Chapter 5: Crossing the lair of the stone ghost

Because they had to join up with the last group of centaurs, they took a detour, and when the fifteen people were assembled, they immediately rushed towards the depths of the Twilight Sand Canyon at high speed.

The speed of the two-winged leopard was amazing, greatly speeding up the journey, and Xiao Hei's storage zài caused a large number of brute beasts to give way out of fear, avoiding a lot of battles.

Of course, some types of fierce brute beasts are not afraid of Xiao Hei's breath, although Li Mo has a six-eyed condor and has the ability to avoid, but sometimes avoiding it is equivalent to taking a long detour, so it is impossible to avoid breaking into the beast's lair and fighting a big battle.

And on the way, it was inevitable to encounter a lot of evil teams, but no matter what sect organization it was, when they encountered Li Mo and his party, they were all killed and lost their armor, and they had no ability to resist.

After three days, everyone finally arrived at the lair of the stone ghost statue in the depths of the Twilight Sand Canyon.

This is a mountainous forest area, scattered with sparse trees and all kinds of strange rocks, and there are a large number of exotic flowers and plants growing on the ground, exuding colorful fragrances.

The stone ghost resembles a wolf, but it has a pair of huge wings and is good at flying.

However, the way it hunts its prey is to wait for the rabbit, just because the stone ghost statue has the ability to mimic the shape, and can change into surrounding objects, whether it is a rock or a tree, there is no difference in appearance or even touch texture.

Once the prey is within range of the stone ghost, it will spit out a venom that will make people petrified for a short period of time, making them unable to move and lose their ability to resist.

In addition, the attack power of the stone ghost statue itself is extremely strong, and its sharp claws can tear the lion and tiger of the same level to pieces in just a few attacks.

"If you want to deal with the stone ghost, you have to fight quickly, and you can't give it a chance to spray venom. Then the first thing to do is to see through its disguise, and the only one who can do this is Brother Mo's eyesight. Song Shuyao said.

"Then with Little Brother Mo as the center, we will form a circle and listen to his orders. Song Tianwen said.

Everyone answered yes, so they gathered around Li Mo and began to go deep into the lair.

Li Mo's eyes were wide open, and everything within ten zhang was clearly presented in his field of vision.

He didn't have long to go, and then he pointed to the left: "Three zhang away in the west, a rock surrounded by purple flowers. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Duanmu on the left took the lead.

"Fangs close!"

A sword stabbed out, and fang-like sword qi suddenly erupted from under the rock, like a giant mouth biting down.

The rock suddenly let out a scream, and it shook violently and shed its disguise, and it was a stone ghost statue.

"K-"

A Xuanshi of the Imperial Music Sect on the left flicked the strings, and one after another sword qi flew out like silk threads, entangling the stone ghost statue all over its body, like a mummy, directly sealing his action of spitting venom.

Another Imperial Music Sect Xuanshi's sword flew and pierced the stone ghost's chest.

When the stone ghost statue fell to the ground, Zhu Duanmu sucked the body of the stone ghost statue into his hand and put it in the ring.

"In the northeast corner, the big tree on the left side of the white flowering bush. ”

"Directly above, two brown rocks. ”

“......”

Under Li Mo's command, the stone ghost statue had nowhere to hide, and the fifteen people cooperated closely, and four or five people on one side quickly killed the stone ghost statue within two or three moves.

So, in the lair that outsiders regarded as an absolutely dangerous place, the group walked unharmed.

One of the strange characteristics of the stone ghost statue is that it is independent despite living in groups, so even if a companion is killed in close proximity, the other stone ghost statues will remain in camouflage and will not attack them in groups.

But this does not mean that there is no pressure on the people, just because the people are only killing the stone ghost statues of the grades.

And as they went deeper, everyone stepped into the elite-level stone ghost statue area.

Stone statues get their name not only because of their ability to spit petrified venom, but also because of their thick skin.

To slay the elite-level stone ghost statue, it is necessary for the Xuanshi in every direction to cooperate closely.

One strikes, breaking its defenses and injuring it, blocking its movement while one strikes, and then asking at least two people to stab it in the vital point.

There must not be the slightest error in the attack of the crowd, otherwise once the stone ghost statue is given a chance to break free, it will be difficult to recover in a short period of time if someone is poisoned, which will slow down the journey.

And everyone is now behind Wei Taifu and his party for three full days, and the other party has a map in hand, and may even have arrived at the Beast Source Cave now.

Fortunately, the Le Dao martial arts of the Imperial Music Sect has a very strong control power, and it is not so easy to get out once it is entangled by the sword qi, so all the elite-level stone ghost statues are also being killed in Shun Lì.

The lair of the stone ghost statue was extremely deep, and everyone walked for half a day, killing hundreds of stone ghost statues, at this time, a hundred-zhang high hill suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking everyone's way.

"Stone Ghost Statue Leader!"

Li Mo recognized the true body of this thing at a glance.

"In a group of four, scatter the attack, don't be sprayed by its venom!" Song Tianwen waved his hand, and everyone immediately divided into four ways to move forward.

"True Yuan Technique, Fire and Water Kill!"

As soon as Li Mo came up, he made a killing move, and the double knives slashed on the hill, and the gas of water and fire turned into the shape of a dragon and tiger, winding around the hill and soaring into the sky.

"Thunder Phantom Shatter!"

