Zhang Ruochen put the Meteor Invisibility Clothes on his body, collected his aura, and passed through the Gate of Space, once again appearing in the cold, dark netherworld.
In this piece of earth, countless huge cracks appeared, and in some places, the rocks melted and turned into red lakes;in some places, tens of miles in every direction were sealed in ice.
An evenly matched Saint level battle had completely destroyed this piece of earth.
The battle, long ago, had already ended, but in the air, there were still residual ghost qi and Buddha qi aftermaths.
“A Saint level battle is truly terrifying, without hundreds of years of restoration, I’m afraid that the landscape here will not be able to recover.”Zhang Ruochen secretly sighed.
In the Kunlun Realm, the outbreak of a protracted Saint-level battle was enough to turn hundreds of miles in a radius into a forbidden land for a hundred years. Mortals and low-ranked martial artists who intruded into it would immediately be killed by the residual holy qi aftershocks.
It was unknown who, in the end, had achieved the final victory in this battle.
The surroundings were very silent, and one could only hear the sound of a wisp of shadowy wind rushing against the tombstones; the Beautiful Ghost King and the Mindfulness Buddhist Master, should have both retreated.
Zhang Ruochen inspired the invisibility power of the Meteor Invisibility Clothes, collected his body’s aura, and performed his Body Technique to once again arrive at the shores of the Blood Lake.
This place was the centre of the battle, and the residual aftermath of the battle was also the strongest.
Zhang Ruochen looked towards the lake and saw that, on the scarlet water, there was actually a blood-coloured moon imprint.
Slowly, he raised his head and looked upwards.
“It’s really strange, how could there be a blood-coloured moon in the entire netherworld, where there is no daylight or darkness?”Zhang Ruochen secretly said.
That round blood moon, which was far away from the ground, was also unknown how far away it was.
At least, Zhang Ruochen was certain that with his current cultivation, it was absolutely impossible for him to fly that high.
What was even stranger was that its light, however, merely fell on the surface of the lake, not reflecting anywhere else at all.
“Whew!”
While Zhang Ruochen was caught up in his thoughts, an icy cold Yin wind, from the surface of the lake, blew over.
On Zhang Ruochen’s body, a giggling sound was emitted, and on the surface of his skin, a thin layer of cold ice actually formed, completely wrapping his body.
The invisibility power of the Meteor Invisibility Suit was naturally broken as well.
At a glance, it was as if by the lake, a humanoid ice sculpture had suddenly appeared.
At some point, a female ghost appeared on the surface of the blood lake. She stood silently on the surface of the water, emitting a ghostly aura that was so strong that it condensed into a dark red cloud of ghostly fire.
The female ghost’s long hair, hanging straight down, swayed in the wind, and the blood robe on her body was torn and tattered, revealing the snow-white skin on her chest, abdomen, back, and arms.
That’s right.
She actually possessed the exact same skin as a human, and was not a vain undead.
Although she was a female ghost, she had an extraordinarily beautiful face, and the tattered blood robe only covered her hips, making the two slender jade .Legs, revealed outside, round and tight.
Such a sexy and beautiful, yet eerie and bizarre female ghost was stimulating Zhang Ruochen’s nerves without fail.
Only, Zhang Ruochen did not have any evil thoughts towards her, and only had one thought.
Escape.
The faster you escape, the better.
Because, she was that one beautiful ghost king.
Who would have thought that she was actually still in the vicinity of the Blood Lake?
“Giggle!”
A powerful fire attribute power surged out from Zhang Ruochen’s body, and his body, completely wrapped in flames, quickly melted the cold ice.
The Fire Spirit Treasure Body of the Five Elements Treasure Body came in handy at this moment.
When encountering a Ghost King level existence, one should never presume to fight her, using the power of the Holy Decree to escape was the only way to live.
However, Zhang Ruochen had only just cupped the Sacred Purpose in his hand, and before he had the chance to stimulate the Sacred Power within it, his wrist, however, had already been entangled by a black silk thread.
No, it wasn’t a black silk thread, but the hair of the beautiful Ghost King.
On the hair, it carried a chilly ghostly aura that was incomparably sharp, as if it was a blade, cutting through Zhang Ruochen’s skin, shrinking and embedding itself into the flesh and blood.
Blood just gushed out and was immediately sucked away by the hair strands.
Zhang Ruochen felt on his arm, a heart-breaking pain coming from his arm, the blood in his body was constantly being sucked away, and his wrist was as if it was about to break.
“How could this happen? Aren’t the undead only devouring souls, how can they also absorb blood?”
What Zhang Ruochen didn’t know was that ordinary undead were indeed unable to absorb blood. However, Ghost Kings were able to absorb minute amounts of blood and use it to condense their ghost bodies.
The higher the quality of the blood, the more useful it would be to the Ghost King.
In the next moment, the beautiful Ghost King had appeared in front of Zhang Ruochen, only a stone’s throw away from him, with a pair of cold, deep, and ferocious eyes gazing at Zhang Ruochen from a close distance.
“Imperial Sword.”
Zhang Ruochen clenched his teeth and began to mobilise his sword intent, summoning the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and performing the Sword Royal Art, dragging out an ebony-black sword light and chopping it towards the beautiful Ghost King.
“Wow!”
She merely gave birth to two fingers and clamped the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword in place, lightly waving her arm around. Afterwards, the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword flew out in the direction of the Blood Lake, crashing down on top of a small island in the lake with a roar.
“Your cultivation level, although it is a bit lower, the quality of your blood is excellent. In that case, your soul, should be quite delicious as well.”
