Chapter 247 Silk Thread Attack
"Does it think that just because it's turned into bones we won't be able to tell which one it is? It looks kind of stupid..." Qingshan said sarcastically to the dream demon.
Long Chuqing also looked at the Dream Demon. She raised her phoenix feather whip and destroyed a skeleton that was lunging at her. Then she turned around and attacked the Dream Demon again.
With her left hand, the dream demon controlled the skeletal puppet to attack the others, while with her right hand, she manipulated a ball of silk to deal with the incoming whip.
Hearing Qingshan's mockery, the dream demon realized that she had been exposed. The blue light in the eye sockets of the skeleton she had transformed into suddenly turned cold.
At this moment, Meng Yao also clearly realized that Long Chuqing was the most troublesome one among these people.
Its dream-binding threads are invisible and intangible to ordinary people, and the fact that Long Chuqing was able to easily withstand the waves of attacks it launched when she came in proves that she is no ordinary person.
Although she doesn't look like a Taoist priest or anything like that, she shouldn't be underestimated, and we dare not be careless in the slightest when she attacks us.
Long Chuqing once again raised his whip and pressed towards Meng Yao, who quickly dodged to the side.
However, Long Chuqing had also anticipated its movements, and quickly lashed out with her whip, pressing it towards it once more.
The dream demon sensed the immense power of this blow, but there was no way to dodge it now; if it took the hit, it would surely be injured.
It urgently moved the surrounding bones to its side to block Long Chuqing's attack.
The whip lashed heavily across the pile of bones.
"boom……"
A loud crash rang out, followed by the sound of bones cracking.
The dream demon took the opportunity to retreat and move away, and the pile of white bones that had gathered together were all snapped in half at the waist, with the broken bones below the waist falling all over the ground.
Long Chuqing did not stop. She lightly tiptoed up and lashed out with her whip again. This time, her whip did not go straight for the dream demon, but instead lashed out at the threads on the heads.
The phoenix feather whip instantly unfurled its feather blades and severed the silk thread upon contact.
As the silk threads snapped, the bones, no longer restrained, fell and crashed to the ground.
Without the control of the dream demon, the weaker ribs and the weathered skull were smashed to pieces upon contact with the ground, leaving only a few relatively hard skulls rolling on the ground.
With a "click," Qingzhou took a step back, stepping on a broken bone as he landed.
"I'm sorry, blame that dream demon if you have to! It used you as a puppet, and we had no choice in the matter." Qingzhou clasped his hands together and whispered to the pile of bones on the ground.
After a fierce fight, the temple was littered with wreckage, and you could step on bones anywhere you wanted to.
Most of the skeletons controlled by the Dream Demon have been dealt with by the group, and the last few were destroyed by Long Chuqing.
The dream demon transformed back into the red-clad woman it had been before and flew back to the dream bag.
"Ah..." She roared angrily as she looked at the broken bones scattered on the ground.
She raised her sharp claws, her red lips parted, and she muttered incantations.
Then, the blue-glowing dream sacs behind her began to tremble, and the threads flew out of the dream sacs.
They were like venomous snakes poised to strike, coiled around the Dream Demon with their heads raised, ready to attack Long Chuqing and the others at any moment.
She roared in fury, "How dare you destroy all my collection! This is unforgivable!"
Looking at the dense webs in front of her, Long Chuqing realized that if these webs attacked them all at once, it would be difficult for her to protect all seven of them at the same time.
"You all step outside first," Long Chuqing said sternly.
"It's too late to leave now." As she spoke, the dream demon had already used her silk threads to completely surround them.
The entrance was no exception; its path was blocked by silk threads.
Long Chuqing urgently reminded, "Ordinary objects and swords cannot touch these threads. Place the exorcism talisman I gave you on the hilt of your sword and hold it there; that will deflect the incoming threads."
"Those without exorcism talismans should move closer to the center."
The dream demon gave them no time to react, and with a gentle wave of her hand, she made a move.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."
The threads, which were raised like venomous snakes, immediately straightened and rushed towards Long Chuqing and the others.
Long Chuqing quickly pulled the phoenix hairpin from her hair and stuffed it into Xiao Han's hand. "Take this for self-defense. My hairpin can also break through silk threads."
After saying that, Long Chuqing put her hand on Xiao Han's shoulder and used the momentum to leap into the air.
With a light spin, she unleashed a powerful strike, channeling her spiritual energy into the whip. The whip traced a circular arc in the air, striking the dense, attacking silk threads around her.
After breaking through the surrounding silk threads, the whip was swiftly pulled back and lashed out at the silk threads attacking from above. The whip danced rapidly in Long Chuqing's hand.
"Ding Ding Ding..."
The whip struck the hard silk thread, making a crisp sound.
This time, the silk threads were not swept away as before, but were directly shattered by Feng Yu's spiritual power, breaking into fluorescent dots before disappearing.
As they watched the threads of light dissipate, Qing Tong and the others were filled with awe.
They had previously tried to cut the thread on the white bone skull, and the result was the same as Xiao Han's verification: the sword passed right through the thread but failed to cut it.
[Bronze Heart's Thoughts: Miss Dragon is truly a hidden master. Is this something an ordinary person could do? Just how many more abilities does she possess that we don't know about?]
[Qingshan thought to himself: I knew the Dragon Girl was mysterious! My intuition was right. What kind of skill is this? Can I learn it?]
[Qingzhou thought to himself: Well... anyway, if there's any danger, just call for Miss Long to save me.]
[Qingyang exclaimed in surprise: As expected... a woman who dares to meet a demon alone at night is truly extraordinary.]
[Qingsong thought to himself: Miss Long, please spare us! This makes us men look useless!]
[Qingying pondered in her heart: Does Miss Long take on apprentices? I wonder if someone like me meets her criteria?]
Xiao Han was also amazed, but he was more worried: Chu Qing had to deal with the dream demon's attack while also worrying about their safety. If they couldn't help, wouldn't they be a hindrance to her?
As the glow faded away, the dream demon frowned.
She was secretly alarmed: What a close call! Luckily, she noticed it in time and quickly cut the dissipating threads, otherwise the dream sac would definitely have been affected.
In the brief moment that Long Chuqing destroyed the first wave of silk threads, Qingying, Qingzhou, Qingshan, and Qingyang, the four people who had exorcism talismans, had already found the talismans and held them on the hilts of their swords as Long Chuqing had instructed.
The Dream Demon quickly adjusted and soon launched a second wave of attacks.
This time she changed her tactics, adopting a continuous attack method and increasing the attack range.
Qingying and the others also joined the defense. After holding the talisman on the hilt of their swords, they were indeed able to touch the threads and block their attacks.
They protected Qingsong, Qingtong, and Xiaohan, who had no talismans, in the middle.
