Countless golden needles and lightning bolts howled down, covering almost half the canyon. In the blink of an eye, the entire canyon turned into a purgatory.
Yet amid this tide-like onslaught, a black banner stood unmoved, swaying like a lone boat in a river battered by massive waves.
The middle-aged demonic cultivator wore a cold expression. He let out a cold snort, and the black banner in his hand instantly extended without limit, transforming into a sheet of black cloth that spun and circled in place. It resembled a black lotus blooming in purgatory, or more like a black tornado.
As the massive black banner spun ceaselessly, the power of the black tornado grew stronger, gradually repelling all incoming attacks.
Watching the Dragon Beard Needles being swept away one after another, unable to approach the middle-aged demonic cultivator even slightly, Mo Fan’s face gradually grew solemn. He simply sacrificed another golden flying knife.
Under the infusion of spiritual power, the golden flying knife instantly expanded dozens of times, becoming a heavenly blade that stretched across the sky and earth. It slashed directly at the rising black tornado in the canyon!
At the same time, Bai Shuang beside him manifested eight Wind Thunder Light Wheels in one breath, continuously unleashing attacks around the black tornado.
However, an even stranger scene unfolded.
The black tornado formed by the black banner seemed at this moment to have become a true storm of wind. It showed no fear of the attacks.
Whether it was the golden flying knife spanning heaven and earth or the wind thunder spikes falling like a raging storm, all were swallowed by the black tornado without even a sound emerging.
This eerie scene caused a slight sinking feeling in the hearts of Mo Fan and the demon.
Mo Fan had thought this demonic cultivator was powerful, but he had still underestimated the opponent’s strength. He hadn’t expected him to be so difficult to deal with.
“His magical treasure is strange. It seems to form its own domain with a certain spatial power. Otherwise, it couldn’t easily swallow our attacks!”
Bai Shuang’s willow-like brows furrowed tightly. She spoke gravely, having discovered the key point.
Form its own domain?
Mo Fan’s face lit up with realisation upon hearing this. He immediately said gravely, “I understand.”
“This fellow is a human from the Soul Refining Sect. His black banner is called the Soul Devouring Banner, an extremely yin demonic treasure. It can extract souls and refine spirits. Who knows how many living beings’ souls it has absorbed? It must have formed a ghost domain inside. So no matter how we attack, as long as we can’t break that ghost domain, we can’t harm him at all!”
“Hahahaha… So what if you know?”
“Within the ghost domain, I am invincible. Unless a late Core Formation cultivator acts, how could you mere little demon generals break my Million Soul Banner!”
Laughter rang out from the black tornado, sounding extremely piercing, as if he had already determined that Mo Fan and the demon couldn’t break his soul banner.
“Invincible?”
Bai Shuang’s face showed a strange expression upon hearing this. She then sneered, “If you were truly invincible, you wouldn’t have been gravely injured by someone!”
“To heal, you don’t hesitate to use a treasure like Dragon Blood Flesh Lingzhi as bait. This shows your vitality is greatly damaged, and you are not truly invincible.
The reason we can’t break your broken soul banner is simply that our attack power hasn’t reached its limit yet!
Since that’s the case, I should know how to deal with you!”
With that, Bai Shuang turned to Mo Fan and said gravely, “Stinky little brother, I remember you have a few golden cores, right?”
“You mean?”
Mo Fan instantly understood something upon hearing this.
“In a moment, I’ll use my divine ability to trap that fellow, then you sacrifice the golden cores. We’ll directly detonate those golden cores!
I want to see if his broken soul banner can withstand it!”
Bai Shuang sneered, a trace of cold killing intent flashing in her eyes.
“You are too naive. Do you really think I am meat on the chopping board, ready for you to slaughter at will?”
From the black tornado, the demonic cultivator laughed loudly. Then Mo/m Fan heard waves of ghostly wails and wolf howls emanating from the black tornado.
“Go! Tear these demon cultivators to shreds!”
