The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 445: Scoring twice, but ultimately unable to escape ( words asking for monthly votes)
"Strange, strange. The Slit-Mouthed Woman has killed countless people. No matter how she answers a question, she will be stabbed with a pair of scissors. She is so violent and cruel, but the prefix of her seven emotions is actually 'love'?"

“The world is wonderful and really puzzling.”

While rushing at lightning speed, Xu Shu sighed silently in his heart and felt a little confused.

He originally thought that the other party should have a suffix like "Yin Shen·Wu", but he never expected it to be the word "love" which seemed to have nothing to do with it.

In fact, after learning that the targets of the secret realm crusade were these two acquaintances, Xu Shu had already started planning to recruit them.

The reason is simple. The countermeasure against the Slit-Mouthed Woman [Question and Answer Game] is close contact, which just meets the condition for the little jade Buddha to absorb people without any injury.

You should know that all the evil spirits swallowed and collected by the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin, except for the corpse dog, were obtained by Xu Shu one by one with his own hands. This speculation has been thoroughly confirmed by Wujie.

It can be absorbed as long as intercourse occurs, and the Slit-Mouthed Woman can only resist it after intercourse. How can such a God-given opportunity be missed?

Therefore, after Xu Shu determined through the Taichu Scroll that the other party was indeed an evil spirit with the seven emotions suffix, he immediately carried out the plan to the end.

In the end, he withstood a "thunderbolt" and saved the life of the slit-mouthed woman, and successfully seized the opportunity to let the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin take her into her harem.

Although it cost me a chance to resurrect, I gained something, so everything is still perfect.

The only drawback was that Lu Bingwei ran in too fast.

Xu Shu just died, subtracted one time, and entered the [Super Dimension Mode]. He was ready to take a leisurely look at what this small secret realm was all about.

As a result, when he turned around, he saw Lu Bingwei hurriedly breaking through the remaining barrier of the enchantment and rushing over to check the situation.

This made Xu Shu very upset.

Are you anxious about your mother? Are you King Gigi?
Sometimes it’s not a good thing when teammates are too strong!
Well, her strength was beyond my expectation. The killing power of the thunder technique she used just now was definitely at the level of a demigod...

Possessing a rare treasure? A one-time attack?

Xu Shu seemed to be lost in thought. Seeing that Lu Bingwei had already rushed to the vicinity of his "death point", in order to avoid being discovered that he had come back to life, he could only reluctantly end the super-dimensional mode, quickly return to the point, pretend to be polite, and get the matter over with.

In fact, originally, he was still thinking whether he should take out three purple crystals from Kamiya Haoye and lie that these were the things that exploded after the death of the Slit-mouthed Woman.

After all, when everyone is working together to clear a dungeon, it seems a bit bad for one person to secretly take away things.

But because Lu Bingwei arrived too quickly, Xu Shu had just "restored his body" and did not have time to take the things out of the storage bag and threw them on the ground.

Seeing this, Xu Shu decided to give up and lied to her that the girl with the slit mouth had run away.

I thought I couldn't explain it, and I would probably be suspected, right? Xu Shu planned to throw the crystal somewhere else when he started looking for it, just to make it look good.

Anyway, it had been agreed before everyone came in that the crystals of the two ghost kings would belong to them, and they only needed the bowl in the hand of the lasso.

Alas, but what I didn't expect was that she actually believed it directly! She rushed to support the battle on the other side!
In this case, Xu Shu was too lazy to waste any more words.

But then again, there were two things that made him feel a little confused.

One is that Lu Bingwei's palm thunder was so powerful that even with her strong physical body and the activation of Yang Shen's unique skill "Sad Farewell", she was still blasted into pieces in one second. It can be seen that this move cannot be resisted head-on.

But why are my clothes and other things not damaged at all?

Xu Shu thought that he would have to explain why he suddenly changed into new clothes after he came out.

The second question is...

"Why do they all have a small ball of light inside their bodies, hovering above their heads, making them look pointy?"

Xu Shu couldn't help but look at Gu Yueming's back and muttered secretly.

His stay in the super-dimensional mode just now was too short, so of course he focused his attention on the battlefield on the other side.

He saw Yan Huoxing, Ai Li and others who were fighting against countless ghost soldiers and Tomie's clones as easily as cutting melons and vegetables; he also saw a disheveled female ghost and Tomie's real body locked in a dry well to the north of the temple.

Also, a familiar bald man in the main hall - my old friend Lu Suo, was kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, looking haggard, holding a golden bowl in his hand and quietly beating a wooden fish.

In just a blink of an eye, Xu Shu found out the true whereabouts of several powerful enemies in this secret realm.

Under the real vision, all secrets are revealed.

