Chapter 297

But there was no doubt that magic crystal jade was a good thing, especially for continuous fighting and killing. Sometimes a few pieces of magic crystal jade could determine the life and death of a cultivator.

Treasures that sustained magic power sold very well.

And besides these good things, Fang Yu saw that in the Slayer of Immortals' treasure bag, there was also a sword array composed of sixteen supreme-grade treasure flying swords.

Sixteen supreme-grade treasure flying swords.

What kind of concept was this?

The strength of this Slayer of Immortals was even wealthier than the Golden Core masters of the Feathering Sect, because Golden Core masters like Wan Luo and Ling Xiao in the Feathering Sect only had a few supreme-grade treasures.

Sixteen supreme-grade treasures were indeed a huge number.

Not only were there sixteen supreme-grade treasure flying swords, but in the Slayer of Immortals' treasure bag, there were also five hundred high-grade treasure flying swords and one thousand mid-grade treasure flying swords.

As for low-grade treasure and top-grade spirit weapon flying swords, the number was even greater.

"Good guy, what wealth."

Fang Yu looked at the wealth in the Slayer of Immortals' treasure bag and immediately felt her wealth and arrogance. She was worthy of being the second-ranked great thief among the Forty Great Thieves, worthy of being a great thief supported by the God race. If the treasures of this Slayer of Immortals were rewarded to the inner and outer disciples of the Feathering Sect, the overall strength of the Feathering Sect would rise to a higher level.

Five hundred high-grade treasure flying swords, one thousand mid-grade treasure flying swords—these treasures were of little use to Fang Yu now, but if a disciple in the physical secret realm obtained a high-grade treasure flying sword, to what level would they grow?

Whether it was the underground world or the Land of Return to Ruins, they could venture into it with their own immortal fate. If they happened to obtain some cave dwelling left by a senior expert, they could rise immediately.

For cultivators at low levels, they had infinite possibilities, and a mid-grade treasure could possibly bring them incredibly rich returns, a snowball-like return.

With a mid-grade treasure, there might be a high-grade treasure; with a high-grade treasure, there might be a supreme-grade treasure; when a supreme-grade treasure was also obtained, there might be a low-grade Dao artifact…

Fang Yu's acquisition of the Slayer of Immortals' treasures this time could be said to have brought huge gains to the Feathering Sect, but it was a bit worse for Fang Yu, after all, only Dao artifacts could catch his eye now.

"The God race's support for the Forty Great Thieves has truly reached a terrifying level."

At the same time, Fang Yu pondered about the Forty Great Thieves and the God race in the Land of Return to Ruins. Now that the second, third, and fourth ranked thieves had been removed by him, he would have to meet the most powerful first-ranked thief, the Abandoning Heaven Thief, when he had time.

However, the strength of that Abandoning Heaven Thief could not be underestimated. In her hand, she had a high-grade Dao artifact.

He didn't even have a high-grade Dao artifact yet. The strongest treasure in his hand was a mid-grade Dao artifact. Of course, the Profound Yellow Heaven-Covering Hand refined from the Profound Yellow Mother Qi Root could be said to be very powerful, and the Li Fire God Furnace brought from the Shrouding the Heavens world could perhaps be counted as a high-grade Dao artifact; he would only know after truly fighting.

If the Li Fire God Furnace were to face the first-ranked thief's high-grade Dao artifact, the Great Chaos Thunder Sword, it didn't seem very reliable.

However, Fang Yu would not face the first-ranked thief right now. This matter didn't need to be too urgent.

"Now let's leave the city. Maybe the Ghost Emperor has been waiting anxiously."

After counting the treasures, Fang Yu said to Fang Han.

"Yes, Senior Brother. I am also a bit curious about how strong that Ghost Emperor is. The Yellow Springs Demonic Sect, after all, someone has come to find me, and I must face it seriously."

A sharp look appeared on Fang Han's face, as if he had the idea of fighting the Ghost Emperor.

"Good, let's go out."

Stepping out of this city of the Great Profound Empire again, after traveling a hundred miles with great fanfare, suddenly ghosts cried and gods howled, and bursts of gloomy wind drilled out from the ground. Countless gloomy souls and evil ghosts floated in the gloomy wind, finally condensing into a throne.

On this throne sat a middle-aged cultivator wearing hemp clothes, with a pale face and pale ghost fire floating in his eyeballs.

This middle-aged cultivator had very long fingernails, a full foot long. Each fingernail seemed to be sharper than a supreme-grade treasure flying sword. His appearance was very terrifying, looking like an evil ghost from hell.

"Do you know? I have been waiting for you for several days. This is an unforgivable sin of yours. Kneel down, and you can reduce your sins. Otherwise, in a while, you will die very ugly."

This middle-aged cultivator made a gloomy and miserable sound.

In front of Fang Yu's group, a middle-aged cultivator appeared. Looking at his appearance, gloomy and filled with ghost aura, one could tell at a glance that he was not a good thing.

