Chapter 157: Competition
At that moment, water dripped from my face and hair, but I couldn’t take my eyes off Yang Sheng.
My whole body was in such a critical moment, but I couldn’t help but be in a daze. The images in my mind kept changing. Yang Sheng, who was covered in rice, Yang Sheng, who said goodbye at the station, Yang Sheng, who hugged me when we met again… the back of the deserted village, the pistol that reminded us of the danger in the Black Rock Miao Village, the indifferent side of the car, the final breakup letter…
Many, many images, and finally, the corpse king roaring in the blood fog… My heart ached violently.
I couldn’t stand it anymore and suddenly stood up, suddenly shouting at Yang Sheng, “Yang Sheng, you’re fucking dead, you’ve been fucking dead for a long time! You’ve turned yourself from a living person into a fucking zombie! You’ll never have the chance in your life for your son to call you “Dad.”
“Roar…” In front of Yang Sheng, the huge water monster, after spitting out a bloody mist, tilted its head and fell down softly… But Yang Sheng seemed to be in extreme pain. On his arm, where new flesh and rotten flesh were intertwined, there was another hand that had clawed fiercely.
There was no blood, only the red and black flesh under the tumbling skin… He seemed to be in pain.
In my scream, he turned around, and at that moment, the monster’s fallen corpse accidentally touched him… the mask on his face slipped… but at that moment I closed my eyes, unable to see any longer what kind of face was underneath the mask.
After leaving, the first time I really looked him in the face, seeing his face clearly meant the complete destruction of my memories, a little cruel… I would rather not see it.
But at that moment, the elder next to me suddenly pulled me, with great strength, dragging me away from the spot… I suddenly opened my eyes and found that at the moment I closed my eyes, one of the skeletons that had just stood up had rushed to our position…
The skeletons themselves are not particularly dangerous, but in this chaotic situation, it is definitely not a wise choice to fight head-on with these guys who can explode their souls.
I began to feel a sense of regret for myself, why was I still so emotional at such a time of crisis…?
There were still a dozen or so skeletons left, and they were quickly gathering together, stumbling towards Master’s side… and our people were also quickly gathering together. For these skeletons that explode with their souls, the only way to resist them is to quickly gather together.
Compared to the skeletons, humans are faster… So, we quickly concentrated next to the master.
At this time, Xuan Zi finally sent out his ultimate move… He clenched his fist into a single hand, and between the movements of his fist, there was a fist made of powerful spiritual power in the air, full of oppressive pressure, smashing down on the group of skeletons.
“Give me the stone of the heavenly pattern.” As Xuan Zongzi spoke, his fist, made of soul power, fell with his movements, as light as a cloud and as gentle as the wind, just like him. However, the collision of soul power is like this, not a physical blow in the real world, and it will bring amazing results.
The meaning of Xuan Zongzi is to crush the souls in these skeletons through the crushing of soul power!
At the same time, all the water monsters gathered towards the place where Yang Sheng was, moving at an extremely fast speed. Due to the violent movement of these huge water monsters under the riverbed, the calm river finally stirred up a storm… Our small boat began to sway violently, and it was possible that it would capsize at any time.
Even the resplendent bridal boat was like that… Everyone was unsteady on their feet, swaying back and forth… Not to mention casting spells, it was already a huge stroke of luck just to stand still and not fall into the river.
Could the situation be any more chaotic?
Yang Sheng, who had already put on his mask again, was jumping up and down in the midst of the water monsters, making deafening roars, and seemed to have an invincible command of the situation.
Wu Tian finally opened his eyes at this moment, took out his hands that had been tucked into his sleeves, and began to cast spells… As for the skeletons, I found that they had an amazing ability to organize. In the face of Xuan Zongzi’s soul power straight punch, they actually knew how to use “tactics,” that is, one soul power self-detonation after another.
I knew before that this kind of self-destruction was a force that could not be ignored. Even a powerful person like Xuan Dunzi would be temporarily halted by the use of such a technique in the face of such self-destruction.
