Chapter 181 Taboo, Horn of the Styx
Li Yelai looked at the hand bone with mixed feelings.
Unexpectedly, the skeleton of a human hero would see the light of day again under such circumstances.
The hand bone was as white as jade, exuding a dignified sense of oppression.
It was the hand bone of the Vast Supreme, and even after decades, it still contained a great power.
The bad news was that there was only one hand bone, and it was impossible for Li Yelai to bury the Vast Supreme intact.
The good news was that there was only one hand bone. Otherwise, Li Yelai and the Little King of Madness would have to face a more terrifying enemy.
Li Yelai stared at the white jade hand bones spliced together by the monster. Even under the double pupils, the weak black lines on the hand bones were very ethereal and illusory. After all, it came from the Supreme, and even if it became white bones, it had few weaknesses.
"Don't try to fight in close combat. Although he has sacrificed for many years, as a supreme being, no matter what path he takes, the strength of even just one hand bone cannot be underestimated. Not to mention, there are still spiritual reverberations. He will be crushed in close combat." Little Mad King walked out from the shadow behind Li Yelai: "Moreover, I feel that the hand bones seem to contain mysterious substances."
"In other words, from the worst perspective, the hand bones can still exert some abilities? What path is the Vast Supreme?" Li Yelai asked.
If it is the path of whispering or spiritual eyes, the hand bones alone should not be able to release any abilities, right?
"Zero path. But in fact, at the level of the supreme being, it is also very scary not to use abilities."
As Little Mad King's voice fell, the monster had already taken action.
The horse's hooves stepped on the ground, and it instantly ran more than ten meters high, stepping on the outer wall of the ruins next to it. The ground and the outer wall cracked instantly under one step.
The monster relied on the wall of the ruins to quickly eject in the air like a billiard ball. It approached Li Yelai and Little Mad King at a very fast speed.
"It seems that it did not inherit the psychic skills of the Vast Supreme!" Li Yelai breathed a sigh of relief, which was undoubtedly a good thing.
It is said that the Supreme Power can strangle the enemy with psychic skills without using abilities.
Then, Li Yelai continued to step back in the air to keep a distance from the monster.
Little Mad King did not attack again, but simply took a step back and escaped into the shadow of the ruins.
This made the monster lock its target on Li Yelai, and it stepped on its four hooves, using the ruined buildings around it as a fulcrum to chase Li Yelai again and again.
However, the horse body of the monster's lower body was the remains of a certain extraordinary creature. Its own strength was not high. With pure physical strength alone, it could not catch up with Li Yelai at all. If it was the horse body of the Thunder Dragon Colt, perhaps Li Yelai would have to ride on the Sky Comet Kirin.
This is also one of the reasons why it craves more remains of living creatures.
It instinctively wanted to hunt more lives and sew their limbs to itself. And the human in front of it was one of the materials that could be tried.
So, the next second, the monster came to the side of the road, and the supreme hand bone in its left hand turned into a hand knife, just like a hot knife cutting butter, and directly cut off a street lamp. There was still hot molten steel dripping at the incision.
The monster's ghost-faced giant ape right arm grabbed the street lamp and threw it directly at Li Yelai in the distance. The street lamp shot out like an arrow, whistling in the air.
"If I can't catch up, I'll play long-range. It seems that there is no other long-range attack method." Li Yelai thought, and stepped sideways to flash past the street lamp.
At the same time, the Spear of Gulan Sanx appeared again in the Dragon Claw Void Realm, and the red thunder illuminated the ruins.
Li Yelai aimed at the monster's head and threw the thunder spear quickly!
Compared with the street lamp thrown by the monster, Li Yelai's thunder spear was faster and stronger!
Like a real thunderbolt, it struck straight away.
However, just when the lightning spear approached the monster five meters away, it was ignited instantly.
The black flame instantly covered the entire lightning spear and burned it completely in an instant.
This black flame can actually ignite thunder?
Is this the remaining power of the Supreme Hand Bone?
"The Seventh Awakening Ability of the Zero Path, the Black Prison Flame Prison." The Little King of Madness reminded: "Fortunately, it is not the Eighth Awakening Ability, and its attack range is greatly reduced."
The Seventh Awakening Ability?
Li Yelai was scared in his heart. Fortunately, he did not try to fight in close combat. Otherwise, if he got close, he would not even leave his ashes under this ability.
But after the shock, Li Yelai smiled.
The people of the Red Dart Chamber of Commerce in the distance raised their heads in horror and looked at the sky.
