Chapter 29: Four Fiends of Lanshan

One of the screams was unusually familiar; it was vaguely the monk's voice.

"Who is it? Who are you?" Feng Lao's angry voice came from the Soul-Suppressing Banner.

Wang Yu hurriedly stood up with a carp jump and looked toward the explosion behind him.

Seeing that the air waves had all dissipated, the giant filthy bone fish was nowhere to be seen, and the gray light curtain covering the ship's body was gone, but two figures, one tall and one short, appeared on the deck.

The tall figure was wearing a gray Eight Trigrams Daoist robe, with a long sword on his back, and holding a tattered white lantern in one hand. It was a thirty-something-year-old Daoist priest with a sickly face.

The short figure was a dwarf with a face full of wrinkles, small eyes, a head full of gray braids, a black leather bag tied around his waist, and a golden ring on each arm, looking at the crowd with a vicious face.

"You two have good means, actually hiding in the body of a variant filthy bone fish to sneak onto this ship, and you destroyed the ship-suppressing magic artifact as soon as you made a move." Feng Lao looked at the two and said coldly. Several cracks appeared on the main pole of the Soul-Suppressing Banner beside him, clearly looking like it could no longer be used.

Wang Yu scanned the surroundings quickly again and found that there were very few crew members left standing on the deck, and even the cultivators with various protective means were mostly covered in injuries and looked shocked.

The self-destruction of the variant filthy bone fish just now had power far beyond imagination. If he hadn't participated in military training at school and subconsciously rolled to the ground upon hearing the explosion, his fate probably wouldn't have been much better.

At this moment, Madam Yin's body was trembling, as if she could fall at any time, and the two black giant dogs were lying at her feet, covered in wounds and motionless.

Yu Bintian's face was pale, and the copper mirror in his hand seemed a circle smaller than before, and the mirror surface was also a bit dim.

The young Huang couple stood together, but the man's shoulder was bleeding continuously, and the blue light shield on the two of them had disappeared.

The masked youth stood straight, but he had an extra yellow short ruler in his hand to block in front of him, his eyes flashing with essence, appearing unscathed.

The most miserable one was the monk closest to the explosion. His arms, which were tightly gripping the Zen staff, became bloody and blurred, vaguely showing white bones, and one eye was deeply inserted by a broken bone thorn.

He looked at the two newly appeared people, his only remaining eye looking like it was spitting fire.

"Destroying my body, cutting off my path, I want to kill you!"

The monk didn't wait for the Daoist and the dwarf to answer Feng Lao's question. He roared, his two arms flashed with yellow light, and he suddenly exerted force to throw the crescent Zen staff in his hand toward the two newly appeared people. At the same time, he chanted incantations, and the phantom behind him shook, vaguely adding two yellow blurred arms. The four hands pointed at the crescent Zen staff in the air and pinched a spell from a distance.

"Boom"

The Zen staff actually exploded in the air above the Daoist and the other, and countless dark blue liquids spilled down, and a fishy smell instantly permeated the deck.

"Eh, two-tailed wolf poison blood, this is good stuff, it can't be wasted like this." The dwarf saw this, but let out a "hehe" sound. The black leather bag around his waist left his body and floated into the air on its own. Large swaths of white glow flew out from the bag's mouth, rolling all the blue liquid in the sky into it. After circling in the air, it landed steadily back on him.

"Late-stage Qi Refinement, Small Universe Bag! You are Qiankunzi of the Four Fiends of Lanshan." Feng Lao saw this scene, his pupils shrank, and he shouted the dwarf's name.

Four Fiends of Lanshan!

The other cultivators heard this, and all their faces changed drastically.

The monk who had just made a move stiffened, and his face turned bloodless instantly.

Just at this moment, the sickly Daoist's figure flickered like a ghost. He held the lantern in one hand and arrived in front of the monk. The long sword that was originally inserted on his back didn't know when it had reached his other hand. A crescent moon appeared on the blade and fell toward where the monk was.

"Spare my life!"

The monk was shocked. His two arms flashed with yellow light and went up to block, and the two arm phantoms behind him also slapped toward the void above, setting off a wave of air.

"Hu"

The crescent moon's cold light suddenly flourished, becoming several times larger, completely shrouding the monk's figure in it.

After the cold light flashed and disappeared, the monk lay in a pool of blood, his head and body separated, and his two arms were cut into four pieces and scattered beside his headless body.

This mid-stage Qi Refinement cultivator didn't even take a single sword strike from the sickly Daoist. Several cultivators nearby were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.

"Entry-rank sword artifact, Falling Moon Sword! It's the Falling Moon Daoist, it really is the Four Fiends of Lanshan!"

A cultivator dressed like an old farmer at the side of the ship shouted in extreme fear, turned over, and actually jumped directly out of the ship's side, wanting to jump into the river water outside to escape.

But before this old farmer cultivator could land completely, a giant variant filthy bone fish jumped out from the black fog below, swallowed this cultivator into its belly in one gulp, and then shook its head and tail and disappeared into the fog.

The crowd was shocked to find that because the Soul-Suppressing Banner was broken and there was no gray light curtain to block it, the black fog had already permeated the surroundings of the deck, and more and more bone fish rushed onto the deck. There were also several giant variants looming in the black Qi outside the ship, but for some reason, they didn't attack immediately, instead surrounding the entire deck.

"You should know the rules of our Four Fiends of Lanshan. If you surrender, you can keep your life; once you resist, no chickens or dogs will be left." The dwarf patted the black leather bag around his waist and threatened with his head tilted.

