Chapter 195 Ghost King
Zhang Chaozong used the technique of glittering shadows and firmly entangled the ghost. Each person and one ghost fought fiercely. Because Zhang Chaozong's green fire made the ghosts afraid, he gained an absolute advantage for a while and beat the ghosts and retreated one after another.
However, it is obviously not easy to kill it. The ghost-shaped magical powers emerge one after another, which made Zhang Chaozong deeply afraid and dared not do his best.
Xue Mei and Ge Xiu were in bad condition. Although they joined forces to deal with a ghost, they were in great danger and were constantly scared by the fierce means used by the ghost.
Zhang Chaozong saw that Xue Mei and Ge Xiu were not in good condition, and his offensive became even more fierce. He wanted to solve the ghost in front of him first, and then free up his hands to help Xue Mei and Ge Xiu. But at this moment, the ghost who attacked Xue Mei and Ge Xiu suddenly shouted fiercely.
"Chi." The nails more than one foot long on its ghost claws suddenly broke out of the air.
Five nails, like five sharp swords, swirling with five sharp cold lights, drilling towards several vital points on Ge Xiu's body.
Ge Xiu's face changed drastically, and he threw out a bronze mirror with a spotted historic site. A blue cloud rose from the bronze mirror and rolled towards the five cold lights.
But the five cold lights seemed to be unblocked, tearing a hole in Bixia at once. The speed did not slow down, but instead became a little faster.
Ge Xiu gritted his teeth and pointed at the bronze mirror. The bronze mirror rose in the wind and turned into a round shield, trying to block the cold light.
"Bang." A sound of glass breaking sounded, five nails paused for a moment, and then passed through the bronze mirror.
The bronze mirror with the ancient monuments suddenly became shattered. Ge Xiu spit out a mouthful of blood and his face changed. Although there were some shields and other body-protecting magic weapons beside him, it was OK to deal with things like Ghost Fog and Ghost Head. It was impossible to block five sharp nails.
"Excuse me." In the critical moment, Ge Xiu shouted loudly and threw out the emerald green sickle in his hand.
At this time, only this sickle could block the opponent's attack. But what made Ge Xiu desperate was that as soon as the sickle came out, the five nails seemed to have eyes. They swiftly bypassed this powerful magic weapon and still flew towards him like lightning.
Seeing that Ge Xiu was in crisis, Xue Mei opened her mouth and spewed out a firebird without saying a word. The firebird flapped its edges and flapped its wings, and two blazing flames rolled towards five cold lights like a prairie fire.
Two of the five nails suddenly accelerated, spinning rapidly like a yin and yang fish, forming a vortex. As soon as the flames pounced on the vortex, they immediately separated around them. The remaining three nails passed through the center of the vortex and pierced through Ge Xiu's body in the blink of an eye.
"Ah--" Ge Xiu screamed and fell to the ground straight.
Seeing Ge Xiu's death, Xue Mei was shocked and took out a spirit insect bag with her hand. With a buzzing sound, countless flying ants swarmed out of the spirit insect bag, making it impossible for him to surround him.
Zhang Chaozong also heard Ge Xiu's scream. At this time, it was not a good idea to give up the ghost in front of him to rescue Xue Mei. The ghost in front of him was already seriously injured and was completely suppressed. As long as he worked harder, he could kill him on the spot. But if he didn't take this opportunity to completely kill him, it would be very difficult to wait until he recovered and join forces with another ghost.
Zhang Chaozong hoped that Xue Mei could hold on for a while and buy him some time.
"Ga——" The ghost who fought with Zhang Chaozong saw that his opponent was a little distracted, and immediately launched a counterattack.
The ghost claws with cold light popped out like a spring, grabbing towards Zhang Chaozong's throat. Zhang Chaozong shouted coldly, and the creation of heaven and earth appeared out of thin air, clenched into a fist, and smashed it hard at the ghost claw.
"Bang." With a loud bang, several ancient and mysterious inscriptions flashed across the hands of the creation of heaven and earth, and pounced on the ghost claws.
The ghost claws immediately melted away part of them, and the ghost shadow hurriedly took back the ghost claws.
"Chi." Zhang Chaozong seized the opportunity and waved the Qinghuo Glazed Sword.
The sky-blue fire line suddenly shone and instantly passed through the ghost. The ghost was split in half, and a shrill scream came out from his mouth. After the fire line passed, the dark light flashed at the edge of the ghost's body cut into two halves, and it was reunited, as if it had never been injured. However, if you observe carefully, you will find that the ghost has become much weaker.
"Gagahahaha..." The injured ghost made a rapid scream, as if calling for another ghost.
Another ghost was opening his mouth to swallow the flying ants one by one. When he heard the call, he actually gave up Xue Mei and rushed towards Zhang Chaozong. While flying quickly, he threw out five sharp nails from the other ghost claws.
"Swoosh swosh swosh swosh swosh swosh-" Five cold lights shot out, attacking Zhang Chaozong's five key parts.
Zhang Chaozong's thoughts moved and disappeared out of thin air. When he appeared again, he was already more than ten feet away. Five sharp cold lights were all vain.
