Immortal Venerable of the Beast Race
Chapter 130 - 130 Trap 86_2

130: Trap 86_2 130: Trap 86_2 Shen Long’s Divine Sense spread out widely, but he didn’t detect anything amiss, so he followed along.

After walking for about a hundred steps, they reached the end and entered a cavern approximately an acre in size.

On the lower left part of the stone wall was a thick five-colored light screen, with runes on its surface flickering.

“This is it!”

Lin Guang pointed at the five-colored light screen and said, his eyes burning with eagerness.

“Quick battle, quick decision, let’s break the seal as fast as possible!

Don’t hold back.”

Ye Hong said, summoning five green-light flashing flying knives, attacking the five-colored light screen.

Shen Long and the other three each took action, with Lin Guang and the other two manipulating Magic Artifacts, while Shen Long released spells.

He raised both hands, and a series of giant fireballs three zhang in diameter flew out, crashing onto the five-colored light screen one after the other, engulfing the screen in rolling flames.

The booming sound was incessant, as various Spiritual Lights overwhelmed the five-colored light screen.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the seal was still not broken.

Ye Hong’s eyebrows furrowed as he said, “Increase the attack power, I refuse to believe that we can’t break this seal.”

With a pinch of a spell, the five green flying knives suddenly radiated with an intense glow, merging into a single giant green blade a zhang long, slashing onto the five-colored light screen, which shook slightly.

Shen Long’s brows furrowed tightly as he released the Hundred Eyes Cicada, his Divine Sense attaching to it.

The eyes of the Hundred Eyes Cicada shone with a burst of golden light, allowing Shen Long to clearly see that behind the five-colored light screen were five Foundation Establishment Cultivators, including Yang Qingshu.

“Not good, this is a trap, run quickly.”

Shen Long shouted, his feet shining with a brilliant green light as he ran toward the cave’s exit.

Just then, a piercing cry of a ghost sounded, and a large amount of black Yin Qi surged out from the stone wall, accompanied by the constant sounds of ghostly wails and wolf howls.

Shen Long’s vision blurred for a moment, and he found himself in a grey and dim space, seeing many ghostly shadows flickering in and out of sight.

He reacted quickly, slapping the Lihuo Amulet on his chest, which shone red, producing a thick red light screen that enveloped his entire body.

His Divine Sense remained attached to the Hundred Eyes Cicada, observing the surroundings.

Shen Long raised his right hand, and a giant fireball three zhang in diameter flew out, aimed at a certain void in the space.

A gust of Yin wind blew through, and a green-faced, fanged Fierce Ghost appeared, its eyes blood-red, its body covered in red hair, and its fingers pitch black and sharp as talons.

“Green-Faced Ghost!”

Shen Long recognized the origin of this Ghost Creature.

The Green-Faced Ghost in front of him had the Cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Stage, clearly raised by humans.

The Green-Faced Ghost opened its mouth and spat out a clump of black light, confronting the giant fireball.

The loud rumbling, the black light, and the giant fireball annihilated each other, causing flames to roll violently.

A green tornado stormed toward the Green-Faced Ghost, who was about to dodge when a sharp and piercing shriek rang out.

The Green-Faced Ghost felt as if its head were struck by something heavy, becoming dizzy, and by the time it regained its senses, the green tornado was already in front of it.

The strong airflow pushed it into the center of the tornado.

Dense green Wind Blades successively struck the Green-Faced Ghost, which emitted a mournful ghostly cry.

A green smoke rose from its body as it turned into a greenish-black pearl and fell to the ground.

“Wind Rolls the Remnants of Clouds, Great Perfection!

I did not expect Taoist Friend Shen not only to be proficient in Alchemy but also to possess such formidable Divine Skills.”

A voice, somewhat surprised, spoke up.

No sooner had the voice faded, Yang Qingshu appeared, his expression dark.

They had planned to let Ye Hong and the others deplete more Mana before making their move, but they hadn’t counted on Shen Long having a second-order Hundred Eyes Cicada, which forced them to change their plan.

“Yang Qingshu!

Is it you?

Have you been lying in ambush here all this time?”

Shen Long said with a frown, assessing the current situation, it seemed that Ye Hong and his companions were also victims; if they had been accomplices, they would have attacked Shen Long long ago.

Yang Qingshu set a trap to lure and kill Foundation Establishment Cultivators, but why didn’t they take action when Ye Hong’s group was breaking the formation, and waited for Shen Long to arrive instead?

Could it be that their initial target was Shen Long?

This was a trap specifically set against Shen Long.

“The dead don’t need to know too much.

If you have to blame something, blame your bad luck for coming here with them to break the seal.”

Yang Qingshu said coldly.

They set traps to lure and kill Foundation Establishment Cultivators, but no one who stands by the river can avoid getting wet.

They couldn’t keep doing this in the same place and usually switched locations after a few incidents.

They set up the Minor Five Elements Ban, not only because of its powerful defense but also because it required five Cultivators working together to break it.

Their group had five people, just enough for each to take on one Cultivator, with the treasures of the defeated enemy going to the victor.

Shen Long raised his right hand, and a giant fireball shot out, aiming for Yang Qingshu.

A surge of Yin Qi gushed out around Yang Qingshu, forming a black wall in front of him.

The giant fireball smashed into the black wall, both vanishing into nothingness as Yang Qingshu disappeared as well.

The eyes of the Hundred Eyes Cicada radiated blinding golden light, allowing Shen Long to clearly see a faint Spiritual Light in a corner that he would not have detected without the help of the Hundred Eyes Cicada.

Shen Long raised both hands, and two giant fireballs flew out one after another, directed at the corner.

From the ground emerged a giant skeleton over two zhang tall, wrapped in black Qi, its appearance resembling that of an ape.

It held a bone sword wreathed in black Qi in its right hand, and its eye sockets burned with green flames.

The giant skeleton’s lower jaw opened, releasing a beam of black light headed straight for Shen Long.

Shen Long raised his right hand, and a green wind wall appeared in front of him.

The black light hit the green wind wall, making a muffled sound, but the wind wall remained intact while the black light vanished.
