The Corpse King spread his hands, and his ten fingers curled into eagle claws. Ten streaks of black light shot out from his fingertips in all directions. They were his ten fingernails.
Li Qingshan's heart leapt into his throat as he turned around desperately. If he was struck, only death would await him no matter how powerful his life force was.
The fingernail actually changed directions with him like a flying sword. Just when he was unable to dodge it completely, a powerful gust of wind suddenly surged over from beside him, pushing him away.
A fingernail the size of a stone beam brushed past him. His scarlet hair drifted through the air.
Li Qingshan nodded towards Gu Yanying. If it were not for Gu Yanying's fan, he would have been unable to avoid heavy injuries even if he managed to survive. Afterwards, he would be in danger if he received a few more attacks.
Gu Yanying, on the other hand, was not attacked. Clearly, the Corpse King's attacks were selective, targeting people who could not defend or dodge.
If it were not for the spirit turtle's warning, Li Qingshan probably would have been heavily injured. Gazing down, another two Golden Core cultivators had fallen in battle. Li Qingshan even recognised one of them. He was one of the four grandmasters.
The other three Golden Core cultivators suffered wounds of varying severity. The so-called light wounds were the shattering of their lifebound arcane artifacts and the loss of an arm. As for the heavy wounds, the lower half of their bodies had been reduced to mincemeat. They only managed to survive due to their life force as Golden Core cultivators, but they were on the brink of death.
Before the Golden Core cultivators could even form an encirclement, they had already been scared silly.
This was the terror of Corpse Kings. They were an entire realm of cultivation apart. Even if they were unable to unleash their full strength, they were not people a group of Golden Core cultivators could trifle with. If they wanted to stop him, then they better be prepared to die!
As for the Dark Queen's Void-bellied Ghost King. Having suffered three fingernails, it was on the verge of collapse. It probably only needed another strike and it would be done for.
The Dark Queen glanced backwards before looking at the Corpse King before her. She sucked in a deep breath.
The fierce wind whistled as the Void-bellied Ghost King opened its cavernous mouth. Surging yin qi poured in. His body filled up once again, and his belly bulged up.
"You still haven't given up!"
The Corpse King pressed his hands against the ground, and his body moved a little closer to the Gate of Hungry Ghosts. The aura on his body became stronger and more violent, and his arm was surrounded by layers of corpse qi as he slammed it into the Void-bellied Ghost King's stomach.
The Void-bellied Ghost King moved backwards, creating a huge gully in the ground. Then, he drew a few kilometers back and spat out a mouthful of Yin energy. His figure was extremely dispirited.
At this moment. The Gate of Hungry Ghosts opened wider, and the Corpse King's power did not weaken at all. Instead, it grew stronger and stronger. Although he had lost countless subordinates, the entire Hungry Ghost realm was supporting him in expanding his territory.
The Zombie King said, "All of you will die here today!"
There was also that strange skeleton. Although that white flame was terrifying, it was impossible for it to break through the corpse energy protecting its body. His personal strength was only at the level of Corpse Commanders. He didn't believe that such a weak guy could do it. He could destroy the Hungry Ghost realm.
"As long as I use my full strength, I can kill it with a single slap."
Li Qingshan was alarmed. It was getting more and more violent!
Such a powerful opponent was no longer something he could face with his current realm of cultivation. Even escaping was worth rejoicing over.
However, there was nowhere to run. He would not run either!
When faced with an undefeatable enemy, some people would feel fear and despair, while others would become hot-blooded and excited. He belonged to the latter.
He glanced at Little Ann from afar. Little Ann had already done him a great service by destroying the corpse army, even suppressing several dozen Corpse Commanders. Now, it was up to him.
His battle intent surged. He no longer had any other thoughts. All he thought about was how to defeat his opponent.
"Send me on my way!"
"Alright!" Gu Yanying swung her jade folding fan, and a tornado-like gust of wind blew against Li Qingshan's back with a gentle but powerful force.
Li Qingshan unfurled his wings, and his entire body blazed with flames. He moved with extreme speed, leaving behind a long trail of flames. He was like a meteor of fire, tearing through the sky and landing on the ground.
"A moth flying into a flame!" That was what everyone present thought in that instant.
The Corpse King raised his hand and was about to crush this overconfident moth.
The streak of fire turned and shot over the Corpse King's head, landing five kilometers away.
The Princess of Ruyi understood what had happened. She widened her eyes and called out, "Golden core!"
Li Qingshan would never carry out a suicide attack. His target was not the Corpse King, but the golden cores left behind by the two Golden Core cultivators the Corpse King had killed in a single strike.
None of the Golden Core cultivators present could obstruct him.
Li Qingshan reached out and grabbed two golden cores, along with two hundred treasures pouches. He casually shoved the two golden cores into his mouth before turning around. He still did not charge towards the Corpse King.
Just Now, a Golden Core cultivator had been killed before he could blow up his golden core, falling to the ground. There was also a cultivator who had been burned to death by the Samādhi Flames of White Bone.
Li Qingshan had locked onto the location of the two golden cores a long time ago.
All he saw was a streak of firelight circling around the Gate of Hungry Ghosts a few times in the distance!
Another two golden cores were in his possession.
Li Qingshan directly shoved them into his mouth before flying off into the distance. Four golden cores entered his stomach.
Gu Yanying said in surprise, "Spit them out!"
Every single golden core contained the essence of a Golden Core cultivator's centuries of cultivation. It was true that they contained great energy, but swallowing them like this was not cultivation, but suicide.
