The human skins on the iron trees also began to burn. The entire forest was engulfed in flames. The Skinning Hell seemed to be disappearing.
If the cycle of reincarnation still existed, these spiritual lights would be able to escape the sea of bitterness and be reincarnated. But now that the six paths were broken, these spiritual lights could only fend for themselves.
When Bai and the others saw this, they were all shocked. They didn't expect that such a troublesome ghost would disappear just like that.
Xiao Chen's magic power was nearly depleted before he managed to convert all the skeletons and ghosts in the entire Last Breath Lake.
Xiao Chen stood up and waved, holding the Reincarnation Lamp in his hand. Then, he said, "Let's go. We have probably already alerted those people on the island. We need to move quickly. Do not get into a conflict with them."
On the island in the middle of the lake, Mister Wei of the Medicine God Valley, Gongsun Hualong, and the Ghost Race physical body great grandmaster Mo Lian looked at the blazing fire in the distance with shocked expressions.
Behind the three of them, there was a group of martial artists who were also dumbfounded as they watched all of this.
"What's going on? The skins on the cyan tree are all burning."
"Could it be that someone converted all the ghosts and spirits in the Lake of Last Breath?"
Mister Wei nodded and said, "That should be the case. This person either obtained the inheritance of a Buddhist sect Martial Technique or a Secret Treasure that is even more powerful than the Soul Slaying Mirror in my hand."
Gongsun Hualong's eyes moved around, and his old face appeared uncertain. He guessed, "It should be a Secret Treasure that targets ghosts and monsters. There are only a few people in this world skilled in Buddhist Martial Techniques. It is unlikely that they would come to this Nine Layers of Purgatory."
After making up their minds, the three of them laughed in unison. Mister Wei said, "As the saying goes, it is better to come at the right time than at the right time. With this Secret Treasure, we will be much more confident in dealing with the Golden Bone Demonic Soul."
Mister Wei looked at Gongsun Hualong and Mo Lian beside him and said, "My two old friends, which one of you should go?"
Before Gongsun Hualong could speak, Mo Lian said, "Haha, leave this person to me. None of you are allowed to snatch him from me!"
Whoosh!
Right after Xiao Chen spoke, he kicked off with one leg, and his body shot out like an arrow. With a leap, he shot several kilometers away, disappearing from the two's sight.
Gongsun Hualong and Mister Wei were not surprised. In the Ghost Realm, the Ghost Emperor's faction and the Ghost Empress' faction were like fire and water.
In recent years, the Ghost Empress's faction relied on the art of refining spirits to become more and more powerful in the Ghost Domain, and the friction with the Ghost Emperor's faction had also gone from covert to overt, becoming more and more intense.
If the cultivators of the two sects met outside, they would definitely fight to the death.
Mo Lian was a core member of the Ghost Monarch's faction. When he heard that there was a Secret Treasure that could kill ghosts, he naturally could not wait.
Gongsun Hualong said after some thought, "Mister Wei, you are really willing to part with it. To think that you actually agreed to give the Soul Slaying Mirror to Mo Lian. As a condition for his help. Secret treasures that target Ghosts are extremely precious and rare. "
Mister Wei chuckled and said, "It's fine. It's just a replica. It seems like it's worth it. Without Mo Lian's help, we would not have been able to reach the eighth layer of hell so quickly. Furthermore, we would not have been able to cross the Last Breath Lake so smoothly. "
"What should we do now? Should we wait for Mo Lian to return and attack together, or should we attack first? This Golden Bone Demonic Soul is not easy to deal with."
"Let's test it out first. When Mo Lian arrives, it will be easier to kill it."
When Gongsun Hualong heard this, he did not say anything more. He turned his head and looked at a pitch-black mound five kilometers away.
On that small, pitch-black mound, there was a snow-white flower in full bloom. A flame that looked like liquid ice danced and flickered on the core of the flower.
Not far from the mound, a completely golden skeleton held a huge sickle in its hand. As it lay on the ground, it seemed to be in a deep sleep.
Only the mouth of the skeleton opened and closed. Occasionally, it spat out clumps of black flames, burning the air clean and forming large patches of black clouds.
The black clouds shrouded the mound all year round.
Gongsun Hualong's gaze turned grave. He took out a set of blue Battle Armor and carefully put it on. Then, he drew out a heavy black spear.
Gongsun Hualong pushed off the ground and silently flew towards the mound.
Mister Wei held the Soul Slaying Mirror and followed closely behind. The cultivators of the Medicine God Valley spread out in a semicircle, serving as the flanks.
Everyone showed an extremely cautious expression. They no longer dared to be careless.
Suddenly, two clumps of black flames lit up in the hollow eyes of the Golden Bone Demonic Soul. It seemed to startle awake from a deep sleep.
"Dang!"
The Golden Bone Demonic Soul stood up at lightning speed, and the sickle in its hand sent out a crescent-shaped golden light. "Keng Qiang!" It knocked back Gongsun Hualong's unexpected spear strike.
Gongsun Hualong lost in a contest of strength. He flew back one kilometer, his right hand, which held the spear, turning slightly numb.
Without saying anything, Mister Wei instantly attacked. The grandmaster-level Martial Sages behind him also attacked at the same time. The intense battle instantly reached its climax.
However, neither side would be able to take down the other within a short period of time.
On the other side, after Xiao Chen and the others were safe, they rushed towards the island. Without the obstruction of the Skeleton Phantoms, they recovered their usual speed.
After fifteen minutes, they arrived at the island. However, before they could heave a sigh of relief, their expressions changed.
Mo Lian, who was rushing over, was stunned at first. Then, he said joyfully, "Little Friend, it looks like we are really fated. You were the one who caused the earlier commotion, right?!"
