Chapter 255: Chapter 170: Ghost Bride (Third Update)
“This person, so fierce.”
Qi Shijian couldn’t help but turn back to look at Mo Shiyao. This Zhong Shiguan didn’t seem like a watered-down opponent at all!
But considering the goddess would surely not lie, Qi Shijian gritted his teeth, released a large swarm of poisonous insects, and attacked again.
“Let’s go together, we have three from the Secret Realm on our side, we might not necessarily be unable to fight.”
Yu Wenjing snorted coldly, he was very confident as he walked toward Zou Minzun, leading a group of Righteous Disciples to confront him.
And with Tang Lie dealing with Gongyang Ji, Qi Shijian and Mo Shiyao cooperated to hold off the watered-down Zhong Shiguan.
The battle seemed still fightable, but with the arrival of the black fog came a large number of fierce ghosts, which had all thrown themselves into the fight as well.
Pfft!
A few minutes later, Yu Wenjing spurted out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking at Zou Minzun across from him with a mix of shock and anger.
To be exact, he was looking at the densely packed hundreds of fierce ghosts behind Zou Minzun. The grade of these ghosts was at least third-grade, not to mention fourth and fifth-grade, and even the presence of sixth-grade terrifying beings, which was really hair-raising.
Already, several bodies of Righteous Disciples had fallen near Zou Minzun. These were all high disciples from the Immortal Sect, with cultivations of the Ninth Level or even Ten Levels of the Yunling Realm, but still, they were being killed and forced into retreat.
“Is this the legendary Heavenly Soul Formation? We can’t confront it head-on, let’s retreat first.”
Yu Wenjing’s face was extremely ugly, as Qingzhou and Jingzhou were adjacent, he had heard of this formation.
It is said that this formation had the ability to summon souls and ghosts, usually set up in the wilderness to attract wild wandering spirits and fierce ghosts. It needs regular human sacrifices inside to feed the ghosts for slaughtering, so as to foster fear and elevate their grade. When deployed in battle, it becomes a Ten Thousand Ghost Array.
He had only heard of it, but he didn’t expect to witness it with his own eyes today, and it was such a massive Heavenly Soul Formation, covering the entire East Victory City.
Under Yu Wenjing’s leadership, a group of Righteous Disciples didn’t even consider continuing the fight and fled in a very flustered manner.
“Run, if you’re not scared, then how can you provide more fear?”
Zou Minzun’s lips curled up into a weird smile as he watched the Righteous Disciples flee, then turned to look at Han Ruyan.
Whoosh!
The curse mark on Han Ruyan’s back turned red and hot; it turns out the real curser was not Zhong Shiguan, but Zou Minzun.
“It hurts so much.”
Han Ruyan suddenly stiffened, the red wedding dress on her body tightened increasingly, making it impossible to breathe.
“Ru Yan.”
Han Mother and Han Jinghuan both cried out, wanting to rush over, but were firmly held back by the family retainers and fled back deep into the Han Mansion.
“Almost let that useless Zhong Shiguan ruin my plans. The Heavenly Spinning Jade Light Body, plus dying wronged on her wedding day, the Ghost Bride that will be cultivated, I wonder how strong she will be!”
Zou Minzun’s hands constantly formed seals, and the resentment and fear that filled the city from those who had been killed was continuously absorbed by the black fog and then poured into Han Ruyan’s body.
Gradually, Han Ruyan’s figure began to change, with a faint glow flashing in her eyes that were bottomless, seemingly hiding endless resentment and sorrow.
As time went on, Han Ruyan, dressed in a luxurious red wedding dress, had a complexion as pale as paper, lips so faded they were nearly transparent, filled with a chilling aura, some death qi emerged on her body, and although she still looked beautiful on the outside, it was a chilling sort of beauty that made people feel uneasy.
…….
Inside the Han Mansion.
Su Jie was also in action. In the midst of the black fog, other people easily had their vision limited, and even Insect Control Technique couldn’t work well, but thankfully, Su Jie still had Divine Sense, a form of exploration carried out through the Divine Soul, which the black fog could not block.
Su Jie trailed far behind the group of Righteous Disciples. After being scattered by Zou Minzun, these people fled in panic. Su Jie’s gaze mainly locked onto Qi Shijian.
Gurgle!
At his side, a butcher ghost, wearing a blood-stained apron and holding a pig-killing knife, and with a corpulent build, appeared around the corner.
The butcher ghost slowly raised the pig-killing knife in its hand and slashed through the air, causing a shiver down Xiao Fengyuan’s spine, who was walking next to Su Jie. A line of blood appeared from his brow to his groin, deep enough to show bone, nearly slicing him in two.
“Hmph, seeking death.”
Wiping the fresh blood from his face, Xiao Fengyuan’s right hand produced a Mid Grade Magical Artifact, the Blood Cang Spear, and hurled it directly at the ghost, impaling its chest and nailing it to the wall, rendering the fourth-grade fierce ghost incapable of moving.
“Quick battle, quick decision.”
Leading the way, Su Jie with Ning Xinyue following closely with small steps, Xiao Fengyuan quickly dealt with the butcher ghost. This sort of battle had already happened no less than four times, with fierce ghosts of both third and fourth grades dying at their hands.
Ten minutes later, Su Jie’s eyes twitched, and he finally saw the opportunity.
It was the Righteous Disciples, anxious to leave East Victory City, who were now split up and looking for the weakness in the Heavenly Soul Formation, with Xiao Guanglian and Mo Shiyao leading one group, and naturally, the sycophant Qi Shijian was among them.
…….
“Damn it, where is the way out of this Heavenly Soul Formation?”
At the edge of the East Victory City walls, Xiao Guanglian once again found himself back at this location.
As soon as they left the range of East Victory City and entered those deep black mists, they would lose their direction and become disoriented.
Walking and walking, they would find themselves back at the starting place.
For these top-notch disciples, if it were just a simple maze formation, they could break it with a wave of their hand.
However, the maze effect that came with the Heavenly Soul Formation was so perplexing that even these disciples couldn’t find any way to break it.
“True Word—Thousand Ranges Wind!”@@novelbin@@
With the Heavenly Constitution in her mouth, Mo Shiyao unleashed dense moonlight blades that sliced a suddenly appearing fierce ghost into a thousand cuts, blasting it into oblivion.
Whew!
After catching her breath, Mo Shiyao said, “Qi Shijian, have your insects found a way out?”
“No, the insects also get lost in the black mist.”
Qi Shijian shook his head repeatedly, indicating his helplessness.
“Useless, as one of Ghost Ridge Palace’s strongest disciples, how can you not find an exit? It’s bad enough that you lost to a watered-down Secret Realm like Zhong Shiguan.”
Mo Shiyao’s brows furrowed slightly, her mood very displeased.
“Miss Mo, that Zhong Shiguan isn’t weak…”
Not wanting Mo Shiyao to underestimate him, Qi Shijian spoke up. In a previous fight with Zhong Shiguan, he had been beaten badly, and if not for the other disciples coming to his aid, he might have died at the hands of Zhong Shiguan.
“Still making excuses, when I and Xu Changqing, a mere mortal from the Martial Arts world, could force him back, how could he be so strong if he had to abandon his physical body?”
Mo Shiyao’s voice grew colder and more impatient, causing Qi Shijian to hesitate, feeling that something was off.
“Miss Mo, quick, save me!”
As they were discussing with troubled minds, suddenly, a voice came through.
Turning their heads, Mo Shiyao and others saw through the black mist, Xu Changqing, whom Mo Shiyao had just mentioned, running towards them while occasionally looking back as if being chased by some fierce ghost.
What do you think?
