Chapter 1334: Immortal Rank, Sheep that Can be Slaughtered at Will
The Charm of Soul Pets
âNine Ghosts Shen, is your Ghost Blood Diagram finished?!â impatiently yelled Xu Lu.
Xu Lu hurrying Nine Ghosts Shen meant that he was feeling uneasy.
Even with seven of them there, a few of them had been instakilled. These five people, although strong, if any one of them were killed, the remaining would be slaughtered without any chance to fight back.
Nine Ghosts Shen returned to his senses and glanced at his five Blood Ghosts. He noticed how they were almost about to finish their incantations and hastily used a mental voice to say: âJust a little bit more. Donât let it get to me, otherwise everyone will die!â
Elemental Sectâs Guo Enlong and Ocean Lord Xue Yingfeng had already ordered their soul pets to attack Chu Mu in order to buy time for Nine Ghosts Shen.
âIâve finished. But itâs moving too fast. My Great Ghost Blood Diagram might not be able to fully seal it as itâs being released. We need to lure it into the center of the formation.â Nine Ghosts Shen used a mental voice to tell the others.
âXu Kuan, use your Lightâs Fury as bait.â Xu Lu ordered Xu Kuan.
Xu Kuan would always listen to his older brother, Xu Kuan. Even when his life was in danger, he didnât hesitate. He ordered his Lightâs Fury to fly into the center of the Great Ghost Blood Formation.
The Lightâs Fury was an elemental soul pet. Its light type techniques posed no small threat to the dark type Nightmares. If it werenât for the Lightâs Fury earlier, Third White wouldnât have been suppressed so quickly.
Right now, the Lightâs Fury had run to a location where it was nearly exposed and invested itself in chanting an incantation.
Simultaneously, Xu Luâs Light Emperor, Guo Enlongâs Unifying Wind Unicorn, and Xue Yingfengâs Python Tail Blue Lion had intentionally slowed their offensive tempo, exposing the gap to Chu Mu!
Chu Mu instantly saw the Lightâs Fury which was almost completely defenseless. He glanced at the three immortal rank soul pets surrounding him and a cold smile rose on his face.
He took a step forth and his body easily passed by the three immortal rank soul pets, mysteriously appearing in front of the Lightâs Fury.
The black and white devil was fast. In fact, Xu Lu was certain that even if they didnât slow their attacks, it would still be able to easily reach the Lightâs Fury.
Xu Kuan saw that the devil had appeared in front of his Lightâs Fury. Although he had prepared his heart for this, he still felt a bitter knot there.
âLight Fantasy!â Xu Kuan ordered his Lightâs Fury.
The incantation the Lightâs Fury had been chanting just now wasnât to attack the dual evil devil. Instead, while standing in the Great Ghost Blood Formation, it had been chanting a fleeing incantation. The moment the dual evil devil appeared, the Lightâs Fury would immediately flee!
Flashes of light erratically appeared and the Lightâs Fury seized this to flee in all directions!
In Chu Muâs silver eyes, the Lightâs Furyâs series of incantations and fleeing movements were incomparably slow.
In fact, he had already predicted it would immediately flee. Thus, the moment it began chanting the fleeing incantation, Chu Mu had prepared a dark prison for the Lightâs Fury.
âDual Evil Mound!â
The flames burning in Chu Muâs hands fiercely slapped the earth!
After transforming into a black and white dual evil devil, the speed at which Chu Mu released Evil Mound was much faster now. He would normally require a few seconds to prepare the technique in order to fully exhibit its might. But now, the technique could be instantly completed!
An enormous evil mound began hovering over Chu Muâs head. Different from the previous dark evil mound iterations, the evil mound this time was divided into black and white.
A shadow covered over the Lightâs Fury, and the moment it moved, the stunning dual evil mound descended, imprisoning it inside!
âBeng!!!!â
The instant the evil mound descended, devil flames began to sweep out from the evil mound, transforming the barren land into a black and silver devil flame ocean!
The violent devil flames roared in Xu Kuanâs face. Xu Kuan didnât expect his Lightâs Fury to be unable to flee, and as he looked at the enormous evil mound, he was frozen in place.
âHurry... hurry and save my Lightâs Fury!â Xu Kuan shouted in panic.
Even the Blood Barbarian Hidden Dragon, with the tenacious life force of a dragon, had been instantly killed. How many seconds would his Lightâs Fury be able to survive under the devilish claws of this dual evil devil?
When the Lightâs Fury and Chu Mu were simultaneously covered by the evil mound, Xu Kuan felt as if he had descended into unknown darkness. His entire body and even soul was cold!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nine Ghosts Shen didnât really know what to do. If he were to activate the Great Ghost Blood Formation, the Lightâs Fury and black and white evil devil would both be sealed. But it was obvious what kind of end the Lightâs Fury would meet if it were stuck with the terrifying devil inside a sealed space!
In front of the dual evil devil, their powerful immortal rank creatures would be rendered into sheep that could be slaughtered at will!
âNine Ghosts Shen, what are you just standing there for?! Hurry and activate the Great Ghosts Blood Formation!â roared Xu Lu.
âBig brother, my Lightâs Fury is still inside!â shouted Xu Kuan.
The Light Emperor, Unifying Wind Unicorn, and Python Tail Blue Lion were the strongest. From their current locations, they would be unable save the Lightâs Unicorn in time.
âNine Ghosts Shen!â Xu Lu ignored Xu Kuan and roared with an ordering tone.
Even Xu Lu did not hesitate to sacrifice Xu Kuanâs soul pets. How could Nine Ghosts Shen have time for pity? If he missed this opportunity, it would be extremely difficult to seal this dark devil!
