Chapter 222 Red Lantern Ghost Faced Jiao
Black abyss.
It is located in the waters of the Nine Star Alliance, a hundred miles south of Unzen Island.
There is a huge trench three hundred feet wide and twenty-seven miles long under the sea. The rock walls of the trench are flat and smooth, as if they were split with a sharp weapon.
There are many colorful coral reef-like sea plants growing on the upper rock walls of the trench, which look extremely beautiful under the sunlight, and various sea creatures shuttle among them.
And in the lower layer of the trench, there is a place where the sun cannot shine. It is as dark as ink, no sea plants grow, and no fish or crabs can enter. It is like a forbidden land for creatures.
Most mortals on Unzen Island like to come to the Black Abyss to fish. Since the incident of the evil dragon swallowing people more than ten years ago, there has been no fishing boat on the Black Abyss. Even within a radius of ten miles, no fishing boats dare to approach.
During this period, the elders of the Nine Star Alliance came to hunt monsters. Unfortunately, the evil dragon was too smart to hide under the black abyss and could not come out. The elders who worshiped him did not dare to go down, so he failed to hunt monsters several times.
The last time was two years ago when Nangong Zhishan came to hunt monsters in person. She fought her way into the black abyss, but the evil dragon had excellent water properties and escaped easily due to the favorable location.
Nangong Aotian looked at the dark trench and shook his head: "I'm afraid it's difficult to catch this evil dragon. I don't know what's going on down there. If we go down hastily, something unexpected might happen."
Lin Sheng's eyes were deep and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. The trench was only ten thousand feet deep, and his consciousness had already reached the bottom of the trench.
After a brief glance around, except for a few sea caves covered by Monster Qi, no evil dragons were seen.
‘The evil dragon is probably hiding in the sea cave, so we have to find a way to fish it out. ’
Thinking of this, Lin Sheng opened the Spirit Beast bag and released the Spirit Fire Toad.
"Quack quack?"
The Spirit Fire Toad croaked loudly as soon as it came out, its face full of anger. It has not been in the Spirit Beast bag for more than ten years. Is that a place where a frog can stay?
Lin Sheng smiled slightly: "Want to eat Beast Core?"
"Quack? Quack, quack."
The angry expression of the Spirit Fire Toad was slightly stagnant, and then a flattering look appeared on the frog's face, and he nodded repeatedly.
Lin Sheng smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, have you seen the trench? There is an evil dragon in it, you lure it up."
The Spirit Fire Toad followed the direction of Lin Sheng's finger and looked towards the trench. His eyes widened suddenly and he shook his head repeatedly.
"Quack quack quack, quack quack quack."
Seeing this scene, Nangong Aotian smiled hoarsely. He had already guessed the intention when Lin Sheng took out the Spirit Fire Toad.
It is a very good idea to use this Rank One demon frog as live bait to lure the Rank Two evil dragon out of the black abyss.
Just looking at the appearance of this demon frog, it is obvious that it strongly disagrees.
"Don't want to?"
Lin Sheng looked surprised, and then showed a strange smile: "You have to think clearly, you are just freeloading on me every day and doing nothing."
"Now there is a fox demon. If you don't want to, I can use that fox demon as well."
"Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack."
The Spirit Fire Toad nodded repeatedly, thinking that it was very appropriate to let the fox demon serve as bait.
"If I use the fox demon, what use will you have to me?"
The smile on Lin Sheng's face became more and more weird. He turned to look at Nangong Aotian: "Dear brother, have you ever eaten charcoal-grilled bullfrog? It tastes so good."
"I have never eaten this before." Nangong Aotian shook his head; "If possible, I would like to try it."
"Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack!"
The Spirit Fire Toad looked so helpless that he jumped into the sea and threatened his life. Isn't this trying to get rid of the frog?
Lin Sheng's face showed satisfaction when he saw this. This demon frog is good at everything, but it is too timid and afraid of death. However, fear of death can be considered an advantage, and you can use this advantage to blackmail it.
He looked at Nangong Aotian: "Dear brother, do you have something to hide your figure?"
"Of course there is."
Nangong Aotian took out a gray ball, and after entering a few spells, a gray mist emerged from the ball and enveloped his body.
After two breaths, the gray fog dissipated, and Nangong Aotian disappeared into thin air.
Lin Sheng was slightly surprised. His consciousness covered the place where Nangong Aotian disappeared and found no flaws. He couldn't help but admire.
"Good baby!"
"Brother, thank you. This is the Law Weapon. It can hide your body and isolate your consciousness."
Hearing this, Lin Sheng's heart moved, his eyes flickered slightly, and he saw Nangong Aotian shrouded in gray mist, and his slightly proud expression.
Seeing Lin Sheng's gaze, Nangong Aotian looked slightly stunned and said hesitantly: "Brother, have you seen me?"
"No." Lin Sheng shook his head.
"Really? Why do I feel like you have seen me."
"Haha, you must have felt wrong."
Lin Sheng smiled, took out the invisibility cloak and put it on. The Law Weapon obtained from the Rouxiang Collection had been gathering dust in the storage ring for more than ten years, and finally had a use again.
"Oh... brother, this hidden object is not bad."
"Haha, just average."
Lin Sheng looked at the Spirit Fire Toad floating on the sea, and said through a message: "Why are you flapping on the sea? Go to the trench and lure that evil dragon out."
"Quack quack quack."
The Spirit Fire Toad shook its head repeatedly. As a frog demon, it could sense a terrifying existence in the trench. Wouldn't it dare to swim into the trench without seeing those small fish?
"Don't be afraid, just swim down, I will cover you from behind."
