Chapter 84
Li Chu held the pure yang sword in his hand and faced the ghost king. He was a few hundred feet away.
The clouds and wind were light, and the sword slashed down.
The moment he raised the tip of his sword, the ghost king’s eyes suddenly flashed with his life.
......
It was a ghost born from the River Styx in the ghost Kingdom. Unlike the ghosts that were formed after death, it had never lived in the world of the living.
This kind of pure Yin ghost was usually gifted, so after hundreds of years of cultivation, it had the strength of a ghost king.
The classification of the ghost Kingdom in the human world was very simple and crude. No one cared about wandering ghosts and wild ghosts, but the stronger resentful spirits or evil ghosts would be recruited as ghost soldiers. A ghost soldier might need hundreds of years to become a ghost general, and climbing up would depend on talent and luck. Above the ghost general was the ghost commander, and above the ghost commander was the ghost king.
The ghost Kingdom was in chaos, and there were hundreds and thousands of ghost kings of all sizes. Life and death often alternated, and the gap in strength between each other was also quite large.
The top ten ghost kings were called the ten palaces, and each of the ten palaces had many little ghost kings under them.
It was initially recruited by the ninth Hall Master and joined the ninth Hall.
The ninth Hall Master was also a ghost of the netherworld River, so he took great care of it.
However, the good times did not last long. Not long after he joined, the original Ninth Hall Master was challenged and killed by the great ghost king under his command.
When the new ninth Hall Master ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to exile the previous direct descendants.
It had been in exile all the way, and finally entered the sixth Palace.
And then,
Good things don’t last long.
The sixth and third Palace had started a war.
Disputes over the fiendish Yin lands were not rare in the ghost Kingdom, but it was rare to see a large-scale war between two halls over territory.
It just had to come in time.
In the end, the sixth Palace suffered a crushing defeat. Although it was lucky enough not to die in battle, it also submitted to the third Palace as a captive.
This might not be a bad thing. The third Palace had been the king of the ghost Kingdom for thousands of years, and its influence was extremely huge.
But the good times don’t last long
Before it had even joined for a hundred years, the other four palaces could not stand the third Palace’s overbearing style and joined forces to suppress it.
The third Hall Master, one of the strongest experts in the ghost Kingdom, had fallen.
It had promptly transferred to the most powerful faction in the Alliance, the fifth Palace, and managed to survive.
After that, because they did not divide the third Palace’s huge territory properly, the four palaces had a war.
Haojing Yingluo didn’t even appear.
The fifth Palace, which was the most powerful force, was the first to be eliminated. The fifth Palace Master was severely injured and left all his underlings to escape in a hurry.
The ghost king under the fifth Palace’s command fled in all directions, and it was also almost devoured.
It was tired, it was really tired.
It couldn’t understand why ghosts had to suffer being ghosts.
And Yingluo always makes things difficult for me.
As a result, it entered the second Palace, which was the most aloof from the world.
The second hall Master was one of the oldest ghosts in the world. The number of years he had lived was uncountable, and it could only be confirmed that he had existed since ancient times.
The current ghost king didn’t even know how strong it was, and no one had ever dared to challenge it.
Who knew that
The good times didn’t last long.
Not long after he joined, the second hall Master disappeared.
If he was challenged and killed by his subordinate ghost king, then at least there would be a new king to ascend the throne.
However, his sudden disappearance meant that the second Palace had suddenly lost its protective umbrella, and no other ghost king could replace the position of the second Palace Master.
The second Palace, which had no leader, instantly became a hot topic.
The other eight palaces were like vicious dogs pouncing on food, coming forward to fight for it, and it was another earth-shaking chaotic battle.
That war had engulfed the entire Ghost Country, and countless people had died. It was a terrifying war.
Ghost kings died every day from all the major forces, not to mention the second Palace, which was the prey.
Therefore, it wanted to seek refuge with other forces.
However, it was rejected. Once, twice, three times, it was rejected nine times.
The other nine palaces refused to accept it!
Because at this time, it was already a little famous among the many ghost kings-although its strength was unremarkable, it had quite a rich experience. Whichever Palace they chose to side with, that Palace would be in trouble.
