Chapter 2072
Could this monster be a human in disguise?
Fan Yaodong originally intended to capture the monster alive and bring it back to Lu Chen, but the monster's abilities made them feel extremely troubled.
Even the minds of Earth Realm experts like them are affected; those spiritual warriors with weaker minds and lower strength are even more susceptible to influence.
Therefore, this monster must not be allowed to live.
Fan Yaodong gripped the Demon-Slaying Blade tightly, channeling the spiritual energy within his body into it, and then swung the blade.
Fierce Mountain Slash!!!
With a single swing, the blade's aura instantly slashed towards the monster.
The blade was fierce and domineering, carrying earth and stones that surged within it. Its blade light was like a mountain cliff collapsing, and when it slashed horizontally, it seemed to cleave out the phantom of mountains. Its imposing aura made the entire courtyard tremble.
However, the monster did not dodge.
It raised its massive claw and slapped it against the blade that was slashing towards it.
Its claws collided with the blade's aura, and the aura exploded instantly.
After the dark blue-black spirit exploded, smoke enveloped the monster. When the smoke cleared, the monster was still standing in the same spot, unharmed, except that its black robe had been blown open, revealing its true form.
However, upon seeing the monster's true form, everyone present was once again stunned.
The monster's body was covered in eyes, and the pupils of those eyes were constantly moving.
A sense of fear rose in people's hearts, a fear that shot straight to the top of their heads, making their scalps tingle.
Fan Yaodong reminded everyone again: "Don't look into its eyes."
This monster is very good at mental attacks. He only made eye contact with one of its eyes and felt his mind shake, and he couldn't even hold his knife properly.
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's reminder, the Earth Realm experts of the Town Ghost Division quickly came to their senses and no longer held back.
The next moment, the Ghost Suppressors unleashed a barrage of martial arts techniques on the monster.
For a time, the sound of spiritual energy explosions echoed continuously throughout the Qin family's backyard.
But to everyone's surprise, the monster was still able to handle the siege of the powerful members of the Zhengui Division with ease.
The main problem is that the eyes on the monster are constantly affecting people's minds. People always lose their focus when they attack, and they find that the backlash from the evil spirits is intensifying.
When humans use spiritual energy, their bodies are corroded by it, which is extremely harmful to the human body.
Therefore, most martial artists will not use spiritual energy unless absolutely necessary.
However, in order to deal with this monster, all the guardians present used their spiritual energy.
Although my body is usually eroded when I use spiritual energy, it's never been as noticeable as it is today.
Perhaps it was because the monster's eyes were weakening their will and reducing their tolerance for pain that the backlash from the evil spirits felt so intense.
Everyone present felt as if their entire body was being slowly tortured by countless tiny knives, experiencing excruciating pain.
Fan Yaodong stared at the monster before him with a solemn expression.
I thought those few Ghost Kings were difficult enough to deal with, but now there's a monster even more difficult to deal with than the Ghost Kings.
Could it be that they need to ask that Heavenly Realm expert from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to help?
This was a mission he had actively sought out; if he failed just like that, it would be too embarrassing for the Zhengui Division.
At this moment, Fan Yaodong jumped back onto the roof and said to the others in the courtyard, "Stop fighting, everyone. Use the explosive talismans and blast them hard!"
Upon hearing Fan Yaodong's words, the Zhengui Guards present immediately ceased their attack and quickly left the backyard.
The next moment, talismans radiating a bluish-black spiritual aura appeared in everyone's hands. These talismans had an extremely powerful explosive force.
However, using this talisman doesn't require consuming too much of their spiritual energy; just a trace is enough to activate it. Fan Yaodong planned to weaken the monster first, otherwise, if they continued fighting it like this, they would eventually be devoured by the backlash of their spiritual energy.
Immediately afterwards, everyone began throwing explosive talismans at the eye-covered monster in the courtyard.
The explosive talisman exploded violently as soon as it hit the monster.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom...
The Qin family's backyard shook violently, and the roof tiles were shaken and fell off with a loud crash.
However, it must be said that this tactic is indeed effective.
The spiritual energy generated by the explosion enveloped the monster. After the spiritual energy covered the monster's eyes, people felt much more relaxed.
Although they tried their best not to look into the monster's eyes during their attack, the monster was covered in eyes, and they would inevitably see them by accident.
Their minds would be affected simply by looking into the monster's eyes.
Now, by using the explosive talisman, not only will it not consume a large amount of spiritual energy within the body, but it can also affect the monster's mental attack.
As the explosions continued, people had fewer and fewer explosive talismans left.
Xiong Qingcang said with heartache, "So many explosive talismans, all given to this monster, what a waste."
The materials used to make the Explosive Talisman are quite precious; one Explosive Talisman is worth ten taels of gold. With that explosion they just made, hundreds of taels of gold were gone.
Normally, the Zhengui Division does not use explosive talismans; they are reserved as trump cards.
Although they were not in a life-or-death situation at this moment, this monster was too strange, and they had to deal with it carefully. They still had to use the explosive talisman.
As the evil energy of the exploding talisman gradually dissipated, the monster's figure reappeared before people's eyes.
At this moment, the monster was covered in thick black blood, and many of its eyes had been blown out, making it look extremely wretched. However, it was still standing upright in the courtyard, seemingly unharmed, with only wounds on its body surface.
This made Fan Yaodong very worried, as the monster's physical strength had definitely surpassed that of the few Ghost Kings.
However, this monster is unlikely to be immortal. If a monster of this level is immortal, then they are in trouble.
Fan Yaodong gripped the Demon-Slaying Blade tightly once more, leaped off the roof, and headed straight for the monster.
He simply refused to believe that with the combined strength of several Earth Realm experts, they couldn't kill this monster today.
However, at that moment, the monster suddenly fled towards the southwest corner of the Qin residence.
Its massive body smashed down all the buildings in its path, and dust billowed everywhere.
Seeing that the monster was trying to escape, Fan Yaodong quickly said to the people of the Zhengui Division, "We can't let it get away."
They had finally managed to encounter the monster from the Yellow Springs Cult, and if this monster escaped, it would be difficult for them to encounter such a monster again in the future.
The next moment, everyone from the Zhengui Division chased after the monster, but the monster was very fast. In the blink of an eye, it had left Fan Yaodong and the others more than ten feet behind.
Furthermore, people noticed that as the monster ran, its figure seemed to gradually shrink.
Soon, its body shrank to the size of a human.
However, because the monster had its back to the people of the Zhengui Division, they could not see its appearance clearly, only that its back looked very human.
This led Fan Yaodong to wonder if the monster was actually a human in disguise. (End of Chapter)
