I suddenly had a bad feeling.
Because no matter what was in the sarcophagus, Tang Jiu was definitely using his own life as bait, or in other words, as a sacrifice.
Does he want to awaken the things in the sarcophagus to deal with us?
An ominous premonition suddenly enveloped my heart.
I think since Tang Jiu can risk his life, he must be confident enough.
This also shows that what is in the coffin is definitely not something we can deal with.
At this time, everyone was staring at the coffin warily.
After a few seconds, a series of creepy sounds suddenly came from inside the coffin. It felt like something was chewing on human bones. The sound was very crisp.
I think this must be something inside the coffin, eating Tang Jiu's body.
When everyone heard this voice, their faces all changed.
After all, this is eating people?
After this sound continued for nearly two minutes, the coffin finally became quiet.
Immediately afterwards, a huge hand poked out from the sarcophagus.
All of us subconsciously took two steps back, and then stared at the huge palm with alert expressions.
This palm is more than twice as big as an ordinary person's hand, and the palm is bloody, and the nails are extremely sharp.
However, this hand felt like there wasn't much flesh and blood on it, it was extremely dry, and the skin on the hand was tightly wrapped around the bones like old tree bark.
It seems to be another mummy, probably a blood puppet.
However, judging from this huge palm, you can tell that this thing is definitely different from the three blood puppets outside.
The huge palm suddenly grasped the edge of the sarcophagus, and then, a huge corpse sat up directly from the coffin.
The corpse is also much taller than ordinary people. Just sitting in the coffin, it feels like it is almost the same height as us.
This is indeed a mummy, but its face has now grown flesh and flesh, and is completely plump, but the area below the neck is still shriveled.
It looked very weird, like a living head embedded in a dry corpse.
In short, it feels like the head and neck of this thing are completely two people.
Wait, I suddenly realized why this giant corpse's face looked the same as Tang Jiu's?
There should be no mistake. Although the face was also bloody and could not be seen clearly, there was no doubt that it was Tang Jiu.
Now I finally understood. Tang Jiu's head actually grew on the shoulders of this giant corpse. No wonder it felt like the corpse's head and the position below the neck were not the same person at all.
"Lin Baqian, you must have heard of the King of Hell carrying a corpse, right? This is the real King of Hell."
Tang Jiu said with an eerie smile, and then slowly climbed out of the coffin.
That huge body was immediately revealed in front of us, more than three meters tall.
This is really a giant corpse.
Although it is much different from the giant corpse controlled by Qi Yuan, this head is already very big compared to a normal person.
"You're really hardworking."
The Eight-faced Yama looked at the mutated Tang Jiu and said with an indifferent expression.
"The King of Hell told you to die at the third watch, and he will never leave anyone alive until the fifth watch. Lin Baqian, accept your fate."
Tang Jiu said as he jumped up and pounced directly from below.
When Wang Junfeng and the others took a look, I quickly retreated and hid.
After all, this thing is here to settle accounts with the Eight-faced Yama, so there is no need for us to take action.
The Eight-faced Yama obviously knew this, so he didn't even dodge, he directly formed a spell and slapped it with his backhand.
As soon as the talisman was slapped on the giant corpse, it was slapped back into the pit.
Immediately afterwards, the Eight-faced Yama took out the small coffin from his arms, then opened the coffin lid, kneaded it and recited a series of incantations.
Then he raised his hand and touched the coffin in his hand, and suddenly two dark figures floated out from the coffin.
After the two figures appeared, one on the left and one on the right floated beside the Eight-faced Yama, looking like they were protecting the law on the left and right.
At the same time, the terrifying evil spirit began to spread again.
Wang Junfeng and I quickly took a few steps back to avoid being rushed by this evil spirit.
Unexpectedly, this old guy, Eight-faced Yama, not only raised evil ghosts, but also raised more than one.
Judging from this situation, the soul-gathering coffin in his hand should not only be raising evil ghosts, but perhaps something more sinister.
This old guy is really unfathomable.
After the Eight-faced Yama summoned two evil ghosts, he directly made two talismans and shot them on the two evil ghosts respectively.
Then he figured out the trick and recited a series of spells.
"The laws of heaven and earth, the vastness of the universe, the ferocious gods and evil spirits, are all at my disposal, as urgent as laws and decrees..."
As the incantation was uttered, the Eight-faced Yama raised his hand and pointed, and the two evil ghosts immediately rushed towards the giant corpse under the pit.
In fact, it is difficult for me to understand what state this giant corpse is in now, because you said it is a corpse, but now it is controlled by Tang Jiu's consciousness.
But if we say that he is Tang Jiu, this is not entirely true, because now Tang Jiu only has one head embedded in the shoulder of this giant corpse.
So it's difficult to accurately define the current state of this thing.
However, this thing is obviously much more powerful than the blood puppets outside. Eight-faced Yama directly summoned two evil ghosts, but neither of them was a match for this giant corpse.
After they bit each other for a while, one of the evil ghosts was torn from the middle by the giant corpse and was directly pulled into two halves.
But this thing is a soul after all, an intangible thing, and it will not die even if it is pulled in half.
On the contrary, the talisman that Eight-faced Yama slapped on the evil ghost was knocked off.
The evil ghost lost the blessing of the talisman and instantly turned into two masses of black energy, which soon merged together and turned into a dark figure.
When Yama saw that this evil ghost was no match for the giant corpse, he quickly took out the soul-gathering coffin, raised his hand and took it in.
"If you want to use evil spirits to deal with me, don't you know that I am the real King of Hell now?"
Tang Jiu laughed ferociously, then grabbed the remaining evil ghost, pressed it hard on a stone coffin next to it, and then rubbed it back and forth.
It looks somewhat funny like that, but its terrifying power makes us terrified.
With a sudden force from the giant corpse, the sarcophagus was directly crushed into pieces.
The evil ghost also had its neck cut off and soon lost its ability to fight.
The entire face of the Eight-faced Yama turned pale at this time. Presumably the spell was broken and he also suffered the backlash.
However, the Eight-faced Yama didn't say anything. He just kneaded the secrets and chanted the mantra again, raised his hand and tapped the coffin in his hand.