This is the extreme confidence that the [Super Dimension Mode] brings to Xu Shu.

In the ruins, he knew that he was basically invincible!

However, it is worth mentioning that the state of the "noose" is very different from what we remember at the beginning.

He has obvious body mutations, with gills growing on his cheeks, a fish tail growing behind his butt, and a lot of octopus tentacles wriggling on his chin. He seems to have become a fish-man to a certain extent!
Xu Shu wondered if it was possible that the lasso had turned into a "mermaid". Perhaps he would get the answer soon.

Apart from that, just a quick glance revealed the small ball of light inside everyone's body.

Xu Shu didn’t know what this small ball of light was. Gu Yueming and Lu Bingwei both had one, and they looked similar.

In addition, the "Evil Apostles" Ai Li and Yan Huoxing also have them, but theirs are bigger and purer. Unlike the aunt and the microwave, there are some black tadpole-like dots swimming around in the light balls.

However, this pointed ball of light was not seen inside Zhang Runzhi's body.

Why is this?

Could it be that only women have this ball of light in their bodies, but not men?

That’s not right, Yan Huoxing is a man.

What are those black dots?
Could it be that he was saying that Ai Li was purer than Gu Yueming and Lu Bingwei, that the former had a healthy mind while the latter died in a dirty way?
This……

No way?
The former is Brother Cao Wo's "Evil Apostle", and Yan Huoxing doesn't seem to be a serious person at first glance. You see, he is more skilled in operating the mermaid than I am!
Or is this ball of light the remnant of the curse left by the "Yin God·Love" Slit-Mouth Woman?
That's not right, then why do Yan Huoxing and Ai Li also have it? They didn't fight with the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

It was really strange, and no matter how hard he tried to explain it, he couldn't figure it out... Xu Shu was puzzled. To be on the safe side, he thought for a while and asked, "Auntie, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

"um, I?"

When Gu Yueming heard this, he was slightly stunned at first, but then he reacted and quickly checked his body.

After all, she was very smart and realized that she might have suffered some hidden injury or something.

But after checking for a few seconds, Gu Yueming mumbled, his mouth humming due to the wind: "Nothing? Except for the one in my palm that you..."

"where?"

"No, nothing! I said I'm fine!" Gu Yueming said hurriedly with a slightly blushing face.

"Oh, I'm glad you're okay." Xu Shu nodded.

Since Gu Yueming checked himself and found that there was nothing wrong, it seemed that the white light ball should exist normally. Perhaps it was really because people’s structures were different.

At this point, Xu Shu thought that he could trust the "drama director" because he was a professional after all.

Now that we have discovered the locations of the two enemies in the secret realm, the most urgent task is to eliminate them quickly to avoid any more trouble.

Xu Shu didn't say anything more. He pushed Gu Yueming's waist and started to speed up, and soon caught up with Lu Bingwei.

The three of them rushed to the battlefield like lightning.

Here, in the square outside the main hall, the battle has entered a white-hot stage.

The ghost soldiers and zombies rushed forward like a tide, but lost their direction in the "death energy" and could only grab, bite and tear randomly.

Although their numbers are endless, the space in the square is extremely limited, which restricts their performance.

With the joint efforts of "Butcher" Zhang Runzhi, "Dragon Elephant" Yan Huoxing and "Fallen Apostle" Ai Li, these ghosts roared unconsciously and fell down in large numbers at the entrance of the Great Hall, just like gentian in the ground.

They seemed to be guarding this place instinctively, trying to stop everyone from going in. The sight of them rushing forward one after another and willing to die was quite moving.

If it weren't for their different positions and ethnic groups, Xu Shu would also have admired him.

But in the end it's like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

The biggest obstacle for everyone was those Tomie clones who had the same pretty face but showed different styles.

Some of them have smiling eyes and eyebrows like a close mentor, some have a gentle temperament like a lady from a noble family, their temperaments are all kinds of strange, and their outfits are also different, black silk queen, female boss in the workplace, widowed wife, spirited little sister...

This is an army composed of charming "Tomie" ladies who make men unable to stop.

They either spit fire, water, hair, mucus, blood and other things, using the most basic means to fight.

They kept dying, but there were never enough of them, just like the cockroaches that could never be completely killed. Once you killed one nest, there would be another, endlessly.

Obviously, fighting with this kind of ghost thing is completely useless. Only by finding its true body and destroying it can the battle end. Otherwise, it is purely a competition of "endurance" and an unskilled job.

Moreover, there are countless dead souls in this secret realm. Tomie can infect the surrounding dead souls and turn them into clones to continuously replenish her forces.

No matter how strong the dragon elephant's endurance is, it will be exhausted to death by her sooner or later.

