Chapter 694: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 66
Pudu Cihang's power was too great. Yan Chixia and Master Baiyun were unable to resist and were knocked away by him. They then fell heavily to the ground, holding their chests and crying out in pain.
"Ouch! I didn't expect this old centipede to be so strong. My bones are about to break!" Yan Chixia rubbed his chest and looked at Master Baiyun who was also lying on the ground. Seeing blood at the corner of his mouth, he asked worriedly, "Old monk, are you okay?"
"Ouch..." Master Baiyun was a mage who was proficient in Buddhism but not in martial arts. He was hit unexpectedly and felt as if his entire internal organs were broken and the pain was so severe that he couldn't get up.
Hearing Yan Chixia's question, Master Baiyun was so proud that he endured the pain and said that he was fine.
"..." Yan Chixia glanced at the blood at the corner of Master Baiyun's mouth, thinking that this old monk was still being stubborn even after being hit and vomiting blood. However, in order not to hurt Master Baiyun's self-esteem, he finally swallowed those words back into his stomach.
Although he had only known Master Baiyun for a few days, Yan Chixia had understood Master Baiyun's personality. He could sum it up in one sentence: "He is kind-hearted and hates evil. He dreams of exterminating all demons, but at the same time he is too obsessed with saving face to live in misery."
As he spoke, Pudu Cihang did not give them any time to react. After hitting them, he quickly burrowed into the ground and then rushed out towards the two people on the ground. Yan Chixia was a martial artist and was already strong and healthy. Although he was still painful from the previous collision, it did not affect his movements. He quickly jumped away and called back the Xuan-Yuan Sword.
Master Baiyun in the hall had poor physical condition and was unable to avoid the impact of Pudu Cihang. Now he was lying on the ground, gasping for breath weakly and unable to move. Fortunately, all the monsters near the altar were killed by Yan Chixia and Ruyi who arrived later, otherwise Master Baiyun would have been dead if he hadn't paid attention.
Fu Qingfeng, Ning Caichen and the others had already arrived. When they arrived at the altar, they noticed Zhiqiu Yiye waiting in front of the altar and the jar placed next to him.
When Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi saw that Fu Tianchou had been harmed like this, they immediately burst into tears. They both knew that Fu Tianchou could not survive after becoming like this.
"Is it you? Is it you who caused my father to become like this?" Fu Yuechi saw Zuo Qianhu standing aside, and regardless of the wounds on his body, she pulled his collar and questioned him viciously. They remembered that Fu Tianchou was escorted to Beijing by Zuo Qianhu.
After hearing Zhiqiu Yiye's explanation, Zuo Qianhu fell into self-judgment. He had never thought about how horrible his loyalty to the emperor was in the eyes of the people, nor had he thought that one day his loyal emperor would be overthrown. When he heard Fu Yuechi's questioning, Zuo Qianhu was half dead and looked heartbroken. He did not make any excuses and only said, "Kill me."
Zhiqiu Yiye sighed and didn't want to care about these things. He had already said what he needed to say. As a cultivator, he should not be too involved in cause and effect. Everything in the world has its own destiny.
"Let's go and help!" Pudu Cihang crashed into the sky and broke through the roof of the entire sacrificial hall. Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye heard the sound and realized that the battle in the back hall had reached a critical moment, so they didn't care about Fu Qingfeng and others and ran directly to the back hall to help.
"Sword come!" With those words, Xuanyuan Sword returned to Yan Chixia's hand. Yan Chixia turned around with the sword in his hand and stabbed the giant centipede in the back. Pudu Cihang was hurt by the sword. The thousand-foot-long centipede rolled madly in the air. The shrieking sound immediately resounded throughout the capital city, making people's heads hurt. Even Zhiqiu Yiye and others outside the palace could not escape.
Ruyi looked up at the black and red centipede in the air, and felt goose bumps all over her body. It is said that the smaller the animals in nature, the cuter they are. This centipede is so big, not only has legs all over its body, but also has faint patterns on the back of each body segment. If you look closely, those patterns look like a magic eye, so dense that it is scary.
"Thousand-eyed centipede?!" Zhiqiu Yiye recognized the old centipede's true form at once, but he couldn't quite believe it. According to legend, the Thousand-eyed centipede is also called the Hundred-eyed God, a type of centipede that became a god tens of millions of years ago. This change was not from its bloodline, but a magical power that was born out of thousands of hard training. Logically speaking, the spiritual energy in the world is thin and mixed with evil spirits, and no monster has been able to cultivate such magical powers.
Ruyi thought carefully about the information she knew about the Thousand-Eyed Centipede, and could only think of the Hundred-Eyed God in Journey to the West. Then, she compared the former with the large centipede with patterns on its back, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "No, he is not the Thousand-Eyed Centipede."
“It should just be some kind of pattern.” In Journey to the West, the Hundred-Eyed God has hundreds of golden eyes on his chest, which can release hundreds of thousands of golden lights at the same time to trap Sun Wukong. In the end, Sun Wukong had to transform into a pangolin and burrow into the ground to escape.
"Then what are these patterns for? I've never seen a centipede that looks like this. No wonder he is so powerful and can pretend to be a monk..." Zhiqiu Yiye was a little emotional, and he and Ruyi pointed at the big centipedes flying in the sky and discussed in a low voice.
He was fighting hard with Pudu Cihang here, while Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye were just watching the fun. Yan Chixia on the back of the centipede was so angry that he almost laughed, "You two are still chatting! Why don't you come and help!"
Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye looked at each other and flew into the sky. Ruyi blocked the giant centipede's head directly and stabbed its eyes with two enhanced golden sword techniques. The giant centipede was too big to dodge and could only wail in pain while opening its two big fangs and biting towards Ruyi like a big pair of pliers.
Without waiting for Ruyi to dodge, Zhiqiu Yiye stepped forward and pushed Ruyi away, "I'm here! The immobilization spell!" He put his four fingers together, bent his thumb and clapped his palm. A flipping golden spell appeared and flew towards the giant centipede's forehead. Then it flashed, and the whole centipede froze and stopped in the air.
Yan Chixia took the opportunity to inject his cultivation into the giant centipede's body, just like he did when he dealt with the Black Mountain Old Demon's clone before. However, the giant centipede's cultivation was too high, and Zhi Qiu Yiye's immobilization spell was not of a high enough level. The giant centipede only stopped for three breaths before resuming its movement.
Fortunately, Ruyi was quick to pull Zhiqiu Yiye, who was still complacent, aside, otherwise Zhiqiu Yiye, who was standing right in front of the giant centipede's head, would have been cut off by the pair of huge pincers.
"It was a close call, senior, thank you." Zhiqiu Yiye was terrified.
Ruyi rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "Zhi Qiu Yiye, you should be more careful." Zhi Qiu Yiye was good in every way except his careless personality and his complacency and pride once he succeeded. Ruyi felt that if he continued to be like this, he would die at the hands of a monster sooner or later.
Next was Yan Chixia's home court. Ruyi assisted from the side and used thunderbolts from time to time to consume Pudu Cihang's energy and attract hatred for Yan Chixia. The young monk Shifang brought the golden Buddha to find Master Baiyun, fed the injured Master Baiyun medicine, and put down his worries when he saw that Master Baiyun's breath had stabilized.
"Master, I'm glad you're okay."
"Shifang, go and get back my staff!" Master Baiyun had put down his staff while chanting Buddhist scriptures. Now he was a coward without a weapon in his hand. Seeing Yan Chixia and the others fighting against monsters, Master Baiyun couldn't lie down. He had to get back his weapon and fight!
