Chapter 158 We Meet Again
Lan Xi does not have any heroic ideas, nor does he overestimate his own abilities.
Now she is just fighting for her comfortable life in the future!
If there was a chance to succeed, she would help.
If Hanba is too strong, she won't fight him head-on.
As Lan Xi returned to the island mountain, she quickly determined the approximate location of the drought demon.
Feeling the aura emitted by Hanba, Lan Xi guessed correctly that Hanba was indeed in a weak period!
Lan Xi didn’t know how powerful Hanba was in its heyday, but now, its remaining strength should not be much stronger than the previous few evil spirits she controlled.
And at this moment on the island, Lan Xi is not the only one who wants to suppress the drought demon.
Not far away, Lan Xi saw Guan Yan, the president of the Monks Association, leading several stronger monks, rushing into a crack on the island!
On the other side, three evil cultivators from different forces also found a crack in the mountains on the island and went in to find the whereabouts of Hanba.
Lan Xi did not rush forward. There were so many cultivators in front of her suppressing the power of Hanba together, so she waited and saw what would happen.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lan Xi saw some young monks successfully descending the mountain.
She also saw Guan Hui.
Just as she had predicted, Guan Hui only suffered some minor injuries and was not seriously injured.
Guan Hui and several young monks had just come down the mountain when the entire island began to shake violently!
The mountain collapsed rapidly and slid down in pieces.
During the collapse of the island, several cultivators and seven or eight evil cultivators rushed out from the gaps between the collapsed island soil blocks!
More than ten people were covered in dust and looked disheveled.
But being able to get out of there is already a double blessing of their strength and luck!
Among more than ten people, Lan Xi met Guan Yan, the president of the Monks Association.
At this moment, Chairman Guan Yan no longer had the energy and spirit he once had. He looked old and withered from the inside out...
Even though Lan Xi was quite far away, it was not difficult for her to see that the president of the monks' association had used a large amount of spiritual power in his body.
As a result, the method he used to prolong his life with spiritual power was broken. Next, his body will quickly deteriorate, and he will definitely die in three days at most!
In addition to more than ten righteous and evil cultivators, after half of the island collapsed, a wooden coffin made of black and green sunken wood was revealed among the rocks and soil.
Lan Xi could tell at a glance that this water-sunken wood was extraordinary!
It turned out to be a thousand-year-old water-sunken wood——
Generally, wood that sinks into water will gradually become rotten and decayed under the immersion and erosion of water over a period of several years or even more than ten years.
There are very few pieces of wood that can survive in water for hundreds of years and still be fished out and used as lumber.
Not to mention the sunken wood that has been soaked in water for thousands of years!
This kind of wood has absorbed the coolness of water for thousands of years and is no longer an ordinary wood. It has a natural restraint against things that are exposed to the scorching sun.
That’s why it can be used as a coffin to hold the body of the drought demon and lock the drought demon inside!
Even though the wooden coffin has been buried underground for many years, you can still vaguely see the intricate patterns carved on it.
When Lan Xi glanced over it, he almost instinctively memorized the pattern.
Then she watched intently as the coffin lid slowly slid aside...
All around, the evil cultivators had greedy expressions on their faces, while the righteous cultivators had despair in their eyes.
Chairman Guan Yan had previously thrown out many magical weapons to prevent the coffin from coming out, but he could not stop the drought demon from coming out of the coffin after waking up!
Seeing that Hanba was about to come out of the coffin, Lan Xi was trying her best to do something, but the next second, she felt that the copper box hidden in her small cloth bag was shaking!
This is the reaction of the 'evil spirit cat' coming out!
Lan Xi naturally couldn't let the 'evil demon cat' appear at this time.
When a cat steps on a coffin, the corpse rises and sucks blood from people, bringing disaster to all directions.
After all, Hanba is also a kind of zombie.
Once the aura of the 'evil demon cat' collides with the aura of the drought demon in the coffin, it will only make the drought demon more ferocious!
So Lan Xi pasted a suppressing talisman on the copper box containing the "evil spirit cat" without hesitation.
Prevent the black cat from breaking through the copper box and appearing outside.
Although Lan Xi had tried his best to suppress the 'evil spirit cat' and prevent its breath from colliding with Hanba, a trace of breath still leaked out and was noticed by Hanba.
Almost in an instant, Lan Xi felt a stream of negative energy coming towards him!
At the same time, she even felt like she was being watched by some powerful evil being—
She was the only one who could sense this feeling!
Fortunately, Lan Xi is not an ordinary cultivator, so even if the evil energy attacks her, it cannot hurt her body at all.
Instead, the negative energy was quickly dissipated by her.
"Huh?"
She didn’t know if it was Lan Xi’s illusion, but at this moment, she heard a surprised voice in her ears.
Lan Xi frowned.
She had a premonition that the sound must be related to the drought demon who was about to come out of the coffin!
Could it be that Hanba has gradually developed intelligence while being sealed?
Lan Xi had only heard that thousand-year-old zombies could develop intelligence, but they could not change their bloodthirsty and murderous instincts.
The drought demon is more powerful than a thousand-year-old zombie. If it really develops intelligence, it is actually not impossible.
But will Hanba's instincts be suppressed by its intelligence?
Moreover, the drought demon has been sealed for who knows how many years. Once it comes out, no one knows what it will do!
Just when Lan Xi was on guard, the lid of the coffin made of thousand-year-old water-sunken wood was suddenly kicked open by something inside.
Then, a slender wheat-colored arm stretched out from the coffin.
Holding the coffin's mouth with his arms, the Hanba inside gently stood up...
The next second, a naked woman with long red hair slowly sat up from the coffin.
The woman had a pair of red eyes, and she stared straight in one direction -
Even though Lan Xi was currently in a place covered by fallen trees, she could still clearly feel the drought demon staring at her!
Fortunately, this gaze did not last long, and the woman looked up at the sky.
"The sun... meets us again."
The woman seemed to have not spoken for a long time, and her voice was scratchy and unpleasant.
As she spoke, the moisture in the grass and trees mixed in with the rocks and soil of the collapsed islands around her was completely dried out and cracked into grass residue and wood chips.
The water level around the island also dropped, and soon the sand under the pier was exposed.
The monks and evil cultivators around were dry all over, dehydrated, and had cracked mouths. It seemed that it would not be long before they would turn into mummies.
Only then did those evil cultivators realize that something was wrong!
"Doesn't the map say that the treasure buried under this island is a treasure buried by evil cultivators?!"
"How could this happen?! What the hell is this?!"
"Hanba! She has the power of Hanba!"
"Is this... a real drought demon, or a demonic creature created by a powerful evil cultivator?!"
