Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 268 Fierce Battle!! Kings Never Meet!!

A Demon-level Soul Bead.

For ghosts and spirits, it is definitely a great tonic.

Given the strength of the evil spirits such as the evil-faced ghost, the red-haired corpse king, and even the pig demon elephant and the flying blood zombie, obtaining the essence of evil spirits might not be difficult.

After all, each of them possesses corresponding strength and formidable combat power, making it not difficult for them to kill one or two evil spirits.

A Soul Bead of the "Spiritual" level is completely different.

It is a genuine, fundamental element belonging to the level of evil spirits.

For them, it is an excellent tonic.

At this moment, the moment they killed a demon spirit of the monstrous level and seized such a trophy, they were immediately filled with joy.

But the battlefields for others are different.

It's a level of evil spirit, after all.

Many evil spirits, even the most powerful ones, are almost always crushed when faced with true demonic spirits.

He just made a move on a whim.

puff!
A huge hole immediately appeared on the body of the evil-level ghost spirit, and countless soul essences escaped out, which were then violently sucked in by the wicked-level ghost spirit.

Their souls could not be reassembled and vanished completely.

The same applies to other ghosts and spirits.

Faced with absolute power, even evil-level ghost spirits are nothing more than larger cannon fodder.

However, not all ghosts are like the Flying Pig Demon Elephant and the Flying Blood Zombie, whose strength and methods far surpass those of other experts in the same realm.

Not to mention, they spend most of their time together and fight from time to time, so they are relatively familiar with each other's methods.

Naturally, they can coordinate better during battle.

of course.

The most important battlefield has never been these things.

Rather, it was the very center of the entire battlefield, the battle that belonged solely to the Black Demon King and the Night King.

Both sides are at the level of Ghost Kings.

Their strength and realm have both reached the late stage of the Spirit level, approaching the peak of the Spirit level.

Their strength is incredibly powerful.

At this moment, the commotion during the battle was even more frightening.

Every move they make contains terrifying destructive power.

Even the solid earth was constantly cracking under their attacks.

It is also worth mentioning that it was in such a fierce battle that the difference in strength between the two sides gradually became apparent.

Compared to the Black Demon King, the King of Yelang is clearly a cut above in strength.

This is true in terms of both combat experience and actual combat strength.

The special short sword in his hand, though much smaller in appearance than the Black Ghost King's large sword, was nimble and skillful, and each strike was extremely exquisite.

Like a master swordsman, he moved about, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Seizing the opportunity, the sword flashed instantly.

It left a hole directly in the Black Demon King's body.

Of course, the Black Demon King's strength is beyond doubt.

That giant sword was incredibly powerful and imposing.

It remains unchanged amidst all changes; it doesn't make a move unless it's absolutely necessary, but once it does, it's with overwhelming force, sweeping towards the opponent like a devastating force.

The key point is that every time it makes a move, the area of ​​attack is extremely wide.

Not only did the bombardment target the King of Yelang, but it often spilled over into the surrounding battlefields, striking down the King of Yelang's subordinates.

of course.

At this time, the subordinates of the King of Yelang were also fighting with the subordinates of the Black Ghost King. In addition to attacking the subordinates of the King of Yelang, the Black Ghost King's attacks also affected several of his own evil-level ghost spirits.

It didn't care at all about this.

For it, as long as it can make the other party suffer losses, or even eliminate one or two of the other party's subordinates, that's enough.

As for his subordinates?
It has many evil spirits under its command.

One generation dies, another begins.

It doesn't care about their lives or deaths.

Let alone evil-level ghosts, even those four evil-level ghosts are just consumables to it, which can be discarded at any time.

Therefore, the further you go, the fewer ghosts there are near the battlefield between them.

At this moment, the advantages of the King of Yelang were instantly brought into play.

"Quick! Come over here and let's kill it!"

Immediately, the Black Demon King panicked.

It knew that if it continued, it would inevitably be defeated.

Fortunately, it did have many more ghosts under its command, while the King of Yelang, although he had more evil-level ghosts, was gradually unable to hold on due to the disadvantage in the number of ghosts. Now, only two or three stronger ghosts were left, struggling to hold on.

Defeated and killed is a perfectly normal thing.

Upon hearing the call, some of the ghosts rushed over without hesitation.

