At the foot of the towering Yin Mountain, the Kyara Demonic Blade was ten times larger than before, absorbing the vast Yin Qi at the foot of the mountain.
The saber's soul had been severely damaged by Yu Yuan's earlier sword strike, and was now slowly recovering.
Mo Yan's Yin Spirit suddenly emerged from the smooth surface of the blade.
Crack!
A long and narrow crack appeared in the middle of the thousand-zhang-tall Yin Mountain. A dark ghost that had shrunk a hundred times smaller emerged from the crack.
Then, it instantly returned to its original form, a hundred-meter-tall giant floating in the air.
The many ghosts entrenched in Yin Mountain prostrated themselves towards him and shouted, "Congratulations to the Ghost King for coming out of seclusion!"
Whoosh!
A giant black staff emerged from the ground not far from the Kyara Demonic Blade as the Yin Mountain shook violently.
The giant ghost slowly descended and landed in front of the staff. Its black sun-like eyes stared at the staff and said softly, "It's been a long time."
"Greetings, Black Staff Ghost King!" Mo Yan cupped his hands and bowed.
The Black Staff Ghost King in front of him was once a Freedom Realm cultivator of the human race. He was a powerful figure who could even condense a Dharma Idol. After his death, his Yang Spirit shattered and his main soul dispersed. Only a wisp of his Yin Spirit escaped.
After wandering for a while, his Yin Spirit arrived at the Land of Terror. After hundreds of years, it became the Black Staff Ghost King.
Mo Yan knew that the Black Staff Ghost King could enter the Land of Terror because of his father's secret efforts.
It was also because of this that the Black Staff Ghost King allowed him to cleanse the Kyara Demonic Blade's soul and condense his own Yin Spirit in the Yin Mountain.
The Black Staff Ghost King, who had once condensed a Dharma Idol, switched to the path of ghosts. After becoming a Ghost King, his form changed to that of his former Dharma Idol.
He was a hundred meters tall, dark and mysterious, like a demon god from the depths of darkness.
The Black Staff was an item that had followed him his whole life. On the day he became a Ghost King, it was given to him by Mo Yan's father as a congratulatory gift.
"Stay here. I'm going to the territory of Frigid Abyss," Black Rod Ghost King shouted.
Mo Yan's expression changed slightly. "So early?"
"Let's test it first and see if the Frigid Depths has improved after so many years." Looking into the distance, Black Rod Ghost King said, "Tian Cang and Qianjie have already fought each other. Chuling has also come out of seclusion. I've been at odds with Frigid Abyss since a long time ago. It's only natural that I meet him."
As soon as he finished speaking, his enormous ghostly body suddenly flew into the air with the black staff wrapped around it.
At the same time, a large number of spirits and ghosts that were close to becoming almighty flew after him.
There were a total of five ghost kings in the Land of Despair. They were Tian Zang Ghost King, Thousand Tribulations Ghost King, Chuling Ghost King, Black Staff Ghost King, and Cold Abyss Ghost King.
Ghost Kings and Underworld Ghosts were different. There was no difference between them, nor was there an exact ranking.
In the eyes of the outside world, as well as the ghosts inside, the Five Ghost Kings' battle prowess was equal, and they were all at the peak of this world.
In the past, the Ghost Kings had fought each other in pairs many times, but they had never been able to determine a winner, let alone kill each other.
After so many battles, none of them could defeat the other. Gradually, the five Ghost Kings stopped fighting each other.
However, this time, due to the turmoil in the outside world, the appearance of countless dead souls and the deaths of Daoists, the source of the yin veins had changed, and the five Ghost Kings had sensed a new opportunity.
Therefore, the chaotic situation spread to the Land of Despair, and the five Ghost Kings were all shaken.
"Lord Black Rod, what about your promise?!" Mo Yan suddenly called out.
"There's no hurry. I'll talk to the Frigid Abyss after I meet him." Black Rod Ghost King's voice echoed from afar. "Don't provoke the Frigid Abyss Ghost King. He's not someone to be trifled with."
Mo Yan said, "Oh," and didn't say anything else.
...
"Black Rod has come out of seclusion!"
Deep in the Land of Despair, Ghost King Chuling's territory.
The fox-shaped Ghost reported to Ghost King Chuling, who was wearing a dragon robe and a golden crown, inside the Spirit-sealing Diagram. "My lord, Black Staff seems to be heading towards the Frigid Depths with his subordinates!"
Inside the Spirit Locking Diagram, Ghost King Chuling nodded and said, "I understand."
An Ziqing, who was wearing purple divine armor, was listening to the conversation between Ghost King Chuling and his subordinates in boredom at the foot of the mountain. She wasn't in a good mood.
