Chapter 653 I am the Master of This Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts
The deeper they went into the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, the lower the visibility became. Jiang Luo burned another fog-dispelling talisman and took a step forward when he froze. He saw a dark scene in front of him that looked like a small hill, and the low roar came from the shadow of the hill.
Jiang Luo immediately cried out in a low voice: "Not good...it's Qiongqi..."
As soon as Jiang Luo finished speaking, Yuan Haokun asked in surprise: "This... is such a big Qiongqi?"
Jiang Luo's voice echoed in the thick fog, and everyone's eyes were all cast towards the black shadow. As the light of the fog-repelling talisman gradually spread, the "hill"-like shadow gradually revealed its true appearance - a huge, tiger-like beast, which was the legendary beast Qiongqi.
Qiongqi's body is as huge as a mountain, covered with dark red scales, and there is a faint black yin energy between the scales. It has a pair of huge wings on its back. When the wings are spread out, they cover the sky and the sun, as if it can cover the entire Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave in its shadow. Its head is like a tiger, but not a tiger, with blood-red eyes, fangs exposed in its mouth, and a low roar, as if it is a roar from hell.
Lin Shishuang clenched the divine crossbow in his hand, his voice trembling a little: "This... this is too big, right? Isn't the legendary Qiongqi only the size of an ordinary tiger? How come this one is like a mountain?"
Xiao Shuai pushed his glasses and analyzed calmly: "It seems that this Qiongqi absorbed a lot of Yin energy and resentment in the Cave of Ten Thousand Ghosts, and its size and ability have been greatly enhanced. We have to deal with it carefully and can't fight hard."
Yuan Haokun's unicorn arm glowed slightly, and his tone was solemn: "Boss, this guy's strength is probably more than ten times stronger than the evil ghost just now. We have to find its weakness, otherwise it will be difficult to win."
Fan Wujiu tightly grasped the Aoxue Linghan Sword, his eyes cold and stern: "No matter how strong it is, we cannot retreat. Although it is huge, its movements may be relatively slow, and we can take advantage of this."
Jiang Luo frowned, looking at the mountain of corpses in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Cave and said, "This Qiongqi must have been fed by someone. It was locked up here and couldn't have found so many corpses and souls on its own. All the souls that were tortured in the Eighteen Layers of Hell and couldn't get out were thrown here, and even their bones were dug out and fed to Qiongqi."
Fan Wujiu asked, "What is their purpose in feeding this Qiongqi? Qiongqi is bloodthirsty and ferocious and difficult to control. Is someone trying to disrupt hell and bring disaster to the world? This Qiongqi is indeed enough to bring disaster to the world."
Jiang Luo shook his head: "I don't know. If we want to know the reason, we can only find out after we find the main messenger of this Queen Mu. For now, let's beat this Qiongqi to its smallest form and then seal it!"
No matter whether they are divine beasts or spiritual beasts, they cannot be killed directly and can only be sealed temporarily or put into permanent sleep.
But looking at the Qiongqi in front of them that was as big as a small hill, this guy was very difficult to deal with. Even though it seemed to be sleeping at the moment, everyone could clearly feel its tremendous pressure.
At this time, Lin Shishuang reminded: "Not good! Qiongqi is about to wake up! Boss, we have to prepare for the battle!"
Jiang Luo immediately made a gesture ready to attack, and said, "Okay, everyone be careful, prepare to use the Qiongqi's bulky body to attack it from the back!"
As soon as Jiang Luo finished speaking, Qiongqi let out a deafening roar, flapped its wings suddenly, and stirred up a gust of wind. The dry bones around were blown away, and the air was filled with a biting cold and a strong fishy smell. Its scarlet eyes stared at everyone, with its fangs exposed, as if it would tear them to pieces in the next second.
"Begin the fight!" Jiang Luo shouted, taking the lead. He formed seals with his hands and shouted, "The power of heaven, calming the soul!" A golden light descended from the sky, heading straight for Qiongqi's head. Qiongqi sensed the danger and quickly flapped its wings, trying to dodge, but the golden light followed it like a shadow, and finally pressed on it, temporarily suppressing its movements.
