"Haha, Ye Kong, I can't kill you, and you can't kill me. Why don't we do this?" The Ghost Emperor Of Hachibara, who had turned into a ghostly mist, laughed and said, "Let's make peace. Even if it's a draw, you can bring those guys across the bridge, and I won't chase after you. What do you think?"
Ye Kong sneered at the Ghost Emperor Of Hachibara's suggestion. "It's too late to make peace. I'm going to seek justice for those cultivators you devoured!"
The Ghost Emperor Of Hachibara said angrily, "You idiot, look at those cultivators you saved. They're all fighting on the Puluo Heavenly Staircase. Who cares about you anymore? This is the Heavenly Dao. Everyone is selfish, and there's no justice! "
Ye Kong shook his head and said, "The Heavenly Dao is unfair, but I have justice in my heart. They're selfish, and I don't want to be selfish. This is Ye Kong, and Ye Kong is just like that! "
After saying that, Ye Kong opened his mouth and spat out five flying swords. Each time, he spat out a flying sword — the Heavy Jade Gold Sword, the Musical Bamboo Sword, the Violet Jade Fierce Water Sword, the Northern Cold Fire Sword, and the Earthly Earth Sword. The five flying swords shot out one by one, forming the Five Elements Sword Formation, which surrounded the ghostly mist.
"I'll show you the Void Training Stage's Five Elements Sword Formation!" Ye Kong shouted, raised his hand, pointed, and uttered a mantra, "Break!"
The Five Elements Sword Formation had been used once before, against the Sanguine Monarch's Granny Blood. However, at that time, Ye Kong was only in the Yuanying Stage. Now that he was in the Void Training Stage, the power of the sword formation was so strong that the entire Immortal Formation was affected.
In the huge immortal array, the ground was covered in cold fire, but the sky was extremely dry. The sound of bamboo and woodwind shocked everyone, and waves of earth appeared … The entire immortal array seemed to have reached the end of the world. The only thing that was not affected was the Universal Stairway.
Before Ye Kong could unleash his strongest attack, Can Yu and the others, who were setting up the array formation, felt the power of the attack and were stunned. The Ghost Emperor Of Hachibara, who was in the middle of the Five Elements Sword Array, was also very nervous. Not daring to take the attack head-on, he teleported and disappeared without a trace.
"Ghost Emperor, what kind of Ghost Emperor are you? Come out! " Ye Kong shouted in a deep voice. He hated himself for being too rash. This way, he had actually scared the Ghost Emperor away. However, he also didn't know that the might of the Five Elements Sword Formation used by a Void Training Stage cultivator would actually be so powerful.
"I won't come out. What can you do to me?" The Ghost Emperor's voice was erratic. He appeared in the immortal array, and this immortal array was like his home. He was very familiar with the immortal array and could use it to hide himself. Ye Kong couldn't find him at all.
The Ghost Emperor smiled and said, "Do you know why I'm the only one who became the Ghost Emperor out of all the ghost energy? That's because I cultivated a Primordial Spirit. With a Primordial Spirit, I can think, just like you humans … But in such a big place, do you know where my body is? Do you know where my Primordial Spirit is? Haha, kid, accept your fate. When your Beast Spirit Talisman's time is up and you recover your original cultivation, I'll fight you again. Now, this Ghost Emperor is going to rest. "
After the Ghost Emperor finished speaking, he didn't say another word. No matter how Ye Kong cursed, he didn't appear or reply. This made things difficult for Ye Kong. He looked up at the Proto Sky Stairway and saw that Celestial Being Yang Ding was about to reach the top. The others were also about to reach the top. If he went back now, he might be able to catch up and snatch a Celestial Stairway.
However, what he wanted to do more was to kill the Ghost Emperor!
Ye Kong raised his hand and threw something into his mouth. During a battle, it was common for cultivators to consume pills afterward.
After a short while, Ye Kong's figure suddenly started to shrink and his strength started to weaken. It felt as if the Beast Spirit Talisman was about to lose its effect.
In fact, the Ghost Emperor hid in a spot in the air and didn't rest for a moment. He stared at Ye Kong. When he saw Ye Kong's cultivation weakening, he was instantly overjoyed.
Originally, Ye Kong's cultivation was at the late Void Refinement Stage. However, at this moment, his cultivation suddenly dropped to the late Soul Formation Stage!
However, the Ghost Emperor was still very careful because Ye Kong hadn't transformed back into a human. He was afraid that this was Ye Kong's trick to lure the enemy.
However, Ye Kong also felt that his cultivation had dropped, so he put away his flying sword and said, "Forget it. If you don't fight, I'll go snatch the Celestial Stairway."
Seeing that Ye Kong was about to escape, the Ghost Emperor Hachibara became anxious. He was raised in the formation to prevent cultivators from going over. Coupled with his bloodthirsty nature, he decided to appear.
Before he appeared, he carefully looked at Ye Kong's cultivation.
That's right, he was at the late Soul Formation Stage! There was no mistake, and it was definitely not something that could be concealed by pills!
Since he was really at the late Soul Formation Stage, there was nothing to be afraid of!
"Brat! Die! " The Ghost Emperor Hachibara suddenly appeared. His two arms turned into huge black spears, and he stabbed at Ye Kong's back.
Ye Kong panicked. He teleported to the center of the platform and fled toward the Bridge of Life and Death.
"Haha, there are also times when you can't do it. Release that sword formation again!" The Ghost Emperor Hachibara laughed loudly. He also jumped onto the platform and chased after Qin Wentian.
When he arrived near the Bridge of Life and Death, the Divine Lord Can Yu, who was waiting for him, shouted, "Open the formation!"