If he swallowed four golden cores at the same time, and their attributes were completely different, he could imagine the consequences of four golden cores exploding in his body. No matter how tough his body was, no matter how powerful his life force was, he would still be reduced to smithereens. He would be as dead as he could be.
Li Qingshan smiled at Gu Yanying, but the smile became vicious very soon. His flawless, handsome face was replaced by a vicious, vicious face of a daemon. His body rose up from the ground. Three meters, fifteen meters, thirty meters, sixty meters …
In his original form as a daemon, his scarlet eyes were like charcoal, and his scarlet hair was like fire. A pair of huge, fiery wings blazed on his back. He no longer possessed the magnificence of a phoenix. Instead, he gave off a feeling of unbridled violence.
Li Qingshan dropped to his knees loudly. The power of the four golden cores erupted in his body at the same time, battering against each other furiously.
He used the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression to suppress it desperately. At the same time, he calmed his heart and focused his mind, doing everything he could to control and guide every bit of power.
Even with that being the case, his muscles bulged up like tumors before exploding loudly, turning into balls of fire. Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
It was like countless bombs had been buried in Li Qingshan's body. His body exploded one after another.
In the blink of an eye, not a single piece of his body remained intact. It had all been reduced to flames, burning fiercely. If it were not for the Phoenix Transformation, he would have been heavily injured and on the verge of death already.
Through the flames, it was possible to clearly see a vicious skeleton standing proudly.
Crack! Crack! Cracks appeared on the skeleton. Even the tough tiger bones could not withstand the power of the four golden cores erupting at the same time. They were like cracks in a dam, almost on the brink of collapse.
The Marquis of Ruyi was stunned by this crazy action. "H- is he crazy? This wretched daemon! "
The Corpse King laughed madly. "Is this your straw to clutch at? I haven't even done anything yet, and you're already close to dying. "
He was dreaming if he wanted to break through just by swallowing a few golden cores right before the battle!
… …
In the sea of blood, the Skeleton Demon Formation was destroyed loudly, returning to Little Ann's wrist. Its colour was rather dim, and the Samādhi Flames of White Bone coiled around it before recovering its lustre.
The Blood Sea Banner's suppression on the several dozen Corpse Commanders had finally reached its limit. If it continued, it would damage the Blood Sea Banner.
Little Ann glanced at Li Qingshan in worry. He composed himself and shook the Blood Sea Banner.
Several dozen strangely-shaped Corpse Commanders were sent flying.
The expressions of the cultivators all changed drastically. The Moon Devil had forcefully swallowed golden cores and was on the brink of death, while the Corpse King was so vicious too. Coupled with the pincer attack from so many Corpse Commanders, only death awaited them.
These wretched daemons really were unreliable!
Little Ann raised the Buddha Slaying sword embryo silently.
The Corpse Commanders had broken free after so much difficulty, so they were utterly furious. They immediately gathered corpse qi to exact their revenge, but they discovered that there was not even a single Corpse Soldier left on the ground that they could control. They could not help but be taken aback.
They had only been suppressed in the Blood Sea Banner for a short amount of time, so why had the situation outside changed so drastically?
Little Ann did not care about what they thought. He swung the Buddha Slaying sword embryo backwards and leapt up, shooting towards the group of Corpse Commanders with lightning speed. He actually wanted to take on several dozen Corpse Commanders alone.
Even Gu Yanying felt like her brain was rather lacking. These two basically could not be understood through common sense!
How could the Corpse Commanders be afraid? They rushed up to receive her with a furious roar, but they did not lose their composure. Their auras connected, weaving together into a flawless net. They wanted to capture her before ripping her to pieces.
What lunged over was the Corpse Commander with the Weeping Stick who fought evenly against Han Anguo. He let out a sharp wail, like an invisible, sharp awl, shaking up people's hearts. The Weeping Stick in his hand turned into several hundred blurs, and every single one of them was real, striking down like a storm.
The other Corpse Commanders also unleashed their various techniques. Fists, claws, teeth, and corpse qi surged over.
Little Ann swung the Buddha Slaying sword embryo from behind to in front of her calmly. She began swinging it around casually like she was scribbling something. It was effortless, as if she was enjoying it.
She passed through the net of Corpse Commanders. The Corpse Commanders who directly obstructed her were all stunned in the air.
The Corpse Commander in mourning clothes gazed at the Weeping Stick in his hand. It suddenly snapped in the middle, falling down. Then he lowered his head and looked at himself. Sword slashes criss-crossed his body. They were black at first, before expanding and splitting apart.
He was filled with disbelief, using his hands to cover his wounds. Black corpse qi surged out from the gaps between his fingers.
In that instant, he was torn to pieces, falling out of the sky.
In a single clash, five Corpse Commanders had been cut to pieces.
The Buddha Slaying sword embryo truly did not possess any decent power. It was just exceptionally tough and sharp. It was so sharp that whether it was the protective corpse qi or the indestructible bodies of the Corpse Commanders, they all seemed to be nothing before it.
"What sword is that? Even my atmospheric winds are only so-so. " Gu Yanying was shocked. Her atmospheric winds were powerful, but collecting and refining them was extremely troublesome. How could it compare to the convenience of a sword?
Han Anguo recalled his battle with the Corpse Commander in mourning clothes Just Now and experienced an indescribable feeling. Originally, he felt like it was about time to teach the daemons a lesson and clean up the matter of the Clear River prefecture, but he no longer possessed that confidence now.