He hasn't used the power of heaven for a long time since leaving the 2073 world line.
The ancient divine power was indeed extraordinary, and the Qiongqi was suppressed and unable to move.
Fan Wujiu seized the opportunity, and in a flash, he leaped to the side of Qiongqi. He shouted in a low voice: "Aoxue Linghan Sword, Frost Slash!"
The Aoxue Linghan Sword turned into a cold light and went straight to Qiongqi's wings. The sword passed by, leaving a deep wound on Qiongqi's wings that could be seen to the bone, and black blood gushed out. Qiongqi let out a painful roar, turned around suddenly, and swung its claws to slap Fan Wujiu.
"Be careful!" Jiang Luo quickly formed a seal and whispered, "Power of Heaven · Shield!" A golden shield blocked Fan Wujiu, and Qiongqi's sharp claws slammed on the shield fiercely, and cracks appeared on the surface of the shield instantly, but it did not break. Fan Wujiu took the opportunity to retreat, his face slightly pale, obviously the previous attack had consumed a lot of his energy.
Yuan Haokun's Qilin arm burst into a yellowish-brown light, and he growled, "Earth Element·Rock Pillar Thrust!" Several huge rock pillars instantly rose from the ground and pierced Qiongqi's abdomen. Qiongqi swung its claws and smashed the rock pillars, but its movements were obviously restricted.
Lin Shishuang seized the opportunity, quickly jumped to a high place, and fired several arrows with the magic crossbow in his hand: "Wind Element·Gas Arrow!" The arrows shot out like lightning, heading straight for Qiongqi's eyes.
Qiongqi quickly closed his eyes. The arrow left a few shallow scars on his eyelids, but did not cause any substantial damage. He roared and flapped his wings violently, stirring up a gust of wind that forced Lin Shishuang to retreat again and again.
Xiao Shuai stood in the middle of the team, quickly forming seals with his hands, and whispered: "Protection array·Golden light protects the body!" A golden barrier enveloped everyone, blocking the sharp claws of Qiongqi. At the same time, he waved a spell: "Enhancement spell·Power breaks a thousand pounds!" The spell merged into Yuan Haokun's body, and Yuan Haokun's Qilin arm burst out with powerful power again.
Qiongqi was enraged by the attacks of the crowd. It let out a deafening roar and flapped its wings violently, causing a gust of wind that blew the dry bones around it everywhere.
Everyone was blown back by its force, and only managed to steady themselves after taking several steps back.
Jiang Luo quickly formed seals and whispered, "The power of heaven, calming the soul!" Another golden light descended from the sky, temporarily suppressing Qiongqi's movements.
Fan Wujiu flew forward to help Jiang Luo protect his back, so that he would not be knocked away by Qiongqi's huge force. Xiao Shuai also gave him a boost skill: "Tixian Curse!"
Jiang Luo's Heavenly Power was instantly greatly enhanced. When he pressed towards Qiongqi, there were bursts of sounds of spiritual power rubbing against its scales.
The Qiongqi turned his head and looked at Jiang Luo, his blood-red eyes staring at him like charcoal fire, and a strong breath of fire spurted out of his bloody mouth, rushing towards everyone like a bloody rain.
Everyone was knocked to the ground by the flames and rolled several times before hitting the stone pillars and walls not far away.
Jiang Luo stood up, covered his chest and said, "This Qiongqi is so terrifying. I didn't expect it to be so powerful."
Jiang Luo steadied himself, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared at Qiongqi with a serious look. Qiongqi's power far exceeded their expectations. Even the suppression of the power of heaven could only barely limit its movements. However, the battle had just begun, and they had to persevere.
"Everyone be careful, Qiongqi's breath of fire is corrosive, don't get hit directly!" Jiang Luo warned loudly.
Yuan Haokun climbed up from the ground, and the earthy yellow light on the Qilin's arm lit up again. He growled, "Rock Shield!" A thick rock shield quickly rose from the ground, blocking everyone. Qiongqi's flames gushed out again, and the rock shield quickly corroded under the impact of the flames, making a "sizzling" sound, but it finally blocked this wave of attacks.
