Chapter 521 Monster Collapse
Eleven and a half hours later.
The Taotie beast fell to the ground with wounds all over its body. Ye Xiaoman picked up one of the octopus legs and kicked its mountain-like body, and it rolled out like a dead object.
Ye Xiaoman rubbed her hands embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Brother Tao, it turns out I can really beat you."
The Taotie beast staggered to its feet from the ground, spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, and looked resentfully at Ye Xiaoman's face, which was smiling very humbly.
Damn it, it never smiled at her again.
As a reward for Ye Xiaoman's victory, all the cultivators except Yue Mushan and Jiaying were released.
The Taotie Beast spoke gloomily: "The second challenge is to trace the origin."
In the blood-red space, tens of thousands of mirrors rose from the sky to the ground. Ye Xiaoman looked around and saw countless pink octopuses looking at her from the mirrors. The space behind the mirrors was as deep as hell, like countless bizarre parallel spaces.
The mirror cracked, and the phantom in the fragments turned into ten, ten turned into a hundred, and a hundred turned into a thousand. It was no longer the image of an octopus, but a slice of all life experiences from that moment forward.
There is Ye Xiaoman as a toddler, there is Ye Xiaoman as a child catching frogs in the fields, there is Ye Xiaoman as a young girl participating in the Lantern Festival...
Ye Xiaoman was watching the movie of her life and was dazzled when she saw the Taotie beast transform into the size of a gecko and secretly eat a piece of glass.
For the tests given by the Taotie beast, choose the ones it is good at.
The so-called tracing back to the source means devouring space, traveling through time and space, and jumping to any life experience of the enemy.
The Taotie beast cannot deal with Ye Xiaoman now, but it can move back to the time when Ye Xiaoman was at her weakest and destroy her.
The dark figure of the Taotie beast peeled off from the wall of a small courtyard. When the black shadow was motionless, people thought it was a shadow on the wall. The black shadow climbed over the low wall. There was no one in the garden. There was a small wicker cradle under the shade of flowers. The nanny who was looking after it was attracted away by the noise made by the Taotie beast, leaving only the baby girl in the cradle sleeping soundly with her thumb in her mouth.
The terrifying monster stared at the baby girl's cute face, which was as cute as a petal, with hatred. Its two black-armored, curled hands inched closer to the baby girl's neck...
It can eat part of her soul and make her become stupid in the future.
"Hey, Brother Tao."
Ye Xiaoman's voice suddenly sounded behind it. The Taotie beast turned around in surprise and saw Ye Xiaoman sitting on a low wall, holding a small Taotie beast in her hand, which was its baby.
The Taotie beast was extremely shocked. Before it could figure out how Ye Xiaoman had the ability to travel through time and space, Ye Xiaoman tore the Taotie cub in her hand into two halves with an expressionless face.
The Taotie beast screamed and the space collapsed. In the second challenge, Ye Xiaoman won again.
The dark red space became even more dilapidated, with holes everywhere on the formation walls, and a sea of blood flowing back, covering the ground.
The Taotie Beast and Ye Xiaoman had temporarily used up all their magic power due to time travel, and fell exhausted on the water. Neither of them had the strength to get up and stab the other to finish them off.
It hurts so much, it’s so horrible! The agony of having its limbs torn apart was seared deep into the Taotie beast’s bones, becoming its lifelong nightmare.
The Taotie beast tilted its head, and dark liquid flowed down its lifeless eye sockets. It was an ancient ferocious beast famous throughout the world, but it was tortured by Ye Xiaoman and started to cry.
The pink octopus looked over kindly again.
The Taotie beast pointed at Ye Xiaoman fiercely and roared, "You win this time too. Let's call a truce first. No one of us is allowed to sneak attack anyone else!"
Ye Xiaoman looked at the Taotie beast's tears in surprise, and raised her tentacles with great effort and swore, "Don't worry, my sword will not kill the weak."
In order to show her sincerity in the truce, Ye Xiaoman also put away her life sword.
The Taotie beast relaxed its guard a little and began to gather its strength. As long as it recovered its strength before Ye Xiaoman, it would tear her into pieces. What a fool! She actually believed the enemy's lies...
The Taotie beast suddenly felt the whistling of a weapon breaking through the air behind it.
It had no time to dodge and turned its head with difficulty, just in time to see a dagger falling from a high altitude, piercing its back and shattering its cervical vertebrae.
It roared to the sky, accusing Ye Xiaoman: "You just said your sword doesn't kill the weak?"
The pink octopus stood up from the sea in a timid manner and said the second half of the sentence shyly, "But I still have a knife."
"Ah--" The Taotie beast roared in despair, rolling violently on the sea, smashing its spatial barrier. It had been so angry with Ye Xiaoman that it had lost its mind.
It only had one thought left, which was to drag Ye Xiaoman into hell even if they both died.
The independent space that imprisoned Ye Xiaoman and others disappeared, and everyone returned to the sea of blood.
The Taotie beast and the pink octopus each occupied a high mountain, separated by raging waves.
"Furnace God!"
The Taotie beast pointed at the magic weapon hanging high in the sky and roared. Its body expanded rapidly, almost approaching the sky to devour the moon. "I want to trade!"
In another space.
Zhu Chuideng and Jing Zhui are fighting fiercely with the other half of the Taotie beast.
In front of them, there are countless "Zhu Chuideng" and "Jing Zhui" surrounding them. Their power comes from the same source and their moves are consistent, just like looking in the mirror. As long as their attacks hit the phantoms, they will come back and hurt themselves, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
Zhu Chuideng suddenly stopped, and countless huge bloody palms that had just emerged from the sea of blood disappeared. "Something is wrong."
Jing Zhui also put away his overwhelming murderous intent.
They keenly sensed that the power of the Taotie beast was retreating, flowing into the next space.
It is gathering all its strength to deal with Ye Xiaoman.
Jing Zhui and Zhu Chuideng looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes that "something was wrong".
As the power of the Taotie beast declined, the barrier in this space became as fragile as paper. Zhu Chuideng and Jing Zhui reached out their hands at the same time and smashed the barrier. In a moment, the place was empty.
Above the sea of blood, the giant shadow cast by the Taotie beast enveloped the pitiful little body of the pink octopus.
It sharpened its fangs cruelly.
The magic weapon hanging high in the sky did not respond for a long time. It urged impatiently: "Furnace God!"
The incense burner finally answered.
【Owner. 】
【You have lost the qualification to trade with me. 】
"What!" The Taotie beast was shocked to find that the octopus it controlled had disappeared.
The sea of blood is still.
Time stopped here, and the movements of the monks watching the battle on the boat on the sea were frozen. The sea water dried up, the sky and the earth collapsed, all things died, meaning disappeared, and the only thing that existed in the world was eternal death.
Black water replaced the bloody water, gushing out from the dry, abyssal seabed.
Huge dark green vines rushed out from the black water, the roots of the plants spread across the entire sea surface, blood-red red spider lilies scrambled to bloom among the green branches, and ghostly energy was rampant.
The incense burner finished the last sentence mechanically.
【I do not trade with dead things.】
"Taotie, I've already played two boring games with you."
"How about I formulate the third challenge?"
The Taotie beast was trapped in a sea of flowers. Its huge body looked as small as an ant against the giant red spider lilies. It looked up in fear and followed the sound.
On the highest vine, shaded by red flowers, Ye Xiaoman in white sat on the Ghost Lord’s bone throne.
"Count to one hundred and see if I can chop off your head."