The originally clear sky was now filled with black clouds.
The lightning spear did not attack and hit the enemy, but was directly destroyed halfway.
This made Li Yelai break the oath he made.
So, the price of breaking the agreement came.
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, and thunderclouds covered the abandoned city.
The monster was startled by the thunderclouds, and its bear head raised to look at the sky. The astonishing scene was reflected in its gray eyes.
Under the black clouds, Li Yelai towered over the ruins, with endless thunderclouds behind him, as if he was the master of the sky.
Activate the third awakening ability, Mimicry·Abyssal Dragon Scale!
The dark dragon scales are added to the body.
This made Li Yelai's figure more oppressive and domineering, like the god of thunder.
"Then, let's compete. This opportunity is rare."
Li Yelai's voice sounded with thunder.
The thick lightning struck Li Yelai, but the red thunder dragon claw was raised, and the terrifying thunder wrapped around the dragon claw. And turned into a larger red thunder spear.
The raised red thunder dragon claw slammed down, and in an instant, the sky was full of thunder!
The monster that felt the danger suddenly raised the supreme hand bone, and the dark strange flame turned into a barrier, and the thunder that struck was instantly ignited by it.
However, the thunder in the sky is endless, and the thundercloud will not disappear before it hits it!
Gulan Shanks is an ancient thunder dragon among ancient dragons, and has the power to control thunder.
Now, in the environment of thunder and lightning, Li Yelai's ammunition is inexhaustible!
Turn the thunder into your own use!
Compared with consumption, then consume it for me!
At that moment, the violent thunder raged between heaven and earth like a giant dragon, and its might was shocking. The thunder rolled, announcing the power and pressure of the natural disaster, echoing above the ruins, making every inch of land seem to tremble.
Every time the thunder spear was thrown, the ground trembled and the rubble flew.
The monster was completely submerged by the thunder, and the dark flames burned wildly, but it still couldn't resist the raging thunder!
But the monster's pieced-together body was already exhausted. Its spiritual energy could no longer activate the Supreme Hand Bone.
The eleventh thunder spear fell, and the black flame did not appear. The thunder spear directly hit the monster's body. The six-meter-long super-large dragon thunder spear directly penetrated the monster's body and pierced into the ground with unstoppable force!
"Boom!"
After the huge thunder, the black clouds in the sky dissipated.
Li Yelai, who stayed in the air, also fell to the ground.
Although the Red Thunder Dragon Claw absorbs the thunder and turns it into its own use, Li Yelai himself will also be hit by the thunder. Although the power is greatly reduced, it also causes some damage to the Yuanlong scales on his body.
Li Yelai looked at the position where he attacked, and the huge dragon thunder directly hit a large pit more than ten meters wide on the ground.
As the smoke and dust dissipated with the wind, Li Yelai also saw the fate of the monster.
Its body was completely disintegrated, and all the pieces were scattered.
At this moment, it was lying in pieces at the bottom of the pit, which was charred and even liquefied.
But the Supreme's hand bones were still intact.
After all, it was the remains of the Supreme, and it was not so easy to destroy.
Li Yelai jumped down the pit and picked up the Supreme's hand bones.
The hand bones were as white as jade and felt cold, as if they were not affected by the previous thunder.
"How about we erect a monument here?" Li Yelai asked, "After all, he died for this city."
Li Yelai wanted to bury the Supreme Vastness, and this city where he fought might be the best place.
"No, it's not safe in the wilderness. No one can guarantee whether it will be discovered and taken away by others. After all, the remains of the Supreme are very precious." The voice of the Little Mad King came from the side. She was still elusive and came to the side at some point.
She looked at the Supreme's hand bones for a while and sighed softly. It seemed that she was regretting the sacrifice of the Supreme Vastness.
"You take it with you first. After the mission is over, you will personally send the remains of the Supreme Vastness to the Lava Mining City, where his descendants are. That is his best and safest place." The Little Mad King said, "You freed him and prevented his remains from being used by the weird. You deserve this honor."
Lava Mining City?
After thinking about it, Li Yelai nodded slightly: "Okay, after the mission is over, we will take a detour to the lava mine city."
Then, Li Yelai and the little mad king checked the remains of the monster in the deep pit.
Until now, they didn't know who the enemy was. What kind of existence could piece together corpses to fight.
Soon, the two saw a black jade horn under the deep pit.
The horn was only the size of a palm, and the material was like black jade, but it was not damaged at all under the attack of Li Yelai's giant lightning spear.
At this moment, it was pinching a broken vertebra.
