Chapter 287: The Cunning Ghost Emperor, Slaying the Holy Ancestor
Chen An was secretly delighted when he realized that the Yin Bone Ghost King was catching up with him, and that there were only two seventh-level primary Ghost Kings left in the army behind him.
This guy was really fooled.
Seeing this, Chen An and others quickly stopped pretending to retreat and returned to their designated positions.
Seeing that the time had come, Miao Huang and others no longer hid, but appeared at the right time and surrounded the three people of Yin Gu Gui Huang.
"Yin Bone Ghost Emperor, your doomsday has come!" Miao Huang said in a cold voice with a long whip in his hand and a sharp gaze.
"You idiot!"
The Yin Bone Ghost Emperor had a ferocious look on his face, and the bone staff in his hand emitted a faint light. The surrounding sea water seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, turning into countless sharp blades, shooting towards Miao Huang and others.
Seeing this, Lu Lin used his secret technique and countless vines grew out of the sea water and entangled the two Ghost Kings who were in the early stages of fusion.
Yanjia activated the Black Turtle's true form, and its huge body was like a moving fortress, resisting the fierce attack of the Yin Bone Ghost King.
The battle became more and more intense. Chen An cooperated closely with Miao Huang and others and gradually gained the upper hand. Although the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor was strong, he began to show signs of weakness under the joint efforts of everyone.
Trapped in danger, the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor was not anxious, but smiled evilly, as if everything was within his expectations: "Fools, do you really think that I will not be prepared for such tricks?"
He sneered, and just as he finished speaking, a group of Ghost Kings suddenly appeared in the distance behind him. They were the people who had followed the Yin Bone Ghost King away before, but now they were coming back.
The Yin Bone Ghost King taunted, "Do you really think you can succeed in your sneak attack? I have already guessed every step of yours."
Miao Huang and others were all shocked. They didn't expect that the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor was already prepared. He was so cunning and cautious that he even ignored the Silver Horn Continent for his own safety.
Although they have fewer people than the other side, the three late-stage fusion cultivators may be able to defeat them if they join forces.
The only thing is that the opponent has two fighters in the late stage of fusion, which is a bit tricky.
Miao Huang made a quick judgment: "Fellow Daoist Xuanjia, you try to hold back the Yin Bone Ghost King first, while Lu Lin will deal with the other Ghost King in the late stage of fusion first, try to kill him, and then encircle and suppress the Yin Bone!"
She glanced at Chen An and said, "As for Chen An, come with me to kill the other Ghost Kings first, and then defeat those two one by one."
Time was running out, and Chen An thought this plan was feasible, so he didn't say much.
The battle broke out instantly, Xuanjia fought against the Yin Bone Ghost King, while Lulin delayed another Ghost King in the late stage of fusion. But it was obvious that neither of them was a good match, and Xuanjia and Lulin found it a little difficult to fight.
On the other side, the battle between Chen An and Miao Huang was unusually easy.
Needless to say, Miao Huang was in the late stage of fusion, and could deal with the mid to late stage of seventh stage Ghost Emperor. Not to mention one at a time, but it wouldn't take too long for him to kill one.
At this moment, Chen An was holding the Tu Ji Shan in his hand. This magic weapon was extremely powerful and could almost kill a weaker Ghost King with one blow.
Relying on his own late stage fusion cultivation and the assistance of magic weapons, he quickly killed most of the Ghost Kings in the early and middle stages of fusion. His efficiency was even higher than that of Miao Huang.
While fighting, Miao Huang kept an eye on the situation around him. He couldn't help but show surprise when he saw Chen An clearing out the Ming cultivators so efficiently.
Originally, she only wanted Chen An to assist from the side, but Chen An's performance exceeded her expectations. Miao Huang was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but look at Chen An again.
Miao Huang thought to himself: "This kid actually has such strength!"
Chen An waved the Tujishan in his hand while observing the changes on the battlefield.
He noticed that Lu Lin's situation didn't seem good, so he reminded Miao Huang loudly: "Fellow Daoist Miao Huang, Fellow Daoist Lu Lin's situation doesn't seem good. Leave this to me, go and help him!"
Hearing Chen An's words, Miao Huang also realized that something was wrong. He immediately put away his surprise and told Chen An, "Then be careful. I leave this to you!"
After saying that, Miao Huang flashed and rushed towards where Lu Lin was.
Chen An nodded and continued to clean up the remaining Ghost Kings.
Lu Lin was fighting fiercely with the Ghost King in the late stage of fusion. The opponent's attacks became more and more fierce, and Lu Lin gradually felt that he was unable to cope with it.
At this moment, Miao Huang arrived in time, and the two of them worked together to temporarily stabilize the situation.
"Fellow Daoist Lulin, how are you?" Miao Huang asked with concern.
Lu Lin wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth and panted, "It's okay, but those few blows just now were really dangerous. Thanks to you for coming, otherwise I might really lose."
Miao Huang said: "It's good that you're alright, let's work together to get rid of this guy first!"
Chen An was dealing with the Ghost King in front of him alone. Although the pressure was great, he was still able to firmly control the situation with the power of Tuji Mountain.
