Chapter 42: The Bitter Battle

Ling Zheng stared at the ghost centipede, and the sharp eagle-like eyes on the head of the ghost centipede were also staring at him.

A man and a beast stared at each other silently for half a pillar of incense, and then the four-winged ghost centipede opened its mouth and spewed out a dark purple poisonous gas, like a cannonball, and hit Ling Zheng's head.

Ling Zheng hurriedly controlled the ghost bead to resist, the purple light collided with the purple mist, and it exploded in an instant, and the poisonous mist made Ling Zheng cough.

In the sharp eyes of the four-winged ghost centipede, Ling Zheng actually saw a love similar to greed, and his vigilance increased again.

The Dancing Wind Sword swirled around Ling Zheng's body, and in a burst of dances, it swept out more than a dozen cyan wind blades, splitting the rocky ground and splashing out a lot of white bone stubble. There was a hint of mockery in the eyes of the four-winged ghost centipede, as if it knew that Ling Zheng's move was no threat to it.

Finally, the four-winged ghost centipede couldn't hold back, and the four wings behind it shook, and it was about to rush towards Ling Zheng. Its scorpion-like strange feet, between the friction opening and closing, made a sonorous sound like the collision of gold and iron.

Ling Zheng's mind moved, and the blue light of the Dancing Wind Sword was great, and it immediately turned into a brilliant streamer, stabbing at the eyes of the four-winged ghost centipede, and then controlled the ghost bead to turn around, went around the back of the four-winged ghost centipede, and smashed into the two pairs of winged wings behind the beast.

According to the Persona, the ghost centipede has two weaknesses, one is the eyes, and the other is the wings behind it. Ling Zheng didn't know if the record in "Persona" was accurate, but in this situation, there was really no other way than to attack as recorded in the book.

Sure enough, after Ling Zheng manipulated these two spiritual weapons to attack, the four-winged ghost centipede moved in unison and began to dodge. Ling Zheng felt that this opportunity was really rare now, and he manipulated the Dancing Wind Sword to send out a sharp stabbing blow, and after cutting a flash of fire on the hard scale armor of the four-winged ghost centipede, he turned around and left, without any stop.

Although this divine blood demon lotus growing in the cave is precious, the four-winged ghost centipede is definitely not a demon beast to be messed with, if you are blindly greedy, you will definitely be strangled here by this ghost centipede.

Don't forget, Ling Zheng now only has the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Spirit Condensation Realm, and in the face of the four-winged ghost centipede with the strength of the Foundation Realm, the strength is not half a star. Even if there are two spiritual weapons and many talismans in his body, it is difficult to regain that huge disadvantage.

Because of the passage through the cave before, Ling Zheng was also familiar with the route, and he escaped very quickly.

But he clearly underestimated the speed of the four-winged ghost centipede. The beast's four wings shook, and its speed was much faster than that of Ling Zheng, who had blessed the Wind Walking Technique, and only half of the distance had escaped, Ling Zheng felt that the wind behind him was loud, and the smell was fishy, and he knew that the four-winged ghost centipede had chased after him.

Ling Zheng first took out a second-order Xuan Ice Shield Talisman, activated it, and then threw out a Flame Explosion Bullet Talisman with his hand.

"Buzz!"

With a shudder, Ling Zheng's body was blocked by a light blue ice crystal shield, and the flame bomb talisman that was thrown out also transformed into a huge dark red fireball, blasting towards the four-winged ghost centipede that flew over.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the dark red fireball exploded, and the powerful power and scorching dark red flames spread, blasting the Xuan Ice Shield in front of Ling Zheng into several cracks, while the four-winged ghost centipede was blasted out of the distance by the power generated by the explosion, and the turquoise scale armor turned black in several places.

Seeing the rare opportunity, Ling Zheng moved quickly under his feet and accelerated towards the mouth of the cave.

The four-winged ghost centipede was so enraged by the fire bomb that it let out a crow-like chirp, and then rushed towards Ling Zheng, who was running for his life.