But soon, as the King of Yelang made his move, his body flashed across the scene as if he were cutting melons and vegetables, and those ghosts were quickly annihilated, turned into ashes, and were killed.

A late-stage Demon King of the Demonic Realm possesses immense power in every move, making it extremely easy for him to slay these Demonic Realm spirits.

This left them with absolutely no room to resist.

Even so, it still had the strength to contend with the Black Demon King, unleashing sword strikes that were close to their peak.

"The methods of this King of Yelang are truly impressive."

That swordsmanship felt just as good as my light and heavy knife techniques; they were on the same level.

"My technique is with a knife, while itss is with a sword."

Chen Yushu stood at a distance, watching the battle unfold, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Knife techniques and swordsmanship have inherent connections.

Chen Yushu's light and heavy knife techniques can be directly transformed into light and heavy sword techniques with slight modifications.

However, the knife technique is heavy and powerful, while the sword technique is agile. Switching between the two requires a certain amount of time and a very high level of understanding of the corresponding methods.

Chen Yushu had long since mastered the light and heavy knife techniques, and he could easily adapt them into swordsmanship.

Naturally, one can easily discern the exquisite skill in the opponent's swordsmanship.

"Quickly, continue!"

Gradually, the Black Demon King began to panic.

The more it fought, the more it could sense the terror of the King of Yelang. His swordsmanship was unparalleled, and his strength was not only no weaker than his, but even stronger.

Suddenly, he panicked.

Even before that, it had already anticipated that the King of Yelang was very powerful.

But I never imagined that the other party would be so strong.

Even with his over a thousand years of cultivation as a ghost, he was still no match for his opponent.

It should be noted that the other side has only existed for a century.

So he immediately began to summon his men.

With a flash of his eyes, he saw the Pig Demon Elephant withstand the full force of the Demon-level Wolf Ghost's attack. It only took a half step back before stepping forward again and slamming its club into the Demon-level Wolf Ghost's body, causing its soul to tremble violently.

At the same time, they saw the Flying Blood Zombie, its entire body crimson, its claws landing directly on the back of the Demon-level Wolf Ghost, and pulling it hard.

With a tearing sound, the opponent's body was immediately ripped apart.

A rich essence of soul energy was immediately released.

Even though the opponent's soul quickly solidified and coalesced, it inevitably became much weaker.

Taking this opportunity, the red-haired zombie king also made his move.

Then, the evil-faced demon seized the opportunity, its hands like knives, and slashed fiercely.

puff……

In just a few rounds, the ghost's soul shattered three times, and finally, on the fourth attempt, it could not hold on any longer and completely collapsed, never to be able to reform again.

A supernatural-grade soul bead immediately appeared on the ground.

Upon seeing this, the evil-faced ghost immediately lunged forward and snatched the demon-level soul bead into his hand.

Seeing this, the Black Demon King's eyes lit up, and he immediately called out, "Pig Demon Elephant, Flying Blood Zombie, come here quickly, kill it, and I will reward you handsomely."

It was also in a hurry. Seeing that there were ghost spirits among its subordinates with such skills, it immediately summoned them to help, completely disregarding the fact that the Flying Blood Zombie and others only had the strength of evil spirits.

In response, the evil-faced ghost and his companions didn't move an inch, as if they hadn't heard anything. Instead, they rushed away from the battlefield at an even faster speed.

There happened to be a level-3 wolf demon there, struggling to hold on, but facing an attack from three level-3 early-stage ghost spirits.

It was at a significant disadvantage.

Even with the addition of the evil-faced demons, it was still holding on, though it was still struggling and desperately trying to stay afloat.

At this point, whether it was the Pig Demon Elephant, the Flying Blood Zombie, or the other three early-stage Demon-level ghost spirits, they all seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. Although their attacks appeared fierce, they did not use their full strength.

They're just maintaining this situation.

Which of the ghosts present wasn't a cunning and treacherous old fox?

Knowing full well that joining the battle between the demon kings would mean certain death, why would they risk joining in?

Rather than that, it would be better to maintain the current state of the battle and quietly observe the outcome of that fight.

As a result, a bizarre scene was created at the scene.

More than ten ghosts attacked one ghost at the same time, but the battle was extremely fierce and difficult.

