Chapter 333
A chilling laugh echoed.
That laugh was not at all the sound of a human.
Indeed!
The one making the sound was no ordinary human.
But a series of strange skeletons.
Greenish life flames glowed from their eye sockets.
In their hands, they held wooden staffs.
At this moment!
They unleashed chilling grins.
The next instant!
A burst of fire shot from the wooden staffs they held. "Watch out! Don't let their Soul-Devouring Flames hit you!" "Or you'll become like this!" Wei Wei Wuya shouted to his clansmen. "Ah!" But it was already too late.
Just as Wei Wei Wuya shouted those words.
A scream rang out.
"Ah, I accidentally got hit by its Soul-Devouring Flame!" "Everyone, save me!"
The middle-aged man screamed in terror.
Greenish flames burned across his body.
The flames first ignited on his right arm, the point of impact.
Yet!
As the green flame burned, his entire arm instantly turned into a skeleton.
Flesh, clothing, and all vanished in an instant.
As if the flame were some terrifying entity.
"Healer!"
"Quick!"
Order the other Beast Tamers to repel the Soul-Devouring Skeletons!
Wei Wei Wuya ordered his own healing Beast Tamer.
To treat the Beast Tamer who had been attacked.
"Clear Wind, Drizzling Rain!"
At the cry of one Beast Tamer.
He unleashed his Phantom Beast's innate skill.
It was a green bamboo stalk.
Over a meter tall.
Covered in dense leaves.
At this moment!
Upon hearing his master's command,
It erupted in a surge of green light, then—
A wave of green light enveloped the Beast Tamer struck by the Soul-Devouring Skeletons.
When the green light covered the Beast Tamer's body,
It instantly extinguished the strange green flames.
At the same time!
The pain vanished from the Beast Tamer's face.
He stopped struggling.
The next second!
Something even more horrifying appeared.
The Beast Tamer's arm, which had turned into a skeleton,
Under the green light's embrace,
Began slowly to regenerate.
Soon!
Flesh returned to his arm.
It became as good as new.
As if not a single part had been lost.
"Hahaha, I'm fine, I'm fine!" "Thank you, Master Miao!"
The Beast Tamer thanked the healing Beast Tamer.
The Soul-Devouring Skeletons were completely repelled.
They were shattered into piles of broken bones.
Afterwards!
They gathered a pile of strange mushrooms.
They were level-four spirit-herb plants.
Black Spirit Mushrooms.
Used to cultivate ghost-type Phantom Beasts, they double the growth rate. "Be careful!"
"If you're hit by the Soul-Devouring Skeletons' flames, they'll keep burning!"
"If the flames completely burn your body, when your entire body turns into a skeletal state!" "Then you will become a new Soul-Devouring Skeleton, beyond saving!" "So when you encounter them, watch out and dodge up ahead!" "If your phantom beasts can take the hit, let them take it!" Wei Wuya said solemnly. The beast tamer just now had been hit by the Soul-Devouring Flame.
Fortunately, he immediately directed his healing phantom beast to perform treatment.
Otherwise, a few seconds later—
He would have lost consciousness and life, and turned into a new Soul-Devouring Skeleton.
This is the terrifying aspect of the Soul-Devouring Skeletons.
They aren't very powerful, yet because of this ability, they are very powerful.
"But today's haul isn't bad. Let's keep moving forward—there must be even better resources!" Wei Wuya looked at the resources inside his spatial phantom beast.
A delighted expression immediately appeared on his face.
"This place is actually a mine cave full of ghost-type phantom beasts!" "Those two groups have already pushed forward!" "Looks like they've already gathered quite a haul!" Deep within the mine cave. Behind the two groups led by Wei Wuya and Cao Dexing.
There were actually two more people following along.
They led their phantom beasts, carefully making their way through the darkness. "Cluck cluck cluck!"
Two giant sandworms charged toward them.
But the next moment—
Swish swish swish!
Their phantom beasts lunged at the two giant sandworms to kill them.
Immediately!
The sandworms let out a miserable shriek.
Then after!
Their bodies snapped apart.
Shala la!
The blood on their bodies actually sprayed out like sand. "These sandworm horns are good stuff!" "They actually didn't know!"
One of the two walked up to the sandworm's corpse.
He took out a sharp dagger, cut off the sandworm horn, and took a closer look.
Besides the two sandworms they had just killed—
There were many more sandworm corpses lying there.
Those were the sandworms the people of the Cao family and the Wei family had killed earlier.
"Right, these sandworm horns can be used to tame that Ghost Mantis!"
"The taming method for the Ghost Mantis is very special—they don't know about it, so consider it our great luck!" Another beast tamer burst into laughter.
"Haha, let them take the brunt, and we'll reap the fisherman's gains!" "There might be even more powerful phantom beasts further on!"
"When the time comes, once they've fought each other to a bitter draw, that'll be our moment to strike!" Another beast tamer's eyes lit up.