And in the Yellow Springs Map, Yan was even more fiercely angry: "This dog thing, Yin Yin Wuchang, when the Yellow Springs Great Emperor was still around, he was just an ordinary elder. Now his cultivation hasn't even reached the Longevity Secret Realm, yet he dares to call himself the Ghost Emperor! Hmph, without Yellow Springs Holy Water, he cannot refine the boundless gloomy souls in his body, and sooner or later he will be backlashed and eventually die."

When Yan saw this middle-aged cultivator who called himself the Ghost Emperor, he showed a very dissatisfied expression on his face.

Because in the Demonic Sect, generally only experts in the Longevity Secret Realm were called Emperors, which were Demonic Emperors.

Now this "Ghost Emperor," Yin Yin Wuchang, whose cultivation was only at the tenth level of supernatural powers, the Heaven-Defying Life-Changing realm, called himself an Emperor. Clearly, it was the reason for the internal chaos of the Yellow Springs Sect.

Fang Yu was about to speak up to fight with this demonic path person at the tenth level of supernatural powers, the Heaven-Defying Life-Changing realm, but Fang Han transmitted his spiritual sense.

"Brother Yu, this Ghost Emperor is a person from the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect. After I obtained the Yellow Springs Map, I will sooner or later have to face the experts of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect. Senior Brother, please suppress the formation for me, and I will meet him."

"Good."

Fang Yu nodded, not in a hurry to take action.

And at this time, Fang Han walked out and looked at the Ghost Emperor. "Ghost Emperor, you also know that I obtained the Yellow Springs Map and am the successor of the Yellow Springs Great Emperor. As an elder of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect, you speak wildly when you see the successor of the Great Emperor. What is the reason?"

"What did you say?"

The Ghost Emperor's voice was gloomy, and his pair of eyes were even paler, as if he were an evil ghost crawling out of hell. "You actually claim to be the successor of the Yellow Springs Great Emperor and still want me to bow down and submit? Your sins are truly even heavier. I will torture you severely!"

Suddenly, the Ghost Emperor grabbed with his large hand, and immediately a piece of pale ghost fire shrouded toward Fang Han.

This ghost fire was surging, burning fiercely, with white flames covering the sky, suppressing down like a mountain. And it was not hot, but rather cold and bone-chilling. It was actually a rare kind of cold flame in heaven and earth, the Nether Ghost Fire.

The Nether Ghost Fire was another supreme divine ability among fire-type divine abilities, not inferior to the Feathering Sect's Vast Heaven True Fire or the Taiyi Sect's Great Sun Fire Disaster. And the cultivation of this Nether Ghost Fire was also very difficult. To practice this fire, one must slaughter a large number of living beings, seize their spirits, then integrate them into the Earthly Fiend Qi, and finally, the ghost fire would be completed, evolving into the Nether, which was incredibly powerful.

This was a supreme divine ability of the fire-type in the demonic path. Those who could refine this kind of flame were all monstrous demons who had slaughtered countless living beings and seized countless spirits.

Facing this fire, Fang Han seemed to know its power, and immediately unleashed the low-grade Dao artifact, the King of Blood Night. The power of the King of Blood Night was fully concentrated, and he slashed out a blade toward the Nether Ghost Fire.

But the pale Nether Ghost Fire wrapped around the King of Blood Night all of a sudden, making the King of Blood Night creak and groan, trapping it inside. Then countless Nether Ghost Kings suppressed down like mountains, directly suppressing and killing toward Fang Han.

The Ghost Emperor was worthy of being the Ghost Emperor. This action directly showed his vast supernatural powers and boundless magic power, using a portion of the Nether Ghost Fire to trap Fang Han's low-grade Dao artifact, and using absolute magic power to destroy Fang Han's main body.

If the main body were broken, the Ghost Emperor would naturally have plenty of energy to properly deal with the low-grade Dao artifact, the King of Blood Night.

"Xingchan!"

Fang Yu hadn't taken action yet, but Xingyun Xingyun Baobao took action. He directly rotated the Sun and Moon Five-Star Bracelet violently, and a large piece of starlight shone out, immediately shaking away a large piece of the Nether Ghost Fire.

The Sun and Moon Five-Star Bracelet was a pure yang Dao artifact. Although its pure lethality was not as powerful as the King of Blood Night, its pure yang power had a unique ability to resist the Nether Ghost Fire.

"Hmph, a pure yang Dao artifact wants to block me? It's truly a daydream!"

The Ghost Emperor sat on the Gloomy Soul Throne. Seeing Xingyun Xingyun Baobao shaking away the demonic aura, he opened his mouth and spat, and immediately more Nether Ghost Fire came out. Heaven and earth were a pale color, and the terrifying white flames covered an area of fifty miles in an instant.

This area of fifty miles originally had many trees, but they were induced by the Nether Ghost Fire and withered one after another. And many snakes, rats, insects, ants, tigers, leopards, and jackals on the ground and underground also died all of a sudden, their souls all absorbed by this Nether Ghost Fire, adding more power to this Nether Ghost Fire.

