Chapter 416: Corpse in the Mud
After seeing them leave, Chen Yile recited the Fire Spell.
Flames burst from his hands, forming a wall of fire between him and the monster.
The monster seemed to be afraid of the flames. It stopped in front of the wall of fire and let out an angry hiss.
Chen Yile took the opportunity to turn around and flee. As he ran, he looked back and saw that the monster was trying to break through the wall of fire.
The wall of fire gradually weakened under the impact of the monster. Chen Yile's heart tightened and he quickened his pace.
Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong ran wildly in the cave. The fog was still thick and the surrounding environment was gloomy and terrifying.
Their hearts were beating like drums, and the sound of their own footsteps and the monster's roar echoed in their ears, as if the god of death was chasing them closely.
After running for an unknown amount of time, they found a small cave in a corner.
The cave was relatively dry, so they crawled in and gasped for breath.
Lin Qingyao's face was covered with tears: "I don't know how Yile is doing."
Lin Feihong comforted him, "Yile is so powerful, he will definitely be able to escape."
The two rested in the cave for a while, and the tension eased a little.
However, the calm did not last long.
The soil in the cave suddenly became wet and slippery, as if something was wriggling underneath.
Lin Qingyao nervously grabbed Lin Feihong's arm: "Listen, there seems to be some sound."
Lin Feihong pricked up his ears and indeed heard a low "rustling" sound. The sound seemed to come from hell and made people shudder.
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the slippery mud.
The hand was as dry as a stick, with long and sharp nails and some black dirt remaining on them.
Immediately afterwards, a figure slowly crawled out of the mud.
It was a corpse. The face of the corpse had long since rotted away, leaving only two empty eye sockets, in which there seemed to be green phosphorous fire burning.
Its clothes were tattered and gave off a strong stench of decay.
Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong looked at the corpse in horror and stepped back unconsciously.
The corpse slowly walked towards them, leaving a deep footprint in the slippery soil with every step.
"This... is this the body of a worker who died in the mine?" Lin Qingyao's voice trembled violently.
Lin Feihong gripped the stick tightly: "Whatever it is, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
Lin Feihong rushed towards the corpse and smashed it hard with his freedom stick.
The free stick hit the body with a dull "bang" sound. The body just shook slightly and was not seriously injured.
Instead, the corpse stretched out its hands and grabbed Lin Feihong.
Lin Feihong quickly retreated, narrowly avoiding the corpse's attack.
Lin Qingyao also came back to her senses. She raised the Qingfu Sword and muttered something.
The Qingfu Sword emitted a layer of green light and stabbed towards the corpse.
The Qingfu sword pierced the corpse's shoulder, but the corpse seemed to feel nothing and continued to approach them.
Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong fought a difficult battle with the corpse.
The corpse is very powerful, and each attack carries a strong impact.
Their attacks caused little damage to the corpses, and they were forced to retreat step by step by the corpses.
Just when they were in trouble, Chen Yile rushed over.
His face was a little pale, obviously suffering from the aftereffects of the poisonous fog.
Seeing the scene in front of him, he joined the battle without hesitation.
Chen Yile punched the corpse with such force that it knocked the corpse back a few steps.
After the corpse stabilized its body, it let out a low roar, turned its gaze to Chen Yile, and pounced towards him.
Chen Yile dodged the corpse's attack by moving sideways, then used a sweeping kick to try to trip the corpse.
The corpse jumped high, dodging his attack, and spat a mouthful of black liquid towards Chen Yile in the air.
Chen Yile quickly rolled backwards to avoid the black liquid.
The black liquid fell to the ground with a sizzling sound, and a small hole was corroded on the ground.
"This thing is too weird!" Chen Yile said with a frown.
Lin Qingyao said anxiously: "What should we do? We can't defeat it at all."
Lin Feihong was also panting: "We can't fight it head-on, we have to think of other ways."
At this moment, the temperature in the cave suddenly dropped sharply, and the breath they exhaled turned into white mist.
Frost began to appear on the surrounding walls, as if they were in an ice cellar.
The corpse seemed to become more active in the cold environment; its movements became faster and its attacks more fierce.
It pounced on Chen Yile again, its hands like iron pliers grabbing towards his neck.
Chen Yile crossed his hands to block the corpse's attack, but the corpse's power was too great and he was forced to retreat continuously.
When Lin Qingyao saw that Chen Yile was in danger, she gritted her teeth, inserted the Qingfu Sword into the ground, and recited the Ice Control Technique.
As the incantation was recited, the surrounding frost began to spread towards the corpse, trying to freeze it.
The corpse's movements were slightly slowed down by the frost, but it soon broke free from the frost and continued to attack them.
Lin Feihong took the opportunity to go around behind the corpse and inserted the freedom stick into the back of the corpse.
The moment the freedom stick was inserted into the corpse, a black smoke emerged from the corpse and the corpse let out a painful roar.
But this did not stop the corpse from attacking. It swung its backhand and knocked Lin Feihong out.
Lin Feihong fell heavily to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lin Qingyao exclaimed: "Feihong!"
She wanted to check Lin Feihong's injuries, but the corpse rushed towards her again.
Seeing this, Chen Yile rushed over and blocked the attack of the corpse.
"You guys go quickly, I'll hold it back!" Chen Yile shouted again.
Lin Qingyao had tears in her eyes: "No, let's go together!"
Chen Yile said anxiously: "Don't be stubborn, if you continue like this we will all die!"
Just then, a sinister laugh came from the cave.
The laughter seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to tell the source.
The laughter echoed in the cave, interweaving with the roar of the corpse to form a melody of death.
A strong sense of unease surged in their hearts, and they felt that something more terrifying was approaching.
In this tense atmosphere, Chen Yile, Lin Qingyao and Lin Feihong continued to fight a desperate battle with this strange corpse. Every attack and dodge was related to their life and death.
As the eerie laughter continued, the surrounding environment became even more eerie.
Blood began to seep out of the walls of the cave, flowing down the walls and gathering into pools of blood on the ground.
It seemed as if countless pairs of eyes were peeping at them in the pool of blood, which was creepy.
The corpse was walking in a pool of blood, and its body was also stained with blood, making it look even more terrifying.
It attacked Chen Yile and the others again, and each attack was accompanied by splattering blood, as if it wanted to drag them into this bloody hell.