The cultivators on the deck heard this, and their faces were unusually ugly.

Wang Yu also swallowed his saliva, and his heartbeat accelerated "peng peng".

Although he had never heard of any "Four Fiends of Lanshan", from the reaction of the crowd, he knew the terror of these two people.

"Hmph, everyone, don't be tempted by their words. The Four Fiends of Lanshan are notorious; when have they ever shown mercy? Besides, only two of them came. I still have a spare ship-suppressing magic artifact that can entangle one of them, and others can besiege the other one. As long as we work together, we can capture them."

Feng Lao saw this scene, but snorted and stomped his foot. A circle of white light suddenly appeared on the wooden board under his feet, and another mini banner flag rose slowly from it, a few inches long, with yellow talismans flashing on the banner surface, looking extraordinary at first glance.

Yu Bintian and other cultivators on the deck below saw this, their spirits lifted, and some immediately began to pinch spells and chant incantations, intending to act accordingly, but most people still showed hesitation.

At the same time, Feng Lao took a deep breath and had already reached out to grab the mini banner flag under his feet.

"Pu"

A blood-red sword tip suddenly emerged from the chest of Feng Lao, this late-stage Qi Refinement cultivator, out of thin air. Then the void behind him shook, and a pretty green figure appeared silently, with a round face and big eyes.

It was actually the missing green-shirted girl, Qin'er.

A blood-red short sword in her hand had just pierced through Feng Lao's chest from his back, her face smiling, still looking like a strange and clever little thing.

Feng Lao screamed, the smoking pipe at his waist exploded, and rolling smoke wrapped the two like living things. Then, fire and explosion sounds continued inside, and from time to time, Feng Lao's angry roars and the girl's silver bell-like laughter were mixed in.

This sudden change made everyone dumbfounded, but they were immediately awakened by a murderous sentence from the sickly Daoist.

"Kill, leave no one alive!"

As soon as the words fell, the dwarf had an extra white horn in his hand and blew it hard.

Wu... wu...

The filthy bone fish group in the black fog around suddenly became agitated, and then, as if angered, they rushed toward the crowd and the remaining ordinary crew members.

"Run!"

Someone shouted, and several figures soared into the sky, some with glowing light on their bodies, some stepping on white clouds, and some jumping directly into the water like the old farmer before. Among them were Yu Bintian and the young Huang couple.

Wang Yu, who had already quietly retreated to a corner of the deck, didn't care about others at this time, just stomped his foot fiercely.

"Peng"

The deck under his feet shattered, revealing a hole the size of a person. He fell into it and came directly to the ship cabin under the deck.

"Wu wu"

Several filthy bone fish a foot long actually followed the hole and drilled down, but were cut into seven or eight pieces by Wang Yu, who was prepared, with a few slashes. At the same time, he exerted force with both feet and stepped down, and with a burst of shattering sounds, he fell to the next layer of the ship cabin.

When he boarded the ship, he had specially observed this ship. There should be three layers under the deck. Now that he had reached the second layer of the ship cabin, he didn't go to the third layer, but let out a low shout.

"Overclocking Synchronization"

His five senses were instantly released, everything outside began to slow down, and his thinking entered a super mode.

Based on all the relevant information he had collected earlier, he began to quickly calculate his exact position in the ship and find the best escape route...

In just two breaths, Wang Yu rushed into the corridor, ran wildly toward the stern of the ship for a short distance, and then plunged into a room that looked like an edge. After locking the door, he turned his hand and took out a yellow talisman, which was the "Jin Guang Talisman" obtained from the transaction earlier.

He followed the method told by the Huang youth, mobilized a thread of magic power in his body to inject into the talisman, and then slapped it onto his body.

"Pu"

A layer of faint golden light emerged on his body surface, wrapping his whole person in it. On the light curtain, there were vaguely some spirit patterns similar to characters flashing.

If it were normal times, Wang Yu might have studied it carefully, but at this moment, he was escaping for his life, so naturally, he wouldn't waste any more time. The cold light of the long knife flashed continuously, and he cut a large hole in the outer wall of the room.

"Gulu lu"

River water flooded in and rushed directly into the room.

Wang Yu, who was prepared, bit the iron-refined knife in his mouth, took a deep breath, held his breath, and at the same time, held the two sides of the hole firmly with both hands, so that his whole body could remain steady under the impact of the river water.

After the flood filled the entire room and his body floated up, he kicked hard with both feet and swam directly out of the room, escaping outside the ship.

There was not much black fog in the river water outside the ship, but there were some filthy bone fish swimming back and forth there.

Wang Yu first floated to the surface quietly, and then swam hard toward the shore in the distance.

"Kacha" "Kacha"

He hadn't swum far before he was surrounded by several filthy bone fish, which opened their sharp mouths and bit him, but under the rippling golden light on his body, he was safe and sound.

Wang Yu ignored these bone fish at all, but instead, with these bone fish biting continuously, he still swam desperately.

Under the system's assistance, his control over his body and limbs entered a subtle state. Using one part of his strength could achieve the rowing effect of ten parts of strength before, making him feel as if his whole person had merged into the river water, and even the surrounding river water vaguely gave him a very intimate feeling.

The few filthy bone fish that were originally surrounding him and biting were thrown far behind after he moved his hands and feet in a blur.

Looking from afar, wherever he passed, the river water rolled, leaving a long white water line. ===== CHAPTER 30 =====
