The crystal coffin, after feeding all its energy back to Zhang Yang, suddenly broke free from his control.
It flew autonomously to the two crystal teeth, and a crack opened on the coffin lid, directly sucking the two teeth in.
Boom!
A flash of white light flickered.
Everyone only saw black smoke rising from the crystal teeth.
Suddenly, the crystal teeth let out a strange cry.
Finally, the shrill screams disappeared, and the crystal teeth floated alone in the air.
This!
Chi Yan and the others looked at the crystal teeth, and suddenly felt that the aura on them had changed.
The crystal teeth held by Chi Long at the time were filled with evil.
But after being purified by the crystal coffin, the two crystal teeth exuded a pure aura.
"It's been purified?" Zhang Yang also exclaimed in surprise.
Then, he wanted to step forward to pick up the two teeth to examine them.
However, before he could grab them, they were directly snatched away by the crystal coffin and sucked into the crack of the coffin.
After that.
The crystal coffin disappeared directly, merging into the imprint on his palm.
"I!"
Zhang Yang was speechless.
This crystal coffin seemed to have its own consciousness at times, completely beyond his control!
...
Now that Chi Long's men were all dealt with.
Cleaning up the battlefield was also very simple; with the giant crocodiles around, it was a mouthful each.
The heavy stone that had been weighing on Chi Yan and the others' hearts was finally lifted.
Chi Yan immediately led his tribesmen to pay respects to those tribesmen who had been massacred by Chi Long.
Zhang Yang, on the other hand, returned to the resting place, waiting for nightfall.
Because they still had another enemy to deal with!
That night.
Night fell.
A scene even more bizarre than the previous day appeared.
The singing tonight was even more penetrating.
It was louder than what Zhang Yang had heard on the bluestone path yesterday.
And this was from a considerable distance from the bluestone path.
Moreover, the glowing insects in the canyon seemed to have become more numerous.
The entire Shennong Canyon was lit up.
The roars of ferocious beasts echoed throughout the canyon, reaching the outside.
It could be said.
The entire canyon was in turmoil!
Now, there was no need for Chi Yan to notify him; Zhang Yang had already noticed something was wrong and directly found Chi Yan.
"Are we acting tonight?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Yes, but tonight's action might be very dangerous. We had tribesmen go out to check earlier, and almost all the ferocious beasts in the canyon were affected by the crystal skull's chanting."
"We must act tonight before these ferocious beasts start killing each other. Otherwise, once the crystal skull absorbs these beasts, its strength might increase significantly, exceeding our estimated range."
"It's even possible that in the end, we won't be a match for the crystal skull," Chi Yan said solemnly.
Zhang Yang frowned upon hearing this.
The crystal skull's abnormal behavior tonight was definitely not accidental.
"Do you think it has something to do with the purification of the crystal teeth? Is it taking a big risk by doing this?" Zhang Yang asked.
"This possibility is very high. After all, these two crystal teeth were given by the crystal skull. It might have sensed that we have a way to restrain it, which is why it has become like this."
"Tonight should be our final battle with the crystal skull. If we can withstand it, even if the crystal skull doesn't disappear, it will pay a heavy price," Chi Yan replied.
"Without further ado, let's go. We'll try to intercept the ferocious beasts and prevent them from stepping onto the bluestone path," Zhang Yang said seriously.
...
Soon.
Zhang Yang and the others arrived at the bluestone path.
Along the way, they found many ferocious beasts with dazed eyes, roaring and gathering here.
Zhang Yang and his group chose to wait for the prey!
Not long after.
The first batch of ferocious beasts arrived!
Chi Yan and the others took out their bows and arrows, shooting a large volley to try and drive away these beasts.
The arrows were extremely sharp, each one piercing a beast.
But the beasts seemed to feel no pain, moving forward like walking dead.
"This won't do!" Chi Yan frowned.
"These beasts are like they're possessed, completely disobedient!"
A white light flashed from Zhang Yang's palm, and the crystal coffin appeared. "Let me try and see if I can purify them."
Instantly.
The crystal coffin hovered in the sky, a white light enveloped the beasts, and a powerful suction force appeared!
The beasts' forward momentum did halt somewhat.
Zhang Yang and the others could see large amounts of black gas being sucked away by the crystal coffin and then evaporated.
"This is promising!" Chi Yan rejoiced.
Zhang Yang nodded silently and continued to activate the crystal coffin, purifying and erasing the black energy within the beasts.
Roar!
Instantly.
The beasts, having returned to normal, let out roars of pain.
Their consciousness cleared, they could feel the pain from the arrows stuck in them.
They scattered and fled.
Having dealt with the first batch, Zhang Yang also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that there was a solution!
Soon, the second batch of ferocious beasts arrived. Zhang Yang followed the same procedure.
But this time, an accident occurred!
The singing from within the bluestone path became even more piercing and loud!
Even the guiding glowing insects gathered together, enveloping these beasts!
"Patriarch Chi Yan, you drive these insects away!" Zhang Yang's gaze sharpened.
These insects were blocking the purifying light of the crystal coffin!
Chi Yan and the others immediately took action.
Wielding their spears, they continuously hacked at the swarms of glowing insects.
The purifying light of the crystal coffin once again awakened these beasts, causing them to scatter and flee.
The second batch of ferocious beasts was successfully rescued!
But!
When the third batch of ferocious beasts arrived, the situation changed.
Everyone only felt a flash of black and white light, and the piercing singing seemed to explode in their ears.
The crystal skull instantly flew out from the depths of the bluestone path, descending directly above the ferocious beasts.
"Damn humans, you've ruined my good deed! I won't let you off!" The crystal skull's pupils emitted an eerie glow, shooting towards Zhang Yang.
"Hmph!"
Zhang Yang quickly snorted and used his True Dragon Qi to dispel the bewitching power.
The crystal skull's gaze was too terrifying!
Just looking at it had almost caused Zhang Yang to go mad!
"Continue!" Zhang Yang's expression was solemn.
He activated the crystal coffin again, and a large amount of purifying light descended, preparing to restore the beasts to normal.
But an accident occurred!
The crystal skull's chanting was filled with impact.
It directly repelled the purifying light, making it impossible to purify the beasts.
Then.
The beasts' pupils quickly turned red. Stimulated by the chanting, they became frenzied.
Roar!
This time, the beasts did not kill each other. Instead, they charged towards Zhang Yang and his group!
"Not good!"
Seeing the enraged beasts charging at them, Zhang Yang and the others' hair stood on end!
These tens of thousands of ferocious beasts were not weak.
Each one was at the Yuanfu realm!
The beast tide they unleashed could exhaust Zhang Yang and his group to death!
"Run!" Zhang Yang shouted.
He quickly ran deeper along the bluestone path.
The main reason was that the path outside was blocked by ferocious beasts, so they could only run this way.
Chi Yan and the others also turned and ran immediately.
However.
As they ran towards the bluestone path, the crystal skull suddenly revealed a sinister smile...
