Chapter 182: The Death of Hook Snake and Fu Jiu (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
With the help of the bone demon, Hook Snake was barely able to hold its ground against the ancient corpse.
Although the four arms of the ancient corpse were powerful and could easily destroy a bone demon every time, however, after one bone demon fell, a new bone demon quickly stood up.
It was as if these guys could resurrect indefinitely.
Under such circumstances, these bone demons played a very good role.
Although their attacks weren’t strong, they were extremely insulting.
He could always stop the ancient corpse’s movements at a critical moment.
For example, when the ancient corpse wanted to attack, several bone demons would go forward and hug it.
This kind of shameless tactic brought a lot of trouble to the ancient corpse.
Hook Snake naturally wouldn’t let go of the opportunity created by the ancient corpse.
His huge snake tail suddenly lashed out, continuously attacking the ancient corpse’s body.
The tail had a simple spike that contained a terrifying venom.
Without the venom, it was obvious that it could not pose much of a threat to the ancient corpse.
However, when the venom accumulated to a certain extent, even an existence like the ancient corpse began to change.
A large number of poisonous spots began to appear on the ancient corpse’s body.
There weren’t many spots at first.
However, as the spots slowly occupied more than half of the ancient corpse’s body, its movements slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this point, both Hook Snake and Lu Yuan, who was far away, had discovered the weakness of the ancient corpse.
Perhaps it was because its divine soul was incomplete, or perhaps it was because this was not its body, it resulted in the difficulty for the ancient corpse to use powerful divine ability.
The only thing it could rely on was the terrifying body that could crush the body of most Core Formation Stage cultivators.
Without Lu Yuan’s help in the shadows, the ancient corpse should have been able to defeat the Hook Snake with its terrifying body.
After all, it was not easy for the Hook Snake to attack it.
However, Lu Yuan not only used an array to slow down the ancient corpse from absorbing the surrounding death aura.
He even used his paper men to create the bone demon army.
As a result, the body that the ancient corpse was proud of did not play much of a role.
However, an ancient corpse was still an ancient corpse. Even in such an unfavourable environment, it still found an opportunity.
As Hook Snake used his tail to attack the ancient corpse again, ancient corpse gave up on defence and chose to use its body to resist the Hook Snake’s attack.
Pfft!
Hook Snake’s sharp tail pierced through the ancient corpse’s body.
However, just as he was about to pull his tail back, he discovered that his tail was emitting an astonishing power.
Hook Snake soon discovered that there were a lot of tumors within the ancient corpse.
These tumors kept squirming and eventually turned into countless small suckers that sucked on his tail.
The two arms on the back of the ancient corpse also grabbed firmly at the tail of Hook Snake.
Under the two-pronged approach, Hook Snake suddenly realized that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.
As expected, he saw a human-like mocking expression on the ancient corpse’s face.
In fact, the face of the ancient corpse had also turned from a completely withered state to a half-human, half-corpse state.
It seemed that under the threat of death, the ancient corpse had given up part of its control over the divine ability, allowing Fu Jiu to control his body.
Fu Jiu looked at Hook Snake near him, his eyes revealed a crazed expression.
Then, a blood-coloured talisman suddenly appeared in his hand.
Feeling the shocking waves coming from the talisman, Hook Snake shouted in horror, “Are you crazy? How dare you use a magic talisman here!”
The so-called magic talisman referred to those talismans that were as powerful as magic items.
Although these magic talismans could only be used once.
However, the power displayed by such a magic talisman was no less than that produced by the self-destruction of a magic item.
The reason why Bai Dafei was able to severely injure Chen Yan previously was because of the astonishing shockwave produced by the explosion of the magic item.
Fu Jiu was undoubtedly doing something similar.
However, at such a close distance, he was also within the explosion range of the magic talisman.
Facing the terrified Hook Snake, Fu Jiu was very determined.
“Let me see who has better luck… between the two of us!”
After saying that, Fu Jiu activated the magic talisman in his hand.
Magic Talisman… mountain corpses and sea of blood!
Slash!
As the magic talisman shattered, a large amount of blood gushed out.
After the blood appeared, the air was immediately filled with a pungent rancid smell.
As for Hook Snake and Fu Jiu, who was the closest to the magic talisman, didn’t have time to escape.
Both parties had executed their defensive divine abilities almost at the instant the magic talisman exploded.
However, how could these hastily cast defensive divine abilities, withstand the astonishing power produced by the magic talisman.
As soon as Snake Hook used his defensive magic item, it didn’t take long before it was completely corroded by the blood.
It seemed that the blood was highly corrosive.
After losing his explosion-proof defence, Hook Snake could only hurriedly circulate the Heavenly Devil’s power in his body.
He covered his body with a large number of snake scales as a final form of resistance.
Just as Hook Snake finished doing this, the blood had already covered his body.
“Ah!”
A scream was heard from the pool of blood.
On the other side, Fu Jiu wasn’t any better than him.
At this moment, Fu Jiu’s defensive magic item was also completely devoured by the blood.
Then, his body was completely wrapped in blood.
As for Lu Yuan, after Fu Jiu took out the magic talisman, he had decisively left to a safe distance.
He looked at Fallen Dragon Valley, which was covered in blood in shock.
As expected, none of these people with luck were simple.
Fu Jiu first displayed his Ancient Corpse Transformation and then took out his magic talisman.
With this set of combined tactics, even a peak Core Formation Stage cultivator could be tricked by him if they were not careful.
On the other hand, Hook Snake was also not a simple person.
Although Lu Yuan had helped him in secret, however, it Hook Snake didn’t have enough strength, he would also be unable to force Fu Jiu to the point where he could only gamble his life.
However, no matter how strong these two were, the battle was almost coming to an end.
When the blood receded, two massively corroded people appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
At this moment, Hook Snake was in a very miserable state.
The tail that Fu Jiu had grabbed had already been completely corroded.
The flesh and blood on it had completely disappeared, leaving only a white bone.
Many parts of Hook Snake’s body were also highly corroded, exposing his bones.
Lu Yuan could even vaguely see his organs in the gaps between his bones.
On the other side, Fu Jiu wasn’t doing any better.
At this moment, he had already shed his Ancient Corpse Transformation and returned to his original appearance.
However, the ancient corpse seemed to have absorbed too much vitality from his body causing his hair to turn pale and his face to visibly aged.
However, this was secondary.
The biggest problem Fu Jiu faced was that he was the same as Hook Snake, having a large portion of his body corroded by blood.
The flesh on Fu Jiu’s arms had completely disappeared.
His whole body was also covered in corrosive wounds.
It was only because these two people’s strength was extraordinary or they would have died long ago with such injuries.
But even so, the two of them breathed in less and breathed out more.
When Lu Yuan saw this, he also knew that it was finally time for him to make a move.
Since the situation had developed to this point, he did not have too many concerns.
In the quiet Fallen Dragon Valley, other than the sound of Ithe heavenly thunderg, there was the sound of crisp footsteps.
After the footsteps appeared, Hook Snake and Fu Jiu turned their heads and looked in Lu Yuan’s direction.
When they saw that there was actually a third person here besides them, the two of them instantly understood what that strange feeling was during their battle.
At that time, the battle was intense and they didn’t have time to think.
Now that they thought about it calmly, it was as if there was a big hand adjusting their situation.
Every time one side gained an advantage, there would be changes other side immediately.
It turned out that all of this was secretly controlled by someone.
When they thought of this, Hook Snake and Fu Jiu revealed expressions of realization.
In the next second, green flames burned on their bodies.
A moment later, the two powerful people with the luck turned into ashes….
