Chapter 163: Old Lyu, What Spell Are You Using?
Hu!
The air-piercing whistle sounded like thunder.
Old Lu had used a lot of strength in this strike. He was determined to turn Song Pa into meat paste.
Song Pa regained his composure and reacted swiftly.
With a thought, the toyol[1] that he had nurtured for many years appeared in front of him.
The toyol looked the same as the boy that Old Lu had seen earlier.
However, Old Lu didn’t stop this time.
As his palm swiftly descended, Song Pa’s expression turned grim, and his heart seemed to have stopped beating.
In fact, he was not sure whether the toyol could withstand this.
Bang!
With a loud bang,
The toyol’s arms became as big as water tanks and forcefully blocked Old Lu’s attack.
Old Lu was especially surprised, whereas Song Pa heaved a sigh of relief.
However, in the next second, the toyol’s arms exploded like balloons.
It cried out in pain as it burrowed into Song Pa’s embrace. Its eyes were watery as it cried, “Father, Podi is in pain, Podi is in pain!”
Song Pa immediately picked up the toyol and jumped to the side.
“Podi, my dear boy, please bear with it.
“Papa promises to give you a scrumptuous feast in a few days,” said Song Pa.
When the toyol heard about the feast, the tears at the corner of its eyes were instantly sucked back. Its expression was no longer pained.
“Father, is what you said true?”
“Of course it’s true. I wouldn’t lie to you,” Songpa said sincerely.
“But now, you have to help me kill those people.” Song Pa added.
The toyol pouted. “But Podi is hungry now and has no arms. So Podi can’t help Father.”
After listening, Song Pa understood what the toyol meant.
He decisively stretched out an arm.
Podi shook its head. “Not enough!”
Song Pa’s expression immediately became extremely grim.
While he was hesitating, Old Lu arrived.
Although the toyol had neutralized the earlier attack, its arms were now gone. How could it resist this time?
“Die!” Old Lu took a big stride forward and stood in front of Song Pa.
Seeing this, Song Pa quickly took out a test tube-sized glass bottle from his shirt pocket.
There was a strong corrosive liquid in the glass bottle, and it was highly toxic.
Song Pa threw the glass bottle at Old Lu.
Old Lu couldn’t dodge in time. The glass bottle broke, and the liquid inside spilled all over his body.
His clothes were instantly corroded by the liquid and became incomparably charred.
“Old Lu!” Old Liu and Lyu Yuhua immediately ran over.
“It’s okay. This still can’t hurt me.” Old Lu patted his chest.
Judging from the skin on his body, the liquid hadn’t hurt Old Lu.
“Song Pa is too cunning. Let’s act quickly and avoid any more complications,” Lyu Yuhua said seriously.
“Okay!” Old Lu and Old Liu agreed.
Right then, they heard a shriek.
They saw that only a section of Song Pa’s body remained.
The lower half of his body had been eaten by the toyol he raised.
Song Pa collapsed in a pool of blood, screaming hysterically.
The toyol continued chewing, looking very happy.
When Lyu Yuhua’s group saw this, they felt particularly disgusted.
However, they didn’t feel much sympathy for Song Pa’s wretched state.
Soon, Song Pa stopped moving.
At the bottom of it all, he had only himself to blame.
It was actually very risky for a black magic practitioner to nurture a toyol. The slightest carelessness would result in a backlash from the toyol.
This was what just happened with Song Pa.
Actually, he had already predicted this when he heard the toyol complain that he was hungry.
He had never thought of leaving this place alive, so he fulfilled some of the toyol’s requests.
However, he had underestimated the extent of the backlash this time. He knew he had to pay a price, but he did not expect to lose his life.
After the toyol finished eating the lower half of Song Pa’s body, it also devoured the upper half of the body into his mouth.
“Old Lyu, how should we deal with this?” Old Liu pointed at the toyol.
Lyu Yuhua pondered for a moment before saying, “Such an evil entity cannot be left alive.”
“Then leave it to me.” Old Lu saw this as his obligation.
At this moment, the toyol suddenly let out a roar like a wild beast after he finished eating.
The entire room shook.
A dangerous aura suddenly spread out, and the expressions of Lyu Yuhua and company changed. They knew that something was wrong.
The toyol’s body expanded like an inflatable doll. Its head reached the ceiling, but it continued to grow.
At the same time, through the Aura Examination Technique, the trio could see that toyol’s aura was getting stronger and stronger. Soon, it surpassed that of the trio, and it was still rising.
Presently, the toyol had gone berserk after leaving the control of Song Pa.
Facing a powerful enemy, Lyu Yuhua’s group felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
They did not dare to take the risk and immediately escaped.
However, the moment they arrived outside, the toyol crawled out from underground.
It had stopped growing, but it was already the size of a three-story building, and its aura was equivalent to a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refinement.
Facing the powerful toyol, Lyu Yuhua and the others could not help but gulp.
Old Lu said with a solemn expression, “I’ll hold it back. You guys go back and find the Sect Master.”
“No, if we’re going, we’ll go together. We can’t leave you alone,” Old Liu immediately replied.
Suddenly, the toyol pounced towards them.
Even though it was enormous, it was extremely agile.
At this, the three men immediately dodged.
Bang!
There was a loud bang.
The toyol instantly missed, and the ground beneath its feet instantly collapsed, forming a huge pit.
After dodging, the trio did not dare to relax.
“Old Lyu, Old Liu, you’d better listen to me. I’ll hold it back and you two will go back and find the Sect Master,” Old Lu proposed again.
“Old Lu, don’t say such nonsense. We won’t leave. We’ll share our happiness and suffering,” Old Liu said firmly.
“Old Liu, you…” Old Lu was furious.
“Old Lyu, you are usually the calmest. This is a critical juncture. Quickly persuade Old Liu.”
Old Lu placed his hopes on Lyu Yuhua.
Lyu Yuhua said calmly, “I don’t think we need to escape.”
“Huh?” Old Lu and Old Liu looked at Lyu Yuhua in astonishment.
Lyu Yuhua did not explain further. He chanted an incantation, and the True Qi in his body surged.
In the next moment, mysterious golden runes emerged around him.
These runes surrounded him like butterflies.
Old Liu and Old Lu were stunned by this sudden scene.
“Old Lyu, you…”
Presently, Lyu Yuhua’s eyes were flickering with a faint white light, as if there were flames dancing within them.
The toyol also noticed him.
The toyol roared at Lu Yuhua and opened its mouth that was filled with sharp teeth.
Lyu Yuhua was very calm. On top of that, he even smiled.
He pointed at the toyol and shouted,
“Suppress!”
In the next moment, the runes around him surged towards the toyol like a tide.
The golden runes that filled the sky were like fireworks as they enveloped the toyol, forming a transparent golden bell.
The surface of the golden bell was covered with the word “suppress.”
At this moment, the toyol seemed to have been trapped in an immobilizing spell. Its eyes were dull, its shoulders were relaxed, and its arms hung down naturally.
Old Lu and Old Liu were shocked by this sight.
“Old Lyu, what kind of spell are you using? Why hasn’t the Sect Master taught us this before?”
Lyu Yuhua chuckled. “I cultivate the same things as you do. What do you mean the Sect Master hasn’t taught you this? You haven’t mastered it.”
“That’s impossible! The Sect Master must have been biased. He must have taught it to you secretly,” Old Lu insisted.
With that, a voice descended from the sky.
“When have I ever been biased?”
