Accompanied by that sinister voice, a menacing face gradually appeared from the darkness behind Demoness Ji.
Wu Dao's true body was alarmed. Without hesitation, he pulled Demoness Ji over and shielded her behind him, glaring at the figure that appeared slowly in the darkness with a grim expression.
It looked like an old man covered in blood. His face was pale and there was no hint of life in him – he was like a malevolent ghost!
No matter what the old man's background was, the fact that he could hide from Wu Dao's true body's spirit perception was enough to alarm him and put him on guard.
"To think that two brats would come here. Hehehe …"
The old man let out an unpleasant laugh once more. His widened lips stretched to the back of his ears, as though his entire head was split into two!
"Could he be a Ghost Immortal?"
Demoness Ji gradually calmed down and panted slightly, saying with a trembling voice.
"Ghost Immortal?"
Wu Dao's true body's heart skipped a beat.
Back in the emperor tomb, Qinglian's true body encountered a Ghost Immortal that was extremely strong and nearly died inside. Thankfully, he managed to survive with the help of his soul lamp.
She continued, "However, according to the inheritance memories that the Nine Netherworld Emperor gave me, the conditions for the formation of Ghost Immortals are extremely unique. At the very least, an Emperor Lord has to die!"
Only the powerful resentment of an Emperor Lord could turn into a Ghost Immortal!
Back then, Qinglian's true body was only at the Mystic Immortal realm and did not know much about Ghost Immortals. Neither was it accurate and she only heard bits and pieces from Feng Ziyi.
He merely thought that Ghost Immortals were formed from the accumulation of resentment of an expert whose soul did not dissipate after death and did not enter reincarnation. Furthermore, they cultivated sentience.
To think that the prerequisite for the formation of Ghost Immortals was the death of an Emperor Lord!
In that case, it could explain why there was such a Ghost Immortal in the emperor tomb.
Legend has it that the formation of the emperor tomb was due to the death of an Immortal Emperor.
Later on, other Emperor Lords took the risk to enter the emperor tomb and were inevitably cursed and buried within.
Demoness Ji continued, "However, Emperor Lords are considered peak existences in the upper world and it's extremely difficult for them to die, let alone die suddenly. How can there be an Emperor Lord here …"
At that point, Demoness Ji's voice stopped abruptly.
She suddenly recalled that there was indeed an Emperor buried here, the World Devastation Fiend Emperor!
Could this be the final resting place of the World Devastation Devil Emperor?
Wu Dao's original body naturally thought of the World Devastation Devil Emperor, but he was still a little confused.
He always felt that the dark space here was incompatible with the Great Tomb of the Demon Emperor above, as if they were two different worlds.
Above the tomb, within the range of the Great Tomb of the Devil Monarch, they couldn't release their Heavenly Grottoes, and their secret arts were also sealed.
But here, the two of them were almost unaffected.
At this moment, he didn't have the time to analyze it carefully. The Ghost Immortal opposite them suddenly took a deep breath at the two of them!
Wu Dao's main body felt like he was in a trance. His essence spirit felt like it was being pulled out of his body by a powerful suction force!
Fortunately, the power of the Mask of Mo Luo burst forth and blocked his Yuan Shen, allowing him to regain his consciousness instantly.
However, Demoness Ji's cultivation realm was insufficient and she could not resist the devouring power at all. A wisp of her Essence Spirit left her body and flew towards the Ghost Immortal opposite her!
The Martial Dao Primordial Body's Dao Arts were unable to cause any harm to these Ghost Immortals.
However, he had a treasure on him that could kill a Ghost Immortal!
Using his sleeves, Wu Dao's main body swept up a dim bronze lamp from his storage bag and smashed it towards the Ghost Immortal opposite him.
"Hehe."
The old man laughed strangely and reached out with his withered and rotten palm, grabbing towards the shabby bronze lamp. "Kid, you can't hurt me … Ah!"
Before the old man could finish, he shrieked.
It was too late for him to dodge and shake off the soul lamp!
Right before Wu Dao's main body, the old man turned into streams of light and entered the bronze lamp, vanishing completely.
There was clearly an additional layer of oil at the bottom of the bronze lamp.
Back then, the Ghost Immortal in the Emperor's tomb was almost sucked to death by the soul lamp merely by touching it with his walking stick.
This Ghost Immortal, on the other hand, did not even have a chance to escape if he dared to grab it with his bare hands!
Demoness Ji's Essence Spirit returned to her consciousness and looked in the direction where the old man disappeared with a lingering fear.
She heaved a sigh of relief. "To think that there would be a Ghost Immortal beneath this tomb chamber. I wonder what happened to the World Devastation Fiend Emperor back then for him to die here with such deep resentment."
"Something's not right,"
Wu Dao's main body put away the bronze lamp and murmured with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Demoness Ji was puzzled.
Wu Dao's main body said, "The tomb above the World Devastation Fiend Emperor's tomb is exquisitely set up. It's clear that he was prepared for this. If he died, why would he leave behind such a tomb?"
As Wu Dao's main body said that, he swept his gaze and realized that Demoness Ji was looking behind him with a pale expression!
In the darkness behind Wu Dao's main body, a figure appeared slowly and approached silently like a ghost.
It was a menacing face that resembled a malevolent ghost. In the darkness, it opened its mouth and swallowed the head of Wu Dao's main body!
Another Ghost Immortal!
Throughout the entire process, Wu Dao's main body's spirit perception did not react at all.
"Hurry and run!"
Demoness Ji shrieked and pounced towards the Ghost Immortal in the darkness behind Wu Dao's main body without hesitation!
When Wu Dao's main body noticed Demoness Ji's odd expression, he realized that he was in immense danger!
His surroundings were dark and he might not be safe no matter where he hid!
Wu Dao's main body reacted extremely quickly. With a shift of his spirit consciousness, he released a Martial Spirit Fire that entered the Soul Lamp.
Swoosh!
Instantly, the Soul Lamp was ignited and burned with a tiny golden flame. The light spread and enveloped his surroundings!
"Ah!"
The Ghost Immortal hidden behind him was affected by the golden light and seemed to be severely injured. Golden flames burst forth from his body and spread from the inside out, unable to be extinguished.
"Soul …"
The Ghost Immortal only managed to say a single word before he was enveloped by the golden flames and devoured. His Essence Spirit was destroyed and his soul dissipated into nothingness!
Demoness Ji paused in her tracks and looked at everything in shock.
She had not expected that the seemingly inconspicuous bronze lamp in the hands of Wu Dao's main body would possess such power!
Ghost Immortals did not have a true body and were in reality formed from their souls and resentment.
However, the Soul Lamp was the nemesis of these Ghost Immortals!
Both Wu Dao's main body and Demoness Ji's Essence Spirits were in their consciousnesses and were protected by their physical bodies. Their Soul Lamps were lit and shone with a golden light that did not harm them at all.
"What's going on? Why are there two Ghost Immortals here? Should we hurry and leave?"
Demoness Ji's face was pale and she felt uneasy, feeling even more sinister than before.
The surrounding darkness seemed to be filled with an indescribable chilling aura!
With a grim expression, Wu Dao's main body rolled up the Soul Lamp in his hands and tossed it into the surrounding darkness.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! "
The golden light dispersed the darkness and dozens of ghostly figures appeared instantly. They let out a series of tragic cries and squeezed to retreat, trying to avoid the light of the Soul Lamp!
When she saw that, Demoness Ji's expression changed and she shuddered!
There were dozens of Ghost Immortals hiding in the darkness!