"Quack, quack, quack." The Spirit Fire Toad still shook its head and refused, flopping on the sea, which was already its bottom line.
Lin Sheng sighed quietly: "Oh, I am discussing this with you because I am thinking of old feelings, but don't let me be cruel."
Upon hearing these words, the Spirit Fire Toad's expression changed drastically. It could smell the strong murderous intent in these words, and immediately got into the trench and swam towards the dark abyss.
"Is this frog in danger?" Nangong Aotian asked in a serious voice. It would be a pity for this intelligent demon frog to die.
"It doesn't matter."
Lin Sheng didn't care. His consciousness covered the trench. As long as the evil dragon swam out of the sea cave covered by Monster Qi, he would be able to detect it immediately and notify the Spirit Fire Toad to escape.
As long as it gets close to the sea and seals the heaven and earth with the divine forbidden method, this evil dragon cannot escape even if it wants to.
The divine forbidden method can be cast as long as it is in a place shrouded by divine consciousness.
But the distance that Lin Sheng was sure of was only ten miles. Beyond this distance, the speed of the divine forbidden method to seal the world would slow down, making it easy for the evil dragon to seize the opportunity and escape.
For a sea monster like the evil dragon, it can swim a thousand meters in the sea in the blink of an eye. If it cannot be captured, it will not be so easy to chase it.
The Spirit Fire Toad swam several thousand meters into the trench and then stopped swimming. There was a hint of wisdom in its big frog eyes.
Then a stream of yellow liquid flowed out from under the frog's belly and spread in the sea.
‘Haha, this stupid frog is quite smart. ’
Seeing this scene, Lin Sheng smiled hoarsely, using urine to lure the evil dragon was a good idea.
. . .
Time passes slowly.
Under the vast ocean, in a black hole filled with Monster Qi, two bright red light groups suddenly lit up.
The red light spreads outward, dispelling the oppressive darkness.
‘If this evil dragon can be captured and subdued, he will be much more reliable as a housekeeper and nurse than that stupid frog. ’
With a crash, the Spirit Fire Toad jumped out of the sea.
On the two horns, a blood-red tendon grew. On the other end of the tendon, two large flesh-shaped lanterns hung, and red light emerged from the flesh lanterns.
It was abandoned!
The Spirit Fire Toad desperately ran away into the distance with its head buried in the water. It was so fast that the sea surface seemed to be split open by a sharp sword, and the waves splashed.
"Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack!!!!"
Nangong Aotian exclaimed. Fortunately, he was thousands of meters above the ground and his voice could not reach the sea.
A pitiful cry of frogs echoed on the sea.
Three hundred years ago, the Yue Kingdom of Dongzhou was plagued by demons. Among them was a Rank Three red-light ghost beast that held a lamp and sucked the souls of mortals everywhere. In the end, it was killed by the design of the Profound Heaven Sword Sect.
The frog's cry sounded several times louder than before, seeming to break through the sky.
In the sky, Lin Sheng was wandering in the sky. In the sea, the Spirit Fire Toad almost died of swimming.
Such a scene dispelled the worries in the evil dragon's heart. It had already seen the spirit fire toad, and now it only had one thought, which was to eat this ignorant toad.
Fortunately, it didn't swim very deep into the trench, and the Spirit Fire Toad finally broke out of the sea after a frantic flutter.
"Quack quack quack! quack quack!"
It felt the vibration of the sea water caused by the evil dragon swimming out of the sea cave at that time, and it had to push up the sea water at the risk of its life.
Nangong Aotian looked at the Spirit Fire Toad jumping back and forth on the sea and howling at the top of his voice, and his face couldn't help but tremble a few times.
"Quack quack quack!"
‘Even if you carry it with you, it’s much more cool than that stupid frog. ’
The Spirit Fire Toad screamed until its throat was almost smoking, but no one responded. It looked at the empty sky, and a trace of doubt appeared in the big frog's eyes, which soon turned into panic.
"Quack!"
"This dragon has some intelligence, but not much."
‘It’s actually a red light ghost-faced dragon. ’
Lin Sheng was slightly surprised. Among the Monsters, this dragon was rare and a rare species.
"Brother, this demon frog is screaming quite miserably. Could the evil dragon have appeared?"
Lin Sheng grinned and raised his hand to grab the evil dragon. Suddenly, vertical and horizontal lines of light appeared in the air.
While the Spirit Fire Toad was escaping, he did not forget to turn his head and look back. When he saw two large red lanterns getting closer and closer under the sea, Frog Face was shocked.
Lin Sheng's eyes fell on the sea water under the Spirit Fire Toad. The evil dragon had almost rushed out of the trench, but its speed suddenly slowed down.
"Red light ghost-faced dragon!"
I saw an evil dragon with red horns protruding its huge head from the hole. On its forehead, there was a lifelike evil face.
The evil dragon raised his head and sniffed his nose, with a trace of anger in his evil eyes. The huge body of the dragon smashed into the sea cave and swam towards the sea surface at high speed.
The sea water surged, large bubbles emerged from the trench, and an evil dragon covered in pitch black rushed out of the trench and chased after the escaping Spirit Fire Toad.
"That's right, this dragon is a bit wary, don't act rashly."
Following a loud bang, the evil dragon rushed out of the sea, opened its mouth and bit the Spirit Fire Toad in the air.
Lin Sheng thought to himself, and couldn't help but think of Nangong Zhishan's big black python. He didn't know the breed of the black python, but in terms of size, this evil dragon was several times bigger than the big black python.
If this monster advances to Rank Three and becomes a Great Monster, it will take off the two flesh lanterns on its horns and swallow them into its body to refine them into a pair of natal lanterns called Law Treasure, which have the power to summon souls.