âPu pu pu~~~~~~~â
The fresh blood path was laid out, passing through the scorched black earth and forming a âåâ pattern.
The blood path rose up into the sky, drawing an enormous ghost blood formation, dripping with blood, above Chu Muâs dual evil mound.
It had a striking red color, a fierce design, and a violent blood fiend ghost aura!
Departed Spirit Palace Shen Buâs five strongest blood ghosts appeared on the blood path laid out. They opened their fierce mouths and continuously spat out blood towards the Ghost Blood Diagram in the sky, making the bloody design even more striking!
The thick blood that the five ghosts were spitting out had been gathered by Shen Bu from living bodies when he normally engaged in slaughter. If all of the blood were to be spat out from the five ghosts, it was capable of filling a dried-up river!!
The five ghosts had used up one-third of the fresh blood when they had sealed the Black Nightmare earlier. This one third had taken Shen Bu three years and thousands of lives to collect.
But this dual evil devil was even more tyrannically strong than the Black Nightmare. Under the threat of death, NIne Ghosts Shen didnât dare be stingy with the blood stored within the five ghosts. He had the ghosts spit the remaining two-thirds of blood into the Great Ghost Blood Diagram to ensure the dual evil devil would be thoroughly sealed!
âMy... my Light... My Lightâs Fury...â Xu Kuan stared with wide eyes at the completion of the Great Ghost Blood Formation. He looked like he had lost his soul.
Once the Great Ghost Blood Formation finished sealing, Xu Kuanâs Lightâs Fury wouldnât have any chance left of surviving.
âE!!!!!!â
Suddenly, a miserable hair-raising cry rang out from the Great Ghost Blood Formation and the dual evil mound. It came from the Lightâs Fury.
The sharp cry of extreme pain made the other four involuntarily tremble. Because they couldnât see the miserable state the Lightâs Fury was in inside the dark evil mound, they felt more scared.
If it had been one of them whose soul pets had acted as bait, they would find it extremely difficult to watch their immortal rank soul pets, that they had painstakingly raised, be ripped apart.
Indeed, Xu Kuan had already powerlessly sat on the ground. His face was terrifyingly pale.
Losing his immortal rank Lightâs Fury was the same as him being killed!
âHmph, itâs just a soul pet. Once we obtain the Messiah Tree Seed, youâll have as many immortal rank soul pets as you want. Sacrificing a bit is nothing!â Xu Lu glanced at Xu Kuan and berated him for not understanding.
Xu Kuan looked up with a pained expression at his older brother, Xu Lu.
Xu Kuanâs confidence in Xu Lu contained no traces of doubt. Even if he wanted his Lightâs Fury to become bait, he wouldnât hesitate at all.
However, when his older brother had ordered Nine Ghosts Shen to activate the Great Ghost Blood Formation, his eyes contained no trace of disturbance. It was a form of ruthlessness that made Xu Kuan even feel terrified.
Xu Kuan really wanted to know if it had been him and his Lightâs Fury standing together, imprisoned by the dual evil devil, whether Xu Lu would still not bat an eye and have Nine Ghosts Shen activate the ghost blood seal.
Despite following Xu Lu for so many years, this was the first time Xu Kuan felt how terrifying Xu Lu actually was.
âNine Ghosts Shen, how long will your Great Ghost Blood Formation last for? How much of its life force can it consume?â asked Ocean Lord Xu Yingfeng.
Now that the dual evil devil had been sealed, this was the best opportunity for the five of them to flee. If they all fled in different directions, the dual evil devil would only be able to chase one of them once it broke through the seal.
Ocean Lord Xue Yingfengâs question was to understand whether the seal would give them enough time to flee.
All of the spirit dominator rank experts they had brought had been burned to ashes by the flames and three immortal rank soul pets had died. Thus, realistically speaking, not a single one of them would be without lingering fear.
âI used two-thirds of the sealed blood I spent ten years accumulating. Iâm not sure how long it will be able to seal it for...â Nine Ghosts Shen let out a sigh of relief and a mocking smile rose on his face as he continued, âBut Iâm sure a large amount of its life force will be removed. According to my estimations, it doesnât matter how long the seal lasts, its strength will be weakened to less than 40 percent of its original power. It could even be lower!â
âAre you for real?â said Elemental Sect's Guo Enlong.
âOf course. The life force of the Black Nightmare earlier was removed by my Great Ghost Blood Diagram.â said Nine Ghosts Shen.
Fleeing was always going to be the last resort. Nobody could guarantee they wouldnât become the target of pursuit. Moreover, they had suffered horrible losses this time. If they didnât obtain the Messiah Tree Seed, they wouldnât be able to explain it to their superiors. Most importantly, they had caused a massive scene. Thus, the righteous factions with Divine Sect at the head would definitely punish them. Without the protection of their superiors, they would die!
âNine Ghosts Shenâs five ghosts seal is famous everywhere. There wonât be any mistakes. However, we shouldnât lower our guard. Heal up your soul pets and prepare at any moment to slaughter the dual evil devil once the seal disappears!â Xu Lu had already witnessed Nine Ghostâs Shenâs five ghosts seal in the past, so he was very confident in Nine Ghosts Shen.
In the end, the greed of these five people had defeated the fear they had towards the dual evil devil.
Once they killed the dual evil devil, they would be able to obtain the Messiah Tree Seed. Such an enormous profit and an enormous amount of power was in front of them. Why would they be willing to turn and leave and surrender it?
However, none of them knew whether their choice would allow them to soar into the air and arrogantly laugh at the world, or whether their greed would be burned with them as they were forever buried here alongside the other invaders.