Xue Mei's crisis was temporarily resolved, and she was next to Zhang Chaozong in a flash. She was lucky. If the five nails attacked Ge Xiu were attacking her, I'm afraid that Ge Xiu would not be Ge Xiu, but her who died now.
The two ghosts gathered together and screamed several times. Suddenly, one of the more powerful ghosts opened its mouth and swallowed the other ghost. Zhang Chaozong and Xue Mei were stunned and felt a chill on their backs.
The body of the ghost that devoured his companion has undergone a tremendous change. Originally, it was just a shadow, and it seemed to dissipate at any time. But now it is different. At this time, the ghost's body has become substance, and the surface of the skin is still faintly shining with dark light.
Its body is covered with complex patterns, like talismans, looking full of strangeness. On its clear head, the most eye-catching thing is a one-horn, like a one-horn on a rhino's head, hideous and terrifying. Then it is its eyes, with green phosphorus fire flashing in its eyes. When it is looked at by these eyes, it feels cold and cold.
"Ghost King." Zhang Chaozong's body was shocked.
If the ghost shadow's strength had not reached the level of the Ghost King just now, then the evil thing that the two ghost shadows combined at this moment would undoubtedly be the Ghost King. Feeling the soaring momentum of the Ghost King, Zhang Chaozong's face was as deep as water.
The Ghost King is not comparable to that of ordinary ghosts. Only cultivators whose soul strength reaches the Nascent Soul level can become a Ghost King-level existence for various reasons. Although the Ghost King's strength is not as good as that of a Nascent Soul cultivator, it is not much worse. Zhang Chaozong is not sure that he can deal with such a fierce thing.
"You...you, die!" The Ghost King actually spoke, his voice a little awkward, with a bone-broken chill.
Xue Mei swallowed hard and shrank her body behind Zhang Chaozong.
"Don't be afraid, this thing has just condensed and formed, so it should not have much magical power. If you and I work together, we will definitely be able to kill it." Zhang Chaozong said confidently when he saw Xue Mei showing fear.
In fact, Zhang Chaozong was not very confident, but he knew that Xue Mei regarded him as a supporter. If he was not confident enough, Xue Mei would be even less confident. When a monk faced the enemy, seven points depended on strength and three points depended on luck and confidence. With strong confidence, he could gain a few more points of chance of winning out of thin air. Of course, this is when the gap in strength is not big. If the gap in strength is too big, it would be useless to have great confidence.
If the Ghost King in front of him was a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, then Zhang Chaozong would definitely turn around and run away without saying a word. But the other party was the Ghost King, and he was the Ghost King who had just condensed and formed. In this case, there was no hope of fighting.
After being comforted by Zhang Chaozong, Xue Mei was not as afraid as before and developed a bit of fighting spirit.
"You die." The Ghost King said the same thing again, but this time it was much smoother than the first time.
"Hu——" As soon as the Ghost King finished speaking, two balls of flames spewed out of his eyes.
These two balls of flames are not only unable to feel the temperature from above, but on the contrary, they also make people feel extremely cold.
Xue Mei threw out an ice plate without waiting for the flame to approach. As the ice plate turned, white air swirled around and pounced on the flame, trying to extinguish the Ghost King Bi's oily phosphorus fire. However, Xue Mei obviously underestimated the power of the phosphorus fire.
With a "squeezing" sound, the white air dissipated before it even approached the phosphorus fire. Even the ice plate itself was shattered after being burned by the phosphorus fire.
After the phosphorus fire paused slightly, the fire increased instead of decreasing, and rolled towards Zhang Chaozong and Xue Mei. Xue Meiyu shook her hand and a fan appeared in her palm.
"Roar—" The round fan flashed, and a wind dragon accompanied by clouds shook its agile body, swallowing the phosphorus fire into its belly in one mouthful.
Xue Mei was overjoyed when she saw Fenglong competing for me, but before she could be happy, her face suddenly changed. It turned out that Fenglong not only failed to digest the phosphorus fire, but instead burned a wound on the abdomen by the flames. The phosphorus fire instantly spread from the wound to Fenglong's whole body. Whether it was wind or clouds, they were all burned completely by the flames.
Seeing this, Zhang Chaozong knew that he would not be able to do anything. He flipped his hand and threw out a fire-repelling bead. The fire-repelling bead has the effect of specifically restraining flames. Zhang Chaozong hopes to use this treasure to restrain phosphorus fire.
A slight light emitted from the fire-proof bead, covering the phosphorus fire. Although this light is not conspicuous, it seems to have a certain effect on the phosphorus fire, which actually makes the aggressive phosphorus fire weaker.
Seeing this, the Ghost King blew a breath at the phosphorus fire. A green bead flew out and fell into the phosphorus fire. As soon as the bead appeared, the phosphorus fire fire surged sharply, and the light of the fire-piercing bead was instantly washed away. Even the fire-piercing bead itself wailed and fell to the ground from the air.
"Gagahaha..." The Ghost King let out a proud and sneering laugh.
