Chapter 160: Corpse Hiding Place (I)

Shi Yu walked slowly among the grass, and the rustling footsteps disturbed the chirping insects. Every step he took was followed by a piece of tranquility.

"Come out! I know you're here."

Shi Yu stood more than ten miles away from Zongmen's cave. The swaying shrubs in the night wind looked like countless figures swaying.

No one responded to Shi Yu, as if Shi Yu was just talking to himself against the night sky.

"Weird, aren't you following me just to lure me out? If you are still hiding, then I will do it directly."

There was still silence all around.

"Tsk! Run? Can you run away? You're following me sneakily, you've been hiding for so long, and you want to leave without making it clear?"

As soon as Shi Yu finished speaking, he rushed towards the hidden figure in the shadow of the bushes like thunder. The strong wind blew down countless grass and trees along the way and cut deep ravines.

"Huh? No?"

When Shi Yu landed, there was no one around him, and the figure he had just seen had disappeared. Looking around, Shi Yu smiled faintly.

"You run really fast!"

Very far away, a panicked figure ran away without looking back.

Shi Yu would never allow anyone to threaten his relatives and friends, so he jumped up and chased after him.

"Huh? No more?"

Shi Yu stood among the grass and trees that were empty again, frowning.

The sound of rustling wind and vegetation around him could not cover up the sound of rapid escape. The low and sparse vegetation could not hide the huge figure, but once he caught up with the figure, he disappeared without a trace as if he had suddenly escaped.

"Interesting, what kind of skill is this? You can shrink the ground to an inch and a hundred miles in an instant!" Once again losing sight of his target, Shi Yu shook his head and stopped, narrowing his eyes.

"Whoosh"!

The black shadow flitted in the distance again, seemingly panicked, but in fact it was full of provocation in Shi Yu's eyes.

Shi Yu didn't rush to chase him. He already felt that the black shadow was intentionally leading him to run somewhere. No matter where it was, Shi Yu didn't want to foolishly jump into someone else's trap.

"Brother! Don't run away! Where do you want to lead me? If you don't want to do it, I will go back!" Shi Yu had a joking tone and did not let the black figure stop. , he didn't seem to hear Shi Yu's words, but ran faster.

"Eh? Is he really running away again?" Shi Yu endured his temper and watched the man completely disappear from sight.

After standing still for a full hour, Shi Yu even ran for more than a hundred miles in the direction of Daoshan Sect, just to see if that person was playing another trick. But what surprised him was that the man never showed up again.

"Strange!" Shi Yu stood at the position where the black shadow finally jumped up, his spiritual thoughts suddenly released, and the palace building and a few people were reflected in his mind.

"You actually chased me here? Who is this person?"

Shi Yu asked himself in surprise. Unknowingly, he had chased him near Fufeng Sect. However, he was being led around and around, approaching from the side and behind, so he could not recognize him at the first time.

Looking towards the place where the black shadow disappeared, Shi Yu hesitated a little. Behind the dense forest was the back mountain of Fufeng Sect. The man never returned. Who knew what was going on inside.

"Is he an accomplice of Tong Rixing? He set up an ambush to lure me?" Shi Yu secretly thought, and then he shook his head to deny this speculation.

The Fufeng Sect, which was overwhelmed by spiritual thoughts, was desolate after the war. There were only a few people, and all of them were temporary caregivers left by the great elder.

If he really wants to set up an ambush, he will be discovered by the great elder.

"tread"!

Shi Yu avoided the guarding disciples and landed in the remote back mountain of Fufeng Sect. The quiet and dark mountain forest looks particularly mysterious when blown by the night wind.

"Where have you gone?"

Shi Yu looked around and saw no trace of the black shadow just now.

Suddenly, Shi Yu felt a dark wind blowing behind his head, like a night owl passing by silently.

Shi Yu hurriedly jumped forward, turned his body around with a twist of his feet, turned back and slid forward, and looked towards where the dark wind was coming from.

The black shadow was clearly visible, staring closely in front of Shi Yu with two deep-set eyes.

"Divine corpse! How come there are still divine corpses that slipped through the net?" The ugly black figure in front of Shi Yu looked like the bronze corpse covered in wrinkled flesh and skin. He suddenly thought of the couple who had slipped away halfway, and his heart was in confusion.

Before he could gather his strength to fight back, several overlapping rocks behind him rattled and sank into a secret door. Shi Yu had no time to dodge and was pushed in by the face-to-face divine corpse.

The whistling wind in his ears made Shi Yu know that he was falling into an abyss. Even though he could gather his energy to stabilize his body, Shi Yu did not dare to do so rashly. If there was even a slight pause, the black shadow like a maggot attached to a bone would pierce his face and chest with ten fingers like black iron daggers.

With ten fingers flicking, Shi Yu released thousands of qi swords to stab the divine corpse, but the divine corpse was as hard as steel, and all the qi swords flew apart when they hit it, without even scratching the skin.

The divine corpse felt pain after being hit, and it neighed several times, and the sharp light in its eyes was even more dazzling.

Stopping the panic in his heart, Shi Yu saw that the spell was ineffective, and punched the corpse in the chest repeatedly. The corpse seemed to just want to cut off Shi Yu's head, and the ten black claws never left his neck, but they didn't. To block the heavy punch on the chest and abdomen. Only then did Shi Yu gain some space for himself to distance himself from the divine corpse.

"Bang"!

