"Ah! — — "
A bloodcurdling scream that was neither human nor beast tore through the air. It was strange and mournful.
All of the ghost generals trembled as they let out mournful cries. Ignoring the battle in front of them, they hurriedly turned around and ran.
The Ghost King had one of its palms cut off after receiving Shi Yuyan's attack with its bare hands. A large amount of green liquid spurted out from the wound. Its young face was filled with pain and anger.
After Shi Yuyan's attack, she was completely separated from the Ghost King. Mu Hanxue fell from the sky, her entire body falling to the ground.
The Ghost King let out a mournful howl. Ignoring the pain, it leaped forward and grabbed at Shi Yuyan with its other hand, wanting to take her life.
Hei Lan was ecstatic. She took the opportunity to raise her black whip and hit the Ghost King's head. She growled, "Take his life while he's weak!"
These words were directed at Yang Qingxuan.
As long as Yang Qingxuan used his karmic fire and black whip, there was a high chance that he could take the Ghost King's life while it was injured and unconscious.
As for Shi Yuyan's life or death, he naturally didn't care. If Shi Yuyan died, he might even have a chance to obtain the Mystic Origin Water Control Flag.
However, Yang Qingxuan wasn't moved. His figure blurred as he leaped through the air and caught the exhausted Shi Yuyan in his arms.
The two stared at each other, and it was as if the world had quieted down.
Shi Yuyan suddenly cried out in alarm, "Careful!"
The Ghost King's sharp claws were right behind Yang Qingxuan. Carrying the power of anger, the five jade-green fingers ignited with eerie green flames as it clawed down.
The purple flame between Yang Qingxuan's eyebrows moved. He raised his hand and formed a seal, causing the surrounding time to stop.
Just as the Ghost King's claws were three inches away from his back, Yang Qingxuan's speed was faster than the claw's speed, and he quickly retreated.
"Boom! — — "
At this moment, all of the gears of time exploded.
The Ghost King's claw missed, and Hei Lan's whip viciously struck the Ghost King's head. "Peng!" Half of the Ghost King's head was knocked off!
"Haha!" Hei Lan was overjoyed, but his laughter suddenly stopped.
He wanted to pull out the long whip and whip it a few more times to completely destroy the Ghost King. But no matter how hard he tried, the whip seemed to be sucked into the other party's brain and did not move at all.
"How could this be?!"
Hei Lan was shocked. His heart fell to the bottom of the valley.
"Not good!" He cried out in alarm. He hurriedly abandoned the whip and turned to leave.
However, his body stiffened. Countless blood vessels wrapped around him and pierced into his body one by one.
"No! Hei Lan was shocked. He screamed and struggled with all his might.
However, more and more blood vessels appeared. They all followed the black whip and slowly spread out from the Ghost King's shattered head.
Everyone was shocked and at a loss of what to do.
"Not good!"
Yang Qingxuan flew into the crowd with Shi Yuyan in his arms. He hurriedly handed Shi Yuyan to Aunt Huang and said anxiously, "If Hei Lan is killed, we'll be in trouble!" Then, he turned around and slashed at the Ghost King.
Suddenly, a huge figure flew from the side and pounced at him. Its huge fists were like two small mountains falling down.
It was a Ghost General who charged forward without any regard for his own safety.
Yang Qingxuan's expression turned cold. His sword Qi was like a rainbow as it directly cut the Ghost General in half.
However, the stunned Ghost Generals instantly came to their senses and pounced at Yang Qingxuan without any regard for their lives.
He slashed out a few more times. Karmic fire burst out from each sword and forced the Ghost Generals closest to him to retreat.
However, there were too many Ghost Generals surrounding him. He was forced to retreat step by step, getting further and further away from the Ghost King.
At this time, Hei Lan had stopped struggling. The True Essence and blood essence in his body had been sucked dry by the Ghost King. He had become a layer of human skin with blood vessels and a swollen head.
However, the Ghost King's shattered head had recovered quite a bit.
"Hiss!" The remaining human skin of Hei Lan's body was torn to pieces by the blood vessels.
The Ghost King retracted the blood vessels that filled the sky. He raised his hand and grabbed. A Ghost General flew over and was stabbed into the Ghost General's head by his five fingers. He forcibly absorbed the Ghost General's energy to replenish himself.
Moreover, the absorption this time was different from before. The Ghost General's body rapidly shriveled. The Ghost King's body, which was originally a child, continued to expand. He became strong and terrifying as his muscles bulged.
All the Martial Artists were frightened. Only then did they realize that things were not good. They rushed forward with all their might to kill the enemy together with Yang Qingxuan.
However, all the Ghost Generals were guarding the front. It was impossible to rush forward and kill the Ghost King.
From time to time, Martial Artists would rush in from the outer hall. However, it was just a drop in the bucket.
Aunt Huang guarded Shi Yuyan at the rear. She had an anxious look on her face as she fed her some pills. However, her True Essence had been completely drained. It would take a long time for her to recover.
Shi Yuyan smiled bitterly and said, "In the end, we still failed. Will we die here?"
Aunt Huang couldn't help but cry and said, "No, Young Lady, don't worry. The Sect Master is in this Six Paths Barrier. He will definitely come to save you. Maybe the Sect Master is watching somewhere right now. He just wants to test Young Lady. "
Shi Yuyan smiled faintly. Her face was full of bitterness. She didn't fear death. However, she was extremely unwilling. She sighed and said, "I really don't want … to stop here."
She quietly lay in Aunt Huang's arms and looked at the battle in front of her. Her gaze fell on the slender figure. Her heart was extremely calm.
"Yang Qingxuan!" Suddenly, a few people rushed in from outside the hall. They were shocked when they saw him and hurriedly joined the battle.
They were none other than Wu Ying, Ade, and Fu. Yang Qingxuan had not come out for a long time, and the ghosts had not disappeared either. They were so worried that they broke out of the encirclement and ran in.
The three of them rushed to Yang Qingxuan's side and helped him block the attacks of a few ghost generals.
Wu Ying saw Yang Qingxuan's figure was on the verge of collapsing. She asked in shock, "Are you alright?"
Yang Qingxuan supported himself with his sword and said bitterly, "I'm exhausted. I'm afraid I'm done for."
Wu Ying said anxiously, "Don't say such ominous words. There are people coming in endlessly. As long as we can hold on, we will definitely win."
Yang Qingxuan sighed and said, "I'm afraid we don't have time."
He looked at the Ghost King in the distance. It had already absorbed a few ghost generals. Its body had become similar to a ghost general, but it was much stronger. Its broken arms and skull had already recovered.
Adé also noticed the Ghost King and said in shock, "Is there really no way?"
"There is still a way!"
Yang Qingxuan's eyes flashed. He shook his Astral Ring and took out a jade box. He slowly opened it. There was a round pill inside, emitting a shocking aura.
This was a heaven-grade pill he obtained from Little Flower and Fruit Mountain. He didn't know its name.
He gave one to Hua Qing as a birthday gift and took one himself to suppress Kong Ling. He only had one left.
Yang Qingxuan didn't say anything and swallowed the heaven-grade pill.
In the next moment, a vast amount of energy flowed into his limbs and bones along with the dissolved pill.
Yang Qingxuan's face darkened. He roared and rushed into the sky.
The sky was filled with flames. A divine bird, Qing Luan, appeared. It spat out karmic fire and rushed towards the Ghost King.