As the demonic cultivator’s cold laughter rang out, masses of ghost mist flew out from the black tornado one after another, transforming into ferocious ghosts with dishevelled hair. They pounced towards Mo Fan and the demons.
“Court death!”
Bai Shuang’s eyes instantly turned extremely cold upon seeing this. She casually pointed at the ferocious ghosts. The eight Wind Thunder Light Wheels in the sky immediately burst with dazzling light. Bolts of thunder struck down, instantly turning some weaker ferocious ghosts to ashes.
Boom boom boom…
The black tornado surged violently, directly assaulting Bai Shuang. She had no choice but to abandon her attacks on the ferocious ghosts and free her hands to deal with the black tornado’s assault.
Without the restraint of thunder, endless ferocious ghosts covered the sky and earth, soon engulfing Mo Fan and the demons.
“Ah…!!”
Soon, demon cultivators screamed. In an instant, they were sucked dry by the ferocious ghosts, turning into desiccated corpses.
At this moment, Mo Fan was also in danger, surrounded by countless ferocious ghosts. However, there was no trace of fear on his face. Instead, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly into an arc.
Divine ability: Adding insult to injury!
Buzz…
Golden light bloomed from Mo Fan’s brow. Tiger patterns emerged, and a white tiger phantom appeared behind him.
The moment the white tiger phantom appeared, the ferocious ghosts preparing to pounce on Mo Fan all showed expressions of terror. They actually turned and fled!
It was as if, in this instant, these ferocious ghosts had encountered their natural predator.
“Roar…!”
At this point, the white tiger phantom opened its mouth and let out a silent roar. Living beings could not hear it at all.
But in Mo Fan’s ears, it was like rolling thunder, continuous and unending!
Wherever the tiger’s roar reached, fleeing ferocious ghosts exploded in mid-air one after another!
However, after the tiger’s roar, the white tiger phantom gradually faded. Yet ferocious ghosts continued to fly out endlessly from the black tornado, rushing forward to kill Mo Fan without regard for their lives.
“Go. It’s your time to shine!”
Mo Fan murmured to himself. Immediately, a neat chorus of responses came from the tiger patterns on his brow: “Yes, master!”
Soon, masses of ghost mist flew out from the tiger patterns, transforming into vengeful ghosts that directly pounced on the ferocious ghosts filling the sky.
“Hahahaha… Finally, it’s Grandpa Turtle’s turn to perform!”
“A bunch of ordinary ferocious ghosts. Grandpa Turtle is going to eat until he’s stuffed this time!”
Among the vengeful ghosts, a piercing voice rang out, making Mo Fan’s face twitch. He raised a hand to his forehead and said depressedly, “Damn it, how did I release this treasure too!”
“Wahahaha… There are so many beauties among these ferocious ghosts!”
“Mine, all mine!!”
“Beauties, don’t run. Let Grandpa Turtle battle you for three hundred rounds!”
“Wow, hahahaha… Grandpa Turtle is so happy…”
With the appearance of the vengeful ghosts, the previously precarious situation instantly reversed.
Mo Fan discovered that although there were many ferocious ghosts, most only had the instinct to devour souls and no magical techniques at all.
In contrast, the vengeful ghosts under his command were originally transformed from cultivators. Many were comparable to demon king realm. Even as souls, they still possessed extraordinary methods and knew how to use ghost qi to slay ferocious ghosts.
Thus, a scene of tigers entering a flock of sheep unfolded. A mere few hundred vengeful ghosts slaughtered wildly among hundreds of thousands of ferocious ghosts, like ghost gods descending to the world!
“Damn it!”
“The art of controlling ghosts. You demon actually know the art of controlling ghosts!!”
“I want you dead!”
A furious shout rang out from the black tornado.
Soon, several more figures flew out from within.
A total of ten figures, all ferocious ghosts.
But these ferocious ghosts were far beyond the previous ones. Each was shrouded in bloody light, emanating an aura no less than that of demon king realm ghost creatures!