However, I also really saw the power of Xuan Dunzi once again. In the face of such a level, even the soul power self-detonation that followed one after another, the soul power fist formed by his magic power was actually not moved at all, not even the slightest loss, except for the stagnation, it continued to crush downward!
The soul power of the ghost cultivator was originally very powerful. Without the constraints of the physical body, how could it not be powerful if it was purely cultivating the soul? Plus, Xuan Zongzi was a master himself!
However, the skeletons’ self-destructing tactics were also effective, and they rushed into our sight after only delaying for a little while… Their target was Master. At this time, we all risked our lives and used various methods to protect Master with our spiritual power, because these skeletons themselves were not very scary.
The skeletons that rushed to us exploded two at a time… Master, who was the first to be hit, was also unable to withstand the impact of the explosion, and his face instantly turned purple… The pain from the soul is always many times greater than the pain from the body.
“Give me the stone of the heavenly pattern.” Xuan Zi shouted again. The master’s face began to waver. It’s not strange for the master to make a decision at this time. It’s difficult for anyone to make a decision at this time.
At this time, Wu Tian, unusually, did not use his instant-release technique, but began to chant a series of obscure incantations… Those were incantations that our Li family was not familiar with at all. I was extremely impressed that, under such a bumpy situation, Bugang was able to move so steadily!
The effect of the magic Wu Tian prepared must be amazing. Xuan Zongzi may have also felt the pressure and urged us on.
On the contrary, Yang Sheng, although he was invincible, could not defeat four opponents with two fists… It would take him some time to deal with the successive water monsters.
Finally, when there were only five skeletons left, the spiritual shield that we had given to the master finally broke… At this point, we could only stop them with our own bodies. This was a choice we had no choice but to make, because without the Tianwen Stone, we would all die!
The first to rush forward was Wu Liyu. We were prepared to hold back one skeleton at a time… but at this time, the skeletons changed their tactics again. At this time, four of the skeletons chose to explode at the same time!
At that moment, I heard an unknown humming in my ears, like a thunderclap exploding next to me… Then I felt an invisible shockwave directly hitting my soul!
The feeling at that moment was not pain, but a dull, nauseating, dizzy dullness. I stumbled back two steps, and the next moment I bent over… But something strange happened. At this time, the thin layer of my body that had already become visible was also impacted… But the power of this explosion was not enough to break through it… Instead, it kept shaking!
It actually absorbed most of the explosive power… This inexplicable luck suddenly woke me up from the impact of the explosion!
When I opened my eyes, I saw Xuan Zi shouting in anger, then he turned his fist into a finger and “poked” at the last remaining skeleton… and all of my elders were attacked by this soul explosion, and at this moment, they all vomited blood.
Some people were immediately stunned by the shock of the explosion. My master’s situation was the best, but at this moment, he was also half kneeling on the ground and unable to stand up… And the surviving skeleton, at this moment, did not hesitate to snatch the Tianwen Stone from my master’s hand!
The group of skeletons succeeded… I had only one thought in my head, and the skeleton seemed to be full of some kind of cunning wisdom, knowing that this group of people were not easy to deal with. After taking the Sky Pattern Stone, it turned around without hesitation and was about to jump into the river.
It even knew to escape in the chaos… But unfortunately, it was completely unprepared for me, and it passed by me in that instant!
At that moment, I didn’t hesitate to stretch out my hands and almost jumped out, hugging the naked skeleton. At that moment, I actually felt the obvious shock of the skeleton!
By the time I realized what was happening, the finger of the soul of the Xuan Zi had already pierced the skeleton without hesitation…
At this time, the skeleton should have exploded, but it didn’t. It actually resisted Xuan Dunzi’s attack. I felt a burst of hatred from it, and I subconsciously wanted to protect my soul.
But I didn’t expect that in such a moment, the skeleton suddenly stretched out its dry bone hand…
