Zhao Daozhang and I hurriedly repaired the damaged parts of the formation. However, the thing on Eight Horn Mountain seemed to have sensed the danger. Dense killing intent surged towards us from all directions, and the sky suddenly turned gray. The originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy.
"Look!" Zhao Daozhang looked at the distant sky with a face full of fear.
"What's that?" I raised my head to take a look and was shocked.
From the main peak of the Eight Horn Mountain, a black cloud that was as black as ink surged towards the direction of the Eight Horn Mountain. That thing actually dared to appear in broad daylight with such an aggressive aura.
"This is at least a Ghost King. It actually dares to act so boldly in broad daylight. Xiao Huang, you're more proficient in formations than I am. Leave this thing to me for now. Hurry up and repair the formation. I've never fought against a Ghost King level Yin Spirit before. However, I know my limits. I can't defeat it. I can only put it off for now. You have to reactivate the formation as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the two of us work together, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat it! "Zhao Daozhang said with a serious face. Zhao Daozhang was more knowledgeable than me, so he naturally understood the Ghost King better than me. Since he believed that the two of us together wouldn't be able to defeat it, then there shouldn't be any mistake. I didn't waste words with Zhao Daozhang. I had seen the original appearance of the formation, and I had a talent for formations. Compared to Zhao Daozhang, I was even better. This way of assigning tasks was to make the best use of people. I grabbed a bunch of Origin Energy Talismans and gave them to Zhao Daozhang.
Zhao Daozhang smiled from ear to ear. "Originally, I thought that I could only hold on for one or two rounds. However, with so many treasures, it shouldn't be too big of a problem to hold on until you repair the formation. However, you have to hurry up. I haven't seen the power of a Ghost King. Who knows how strong it is? "
I nodded and didn't say anything. I quickly ran over to repair the formation. Since the original formation had been destroyed by the structure of the building, repairing the runes wasn't just a technical job, but also a physical one. If it weren't for the help of the Seven Star Treasure Sword, I wouldn't have been able to fully recover in such a short time.
Just as I started to repair it, the huge dark cloud flew over. I didn't dare to divert my attention to the battle between Zhao Daozhang and the Ghost King. However, he still glanced at it from the corner of his eyes. Originally, I thought that with Zhao Daozhang's age, the amount of salt he ate was more than the amount of rice he ate, and the distance he walked on was longer than the distance I walked on, I was afraid that he would use some kind of ultimate move to intimidate the Ghost King. I didn't expect him to fight more simply and violently than I usually did. He actually activated several Yuan Qi Lightning Runes. It just so happened that the sky was filled with dark clouds at this time. After these Yuan Qi Lightning Runes were activated, there was no need to create any momentum. The originally dense dark clouds suddenly turned pitch-black. Rumbling thunder and lightning constantly flashed in the dark clouds. From the very thin lightning at the beginning, it slowly turned into very thick lightning. In the end, the lightning was as thick as a bucket. It directly pierced through the dark clouds and connected the heavens and the earth.
"Roar! Roar! " The Ghost King let out a furious roar. It was obvious that it had suffered a great loss under the Yuan Qi Lightning Runes. No matter how strong the Ghost King was, it was still a very abnormal soul. This kind of thing was most afraid of profound lightning attracted by the Yuan Qi Lightning Runes. This kind of lightning was different from the lightning on a rainy day. Zhao Daozhang was also ruthless. In a situation where the Ghost King couldn't dodge, he directly used an area of effect attack on it. He gave the Ghost King a head-on attack.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao Huang, you have to be a bit faster! This old Daoist doesn't have that many Yuan Qi Lightning Runes. Moreover, although the Ghost King had suffered a little, it did not hurt its foundation. I won't be able to hold on for long. If you are a bit slower, the two of us will die here. "Zhao Daozhang was worried that I would be distracted, so he quickly reminded me.
"Don't worry." Although I used the corner of my eyes to look at the intense battle, I didn't dare to relax my hands in the slightest.
The Thousand Year Peach Wood Runes were also very powerful. They lasted for a few minutes. The Ghost King was like a fish being fried in a pot of oil, constantly jumping around. Even in my dream, I didn't have many of these runes. Drawing one rune was enough to use up all the Yuan Qi in my body. Even if I continuously used up all my Yuan Qi and didn't do anything else, I could only make one Yuan Qi Lightning Rune in a day. Otherwise, I could prepare a hundred and eighty runes and directly throw them at the Ghost King. Even if the Ghost King didn't die, it would be enough to make it suffer.
