Chapter 439: Ghost King (Part 2)
"Soul-Hooking Ghost Sound."
Fairy Zi Ling almost didn't need to think before this ghost technique, which made her heart cold, surfaced in her mind.
This spell was a natural spell of high-level demon ghosts. When fighting the enemy, as long as it was cast, it could make the opponent whose cultivation was far lower than their own have their blood flow backward, unable to control themselves and dance wildly without stopping. It was truly an extremely sinister ghost technique!
She had been slightly careless and treated the sound she heard at the beginning as an ordinary ghost howling technique, and naturally felt endless regret in her heart.
Watching herself about to follow the ghost sobbing sound, step by step, dancing wildly forward without autonomy, Fairy Zi Ling was extremely terrified.
Just at this moment, a man's "Tai" sound rang in her ears. This sound was not loud, but it shook her heart and soul like a thunderclap, and then her legs went soft and she sat on the ground.
But then she discovered with joy that she had regained control of her body. This made the woman feel relieved in her heart, and she couldn't help but look forward with gratitude.
Because she heard clearly that the sound was exactly what Han Li had emitted.
"Fellow Daoist Zi Ling! With your cultivation, as long as you guard your heart and soul, you won't be taken advantage of by this ghost sound. You were just careless." Han Li's steady voice rang in the woman's ears again.
Fairy Zi Ling's face flushed slightly, she gave a low "hmm," and then stood up from the ground embarrassedly, guarding her heart and soul as she walked toward Han Li.
When she reached behind Han Li, she unexpectedly discovered that Han Li was standing in place, motionless, staring intently at something ahead.
The woman also looked in the direction of Han Li's gaze, and the scene that entered her eyes made her heart tighten involuntarily.
Only to see in the ghost mist not far away, the black dense mist was rolling endlessly, and green and red light occasionally emitted, while the low rumbling sound and the ghost sound that had made her make a fool of herself just now were intertwined from time to time.
Among them, the black-robed demon cultivator was directing a fire-red strange hammer, spraying countless blue flames, and was entangled in a fierce battle with a blurry black ghost shadow.
That ghost shadow was shrouded in mist, and sacrificed a thumb-sized green bead that emitted pitch-black mysterious yin cold energy, trapping the black-robed figure within it, occupying the upper hand.
And that Soul-Eating Beast, which was said to be able to "absorb souls and eat ghosts," was being entangled from afar by two humanoid ghost objects covered in green hair.
Apart from their pointed heads and each holding a white bone short fork several feet long in their hands, these two monsters were exactly the same as ordinary green-haired zombies. At this moment, they were holding two bone forks and spraying greenish ghost fire, attacking the Soul-Eating Beast incessantly.
The Soul-Eating Beast sprayed yellow light from its nose, and no matter how fierce the ghost fire was, as long as it was rolled by this light, it was all absorbed into its belly without the slightest bit left.
At first glance, the Soul-Eating Beast actually occupied the upper hand.
Because these two green-haired monsters, apart from using the ghost fire on the bone forks to attack from afar, did not dare to get close to the beast at all, seemingly fearing the yellow light very much.
However, because of this, the Soul-Eating Beast was entangled by the two ghost objects and could no longer assist the black-robed figure.
"Ghost Yaksha."
Upon seeing the image of the two green-haired monsters, Zi Ling gasped and blurted out.
"How is it? Does Fellow Daoist Zi know these two things?" Han Li felt a move in his heart, but asked without turning his head.
"It should be correct. Although it is the first time I have seen them, they are exactly the same as described in books. This is a very rare type of zombie, one of the few types of ghost objects that can move in the daytime and roam the heavens and earth. No wonder they are not afraid of the Soul-Eating Beast's pressure and dare to approach. Because they have physical bodies, as long as they are not sprayed by the Soul-Eating Beast's soul-absorbing light at close range, they should be able to entangle this beast. After all, this Soul-Eating Beast looks like its cultivation is still shallow; apart from this soul-absorbing divine light, it doesn't know other divine abilities." Fairy Zi Ling stepped forward, stood side by side with Han Li, and explained with orchid-like breath.
After Han Li finished listening, there was nothing unusual on his face, but he sighed secretly in his heart.
This woman's cultivation was not high, but this knowledge was truly not something that a loose cultivator like him could compare to.
Although he had also read many classics in the Yellow Maple Valley before, his cultivation was still low at that time, and he was not qualified to see some truly valuable secret materials.
As for later, after coming to the Chaotic Star Sea, he bought quite a few classics. But they were definitely not systematically organized by a sect; they were either repeated or missed many things.
Usually, it couldn't be seen, but once it reached a critical moment like this, his own lack of knowledge was revealed.
It seems that if he can escape safely this time, he really needs to go to the Miaoyin Sect to systematically read some such classics. Presumably, the other party will not refuse him, this nominal elder!