Even to outsiders, among these dozen or so ghosts, there were quite a few at the early stage of the Demonic level. Whether in terms of aura or strength, they were no weaker than the opposing ghost, yet they still couldn't completely defeat it.

"clever!
However, judging from the situation, the Black Demon King wouldn't let them have it so easy.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yushu couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

It's important to understand that although he could connect with his contracted spirit in his mind, he didn't actually control the actual battle process.

This is clearly not a situation that Black Ghost King would want to see.

really.

Seeing his many subordinates fooling around, its face immediately turned ugly.

After blocking one of Yelang King's attacks, it fought and retreated, quickly rushing towards the battlefield where the pig demon elephant and other ghost spirits were located.

"Take care of it quickly."

Let's join forces to deal with the King of Yelang.

Otherwise, none of you will have an easy time!

The Black Demon King roared, his eyes flashing with endless ferocity.

As the Ghost King, he absolutely has the right to say that.

Previously, any ghost that dared to disobey his orders had no choice but to die.

Overwhelmed by its majesty, the two early-stage demon spirits of the Sumeru level did not hesitate and attacked one after another.

boom! boom!
Instantly, two holes appeared on the body of the besieged early-stage Demon-level wolf demon, and a large amount of soul essence dissipated.

Seeing this, the other ghosts also took action.

soon.

The ghost that had just been able to fight them on equal footing was immediately severely injured. Not only did a large amount of its soul essence dissipate, but its soul itself also began to crumble.

But at that moment, the Black Demon King and the Night King, while fighting and charging, also quickly approached.

Then, at a certain moment, the King of Yelang actually abandoned the battle with the Black Wolf King. With a flash, he rushed directly onto the battlefield among them, his long sword turning into a stream of light as he thrust out one after another.

puff!puff!puff!
One by one, the ghosts were struck as if by a heavy blow, and their souls quickly shattered.

This even included a ghost spirit at the early stage of the Demonic level.

Pierced by this sword, a large portion of the soul shattered.

Although it quickly coalesced and gathered again, it was much weaker than before and not as agile.

"retreat!"

Upon seeing this, Chen Yushu couldn't help but let out a low shout.

He didn't want the few ghost spirits he had painstakingly subdued to perish in such a battle.

So, on a sudden impulse, he quickly gave orders to the ghosts.

For evil spirits like the evil-faced ghost, Chen Yushu's orders are above all else.

Therefore, after he gave the order, without the slightest hesitation, the evil-faced ghost, the pig demon elephant, the red-haired corpse king, and the flying blood zombie all moved and immediately fled into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the battlefield and covered five or six zhang.

While they charged out of the battlefield, the King of Yelang was wreaking havoc.

One by one, the ghosts died at its hands.

It swept away everything in its path with overwhelming force; no ghosts or spirits could withstand a single blow.

"Attack together, or you'll all die!"

The Black Demon King naturally discovered the escaped pig demon elephant and other ghost spirits immediately, but at this moment, it could not care about anything else. It quickly gathered its subordinates and ordered them to attack the Night King together.

Its long sword transformed into a bolt of lightning, and seizing the opportunity, it slashed out fiercely.

The other two evil spirits also dared not hesitate and made their moves.

As for other evil spirits...

Although they were terrified, they were equally ruthless in battle, launching attacks against the King of Yelang.

boom! boom! boom!
sizzle...

The void shook.

The earth itself was entangled in the struggle.

The intense fluctuations in vital energy caused the surrounding trees to tremble.

The battle immediately became incredibly fierce.

As a terrifying atmosphere permeated the air, wisps of remnant souls scattered in all directions.

It let out a shrill scream, like the wailing of ghosts and howling of wolves.

"This battle."

That was really intense!

Chen Yushu gazed into the distance, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Although he had long known that a battle between the Black Ghost King and the King of Yelang was inevitable.

The saying goes, "Kings never meet," meaning that if there are two ghost kings in one area.

Then a conflict will inevitably break out between the two sides, and either one side will retreat or the other side will be defeated and killed.

The King of Yelang had been staying in this area for a long time. The Black Ghost King had tried to persuade him to leave several times, but for some reason, he had not left.

As time went on, the Black Ghost King could no longer tolerate it, which is why he joined forces with many ghosts and spirits within his territory to launch a siege against the King of Yelang.

For some unknown reason, the King of Yelang was unwilling to compromise, which led to this battle...
