Chapter 686: Split-Head Monster
Could the location of the artifact be related to the passage of evil spirits?
Could the destination of the ghost soldiers be the place where the artifact is buried?
Anyway, it’s better to try it first.
Chen Yile recalled the direction in which the ghost soldiers were marching, which was extending deeper into the woods.
If we continue in this direction, we should hopefully discover something.
"Hey, I'm going to look for the artifact. If you're scared, go back."
Chen Yile asked Shi Lingye and prepared to set off.
"Hey, wait for me, don't walk so fast!"
Shi Lingye originally planned to set out alone, but when he looked at the dark woods around him, he felt very cautious.
She gritted her teeth and didn't care anymore, and continued to follow Chen Yile stubbornly.
"Hey, I've got a deal, if you follow me and see a divine weapon, don't fight with me for it, or I'll be rude to you."
Chen Yile deliberately put on a fierce expression to scare Shi Lingye.
Unexpectedly, Shi Lingye was not frightened by him at all.
"No, if you find us, let's have a fair fight. Whoever wins gets it!"
Looking at the little girl's unscrupulous appearance, Chen Yile suddenly felt helpless.
Maybe I'm too friendly normally, so scaring people doesn't work anymore.
The dark woods were completely silent, with only the occasional cries of night owls in the distance, like the cries of children.
In the entire space, the only sound was the rustling of two people stepping on the weeds.
As they walked, Shi Lingye unknowingly got closer and closer to Chen Yile, until she was sticking right to him.
Chen Yile had been staring straight ahead, but suddenly he felt something soft leaning against him.
He caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and saw Shi Lingye leaning against him, holding his arm tightly.
"Hey, why are you pressing so close to me? You're hitting me."
Chen Yile's reminder made Shi Lingye blush.
"Asshole! Pervert! Damn hooligan!"
Shi Lingye jumped away and hit Chen Yile's back hard with his fist, making a "bang" sound.
"Ouch."
Chen Yile gasped in pain, and the muscles on his face twisted.
It feels like it didn't hurt this much even when I was beaten by those powerful enemies.
"Auntie, you were the one who stuck to me, so why are you calling me a hooligan? And you hit me so hard, pay for my medical expenses!"
Chen Yile groaned and walked a few more steps, but did not hear Shi Lingye's response.
"Is this girl angry?"
Chen Yile looked back in confusion, but there was no one behind him, only the swaying shadows of trees.
"Hey, Shi Lingye, where have you been? Why did you suddenly disappear?"
Chen Yile shouted, but still got no response.
Now Chen Yile felt something was wrong.
Shi Lingye was behind her just now, how could he disappear all of a sudden?
He immediately opened his spiritual eyes and carefully sensed any abnormalities in the surrounding aura.
But after a quick look around, he didn't find anything suspicious.
Just as Chen Yile was about to turn around, he caught a glimpse of a shadow at his feet extending from behind to in front of him.
There is someone behind!
When he turned around, he found that it was Shi Lingye and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's you! You scared me to death! How could you appear behind me without making any sound? Don't you know that it would scare people to death?"
But Shi Lingye stared at him without saying a word.
Shi Lingye looked a little strange. Her expression was dull and her eyes were stiff. She didn't look like a living person.
Chen Yile grabbed Shi Lingye's arm, but found that her skin was as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth.
Looking closely, Shi Lingye in front of him felt lifeless, completely different from his lively and cheerful appearance just now.
Something is wrong, this is not Shi Lingye!
Chen Yile felt a cool breeze on his back.
Before Chen Yile could react, Shi Lingye's head in front of him suddenly split open.
Her head split into eight petals from the neck up, each petal with sharp teeth, as if her entire head had turned into a carnivorous plant.
The torn Shi Lingye instantly pounced on Chen Yile and opened its mouth to swallow his head.
Chen Yile immediately dodged to the side and quickly retreated to create distance between himself and the split-head monster.
"What is this?"
He was suddenly panicked. The thing in front of him was something he had never seen before. He had no idea what it was, but it was extremely fast.
The split-head monster was not affected at all and continued to pounce on him, even faster than before.
Chen Yile quickly dodged to the side, trying to distance himself from it.
But the speed of the split-head monster was too fast. Its body left a shadow and it instantly came to Chen Yile's side.
Before Chen Yile could react, he found himself tightly entangled by the tentacles of the split-head monster.
The monster's hands turned into two thick tentacles, and several slightly thinner tentacles grew from its body. As soon as they made contact, they wrapped around Chen Yile tightly.
The monster's true appearance was completely revealed. Black hair grew all over its body. Its head was split into eight parts, emitting a strong fishy smell and secreting a little saliva.
Chen Yile was tightly entangled by the tentacles of the split-head monster. He tried to struggle free but couldn't move at all.
Chen Yile tried to draw out lightning, but as soon as the current touched the tentacles, the tentacles tightened even more, almost making Chen Yile unable to breathe.
I'm afraid that I will be strangled to death before the monster is electrocuted.
The split-head monster seemed to be enraged. It suddenly opened its eight-petal mouth and bit towards Chen Yile, trying to swallow Chen Yile's head into its mouth.
What should I do? If I don’t deal with this thing, I will be swallowed up.
At that moment, Chen Yile didn't have time to think too much and could only give it a try.
"Golden Thunder Spell - Explosion!"
A thick lightning dragon was born from Chen Yile's body and rushed towards the center of the split-head monster's open mouth.
"boom!"
When the dragon touched the body of the split-head monster, a huge explosion occurred, and a dazzling light burst out in an instant.
In the strong light, the monster screamed, two of its eight-petal mouth were blown off, and its tentacles were burned to charcoal.
Chen Yile was also blown away more than ten meters and fell heavily to the ground.
Then the bright light gradually dimmed, and Chen Yile could see the situation clearly.
The monster was emitting black smoke all over its body and making crackling sounds as if it was being burnt, like fried food just out of a pan.
Obviously, Chen Yile's thunder dragon was very powerful, and he directly grilled it with a fierce fire.
The monster struggled for a few minutes and then stopped moving completely.
After getting rid of the monster, the most urgent task now is to find Shi Lingye as soon as possible.
Chen Yile returned to the road he had just walked and searched carefully. Finally, he saw Shi Lingye's figure in the weeds next to him.
Shi Lingye lay on the ground with his eyes closed, unconscious.
"Hey, how are you!"
Chen Yile hurried forward to check her physical condition.
Shi Lingye felt cold all over and had a weak breath at this time, and seemed to be in a very bad condition.
It seems that the monster attacked Shi Lingye at the moment when Chen Yile didn't look back.
Shi Lingye, who was attacked, had his spiritual energy completely sucked away, and he was probably seriously injured.