Fortunately, thanks to the mermaid's help, she was able to release the silver bugs, which continuously devoured the killed Tomie clone. This allowed Yan Huoxing and the other two to hold on, and they also showed an attitude of vigorous vitality and the development of all things, hoping to win the battle.

Obviously, when some teams of extraordinary people came to attack this secret realm in the past, this was the combat strategy they adopted when facing Tomie's true self.

Even the position of Yan Huoxing and others at the entrance of the Main Hall was chosen with care, as this location was a node that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It is obvious that how to use the "grassworm" to restrain Tomie and draw out her true form has formed a detailed plan that can be called a "pass strategy".

When Xu Shu saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

I remember that in the legendary [The Ruins of the Dead], when I fought with Tomie, it took me several days and nights to kill all of Tomie's clones and force her real body to appear.

But at that time, the environment was not like it is now with the "City of the Wrongly Dead" with hundreds of millions of innocent souls, which allowed him and Tomie to compete directly in "endurance".

If the place was filled with ghosts like now, and Tomie had the advantage of time, place and people, and his clones could spread and replicate endlessly, Xu Shu didn't think Arthur could win, and he would probably just flee. Find another opportunity to fight again.

But now times have changed, even Tomie's seemingly unstoppable ability has met its natural enemy.

These "half-step soul" mermaids can restrain her resurrection. If the fish under Yan Huoxing's crotch was not only at the second level, the situation would probably be even more one-sided.

"Times are changing and progressing! Ancientness certainly means strength, but the newborn may not be inferior to the old!"

"This is the great creative ability of human beings!"

Xu Shu's eyes lit up as he spoke with deep understanding.

"..."

"..." Gu Yueming and Lu Bingwei looked at him in confusion, unable to understand Xu Shu's train of thought. They didn't know why he expressed such a lofty and noble opinion, as if he stood from the perspective of all mankind and did not seek short-term or eternal benefits.

Among those present, only the mermaid on Xu Shu's body knew what he was thinking.

Unfortunately, she couldn't say it directly, so she could only roll her eyes secretly, open her gills, and secretly spit out a lot of milky white gastric juice (which usually turbids the gastric juice). This relieved the pressure of the gradual abdominal distension.

“Hmph. Human men are all, hypocritical as expected…” the mermaid muttered with great difficulty.

She actually went berserk once just now, when Xu Shu inexplicably disappeared for a few seconds.

As a disposable prop, if it is not rough, it means that it is not loved. This is the essence of the mermaid's anger.

However, Xu Shu appeared inexplicably later and continued his love for her. The mermaid thought about it and decided to quietly restore her body and continue to be an obedient pendant.

At this time, Yan Huoxing and the others also noticed Xu Shu and the other two who had arrived.

However, Yan Huoxing was struggling to resist the damage and had no time to speak, so Zhang Runzhi had to speak: "Why are you here? Where is the Scissor Ghost? Have you solved it?"

"Ah, so fast?" Ai Li opened her mouth in surprise, but her hands were not idle. She continued to whip Yan Huoxing with the whip to cheer him up and improve his healing ability.

They had heard the huge explosion just now and knew that the battle on the other side was also very fierce.

But they were still extremely surprised to hear the news, because it had only been a short time since then, and not only had they finished the battle, they hadn't even started to come into contact with Tomie's true form.

There's such a huge difference in everyone's strength?

Being watched by three people, Lu Bingwei felt a little embarrassed and paused before saying, "No, she escaped."

"what?"

"Escape?"

"No way. There's so much information saying that the Scissor Demon won't stop until he's dead."

The three were extremely surprised.

Lu Bingwei was also surprised, but still said: "Perhaps the semi-god talisman I prepared scared her away. In any case, no trace of her was found at the scene."

"Uh..." Yan Huoxing and the other two fell silent.

They were obviously not as easy to fool as Lu Bingwei, but it was also very simple to verify whether this was true. Yan Huoxing was not in a hurry. He knew that Zhang Runzhi, as a "butcher", was quite sensitive to death. He would go over and find out the truth soon.

If the scissor ghost is actually dead, he will definitely not escape detection!

Of course, now is not the time to worry about this.

Yan Huoxing's eyes flashed and he said, "I didn't expect that the most troublesome scissor ghost was solved first... Brother Xu, you really gave me a surprise, hahaha! It's a pity that we couldn't kill her. In this case, let's concentrate on dealing with this side first. The real body of the clone ghost is about to appear. Let's redistribute the tasks. When she appears, you will be responsible for restraining her, and I will be the main killer!"

Because he was busy resisting the beatings from Tomie and others, he spoke quickly, but still expressed the complete content clearly.

