(Did the Six Paths slack off again? My grandfather passed away at the age of eighty-eight. I'm very relieved that he no longer has to suffer the pain of being tortured day and night.)
"That's …" Inside the shelter, the four people stared at the Blue Evil Ghost being burned by the purple flames. The Transcendent Fifth Layer cultivator trembled as a powerful aura surged out from him, a dim light flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"World Energy, it should be a kind of Earth Flame," The Transcendent Fifth Layer cultivator quickly said.
"It actually possesses a kind of Earth Flame, if I had known earlier, I would have let him in."
"That's right, let him in first, then kill him and take the Earth Flame."
The three Transcendent Fourth Layer cultivators were annoyed.
World Energy was extremely precious and rare. Although the four of them had extraordinary backgrounds and high talent, so far, only the Transcendent Fifth Layer cultivator had obtained a World Energy, the other three hadn't.
Now, seeing a World Energy slip away right under their noses, a sense of unwillingness filled their hearts.
…..
Chen Zong was a human, flesh and blood, so after fighting for a long time, he began to feel tired.
His strength was being consumed and his limbs were gradually losing strength, but Evil Ghosts continued to appear, surging forward like a tidal wave.
He had found a shelter, but there were already people blocking him from entering, which was the same as indirectly killing him, so Chen Zong also harbored killing intent towards them.
But now, it was only killing intent, the only thing he could do was to put down his killing intent and survive.
If he died, everything would be for naught.
[Kill, kill, kill!]
The Purple Cloud True Flame's power was constantly being consumed and now only had about ten percent left. If it ran out, Chen Zong would temporarily lose the ability to kill Evil Ghosts, and with his limited Spirit Energy and Dragon Force, it would be difficult to deal with Evil Ghosts.
With a flash of red light, another Scarlet Evil Ghost appeared. This Scarlet Evil Ghost was different from the one they had encountered before, its appearance was that of a giant, each of its bones extremely thick, especially the bones in its arms which were condensed together like steel, giving it a terrifying appearance.
It threw a punch at Chen Zong. There was no fluctuation of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, but the pure strength of the punch combined with the power of the Ghost Fire. The air was sucked dry by this punch, forming a vacuum that crushed toward Chen Zong, suffocating Chen Zong and making him feel like his body was being restrained and squeezed.
This punch was very powerful, even more powerful than the previous Scarlet Evil Ghost. If he was hit, Chen Zong knew that he would not be able to withstand it and would be seriously injured.
He used the last ten percent of the Purple Cloud True Flame's power, mixed it with his Dragon Power and Spiritual Energy, and poured it into the glove on his hand. He activated the power of a Grade 1 Spirit Artifact and punched.
Like a dragon or a tiger, it was extremely ferocious.
Purple flames were burning on the gloves. It was dazzling and dreamy.
With a boom, the large and small fists collided. The air seemed to freeze at that moment. Then, with a tremor, countless ripples exploded from where the two fists collided, spreading out in all directions. These ripples carried the power of the Purple Cloud True Flame and the Ghost Flame, and they wreaked havoc in a radius of dozens of meters. As they swept past the bodies of the Deep Blue Evil Ghosts, a horrifying scene occurred.
One by one, the Blue Evil Ghosts froze, as if they had been immobilized. Then, the Ghost Fire in their eye sockets flickered like a candle flame in the wind and was extinguished in the blink of an eye. The halo on the white bones disappeared, and the bones became gray and withered again, scattering one after another.
The impact of the tyrannical power caused the ground to crack open and spread horizontally.
With another boom, the tyrannical power hit Chen Zong, causing Chen Zong's arm to tremble. He could not help but take three steps back. Each step was so heavy that it caused the ground to collapse.
Although the huge Scarlet Evil Ghost was not repelled, its body swayed. The Purple Cloud True Flame quickly spread through its arm and covered its entire body, burning fiercely.
A mournful roar came out of the Scarlet Evil Ghost's hollow mouth, like the last desperate cry of a ferocious beast. It was extremely ear-piercing. The Scarlet Evil Ghost attacked again, its fists continuously bombarding Chen Zong.
Chen Zong used his Illusionary Wind Cloud Kick and quickly dodged. Some of the Dark Blue Evil Ghosts were struck by the fists of the scarlet evil ghosts. The tyrannical power was so strong that none of the Dark Blue Evil Ghosts could withstand it. Under the impact of the fists, all of their bones were shattered into pieces. Even the Dark Soul Fire was affected by the Purple Cloud True Flame and dissipated in an instant.
Ten breaths!
For a full ten breaths of time, the frenzied Scarlet Nefarious Ghost chased after Chen Zong. Its two fists killed over a hundred Deep Blue Nefarious Ghosts, relieving the pressure Chen Zong was facing to a certain extent.
After the Scarlet Evil Ghost died, it left behind an irregular pure red crystal the size of a lotus seed. Just like before, it caused a riot among the Blue Evil Ghosts.
Chen Zong quickly grabbed it and put it into his storage ring.
Using his leg technique, he rushed forward while repelling the Blue Evil Ghosts. Each of his hands was holding a low-grade Primordial Stone. He used the Clear Sky Technique to constantly restore his consumed spirit power.
As for the power of the Purple Cloud True Flame, it was also recovering, but it was relatively slow.
"I just hope that I can find a shelter as soon as possible." Chen Zong secretly said. He still had hope. Even if it was the last moment, he would not give up hope.
It had only been a little more than two hours since the appearance of the Evil Ghosts at night. Chen Zong's luck was not good. He only found a shelter, but there were already people inside, and the people inside were not willing to let Chen Zong in.
On a night like this, a shelter was very important because only by hiding in a shelter would one not be attacked by the Evil Ghosts.