As time went by, there were fewer and fewer Ghost Kings in front of him. Seeing that the situation was not good, several of them planned to escape.
But in front of Chen An's escape speed, none of them escaped. They all turned into inner elixirs and entered Chen An's storage bag.
After dealing with his opponent, Chen An looked at the other two fighting locations.
Yin Gu suddenly said: "Mobao, can you please let me help you? As long as you agree to my condition."
The Demon Treasure Ghost King sneered: "No need, I can handle it myself!"
As time went by, Miao Huang and the Mu Clan cultivators gradually fell into a disadvantage. The offensive of the opposing Ghost Emperor became more and more fierce, and they could only hold on with great difficulty.
The Magic Emperor of Fantasy Sound holds a guzheng in his hand. Every time he plucks a string, he can produce different notes. These notes turn into sharp sound waves, spreading around, cutting through the void and the Demonic Ghost Emperor.
However, the Mysterious Ice Mirror in the Demonic Ghost Emperor's hand was like an indestructible shield. No matter how the Magical Sound Emperor launched musical attacks, they were bounced back by the mirror and frozen.
This forced Miao Huang to focus on defense and gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Countless green vines sprang out in front of Lu Lin in an attempt to restrain the magic treasure. However, facing the undead ghosts summoned by a soul flag of the Demon Treasure Ghost Emperor, Lu Lin's attack seemed somewhat powerless.
These ghost warriors not only have amazing attack power, but also seem to be immortal. Although the green vines of the green forest can temporarily entangle them, they will quickly break free.
The Green Forest could only keep changing their tactics and barely hold on.
Chen An couldn't help but be surprised. This Demonic Ghost King was so powerful that he was even above the Yin Bone. It seemed that he was not an ordinary person.
"No, we will lose if we go on like this!" Miao Huang was extremely anxious. He couldn't help but look in the direction of Chen An, only to find that the battle on Chen An's side had ended and was slowly coming towards them.
"Xuan Jia, hold on for a while. I will deal with the Ghost King here first, and then I will come to support you!"
Chen An took the opportunity to send a message that Xuanjia alone seemed to be no match for the Yin Bone Ghost King, but with his strong defense, he could continue to delay the situation.
Upon hearing this, Xuanjia did not respond, but continued to fight with the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor.
Immediately, Chen An said no more. The Tu Ji Mountain in his hand shone brightly and his aura rose steadily.
He just flashed and in an instant he arrived at the center of the battlefield. He gently waved the Tu Ji Mountain in his hand, and a towering mountain appeared out of thin air and smashed towards the Demon Treasure Ghost King.
Upon seeing this, the Demonic Ghost King hurriedly summoned the Mysterious Ice Mirror, hoping to use the power of the mirror to bounce the Tuji Mountain back.
However, Chen An's Tuji Mountain was extremely heavy, and could only rebound with relatively soft means, but he was powerless against Tuji Mountain. With a loud "boom", the Xuanbing Shenjian trembled a few times and almost flew out of his hand.
Immediately afterwards, Chen An summoned the soul-binding chains. The chains were like living things, shuttling across the battlefield and locking up the ghosts one by one, making them unable to move.
The ghosts howled miserably, but no matter how they struggled they could not break free from the soul-binding chains.
Upon seeing this, the Ghost King gently clapped the Purple Thunder Drum in his hand. Suddenly, a deafening thunder sounded, and the offensive of Chen An and others was instantly blocked.
But Chen An reacted quickly, and the soul-binding chain suddenly accelerated, directly penetrating the thundering barrier and wrapping around the Ghost King's wrist.
"Humph!"
The Ghost King snorted coldly, turned the Mysterious Ice Mirror in his hand, and a cold light shot out, freezing the chains instantly.
But Chen An had already anticipated this move, and the Wuji Shazhu appeared in his hand. The bead emitted bursts of black mist, which actually dissolved the power of ice into nothingness.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the Nine Nether Soul Banner behind the Ghost Emperor suddenly fluttered, and nine ghosts walked out of it, each with a form no different from a real person, and they pounced towards Chen An and others.
These ghosts were extremely fast and arrived in front of Chen An almost in an instant.
Chen An waved the soul-binding chains to wrap around them one by one, but the power of the ghost warriors was unexpectedly strong, and the chains were actually pulled straight.
At this time, Huanyin Miaohuang and Lulin also joined the battle. Together they barely managed to hold off the nine immortal monsters.
The Ghost King took the opportunity to take out the Taiyin True Water Gourd, and countless Taiyin True Waters poured down like a rainstorm, trying to drown Chen An and others.
Seeing this, Chen An activated the five-colored divine light, which turned into a curtain of light to block the powerful water flow.
However, Huanyin Miaohuang and Lulin were locked in a tough battle. The Taiyin True Water was too pure and powerful for them, and they would be corroded by it if they were not careful.
Seeing that Chen An had the upper hand, the Ghost King became angry and roared, and the space around him suddenly twisted to form a closed area.
Chen An felt that a powerful force was constantly oppressing him, as if it was going to squeeze him into a pulp.
"This is the realm!"