Lu Bingwei didn't say much, obviously she already knew the plan, and she jumped down directly to join the battle. A circle of yellow talismans surrounded her body to protect her. She scalded and knocked to death the crystalless ghosts that pounced on her. She looked like a human-shaped scratching machine.

Xu Shu's eyes narrowed in surprise. He looked at the butcher next to him, then at Yan Huoxing: "You're the one who's in charge of the killing? Doesn't that thing have the ability to possess another's body after death?"

Yan Huoxing nodded and said, "Don't worry, Brother Xu, I will naturally find a way to deal with it!"

"……it is good!"

Xu Shu jumped down without saying a word and joined the battle.

He guessed that the ability was the corpse dog's "Bad Mouth Curse" and originally wanted to kill it himself, but in the end he resisted the damage of the curse and died by doing sit-ups.

Having had experience fighting zombie dogs, Xu Shu was still very confident.

However, Yan Huoxing seemed to be more confident than him. Xu Shu was slightly curious and decided to wait and see.

When the six of them joined together, their strength increased greatly and the situation immediately became one-sided. Tomie's clones were completely defeated and were devoured by the moss insects one after another, and their numbers became fewer and fewer.

As they fought and advanced, their front line moved to the north of the temple, and Tomie's clone who came to stop them was completely unable to resist.

In a short while, they arrived at the dry well.

Yan Huoxing immediately said: "Brother Xu, this is it! The real body of the ghost clone is at the bottom of the well. We will force it out later, and you will have to hold it alone!"

As he spoke, the wind whistled under his feet. Lu Bingwei next to him also stepped on the cloud talisman and flew into the air. She grabbed a handful of fire talismans and threw them into the bottom of the well, making a rumbling sound.

In the blink of an eye, an angry roar of a woman came from the bottom of the well, followed by the howling of the wind, the temperature around continued to drop, and the ice and frost gradually condensed, as if the severe cold was coming instantly.

"It's now!"

Yan Huoxing gave a look, and everyone retreated immediately, holding down the last few Tomie clones that were rushing over, and went to the outer circle to fight in pairs.

Xu Shu was left alone, standing in front of the well as a "target of hatred".

"Strange, I just saw Tomie Mami and another female ghost at the bottom of the well. They were in the right place, but since we're already here, why doesn't she just take action?"

"Also, since Yan Huoxing and the others wanted the bowl in Nozomi's hand, why did they go to the far end and first deal with Tomie who had obviously shown weakness and stopped fighting us?"

"Logically, since the crystal belongs to me, shouldn't they first try to get the spoils that belong to them to avoid any more trouble?"

"Why do you come to help me get our spoils first?"

"Are they all selfless and good people?"

Xu Shu looked back at the cellar under the main hall, then looked at the dry well in front of him, and his expression became a little strange.

However, there was no time to think about it, because this thought did not last long, and a pair of pale female hands appeared at the wellhead in front of Xu Shu.

pat!pat!
Cluck, cluck, cluck ~ Uh-huh ~ Cluck, cluck, cluck ~
With a creepy trembling sound, she grabbed the edge of the well, slowly revealing a little bit of messy long yellow hair, and gradually poked her head out of the well.

This is a terrifying ghost with a haggard appearance, huge dark circles under the eyes, and dry lips.

After climbing out of the well, she lay prone on the ground with her head raised high, staring at Xu Shu with a vicious look in her eyes and saying, "Ka-ka-ka-ka-ka-ka-ka~ Um-m-m-m-uh-uh!"

"..."

Xu Shu's expression froze, knowing that this was the female ghost who had just been with Tomie, or to be exact, the little ghost who was held in Tomie's arms.

But, isn’t it as if she is scolding me because of the creaking sound?

Isn't this method of attack too trifling?
Xu Shu looked at the Taichu Volume with a little confusion.

The Taichu Volume describes:

[Oh no, it's bad! You actually dared to come to the scary wellhead without permission. You are being targeted by two third-level corpse kings! ]

[The first to appear is an ordinary "Yang Shen", which is very powerful, at the middle stage of the third stage; at the same time, you are being noticed by the corpse king Tomie at the bottom of the well, who is a rare evil spirit with the suffix of seven souls - Yang Shen Corpse Dog! ]

[Both corpse kings are hostile to you at the same time. Tomie is equally hostile to everyone, and this ordinary third-level evil spirit is the daughter of the corpse dog Tomie. She is cursing at you loudly and wants to drive you out! ]

[She is not afraid of powerful enemies and wants to protect her mother. Her filial piety is so touching. Why don't we give it a name, Roaring Sky Dog? ]

[Cry, cry! Why don't you cry? Isn't this touching? You are worse than animals! ]

"Haha! Haha!" Along with the font, the first thing that appeared was the increasingly angry curses of the female little ghost king.