There was no pattern to the appearance of a shelter, and it really depended on luck.
The power of the Purple Cloud True Flame had only recovered a little. At most, it could kill a few Blue Evil Ghosts. Chen Zong did not intend to use it, because there was no difference between a few more Blue Evil Ghosts and a few fewer Blue Evil Ghosts.
A sudden change occurred. The Blue Evil Ghosts in front of him paused. Under Chen Zong's gaze, they actually took the initiative to retreat to the left and right.
In the words of the Floating Cloud King, the Battlefield Evil Ghosts had no intelligence. They only had chaotic bloodthirsty instincts left behind by the remnant soul consciousness. They belonged to the dead, and when they discovered the aura of a living person, they would violently besiege.
Moreover, they would also devour the souls of living people and subconsciously strengthen themselves.
Since the appearance of the Evil Ghosts until now, Chen Zong had been surrounded and chased by them. As long as they discovered him, the Evil Ghosts would attack like a riot. There had never been a situation like this. They actually stopped and retreated. Moreover, their retreat seemed a little scattered, but the direction was clear.
It was as if they were greeting some great master.
Immediately, Chen Zong's heart jumped uncontrollably as a strong sense of dread emerged from the depths of his heart, like a flood breaking through a dam.
[Danger!]
[A threat!]
Chen Zong's complexion suddenly changed, and without hesitation, he immediately retreated.
At the same time, a purple light appeared in front of him and rapidly approached, causing Chen Zong to shiver.
"Purple Nether Evil Ghosts!"
The Floating Cloud King had said that the Battlefield Evil Ghosts were divided into three types, or rather, three levels. The lowest level was the Blue Evil Ghosts, which had the largest number and whose strength reached the half-step Transcendent Realm.
Even more powerful were the Scarlet Evil Ghosts, which were much smaller in number than the Blue Evil Ghosts, not even one ten-thousandth of the total number. They were not weak, having reached the Transcendent Realm, with the weakest reaching the First Layer and the strongest reaching the Fourth Layer.
Of the two Scarlet Evil Ghosts Chen Zong had encountered before, one was at the Third Layer of the Transcendent Realm and the other was at the Fourth Layer of the Transcendent Realm.
The strongest Evil Ghost was called the Purple Nether Evil Ghost, and even the weakest one was at the Seventh Layer of the Transcendent Realm, while the strongest one was at the Ninth Layer of the Transcendent Realm.
In other words, after entering the Ancient Battlefield, if one was unlucky enough to encounter a Purple Nether Evil Ghost, the chances of dying were very high.
However, the Floating Cloud King had also said that Purple Nether Evil Ghosts were very few in number.
It was more than two meters tall and had a humanoid shape. Its bones were all condensed, and it looked like it was wearing a skeleton armor. It was covered in a purple-white halo, and its head also looked like it was wearing a ferocious skeleton helmet. In the depths of its pitch-black hollow eyes, two strange purple flames were jumping and burning.
Surrounded by a purple-white halo, bone chains as thick as a normal person's arm wrapped around the Purple Nether Evil Ghost's body like poisonous snakes. The two ends of these bone chains were as sharp as spears and were covered in barbs, obviously used for slaughter.
A terrifying aura emanated from the Purple Abyss Evil Ogre and the skeletal chains. It spread out in all directions, shocking Chen Zong and making his hair stand on end.
[Retreat, retreat, retreat!]
Chen Zong pushed his Hurricane Fantasy Cloud Leg to the limit, disregarding the consumption of his Spirit Qi in order to escape.
This Purple Nether Evil Ghost was at least a Transcendent Realm Seventh Layer cultivator. Even if Chen Zong had a sword, unless it was a Seventh-Grade Spirit Artifact, he would not be its opponent.
The Purple Nether Evil Ghost's eyes stared at Chen Zong, causing Chen Zong's complexion to change drastically as a sense of horror welled up from the depths of his soul, causing him to feel dizzy.
Fortunately, Chen Zong's soul was very strong and the dizziness disappeared in an instant. Immediately after, Chen Zong felt that the Purple Nether Evil Ghost seemed to be slightly surprised.
Surprised!
This was an emotion that only intelligent creatures would have, but this Ancient Battlefield Evil Ghost was actually said to have no intelligence. Was this an illusion or was it his imagination?
Chen Zong didn't have time to think about it, because the bone chains around the Purple Nether Evil Ghost had already locked onto Chen Zong, and a cold and sharp aura threatened to pierce through Chen Zong.
In the blink of an eye, the bone chains broke through the air and a sharp sound rang out.
Chen Zong reacted extremely quickly and immediately sent out Blue Cloud Space Shattering Sword Qi.
* Pop! *
The Sword Qi shattered but was unable to stop it.
The power of the four Spirit Wheels in Chen Zong's body was fully released, and his Spirit Qi and Heart Sword Force instantly erupted. The True Flames Body Tempering Art was also fully circulated, causing the blazing Dragon Force to erupt. The Purple Cloud True Flames, which had just recovered a little, also burst out in an instant. Immediately, a blue light filled the air and dyed Chen Zong's hair and body blue. It was the Grand Accomplishment Blue Cloud Sword Body.
The Blue Cloud Sword Body was only a First-Grade Secret Technique, so it was no longer enough for Chen Zong to keep up, but it could still increase his strength a little, so it was better than nothing.
The remaining eight Blue Cloud Space Shattering Sword Qi were instantly mobilized by Chen Zong and covered his fist.
This was all the power that Chen Zong could erupt with at the moment.
With a loud boom, Chen Zong felt an extremely terrifying force explode from the tip of the skeletal chain. It shattered the Green Cloud Sky Shattering Sword Qi one after another, and finally shattered the first-grade spiritual weapon glove. He felt as if his palm had been pierced through and shattered.
