Chapter 304 Demon
Chapter 304 Demon
The portraits on the wall seemed to be shaking slightly, and those strange eyes seemed to be watching Chen Yile's every move.
"Another one comes to die."
Chen Yile frowned.
"You bastard, today is your end."
The ghost suddenly roared, and many tiger shadows appeared on the surrounding walls.
These tiger shadows pounced on Chen Yile with bared fangs and claws.
Chen Yile quickly brandished the Tianshi Sword, and streams of sword energy shattered the tiger's shadow.
But the tiger shadows kept appearing, making Chen Yile a little overwhelmed.
"Thunder magic, destroy evil!"
Chen Yile shouted loudly, and lightning flashed on the Tianshi sword in his hand.
He swung his sword with force, and a powerful force of lightning struck the ghost.
The ghost dodged quickly, but the lightning still hit its body.
It let out a cry of pain and black smoke came out of its body.
However, the evil spirit did not give up.
It roared again, and the ground around it began to shake. Huge tiger claws stretched out from the ground and grabbed Chen Yile.
Chen Yile leaped up and avoided the attack of the tiger's claws.
He waved the Tianshi Sword in the air, and a huge sword energy slashed towards the ghost.
The ghost was hit by the sword energy and fell to the ground.
But it quickly stood up again, with an even more evil aura.
Chen Yile knew that he couldn't give the evildoers any more chances.
He concentrated his energy, muttered something, and the lightning on the Tianshi Sword in his hand became stronger and stronger.
"Thunder magic, destroy the soul!"
Chen Yile shouted loudly, and the lightning on the Tianshi Sword in his hand turned into a huge lightning bolt, directly hitting the ghost.
The ghost struggled for a few times in the lightning and finally turned into a ball of black smoke.
Chen Yile continued forward and came to a hall.
The walls of the hall were covered with strange portraits, and the ground was also covered with strange symbols.
There was a strange atmosphere in the hall.
The characters in the portraits seemed to be telling ancient and terrifying stories.
The symbols on the ground flickered with a faint light, like the eyes of a devil spying on everything.
In the center of the hall stood an evil spirit.
This evil creature has a playing card stuck on its forehead. It is a painted-skin ghost that can disguise itself as anyone, making it difficult to distinguish.
"Master, why are you so persistent? Why not lay down your weapons and share the glory and wealth of this world with me?"
"Painted Skin Ghost, your charms are useless to me. Today, I will destroy you."
The Painted Skin Ghost's expression changed. "Since you don't want to drink the wine, don't blame me for being rude."
The Painted Skin Ghost suddenly turned into Chen Yile's appearance, holding the Tianshi Sword in his hand.
There were two Chen Yile standing in the hall, making it difficult to distinguish them.
"Huh, what a small skill."
Chen Yile snorted coldly, swung the Tianshi Sword in his hand, and a sword energy slashed towards the Painted Skin Ghost.
The Painted Skin Ghost also waved the Heavenly Master Sword to block Chen Yile's attack.
Its swordsmanship is exactly the same as Chen Yile's, making it difficult to tell the real from the fake.
Chen Yile closed his eyes and carefully felt the atmosphere around him.
He found that the Painted Skin Ghost's aura was different from his own. Although they were very similar, there were still some subtle differences.
Chen Yile opened his eyes, and lightning flashed on the Tianshi sword in his hand.
He swung his hand vigorously, and a powerful force of lightning struck the Painted Skin Ghost.
The Painted Skin Ghost dodged quickly, but the lightning still hit its body.
It let out a cry of pain and black smoke came out of its body.
The Painted Skin Ghost was unwilling to accept defeat, so he transformed himself into someone else again and tried to confuse Chen Yile.
But Chen Yile had seen through its tricks and was no longer fooled by it.
"Thunder magic, destroy evil!"
Chen Yile shouted loudly, and lightning flashed on the Tianshi sword in his hand.
He swung his hand vigorously, and a powerful force of lightning struck the Painted Skin Ghost.
The Painted Skin Ghost struggled for a few times in the thunder and lightning, and finally turned into a ball of black smoke.
Chen Yile continued to move forward and encountered many evil spirits along the way.
Some of these evil spirits are wandering ghosts, some are evil spirits, and some are monsters. Their strengths vary, but they are all very evil.
From time to time, eerie cries and strange laughter could be heard in the passage, keeping people's nerves tense.
The shadows on the wall seemed to be wriggling, as if something would burst out from them at any moment.
Relying on his profound cultivation and powerful Taoism, Chen Yile defeated these evil spirits time and time again.
But he also consumed a lot of physical strength and magic power, and suffered some injuries.
He had just stepped into a seemingly ordinary passage when he suddenly heard a slight sound of machinery running.
Chen Yile became alert. He stopped and looked around carefully.
There were only some seemingly disorderly stone slabs on the ground, but one could vaguely sense the danger contained in them.
He gently waved the Tianshi Sword in his hand, and a faint sword energy swept across the ground.
It was found that there were slight fluctuations in the air flow around some of the stone slabs.
He realized that this might be a pressure-sensing mechanism, and if he stepped on it accidentally, it might trigger danger.
So he began to move forward carefully, using the wall next to him for leverage.
He used his light body skills and lightly kicked the wall with his foot.
The whole person jumped over the dangerous stone area like an agile swallow.
Then he came to a hall.
There is a huge circular platform in the center of the hall, surrounded by several huge stone pillars.
The stone pillars were engraved with strange patterns, and there were some grooves on the platform, as if specific things had to be put in to release the mechanism.
Chen Yile walked closer to the platform and carefully examined the grooves and patterns on the stone pillars.
He discovered that the patterns seemed to be telling an ancient puzzle related to the ancient Chinese theory of the five elements.
He recalled the knowledge about the mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements that he had read in the ancient books of his master.
He noticed that one of the stone pillars was engraved with a pattern of burning flames, and a groove next to it was shaped like a flame.
He thought for a moment and took out a fire-attributed spirit crystal from his Qiankun bag.
He had accidentally found this spirit crystal in a spirit vein before and had always carried it with him.
He placed the spirit crystal into the groove, and instantly, a ray of fire shot out from the groove and connected to the flame pattern on the stone pillar.
However, this is only the first step.
Next, he saw that there was a water ripple pattern on the stone pillar connected to the flame pattern, and the corresponding groove was a flowing shape.
He looked around and found a small pond not far away with some spiritual water in it.
He used his magic power to condense a water ball and carefully moved it into the groove.
As soon as the water ball fell into the groove, it turned into a blue light, interweaving with the light of the flame.
As the five elements were placed one by one, when the last spiritual object representing earth was placed into the groove, the entire platform emitted a dazzling light and the mechanism was released.
As he moved forward, he encountered a maze-like mechanism.