"..."Xu Shu was almost speechless.

God damn Roaring Sky Dog!
He didn't understand it before, but after being reminded by the Taichu Volume, Xu Shu felt that he understood it now.

This giggle probably means something like "get out" or "let me go".

At first glance, it does seem quite pitiful, with a bit of the tragedy of the eight major sects attacking Mount Wudang, and Xu Shu plays the villain.

However, as the saying goes, humans and ghosts are different, he would not have any mercy on this man-eating evil ghost.

Seeing the female ghost approaching Xu Shu and about to attack, Lu Bingwei, Yan Huoxing and others had already sent messages one after another: "Brother Xu, you attack this corpse king. It is the ghost guard of the clone, responsible for guarding the bottom of the well! Just hold on for a while, and when the ghost of the clone appears, leave everything to me!"

"Oh. Hold on for a moment?"

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement.

Then, without any hesitation, he grabbed "Roaring Sky Dog" by the neck and gave it an extremely fierce elbow strike.

boom!
The corpse king in the middle stage of the third stage was caught off guard and was thrown high into the air. His entire body broke into countless pieces and shattered into pieces, and he let out miserable screams and wails.

Before dying, it looked at Xu Shu with extremely hateful eyes. Before it could say another word, its body completely shattered and it died on the spot. Three scarlet curses spread, targeting only Xu Shu.

The next second, Xu Shu seemed to be struck by lightning. He fell to the ground and twisted like a baby maggot, chrysalis.

"what?"

"Be careful with the needle scar! Damn it! It's over!"

This happened so suddenly that the people who were ambushing not far away didn't even have time to react before the battle was over, which surprised Yan Huoxing and others.

The most surprised person was Zhang Runzhi. He originally wanted to release the "death energy" a little later to avoid alerting the ghost clone, but he was just a little late and Xu Shu actually made a move. It was too late for him to regret it.

To be honest, a mid-stage third-order corpse king is not that powerful. As a master on the human list, naturally, no one is too afraid of him.

But the one at the bottom of the well in the secret realm is difficult to deal with because there is a third-level peak "clone ghost" at the bottom of the well, watching closely. In the past, many "butchers" were killed by the "pie-in-the-wall" ghost after releasing the death energy. This thing is very insidious. Once the butcher releases the death energy, she will directly touch the porcelain and die, and then activate the possession curse to directly snipe and kill the butcher who is responsible for assisting outside the field. It can be said that it is hard to guard against.

So when they got here, they naturally had to be more careful. They had to let the clone ghost and the "dragon elephant" in the team collide head-on first. Once the fight started, the "butcher" could release his death energy to avoid being killed by her.

As a result, while everyone was still being cautious and hadn't released the death aura, Xu Shu actually killed the little corpse king, which was equivalent to the "clone ghost guard".

Now something went wrong. As soon as one looked at Xu Shu's twisted and struggling appearance, one knew that he must have been hit directly by the curse of "Corpse King Needle Scar". It was too late!

He is dying!

No one mentioned whether or not to save Xu Shu, because everyone knew that needle scarring was either a failure or a death sentence.

"How to do?"

"Forget it, I'll just go for it!" Yan Huoxing said.

After discussing it, they decided to accept the fact and let Yan Huoxing take over.

Anyway, the Scissors Ghost on the other side is gone, so one Dragon Elephant is enough to deal with just one clone ghost!
Among the crowd, only Gu Yueming hesitated for a moment and then stopped panicking.

She had encountered a similar situation once before in the hospital, so she was confident about it.

Sure enough, before Yan Huoxing could move, he saw Xu Shu standing up as if nothing had happened, patting his body and looking over here.

"Then what? How to do it?" Xu Shu asked, holding three fresh crystals in his hand, and put them away without any expression and politeness.

"Forehead……"

"What's going on?"

"Brother Xu, you...are you a human?"

Yan Huoxing, Zhang Runzhi and others looked at each other with surprise in their eyes, and began to wonder whether Xu Shu had turned into a corpse after being killed by the needle scar curse.

"What nonsense! If I'm not a human being, then what am I?" Xu Shu said unhappily.

“Uh.” Yan Huoxing was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, “Hahaha, Brother Xu is quite clever!”

Zhang Runzhi narrowed his eyes but didn't say much.

After confirming that Xu Shu was a living person, everyone didn't have time to discuss the next arrangements before a hand stretched out from the bottom of the well, with long black hair poking its head out.

Xu Shu took a closer look and then became extremely alert.

