The three were on high alert. Zhao Han and Guo Qiye even took out their treasures and attacked the shadow.
However, the shadow's target didn't seem to be them. It only flashed in front of their eyes and disappeared without a trace. The two corpses on the ground also disappeared, leaving behind only bloodstains.
"So fast!"
Everyone was very surprised. This black shadow was so fast that no one could see its true face.
The Black-haired Pheasant shouted, "Let's go. This ghost town is too strange. Even I have never seen such a scary thing."
This thing could speak human language, but it insisted on saying that it was "frightening a chicken". It sounded very strange, but after thinking about it carefully, that was indeed the case. This thing was a chicken in the first place.
However, just as it finished speaking, rapid and heavy footsteps came from behind. There were more patrolling Yin Soldiers chasing after them. However, there were fewer this time, only two Yin Soldiers.
Chen Nan rubbed his fist, "I really want to see if I can kill these Yin Soldiers."
Zhao Han held the pagoda in his hand and nodded, "I also want to try."
"Two lunatics."
Guo Qiye took a step back. He clearly didn't want to take the risk.
The Black-haired Pheasant also cursed and pecked their ears, "These Yin Soldiers are not battle corpses. They have an indestructible body. Not to mention the two of you, even if there were ten more of you, you still wouldn't be able to kill one Yin Soldier."
"You make it sound so mysterious. How would we know if we don't try?" Chen Nan held the demonic saber and said.
"Let me try first. Anyway, we are so far away. Even if we can't defeat them, we have enough time to escape." Zhao Han said and directly took out the pagoda and pressed it down on the head of one of the Yin Soldiers.
"Clang!"
A loud sound was heard and sparks flew everywhere.
The pagoda, a tenth-grade spirit tool, was sent flying. It hit the wall of the house with a "clang" and a crack appeared on the pagoda. However, the Yin soldier was not injured at all. Instead, he became even crazier. He raised the spear in his hand and stabbed forward. Suddenly, a black light pierced through the void and attacked Chen Nan and the others.
"Oh my God!"
The three were shocked and quickly dodged.
"Boom …"
The dark light shot out by the Yin Soldiers hit the ground, creating a huge crater in the stone floor. The violent wind lifted up countless pieces of the floorboards and rained down on Chen Nan and the others like giant hailstones.
The three of them were hit by several stones, and it took them a herculean effort to escape.
Fortunately, those Yin Soldiers were not fast, otherwise, the three of them would have died here today.
"F * ck, who told you to mess around? Now my head is swollen," the Black-haired Pheasant complained as it flapped its wings.
Looking at the cracks on the pagoda, Zhao Han sighed, "The strength of these Yin Soldiers is indeed not something we can withstand. With such a tough shell, I'm afraid that even a Treasure Artifact would not be able to kill them."
Chen Nan said, "I wonder if that extreme cold treasure is in the ghost town. If we can find that treasure, we should have a way to get out of here."
"It should be in the city!" Zhao Han analyzed, "Before we came in, the three-legged cauldron that was emitting cold air was less than a hundred meters away from the stone tablet. The area covered by this ghost town is at least a few miles wide. The cauldron must be in the city."
The Black-haired Pheasant shook its head and said, "That's hard to say. After all, everything in this ghost town is too mysterious."
"No matter what, we have to look for it. If it is really in the city, then we might have a way to get out." Chen Nan said seriously.
The three of them moved again and walked towards the center of the ghost town.
After walking for about three hundred meters, two figures appeared in front of them. Two young men were walking towards them with long swords in their hands.
"Brothers, did you find anything over there?" Zhao Han asked.
The two of them did not say a word and walked towards them with a dull look in their eyes. It was as if they were scared out of their wits.
"They seem to be scared out of their wits. Let's go and take a look."
Guo Qiye took the lead and ran over. He patted one of them on the shoulder and asked, "Are you guys okay? Did you find anything over there? "
The two young men raised their head and looked at him. A red light flashed in their eyes. They waved the long swords in their hands and chopped down at Guo Qiye.
These two were martial artists. Moreover, they were not weak.
Guo Qiye was a cultivator. How could he block their sneak attack at such a close distance? He dodged the first sword, but his arm was chopped by the second sword. Fortunately, he reacted at the crucial moment. He opened his mouth and spat out a flying sword. The flying sword pierced through the opponent's head. Then, he hastily retreated.
The remaining martial artist waved his long sword and chased after him. His movements were very stiff, just like those ghost soldiers.
Chen Nan took a step forward and punched the long sword in the martial artist's hand. Then, he grabbed the martial artist's two arms and twisted them. Suddenly, with a "pop" sound, the martial artist's joints were dislocated and he lost his ability to attack.
"It seems like their bodies are being controlled by someone." Chen Nan said.
Zhao Han nodded. Just as he was about to say something, a "pop" sound was suddenly heard. Blood flew out and a hole appeared on the martial artist's forehead. A thumb-sized beetle rushed out and pounced on Zhao Han's forehead.
"Clang …"
Zhao Han hastily dodged. Then, the pagoda came crashing down and smashed the beetle into pieces.
"What the hell is this?"
"It seems like these things are controlling their bodies."
The Black-haired Pheasant jumped to the ground and stared at the smashed beetle. He said, "It looks like the legendary Soul Devouring Bug. It's small in size and fast in speed. The scariest thing about it is that it can devour people's souls and control their bodies."
"I didn't expect such things to exist in this place," Chen Nan said.
The Black-haired Pheasant jumped on his shoulder and said, "These Soul Devouring Bugs can be said to be the nemesis of martial artists. Because martial artists generally have weak mental strength, their souls are easily devoured."
Chen Nan looked at the two corpses on the ground. "No wonder their souls were devoured so easily even though their cultivations were not weak."
"There are so many bugs. Let's go!"
Suddenly, a voice was heard. Then, they saw three martial artists running towards them.
Behind the three of them, there was a black mass of Soul Devouring Bugs on the ground. There were at least a few hundred of them.
"Save me, save me quickly!"
After seeing Chen Nan, the three of them cried for help.
Chen Nan ignored them and turned to leave with Zhao Han and the rest.
A few hundred Soul Devouring Bugs were not easy to deal with. Moreover, once they found the Absolute Frost Treasure, the three of them would become rivals for the treasure. It was better to let them die here to prevent future trouble.
In this world of the ghost town, there was no such thing as benevolence!
If you save them now, they might turn around and kill you after finding the Absolute Frost Treasure.
"Save us. We know where the Absolute Frost Treasure is!"
The three of them cried for help again. This time, Chen Nan stopped.
