Chapter 320 Lantern Staff The monster ran very fast and climbed over a mountain in a flash. Only the fox, running between the treetops and the sky, like an ancient totem revered by ancient people, could catch up with him. Lin Jue was about to take out another magic pill when he suddenly heard a rumbling tremor in the forest, accompanied by a sentence: "Go this way!" When I turned around, I saw a little ghost in brown clothes appeared on the top of the mountain on the left. The little ghost had a serious and meticulous face. He floated among the woods, pointing his finger at Lin Jue below. He did not move, and did not come to look for Lin Jue. There was a constant rumbling sound from the rear. Another egret flew leisurely overhead. It was not until two stone horses crashed out of the forest with a loud bang, and the dust and fallen leaves splashed onto Chen Niu's body, that it disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already beside Lin Jue, covered in dust. It was patting the non-existent dust off its face while staring at the two stone horses. It wasn't until the stone horse reached Lin Jue that it showed an expression of relief and happiness. “Found it!”
The little ghost suddenly disappeared. "Thank you. Thank you." Lin Jue thanked the place where the little ghost disappeared and the stone horse respectively, then picked one and climbed on it, "Please help me chase the monster in front." The stone horse turned around without hesitation and galloped in that direction. The gravel in the mountains was trampled deeply into the soil, and the large stones were directly crushed. The stone horse trampled the grass along the way, knocked through the woods, and crossed mountains and ridges, chasing the monster in front. Lin Jue sat on the stone horse, feeling the constant bumps in his body, the wind whistling in his ears, and the branches and leaves of the trees on both sides blowing towards him quickly. He could only follow the method developed by his junior sister, lying on the stone horse's back, clamping his legs together, and tightening his hands, and then he turned into a stone sculpture. From time to time, he would choose a quiet moment and turn his head back to human form to take a look at the situation ahead. Although the monster in front has human form, it runs faster than the stone horse. Fortunately, he is not as fast as Fuyao. The fox often attacked it from the side or back, spitting out either the blazing solar spirit fire, or the cold air or stone-sealed air that could slow it down, forcing it to be distracted to deal with it. Sometimes the fox was even bold enough to intercept it from the front, fighting with it for a while, and then breaking away without getting entangled. Lin Jue slowly followed. With a thought, the sword flew out of his sleeve. "Sui Su Su Su..." There was a sharp and subtle sound of breaking through the air. The monster was rolling to the side holding the lantern, avoiding the cold air exhaled by the fox above its head. It neither looked at the fox nor at the frosty grass where the cold air reached, but it seemed to be able to see a dozen flying swords shooting at it from behind. Before it stood up, it flashed to the side again. At the same time, swing the lantern backwards. The fox was still in the sky and looked down. It could clearly see that the monster had dodged most of the flying swords, but the remaining three were hit by its swung lantern. "when!" The three flying swords collided with the lantern one after another, splashing a few sparks that were not easy to detect during the day. Then the lantern was hit and shook, and many sparks were scattered. The sparks fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of hot white smoke.