Tomie's real body is here! The third-level peak "Yangshen·Corpse Dog" cannot be underestimated!
"You, Bubu, killed my child. You want to bury him with you, Babu Babu..." Tomie stammered and said some very strange words.

Xu Shu was surprised to find that he could not understand what was being said, as if Tomie's language system had degenerated.

"Here she comes! Brother Xu, hold her back! Hold on for three minutes and let me make my move!" Yan Huoxing also saw Tomie appear, and immediately stopped thinking about the matter with the Corpse King Needle Scar. Instead, tiny flames began to emerge from his body, and his body temperature continued to rise.

Ai Li also said: "The level of the worm is not high enough to control him. Brother Xu Shu, let me help you!" Then she put a Vitality on Xu Shu, making him even more energetic. The mermaid was almost drooling.

Zhang Runzhi saw this and said in a voice transmission: "Brother Xu, be careful! Please use all your strength to contain it and don't give it a chance to attack!"

Then, he opened his mouth and spewed out bloody death energy, which was more condensed and brutal than Ainz's death energy, and spread rapidly.

However, it is worth mentioning that although Zhang Runzhi's deathly aura spread out, it circled around Xu Shu from a distance and did not come closer at all.

Obviously, although he said he wanted to provide support, he didn't really trust Xu Shu that much. He didn't directly contact the battlefield in case Xu Shu couldn't control his hatred and let him down.

"Hey, you're a cautious person."

Xu Shu raised the corner of his mouth. He didn't care about so many things. Since Tomie appeared, he would fight.

Even though he still had a life at stake, he was not afraid at all. He turned around and hit Tomie with his shoulder.

With a bang, a touching smile appeared on Tomie's lips, and her body immediately split apart in the impact, with blood scattering and splashing everywhere.

"Ah! Ah!"

While letting out a teeth-grinding scream, Tomie's broken body began to grow black hair, bloodshot, and tentacles, as if undergoing mitosis. She grew at an extremely fast speed, growing hands and feet, eyeballs, skin, claws, and was extremely terrifying.

She was going to follow Xu Shu's attack and split into many parts, turning into more Tomies to fight!

However, at this moment, a large number of silverworms surged out in front of Xu Shu, buzzing and covering the area in front of him, opening their mouths to bite.

While gnawing, the little octopuses "Mang" exerted their powerful ant-attachment effect and directly bit off most of Tomie's flesh and blood.

"Ba... Bu?!"

At this moment, many of the little Tomies' eyes widened.

She first carefully identified the mermaid on Xu Shu's waist. After concentrating for a while, she suddenly woke up as if from a dream. She showed a terrified expression, screamed, and ran away.

This scene is like a naughty kid who has stirred up a hornet's nest, and now he knows he has caused a disaster and starts to run away in fear.

Unfortunately, this was obviously a futile effort. After a short while, all the flesh and blood scattered in the air were devoured by the thorns, leaving not a drop behind.

Only the last real Tomie was left. She seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and her dry body would fall down if the wind blew.

"Baba!"

In just one encounter, she was already seriously injured!

Facing the bites of the third-level thorn bugs, she seemed to be no match at all. If she did not have a powerful flesh and blood resuscitation ability to stay alive, and if she did not continuously emit air waves to repel the thorn bugs, and forcibly open up a path to escape like Moses parting the sea, she would have been bitten to death on the spot.

This scene made Yan Huoxing and others, who were already sharpening their knives, fall into a daze again.

They had clearly prepared a lot of strategies to deal with the "clone ghost".

For example, Yan Huoxing uses his own special abilities to "burn the devil with fire" to restrain the possession of the body; for example, "Tianshi" Lu Bingwei will use sealing talismans to continuously weaken the opponent's abilities, and use this in conjunction with the death energy to further reduce the enemy's combat space, and ultimately kill with one blow, etc.

Many methods were considered, all of which were the best solutions analyzed based on the intelligence purchased.

But what no one expected was that before anyone could even react, Xu Shu caught a few fish and forced the notorious "clone ghost" to flee in panic.

This……

"is this real?"

"Is this ghost clone acting?"

"Could it be possible that she has discovered us?"

Yan Huoxing and the others were shocked and confused. For a moment they doubted their lives and were afraid to move. They just stood there like a fool.

However, Xu Shu was actually more surprised than them all at this moment.

After the fight, Taichujuan had already identified that Tomie was a third-level peak "Yangshen Corpse Dog".

As a result, she actually lost to this newly promoted third-level half-step soul?

This, this seems a bit too exaggerated!
This is simply a restraint like that of a natural enemy, and the degree of restraint is much stronger than when facing the Slit-Mouthed Woman before!
"Could it be that the corpse dog species is particularly restrained by this mermaid?"

