………………

For the past two months, Shi Mu was settled by Yan Luo in this valley to practice.

After Yan Luo brought him here, he left without a trace after urging the Falling Immortal Platform to release a layer of invisible energy on him.

Even if Shi Mu tried to contact him, there was no response at all.

Thanks to the invisible energy of the Falling Immortal Platform, he can now move freely here without worrying about the erosion of the dead spirit breath. I think Yan Luo figured out the wonderful use of the Falling Immortal Platform.

During this period, Cai'er contacted Shi Mu through her mind. After learning about his situation, she clamored to follow.

But when Shi Mu vividly described the desolate scene of the dead spirit interface full of corpses, she immediately changed her words and said that she would guard the house and manage the family property for Shi Mu, and she would never follow him.

Just as Shi Mu put away the Ruyi stick in his hand and wanted to take a breath, a clear and pleasant voice came from not far away.

"Your move is quite powerful, and it is barely enough to deal with some ordinary people."

Shi Mu looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a silver figure floating down from the side of the valley not far away. It was Yan Luo.

At this time, she had put on her military uniform again, with a silver bright armor covering her body, but she did not wear a helmet or visor. Her hair was tied up high, and she looked less charming, but more heroic.

"The opponent I am about to face is not an ordinary person. His real strength is definitely not below the middle stage of the heavenly position. It is not easy to win without using the mysterious skills. By the way, where have you been during this time?" Shi Mu said as he looked at Yan Luo who was walking towards him.

"Follow me."

Yan Luo did not answer Shi Mu. After leaving a word, she turned into a silver light and flew away.

Seeing this, Shi Mu had to turn into a red light and follow Yan Luo.

Along the way, Yan Luo seemed to be very familiar with the surrounding environment, and the undead creatures encountered along the way were frightened by the breath emitted by Yan Luo and avoided him.

Half an hour later, two rays of light, one silver and one red, descended one after another and landed on the edge of a huge circular pit with a radius of about a mile.

The huge pit was filled with purple mist, and the situation inside could not be seen clearly. Only protruding sharp boulders could be vaguely seen.

"Where is this..." Shi Mu asked.

Before he finished speaking, he felt a strong force coming from behind, and his whole body came to mid-air and fell directly into the pit. At the same time, Yan Luo's voice came to his ears:

"This is the nest of the Snake Dog Ghost King."

Shi Mu was slightly startled when he heard the words, and then smiled bitterly. He had already held the Ruyi Stick in his hand, and the fire wings behind him flashed.

However, Yan Luo's push was so strong that he could only stabilize his body when he was less than ten feet away from the ground below.

The whirlwind brought by his wings slightly cleared the purple fog near him.

However, after only a moment, the purple fog spread again.

As soon as the purple fog spread, Shi Mu felt his skin numb, and then he felt a strange itch, and subconsciously wanted to scratch it with his hands.

But then, he thought of something, and quickly retracted his hand, and then a flash of fire flashed on his body, and circles of red flames wrapped around his left arm, and then wrapped his whole body in it.

At the same time, with golden light flashing around his body, golden scales covered his whole body.

Around him, the purple fog was burned by the flames, and suddenly made a "sizzling" sound, and white smoke came out.

At this moment, Shi Mu suddenly felt a wave of spiritual power coming from the left front, and with his eyes shining with golden light, he saw the purple fog on his left side rolling violently.

"Not good!" Shi Mu's heart trembled.

The next moment, a huge purple figure rushed out and pounced on him.

It was a giant monster dog that was thirty feet in size!

The giant dog's eyes showed a turbid white color, and its skin was purple and covered with palm-sized sores. From time to time, some purple-black mucus dripped out of it, falling on the ground with a hissing sound.

"Snake Dog Ghost King!"

Shi Mu remembered Yan Luo's previous words, and suddenly a flash of realization flashed in his eyes.

The Snake Dog Ghost King flew up with four legs, stretched out his claws, and pounced towards Shi Mu with his bloody mouth wide open.

Shi Mu lowered his body and landed under the giant dog's belly, then rolled up the Ruyi long stick in his hand and suddenly stabbed upwards.

"Huh!"

A white tornado suddenly appeared and hit the giant dog's belly directly, and a huge force knocked it into the air.

Shi Mu was about to stand up and give the giant dog another stick, when he saw a "tail" as thick as a bucket suddenly stretched out from the giant dog's buttocks and whipped him directly.

He immediately raised his stick to hit it, but saw that the thick tail turned flexibly, bypassed the black long stick, and rolled towards his body.

Shi Mu was shocked and quickly turned the stick to block the tail.

"Snap"!

The thick tail hit the Ruyi iron stick directly, and a huge force came from the stick, making Shi Mu's arms numb and almost unable to hold the weapon in his hand.

Shi Mu turned the stick with his arms, swung it down with all his strength, and hit the giant tail directly.

