"Who dares to trespass into this sovereign's territory? Not only did you not come to greet this sovereign, you even killed this sovereign's disciple. Tell me, how should this sovereign deal with you?"
While Yue Song and Liu Ming were searching everywhere, a dark cloud descended from above. Ge Changting descended with his disciple as his black robes fluttered in the wind.
"A mere ghost cultivator dares to call himself a sovereign? You really think too highly of yourself. Move aside, I don't have the time to deal with you right now," Niu Jingtai coldly shouted.
"Kaka, very good. You've got guts. Ever since this sovereign advanced to Ghost Monkey, it's rare to meet someone who dares to speak to this sovereign like this. It just so happens that this sovereign is lacking two Ghost Monkey level skeletons. The two of you will have to be a little more humble and offer up your Origin Spirits for this sovereign to use."
Ge Changting laughed heartily with his hands on his hips.
"Puny ghost cultivator, you don't know the difference between life and death!" Niu Jingtai slapped his storage pouch, and an ox-shaped puppet that was several meters tall with two black horns and four red eyes landed on the ground with a loud bang.
The ox-shaped puppet's breathing was heavy, and its nostrils exuded a heavy and shocking aura of spiritual fire.
"Four-eyed Ox-Fire! No wonder you're so arrogant. " Ge Changting's pupils shrank. Four-eyed Ox-Fire was an extremely rare type of yang fire. Its might was even stronger than the innate yang fire of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. It had an extremely strong restraining effect on Yin fiends and ghosts.
"That's right. If you know what's good for you, scram. This young master has no energy to waste on the two of you." Although Niu Jingtai had taken out his puppet beast, he didn't want to get into a fight with this powerful ghost cultivator. After all, finding Lu Xiaotian as soon as possible and taking back the Thousand Bamboo School's secret technique was the most important thing.
"You're courting death. Do you think a mere Four-eyed Ox-Fire can do anything to this sovereign?" Ge Changting's eyes flashed with an ominous glint as he took out an extremely pure blue bottle. A large amount of green fire poured out from the small blue bottle, like mercury spilling over the ground. In the blink of an eye, it had swallowed up an area of several hundred feet in radius. Ge Changting laughed sinisterly, "Let's see if your Four-eyed Ox-Fire is stronger or my Yin Fiend Corpse Fire!"
"So much Baleful Yin Corpse Fire!" Niu Jingtai and Yue Song were both shocked. Although they didn't know how troublesome it was to refine the Baleful Yin Corpse Fire, even the corpses of ordinary mortals could only produce a small amount of Corpse Fire. Even such a large amount of Corpse Fire would have to be collected from at least a million people, not to mention the Baleful Yin Corpse Fire.
They were in big trouble now. Yue Song originally thought that Niu Jingtai's action of infuriating this Ghost Cultivator was very rash. Because Niu Jingtai's Four-eyed Bull Fire had a certain restraining effect on Ghost Cultivators, he did not stop him. However, the methods used by this Ghost Cultivator had already exceeded the limits of what the two of them could handle.
"Wait a moment!" Yue Song hurriedly shouted.
"It's too late. Do you think that I'm playing house and playing around with you?" Ge Changting sneered. At this time, the green Yin Fiend Corpse Fire had already spread to a radius of several li. This area was like a green sea of fire. The surrounding trees that were affected by it began to slowly turn black and lose their vitality. In the blink of an eye, this area of several li had become a barren land without any vitality.
Waves of green flames surged towards Niu Jingtai and Yue Song.
"Do it!" Niu Jingtai's originally somewhat arrogant expression had completely disappeared. What replaced it was a paleness. The gigantic bull-shaped puppet opened its mouth and spat out a fiery red wave of flames, which collided with the surging Yin Fiend Corpse Fire.
The Four-eyed Bull Fire was a Yang fire, while the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire was an evil item. The two were like fire and water. When they collided, they went head-to-head with each other.
"Sizzle …"
The two types of flames were being consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Yue Song had put up a Spiritual Shield, he could still feel the sinister and cold energy coming from the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire. It was too late to blame Niu Jingtai now. Without hesitation, he took out a gigantic blue centipede puppet.
The blue centipede was sixty to seventy feet long. Although it was huge, it was abnormally agile. Yue Song placed a mid-grade spirit stone in a groove. The centipede puppet raised its head and spat out a gigantic beam of light with a destructive aura. It passed through the green sea of fire and shot towards Ge Changting.
"I didn't stay here for nothing." Ge Changting did not panic. He waved his hand again, and hundreds of tall white skeletons formed a formation in front of him. They held bone spears and bone swords in their hands. The few leading skeletons even held bone shields made of white bones. Compared to the simple skeletons under his disciple's command, they were undoubtedly much stronger.