The other ghost kings affectionately called it ‘jinx’.
In its rage, or rather, in its desperation, it could only betray the ghost Kingdom and come to the human world.
When it first appeared, it was at its weakest, so it hid in this hidden corpse cave where no one was close to, using the corpse Qi in the cave to cultivate.
After leaving the ghost Kingdom, without the supply of Yin Qi, its spirit realm would soon dry up. The ghost generals were still fine, but the ghost soldiers in the spirit realm would not be able to withstand it.
...
Coincidentally, in a small town nearby, there was a place filled with Yin and evil. It temporarily connected the spiritual realm to that ghost building.
It felt that the heavens were helping it.
Everything seemed to be going according to plan. As long as it quietly waited to recover its strength, it could also become the largest ghost king in the surrounding thousand miles.
This was hard to imagine in the ghost Kingdom.
It had even envisioned itself conquering a large territory in the world of the living, and then bringing its subordinates back to the ghost Kingdom.
Then, he would make all the ghost kings who had once looked down on him kneel in front of him and say to them loudly, ” I’m not a jinx!
He was exhaling with pride!
However, Yingluo
The good scenery was still beautiful.
Before that day came, an old Daoist who was ready to die came.
He didn’t hesitate to die with him in his fighting style, causing the ghost king to involuntarily feel fear. Just as he wanted to avoid the sharp edge, the other party unexpectedly turned around and placed a powerful seal.
...
This letter was the regret of so many years.
He didn’t offend anyone. He could only say that he was unlucky to encounter such a thing.
However, what was even more unfortunate was that it suddenly realized that this seal could be used to protect itself.
The moment the seal was broken.
The mighty sword Qi also fell.
After recalling his miserable and short life, the ghost king couldn’t help but feel confused.
Yingluo, am I really Yingluo?
Boom–
A huge beam of red sword Qi fell from the sky, piercing through the cave above and the mountain.
In a moment of desperation, the ghost king mobilized all the ghost flames to surround himself. In an instant, they solidified infinitely, turning into a black egg. The unlucky one became the unlucky one, and the eggshell seemed to be an extremely tough shield.
However, when the pillar of sword Qi landed on it, a soft sound was heard.
Pfft.
It broke upon contact.
The ghost king’s mind was completely blank, leaving only shock.
Although he was unwilling, it seemed like Yingying would never have the chance to go back again. He was unwilling to die Here.
Its dark silver body that was filled with sin disappeared in a second, turning into nothingness and ashes. Not even a speck of dust was left behind.
Li Chu held the pure yang sword tightly in excitement.
I finally have special effects too
A burst of white light that only he could see gathered on his body, and he was immediately greatly satisfied.
The experience points given by this ghost king were outrageously high!
Li Chu had not been training much recently, but the experience points he had gained from killing the great evils had pushed him to level 75.
It seemed that he still had to make a windfall in order to get rich.
......
Just as Li Chu went to rescue Gongsun Rou, he didn’t notice that a wisp of an ethereal spirit had quietly slipped out of the cave.
This was an extremely weak remnant of soul energy that would only appear after a powerful living being died due to extreme unwillingness, anger, resentment, and other emotions.
This soul was undying. If it found a suitable place and was nourished for thousands of years, it might be able to recover its previous life’s soul and memories.
In the human world, there were even ghost Immortals cultivated by ghosts.
However, Yingluo
This weak spirit floated to the entrance of the corpse cave, but was discovered by a pair of skeleton eyes flickering with ghost fire.
“Hehe, I’m sure the little Daoist must have been very unwilling before he died, right? There shouldn’t be many geniuses like him in the human world, but he became the king’s stepping stone to break the seal.”
It laughed hideously and raised its finger.
Pfft.
It easily crushed this ghost.
Just as the king had told them, no one could escape from this hole, not even a trace of soul!
At this point, the ghost king had completely disappeared from the human world.
Hearing that the voice in the cave had calmed down, Hong Ling said, ” “Let’s quickly welcome the king out of the mountain!”
“En!” Bai Jian nodded.
The painted skin and the skeleton walked into the cave together, their faces full of smiles.
