Chapter 52: Crisis

As Liu Minghao had predicted, the scarab beetle seemed to be extremely afraid of the aura emanating from the vines, and as the vines continued to grow, the large scarab beetles covering him quickly broke down and fled in all directions, allowing him to escape temporarily.

The white-haired man's footsteps paused slightly, and when he saw the vines wrapped around Liu Minghao's body, a trace of chagrin flashed in his eyes, this kind of imprisoning spell had been used by young men more than once before, although it could temporarily restrict movement, but it was also disguised to protect the imprisoned person from being attacked by the outside world.

Now Liu Minghao is entangled by vines, although he can't move, but he can't break through the barrier of the entanglement technique at all, if it weren't for Hopt to delay the opportunity, he would have already succeeded at this time, the white-haired man cursed in a low voice, seeing that he couldn't help Liu Minghao, he immediately turned his feet and rushed towards Jiang Jie.

Liu Minghao was anxious, took out a dagger and tried to destroy the vines, but he didn't expect that the seemingly fragile vines were actually very tough, and he slashed them with all his strength, making a dull sound like beating a drum, leaving only a very shallow mark, but his arm was faintly numb from the shock.

The white-haired man with a murderous aura all over his body came to Jiang Jie's approach like lightning, raised his right arm flat, clenched the military thorn in his hand, and stabbed straight towards his chest.

Seeing that the blade of cold light flickered into Jiang Jie's body, a ghostly light suddenly bloomed, and the scarab that originally covered his body seemed to be expelled by an invisible barrier, and instantly burst out, and a thick snake tail appeared, slamming heavily on the military thorn.

"Smack."

The white-haired man snorted and retreated sharply, the spur in his hand falling to the ground with a clattering sound.

Jiang Jie was also embarrassed, covered in blood, and Xiao Hei was coiled around him, his body size at this time was only one-third of the size of normal, and the scales around his body were also extremely dim, glowing with a strange red light.

"Sure enough, you did it." Jiang Jie wiped the fine blood beads on his face, frowned and endured the infinitely amplified pain, and said loudly to the white-haired man.

As soon as the scarab beetle appeared, he wanted to summon Xiao Hei, but found that Xiao Hei's state was extremely abnormal, his breath was weak, and his reaction was slow, which was the first time since he got this snake beast.

Thinking about it carefully, before entering the forbidden place, everything was the same, only the so-called holy water was smeared at the door, and at this time the white-haired man appeared, although he couldn't see the outside world, but just listening to his simple conversation with Hopt, he could judge that the two had colluded in advance and did something.

The white-haired man snorted noncommittally, and his other hand clenched the spur across his chest.

Liu Minghao's eyes moved slightly, when the scarab beetle appeared, he found that these insects seemed to be guided, bypassing the close Hopt and the high priest, and swarming towards them.

In fact, this is exactly the case, the white-haired man plans to use the scarab beetle to trap Liu Minghao and the others, to buy time for himself to do it, not only to get the golden carapace from Immorton that can control the scarab, but also a special mucus that can prompt the scarab to enter the mating period in advance, accelerate the secretion of toxins in the body, and enhance the lethality. It just so happens that the smell of this slime can interfere with a dark demon beast like Xiao Hei, causing its nerves to be confused, appearing in a state similar to drunkenness, and its combat effectiveness is greatly weakened.

Hopt mixed this slime into the holy water, and naturally let Liu Minghao and the others be tricked, as for the priest apprentices and the two clansmen, they had long been controlled by him with the spirit charm provided by the white-haired man, and became a container to hide the scarab.

Due to the re-improvement of his strength, Hopt has been carried away by desire, and killing the clansmen at will has become a necessary sacrifice for him to step on the position of the patriarch, and even the eldest elder who raised him since he was a child can be betrayed without a struggle, and naturally he will not care about the lives of several clansmen.

Jiang Jie struggled to get out of trouble, the disturbed little black circle coiled around him, his body continued to stretch, the long tail seemed to be uncontrollable, swinging around, the flat triangular snake head was swaying up, and the scarlet snake letter was uncertain, hissing and threatening at the white-haired man.

Although its power was affected, the coercion emitted by the demon beast still caused the scarab beetle to stir, and as its long tail passed, the scarab beetle covering the three of Johnnathan also began to quickly retreat, revealing the three who were already unconscious.

The white-haired man took a few steps back, stabilized his figure, and when he saw the scarab retreating, his expression changed slightly, and he immediately took out the golden carapace, let out a strange howl to drive the scarab beetle, and gathered towards Liu Minghao and the others.

Seeing the scarab beetle surging like a tide again, Xiao Hei's long tail suddenly curled up, the black-brown beast pupils widened, the snake's head tilted forward slightly, its huge mouth opened wide, and it let out a very powerful low hoarse hiss, and the black line that was originally moving rapidly immediately retreated.

