I Just Won’t Play by the Book - Chapter 384

384 Breaking the Formation
“Squeak!”

The moment the person who set up the array swallowed the green Gu worm, the eggs in the entire array emitted an annoying noise, and the noise became louder and louder, making people feel extremely anxious.

In midair, Meng Sipei couldn’t help but cover her ears to calm herself down.

Even Yin Jianghong frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

“Ah ~~~”

!!
A comfortable groan came from the mouth of the person who set up the array. The skin on his body gradually began to peel off, revealing the red flesh and blood vessels inside.

Although Yin Jianghong didn’t know what kind of bug he had eaten, she didn’t intend to just watch.

Yin Jianghong gathered two balls of black liquid with both palms. He instantly appeared behind the person who had set up the array and threw one ball. Then, he appeared in front of the person who had set up the array and struck out with his palm.

“Tsk ~~~”

The sound of something evaporating rang out. Be it the black water that Yin Jianghong had thrown from behind the person who had set up the array or the black water that he had slapped at the person who had set up the array, they were all instantly evaporated by the indigo Celestial Chi that had erupted from the person who had set up the array!

“How is this possible?!” Yin Jianghong’s eyes widened in disbelief.

The person in front of him who was on par with him just a moment ago actually relied solely on mystic qi to make him unable to get close!

Sensing Yin Jianghong’s surprise, the person who set up the array laughed wildly and said,”Do you know fear now? Too late.”

After saying that, his body suddenly expanded by nearly twice its original size, and his red flesh turned black.

‘Strange…Form?

Jiang Beiran could not help but complain in his heart.

The Alien Spell Forger struck out with his palm. The speed was so fast that Yin Jianghong could not defend in time. She could only raise her left arm to block her head.

“Oh!”

Yin Jianghong, whose left arm had been hit, let out a muffled groan. He could clearly feel that his left arm had been broken.

What did he eat?’

Yin Jianghong had thought that the person who had set up the array would only increase his cultivation by one or two levels after eating the insect, but it seemed that it was far from that!

Before Yin Jianghong could think further, the Alien’s next palm came again.

“Roar!”

The moment Yin Jianghong turned into a spirit, the person who set up the array seemed to have seen through Yin Jianghong’s search for a book. He opened his mouth that was filled with sharp teeth and let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Yin Jianghong’s Ethereal form immediately fluctuated violently and quickly turned back into a corpse.

“Puff!”

Yin Jianghong coughed up a mouthful of blood. He did not wipe the blood off, thinking that he knew the monster was about to attack again!

Below, Jiang Beiran looked at Meng Sipei, who was still watching Yin Jianghong’s battle with the Alien, and shouted,””Come back! Let’s continue with our work.”

Meng Sipei snapped out of her daze and flew back to Jiang Beiran’s side.

“Take this and go…”

“Bang!”

Just as Jiang Beiran was instructing Meng Sipei what to do, Yin Jianghong fell straight in front of him, creating a huge crater.

“Give up. You have no chance to leave here alive.”

The person who set up the array waved his hand casually, and Meng Sipei was sent flying by the wind generated from his palm.

After dealing with Meng Sipei, the person who set up the formation slowly walked toward Jiang Beiran, his eyes sizing him up.

“You…”

As soon as the caster opened his mouth, three options popped up in front of him.

[Option 1: Save Yin Jianghong and feed him the Silver Plume Star Pill. [Completion Reward: Yaolang Scripture (Earth Grade High-Rank)]

[Option 2: Continue breaking the array. [Completion Reward: Houtu Mysterious Book (Earth Grade Low-Rank)]

[Option 3: Slit your palm. [Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]

“Cut your finger?”

Although it was a little strange, he still chose three immediately and cut his right palm with his fingernails.
Just as he was about to ask who this masked man was, he suddenly felt his body tremble violently.

“Why…”

Unable to control his body, the person who had set up the formation slowly knelt down on the ground. He glared at Jiang Beiran and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth,””You… do … Wha- Ah!”

After a painful roar, the body of the alien began to collapse. It was like a leaking ball that began to collapse and shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye. Black blood and flesh sprayed everywhere.

At this moment, Yin Jianghong, who had crawled out of the pit, was a little confused. How did this monster, who was so arrogant just a moment ago, suddenly become crippled?

‘Could it be…’

Yin Jianghong looked at the masked man in disbelief and could not help but feel a little afraid.

When he used his magic treasure to chase after the person who set up the array, he didn’t understand the situation at all. He didn’t know where this space was, nor did he know who this masked man was. He only knew that this masked man seemed to be the enemy of the person who set up the array. Only then did he feel slightly relieved.

Now that he saw the masked man finish off the monster in just a few seconds after he crawled out of the pit…

‘Who exactly is he…’

Yin Jianghong did not dare to act rashly. After all, he did not know whether the other party was a friend or a foe. What if he was someone who would kill anyone he saw?

In the strange atmosphere, the person who had set up the array finally returned to his original appearance. However, his body was already somewhat shattered and he was seriously injured.

At the same time, the Green Venomous Insect that he had just swallowed crawled out from his heart and flew toward Jiang Beiran at lightning speed. In the palm of his hand.
