409: Shadow Lizard

The spiritual entity did not respond, but the scene changed.

Instantly, Su Han held his breath, trying to capture useful information from the chaotic light and shadows that were beginning to shift.

Bi Yao and the Gravekeeper were also fully concentrated, fine beads of sweat appearing on their foreheads, clearly indicating that deciphering this information was not easy.

"It... it says the Erosion Abyss's weakness is in..."

Su Han struggled to utter a few words, but was suddenly interrupted by a sharp buzzing sound.

The spiritual entity seemed startled, its light suddenly becoming dazzling, trembling violently in Su Han's hand.

The surrounding air also began to twist, and the originally calm mist instantly churned and surged, as if an invisible giant hand was stirring it.

The Gravekeeper's face changed drastically, and she fiercely drew the long blade from her waist, its blade glowing with a faint blue light:

"Not good! Something is interfering with the spiritual entity!"

Before her words finished, a deafening roar came from afar, filled with brutality and rage, making the trio's eardrums ache.

Su Han felt the ground beneath his feet tremble slightly, and a chill crawled up his spine to the top of his head.

Bi Yao, enduring her weakness, quickly pulled out a Jade Slip covered in runes from her embrace; the runes on the Jade Slip flickered with a faint light:

"This is a Jade Slip that shields Qi fluctuations. Protect the spiritual entity first!"

She gently placed the Jade Slip on the spiritual entity, and its trembling slightly eased, but its light still flickered erratically, extremely unstable.

Just then, a pair of eerie green eyes suddenly appeared in the mist, like two ghost fires, staring intently at them in the darkness.

With the appearance of the eyes, a colossal figure slowly emerged from the mist; it was a giant beast covered in black scales.

Its body was as tall as a small mountain, and with every step, it left deep footprints in the ground.

The Qi exhaled from the giant beast's mouth carried a pungent sulfur smell, and wherever it passed, plants instantly withered.

"It's a Shadow Demon Lizard!"

The Gravekeeper's expression was solemn, "This type of demon lizard loves to devour spiritual entities. It seems to be coming for the spiritual entity in our hands!"

Su Han gripped the long sword in his hand, a faint golden light appearing on its blade.

At this moment, the giant beast opened its gaping maw, let out a roar, and pounced towards the trio.

Su Han's figure flickered, and he rushed forward first, his long sword cutting through the air, piercing towards the giant beast's eyes with sharp Sword Qi.

The giant beast reacted extremely quickly, tilting its head slightly, and Su Han's sword only left a shallow mark on its scales.

Seeing this, Bi Yao formed hand seals, muttering incantations, and a purple lightning bolt struck down from the sky, directly hitting the giant beast.

The giant beast cried out in pain, letting out a shriek, then turned and swung its tail, lashing out at Bi Yao.

A fierce glint flashed in the Gravekeeper's eyes, and she brandished her long blade, creating a flurry of blade light, blocking in front of Bi Yao.

The blade light collided with the beast's tail, producing a loud bang, and the Gravekeeper was pushed back repeatedly by the powerful impact, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

Su Han seized the opportunity to circle behind the giant beast and fiercely thrust his sword into its hind leg.

The giant beast roared in pain, lost its balance, and crashed to the ground.

However, just as the trio thought they were temporarily out of danger, the giant beast's body suddenly began to twist and deform, its black scales falling off, revealing the scarred flesh underneath.

Immediately after, its body began to swell, emitting a strong aura of death.

"Not good! It's going to self-destruct!"

The Gravekeeper shouted, "Retreat quickly!"

The trio ran backward with all their might, and a thunderous explosion echoed behind them, the powerful Qi wave sending them flying.

Su Han adjusted his posture in mid-air, landing steadily, but found that Bi Yao and the Gravekeeper had been swept in another direction by the Qi wave.

He disregarded his own injuries and ran towards where Bi Yao and the Gravekeeper had disappeared.

When he found the two, he saw that the Gravekeeper was protecting Bi Yao with her body, covered in wounds, with blood continuously gushing out. (End of Chapter)
