"Woof woof!"
The sound of Mantou's bark interrupted Li Huowang's thoughts. He turned his head to see Mantou heading into the darkness on one side.
"Taoist, go after it! This dog just smelled what you're looking for!" The monk's hallucination reminded him with concern.
"Black Tai Sui?" Li Huowang glanced at him and hurriedly followed, limping. The others followed suit.
Mantou became more excited as it chased through the darkness. After a few circles, Li Huowang also became excited. He smelled the scent of Black Tai Sui!
"No mistake, Black Tai Sui is nearby!" With this thought, Li Huowang's heart began to race.
Just as he was limping faster and faster, Li Huowang suddenly felt a tingling on his scalp. Instinctively, he lowered his head and a gust of wind with something wrapped in it brushed past his scalp.
"Peng!" Gao Zhijian's huge wolf-toothed club slammed into the thing, freeing Li Huowang.
When Li Huowang stood up, he found that the thing that had just attacked him had already disappeared into the darkness.
At this moment, the others approached Li Huowang, taking out various weapons and pointing them outside with vigilance.
Li Huowang, with his body tense and holding onto his sword hilt, asked Gao Zhijian beside him, "Did you see what it was just now?"
"Meat... meat... meat hook!" The tall and simple Gao Zhijian explained to Li Huowang.
"Meat hook? What else is coming? Why can't things just calm down a bit?" Li Huowang frowned, looking around the darkness.
"Did you see it?" Li Huowang turned his head to ask the monk beside Peng Longteng.
"No, I was lost in thought just now."
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
"Dadada~" A sound came from Li Huowang's left side. When everyone's weapons were pointed in that direction, they found that Mantou, with its yellowish-brown fur, had walked out from there with small steps.
With its ears pressed against its head, it turned around in place, then lifted its front paws off the ground and jumped high towards Li Huowang. "Woof!"
"Taoist, this dog is asking you why you're not following." The monk said.
Li Huowang frowned and said to the monk beside him, "Shut up, can you understand what the dog is saying?"
This startled everyone, who looked at Li Huowang in horror.
"Senior Li, please don't have an episode now. If you have one, we really won't know what to do." Gouwa looked very timid.
Li Huowang with a frown glanced at him and looked at Mantou. "Why did that thing only attack me and not Mantou?"This question was destined to go unanswered. Mantou wagged its tail and shook its head, constantly moving around in place. Judging by its impatient appearance, the thing it was looking for should be nearby.
Li Huowang glanced in the direction they had been heading and decided to continue following Mantou. They had come this far, and turning back now would be a waste of their previous efforts.
"Let's go, stay together! Don't fall behind." To avoid being ambushed, everyone formed a circle and cautiously followed Mantou.
Of course, due to the previous incident, Li Huowang didn't forget to keep an eye on what was above them.
When Mantou saw its master move, it jumped and sniffed the ground with its black nose all the way.
For the next few hours, neither the meat hooks that had attacked Li Huowang earlier nor the strange lion dance had appeared, which was abnormal in the quiet environment.
But this situation made them feel particularly agonized. In this dim and oppressive environment, everyone's spirits were tense, and cold sweat slowly dripped down their faces.
"Shh, stop! We found it!" Li Huowang exclaimed excitedly, looking at the chaotic and twisted tentacles in the darkness in the distance.
Although it was still blurry, Li Huowang was sure that it was a Black Tai Sui!
The Black Tai Sui also noticed the sudden appearance of light, tentatively extending a tentacle to touch the green fluorescence.
"We finally found it." At this moment, Li Huowang's breathing even became lighter, afraid of scaring it away.
"Senior Brother Li, how do we get this thing back?" Sun Baolu leaned over and whispered.
Li Huowang looked at the thing in the darkness thoughtfully. It looked even bigger than the one at Qingfeng Temple.
"Zhi Jian, take out the chain that bound me. We need to plan an ambush."
"When we attack later, be gentle and don't kill it."
The chain slowly wrapped around the Black Tai Sui, and everyone tiptoed.
After Li Huowang nodded, Gao Zhijian, holding a wolf-toothed club, rushed over and fiercely smashed the Black Tai Sui with his weapon.
With a muffled bang, more than ten twisted, semi-transparent tentacles shot out and stabbed towards him.
At the moment when the Black Tai Sui attacked Gao Zhijian, the others leaped forward with their chains and wrapped them around it.
Meanwhile, Li Huowang, who was already prepared, also rushed out and vigorously hacked at the root of the Black Tai Sui's tentacle with his long sword.
Speaking of which, for Li Huowang and the others now, the Black Tai Sui wasn't that powerful, at least not as powerful as the lion dance from before.However, facing the lion dance, any means could be used, but it was not the case with Black Tai Sui. It had to be captured alive, which was difficult.
Too heavy or too light was not good.
Li Huowang and the others wanted to wrap the chain around it, but Black Tai Sui tried to break free from the chain and even attacked others with its tentacles.
For a moment, the two sides were entangled and the situation was very chaotic.
Li Huowang made a mistake. The tentacles of Black Tai Sui did not disappear with his chopping, but more tentacles stretched out from inside.
At this critical moment, a new movement suddenly came from their left side, and something was approaching.
"Peng! Shua!" This sound was very strange, so much so that Li Huowang couldn't imagine what could make such a sound.
"No matter what it is, I can't delay any longer! I must use Renmu Heart Temple!"
Li Huowang took a deep breath, quickly took out his dagger, and peeled off the skin around his chest.
With a strong pull, the large piece of skin in front was torn off, exposing Li Huowang's white ribs in the air.
Ignoring the pain that almost made him faint, Li Huowang threw the piece of skin, and under the effect of the Dacheng Record, the piece of bloody skin quickly expanded, tightly wrapping Black Tai Sui, no matter how the tentacles twisted and turned, it was useless.
"Let's go!" Li Huowang ignored the pain and quickly called on others to take Black Tai Sui and leave.
As they moved away from the previous location, the sound slowly disappeared.
"Senior Brother Li, you're injured again." Bai Lingmiao looked at Li Huowang's clothes gradually turning red with concern, and took out the Golden Wound Medicine from her waist, evenly sprinkling it on Li Huowang's chest.
The wound was stimulated by the medicine, and Li Huowang was in so much pain that he felt like he was dying. But when he turned his head to look at Black Tai Sui being dragged away by Gao Zhijian, he regained the motivation to live.
Li Huowang's mouth slightly curved, and with the accompany of the intense pain, he gradually laughed out loud.
This trip was not in vain, and he could finally completely isolate the illusion over there.
"Wang Wei, didn't you say that it was reality over there? Okay, after I eat Black Tai Sui, if you have the ability to pull me back over there, I'll believe you!"
Li Huowang coldly muttered to himself in the distance of the darkness.
