Perfect: I am Shi An from Shicun, and I am Huang’s brother!

Chapter 263 Weird Space
Immediately afterwards, Shi An's figure passed through the broken water wall like a ghost and instantly appeared in front of the strange fish.

This scene caused the strange fish to instinctively open its huge mouth wide, wanting to roar, but before it could make a move, Shi An's golden battle halberd had already thrust out with boundless power.

"clang!"

Finally, the golden halberd collided violently with the body of the strange fish.

To Shi An's surprise, the collision produced a metallic clang and sparks flew everywhere.

The strange fish had thick skin and flesh, and this attack only left a shallow wound on its body. Not only did it not cause fatal damage, but it also completely aroused its ferocity.

"Roar!"

The strange fish roared, flicked its tail, and nimbly turned its massive body, lunging at Shi An once more. At the same time, the other strange fish also moved, attacking the three of them from different directions.

This unexpected turn of events made Shi An's heart skip a beat. These strange fish were clearly no ordinary creatures; their skin and flesh were far tougher than he had imagined.

He then retreated while loudly warning, "Xiao Xi, Shi Yi, these guys are not simple, be careful!"

Upon hearing Shi An's reminder, Yun Xi and Shi Yi, who were already prepared, immediately became extremely vigilant.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, Yunxi's hands rapidly formed hand seals, and the purple glow around her intensified once more. Then, streaks of purple light flew out from her hands, instantly enveloping the three of them.

These light screens emitted a soft glow, yet contained powerful defensive capabilities, repelling the monster fish's attacks one by one.

Shi Yi's eyes widened, his double pupils flashing with light, and then he suddenly shot out two mysterious beams of light.

"Huh! Huh!"

This beam of light was like a materialized sword, instantly piercing through space wherever it went. Even though the strange fish's body was as hard as divine iron, it couldn't help but develop tiny cracks under the beam of light.

However, these strange fish seemed completely unconcerned about their own injuries and instead lunged at the three of them even more fiercely.

Their bodies appeared and disappeared in the purple mist, their movements were eerie, as if they could launch a fatal attack at any moment.

"These strange fish have probably been corrupted by the death energy in the dragon's corpse, becoming exceptionally ferocious!"

While brandishing his golden halberd to fend off the monster fish's attacks, Shi An shouted, "We need to find their weakness as soon as possible, or we'll have a hard time escaping!"

"I'll try to see through their illusions with my double pupils!"

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Shi Yi's eyes. While resisting, he used the power of his double pupils to probe the body of the strange fish, trying to find their weaknesses.

"Buzz!"

Shi Yi's double pupils shone brightly, and two beams of light, one black and one white, pierced through the purple mist like searchlights, shooting straight at the strange fish.

He carefully observed the strange fish's body, not missing a single detail, trying to find a flaw in it.

Under the gaze of his double pupils, every structure of the strange fish's body was clearly revealed. Shi Yi discovered that beneath the scales of these strange fish, there were faint purple veins that intertwined with each other, as if forming a mysterious magic circle.

Shi Yi eventually discovered that there was a spot on the strange fish's head where the veins were most dense and were shimmering with a faint light. He guessed that this was very likely the fish's weak point.

"found it!"

Thinking of this, Shi Yi didn't hesitate and immediately shouted, "In their heads!" "Their heads?!"

Upon hearing this, Shi An and Yun Xi were both invigorated and immediately took action.

"boom!"

Shi An's golden halberd shone brightly. He seized the opportunity when a strange fish lunged at him, dodged its sharp fangs, and then swooped down, the halberd aimed straight at the fish's head.

"Boom!"

With a single strike, the strange fish, which had been as solid as divine iron, collapsed instantly like a sand sculpture, eventually turning into ashes that scattered with the wind.

"It really works!"

Upon landing a successful blow, a hint of joy flashed in Shi An's eyes. He then wielded his battle halberd even more swiftly, unleashing golden divine light that raged like a mad dragon as it attacked the other strange fish.

Yunxi was not to be outdone. She formed hand seals and chanted incantations. Purple runes flew from her fingertips, transforming into sharp swords that shot towards the head of the strange fish.

Those runic swords gleamed with a mysterious light, possessing powerful penetrating force, and pierced straight towards the monster fish's vital points.

Seeing his brother and sister-in-law working so hard, Shi Yi, who had double pupils, was not willing to fall behind. He also summoned a long spear and charged into the school of strange fish, aiming at their heads and shooting them one by one.

Thus, with the combined efforts of the three, these originally ferocious monster fish gradually lost their power to resist, and one by one they disappeared, and the purple mist gradually returned to calm.

Finally, when the last golden light flashed and the last strange fish turned to ashes, leaving only the lingering purple mist and the mysterious patterns on the ground still exuding an eerie aura, the three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whoo~"

Shi An let out a long breath, put away his golden battle halberd, and glanced around, but he was not completely at ease and continued to scan his surroundings: "Although these strange fish have been dealt with, there is obviously a greater danger here."

"Indeed, this place is filled with an ancient and powerful aura; it is by no means an ordinary place."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi immediately nodded in agreement, and the purple aura around her gradually subsided, but her hands remained poised to strike at any moment: "We must proceed with caution."

However, unlike the other two, Shi Yi frowned slightly, and his double pupils flashed with a sharp light: "The aura emanating from those strange fish just now was extremely similar to that of the dragon's corpse. It must have become exceptionally powerful after being corrupted by its death energy."

"And this space is probably also related to the remains of that dragon. I wonder how powerful that dragon was in life, that its remaining power after death could form such a special area."

Listening to Shi Yi's analysis, Shi An's gaze sharpened, then fell on the mysterious patterns on the ground: "The patterns here are complex, yet they are faintly connected to the aura of that dragon's corpse. Perhaps by following these patterns, we can find a way to leave this place, or even a greater opportunity."

"Let's go and explore along the lines."

As Shi An finished speaking, the three of them continued forward, but their steps became more cautious.

They moved slowly along the mysterious patterns on the ground, taking each step with extreme caution, for fear of triggering some unknown restriction.

Shi An walked at the forefront, gripping his golden battle halberd tightly, divine light flowing over it, constantly alert to his surroundings.

Yunxi followed closely behind, surrounded by purple light, with runes flashing at her fingertips, ready to deal with any unexpected situation.

Shi Yi covered the rear, his double pupils scanning the area behind him, not missing a single unusual movement.

As they ventured deeper, the purple mist grew thicker, almost obscuring the path ahead. The stench in the air grew increasingly pungent, as if countless odors of decay were intertwined within it.
