Chapter 108: Half-Human

Shen Shi took advantage of the light of the fireball in his palm, and walked forward cautiously, to keep this fireball, it was inevitable to consume the spiritual power in his body, but it was a talisman that stimulated this fireball, and it was not triggered by it, and the spiritual power consumed was not very large, so it was not very difficult for him.

It's just that after walking in the cave for a while, the places illuminated by the firelight seem to show that this is just an ordinary cave, at most it is a little dark, and those legendary monsters and ghosts have not encountered any of them for half a day.

After the initial panic and nervousness slowly calmed down, Shen Shi quickly noticed the strangeness here, the rumored demon hunting cave is definitely not what it is now, even those yin ghosts and ghosts appeared in the forest on the demon island outside the cave, this demon hunting cave is known as the base camp that once imprisoned all the ghosts on the demon island, how can there be no ghosts?

Could it be that for some reason, the ban on sealing this demon hunting cave has failed, and all the ghosts in this cave have run out of the cave?

Thinking in his heart, Shen Shi's pace slowed down more and more, although he didn't encounter any monsters in this cave for a long time, but he didn't dare to take it lightly in his heart, his eyes widened in the dark, he looked around carefully, intending to find any signs, and at the same time, in his other free hand, he also quietly took out another talisman and sandwiched it in his palm.

"Smack!"

Suddenly, a soft sound like a footstep came from the darkness behind him, and it sounded so close to him, not even more than three feet away.

At that moment, Shen Shi only felt that the cold hairs on his whole body stood up in an instant, and there was a faint trace of cold and cool wind blowing on the back of his neck, in the firelight, he screamed suddenly, his body rushed forward, he turned around in mid-air, his hands were raised at the same time, the fireball lit up all of a sudden, and at the same time, the white light flashed on the other hand, and the water flow appeared, and the water archery technique was about to be released.

A pair of eyes that shimmer with a strange red glow!

This was the first impression Shen Shi saw after turning his head.

In the deep darkness, the eyes of a strange dark red light that are by no means human.

Isn't this the weird ghost in the Demon Trap Cave?

As soon as Shen Shi raised his hand, the fireball technique had already shot out, and after a breath, a water arrow chased after the fireball and broke through the air. Although the ghost is mysterious and the legend is extremely powerful, it is impossible for him to stand still.

The two Five Elements spells were sent backwards, and the casting speed was so fast that it seemed to startle the ghost thing, and the first reaction was to stretch out his hand to block it, only to hear a bang, the fireball smashed straight into his hand, and under the momentum, the ghost body involuntarily took a step back.

Shen Shi was first overjoyed, and then surprised, happy that this spell was effective against the ghost, but what surprised him was that the ghost seemed to have an extremely strong body, and the fireball technique only repelled a step towards him, and did not cause much damage.

The shortcomings of the Five Elements Technique, especially the low-level Five Elements Technique, which are less powerful, were not obvious when dealing with those low-level demon beasts on the Demon Island before, but at this moment, once they faced this kind of ghost thing with a higher Dao line, it was immediately exposed.

After the fireball, another water archery technique followed, and the translucent water arrow swept a somewhat dazzling light in the darkness, almost following the fireball to hit the ghost's body.

The red-eyed creature let out a muffled grunt and took another step back, shaking its body for a while, but other than that, it didn't seem to be harmful.

These five elements spell really can't hurt him.

Shen Shi felt a burst of despair in his heart, knowing that it would be useless to fight any longer, so he immediately turned around and ran, but in this dark cave, where could he run, it was just a subconscious escape.

The fireball spell has dissipated, and the surroundings suddenly fell into darkness again, Shen Shi didn't dare to sacrifice the fireball spell for a while, otherwise the firelight would light up, and he would be a live target, but in the darkness, even the escape was stumbling, and he couldn't see the road clearly, and in a few moments, he hit the hard protruding stone in a panic and fell to the ground all of a sudden.

"Knock knock knock......" Heavy footsteps soon came from behind, and those strange dark red eyes appeared from the darkness again, quickly approaching Shen Shi.

Shen Shi fell to the ground, watching the ghost creature pounce on him, those red eyes were almost close to his face, at this moment countless terrifying thoughts flashed through his heart like lightning, and the smell of death permeated the surroundings, as if he couldn't breathe at all.

Just as he was desperate to finally sacrifice a talisman and struggle, suddenly a large hand grabbed him by the shoulder in the darkness, and after a moment it pulled him up, and then in front of him, a voice with a strange tone, hoarse and a little staccato voice, hissed:

"Stop, stop!"

Shen Shi's body stiffened in an instant, and even the talisman he had already held in his hand forgot to activate it for a while, and he looked at the strange eyes that were almost in front of him in disbelief, and there seemed to be a faint hint of anxiety in the strange red light inside.

