Volume 1: Ghosts of the Underworld Cry... Chapter 52: The Thousand Year Old Ghost King Appears (2)
It is said that with this seal in hand, even gods and ghosts will retreat. This divine object is indeed extraordinary. If it's really the Fah Qiu Treasure Seal, then the legend of subduing evil spirits must be true too.
The dark shadow stopped its pointless attack, pondering whether to get the soul first. For him, the biggest purpose of temporarily breaking the seal this time was the soul. If he didn't get the soul and was dispersed as a condensed form of black cloud, it would be a waste of effort. In other words, as long as he got the soul, being dispersed wasn't unacceptable; after all, his primary goal was to eliminate the old man first.
Thinking of this, the black shadow no longer hesitated and quickly flashed towards the stone house.
Behind the wall on the left side of the stone house, Jiang Feng and Yuan Tian lay motionless on the ground. Jiang Feng's legs had almost given out, and when he saw the black shadow rushing over, he hastily pressed down Yuan Tian, who was trying to get up: "It's okay, Ah Long anticipated this earlier, don't worry, they're fine." His voice was extremely low, barely audible over the sound of mosquitoes buzzing, but Yuan Tian still understood what he meant. He looked at Jiang Feng suspiciously and then lowered his head again.
About a hundred meters away from the stone house, behind a large tree, Chen Long's eyes flickered as he stared at the black shadow that flashed into the stone house: "Thousand-year-old Ghost King? Yao Xi, Yao Xi? Could it be?" He was startled by his own speculation, his face changing color, with an uncertain expression: "Impossible, absolutely impossible! How is this possible?" It seemed like he was talking to himself, yet also seemed like he couldn't believe it.
Next to Li Yun, who was holding the seriously injured Zhu Xiaocui in her arms, looked at Chen Long's eyes with a complex gaze. She didn't know what Chen Long was thinking, why Yin Rou had died like this, and if there wasn't any other way. Was this really the best outcome?
It seemed as if he had seen through her thoughts, Chen Long's gaze towards Zhu Xiaocui was icy cold: "If it weren't for her, Miss Yin wouldn't have died either. She deserved to die! This is already the smallest sacrifice!"
In the distance, Xie Nan was lying down, and at this moment, Lu Jie had already squatted there to guard him. Lu Jie's face looked very bad, and anyone who encountered such a complex and unpredictable situation would be at a loss for what to do. He carried Xie Nan on his back and ran towards the distance, passing by Old Chu's side, which was shrouded in orange light all over his body. He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately took step after step forward...
Chen Long hesitated, looking at Lu Jie's departing figure, and after a moment of indecision, finally picked up the walkie-talkie: "Jiang Feng, hurry! Meet at Poison Valley." With that, he and Li Yun supported Zhu Xiaocui as they retreated into the shadows.
Jiang Feng immediately pulled Yuan Hua and ran away, casually sticking a talisman on Yuan Tian's chest.
"What is this?"
"As long as we're not within a hundred meters of that thing, he won't be able to sense us," Jiang Feng said while running.
"Boom!" A deafening explosion shook the air, accompanied by raging flames that quickly engulfed the stone hut. Chen Long's secret weapon, made from the gasoline of both cars, had finally come into play! He and Jiang Feng had secretly packed hundreds of gallons of gasoline under the array that trapped the vengeful spirits, and now, breaking through the array had caused all the gasoline to ignite, producing a massive explosion in the small space. Although it couldn't recreate the Black Shadow, at least it would deal him a significant blow.
This was also the last thing Chen Long could do, he had no other way to think. He knew that the old man faced a dilemma and made such a decision, which was not an incomprehensible thing.
"Whoa!" The black shadow's figure flew out of the stone house, at this moment, his originally pitch-black body was fiery red, and there were even flames burning inside.
Yao Xi was truly enraged, feeling that his personality had been trampled on. Looking at the two weak soul lights in his hand, he let out a furious roar: "Aaaaah!" His pitch-black eyes suddenly turned blood-red as he gazed at Old Zhu, who was shrouded in an orange-red glow, with a cold and stern expression.
The surrounding space has been sealed off, living things can escape, but all souls have been trapped! However, a ghost king like him wouldn't be without one or two tricks up his sleeve to escape, would he? But he's not willing to give up, this old man won't die, and it's hard to dispel the hatred in his heart! As a thousand-year-old ghost king, his divine powers are naturally extraordinary! Even now that he's just an incarnation, with only one layer of real power, what is there for him to fear?
A mournful and eerie wail seemed to come from the depths of the underworld, instantly filling a hundred feet of space. Intense resentment and ghostly energy continuously assaulted Old Zhu's body, trying to drown him completely!
Lao Chu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, gazing heavily at the black shadow that had transformed back into its pitch-black form: "You wicked creature will be punished!" As soon as he finished speaking, he pointed to the radiant light bursting forth from his chest, where the precious treasure seal was located: "Go!"
"Hmph!" Yao Xi let out a cold snort, but his expression turned serious for the first time. The magic he had been preparing for so long was about to be unleashed, and it would exhaust Old Chu's magical powers. This attack would require some effort even if he were facing his true body, not to mention that he only had one-tenth of his true strength now.
But the Millennium Ghost King, how can the dignity of the Emperor be desecrated? He let out a loud roar towards the sky, his voice stirring up a fierce gust of wind. When heard by human ears, it sent shivers down their spines.
Furious right fist strikes out, attacking the incoming Treasure Seal! He, fearless!
"Boom!" An extremely violent explosion erupted from the center, and Xī's body instantly disintegrated. At the same time, Fā Qǐu Bǎo Yìn also flew back and became dull and lightless.
Lao Chu's hands didn't stop, one finger on the treasure seal, his mouth murmuring words. The originally dimmed treasure seal suddenly shone again with a rolling radiance, illuminating the dark clouds above his head.
"Hmph ----" The dark clouds and orange-red light mutually corroded each other, neither willing to back down.
In the distance, the joyful figure finally reassembled, he looked at Old Chu's actions with a mixture of shock and anger, his originally calm demeanor was gone, and he was now shrouded in dark light, emitting a heart-pounding magical flame.
"Ah!" He transformed into a billion, and at this moment he turned into a black belt that rolled towards Old Chu.
Lao Chu's left hand waved continuously, and the prepared talismans shot towards the black belt, exploding in mid-air into a burst of colorful flowers.
The black belt dimmed a bit, but it couldn't stop its advance! The front end of the black belt condensed into a huge fist and slammed heavily towards Old Chu!
Lao Chu's body shook violently, and he was blown away by a massive fist for six or seven meters before crashing to the ground. "Ah!" Lao Chu spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale in an instant. Although the red light from the Fa Qiu treasure had dissipated more than half of the force, it was still far beyond what a human body could withstand! His martial skills were not invincible in the world, but in the secular world of Wulin, he was considered a rare opponent, but facing the invisible Ghost King, even with his astonishing martial arts, he found it difficult to exert his power. Fortunately, his body's resistance to impact was still usable, otherwise, just this one blow would have taken his life! An ordinary big man who was hit by such a powerful force would definitely die from a collapsed chest bone, without any chance of survival!
