Chapter 306 Not turning into bones

'Solve it?'

Gu Chen looked at the balls of fire and smoke, his spiritual platform gave a warning, and he rolled over in a hurry.

The next second, a big foot poked out from the fireworks and stomped down with a bang. The bloated ghost had lost most of its body, with most of its bones exposed in its abdomen and chest, and the faint smell of meat mixed with the streaks of bone.

In addition to the severed arm, one of his legs was mostly burned by the flames. His neck was still connected to his head, with only a little blood and skin. His head was limp and swaying at an angle. In his larynx, there was a bone that shone particularly brightly white.

But even in such a miserable state, the bloated ghost could stand and walk without any problem, and chased Gu Chen up and down with just his skeleton without flesh and blood.

Yan Jing looked at the exposed white skeleton and spat, "What a rare species! How come there is an unmelted bone hidden inside this bloated ghost?"

A bloating ghost is a bloating ghost, and an incorruptible bone is an incorruptible bone. The two are different monsters. The bloating ghost has a huge body, and the incorruptible bones have hard bones, and they coexist with each other.

The true fire just now broke the bloated ghost's body. If it weren't for the help of the indissoluble bones, not even most of the flesh and bones would be left.

"Cut off the seventh bone in the neck!"

Yan Jing shouted loudly, but he was not pointing at the white joint in the larynx, but the third joint below it.

"Yangming's golden rope binds the evil spirits."

As he shouted, he took out a golden rope from his arms and swung it lightly. The rope flew straight towards the bloated ghost, moving like a long snake. Unfortunately, the rope was not endless, and the bloated ghost was too huge. The golden rope only tied its two feet before quickly entangled and formed a knot to bind the ghost.

Although the golden rope was small, it could withstand a great force. The bloated ghost had his hands and feet bound by the thin rope and could not break free for a while. As the golden rope slowly tightened, his legs gradually closed together and his body staggered.

Yan Jing also staggered, his eyes widened, veins bulged on his forehead, and he exhaled a breath of green air which fell on the golden rope, causing the golden rope to shrink even faster.

On the other side, Gu Chen heard the shout, jumped up straight, and used the bloated ghost's body to gain leverage and reached his neck.

He glanced at the bloated ghost's crooked head. Now the bloated ghost's eyes were closed, and his body was completely taken over by incorruptible bones. As time passed, countless bones formed, merged, and proliferated, and were about to turn into a huge bone giant.

'One, two, three... seven!'

Gu Chen swung the knife and chopped at the ordinary joint. This action made the hidden bone unable to sit still. The ordinary joint suddenly cracked, grew a big mouth, and bit the long knife. In the gap, one could see circles of bone spurs, fangs, and sharp teeth, densely packed.

The long sword was originally an ordinary object, and could not withstand such a bite. Its mouth closed and iron filings flew everywhere.

The hilt of the knife slipped out of his hand, and Gu Chen reached behind him and found a slender white stick in his hand. Then the rolling Yin energy wrapped around the stick like a black dragon and smashed towards the Unchanging Bone.

He learned from the letter left by Gu Qingyuan that the white staff was hard, but the thing in front of him was a strange creature, and he had no idea whether he could withstand it.

Buhuagu was unwilling to give up the body that was about to be in his hands, so he used the same old trick, opened his mouth wide, and bit the white stick hard.

He didn't care about the Yin energy entering his mouth. Think about how much Yin energy he had swallowed. Any magical powers and spells that fell into his mouth were just a small snack. After all, they could not withstand my own incorruptible bones.

Just as he was thinking about it, the Yin Energy did not enter his stomach as he wished. Instead, it seemed to have received an order and suddenly dispersed, bringing with it an incomparable chill. Buhuagu felt that his thinking had slowed down a bit.

The ordinary white stick that seemed to break with a bite was even more solid. It rolled again and again under his sharp teeth without any scratches or scratches. As Gu Chen stirred it vigorously, countless sharp teeth were broken. "You...what..."

Buhuagu uttered two words slowly, but before he finished speaking, Yin Qi in his body burst out, and black spots stained his bony body. A cold air burst out, and the originally jade-white joints turned into a black crystal wrapped in Yin and cold air.

The still struggling bloated ghost suddenly stopped and slowly collapsed. Half of the remaining flesh and bones turned into ashes, and the other half turned into blood. Only a spine and most of the ribs were left.

Yan Jing shook off the sweat on his forehead, waved his hand, and the golden rope flew back. He looked at the broken magic weapon with some pain. Although this golden rope can only be used to bind, it has a single function but also great power. He didn't expect to encounter a bloating ghost with extraordinary brute force.

"It's weird that I can encounter such a weird thing."

Yan Jing muttered and walked quickly towards Gu Chen who had just landed.

"Divide the spoils on the spot and leave quickly. I don't want to summon anything else."

By noon, the two men, who had been rushing on their way, felt drowsy and exhausted.

In just one night, they encountered several waves of strange creatures, including cleaning bugs that feed on filth, hanging coffins that are eerie and chase people, and floating bags that lure people with money but will fight to the death if they pick up gold and silver.

Weird creatures kept appearing, making the two men exhausted both physically and mentally. Even Yan Jing, who used to be a bit of a chatterbox, rarely spoke and just lowered his head to hurry on.

He looked at Gu Chen, who was silent and thoughtful on the road, and said, "Brother Gu, we seem to have touched a nest of evil along the way. Now that we are about to leave the forest, why don't we say goodbye now?"

There is a great dynasty in this world, called Chongguo, which is divided into ten regions. Under each region, there are prefectures and counties. There is a special agency to deal with strange things, called Luowangsi, which is in charge of evil and strange affairs and gathers warriors and monks under its jurisdiction.

Seeing that Gu Chen was a rookie who had never been far away from home before, Yan Jing wanted to establish a good relationship with him, act as a guide, and introduce him to Luowang Division to make some money. However, as time went by, he lost interest in this idea.

Although Huangyin Mountain is vast, the evil creatures live in different areas and each has its own territory. Even if you enter by mistake, as long as you are careful and don't make any big noise, you can probably get away safely.

It's nothing like it is now. I just finished dealing with it and before I could even catch my breath, the next strange thing came. Yan Jing thought he had never enjoyed this treatment before. He didn't reach out to take any strange objects after entering the forest. The only variable was that he met Gu Chen by chance.

The theory of fate is also popular in Da Chong. Due to the existence of strange creatures, some people's destiny is yin, which will attract strange creatures and evil spirits. Some cultivators have even developed methods to control ghosts and use themselves as containers to seal the strange creatures.

Yan Jing strongly suspected that Gu Chen belonged to one of these categories. Such people were as weird as they were dangerous. He felt that he had not lived enough, so he had to leave first.

The two men said goodbye in a hurry, and Yan Jing's running figure looked like he was chased by a wolf.

"Wow, this journey has really broadened my horizons. Are there really such sinister and evil people in the world?"

He felt distressed when he saw the insufficient stock of yellow talismans and broken magic tools in the treasure bag. Then he looked at the bulging remnants of strange objects and ghost treasures, and his face was filled with joy again.

"Not a loss, not a loss. Not only no loss, but a small profit. Unfortunately, it's a risk of life. I hope I don't run into that guy again."

Yan Jing finally sighed. This was all earned by risking his life. If it happened again, it might not be those strange creatures lying on the ground. He didn't want to go through that thrilling night again.

So, when Yan Jing saw Gu Chen three days later, his mentality exploded.
