Chapter 198 Skeleton
Ye Chunyang would not believe the words of the young man in white. He walked closer to the mud wall with concentration. After thinking for a while, he clenched his hand and the green hair appeared in his hand.
The young man in white looked at him with a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he sat quietly without saying anything, with a hint of expectation in his expression.
Ye Chunyang hesitated for a while, and after his eyes flashed slightly, the invisible green hair gently scratched the mud wall. With a "swish" sound, a gap of about a foot wide was opened in the mud wall. Then a light flashed, and a crescent-shaped jade pendant appeared. It was inlaid with several kinds of spiritual stones that could ward off wind, water, and thunder. It was an extraordinary treasure.
The young man in white was slightly happy when he saw the jade pendant, and said, "This is it, but in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of others, I cast a forbidden spell on this jade pendant, which can only be untied by myself. However, I am not able to move, so I can only trouble you to bring this thing to me so that I can untie the curse."
A dark light flashed in Ye Chunyang's eyes. For some reason, although there was no loophole in what the other party said, he felt uneasy when he saw that the young man in white was so nervous about the jade pendant.
After hesitating for a while, he took out the jade pendant without saying anything and walked over slowly.
Watching him walk towards him step by step, the young man in white showed surprise, but there was more strange color in his eyes that others could not detect.
Ye Chunyang did not change his expression and walked slowly to the young man with the jade pendant.
The young man in white could not hide his joy on his face, but before he took the jade pendant, his expression suddenly stagnated and his eyes flashed gloomy.
Ye Chunyang suddenly retreated to the cave entrance, tightened the jade pendant and looked at him coldly.
"What are you doing, fellow Daoist? Since you have already taken the spiritual tree, do you want to regret it? Besides, I am the only one who can remove the spell on this jade pendant. Anyone who takes it away without permission will be attacked. Fellow Daoist, please think twice before you act." The young man in white had a gloomy look in his eyes, which was very different from his gentle appearance before.
Ye Chunyang was indifferent and silent.
But his next move made the young man in white shocked and angry.
After he was silent for a moment, a fierce look flashed on his face, and a spiritual light appeared on his hand, and he was about to crush the jade pendant.
The young man in white's pupils shrank.
"Stop! What are you doing? Stop it!"
The young man in white's expression suddenly changed. He was obviously very nervous about the jade pendant. He was about to pounce on Ye Chunyang while howling, but he was still a step too late. "Crack" a sharp sound of hard objects breaking came, and the jade pendant turned into powder in Ye Chunyang's sneer.
"Ah!"
This jade pendant was obviously very important to the young man in white. He watched Ye Chunyang destroy it, and his expression was ferocious. However, just when he was about to move, a strong light suddenly spread on the stone platform below. The young man in white made a slight contact and kept screaming in pain. A strange green smoke spread over his body and soon filled the entire underground mud cave.
Hearing the shrill screams from the white mist, Ye Chunyang couldn't help but step back a few steps and tightened his Qiankun bag to be ready to use magic weapons and talismans at any time.
But at this time, his face suddenly changed. In the strange mist, along with the screams, there were also strange sounds of sharp grinding of teeth, like bones rubbing, but extremely stiff.
When the strange mist dissipated, Ye Chunyang suddenly took a breath of cold air and his scalp became numb.
Under the strong light, the flesh and blood of the young man in white was burned, and he became a white skeleton, emitting a strange aura.
It was at this time that Ye Chunyang discovered that the aura of the skeleton was the gas that the spirit-tailed marten used to stun Zhang Sanqi and others. Judging from its ghostly appearance, it was probably some kind of demonic ghost cultivator, so when the ghost king first saw the spirit-tailed marten, he was alarmed.
"Who are you?" Ye Chunyang's eyes shot out cold light, and he bravely sacrificed the ancient treasure golden mace and asked coldly.
The ghost aura of the young man in white was amazing. It seemed that it was not someone else who set up this cave, but himself, but he didn't know why he wanted to seal himself up.
And he had just sensed that although the jade pendant had strange fluctuations, it was not a forbidden spell. If it were an ordinary person, he might be deceived, but with Ye Chunyang's powerful consciousness, how could he hide it from him.
Although he didn't know why the young man in white lied, there must be something strange in it!
At this moment, he had clearly sensed that although the young man in white was burned into a half-human monster by the strong light, he still had consciousness in his body, but he was temporarily trapped in the stone platform and could not get out.
He immediately raised his alert.
"Hehe! The kid is quite scheming. I have been sealed here for hundreds of years and lured countless foundation-building monks. I didn't expect that you would see through it. But since you are here, you can't escape the fate of being swallowed by me anyway!"
The withered teeth of the white skeleton trembled up and down, making bursts of sharp sounds.
Ye Chunyang's face changed drastically. Sure enough, this person had a big conspiracy!
But before he could think about it, a cracking wind suddenly passed through his ears, and a white bone claw extended from the white mist, and actually scratched his protective air shield.
Ye Chunyang felt a chill in his heart. Although this move came unexpectedly, fortunately he was prepared. Seeing the bone claw grabbing, he immediately raised the golden mace upwards. At the same time, he took out a body-changing talisman in his hand, transformed it into a shape with the surrounding mud, and instantly escaped several meters away.
With a loud bang, the bone claw shook the golden mace apart and grabbed it directly. If Ye Chunyang had not avoided it early with the body-changing talisman, he would have become a dead body at this moment.
The attack missed, and the half-human, half-ghost skeleton let out a sharp howl, and the ghostly aura in the empty eyes was eerie, like a Shura crawling out of hell, revealing an incomparable hideousness.