At this moment, Chen An took a deep breath, and the Wuji Shazhu in his hand suddenly burst out with unprecedented light. Black air currents intertwined in the air to form a huge net, covering the entire Nine Revolutions Purgatory.
The Ghost King was horrified. He didn't expect that the other party actually had such a trump card.
"Break it for me!"
Chen An roared, and the magic power in his body leaked out crazily. The Soul Binding Chains and the Wuji Evil Pearl exerted their power at the same time, plus the Tuji Mountain, and the barrier of the Nine Revolutions Purgatory was torn apart in an instant. At the same time, the five-colored divine light penetrated the body of the Mobao Ghost Emperor.
When he returned to Chen An again, he had brought back a returning inner elixir. At this point, he had completely killed the Demonic Ghost King!
With the death of the Demonic Treasure Ghost Emperor, the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor was horrified and felt a sense of grief for the loss of another.
At this time, Liefeng, who had gone to arrange for the demon clan to launch a feint attack on the Silver Horn Continent, had also returned.
Now, Chen An, Miao Huang, Lu Lin and Lie Feng who had just arrived joined forces to encircle and suppress the Yin Bone Ghost King, and their chances of winning increased greatly.
However, when the Yin Bone Ghost King saw that the situation was not good, he used a secret method to escape.
Chen An sneered, spread his flowing wings and followed closely behind, his speed was so fast that it was astonishing.
The Yin Bone Ghost King was caught up in the blink of an eye. He was extremely angry and shouted: "What a despicable person! You are courting death!"
He took out an ancient jade token from his arms, bit his fingertips, and dripped his own blood onto the token.
As the blood seeped in, the jade token emitted a strange light. The Yin Bone Ghost Emperor's face turned pale, and it was obvious that this action had caused him great harm.
"Saint Ancestor Silent, please help me kill these despicable monks!" roared the Yin Bone Ghost Emperor, his voice filled with despair and anger.
As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying power wave suddenly emerged between heaven and earth, and a huge shadow slowly appeared in the void. It was a man in a black robe, with eyes like lightning and a heart-pounding aura all over his body.
"How dare an ant be so bold!"
The voice of the Saint Ancestor of Silence was like the roar of thunder, shaking the surrounding void.
He slowly raised his palm, and an invisible pressure enveloped Chen An and others, making it almost impossible to breathe.
Huanyin Miaohuang, Lulin and Liefeng were the first to be hit. They felt an irresistible force coming towards them. Their bodies flew backwards involuntarily and fell heavily to the ground.
Chen An's face was stern. Facing the soul of the Saint of Annihilation, he could no longer hide his strength. Only by giving it his all would he have a chance of survival.
He took a deep breath, and circulated the internal skills, activating the Law of Heaven and Earth and the Golden Body at the same time.
At the same time, the first six levels of the Eight Gates Divine Veins Technique were fully activated, and Chen An's body suddenly grew to a height of two or three thousand feet. When he clenched his hands lightly, there was a force that could cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split.
Afterwards, Tuji Mountain flew towards the soul of the Holy Ancestor of Extinction. Although this mountain was small, it was as heavy as Mount Tai.
At the same time, under Chen An's control, the soul-binding chains turned into spirit snakes, shuttling through the void. The Infinite Evil Pearl also emitted a black light, heading straight for the soul of the Saint Ancestor of Extinction.
The soul of the Holy Ancestor of Silent Destruction didn't seem to care about Chen An's attack.
As he waved his hand, a ball of dark mist condensed into a shield, blocking Tu Jishan's attack.
However, when the Soul-Binding Chains and the Infinite Evil Pearls attacked, the soul of the Saint Ancestor of Extinction was obviously caught off guard.
Chen An's attack became more and more fierce. The soul-binding chains and the infinite evil beads intertwined in the air, forming an airtight cage, which firmly locked the soul of the Saint Ancestor of Extinction.
After several consecutive fierce attacks, the soul of the Holy Ancestor of Extinction finally showed some signs of uneasiness.
"Break it for me!"
Chen An roared angrily upon seeing this, and the power of the Soul Binding Chains and the Infinite Evil Pearl reached its peak. The shield of the Holy Ancestor's soul was finally broken, and under the pressure of the Tuji Mountain, his body slowly collapsed.
As the soul of the Holy Ancestor of Extinction dissipated, the entire battlefield was shaken.
Miao Huang and others witnessed all this and were shocked.
Chen An's strength was far beyond their imagination. This powerful fighting ability made them admire and awed him. A complex emotion flashed in Miao Huang's eyes. She did not expect that Chen An could kill the soul of the Saint of Extinction so easily.
Seeing that the soul of Saint Ancestor Silent was completely killed by Chen An, the Ghost King Yin Bone was horrified and shouted: "Impossible!"
He never thought that he would be defeated by a seemingly insignificant human monk.
Chen An didn't say much. He sacrificed Tu Ji Mountain and directly killed the Yin Bone Ghost King who had been seriously injured by summoning the Holy Ancestor's soul.
The screams of the Yin Bone Ghost King echoed in the void, and finally turned into dead silence.