Xiao Chen cursed in his heart. However, he did not get overly flustered. He smiled calmly and said, "We are indeed fated. In just a month, we meet again. As for the earlier commotion, this junior was indeed the one who caused it.
"This old man is in a good mood today. Hand over this Secret Treasure that targets spirits and the other half of the Flood Dragon Scissors. Then, you can leave. "
Mo Lian was indeed in a good mood. The commotion caused by that Secret Treasure was comparable to that of the original Soul Slaying Mirror.
If he could obtain it and offer it to the Dongyue Ghost Emperor, he would definitely be able to attract the Ghost Emperor's attention. Perhaps the Ghost Emperor would personally raise Xiao Chen's cultivation realm to the Blue Robed Emperor, which Xiao Chen had no hope of achieving in this lifetime.
This had happened before. Given the unfathomable strength of the Dongyue Ghost Emperor, it was definitely possible to raise someone to the Blue Robed Emperor realm by paying a certain price.
Of course, the prerequisite was whether the treasures were worth the price the Ghost Emperor paid.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "However, while you are in a good mood, I am not. If you disappear from my sight now, I can pretend that I did not see you."
Mo Lian could not help guffawing. "White Robed Xiao Chen, I heard of your name from the Medicine God Valley's Mister Wei. Hearing about you is not as good as seeing you in person. You really are an extraordinary arrogant person. But in front of me, what right do you have to be arrogant!? "
Mo Lian smiled. Finally, he radiated killing Qi. His voice was bone-chilling, devoid of any emotion.
Ten dragon-shaped strands of energy swam behind Mo Lian, stirring up strong winds in the surroundings. A horrifying aura of an impending storm spread out from Mo Lian's body.
Ten Dragon Force was only Mo Lian's most basic strength. A casual strike of his could produce ten Dragon Force, which was fifty million kilograms of force.
"Today, I will show you the horrifying strength of a Martial Sage with the physical body. If you can receive my most ordinary punch without retreating, I will not make things difficult for you anymore!"
Bai looked worriedly at Xiao Chen. Then, he sent a voice projection, Elder Brother Xiao Chen, don't listen to him. His punch contains ten Dragon Force. Unless one is a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage, one cannot receive it.
Xiao Chen smiled gently and sent a voice projection, Bai, don't worry. You, Brother Yuan, and Brother Kong, move back a little and watch carefully.
"Die!"
When Mo Lian saw Xiao Chen take up a stance and send the other three back, he could not help but smile coldly in his heart. Then, he shouted a war cry and charged over at lightning speed.
The dragon-shaped strands of energy behind Mo Lian soared into the sky in all directions.
Surging Dragon Might spread out for five kilometers around. When Mo Lian punched, it felt like a fifty-kilometer mountain range was uprooted and fell from the sky. Mo Lian's aura was vast and boundless. The heavy aura made the air seem solid.
Xiao Chen did not panic. After he confirmed that Mo Lian really used only ten Dragon Force, his lips curled up in a cold smile as well. Then, he circulated the Myriad Heaven Divine Fist, Deities Descending.
A strand of divine light entered Xiao Chen's body from the distant sky, causing his aura to soar infinitely. However, before it reached its peak, Xiao Chen stopped his aura from rising.
Of the tenfold combat prowess, Xiao Chen only brought out seventy percent, purposely suppressing the remaining thirty percent.
Dragons roared, and twenty dragon-shaped strands of energy suddenly formed behind Xiao Chen. Surging Dragon Might instantly suppressed Mo Lian's ten Dragon Force.
Mo Lian's heart pounded wildly as he cursed in his heart. Damn! Twenty Dragon Force! This brat tricked me! His figure flashed as he tried to retreat.
However, Mo Lian had rushed over at lightning speed earlier, arriving before Xiao Chen in an instant. Now that he changed his mind, there was no time.
Xiao Chen took a step forward and easily caught up to Mo Lian. He punched with his right hand, and twenty dragon roars resounded in the sky, merging together and bursting out.
Mo Lian vomited a mouthful of blood, and the vast might behind him shattered. Then, he fell heavily to the ground like a sandbag.
A natural crack appeared on the ground, continuously expanding. The sky shook and the ground trembled as Dragon Might spread out.
Wounds appeared on Xiao Chen's face. Blood seeped out, making his delicate face look extremely horrifying. Tiny cracks appeared in all the bones in his body as pain spread silently.
However, Xiao Chen's eyes remained as calm as clear water. His back was as straight as a pine tree, and his long hair fluttered in the wind. He did not move at all.
Looking at the disbelieving Mo Lian on the ground, Xiao Chen said calmly, "As the saying goes, once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back. As you wish, Old Mister, you can scram now!"
Rage flashed in Mo Lian's eyes. He vomited another mouthful of blood and got up in a sorry state.
Suppressing the injuries in his body, he smiled coldly and said, "Good. I misjudged you. You are also a physical body cultivator. However, you clearly used a Secret Technique in that punch. This old man doesn't believe that you dare to throw another punch like that. "
Xiao Chen smiled mockingly. "What's wrong? Old Mister, are you not going to keep your promise today?"
"Haha! If I kill you, who will know that I went back on my promise? Don't feel unconvinced. I am bullying you today. What can you do to me? You are not the only one who can burst out with twenty Dragon Force. "
Clearly, Mo Lian no longer dared to underestimate Xiao Chen. He prepared to use a Secret Technique to double his combat prowess. Even at the risk of injuring his physical body, he wanted to end Xiao Chen.
Otherwise, if he allowed Xiao Chen to mature, he would be doomed.
