PFC Chapter 190: Three Skeleton Demons
Chapter 190: Three Skeleton Demons
The setting sun melts gold, crows fly across the sky, and this mountain range gradually loses the heat and noise of the day and ushers in the coolness of the evening.
A small group of people gathered at the foot of the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, setting up camp and chatting and laughing.
"You didn't see it, the girl that the third lady invited back this time is so beautiful." The dark-skinned man lit the bonfire, thought of the stunning face he caught a glimpse of, and boasted to his friends.
"That's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life, no doubt about it!"
The friend next to him pushed him and said with a chuckle, "How many women have you seen? Not one of them?"
"You don't believe me even if I tell you." The sturdy man put the dry branches into the fire. The flames licked his face, bringing a burning heat.
"You'll know when you see her, but she's in seclusion now, so maybe you won't have the good fortune to see that kind of fairy in your lifetime." He said this while showing off proudly.
The way his companions looked at him gradually changed.
"Behind you..."
The strong man saw that his friend's raised fingers were trembling, and frowned: "What do you mean behind me? We have scattered powder to drive away wild animals around here, and this is the outskirts, there is no way that spirit beasts or wild animals will come here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a chill on his neck, which startled him so much that he shot out the spiritual fire in his hand, temporarily repelling the thing that had just been on his shoulder.
"Monster?" The sturdy man turned around and saw a black insect wriggling on the ground. The eerie and ominous aura emanating from the giant insect revealed its identity as a low-level monster.
"Demon insect..." After the sturdy man figured out what it was, his face turned pale instantly.
"There must be an old demon in the Jindan stage around here, because there are such big familiar insects!"
The familiar insects were a relatively low-level monster, and their strength was roughly equivalent to that of some cultivators in the Qi training stage, but their purpose was not to attack, but to investigate.
This kind of low-level monster grows to its full form, which is the strength of the great perfection of the Qi training stage, but its vitality is terrifying and it moves very fast.
It is also one of the few Qi training monsters that can move freely in an environment with abundant spiritual energy.
But this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that this thing does not have a very high IQ. It is usually raised by more advanced demons to be used as spies.
The demon who can raise such a large number of demon insects must be at least a Jindan stage demon.
The demon insect raised its dark and densely packed mouth. Once the densely packed bright red thorns in its mouth bit into the human body, they could tear off a large piece of flesh and blood.
That is also the favorite food of the demon worm.
The sturdy man summoned his own life-defining spiritual weapon and was about to send the demon insect to the west, but was stopped by his friend behind him: "If you kill it now, the old demon in the Jindan stage will come looking for you immediately!"
The strongest of those who came out with Zhao Wuyan is only at the Great Perfection of Kaiguang Stage. If they encounter a demon in the Jindan Stage, they will not be able to even fill the gaps in his teeth!
"If we don't kill this ugly thing now, it will pass the message back and more demons will come!" The sturdy man Zheng Han cut off the mouth of the demon insect that was biting towards him with a knife, wiped the purple-red liquid splashed on his face by the demon insect, and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, three men in black robes floated over from a distance, looked around at the monks and servants of the Zhao family who were camped here, and took a breath of satisfaction.
Then, they looked out from deep within their tattered sleeves, and the skeletons clapped their hands, agreeing with Zheng Han's words: "Hehehe, you're right, but I realized it too late."
Zheng Han took a deep breath: "The Three Withered Skeleton Demons, it turned out to be you."
Strictly speaking, these three white-bone demons cannot be considered native demons. After all, with the strength of the Zuhuang Continent, the demon realm here cannot get out of control and the monsters cannot escape.
The three of them changed from practicing Taoism to practicing magic.
In order to gain greater power, the three brothers went to a secret place, gave up their human bodies and obtained the more powerful skeleton bodies of monsters.
Although the three of them had long been listed as hunted by various major forces, because the three brothers were extremely cunning and their strength could not attract more attention, they were able to escape time and time again and live to this day.
"Hehehe, after eating these people, our cultivation should be able to go further. Let us try out the cultivation of the devil that is comparable to that of the fusion stage." Among the three dry skeletons, the one on the left laughed excitedly.
"It's been a long time since I smelled such a fresh human scent." The eldest of the three bone demons took action first.
But its direction was not towards any human being, but towards the tent that these monks were protecting!
"Hurry, protect the young master!" Zheng Han realized that the appearance of these three old demons might not be accidental, but they were actually coming for Zhao Wuyan, so he shouted hurriedly.
However, the monk in the Kaiguang stage who was guarding the door had already become weak in the legs just by resisting the evil power of the old demon in the Jindan stage. How could he have the courage to do that?
"Hehehe, Young Master Zhao, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not knowing how to appreciate it. You must have some good stuff on you!" The old demon with dry bones stretched out his dry bones and lifted the curtain of Zhao Wuyan's tent.
Because of the cold wind that poured in, violent coughing sounds were heard in the tent. Zheng Han's steps towards the tent were stopped by the two skeleton demons that appeared.
"You're still in my stomach—"
Before the second Skeleton Demon could finish his words, it was pinned to the ground by the old Skeleton Demon who was thrown out.
"Brother?" The second Skeleton Demon finally got up from the ground and reassembled his shattered bones. Before he could ask, he heard the old Skeleton Demon speak in fear.
"Second brother, third brother, don't worry about anything, run, run!"
The voice was trembling, as if it had seen something extremely terrifying in Zhao Wuyan's tent.
Out of trust in their elder brother, the two brothers skillfully and without hesitation each chose a direction to escape.
"Run? If one of you runs away today, I won't be called Lin Zhao anymore."
Zheng Han thought of something and looked in shock with the others, only to see that their master's tent was lifted up by a delicate and white hand, and the owner of that hand was playing with a skull glowing green with his other seemingly thin hand.
Everyone discovered that the old skeleton demon that was thrown out had no skull, and the sound was purely made by spiritual energy.
Lin Zhao tossed the skull in her hand, and the image of the Heavenly Phoenix King appeared behind her. The area where the Zhao family had set up camp was completely covered by her Dan image.
When the Dan phase enveloped the world, the three withered bone demons and the low-level demons they brought with them were all unable to move.
This is the crushing of the Fusion Stage over the Golden Core Stage. Compared with the Fusion Stage, the difference between the Great Perfection of the Golden Core Stage and that of the Golden Core Stage can only be said to be as great as heaven and earth.
"Ms. Lin, please leave one of them!" Zheng Han looked at the bodies of these monsters melting little by little in Lin Zhaodan's eyes, and spoke quickly.
Lin Zhao looked at him thoughtfully, and then a purple light flashed in his hand. The spiritual energy took shape and turned into a chain, trapping the three withered bone demons inside.
As for the other monsters, they were melted directly into a pool of demonic energy by the targeted heat of Lin Zhaodan.
Under the spiritual seal of cleansing demonic energy that Lin Zhao flicked his finger, the three withered bone demons that once wreaked havoc on the area were wiped out without even a trace of their remaining breath, except for the two younger brothers among them.
"Okay, you can come out now. There's no charge for killing the monsters, but I'll charge you extra for saving you." After Lin Zhao discovered that all the monsters were eliminated, everyone looked at her. She was having a headache dealing with these things, so she immediately turned around and called Zhao Wuyan.
