Bloodthirsty Qi (2)

. However, in front of these little gods, he was just an enlightened spirit beast.I suspect now all the fur on its tail has been pulled out!I walked up the steps to the palace gate. The headless guard...It was pitch black here, with no torches to light the way. My brother worried I might trip and held my hand tightly.

He held up his phone's flashlight, and the cold light revealed a pinkish object that made our nerves tense.

It was an animal, stripped of its skin, lying in a pool of blood.

Pink flesh, white fat, and jet-black blood... the stench of blood filled the narrow mountain passage, making people nauseous.

Meng Shu had seen many ghosts, but she had rarely seen such a creature's corpse. She covered her nose in discomfort and complained to Long Xiaoguo: "What kind of place is this Why would you throw these skinned animals in here"

"Shut up!" Long Xiao's voice trembled slightly.

It's strange, why was he so shocked to see an animal carcass

"...They're here again...they're here again..." Long Xiaoge's voice carried a strange edge.

My brother sensed something was wrong. He shone his phone's flashlight on him and asked, "Hey, who's here again What's wrong with you"

Long Xiaoge glanced at us sideways. His face was unnaturally pale, and his eyes were blazing with a sinister green fire.

My brother secretly pulled out a small taser from his pocket and shoved it into my hand.

He wants me to watch out for Dragon Little Brother.

Since entering this mountain crevice, Brother Long has only given us his back, at most turning his body slightly, never facing us directly.

"Sītu Lín's men are here again…" Lóng Xiǎo-gē walked forward with his back to us.

"How did his men get in Through the Corpse Bog" I asked.

Long Xiao nodded. "You've seen it, haven't you They captured a lot of animals, flayed their skins and threw them into the Yin Road with blood-soaked corpses, allowing the murderous aura of the animals to fill the air... Blood energy, resentment, and the death throes of these creatures all contribute to making the Great Corpse King increasingly ferocious."

“This cave is big and dark, there’s no way to defend against anything. Come on, let's hurry and see how the Great Corpse King is doing.” I urged.

This cave has many signs of artificial excavation, layers upon layers dug into the ground. There are also numerous holes in the cave walls, dense and clustered like a honeycomb.

The opening was about the size of a tea tray, not very deep, and each one held a skeleton.

Only a head and a pile of bones.

"Is this your burial ground" I couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm." Long XiaoGe replied with a grunt, quickly heading downwards.

The great gate drew nearer, the air thick with the stench of death. We stepped into a barrier, erected to prevent the Corpse King from wandering beyond its bounds.

As soon as we walked in, we immediately sensed danger.

Behind the stone gate are many small rooms. Long Xiaog said warningly, “These stone gates have mechanisms. You can only push them open from the outside. Don't touch them, because the things inside really want to come out. If you open the doors, they will attack you immediately.”

"Inside...are all of these Corpse Kings your doing" This row of rooms looked like it had at least twenty of them.

"Yes, however, one was stolen... I suspect there's a mole who colluded with Situ Lin, otherwise it wouldn't have been stolen so easily." Long Xiao frowned and said.

It turns out it was like this... No wonder he was so cold to that elder sister. He probably suspected his bewitchingly beautiful fiancee was involved.

The largest stone gate at the end was sealed shut, behind which should be the lair of the Great Corpse King.

"Don't be surprised by what you see later. If you can dispel the evil, do it quickly. If not, go back and prepare for next time!"

After Long Xiaoge whispered instructions to us, he opened the largest stone gate.

Behind the Shimen lay a sealed space. In the distance, there was a platform with a tiger-skin circle chair upon which lay a male corpse wearing the attire of a Black Miao King.

Long Xiaoge placed four little grass men on the ground, extending his hands forward, and chanted a long string of Miao language.

The little grass men stood up on their own, without any wind, and each one was exactly the same pose as Long Xiaogē!

With arms outstretched and raised, like a zombie, it took step after step forward.

As soon as I got close to the corpse, a scarecrow split apart. Continuing forward, I was immediately cut in half by an invisible wind.

This situation didn't seem right. When my brother shone his phone light on it, we saw that the corpse's empty black eyes were fixed on us.

"Xiao Qiao, be careful and don't go forward... I feel something's not right..." My brother gripped his Qiankun Sword, watching as the scarecrows were chopped limb by limb, their heads severed like sacrifices.

"Don't go forward! Don't try to be a hero!" I nervously grabbed my brother's arm.

The last scarecrow's head landed on the corpse's instep, and the corpse suddenly jolted like it had been electrocuted.

"Ah!" I gasped in a low voice—a corpse playing dead!

A wave of venomous and sinister air immediately filled the stone chamber. A wisp of gray-black mist billowed from the corpse's mouth, nose, and ears.

"Hey! You guys didn't seal the Great Corpse King with the Nine Orifices Jade, did you" I took a few steps back and retreated to Long Xiaogē's side.

He kept his hands raised, fingers spread wide, but his head remained bowed, as if he hadn't heard my question.

“Hey, Long ge” I turned my head to look at him.

His knuckles cracked, veins bulging on the stark white skin.

He slowly lifted his head, turning it to look at me. His eyes glowed with a dark green light.

"...Of course, not locked... Be careful... He's coming..." he muttered, his whole body suddenly trembling!

My ring suddenly emitted a burst of red light, forcing Long Xiaogē to retreat to the wall. The black smoke emanating from the body of the Great Corpse King was dispelled by the red light—

Temporary blindness.

My brother cursed, "These two little ancestors are too unkind, they're trying to blind us! Next time we have to wear sunglasses even in the dark!"

I covered my eyes. In such dim lighting, a sudden flash of light like that could easily blind you for a moment.

The two little ancestors now have a complete essence, spirit, and energy, as well as bones and flesh. Their magical power must have become even more solid. I touched my belly to soothe them, and the red light gradually converged.

“Who are you” Long Ge suddenly spoke in a sinister tone, he still maintained the gesture of raising his arms with his fingers curled into claws.

Let's take a look at the shriveled, hollow Great Corpse King and then at Little Brother Long with his green eyes. For a moment, we were a bit confused about what was going on.

The Grand Corpse King's evil aura was supposed to be dispelled by the two ancestors, but he wasn't destroyed. He remained stiffly standing before the circle chair, his hollow eye sockets staring at us.

Long Xiaoge's tone seemed to have changed into someone else: "Answer my question quickly, little woman, or I'll rip your belly open..."

I steeled myself and addressed the corpse, “We are mages here to dispel your malevolent energy.”

A black qi emerged once again from the mouth of the Great Corpse King, he seemed to be... laughing.ch—"Yes, it seems he's ready..."What are you doing in broad daylight!A thin gray mist hung in the air, shrouding the entire street in an eerie silence. It felt like a graveyard, even with so many peop...