The hundreds of tall white skeletons threw their bone spears and bone swords at the beam of light. They were quickly repelled. The skeletons caught the spears and swords that had bounced back and threw them again. This repeated a few times. More than ten skeletons were destroyed, but the beam of light's power was also depleted.
At this moment, the skeletons were advancing through the flames. Not only did the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire not cause them any harm, it made the skeletons even more ferocious. They formed a formation and advanced with ferocious momentum.
The bull-shaped puppet opened its mouth and spat out Four-eyed Bull Fire. Unfortunately, compared to the surging Yin Fiend Corpse Fire, it was like trying to put out a burning cart with a cup of water.
The centipede puppet relied on its powerful body to crush several skeletons. However, the dozen skeletons that had been destroyed by the beam of light earlier actually struggled to get up from the ground under the influence of the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire. They picked up nearby hand and foot bones and pieced them together. Then, they joined the skeletons besieging Niu Jingtai and Yue Song.
"Junior Brother Niu, this fiend is too ferocious. If the two of us continue like this, we'll be exhausted to death by this ghost cultivator sooner or later. We can't stay here for long. Let's go! " Seeing the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire getting closer and closer, even with a protective shield, they could still feel the shocking eerie aura coming from the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire. Yue Song controlled the centipede puppet to force away the skeletons that were close to them and flew into the air.
Niu Jingtai also knew that he had been a little careless. Although this ghost cultivator's cultivation was not high, under the nourishment of the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire, the skeletons under his control could be restored after being destroyed. It was impossible to kill them all. Wanting to pass through these skeletons to attack the black-clothed ghost cultivator was no different from a fool's dream. Yue Song was right. They really couldn't continue fighting.
Ge Changting smiled sinisterly. He stretched out his hand and slapped forward. The Yin Fiend Corpse Fire gently swelled together. It swept towards the two in the air.
However, those skeletons were unable to fly into the air. Although the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire alone was not a small threat to Foundation Establishment cultivators, it was still unable to kill them in one blow. Seeing that the two of them had already flown into the air, Ge Changting's face was full of vexation. If he had known earlier, he would have killed more spiritual birds and refined them into flying corpses. Otherwise, he would not have let these two very good prey escape. Once he killed these two Foundation Establishment cultivators and refined them into skeletons, his strength would increase explosively by several times. However, this was just an 'if'. With his strength, killing one of them would be a piece of cake. However, there were two of them, and they advanced and retreated at the same time. He was unable to stop them, and could only watch as they flew higher and higher, leaving the range of the Baleful Yin Corpse Fire.
"This person who cultivates the Ghost Dao is indeed powerful." Yue Song and Yue Song, who had fled in a sorry state, did not have it easy either. Looking at the blazing green sea of fire below, the two of them felt a lingering fear. If they were alone, they definitely would not have been able to escape the other party's pursuit. Fortunately, although this ghost cultivator was powerful, he did not have the strength to kill the two of them in a short time. However, even so, it was still extremely terrifying. If they did not escape as soon as possible, the two of them would only be exhausted to death.
"Bastards!" Seeing the two of them flee, Ge Changting was somewhat furious.
"M-Master, what should we do now?" the eldest disciple, the black-robed man, asked in a trembling voice. He was afraid that his master's anger would be vented on him.
"What can we do? Foundation Establishment cultivators have already arrived here. Who knows when the news will spread? If it were a few loose cultivators, it would be fine. However, if it were disciples of those Immortal Sects, once we leave, I'm afraid that it won't be long before even more powerful people arrive. We can't stay here any longer. "
Ge Changting weighed the pros and cons. He had only advanced to Ghost Monkey not long ago. Although he could be considered powerful compared to some Foundation Establishment cultivators who had just entered the Foundation Establishment realm, once he faced a mid Foundation Establishment cultivator, he could only run for his life. There was a chance that he might not even be able to escape. Moreover, the might of his Fiendish Yin Corpse Fire still had room for improvement. Once his foundation stabilized, he could kill one or two early Foundation Establishment cultivators and refine them into skeletons. At that time, even mid Foundation Establishment cultivators would not be able to do anything to him.
Looking at the corpses that covered the mountains and plains, he was afraid that it would be too late for him to collect them like before. It seemed that he could only hurry.
After making up his mind, Ge Changting controlled the Fiendish Yin Corpse Fire to surge forward. Wisps of corpse fire constantly emerged from the scattered corpses in the mountains and plains, and were absorbed by the sea of fire.