Lin Shishuang quickly jumped to a high place, with three wind arrows already on the crossbow in his hand. The three arrows shot out like meteors, with sharp wind blades wrapped around them, heading straight for Qiongqi's eyes. Qiongqi flapped his wings, trying to block the arrows, but the arrows were too fast and pierced directly into his eyelids. Qiongqi let out a painful roar, and black blood flowed from his eyes.
Lin Shishuang immediately shouted: "Boss! We found it! Qiongqi is covered in scales and is invulnerable to swords and spears, but its eyes are its weak point! We focus on attacking its eyes, and we can defeat it!"
When Jiang Luo heard Lin Shishuang's shout, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He quickly adjusted his strategy and shouted, "Everyone, focus on attacking Qiongqi's eyes! Don't give it a chance to breathe!"
Fan Wujiu clenched the Aoxue Linghan Sword tightly, and his body moved like lightning, quickly approaching Qiongqi's flank. He shouted in a low voice: "Sword Control Technique: Frost Slash!" The long sword turned into a cold light and went straight to Qiongqi's eyes. Qiongqi sensed the danger and turned his head suddenly, trying to block the attack with his wings, but Fan Wujiu's sword was extremely sharp, and the sword energy cut through the air and pierced directly into Qiongqi's left eye. Qiongqi let out a shrill roar, black blood gushed out of its eye sockets, and its movements became noticeably slower.
Yuan Haokun seized the opportunity, and his Qilin arm burst into a yellowish-brown light. He growled, "Earth Element·Earth Crack and Collapse!" The ground cracked instantly, and a huge crack approached Qiongqi's feet. Qiongqi was forced to retreat again and again by the vibration of the ground, and his body was unstable. Lin Shishuang quickly jumped to a high place and fired several arrows with the magic crossbow in his hand: "Wind Element·Swift Wind Arrow!" The arrow shot out like lightning, heading straight for Qiongqi's right eye. Qiongqi waved his claws, trying to block the arrow, but the arrow was too fast and pierced directly into its right eye.
Qiongqi was blinded and roared in pain. His wings frantically flapped, stirring up a gust of wind, and the dry bones around him were blown away. Jiang Luo quickly formed a seal and whispered, "The power of heaven, calming the soul!" Another golden light descended from the sky, temporarily suppressing Qiongqi's movements. Qiongqi was enveloped by the golden light and struggled violently, but he could not break free from the power of heaven.
Xiao Shuai stood in the middle of the team, quickly forming seals with his hands, and whispered: "Sealing Technique: Soul Binding Chain!" A golden chain rose from the ground and quickly wrapped around Qiongqi's body. Qiongqi was bound by the chain, and its movements became slower, but it still struggled hard, trying to break free from the seal.
Jiang Luo took a deep breath, formed seals with his hands again, and whispered: "Power of Heaven - Purification!" A more dazzling golden light burst out from his hands, directly approaching Qiongqi's body. Qiongqi was enveloped by the golden light, and let out a shrill scream. His body gradually shrank, and finally turned into a form the size of an ordinary tiger, lying on the ground dying.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but the battle exhausted everyone. Jiang Luo walked forward, looked down at the shrunken Qiongqi, and whispered: "Now, it's time to seal it."
He was about to make a move when suddenly, a sinister laugh came from the darkness: "Hahaha... You actually dared to hurt my Qiongqi, you are really courting death!"
Everyone turned around alertly, and saw a man in a blood-red robe slowly walking out of the shadows. His face was as pale as paper, his eyes were as red as blood, and there was a strange smile on the corner of his mouth. In his hand was a black bone staff, and the top of the staff was inlaid with a skull that was glowing with a faint light.
Jiang Luo's eyes fixed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The man in red sneered, his voice was chilling and piercing: "Who am I? I am the owner of this cave of ten thousand ghosts, and I am also the owner of Qiongqi. Since you dare to hurt my Qiongqi, then you will be buried with it!"
