Chapter 196: Archers and Centaurs (Part I)
This time the passage was a bit long, and it took a long time for the three-headed dog to run out, this time they came to a much wider space than the first floor, and there was still only one entrance on the opposite side.
Unlike the first level, the entrance to this level is lined with two huge statues, one is a giant with a bow and arrows and pulls it into a full moon without arrows, and the other is a half-human, half-horse monster with a human upper body and a lower half horse, holding a trident in one hand and a human head in the other.
The carvings of these two statues are lifelike, and every detail is cleverly cut out, which makes people can't help but have the illusion that these two statues are alive.
In particular, the human head in the hands of the half-man and half-horse, the blood that was about to drip and the expression that was distorted to the point of pain, all depicted hunger vividly, and even a strong smell of blood could be smelled from the statue.
The ape spirit jumped down from the three-headed dog, let it stay here, and walked inside.
As he expected, the moment he stepped out, the passage behind him immediately closed, as did the entrance on the other side.
When the passage was closed, the ape spirit's gaze was directly locked on the two statues, and in his eyes, the two statues were filled with a thick black qi at this moment, and if you looked closely, you could see that there were silent screams of soul pain in the black gas, and these souls seemed to be trapped and could not break free.
The cold light flashed in the ape spirit's eyes, and the momentum on his body emanated unreservedly, his long hair was windless, the golden light flashed on his body, and the bones of his body made a crackling sound of fried beans.
He walked towards the two statues step by step, and when he was still more than fifty meters away from the statues, the whole earth suddenly shook violently, and then the ape spirit saw that a small crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the originally lifeless statue, and these cracks spread rapidly, and after a while, they spread from under his feet to the top of his head, and with the vibration, more and more cracks appeared, and soon covered the entire body.
With the appearance of the rift, those originally invisible black qi suddenly became substantial, which could be seen with the naked eye, and the originally silent roar gradually became clear.
From small to large, it finally directly overshadowed the roar of this space, leaving only the terrible roar.
The shaking of the earth became stronger and stronger, and the sarcoma tentacles on the ground writhed even more wildly, and layers of stone dust peeled off the statue, and a strong dead air enveloped this large space.
The ape's eyes flashed with golden light, and his body took a step forward, falling steadily, as if his body was glued to the ground, making him move steadily towards the two statues step by step.
Until he came to the disconnection, the two statues only trembled violently, and the stone dust on their bodies fell off, but they still did not mean to wake up completely.
The ape spirit smiled, his body suddenly jumped up, and came to the archer man who drew his bow, looked at the eyes that were still lifeless, his right fist clenched, and with a loud shout, a golden yin and yang pattern appeared in front of his fist, and it swirled towards the statue in front of him.
Just as the yin and yang pattern touched the archer's face, a pair of intense black light suddenly burst out from the archer's eyes, and then the body full of cracks burst with a thud, and the stone fragments shot towards the ape spirit in unison.
With a cold snort and a wave of his big hand, those stone fragments were crushed by the wind brought up by the ape spirit's sleeves, turned into stone powder and rolled upside down, turning into a lime dragon in the air, and flying towards the archers with teeth and claws.
At this moment, the archer was covered in black gas, and he couldn't see his true appearance at all, and when the lime dragon approached, the group of unjust souls rushed out one after another, and disappeared into the dragon's body.
The lime dragon roared in pain, and a black light shot out from its body like a sharp sword, and in less than three breaths, the dragon turned into a cloud of lime and slowly sprinkled it.
The archer's body slowly shrunk, and it was not until it became the size of a normal person that the black light gradually dissipated, revealing the archer's true face.
The first feeling of that face is fortitude, like a sharp sword sharpened, sharp edges and corners, a pair of eyes without the slightest life, only gray mist slowly turning, the muscles on the body are like rocks, full of explosive power, even the ape spirit feels the kind of earth-destroying power from this muscle.
In the archer's hand, he held a large bow made of white bone, about the same length as his body, the bowstring was black, and countless black qi filled the bow, and the terrible cry echoed all around, and even the ape spirit couldn't help but feel a tremor from the soul when he heard it.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the irritability in his heart from the roar of the unjust spirit, looked at the archer, and was about to attack when a loud roar came from next to the ape spirit.
Without waiting for the ape spirit to turn its head to look, the red light instantly rendered the surrounding space, and a violent aura swept in all directions, and a series of horses' hooves came, and each stampede would make the earth tremble more violently.
The ape spirit turned his head slowly, and there was a ten-meter-tall trident in his hand, holding a trident several zhang long in his hand, and a human head still dripping with blood in the other hand, and what surprised the ape spirit even more was that the human head seemed to have just been cut off, and the pain on his face made the face slightly distorted.
It was only after the archers and centaurs came back to life that the vibrations of the space began to slowly weaken, and when everything subsided, the only terrible roar still reverberated in the space.
The ape spirit looked solemn, and he felt a strong crisis from the two archers and centaurs who came alive in front of him, and this crisis had never even appeared when he faced Rex in the first place, which means that the strength of these two guys far exceeded that of Rex, and it was likely that he already had the strength of a heavy sky, even if it was not, it was not far behind.
Taking a deep breath, he completely understood why that Immortal Venerable would be there to stop him, but these two guys were not ordinary Immortal Venerables who could fight against them, let alone the existence of two such powerhouses.
Now the ape spirit does not intend to hide his cultivation, the power of yin and yang in his body completely exploded, pouring into the limbs and hundreds of remains, with the influx of yin and yang power, his muscles swelled slightly, the green tendons bulged, and a whirlwind swirled from under his feet, flashing with golden light, this was still the result of his efforts to converge, but now he can't do this.