The two looked at each other and understood that this thing must be a taboo!
"Is this the culprit of this incident? Piecing together the corpse monster is the reason why it lost control?" Li Yelai asked.
"It is very likely." The little mad king picked up the black jade horn and observed it. It was found that there was a mysterious text engraved inside the black jade horn.
After carefully examining it, the Little Mad King said solemnly: "The Styx Horn that awakens the dead"
"Awaken the dead?" Li Yelai was stunned. He didn't expect that this taboo could actually get rid of the cycle of life and death?
Li Yelai thought of his mother and his fallen comrades. If he used this horn, could he see them again?
Li Yelai was somewhat tempted.
The Little Mad King shook his head and said: "It is impossible to violate life and death. This taboo may have the effect of controlling corpses."
"Is that so?" Li Yelai sighed in his heart. Controlling corpses is not a rare thing for psychics.
The corpse control of the Divine Control Path and the corpse language of the Whispering Path are both abilities that can control corpses. The corpse itself has no self-awareness.
"I don't know what the price is." Li Yelai thought.
"Take it away first, and then bring it back to the giant city for inspection." The Little King of Madness suggested.
Li Yelai nodded.
Then, the two returned to the ground, and after meeting up with the Red Dart Chamber of Commerce, everyone began to clean up the battlefield, and the human corpses were buried together.
The corpses of the beasts were cremated, and the remains of the extraordinary creatures were left to the Red Dart Chamber of Commerce for processing. After all, the bones of some extraordinary creatures can still be sold for some price.
However, during the sorting, the people of the Red Dart Chamber of Commerce found the logo of another caravan in a pile of dismembered human corpses.
Later, on the opposite bank of the river, they saw the camp and vehicles of the caravan.
Judging from the traces in the camp, it seems that when the caravan was resting, it suddenly encountered some kind of fighting.
And more importantly, the people of the Red Dart Chamber of Commerce found the bills and logs of the caravan in that camp!
Although, who would write a diary if they were serious?
But for a large caravan, a diary is indispensable. The diary will record the trade routes they opened up and the encounters on the road, so that they can summarize it later.
So, the little mad king checked the caravan log.
And learned that this caravan was from the Gaoshan Chamber of Commerce in Kunlun Giant City.
They set out from Kunlun Giant City and passed through several giant cities along the way, filling up their pots.
They were very ambitious and planned to open up a new trade route, so they formed a team and headed all the way to the Lava Mining City.
As a result, they encountered misfortune here. It's really sad. They were only one day away from being safe.
And the log also recorded the strange events they encountered.
'On February 19, someone woke up again. Obviously, we all watched him die. But he suddenly woke up and continued to eat and chat as if nothing had happened. Then, he turned into ashes. ’
‘On February 23, there was indeed something wrong with this area. The tiger we hunted had its heart broken. But it suddenly bit off the cook’s arm. Then, it turned to ashes. ’
‘On March 1, we may have mastered life and death. We found the reason for these strange phenomena. That horn! As long as the horn is blown, the nearby corpses will come back to life. As long as the corpse is well preserved, they can act normally, but after a period of time, they will turn to ashes. This horn came from a tomb robber. There may be good things in the tomb at the bottom of the lake. After returning, we will arrange for people to dig up the ancient tomb. ’
‘On March 4, the psychic who managed and used this horn went crazy. He cut off the arm of another companion and connected it to his own body. We killed him and suffered heavy losses. ’
‘On March 6, the new manager also went crazy. He killed several companions at night and dismembered their bodies. He even cut off his own body and connected it. We killed him. And locked the horn in the box. ’
‘On March 10, the box was broken. My brother broke the box like crazy and used the horn again. This time, he ordered the corpse to attack us. He wanted to get our limbs like crazy. He was crazy! I killed him with my own hands! ’
‘On March 11, the horn had a power that attracted others to blow it. It was tempting people to take other people's limbs and put them on themselves. We were scared and buried the horn in the wilderness. I knew someone would want to dig it out, so I killed the person who buried it. ’
‘On March 13, it caught up. Why would a giant ape dig it out? We have to run! Go to the nearest giant city as soon as possible! ’
‘On March 14, it’s over. The giant ape seems to be targeting us. It has become very scary. It has killed many beasts and monsters and turned into a bigger monster. I hope we can't make it in time.’
Then, the log stopped abruptly.
This is the price of taboos!
It will deceive creatures into blowing it, and the creatures that blow it will have a strong urge to sew the limbs of other creatures onto their own bodies!
