Chapter 136 Floating
Chapter 136 Floating
boom!
With a loud bang, countless shattered green stones flew in all directions. As the boulder shattered, the light in the space trembled. A moment later, the light in this underground space dimmed considerably, while the very center of the space, where the green stones were located, remained exceptionally bright.
"Hahahaha... Hahahaha..." A deafening burst of maniacal laughter erupted from the remnants of the green stone, then slowly rose into the air. Along with the laughter, beams of green light also rose into the air. These beams of green light peeled off from the green stone and projected into the air, finally converging in the air to form a monster laughing loudly at the sky.
The monster was the Floating One that Kawamoto Taro had mentioned. The Floating One was two meters tall, with a human-like upper body covered in bulging muscles and visible scars. Its lower body was a long snake tail covered in scales the size of a child's palm, with many marks from knife and axe cuts on the scales, which shimmered with a ghostly green light under the illumination.
"Ah, it really is a ghost!" Guo Shiyi exclaimed in shock. This usually sunny and confident girl was now trembling with fear, like a child afraid of thunder.
"Could this be the ancient Wu tribe?!" Qin Xiaochuan stared in shock at the monster in the sky, momentarily forgetting where he was. He had actually seen the legendary Wu tribe with human heads and snake bodies.
"&$%&$%……" The skeleton monster, which had stopped running, roared angrily at the floating creature in the air. Although it was unclear what it was saying, its anger and resentment could be felt.
Feifei, who was originally standing next to Xiaoying, also took two steps forward and let out a long howl at Fuyou.
Hearing the roar from below, the floating creature in the air lowered its head. It had long brown hair tied back with a cord strung with animal teeth, a leopard's head with bulging eyes, and a dragon's beard and a tiger's whiskers. It was exactly like the ferocious demon from the legends.
Fuyou's face was cold, and his eyes shot out a look full of mockery and contempt. His expression was no different from that of a fierce, hungry tiger eyeing a group of newborn lambs.
"Lord Floating Wanderer, you must be filled with rage after being imprisoned for thousands of years." Kawamoto Taro, standing below Floating Wanderer, sneered coldly, pointing at Qin Xiaochuan and the others. "Now, unleash all your rage on these ignorant humans."
"Everyone be careful." Seeing this situation, Han Kexin cautiously reminded the others.
Fuyou looked at everyone, then suddenly pulled his hand away from his mouth, letting out a sinister laugh. At the same time, he reached his hand to his chest and inserted it inside.
This left everyone speechless, but Qin Xiaochuan soon realized he had been too surprised. When Fuyou put his hand in front of his chest, his originally muscular chest suddenly turned into a transparent liquid, looking just like water. He then easily reached into his body and pulled out a black fork more than a meter long.
"That's possible too," Qin Xiaochuan said in surprise. "What kind of monster is he anyway?"
"He must have the ability to liquefy his body," Han Kexin said worriedly. "No wonder he was a capable subordinate of Gonggong, the ancient water god."
Qin Xiaochuan activated his Heavenly Eye and glanced at Fuyou. "Huh, why is his spiritual power level only level 2?"
Just as he finished speaking, Fuyou raised the black fork in his hand.
"Watch out, he's coming!" Han Kexin shouted coldly, while quickly forming several hand seals, preparing to unleash her skill.
"Pfft!" A spurt of blood flew through the air, its vivid crimson color deeply imprinted in everyone's shocked pupils.
Yoshida Goki opened his mouth and struggled to roll his eyes upward, but blood kept flowing down from the top of his head and quickly into his eyes, until finally all he could see was darkness.
Yoshida Goki's body quickly went limp, and the Floating Spirit pulled the long fork out of his head. At this moment, Qin Xiaochuan discovered that his spiritual power level had reached level 4.
"This..." Qin Xiaochuan felt his throat was dry and couldn't say a word.
Natsume Eiko and Miyazawa Shin looked terrified, but Kawamoto Taro smiled coldly, "Although Lord Floating Spirit's power cannot be fully restored for the time being, it should be more than enough to deal with these minor characters."
"&$%&$%……" the skeleton monster roared at the floating creature.
The floating creature glanced at the skeleton monster and let out a sinister laugh, but what happened next was completely unexpected. This incredibly cruel ancient evil god actually started chatting with the skeleton monster in an ancient language.
Although the other onlookers were dumbfounded, no one dared to make a move.
Qin Xiaochuan glanced at the people next to him. Han Kexin and Zhou Bin were both staring coldly at the floating objects in the air, while Guo Shiyi was pale and trembling all over.
"I've never seen you so scared before?" he said to her, puzzled. Was this really the Guo Shiyi he knew?
"I've never seen you so scared before?" he said to her, puzzled. Was this really the Guo Shiyi he knew?
"Of course...of course I was scared, it was a ghost!" Guo Shiyi said, trembling.
"But it looks like a monster, just like the monsters we saw in the Stone Forest. I didn't see you being this scared back then."
"The ones in the Forest of Steles are just monsters, but this one is a vengeful spirit, a ghost! How can the two be compared?"
"What's the difference between the two?"
"Of course there's a difference. One is a monster, and the other is a ghost. They're completely different." As she spoke, Guo Shiyi closed her eyes, no longer daring to look at the monster in the sky.
"It's just a different way of addressing people," Qin Xiaochuan said speechlessly. "You have a psychological problem, considering how many horror movies you've watched."
"It's because I've watched too many horror movies that I'm scared." The girl suddenly grabbed his arms with both hands, her long nails almost digging into his flesh.
"Ugh!" The sudden pain made him gasp. The scene was all too familiar, so Qin Xiaochuan could only comfort her, saying, "Just imagine you're seeing a monster... uh, no, it is a monster, not a ghost."
"No, the thought of ghosts makes my heart race." Guo Shiyi shook her head vigorously.
Qin Xiaochuan was speechless. Just then, he turned his gaze to Xiaoying and pointed at the motionless little girl, saying, "You're not even as good as Xiaoying. She's just a child, and she's so calm. You, her aunt, will be laughed at by her in the future."
Hearing his words, Xiaoying looked up at him with a pitiful expression, "Uncle, I'm so scared I can't even move."
Qin Xiaochuan: "..."
"Qin Xiaochuan." At this moment, Han Kexin's cold voice suddenly came from the side.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you remember what you said?" she said softly.
"Of course, I'll protect you with my life." He said, stroking the little girl's head and smiling, "So you don't need to be afraid."
"Mmm." The little girl nodded, and Qin Xiaochuan could feel her body relax a lot.
"But how long do they plan to talk?" he asked Han Kexin speechlessly. "The longer it drags on, the more uneasy people will feel."
"There's nothing we can do. They haven't spoken for thousands of years. Today they've finally met someone they can talk to, so they can't let this opportunity pass them by," Han Kexin said helplessly. "You know, right now, besides each other, no one else in the world can understand what they're saying."
