Chapter 459
Originally, if it had fought hard, it could have maneuvered for a while, but in the fierce battle, without warning, a big hook flew over and hooked the Ghost King’s main artery.
"Holy crap, what is that?"
The sudden hook made the Ghost King pause, and then a huge force came, causing it to lose its balance.
At the same time, Qingshi shouted from not far away.
"Don't you act yet, old drunkard?"
It turned out that Qingshi hadn't participated in the battle, always looking for an opportunity on the side. Seeing the Ghost King off guard, it threw out a hook.
Seeing this, Hong Zun was overjoyed.
"Good hook!"
As he spoke, he slashed with his sword. Facing the incoming sword, the Ghost King wanted to dodge and resist, but it had no way.
It could only watch as the blade hit it fiercely. Taking Hong Zun’s sword head-on, and without any defense, the Ghost King was instantly heavily injured.
Heavily injuring the Ghost King, Hong Zun didn't stop at all, rushed up, and slashed again.
With two consecutive sword strikes, the Ghost King wanted to dodge, but it had no way.
And after being heavily injured, its strength had dropped a lot, no longer enough to continue contending with Hong Zun.
Not to mention the constant attacks from Wang Tieshu’s many treasures on the side, making it exhausted.
Take advantage of the illness to kill it. Facing such a good opportunity, Hong Zun naturally wouldn't waste it.
After a fierce battle, the Ghost King was clearly pushed to the brink.
Seeing this, other Ghost Kings wanted to come to support, but they were dragged down by Qi Xiong, Mo Yun, Qin Long, and others.
"Hong Zun, how dare you..."
Seeing Hong Zun about to kill the Ghost King in one blow, the other Ghost Kings were furious, but they had no way.
In the end, they could only watch as the Ghost King died under Hong Zun’s sword.
A Ghost King had fallen; such a result was clearly something the Ghost Kings hadn't expected.
They came aggressively, and it was on their own turf, and the number of Ghost Kings was in an absolute advantage.
But in the end, their own Ghost King was the first to be killed?
Facing such a result, many Ghost Kings looked fiercely at Qingshi.
Although Hong Zun’s strength was indeed strong, without Qingshi’s coordination, without that sudden hook, Hong Zun would never have killed this Ghost King so easily.
"Despicable humans!"
A Ghost King roared. These humans were indeed despicable; even fighting was done sneakily.
To this, Qingshi didn't care at all. This is called tactics; you don't understand anything, a bunch of brainless things.
Curling its lips, Qingshi continued to look for targets, but with the previous lesson, the Ghost Kings were clearly on guard.
Even in the fierce battle, they had to divide a part of their attention to guard against Qingshi.
Qi Xiong was fighting one against two—no, now it should be one against three.
The Ghost Kings also knew that Qi Xiong was the most important. As the Sect Master of the Dao Yi Sect, as long as they dealt with him, the Dao Yi Sect would be a pile of loose sand.
So naturally, they paid special attention to him.
Facing three Ghost Kings alone, Qi Xiong’s pressure was imaginable; he had already fallen into a disadvantage.
Qin Long, Mo Yun, Shi Song, and others not far away wanted to support, but they were all dragged down and had no chance to act.
After all, they were also fighting one against two, and the pressure was not small.
"So what? Qi Xiong, you killed one of my Ghost Kings, so what? This is my Ghost Valley."
Because they saw their own Ghost King killed with their own eyes, these three Ghost Kings were full of killing intent, and their attacks were extremely vicious.
They had the advantage in numbers; you killed one of our Ghost Kings, so what? Does it affect anything?
Wasn't the situation still firmly in the hands of Ghost Valley?
Facing the roar of the three Ghost Kings, Qi Xiong ignored them completely.
In terms of numbers, the Dao Yi Sect indeed didn't have the advantage, but... when it comes to group fighting, the Dao Yi Sect had never lost.
To be precise, Qi Xiong and his group of junior brothers had never lost.
