Chapter 139: A corpse should act like one!
Chapter 139: A corpse should act like one!
“A thousand-year-old corpse?"
Li Ran rubbed his chin. “I\'d like to see what a terrible omen is.”
Desolate, deathly still, filthy, and evil.
The black figure merely stood in the secret chamber, and an endless negative aura surged, making people feel like they were falling into a freezing room.
"Who is it? Come out!" Lin Langyue shouted.
The black shadow didn\'t say anything; its pale green eyes were devoid of any emotion.
"This should be the Corpse Puppet Yu Ye is refining, but it doesn\'t have Yu Ye\'s aura…”
"Corpse Puppet?"
Lin Langyue frowned.
The Yin Corpse Dao\'s cultivation method wasn\'t the strongest, but it was the evilest and most bizarre of all sects.
For Yu Ye to be able to cause such a huge commotion was not something simple.
At this moment, the black shadow moved.
As it slowly walked out of the secret chamber, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped.
Its figure was illuminated by the fire, revealing its true appearance.
It was a shriveled bald old corpse. Its appearance was haggard, as if it was wrapped around a person\'s skin. Its clothes were rotten, but one could still vaguely see the patterns of the cassock.
Li Ran raised an eyebrow. "It\'s a dead monk?"
Roar…
The ancient corpse\'s throat moved and let out a suppressed roar.
Its green eyes moved slightly as a faint killing intent floated out.
With a grim expression, Lin Langyue\'s longsword flashed with white light as a layer of ice formed in the secret chamber.
Dense icicles condensed in the air, whistling towards the ancient corpse!
Bang bang bang!
The clashing sounds were like drums, but they only caused the corpse to take a few steps back, not inflicting any substantial damage.
Roar!
The corpse seemed to have been enraged as it threw a punch at Lin Langyue.
"Tianshu Institute’s Dao technique, Seal and Imprison the Devil!"
Lin Langyue let out a light shout, and several chains of white light locked down the corpse.
No matter how it struggled, it could not break free.
The area where the iron chains and the ancient corpse came into contact was filled with smoke as if some power was burning it.
At the same time, all sorts of dao techniques rained down, causing the qi within the secret chamber to surge violently!
The ancient corpse could only roar angrily.
Lin Langyue had the upper hand.
She was powerful.
As the number one genius of the Righteous Path, she was the most talented genius in the Tianshu Institute after Yi Qinglan!
It was only when compared to Li Ran that she appeared much inferior.
At this moment, Li Ran did not interfere. Instead, he was probing Yu Ye\'s tracks.
However, he couldn\'t sense any aura at all, as if he had vanished into thin air.
"Strange, where did he go?"
Li Ran seemed to have thought of something as he cast his gaze towards the thousand-year-old corpse being beaten.
"Could it be…”
Roar!
A deafening roar rang out as invisible ripples rippled out.
The skin of the ancient corpse gradually turned ashen, and moldy fur grew.
Bang!
The chain that bound it was broken!
Lin Langyue\'s body suddenly softened as if her qi had been drained. She couldn\'t even cast a small spell.
Her heart skipped a beat. "This isn\'t good. This place has been contaminated by evil spirits. A forbidden technique was used here!"
The ancient corpse\'s fist smashed towards her. The strength of the fist exploded, and even the air exploded.
Lin Langyue\'s protective sword flew forward and slashed at its wrist.
Clang!
With a crisp sound of metal colliding, the sword was sent flying, while the ancient corpse\'s fist was unstoppable!
Bang!
Li Ran stood in front of her and received its fist with one hand.
"A corpse should act like one. So don’t cause trouble for the living!"
Blood energy permeated his entire body, and he sent the ancient corpse flying with a single fist.
The ancient corpse\'s body twisted in the air and shot towards him as soon as it landed.
Boom boom boom!
One man and one corpse crazily collided with each other.
Two figures shot out from the secret chamber. If it weren’t for the secret technique strengthening this place, the mountain would have been destroyed!
Bang!
Li Ran pressed on the corpse\'s head and punched it until its face caved in!
The ancient corpse let out a roar, but its movements did not stop. A kick sent Li Ran flying.
He fell to the ground, his face slightly pale.
This ancient corpse was unexpectedly challenging to deal with.
Its physical body was solid, and its strength was incomparably powerful. It was no less than his awakened bloodline state.
Crucially, it was emitting waves of cold and evil energy, causing his qi and blood to stagnate, and he couldn\'t move at all.
Li Ran shook his right hand, and Yun Ling Spear appeared in his hand.
Although it was impossible to use qi to activate it, the spear was also a sharp weapon!
The man and the corpse once again started fighting.
Li Ran saw the opportunity, and the silver spear swept past, directly cutting off the right arm of the ancient corpse!
Ao!
The ancient corpse roared furiously, and pitch-black death energy rapidly dissipated from the wound.
The death energy condensed into a long pitch-black blade, replacing its right arm. It was wrapped in ice-cold energy as it hacked towards him.
"F*ck! He\'s even evolved!"
Li Ran felt that fighting like this was not an option.
However, at this moment, he was also restricted by a forbidden technique. Therefore, even if he had all sorts of abilities, he could not use them.
Right at this moment, he suddenly noticed a pearl shining with a faint golden light beside the shattered vat.
Combined with the cassock on the corpse, he suddenly thought of something.
Bang!
Li Ran\'s spear sent the ancient corpse flying. He rushed to the back of the wall and picked up the golden pearl.
"Sure enough, I didn\'t guess wrong. It\'s a Buddha’s bone!"
The force from his palm sprayed out, directly crushing the Buddha’s bone. Boundless Buddhist energy instantly surged into his body!
“This Buddhist energy is enough!"
Li Ran sat cross-legged in the air.
His thumb and forefinger twisted together, forming a rotating spell seal.
Brilliant Buddhist light blossomed, dispersing the surrounding death qi like a scorching sun.
His eyes were lowered, and his eyes were slightly closed. Then, an enormous angry gaze appeared behind him!
The ancient corpse seemed to have realized something and charged at him.
But it was too late.
Li Ran\'s eyes suddenly opened, and golden light blossomed in them.
Boom boom boom!
He opened his mouth and roared furiously, and his voice erupted with thunder.
The vajra behind him responded and slashed down with the golden sword of light.
Boom!
The ancient corpse was cut in half while roaring. A several-meter-long ravine appeared on the hard stone wall!
The entire mountain shook violently.
This was a single sword’s might.
At the same time, the Buddha’s bone turned gray before being reduced to powder and dissipating.
The Buddhist energy had been ultimately used up.
Li Ran landed on the ground and looked at the ancient corpse.
It was slashed into two from its waist, and a large amount of its deathly black Qi had dissipated. The blackness on its body gradually faded.
On the other hand, that pair of green eyes slowly became apparent, and they blinked!
"Eh?"
Li Ran frowned. "Not yet dead?"
He picked up Yun Ling Spear and aimed it at its head, preparing for a ruthless strike.
