Chapter 8: The Skeleton Monster
Yang Jiong was terrified, turned around and went to pull the stone door. Choosing one of the two, he would rather fight the snake demon than face this strange man.
The snake demon is only in the late stage of foundation building, and in a short period of time, he can fight with the snake demon on a par, and he has a great chance to break out of the cave. This skeleton man, he couldn't see the depth at all, so he could only dodge it from afar.
The stone gate is as smooth as a mirror, and there is nowhere to start. The snake demon was still trying to collide, and there was a continuous "knock, knock" sound.
Yang Jiong tried to push the door, or inserted his fingers into the gap and pulled. The stone gate is like taking root, and it does not move at all. Perhaps the slight "click" in front locked the stone door. The snake demon can't come in, and Yang Jiong can't get out either.
The skeleton man had laughed enough, and said to Yang Jiong, "Young man, come here, come to me." ”
How dare Yang Jiong go over, he leaned against the door and didn't say a word. Thinking about what evil tricks this skeleton man would suddenly use.
After a long time, the skeleton man did not move. Yang Jiong patted his head vigorously and secretly scolded himself for being confused. The skeleton man was locked in the jade bed, posing no threat to himself, how could he miss such an opportunity to recover his mana?
He had just taken out the spirit stone and began to absorb the spiritual power in it. A divine thought swept over him, instantly sweeping his whole body. It is as strong as the Purple Mansion, and it was also easily drilled into by the Divine Thought, and it was seen clearly.
This divine thought came and went without a trace, except for when he spied on Yang Jiong's purple mansion, which aroused Yang Jiong's vigilance. But before Yang Jiong could react, the divine thought withdrew. Such a powerful divine thought wanted to kill Yang Jiong, and it was easy to make a backstroke, and he was instantly shocked into a cold sweat.
The skeleton man smiled: "It turned out to be a fake Dan monk, no wonder a snake demon in the late stage of foundation building can't fight." ”
He sighed and said, "You come to me, maybe I can help you turn your fake pill into a real pill." ”
After a long while, Yang Jiong was motionless, and the skeleton said angrily: "If you don't come, I'll let the snake demon in." ”
Yang Jiong trembled, and his body shrank tightly under the stone door. All the divine thoughts are guarded around the Purple Mansion to prevent the attack of the skeleton people's divine thoughts.
The skeleton man snorted coldly, and the stone door behind him "clicked", and a gap appeared. Taking this opportunity, the snake demon desperately squeezed into the gap, and burst out of the open mouth.
Yang Jiong was shocked, and under the conditioned reflex, he slammed the stone door shut without thinking. After there was a click from the stone gate, Yang Jiong felt regretful again.
He should rush out while the stone door is open, bypass the snake demon and run out. At this time, there are already twenty percent of mana in the magic pool, and if you are lucky, you should be able to get rid of this snake demon.
By the stone gate, Yang Jiong looked remorseful, and he almost broke his chest. The skeleton man giggled and said, "I'm going to kill you, one look is enough, I called you over, I really want to help you achieve Jindan." It is useless to say more, but it is up to you to believe it or not. After speaking, he turned his head and ignored Yang Jiong.
The skeleton man was locked on the jade bed, if it harmed Yang Jiong's heart, when the god thought entered the Purple Mansion just now, he had already succeeded, and there was no need to play other tricks.
Stretching out the head is a knife, and shrinking the head is also a knife. Yang Jiong calmed down and walked towards the stone steps with his legs trembling slightly. He made up his mind that as long as the skeleton man behaved abnormally, he would flee to the stone gate and stay, this strange man could not leave the jade bed anyway.
He stood still by the jade bed from a distance, and said to the skeleton: "The junior is here, what do the seniors command?"
The skeleton man looked at him and said, "What are you doing standing so far away? No one has spoken to me in years, let me take a good look at you. ”
Yang Jiong stood in place and said: "I was chased by the snake demon, and in desperation, I fled to the senior's cave mansion, disturbing the senior's rest. I beg my seniors to open the stone door, and I will leave. After saying that, he bowed.
The skeleton man laughed, "I open the stone door, can you defeat the snake demon?"
"I can't fight, I can run away." ”
"A man's husband, what kind of ability is it to only run away." Whose disciple are you, and why did you get married to the False Dan?"
Yang Jiong didn't know what a fake pill was, and said, "I'm a casual cultivator, and I'm going to go to Biluo Valley next year to run for disciples." ”
"No wonder! It's normal for a loose cultivator to form a fake pill. ”
"Senior, can you tell me, what is a fake pill?"
"That thing in your purple mansion is a fake pill, there is a golden pill in the air, but it does not have the power of the golden pill period, it is naturally a fake pill." ”
This time it was close, and the skeleton man rushed straight to Yang Jiong's Purple Mansion with a divine thought. Yang Jiong's divine thoughts struggled to block the outside, and were finally broken through by the skeleton man's divine thoughts, and once again drilled into Yang Jiong's purple mansion.
The skeleton man let out two startled "oops" in a row, he really didn't expect that Yang Jiong's Purple Mansion defense was so strong, and even his divine thoughts would have to take some trouble to break through. The second shock was frightened by Yang Jiong's Jin Dan.
"Your golden pill contains the spirit of the five elements, and you actually dare to marry the five elements golden pill, your courage is greater than mine." Don't you know that there is an order in the Zixiao Continent, and there is no forgiveness for all the Five Elements initiates to kill?"