Just as Han Li was pondering, the situation in the field changed again.
The blue flames of the fire-red flying hammer were finally completely obscured by the black yin energy released by the ghost shadow's green bead, and the flames were all extinguished, looking extremely precarious.
This made the black-robed figure both surprised and angry!
You must know that for this treasure exploration, he had made full preparations.
He thought that with the power of the Soul-Eating Beast, at the very least, passing the first trial of the Ghost Grievance Land would be an easy task. That was why he flatly refused the invitation of Han Li and the others.
But he didn't expect to run into such a profound evil ghost that knew how to defeat them one by one.
Taking advantage of his momentary carelessness, it launched a surprise attack, separating him from the Soul-Eating Beast, thus falling into such a dangerous situation.
But unfortunately, the disciples of his sect, apart from refining the Soul-Eating Beast and knowing some strange strange techniques, had no outstanding divine abilities when facing the enemy head-on, and could only watch helplessly as his magic fire hammer, which shared his heart and soul, became smaller and smaller in light and weaker and weaker in power.
Thinking of the terrible consequences of falling here, the black-robed figure's heart felt incomparably cold, and he was filled with panic.
Just at this moment, Han Li arrived nearby. This made the black-robed figure, who had suddenly discovered him, overjoyed, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
But Han Li's performance after arriving at the scene made this person, who had always been arrogant, so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Because Han Li, seeing him in such a dangerous situation, didn't have the slightest intention to help, but instead watched his and the demon ghost's struggle coldly from afar.
This made the black-robed figure hate Han Li to the bone, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Subsequently, Fairy Zi Ling also arrived just in time.
Watching the black-robed figure struggling bitterly, Fairy Zi Ling was also surprised why Han Li still didn't make a move.
Could it be that because of the black-robed figure's previous bad attitude, he deliberately wanted to watch the other party die?
The woman didn't think Han Li was such a short-sighted person, and her heart became increasingly suspicious.
And because of Han Li's recent life-saving grace, she couldn't directly speak out her suspicious words. She could only watch the struggle between the black-robed figure and the ghost shadow silently with complicated eyes.
But at this moment, the black-robed figure really couldn't hold on anymore. His flying hammer, under the wrapping of the yin energy released by the green bead, finally had its magic flames extinguished, and was completely trapped in the air.
And at this time, the black ghost shadow let out a sharp whistle, and its body suddenly turned into a streak of black light and shot straight into the black-robed figure's arms.
Although because of the covering of the clothing, it was impossible to see the change in the expression of this demon cultivator.
But he stood in place motionless, seemingly waiting for death with a miserable expression.
The black-robed figure knew very well that although he had released other protective spells outside his body, for such a fierce ghost, it was equivalent to paper. Without a magic treasure to block in front, I'm afraid that with one grab, the various protective shields would be shattered, and he would die on the spot.
And his flying hammer had been trapped, and there were no other magic treasures to sacrifice, so he could only wait for death.
At this critical moment, Han Li, who had been watching coldly from the side, made a move without warning.
Only to see him raise a hand, and four or five slender green sword Qi shot out at high speed, flashing and disappearing as they struck the vital parts of the black shadow.
If the black shadow ignored it and still grabbed the black-robed figure, it could certainly grab the black-robed figure to death, but at the same time, the location of its body's crystal core would likely be smashed to pieces by these sword Qi.
The black shadow naturally wouldn't do such a losing business. Immediately after its body flickered a few times, it withdrew to its original place as if it hadn't moved. Then, its eyes emitted green light as it stared at Han Li, without any emotional fluctuations.
Seeing this situation, strange light flickered in Han Li's eyes, and he flipped his palm, and a small spirit beast bag appeared in his hand.
But he didn't sacrifice this leather bag immediately, but instead flicked his five fingers of the other hand rapidly, and more than ten identical green lights shot out toward the two green-haired yakshas.
Those two ghost objects were quite clever. As soon as they saw the green light shot by Han Li, they flickered a few times and turned into two green smokes, disappearing without a trace.
But a moment later, their figures appeared on both sides of the black ghost shadow again, baring their fangs at Han Li, revealing a mouthful of black-yellow fangs.
And the black-robed figure, taking advantage of the ghost shadow's attention shifting to Han Li, suddenly put all his eggs in one basket and urged all his magic power, actually successfully retrieving the flying hammer, and was overjoyed as he turned into a streak of red light and shot toward Han Li's side.
But at this time, Han Li suddenly shouted coldly with a cold expression.
"Be careful! There are other ghost objects!"
Hearing this, the black-robed figure was stunned! But at this time, a pale, almost invisible gray human figure had already flown out from the mist on the other side, and after a flash, it reached in front of the black-robed figure.
The black-robed figure couldn't dodge in time, and his exposed eyes were filled with horror!
