Chapter 212: Undue Momentum
Maharaja's anomaly was sudden.
Black mucus spilled from the corners of its eyes, mouth, and ears, and it fell down its uneven face. The festering ravine on the left was also stuffed with pitch-black blood. Its arms spasmed a few times, uncontrollably, and its clenched teeth seemed to grind out sparks. Its widening eyeballs protruded, as if they were going to fall out at some point.
The barrier is gone. Ying Yuejun's eyes were quick, and he raised his hand slightly, and a dry and twisted tree vine sprouted from the ground, and Qi Huan was fished out of there. A few people retreated step by step, and Bai Ya set up Jun Aoyan, who couldn't move over there, and distanced himself from this monster.
"This ......"
Yingyuejun raised her head and looked in a certain direction. At this time, the illusion of sensory disorders in the surroundings seems to fade, and the nerves of the person are not tense all the time. They easily looked in the direction of Yingyue-kun, and they all froze in surprise.
Is that...... A youkai. A large, terrifying-looking youkai with a striking red beak. It also has a pair of black wings that obscure the sun and the moon, and is as black as the starless deepest night; The face is white with golden pupils, white as a mixture of white clouds in a radius of millions of miles. The color of its body is a little mottled, but the transition is natural, and the hair has a different kind of vitality and shine, and it looks very healthy. It is like the embodiment of the clouds on the horizon, stepping through the sky.
It was so vicious that it bit the python's seven inches in one bite.
The beak and fangs in the beak pierced deep into the python's scales, squeezing them out of shape. Some of the shattered scales fall and fall to the ground to split stones. The python shook its front body vigorously, but the monster didn't say anything. Although it was also very large, it was still a little smaller than the real body of Maharaja, and more importantly, the snake body was too long, so it did not have an advantage. The python bowed its body down and smashed it hard against the trees on the ground, repeatedly beating and rubbing it to force it to let go.
Qi Huan stood up tremblingly, like an octogenarian old man.
"Yes, yes......"
"Great Tengu?" Yingyue-kun was surprised, "How could it be here?!" It's not ......"
Then look at the humanoid monster.
Bloody anger burned in its eyes.
"-I see." It said in a mute voice, "Didn't you even think of yourself......"
Bai Ya grabbed Qi Huan's wrist and asked, "What's the matter?" Is it here to save you? β
"Me, uh...... Don't drag me, it hurts. β
Qi Huan pressed his temple with his other hand, and also frowned, squinting at the forest. The light was so brilliant in his eyes that he couldn't make out it at first. Or maybe it's just that his vision hasn't fully recovered. Either way, the others are not wrong in their conclusions.
"Wait, your hands ......"
"Ahh
Bai Yaben grabbed his wrist, and he suddenly noticed the back of Qi Huan's hand. Qi Huan looked over, and the family crinket on it had faded to the point where it was almost impossible to see. He rubbed the back of his hand back and forth with some delight, and the old scars looked so lovely at this moment. He grinned, as if all the previous suffering had become worthless.
"I'm not sure." Qi Huan raised his head and looked at the incarnation with a fierce expression, "But since it has said so, I think it is indeed the Great Tengu of Moon Eating Mountain." Before I left there, I tried to suppress the rioting youkai. But in the end, it disappeared...... I thought I didn't make it. But...... Somehow, it seems to have become my Shikigami. β
When he said this, his tone was not quite sure. Yingyuejun looked at him and asked:
"Have you ever been bitten by it?"
"This ...... It doesn't seem to be. Qi Huan thought again, "Although it always intimidates me, it doesn't really hurt me. Of course, I was careful myself...... Oh, but I've tried to undo it with blood in order to bring it back to its senses. β
When Liu Shenghan heard him say this, he also understood. She nodded, looking out into the chaotic woods.
"Tengu has pardoned your blood...... Perhaps traces of Maharaja's spell were found in it, albeit a very distant and thin thing. Moreover, Maharaja's subordinates are also often active in the Moon Eating Mountain, and I am afraid that it is very familiar with the breath of the python god. They are more or less natural predators. β
ββ¦β¦ So why didn't it attack me? Qi Huan shuddered, "It's really scary to think about it now." β
"Tengu has the ability to discern. If you had been wrong, you would have been swallowed up long ago. Yingyuejun shook her head and said, "Now that you are fighting it, it has recognized your power. It has invisibly formed a blood pact with you...... It's incredible that you've taken it. β
"You...... Isn't that doubting my strength? β
Even at this time, Qi Huan was still joking. His sense of humor is always emotionally valuable at times like these.
If it is a situation that is not expected by the person concerned, it is indeed something that Maharaja could not perceive. At this point, the Great Tengu finally relented and flew back into the sky. For Tengu, facing this hateful python now, it can be regarded as a new hatred and an old hatred together. Things have taken a turn for the better, and several people have seen a glimmer of hope.
β¦β¦ Probably.