The Ghost King did indeed get hit by Zhao Daozhang's Yuan Qi Lightning Runes, but the outcome didn't change. The Ghost King was only knocked unconscious for a while. Its strength was affected, but it also slowed down the Ghost King for a long time. It allowed me to repair one place in one go. There were a total of four places that needed to be repaired. This delay only allowed me to finish a quarter of the work.
I directly used the Wind Rune to fly to the next place. The Ghost King was blocked by Zhao Daozhang, so it didn't have time to deal with me.
When the first wave of Yuan Qi Lightning Runes was about to disappear, Zhao Daozhang activated a Water Rune and threw it out. Then, he also activated several Lightning Runes. This time, with the Water Rune's effect, the Lightning Rune's effect was unexpectedly strengthened. Once again, the Ghost King, who was about to regain its freedom, was pulled back.
The Ghost King flew into a rage and kept roaring. However, it couldn't do anything about Zhao Daozhang's shameless tactics.
"Hurry up. There are only two Lightning Runes left. Your Lightning Runes are really useful. Unfortunately, there aren't enough of them. If only I had prepared more before coming, it would have been better. "Zhao Daozhang said regretfully.
"You should have prepared more. Didn't you see how many high-grade Yuan Qi Lightning Runes I just gave you? With my current level, all my savings are in your hands. I didn't know that one day I would have to deal with the Ghost King. I prepared a few Yuan Qi Lightning Runes before. If I had known, I would have prepared all the Lightning Runes. "I was also very depressed. Even though he was talking, his hands moved even faster. I only used two-thirds of the time to repair the second place. Even I was a little surprised that I could be so fast.
This time, the power of the Lightning Runes was greatly increased, and the duration was also slightly longer. The Ghost King had not recovered from the previous attack, and immediately received an even more serious attack. This time, it really hurt its foundation. Although it wasn't enough to make it lose its ability to fight, it succeeded in reducing its fighting power by more than thirty percent.
Roar!
Roar! Before it could even touch a hair of ours, it was attacked by us without following the rules. The Ghost King was thoroughly enraged. If it wasn't daytime, if it wasn't on the ground, the Ghost King would definitely gather a group of subordinates and use the Ghost Sea Tactic on us. However, in a situation where these two conditions didn't exist, those little ghosts didn't dare to come out and face the scorching sun directly. Although the baleful aura almost completely covered the sun, the intensity of the light outside wasn't something those little ghosts could bear.
After I finished repairing the second damaged area, I quickly rushed to the third area. In the process, I casually released my two flying swords. The two flying swords simultaneously passed through the dark cloud that was under the attack of the Thunder Talisman. After going back and forth several times, the dark cloud let out a series of mournful howls.
"Don't worry about this matter. Hurry up and repair the great formation. That damn thing dared to come out of the ground. Today, I won't let it return! "Zhao Daozhang urged in a loud voice.
"Don't worry! It won't delay. "After finishing half of the repairs, I was more confident about this battle. However, at the same time, I also began to look down on the Ghost King. Because our first three attacks were too smooth. It was as if the scales of victory were tilting towards our side. However, I didn't think that the Ghost King would be so powerful after escaping.
Because the power of the Lightning Runes had increased this time, the duration of the Lightning Runes had increased by a lot. I just finished repairing the third area, and there was only one left.
However, at this time, the power of the Lightning Runes had completely disappeared. Zhao Daozhang threw out the fire talismans, water talismans, and wind talismans in his hand. He only hoped that the last one would be able to delay the Ghost King's footsteps, but he did not expect the Ghost King to cut off his losses like a hero. That black cloud that was as black as ink actually split into two in an instant. The biggest one pounced on all the Origin Runes that Zhao Daozhang threw out, opening its bloody mouth and swallowing all the Origin Runes. The other one went around Zhao Daozhang and pounced towards me!
"Boom!"
A fierce explosion sounded, and the biggest black cloud was directly blown away by this explosion.
