Chapter 360: 【155】God and Buddha form, three births in one body
In the dim stone cave path, Wang Longhu kept his eyes in all directions and ears attentive, constantly focusing on observing the surrounding movements.
As they ventured deeper along the path, it could be confirmed that there was truly no sign of life within this mountainside.
Aside from the guy in scale armor that Wang Longhu punched dead earlier, they hadn’t even seen a mouse or a cockroach.
It was completely a dead zone.
Zhang Yuanying closely followed two steps behind Wang Longhu, afraid of falling behind.
This place was like a maze; if they got separated, it would be extremely troublesome.
Bam!
Just as Zhang Yuanying was following closely, Wang Longhu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped abruptly, causing Zhang Yuanying to bump into him.
"What happened?"
Wang Longhu turned around and suddenly reached out, grabbing for Zhang Yuanying’s neck.
Zhang Yuanying’s skin instantly broke out in goosebumps, her pupils trembling.
At that moment, she felt a murderous intent from Wang Longhu and could ascertain that he intended to kill her.
What was going on? Everything had been fine just moments ago.
Wang Longhu grasped Zhang Yuanying’s neck and then slowly removed a clump of black hair from her neck.
This clump of hair was like a collar, encircling the woman’s neck, yet she hadn’t noticed it at all.
"When did this thing appear on your neck, did you feel anything?" Wang Longhu asked, raising an eyebrow.
"When did this happen?" Zhang Yuanying was shocked.
Even though she didn’t have Wang Longhu’s level of skill, she was still a Martial Artist of the Dark Force, her sensory perception wasn’t bad.
But even so, without Wang Longhu’s discovery, she hadn’t noticed anything unusual about her condition.
"It looks like we’ve been marked," Wang Longhu casually threw the hair on the ground and said calmly, looking around.
Previously, Wang Longhu had found similar hair rings on the straw figures, indicating that the person targeting them was the same as the one against Jiang Tianzhen.
Whoosh!
Just as Wang Longhu’s words fell, a shadow swiftly shot toward them.
Wang Longhu instantly flung his hand, immediately knocking the object away.
It turned out to be a stone.
"Oh oh oh oh!" In a higher-up stone cave, an ugly man was squatting at the entrance, laughing wickedly.
His appearance was very ugly, and due to not being exposed to sunlight for a long time, his face was deathly pale.
With extraordinary eyesight, Wang Longhu could even see the capillaries under the man’s skin.
Seeing Wang Longhu and Zhang Yuanying notice him, the man grinned and pulled out a beast skin bag from his arms, then threw it forcefully.
Before it hit the ground, the poorly stitched beast skin bag burst open in mid-air.
Releasing a cloud of powder that filled the air.
Instantly, the area was filled with dust, severely obstructing vision.
Wang Longhu feared that the powder might be toxic and harmful to the eyes, so he immediately closed them, anyway, with his heightened sensory perception, he could clearly gauge the enemy’s movements even without sight.
Simultaneously, he held his breath and reached out to cover Zhang Yuanying’s mouth and nose: "Close your eyes, be careful of the poison."
"Oh oh oh!"
The man laughed even more joyfully, continuously pulling out various beast skin bags from his arms and throwing them. After tossing four or five, the area was enveloped in a white haze.
It was impossible to see even three meters around, vision was severely limited.
Wang Longhu’s ears twitched slightly, and his expression showed a hint of surprise.
Because he noticed a sudden increase in subtle footsteps nearby, sounding like at least five people.
This indicated that these individuals had excellent Lightweight Skill, as Wang Longhu hadn’t noticed anyone before the powder enveloped the area.
Whoosh!
A swift sound of something cutting through the air quietly approached Wang Longhu’s ear.
Feeling a sharp airflow brushing towards his ear, Wang Longhu recognized it as a sharp weapon.
Swiftly pulling his hand back, although he couldn’t see, he caught an iron awl with precise accuracy.
With a strong smash to the ground by Wang Longhu, the assailant didn’t even have time to react before being heavily slammed down.
A loud crash resonated, the attacker couldn’t even scream in pain before being smashed dead by Wang Longhu’s immense force.
"Oh oh oh oh!"
"Hmm ah nee ah!"
As soon as this person died, it was as if a hornet’s nest exploded, and the remaining mysterious people made angry babble and mutterings.
They didn’t seem to speak, only making babbling sounds like a child learning to talk.
With intense focused hearing, Wang Longhu determined the next position and hurled the iron awl in his hand with full force in one direction.
Whoosh!
The iron awl was like lightning, instantly piercing through a person’s chest, continuing its flight and nailing the person heavily to the rock wall.
Given the dangerous environment and special situation, Wang Longhu chose to be ruthless with his attacks, giving his opponent no chance to breathe.
With two people down but not even touching Wang Longhu’s clothes, the people around were visibly anxious.
One of them, disregarding everything, leaped and closed in on Wang Longhu’s side, throwing a punch at his head.
However, before it struck Wang Longhu’s head, a shield of Gang Qi already formed around him, blocking the punch.