It had been like this since they were young, until now.
There was a gap in numbers, and they were at a disadvantage; Qi Xiong and the others didn't know how many times they had experienced such situations.
The junior brothers already had a tacit understanding.
Counting the time, it should be about time.
Just as Qi Xiong was thinking this, suddenly, one after another, ninth-rank arrays rose into the sky.
"Arrays?"
Feeling at least dozens of ninth-rank arrays being triggered, the Ghost Kings all frowned. Where did these ninth-rank arrays come from?
These Ghost Kings clearly didn't notice that from the beginning until now, besides Qingshi not acting head-on, there was another person who hadn't acted.
And it was the kind that had disappeared directly.
This person was Zhang Tianzhen, the Peak Master of the Array Peak.
He naturally didn't flee from the battle, but went to set up arrays. As an array master, this was what he should do.
And Qi Xiong and the others were waiting for this opportunity.
The arrays rose into the sky, instantly enveloping Qi Xiong and the others, as well as the Ghost Kings.
"Hmph, mere ninth-rank arrays."
Suddenly enveloped by the arrays, the Ghost Kings were a bit nervous at first, but soon snorted coldly.
Ninth-rank arrays were powerful, but they couldn't kill Ghost King-level existences instantly. Besides, don't forget Qi Xiong and the others were also in the arrays.
But just as the Ghost Kings finished speaking, Qi Xiong and the others took out an array plaque and wore it on their bodies.
"A bunch of idiots, this is the Nine Absolutes Illusion Heart Array."
The array carefully set up by Zhang Tianzhen naturally couldn't be just at the ninth-rank level.
A single array might only be ninth-rank, but with so many arrays combined, the grade was infinitely close to the Saint level.
This was a unique method created by Zhang Tianzhen, called the Nine Absolutes Illusion Heart Array.
By combining different illusion arrays, the power of the array was enhanced, finally making it erupt with power comparable to a Saint-level array.
Of course, this method of combining many ninth-rank arrays could enhance the power of the array, but it also had drawbacks.
That was, compared to a real Saint-level array, it was much easier to break.
Because it was composed of many arrays, one only needed to destroy a few of them at will, and the entire Nine Absolutes Illusion Heart Array would lose its effect.
Troublesome to set up and easy to break—with these two fatal flaws, the practicality of the Nine Absolutes Illusion Heart Array was greatly reduced.
However, this was in normal times. At this moment, Qi Xiong and the others were all present, so they naturally wouldn't give the Ghost Kings a chance to destroy the array.
The array plaques hanging on everyone were personally made by Zhang Tianzhen and could immunize them from the Nine Absolutes Illusion Heart Array.
With the array plaques on them, Qi Xiong and the others were completely unaffected by the array, while the Ghost Kings, on the other hand, all fell into hallucinations.
"Qi Xiong, die!"
"Haha, fight with me? Do you think my Ghost Valley is really afraid of your Dao Yi Sect?"
One of the Ghost Kings in front of Qi Xiong was seen frantically attacking the air while laughing triumphantly.
It seemed as if it had already killed Qi Xiong with its own hands.
There were two other Ghost Kings.
One smiled lecherously.
"Hehe, beautiful concubine, come quickly, I've missed you so much."
"So what if I'm impatient?"
Another one was worried, with a heavy expression.
"Darling, this isn't good. If Chen Wang finds out about our relationship, it will be troublesome."
"Oh, Chen Wang is not in Ghost Valley? Darling, I'm coming."
Looking at the reactions of the three Ghost Kings, Qi Xiong nodded with satisfaction. It seemed they had all fallen into the illusion.
But what is the situation with this last Ghost King? Is it Chen Wang’s ghost wife? Holy crap, you evil spirits play so wildly?
And...
His gaze couldn't help but look at the first Ghost King who laughed loudly, thinking he had killed him. Isn't this guy Chen Wang?
This is truly something, playing so big?
