Killing God - Chapter 221
Chapter 221 Poisonous Gas
“Roar!”
A soul-shaking roar suddenly rang out in this quiet cave. The Corpse King lying on the Corpse Mountain suddenly stood up. Its enormous body looked down at Shen Shi and the Little Hei Pig, becoming even bigger. The fresh aura of life emitted by the man and the pig was now more beautiful than anything else in his eyes. Even the strange eyes of ghosts and fires revealed bloodthirsty, cruel, and greedy gazes.
The desire for flesh and blood was the natural nature of most ghosts, and zombies were one of the most greedy.
With a loud thud, the Corpse King’s enormous body actually jumped down from the mountain. When it landed on the ground, it even caused the ground nearby to tremble slightly. One could imagine how heavy this enormous body was, and how powerful the power contained within it was.
However, after Shen Shi was initially shocked, At the same time, he saw that the Corpse King’s body was not as stable as Mount Tai’s. On the contrary, even though the Corpse King was much more agile than those clumsy and slow-moving zombies, his body still shook a few times when he jumped off the ground. However, he saw that the joints on his feet did not bend much to dampen the vibration and were stiffly upright, so the extent of the shaking of his body became even more obvious.
Shen Shi’s heart skipped a beat. However, before he could think about it, the Corpse King stabilized his body and immediately took large strides towards them. At the same time, he opened his mouth wide and extended out two sharp fangs. As he roared, the stench of the wind spread out, causing one’s heart to tremble like a ghost.
If a coward saw this, Even if he was directly scared to death, However, Shen Shi was clearly not one of them. Although this Corpse King did look terrifying, he had seen many similar ghosts in the past. Ordinary ghost zombies were present, including the one in the deepest part of the Demon Catching Cave on the Demon Island. However, it was no weirder and more terrifying than this Corpse King.
Although Shen Shi was a little nervous in his heart, he was still calm. He stared at the charging Corpse King, raised his right hand, and a fireball appeared out of thin air, burning on his palm.
The blazing flames instantly illuminated the surroundings. The fireball instantly became the brightest thing in the cave except for the strange red river. The natural fear of all ghosts in the world was not only the lightning, but also the blazing flames.
The Corpse King’s footsteps almost subconsciously paused. However, it was no ordinary ghost after all. Whether it was in terms of body size, strength, or grade, it was far superior. This ignition ball was not something to be feared by it at all. The moment it stopped, it was only an instinctive reaction. A moment later, the Corpse King let out another ferocious roar. Instead of slowing down, it increased its speed and rushed towards Shen Shi.
However, just as it seemed to be unstoppable, a black shadow suddenly jumped out in front of it. The pure black color seemed to merge with the surrounding darkness, so much so that the Corpse King did not even recognize what it was at first glance. However, seeing the black shadow pouncing towards his head, the Corpse King instinctively roared and raised his hand to hit him.
“Pfft!” The voice was dull. The black shadow rolled around and flew back a few steps. Then, it landed on the ground and landed on all four of its limbs. However, the Corpse King’s powerful attack did not seem to have caused much damage to the black shadow. After the black shadow landed on the ground, its body trembled. From the side, it could clearly see pieces of armor on its body, and there were no other injuries. Afterwards, the black figure turned around and grinned at the Corpse King, letting out a low roar.
It was Xiao Hei, and the strange armor pieces on its body naturally originated from its bloodline talent as a stone-skinned pig demonic beast.
Shen Shi, who was standing at the back, couldn’t help but be shocked when he saw Xiao Hei rush out and rush towards the Corpse King. He was truly worried. This Corpse King’s aura was extraordinary. It seemed that it was not something ordinary ghosts could compare to. He was truly worried that Xiao Hei could withstand the attacks of such monsters. However, when he saw that Little Black was sent flying by the attack of the Corpse King, he looked at the living tiger after landing and actually glared at the Corpse King angrily. Obviously, it wasn’t a big deal. Shen Shi’s heart immediately calmed down.
Originally, based on his initial thoughts, this Corpse King was clearly an extremely powerful monster. Not to mention his Origin Condensation Realm beginner realm, even if it was an Intermediate or High Origin Condensation Realm cultivator, he might not be able to defeat this Corpse King in terms of strength alone. However, judging from the Corpse King’s movements and actions, it was clear that he was not consistent and agile. Perhaps, if he retreated while avoiding a head-on battle, he might not necessarily lose.
However, since Little Hei was able to withstand the Corpse King with his heavily armored talent, Shen Shi naturally didn’t need to be so troublesome. Seeing the Corpse King’s attention being pulled over by Little Hei, Shen Shi, who was standing behind him, couldn’t be too relaxed. After a knowing smile, he raised his wrist and a fireball spell shot out.
④
Compared to the Corpse King’s enormous body, The short Little Hei looked like a weak ant in front of the Corpse King. However, although the difference in body size was so great, Little Hei didn’t seem to be too afraid of this fierce and ferocious Corpse King after his initial nervousness. Instead, he let out a series of low roars and gritted his teeth in a ferocious and furious manner. It seemed that he had a deep hostility towards the Corpse King.
This scene landed in the eyes of Shen Shi, who was standing behind him. He felt that it was very strange, Normally, when he encountered some powerful demonic beasts outside, Little Hei would sometimes be lazy or shy. However, when facing a Corpse King who looked stronger than all the demonic beasts he had encountered in the past, he did not show the slightest bit of fear or retreat. It seemed that this Little Hei pig even had some intentions of disliking demons like ghosts.
