The black cloud that engulfed White Bones and Thousand Tribulations surged and slowly floated up again.
White Bones seemed to be restricted by Thousand Tribulations. When Black Staff Ghost King revealed himself, White Bones didn't move or speak.
Whoosh!
The hundred-meter-tall Black Staff Ghost King held the black staff with both hands. His eyes were like two dark suns as he stared at Yu Yuan.
The black cloud that gradually floated up only reached his chest.
At this moment, most of Black Staff Ghost King's body was inside the black cloud. Only a small part of him was exposed.
At first glance, Black Staff Ghost King looked like a demon god born of darkness. Even the thick black cloud was another form of demon energy.
— It wasn't the soul energy of the land of despair.
"Black Staff was originally a Freedom Realm cultivator of the Tranquil Continent. Although he didn't come from the Devil's Palace, the secret spirit art he cultivated was actually the same as the Devil's Palace and the Red Devil School."
Chen Yan of the Sword Sect explained softly to Chen Qingyan on top of the Cloud Cruising Ship.
"The black cloud you saw engulfing White Bones was pure demon energy. This demon energy was released by the black staff, so it must have been gathered by the staff itself. I heard that the person in the Devil's Palace sent him this black staff after he became a Ghost King. The demon energy inside might have been gathered by that person from the outer realms for Black Staff. "
On the Tranquil Continent, cultivators like the Devil's Palace, the Red Devil School, and the Juling School could contain more energy.
In addition to the spirit energy of Haoran, they could also refine energy that was different from spirit energy in some mysterious realms.
Demon energy could be found in many forbidden lands that nurtured Earth Devils. In the depths of the outer realms, there were even more sources of demon energy.
Demon energy was also known as demon energy. Unlike the spirit energy of Haoran, demon energy wasn't pure enough. It usually needed to be purified again after being absorbed into the body.
However, some people who cultivated special demonic arts needed this kind of impure energy.
The Devil's Palace had a few rare Demonic Arts that were extremely powerful and had equally shocking drawbacks and recoil. They used Demonic Energy to temper the body and use Demonic Energy to replace the World's Spirit Qi before injecting it into the Yellow Court's meridian points.
The thick, black clouds formed by the demonic energy within the black staff carried a dark aura, which seemed to be compatible with the demonic incantations that the Black Staff Ghoul King had practiced when he was alive.
Now that he had transformed into a Ghost King, he could still use it.
Since these demonic energies didn't belong to soul power, the white flames released by Bai Gu, which were supposed to purify impurities, didn't work.
Even the holy light shining from White Bone's body could not penetrate the black clouds.
The reason why Black Scepter Ghoul King dared to become the second ghoul king to fight White Bone to the death after the death of Frigid Depths was because of the demon energy that he had refined from an unknown source inside his black scepter.
"Yu Yuan, I'll break your magic energy screen first, then listen to what you have to say."
Black Scepter Ghoul King grinned within the surging black clouds. He raised the black scepter that had made him famous with both hands and smashed it towards the Fiendish Demon Cauldron with great force.
Black demonic light was released from the gigantic scepter that looked like a towering stone pillar.
Bang!
Mo Yan's Yaluo Demonic Saber couldn't break the magic energy light shield, but it was instantly shattered by Black Scepter Ghoul King's strike.
Even the Fiendish Demon Cauldron was smashed to the ground by the gigantic black scepter with a "clang".
When the gigantic scepter was about to hit his head, Yu Yuan shrank his body and escaped into the small world inside the cauldron.
"Kid, there's nothing you can do by hiding in the cauldron."
Black Scepter Ghoul King grinned viciously. His mountain-like body suddenly shrank and turned into a beam of dark light that shot towards the mouth of the Fiendish Demon Cauldron.
From the looks of it, he was going to enter the small world inside the cauldron and kill Yu Yuan.
Inside the small world inside the cauldron, Yu Yuan saw that hundreds of newly formed Fiendish Demons had been reduced to dust by Black Scepter Ghoul King's strike.
Yu Yiyi's soul shadow was slightly blurry at the top of the cauldron wall.
"Black Scepter is a ghoul king after all. He's the strongest fighting force in the Land of Terror." Yu Yiyi looked at him with a sad face and said, "Master, I'll protect your partner. You should think of a way to deal with Black Scepter yourself." Her words showed that she couldn't do anything to Black Scepter Ghoul King.
"I know."
Yu Yuan turned his head and looked at the panicked Yuan Lianyao. He smiled and said, "Stay inside and don't come out again."
He then reminded Yu Yiyi, "Don't let her out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped out of the small world inside the cauldron and appeared outside the cauldron.
He stood on the icy ground with his body of flesh and blood and felt the biting cold wind. His body, which had been refined by the Yin Sunflower Essence, didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort.
