The Lord of Void and Real

Chapter 101: Chapter 100 Orange-Red Shrimp Monster

Its head was a hard shrimp head, with two long antennae bending backward from the top of its head. Its body was humanoid, with arms and legs, clad in an orange-red armor. It even had a bow-shaped shrimp tail trailing behind its buttocks.

In one hand of the shrimp monster surprisingly held a golden hammer roughly the same height as Shen Luo. Its shape resembled that of a winter melon with several large spikes on it, looking quite ferocious. On top of that, a layer of blue light radiated from within, indicating that it was not an ordinary weapon.

When the shrimp monster revealed itself, the vortex created by the water flow flickered for a couple of times and quickly closed, as if the pond water was consumed.

Shen Luo had already taken a few steps back, maintaining two to three feet of distance from the shrimp monster and curiously examining it up and down.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The shrimp monster didn’t say anything either, its pitch-black eyes staring at Shen Luo with a vague hint of fear.

“What’s your name?” Shen Luo examined the shrimp monster for a moment and then retracted his gaze, opening his mouth to ask.

“Zhui Tou,” replied the shrimp monster reluctantly, after a few moments of silence. His voice somewhat resonant.

“Zhui Tou? just because your head looks like a cone?” Shen Luo did not mind the shrimp monster’s attitude. He glanced at the sharp head of the shrimp monster and felt a bit like laughing.

Upon hearing this, Zhui Tou involuntarily tightened his grip on the golden hammer in his hand, the long tentacles on his head trembling, seemingly a little angry.

“Don’t fret, Brother Zhui Tou. As long as you keep an open mind, what should you fear with a pointed head? Rare appearances may indicate a rare person! In the future, if you assist me, I promise I will not treat you badly.” Seeing the shrimp monster’s misunderstanding, Shen Luo chuckled and tried to coax him.

“The Human Race is full of no-gooders! They only use us from the Demon Race. I won’t listen to your nonsense!” Zhui Tou snorted and looked at Shen Luo disdainfully. He then turned his gaze towards the Golden Skeleton in the pond without paying attention to Shen Luo.

Shen Luo saw this and the smile slowly faded from his face.

“We have a contract, time to teach you some form of discipline.” Shen Luo calmly said, a layer of black light faintly appearing in his eyes.

Streaks of black light radiated from the eyebrow center of Zhui Tou. Suddenly, he fell to the ground holding his head, letting out painful howls, and his body convulsed.

Shen Luo calmly watched Zhui Tou, who was lying on the ground. The black light in his eyes slowly faded away a moment later.

The black light in Zhui Tou’s eyebrow center disappeared and his shaking gradually ceased. He gasped heavily with his mouth open, looking at Shen Luo with a hint of fear in his eyes.

“Stop, stop, stop.” Zhui Tou slowly stood up, looking beaten, his arrogant demeanor now vanished.

“Brother Zhui Tou, we wouldn’t have known each other, if it wasn’t for the situation at hand, now that we are bonded by the soul contract, let’s not continue antagonizing each other, shall we? The promises I made previously still stand. In case I need your help in the future, there will certainly be a reward. If Brother Zhui Tou needs spiritual materials from the land, you can also let me know, I will do my best to find them for you.” Shen Luo also put on a slight smile and said graciously.

“Alright, you’re the boss here, I’ll do as you say.” Zhui Tou looked dumbfounded, seemed a bit unaccustomed to Shen Luo’s changing attitude. After being silent for a moment, he agreed.

“Of course, I am also very interested in various spiritual materials in the Water Area. If Brother Zhui Tou has surplus materials, you can also show them to me. We can exchange what we have. Wouldn’t that be great?” Shen Luo continued.

“I want a mate; can you make that happen?” Zhui Tou looked at Shen Luo again and asked.

“Don’t give me a hard time. I hope our cooperation will be pleasant. Shall we shake hands?” Seeing this, Shen Luo’s smile thickened. He raised his hand.

Zhui Tou reluctantly raised a pincer. Shen Luo gently put his hand in the pincer.

Seeing Shen Luo do this, the atmosphere between them subtly improved.

“Brother Shen, why did you summon me today?” Zhui Tou asked.

“Nothing in particular, I just want to meet Brother Zhui Tou and get to know your powers, so we can fight side by side in the future.” Shen Luo said with a slight smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhui Tou didn’t say anything else. He gripped the golden hammer in one hand and swung it around. As the golden hammer shadow danced, it quickly brought up a vigorous wind, shooting out several feet.

Shen Luo had already taken a few steps back when Zhui Tou swung his hammer. He only felt a strong wind coming face to face, causing a slight pain on his face, as if being cut by a knife. He quickly retreated again, not only marveling at Zhui Tou’s power but also feeling relieved.

“Yah . . . Heh!”

Suddenly, Zhui Tou dashed and jumped, gripping the iron hammer with both hands, and smashed a gigantic white stalactite that reached the top of the cave not far away.

With a loud “bang,” the three-foot-thick white stalactite was instantaneously smashed into rubble, with fragments flying everywhere.

Despite being seven to eight feet away, Shen Luo felt as if the ground was shaking and the mountains were swaying.

“I have no other skills, just super strength, and in a fight, I rely entirely on this Wave-breaking Hammer.” Zhui Tou put away his great hammer, turned around, and said proudly.

“Brother Zhui Tou has extraordinary strength, which is truly admirable. What level of cultivation have you reached with such strength?” Shen Luo praised, then asked.

“Early Stage of Grain Avoidance, not far from the middle stage.” said Zhui Tou.

Shen Luo’s eyes lit up, it was almost as he had guessed.

“Does Brother Shen have any more instructions?” asked Zhui Tou.

“Nothing for now; I’ll send you back. I’ll call you if there’s anything and remember, I’m a good person.”

After Shen Luo finished speaking, he darted a glance at the emerald green liquid, which was already dwindling in the pond. He gestured to cast the Technique of taming beasts and summoning spirits to open the Water Cave Passage.

Just then, a sudden hum came!

Shen Luo was shocked and quickly looked towards the source of the sound, only to see that in the airspace above the pool, the golden light on the skeleton’s surface began to shake for some reason, and the sound was getting louder and louder. Even the skeleton inside the golden light began to make a “gurgling” sound and started shaking.

Shen Luo gasped. Ignoring everything, he hurriedly took a few steps back with his gestures, staring intently at the Golden Skeleton.

“Bang!”

The golden light suddenly shattered and disappeared. The entire skeleton fell straight from the sky, smashing upon hitting the bottom of the pond and erupting in numerous sparks, which instantly turned into ashes.

Shen Luo hurriedly kept a vigilant watch over the pond, but nothing happened. At the bottom of the pond in the central area, only a small cluster of gold light was flickering. It was a bone fragment remaining after the decay of the corpse.

As Shen Luo was considering whether to go over and take a look, suddenly a voice saying, “watch out,” came from his ear. Following that, a gust of wind picked up from behind Shen Luo.

Zhui Tou abruptly leapt in front, blocking his back.

A streak of yellow light shot rapidly from behind Shen Luo, hitting Zhui Tou’s swinging iron hammer, instantly making a “hissing” corrosive sound. At the same time, white smoke rose up, giving off a strong rotten smell,
