Chapter 980

The few people searched cave by cave along the eastern passage. Net

To prevent accidents, usually three people would enter the cave to explore, while the others would guard the passage to prevent the Yin Spirit Horse from taking the opportunity to escape.

Not long after, the few people arrived at the place where the burly man surnamed Yuan had discovered the Yin Spirit Horse. It was a small cave that was not very large.

This time, the beautiful woman in black and Bai Bai Yaoyi guarded outside, while Han Li and the old man and the others walked in to take a look.

As soon as they walked in, they discovered the strangeness in the cave; not only was the Yin wind inside extremely weak, but there was even a warm feeling.

As a result, apart from discovering some soft sand and soil, they also found a few pieces of rare warm jade ore piled in a corner of the cave. And a faint fragrance remained in the air here, somewhat like medicinal fragrance and somewhat like sandalwood fragrance, as if it were a mixture of both.

And after sweeping their gaze downward, they could clearly see some messy hoof-like footprints on the ground, but they were a few times smaller.

"It's correct; it's definitely the Yin Spirit Horse!" After circling these footprints twice and sniffing the fragrance in the air, the old man surnamed Fu rubbed his hands and said, showing the excitement in his heart.

"Since Brother Fu also says so, then it must be correct. Then let's chase after it immediately. This passage is not very wide; it's mostly a branched passage. If we chase it bit by bit, we will always be able to force this thing out." The burly man surnamed Yuan also said with a hint of red on his face.

"Hmm, these words are reasonable. Let's..." The old man surnamed Fu nodded, but just as he spoke halfway, suddenly a rumbling sound came, and then the three people's feet were unstable at the same time, and the entire cave shook.

Then bursts of roaring sounds like surging waves came from outside the cave, as if the sound were not far away.

The three were startled and simultaneously had spiritual light flash on their bodies, turning into three streaks of escape light and flying away from here.

In the blink of an eye, they appeared in the passage, and the two women were looking forward with surprised expressions.

From there came one sound of footsteps after another, and who knew what kind of behemoth it was, actually making the entire passage shake with every step. At the same time, the astonishing roar also came from the same direction, clearly emitted by the same thing.

They looked at each other, and without needing anyone to remind them, they sacrificed their respective magic treasures and looked forward with solemn expressions.

While others could not see very far because of the obstruction of the black Yin wind, Han Li's pupils had already flashed with blue light, seeing a ghost creature over a hundred zhang away.

As a result, he couldn't help but gasp.

It was actually a giant wolf covered in green fur.

This wolf was on all fours, three zhang high, its head as huge as a small house, a pair of huge wolf eyes blood-red, and its four huge wolf claws were pitch-black and sharp, as if they were sharp blades.

But what made Han Li's heart tremble the most was that while the giant wolf emitted giant roars, clusters of green corpse fire were occasionally sprayed from its mouth. Occasionally, when these green gases brushed against the ice walls on both sides, a deep or shallow circular groove would appear immediately, sparkling with green light and appearing melted.

"Corpse Wolf!"

The name of this ghost creature immediately surfaced in Han Li's heart, but ordinary Corpse Wolves were just ordinary ghost creatures, and even if their bodies were a bit larger, they absolutely did not have such exaggerated abilities. The size of this Corpse Wolf was completely beyond any records in the classics. And the aura emitted from this wolf was not comparable to ordinary ghost creatures at all.

Han Li was about to open his mouth to remind the other four, but after a shift of his gaze, he suddenly saw an object half-hidden on the giant wolf's head, and he couldn't help but call out in surprise.

"This is... the Spirit Horse"

"What, what does Brother Han mean by this?" The old man surnamed Fu tilted his head slightly and asked in astonishment.

"A powerful ghost creature has come ahead, and the Yin Spirit Horse should be staying with it." Han Li replied very briefly.

"Yin Spirit Horse?"

Hearing this, the other few people were suddenly filled with joy.

At this time, the giant wolf's huge figure was finally faintly visible in the Yin wind. Although they had not yet seen the true appearance of the giant wolf, such a huge figure immediately made the old man surnamed Fu and the burly man tremble in their hearts, and their smiles quickly faded.

The beautiful woman in black sank her jade face, suddenly flicked her ten fingers, and over ten white light balls shot out from her sleeves. But the light balls did not strike the giant wolf, instead shooting obliquely upward and exploding in the high sky.

A sheet of piercing white light illuminated the large area ahead clearly, and the giant wolf's ferocious and terrifying appearance fell into the eyes of the others.

The complexions of these four people all changed.

They were all people of extraordinary experience, so they could naturally judge how terrifying this wolf was at a glance.

However, at this very moment, they also saw a white object lying on the giant wolf's head.

Although its lower body was completely submerged in the green fur, the exposed part was completely a white and tender horse head, with a pair of emerald green eyes staring fixedly at the few people.

This time, the few people were both surprised and happy.

"Everyone, be careful; don't let the Yin Spirit Horse take the opportunity to run away. This Corpse Wolf is probably a mutated ghost creature; although it is somewhat tricky, it is a piece of cake for us five Nascent Soul cultivators to kill it. Fellow Daoist Bai, you are responsible for catching the Yin Spirit Horse." The old man surnamed Fu cautioned, then slapped his storage bag, and a chain-like treasure emitting black light shot out, wrapping around the giant wolf opposite like a poisonous python.