"There's one more thing. With Yu Yuan's help, White Bone first killed the eighth ranked Blue Spirit Ghost, then the ninth ranked Jade Spring Ghost, and the eleventh ranked Red Python Ghost." The white fox continued to report, "Yu Yuan came in his true form with the Fiendish Demon Cauldron. After teaming up with White Bone, White Bone won one victory after another like a hot knife through butter."
An Ziqing, who hadn't paid much attention at first, immediately perked up when she heard the white fox mention Yu Yuan.
"Even without that Yu Yuan's help, White Bone can still win." Inside the grand palace of the Spirit Locking Diagram, Ghost King Chuling said in a calm tone, "Before the white-robed ghost left, I thought White Bone's combat strength was second. I'm not surprised that he killed the eighth, ninth, and eleventh ranked Blue Spirit Ghost. "
"My lord, you think so highly of White Bone?" the white fox asked in shock.
"White Bone is accumulating power. The one he wants to deal with is probably the one at the top." Inside the diagram, Ghost King Chuling thought for a moment and said, "If White Bone wins that battle, given the density of yin energy in the Land of Terror, it's possible for a sixth Ghost King to appear."
"You're saying that White Bone can quickly become the new Ghost King?" the white fox asked in shock.
"The number of Ghost Kings in the Land of Terror is closely related to the source of the yin veins and Haoran," Ghost King Chuling explained. "The more people and cultivators die in the outside world, the more yin energy the source of the yin veins will gather, and the more Specters will be born."
"It can also lead to the birth of a new Ghost King."
"At its peak, there were eight Ghost Kings in the Land of Terror. At that time, the outside world wasn't as chaotic as it is now. When there were eight Ghost Kings, it was usually the Tranquil Continent and the Tianyuan Continent that went to war, and the empires of the Qianxuan Continent were in turmoil.
"Even then, only eight Ghost Kings were born. The source of the yin veins didn't change at all.
"This time, the Shenhun Sect has returned from beyond the heavens. Otherworldly Demons have invaded, and there are also Earth Demons and Great Demons. Compared to the war between the Tranquil Continent and the Tianyuan Continent, this is even more turbulent. During this time, as the yin energy grows stronger, not only will a new Ghost King be born, but a Specter God that has never been seen before will also be born! "
Deep within the Spirit Locking Diagram, Ghost King Chuling's eyes suddenly lit up when she said the last sentence.
He, who had reached the peak of the Land of Terror, was pursuing the goal of becoming a Specter God!
Only by becoming the ruler of the Land of Terror could he still dare to challenge anyone after leaving this world.
When he reached the level of a Specter God, the Nascent Soul experts of the three high sects, the Devil's Palace, and the Yao Gods of the Goblin Temple wouldn't be able to do anything to him!
… …
The Fiendish Demon Cauldron howled as it pulled in one Soul Spirit after another.
The subordinates loyal to the White Bone Ghost were already used to the Fiendish Demon Cauldron's methods. They knew how to cooperate. When they saw an enemy targeted by the Fiendish Demon Cauldron, they would obediently give up.
The White Bone Ghost slowly swallowed a scarlet python that was as thin as a strand of hair.
White flames burned in the White Bone Ghost's mouth, and the scarlet python gradually melted in the flames.
The green light in the White Bone Ghost's eyes grew brighter and brighter!
Subconsciously, he shot a glance at the Baleful Demon Cauldron, which was swooping through the air and hunting for its prey, and inwardly rejoiced that he had Yu Yuan's help, allowing him to kill three Dark Specters within a short time.
Inside the White Bone Ghost Cauldron.
Yu Yuan's eyes shone as he looked at the dense group of Fiendish Spirits at the bottom of the cauldron wall. He looked up and saw even more Fiendish Demons.
Whoosh!
New Soul Spirits were pulled into the cauldron and fell to the bottom of the cauldron wall to undergo the process of condensing into Fiendish Spirits.
"Five thousand Fiendish Demons are almost formed!"
The Cauldron Soul's voice rumbled in this small world.
"If a hundred thousand Fiendish Demons are formed, even if they are weak and of the lowest level, I will be able to return to the ranks of Divine Artifacts!"
"A hundred thousand Fiendish Demons was the prerequisite for the cauldron to become a Divine Artifact! Only when a hundred thousand Fiendish Demons are formed can the most powerful soul formations be fully unleashed. "
"Master! Do your best to stay in the Land of Terror for a while and collect more Soul Spirits and Ghosts! "
"Your cooperation with White Bone Ghost will benefit both sides. You can use this opportunity to continuously condense Fiendish Demons on his way to becoming a Specter King!"
The Cauldron Soul cheered.
Yu Yuan nodded slightly. He was sincerely happy as he looked at the Fiendish Spirits being condensed. "White Bone Ghost's next target should be the Ghost King ranked ahead of him. The next battle is the most important one! If he wins, he will become the sixth Specter King of the Land of Terror! "
"I will help him become Specter King!"