The speed of the four-winged ghost centipede in a furious state increased a lot again, and before Ling Zheng could run a few steps, he was caught up again, and with a thought, he controlled the Xuanbing shield and crashed into the four-winged ghost centipede.

"Bang!

With two loud noises in succession, the two scorpion-like strange feet of the four-winged ghost centipede knocked on the Xuanbing shield one after another. This Xuanbing shield had already been cracked by the flame bomb that had just been fired, and under the two powerful smashes of the four-winged ghost centipede, it finally exploded and became broken ice all over the ground.

Ling Zheng secretly said that it was not good, this four-winged ghost centipede could even break the second-order defensive spell with his hand, and his strength was really amazing. As a result, Ling Zheng could only manipulate the Dancing Wind Sword and the Phantom Demon Bead to intercept them in the process of escaping.

He was already a little glad that he had used the extremely expensive Burning Pill Shaping Spirit** before, and pushed his imperial weapon ability to the imperial level. Otherwise, with the previous crappy imperial weapon ability, the two spirit weapons that could not exert their true power would have been knocked away by the four-winged ghost centipede by this time.

After running continuously, seeing that Ling Zheng was about to reach the entrance of the cave, he could escape as long as he bent down. When the time comes, with the huge size of the four-winged ghost centipede, it will definitely not rush out immediately, and it will be safe for itself.

But reality is not as good as it seems.

The four-winged ghost centipede seemed to guess Ling Zheng's thoughts, and it let out a crow-like chirp again, opening its mouth and spitting out a round bead that shimmered with a faint green light. The orb was extremely fast, like a meteor, and it hit the cave directly.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the dark green orb blasted down the rock above the cave entrance, instantly blocking the cave entrance, and the surrounding area directly became pitch black.

"Bastard!"

Seeing this scene, Ling Zheng directly scolded, then turned around, and stared at the four-winged ghost centipede with an extremely unkind face.

Seeing that the four-winged ghost centipede had sealed the entrance to the cave with a blow, it let out a crow-like cry again, and the dark green bead suddenly flew back and suspended over its head, releasing an extremely strong coercion.

"Nedan?"

Ling Zheng stared at the dark green orb and immediately recognized what it was.

Demon beasts generally can't use magic weapons like humans, but some demon beasts can give birth to a kind of inner pill that condenses all their essence. It can be said that this thing of Neidan is a natural magic weapon of demon beasts, because demon beasts and Neidan have the same mind, and they are also harmonious and powerful when controlled.

Although this demon beast Neidan is powerful, strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a major weakness of the demon beast. If the Inner Dan is destroyed, the demon beast itself will lose the support of its strength and will not live long.

Seeing that there was no way out, the bloodiness in Ling Zheng's bones was stimulated, and he secretly thought that even if he died here, he would have to let this beast have some blood.

The Dancing Wind Sword and the Demon Bead let out a light tremble at the same time, and then the light burst out, still hitting the eyes of the four-winged ghost centipede and the winged wings on its back, respectively.

The four-winged ghost centipede was extremely spiritual, dodging and moving, not giving Ling Zheng the slightest chance to attack the weak point.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ling Zheng took out a large handful of first-order talismans from his storage ring, and threw them out like a scattered flower. For a moment, all kinds of lights flickered one after another in the dark cave, and although the rain-like first-order spell could not pose any threat to the four-winged ghost centipede, it also stunned it for a while.

It has lived until now, and there are not a hundred or eighty human cultivators it has killed, and it has some understanding of the methods of cultivators. But the human being in front of him was different from the cultivators it had killed before, his strength might not be the strongest, but it was difficult to entangle Cheng Dรน, enough to rank among the top few.

Taking advantage of the four-winged ghost centipede's stunned kung fu, Ling Zheng's hand flashed with light, and he took out the beast spirit array stone that he had exchanged for at the Divine Rune Gate Yi Fu Conference from the storage ring, and after infusing it with spiritual power, he roared: "Pro!"

