Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 145 The Resurrection of the King of Xian
Seeing the fat man like this, Hu Bayi shook his head and chuckled, saying, "Brave and mighty Fatty, slow down..."

After saying that, Hu Bayi glanced at Hu Ming and said, "Mingzi, you're really something. Only you can scare this fat guy!"

"But what's inside here?!"

"I've heard of Tai Sui before, but I've never seen anything like it that can grow hands before!"

At that moment, Hu Ming said as he walked out, "It should be someone whom the Prince Xian once appointed!"

"A person?" Hu Bayi frowned, surprised.

Hu Ming nodded and continued, "That's right. To put it simply, this Tai Sui is a single-celled organism. If a piece of it is cut off while it's alive, it can grow back!"

"It is estimated that when the current king found this thing, it was already an empty shell that had been hollowed out. He sealed a living person to the wall with white wax, hoping to bring the corpse of this Tai Sui back to life."

"Perhaps this is what he meant by becoming an immortal. I never expected he would actually come back to life!" Hu Ming said...

At this moment, Hu Bayi's expression was one of utter astonishment!

"Mingzi, if what you're saying is true, if you hadn't gotten the King Xian's head and let him sink, would that person really have been able to come back to life?"

Hu Ming shrugged and said, "I don't know about that, but even if he really comes back to life, he won't be considered a human anymore. He'll be a parasite just like that high priest."

"Just a mindless monster!"

By this time, they had already left the rear hall and arrived at the burial chamber where the coffin was placed. Hu Ming acted quickly, taking the head of the King of Xian out of the wooden box in his arms and placing it in the golden coffin.

Thus, a complete body of King Xian was found.

Hu Ming knew that once the Tai Sui in the back hall fully awakened, they probably wouldn't be able to stay here anymore! Therefore, they had to act quickly.

Without hesitation, he squatted down, preparing to put the corpse and funerary objects inside the coffin into his system space.

At that moment, King Xian suddenly moved.

The head, shaped like a ball, and the facial features, which resembled an abstract painting, did not open in a startling manner.

However, his arms, which had clearly transformed into jade arms, moved with the agility of a living person, pulling towards Hu Ming!
At the same time, countless pale, corpse-like hands emerged from the fleshy wall of the Tai Sui, reaching out to grab Hu Ming.

Whether it's the King of Xian or the Tai Sui, they both want to keep Hu Ming as nourishment!
Hu Ming's body is too abnormal. Whether it's his flesh and blood that are beyond ordinary people or his Golden Dragon bloodline tattoo, they are rare and precious nourishing treasures for these two ghostly things!
"Damn, how did it suddenly turn out like this!" Upon seeing this, Hu Ming's face darkened.

Hu Ming immediately shouted for everyone to leave...

The Tai Sui is still expanding, but it's far from enough to support Hu Ming's exhilarating battle.

Left with no other choice, Hu Ming took out one of the three rewards from his last tomb raid—the Dragon Pattern Cloud-Turning Blade—and used it to make a large cut on his arm.

Crimson blood gushed out like a spring, instantly covering his body and the narrow space around him.

chi chi chi...

Immediately, the sound of sulfuric acid corroding flesh could be heard.

Hu Ming's blood is a deadly poison to evil spirits.

The moment those pale, corpse-like hands touched the blood, they were burned away, and a foul, acrid smell instantly filled the small space.

However, the King Xian... this old monster, strictly speaking, is not some kind of evil thing. If Hu Ming remembers correctly, the King Xian's head seems to have been fused with the Muchen Pearl.

The Muchen Pearl is a divine object, and influenced by its mysterious power, it transformed into another strange life form.

However, Hu Bayi was certain that the old monster had his own will, which had long since dissipated, leaving only instinct.

Avoiding the old monster's attack, Hu Ming unceremoniously used its body for leverage and suddenly burst out of the sight.

"Akiko!"

"Mingzi, are you alright? Why are you covered in blood?" Hu Bayi and the others were all alarmed.

At the entrance of a passage, Hu Ming suddenly appeared, but within a minute, he was covered in blood, a sight that shocked the group.

However, Hu Ming did not have time to communicate with them at this moment.

Because, in the next moment, the figure of the King of Xian also appeared in the naked eye.

Despite the fact that the King Xian's head and body are completely connected and that his body has been transformed into jade, he is still incredibly flexible.

This is simply beyond the comprehension of normal people.

Kaka!
While the opponent regained his footing, Hu Ming swiftly slashed with his sword.

Sparks flew.

The violent slash only managed to leave a mark of a few millimeters on the King's neck!
Hu Ming was surprised that his treasured sword hadn't crippled him in one move. He knew that the sword's strength was extraordinary, and his Dragon Pattern Cloud-Turning Sword was no weaker than Zhang Qilin's Black Gold Sword.

"Grass!"

Upon seeing this, Hu Ming's lips twitched violently.

I should have known better than to put the head and body together. I was thinking of taking them back to study them together, but I didn't expect this to happen. However, Hu Ming is now certain that the Muchen Pearl is definitely inside the head of the King of Xian.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one, and the Tai Sui has fully revived, with countless tentacles appearing.

If this drags on, Hu Ming will definitely be swallowed by this monster.

The only question is whether the Tai Sui will be corroded away by Hu Ming's blood and disappear without a trace after swallowing Hu Ming.

boom!
Not daring to be negligent, Hu Ming used his left fist and right knife to continuously inflict damage on the Prince Xian in front of him.

Hu Mingming wisely refrained from using firearms, fully aware of the power of the precious sword in his hand.

A single, all-out strike could only inflict a negligible wound on the King of Xian; a firearm probably wouldn't even scratch his skin.

Although Prince Xian was agile, he was still far inferior to Hu Ming.

For a time, the Prince of Xian was forced to endure beatings at Hu Ming's hands.

Hu Ming was already surrounded by a dense array of pale, fleshy hands, but they were wary of the precious blood that had been spilled all over him and dared not make any rash moves.

Click, click, click!
Hu Ming had lost count of how many times he had aimed at the Prince Xian's neck and slashed.

However, at this point, the space inside the sarcophagus had shrunk by at least one-third.

As for the Prince Xian's jade-carved, crystal-clear neck, one-third of it had already been severed thanks to Hu Ming's disdainful efforts.

"almost!"

Seeing this, Hu Ming narrowed his eyes, already having an idea in mind. At this level, as long as there was a loophole, that would be enough!
“Old Hu, I still have some solid fuel and gasoline bottles here. Get them ready. Once I get them and cut off the head of the King of Xian, I’ll burn this flesh-walled Tai Sui! This thing was fed with a lot of corpses by the King of Xian, and it’s almost become a spirit. If we don’t kill it, it will be hard to get out of here.”

To the astonishment of the three, Hu Ming actually sheathed his treasured sword and calmly gave his orders.

"But Mingzi, according to ancient records, this evil thing can only be completely destroyed at the 'location where the clear and turbid are distinguished, yin and yang are differentiated, and the ominous sand is wiped away'..."

"No need for that complicated process, I have a way!"

However, before Hu Bayi could finish speaking, Hu Ming interrupted him.

At the same time, Hu Ming moved with lightning speed, transforming into a black shadow and leaping behind the Prince of Xian, his hands forming a cross shape to lock the Prince of Xian's throat.

At the same time, he bent his right knee and pressed it against the spine of the Prince.

This pose is—Kui Xing kicking the Dipper!
