Chapter 434: 243 Professor Cao, You’ve Been Possessed! (Please subscribe! Please vote monthly!)_2

"Mr. Ye? You... weren’t you just fighting that monster inside?"

Ye Jiuyun sheathed the knife back into its scabbard and said, "Yeah, as soon as I went in, that thing discovered me. I thought I was in a bad situation, but when the real fight started, I realized that the inside monster was just for show—scary in appearance but not that strong in battle.

Moreover, it seemed to be injured. I took the opportunity, broke its spine with a few slashes, and then a thrust through the heart killed it."

Ah, what...

The crowd listened to Ye Jiuyun’s words, dumbfounded.

Really?

The monster inside had already been killed by Ye Jiuyun in such a short time?

Was it that easy?

They had thought it was going to be a tough fight.

According to the information given by Professor Zhou, that nine-headed monster was very strong.

Their entire exploration team was helpless against that monster.

And Ye Jiuyun killed it so easily?

Although Professor Cao and others were skeptical,

there was no need for Ye Jiuyun to lie to them. Besides, after Ye Jiuyun came out, there indeed was no more movement from inside the cave.

The crowd followed Ye Jiuyun into the cave with doubts.

Upon entering the cave, everyone looked around.

They discovered, not far away, there truly was a monster corpse.

Ye Jiuyun had chopped off four of the monster’s nine heads.

A large amount of demon blood spilled onto the ground.

The monster lay on the ground with a big gash in its heart.

It was dead beyond any doubt.

Seeing that the legendary underground nine-headed monster was truly dead,

Professor Cao and the others felt relieved.

They had expected a fierce battle, but it turned out to be so easy.

Well, easy is good!

Who on earth would always want to have a fierce battle?

After Ye Jiuyun killed the nine-headed monster,

he said, "I looked around just now, and I think Professor Zhou and the others must have fallen down that cliff. Professor Cao, can you try contacting Professor Zhou with the walkie-talkie?"

Professor Cao nodded; he took out the walkie-talkie again.

This time, they quickly got in touch with Professor Zhou.

After a brief exchange, they confirmed that Professor Zhou was indeed at the bottom of that cliff.

Hearing that Professor Cao and his team had killed the nine-headed monster,

Professor Zhou and the others were also overjoyed.

With the nine-headed monster dead, they were finally safe.

Then, Professor Cao and the others saw several people starting to climb up from the bottom of the cliff.

It was indeed Professor Zhou and his team.

Professor Zhou and the others climbed up the cliff.

In just a few minutes, they were almost to the top of the cliff.

Professor Zhou said to Professor Cao, "Old Cao, what are you waiting for? Give me a hand! My old bones are almost falling apart!"

Professor Cao nodded at the words and was just about to reach out.

The next second,

Swoosh!!

Sword Qi slashed out from behind Professor Cao.

Just as Professor Cao’s hand was about to touch Professor Zhou’s,

the Sword Qi arrived, chopping down on the hand extended by Professor Zhou.

Professor Zhou’s hand was directly severed by the Sword Qi.

"Sssss!!!"

Professor Cao was stunned.

He quickly turned his head to look back.

Seeing Professor Zhou’s severed hand, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The Sword Qi was unleashed by Heavenly Master with a single slash.

Professor Cao asked, "Heavenly Master? Why attack and hurt someone? Professor Zhou is our colleague!"

Professor Cao couldn’t believe that Heavenly Master would strike Professor Zhou, cutting off his hand, no less.

Had he gone mad?

Professor Zhou was a national treasure-level expert just like him.

With a hand chopped off, how could this be explained?

On the back of the Green Ox, Qin Hao sheathed his sword back into its scabbard with a ’clang,’ his face expressionless.

He said, "Infinite Heavenly Venerable, Professor Cao, you’ve been bewitched! Look back again, do you really see Professor Zhou in front of you?"

If it had really been Professor Zhou, Qin Hao wouldn’t have slashed with his sword.

He had come to save people, not to kill.

Unfortunately, the one in front of Professor Cao was not the real Professor Zhou.

He had been bewitched, all of them including Ye Jiuyun had been.

Listening to Heavenly Master’s words, Professor Cao was a bit baffled.

What did that mean?

The person in front of him was clearly Professor Zhou, his old friend of dozens of years.

