Chapter 283: Chapter 248: Where Are the Troops of the Ninth Mountain? (5k+ Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2

But the spread of the dark light was extremely rapid, and soon whoosh after whoosh piercing through the air, as a series of Fierce, fine-scaled winged black snakes burst out. With a flap of their wings and a gaping howl, they moved as fast as lightning.

They fiercely caught up with the streaks of light, opening their massive maws wide, swallowing the figures one by one.

The desperate screams echoed through the air.

Only one streak of light seemed to have activated some kind of magical artifact, narrowly escaping from the gaping maw of the bizarre snake, its speed suddenly surged, rushing towards a certain spot.

From there came a desperate cry, "Damn it, what are you doing."

Hidden figures in the distance rapidly retreated.

At this moment, high in the sky, the weather changed as a pair of blood-red giant eyes emerged from the rolling dark clouds, sweeping over the distant forests with a cold and sinister blood-red glow, "Thought it was that damn Colonel, but it’s just you crawlers, kill them all!"

As the voice fell, piercing shrieks arose from the Black Nest trees in the distance, and a large swath of dark shadows rushed out. Among the streaks of light that had entered Weiyuan Pass, apart from those drawing guns, some flew towards the ruins in the center of the city. Seeing this scene, they panicked and scattered in retreat.

The Demon Eye in the sky swelled, commanding the rolling Demon Cloud to chase and kill.

In a short while, the place went from noisy back to tranquil.

After a while, two ethereal figures appeared near the Three-pointed Two-blade Spear, simultaneously reaching for the Big Spear.

Two massive palms, one dark as ink and one shining like white jade, around thirty feet in size.

The black palm transformed into a claw, striking fiercely at the white jade palm, which fought back strongly, rolling up a white frosty air, freezing the void with chill.

With a clash of claw against palm, the void detonated, followed by the crackling of ice breaking.

The white jade large palm was repelled, and the black claw took the opportunity to grasp the Big Spear.

But just as the black claw touched the body of the spear, the next second, a burst of multicolored electric arcs surged on the spear, striking the dark great palm and sending it recoiling with a sizzling sound.

A muffled grunt followed by a voice full of malice, "A mere inanimate object dares to challenge my authority."

As the voice fell, chains of black qi shot out from the dark great palm, with a series of rapid explosive sounds scattering the lightning from the spear.

Subsequently, the dark palm finally clinched the long spear!

At this moment, two ethereal figures stood in the void; one was the master of the black claw, a Straw-Coated Wanderer wearing a bamboo hat, and the other was surrounded by dancing lotuses and misty fairy light, with the silhouette of a woman.

"Didn’t expect the Fairy from Cold Horse Cave Heaven to also try her luck?"

"Just not sure who it might be?"

The voice of the Straw-Coated Wanderer sounded a bit strange and piercing, as if altered by a voice changer, elusive and mysterious.

The fairy-like woman’s silhouette was misty and illusory, her voice calm without ripples, like the sound of wind chimes, "Who are you, sir, to know of my origins?"

"Hehe, we’ve crossed paths before, enough said. I presume the Fairy is here for the Luck Spirit Root. If I’m not mistaken, that small tree is such a Heavenly Treasure. You must’ve heard what the Great Demon said earlier, they haven’t yet found the body of the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, or perhaps he isn’t dead."

This Straw-Coated Wanderer possessed a peculiar accent, eerie and unpleasant to listen to, "That Great Demon was conveniently lured away by those fools, we must hurry."

The Lotus Woman’s face was unclear, but her eyes sparkled like stars in the night,

"Do you intend to claim this spear for yourself?"

Her voice sounded somewhat frowning.

"Didn’t the Fairy also intend to do the same just now? The rules of the Worldly Society decree, whoever takes it first, it’s theirs," the Straw-Coated Wanderer laughed weirdly.

Yet the Lotus Woman spoke lightly, "After all, this is a meritorious weapon left by the Colonel, wouldn’t it be better for Cold Horse Cave Heaven to hand it over to the Government Administrative Office to inspire the spirit of Shu?"

The Straw-Coated Wanderer seemed to find this funny, chuckling, "Why beat around the bush, Fairy? If that was really your intention, you wouldn’t be here with me; instead, you would be on the battlefield with those passionate and headstrong people!"

The odd laugh of the Straw-Coated Wanderer was quite blunt.

However, the woman from Cold Horse Cave Heaven seemed offended, the Qi mechanism around her in the void fluctuating fiercely, ready to make a move.

But then, she calmed down, swept her sleeves, and disappeared with a flash towards the underground, vanishing without a trace.

Seeing the woman act so swiftly, the Straw-Coated Wanderer chuckled coldly, his gaze turning gloomy as he looked towards the long spear, sensing the pain in his hand, he fiercely lifted, but the spear barely moved.

His blurred face twisted, his throat rumbled, emitting a beast-like roar, the dark qi on his palm surged rapidly, enveloping the entire spear, then the dark qi violently rolled, trying to restore the spear to normal size, but the spear resisted, buzzing and throbbing.

"What a persistent Ninth Mountain’s Colonel."

"Even a Taoist Soldier is this troublesome."

"I hope you’re still alive, waiting for me to find you."

This sinister-smiling Straw-Coated Wanderer spoke.

Then, with his other hand, he slapped the spear, dispersing its hum, then pulled out a weird, fierce-looking green worm, about half a foot long, from between his brows.

This was a Consciousness Worm, one of the Three Corpse Worms, capable of devouring the Primordial Spirit Qi Mechanism, finding the corresponding person.

If the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel isn’t dead, I can use this spear to find him. Thinking this, he placed the worm on the spear, and suddenly the worm burst into a green qi, devouring a phantom golden light, and then, the green qi condensed, and two pairs of thin, wing-like appendages emerged on the worm’s back, buzzing as they fluttered, circling around several times.
