The Ghost General was very powerful. At the very least, from what Chu Xiu could sense, it was even stronger than some Martial Immortals.
However, it remained that the Ghost General was a Demonic Ghost, an evil ghost. With the Cross Lotus Seal, Chu Xiu was still able to put up a fight against such an evil ghost.
Thus, the instant he turned around, Chu Xiu formed a Cross Lotus Seal with his hand. Powerful Buddhist light blossomed. As the Cross Lotus Seal bloomed, the holy Buddhist light purified the power of the Netherworld before him. The image of a Buddha appeared behind Chu Xiu. Buddhist chants descended, making Chu Xiu appear incomparably holy.
In the next moment, the Ghost General let out a miserable howl. Black fog surrounded its body, and its entire body was sent flying. The black fog dispersed, leaving only a suit of armor standing upright in its original position.
Xu Jiang and the others were stunned by that scene.
What happened to the promised high level Demonic Ghost General? What happened to the promised power to defeat Martial Immortals?
Earlier, it was so ferocious in its pursuit of them. Why was it unable to even block a single attack from Chu Xiu? This isn't right.
At that moment, Sikong Tan was cursing in his heart. This Yu Wenfu is simply incapable of accomplishing anything, but good at spoiling things. He insisted on staying here to watch. And now, he ended up causing trouble.
However, Chu Xiu still had a serious expression on his face.
Following Chu Xiu's increase in strength, the Cross Lotus Seal's power had become even stronger than before.
However, the seal earlier only managed to disperse the black fog around the Ghost General. That said, Chu Xiu could still sense the Ghost General's aura.
Sure enough, as the power of the Cross Lotus Seal dissipated, the surrounding Netherworld Ghost General condensed back into a solid form and gathered within the Ghost General's armor.
The Ghost General took a step forward, causing the entire earth to tremble. The crescent moon blade slashed down with incomparable might.
A loud clang rang out. Chu Xiu's blade slashed down. However, it was sent flying by the overwhelming power.
His opponent was an existence comparable to a Martial Immortal. At the very least, his strength was around that of a level two Martial Immortal. It was simply not something that the current Chu Xiu could take on.
And this was not the end. Chu Xiu could feel that every time Gui Jiang attacked, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi around him became thinner and was replaced by the cold Ghost Qi of the Netherworld.
Although those Ghost Generals were not Martial Immortals, they were existences capable of affecting the laws of heaven and earth.
However, Martial Immortals were active, while Ghost Generals were passive.
The Ghost General roared and slashed down again and again. Chu Xiu dodged and dodged, but was sent flying again and again.
He took a deep breath and released his God Domain, enveloping the Ghost General in the middle.
Although the power of the Celestial Domain could destroy the Netherworld Ghost Qi around the Ghost General, the speed at which the Ghost General recovered was even faster. It was impossible to cause any effective damage to the Ghost General.
But right at this moment, the attributes in the God Territory changed in an instant. The misty Chaotic Energy turned into an extremely dazzling Buddha light!
Under the illumination of the Buddha light, the power around the Ghost General instantly began to evaporate.
However, it was clear that although the power of the ordinary Buddha light could restrain the Ghost General's power, it could not completely injure him like the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal.
Therefore, the Ghost General braved the pressure of being burned by the Buddha light and looked at Chu Xiu. In an instant, the scarlet light shone brightly. Like two sharp swords, it shot into Chu Xiu's mind, causing him to groan.
At this moment, illusions appeared in Chu Xiu's mind. It was as if he had fallen into a boundless sea of blood. Hungry ghosts tore at him, and the Yin wind eroded his bones. The feeling was extremely real.
Fortunately, Chu Xiu had refined the soul crystal of a high-level Demonic Ghost. His mental strength and the power of his primordial spirit had skyrocketed, so it only took him a few breaths to remove himself from the illusion.
Of course, if Chu Xiu had not refined the soul crystal, he would not have been targeted by the Ghost General.
It could only be said that everything was fate.
As soon as he regained consciousness, the Ghost General's crescent blade was already slashing towards him. The blade carried great power, and wherever it passed, it turned into a path of the netherworld.
The Ghost General did not have many tricks up his sleeves. Most of the time, it just slashed down monotonously. However, the power of each slash was not something that Chu Xiu could take head-on. He was forced to retreat step by step.
Suddenly gritting his teeth, Chu Xiu formed another seal. The Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal blasted out again. Under the purification of the Buddha light, the black mist in the Ghost General's armor was once again shattered.
However, this time, Chu Xiu did not retreat. Instead, he took the opportunity to take the initiative to advance. The blade in his hand shone brightly, and the Seven Limits, Misty Slash, and the blade intent of the Word Break slashed down one after another, bombarding the Ghost General's armor.
After the black mist in the Ghost General's armor was shattered, it could still gather again. Therefore, Chu Xiu suspected that there was a problem with the armor. He wanted to try and shatter it directly to see if the Ghost General could gather again.
After the Breaking Formation was integrated with Listen to Spring Rain, it could be said to be the best of the best magic weapons. In terms of pure sharpness, even Listen to Spring Rain at its peak was not as good as the Breaking Formation.
