could no longer hold on, and he swayed and took a few steps back, only to be caught by Uncle Wang behind him.

When it comes to sudden combat, neither Uncle Chen nor Uncle Wang is any good. I don’t know much about the Wu Liyu lineage… and I also know how terrifying a soul explosion is.

Even if the soul of an ordinary person explodes without regard, it is an extremely terrifying energy. Even a ghost who has been ‘burnt’ and lost his reason would not do this… Why do I say it is terrifying? Just imagine how much damage an ordinary piece of iron can cause to a person. But after the explosion?

This is the power of a soul explosion, and it is definitely not the soul of an ordinary person that can withstand it all at once, even if it is a powerful person like Master Hui! Even if it is too late to react and there is no defense, it is enough to prove its power.

Master grabbed me by the arm and whispered in my ear, “Sanwa, protect Xiao Laoba.”

I knew what he meant. After all, compared to the other meridians, the soul of the mountain meridian was absolutely powerful… Master was reminding me to use my own soul power to give Xiao Laoba an extra layer of protection.

I dared not be negligent, and stopped… I quickly activated my soul, forming a soul shield in front of Xiao Laoba.

But these skeletons were completely reckless, and soon they gathered together, rushing towards us like an army pressing the border… and their goal was extremely obvious, my master!

Xuanzunzi was furious. At this time, anyone could see that the skeletons were rushing towards the Sky Pattern Stone in my master’s hand… How could Xuanzunzi allow the skeletons to take the Sky Pattern Stone… At that moment, I realized how terrifying Xuanzunzi’s anger was.

He quickly manipulated his hand gestures, faster than the speed of a god, leaving no trace… I just felt that in an instant, the calm river turned over, and the water rushed towards our boat with a deafening sound!

“Get down!” A strong thought entered our ears in an instant, it was Ji Qing’s voice!

Faced with the towering waves, we had no choice but to all fall down without thinking. At this moment, my master beside me exclaimed, “Ancient magic! The long-lost ancient five elements magic of Taoism!”

As soon as the master finished speaking, the waves crashed down on the deck of the boat we were in… The huge waves washed up… and with a loud crashing sound, they smashed the skeletons to pieces!

Some of the fragile skeletons were not even able to explode before they were washed into the water!

At this moment, a huge roar sounded in the water, and the huge beasts that had just demonstrated against us suddenly appeared in the water. One of them, a huge strange fish, jumped up, opened its huge mouth, and bit a weak skeleton in one bite!

The explosion of the soul was still there. The monster fish’s movements were stiff for a moment, but it quickly fell into the water and swam down with relative ease… It was really shocking.

I was also washed up onto the side of the deck by the huge waves. From this angle, I just happened to see the terrifying monster fish unleash its power… I wiped the water off my face and looked at the elders with great concern. After all, the monster in the water had appeared again, and I was worried that they would fall into the water.

I vaguely felt that these monsters should all be oppressed by the Xuan Zi, but the Xuan Zi’s attitude was unclear, so people had to be careful, lest they really be afraid of hurting the rat when they threw it away. What if he accepted Yang Sheng’s request?

As far as I could see, all the elders were fine, although they had been scattered by the sudden flood… but they were still on the boat. However, I saw another scene… that was Yang Sheng in action. He suddenly jumped from the tall bridal boat and, with unbelievable speed and strength, jumped towards our boat!

He was about to run out of strength… His body sank, and he actually stepped on the head of a water monster to gain momentum and leap towards our ship again…!

He was simply taking advantage of the chaos to quickly snatch the Tianwen Stone. He didn’t worry about the skeletons at all… The monster that Yang Sheng had stepped on let out a deafening roar, then subconsciously turned its head and extended its long neck, biting Yang Sheng without mercy.

At this moment, Yang Sheng stepped on the head of another strange fish. Facing the monster that was attacking, he also let out a deafening roar, then turned around… and suddenly jumped up, swinging his fist and slamming it into the monster!

“Corpse roar…” An elder of the Wu Liyu lineage who had just been washed up to me by the flood heard Yang Sheng’s roar and couldn’t help but mutter in a daze.

Yes, the corpse roared… At the same time as Yang Sheng roared, the blue sky suddenly turned gray, and there was a faint flash of lightning about to fall… but it was contained and not released. This obviously abnormal phenomenon of heaven and earth can only explain one thing: Yang Sheng’s roar was not just a corpse roar!

Only the top-level zombies can make such a roar! This roar naturally has a deterrent effect, especially on humans. It is said that it can also steal people’s hearts!

Even the powerful monster couldn’t help but stop moving suddenly, and his eyes appeared unfocused… At this moment, Yang Sheng’s fist had already smashed into the monster’s head!

The “fragile” windbreaker on his body suddenly split apart from the power of the punch… revealing Yang Sheng’s green-black arm…! There were also red streaks on it, and the flesh was torn open between the streaks… and that arm was swelling up terribly, full of power!

At that moment, I thought of the old village chief, the one who had swallowed the purple plant… the face of a man whose decaying flesh was mixed with new flesh!

Yang Sheng, he is really no longer human!

The blood spurting into the sky was like rain… It was the blood mist that the monster had spat out… Yang Sheng stood in the middle of the blood mist, roaring and snarling…

But for the first time, I realized that he was really as far away from me as the universe.
