Chapter 337: The Sacred Artifact that Controls the Dark Shadow
The host left this in advance?
Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Before he left, his expression was clearly grim. How could he leave such a thing behind and instruct the monks in the temple?
Logically speaking, the abbot went out to look for supplies partly because there really wasn't enough food left in the temple, and partly because of what Master Qin said at that time, right?
But there is no time for them to think so much for the time being.
Gu Chaoxi took the Buddhist beads and peach wood sword from the host's hands, and handed the peach wood sword to Pei Yan.
He nodded, gripped the hilt of the sword and looked outside.
"I just have to give it a try."
The two of them walked towards the door of the main hall together, and Pei Yan clenched the peach wood sword in his hand.
The sword body was glowing with golden light, and the runes that emerged from it were like a vine, circling around the sword body, making people marvel at the sight.
Looking at the string of Buddhist beads in Gu Chaoxi's hand, it had gradually begun to change as she walked.
The original string of Buddhist beads was now emitting golden light, and a golden word appeared on each Bodhi seed.
Put together, it seems to be some kind of exorcism spell.
However, Gu Chaoxi still didn’t quite understand the specific effect, but Qin Wei behind her saw it clearly, raised her hand to her lips and shouted at her.
"Little cutie! Just wrap the beads around your wrist and hit it with your fist!"
That is used to ward off evil spirits and suppress evil spirits!
Qin Wei had seen it before.
Hearing this, Gu Chaoxi wrapped the Buddhist beads around his right wrist as he walked.
The long string of Buddhist beads was wrapped around her wrist seven times, and these seven circles were just enough to bind her wrist tightly.
She moved her arms to make sure the beads would not fall, then raised her eyes to look at the helpless and furious black figure standing outside the main hall.
That's right, the tentacles stretched out by the black shadow tried to hit the main hall several times, but were blocked by an invisible barrier.
Every time the barrier blocked the shadow's attack, it would emit a faint golden light.
Gu Chaoxi thought that this might be because of the gods and Buddhas enshrined in the temple.
In addition, the main hall is the main place for pilgrims to worship, and the incense is much more popular than other side halls.
Therefore, the main hall can get the greatest protection, which is why they all need to stay in the main hall to be safe.
However, any kind of protection has a time limit and a maximum endurance. If this black shadow continues to grow, it is hard to say whether the barrier of the main hall can still protect them in the end.
Therefore, the best way is to get rid of this shadow before it becomes stronger.
Pei Yan was also staring at the dark shadow outside at this time, and slowly raised the peach wood sword in his hand.
As if receiving some inspiration, the golden runes that were originally rotating along the sword body began to expand their range, and it was like a huge barrier surrounding Pei Yan.
It seems that the best weapon is when the magic weapon is combined with the person.
Gu Chaoxi slowly raised his right hand, and his clenched fist was now surrounded by a faint golden light.
As she moves, a little golden wave will remain in the air, and then disappear in one or two seconds.
She raised her left hand to touch it, and the ripples left in the air had a hint of warmth.
It seems that for the black shadow, the pain should be like a burn, right?
"Chao Xi!"
Pei Yan called out softly and turned his head towards her.
She nodded and looked back at him firmly: "I understand."
The two men, one on the left and one on the right, rushed forward at the same time when the black shadow raised its huge tentacles again and slapped towards the main hall.
Just like that, he stepped out of the main hall.
As the peach wood sword got closer to the black shadow, it became brighter and brighter. Even the runes floating on it seemed to sense the evil spirit and began to tremble and even get hot.
Pei Yan did not hesitate and swung his sword towards the middle of the black shadow's tentacles.
As for Gu Chaoxi, the moment she rushed out of the main hall, she faced the black shadow, jumped up and punched it down without mercy.
However, unlike what she expected of sinking into something soft and sticky, a hole appeared in the middle the moment her fist touched the black shadow.
The entire black shadow trembled because of the pain.
Gu Chaoxi's arm also pierced the black shadow's body, and the hole did not heal.
Taking this opportunity, Gu Chaoxi saw clearly the hole he had dug. Its cross-section was actually not as wide as he had imagined.
In other words, this black shadow only looks tall, strong and thick from the front, but it is actually very thin from the sides.
The black shadow seemed angry and roared with his body raised.
The severed tentacle fell to the ground, and instantly seemed to be burned by fire. With a sizzling sound, it turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared.
And on that piece of land, only a black mark was left.
The remaining tentacle on the right slapped towards Gu Chaoxi fiercely.
Fortunately, she had already recovered from the shock. She jumped to the side easily, rolled on the ground, and stood up leisurely.
The black shadow missed his target and became even more annoyed.
However, Pei Yan had already gone around the side and behind the black shadow.
The area behind seemed to be a blind spot in the black shadow's vision. Later on, the black shadow's attack target mainly became Gu Chaoxi.
Upon realizing this, Pei Yan immediately raised the peach wood sword in his hand and stabbed the black shadow.
As the black shadow trembled all over, he basically confirmed that this thing's eyes could only see the front of its body, and the back was its weak point.
Gu Chaoxi curled his lips, this would make things much easier.
However, at this moment, because the black shadow couldn't hit the person behind it, the tentacle on the right actually split into three, all attacking Gu Chaoxi.
She didn't panic, she just dodged them one by one and occasionally punched back.
Every time the thing was hit by her fist, it screamed and groaned, but it became more and more angry and helpless.
"Ayan, cut off his tentacles!"
After noticing that the tentacle on the left could not differentiate into new ones after being cut off, she knew that this thing was severely restrained by the holy weapon.
As long as you use the peach wood sword to cut off the other side, it will lose the ability to attack.
When Gu Chaoxi jumped to the right again, Pei Yan took advantage of the moment when the black shadow retracted its tentacles and chopped him down directly.
He swung the sword near the root of the entire tentacle, so the three tentacles fell from the air almost at the same time.
Gu Chaoxi turned his body to avoid the falling tentacles and watched them disappear, leaving only a dark mark on the ground.
The black shadow groaned, and a little green light slowly emerged from its huge body.
Then everyone saw that two eyes slowly emerged from the upper part of the black shadow.
Although they are called eyes, they are actually not prepared.
There were just two round depressions with a green light coming out of them, and there seemed to be green mucus slowly flowing out of them.
However, the mucus did not flow onto the ground, but was wrapped up by the black shadow again.
It really makes people feel nauseous when looking at it.
