Chapter 249: Ghost Venerable's Words Come True
Chapter 249: The Words of the Hundred Ghosts Venerable Follow the Law
However, the Venerable Hundred Ghosts came walking in the air with golden flames burning all over his body. At first glance, it seemed as if he was covered with a layer of golden light. Wherever he passed, all the evil spirits retreated. He was like a free man in this black water swamp and soon arrived in front of a small valley.
The white flesh worm suddenly grew several times larger and seemed to be very afraid of the golden flame. Its pair of dark, eyeless eyes stared blankly at the Venerable Hundred Ghosts.
The Lord of Hundred Ghosts stopped in front of the small valley and looked at the giant flesh worm silently. A hint of bitterness first appeared on his face which was covered by golden flames, but then it turned into a look of determination, as if he had made some decision.
"It is your good fortune to die under this forbidden technique..."
With a sigh, the face of the Hundred Ghosts Venerable froze, as if he was speaking to the surrounding world, or as if he was ordering the white fleshworms, he shouted:
"I will use my fifty years of life to reduce your cultivation by half!"
With just a few words, the small valley and its surroundings, which were originally shrouded in black mist, suddenly changed color, wind and clouds surged, and a tremendous power of heaven and earth descended from nowhere.
Even Jiang Yi, who was hiding far away, was caught off guard by the sudden power of heaven and earth. This was the first time he felt the legendary "power of heaven and earth". This great force was so vast and boundless that it made him feel as small as an ant.
The might of the heaven and earth came and went quickly, in just the blink of an eye. But in that instant, the white fleshworm let out a shrill howl, and its huge body rolled in the black water swamp, as if it was being boiled in boiling water.
As it twisted and tumbled, its huge body shrank rapidly, becoming only as thick as a large water tank and a dozen meters long.
And the Lord of a Hundred Ghosts also paid a huge price.
There is a saying in ancient times that "one's hair turns white overnight", but the Hundred Ghosts Venerable actually turns white with just one word...
In just a quick glance, the black hair turned white in an instant, and the ruddy face was filled with deep wrinkles, just like the bark of an old tree.
His originally upright figure suddenly became hunched, and if he were to use a cane, he would really look like a staggering old man in his seventies.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Yi thought to himself that the legendary "words come true" was just like this. It was too incredible. However, he did not feel any envy in his heart, but rather a little sad.
It is powerful, but the price is too high. It costs one's own lifespan. It is like hurting the enemy a thousand and hurting oneself eight hundred. Is it worth it?
In Jiang Yi's opinion, it's not worth it at all.
Jiang Yi was not at all envious of this kind of forbidden technique, and would not practice it even if it was given to him.
It must feel good to have your words followed by your actions, but it can be addictive.
Unless it is someone with great willpower, ordinary people will become obsessed with the feeling of doing what they say once they use it for the first time, and will use it a second and third time whenever there is any danger... Even if each time only takes a year or two, or even just a few days, it won't take long before the lifespan of more than 200 years will be used up.
The price was really too high. The Venerable Hundred Ghosts in front of him was a living example. He went from being a top martial arts master to a desperate man in an instant.
If Jiang Yi guessed correctly, the golden flame burning around his body was probably at the cost of burning his lifespan. It was also the nemesis of evil things like the black mist, which was the origin of the other party's title of "Hundred Ghosts".
Almost at the same time when the Venerable Hundred Ghosts performed the powerful forbidden sacrificial technique, the precious energy that was originally only leaking out in traces in the small valley suddenly exploded like gushing magma.
The red glow covered the sky above the small valley. At the same time, a purple beam of light as thick as a bucket shot up into the sky.
The noise was too loud to be covered up. This purple beam of light alone could probably be seen from hundreds of miles away. I believe it won't be long before countless strong men will flock here.
As the rosy clouds and purple light pillars rose, a rich aura of treasure that made people unable to help but palpitate also emanated, and then an auspicious cloud slowly rose from the small valley.
Above the auspicious clouds was a mansion with a courtyard. Although it didn't look very big, Jiang Yi felt a sense of vastness and a majestic aura. "Is this the Xumi Mansion?"
Seeing the Sumeru Palace supported by auspicious clouds, the flesh worm, which had become only a dozen meters long, showed a look of madness in its eyes, as if it was looking at the treasure it had been waiting to guard for countless years.
Jiang Yi's expression was also surging, but he was still lurking there quietly, waiting for the best opportunity to attack. And now, whoever made the first move would become the target of the fleshworm's venting.
After losing 50% of his cultivation, Jiang Yi no longer felt the helpless feeling of being crushed. Jiang Yi felt that his cultivation was only at the peak of the eighth level of martial arts.
But this was not something he could deal with. The only thing he could do was wait for the opportunity.
The Venerable Hundred Ghosts was also silently looking at the Xumi Palace above the auspicious clouds, but there was no obsession in his eyes, only a solemn sense of anticipation. There was no greed in his eyes either, and they were very clear.
Jiang Yi had a hunch that the forbidden technique he had just performed with his fifty years of life was only the first step, and the Hundred Ghosts Venerable must have a backup plan. Otherwise, in his dying state, he would not be a match for the fleshworms.
Sure enough, Jiang Yi saw from the side that a trace of determination once again appeared on the face of the Venerable Hundred Ghosts, and also with a certain relief, as if he had completed some glorious mission.
But at this moment, Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction where the Lord of a Hundred Ghosts came from. He thought to himself that it was getting lively now. He didn't expect that so many people would come into the stagnant swamp where no one was allowed to enter.
Even Jiang Yi, with his level of cultivation, could sense it, not to mention the Lord Hundred Ghosts and the Flesh Worm, all of them turned their attention in the same direction.
But they all paid some attention to the Xumi Palace, fearing that the other party would suddenly attack and snatch it away.
"Haha, the Venerable's forbidden sacrificial technique is indeed powerful!"
Before the person arrived, a laugh was heard. Jiang Yi was very familiar with this voice. It was Li Yuan, the sixth prince of the Baiyue Dynasty.
"Why is the prince here?"
Venerable Bai Gui carefully watched Xumi Palace and asked with his head tilted. At this time, the other party should be in Leiyin Mountain to preside over the Bai Gu Formation.
"How can I miss the birth of Xumi Palace? Of course I have to come and participate in it in person."
Li Yuan's figure appeared in sight, smiling, but Jiang Yi always felt that the smile was a little sinister, as if it meant something else.
The Hundred Ghosts Venerable obviously sensed it as well, and frowned as he asked, "It would be fine if the prince didn't personally preside over the Hundred Gu Formation at Leiyin Mountain, but why did he bring so many people with him?"
Then he realized something was wrong and continued, "Who are they? Their aura feels very strange.
"Hehe, my old friend, how come you don't even recognize the breath of an old friend?" A soft laugh came from behind Li Yuan, and then a figure appeared.
The old man calmed down as expected. He just looked at Li Yuan deeply, then smiled at the figure and said, "It turns out to be the Lord of Yinshan Mountain. I haven't seen you for many years."
The Lord of Yinshan Mountain, dressed in palace attire, walked out, passed Li Yuan and stood at the front, while a group of figures also appeared behind her.
Jiang Yi in the dark was also surprised. There were indeed many familiar faces.
