Trials of the Abyss

Chapter 26: The unwilling beast soul

Views:

The battle broke out in an instant!

Ouyang Duanhai, who was unarmed, felt his sternum twisting strangely. The crimson phoenix, which was spreading its wings as if ready to fly, had its wings extended all the way to his armpits and arm bones.

His entire limbs were filled with the enchanting phoenix totem, and his movements suddenly became agile and swift.

Like a ray of deep red blood, Ouyang Duanhai, whose eyes had long lost all trace of humanity, appeared in front of Jinyang in the blink of an eye.

He waved his wing-like hands and easily knocked the "cicada wing swords" to the bottom of the pool.

“Wow!”

A captivating blood-red beam of light burst out from the top of Ouyang Duanhai's head, and there seemed to be many leaf-like feathers in the beam of light.

Feathers whistled in the blood-red light column and the faint sound of a phoenix's cry could be heard, causing pain in the eyes of those watching at the bottom of the pool.

At first glance, it seemed as if there was another long, thin, deep red phoenix bone piercing Ouyang Duanhai through the top of his head.

Jinyang was shocked and pulled off a jade pendant with a Chilong carved on it from his waist and quickly put it in front of him.

The exquisite Chilong totem in the jade pendant released an icy halo with its intricate patterns, causing the water in the pool on Jinyang's chest to freeze instantly and turn into a large piece of solid rock ice.

"Bang!"

Ouyang Duanhai rushed over violently, smashing the ice and rocks into pieces, causing Jinyang, who was holding the life-saving "Hanchi Jade Pendant", to be thrown far to the bottom of the pool, vomiting blood.

As soon as he moved away from the phoenix bone, Ouyang Duanhai, who had become extremely bloodthirsty, stopped chasing him and stood still at the giant python's skull.

His pair of blood-red eyes were staring at the bright white light that was condensing bit by bit in the center of the phoenix bone.

A blood-red beam of light burst out from his crown, with numerous feathers swirling inside it, as if arranging some kind of exquisite array, trying to absorb the phoenix marrow that was about to take shape in the phoenix bones.

Jinyang fell to the bottom of the pool, with a pool of blood gushing out above his head. He hurriedly used the jade pendant carved with a Chilong in his hand to absorb strands of his blood.

Ouyang Duanhai, whose finger was on the giant python's skull, looked extremely anxious and urged Hong Tai and others to kill it quickly.

Hong Tai and others who had intended to help him suddenly seemed hesitant when they saw Ouyang Duanhai, who had become an alien, smash the ice rock condensed from Jinyang's protective jade pendant with his own strength.

The ferocious fighting power displayed by Ouyang Duanhai exceeded Hong Tai's expectations. The dark ghost monk who had previously pursued Zhou Qingchen did not expect that the coward recognized by the seven major families would become so difficult to deal with.

After hesitating for a moment, he threw away the iron chain and no longer cared about Ning Yao's life or death.

He shook his head at Jinyang, told him with his eyes not to be anxious, and communicated with the two leaders of Tongmai Realm through actions.

Seeing that the phoenix marrow was about to be formed, Jinyang, who was afraid that Ouyang Duanhai would get there first, climbed up from the bottom of the pool despite his injuries.

With an angry look on his face, he repeatedly signaled to Hong Tai, urging him again to kill Ouyang Duanhai quickly.

Hong Tai, who didn't know what the gradually gathering amber light was, suddenly became suspicious.

He didn't know much about the mystery of the Tianfeng remains, and the leader of the dark ghosts didn't explain it to him clearly when he came.

Jinyang is certainly different from him. Given Jinyang's relationship with Kuishou, he must know more secrets related to Tianfeng.

Ouyang Duanhai and Jinyang were both staring at the white light inside the phoenix bone, looking so eager and eager. Could it be

Thinking of this, Hong Tai also had his plans.

He motioned the python to come over, touched its head, and let this loyal python wander around the bottom of the pool, searching for any possible abnormalities.

He waved to Xu Rui and the masked leader again, asking the two to stand on his left and right.

After doing all this, he waited for Jinyang to get up and come over, and then the four of them went to Ouyang Duanhai together.

At the bottom of the pool, in a dark place close to the rock wall, Pang Jian watched the battle that was about to break out.

Jinyang, a man of noble status, relied on a jade pendant to dodge Ouyang Duanhai's angry attack, and immediately became honest and cautious.

The python that Hongtai kept in captivity began to move at the bottom of the pond.

When he noticed the python, it seemed to be aware of his presence and swam towards him quietly.

Pang Jian secretly thought that something was wrong.

He originally wanted to wait until An Gui and Ouyang Duanhai were fighting to the death and then take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. However, he did not expect Hong Tai to be so vicious that he would actually send the python to find him.

Hong Tai's python was not only intelligent, but also faster than him in the water. He found it difficult to stop it.

He was ready to retract into the stone gate immediately!

However, just as he was about to get away from this trouble, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his dantian near his belly button.

In the depths of his spiritual sea that was running every day, somehow huge waves were stirred up, as if some foreign object was disturbed and was rushing around in his dantian.

Pang Jian immediately cried out in pain.

The noise of the living creatures in his Dantian spiritual sea rushing around made him wonder if the practice of "Hutian Yangqi Jue" had caused him to go astray and cause hallucinations.

His scalp was numb with pain, and he no longer had the strength to retreat back to the stone gate.

He had not cultivated his spiritual consciousness, so he could not see the condition of his spiritual sea. He just had a vague feeling that something was struggling and trying to break out of his spiritual sea.