Why could such a ghost in the demon trapping cave actually speak and show such strange behavior?

It seemed that seeing Shen Shi suddenly quiet down, the ghost thing seemed to be relieved, and then as if he thought of something, he slowly let go of his hand.

In the weird darkness, the two people confronted each other strangely, and then Shen Shi slowly raised his hand, the ghost thing seemed to feel something, and the red light flashed in his eyes, as if he was a little hesitant to stop it, but in the end, there was no action.

"Boom...... there was a soft popping sound, it was a new fireball talisman that was stimulated by Shen Shi, and a ball of flame erupted, turning into a fireball hovering above his palm, and also illuminating the front and back of him, illuminating the strange ghost not far in front of him.

When he saw this ghost creature for the first time, Shen Shi only felt that his heart suddenly cooled, and a fear from his heart involuntarily emanated, which was the natural fear of living beings for necromantic monsters. The ghost standing in front of him was tall, with a distorted face, rotting flesh all over his body, and even white bones could be faintly seen in some parts, emitting a stench that made people hide their noses.

The only thing that is special is its red eyes, and at this moment, in his eyes, it seems to have a bit of pain that goes deep into the bone marrow.

Shen Shi involuntarily took a step back, and even the fireball in his hand trembled a few times, but in the next moment, his gaze swept over the eyes of this ghost thing, as well as his face that was already somewhat deformed and distorted, Huo Ran found that the outline was somewhat similar to someone in his memory.

Shen Shi's body trembled, staring at the eyes of this ghost creature in disbelief, his mouth opened wide, and after a while, it seemed that even his voice was a little different from his own tone, and he was stunned and said:

"You, are you Senior Brother Niu Xiong?"

※※※

The Demon Island in the Six Islands of the Blue Fish has been a peaceful place for many years, even though there are all kinds of dangerous monsters and ghosts on this island, but under the care of Ling Xiao Sect, there has almost never been any accidents here.

Until that time, Gan Ze was in distress in an accident on the demon island.

The impact of that incident was extremely great, not only for a few parties, but even the aftermath of the incident had faintly involved the struggle for the strength of the upper echelons of the Ling Xiao Sect, and also indirectly affected the general trend of the successor of the next generation of the Ling Xiao Sect.

However, for many young disciples on Qingyu Island, these are too far away things, they can't touch them yet, and the consequences they can directly feel are that the rules of the Demon Island, which have not changed for many years, suddenly become extremely strict one day, and Gan Ze, the heir of the Gan family who used to be infinitely beautiful earlier, has also been silent and low-key since that incident.

But behind these surfaces, in fact, on that unexpected night, two more people disappeared from everyone's sight and were never heard from. One is Lin Hu, who accompanied Gan Ze to venture into the demon hunting cave, and the other is Niu Xiong, who was forced to rescue the two of them that night, but was also trapped on the weird demon island and had no news.

Afterwards, Ling Xiaozong sent people to search the Demon Island several times, but the results were that they could not find the two of them, and in the end, although no one came forward to directly explain their whereabouts, in the minds of everyone, most of them already thought that these two people had died tragically on the Demon Island.

But Shen Shi never expected that on this strange night, in this dark demon hunting cave, he would see Niu Xiong, who had been missing for a long time, again, and he looked like he had become such a strange look.

After hearing the words "Senior Brother Niu Xiong", a trace of dazed pain suddenly flashed in the eyes of this tall ghost thing, and even seemed to tremble a little, Shen Shi saw his reaction in his eyes, and in shock, he subconsciously approached the fireball in his hand and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, under the distorted face of this ghost thing, he found more familiar signs of silhouette, it was the senior brother Niu Xiongniu who had picked them up on Demon Island in the past.

Why is Senior Brother Niu Xiong here, what will happen He didn't die, but he looked like a monster, but he seemed to be a little sober and sensible?

Thousands of questions swirled in his heart, and Shen Shi had too many questions to ask him, but Niu Xiong suddenly waved his hand, and a strong surge came, instantly extinguishing the fireball in his hand.

Shen Shi was startled, and then he heard the hoarse voice of Niu Xiong, who didn't know whether it was a person or a ghost, and said in a low voice: "Don't talk, follow me." ”

As he spoke, in the darkness, he reached over with a big hand, grabbed one of Shen Shi's arms, and walked towards the depths of the Demon Trapping Cave.

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, but finally did not resist, and obediently followed Niu Xiong forward.

This cave is dark, you can't see your five fingers, Shen Shi can't even see the surrounding scenery clearly, but Niu Xiong doesn't know if it is a physical mutation, he is extremely familiar with the terrain in this darkness, step by step, left and right, and gradually walked into the deeper part of the demon hunting cave with Shen Shi.

The darkness seems to be frozen in this deep and mysterious cave, never leaving.
