A monstrous corpse aura swept over, rushing towards me with an extremely violent impact force.
Faced with this huge force, I felt tremendous pressure for the first time, as if I was facing the end of the world.
Su Xiaoniu said methodically, "There's no need to fight him head-on. Burn a stack of yellow paper and sprinkle it around the golden coffin as you retreat. Use the Tianpeng Ruler to strike his skull three times. That's enough to put this King of Loulan, who has been a ghost for over three thousand years, to eternal sleep."
I nodded in understanding, taking my time, then retreated seven steps. At the same time, I pulled out a wad of yellow paper with my left hand and lit it with a lighter. I remembered Su Xiaoniu saying that once my cultivation reached a certain level, I could make the talisman paper spontaneously combust with a simple twist of a finger. But my foundation wasn't solid yet, so I couldn't do it!
So, I had to use a lighter to ignite the yellow paper, and then I scattered it around the golden coffin. At the same time, the King of Loulan floated up in the air, looking down at me on the platform. He released two faint green flames from his hands, swung them, and flung them towards me at a rapid speed.
I watched in amazement as the fireballs shot towards me like a shower of meteors, my heart pounding with fear. "Ya Ya's uncle, I've seen a lot of ghosts, but I've never seen a ghost like the Loulan King who can throw fireballs. Isn't that too willful?"
Although I was surprised, when the fireball shot down, I rolled on the ground, crawled to the other side of the golden coffin, and scattered the remaining yellow paper around the coffin.
Boom boom boom!
The fireballs hit the temple platform and did not burn as I imagined. Instead, they exploded into a ball of foul-smelling corpse gas. In an instant, the entire Ghost King Temple was filled with this disgusting corpse smell, and I was almost nauseated to death.
Fortunately, I have practiced the Golden Light Divine Mantra, which gave me some resistance to the corpse qi, but the effect was not obvious. I hurriedly took out the Sanqing Bell, and with a pleasant "clang" sound, the corpse qi that exploded and spread towards me was instantly blocked back. It was as if a wall appeared in my body, a wall specifically designed to resist the corpse qi!
With the sound of the bell, not only was the corpse qi blocked back, but Xuanxuan, who was unconscious due to the corpse qi penetrating deeply into her body, shuddered suddenly, and then stared at me with an extremely terrifying look, as if she was very afraid of me.
However, I didn't have time to care about Xuanxuan at the moment. The King of Loulan was slightly surprised to see that the corpse qi had no effect on me. He said with a hateful look, "I didn't expect you to have some skills. I admire you very much. How about becoming my guard? You can choose any of these coffins. I will give it to you as a reward!"
If you appreciate me, give me a coffin?
Shit! I glared at him and said, "You should keep that broken coffin for yourself. I don't need it!"
The King of Loulan was furious and shouted, "How dare you!" In a flash, he appeared on the statue behind the golden coffin. Looking down at me, he said, "Do you know what these ten coffins represent?"
There were indeed ten medium-sized coffins beside the golden coffin, five on the left and five on the right, tightly protecting the golden coffin. But how could I know what they meant? I just shook my head.
The King of Loulan laughed heartily and said, "You, a commoner, wouldn't know! Today, I will open your eyes. Inside these ten coffins are none other than my ten most beautiful concubines. They are all unprecedented and unparalleled Loulan beauties... If you will serve as my personal guard and fight alongside me on the battlefield, you can choose from any of my ten concubines. What do you think?"
Loulan beauties? I blinked, and then the madam suddenly came up from behind me and said jokingly, "Even if they were all beauties back then, thousands of years later, they've long since become nothing more than drooping bones. Even though men may be greedy for beauty, they shouldn't be so desperate, right? — Don't you agree, little brat?"
I was stunned by what she said. This brothel owner said that I couldn't say "no". I nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right! Although I like beautiful women, I think it's better to forget about the dead bones in the grave."
The King of Loulan laughed loudly, looking up to the sky: "Hahahahaha... Excellent! In that case, you can all die!"
Before he could finish his words, the Loulan King suddenly revealed a ferocious face. His features became extremely hideous, with giant teeth and fangs. His body also grew enormous, standing two or three meters tall. His pupils bulged crimson, and his eyeballs seemed to be about to fall out. It was extremely terrifying. He roared angrily and leaped down from the statue with great force, pressing down on me on the platform.
A massive black shadow loomed over me like an endless abyss, nearly scaring me to death. Damn it! If it were to crush me, I'd be crushed to pieces in a matter of minutes, leaving not even a bone. I immediately stepped back, "dengdengdeng," and just as the shadow was about to crush me, I suddenly leaned back two meters, narrowly avoiding its crushing weight.
Boom!
The King of Loulan landed heavily on the platform. Although the platform was very solid, I still heard a "crack" and a huge spider web appeared on the ground. I thought that if the King of Loulan pressed down on it again, the platform would definitely collapse.
I gasped, my mouth lighting up, ready to evacuate at any moment. I'd already scattered yellow paper around the golden coffin. Su Xiaoniu told me to find a chance to use the Tianpeng Ruler to poke the Loulan King's skull. But the Loulan King, though enormous, was incredibly agile, almost monkey-like. If I didn't completely restrain him, I couldn't get close to him. If I did, I'd be crushed to death.
When the King of Loulan stood up from the palace platform, I saw the brothel owner across from me, whipping her hand and ready to attack. Seeing the whip in her hand, I suddenly had an idea and shouted to her, "Brother, the stone statue mechanism!"
Even though I only said the words "statue mechanism," the brothel owner immediately understood what I meant. What a joke! When we were previously surrounded by a group of statues, it was the brothel owner who used a thick, long, strong leather rope to bind the mechanisms, preventing them from moving. Only then did I have the opportunity to attack the statues' weaknesses, thus paralyzing them.