He bared his teeth and roared, spitting out bubbles under the water, and making low strange noises from his mouth.

He held the dragon-patterned spear in one hand and covered his stomach with the other, and was forced to squat down due to the pain.

He secretly swore at this moment that when he practiced "Hutian Yangqi Jue" in the future, he would never absorb any energy.

He believed that the abnormality in his dantian was caused by his massive absorption of "Xuanyin power" and the acidic and toxic energy in the pool water.

Almost fainting from the pain, he tried to look forward and saw the python swimming towards him.

The python is as thick as a bucket, with black and white snake patterns. It holds its head high, and its green pupils are like will-o'-the-wisp.

Now, he didn't even have the strength to escape and could only watch the python come and eat him.

It's like the phoenix bone that fell from the sky and devoured the giant python at the bottom of the pool.

It seems that he will suffer the same tragic end.

Pang Jian, feeling helpless, was ready to be eaten by the python, but he found that the pain in his dantian was rapidly subsiding.

Looking down, he saw that the hand he was holding his stomach had dark lines coming out from between his fingers.

The pitch-black lines looked like the poisonous mucus secreted from the giant python's mouth and mixed into the pool of water above.

With each black line that came out from between his fingers, the pain in his dantian subsided a little, and as the black lines came out from between his fingers, they were still entangled with each other.

It entwined and entwined until it turned into a thin black snake.

The black snake was only as thick as a child's arm, and its entire body was covered with black iron scales. However, in Pang Jian's feeling, the black snake had no flesh and blood, but rather a kind of materialized dark energy.

Suddenly, he remembered the so-called "spiritual evil" and the vague blood shadow.

same!

"A spirit, or... a soul?"

Pang Jian looked at the black snake made up of black lines in a daze. He always felt that this black snake was the giant python transformed from its animal soul.

The python that was captive by Hong Tai and was running towards him was about to swallow Pang Jian when it saw the black line quickly turning into a snake.

The python with green eyes finally saw the shape of the black snake clearly, and fear suddenly appeared in its cold green eyes!

Its raised neck and snake head trembled slightly.

It seemed to want to escape immediately, but like Pang Jian who was in excruciating pain before, it couldn't even move.

It watched helplessly as the strange black snake, which was many times smaller than itself, crawled into its wide-open mouth and disappeared into its snake head.

Then, the strange snake swallowed up its soul and turned it into its own body.

The "evil spirits" in the world can possess fellow practitioners, and vicious creatures at the level of the "Dark Anaconda" can naturally possess their own kind with their animal souls.

The beast soul of the "Dark Anaconda" quickly took over the body of the python, and the python's green pupils turned into pure black.

It adapted itself a little, slowly stretched its body, and pounced on Pang Jian as before.

Pang Jian, whose body had just recovered, was a little confused by this scene. Before he could figure out what was happening, he saw the python pounce on him again.

Pang Jian was forced to pick up the dragon-patterned spear to fight.

He suddenly jumped up from the water, the brute force in his arm bones bursting out, and he stabbed the python with black pupils without caring whether he could succeed or not.

The tip of his spear was just pointing at the python, and its eyes turned into strange, pure black snake eyes!

The python with a pair of pitch-black eyes stared straight at him, or rather... it looked at the crudely shaped bronze door pendant under the gap in his clothes on his chest.

Fear gradually emerged in the python's pure black eyes, and it began to hesitate.

It twisted its body in the water, and its tail swung in disorder, allowing it to swim in any direction, or helping it to move forward and bite Pang Jian who was coming for his life.

I don't know what it was thinking about. Even though it could have succeeded quickly, it didn't dare to continue charging.

When Pang Jian was about to make contact with it, its swinging tail seemed to turn into a snake head, carrying it rapidly backwards.

It actually escaped!

"The beast soul of the giant python at the bottom of the pond dissipated in the dark water and was absorbed into my Dantian Spiritual Sea along with the acid and poison energy!"

"This is the ray of hope left for the giant python when its flesh and blood were eaten! But Feng Gu only wants its flesh and blood, and has no intention of its animal soul."

After the dragon-patterned spear pierced into the air, Pang Jian finally understood the situation as he watched the python escape.

The black line that flowed out of his body and the black strange snake that condensed into it were the owner of the huge snake bones, and also the source of terror that made the Black Water Pond a restricted area.

—That is the soul of the giant python at the bottom of the pond.

Now, it possesses the body of a python kept in captivity in Hongtai, and moves around in the body of a weaker python.

When Pang Jian finally figured it out, the escaping python made a big circle at the bottom of the pool, then suddenly emerged from behind him and bit his back.

Pang Jian was caught off guard and was completely unable to react effectively this time, and his entire back fell into the python's mouth.

The severe pain came instantly!

"Mumble!"

Pang Jian screamed in pain and choked on some water. He was surprised to find that his spine and sternum were not broken by the python.

It was also at this moment that he once again felt the heat of the bronze medal on his chest!

This burning sensation instantly spread throughout his body at an incredible speed, even covering the python that was biting him!

The "Dark Anaconda" did not dare to kill Pang Jian head-on, so it possessed the body of its own kind. It also used a trick to deliberately circle around, hoping to bite Pang Jian to death with one bite, but it did not expect that Pang Jian's sternum was as hard as iron.

When it wanted to let go and escape again, a strange feeling of heat quietly spread from Pang Jian's body towards it.

The "Dark Anaconda" realized that something was wrong. This time it was the one that wanted to escape, but it was already unable to do so.