This Nether Ghost Fire had this kind of terrifying power. Once it shrouded down, all the souls of living beings were absorbed, burned, and integrated into the ghost fire. It was a destructive and predatory cold flame.

Fang Yu saw the Ghost Emperor showing off his great power and exerting the terrifying power of the Nether Ghost Fire, pondering whether he should take action to break his divine ability with the Great Five Elements Technique, but at this time, Fang Han took action again.

"Gate of Abi, open for me! Nether Ghost Fire, absorb it all!"

Just as the endless Nether Ghost Fire burned over, seemingly wanting to burn the souls of Fang Han, Fang Yu, and Xingyun Xingyun Baobao clean, Yan took action all of a sudden and opened the Gate of Abi.

Once this supreme demonic gate of the demonic path was opened, it just swept over and formed a vortex, immediately swallowing countless Nether Ghost Fire inside, and the Abi demonic aura became even more intense.

Bitter, bitter!

Countless painful sounds resounded. Each sound represented a kind of pain, representing eternal and uninterrupted pain, gathering into a sea of bitterness, terrifying and immeasurable.

What is a sea of bitterness? The Shrouding the Heavens world has its own saying that there is a place in the human body called the sea of bitterness, while the Eternal Life world says the Gate of Abi, the combination of endless pain, can be called the sea of bitterness.

The Gate of Abi is the endless sea of bitterness.

Almost in the blink of an eye, these Nether Ghost Fires were swallowed up by more than half and transported into the Gate of Abi, actually becoming the power for the operation of the Gate of Abi.

"Gate of Abi, it's actually the Gate of Abi! Impossible, impossible! Isn't the Yellow Springs Map severely damaged? How could it be restored to this extent, actually opening the Gate of Abi?"

The Ghost Emperor saw that his Nether Ghost Fire was swallowed by more than half by a gate, and immediately his whole body shook, standing up from the Gloomy Soul Throne.

His shock was no small matter.

He was an elder of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect. Back then, under the Yellow Springs Great Emperor, he deeply knew the power of the Gate of Abi. If this Gate of Abi could truly be exerted to the extreme, let alone his magic power at the tenth level of supernatural powers, even magic power at the Longevity Secret Realm level could be swallowed at will.

Moreover, when the boundless Abi demonic aura surged out, it was enough to turn the entire human world into an Abi hell, letting boundless living beings endure eternal and uninterrupted pain.

Past memories suddenly struck. The Ghost Emperor remembered the terrifying methods of the Yellow Springs Great Emperor back then, and his face was a bit gloomy. He was attacking the successor of the Yellow Springs Great Emperor now.

"Hmph, the Yellow Springs Great Emperor is dead, so what if he is a successor? Kill him if I want to. I will be the Sect Master myself!"

At this moment, the Ghost Emperor flicked his hand, and a black light like a long snake darted out and slashed over.

That black light was a flying sword of the Ghost Emperor, called the Ghost Snake Sword, which was a supreme-grade treasure with great power.

A snake is a slippery and agile thing.

A ghost is ethereal, formless, and traceless.

Combined, to what extent was this supreme-grade treasure snake sword powerful? Although its power might not be as good as a low-grade Dao artifact, it was incredibly flexible, swimming around, even slipperier than a loach.

In an instant, this supreme-grade treasure rushed over, wanting to destroy Fang Han's flesh.

At the same time, many ghost-head command flags emerged from the Ghost Emperor's body, emitting powerful ghost aura. After these small black flags rushed out, they swept toward all directions, and even penetrated into the ground, seemingly wanting to guard against Fang Yu, Fang Han, Xingyun Xingyun Baobao, and others escaping.

This was an extremely powerful sealing divine ability, combined with magic treasures, arranged into the Myriad Ghost Soul-Locking Array. Once the array was completed, even cultivators of the same level could not escape, unless they were ancient giants of the Longevity Secret Realm.

"Junior Brother Fang Han, it seems I have to help you with a hand."

Fang Yu was originally standing still, but when he noticed that the Ghost Emperor was setting up an array while also unleashing the Ghost Snake Sword to slash over, he decided to take action.

There was no way, the Ghost Emperor's Ghost Snake Sword was a bit too slippery, slashing toward Fang Han one moment, and toward him the next. It attacked without a fixed target, and Fang Han's low-grade Dao artifact could not block it.

Thus, Fang Yu took a step in this void. The Great Void Technique appeared in this tiny void, and he arrived in front of the Ghost Snake Sword in an instant.

No matter how slippery, agile, ethereal, and hard to describe the Ghost Snake Sword was, once it arrived in front of Fang Yu, it could no longer escape. Fang Yu directly reached out and grabbed it. The Profound Yellow Heaven-Covering Hand, permeated with the Profound Yellow Mother Qi Root, grabbed this supreme-grade treasure flying sword, and with a pinch, all the spiritual sense on this supreme-grade treasure flying sword was wiped out.