The monster stood up quickly, holding the lantern, and blew it hard at Lin Jue behind him. "call!" Not good! Fossil method! Lin Jue immediately turned into stone again. Sparks were seen flowing like a river, rushing towards Lin Jue, and hitting the stone horse with the wind, outlining the contours of the stone horse and the Taoist priest, and also making many black spots on their bodies. The other stone horse, which had no one on board, had already gone around from the other side and crashed directly into the monster. The fox saw the monster swinging the lantern with all his strength again. The stick, which was much longer than an ordinary lantern, and the thick iron chain and cast iron lantern were swung almost in a circle and hit the stone horse directly on the head. There was a loud bang! Such a huge and heavy stone horse was actually knocked flying by its brute force. But at this time the flying sword began to buzz again. When the fox saw this, it immediately looked towards its own Taoist priest, and indeed saw that he had changed from the appearance of stone to one made of flesh, but when it quickly retracted its gaze and looked at the monster, several flying swords spun wildly and hit it directly, covering a large area. "hiss!" No matter how hard the monster dodged, it still had several more wounds on its body and was gasping in pain. In its anxiety, it became more ferocious, swinging the lantern with all its might to knock away several flying swords, then fled forward. The fox's eyes were bright and it slowly descended. As soon as its four feet touched the ground, it jumped lightly and turned into a white shadow, swimming forward with the wind. Unexpectedly, the monster turned around and spit out another long river of thick black smoke that was so thick that it could not be dissolved, and it directly wrapped it up. The next moment, the Taoist rode on a stone horse and stepped over the place where the monster had stood before. The man and the fox were separated by some distance. When they passed through the black smoke, the monster had disappeared. "Where did you go?" Lin Jue and the fox looked left and right. "Ah~" A heron cry was heard overhead. "Thank you!" Lin Jue immediately pointed in a direction: "Go this way!" The stone horse immediately raised its hooves. The fox glanced at him and quickly chased in that direction. Before long, the fox caught up with the monster again, breathing cold air from its mouth behind it, and when it rolled over to avoid it, it stretched out its claws to grab it. If it saw the monster turning around, it would immediately stop and lean back to avoid the cast iron lantern thrown from its hand. Under its harassment, Lin Jue quickly caught up. However, this monster actually has some ability to save its life and has managed to escape again and again.
Although Fellow Daoist Bai Lu was watching from the sky, and the fox later found an opportunity to leave its claw marks on it, it could no longer escape the group's pursuit, but was getting further and further away. I don't know if I ran dozens or a hundred miles before I came to a steep cliff. Lin Jue chanted a spell quickly. The mountain is falling! "what!" The monster's body was unstable for a moment, and he fell to the ground, rolling forward with the lantern. At the same time, the flying sword hummed again. The monster reacted very quickly. He slapped the ground with his withered left hand with sharp claws. Unbelievable strength was exerted, but even with the weight of a mountain pressing down on him, his entire body was able to fly into the air. The flying sword arrived in an instant, shot to the place where it had originally rolled, and penetrated deep into the grass. But this is only half of it. There was still half of the flying sword spinning in the air, and when he was unable to gain leverage in the sky, it suddenly slashed towards him. The monster was immediately startled and tried to use force to exhale to gain wind, but he only moved himself a few feet to the side. Two or three flying swords spun rapidly and immediately passed through it. "Hiss!" The monster couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and glared at the Taoist priest who was riding a horse in the distance. It even felt that this was what the Taoist priest had counted for well. But before it hit the ground, the flying sword that had been stuck into the ground emerged from the soil again and shot up into the sky. This Taoist doesn't give me a way to survive! The monster gritted his teeth, flipped his whole body in the sky, swung the lantern in one hand, and used the other hand to make a claw to slap the flying sword. However, I heard a Taoist say—— "Certainly!" The monster felt his body stiffen and he was stunned for a moment. Just a brief moment. In that instant, the opportunity was lost. "Pfft!" The flying sword was reforged with the addition of gold essence and refined by Lin Jue, making it extremely sharp. However, when it pierced its withered body, it was like an ordinary sword piercing into hard wood, and only penetrated less than an inch. The monster fell to the ground with a bang and rolled forward. How could Lin Jue let go of this opportunity? He swung his left sleeve and threw a few rocks at the monster. At the same time, he stared at it and used all his strength to call upon and control the flying sword. After being refined, these flying swords seemed to have some mysterious connection with him. Not only could they move and control their power more flexibly according to his wishes, but even when he was in a hurry, they seemed to be able to feel his emotions and resonate with him, bursting out greater power to help him. The monster was already covered in blood, relying only on its skills and terrifying vitality to hold on. Even though it was still very aware of the stone flying swords attacking it, it still tried its best to find gaps to dodge, but this body could no longer do what it wanted.