The formation that Wu Ganhui from the Gloomy Corpse Demonic Sect had set up was a little different. It wasn't a traditional formation that used formation flags and spirit stones to set up the formation. If that was the case, the Ghost Emperor Hachibara wasn't stupid. Why would he come over?
The formation that Wu Ganhui had set up was a large formation that was controlled by people. With the people as the point and the cultivators as the formation eyes, more than twenty cultivators each held a formation flag and stood in the pre-prepared positions.
Wu Ganhui patted his storage bag, and a golden flag flew out and stabbed into the ground in front of him. The formation flag was several feet tall, and the triangular flag fluttered in the wind.
The Ghost Emperor Hachibara was stunned for a moment, then he laughed. "I was wondering why you guys didn't leave. It turns out that you guys set up a bullsh * t formation. You human cultivators don't know how powerful I am. You don't know how much I know about this immortal formation. What use is a formation you guys set up here to me? You're all courting death! Wait for me to break the formation, then I'll kill you all! "
Wu Ganhui sneered. "Ghost Emperor, let me tell you clearly. This is a Soul Locking Formation! Our Gloomy Corpse Demonic Sect refines corpses and ghosts, so we often encounter powerful ghost cultivators. That's why our ancestor invented this formation to lock the essence spirits of ghost cultivators. Let's see where you can run this time! "
Then, under Wu Ganhui's command, more than twenty people moved quickly. Although it was the first time these cultivators set up this formation, they were all Perfected Lords and Divine Lord. They were experienced and knowledgeable, so they used it meticulously.
Once the Soul Locking Formation was activated, the airflow with the formation eye as the center started to spin. The airflow had a strong suppressive effect on the ghost mist, and it actually suppressed the Ghost Emperor Hachibara into a small area in the center.
Looking at the power of the formation, Ye Kong couldn't help but sigh. "You should've said that with this formation, no one would die, and everyone would pass the first stage."
Wu Ganhui smiled bitterly. "This is my sect's secret. If it wasn't for you, my Friend Ye, I would rather die than tell so many people about this formation. Sigh, how is my Gloomy Corpse Demonic Sect going to survive in the future? Besides, if I told everyone before, who would cooperate sincerely? Everyone wants everyone else to die, so that they can have the chance to take the treasures for themselves! "
Ye Kong couldn't help but be stunned. He once again saw the sinister hearts of cultivators. They would rather everyone die together than everyone live together.
Just as they were talking, the Ghost Emperor Hachibara laughed again. "After all this time, it's just a useless formation. That's right, you've trapped my essence spirit, but do you have the ability to subdue me? Come and kill me? Come and subdue me? Haha, even Ye Kong, you're only at the late stage of Soul Formation. Is your sword formation as strong as before? Do you dare to come over? Can you kill me? "
Ye Kong also laughed and said, "Idiot, you're the idiot through and through. You even fell for this kind of trick. If I really don't have my cultivation, why would I set up this formation? To tell you the truth, we lured you here to kill you! "
The Ghost Emperor Hachibara panicked, but he still forced himself to say, "No, that's impossible. I've seen it, you really dropped a realm! I can't be wrong, you can't hide it from me! "
Ye Kong raised his hand and took out a snow-white lotus petal. "Ghost Emperor, do you know this? You don't. I know you don't. Then let me tell you, this is called Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus. Eating one of its leaves will immediately drop a realm, and it will never increase again. "
Can Yu and the others were also shocked by what they heard. They had all heard of this thing, but they only saw it in ancient records. They didn't even dare to think about the real Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus. This Ye Kong not only had heaven-defying treasures, but even the heavenly treasures he took out were also heaven-defying. They really didn't know where this kid came from.
The Ghost Emperor Hachibara still didn't understand after hearing Ye Kong's words. He asked, "There's such a powerful lotus petal, but you already said that eating it will drop a realm, and it won't increase, so why did you still eat it?"
Ye Kong laughed. "That's why I said you're stupid. If I can't recover, would I still eat it? Let me tell you, as long as you eat one more petal, your cultivation will immediately recover! "
After saying that, Ye Kong raised his hand and stuffed the Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus into his mouth, chewing it in two big mouthfuls.
Immediately after, his cultivation level rose rapidly.
Seeing Ye Kong's actions, most of the cultivators shook their heads. This kid, what a waste, who plays like you? This Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus is so precious, and one petal is a priceless treasure. You ate two in one go just to kill that bullsh * t Ghost Emperor. So what if you let him go? You're too much, are you here to specially disgust us poor people?
As for Can Yu, Wu Ganhui, and the others, they looked at Ye Kong with admiration.
One had to know that this Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus was so tyrannical that eating it would cause one's cultivation base to drop …
In the future, when Can Yu returned to Tian Can Demon School to talk to the disciples, he said, "Too ruthless, this person is too ruthless. His ruthlessness towards himself is not the slightest bit inferior to our Tian Can Demon School … If it was me, I definitely wouldn't dare to eat it. Although the books say so, who knows if eating the second petal will cause one's cultivation base to drop by another realm? "
The reason why Ye Kong was so bold wasn't necessarily because he was ruthless, but because he saw Yan Ping eat it with his own eyes. Since someone had eaten it, what was there for him to be afraid of?
His cultivation base rose to the Late Void Refinement Realm. Then, he smiled faintly and spat out five flying swords.
"Ghost Emperor, you don't even recognize the Nine Nether Ink Heart Lotus. You've suffered because you're uncultured. Let me give you a piece of advice, read more books in your next life. Even if you become a ghost, you still need to be a little cultured! "
After saying that, Ye Kong raised his hand and pointed at the Ghost Emperor in the formation, saying coldly, "Five … swords … combine … into … one …"
