Before the Head Elder's voice faded, a swooshing noise came from afar.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three silhouettes stood above the clouds, their bodies rising and falling along with the airflow.
"Haha, five of us, not one less." All three of them were wearing black robes with golden edges and cloaks, which were embroidered with evil ghost patterns. At this moment, the middle-aged man in black robes, who seemed to be the leader, glared at the three of them and let out a cruel laugh.
The Head Elder knew that these three people must be the Ghost Guards of the Ghost Corpse Mountain, but he still yelled, "Who are you?"
"The ones who will kill you!"
The middle-aged man in black robes on the left pulled out his long blade and launched a hack!
Puff!
The clouds were torn apart, and a gigantic, gray blade Qi, which was tens of meters long, flashed across the sky and appeared in front of the Wind Vulture.
"Bastard!"
The Head Elder's long hair and beard fluttered in the air as he pointed his finger out.
Puff!
The blade Qi was penetrated by the finger power and shattered.
"Sky-burning Palm!"
The Fourth Elder couldn't wait anymore. He raised his red-hot, iron-like palm and launched a hack, evaporating the clouds.
"Kill!"
The middle-aged man in black robes, who seemed to be the leader of the group, made his move. He pressed his right hand in the air and released a tens of meters long, gray, gigantic palm made of Zhen Qi. Not only did it shatter the Fourth Elder's palm power, it also moved towards the Wind Vulture and Ye Chen's group like a dark cloud.
The Head Elder was fighting against another man in the air. Seeing the sky turn dark, he immediately knew what was going on. He calmly stepped on the Wind Vulture's back and let it descend into the clouds.
The gigantic palm made of Zhen Qi almost grazed the Wind Vulture's body and shattered the clouds in that area. Shockwaves spread out in all directions, stirring up the sea of clouds.
"Where do you think you're going?!"
The man in black robes, who hadn't joined the fight yet, swooped down from the clouds and blocked the Wind Vulture's way.
The Head Elder's face darkened. He controlled the Wind Vulture and swooped down, trying to fight the man on the ground.
A fierce gale roared, and the ant-sized mountains on the ground quickly enlarged.
When the Wind Vulture was still thousands of meters away from the ground, a gigantic palm made of Zhen Qi swooped down at an even faster speed.
The Wind Vulture was indeed a fifth-level beast. It flapped its wings and sped up once again, drawing an arc in the air and barely dodging the gigantic Zhen Qi palm.
At last, the Wind Vulture successfully landed on a mountain peak that was flat and stable.
"The three of you, don't split up. Han Shan, release the Silver Light Thunderbolt Bomb at the critical moment!" The Great Elder ordered as he stomped on the ground.
Lou Hanshan nodded seriously, then said to Ye Chen and Xu Jing, "Don't worry, we'll just stand aside and watch. They can't do anything to us."
Ye Chen, on the other hand, was not too worried. The sect had given them a lot of life-saving treasures when they went on such a long journey. As for the Silver Light Thunderbolt Bomb that the Great Elder mentioned, although he had never heard of it before, it was definitely not an ordinary item for the Great Elder to value it so much.
Boom!
The mountain peak shook. The Great Elder and the middle-aged man in black robes had already started fighting. Both of them were powerful Late Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists, every single move of theirs could shake a mountain. Some beasts that were startled by the fight were smashed into meat paste by the fierce Qi of the two of them before they could even run away.
On the other side, the Fourth Elder and the Wind Vulture were fighting against the other two middle-aged men in black robes.
Although the Fourth Elder was not as powerful as the Great Elder, he was still a Late Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist, and the martial skill he had used was a mid-rank Earth Realm palm art, the Sky Burning Palm, which was able to burn everything in its path. The Wind Vulture was only as powerful as a Mid Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist, which was not as powerful as the Fourth Elder, but it had a super fast speed, which allowed it to keep the Fourth Elder occupied.
The fight between the five of them and the beast had nothing to do with Ye Chen and the other two.
Lou Hanshan sighed and said, "The Ghost Corpse Mountain couldn't wait any longer, it seems that the Ghost Artist's recovery time is getting closer and closer."
"The Ghost Artist?" Ye Chen and Xu Jing both looked at Lou Hanshan.
Lou Hanshan explained, "Once upon a time, there was a powerful martial institution in the South Zhuo Region, called the Nine Ghost Cult. The Nine Ghost Cult had one hundred and eight ghost warriors under its leadership, and the Ghost Artist was one of them. Later on, the Nine Ghost Cult became more and more ambitious, they wanted to unify the entire South Zhuo Region and enslave all the other martial institutions. As a last resort, all the other martial institutions joined hands and started a war against the Nine Ghost Cult, which lasted for years. Twenty years ago, the Nine Ghost Cult was finally wiped out. All the powerful martial artists of the Nine Ghost Cult were either killed, or escaped. The Ghost Artist's injury should have been caused by that time. "
How could such a thing happen?!
Ye Chen had never heard anything about the Nine Ghost Cult. Of course, this had something to do with his experience, many people in the martial world might have heard about it.
However, this Nine Ghost Cult was way too powerful, it was able to fight against all the martial institutions in the South Zhuo Region by itself, it must be at least rank 5! Ye Chen was shocked.
Xu Jing asked, "How is the Ghost Artist's power?"
Lou Hanshan gave a bitter smile and responded, "He was at the Late Astral Reaching Realm when he was at his peak, and now he should be at the Early Astral Reaching Realm. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to wipe out the Evil Earth Martial School in one night."
Hearing him, both Xu Jing and Ye Chen gasped silently.
A Late Astral Reaching Realm martial artist!