"Haha, Daoist Xiao Huang, how is the situation on your side? I've already finished here. The Ghost King was actually destroyed by me … "Zhao Daozhang's voice suddenly stopped, and then he shouted with an extremely frightened voice. "Careful! The Ghost King's clone is coming! "
I had already felt a strong sense of danger approaching. I quickly turned around and saw a black cloud rushing towards me. I quickly activated a protective talisman, and the two Seven Star Treasured Swords moved like lightning to meet the attack. Habitually, I reached into my bag and took a look. I found that they were all low-level Origin Runes. I didn't care too much and activated them all, directly throwing them out.
"Boom!"
This time, the power of the explosion was much weaker than Zhao Daozhang's. There was no way to disperse the black cloud, but I managed to push it back a few meters, giving me a chance to catch my breath. The two Peach Wood Swords appeared in my hands at the same time. I poured my Origin Energy into them, and the formation on the two Peach Wood Swords was completely activated. I directly threw the two Peach Wood Swords at the black cloud that was rushing towards me. I controlled the formation on the Peach Wood Swords to explode. Two loud explosions sounded. At the same time, I controlled the two Seven Star Treasured Swords to rush towards the black cloud. The Origin Energy in the two Seven Star Treasured Swords became denser and more condensed. Under my stimulation, all the formations on them were activated.
Boom boom boom boom!
Several consecutive explosions, each more violent than the last!
The Ghost King's clone thought that I didn't have any methods to deal fatal damage to it. However, I had clearly surprised it. This time, the violent explosion directly blew it to pieces.
"Roar roar! I can't accept this! " The black cloud suddenly retreated, gathering all the remnant clouds in the sky. Then, it didn't give Zhao Daozhang and I a chance to deal the finishing blow, quickly escaping towards the main peak of Eight Horn Mountain.
I had consecutively exploded the two Peach Wood Swords and the two Seven Star Treasured Swords, causing a certain amount of damage to my soul. Zhao Daozhang didn't hold back when he attacked the Ghost King, so he didn't have much energy left. It was a pity that he had wasted a good opportunity to kill the Ghost King.
"It's a pity that we let that fellow escape. Once it reaches its nest, it won't be long before it fully recovers. However, I have no other choice. Who told you not to prepare more Lightning Talismans? Lightning Talismans are the most effective against this fellow. When we return, you must give me more. "Zhao Daozhang said regretfully.
"It's good, it's good. We have achieved our goal. It's good that I can use this opportunity to completely repair the formation. As long as the formation is activated, the baleful aura in Eight Horn Village will be completely removed. Most of the baleful aura on Eight Horn Mountain will also be removed. Maybe we can even save some creatures with strong vitality. "As I spoke, I ran over to completely repair the last part of the formation. However, at this time, I had used up all of my energy. I actually didn't have enough energy to activate the formation.
"Ai, how's the repair going? If it's done, quickly activate it. Once the sky turns dark, this place will be the Ghost King's world. Today, the Ghost King suffered such a big loss. It will definitely come for revenge soon. "Zhao Daozhang urged.
"There's no use in rushing me. I already have no way to activate the formation. I used up too much energy today. You should think of a way. "I sat on the ground powerlessly, too lazy to look up at Zhao Daozhang. Just now, in that short moment of fighting with the Ghost King, I had almost exhausted all of my Essence Qi.
Zhao Daozhang smiled, "Then let me do it."
"Quick, quick, Zhao Daozhang, quickly activate the formation. Look over there. This guy is even stronger than the previous one, right? Right now, the two of us haven't fully recovered. This is going to be fun. "I looked at the aura on Eight Horn Mountain that was even stronger than the previous Ghost King. The two of us were at the end of the crossbow. If the Ghost King really attacked us, we would definitely die. This time, it was my turn to urge Zhao Daozhang.
Zhao Daozhang raised his head and looked over. His eyes widened, "Oh my god, is that the underworld? Why are the ghosts that come each stronger than the previous one? "
Zhao Daozhang knew that our only hope lay in this formation. He sat cross-legged on the ground and poured out all of his Primordial Qi to activate the array. I also hurriedly sat down like Zhao Daozhang and used all of the remaining energy in my body.
"Roar!"
At the top of Eight Horn Mountain, the existence that was even more terrifying than the Ghost King let out a loud roar. It almost shook Eight Horn Mountain.