"What do you think, corpse dog?"

Xu Shu touched the small jade Buddha, hoping to get a perfect explanation.

The little jade Buddha opened one eye and shouted angrily, "Makabaka, Waibibabu!"

"Stop barking, what are you talking about?"

Ji Yu helped translate: "Sir, Sister Corpse Dog said that it is not true, it is this fellow that brought shame to her."

"Oh, really?"

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows to show his disbelief.

This attribute suppression is obviously too severe. How can Tomie still be a dead dog? She has become a dog that has lost its home.

Perhaps the mermaid could sense Xu Shu's emotions and wanted to show off, so she blew bubbles even harder.

Gululu~Gululu~
A large number of grasshoppers were chopped into pieces by Tomie's long hair. The grasshoppers in front of her covered the sky and became even more ferocious.

For a moment, the whole scene was in great chaos. The grasshoppers covered the sky and blocked the view. It was almost impossible to see anything, let alone the outside world.

Seeing this, Xu Shu suddenly had an idea and came up with a bold idea.

He immediately stepped forward and chased after Tomie.

Tomie saw a human figure "covered with buzzing insects" running towards her. She was so scared that she ran away desperately.

The more she ran, the more Xu Shu chased her.

Finally, she was grabbed by Xu Shu and pressed to the edge of the well.

The spider took the opportunity to bite her crazily. Tomie was in great pain. She turned her head and begged for mercy with her pretty face with teardrops: "Wuwu... let go... help... Ba!"

"What the hell is this that I don't understand? Bring it to me!"

Xu Shu showed no mercy. He supported the mermaid's neck and stabbed her hard, reaching a place that even the Spirit King Arthur had never been to.

"Wow!?" Tomie widened her eyes in disbelief.

She lowered her head and looked at her bulging belly. Her Adam's apple rolled and she seemed to curse something, but she couldn't say it in the end.

The world is quiet.

Only Xu Shu was left, digging and digging in the small garden.

This set of operations was completed in a flash.

Three seconds later, Tomie felt as if she was being sucked in by the terrifying and solemn Buddha light, and her body fell backwards without being able to move.
It's like falling into an abyss, unable to extricate oneself.

Then, she saw a woman who was tied up and looked very ugly, who could arouse anyone's desire to violate her. She was staring at her.

A very familiar hometown dialect rang in my ears.

"Alas, dear friend, you also lost~"

……

……

Scored twice.

Xu Shu climbed out of the well, dressed himself neatly in the dense layers of protective moss, and wiped off all traces to avoid leaving any flaws.

Then he waved his hand and controlled the mermaid to take back the worm.

The five people who appeared in front of him were Yan Huoxing, Zhang Runzhi, Ai Li, Lu Bingwei and Gu Yueming, with slightly dazed and surprised looks in their eyes.

They looked left and right.

Finally, he set his sights on Xu Shu.

"Xu Shu, where is the clone ghost?"

"He ran away." Xu Shu said without blushing.

"Running away again?"

Everyone said in unison, and then turned their eyes to the "butcher" in the team.

Zhang Runzhi lowered his voice and said, "The aura of the ghost clone is indeed gone, and there is no smell of death here, except for the corpse king just now."

He paused for a long time, looking at Xu Shu and everyone else. After a while, he said with self-doubt, "It should be correct. He did run away."

"Yes, she ran away." Xu Shu looked frustrated and hammered the well mouth hard, saying, "I almost caught her! Damn, the scissor ghost ran away, and the clone ghost also ran away. Didn't I come here for nothing this time?"

"..."

Everyone looked at each other, speechless for a moment.

Finally, Yan Huoxing stood up and said, "Brother Xu, I was not considerate enough this time. I will make it up to you later. Next, let's go to the main hall and work together to capture the weird monk inside. How about that?"

Weird evil monk?

Gu Yueming's expression changed slightly, which reminded her of what happened in the hospital before.

Although she didn't know, Wujie's strength was actually not enough to defeat the "Scissor Ghost" and "Clone Ghost".

But there was no way. When facing Wujie, the oppressive feeling brought by the opponent was too strong, making her mistakenly believe that Wujie's strength was much stronger than here.

On the other hand, what are the scissor ghost and the clone ghost? They ran away before I even put in any effort.

Xu Shuze certainly agreed.

He was also curious about what happened to the long-lost Nose and why he became like this?

From the quick glance just now, Xu Shu felt that Lord Luso, who was known as "the strongest magician four hundred years ago", appeared to be in a daze and had little time to wake up, as if his later years were unknown.

Just about to find out!
The six of them hit it off immediately and returned to the south.

