The Empress of Ten Reincarnations Just to Find Me
Chapter 49: Encountering an Evil Spirit at Night
At this moment, he could feel the breath getting closer and closer. Chen Han's face was solemn, and he quickly called Xiao Lizi beside him.
"Brother Li, there's movement."
Upon hearing this, Little Leo immediately perked up, stood up and looked around.
"Hmm? Little brother, there's nothing strange about it. Did you hear it wrong? It's normal to see some small animals at night..."
Before Little Leo could finish his words, a purple-black figure suddenly emerged from the bushes and pounced on him without him being able to react.
Chen Han reacted quickly and condensed an ice cone to shatter it. The purple-black figure also let out a creepy howl, which immediately scared Little Leo.
Little Leo was terrified, and didn't even bother to sigh that Chen Han was actually a cultivator. He quickly ran towards the resting place of the convoy, shouting as he ran: "Everyone, wake up! There's a monster!"
His voice was particularly loud in the quiet night, instantly breaking the original silence.
When everyone heard the urgent shouts, they woke up from their sleep, each of them still sleepy but instantly enveloped by the tense atmosphere.
Some frantically reached for the weapons around them, while others simply stood up and looked in the direction of the sound with a confused and vigilant look on their faces.
Chenyue, who was sleeping with Xiao Mengyue in her arms, immediately became alert. She gently placed Xiao Mengyue aside in a safer place, stood up, and quickly scanned the surroundings with her eyes like lightning, while the energy in her body was secretly circulating.
Xiao Mengyue rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at the nervous expressions of the adults, realized the seriousness of the matter, and stayed where she was obediently.
The bearded man who led the group hurried forward with a knife in his hand, and asked anxiously.
"What's going on? What happened?" His eyes quickly swept over everyone and finally landed on Leo, who looked a little flustered.
Chen Yue walked quickly to Chen Han, his eyes filled with worry, and asked softly, "Is there any movement?"
Chen Han just nodded solemnly, his eyes still fixed on the place where the purple-black figure disappeared.
"That thing is very strange, it's neither a monster nor a human..."
Before long, a rustling sound was heard from the surrounding bushes. The sound seemed particularly eerie in the silent night. Everyone's heart instantly rose to their throat, their breathing seemed to stagnate, and they stared at the direction of the bushes where the sound came from.
Then, purple-black shadows emerged from the bushes one after another, each with a different shape and exuding a strange aura.
At this time, Chen Han also saw the general appearance of the shadows. They were actually soul bodies. Some looked like humans, with distorted faces and cold light emitting from their empty eye sockets, as if carrying endless resentment; some looked like beasts, with looming figures and flickering purple-black light around them. From time to time, they made bursts of low roars, as if they were evil spirits crawling out of the Nine Nether Hell.
Seeing this, everyone's faces turned pale, and they gripped their weapons even tighter. Many of them even began to tremble slightly. The bearded leader forced himself to remain calm and shouted, "Don't be afraid, everyone! Come closer together! Don't disperse! Let's deal with these evil creatures together!"
Chen Han couldn't help but wonder, what on earth could this thing be? It was so strange. Could it be a soul? It seemed unconscious...
Those creepy souls were particularly creepy in this already silent night. The purple-black light emanating from their bodies made the surrounding darkness seem to be tinged with a strange color.
The next moment, those souls launched an attack without any pattern, just like machines without consciousness that could only attack.
I saw those human-like souls rushing towards me with their fangs and claws bared, and the cold light in their empty eye sockets flashed even more violently, as if they wanted to devour everything in front of them.
The beast-like soul bodies jumped or ran towards the crowd, and the low roars coming out of their mouths made people's eardrums hurt. The faint purple-black light around their bodies turned into eerie air currents, sweeping towards everyone.
Under this obvious pressure, everyone's morale was low.
Even so, the bearded man drew his sword and chopped it down without hesitation. His eyes were wide open, his teeth were clenched, and the long sword in his hand flashed with a cold light as he chopped fiercely at the beast-like soul that was rushing towards him.
However, it was as if it was chopping at a ball of empty air. The long sword passed through without any hindrance. The soul body seemed to be unaffected at all, and still pounced towards the crowd with its fangs and claws. The purple-black light around it did not flicker at all, as if nothing was hit.
The bearded man couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of disbelief. He subconsciously swung a few more times, but the result was still the same. The soul body continued its attack intact.
Suddenly, the crowd became chaotic and let out bursts of wailing.
Chen Han had just broken up a soul, and seeing this, he didn't care about the consumption of his energy at the moment, and immediately used all his strength to circulate the energy in his body.
I saw a strong wood-attributed energy wave spreading rapidly with him as the center. In an instant, several thick vines broke out from the ground beside him, winding like spirit snakes and spreading outwards at an extremely fast speed, killing the surrounding souls with bared fangs and claws.
At the same time, the grass and trees around the forest seemed to be attracted and controlled by this wood energy, swaying one after another. More vines grew out from the grass and trees, constantly joining the team fighting against the soul.
Those vines seemed to have their own consciousness, flexibly wrapping around the human and animal souls and binding them tightly.
Then Chen Han pinched the vines with one hand, and the vines tightened suddenly. The soul bodies were broken up one after another, making a series of creepy wails.
Chen Han did not give these souls any chance and used all his strength to control the dense vines to launch a fierce siege in the woods.
Like well-trained soldiers, the vines, under Chen Han's command, swiftly weaved through the trees, forming a series of green barriers that trapped the invading souls. The vines coiled around and lashed at the trapped souls, their movements swift and precise, attacking them continuously.
The human-shaped soul was tightly entangled in vines, struggling more and more frantically. A cold light flickered in its empty eye sockets, and the shrill wails from its mouth echoed in the woods, but it could not break free from the iron-like restraints.
The beast-shaped soul continued to tear at the vines with its claws. Although the purple-black mist it sprayed out could make some vines wither, more vines immediately surged up and wrapped them tightly again.
For a moment, the woods were a scene of dancing vines, struggling spirits, and flashing lights. The scene was chaotic and intense. Everyone present, still immersed in fear and panic, was now stunned by Chen Han's astonishing manipulation.
Only after the creepy sounds in the woods completely disappeared and there was no more movement did Chen Han slowly stop controlling the vines.
Those vines that were originally dancing and attacking wildly seemed to have received instructions and gradually stopped moving. They slowly retracted into the ground or disappeared into the grass and woods again.
Seeing this, Xiao Mengyue couldn't help but be the first to run over excitedly, her little face full of admiration and praise.
"Brother is so awesome!"
After hearing this, everyone seemed to come back to their senses from the extreme shock they had just experienced.
The bearded man's face was filled with shock and awe. He hurried forward a few steps, bowed deeply to Chen Han, and said in a tone full of apology and respect:
"My Lord, I was blind to your power before. I apologize for any offense and disrespect! I never thought you had such profound abilities. Today, we are so grateful for your help. Otherwise, we would be in great danger."
The other drivers also came to their senses, with awe and gratitude in their eyes. They echoed the bearded brother's words and nodded to Chen Han in thanks.
Chen Yue walked forward and patted Chen Han's shoulder gently, his eyes full of relief. "Chen Han, you must have consumed quite a bit of energy. Hurry up and take a rest to recover your energy."
