602 The Palace of the Dead (1/2)
It was compplete darkness, and in that darkness, only the rays of moonlight that penetrated the treelines could barely illminate the extreme dimmed forest.
”Help… help…”
As he continued deeper into the forest, the sullen and helpless voice became clearer. The already unsettling atmosphere, accompanied by a gust of cold wind, those who have heard it would have goosebumps.
”An evil spirit?!”
Finally, Chen Xiaobei saw a strange shadow between two withered trees!
What he saw was a three-meter-tall black-faced evil spirit that was covered with blood. It also had white fangs protruding outside its mouth and a pair of razor sharp claws that dripped in blood. This spirit was chasing two other spirits!
The two spirits still retained their human forms, which proved that they were not controlled by evil thoughts. It was just like Wenyuan's case the previous time, they were regular spirits!
The cries of help were from both of them.
”You can't escape from my grasp! Be obedient and follow me back! Otherwise, your souls would disappear! Hahaha!”
The evil spirit's movements were slow due to its gigantic body but it had enormous power.
Just like a bulldozer, the blood-sucking spirit waved its claws around in a frenzy. As the claws passed through, the big trees in the way were all cut down!
Ding!
[Cultivation: Four-star Evil Spirit, Health: Four-star Soul, Combat power: 10,000!]
Chen Xiaobei got an insight of the evil spirit's strength by using his Netherspirit Battlescouter.
”Help... Help…” The two spirits were running for their lives. However, their general cultivation was not sufficient to throw off that evil spirit. In fact, it was getting closing the distance between them. It was only a matter of time that they would be caught!
”I-SEE-YOU.”
The evil spirit let out a roar and with its pair of huge claws, it caught up and grabbed the two spirits from their backs! It was like an eagle catching two tiny fish. Once in contact, it's either left dead or wounded!
”They're so doomed….”
The two little spirits screamed in desperation, they closed their eyes as they accepted their fate.
”Go ahead and run! Why won't you run anymore? Hahaha… Pfft…”
Watching the evil spirit seemingly succeed and laugh triumphantly, it was not long before that laughter stopped! With a quick punch, followed by another, he hit the evil spirit's head without a second thought.
Because of the huge amount of power, the evil spirit flew dozens of meters away.
”Ow… Pure… Pure Yang spirit… Ow…”
The evil spirit wailed in agony as it held onto its head with its claws.
There was white smoke came out puffing from the spot where Chen's fist had landed. Like hot water to snow, the surrounding area started to melt away.
*Thud!*
Without hesitation, Chen Xiaobei stepped forward and punched the evil spirit's head again. It transformed into white smoke then disappered! The four-star evil spirit with a combat power of ten thousand was useless in Chen Xiaobei's presence. It was no surprise that it only took two punches to kill it!
”Get over here you two little guys!” Chen Xiaobei waved his hand from afar.
”Pure… Pure Yang spirit!”
The two little spirits pointed at Chen Xiaobei hands. Like cockroaches retreating into a dark corner, they did not dare to approach Chen.
”Oh, I almost forgot…” Chen Xiaobei came to sudden realization and took off the ring instantly, keeping it inside the treasure chest.
Fortunately, his Spiritual Qi was not absorbed by his ring, otherwise he would not have been able to take out that evil spirit. Although the treasure chest still had a Pure Yang Talisman Sword, it would be way too easy if he used that treasure to kill that evil spirit.
”Thank you very much kind savior! Thank you!”
The two spirits flew over and wandered around Chen Xiaobei.