In front of the main hall, there were a large number of zombies and wronged souls standing there, and the place was crowded with people.

What's strange is that as the Slit-mouthed Woman and Tomie both "deserted from the battlefield", these dead people seemed to be affected to a certain extent, and their movements became stiff and slow.

Xu Shu and others didn't even need to try to avoid them, and they entered the main entrance of the Great Hall smoothly without any obstacles.

The dead stayed in the square, showing no intention of coming in. They even knelt down stiffly one by one and began to return to their original state of pious worship.

It seems that the inside and outside of the Great Hall is the sacred place they long for. Once they enter, there will be no more trouble.

"Interesting, haha. By the way, what should we pay attention to when dealing with this evil monk?" Xu Shu turned around and asked.

Everyone hesitated for a moment, looked at him and said, "Don't do anything, we can do it! We're afraid he'll run away too."

"Oh, okay then." Xu Shu scratched his head slightly embarrassedly and stood behind the crowd.

A few more steps forward, the entire hall came into view.

The huge Buddha statue faces the gate, looking forward with a compassionate gaze.

On both sides are various Bodhisattvas and Arhats, posing in different postures, as if overlooking the center of the hall.

There was deathly silence in the magnificent palace, except for the intermittent sound of a monk who looked half fishman sitting quietly and beating a wooden fish, which could be heard at an eerie frequency.

Dudu! Dudu! Dudu!

As everyone came in, the noose did not react at all. He just continued with his original action, tapping the bell, which was more monotonous and boring than the clock that announced the time.

It was as if he himself was just an unchanging Buddha statue.

For a moment, everyone's breath paused, and even their breathing slowed down.

It seemed that even though they came here to fight against this evil monk, they were also infected by the quiet and solemn atmosphere in the hall.

After walking a few steps, the monk stopped, slowly turned around, and glanced at him with a dull gaze.

His eyes were lifeless and out of focus, just like a puppet.

"careful!"

Yan Huoxing immediately became alert and stopped as well.

This sudden change made everyone's heart jump to their throat.

Even though there are many experts, they dare not underestimate this strange existence.

For a moment, the noose "looked" at everyone.

Everyone looked at the monk.

The eerie silence lasted for more than three minutes.

Finally, Lu Bingwei took a step forward.

She made a strange seal with her hands, and her pupils suddenly turned into two eyes, which looked weird and mysterious. She walked straight towards the noose step by step!
"Hello?" Xu Shu wanted to call her, worried that she was under the mental control of the noose.

After all, in the memory, this guy is a "summoning" warlock. Although his combat ability is not strong, he seems to be very accomplished in mental power.

However, just as Xu Shu was about to speak, he was stopped by Zhang Runzhi, Yan Huoxing and others, who hushed him, signaling him not to interfere.

Seeing this, Xu Shu guessed that everything was within their judgment and said no more.

It is worth mentioning that he took a step back and found that his aunt had also stood over and stood behind everyone.

"..."Gu Yueming looked at him and looked away with a little embarrassment.

This was just a small episode, and everyone was waiting for Lu Bingwei's move.

She was getting closer and closer to the noose, and the other party didn't react at all. The distance was thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters, getting closer and closer.

At this moment, the noose's neck suddenly trembled slightly, and its dry and rotten lips opened and closed, letting out a sigh, and said weakly:
"It's finally here, after all..."

“It’s hard to escape!”

"What is that?" Everyone was puzzled. Yan Huoxing and others exchanged glances, as if this was not quite what they had imagined.

Xu Shu's pupils shrank.

"This tone is not that of a noose... Wait, could it be that he is?"

Xu Shu was filled with doubt and confusion. The sound of the noose was completely different from what he remembered. Instead, it seemed like another entity!
But as soon as the noose finished speaking, its head spun off its neck and fell off.

It was as if a piece of dilapidated furniture had fallen apart and, with a snap, fell upon the golden bowl in his left hand, coincidentally.

Immediately, the head broke into pieces in the bowl.

The blood coagulated, but did not splash everywhere. Instead, it became a lump and was placed in the bowl, just like a blooming lotus.

The body of the noose, maintaining an upright posture, slowly dissipated, the fine particles withered away, leaving nothing behind.

"This……"

Lu Bingwei was stunned for a moment, and Yan Huoxing and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

he died!
Everyone risked their lives to enter the main hall and get close to this evil monk.

But there was no time to fight, no time to communicate, he just died like that!
Obviously, this was not part of the plan of Lu Bingwei and others.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall froze and became extremely quiet again.

Only inside the center of the lotus in the golden bowl, there were two golden words that were slowly unfolding and appearing before everyone.

One is the character for “地”.

There is another one, which is "prison"!
