Xia Ruoxue noticed that the golden-armored Taotie was covered in scars, and the armor covering his body had many damaged and destroyed places. Wisps of curse energy continued to spread from the cracks in the armor.
Jin Jia Taotie's wound, corroded by the curse energy, was still bleeding with blood and showed no signs of healing.
Xia Ruoxue was horrified. Looking at the appearance of Jin Jia Taotie, it seemed that he had been haunted by a curse since ancient times. His wounds were bleeding and he had endured pain for countless thousands of years.
Those wisps of curse aura were so strong that Xia Ruoxue was certain that even if Ye Chen was here and used the holy water of the underworld, he might not be able to cleanse it!
One can imagine how terrifying the cursed energy cannot be completely purified even by the holy water of the underworld.
"Haha, you bastard, get out of here if you are smart enough, or I will kill you with one knife!"
After a brief period of shock, Zhou Hong quickly regained his composure and saw that Jin Jia Taotie was seriously injured.
"If I'm not mistaken, the curse energy on your body should be caused by the Eight-Curse Dragon Bone Lock, right? The Eight-Curse Dragon Bone Lock, the legendary treasure of the Thirty-Three Days of Hongmeng, has the strongest curse energy, and even the underworld water cannot clean it away.
You are cursed and unable to protect yourself, yet you still want to stand up for others?"
Zhou Hong took a step forward, and the Ten Directions Killing God Hook in his hand burst out with a dazzling edge.
If it were Jin Jia Taotie in his prime, Zhou Hong might be extremely afraid of him.
But at this moment, the golden-armored Taotie was haunted by curse energy, seriously injured, and his strength was not as good as before. Zhou Hong was sure to kill him.
"You are not welcome here, get out of here, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The golden-armored Taotie snorted, and a ferocious aura erupted from its body. Although it was riddled with curse energy and seriously injured, it still had a good chance of killing Zhou Hong in the tomb because of its advantageous position.
"Haha, come on then."
Both sides recognized that they had a better chance of winning, and Zhou Hong didn't waste any words. He suddenly slashed out with the Shifang Killing God Hook. The curved hook knife had an extremely sharp blade and cut straight into the weak spot of Jin Jia Taotie's wound.
"Star God's Evil-Destroying Formation!"
The golden-armored Taotie slapped its claws on the ground, and immediately, a large formation of starry lights suddenly appeared, carrying a trace of tyrannical aura of destruction and warding off evil spirits, and headed straight towards Zhou Hong.
Jin Jia Taotie was very aware of the sharpness of the Shifang Killing God Hook, so he did not use force, but used the formation in the tomb.
This Xingyue Tomb has large formations arranged everywhere. As the guardian beast, the Golden Armored Taotie naturally knows how to use each large formation. With the advantageous location, it is sure to kill Zhou Hong.
Tsk tsk tsk!
Wisps of evil-destroying starlight came to Zhou Hong brazenly.
Zhou Hong's face darkened, and he hurriedly waved the Ten Directions Death Hook to resist. His skin was illuminated by the starlight, and there were signs of chills and cracks, as if he had been attacked by a severe winter.
"Evil door!"
Zhou Hong gritted his teeth. If it were a head-to-head confrontation, Jin Jia Taotie was no match for him, but when Jin Jia Taotie borrowed the formation, he was immediately in danger.
"break!"
In the midst of lightning and flint, Zhou Hong grabbed the two guards and threw them into the formation without mercy.
Tsk tsk tsk!
Bursts of starlight exploded, piercing like crossbows. The two guards screamed "Ah", their bodies were immediately pierced, blood spurted out, and they died on the spot.
Zhou Hong took advantage of this opportunity, dodged past the formation, and slashed at Jin Jia Taotie's body with a knife.
"not good!"
The golden-armored Taotie's expression suddenly changed. He didn't expect Zhou Hong to be so ferocious. He directly used two guards as a cover to break through the star formation's attack and kill him with a powerful sword.
Poof!
