Not only did he resolve the crisis, but he also got inspiration to create his own skills, which made Meng Xiang overjoyed. In the dongxue, there was nothing but snake corpses all over the floor. Meng Xiang's spiritual energy was greatly damaged, his right arm was tingling, and the wound on his left arm that was previously bitten by the green snake was recurring. Obviously, the weakening of his spiritual energy could no longer suppress the curse of the poisonous snake. Meng Xiang could only sit in the dongxue filled with a foul smell, eat military ration pills, and try to recover his physical and spiritual strength.
However, Meng Xiang didn't have much time. The commotion caused by the blast at the cemetery would soon be investigated by the police. Meng Xiang was not afraid of the police, but he didn't want to cause trouble either. So when his spiritual energy was restored enough to suppress the curse and the stinging sensation in his right arm was greatly reduced, he stood up and went into the small passage.
The bright light in front of him not only brought light to the dark cave, but also made the atmosphere even more eerie and terrifying. Meng Xiang went through the passage and came to another spacious cave.
This cave is different from the outside, and it has obvious traces of human construction. The square cave, like a room, has very smooth walls, and each of the four walls is inlaid with a piece of glowing stone.
In the middle of the cave, between four rows of black fences, a rhombus-shaped coffin was placed. This coffin was quite similar to a Western vampire coffin, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, with a faint green light emitting from each corner. On the side of the coffin, a corpse in a monk's robe sat cross-legged. Although the corpse was dry, it still gave people a kind aura. Obviously, this must be the golden body of the Yi Xiaojiao.
However, shouldn't the Yi Xiaojiao's golden body be placed on the coffin? If the Yi Xiaojiao is outside, then what is inside the coffin? This made Meng Xiang very curious. He hurried over and looked at the Yi Xiaojiao's golden body from front to back, but there was no bracelet-like item on the body.
The seal bracelet must be hidden somewhere in this cave. If it is not on the body of the serving character Jin, then it can only be in the coffin.
Meng Xiang opened the lid of the coffin with great hope. The lid was not big, but it was unexpectedly heavy. Meng Xiang tried his best to push it open. He leaned over to look inside the coffin and saw a strange humanoid monster over 2 meters tall, with a burly body, a red body, and two horns on its head. Meng Xiang guessed that this creature must be the former ghost.
It is said that Qiangui is the most powerful shikigami, and Meng Xiang was also very afraid of him. However, seeing Qiangui's body was as stiff as a stone sculpture, he felt more at ease. With the light of the light bead, he carefully looked at Qiangui. He saw that Qiangui had a golden bracelet on his left wrist and a dragon-shaped golden axe in his right hand. This golden axe was very cool, with a lifelike golden dragon body as the axe handle, and the dragon's front claws grasping a blue gem. The axe blade extended from the gem, and the whole axe was very imposing.
It is said that the weapon of the Shikigami Maekage is the Diamond Axe, which not only has great power, but also contains incredible exorcism abilities. The weapon in Maekage's hand must be the Diamond Axe, and Meng Xiang was overjoyed. The Diamond Axe is at least a B-level weapon, and it requires at least 5,000 points to exchange in the main god space. It also contains the ability to exorcise evil spirits. If he could get such a weapon, it would be a great gain.
As long as the reincarnationists bring back the weapons or equipment they get in the plot world, they can take them as their own, so Meng Xiang decided to take the opportunity to steal the Vajra Axe as well.
However, apart from the bracelet on the former ghost's left hand, there was no other bracelet-like item found in the entire coffin. Meng Xiang once again looked at the bracelet on the former ghost's hand. This bracelet was gold in color and inlaid with three emeralds, which was obviously a valuable item.
"Could this be the seal bracelet?" Meng Xiang muttered to himself, reached out for the bracelet's clasp, untied the bracelet, and took it out.
"Complete the side story mission, obtain 6,000 side stories, B-level side story god's exciting words suddenly rang in Meng Xiang's ears.
"Is it that simple?" Meng Xiang blurted out. Although the green snakes and the green snake king on Ikoma Mountain were very scary, if he did not have a spiritual physique that could temporarily suppress the poisonous snake curse, he would probably have died long ago. However, this was a B-level difficulty branch story, and the obstacles he encountered were obviously somewhat easy.
Meng Xiang was not a person who liked to dwell on trivial matters. Since the mission was completed, it was definitely true, so he didn't care about it anymore. He put away the sealing bracelet, and then reached out to pull out the diamond axe. Suddenly, he felt that the hands holding the diamond axe seemed to move slightly.