The white-haired man's face sank, and he urged the golden carapace again, but no matter how he drove it, the scarab beetle would not cross the range of three meters of the little black body, as if it was blocked by an invisible barrier, just repeating the process of advancing and retreating.

The situation was stalemate for a while, but it bought Liu Minghao and Jiang Jie a moment of respite.

Safety was safe for the time being, Liu Minghao tried a few times, and found that he couldn't destroy the vines around him at all, so he no longer wasted his efforts, took out a blood-replenishing elixir and swallowed it in his mouth, and stood quietly in the cage, wanting to increase his strength as much as possible before the winding technique failed.

The white-haired man closed his five fingers and clasped the golden carapace in his hand hard, he was eager to get rid of Liu Minghao and Jiang Jie to get the holy weapon, and seeing that the strategy of driving the scarab beetle to besiege could not take effect, a ghostly light flashed in his eyes very quickly.

Liu Minghao has been paying attention to the movements of the white-haired man, only to see that his eyes showed a fierce light, he put away the golden carapace with his backhand, stood up with a military thorn in his hand, and drew a cross in his right palm.

The blood flowed out, but it did not drip to the ground, but was suspended in mid-air, as if it was held by an invisible hand, quickly rotating and gathering in one place, and countless red blood lines slowly spread out with his palm as the core, forming a complex rune.

As the runes gradually formed, a vague black shadow slowly emerged from it, and an extremely oppressive aura came to the face, as if they were in the dark abyss, facing the terrifying demon god, giving people an extremely dangerous and heavy sense of oppression.

The black shadow continued to expand, gradually condensing the form, revealing a huge ghost head, in the empty eye hole, two dark flames continued to jump, there were faint red blood lines surging around the body, fangs exposed, and a silent roar, extremely fierce and terrifying.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Jiang Jie's body stiffened suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the man in white with a hint of horror.

At this time, the white-haired man's face was also covered with a layer of black mist, as if he had a ghost face, hideous and twisted, just like the huge ghost head suspended in front of him.

"Not good." Jiang Jie jumped up with a scream, and pounced towards the white-haired man, but was caught up by Xiao Hei's long tail and dragged back.

Xiao Hei's head and neck were raised high at this time, the scales all over his body bloomed, and he took an offensive posture, his black-brown eyes almost turned into a slit, glowing with a faint ghostly light, looking extremely nervous.

"Xiao Hei, let me go." Jiang Jie slapped the tail of the snake wrapped around his waist, with a faint tremor in his voice, but he couldn't break free at all, and shouted almost angrily, "He must be stopped, once the ghost will appear, we will all be finished." ”

Seeing the ghost general who gradually emerged from the runes, which was already almost physical, an unprecedented creepy feeling rose from the bottom of his heart, Liu Minghao frowned, although he didn't know what the white-haired man wanted, but seeing Xiao Hei and Jiang Jie's reaction as if they were facing a great enemy, no matter who they were, they could guess that a terrible crisis was coming.

"Hey." The white-haired man suddenly let out a heavy laugh like the sound of air, the ghost face on his face opened and closed wide, his five fingers suddenly tightened, and blood gushed out sharply, merging into the runes below.

With the infusion of blood, the black light flashed on the rune, and the ghost general waved his hands, and the lower half of his body began to condense rapidly, leaving only his feet not fully formed, it seemed that the next moment, he would be able to get out of the rune and start killing.

Xiao Hei looked extremely uneasy, his body shrank up, protected Jiang Jie in it, and involuntarily slowly retreated.

Soon, the ghost general's body was completely condensed, his right leg was raised and stepped forward, and the white-haired man let out a ghostly laugh again, suddenly opened his mouth and quickly chanted the incantation, and at the same time raised his right palm, his five fingers slowly extended, and with his movements, it seemed that an invisible mountain was pressed down.

The small black thick snake body trembled, the snake letter swallowed, and let out a rapid breath sound, Jiang Jie's roaring voice also stopped abruptly, and his face distorted to reveal an extremely painful expression.

Liu Minghao only felt as if he had been hit with a heavy punch in the chest, his breathing stagnated, as if a hand had reached into his chest cavity and clenched his heart hard, his body twitched violently, and he could barely breathe.

At this moment of crisis, suddenly a black shadow rushed out from the oblique thorn, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the white-haired man's side.

A cold light flashed.

The white-haired man let out a muffled snort, his body shook violently, and his backhand swung out, hitting the black shadow hard.

"Ahh The black shadow let out a low scream, flew upside down and fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood gushing out.

Liu Minghao looked at it, and it was a high priest who was embarrassed and covered in blood.

The High Priest struggled to his feet, and could clearly see his chest caving down, and shards of organs gushing out of his mouth with blood.
