Chapter 539 Niu Yin, Death
Chapter 539 Niu Yin, Death
In the Stone Demon Holy Land, the two beams of light sometimes stopped, sometimes changed direction, and passed slowly and leisurely, as if they were traveling around the mountains and rivers.
"Brother Xiao, it's been several hours since they left. I think they should have been separated into the living and the dead."
"Even if it's not a matter of life or death, the outcome should have been decided. It's almost time for us to intervene." Shi Xiao nodded in agreement.
"Well, I will summon Shi Kui to find out their location."
After Shi Die finished speaking, his escape light disappeared, and his innate stone energy gushed out from all parts of his body, heading straight for the ground below.
Soon, the mud and sand on the ground bulged up, and from it emerged pieces of gray-white rocks with strange shapes and constantly wriggling.
The stone butterfly landed lightly among the stone monsters, casually reached out its hand to one of them, and closed its eyes.
After just a few breaths, Shi Die opened his eyes, but his eyes were full of doubt.
"Found it, but it's a little strange. Normally, no matter who wins or loses, both of them should have lost a lot of vitality. But what Shi Kui sensed over there was that one person's aura was ridiculously strong, while the other was so weak that he was only at the level of a divine general."
"Is this true? Then we have to hurry over there and see if we can help in time and kill the defeated guy, so that it will not seem like we are just sitting there watching the fight."
The two of them stopped hesitating and used all their strength to control the light of escape and rushed in a certain direction.
After flying for thousands of miles, the two of them just climbed over a thousand-foot high peak. Not far ahead, they saw a green sea of fog that was about a hundred feet high and stretched for dozens of miles. It was particularly abrupt in this holy land full of gray.
"No, stop quickly!" Shi Xiao's face changed instantly when he saw the green sea of fog, and he called out to Shi Die to stop his escape.
Shi Xiao was no stranger to the horror of the green fog sea in front of him. He had experienced it decades ago when he and several other mountain city lords, including Fu, teamed up to deal with the beast tide. If Lu Yuan had not intervened at that time, he might have been devoured by the strange-looking beast king.
Although I don’t know why I met it again in the holy land of my own tribe, out of fear of it, I naturally dare not get involved easily.
Shi Die also sensed two different auras in the green mist as soon as she discovered it. She also discovered that the weaker one was actually Niu Yin's aura, while the stronger one was very unfamiliar and did not seem to be Lu Yuan.
In doubt, he quickly stopped his flight light like Shi Xiao, and hovered a hundred feet away from the green fog sea. At the same time, he used his spiritual thoughts to penetrate into the fog sea, trying to find the way in it.
But not long after their minds entered, a familiar voice was heard in the sea of fog, and it was obvious that they had noticed their arrival.
"Friend Shi, please save me!"
As the sound spread, the depths of the sea of fog began to surge, and a huge beast with two horns on its head struggled to rise up.
Shi Die looked at the giant beast in the sea of fog in amazement. He saw that its entire body was covered in a layer of sticky dark green mud, and it was impossible to tell what species it was. It was not until the beast struggled hard again, revealing its remaining four hooves and a thick and long tail, that Shi Die asked in a speculative tone, "Fellow Daoist Niu?"
"It's me! Fellow Daoist Shi, we have all been deceived by the man named Yuan. He is not a primitive demon at all!" Niu Yin, whose true form had already been revealed in the sea of fog, roared angrily.
"What?" Shi Die was startled when he heard that and turned to look at Shi Xiao beside him.
Shi Xiao's expression changed several times, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
"Do it! But don't use any magic weapons, and don't go in!"
After saying that, Shi Xiao waved his arms and began to condense the Shi Lun Qi.
Niu Yin in the sea of fog saw Shi Xiao and the other man condense the Shilun totem in an instant, and immediately cooperated. Countless slender five-colored lightning arcs shot out from the mud covering their bodies.
Under the bombardment of the five-colored lightning arc, the dark green mud on Niu Yin's body suddenly became charred and began to peel off, revealing most of his body. It turned out to be a huge black bull demon with a black body.
The skin of this Bull Demon was as crystal clear as black jade, emitting a faint blue fluorescence, and extremely mysterious and strange lightning patterns were constantly twisting under the muscles.
At this moment, another voice suddenly sounded in the sea of fog.
"Niu Yin, this is the last of your thunder and lightning power!"
When the black bull demon heard this voice, his huge eyes suddenly widened, revealing a look of fear. But he didn't have time to care about these things, and kicked down with all four hooves, trying to escape from the entanglement of the sea of fog.
But at this moment, the void above the Bull Demon's head suddenly twisted, and a vicissitudes of stone pillar a hundred feet long strangely emerged. Before the demon could react, the Shilun totem smashed down on his head with the force of a mountain!
Such a sudden change was unexpected to Niu Yin, and even Shi Die was not expecting it. He looked at Shi Xiao beside him with an expression of disbelief.
"what!"
Niu Yin let out a scream, and his huge body was smashed into the depths of the sea of fog again by the sudden blow.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, you guys..."
Only a few words of Niu Yin were heard in the sea of fog, and then it suddenly burst into flames. The evil fire even dyed half of the sky green.
"Retreat!" Shi Xiao knew how powerful the green fire was, so he quickly pulled up Shi Die, who hadn't understood what was happening, and retreated a thousand feet away the moment the green mist started burning.
Next, the flames in the sea of fog burned for several hours before finally going out.
As the sea of fog burned out, two figures, one large and one small, appeared on the spot. The large one was a huge white skeleton that had long lost all life. The small one was Lu Yuan who had regained his human form, with an extremely frightening aura. After devouring Niu Yin's mana and essence, Lu Yuan now had the strength of a peak mid-stage Demon Sect master.
"He can actually devour the magical power of others!"
Shi Die's face was full of shock. Such ability was simply unbelievable and frightening.
"It seems that it is still because of the Beast King in Liangjie Mountain back then!" Shi Xiao said with a gloomy face.
"Beast King?" Shi Die showed a look of surprise on her face when she heard that, and looked at Shi Xiao in confusion.
"When I was serving as the city lord under Yuansha Saint Ancestor in Liangjie Mountain, I once encountered a beast king with the same devouring ability, and I almost died at its hands. If it weren't for this former Taoist friend who later killed the beast king, I'm afraid my fate would not be much better than Niu Yin's current one."
"Then now..." Shi Die looked at Lu Yuan from afar, her eyes full of disbelief.
"I'm not sure either, but I clearly remember that he was the one who put away the body of the beast king! And now I roughly understand why he had to compete with Niu Yin for the body of the mountain giant." Shi Xiao pondered for a moment and said slowly.
"But what I am most worried about is whether he will attack us next." Shi Die frowned, and his expression changed.
"Don't worry too much about it. With the dense earth-attributed power in the holy land, the two of us together are enough to be invincible. As long as we don't fall into the green mist, he can't do anything to us."
"Hey, he's flying towards us. Let's put the matter of Niu Yin aside for now." Shi Xiao couldn't help but speak when he saw Lu Yuan rushing towards them quickly.
