Chapter 55
Ropes
"The people in this village are too fragile. It's a miracle that they've survived for over sixty years."
Qin Lie observed coldly from the sidelines before speaking.
"It is said that this place was once occupied by a great master of Falun Dafa. Back then, he took away and refined the spiritual veins and primordial energy of this area, so most of the spirits and monsters were unwilling to stay here."
"Only the lowest-level lantern ghosts, which do not require much energy to thrive, can multiply here."
Liu Dachuan seemed to be deep in thought.
The many monsters invading Black Mountain Village right now were clearly driven here by the weasel spirits.
Just as everyone was fighting fiercely.
Suddenly, a path parted from the group of spirits, and a humanoid creature slowly walked towards them.
It was about seven feet tall, with a faint smile on its face, and already possessed a hint of human agility.
Looking at this familiar place, its tone became tinged with emotion: "It's unbelievable that people still live in this barren land. How many years has it been since our clan last came here?"
"Squeak squeak squeak—"
Seven or eight weasels stood upright and followed closely beside him, making calls as if in response.
They have not yet been able to take human form, and they speak only in their tribal language.
It is evident that his cultivation level is not high.
"You little guys remember it quite well. Yes, it's been over a hundred years."
It smiled, its gaze lingering on the campsite ahead, and said softly:
"Go ahead, after tonight, you bunch of grandnephews should be able to speak human language and keep me entertained."
Immediately.
The weasels beneath it, their eyes gleaming with a fierce light, rushed out one after another!
The weasel, which had already taken human form, sneered when it saw the wall that had been built up.
The ten fingers were already intertwined and flying, forming a complex and mysterious hand seal.
"A mere low-grade earthen wall dares to block my way? Open it!"
Under the moonlight, it slashed its claws across the empty space ahead.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the wall at the campsite south of the village!
Then came the second crack, the third crack...
In an instant, a large gap appeared in the entire stone wall, and it collapsed inward with a loud crash.
Some people didn't have time to react and watched helplessly as the stone wall collapsed, losing their lives on the spot under the rubble.
The humanoid weasel watched this scene with satisfaction and muttered to itself:
"After a century of arduous cultivation, the Mountain-Opening Claw Technique has finally achieved some success. How can insignificant humans possibly stand against me?"
……
"not good!!"
Upon noticing the collapse of the stone wall, Tang Jing and the others' expressions changed drastically.
The next moment, several murky yellow lights shot in from the hole, attacking anyone they saw. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen villagers screamed and fell to the ground.
They looked closely.
The culprit tonight is none other than the weasel!
Tang Jing gripped his longsword and faced a pouncing weasel. The longsword clanged as the weasel's claws landed on the blade, sending sparks flying.
If he hadn't reacted in time, he would already be seriously injured.
puff-
Liu Dachuan, standing nearby, had a cold and stern expression. He forcefully pierced the weasel with his long knife, impaling it on the blade.
"Squeak squeak squeak!!"
The weasel has amazing vitality, constantly screaming and struggling on the knife.
Liu Dachuan's face hardened, and he sliced the creature in half with his long knife!
The weasel finally lost the strength to struggle.
Upon seeing this, the other weasels immediately turned red with rage, abandoning their prey and charging madly at Liu Dachuan.
They are a very vengeful group, and now they regard Liu Dachuan as a mortal enemy, determined to fight to the death.
A large number of monsters poured in from the hole, and it looked like the entire camp was about to be submerged.
Liu Dachuan's eyes darkened:
"We can't stay here any longer."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a bundle of rope from his pocket, his tone urgent:
"Everyone hold onto the evil-suppressing rope, let's retreat!"
Tang Jing and his companions moved swiftly, grasping the evil-suppressing rope and pulling it up to surround everyone.
As soon as they grasped the rope, it emitted a warm sensation, exerting some kind of magical effect that immediately deterred the surrounding monsters from approaching!
"Wait for us! Wait for us!"
Upon seeing this, everyone rushed over and squeezed inside.
Those who couldn't keep up could only scream and die under the onslaught of the monsters.
……
A white jade disc hangs high in the night sky.
Outside Heishan Village.
On a mountaintop near Black Mountain, a pale-skinned humanoid spirit stood in the darkness, unconsciously absorbing the essence of moonlight.
at this time.
A woman with a hunched back slowly stepped forward.
She moved with graceful elegance, paying no heed to the one-eyed demon, and casually sat down on a rock beside it.
Looking down at the activity in Heishan Village in the distance.
A slight smile curved at the corners of her lips.
"This time, we really owe a great debt to Brother One-Eyed for his help, which allowed us to drive so many monsters here."
"My Huang family has gained popularity in the village and can nurture many descendants who can transform into human form."
She glanced with a smile at the one-eyed ghost beside her, who was expressionless and absorbed the moonlight without a care in the world, and continued:
"If the overall strength of my Huang family can be further improved, we will never forget Brother One-Eyed's help. We will definitely help Brother One-Eyed to cultivate his spiritual wisdom as soon as possible, so that he will no longer have to suffer in this confusion."
The one-eyed demon seemed not to hear anything and remained unmoved.
It simply relied on its instincts to absorb the moonlight in the dark night of the full moon, feeling a cool energy surge into its body, which felt extremely comfortable.
After a while, it felt its body become stronger. Although it didn't know what the benefit was, it seemed to feel pretty good.
It will come again next time.
But there seemed to be something nearby that was constantly making squeaking noises.
Why does this thing keep making noise?
What happened?
The one-eyed demon's gaze was vacant, and his mind was completely unable to function.
Not long after.
It forgot about the thing beside it.
But soon, it noticed the woman beside it and a faint sense of awareness returned.
Why does this thing keep making noise?
Then it forgot.
This process was repeated over and over.
Throughout the entire conversation between the woman and it, it showed absolutely no reaction.
……
Just as Master Huang was about to find a comfortable place to lie down, he sensed that many of his grandnephews had suddenly died!
"What's going on!"
It sat up abruptly.
"We've already lured away the strongest individuals in this village, so dealing with the remaining humans should be a piece of cake. How could Xiao Shi and the others have died!"
soon.
It saw a group of people walking out of the camp, their bodies wrapped in ropes, and evacuating.
Master Huang stared intently at the burly man at the head of the group.
The aura of his great-nephew is in this man!
Master Huang, gritting his teeth, suddenly lunged forward, his voice icy cold.
"You brat, prepare to die!"
clang--
Sensing the approaching danger, Liu Dachuan quickly turned around and swung his sword, causing sparks to fly.
Master Huang was horrified and took several steps back.
"Ninth level of the Qi and Blood Realm!"
"Damn it! No wonder our spell to demand the seal failed today; it must have been this person's doing!"
