Chapter 400: The Ancient Ferocious Beast Eclipse
Bi Yao looked intently, and saw that the ancient runes on Eclipse's body were flickering.
The lines that had been temporarily extinguished by the golden flames began to glow faintly again.
When the foul-smelling wind brushed past his ears, Su Han instinctively drew his sword to block it.
The icy sword energy torn apart by Eclipse's front claws plowed deep grooves on the ground, and broken ice chips mixed with the mucus on Eclipse's body surface fell down.
He caught a glimpse of Bi Yao staggering and holding onto the ruins, her fingertips already beginning to uncontrollably inhale and exhale green spiritual energy - that was a sign of the backlash from the forced overdraft of the "Han Yu Jue".
“Get behind me!”
Su Han roared and swung out a sky full of frost blades.
The cold air exploded into tiny pieces of ice on the Erosion Abyss's scales, and one of the scales suddenly rolled up, revealing its sharp white fangs.
A sharp pain ran up Su Han's right arm along the sword, and his pupils suddenly shrank. This abyss monster actually showed its self-repair ability under the impact of sword energy!
Biyao suddenly bit her fingertips and pressed them between her eyebrows.
In an instant, nine scarlet-gold chain shadows burst out from her body, and each chain node was adorned with a jumping flame totem.
The act of her using the secret technique to forcibly penetrate the meridians in her limbs caused Shi Yuan to roar threateningly. The black poisonous mist condensed into sharp arrows that penetrated the gaps in the chains, but strangely ignited when it touched the halo around the girl.
"Flame Spirit Binding Array."
Su Han saw the outline of the magic circle behind her and was shocked.
This forbidden technique requires the burning of lifespan as fuel, but the formation that was forcibly activated at this moment actually delayed Eclipse's movements by half a breath.
He seized the opportunity and jumped up, the tip of his sword pointed directly at the monster's eye socket:
“Hold your breath!”
Before Bi Yao could react, countless ice spikes rising from the earth's veins formed a cold prison that had already covered an area of ten feet.
Eclipse Abyss rolled in agony in the cold prison, as the smell of sulfur and frost collided violently.
But just before the ice spike was about to pierce the magic core, several bloody marks suddenly appeared on the monster's back, and its originally curled up hind claws suddenly expanded three times in size and pierced through the cold prison!
Su Han turned around and slashed out with the Ice Soul giant sword, which just brushed past the sharp claws of Erosion Abyss. The recoil force caused his tiger's mouth to burst.
The blood splashed on the sword spine and made a corrosive hissing sound. He threw the sword violently, turned around and pulled Bi Yao up to jump towards the broken cliff. The angry scream of the Eclipse Abyss shook off the snow on the top of the mountain, but the chasing black shadow suddenly slowed down when it touched an ancient array pattern on the ice.
The moment the two fell into the cold pond, the roar of a mountain collapse was heard behind them.
Su Han carried the unconscious Bi Yao to the surface, and his fingertips stroked the throbbing blood vessels on the girl's neck.
The moonlight penetrated the mist and revealed the jade plate on her chest - that magical weapon with a silver glow from the Nether Valley was now resonating with her heart, producing endless golden patterns.
"I see."
Su Han suddenly remembered the scene she saw in her sea of consciousness three days ago.
In the ancient temple on a stormy night, the priest in white pressed the blood-stained jade plate into the girl's forehead, and the golden patterns surging underground crawled along her meridians all over her body.
The origin of fire that should have been suppressed by the Cold Jade Art actually produced a wonderful resonance with his ice spiritual power under the guidance of the jade token.
A teeth-grinding friction sound was heard from afar, and Shiyuan was approaching with his injured body on the broken ice.
Su Han formed a seal with his backhand and lit the medicine bag on Bi Yao's waist. The rising green smoke mixed with the smell of blood drifted away with the wind.
When the monster turned around following the scent, he was carrying the girl on his back and diving into the underground river.
Amid the excruciating pain of icy water pouring into his lungs, he heard the roar of the Abyss that shook the earth transform into a muffled sound underwater, while the girl's pale face became increasingly transparent in the dark blue water waves.
At the end of the dark river is a huge dragon skeleton, and the seal array diagram can be vaguely seen between the spine covered with dark red moss.
Su Han's pupils contracted - this was clearly the "Nine Abyss Demon-Suppressing Pillar" recorded in ancient books, but the shape of the gap where the core of the formation was missing clearly matched the mark on the Bi Yao jade token.
When he broke through the moss and touched the rock wall, the entire dragon bone suddenly lit up with blood-red runes, and the girl in his arms suddenly trembled violently.
"Don't touch it! That's the Soul-Eating Curse."
Biyao opened her eyes in severe pain, and wisps of black smoke appeared in her hair.
She raised her hand and pressed down Su Han's hand that was about to withdraw. Her bloody fingertips slid across the array patterns on the rock wall, and the entire dragon bone wall suddenly made a crackling sound of bones rubbing against each other.
The roar of the Eclipse Abyss exploded above his head, and it was actually using its body to crash into the underground seal!
Su Han picked up Bi Yao and ran into the corridor that suddenly appeared. Behind him, there was a roar of rocks collapsing. (End of this chapter)