The giant tail was like a broken bone, and it was bent straight from the middle, and the tail end stretched towards Shi Mu.

There was a light "puff" sound!

Two purple lights suddenly lit up at the end of the giant tail, and a large mouth opened below, from which a purple mist spurted out. It was a thick python.

Shi Mu was caught off guard and was sprayed on the face by the purple mist, and immediately felt a burning sensation on his face.

Fortunately, he closed his eyes in time at the last moment, urging the fire mist to protect his face and block most of the poisonous mist.

He moved his arm, and the black light of the Ruyi stick in his hand flashed, sweeping from left to right. A black stick shadow cut through the void, making a terrifying and piercing scream.

"Sweep the army!"

Then, regardless of whether he hit the giant tail or not, he stepped back with his feet.

Shi Mu swept his consciousness and found that although the golden scales on his face showed signs of corrosion, fortunately they were not completely penetrated, so he was slightly relieved.

However, in this case, he did not dare to open his eyes, so he had to send out his consciousness to feel the position of the snake-dog ghost king.

"Those who dare to trespass into my territory will die!" The Snake Dog Ghost King suddenly spoke in human language.

Shi Mu's heart trembled. Although he could not see, he could clearly feel the airflow around him, which was constantly gathering towards the Snake Dog Ghost King.

Obviously, this beast was accumulating power for some kind of magical power!

Shi Mu would naturally not sit and wait for death. He suddenly danced the black long stick in his hand, and white airflows began to entangle and gather, and pieces of black stick shadows began to cover. Strong airflows began to gather around him, like ferocious beasts being bound under Shi Mu's iron stick.

And just opposite him, countless purple mists gathered into a huge vortex, shrinking directly into the bloody mouth of the Snake Dog Ghost King, and gradually formed a purple mist ball.

Shi Mu urged the Ruyi stick in his hand while paying close attention to the movements around him.

Suddenly, the purple mist in the huge pit disappeared, and it was all sucked into the mouth of the Snake Dog Ghost King, revealing countless eerie white bones on the ground.

At this moment, a purple light suddenly lit up in the white eyeballs of the Snake Dog Ghost King, and the purple mist in his mouth suddenly burst out, attacking Shi Mu with a force of ten thousand pounds.

Wherever it passed, it set off a strange force that was enough to distort the space, and countless rock fragments and white bones and limbs around were sucked into it and disappeared.

"Come on!"

Shi Mu shouted in a low voice, and the black long stick in his hand flew up and down, and in an instant he performed the Eight-style Tongtian Stick Technique.

"Roar!"

With a long roar like thunder, countless white gas masses surged out like roaring beasts, merging into a torrent and rushing towards the purple mist ball.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the first tiger to bear the brunt of the airflow crashed into the purple mist ball with great momentum, and it collapsed with a bang.

The purple mist ball continued to charge towards Shi Mu with unabated momentum.

"Bang!"

Another explosion sounded, and the purple fog ball shook violently, smashing another armored giant rhinoceros.

"Bang bang bang..."

The collision sound continued, and countless beast airflows violently collided with the purple fog ball in the blink of an eye and disintegrated.

The purple fog ball finally became unstable, and purple mist began to dissipate around it.

At this moment, another white tornado suddenly jumped out of the beast torrent and hit the purple fog ball directly.

"Bang!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the entire area within a radius of ten miles in the pit was violently shaken.

The purple fog ball exploded again, and countless thick purple mists dissipated, and then were dispersed by the surging beast torrent.

The white air wave like a tide instantly submerged the snake-dog ghost king who was not in a hurry to avoid it, and tore it into pieces in the blink of an eye, and even the soul fire almost dissipated.

All beasts are frightened and show their strength, the Heavenly Ghost King will kill with one blow!

At this moment, a silver figure flashed beside Shi Mu, and with a flick of his hand, a silver light burst out, wrapped up the soul fire, and put it in his hand.

It was Yan Luo.

Shi Mu stood in the pit, gasping for breath. As the Snake Dog Ghost King was killed, the surrounding poisonous fog dissipated, and the burning sensation on his face also eased. He slowly opened his eyes.

When his eyes were hazy, Shi Mu saw that the original circular pit had become an oval, and the middle part was actually more than ten feet deeper than before.

"When encountering a strong enemy, being too cautious will give the other party a chance. This Snake Dog Ghost King is only in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm. He won't be so lucky next time."

Without waiting for Shi Mu to speak, Yan Luo said this, turned around and turned into a stream of light, flying out of the cave.

Hearing this, Shi Mu couldn't help but touch his chin, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

I was indeed too cautious in the fight just now. In fact, I had used this move of shocking all beasts from the beginning, which would have given the Snake Dog Ghost King no chance to sneak attack.

Shi Mu looked back again, and then a red light flashed on his body, and he chased in the direction where Yan Luo fled. (To be continued.)