The Corpse King was shocked to see the little black pig’s seemingly indifferent appearance after the attack just now. However, most ghosts like zombies had simple and clumsy brains. Even a Corpse King was at most slightly more intelligent than an ordinary zombie. After all, it was stronger than other zombies in terms of physical body and strength.
Since he couldn’t understand why such an ant-like pig could block his attack, the Corpse King didn’t think too much about it. Instead, he instinctively pushed his thirst for fresh flesh and blood to overwhelm everything. He let out another terrifying roar and strode forward, stepping on the pig with one foot.
This kick was enough to crush the black pig.
However, at this moment, Suddenly, a ball of fire lit up at the corners of the Corpse King’s eyes. A blazing heat instantly approached his side face. The Corpse King roared angrily and retreated abruptly. However, his stiff legs dragged him back again, causing him to retreat much slower. He could only dodge his head, but was hit on his left shoulder by the fireball with a “bang”.
The flames suddenly lit up and dimmed down. The Corpse King’s body trembled for a moment. After shaking a few times, it stabilized. Turning to look at his left shoulder, he saw that the skin and flesh on his rusty shoulder were already charred black.
“Roar …”
The angered Corpse King let out a deafening roar and charged towards Shen Shi. Shen Shi took a few steps back and the black shadow in front of him instantly jumped up. However, Little Hei did not give up on his master and blocked the furious Corpse King again.
Shen Shi took a deep breath and flicked his fingers. Flames rose from his fingers once again. With the help of the little pig, the time gap for him to cast his spell was extremely loose. There was no need to use the talisman in the Ruyi bag for the time being. After all, there weren’t many talismans for a single fireball spell, and the effects of other spells on ghosts weren’t too great.
However, when he saw the scorched black color on the Corpse King’s shoulder, Shen Shi frowned slightly. He thought to himself that even after the Heavenly Underworld Curse had refined his fireball technique, its power still seemed to be somewhat insufficient. This time, Shen Shi was once again determined that if he returned to Lingxiao Sect, Jinhong Mountain, in the future, he would definitely go to the hall to find a way to cultivate some Second Grade spells. Apart from that, it seemed that he had to prepare more talismans. The more the better …
This thought flashed through his mind like lightning, but Shen Shi’s hand did not stop. Taking advantage of Little Hei’s entanglement with the Corpse King, Shen Shi swiftly swam around, and every time he aimed at the gap, he would fire a fireball at the Corpse King’s head.
No doubt about it, The Corpse King’s fleshly body, which was as strong as bronze muscles and bones, The weakest and most important thing is the head, It could tell from its subconscious dodging of the fireball, However, the Corpse King was not a ghost that was skilled in agility, Coupled with the constant harassment of Little Hei pigs, After so many years of concentrated cultivation, Shen Shi’s spells had already gained incomparably rich experience in fighting and conquering in the Demon Realm. Fireball spells were cast one after another from extremely crafty angles. After barely dodging the first few fireballs, the Corpse King could no longer dodge them. The giant head was smashed by several fireballs in succession.
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!” A muffled sound sounded from time to time. It was the muffled sound of a blazing fireball hitting the Corpse King’s face heavily. Every time it struck, it could be seen that the Corpse King was stunned for a moment, and his body would stagger a few times. Clearly, the damage on his head was much more severe than the rest of his body.
Under such harassment, Not long after, he became furious, He howled desperately, He opened and closed his hands, The black claws seemed to want to tear apart the flesh and blood of all living creatures in front of him, However, the Little Hei pig’s agility was far superior to the tall Corpse King’s. Moreover, its thick armor made its skin thick to the point of making people speechless. It was clearly only a thin, black and shiny pig skin, but such a terrifying Corpse King was helpless against this layer of leather armor. It repeatedly incited the Corpse King to rage and roar like thunder.
As for Shen Shi, he had been standing far away. Whenever the Corpse King was angered by the fireball technique, he would turn around and rush towards him. Shen Shi would hide to the side early. When Little Hei wrapped around the Corpse King again, he would come out and aim at the gap and use the fireball technique to ferociously attack the Corpse King.
After so many rounds, the Corpse King’s footsteps had already started to become messy, and even his roar had dropped by quite a bit, as if he was going to lose.
Just as Shen Shi’s spirits lifted and he was about to summon Little Black to work harder, the Corpse King seemed to have some intelligence after all because he had been refined for a long time. He actually turned around and directly ran towards the Corpse Mountain behind him, but he wanted to run.
This was the first time in his life that Shen Shi had seen ghosts that were actually afraid of dying and fleeing. He couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment before he reacted. He hurriedly beckoned Little Hei to catch up. At the same time, he activated a fireball technique to hit the back of the Corpse King’s head.
This time, if it was solid, it would definitely make the Corpse King sad. The little black pig seemed to have seen the dawn of victory, and it seemed very excited. “Ow!” It cried and pounced towards the Corpse King.
Its agility was far superior to that of the Corpse King, and it caught up with him in a few strikes. For some reason, the Corpse King’s body suddenly stopped.
Shen Shi’s heart suddenly jumped behind him, as if he had sensed something. He shouted loudly, “Be careful!”
Little Black was currently soaring into the air. His four hooves flew up and he was about to kick the Corpse King’s head. Who knew that the Corpse King would suddenly roar and suddenly turn around. The terrifying face of his azure-faced fangs was instantly filled with a dense black gas. Then, he opened his mouth and let out a “hu” sound from the big bloody mouth. The fishy stench overflowed and a dense black gas sprayed out from his small black face.
The black gas that was as thick as ink enveloped Xiao Hei’s head in the blink of an eye. The little pig’s body suddenly stiffened, and then it fell down from the air like a stone. With a “bang”, it heavily fell to the ground.
