Chapter 218: Just a Deathly Struggle
Chen Yile was stunned by this sudden scene. He quickly took a few steps back and looked at the man vigilantly.
The man's face showed a painful expression, and his eyes were filled with fear and despair.
At the moment of death, his soul left his body and was out of the control of Chen Yile's psychic eyes.
Chen Yile watched the man's soul gradually dissipate, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
He didn't know the man's identity or why he used such an evil Taoist method.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a huge conspiracy behind this.
At this time, the cave was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the atmosphere became extremely weird.
Chen Yile took a deep breath and decided to leave this place first.
Find a way to investigate the truth of this matter.
He turned and walked towards the cave exit, his figure gradually disappearing into the darkness.
Just as Chen Yile was about to step out of the cave, an irresistible force suddenly pulled him back and he fell heavily to the ground.
Before he could get up, he heard a shrill roar. Looking up, he saw that the dead man had turned into a demon. His eyes flashed with a strange blood-red light, his fangs were ferocious, and his whole body exuded a disgusting stench.
"Want to leave? Not that easy! Leave your life here!" The evil ghost roared fiercely, the sound seemed to penetrate the soul, causing Chen Yile's eardrums to sting.
As the evil ghost roared, a strong wind suddenly blew in the cave, and the sound of the wind was mixed with countless sharp howls of ghosts and wolves, which made people shudder.
Then, a group of dark shadows surged in from all directions like a tide, instantly surrounding Chen Yile. These evil spirits all had hideous faces, some with long tongues, some with mutilated bodies, and some oozing with black pus and blood, emitting a pungent stench.
Chen Yile's heart trembled, and he stood up quickly, tightly gripping the demon-subduing pestle in his hand, and watching the evil spirits around him vigilantly.
His eyes were firm and sharp, without any trace of fear.
"Hmph, you think you can stop me with just a bunch of you rabble?" Chen Yile snorted coldly, his voice full of disdain.
The evil spirits seemed to be enraged by Chen Yile's words. They let out a shrill scream and pounced towards Chen Yile with their fangs and claws bared.
Chen Yile's figure flashed, and he avoided the attack of an evil ghost like a ghost. At the same time, he swung the demon-subduing pestle in his hand violently. A golden light flashed, and the evil ghost was instantly knocked away, hitting the stone wall of the cave and turning into a cloud of green smoke and dissipating.
However, the number of evil spirits was too large. As soon as Chen Yile dealt with one, several more pounced on him.
He dodged left and right, and the demon-subduing pestle in his hand flew up and down. Every swing was accompanied by golden light, which repelled the approaching evil spirits one by one.
But the evil spirits seemed endless, surging up one after another, making Chen Yile gradually feel a little overwhelmed.
At this moment, a huge evil ghost swooped down from above his head, its claws like sharp blades, flashing with cold light.
Chen Yile had no time to dodge and could only raise the demon-subduing pestle to block. With a loud bang, Chen Yile's arm went numb from the immense impact and he involuntarily took several steps back.
Before he could gain his footing, several more evil spirits rushed over from the side. They opened their bloody mouths, revealing their sharp fangs, and bit Chen Yile fiercely.
Chen Yile dodged to the side, and the demon-subduing pestle in his hand thrust out, piercing directly through the throat of an evil ghost.
But another evil ghost took the opportunity to grab his arm, and its sharp claws dug deep into his flesh, causing blood to gush out immediately.
Chen Yile roared in pain, raised his leg and kicked the evil ghost away.
There was a flame of anger in his eyes, and the demon-subduing pestle in his hand was dancing even faster.
However, the attacks of the evil spirits became more and more crazy, and Chen Yile suffered more and more wounds, and his physical strength gradually declined.
Suddenly, the man who turned into an evil ghost burst into wild laughter, waved his hands, and muttered something.
The ground in the cave began to tremble violently, and black mist rose from the ground, instantly filling the entire cave.
The mist contained a powerful evil force that made Chen Yile feel dizzy.
"Hahahaha, today is the day you die!" the evil ghost man laughed triumphantly.
Chen Yile gritted his teeth and endured the discomfort in his body. He knew he couldn't fall down like this.
He quickly took out the soul-calming bell from his backpack and shook it vigorously.
"Ring, ring, ring..." The crisp sound of bells rang out in the cave, as if it had a magical power that could penetrate the black fog and reach the depths of the evil spirits' souls.
When the evil ghosts heard the bell, their movements suddenly became slow and painful expressions appeared on their faces.
Chen Yile was overjoyed when he saw this.
While shaking the soul-calming bell, he performed the psychic eye technique.
His eyes instantly turned deep blue, with a strange light flashing in his pupils.
With the help of his clairvoyant eyes, he can clearly see the weaknesses and soul trajectories of evil spirits.
Chen Yile seized the opportunity and thrust the demon-subduing pestle in his hand into the chest of an evil ghost.
The light on the demon-subduing pestle burst out instantly, directly shattering the evil ghost's soul and making it disappear completely.
Seeing this, the other evil spirits retreated in horror.
But the evil ghost man was not willing to accept defeat. He roared again and commanded the evil ghosts to continue attacking.
Driven by it, the evil spirits pounced towards Chen Yile again.
Chen Yile knew that this was not a solution. He had to find a way to find the weaknesses of the evil spirits and defeat them in one fell swoop.
While dealing with the evil spirits, he observed the environment in the cave.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on the river in the cave.
The river runs through the entire cave. The water is crystal clear, but it emits an icy and biting chill.
Chen Yile's mind moved and he thought of a solution.
He deliberately exposed a flaw, luring several evil spirits to pounce on him.
Then he turned and ran towards the river. When he was almost close to the river, he suddenly jumped up and jumped into the river.
The river water was so cold that Chen Yile couldn't help but shiver.
But he didn't care about that. He swam quickly in the water to avoid the attacks of the evil spirits.
After the evil spirits chased to the river, they hesitated for a moment, as if they were a little afraid of the river water.
But amid the evil ghost man's roar, they still jumped into the river and swam towards Chen Yile.
Chen Yile moved flexibly in the water, holding the demon-subduing pestle and the soul-calming bell tightly in his hands.
When an evil ghost approached him, he suddenly emerged from the water and smashed the evil ghost's head with the pestle in his hand.
