From Zhang Yuechen's home to Xiangjiang Bay, was roughly half an hour's journey. Chu Chi and Zhou Shen were both concerned about the Carrion Crocodile, and they ran very fast. It only took them about ten minutes to reach Xiangjiang Bay.
There were street lamps along the way, and by the time they reached Xiangjiang Bay, it was already pitch black.
Zhou Shen repeated the same trick, and when he was about to light it up with fire, Chu Chi stopped him.
The two of them secretly hid on the high ground, looking down at the bay road.
A loud sound came from the river. Someone on the shore was using a flashlight to shoot at the water, but nothing could be seen. The entire area was covered by a layer of cold fog that couldn't be dispersed.
The crows lingered nearby, not making a sound, unusually quiet.
"We have to get closer to see." Zhou Shen said.
"Don't get any closer." Chu Chi pulled him back, "Other than the Carrion Crocodile, there are still people there. He's an expert, he'll be discovered if we get any closer."
"What expert?" Zhou Shen was in a daze.
"An expert capable of challenging your Carrion Crocodile to a duel." Chu Chi said, "I wonder if it is the person who injured it previously."
"I can smell a strong scent of corpses." Zhou Shen took a whiff, "And also the fresh scent of Celestial Soul. There's more than one dead person here …"
"The dead should be the patrolling security guards. Someone doing something obviously wouldn't want them to get in the way. It's normal to get rid of them." Chu Chi said indifferently.
"You treat human life very lightly …" Zhou Shen could not help but exclaim, how old was Chu Chi, to actually disregard the lives of others.
"They will not save their lives because of my importance. "I have long since seen the fragility of life …" Chu Chi laughed indifferently, "There's too much commotion in the water. I hope both sides will suffer, no, it's best if both sides die, this way we can take advantage of each other."
Zhou Shen did not make a sound, and touched the Black Scaled Snake's corpse water on his eyes, trying his best to watch the movements in the water. Although it was still blurry, he could still vaguely see a bit.
A human figure and a large shadow were fighting desperately, and on the large shadow's body, there seemed to be two green light spots flashing. It let out a sharp hiss, spitting out a faint blue aura.
The entire surface of the water emitted faint traces of blue phosphorescence, like the dark clouds before a storm, containing lightning.
"Such a strong aura! It's a pity that we can't see the scene, it must be very spectacular! " Chu Chi couldn't see under the cover of night at all, but he felt a strong wind stirring on the surface of the water. It blew up the slope and into his clothes, causing his school uniform to flutter.
The wind carried with it the sharpness of unsheathed swords, slicing through his skin and causing him to feel a numbing sensation as if ants were biting at his wounds.
"The Carrion Crocodile was forced to use their life's corpse energy." Zhou Shen said, "I never thought that its opponent was so powerful, forcing it to spit corpse Qi."
"I said it was an expert." Chu Chi said. According to Crow's actions, he knew this point. If not for the Carrion Crocodile restraining him, he would run as far away as he could when he met someone like his.
"They used Armored Corpse to attack our Corpse Refiner." Zhou Shen carefully distinguished the different corpse auras in the air and finally obtained his answer.
Chu Chi could not help but straighten his body, "Are you sure?"
"Other than the corpse aura of the Carrion Crocodile, there was also the smell of the Armored Corpse that we met last night. However, it was a little thicker than the Armored Corpse, causing my nose to hurt. His appearance is also different from Armored Corpse. " Zhou Shen nodded. After the appearance of the Phosphorous Flame, he saw the scene behind the mist more clearly.
"Reportage comes quickly." The corner of Chu Chi's mouth rose into a smile, "Last night, he ambushed us, this debt shall be settled by him today."
"You want to ambush him?" Zhou Shen said.
Chu Chi nodded, "We will follow suit if he sits in front."
"He's dealing with Carrion Crocodile. He can be considered an evil exterminator. It's not too kind of him to do this …" Zhou Shen was a little hesitant.
"Fighting the Demons and protecting the Dao? The spirit demon is the best food for the Corpse-refining, and the corpse energy in the Carrion Crocodile is even more rich. Chu Chi almost burst out laughing. There was actually such a simple and innocent adult like Zhou Shen in this world, it seemed like he had not recovered his memories, and did not have enough understanding of this dirty world, "He acted against us for no reason, probably wanting to take over the Carrion Crocodile s for himself long ago. But in the end, they were unable to get rid of it, and thus turned back to deal with the Carrion Crocodile. "
"You're right." Zhou Shen said.
"In my opinion, there's a high chance that the Corpse Core is with this person. The thing that you and your cousin risked your life to obtain is actually given to you?" Chu Chi said.
"How do you want me to cooperate?" Zhou Shen was moved by Chu Chi.
"We need to find out where the Corpse Refiner is first." "No matter how powerful the Corpse-refining is, it is controlled by him. After getting rid of Master, the Corpse-refining will become a pile of bones!"