The other few people also took action one after another upon hearing this.

The beautiful woman in black shook her sleeves, and three crimson flying swords shot out; the burly man pointed at the jade plaque in front of him, and suddenly several winged giant scorpions flew out from within, lunging forward; Han Li blew lightly, and several flying swords suddenly shone brilliantly, turning into sheets of golden light and sweeping forward.

At the same time, Bai Bai Yaoyi flipped her palm, and a semi-transparent silk net appeared in her hand, which she shook lightly. Cold light flickered, and the silk net turned into a sheet of white energy, directly shrouding the Yin Spirit Horse on the giant wolf's head.

Although it was the first time the five people had joined forces, the momentum of all their treasures being released was still astonishing.

The Yin Spirit Horse seemed to have quite a bit of spiritual intelligence; upon seeing this attack, it was so frightened that it pressed its figure further down, hiding dead in the wolf fur, and refused to show its face again.

Upon seeing so many attacks, the Corpse Wolf's fierce light flashed, its roaring sound stopped, but it opened its mouth wide, and a stream of emerald green phosphorus fire sprayed out incessantly, instantly turning into a sheet of towering green waves to meet the few magic treasures.

For a time, green flames and treasure light echoed and responded to each other, entangling together.

Whether it was Han Li's flying swords or the treasures of the others, they were all blocked by the green flames and could not get within half a step of the giant wolf. The few flying scorpions summoned from the jade plaque were unable to dodge in time, and after being covered by the green flames, they instantly turned into blue smoke. It seemed that the power of this corpse fire was not small.

The white silk net that should have been used to deal with the Yin Spirit Horse was also lifted by the green flames and could not fall. Seeing this situation, Bai Bai Yaoyi was the first to let out a cold snort.

The Northern Night Little Extreme Palace was originally located in a place of ice and snow, and this woman's magic treasures and cultivation techniques were all ice-attribute, so she naturally turned a blind eye to this mere corpse fire.

Before Han Li and the others could react, she cast an incantation with both hands, let out a delicate shout, and suddenly spiritual light shone brightly on her body, and a layer of pale, hazy cold air emerged. A cluster of gorgeous crystal light made this woman look as elegant and graceful as an ice river goddess.

The temperature in the surrounding air dropped sharply in an instant; Han Li and the old man surnamed Fu were fine, but the beautiful woman in black and the burly man couldn't help but shiver when caught off guard.

The giant wolf seemed to feel that something was wrong, took a deep breath, and sprayed out even more corpse fire from its mouth.

Almost at the same time, Bai Bai Yaoyi opened her mouth and spat out the ice fan, which circled once and landed in her jade hand.

With cold light shining all over her body, she fanned lightly toward the Corpse Wolf.

This time, what whistled out from the fan was not the yellow wind Han Li had seen before, but a piercing snow wind mixed with countless ice crystals that swept toward the opposite side.

Green and white light shone brightly, instantly drowning out the spiritual light of the other magic treasures, and bursts of explosive sounds were transmitted incessantly from the collision of the two.

This corpse fire sprayed by the Corpse Wolf was truly sharp; encountering the ice-attribute divine ability that specialized in restraining it, it actually did not fall into a disadvantage at all. Seeing this, a hint of red appeared on Bai Bai Yaoyi's face, and she was secretly annoyed in her heart. She shook the ice fan slightly, and it actually expanded by a fold, and the ice wind sprayed from the fan naturally increased in power.

And at this time, the old man and the others who had tested the Corpse Wolf naturally would not just watch Bai Bai Yaoyi fight this ghost creature alone.

Immediately, the old man pointed at the chain he had sacrificed earlier. Suddenly, with a light sound of "bang," black flames burned fiercely on the chain. Then the chain swayed and materialized into dozens of identical fire chains, instantly forming a giant fire net that appeared above the giant wolf's head and fell fiercely, like a heavenly net.

And the beautiful woman in black chanted incantations, and the three crimson flying swords trembled violently, then actually merged into one, turning into a giant sword a zhang long that slashed fiercely.

The burly man surnamed Yuan put away the jade plaque in his hand without changing his expression, and a blue gourd appeared in his hand, from which a stream of dense purple mist sprayed out, drifting slowly toward the opposite side, its effect unknown.

Han Li saw that the others had all used their divine abilities, and his eyebrows jumped slightly. He shook his sleeve inadvertently, and a streak of red light disappeared from his sleeve in a flash.

With so many attacks pressing down at the same time, the giant wolf, although its divine abilities were not small, felt unable to hold out. As soon as the fire chains and crimson giant sword in the air joined in, the corpse fire was immediately forced to retreat step by step. The purple dense mist was also about to drift over.

Although this Corpse Wolf's spiritual intelligence was not high, its innate wolf instinct still allowed it to feel danger. Immediately, green light flashed all over its body, its figure shrank by a circle, and then some of the coarse, hard fur on its back stood up. With a low roar, clusters of green light shot out, actually shrouding all five people within it.

This was somewhat beyond the expectations of the few people, but they did not dare to underestimate it and cast their divine abilities to resist these green rays, and the offensive in their hands naturally slowed down. And just because of this moment of delay, this mutated Corpse Wolf suddenly turned around and ran wildly toward the path it came from.

This time, the old man and the others couldn't help but be stunned.