The Ghost General's armor was formed from the armor and weapons of the warriors who had died in the Central Plains over the years. Naturally, its material was not as good as the Breaking Formation.
Therefore, under such a violent slash by Chu Xiu, before the Ghost General could gather again, the armor had already shattered!
However, a scene that Chu Xiu could not accept appeared.
After the black mist returned to the Ghost General's body, two rays of scarlet light bloomed. Tentacle-Like objects extended out of the black mist, hooking onto the fragments of the Battle Armor and pulling them back into the Ghost General's body. Under the effect of the black mist, the Battle Armor fused together and did not seem to be damaged at all.
Seeing this scene, Chu Xiu's heart suddenly sank.
He had guessed wrong. The Ghost General's weak point was not the armor. The armor was the same as the black mist. As long as there were fragments, it could continue to recover.
Seeing that the Ghost General slashed again, Chu Xiu did not hesitate and continued to smash the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal.
This time, Chu Xiu did not attack the armor. Instead, he took advantage of the critical moment when the black mist disappeared to form the Vairocana Seal in his hand. He directly smashed it towards the scarlet eyes, and in an instant, a powerful Buddhist light enveloped it.
A mournful howl came from within the black mist. Clearly, this attack had injured the Demonic Ghost quite badly.
However, even though the scarlet eyes were no longer there, the black mist began to condense again and appeared inside the armor.
The only difference was that after the body reformed, the scarlet light in the Ghost General's eyes dimmed a little, and it was not as strong as before.
This scene made Chu Xiu's heart sink to the bottom.
Attacking the scarlet eyes was useful. It was definitely a weak point of the Ghost General.
However, the problem was that he had already used his mystique to destroy the Ghost General's eyes once, but the Ghost General could still revive. It was just that its aura was slightly weaker than before, but not by much. On the other hand, Chu Xiu could not hold on much longer.
The mystique of the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal consumed much less energy than the ordinary mystiques he had, especially when facing evil ghosts like the Ghost General. It was actually very worthwhile.
However, the problem was, how many more times could Chu Xiu use the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal?
Even though the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal consumed less energy than other mystiques like the Lawful Manifestations of Heaven and Earth, it was not so little that Chu Xiu could use it like an ordinary technique.
If this were to continue, he would definitely be the first one to be exhausted to death!
With the eyesight of Yu Wenfu and the others, they could clearly tell that Chu Xiu was currently in an extremely awkward situation.
His Buddhist mystique was truly astonishing. It was capable of taking on a Martial Immortal-level Demonic Ghost General head-on.
However, the Demonic Ghost General was not that easy to deal with. Being able to take on the Demonic Ghost General did not mean that one could kill it.
Looking at Chu Xiu's repeated failures, Yuwen Fu's eyes revealed a smug look.
Even though all sorts of variables had appeared in his plan, the final result was still the same.
At that moment, Chu Xiu was indeed in an incomparably wretched state.
Using the Cross-Shaped Lotus Seal three times in a row had consumed as much energy as using the complete Lawful Manifestations of Heaven and Earth.
Even though Chu Xiu still had the Clear Sky Reflecting Shadow as his trump card, he did not dare to use it.
The reason for that was because Chu Xiu was not confident that he would be able to kill the Demonic Ghost General after using the Clear Sky Reflecting Shadow.
This thing was simply too strange. Even though the Demonic Ghost General's attack method and form were completely different from the Demonic Ghosts that Chu Xiu had encountered before, their core was the same.
Every single Demonic Ghost General had a fatal weakness. Before the weakness could be found, the Demonic Ghost General would be incomparably powerful. However, once the weakness was found, the Demonic Ghost General would be able to easily kill it.
However, the problem was, which part of the Demonic Ghost General's weakness was it?
It could not be killed, it could not be smashed, and its strength was equivalent to that of a Martial Immortal-level expert. It simply did not have any weaknesses.
In fact, even if a Martial Immortal-level expert came, it would be easy to escape. However, to kill the monster would be incomparably difficult.
At that moment, Chu Xiu suddenly thought of something that he had overlooked the entire time.
Actually, the weakness of the Demonic Ghost General was very obvious. It should be said that its weakness had always been in front of him, in front of everyone. However, due to the Demonic Ghost General's enormous body and frightening strength, everyone had subconsciously overlooked it.
Even though Chu Xiu did not dare to say that he was a hundred percent certain, he was at least ninety percent certain that he could kill the Demonic Ghost General.
When the Demonic Ghost General swung its crescent blade down again, Chu Xiu suddenly formed hand seals. Then, the Primordial Spirit behind him began to shine with dazzling golden light. In an instant, it shone in the sky and pierced into the black fog.
An endless amount of blackness completely enveloped Chu Xiu's Primordial Spirit. It was the aura of death, the extremely gloomy Ghostly Energy of the Netherworld. It was continuously corroding Chu Xiu's Primordial Spirit.
However, Chu Xiu acted as if he did not notice it in the slightest. Controlling his Primordial Spirit, he continued to swim towards the deepest part of the Ghostly Energy of the Netherworld.
At the deepest part of the Ghostly Energy of the Netherworld was a scene of purgatory. Looking at it, Chu Xiu could not help but feel a chill in his heart.
