Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 692 Empty City

The sky monkey's roar echoed at the top of the empty mountains, and its figure was like a red lightning, quickly approaching Ying and Zhang Tao. Shadow's eyes were cold, his hands quickly formed seals, and several dark spears shot out from behind him, hitting the Sky Monkey with a sharp sound of breaking wind.

However, when these dark spears touched the red flames around the monkey, they were instantly evaporated and turned into wisps of black smoke that dissipated in the air. Ying frowned slightly, obviously this result was within his expectation, but it also made him more clearly aware of the power of the Sky Monkey.

“Ying, there’s a house ahead!” Zhang Tao suddenly pointed ahead and shouted.

Ying looked in the direction of Zhang Tao's finger and saw an independent wooden house standing on the top of the mountain range. This wooden house has a rustic style and is surrounded by flowers and plants. A stone path winds up to the front of the house. Several stone tables are scattered in the yard. The yard surrounded by wooden fences gives people a sense of peace and tranquility.

There are obviously people living here, and looking at the elegant environment and the blooming flowers, the people who live here must be extraordinary. Ying was even more confused, how could there be such a house in such a place? And looking at the spiritual array around the house, it was obviously set up to prevent spiritual beasts from attacking.

 While they were observing the wooden house, the Sky Monkey had already caught up with them. The red flames gushing out from its body became more intense, as if it was about to set the entire mountain range on fire. The intense flames made Zhang Tao feel hot and difficult to get close to.

Now the Sky Monkey has completely lost its mind. In its eyes, it only sees Shadow, the abominable dark attribute spiritualist. It roared and charged at Shadow, as if it wanted to tear him into pieces to vent its anger.

"There is no other way, Zhang Tao, please step back." Ying said in a deep voice, "Check to see if there is anyone in that house. Don't let our battle affect the wooden house and the people inside."

 Zhang Tao nodded and quickly retreated. As he retreated, he observed the wooden house, trying to find any sign of anyone living inside. However, he didn't notice any movement, as if the wooden house was simply an empty house.

 But Ying knew that this wooden house was definitely not simple. He could feel the powerful power hidden behind the spiritual formation, and that power made him feel palpitations. He knew that if the owner of this power wanted to harm them, they would probably die long ago without a burial place.

The Sky Monkey's attacks became more and more fierce, and Ying had no time to think about the wooden house anymore. He concentrated on responding to the Sky Monkey's attack, and kept forming seals with his hands. Spiritual techniques flew out of his hands one after another, intertwining with the Sky Monkey's flames.

Roaring sounds continued, and the aftermath of the explosion made the surrounding air tremble. However, no matter how fierce the Sky Monkey's attack was, it was still unable to break through Shadow's defense. Shadow's spiritual magic is like an indestructible barrier, firmly keeping the Sky Monkey out.

 The battle lasted for a long time, and the Sky Monkey's attacks gradually became weaker. The flames on its body also began to dim, and it had obviously consumed a lot of power. But Ying still remained calm and collected, as if this battle did not pose too much of a burden to him.

 Finally, after another crazy attack by the Sky Monkey, Shadow caught its flaw. The speed of forming seals with his hands suddenly increased, and a spiritual technique more powerful than any before flew out of his hands and hit the monkey in the sky hard.

The Sky Monkey let out a shrill scream, and the flames on his body were extinguished instantly. It staggered and fell down, its eyes shining with unwillingness and fear. However, it no longer had the strength to stand up. Looking at the Sky Monkey lying on the ground, Ying breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the battle was finally over. Although the process was a bit difficult, the result was what he wanted.

He turned around and looked at Zhang Tao, only to see Zhang Tao standing not far away looking at him, with admiration and envy shining in his eyes. Ying smiled slightly, walked over and patted Zhang Tao on the shoulder: "Let's go."

 Zhang Tao nodded and followed Ying towards the wooden house. Although the battle was over, the curiosity in his heart did not disappear. He really wanted to know who the owner of this wooden house was, and how he was able to set up such a powerful spiritual array here to prevent spiritual beasts from attacking.

 When they walked to the wooden house, they found that the door was already open. A middle-aged man in white clothes was standing at the door looking at them, with a faint smile on his face: "Welcome to my home."

 Looking at the sudden appearance of the middle-aged man, both Ying and Zhang Tao were a little surprised. They did not expect that the owner of this wooden house would appear at this time, and it seemed that they did not look like they were affected by the battle.

“Who are you?” Ying asked, looking at the middle-aged man warily.

“I am the owner of this house.” The middle-aged man said with a smile, “You can call me Mr. Bai.”

"Mr. Bai?" Ying frowned, "We don't know you, why did you let us come here?"

Mr. Bai smiled slightly: "Because I know you will come."

"You knew we were coming?" Ying was even more confused, "How could you have known we were coming?"

Mr. Bai did not answer Ying's question directly, but turned and walked into the house: "Come in, I will tell you slowly."