When his back finally touched the ground, Shi Yu didn't dare to think too much and hurriedly hit the ground with one palm. He just pushed himself dozens of feet to the side, leaning against a large rock with his back, watching warily at the divine corpse that also fell here.

The sound of "clucking" sounded again, and Shi Yu was startled. He looked up and saw that the falling passage that had just appeared was blocked by bricks and stones, and it became an airtight and dark underground hall.

The God Corpse fell to the ground, but did not immediately chase after Shi Yu. Instead, it looked around, gently pushed open a few stone covers and looked inside, as if it wanted to fish out the corpses and feast on them.

Shi Yu then realized that the square stones around him were all stone coffins, and a few words suddenly popped up in his mind: corpse hiding place!

"It's bad! This place is full of powerful corpses. If this awakened God Corpse devours them one by one, it will be terrible!" Shi Yu watched the God Corpse open more than a dozen coffin covers with great vigilance. He was anxious about how to spread the news that there were still living corpses. Only those corpse-controlling magic tools could calmly deal with the current situation.

What surprised Shi Yu was that the God Corpse did not rush to devour the corpses in the coffins, but closed the coffin covers one by one, and then cast his eyes on Shi Yu. The hoarse and cracked voice made Shi Yu feel like a devil's voice filling his ears.

"Boy, I won't make things difficult for you. Let me absorb some Yuanli from you, and I'll let you go!"

"Huh? You can still talk? The divine corpse is enlightened?" Shi Yu asked in surprise.

The divine corpse did not answer Shi Yu's question again, and approached him step by step. The look of expectation in his eyes was so hot that Shi Yu felt that he was not looking at a cultivator, but a piece of heaven and earth spiritual material.

"You are so powerful. If you want to capture a cultivator and take Yuanli, wouldn't it be very simple? Why do you have to lead me here?" Shi Yu asked while retreating.

"No! No!" The divine corpse shook his head and continued to approach.

"Why not?"

"Hehe~ Hehe~" The divine corpse suddenly stopped, and the light in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and he became a little confused.

"No! No! Protect the world! Protect the world!" The divine corpse suddenly hugged his head and bumped against the stone coffin beside him in pain. It seemed that Shi Yu's question touched the taboo in his soul.

Looking at the somewhat crazy corpse, Shi Yu suddenly understood that this must be a corpse that has awakened its spiritual wisdom or still has the memory of the oath to protect the world. It is unwilling to harm the coffin man who is also a powerful corpse, nor is it willing to kill the monks from Tianqing. Then only monks from outside the world like him are the best supplement.

Thinking of this, he was also slightly relieved. Since this corpse will not devour its own kind to seek evolution, it will not cause chaos in the world for the time being. As long as he can get out smoothly, it will be fine.

Quietly moving towards the passage, Shi Yu was not interested in fighting with this unconscious corpse. It was hard to tell whether he was acting on instinct or deliberately luring him to death.

At present, it seems that this corpse is obviously extremely weak. It neither devours its companions nor kills Tianqing monks. With only its own strength, Shi Yu is confident that he can break the seal stone and get away smoothly.

But when Shi Yu moved, the God Corpse also moved, blocking the passage below like lightning, still making a hoarse sound in its mouth, and the light in its pupils began to gradually condense again.

"Damn it! I should have stopped making so many troubles earlier! It would be so much better to go back!" Shi Yu looked at the troublesome God Corpse and secretly blamed himself in his heart.

"Yuanli... leave your Yuanli... I will spare your life..."

"You wish!" Shi Yu shouted in a low voice and slowly retreated. Since the way in was blocked, he didn't believe that there was no proper way out here.

"If you don't stay... you will die!"

The God Corpse suddenly shouted and pounced, and its ten fingers like black iron sharp daggers stabbed Shi Yu's chest and brain again.

Shi Yu punched out angrily, took advantage of the momentum to jump back, but accidentally knocked down a sarcophagus.

It was unknown what material the sarcophagus was made of, but it was safe and sound under the huge impact of Shi Yu, but it was overturned to the ground and the powerful corpse placed inside was thrown out.

Shi Yu suddenly felt guilty and kept saying to himself: Dear sages, I am really sorry today. It was your brother who forced me to do this. You should get up and persuade him!

Shi Yu really couldn't feel hatred or hostility towards the divine corpse in front of him. He still admired these sages who were willing to sacrifice for the safety of the world.

When the divine corpse saw Shi Yu knock over the stone coffin and drop the dead body, it suddenly roared and attacked more fiercely, cutting Shi Yu's clothes several times and scratching white marks on the python leather armor.

Shi Yu dodged faster and didn't care about the stone coffins in the hall. He even intended to use the stone coffins to resist the attack.

This time it was really a mess. More than a hundred stone coffins in the underground hall were knocked over, and more than a dozen dead bodies were thrown out and scattered on the ground.

Although the God Corpse was unwilling to harm these withered corpses, it didn't care about them. It kept chasing Shi Yu with strange cries, and sometimes stepped on and knocked away the corpses that blocked its way, just to capture Shi Yu and seize his energy.

As the stalemate continued, Shi Yu gradually felt relieved. Although the God Corpse in front of him was intelligent and powerful, he was not much stronger than himself, and he could not absorb external spiritual energy to recover his energy. He could replenish his energy while consuming it. Although the replenishment was far behind the consumption, it was much better than the God Corpse that only gave out but not in.

Shi Yu made up his mind to drag out the battle until the God Corpse was exhausted.
