On both sides of the high peaks, on a narrow canyon path, a group of cultivators slowly walked over.
This group of cultivators were mainly Core Formation cultivators, and the leader was a Yuanying cultivator. There were many such groups in the crowd, and although their strength was not good, they still managed to come to the Ghost Nether Domain.
A woman's voice said, "After walking for half an hour, it seems that the protection time is about to come."
The leader Yuanying said, "Everyone stop, let's first set up a formation, just in case."
After saying that, Yuanying took out a formation plate and a formation flag, and after a while, a small defensive formation appeared in the middle of the path.
It was very punctual, and half an hour passed. The valley darkened, and a faint fog began to fill the surroundings.
Then, the sky suddenly turned dark, and only darkness could be seen. A ghastly ghost wind whistled in the valley, and sand and stones flew everywhere. With their eyesight, they could only see a small area around them.
Standing in the formation, the female cultivator was a little panicked, because the four golden characters in the sky had disappeared.
The female cultivator finally regretted and said, "If I had known, we would have just left the Immortal Mansion through that teleportation formation."
Yuanying Divine Lord coldly snorted, "What's the use of saying this now."
As they were talking, the Ghost Fog outside the array formation became even thicker. If one stood outside the array formation, one would feel a bone-piercing chill. Not only the female cultivator, but the other cultivators also spat out their own magic treasures in preparation.
Suddenly, a gloomy laughter came from outside the formation, "Hahahaha …"
The deep laughter sounded, and then more laughter followed. The laughter seemed to come from underground, and the sound became louder and louder, as if countless people were laughing. If one listened carefully, the laughter was actually accompanied by heart-wrenching roars. It was very terrifying.
Then, the ghost fog outside the formation began to spin and flow. In the center of the ghost fog, a huge ghost head slowly condensed. A pair of empty eyes stared at the people inside the formation, causing the female cultivators inside the formation to feel a chill run down their spines.
"This Ghost King has not eaten blood for many years." The ghost head's voice was very strange, like the sound of human bones colliding.
Yuanying in the array laughed, "Ghost King, you are only at the Yuanying stage. Watch my magic treasure!"
The Yuanying cultivator spat out his flying sword, and the other Core Formation cultivators also spat out their magic treasures to attack the Ghost King outside the formation. Everyone's thoughts were not bad. They stood in the formation and attacked from the outside.
But when they all released their magic treasures, they saw a black smoke-like ghost qi suddenly erupt from the defensive array like a fountain. Another ghost king appeared.
The cultivators' magic treasures were all outside the formation. Who would have thought that a Ghost King would appear inside the formation?
The huge ghost head laughed, opened its mouth, and sucked the female cultivator into its mouth.
"Ahhh!" The female cultivator screamed miserably and disappeared without a trace.
The people in the formation were all stunned. They didn't expect the Ghost King to be so ferocious and actually be able to swallow a person in one gulp.
After entering the formation, the Ghost King sucked in a few mouthfuls of blood. After swallowing a few people, he laughed and said, "This blood is enough for me to cultivate. I'll leave it to you guys."
With that, the Ghost King drilled into the ground.
Before the Yuanying Divine Lord could rejoice, he saw a few more black fountains erupt from the ground. Seven to eight ghost kings rushed out.
The Yuanying Divine Lord screamed miserably, "My life is over!"
On the other side of the canyon, a sage-like old Daoist snorted at a ghost head: "Ghost Emperor cultivation, what can you do to me? You should know that I'm already a late stage Soul Formation cultivator!"
Behind the ghost head, countless ghost heads appeared. All of them have Ghost Emperor cultivation. At a glance, there are actually dozens of them.
Celestial Being Yang Ding and Fang Yunlin entered from the same direction, so they are together.
Originally, Fang Yunlin didn't want to team up with this sinister old man. But now that they have no other choice, they can only team up and fight.
Celestial Being Yang Ding said, "The three of us will fight in a triangular formation. Back to back, it's safer."
Although Fang Yunlin and his wife are unwilling, they have no choice but to do so. After all, there are so many Ghost Emperors around them.
There are battles everywhere in the canyon. They don't know where there are so many Ghost Emperors and Ghost Kings. If these Ghost Emperors and Ghost Kings are released, they can probably occupy half of Yunyao.
The only ones who were relaxed were Ye Kong and the others. Along the way, the Ghost Kings stopped in their tracks. Even the low-level Ghost Emperors stayed far away from them.
The reason is because Ye Kong released the Wolf King.
After 50 years in the Mustard Seed Tower, the Wolf King has completely refined the awakened Old Demon's Yuanying. The Wolf King has advanced to the late stage Soul Formation. Coupled with its identity as a Soul Devouring Physique, ordinary Ghost Kings and Ghost Emperors are afraid of it. Although these Ghost Kings and Ghost Emperors are fierce, they are still very afraid of the Soul Devouring Physique that eats ghosts and spirits.
As for the Wolf King, he eats happily. As for those low stage ghosts, he directly absorbs them. However, what makes the Wolf King depressed is that these ghosts feel completely different from ordinary ghosts when he absorbs them.
"Master, these ghosts are very strange. I can't refine them when I absorb them. They then turn into traces of ghost qi and leave my body. I can't even keep them." The Wolf King said doubtfully.
