304: Giant skull, showing its skills

Meng Ziyi panicked and said, "Brother Ye, what should we do now? We can't just sit here and wait for death!"

Ye Bai looked at the large pit, his eyes lighting up as he said, "Since there is no danger inside this large pit, I actually have a way to get the things inside out!"

Yang Mi asked worriedly, "What are you trying to do?"

"Digging up a grave!"

Yang Mi was startled and looked at Ye Bai in surprise, thinking that this person was truly bold.

"Let's leave here first before we talk!"

Ye Bai took the entrenching shovel and walked toward the large pit, preparing to pry open the soil on the Tomb wall.

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi both followed him as he moved outward, afraid of triggering some terrifying mechanism.

"Rumble!" The ground shook violently.

"Not good, this thing has broken its seal and come out!"

Ye Bai immediately dove into the bushes nearby. Sure enough, the Tomb Gate opened, and a jet-black skeleton crawled out from inside.

The skeleton stood still, staring at Ye Bai with its turbid eyes, a gaze filled with intense resentment and anger.

Ye Bai's mind raced, thinking to himself that this thing was definitely not simple and must be eliminated as soon as possible!

Thus, Ye Bai quietly circled to the other side of the Tomb, raising his entrenching shovel to aim at the skeleton. As long as the skeleton dared to move, he would strike immediately!

The skeleton suddenly raised an arm, aiming at Ye Bai. The arm instantly swelled to twice its size, muscles bulging and veins protruding. At the same time, it swung its fist towards Ye Bai.

Ye Bai hurriedly raised his entrenching shovel to block the rough, hard arm. However, he was forced to bend over and lower his head by the pressure of that arm, his knees hitting the ground.

"Bang!" A dull thud sounded.

Ye Bai was pressed flat on the ground. He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to push himself up. However, that arm was still pressing down on his shoulder, pinning him firmly.

"Ah!" Ye Bai let out a loud shout and kicked hard with both legs against that arm.

The skeleton was kicked away, its body slamming heavily against the Tomb Gate, making a "bang" sound.

Ye Bai panted for a moment, straightened his body, and snorted coldly, "Mere child's play!"

Just then, a cloud of black mist drifted over. The black mist, as if it had a life of its own, wrapped around Ye Bai's ankles, neck, and other parts, then began to climb upwards.

"Not good! This thing can absorb the soul of living creatures!"

Ye Bai's expression changed drastically, and he immediately lashed out with a whip. But the black mist, as if it had intelligence, avoided the tip of the whip and continued to pounce on him.

Ye Bai kept swinging the whip, trying to stop the black mist from approaching him, but it was to no avail. His body was tightly wrapped by the black mist, just like a Corpse.

Just then, the large pit suddenly exploded, the coffin lid was blown away, and the Jiao-person skeletal remains inside splattered out.

The Jiao-person skeletal remains slammed into Ye Bai's chest. The force was too great, sending Ye Bai flying ten meters away.

Fortunately, the body of this Jiao-person skeleton was too massive; if it had been an ordinary skeleton, this blow would have been fatal.

Ye Bai fell to the ground, taking a long while to recover, his chest burning with pain.

He had just struggled to stand up when he saw that huge Jiao-person skeleton leap from the ground and stomp down on him fiercely. Ye Bai hurriedly raised his entrenching shovel to resist.

"Crack!"

That stone-like metal object was actually crushed!

There was actually a perfect, flawless skeleton inside that large pit!

This skeleton was preserved extremely well; even the skin had not rotted, still retaining the color of jade.

Moreover, this skeleton was over five meters tall, and its width was astonishing. That such a massive body could still maintain a perfect state was simply incredible. The owner of this skeleton must have been extraordinary in life!

If such a skeleton were to fall into the mortal world, it would likely cause a huge uproar.

Ye Bai dared not hesitate any longer and immediately fled.

However, this skeleton seemed to have locked onto Ye Bai. It took long strides, chasing after Ye Bai with astonishing speed.

Ye Bai ran all the way. However, he ran slower and slower.

Because the skeleton's pace was too fast; he couldn't keep up at all!

At this moment, Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi ran nearby. When they saw the scene of the skeleton chasing and trying to kill Ye Bai, they immediately stopped, their faces drained of color, terrified, and nearly fainted.

The skeleton seemed to have noticed Yang Mi and the others, so it changed direction and lunged towards them. Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi screamed and fled, dodging desperately. However, how could they escape? The skeleton easily grabbed Meng Ziyi and opened its mouth to bite her throat.

"Help!!" Meng Ziyi screamed, terrified. She felt the aura of death.

"Snap!"

Ye Bai suddenly turned back, rushing desperately in front of Meng Ziyi, then raised his entrenching shovel to strike the skeleton's head, attempting to stop it. But the skeleton's reaction speed was incredibly fast; it suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Bai by the neck.

"Creak, creak..." Ye Bai only heard the sound of bones shifting out of place. He felt suffocated.

Ye Bai used all his strength to give a hard twist, and with a "crack," he snapped the skeleton's bones. The skeleton's body hung limply, and Ye Bai quickly pushed it away.

Ye Bai let out a long breath and looked at Yang Mi gratefully.

Yang Mi's expression was very complex; she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, nor did she know what she should do.

"Let's go." Ye Bai urged.

Yang Mi nodded. Meng Ziyi was terrified out of her wits; she couldn't say a word, just standing there blankly, her gaze dull, looking completely stupefied.

Ye Bai patted her shoulder and said, "Let's go quickly."

"Oh..." Meng Ziyi responded dully and followed Ye Bai as they fled.

The three of them ran wildly all the way and finally arrived at the Cave entrance. They stopped, panting, their faces full of terror and exhaustion.

Yang Mi supported her knees with her hands, panting heavily, and said, "This... this is just too terrifying. We almost didn't make it back."

Meng Ziyi was still terrified, her face pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "I... I thought we were going to die there."

Ye Bai's expression was solemn as he looked at the Cave behind them and said, "This place is even more dangerous than I imagined. We must leave here as soon as possible and report the situation here to the relevant departments."

At this moment, the audience in the Live Stream Room was also quite frightened by the thrilling scene just now, and the bullet comments were scrolling crazily.

"Too exciting! This is practically a life-and-death escape!"

"Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi have had it so tough, I hope they are safe and sound."

"Ye Bai is truly amazing; he can always step up at critical moments."

"How many secrets is this Tomb hiding? It feels increasingly mysterious."

After resting a little, the three of them began to walk back along the path they had come from. Along the way, they maintained a high level of vigilance, fearing that more danger might appear.
