Zhuge Zhongyang's Super Nightmare!
Song Shuhang stared wide-eyed at Zhuge Yue, who was only the size of a doll. "What's wrong with you?"
"Song Shuhang!" Upon seeing Song Shuhang, Zhuge Yue quickly scrambled up from under the tree and ran towards Song Shuhang with her short legs.
Song Shuhang bent down and caught the panicked Zhuge Yue... At the same time, his eyes glanced at Jiudeng to the side. It was true that Jiu Jiudeng was right next to Song Shuhang, but Zhuge Yue seemed not to see her at all.
"What happened?" Song Shuhang caught Zhuge Yue patted her gently as if he were holding a child, asking.
"Waaah... it was so scary." Zhuge Yue choked back tears as she began to explain, "This is what happened: after the plane crash, when my brother and I woke up, we found ourselves in the jungle with two other passengers. After that, the four of us worked together to leave the jungle and search for the wreckage and the other passengers."
"However, just as we were about to leave the jungle, we suddenly encountered three strange, inexplicable men. Upon seeing the four of us, they inexplicably attacked us. And what's more, those three strange men could become invisible! I wasn't mistaken; the three strange men suddenly vanished right before our eyes. Zhuge Zhongyang, the other two passengers, and I had no choice but to run away. Afterwards, Zhuge Zhongyang four of us got separated again."
"But something even stranger happened. While I was being chased by an invisible monster, I was driven into a thicket of trees ahead, and suddenly I felt a chill on my feet... Then, I shrunk to the size of a palm. Even my clothes shrank."
"Then, I kept running and running. Maybe it was because I suddenly shrank, that invisible monster couldn't find me anymore, so I escaped here."
"It took a long time for my body to gradually recover, but it only recovered to its current size."
Although Zhuge Yue was choking up, she still managed to explain what had just happened to Song Shuhang in a clear and organized manner.
A chill ran down my feet, and I suddenly shrank? Had I accidentally triggered some formation on Heavenly Island? And who are those invisible monsters?
Song Shuhang turned to look at Jiudeng beside him in confusion. "Miss Jiudeng, do you know what's going on?"
"There are many reasons why someone's body suddenly shrinks... but if it's in this jungle, it's probably the work of this creature, a very rare spirit beast. I only vaguely know that it exists on Heavenly Island, but I've never actually seen it. Your friend probably accidentally came into contact with it and was shrunk. However, that spirit beast should have just eaten and isn't hungry, otherwise your friend would have already become its calories." Jiudeng smiled and said, "As for those invisible strange people, they are probably cultivators who have entered Heavenly Island. As you know, Heavenly Island attracts many cultivators to explore because of its mysterious nature. As for why the cultivators attacked your companion, I have no idea. The cultivators who enter the Mysterious Island include Buddhists, Daoists, Confucianists, demons, monsters, and ghosts—all kinds of cultivators. It's normal for some inherently evil cultivators to enjoy killing."
Song Shuhang nodded secretly—after learning that there might be an invisible enemy, Song Shuhang quietly activated his mental power techniques, 'Spirit Detective Method' and 'Vigilance Method'.
--This has actually involved other cultivators; things are getting complicated.
Moreover, when Jiudeng mentioned 'rare spirit beasts' earlier, he seemed to recall something...
At this moment, Zhuge Yue looked at Shuhang in horror. "Shuhang... who are you talking to?"
Zhuge Yue really couldn't see the Jiudeng?
"Don't worry, it's a friend of mine. She's been hiding in the shadows protecting me. It's thanks to her help that I was able to find you," Song Shuhang reassured him.
Zhuge Yue nodded silently.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find Zhuge Zhongyang and the other two passengers first," Song Shuhang.
As they were talking, Zhuge Yue, who was in his arms, showed a look of fear in her eyes. "Shuhang, be careful!"
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind Song Shuhang.
The figure appeared out of thin air, because he had been invisible until now—he was one of the strange people who could become invisible that Zhuge Yue had mentioned before.
Their invisibility technique was a special secret method. Song Shuhang had been using his 'Spirit Detective Method' and 'Vigilance' techniques, but he still couldn't detect the invisible figure approaching.
After the figure appeared, it slammed a heavy metal rod down hard on Song Shuhang's head.
A faint blood-red light flickered on the metal rod, a sign of the full-force eruption of Blood Qi and qi. This strike was intended to kill Song Shuhang directly.
When!
Caught off guard, Song Shuhang was struck by the stick and fell to the ground. The doll-sized Zhuge Yue in his hand was thrown aside, and he let out a terrified scream.
The invisible strange man revealed himself to be a man with a stubble face, wearing a peach-colored outfit and a bright red belt. Given his bizarre attire and appearance, it's no wonder Zhuge Yue called him a weirdo; he's a real-life version of a creepy uncle.