"What does that mean?" Ye Kong has never eaten ghosts before, so he naturally can't understand what the Wolf King means.
The Wolf King said, "In any case, they are different from the ghosts I have devoured in the past. These ghosts don't feel like ghosts."
After the Wolf King stuttered, Hao Yilong had a flash of inspiration and said, "I also suspect that there are too many ghosts here. Could it be … that these ghosts are all phantoms?"
"Phantoms!" Everyone was startled by this bold guess.
If these were phantoms, then there would be no danger at all. What everyone saw was just an illusion.
The Wolf King also didn't dare to believe it and said, "It's very strange. I also guessed that they are phantoms, but I can feel a powerful ghost qi. I can't tell for sure."
As he said that, a heart-wrenching scream came from the front. Ye Kong and the others hurriedly followed the Wolf King.
With the Wolf King leading the way, the ghosts gave way and the ghost fog dispersed. Everyone went around a bend in the canyon and the view before them suddenly opened up. There was a huge basin in the distance and the corpses of a few cultivators nearby.
A female cultivator panicked and cried for help. There was a teleportation array not far away, but her feet were bitten by a few ghost heads. The distance of a few steps was the distance between life and death.
"Ye Kong! Save me! "The female cultivator cried out tragically.
Ye Kong looked up and saw that the female cultivator was the Phantom Demon Sect's True Monarch Xie Zhuang, who had a grudge against him. They were also unlucky. Out of the six people in the team, two had been killed by Can Tian. Later, they didn't find any treasures in the immortal abode. Now, not long after entering the Ghost Nether Domain, they were besieged by more than ten ghost kings and all of them died here.
Xie Zhuang used the Phantom Demon Technique to transform into a ghost king and survived until now. However, she found a ghost emperor beside her. The ghost emperor saw through her at a glance and opened its mouth to bite her leg.
Xie Zhuang saw someone coming over in panic, but she didn't expect it to be her enemy, Ye Kong. However, at this moment, she could only give it a try.
Ye Kong really didn't want to save her. He never saved his enemies. However, when he saw that Xie Zhuang's legs were eaten by ghosts, it looked really tragic.
"Wolf King, go and save her." It was rare for Ye Kong to do a good deed. However, when the Wolf King chased away all the ghost kings and ghost emperors, Xie Zhuang was already badly mutilated and not far from death.
"I'm sorry." When a person was about to die, his words were kind. Xie Zhuang smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect that the person who saved me before death would be my enemy … Although I don't have long to live, I still want to thank you. I have a communication token in my storage bag. Through this token, you can find out which cultivators belong to the Saint Devil Sect … Take this as a thank you gift."
Ye Kong asked doubtfully, "Can't you escape from Yuanying?"
Xie Zhuang smiled bitterly and said, "If I could escape, I would have done it long ago. The ghost aura entered my body and bound me to Yuanying. So, please help me. Thank you."
Xie Zhuang's so-called help was to let her die quickly and perish. This way, her soul would enter reincarnation. Otherwise, if she was contaminated by the ghost aura, her soul would also become a ghost and would never be able to reincarnate.
"Fine." Ye Kong killed her, shattering her Nascent Soul and destroying her Dao, allowing her soul to leave and enter the cycle of reincarnation.
"I hope you will be a good person in your next life." After saying that, Ye Kong took her storage bag. He didn't rush to look at it, but put it into his storage ring.
Looking at the scene and the corpses on the ground, Hao Yilong said, "Everyone, it's time to choose between life and death again … Although we don't know if this is real or an illusion, and we don't know what these ghosts are, but, there is one thing that is very clear …"
Hao Yilong paused for a moment and said, "That is, people will die here! It's not the death of the physical body, but what cultivators fear the most, death! Everyone saw that after being bitten by these Ghost Kings and Ghost Emperors, Yuanying couldn't escape and a thousand years of cultivation was destroyed … Although I, Hao Yilong, hope that everyone will continue to follow me, I can't be so selfish. " Hao Yilong pointed at the Teleportation Array in front and said, "There is a Teleportation Array in front. If you leave now, you can still make it. If you leave this village, there will be no more shops like this. If you don't want to continue treasure hunting, you can go in … Don't worry, no one will laugh at you. To be honest, I want to go in too."
Li Jiankuang thought about it and walked out. He said, "I'm leaving. I'm sorry, I can't continue with you. I got the Nine Reincarnation Fruit and am close to becoming a Soul Formation cultivator. I'm sorry, I don't want to die here. I'm sorry everyone."
Ye Kong said, "Old Li, there's no need to say sorry. If I were you, I would have left too. Maybe I would have left even earlier than you."
Everyone laughed. No one mocked or scolded Li Jiankuang because everyone was here to search for treasures. They felt that it was enough to find the treasures and that he could leave at any time. There was also a rule in the Essence Blood Contract.
Li Jiankuang left. He said that he would wait outside the Immortal Abode for everyone to come out and return to Yunyao together.
Li Jiankuang thought that the treasure he needed the most was the Nine Reincarnation Fruit. He got it, so he left satisfied.
However, the others weren't satisfied. They would continue to explore, but danger would keep appearing.
Pan Dong smiled and said, "I believe that Ye Kong will bring us safely to the core of the Immortal Abode. There will be great gains!"
