Human Shackles - Chapter273

Everyone from the Sky Thunder Palace retreated back into the mountain. The beast horde swarmed forward, using all kinds of abilities to indiscriminately bombard the mountain.

The stone of this mountain was much harder than ordinary metal, but the beast horde had come prepared. Several large dark green lizards climbed up the mountain, aiming at the entrance and spraying green mucus. The mucus was extremely corrosive, and could make the structure of material brittle. Although the stone of this mountain was not ordinary, it could not resist the corrosion. The places where the mucus was sprayed became as soft as mud, and the beast horde's excavation became much smoother, quickly expanding the entrance.

Luo Kai slid down from the wild boar, and shuttled through the gaps of the beast horde. Just as he was about to reach the entrance, a sense of danger suddenly appeared in his heart. Before he could react, a cold and tough silk had already wrapped around his body.

The silk had been sprayed out from the abdomen of the eight-clawed spider. Creatures like spiders were naturally masters of nerve sensing. The countless fine hairs on their bodies could sense the slightest changes in the outside world, and were even very sensitive to potential danger. Although Luo Kai's ability to hide his presence was powerful, he could not hide it from the spiders.

The spider silk was very tough, and Luo Kai could only activate his mental power. An invisible force field rapidly cut and spun, twisting the spider silk on his body. Once again, he sped up. Under the amplification of his powerful mental power, his speed was not any slower than before, and an afterimage flickered in place.

Just as he flashed out a few meters, the surrounding air suddenly became viscous, and at the same time, the ground also gave birth to a powerful gravitational force, causing his body to sink. Facing the beast horde directly, Luo Kai finally realized how terrifying they were. All kinds of powerful abilities emerged one after another, making it difficult for him to move. The wind whistled in his ears, and countless attacks came one after another.

At this point, he could no longer suppress his strength. Light flashed in his eyes, and an invisible mental storm was released. As if there was a sudden clap of thunder, the bones of all the beasts within a few meters of him were broken, and their flesh and blood splattered everywhere. Those ability based attacks were also interrupted.

His body felt light, and just as he was about to take a step forward, he saw an enormous ice sculpture squatting at the entrance. It was the eight-clawed spider, and its compound eyes were staring straight at him.

This was Luo Kai's second time facing a full-bodied Vicious Beast. He wasn't affected by the huge deterrent force at all. It was completely different from when he was in Seongma Province, where he was completely crushed. However, it was still difficult for him to win. Not to mention that he was in the middle of a herd of Vicious Beasts, even if he recovered his previous strength, he still wouldn't be able to win. Thinking quickly, he turned around and rushed down the mountain.

Escaping and fighting were two different concepts. Under the enhancement of his powerful mental energy, the flow of time in the outside world became slow to him. He turned into a stream of light, diving down from the mountainside that was several thousand meters high. He dodged all the obstacles in his way as if he had foreseen them.

The penguin Vicious Beast in the sky noticed him and screeched. The herd of Vicious Beasts covered the sky and pressed down on him.

Luo Kai, who was running at full speed, suddenly saw a blur in his eyes. Everything in his field of vision seemed to have turned into countless broken mirrors. No matter which mirror he crashed into, it would return to its original position. He was shocked. Was this the original form of the spatial ability?

The current situation didn't give him the time to figure out a way to break it. He could only stimulate his mental energy to the maximum. A crack appeared between his eyebrows, and a small light appeared. He used all his strength to crash into a mirror. With a crisp sound, he broke through the invisible spatial barrier and fell down the mountain like a meteor, smashing a big hole in the ground. The Vicious Beasts rushed over, but they didn't dare to enter.

Luo Kai crawled up from the ground with a painful expression. He twisted his body, and with a series of cracking sounds, the bones of his broken limbs returned to their original positions. Even with the protection of his mental energy, his body couldn't withstand such an explosive force.

When the Vicious Beasts dispersed, he crawled out of the ground, restrained his aura, and moved towards the mountain peak again.

Just as he took two steps, his expression suddenly changed. He looked at a pile of snow not far away. A small head popped out from it. It was Bao 'er.

"Hey, I know a small path. Follow me."

The two bypassed the front of the battlefield and moved towards the back of the mountain. The back of the mountain was full of knife-like rock walls. However, there was a hidden crevice the size of a person. The Vicious Beasts couldn't squeeze in, but humans could.

After passing through the narrow crevice, a flight of stairs appeared. Bao 'er hugged her spear and walked in front. She was silent all the way, and her face was full of worry. There were a total of three Vicious Beasts, and one of them was an existence that could instantly kill a high-level physical trainer. The Sky Thunder Palace couldn't hold on for much longer.

After about half an hour, they reached the end. After passing through a long corridor, an oval-shaped room appeared in front of them. When they saw the scene inside, they couldn't help but be shocked.

The ground was full of shriveled corpses, as if their blood essence had been sucked dry by something!

"This … What's going on?"

Luo Kai's expression was grave, "It seems like it's not just the Vicious Beasts that are targeting the Sky Thunder Palace."

The two continued to explore cautiously. Not long after, they encountered several identical corpses. There were corpses everywhere along the way. It seemed like all the disciples of the Sky Thunder Palace had been killed. An indescribable evil aura pervaded the air.

Luo Kai carefully examined the corpses on the ground and said, "There are no physical trainers here, they are all low level disciples."

Bao 'er was a little frightened and moved closer to him. She was still not a physical trainer. If she encountered any kind of attack in this kind of narrow space, she was afraid that she would end up like the corpses on the ground.

Their field of vision gradually widened. Luo Kai heard a slight fighting sound. He hurriedly pulled Bao 'er and ran towards the direction of the sound.

In front of them was a huge space. A group of people were currently besieging two old monks. The people being besieged were actually Bhikkhu and Zha Kun.

The bhikkhu's face was pale. There was a big hole in his chest where his heart should be. He was already on the verge of death.

Blood was seeping out of Zha Kun's mouth, nose and eyes. His body was blossoming with a resplendent silver light. It was precisely this layer of silver light that was blocking the numerous attacks. That silver light was getting dimmer and dimmer, and also wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.

And among the people besieging them, Pu Guang and that man wielding a machete were among them. The most unbelievable thing was that the winged Wisdom King, who had already been killed by the Sky Piercing Bird, was also among them. His whole body was surging with black fog. His originally broken body was like a wriggling maggot that was reconstructing itself.

This was the scene that Luo Kai and Bao 'er saw. It seemed like the Sky Thunder Palace had already been infiltrated by an evil cult. Even the two Wisdom Kings had already become heretics.

Zha Kun was the first to notice the arrival of Luo Kai and Bao 'er. He puffed out his chest and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Let's go!"

The people besieging them all turned around. Pu Guang's original solemn and amiable expression was replaced by a gloomy and cold expression, "Go, kill them!"

Luo Kai frowned. He stretched out his hand and pressed in the air. A formless defensive barrier was formed. He said to Ah 'Bao, "Ah' Bao, you go first. Leave this place. I will do my best."

Without waiting for her reply, he took a deep breath. A silver light flickered between his eyebrows. Threads of silver light pulled something out. Accompanied by a joyful sound, a light flashed, and a terrifying aura of destruction spread out.