In the face of the overwhelming pressure that erupted from the ape spirit, the archers and centaurs still did not waver in the slightest, the archer's gray eyes were expressionless, and he inserted the big bow in front of him, pinched the bowstring with his fingers, and slowly pulled it up, and suddenly the black qi around the big bow quickly converged in the middle, forming an arrow.
The big bow was not full, but after a third of the way it was opened, the archer's hand loosened, and with a hum, it seemed to pass through the space, and it was instantly close to the ape spirit's eyes, and the distance was less than thirty centimeters.
The ape spirit's pupils contracted instantly, looking at the arrow that was already close at hand, his body immediately took half a step to the side, although he avoided the vital point, he couldn't completely dodge, and a cut was still made in his waist, and blood spurted out, but he was immediately devoured by the arrow, or swallowed by the soul in the arrow.
The flesh and blood of the ape spirit contained a lot of vitality, and the devoured arrow suddenly increased in a circle in the air, and in the next second, it was heavily fixed on the wall behind the ape spirit, and there was a blasting sound, and a huge crater with a diameter of ten meters appeared there, and then the arrow dissipated, and once again became black silk and flew towards the archer's big bow, wrapping around it and letting out an excited roar.
The ape spirit glanced at his wound, where a layer of black qi surrounded, forming a ghost, and the vitality in his body was rapidly draining, causing his originally slightly crystal clear skin to quickly lose its luster, and from the wound around his waist festered, oozing foul-smelling pus.
The severe pain made the green tendons on the ape spirit's body bulge, and the power of yin and yang in the body frantically poured into the wound, but fortunately, the ghost shadow only lasted for three breaths before it completely dissipated, and the wound gradually recovered under the vigorous vitality of the ape spirit, and the festering rotten flesh fell, and after a while, only pink marks were left there, and there were no other traces of injury.
All this happened in less than ten breaths, and before the ape spirit's wound had just healed, and before he could recover his strength, a series of dense horses' hooves came, like thousands of horses galloping, making the ground tremble slightly, and when the ape spirit just turned and unhooked, his whole body was hit by a huge pressure, making his body fly out like a kite with a broken string.
Knowing that he flew a distance of 100 meters, he rolled dozens of times after landing before he could stop, if it weren't for the fact that his bones had been crystal flowered, and his body had been further strengthened by the waterhole, he had already caused multiple comminuted fractures on the ape spirit's body just now, and he might even lose his combat effectiveness immediately.
The ape spirit slowly struggled to get up from the ground, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, his eyes were full of horror at this moment, the impact just now was the strongest attack he had encountered in his life, from the strength of the physical body alone, even if the ape spirit turned into a demon body, it could not compete with this centaur.
He breathed heavily, and the sharp pain on his body made him tremble involuntarily, looking at the archers and centaurs not far from him, the ape spirit's expression was unprecedentedly solemn, he knew that his life would really be in danger if he was not careful here.
At this time, he couldn't help but think of the change, if there was a changeable armor, then his combat power would at least be raised by a level, and it would be impossible for him to be as passive as he was now in the face of the attack of the centaur.
Seeing that the ape spirit could still stand up, the centaur seemed very unhappy, and its four hooves kept trampling on the ground, making a clattering sound.
The archer pulled the bowstring again, this time the bow and arrow formed by the black qi condensed were bigger than before, and this time it was a little bigger, and before the arrow could be shot, it gave the ape spirit the illusion that its body was penetrated.
Before the archer could let go of the arrow, the ape spirit's body flickered, and he immediately came to the archer with teleportation, but when he appeared, a pitch-black arrow had already appeared less than ten centimeters away from his eyebrows.
The feeling of death instantly enveloped the ape spirit, making his whole body cold, and for the first time he felt that death was so close to him.
At this moment, everything seemed to slow down, and the distance of ten centimeters was indenting little by little, getting bigger and bigger in the pupils of the ape spirit.
Just when the arrow was less than three centimeters away from the center of the ape spirit's eyebrows, and the ape spirit felt the pain coming from the center of the eyebrows, his heart beat violently like never before, the blood in his body flowed rapidly, and every cell was shaking violently, at this moment, his potential was being quickly stimulated.
A roar erupted from the ape's mouth, and just as the arrow was about to pierce the ape's head, the image of a serpent appeared on his body.
White lightning bolts emerged from the graphic, quickly wrapping around the arrow, causing the arrow to pause for a moment.
But just like that, it gave the ape spirit a lease of life, and made his body immediately move to the side.
Everything was back to normal, and the black arrow passed through the ape's ears with a whistling sound, and the terrible roar made the ape's ears feel like they were about to burst.
Taking advantage of the fact that the next wave of attacks had not yet arrived, the ape spirit immediately teleported again, trying to widen the distance between him and the archer, and it was not until this moment that the ape spirit found that his body had been soaked in cold sweat, and his body was trembling violently, and the feeling of being shrouded in death just now was deeply imprinted in his heart.
Now the ape spirit looked at the archer's gaze into horror, he didn't see how the arrow appeared just now, and at the same time, he was a little glad that he had reached a heavy heaven, if it wasn't for the eight-headed snake just now, he wouldn't dare to think about it.
Before the ape spirit could calm down, there was another sound of countless horses' hooves, and the ape spirit immediately turned around and looked at the centaur with a solemn face, and a strong golden light erupted from his body, the golden light expanded violently, and when it reached three meters, the golden light dissipated, and the monkey with silver-white hair appeared there, which was the body of the ape spirit.
The ape spirit didn't remember the last time he regained his appearance, feeling the feeling of strength in his body, and as he watched the menacing centaur, the ape spirit roared fearlessly and rushed over.