"Pfft!" A flying sword pierced its left shoulder, causing it to tremble all over. Immediately, several more flying swords shot out and hit its abdomen, left chest and throat respectively. Before it could feel the pain, several more flying swords spun into a full moon in the air and cut straight towards it. “A hundred years of cultivation! Ruined by your hands! This hatred must be avenged!” The monster gritted his teeth and screamed in pain, his voice trembling, but he still didn’t look at Lin Jue when he shouted. "I advise you to frown..." Lin Jue thought it was chanting some spell and was about to interrupt it, but when he heard it later, he realized it was just a harsh remark. However, he was not stingy with his magic power and persuasion. But this is of no use to this monster. On the cliff, there were already several flying swords piercing the monster's body, and more flying swords were spinning, reflecting the skylight, flashing in the air, and cutting into its body. When the voices of the man and the demon fell to the ground, it had already fallen to the ground. The fox in the distance tilted its head and looked at the monster. But in the next moment, an afterimage quickly emerged from the monster's body, like a gust of black wind, and flew into the cliff in front. The fox's expression froze and he immediately chased after it. Lin Jue frowned. "Forget it! Stop chasing me!" "..." The fox had clearly jumped off the cliff and was stretching its body in the air, but when it heard his voice, its slender and elegant body turned around with the wind and jumped back. "Hey?" The fox tilted his head and looked at him. "We can't catch up. We've chased too far. If we continue, we'll reach the Leopard King's lair." The Taoist and the stone horse stopped at the edge of the cliff and pushed down a few stones. The dull pain from his injuries made him realize that it would be more and more dangerous if he continued chasing. "Don't chase a desperate enemy, for fear of change." "Touch your mouth?" "Yes……" Lin Jue rode his horse forward and arrived next to the monster. looked down- The monster's originally dark, thin and withered body had shrunk for some reason. Several flying swords were nailed to its body, and several more were embedded in it. The cast iron lantern fell next to its hand. "You and I will definitely meet again! And your king!" Lin Jue raised his head and shouted towards the cliff in front of him, "See you later!" The sound passed through the mountains and forests and drifted towards the cliff. Lin Jue lowered his head again and looked at the fox sitting next to him. He raised his paw and wiped his mouth continuously. He then looked at the lantern and stretched out his hand. The lantern automatically flew up and fell into his hand. The lantern pole feels cool to the touch, but not heavy. It looks like both wood and metal.
But the "lantern" is very heavy. This lantern was indeed more like the top of a stone lantern in a palace garden, like a pavilion, made of pure metal, with large and small grids around it, and a little fire inside. Holding it in the hand, it was like holding a staff connected to a lantern, or a huge chain hammer in the shape of a lantern, and the monster sometimes really used it as a chain hammer. This seems to be its important magic weapon. "wrong……" Lin Jue suddenly frowned. When I held this lantern, there seemed to be some afterimages in my eyes. It’s like there are two overlapping pictures in front of my eyes. Lin Jue suddenly closed his eyes. This was a surprising discovery - As long as you hold this lantern, even with your eyes closed, you can still see the image of the world around you. And when he turned his head, the picture turned with him. He didn't even turn his head, but just used his mind to change the direction, with his eyes closed and his head facing forward, but he could still see the scenes on the left, right and behind him. "I see……" No wonder the monster could see the fox and flying sword attacking from behind and the side without turning around, and no wonder he never looked at people when he spoke, it turned out that it was all because of the magic of this lantern. I'm afraid he is indeed blind. This lantern can not only be used as a chain hammer and can blow out a sky full of blazing sparks, it has other wonderful uses like this. "Ah……" Lin Jue laughed, looked down at the monster's corpse, and then looked into the distance. He said "this vengeance must be taken", but how could a blind monster, who had lost a hundred years of cultivation and also lost his most important magical weapon, come to seek revenge on him? "I'll go look for you." Lin Jue looked at the fox who was still wiping his mouth, said "Burn it", and asked the stone horse to go back. There was a sound of surging flames behind him.
