Chapter 526 Pulao
Chapter 526 Pulao
The two people on the riverbank were both shocked, their faces changing drastically. Before they could react, the shrill cry rang out again, this time clearly, coming from the rising giant wave. After the sound, the giant wave suddenly surged up like a tornado, and at the same time, a huge white bone hand emerged from the swirling wave, slamming down on the two terrified people on the riverbank. The force was like a giant wave, rumbling and carrying countless howling, eerie winds. Under this desolate sky, suddenly, the sound of ghostly wails arose, like the wailing of ten thousand ghosts, eerie and chilling, making one's heart pound.
"No, get back!"
"No, get back!"
Almost at the instant the giant wave surged up, the two cried out in alarm at the same time, and without the slightest difference, they quickly retreated, simultaneously activating their protective qi. In their panic, they also struck out at the bone palm at the same time.
"boom!"
One bone, two lights, three palms facing each other, a loud bang, the light palm disappeared, the bone palm was completely unharmed, but its momentum was greatly reduced, and it continued to strike at the two.
"court death."
The two had already come to their senses when Tian Yue let out a sharp shout. The wooden sword was already in her hand, and she slashed at the oncoming bone palm. Instantly, a wooden sword aura shot out from the wooden sword, growing several times larger in the blink of an eye. The huge sword aura roared through the air, drawing a beautiful arc, like a comet attacking the moon, tearing open a long spear several feet wide. It was like an unstoppable dragon emerging from the sea, fiercely slashing towards the bone palm.
"puff!"
With a crisp sound, the massive wooden-colored sword energy struck the bone palm. With a "whoosh," the bone palm instantly turned into dust and scattered with the wind.
After a brief moment of shock, Chao Bufan quickly recovered. His eyes twitched. It was the first time he had ever seen Tian Yue make a move, and he dared not take the power of Tian Yue's sword head-on. This guy was indeed a dangerous person.
"roar~"
A sharp scream rang out from the tornado, which then crashed back into the river, creating a spray of water. Immediately afterward, a massive, eerie skeleton slowly rose from the water, filling the surrounding air with a stench.
This is clearly the skeleton of some kind of beast. The huge head has a horn on it, and it looks exactly like a rhinoceros skeleton. The white bones are stark and the air is chilling. In particular, there are two balls of what look like burning flames in its pair of empty eye sockets, which flicker uncertainly.
Chao Bufan's expression was solemn as he stared intently at the enormous skeleton ahead. He frowned and asked, "Brother, what is this monster?"
“It is the river god of this blood river—Pulao,” Tianyue replied with an equally solemn expression.
"Pulao?" Chao Bufan was startled.
“I’ve met this guy before, he’s really tough,” Tianyue transmitted her voice, “You’d better be careful.”
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan sneered inwardly. Wasn't that obvious? Judging from the power of that palm strike just now, he knew that Pu Lao was a formidable opponent. Did he really need Chao Bufan to remind him? But then, Chao Bufan was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Brother, you said you've encountered it before? When was that?"
"It's been so long, I don't even remember when," Tianyue replied.
"So, you know how to leave this hellhole?" Chao Bufan pressed.
“Of course I know,” Tianyue replied.
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan's tense heart finally relaxed. He thought to himself, "Since this guy has been here, he must have a way to get out."
However, Tianyue glanced at Chao Bufan and transmitted her voice, "Little brother, don't worry. As soon as we get the stuff, I'll take you away from here immediately."
Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan nodded, feeling a strange sense of ease wash over him.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, Pulao roared angrily to the sky, then abruptly lowered its head. The two burning flames in its huge eyes suddenly intensified, and two sharp, cold beams shot out from the raging fire, striking towards Chao Bufan and his companion. The two quickly dodged, and in an instant, the two cold beams struck the spot where they had stood, creating a loud "boom," sending sand and stones flying, and leaving two huge craters where they had stood.
Having missed his first attack, Pulao withdrew his gaze and said angrily, "You insignificant ant, how dare you offend the majesty of this deity! You are courting death!"
"Ha~"
Tian Yue suddenly laughed and said, "Pu Lao, that's not right of you. You were the one who started it, so why are you blaming us?"
Upon hearing this, Pu Lao was visibly taken aback, seemingly not expecting that this tiny human before him would know his name, nor that he would speak in such a way. After a moment of surprise, his anger seemed to subside considerably. He quickly sized up Tian Yue and then said, "So it's you. I said, Palace Spirit, last time I made you flee in disarray, and you still dare to come here to die?"
As if Pu Lao had caught her by the skin of her teeth, Tian Yue became visibly uncomfortable and quickly said, "Hey, Pu Lao, can you not put it so harshly? What do you mean I ran away in a panic? I left because I didn't want to get entangled with you for no reason."
This guy immediately defended himself, as if it were the truth.
"laugh!"
Pu Lao snorted, clearly with a hint of sarcasm, and then laughed, "Whether you fled in disgrace or not, you know best in your heart. What? Didn't you learn your lesson last time? Are you here to die this time?"
"Who said I'm here to die?" Tianyue said. "Pulao, you're the river god here, how can you speak so rudely!"
"Is it unpleasant to hear?" Pu Lao sneered. "If you're not here to die, then what are you doing here? And you even brought a stranger with you. If you're not here to die, then what are you doing here?"
These two oddballs chatted back and forth, their extraordinary and leisurely conversation flowing naturally, making it harmless to be a listener.
"Hey Pulao, can you stop calling me dead all the time?" Tianyue said irritably. "I was just passing by, and you attacked me without even asking what happened."
"Is that so?" Pu Lao retorted, coldly saying, "Are you really just passing through here? You know perfectly well that this is my territory, yet you still choose to pass through here?"
"What a joke," Tianyue said irritably. "Who says I can't pass through here? And who says this is your territory?"
"Hmph." Pu Lao snorted coldly and said, "So what if it's my decree? If you don't want to die, get out of here or I'll change my mind."
"Sigh!" Tianyue sighed and said, "Alright, I'll leave then. But don't blame me for not reminding you. I was originally ordered to come and inform you of something. Since there's nothing to say between us, then forget it. Just don't regret it."
With that, Tianyue turned around and winked at Chao Bufan, then said, "Little brother, let's go!"
"Wait!"
