Chapter 225 The Shexie Gu

Jin Shuai instructed his men to back off . However, the three men performing witchcraft were too close and could not retreat in time . The bees did not sting the men but used their jaws to strip off the men’s skin and drill into the skin .

Within a minute, the three men were covered in wounds . Hundreds of flay bees drilled and crawled beneath their skins as humps moving slowly across their faces . Some crawled out from their eyelids and went in and out of their ears and nostrils .

The whole scene was ruthless and sickening .

The three men fell to the ground curling up and thrashing as they tore off their skin and cried in pain .

Ye Shaoyang was puzzled by what he saw . Now, he knew why they were called flay bees .

“Xiaohui . . . ” Ye Shaoyang turned back to her, “Spare them . ”

Tan Xiaohui knocked gently on the cauldron; the bees immediately crawled out the men’s skins . They turned into ashes when they flew back into the cauldron .

Ye Shaoyang realized that the bees were not living beings but Gu craft . He could not help but gasp in admiration of Xiaohui’s skill in Gu crafts .

The three men in black lay weakly on the ground barely breathing .

Since they fell to the ground, the Shexie Gu had automatically disappeared .

Jin Shuai frowned . He ordered another few black witches to summon two more Shexie Gu . They crawled towards Ye Shaoyang and the others . The Gu hissed as the tongues came out from each snakehead . Black fluid flowed out between their fangs when they opened their mouths, and the poisonous stingers vibrated violently .

Ye Shaoyang and Tan Xiaohui faced both Shexie Gu . However, Ye Shaoyang had never encountered such a creature before . When he was thinking of a way to defeat the Shexie Gu, he heard someone yelling above him, “Be careful!”

He looked up and saw two black things falling from above . Ye Shaoyang paused for a moment and realized that they were bags of black dogs’ blood!

He quickly pulled Tan Xiaohui back . A few seconds later, two packs of the black dogs’ blood hit one of the snakeheads of both Shexie Gu .

Bang!

The blood packs burst, and the blood spilled . When the blood encountered the Shexie Gu, the snakeheads burned into ashes and disappeared .

The unexpected outcome left Jin Shuai and the black witches flabbergasted . They looked up as more and more packs of blood fell from above and hit a few of the black witches . They became powerless as the blood covered them .

Jin Shuai realized what had happened and panicked . He instructed the other black witches to retreat . The few black witches who were rendered powerless went blank and backed off slower than the others .

Ye Shaoyang was afraid that he might be hit by the black dogs’ blood, so he did not dare to move forward . In contrast, Xiao Ma rushed into the crowd and randomly hit the black witches with the stick . Two black witches fainted on the spot while another two fell to the ground crying in pain .

One of the black witches tried to fight back, but Xiao Ma knocked him over using his shoulder, and the black witch took a bad spill .

“Damn, I like this! It is damn fun!” Xiao Ma shouted happily, “I don't know what witchcraft is, but I am good at fighting hand-to-hand . I don't mind fighting with you all day . Haha!”

“Xiao Ma, back off now!” Ye Shaoyang knew the black witches were not as weak as they appeared . Xiao Ma could injure a few of them because they were caught off guard . They were quite powerful when they had the chance to organize themselves .

As expected, when the black witches retreated a short distance, they got organized . A few of the black witches behind the line started to perform witchcraft under Jin Shuai’s instruction . The black witches in front of the line blocked Ye Shaoyang’s view . He could barely see a few of them kneeling and drawing spells on the ground . After a while, all kinds of spirits appeared out of nowhere, and their wails echoed through Dead Man Valley .

“That is the spirit manipulation technique of blood witchcraft!” Tan Xiaohui shouted, “The black witches captured spirits they had encountered and cultivated the souls into their spirit servants to fight for them . ”

Ye Shaoyang clenched his jaw and nodded slowly . Finally, he understood how cruel and evil the black witches were . Capturing souls like that was completely against the laws of the universe .

Suddenly, miserable shrieks sounded from the hilltop . All of them looked up and saw an aureola extending over the edge of the cliff and continuously absorbed the spirits . It was Teng Yongqing .

However, the spirits that flew toward the aureola increased until they were crowded in front of the aureola . A long sigh sounded from the top of the cliff, and the aureola emitted a golden light and broke the spirits into pieces . The primordial spirits scattered across the sky .

A small thing fell in front of Ye Shaoyang . It was a Bodhi seed .

Teng Yongqing killed the spirits with a Bodhi seed .

Ye Shaoyang sighed quietly . Buddhists would not choose to kill any spirit if they could avoid it . Killing was against Buddhist principles . Teng Yongqing must have been left with no other choice .

“Teng Yongqing should be able to defend himself . Attack!” Ye Shaoyang lifted his spirit binding chain and rushed toward the enemy as he spoke .

A few black witches came from behind Jin Shuai . They bit their fingertip and drew several symbols on a rock . Suddenly, Ye Shaoyang’s legs tensed up; a pair of wrinkled hands grasped his ankle, and he quickly whipped them with his chain .

Only then he realized, a chasm appeared parallel to the path of Dead Man Valley extending from his position to the inside of the valley .

Numerous human skeletons climbed up from the chasm and walked toward Ye Shaoyang and the two others . The skeletons that had broken legs crawled on all fours while the skeletons with no heads walked .

Ye Shaoyang guessed that the enemies had performed some type of blood witchcraft to awaken the corpses buried underground . To his surprise, the bodies could walk and attack without their heads . From this, he understood that he only had a very surface understanding of blood witchcraft .

Even though many skeletons were incomplete, they were incredibly strong . Ye Shaoyang’s hand shook violently, and his arm grew numb when he blocked an attack from a skeleton with his chain . To hasten the destruction of the skeletons, he pulled out his Qixing Dragon Sword and slashed through them . Jin Shuai hid among the black witches shrugging his shoulders and could barely be seen .

Suddenly, Ye Shaoyang saw the black witches’ robes flapping . He fixed his eyes upon their robes and saw a terrifying scene .