The python's entire body was pulled out of the ground, and the tremor caused by this made everyone present unsteady. It quickly struck the suspended tengu the moment its tail pulled off the ground, and it let out a sharp scream. It seems that the python god does not intend to take care of the woodland and the temple here. It wasn't until its whole body stood on the earth that they realized that the python god's body was also so huge and terrifying. And its body is very long. If you think about it, every step you take in the Lost Land may be a walk on its curled and entrenched body.
It's no wonder it needs to find humansβit's not easy to hide their whereabouts with such a size. It's smart and doesn't run rampant on the human world, because people are always fighting...... It doesn't like it, so it's better to get out of trouble in the first place.
ββ¦β¦ Mausoleum? β
Jun Aoyan came back to her senses, she opened her eyes and propped up her body with a Mo knife. She felt a burst of collapse, and she couldn't exert her strength up and down. When she was a little sober, she suddenly said something like this, which made others scratch their heads.
"What?" Liu Shenghan asked softly, "You mean, Lingge?" β
Aoyan's eyes looked far away. The sky was dark, and I wonder if it was time for the sun to set, or if the demonic power of those two terrible monsters had not yet turned the light and shadow back?
They looked at the mountains on the edge of the forest sea, and didn't seem to see anything, thinking that they were arrogant. Liu Shenghan wiped the sweat from her eyes for her. By the time Ao Yan could see clearly, the little red dot on the distant mountain had disappeared.
Maybe it's really a delusion.
The humanoid monster disappeared and went nowhere, which made them even more uneasy. The two trolls were still fighting, and the scattered people on the ground were just watching. They didn't run or make trouble, they didn't say a word, they just stared straight at the chaotic sky, as if they were bewitched by some kind of bewitchment. Bai Ya naturally couldn't understand it, and they only felt anxious for Tengu, but they couldn't help much. This is a majestic struggle, quite a bit of a dragon fight. If they weren't too close, no one would look away. Taking advantage of the absence of the monster in front of them, Yingyue-kun immediately reminded them to leave here and look for cover.
The tengu is indeed at a disadvantage. But it quickly picked itself up and shook off its massive body. It let out a peculiar roar, as if it were about to shake the sun down. At that moment, the sky was dark, and one by one something fell straight from the reddened sky. A few people squinted and watched those small points of light tear open the dark sky like meteors.
It was one huge fireball after another.
The fire was uncontrollable, and the moment it touched the trees, it burst into flames. Hidden critters have fled, taking unnecessary damage in this woe. The burning boulder slammed into Maharaja's body, and a hissing cry emanated from its throat, light but piercing. Fire can't burn on its body, but it can still do a lot of damage. Even, after those meteorites that landed in the huge depression, their fragments turned into countless scourges, and one by one poured out of the craters. They were small, but they frantically pounced on the pythons, one after the other, until they joined together. From a distance, it looks like the python has been splashed with black sludge underneath, and it is even spreading.
Maharaja danced his predecessor and threw off only a small part of it. Some red liquid splattered from its chest - not magma, not blood. They all turned into slender snakes when they escaped. They don't seem to be like normal snakes, they're bigger, even thicker than snakes, but they're too far away to see. These are the Naga, the men of Maharaja, who obey its will and fight against those annoying scourges. Such a crazy and out-of-control scene is really rare to see in hundreds of years. There were fragments of stones or something that splattered over, accidentally injured and even killed several believers, and a shrine maiden also fell to the ground after being hit. They didn't stand up again, but the others didn't hide either, it's incredible.
The forest sea in this area has become a sea of fire...... Everything is burning. In addition to the burnt smell of flowers and trees, there is also the somewhat foul smell of animals being burned to death, which makes people feel sick to their stomachs. Despair and death were in the air.
Maharaja seems to be stronger.
"Since it's your Shikigami, can you control it?" Yingyue-kun showed anxiety, "Tengu ignores all the destruction and will instead provide a steady stream of nourishment for Maharaja......"
"IβI don't know." Qi Huan was at a loss, "Don't you think that even if I rush out to talk to it, it won't be able to hear?" And isn't that a target for them......"
Yingyue-kun felt incredible: "Haven't you ever had a Shishigami?" I thought that the Wan Qi family had been an onmyoji for generations, and you were expected by the public, so you should also be ...... Forget it, I'll teach you some tricks. Giving orders to Shikijin is not shouted at the top of your voice......"
Qi Huan and Ying Yuejun went to the side and discussed with their heads. Jun Aoyan's face was still pale, and she seemed to be cold. They didn't know exactly what she had been through, but they could imagine it. Liu Shenghan hugged her tightly, and could feel that she was still trembling. But the heat wave will only make people feel hot and irritable.
"I see you're all dead." Her voice trembled slightly, "I'm afraid you're all ...... And then I sawβ"
"It's all fake." Bai Ya said categorically, "It's no different from the trick of the incense god. It's the damn thing. β
He snapped his blade and slashed with a howl.
