Chapter 3659 Three Forks in the Road

It was chilly inside the cave, and no one knew where the poisonous insects that had been blocking the entrance had gone.

Li Chao asked the magic sword Zhuihun to lead the way, but a thick layer of corpse aura still appeared around him.

There were originally many poisonous insects that wanted to sneak up on Li Chao, but after sensing the corpse aura emanating from him, they all hid away.

Naturally, the three of us were not afraid because we had the medicinal powder sprinkled on us by Grandma Sunny, which could block most of the poisonous insects.

What’s more, Kasan is also an expert in black magic, so we are even less afraid.

It was very quiet in the cave, and the only sound we could hear was the footsteps of a few of us.

After walking forward about a hundred meters, Li Chao suddenly stopped.

Because there are three forks in the road ahead. The middle fork is very narrow, while the forks on the left and right are much wider.

Li Chao was a little hesitant and looked back at us: "Which way should we go?"

"This is our first time here, and we don't know which way to go. But we definitely can't take the middle road." The sloppy Taoist suddenly said.

Li Chao was puzzled: "Why can't I leave?"

"The path in the middle is too narrow. It's difficult for one person to go in. Besides, there are many poisonous insects in that path. When those poisonous insects attack us, we won't even have a place to hide." The sloppy Taoist priest chuckled.

"Which way should we take?" Li Chao was a little confused.

"It's very simple. We take a copper coin and throw it into the air. If it lands heads, we go left, and if it lands tails, we go right. We just leave it to fate." The sloppy Taoist priest said casually.

"We are doing serious business, are you kidding me?" Li Chao was very unhappy.

"What's the big deal? If we took the wrong path, we can just come back and try again. Or do you have a better idea?" The sloppy Taoist priest looked indifferent.

Li Chao also believed the sloppy Taoist priest's lies and really took out a copper coin and threw it over his head.

After the coin fell to the ground, we leaned over to take a look and found that it was the front side.

Li Chao walked straight towards the fork in the road on the left without saying a word.

I found that Li Chao is a very interesting guy. Although he is rude, his thoughts are quite childish, just like a kid.

We didn't say anything, just followed Li Chao and continued walking forward.

After walking a distance forward on the left fork, the number of poisonous insects in front suddenly increased.

Some poisonous insects were crawling back and forth on the stone walls, some were wandering around on the ground, and some moths were buzzing around them.

These poisonous insects come in all shapes and sizes: centipedes, scorpions, giant centipedes... and some poisonous insects that I can't name. There are all kinds of them.

We don't know which road the little girl holding the Tianzhao Spear took. I guess she is definitely not sure which intersection to take, so now we can only take our chances.

So we walked forward cautiously for a distance.

Suddenly, some dark shadows appeared in front.

Those dark shadows all looked like humans, sitting on both sides of the cave wall.

When we got closer, we found that they were all dead people. They looked very old and were wearing clothes unique to the Dong village.

What we saw before were all bones eaten by poisonous insects, but it was a bit strange to see a complete corpse here.

Li Chao stopped again when he saw the corpses.

Without even saying hello, the boy activated the magic sword Soul Chaser and attacked a corpse sitting on the side of the cave wall.

When his magic sword Zhuihun fell on the corpse, the corpse shattered instantly and turned into a large group of colorful flying insects, flying towards us.

Li Chao is such a clumsy guy, just like the sloppy Taoist priest who patted the snake eggs that Mrs. Tang gave birth to.

Seeing this situation, several of us retreated a distance at the same time.

Even Li Chao was a little panicked. He probably didn't expect such a thing to happen.

While retreating, Li Chao urged the magic sword to chase the soul and launched an attack on the flying insects.

The flying sword was very smooth under his control, flying up and down, left and right, and sometimes even spinning in the air.

The flying sword looked fancy, but its effect was minimal because the poisonous insects were too small and there were many of them. The flying sword only killed a small part of them, and most of the flying insects still attacked us.

At the critical moment, the sloppy Taoist priest stepped forward and waved the lightning-struck wooden sword in his hand, which immediately spurted out a ball of red flame, igniting some of the approaching flying insects.

However, those flying insects seemed to have the ability to sense danger. When the sloppy Taoist priest just shot out the flames, some of the flying insects dispersed.

Next, the flying insects continued to attack us.

Seeing this situation, I had to take action. I took out the Shengxie Sword and waved my hand, and the Shengxie Sword flew out.

Since my Shengxie Sword was integrated with the dragon soul, it has also become a flying sword.

The power of my flying sword is not small. When it is activated, there is the sound of a dragon's roar. Wherever the Shengxie Sword passes, a force of ice is emitted.

Under my guidance, the flying insects approaching us were frozen by the icy power emitted from the Shengxie Sword and fell to the ground one after another.

Under my guidance, the Shengxie Sword flew back and forth. Three ice souls were integrated into the sword body, doubling its power.

None of the flying insects were spared and were all killed.

Finally, I waved my hand and the Shengxie Sword fell back into my hand. I couldn't suppress the smile on my lips.

I finally got to show off my skills in front of Li Chao. My flying sword is pretty good.

After the Shengxie Sword went back and forth for so long, even the temperature inside the cave suddenly dropped a lot.

Li Chao looked back at me and suddenly said, "Oh, this sword is pretty good."

"It's just so-so. Compared with the Divine Sword Soul-Chasing, it's still a little inferior." Although I said this, I was still proud in my heart.

At this time, Kasan suddenly said: "The little girl holding the Tianzhu Spear definitely did not leave here. These people placed on both sides of the stone wall are to prevent anyone from entering this place. These bodies are intact. If the little girl came, these bodies would probably be gone."

"What Kasan said makes sense. How about we go back?" the sloppy Taoist priest followed up.

"Since we're here, maybe these three forks in the road will eventually lead to the same direction. There's no need to turn back." As he said that, Li Chao urged the flying sword and was about to walk towards the corpses.

We didn't care about that. Since the little girl was not in front of us, there was no point in continuing walking. So the three of us turned around involuntarily and walked back the way we came.
