Chapter 324: Monster


    The Daoist Human Xiao saw Li Huowang and quickly threw out two ck gs, imnting them on both sides of Li Huowang. It then stabbed its smoking cherry wood sword into the ground.


    As the ck smoke drained into the ground, a ritual circle appeared with Li Huowang at the center. The circle was written in a curiousnguage.


    As soon as he saw what was happening, Li Huowang knew that he needed to run. Thus, he instantly tried to escape from the circle.


    When the Daoist Human Xiao saw what Li Huowang was doing, it instantly made a few seals with its hands. In response, the ck gs beside Li Huowang shot upward and stabbed into his feet, pinning him onto the ground.


    With this, Li Huowang felt as if his legs were welded to the ground. He could not escape no matter what he did. At the same time, he also realized that the ck gs had also sealed away his power to shift his body.


    Seeing that Li Huowang was trapped, the other Human Xiaos also unleashed their attacks. All of them threw various talismans, glutinous rice, and bronze coins toward Li Huowang.


    Li Huowang did his best to block the iing attacks with his sword, but his body was soon covered in wounds caused by the hail of objects.


    Forced to the brink, Li Huowang fished out his flint and snarled as he tried to light up his skin.


    Since this mission had been entrusted to Tuoba Danqing, he knew that it wouldnt be so simple. Thus, it was only natural for Li Huowang to be fighting against these dangerous enemies. Even though it was extremely painful to sacrifice his skin to Ba-Hui, he had no intention of backing down. He had already prepared himself for the possibility of death during this mission.


    When the Daoist Human Xiao saw that Li Huowang wanted to do something, it quickly took the ck horse-tail whisk from its neck and performed a finger seal on it. Immediately, the soft fibers of the horsetail whisk turned hard and became like a halberd. Then, the Daoist Human Xiao threw it toward Li Huowang.


    Just as Li Huowang lit up his left hand, the sharp de chopped his entire hand off.


    The Daoist Human Xiao once again started chanting, causing the de to fly back to it, this time with Li Huowangs left arm.


    When it saw that Li Huowang no longer had the flint, the Daoist Human Xiao grinned and leaped upward as it shed its de down toward Li Huowangs head. At the same time, several purple talismans were attached to the de, causing it to start smoking. In an instant, the de exuded an incredible aura that could oppress anything and everything.


    Li Huowang didnt know if he could take it, but given the situation, he had no choice but to try. Thus, he raised his bronze coin sword. At the critical moment, Li Huowang remembered the fragmented words of the ck Taisui and muttered, What are you talking about?


    Seeing the de closing on him, Li Huowang roared and used both hands to hold his bronze coin sword. The pain and the adrenaline from being so close to death made him look like a maniac.


    Open!


    Li Huowang directly cut his body in half, instantly himself simr to Jin Shanzhaos illusion.


    Immediately, ck tentacles burst forth from below his torso along with his blood. The tentacles tensed up for a moment before jumping upward, allowing Li Huowang to avoid the Daoist Human Xiaos de altogether.


    The de then swept past his lower body and crashed heavily into the ground.


    <em>Bam!</em>


    The entire cave shook as stctites started to fall from the ceiling. At the same time, ck smoke spread everywhere, causing everything it touched to start decaying.


    Thankfully Li Huowang managed to avoid it or he wouldve died.


    Meanwhile, the Daoist Human Xiao stood up from the ground and looked at its ruined horse-tail whisk. Then, it snarled at the enemy that had dodged its attack with such a bizarre method.


    At this moment, Li Huowangs body was cut in half, but ck tentacles had sprouted from underneath his torso. The ck tentacles were lifting him up, as if he was some half-human and half-octopus monstrosity.


    The Daoist Human Xiao saw that Li Huowangs body was practically torn in half, but his internal organs did not fall out. Only blood flowed down through the tentacles. As it stared at the half-man and half-octopus monster, the Daoist Human Xiao realized that it had met a formidable foe.


    After a moment, the Daoist Human Xiao quickly took a cherry wood sword from one of its disciples and swung it around before pointing it toward the ground and picking up a ck talisman with the tip.


    On one side was the half-man, half-octopus Li Huowang holding a bronze coin sword that was sewn together with red threads.


    On the other side was the Daoist Human Xiao with its twisted limbs and elongated fingernails holding onto a cherry wood sword with a ck talisman on its tip.


    As they watched all this unfold, the remaining old people that were still alive felt as if their souls were about to leave their bodies. What what is this


    Li Huowang red at the Daoist Human Xiao with his bloodshot eyes. All of the problems, from the stolen babies to the other Human Xiaos, all originated from the Daoist Human Xiao. As long as he got rid of it, all the problems here would be solved for good.


    Forward!


    Hearing themand, the ck Taisui immediately started moving and rushed straight toward the Daoist Human Xiao.


    The Daoist Human Xiao was also not afraid and directly ran toward Li Huowang with its disciples.


    In such a fight where death was just a hairs breadth away, the ck Taisui dared not do anything on its own. After all, its life was tied to Li Huowangs life. If Li Huowang died, then it would die as well.


    Meanwhile, Li Huowang chanted and transformed his bronze coin sword into a long whip which he used to restrain the Daoist Human Xiaos cherry wood sword.


    Just as the bronze coin sword and the cherry wood sword came into contact with each other, a crackling sound rang out. It was as if both weapons were rejecting each other.


    When he saw that the Daoist Human Xiao had its weapon neutralized, Li Huowang threw aside the bronze coin sword and used his steel sword to cut open his stomach, shaving off a massive piece of flesh and skin that had just regrown.


    Then, he threw the piece of skin and flesh into the air. Instantly, it expanded and flew toward the group of Human Xiao like a.


    Meanwhile, the Daoist Human Xiao somehow seemed to know where Li Huowangs weakness was. It roared out some orders and the other Human Xiaos immediately scattered. Then, all of them surrounded Li Huowang.


    Li Huowang was fighting alone while the Daoist Human Xiao had numbers on its side. Thus, it was an excellent strategy; Li Huowang couldnt possibly fight so many of them at once.


    At that moment, a sword with the motif of Taichi was suddenly stabbed toward Li Huowang. However, instead of dodging it, he crashed right into the sword.


    The sharp sword stabbed straight into his brain and popped out from the back of his head.


    But, there was no blood!


    What the sword had stabbed was Li Huowangs illusion! His real body was invisible and was three meters away!
