Chapter 856: Chapter 856 Qiao Yunshen’s Little Gourd
In that instant, Jiang Xiaobai felt his whole body bristle.
Are you kidding me? If this guy succeeds, how can that be allowed?
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t understand why this thing was waiting here for these inheritances and treasures and whatnot.
But the most pressing matter right now was to get Qiongyu out of danger!
There was no way he could let this son of a bitch erase Qiongyu’s soul and then possess her!
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t hesitate for a moment; he lifted his hand and struck with his sword. The power of a Houtian Lingbao was still extremely formidable; even if this guy had immortal bones, he could still shatter them!
...
However, the skeleton clearly recognized the power of Jiang Xiaobai’s Yuanhong sword and dodged the attack with incredible speed.
He looked at Jiang Xiaobai, the flames in his eyes flickering violently.
“Kid, this treasure is really something else. I have roamed three thousand worlds and have never seen anything like it,”
“I told you before, it’s mine now!”
“Just wait until I’m done with this girl, and then it’s your turn. Rest assured, I won’t be too kind to you.”
With that, a ball of flame appeared in the skeleton’s hand, enveloping Qiongyu on the spot.
And in that moment, Qiongyu, who was struggling, fell unconscious.
Then, the skeleton vanished in an instant, with no indication of where he had gone!
“Fuck your grandpa!”
“Is this how you play? Is this how you screw people over?”
Jiang Xiaobai cursed furiously.
Who would have thought that the legendary inheritance was actually for this guy to select a suitable vessel?
Indeed, human hearts can be vile. Jiang Xiaobai, young and inexperienced, had been severely duped.
“You bastard, just wait, let the young master check the system’s shop.”
Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly, continuously browsing the system shop.
He now had over twenty million points, which ought to be enough, but for the moment he couldn’t think of a good way to deal with the situation.
What was more important was that he had no idea where the skeleton had gone!
Having no other choice, Jiang Xiaobai immediately deployed his Zixiao Yuanshen, searching every corner of the grand hall with his terrifying power.
He found no sign of either the skeleton or Qiongyu.
“He must have run outside, but where could he go…”
Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes: “Outside is filled with geniuses from other forces; this guy definitely couldn’t have gone out there, so he must have found some place within the underground palace…”
“Shit, this isn’t good. Qiao Yunshen and the others are in danger!”
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.
This was becoming a massive problem.
He tried to use a transmission token to contact the outside, but it was futile; the skeleton had already used some special technique to shield and seal the underground palace.
Afterward, Jiang Xiaobai felt his head buzzing.
“Screw it, first I have to break out!”
After consulting with the system, it recommended him an item worth over three million points that could break the seal set by the skeleton.
Once the seal was broken, he didn’t hesitate and rushed towards the underground palace’s passageway, continually unleashing the power of his Zixiao Yuanshen to search for any trace.
Every second was crucial at this moment!
…
In another direction of the underground palace’s passageway, a few people were leisurely following Qiao Yunshen’s lead, as if they were sightseeing.
“See, I told you, there’s no danger here.”
Qiao Yunshen boasted, “Don’t worry, Xiaobai must also be inside. As we walk, we may well encounter him unexpectedly.”
“But this place is like a maze; who knows where Jiang Xiaobai could be? What if we miss him along the way?”
Han Yulong raised an eyebrow. “I think the priority should be to find the exit. Then we can call others to help search for Jiang Xiaobai, no problem.”
Han Yulong never really liked Jiang Xiaobai, and the incident with Song Xue had only fueled his jealousy!
“Why can you, Jiang Xiaobai, just arrive at the Purgatory God Sword Sect and get involved with a great beauty like Sister Song Xue?”
“I’m not any uglier than you!”
But Qiao Yunshen had a different thought: “Why go up there when the underground palace here is so much fun? There’s no danger, and even though it’s a bit dark, the maze is really interesting!”
“And what do you mean by that? Have you forgotten that Xiaobai is part of our group?”
“We can’t just not save him!”
Qiao Yunshen warned Han Yulong as he looked at him.
Han Yulong’s face turned red with embarrassment, his little schemes laid bare.
The others also gave him a cold, mocking glance.
Indeed, within the Sword Sect, there were grudges between disciples, but they were usually laughed off internally. Generally, they wouldn’t escalate these grudges to the outside.
Han Yulong’s behavior was indeed somewhat contemptible.
With no other choice, they could only continue to move through the passages of the underground palace, hoping they might encounter Jiang Xiaobai.
They were also worried about the elf woman who had entered before them.
Just as the group turned a corner, they suddenly saw two clusters of red light ahead.
In such a pitch-black corridor, encountering such a thing was truly terrifying!
A sense of panic spread subtly among them.
No one knew what really lay in this place.
“Don’t be afraid, we have so many True Immortals here,” Qiao Yunshen bravely shouted. “Let’s go forward, I don’t believe with so many of us we can’t deal with it?”
The rest nodded in agreement, although their thoughts were different from Yun Shen’s.
Everyone knew the underground palace was only so big. Even if they avoided the threat now, who’s to say they wouldn’t encounter it again?
They might as well face it head-on.
The group slowly approached, and as they did, the red flames became brighter, and the outline of a skull emerged.
To their shock, the skull was sitting cross-legged on the ground with a woman lying in front of it.
It was the elf woman who had led them into this place!
At this moment, Qiongyu’s face was slowly being covered by black lines, making the stunning face appear disturbingly eerie.
Both the person and the skull were lying on the ground, motionless.
It must be said that Qiao Yunshen was incredibly brave to dare to poke the skull with her finger.
But there was no reaction at all.
“Good lord, what’s going on here?” Yun Shen became curious. “Can any of you make sense of this?”
The people behind her shook their heads one after another. They did not perceive any energy fluctuations from either the skull or the woman.
It was as if they were dead.
Yet the red flames in the eye sockets of the skull were still flickering, and Qiongyu’s chest continued to rise and fall rhythmically.
The situation was indeed bizarre.
“Um, I think we should be careful and better not touch anything recklessly,” Su Qingchen cautiously said. “I have a feeling this skull is terrifying.”
“Ahaha, what’s there to be afraid of? Don’t worry, I’ll protect you!” Qiao Yunshen boasted, patting her chest, then gazed into the skull’s eye sockets, lost in a trance.
While everyone was contemplating, a small gourd appeared in Qiao Yunshen’s hand.
“Wait, you…”
Before Su Qingchen could stop her, Qiao Yunshen had already brought the mouth of the gourd close to the flame.
In an instant, the gourd became turbulent, and a terrible suction force coalesced at its opening.
The red flames were visibly being drawn into the gourd, little by little!