Zhou Hong's blade was so fast that Jin Jia Taotie couldn't dodge and was immediately cut, bleeding profusely.
The golden-armored Taotie was covered in battle armor, but Zhou Hong's blade was precise, cutting into the gaps in its battle armor, cutting flesh and bones, and was very fierce.
As soon as the golden-armored Taotie was injured, the wound was immediately entangled with curse energy. Wisps of gray-black curse energy seemed to come from hell, constantly torturing it, and the wound could not stop the bleeding at all.
This is the curse of the thirty-three-day Hongmeng treasure, the Eight-Curse Dragon Bone Lock.
The eight-curse Dragon Bone Lock has a very strong curse that can curse a person's lifespan, luck, marriage, Taoist heart, body, feng shui, relatives and friends, and future.
Eight curses, all of them fatal.
This eight-mantra dragon bone lock was later tempered by the Supreme Goddess and became a true treasure of witchcraft. Its lethality is even more terrifying. It is said that it has been obtained by Diyuan Palace.
Jin Jia Taotie's body has long been cursed. Once a wound occurs, it will never heal and will only bleed until death!
"Hahaha, how can you be my opponent when you are cursed? Just accept your death!"
Zhou Hong looked up to the sky and laughed, looking at the miserable state of Jin Jia Taotie bleeding all over his body, his eyes became even more ferocious, and he slashed wildly with his sword.
"Lord Mingyue, leave quickly!"
Seeing how fierce Zhou Hong was, the golden-armored Taotie used his claws in his backhand to tear out a wisp of strong wind and send Xia Ruoxue away first.
Xia Ruoxue said "Ouch" and was blown by the strong wind, as if she was being sucked into the turbulent flow of space. She couldn't help but keep flying towards the depths of the tomb.
"Want to leave? Chase me!"
Zhou Hong snorted and slashed at the golden armored Taotie with his sword. At the same time, he waved his hand and ordered his men to chase Xia Ruoxue.
"Yes, young master!"
All the guards carried their weapons and went to chase Xia Ruoxue.
"It's not your turn to run wild on this territory!"
The golden-armored Taotie's scarlet eyes suddenly became fierce. He endured Zhou Hong's chops and used his own blood as a guide to crazily activate the Star God's evil-killing array.
Wow!
Infused with the blood of the Golden Armored Taotie, the light of the Star God's Evil-Destroying Formation exploded to the extreme, with wisps of starlight continuously releasing and flickering.
Under the endless starlight, several guards were immediately shot and killed.
The remaining guards reacted quickly and evaded quickly, but they were also frightened into a cold sweat.
"You evil beast, do you want to fight for your life?"
Zhou Hong's face changed slightly. Jin Jia Taotie was suppressed by his murderous sword energy. It was already difficult for him to resist, but he didn't expect that his essence and blood were now burning. It was clear that he was going to fight for his life.
The golden-armored Taotie is riddled with curse energy and seriously injured. If he continues to burn his essence and blood, he may die.
"Fortunately, I asked Lord Emperor Shi to bring you some talisman edicts."
"Xiri Shenguang, suppress it for me!"
When Zhou Hong saw the stars constantly surging around him, he did not dare to neglect it and immediately crushed the Sun Talisman Edict.
Jin Jia Taotie wants to fight for his life, but he doesn't want to die.
Fortunately, he was cautious and had already prayed to Emperor Shitian and asked for a few talismans before entering the Xingyue Tomb.
At this moment, the Sun Talisman was crushed into pieces, and a brilliant scorching sun suddenly appeared in the air, releasing an extremely blazing divine light.
Under the divine light of the sun, the surrounding starlight suddenly dimmed.
The golden-armored Taotie's eyes were cracked, but he was still burning his essence and blood desperately. Even if he risked his life, he still had to protect Xia Ruoxue and inherit the mantle of the God of Stars and Moon.
It has guarded the Xingyue Tomb for tens of thousands of years in order to find a suitable heir.
And Xia Ruoxue is undoubtedly the most suitable successor to the God of Stars and Moon!