Song Shuyao snorted, her jade fingers brushed over the guqin, and when the sound of the piano started, a thunderpillar as thick as a giant python fell from the sky and fell on the hill.

The hill shook violently, and the disguise quickly disappeared, turning into the true body of the stone ghost statue leader who was a hundred feet tall.

"Seal!"

The four people on the left let out a deep sigh, plucked the strings, and a silk-shaped sword qi sprayed on the body of the leader of the stone ghost statue, winding it heavily.

"Click-"

However, the leader of the stone ghost statue was extremely powerful, his arms shook, and he broke the strings, and at the same time, his wings were spread, and his huge body easily flew high, avoiding the attack of the four people on the right.

"Dodge!"

Li Mo shouted, and everyone retreated.

"Roar—"

With a roar from the leader of the stone ghost statue, a large puddle of venom fell like rain in the sky.

The venom landed, and everything within a hundred zhang was instantly petrified, and the small grass and flowers also turned into stone flowers and stone grass.

And more than that, the venom itself has a strong penetrating power, shooting holes in the ground.

This kind of penetrating power is difficult to say that even the Xuanshi in the late Xuanyuan period can retreat with his whole body, but fortunately, everyone retreated in time, and no one was hit.

As soon as its venom was sprayed, everyone rushed up again, front and back, left and right, and attacked in all directions.

Although the stone ghost statue was in mid-air, it was also within the range of everyone's attack, and a sword move smashed on it, causing the stone ghost statue to howl and rage in pain, but the blood flowing from those injured parts quickly petrified, covering the wound like armor.

"What a stone ghost statue leader, it's so difficult to deal with!" Song Tianwen even cast a few killing moves, but he couldn't seriously injure the stone ghost statue.

Under the joint efforts of fifteen people, the leader of the stone ghost statue is still invincible.

"It's really not a way to fight like this, and its blood also has a petrifying effect, covering the wound and even harder than the original body. Li Mo replied approvingly while attacking.

"Sect Master, how can we inflict heavy damage on it, and then it will spray venom, and we will be forced to retreat again. Zhu Duanmu shouted.

Li Mo's eyes froze, and he said, "There is only one way, and that is to hit him at close range!"

"But its blood has the ability to petrify, and if you hit it hard, then the blood will be in trouble. Song Shuyao said worriedly.

"I have a dragon qi body, I should be able to withstand it! Time is pressing, we can't waste too much time on it. Li Mo said in a deep voice.

"Okay, all attack, fight for a chance for Little Brother Mo. ”

Song Tianwen made a decision immediately, so the crowd moved, and one by one they performed killing moves and smashed on the body of the stone ghost statue.

"Blackie!"

Li Mo let out a low voice, and Xiao Hei flew over and flew towards the rear with Li Mo.

"Roar—"

The stone ghost statue roared, shaking its head and spraying venom everywhere, but there was only one exception, and that was behind it.

At this time, Li Mo flew into the air with the help of Xiao Hei and jumped onto its back.

Kick Kick - He flew up, leaped to the back of his neck, and with a roar, stabbed down with all his strength.

The Thousand Army Saber released a boiling flame qi, and the entire blade of the sword was submerged in the neck, and the wound caused by the sword qi was even deeper than ten zhang.

Blood rushed wildly and splattered on Li Mo's body.

An abnormal force seeped through his skin, and Li Mo's skin was rapidly changing color, almost like a stone man.

"Not good!"

Song Shuyao snorted lightly, and everyone's hearts sank, could it be that even the dragon qi couldn't stop the power of petrification?

And petrification is not simply to petrify the skin, but also to penetrate into the body, causing the hardening of the meridians.

Although this kind of hardening can be slowly lifted by the cultivation of the Xuanyuan realm, the cultivation cannot be restored in a short period of time.

At the moment of crisis, Li Mo secretly snorted, the blue water dragon qi enveloped all parts of his body, and feeling the threat, the thousand-year-old dragon yuan rotated at a high speed at this moment, releasing streams of dragon qi.

Just after the blood power eroded into the body of the body for less than half an inch, it was shocked back by the dragon qi, and now it no longer posed a threat to Li Mo.

When they saw the power of petrification being shattered, everyone was relieved.

And the leader of the stone ghost statue was stabbed through the neck by Li Mo's knife, roaring wildly in pain, and his huge body flew around on the cliffs on both sides.

Li Mo held the Thousand Army Slash tightly, stabilized his body in the stormy collision, and then took the opportunity to stab the Soul Blade into it.

Shizhang sword qi burst out of his throat, and blood spilled onto the earth, causing the surrounding qiqi to petrify again.

Finally, when the leader of the stone ghost statue fell to the ground, he regained his calm.

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief, and fortunately Li Mo was there, otherwise it would not be difficult to break through the stone ghost statue leader.

At this time, a narrow mountain path also appeared in the back, and it was not long before a mountain pass was seen in the distance.

The huge rock wall towers like a wall, and the only way to get in and out is the mountain pass.

Li Mo put away the six-eyed condor early, after all, there was a supervisor guarding there, and once the eagle whistle was blown, the six-eyed condor would also be affected.

Everyone approached cautiously, and at the same time prepared for a big battle, there were at least ten Heavenly Dome Realm Xuan Masters there, and the leading Cui Ghost was more likely to be in the middle of the Heavenly Dome, once the fight started, it would be a tough battle.

However, the pass was empty and unguarded.

Just as he was observing, Li Mo suddenly smelled a trace of blood.
