My Dog Says I’m Too Weak And Stole SSS-grade Skills For Me - Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Ghost Demon Guarding Treasure Recognizes Lu Huai!

On the other hand, Lin Xiaomeng had a complicated look on her face.

If Lu Huai wanted to go, they would definitely not be able to get involved.

Although she really wanted to move together with Lu Huai, if they were to encounter any danger, Lu Huai would have to split his attention to protect them.

As such, she could only put an end to this thought.

“Then Student Lu Huai, shall we meet at the shuttle’s landing point in three days?”

Teacher Lan Yue had not said anything about them being not allowed to split up.

“Sure. You guys be careful.”

Lu Huai nodded.

With that, the team that had just been formed split up.

Wei Anbo looked at Lu Huai’s back as he left and said worriedly, “Will it really be okay for Student Lu Huai to go on his own like this?”

“You don’t understand how powerful Lu Huai is.”

Lin Xiaomeng said slowly.

The night sky was still slightly bright.

Lu Huai rapidly advanced toward the pillar of light in the distance.

According to the map, the location of the pillar of light was probably near one of the high-risk areas in the center.

The map clearly stated that there was a high possibility of demonic general-level demonic beasts appearing in these high-risk areas.

This was also the reason why Lu Huai was so confident.

Lu Huai did not know if it was because of the pillar of light, but he saw many demonic beasts running away in a hurry when he was on his way toward the light pillar.

These demonic beasts formed an extremely small beast tide.

But they did not really have any offensive power.

There were even a few demonic beasts that did not react at all when Lu Huai ran into them, until he stabbed them in the heart.

Lu Huai had obtained four tubes of demonic beast blood essence by chance through this.

After advancing for some time, he eventually discovered that there were not many traces of demonic beasts in the surroundings.

The pillar of light in the sky slowly dimmed, and the entire sky returned to darkness.

Lu Huai stopped in his tracks and calmed his breathing.

He could already clearly sense an oppressive aura not far ahead of him.

“It should be the demonic beast that Lin Xiaomeng was talking about, the one that’s guarding the natural treasure, right?”

Lu Huai approached carefully.

A medium-sized basin appeared in front of

him.

However, Lu Huai was shocked by the scene around the basin.

The bones of not only humans but also

demonic beasts were scattered around the basin. The ghastly white color was extremely terrifying.

Lu Huai had never seen such a scene before.

However, he still managed to calm himself down and observe his surroundings.

Green plants could be seen around the basin, but they had all dried up.

There were still traces of water in the center of

the basin, but there really was not much water

left.

It could be deduced from this that this basin originally had a water source.

However, it was unclear as to why the water source had disappeared for no reason.

The closer it got to the center of the basin, the colder things looked.

At the very center, everything had already been frozen into ice.

At the center of the crushed ice, an icy blue six-petaled ice flower bloomed quietly.

This should be it… But where’s the demonic

beast that’s supposed to be guarding it?

Lu Huai did not act rashly.

However, he could not find any traces of any

demonic beasts even after looking around for some time.

The situation would change if he delayed any longer. Therefore, Lu Huai went to the center of the basin using windward step and descended down the slope.

He got closer and closer to the ice flower.

Once he was right before the flower, he reached out his hand, planning to quickly pick up the

ice flower and leave.

Hehehe…

A bone-piercing chill suddenly assaulted him.

Lu Huai jumped up vigilantly.

He lowered his head to take a look.

An illusionary figure was faintly visible.

“This is… a ghost?”

Lu Huai muttered. He landed on the other side

of the area and stared at the illusory figure. He finally understood why he could not see any demonic beasts.

This was a very special type of demonic beast.

It was a soul body that had condensed after the death of a demonic beast.

They were called ghost demons and were also a type of demon.

The special thing about them was that their entire body was illusory.

In other words, it could travel anywhere it

wanted.

The ghost demon missed its attack. It then

opened its mouth and let out a silent roar at Lu

Huai.

Lu Huai, who was on the receiving end of the roar, felt dizzy.

He was alarmed. This ghost demon’s demonic

skill was very special. It directly attacked the human brain.

The books he had read that talked about them

said that if you could not kill the ghost demon in one strike, then you should not fight it, or your life would be in danger. However, the treasure was right in front of

him, and Lu Huai would not give up easily. He instantly activated the supplementary

ability of the body tempering art.

Thump!

A shock wave instantly reached the ghost demon.

Then, there was a buzz.

The ghost demon was like a gust of wind,

directly blown away.

“Hm?” Lu Huai was stunned for a moment.

Is this ghost demon so weak that it can’t even

withstand the wind? It actually died in one move?

Lu Huai thought that it would release its demonic skill to block it. However, since the enemy was already dead,

Lu Huai did not intend to think about the problem too much.

But then, the familiar feeling of dizziness soon

came again.

Lu Huai was shocked. It turned out that the

ghost demon had not died, but had disappeared and regrouped!

The ghost demon’s attack missed again.

Lu Huai landed on the shore of the basin and stared at the ghost demon. “So you’re that human boy…”

An indistinct voice sounded from all directions.

Lu Huai looked around. Other than him, only the ghost demon was present. As such, he was able to quickly infer that the

one who had spoken was none other than the ghost demon.

“You know me?”

Lu Huai stared at the ghost demon. The ghost demon let out a creepy cackle. It was

impossible to tell where the sound was coming from.

“I did not expect to see you here…” “If I kill you, my lord will definitely reward

me…”

The ghost demon rushed at Lu Huai at full

speed, not planning to give him any time to react.

Lu Huai had been on guard the entire time, so how could he possibly let the ghost demon succeed?

As what had happened previously, it ended up missing its attack again.

Lu Huai was not in a hurry to attack. Instead,

he was thinking about the meaning behind the

ghost demon’s words.

The ghost demon obviously knew him.

Adding that onto the beast tide he had encountered when he was riding the railcar, it

was apparent that the demonic beasts alread knew of his existence.

But how did these demonic beasts achieve that?

Could it be that the demonic beasts had been

able to get information on him through the alliance’s network?

That was impossible!

Lu Huai once again dodged the attack of the ghost demon.

He would not be able to get anywhere thinking

of these things on his own, so he decided to ask

Dean Liu when he got back.

As he thought of this, the bell sound rang

again.

The ghost demon scattered and regathered, then regathered and scattered.

In the end, after several attempts, the ghost

demon looked at Lu Huai with an inexplicable

expression.

“You’re indeed powerful…” “There’s no need to hurry, the time for you to

die has yet to come…”

As its voice faded away, the ghost demon

disappeared from the spot. Lu Huai continued to remain on guard for

some time. But after realizing that the ghost

demon would not reappear, he heaved a sigh of relief.

It had to be said that ghost demons were really difficult to deal with.

If it was not for his quick reflexes, he would

have been struck by the ghost demon

numerous times.

In the end, the ice flower in the center of the

basin fell into Lu Huai’s hands. The ice flower was cold to the touch, and the

chill seeped into his body through his skin,

causing him to shiver.

After Lu Huai plucked the ice flower, the

crushed ice around the basin melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It did not take long for a small pool of water to

form in the basin.

With the treasure already in hand, Lu Huai had

no intention of staying here any longer. After confirming his location, he jumped up again and quickly left the area.

Heavenly Divine Academy. “Teacher Lan, what’s with the strange movements in the Horse Plains?” Mo Yue asked, frowning.

Lan Yue only stared at the detector in front of

her. Just a second ago, the powerful fluctuation

had disappeared.

It was as if it had never appeared.

“I don’t know. Let’s report this to the dean

first. Perhaps a demonic general had

appeared.”