The beautiful Ghost King stared at Zhang Ruochen as if he was commenting on a delicious dish, with no other emotions other than that.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen had been completely suppressed by the Beauty Ghost King’s power, and was unable to even mobilise his Sacred Qi and Spiritual Power, much less exert the power of Time and Space.
“Wow!”
The five snow-white fingers of the Beauty Ghost King became incomparably sharp as they pressed onto the top of Zhang Ruochen’s head and began to extract Zhang Ruochen’s martial soul.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen’s mind conjured up the image of that old Valve Master of Xun Sheng Sect Valve having his Saint Soul extracted by her, and an intense unwillingness arose in his heart.
“No, I absolutely can’t die, I absolutely can’t die here, I still have to go back to Ming Emperor City to pay homage to my mother, I still have to seek revenge on Chi Yao, I still have to search for the truth of what happened eight hundred years ago, how can I die here?”
“I’m not willing!”
Zhang Ruochen roared.
Right at this moment, the Seal of the Gods in the Qi Sea shook violently and flew out from the centre of his eyebrows, emitting ten thousand fathoms of divine light and striking the Beautiful Ghost King’s ghostly body.
“Boom!”
The bloody robe on the Beautiful Ghost King’s body turned into pieces in an instant, and a low, muffled sound came out of her mouth as she flew backwards.
In mid-air, her ghost body, which was in pieces, turned into a piece of black ghost energy.
Immediately afterwards, the Seal of the Gods immediately flew back to Zhang Ruochen’s Qi Sea, re-imprinting itself on the Qi Sea wall and becoming silent.
Zhang Ruochen felt as if he had walked through the gate of ghosts, half-kneeling on the ground, propping up the ground with one hand and panting heavily.
Before he could completely relax, the ghost qi flying in mid-air unexpectedly began to rapidly coalesce again, re-coalescing into the ghostly body of the Beautiful Ghost King.
The beautiful ghost king still had long flowing hair, but she was naked.Standing naked in mid-air.
What?
She actually wasn’t dead.
Although, the Beauty Ghost King had reassembled her ghost body, the aura on her body had dropped by a large margin, and she was simply unable to match the strength she had shown earlier.
“In your body, you actually have the guardian of the Seal of the Gods, I had underestimated you earlier.”
The Beautiful Ghost King’s ghost body appeared crystal clear, every inch of her skin was snow-white and flawless, and she was definitely a beautiful woman who had fallen in love with her country. If she appeared in the Kunlun Realm, she would definitely become the goddess that countless heavenly prides and men would pursue.
Only, Zhang Ruochen had already seen her terrifying just now, and even though he saw her jade body, he did not dare to have any evil thoughts at all.
Zhang Ruochen’s hand, squeezed the holy decree tightly and mobilised the holy power in the decree completely.
He didn’t immediately flee because, he was able to sense that the power of the beautiful Ghost King was very weak and wasn’t much stronger than him at all.
In his heart, a bold thought was born, ”If we are able to capture this one Ghost King, we will definitely be able to force some valuable things out of her mouth. For example, the place where the gods fell, the secret of the Pill to Raise the Dead, and even the possibility of asking where the Thousand Bone Empress went?”
The secrets that Impermanence didn’t know, the Ghost King most likely did.
This was a big gamble, and if she could be taken down, it would be an instant profit.
If he failed, Zhang Ruochen also had a great chance of escaping. After all, the beautiful Ghost King was not in her strongest state at the moment, but in her weakest state.
Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath and dispelled the negative emotions in his heart as he once again stared towards the Beautiful Ghost King and laughed, “If I’m not wrong, earlier, when you fought with the Deadly Zen Sect’s Mind Technique Buddhist Master, you were already seriously injured, weren’t you?”
The power of the Seal of the Gods was powerful, but, after all, Zhang Ruochen was not yet capable of actively mobilising that power. Thus, the Seal of the Gods could only passively defend, and the power it could exert was very limited, making it impossible to break apart the ghost body of a Ghost King.
There was only one possibility:
The beautiful Ghost King had been extremely injured before this.
The reason why she, wanted to devour Zhang Ruochen’s Saint Soul, was also because she wanted to recover from her injuries.
The blood-red moonlight shone on top of the Beauty Ghost King’s ghost body, causing the snow-white skin to be covered with a layer of demonic red, and every line of her entire body was so soft and beautiful that it made people feel suffocated.
The Beautiful Ghost King’s voice, very cold, said, “If he didn’t possess a robe with 10,000 Buddhist artefacts, which simultaneously erupted with powerful Buddhist power, how could he be a match for this King?”
Zhang Ruochen’s heart was secretly shocked, could it be that the Heart Art Buddhist Master was actually carrying the Ten Thousand Treasures Surplice into the netherworld?
This was by no means good news!
The cultivation level of the Mind Trick Buddhist Master was already quite perverse, and coupled with the incomparably powerful Ten Thousand Treasures Surplice, who else could fight him?
The Deadly Zen Sect must have a great purpose for entering the netherworld.
“This human kid, being able to obtain the guardianship of the Seal of the Gods, his own soul, must be very special, if I can devour his soul, it will definitely be able to heal my injuries.”
“If, I can refine the Seal of the Gods in his body, my ghost body, will surely become even stronger, enough to withstand the next Ghost Tribulation.”
When the Beautiful Ghost King saw Zhang Ruochen fall into deep thought, two green coloured ghost flames emerged from a pair of deep eye pupils, transforming into a residual shadow as she stretched out a pair of lotus-root-like snow-white arms and attacked Zhang Ruochen once again.