A martial artist at this level could easily destroy a thousand-zhang-tall mountain with a single move, while a Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist could only destroy a hundred-meter-tall mountain. The two of them were not even on the same level. If the Ghost Artist recovered his full power, not to mention a single martial institution, even if all five of the top martial institutions joined hands, they might not be able to escape the fate of being wiped out. The power gap between them was way too huge, and couldn't be made up by numbers.
"Heavenly Ghost Seal!"
"Purple Light Finger!"
High up in the air, a hill-sized, grey-black Zhen Qi hand clashed against a thin and long beam of purple light. The air was instantly pushed apart like waves, and the aftermath of the collision was powerful enough to kill an ordinary Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist. As for Condensing Reality Realm martial artists, they would all be killed.
Right at this moment, Ye Chen sensed a slight swishing sound coming from all directions.
"Someone is coming."
The three of them stood on top of a mountain and looked down. Soon, they saw hundreds of black dots gathering towards this mountain at an extremely high speed.
"Let's fight!"
Lou Hanshan seemed to be very calm.
After about ten blinks of an eye, the first man in black appeared on top of the mountain. His Zhen Qi vibration was very strong, he was an Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist.
"Kill!"
He gave a vicious grin, then rushed towards the three of them without any hesitation.
Lou Hanshan shook his head, flicked his wrist and threw out a silver iron bomb, which swished across the air and bumped against the protective Zhen Qi of the man in black.
Boom!
A scorching silver lightning bolt burst out, and the man in black was instantly blown into pieces, leaving a ten-meter-deep pit on the ground.
Ye Chen popped out his eyes, 'Silver Light Thunderbolt Bomb is way too powerful!' An Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist didn't even have a chance to fight back before he was blown into pieces. In other words, with a few Silver Light Thunderbolt Bombs, an Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist could be killed within a second.
Lou Hanshan said coldly, "We don't have many Silver Light Thunderbolt Bombs, after we kill the more powerful ones, we'll take care of the rest."
"That's exactly what I wanted." Xu Jing was already itching to join the fight.
Soon, another two men in black rushed up, they were also Early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists. After all, only those with higher cultivation could fly in the front, while those with lower cultivation stayed behind.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Explosive sounds of the Silver Light Thunderbolt Bombs rose one after another. Except for one man in black who was quick enough to dodge, all the other men in black had the same ending, they all died without even leaving a complete corpse. The man in black who had dodged was also hit by the aftermath of the explosion of the Silver Light Thunderbolt Bomb and lost one of his legs.
"Great Monument Heavenly King Fist!"
Lou Hanshan's eyes shone brightly as he threw out a punch.
The gigantic Zhen Qi fist gripped the purple monument and crushed that badly wounded man in black to death. Blood mist spread out in the air.
At this moment.
Lou Hanshan's killing intent was completely released, he was no longer as gentle as before, he now looked like a God of Slaughter.
One after another, the other men in black rushed up the mountain.
Pop! Pop!
Two fiery halos appeared behind Xu Jing's head. She stomped on the ground and cracked it open. With each punch, she killed two Late Condensing Reality Realm men in black.
Ye Chen wasn't slow either, he performed the Sky Cloud Sword Art together with the sword intent. His thick sword Qi was almost like a cutting machine, wherever the sword Qi reached, the men in black would be cut in half, their intestines and internal organs spilled out, then turned into blood mist by the aftermath of the sword Qi.
"Little brat, you're courting death!"
Two peak-level Late Condensing Reality Realm men in black robes flashed and surrounded Ye Chen. They were much more powerful than ordinary men in black robes, they were no weaker than the number one inner disciple of the Emerald Martial Palace, Cheng Jun.
But of course, after reaching the Late Condensing Reality Realm, Ye Chen didn't see these men as weak opponents anymore. He didn't say a word, instead, he used the Sky Cloud Sword Art together with the Crane Shadow Steps, and dashed between the two men like a misty cloud.
Puff!
Puff!
Two men's heads suddenly flew into the air, blood gushed out from their necks.
"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"
More and more men in black robes appeared on the mountain, among them were ordinary men in black robes, some were as powerful as Cheng Jun. There were even one or two child-to-be level men in black robes. Fortunately, all of the Clasping Yuan Realm men in black robes had been killed by Lou Hanshan's Silver Light Thunderbolt Bombs. Otherwise, even if the three of them managed to resist for a while, they wouldn't be able to survive.
"Top Heaven!" Facing the great pressure, Xu Jing finally burst out her hidden power. She activated the ninth level of the Golden Three Realm Art, and a dazzling fiery halo appeared behind her head. It was half the size of a human, shining with a golden light, making her look like a female warrior from the ancient times.
Three men in black robes, who wanted to sneakily attack Xu Jing, didn't even have the time to react before they were killed by Xu Jing's fierce fist power. Their backs even exploded.
The power of the ninth level of the Golden Three Realm Art was unimaginably powerful.
Lou Hanshan had also activated the Extreme Purple Art to the ninth level. A stream of purple Qi appeared behind his back, extending into the air like a bridge, increasing his fighting power. At this moment, he launched the Great Monument Heavenly King Fist, which made him almost invincible. Wherever he went, all the men in black robes would be killed without being able to fight back. Even a child-to-be level man in black robes was knocked back by Lou Hanshan's three punches.
Ye Chen's Zhen Qi cultivation was not as good as the other two, but he had the Pure Jade Body Boosting Spell. Half a month ago, he had already reached the fifth level of the spell, the Golden Jade Body. With only the defensive power of his body, even those child-to-be level men in black robes would not be able to hurt him. However, he still felt that it was not enough, so he activated the Pure Jun Zhen Qi to protect himself, which meant that he now had two layers of defense, one inside and one outside.