Lu Xiaotian had just finished refining the copper puppet. Although his control over it was still lacking compared to the waxen middle-aged man, he could still command it in battle and become a reliable helper.
Hm? Even though he was inside the cave, he could feel a cold chill surging through the rocks towards him. Even though he was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he still felt extremely uncomfortable. Lu Xiaotian left the cave and saw a wave of green flames surging towards him from several hundred meters away.
Fiendish Yin Corpse Fire! Lu Xiaotian's pupils contracted and he hurriedly flew into the air with the Earth Splitting Saber. He was afraid that the Fiendish Yin Corpse Fire would spread to him. Even though he was so far away, he already felt uncomfortable. If it really did reach him, it would be no small matter.
"There's actually another lone Foundation Establishment cultivator. Haha, the heavens are really helping me!" Originally, Ge Changting was still unhappy about Yue Song and his companion's escape, but there was nothing he could do. After all, if they were determined to escape, he would not be able to stop them on his own. He never expected that after those two left, another Foundation Establishment cultivator would come knocking on his door. It would be difficult for one person to escape from the palm of his hand. Ge Changting stepped on the flying hook. Without saying a word, he waved his withered hand and a dark cloud rolled up, turning into a wolf's head. It viciously bit towards Lu Xiaotian.
"A ghost cultivator comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator." Even if the ghost cultivator in front of him wasn't the mastermind of this calamity caused by the dispute between the countries, he probably couldn't escape responsibility. Killing intent flashed through Lu Xiaotian's eyes. He attacked without holding back. The Earth Splitting Saber shone with a golden light and cut through the wolf's head formed by the dark cloud. His momentum didn't stop. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the top of the ghost cultivator's head and chopped down with the momentum of Mount Tai.
Ge Changting was shocked. He didn't expect the flying dagger of the youth in front of him to be so sharp. However, he didn't want to compete with Lu Xiaotian in the air. Moreover, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to block this attack alone. Ge Changting took advantage of the momentum to rapidly descend to the ground. At the same time, he summoned a huge bone shield and the hundreds of skeletons.
After the hundreds of skeletons appeared, they each threw the bone spears in their hands, weaving a thick layer of bone on Ge Changting's bone shield.
The Earth Splitting Saber chopped down from the air and solidly chopped on the bone shield. With a boom, Ge Changting's body rapidly fell into the sea of fire as if he was struck by lightning. Fortunately, the skeletons below supported him, otherwise he would have fallen badly. Even so, several skeletons were crushed to pieces by the pressure. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Ge Changting wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised his head to look at Lu Xiaotian who was still in the air wanting to attack again. "This golden saber is not bad. It's incomparably sharp. But do you think this Venerable's methods are only limited to this?"
After saying that, Ge Changting laughed strangely. His five fingers hooked in the air. The dark cloud wolf's head that was hit by the Earth Splitting Saber just now collapsed in the air but didn't scatter. Instead, it turned into a gray net woven by ghost energy and covered Lu Xiaotian's head.
"As long as I force this brat into the Yin Fiend Corpse Fire and don't let him escape, sooner or later I'll exhaust him to death. If two can't stop him, do you think one can escape?" Ge Changting thought fiercely in his heart. It just so happened that he attracted the golden saber's attack. Otherwise, with just this gray net, he probably wouldn't have been able to stop this brat.
This was a bit tricky. However, if he thought this little trick could stop him, he was thinking too highly of himself. It was not difficult for Lu Xiaotian to break through this gray net. However, this Ghost Cultivator was so unscrupulous. When he thought about how many living beings had died in this disaster, Lu Xiaotian could not help but be a lot fiercer.
A huge ice seal came down from the sky. It was the Desolate Frost Seal.
At the same time, the Earth Splitting Saber returned, shattering the gray net above his head. The gray balls floating in the air were destroyed by the golden light.
"Instant Magic Technique!" A trace of fear and disbelief flashed through Ge Changting's eyes. He had never heard of a Foundation Establishment cultivator being able to instantly cast such a powerful magic technique. Perhaps even a Jin Dan cultivator might not be able to do it.
His luck today was really bad. First, he encountered two Foundation Establishment cultivators and let them escape. Now, he encountered a young man who couldn't be judged by common sense. If the other party was bent on escaping, with the battle strength he currently displayed, it would be difficult to stop him. If he wanted to escape, he could have done so by now. However, it seemed that he didn't have the intention to escape. Instead, he wanted to get rid of him. So be it, he asked for it. Although this Great Ice Seal was incomparably powerful, it was still far from enough to get rid of him with just this magic technique.
Over a hundred skeletons simultaneously extended their bone spears and bone swords, wanting to block the huge ice seal that was pressing down like a small mountain.