"I know, but I've already cultivated it, and I can't change it." Yang Jiong shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands helplessly.
The skeleton said, "Then you don't have to go out, just stay here for the rest of your life." As soon as you go out, you will not be eaten by the snake demon, but you will also be killed by others. ”
The skeleton man's words distracted Yang Jiong's attention, forgetting the fear in front of him. He hurriedly said, "Is there no other way?"
"Of course, there is another way, which is to destroy this fake pill and cultivate from scratch. The skeleton man's eyes were shriveled like two black holes, but Yang Jiong could still read a sigh of regret from those two black holes.
Of course, Yang Jiong will not destroy Jin Dan, whether it is a fake Dan or a real Dan. As long as you survive the three tribulations of heaven, earth, and man, you will naturally see everything.
The immediate priority is to deal with the danger of the snake demon first. As for how to get out and escape from the cave of the skeleton man, there is only one step at a time.
The skeleton man was locked on the jade bed, and there was no other way but to attack with divine thoughts. In other words, the skeleton man in front of him is most likely imprisoned here by some great power. Even if he is a heinous person, he will not harm Yang Jiong's life in a short time. Because he wanted Yang Jiong to talk to him, or to get out of this cage with the help of Yang Jiong.
Thinking of this, Yang Jiong said to the skeleton: "Is there a way for the seniors to kill the snake demon? As long as the snake demon is eliminated, if the seniors need help, the juniors will definitely do their best." ”
"What can you do for me in a foundation building period? I've been locked here for nine hundred and one years. You can come in because of fate, talking to me is repayment, I'll help you kill the snake demon. ”
As soon as the skeleton man finished speaking, the stone door suddenly opened automatically. The snake demon rushed in and saw Yang Jiong on the stone steps, and pounced on Yang Jiong up the steps.
The strange man said: "Lead it to me, you run around me." ”
Yang Jiong didn't think much about it, and ran to the jade bed as he said. The snake demon chased after him, saw a person on the jade bed, opened his mouth and bit the skeleton man.
It was about to bite the skeleton man when its body suddenly shook, and its raised head fell to the ground, splashing dust. The snake demon died silently.
The skeleton said, "Alright, this snake demon is yours." In another hundred years, this snake demon will marry a golden pill, which is also its fate, but it's a pity. ”
Yang Jiong watched the snake demon crawl on the ground motionless, and the stone door was wide open. He was ecstatic in his heart, and he set up his staff and rushed out of the stone gate, not leaving at this time.
He's fast, and the stone door closes faster. Before he could rush to the stone gate, the stone gate closed with a "soar", and there was a soft click.
Yang Jiong was extremely frustrated and wanted to look at the skeleton man angrily, but he didn't have the courage to do so. Only stood in front of the stone gate without saying a word, motionless like a statue.
The skeleton man laughed, "Why do you want to run? This snake demon is a treasure all over its body, don't you want it?"
"The snake demon was killed by the seniors, and everything belongs to the seniors. The younger generation didn't dare to ask for it, and they didn't want it. Yang Jiong said weakly.
"I've been lonely for nearly a thousand years, and I'm finally looking forward to someone, do you think you can easily walk?"
"Senior, how can you let me go?" ”
"I told you, you talk to me. When I feel like it's about the same, you're good to go. ”
"How long will it take to be about the same?" a day, a year, a decade, a hundred years, or until I die of old age?"
The skeleton man sighed lightly, "That's not necessary, as long as you are happy to talk with me, I will let you out." ”
When there is nothing to say, there is silence on both sides. Yang Jiong stood by the stone gate, and when he was bored, he took out the spirit stone and began to recover his mana. Two hours passed, and the mana was restored to perfection.
Yang Jiong was still not at ease, so he took out the last few spirit stones and set up a small defensive circle next to the stone gate. This defensive circle is vulnerable to the skeleton people, and it is just a subconscious psychological comfort.
The skeleton man lay on the bed and didn't speak, Yang Jiong didn't make a sound, and the hall was so quiet that a pin could be heard. On the top of the hall are several bowl-sized pearls, illuminating the hall as if it were day. After calming down, Yang Jiong found that the hall was extremely cool and unaffected by the heat outside the door.
Time passed little by little, and I don't know how long it was, the skeleton man suddenly said: "Eleven hours have passed, you don't take the snake demon's inner pill and spirit crystal, and put it in the jade box." After twelve hours, it will be lowered by one level. ”
The skeleton man hadn't made any moves against him for so long, and Yang Jiong gradually calmed down. He stepped out of the defensive array, grabbed the snake's tail, pulled the snake demon to the stone gate, and began to peel the skin for the pill.
The snake demon is too big, just the snake skin fills the Qiankun bag. Looking at the snake meat and snake bones, Yang Jiong could only discard it helplessly.
I cut a piece of snake meat, roasted it over the fire, and took a bite, and it was full of vitality and fragrant mouth. The demon beasts in the foundation building period are rich in vitality in their bodies, although they are useless to the monks in the foundation building period, they are extremely helpful to the monks in the qi cultivation period.
The skeleton said, "The Qiankun bag is small, I have a big one here, enough for you to fit the whole snake." A Qiankun bag flew towards Yang Jiong.
Yang Jiong swept the Qiankun bag with his divine thoughts, and there was no prohibition on it before he reached out to catch it. When the skeleton man threw it over, he had already cleared the divine thoughts from the bag.