Ye Chunyang did not hesitate. After standing firm, he recalled the golden mace and chanted a spell. The temperature in the cave rose rapidly, and the fierce three-flavor true fire rolled back to the skeleton.
A few sounds of fire explosions were heard, and the whole mud cave was like a gust of wind sweeping fallen leaves. All the ghost fog was burned away, and the extended bone claws were forced back.
Ye Chunyang was delighted. Obviously, the most yang and fierce three-flavor true fire was the most effective to deal with these evil things.
After the ghost fog dissipated, he looked at the stone platform again. Sure enough, the half-human and half-ghost skeleton was lying there as if it had lost its ghost power.
Ye Chunyang was not too surprised by this, but rather a little hesitant. The attack of the ghost just now was amazing. It was too easy to subdue it with just a three-flavor true fire.
Frowning, he clasped the golden mace tightly, concentrated his mind and walked towards the white skeleton. Although he still didn't understand what the other party was, in order to ensure his own safety, he must eliminate all potential threats.
Near the stone platform, the skeleton was still motionless, and it looked like it had lost all its consciousness, leaving only this skeleton.
However, when Ye Chunyang looked closely at it, he found that the skeleton was tied with red iron chains, which were branded with spells. It was obviously forbidden. The chains extended from under the stone platform and passed through the skeleton's collarbone. Even the tendons of the hands and feet were tied together, as if it was trapped here to death.
Ye Chunyang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. There were evil methods in the magic way that could turn the dead into zombies, but he had never seen a spell that could keep the corpse from turning into a living corpse after death, and retain consciousness. Such a half-human, half-ghost evil thing was something he had never seen before.
From this point of view, the skeleton asked him to take out the jade pendant not as a token of help, but had a lot to do with this person's self-sealing. It was just that it was accidentally crushed by him and became the current situation.
Ye Chunyang felt a chill in his heart. If he hadn't been cautious, he would have been fooled by the other party.
"Since the Three Flavors True Fire is its nemesis, I will simply burn all its bones to ashes!" In anger, Ye Chunyang spewed out the Three Flavors True Fire again, determined to burn this evil thing to ashes.
But at this time, something strange happened. The eye sockets of the skeleton, which had originally lost their light, suddenly flashed a red light, and became evil. Before Ye Chunyang could use the Three Flavors True Fire, the skeleton's mouth made strange sounds of "crackling" and "crackling", as if mocking, and a pair of bone claws grabbed at him at lightning speed.
Ye Chunyang's face was stern. Sure enough, this evil thing was pretending to be dead, luring him to get closer.
But this thing was too evil. Although it was pretending to be dead to lure him, as long as the consciousness was still there, Ye Chunyang could sense it with the Soul Refining Technique. However, he had been approaching for so long but had never felt a single fluctuation. It was obvious that this ghost fog had an evil way to hide itself.
Ye Chunyang didn't dare to think too much. He sprayed out the three true fires and put his two fingers together to form a sword. In an instant, the golden swords were lined up above his head, splitting into dozens of phantoms and slashing at the skeleton. However, he only heard the sound of metal colliding. The opponent was unharmed, and the bone claw grabbed his left shoulder.
With a muffled bang, cold sweat broke out on Ye Chunyang's forehead. A sharp pain spread from his shoulder, and the bone claw seemed to have corpse poison. Once it entered the wound, green gas spread.
Ye Chunyang's heart sank, and he hurriedly took out the detoxification pill and took it, but at this time, he heard a sharp whistle again. The other bone claw of the skeleton suddenly reached his chest. The speed was so fast that it could only be described as thunder and lightning. It was about to pierce his chest.
At such an amazing speed, Ye Chunyang was half a beat slower even if he had some means. He immediately slapped the Qiankun bag without thinking, and the Tianlei Fu flashed in his hand.
With a clang, just as the skeleton's claws were about to pierce through Ye Chunyang's chest, it seemed to hit something. Ye Chunyang was startled, and when he looked down, he saw that the opponent's claws had actually grabbed the jade gourd hanging on his chest.
The skeleton seemed surprised, but before it could retract its claws and attack again, a fierce suction force suddenly surged out like a shocking tide, including the stone platform under it, and all the ghostly things around were swept in in an instant.
There were dots in the skeleton's empty eyes, as if it was extremely afraid of the suction of the jade gourd, and it was about to withdraw its hand while struggling.
Ye Chunyang's body shook, and he finally got rid of the suppression of the skeleton, but he saw the scene clearly, thinking of the scene of the jade gourd absorbing the ghost king in the Guangling Cave Mansion that year, could it be that the jade gourd has the effect of restraining ghosts?
Thinking of this, Ye Chunyang took off the jade gourd and offered it forward. Even if this thing could not deal with this half-human, half-ghost monster, at least it could buy some time, enough for him to cast the Heavenly Thunder Talisman.
Unexpectedly, the white skeleton saw the jade gourd flying over, and suddenly struggled and screamed, as if it had encountered some kind of nemesis, and the sound was extremely terrifying. But Ye Chunyang did not give it a chance to breathe. He used all his spiritual power to slap the gourd, and a strong wind blew instantly.
Taking this opportunity, he pinched his fingers and chanted a spell, and threw the Heavenly Thunder Talisman together. I believe that with the power of the half-spiritual talisman, even if this evil thing does not die, it will lose half its life!
But what happened next was completely beyond his expectations. The white skeleton suddenly emitted a series of "bang bang" and "bang bang" harsh sounds, and the rune chains around it were all broken. In a horrified hissing, it turned into a white light and was sucked into the jade gourd.