On the contrary, he felt like a fish in the ocean when he left the Fiendish Demon Cauldron's protection and stood outside.
He looked up and found that the illusory image of the Soul Refining Pool was still above his head.
As for the Black Staff Ghost King, seeing that he was unable to withstand a single blow from his staff, he stepped out of the black cloud and left his staff behind. Then, in his original soul form, he turned into a beam of soul light and shot toward Qin Mu.
"H-he …"
"That Yu Yuan is just like you. He's exposed with his body of flesh and blood, but he's still safe and sound!"
"How can he do it too?"
The many Tianyuan Continent guests beside Cao Jiaze couldn't remain calm when they saw Yu Yuan step out of the Fiendish Demon Cauldron and put it into his sleeve.
Cao Jiaze had been with them all this time. With the help of the Yin Sunflower Essence in the Yin Mountain of the white bones' territory, they had witnessed the process of Cao Jiaze refining it into his body.
They all knew that Cao Jiaze wasn't afraid of the harsh astral winds in the Land of Despair and could travel with his true body.
This was why they valued and respected Cao Jiaze so much.
None of them had expected that Yu Yuan would be able to move freely in the Land of Terror just like Cao Jiaze, unafraid of the bone-piercing, fleshly wind.
"As expected."
Cao Jiaze smiled casually. He wasn't surprised at all, as if he had expected this result.
"Yu Yuan!"
An Ziqing, Chen Qingyan, Old Demon Huang and the other onlookers were shocked when they saw Yu Yuan suddenly appear in his true body after being smashed by Black Scepter Ghoul King and the Fiendish Demon Cauldron falling into the distance.
What shocked them even more was yet to come.
Yu Yuan raised his head and looked at the illusory Soul Pool. He didn't seem to notice that Black Scepter Ghoul King's soul had turned into a beam of dark light and pierced into his sea of consciousness.
"How dare he come out of that black cloud of demonic energy. Does he really think that the power of a ghoul king is invincible? "
Yu Yuan sneered and muttered to himself as he looked up at the sky.
WHOOSH!
The Soul-transforming Pool that had just appeared above his head started to spin at a much faster speed.
The power that had almost devoured Mo Yan and the saber soul of the Kyara Demonic Saber suddenly became several times stronger.
It was also at this moment that the spatial passageway that had vanished earlier instantly reappeared!
The Black Staff Ghoul King, who was supposed to fly toward Yu Yuan, was dragged into the spatial tunnel by the Soul Refining Pool and teleported straight to the Forbidden Land of the Fallen Moon with the help of the flowing light.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before anyone realized what had happened, the beam of dark light that Black Scepter Ghoul King had condensed disappeared into the spatial tunnel.
Yu Yuan took a deep breath and sensed Yan Qiling's aura from the spatial tunnel with great clarity.
The first time the spatial tunnel had appeared, Zhu Zhen Ying had made a move, so he hadn't learned anything from it before the spatial tunnel that connected the forbidden land of the Fallen Moon to the Land of Terror had collapsed.
However, Zhu Zhen Ying hadn't intervened this time.
Back in the Great Lake of the Desolate God, he had seen how Yan Qiling had opened a wide spatial tunnel and sent the evil god statue into the forbidden land of the Fallen Moon with the help of the Desolate God.
He knew that Yan Qiling was in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moon right now.
When he had established a connection with the Soul Pool, Yan Qiling in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moon must have sensed it and cooperated with him from afar.
Just like the Desolate God, the source of the yin spirit vein had opened a door for him.
Right now, the Soul Pool that had appeared in the void was only a projection.
However, once Yan Qiling opened the spatial tunnel, the projection would become real.
If the Soul Pool became real, its power would increase by more than a hundred times!
If a ghoul king from the Land of Terror had been in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moon, it would have been difficult for him to even rank among the top ten crooks. How could he possibly stand up to the Soul Pool that had become even more powerful?
With a boom, the spatial tunnel that had appeared out of nowhere disappeared again.
Before the spatial tunnel disappeared, Yan Qiling sent a wisp of soul will to Nie Tian.
He told Yu Yuan that with his attainments in spatial power, he could only open one more spatial tunnel. He also told Yu Yuan that it would be best if he used it at a critical moment when Yu Yuan was going to deal with the Nether Capital.

PS: Sorry, I only have one chapter for today.
This morning, I watched the NBA game between the Lakers and the Blazers. As a fan of Old Zhan, Old Ni was so engrossed in the game that he didn't have time to write.
In the afternoon, I hurriedly wrote a chapter and made an appointment with a few old guys. We're going to play a 4v4 half-court game under the hot sun. Every time I watch a basketball game, I'm so excited that I want to play. Ahem, I'm old, so it's rare that I still have a little bit of passion for playing basketball. I only do it a few times a year.