The strange uncle stared at Zhuge Yue, who had fallen to the ground, licked his lips, and chuckled, "Heh, I didn't expect you to have an accomplice. But it's useless. This kind of novice cultivator who has only mastered a few acupoints is no match for me. Besides, you suddenly shrank so much that I almost lost track of you... But, with your Xiaoke figure now, you must taste even better."
As the strange uncle spoke, he winked his right eye at Zhuge Yue.
Zhuge Yue didn't understand the first part of what the strange old man said, but she could understand the rest. Suddenly, Zhuge Yue felt a slight acid reflux in her stomach and wanted to vomit. "Uncle, I'm not gay!"
"Hehehe, little girl, do you think such a ridiculous lie can fool me? Even if you're dressed as a man, you can't fool my seasoned eyes. There's no time. I need to take your virginity before my two junior brothers arrive. With your special virginity to nourish me, I'm sure I can leap over the Dragon Gate and advance to the Second-Grade Realm in one go. Tsk tsk tsk." The strange uncle said, starting to take off his peach-colored clothes.
"Baby, I will love you well." He winked at Zhuge Yue again.
Zhuge Yue's face turned deathly pale. If her first time was with this kind of weird uncle, she would rather die.
She secretly tried biting her tongue—was she trying to commit suicide by biting her tongue? But could biting her tongue really kill her? And how much of her tongue would she have to bite off? Would biting just the tip of her tongue kill her?
Just then... Song Shuhang, who was beside her, suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, Song Shuhang suddenly appeared in front of the strange uncle. He half-squatted down and pressed his right palm hard against the strange uncle's chest.
"Palm Thunder!" Song Shuhang's deep voice rang out.
A series of crackling electric arcs erupted, and a blinding flash of lightning slammed into the strange uncle's chest.
"Pfft..." The strange uncle spat out blood, his chest was charred black, the energy of the Palm Thunder poured into his body, even directly carbonizing some of his internal organs.
"How is this possible? Palm Thunder! How is this possible? You clearly took a hit from my stick!" The strange old man fell to the ground, his trembling finger pointing at Song Shuhang, his eyes showing disbelief.
That blow from him wasn't the typical thug's head-slapping strike; it was a heavy blow imbued with the power of his entire being's Blood Qi and energy. How could a mere cultivator who looked to have only just opened a few acupoints possibly withstand such a blow?
Song Shuhang felt a lingering fear—the opponent's invisibility technique was truly bizarre, managing to deceive his Spirit Detective Method. If the Spirit Ghost in his Heart Aperture hadn't activated the Golden Buckler in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable if that blow had struck the back of his head.
"Damn it... I actually died at the hands of a lowly cultivator like you." The strange uncle struggled a few times before closing his eyes in resentment.
He took a direct hit from a Palm Thunder, and it was delivered to his chest. Even First-Grade Dragon Gate Leap Realm cultivator couldn't withstand that.
After all, not every First-Grade cultivator is as lucky as Song Shuhang to have a defensive Spirit Ghost protecting them.
"Let's go find your brother," Song Shuhang said, picking up Zhuge Yue, who was about the size of a doll.
But at this moment, Zhuge Yue stared blankly at Song Shuhang.
What did she just see? Lightning suddenly erupted from Song Shuhang's hand, killing that invisible, strange uncle?
Song Shuhang, with his invisibility and ability to generate electricity—is he some kind of superpowered uncle? A real-life X-Men character?
Damn it, my camera is lost! Otherwise, if I had filmed this, it would definitely have been headline news. Zhuge Yue's professional instincts kicked in.
"Are you looking for this little girl's brother? I just smelled a scent very similar to hers; it should be the Zhuge Zhongyang you mentioned," Jiudeng said.
From beginning to end, she showed no intention of interfering.
However, Song Shuhang was already quite grateful that Jiudeng was willing to help him find his way, so he didn't expect too much more.
"However, we'd better hurry. Because that Zhuge Zhongyang is currently very close to the scent of another 'strange person,'" Jiudeng said with a smile.
Song Shuhang's expression changed.
Then, Jiudeng sped up and led the way, while Song Shuhang desperately activated the <Gentleman Travels Ten Thousand Miles> movement technique to keep up.
Soon... Song Shuhang found Zhuge Zhongyang.
At this moment, Zhuge Zhongyang was caught up by a strange uncle with a similarly bearded face, wearing a peach-colored outfit and a bright red belt.
These strange uncles, apart from slight differences in appearance, are very similar in temperament and tone of voice. Let's call this one Strange Uncle 002.
"Finally caught up with you, you Xiaoke, you're pretty fast. I almost lost you... But prey that can run away is more tempting, and it must taste even better." Uncle 002 licked his lips and winked his right eye at Zhuge Zhongyang, who had fallen to the ground.