The Beast Spirit Array Stone trembled violently, and then burst out with a dazzling red light. A five-foot-tall beast shadow burst out of it, and after landing on the ground, it condensed into a monkey with a fiery red body and fierce eyes.

According to what the old man said at the beginning, this Spirit Fire Monkey summoned with the Beast Spirit Array Stone had at least the strength of the first order of the Foundation Building Realm. However, Ling Zheng found that the strength of the Spirit Fire Monkey in front of him seemed to be more than the first order of the Foundation Building Realm. The aura it exudes is comparable to that of the four-winged ghost centipede not far away.

Because of the urgency of the situation, Ling Zheng didn't get distracted to think about it. With a heart-to-heart connection, Ling Zheng controlled the summoned Spirit Fire Monkey to attack the wings on the back of the four-winged ghost centipede.

The four-winged ghost centipede saw that a demon beast with strength comparable to himself suddenly appeared, and his eyes suddenly became a little more flustered. The speed of the Spirit Fire Monkey seemed to be faster than that of the Four-Winged Ghost Centipede, and before the Four-winged Ghost Centipede could react, it turned into a red light and pounced on the two pairs of winged wings behind the Four-winged Ghost Centipede.

The four-winged ghost centipede let out another chirp, and the green light above its head was bright, and it crashed into the spirit fire monkey that was flying over, trying to stop it.

"That's what you're waiting for!"

Ling Zheng let out a loud roar, his body rushed forward suddenly, and in an instant he reached the front of the four-winged ghost centipede, and with a thought, he grabbed the Dancing Wind Sword with his hand, and immediately stabbed.

"Poof!"

Because he had no time to be distracted, and he didn't expect Ling Zheng to be so unafraid of death, he deceived himself to attack. The four-winged ghost centipede was caught off guard, and was directly stabbed in one eye by Ling Zheng's sword, and the turquoise blood splattered out, sprinkling Ling Zheng's head and face.

"Quack!"

The four-winged ghost centipede was in pain, roared angrily, and didn't care about controlling Neidan to attack the Spirit Fire Monkey, a scorpion-like strange foot opened and closed violently, and it was directly clamped.

After clamping Ling Zheng, the four-winged ghost centipede let out another strange scream, and suddenly exerted force, trying to clamp this damn human in half.

But what the four-winged ghost centipede didn't expect was that Ling Zheng's body was really hard and terrifying, and the four-winged ghost centipede tried several times in a row, except for pinching Ling Zheng to vomit blood and feeling a sharp pain in his chest, he didn't cut his body in half at all.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Spirit Fire Monkey summoned with the Beast Spirit Array Stone dodged and dodged the collision of the Four-Winged Ghost Centipede's Neidan, and then grabbed the pair of relatively narrow wings behind the Four-winged Ghost Centipede with its two claws, and pulled it fiercely.

"Whew!"

With a soft sound, the Spirit Fire Monkey with great strength in both arms directly tore off a pair of winged wings of the four-winged ghost centipede, and the pain made the four-winged ghost centipede let out a strange scream again. The strange foot that was clamping Ling Zheng exerted its strength again, almost breaking Ling Zheng's ribs.

"Poof!"

Ling Zheng spurted out a mouthful of blood again, and a ruthlessness surged out of his heart again, and the Dancing Wind Sword in his hand stabbed again, ready to stab the only remaining eye of the four-winged ghost centipede.

Seeing this, the four-winged ghost centipede finally went completely crazy, and the dark green Neidan burst out with dazzling light, and then, the aura of the four-winged ghost centipede began to rise wildly, and a terrifying power shot out from inside its body, directly blasting the spiritual fire monkey standing behind the four-winged ghost centipede.

Ling Zheng was swept away by the sudden explosion of the force, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and he was about to faint.

Before falling unconscious, Ling Zheng saw the four-winged ghost centipede open its mouth and scream, seized the last opportunity, took out a second-order flame blast talisman from the storage ring again, threw it into the mouth of the four-winged ghost centipede, and immediately activated it.

A roar sounded, and Ling Zheng's eyes were dark, and he directly lost consciousness.
