82: Chapter 82 The Twin Rings of Sun and Moon
Yao Shifei's trembling voice trailed off.
"Eaten."
These three words made the expressions of the group change instantly.
The last trace of color drained completely from the faces of the Huangfu Sisters, Huangfu Yunni and Huangfu Yunshang.
"Ah, what do you mean by 'eaten'?"
Huangfu Yunni's scream was shrill and piercing.
"Does it mean we... we are inside a Yao Beast's stomach?"
The usually calm Huangfu Yunshang's voice also trembled uncontrollably as she gripped Jiang Feng's arm tightly.
Young Master Jiang Chen remained silent, his expression showing no change.
But the veins on the back of his hand, tightly gripping the sword hilt, bulged one by one, and his entire body's muscles were tensed, waiting at any moment for Jiang Feng's command; he knew Jiang Feng must have a way.
"Stop making noise, be quiet."
Jiang Feng's voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable calmness that forcibly suppressed the sisters' fear.
It seemed his guess was correct.
This was not some cave at all, but the stomach of that Tier 3 Demon King.
And they had walked into the prey's mouth step by step themselves.
Watching the black liquid constantly seeping out, the walls of flesh continued to writhe toward the five of them.
Jiang Feng quickly took off the golden crow bracelet from his wrist and handed it to Yao Shifei.
"Fei'er, try using the golden crow bracelet."
Yao Shifei took the bracelet and, without the slightest hesitation, forcibly suppressed the terror in her heart and poured her True Qi into it.
Hum!
The golden crow bracelet shone brilliantly.
Two golden crows burning with intense flames whistled out, carrying a scorching high temperature, and slammed fiercely into the constantly writhing flesh walls!
The entire space was instantly illuminated by the scorching golden light, and the temperature rose sharply.
"Sss..."
The scene she imagined of the flesh walls being burned through did not appear.
The golden crows collided with the flesh walls, only exploding into a charred black mark and emitting a disgusting sound of flesh being burned.
The flesh walls twitched violently, leaving only a large patch of charred black where it was struck, but that was all.
It didn't even burn through a small hole!
The next second, more black sticky liquid began to seep out from the charred mark, repairing the burn marks to their original state in the blink of an eye.
The two golden crows let out a cry of unwillingness, their spiritual power exhausted, and dissipated into nothingness.
Only a gray pallor remained in the eyes of the Huangfu Sisters.
They had witnessed the terror of the golden crow bracelet; when Jiang Feng at the Qi Refinement Stage activated it, he could burn a Tier 2 Yao Beast to death, yet now that Yao Shifei at the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage was using it, this was the result.
It was clear how terrifying this Tier 3 Demon King was, and a sense of deathly fear instantly welled up in their hearts.
"Husband! It's no use!"
Yao Shifei quickly swallowed a top-grade hua zhen pill to replenish her own consumption and said urgently.
"It's useless!"
Jiang Feng's expression also darkened.
The physical defense of this Yao Beast exceeded his understanding; even a Low Grade true artifact had absolutely no effect on it.
Worse still, the writhing flesh walls around them were closing in at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the space was constantly shrinking.
Those foul-smelling black sticky liquids seeped out from all directions, converging into streams and spreading toward their feet.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."
Wherever the sticky liquid passed, the hard rocky ground was corroded, emitting puffs of green smoke.
Seeing this, Yao Shifei waved her jade hand, and a pale cyan light shield instantly enveloped the five of them.
"Husband, this thing is extremely corrosive; my shield won't last long."
Before she could finish speaking, the outer wall of the light shield made a "crack" sound, and a thin fissure appeared!
The black sticky liquid seeped in along the crack, and one drop fell to the ground, instantly corroding a small pit that emitted green smoke.
The scent of death rushed toward them so realistically.
Huangfu Yunshang and Huangfu Yunni were trembling with fear, huddling tightly together, their breathing even coming to a halt.
"Second Master, let me fight my way out; even if I die, I will help you blast open a gap."
Young Master Jiang Chen gripped his long sword tightly, looking fearless of death.
"Stand down!"
Jiang Feng scolded sternly.
His gaze swept quickly across this desperate place that was being compressed.
Weapons, skeletons... everything was being reduced to nothing under the corrosion of the black sticky liquid.
No, that's not right.
His line of sight suddenly froze.
Right by his feet, that pair of sun and moon rings that the Huangfu Sisters had thrown away was lying there quietly.
Everything around was being corroded and digested, but this pair of rings was not only unscathed, the light flowing on it pushed the black liquid away, shining even brighter.
This was definitely no ordinary object!
"Fei'er, try using this!"
Jiang Feng picked up the sun and moon rings from the ground and stuffed them directly into Yao Shifei's hands.
Yao Shifei took the rings, gave Jiang Feng a deep look, and activated them by circulating her True Qi again.
The moment Yao Shifei injected her True Qi, the pair of rings, which had originally only been flickering with flowing light, now erupted with brilliant silver radiance!
A loud humming sound erupted!
On the sun ring, the blazing sun pattern came to life, emitting a scorching heat.
On the moon ring, the crescent moon pattern also suddenly lit up, emitting an eerie chill.
One cold and one hot, two opposing forces erupted from the rings!
The sun and moon rings spun at high speed, carrying a sharpness capable of cutting through everything.
"Go!"
Yao Shifei shouted sharply and threw the rings with all her might.
The sun and moon rings turned into two spinning silver lights, carrying a sharp whistle that tore through the air, and slashed fiercely toward the constantly squeezing flesh walls!
"Ripβ!"
This time, it was no longer the ineffective sound of burning.
It was the sound of flesh being torn apart alive!
That incredibly tough flesh wall, which even the golden crow's true fire could do nothing about, was actually torn open by a huge gap under the cutting of the sun and moon rings!
"Roar."
Waves of wailing sounds came, and the sound carried endless pressure, causing all five of them to nearly kneel on the ground under a force of Five Elements.
At the same time, a ray of blinding light shone in from the rift!
"It worked! Let's go!"
Jiang Feng let out a low shout, endured the pressure, his spiritual power surged throughout his body, and exerting all his strength, he jumped first toward the rift that let in the light!
The four of them followed closely behind!
The strong light made it impossible for everyone to open their eyes for a moment.
When their feet stepped back onto solid ground and they adapted to the light, they realized they had returned to the huge underground cavern from before.
Everything was exactly the same as before.
The weapons scattered on the ground, the craggy strange rocks, even the smell of sulfur and blood in the air had not changed.
They almost thought that the thrilling struggle for survival in the stomach just now was just a hallucination.
But the foul-smelling sticky liquid stained on their bodies reminded them that all of this was real.
"We... are out?"
Huangfu Yunni muttered to herself, the relief of surviving a disaster making her voice tremble.
"Cough, cough."
Yao Shifei had activated the true artifact twice in a row, and the consumption of True Qi in her body was too great, causing her face to turn pale.
Jiang Feng quickly supported her and fed her another hua zhen pill; he didn't have much else, but there were plenty of hua zhen pills.
He carefully examined the surroundings.
That eerie pool of blood was still there.
The stone disc in the center of the pool, carved with twisted patterns, was now floating in mid-air, slowly rotating.
But on the disc, it was no longer a dead pattern.
It had turned into a water mirror, flashing with blurry images one after another.
