"Master, you're good to me, so I won't leave. My transformation technique has a time limit. Once I leave, Master, you will quickly revert to your original form. We Starfish Race can combine with other living beings to extend the duration of our transformation. Let me stay, "Bai Xing suddenly said with a resolute gaze.
"You have such an ability? Alright, I'll leave it to you then! "Shen Luo paused for a moment before nodding.
He was also worried about the time limit for his transformation technique. He didn't expect Bai Xing to have such an ability.
After saying that, he made a hand seal to disperse the Psychic Water Cave. Then, he took out a black silk book and crushed it. Only then did he consume the Hibernating Yin Pill.
This black silk book was the Psychic Contract given to him by the Soul-Reaping Horse-Face. When he was in danger, he could summon it to save him.
The Soul-Reaping Horse-Face was only at the Soul Condensation Stage. He didn't know if he could defeat this Out of Body Stage ghost. However, the situation was urgent, so he couldn't care less.
As soon as the Hibernating Yin Pill entered his stomach, it immediately turned into a cold current that quickly spread throughout his body.
Not long after, the mana in Shen Luo's body was completely withdrawn. His body became cold, and the skin on the surface of his body became greenish-black. He was like a corpse, but his five senses were still there. It was just that they were much weaker than usual.
Bai Xing wriggled her body and quickly crawled onto Shen Luo's body. A misty white light appeared on her body and wrapped around the two of them.
Their bodies quickly became blurry and turned into black stones. They didn't emit any aura, and they were no different from the falling stones around them.
This was the first time Shen Luo had been transformed by Bai Xing. He felt a little strange. His eyes could still observe the situation around him, and his ears could also hear sounds.
Just as Bai Xing completed her transformation, the ghostly Qi in the depths of the giant hall became even more intense. There was also a clattering sound, as if iron chains were being dragged on the ground.
At this moment, the sound of digging could also be heard in the sealed tunnel. It was getting louder and louder. Apparently, Chen Gang was using some kind of magic to dig out the collapsed tunnel. It seemed like he was about to open it up.
"Great, you two better fight first!" Shen Luo sensed this unexpected situation and suddenly became excited.
At this moment, a yellow shadow flashed at the entrance of the back hall, and a tall black ghost shadow slowly walked out. It looked like it was a prisoner when it was alive. Its hair was disheveled, and covered most of its face. Its neck and feet were shackled and shackled. Two black iron chains were dragged on the ground behind it, and constantly made ear-piercing sounds.
Shen Luo could tell from the dense Ghost Qi that this ghost was at least at the late stage of the Out of Aperture realm. Shen Luo was not sure if he could deceive it.
The shackled ghost slowly raised its head and looked at the white-robed youth and the others in the hall. Two balls of bloody light suddenly lit up behind its scattered hair.
No one saw how it moved, but the chains behind the ghost flew up as if they had come alive. With a "pu" sound, they pierced into the bodies of the white-robed youth and the leopard head man.
The bodies of the white-robed young man and the leopard head man shook, and they were roused from their deep sleep. Then, they issued shrill screams.
However, the two of them were currently heavily injured and had no strength to resist.
A wisp of bloody light gushed out of their bodies, and merged into the black iron chains.
The bodies of the white-robed youth and the leopard head man quickly shriveled up. They turned into mummified corpses after two or three breaths.
The two iron chains shot out again, and pierced into the corpses of the red-robed young woman and the one-eyed man. Then, their corpses were sucked dry as well.
There was silence in the hall. The sound of digging in the collapsed passageway had stopped. Chen Gang seemed to have sensed the situation here, and stopped digging.
The shackled ghost's eyes glowed with bloody light after it had absorbed the blood of the four people. Then, it looked at the other places in the hall, and a trace of confusion appeared in its eyes.
Shen Luo's heart was in his throat. He tried his best to calm down.
Suddenly, the void around the black stone that Shi Mu had transformed into moved. Then, a wisp of faint black Qi emerged, and covered the black stone.
The shackled ghost's line of sight swept over the place where Shen Luo was hiding. But, it didn't stay there for long.
Only then did Shen Luo's anxious heart slowly calm down.
The bloody light in the shackled ghost's eyes continued to move. Then, it suddenly looked at the collapsed passageway, and roared in excitement. Its body suddenly turned into a black shadow, and disappeared into the collapsed passageway. Its speed was shockingly fast, and was in sharp contrast to its previous slow movement.
Rumble!
Suddenly, the sound of fighting came from the depths of the passageway. It was mixed with a cry of surprise and anger. It was Chen Gang's voice.
Shen Luo was happy to hear this sound. But, he didn't dare to stay still.
The sound of fighting only resounded a few times. Then, a shrill scream came from the passageway. Then, everything returned to silence.
After a few breaths, a black shadow flashed in the collapsed passageway. The shackled ghost's figure reappeared. It slowly walked into the depths of the hall, and disappeared.
"Come out. That guy is gone. You brat, you summoned me to deal with such a powerful resentful ghost. Do you want to kill me? " The void around the black stone fluctuated, and a figure emerged. It was the Soul Hooking Horse-Face.
Shen Luo's black stone also flashed with white light. After a while, it turned back into his and Bai Xing's figures.
"You brat, you know how to hide." The Soul Hooking Horse-Face glanced at Shen Luo, and raised his eyebrows.
Bai Xing looked at the Soul Hooking Horse-Face, and her small eyes revealed a trace of fear. She hurriedly climbed down from Shen Luo's body, and waited quietly to the side.
"Senior Horse-Face, I made things difficult for you. The situation was critical. I didn't have time to think. So, I used the psychic contract." Shen Luo said apologetically. He was still lying on the ground.
His whole body was stiff at this moment. He couldn't move, and his words were somewhat unclear.
"You took the Hibernating Yin Pill? No wonder you can restrain your aura to this extent. "The Soul Hooking Horse-Face sized up Shen Luo. Then, he raised his hand and pressed on Shen Luo's shoulder.
Shen Luo felt the cold aura of the Hibernating Yin Pill in his body move. It all gathered toward the Soul Hooking Horse-Face's hand.
After a few breaths, his body returned to normal, and he stood up.
"Thank you for your help, Senior."
"Okay, I helped you this time. We're even now. Hmm, your cultivation is progressing quite quickly. You're almost catching up to me. "The Soul Hooking Horse-Face sized up Shen Luo.
"Senior is overpraising me." Shen Luo smiled.
"You're so arrogant just because I praised you. You brat, you really know how to cause trouble. You actually dared to come to this ancient tomb on the Yin Ridge Mountain alone. You must be tired of living. Even the underworld doesn't dare to meddle in this place." The Soul Hooking Horse-Face's face darkened, and he reprimanded.
"I didn't expect this place to be so dangerous. This trip was also intertwined with all kinds of accidents. It wasn't my intention." Shen Luo smiled bitterly.
"No matter what, I'll take you out of here first. We can't stay here for long." The Soul Hooking Horse-Face obviously didn't want to stay here any longer. He raised his hand and grabbed Shen Luo's shoulder.
"Senior, please wait a moment." Shen Luo said. Then, he made a hand seal to summon a ball of water and opened the Psychic Water Cave.
"Bai Xing, thank you so much for this time. Quickly return to the East Sea."
Bai Xing didn't say anything. Her figure flashed, and she disappeared into the Psychic Water Cave.
"You're very kind to the Demon Clan. You're very different from ordinary cultivators." The Soul Hooking Horse-Face smiled.
"Whether it's cultivators or the Demon Clan, they're all living beings. Even if there are some demons that harm people, that's only a part of them. There's no need to generalize," Shen Luo said quietly.