Zhou Shen was so frightened by the killing intent in Chu Chi's words that his heart jumped. He quickly added more Black Scaled Draconic Beast's corpse water onto his eyes, turned his head and looked down the bay, trying to find the location of the Corpse Refiner.
In the darkness of the night, various kinds of corpse qi intertwined with each other, and a dense black fog gathered on the shore.
"Found it." Zhou Shen said softly.
Chu Chi whistled, and dozens of crows gathered above his head.
On the river bank, Cripple Feng looked at the water surface. Unlike ordinary people, his eyes could pierce through the darkness and see everything that was happening on the water surface.
Although he did not recognize the real body of the underwater demon, he could tell from the demonic techniques it used that it was someone who could use corpse aura.
Cripple Feng snickered in his heart: If an ordinary person were to meet him, they would definitely not have two souls left under the effects of the corpse Qi. The most powerful part of the corpse qi was that it could kill living things, and the Soldier Corpse s were all dead creatures, so even if they were sprayed with the corpse qi, they would not be harmed in the slightest.
Therefore, the only way the demon under the water could defeat the Soldier Corpse was by relying on brute force.
The Soldier Corpse s were all skillful skeletons. Although they were not as nimble as the Armored Corpse s, their strength was boundless and they were invincible.
Cripple Feng believed that in another fifteen minutes, the Soldier Corpse would be able to kill him. Once the spirit of the demon was devoured, and in addition to the corpse qi that would gather all over the body, the Soldier Corpse's strength would increase by another level!
In the Corpse Refiner, who didn't wish for the corpse that she refined to be powerful?
Thinking of this, Cripple Feng couldn't help but laugh, like a cunning and cold snake.
The Carrion Crocodile released a few mouthfuls of corpse Qi, causing the phosphorous fire on the surface of the water to fly up. It hadn't met such a difficult opponent in many years and became restless. The injuries from before hadn't completely healed yet, but it never expected that it would receive another serious injury.
Fear made it want to flee, but anger made it want to tear its opponent into pieces.
On the surface of the water, a giant alligator's head was held high, and above its head, two green eyes were shining with a cold light. It had smelt the scent of humans on the shore, and it had already understood that the person in front of it was not a living being, and the corpse Qi was of no use to it.
Wang Binn was almost paralyzed on the ground. Even though he was born into a special forces unit and had gone through a battle at the border, the battles in the secret world had completely surpassed his knowledge and experience. The entire Xiangjiang Bay was roaring, as if a gigantic beast was opening its mouth and was ready to devour his life at any moment. If not for the presence of Cripple Feng, he really wanted to escape.
A gust of wind came from behind him, causing him to subconsciously tilt his head, but he was still unable to dodge and was grabbed by the collar.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Shen lifted Wang Binn up and threw him into the water. He was just a normal person, not enough for him to kill. After clearing the obstacles, he did not even stop, and continued to advance towards his real target, the Cripple Feng.
Before Wang Binn fell into the water, he saw two figures rushing towards his Master. He had wanted to shout for warning, but he was stopped by a mouthful of cold water. In the undulating waves, he was like duckweed, unable to protect himself.
Chu Chi listened to the movements on the water surface and estimated the distance between them. He could not see the Cripple Feng and could only follow Zhou Shen as he ran, feeling extremely nervous.
"Ten meters away!" Zhou Shen reported the distance to him.
"Fire!" Chu Chi shouted.
Zhou Shen had already prepared the Black Scaled Draconic Beast's corpse water, and after activating his technique, flames rose up into the sky.
The figure of the Cripple Feng suddenly appeared in front of Chu Chi.
Chu Chi then placed his pinky in his mouth and blew on it, causing the crow to immediately rush towards Cripple Feng, flapping its wings wildly.
The Cripple Feng focused all his attention on the Soldier Corpse, controlling it to fight with the Carrion Crocodile. Zhou Shen and Chu Chi's appearance caused him to be too distracted, and the crow's speed caught him off guard.
"Despicable!" Cripple Feng waved his arms to drive away the crows and cursed.
"A reward, nothing more." Chu Chi unleashed the Fuxi Eight Diagrams Step beneath his feet. A virtual and a real figure rushed to the front of Cripple Feng, and stabbed the bronze blade in their hands into his heart.
Cripple Feng retreated a few steps and suddenly staggered. He thought to himself, not good, I didn't control the Soldier Corpse well, but it was actually hit by the Carrion Crocodile's ultimate counterattack. Its hammer-like head hit the Soldier Corpse's chest, and it was even linked to my own body.
Seeing that, Chu Chi was ecstatic, he took a step forward and unhesitatingly handed the bronze blade over.
When Cripple Feng saw the thick killing intent in Chu Chi's eyes, he extended his hand to grab at the air, only to see the shadow dissipate. Chu Chi's real body was hidden behind the shadow.
It was too late for Cripple Feng to grab him again.
When the bronze blade pierced his palm, Cripple Feng cried out in pain. A stream of black gas was ejected from his mouth.