Dead bodies don't move, and those that can move are not dead bodies. Meng Xiang's mind was as fast as lightning, and he supported himself with his feet and jumped 5 meters away.
"Kacha!" A golden light flashed, and the coffin broke into several pieces. The former ghost who had been lying straight in the coffin suddenly crawled out. On his ferocious face, his blood-red eyes glanced at the golden body of the servant, and snorted very arrogantly: "Old man, it would be fine if you died, but why did you seal me? Fortunately, the seal has been opened now. I have been trapped by you for so long, and I am so hungry." He opened his mouth, showing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and looked at Meng Xiang and said: "Boy, did you open my seal?"
"That's right." Meng Xiang said while being alert.
"That's good. As a reward, I decided to eat you and make you a part of my body." After the former ghost said this, he waved the Vajra Axe and strode towards Meng Xiang.
The aura released by the previous ghost put Meng Xiang under great pressure, and he could not help but keep unlocking his potential. "Since I saved you, why did you want to eat me? Don't you know that since I have the ability to unlock the seal, I am definitely not an ordinary person?"
"Haha!" The former ghost raised his head and laughed: "It is precisely because you are not an ordinary person that you are worthy of me to eat you. The spiritual energy emanating from your body is gradually getting stronger, which makes me very greedy. If I eat someone like you, I believe that even if Yi Xiaojiao is reborn, he will not be able to seal me again."
Meng Xiang cursed the Lord God for being cunning in his heart. This side story mission was not as simple as just completing the task. Whoever unlocked the seal would be hunted down by the former ghost. This was the real complete mission.
Even if you complete the mission, you still have to save your life. The side storyline is so demanding.
The ghost in front of him gave Meng Xiang the feeling that he was extremely powerful, and the diamond axe in his hand was indestructible. If he were to fight with him in the cave, firstly, it would not be easy for him to perform well, and secondly, if it caused a landslide, he would be crushed to death in vain, which would be too cowardly.
Without saying anything, Meng Xiang turned around and ran out. But just as he started, the sound of the ghost in front swinging the diamond axe breaking the wind could be heard from behind.
"So fast, both power and speed." Meng Xiang was very shocked, but at the same time, a feeling of blood boiling gradually emerged.
"Boom!" Meng Xiang had already used the "Shave" to escape the attack range of the ghost in front of him, and the Diamond Axe just hit the ground. The whole cave was shaking, and sand and mud kept peeling off the cave wall, as if the cave would collapse at any time.
Terrible power. Meng Xiang didn't dare to stay and flew out of the cave like an arrow, followed closely by the ghost in front.
"Swoosh!" Meng Xiang and the ghost in front rushed out of the tomb one after another, and then the ground sank and the tomb was sealed again.
The ghost in front looked at the collapsed tomb without any pity at all. He turned around and laughed loudly: "Haha, old man, I won't accompany you anymore."
"Former ghost, are you doing this to your master?" A crisp and tender voice sounded from not far away from the two of them. A handsome boy of about 15 or 16 was standing not far away. The boy had fair skin and tender flesh, and was dressed in fashionable casual clothes. He looked delicate and no different from an ordinary person. The only difference was the coldness revealed in his crystal eyes. Anyone who was looked at by him would feel frozen instantly.
"Hou Gui, I didn't expect you to be like this after reincarnation. However, you are too much like a human, so Yi Xiaojiao let you reincarnate, but let me be sealed and reincarnated. This is too unreasonable." He said fiercely: "When he was alive, I helped him kill many ghosts. After he died, I accompanied him for thousands of years. Am I still sorry for him? Now that my seal has been released, I can live a carefree life from now on. I can eat people if I want to, and destroy if I want to. No one can stop me."
"Is that boy the back ghost?" Meng Xiang was surprised to hear the front ghost's words. However, the unique aura emanating from the back ghost was indeed not an ordinary person.
The back ghost stared at the front ghost with cold eyes, and reached out to take out a short stick from behind. This stick, which was less than 30 centimeters long, immediately stretched to nearly 2 meters when it was held in the back ghost's hand. A cold iron stick appeared in the back ghost's hand: "Front ghost, the master ordered that you cannot cause trouble to the human world. I can't imagine someone is so bold as to burn Ikoma Mountain, break into the Snake Palace, and kill the Green Snake King. But it's okay this way. When I seal you again, I will sink you into the sea. I believe you will never come out to do evil."
"With you? Stop joking." The former ghost said loudly: "If you want to fight, wait until I'm full. I don't want the prey in front of me to run away."
"Are you done?" Meng Xiang had already taken out the HK-MP5 submachine gun and fired countless bullets forward.