Could it be a mistake in recognition?

But Heavenly Master said no?

What was going on?

As Professor Cao looked back again,

the scene in front of him made him gasp in shock.

When he looked again, where was Professor Zhou?

Instead, right in front of him was a huge purple-red monstrous flower!

Just now, when he was face to face, it was this thing.

This monstrous flower, at this moment, was blooming with a strange purple-red glow, emitting a faint, eerie fragrance.

Moreover, within the pistil were rows of sharp teeth.

The entire flower had been split in the middle by the sword slash unleashed by Heavenly Master just now.

At present, this huge monstrous flower was twisted in form.

Obviously, it was severely injured.

Professor Cao backed away a few steps, his back breaking out in a cold sweat in an instant.

"This... this... the thing I was face to face with just now, was this?"

"How could this be? I clearly saw old Zhou climbing up from the bottom of the cliff!"

Professor Cao couldn’t believe it.

Even Professor Hao next to him, the researchers, a large group of armed police, and several poachers couldn’t believe it either.

Because what they saw just now was the same scene as Professor Cao.

They had clearly all seen Professor Zhou!

How could it have been such an ugly monstrous flower?

At that moment, a young team member from the research institute shouted, "Professor, look, the corpse of the nine-headed monster from just now is also gone!"

Everyone turned to look and then realized, not just Professor Zhou was fake.

The corpse of the nine-headed monster they all saw just now was also fake.

The monster’s corpse had disappeared too.

Could all of this have been an illusion?

But...

How could that be?

How could this monstrous flower have such terrifying illusion-creating powers?

To trick everyone unconsciously, and moreover, they all saw the same scene?

Professor Cao felt increasingly frightened as he thought about it, his forehead sweating.

Thankfully, Heavenly Master’s strike broke the Illusion Realm.

Otherwise, had he just reached out to pull up Professor Zhou, it would have been like sticking his hand into the mouth of this strange flower full of sharp teeth.

If not for Heavenly Master’s intervention, the one with a severed hand or even dead could have been him.

While Professor Cao was feeling extremely wary of the Illusion Realm,

in front of everyone, the strange flower that had been wounded by the slash from Heavenly Master just now was starting to go mad with rage.

Countless vines sprouted from beneath the monstrous flower, rapidly extending across the ground.

It launched an attack on everyone.

Everyone panicked.

Qin Hao slightly frowned.

"Infinite Heavenly Venerable, wicked beast! How dare you be so aggressive when death is upon you! Heavenly Master stands before you, yet you dare to hurt someone? You shall not be spared today!"

Qin Hao didn’t even glance at the vines extending from the ground, his gaze locked squarely on the monstrous flower.

The next second, everyone saw Heavenly Master’s eyes starting to shine with light.

A thick cloud of flames surged wildly from deep within Heavenly Master’s eyes,

shooting straight out.

Qin Hao: "You mongrel, look at me!"

His eyes conjured two golden fire dragons from the flames, both dragons striking with fury, vivid as life, one charging straight at the purple-red strange flower.

The flower was swallowed whole by the fire dragon.

Flames roared and blazed.

In just a moment, the entire monstrous flower was burned to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

The purple-red monstrous flower, dead!

This was the first time Qin Hao had officially used this Pupil Skill.

It was the True Fire Spirit Eyes rewarded by the system a long time ago.

Qin Hao had hardly had the chance to use it until now.

Now he found that his True Fire Spirit Eyes, apart from breaking the Illusion Realm, were also very effective in burning these plants.

One burn, one hit.

After he annihilated the purple-red strange flower with the might of thunder,

the flames in his eyes dissipated.

Professor Cao and the others looked at him with grateful eyes.

Nevertheless, Ye Jiuyun was still puzzled about many things.

He asked, "Heavenly Master, what on earth is going on? How did we all fall for it? How did we inexplicably succumb to the Illusion Realm?

And what was with that flower just now? How could it create such a powerful illusion? Moreover, so many of us failed to notice anything amiss."

Ye Jiuyun was truly frightened.

The purple-red strange flower had the terrifying ability to create illusions.

It was bad enough that people fell for it without any awareness.

But the key was that so many people failed to detect any anomaly.

If it hadn’t been for Heavenly Master being here to break the illusion, they might have all perished right here.
