Chapter 390: Chapter 390
At the foot of the mountain.
Zhang Xiaohao frowned in thought.
Since the opponent had already made a move, he surmised that today’s incident was merely an appetizer, and the follow-up would unlikely be this simple.
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohao’s brow furrowed more intensely.
"Could it be that the Extinction Yin Evil Formation outside the Cheng Family villa was also laid out by him?" Zhang Xiaohao mused.
This possibility should be quite high.
Having chosen to take action, he would do the same and eradicate the roots.
"Bao Butong, oh Bao Butong, you think you’re the only one who can lay out an evil formation? I forgot to tell you, in this regard, I am a grandmaster!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a cold laugh.
With a chilling gleam in his eyes and a light step, he performed the Twelve Heavenly Steps, transforming into a wraithlike glow, rushing towards the Cheng Family villa.
Zhang Xiaohao stopped.
His Soul Power swept arrogantly, and within two miles, nothing could escape his sight.
"A battle between a zombie and a century-old fierce ghost? This does make quite a spectacle. Since I’ve stumbled upon it, I might as well take a look," Zhang Xiaohao muttered to himself.
Concealing his aura, he dashed towards the southeast.
Zhang Xiaohao stopped atop a large tree thick enough to be embraced by two people, with his arms folded and a detached expression, looking toward the battlefield before him.
In the midst of the battlefield.
There was a green-eyed zombie, whose viciously sharp palm raised to strike at the century-old fierce ghost.
The century-old fierce ghost was far from submissive, covered in bloody wounds all over.
Especially, its two ghastly fangs, as long as an adult’s little finger, hair disheveled and wearing a white robe, claws waving, carrying a terrifying yin wind, it slammed into the green-eyed zombie.
The savage powers collided, resulting in a formidable shockwave.
Under the impact of this shockwave, the trees around were all destroyed.
The green-eyed zombie and the century-old fierce ghost, both retreated several steps backward at the same time.
"You dead zombie, hand over the Shariputra! This King shall spare you, otherwise, tonight will be your end!" the century-old fierce ghost said with a murderous tone.
"Roar!" the green-eyed zombie roared.
"You old coot, I’ve fought with you for twenty years in the tomb of a Cycle Palace Realm Great Power; did you really think I’d be afraid of you?" the green-eyed zombie sneered.
"You dead zombie! It seems you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin tonight, huh? If you wish for death, this King shall fulfill that wish!" the century-old fierce ghost shouted coldly.
Its figure flashed, akin to the teleportation of Han Xin, the robe beneath floating in the air, and in a blink, it was already in front of the green-eyed zombie.
"Yin Wind Sky-breaking Claw!" the Ghost King bellowed.
The two ghostly claws viciously reached forward, and the terrible yin wind blasted out from the Ghost King’s body.
A vast sweep, countless ghostly claws domineeringly clutched at the green-eyed zombie’s head.
"Hmph! The same old trick again, old coot, can’t you come up with something new? Break for me!" the green-eyed zombie growled disdainfully.
Without employing any martial skills, a green light flashed on its body.
Its fists, as large as sandbags, swung in a crude and brutal assault.
A series of attacks resounded from the clash of the two.
"Cycle Palace Realm Great Power’s tomb? Shariputra? Could these two ghostly creatures have escaped from the tomb of a Cycle Palace Realm Great Power, and also swept away the relics left by a deceased high monk?" Zhang Xiaohao pondered to himself.
"No, that’s not right! If these are relics from a high monk in the Buddhist sect, containing the golden light of Buddha, how can these two Control Realm ghosts possibly take them down? I fear they wouldn’t even be able to get close before they were cleansed and purified by the strong Buddhist light contained within the relics. Is there some secret hidden within?" Zhang Xiaohao thought to himself, frowning.
The more he thought about it, the more his thoughts were in disarray.
Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaohao tried not to think too much about it.
"Let these two ghosts kill each other, and later, I can reap the benefits like a fisherman," Zhang Xiaohao said.
The green-eyed zombie and the century-old fierce ghost clashed violently against each other.
Under the fierce attack of the other party, their bodies were like kites with their strings cut, flying backward simultaneously.
"Haha! You old immortal, you’re no match for me! Even before the iron fist of this old ancestor, still you have to kneel and submit!" The green-eyed zombie laughed heartily as he leaped up from the ground with a slap of his hand.
"Hmph! You dead zombie, you are not much better! Didn’t you also get a piece of flesh torn off by me?" the Ghost King sneered.
"Really? This old ancestor has swallowed the demonized relics and will only grow stronger with battle, but you! Once you exhaust the ghostly energy in your body, that will be the time of your death!" said the green-eyed zombie.
"Hmph! Not to belittle you, but with your minor cultivation, you think you can refine a relic from a Void Transformation Realm Buddhist master? Even if it cost you your life’s blood, you couldn’t manage it!" the Ghost King shot back.
"Hmph! Even if I can’t refine it, this old ancestor will still make you envious! Just give me some time, and with this demonized relic, this old ancestor will break through to the Void Transformation Realm! By then, with the world so vast, no one will be able to trap this old ancestor!" proclaimed the green-eyed zombie arrogantly.
"Cackle... Do you think I’m just thin air? Cut the crap, dead zombie! Hand over the demonized relics, and I’ll give you a quick death!" the Ghost King said coldly.
"Bollocks! Go to hell, you old immortal!" roared the green-eyed zombie.
He pushed off the ground with his feet and charged forward rapidly.
You punched out with his right fist, carrying a powerful force towards the century-old fierce ghost’s head.
"Yin Wind Sky-breaking Claw!" the century-old fierce ghost roared lowly.
Swinging his claws, he unleashed a terrifying power and struck toward the green-eyed zombie.
Zhang Xiaohao’s brows furrowed as he considered if this were the case with the demonized relics, it would indeed make sense.
As for the Ghost King and the green-eyed zombie, they were the same as martial artists. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵
They absorbed nature’s spiritual energy, which was transformed through Cultivation Techniques, forming ghostly energy and the like, with similar realms.
From low to high, these were:
Body Tempering Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm, Hundred Veins Realm, Control Realm, Void Transformation Realm, Cycle Palace Realm, and so on!!
It’s said that the Cycle Palace Realm is not the end, and there are several other major realms beyond it.
"Old immortal, come meet your death!"
Both the green-eyed zombie and the century-old fierce ghost roared simultaneously, snapping a tree trunk as thick as an adult, and with a wave of their arms, they hurled it towards Zhang Xiaohao’s direction.
Two powerful sounds of breaking air followed, as two trees as thick as adults charged menacingly towards Zhang Xiaohao.
"Child’s play, break for me!" Zhang Xiaohao scoffed disdainfully.
He tapped his foot and quickly moved forward to intercept.
He punched out with both fists, smashing into the two trees as thick as adults.
He shattered the two adult-thick trees completely, leaving not even a speck of ash behind.
With a tap in the void and a few flashes, he landed opposite the two ghosts.
"I am quite curious, how did you two manage to discover me?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
He was confident that by using the technique from the Shennong Battle Sky Technique to conceal his presence, not to mention two measly ghosts, even a great power at the Cycle Palace Realm would not be able to detect his approach.
The two ghosts before him were merely at the peak of the Control Realm, and yet they had discovered his trail and even joined forces to attack him.
