Chapter 373: Ghostly Fire

In Youzhou, the Tou Gui was currently fighting with a group of people whose eyes looked dark red. These people were extremely strange, and dark red Ghost Fire would emerge from their bodies from time to time.

Anyone burned by this Ghost Fire, whether it was the shadow ghosts under her command or other Ghost-riders attracted by the Ghost Fire, would instantly lose control. Even before long, they would turn around and attack their own personnel.

However, what was even worse was that gathered here, besides the Ghost-riders and ordinary people of the Ghost Tower, there were also a large number of personnel from other sects and aristocratic families.

Besides this, two Sages in the sky were also ready to take down that cluster of dark red Ghost Fire at any time. At this time, these Sages had already reacted that it would not be easy to complete the task assigned by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in three days.

Although the number of Ghosts in the human world now was much higher than in the past, it had not yet reached the level of being everywhere, and among these Ghosts, how many possessed the ability to control Ghost Fire?

It was absolutely impossible for their thirty-plus people to find enough of this type of Ghost in the human world. By then, they would either face the anger of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, or they would only be able to go to the underworld to hunt for Ghosts at risk.

No matter which situation it was, for them, it would undoubtedly be a terrible choice. So now they were frantically mobilizing their disciples to search for relevant Ghosts everywhere, and they themselves would also take action immediately after receiving relevant news to avoid delaying time.

As luck would have it, just when the Twin Ghosts and the Tou Gui joined forces to find the power of Shousui, they were discovered by those sect and aristocratic family disciples, eventually attracting these two Sages.

"Young lady, this Ghost is probably not easy to deal with. How about leaving it to this old man to handle?"

"Pah, you old scoundrel, you really know how to take advantage of loopholes!"

"This young lady, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. I am willing to exchange two pieces of Red Blood Jade, so how about handing this Ghost over to me!"

"..."

However, the two of them remembered that the Tou Gui was also a person standing beside the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, so now they just wanted to persuade the Tou Gui.

"This Ghost is something that my Master personally instructed must be obtained!"

The Tou Gui waved her hand and directly controlled the shadow power to forcibly isolate a large area around her. A large number of thick, rotten roots extended from the shadows, intertwining and wrapping together.

At the same time, the Tou Gui looked at these two Sages with a face as cold as frost and warned them very coldly.

"You can't say it like that. This old man wanting this Ghost is also to offer it to the Great Sage Equaling Heaven!"

"Yeah, young lady, why do you have to compete with us?"

And these two Sages also felt quite unhappy in their hearts. In their view, this was absolutely a person deliberately arranged by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven to hunt for Ghosts in the human world first, just to make them unable to complete the task.

"Do you want to take action?"

Noticing the change in the aura of the two, the Tou Gui glared, and subsequently, countless thin threads spread from her side toward all directions. If they really wanted to take action, she would absolutely not show any mercy.

"Don't dare, don't dare, hehe, we don't dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head!"

"How about this, we will help you, young lady, and you can also say a few good words for us in front of the Great Sage, how about that?"

Hearing the Tou Gui's words, the tone of these two Sages changed immediately. They hadn't forgotten the incident where they almost offended those two maids and almost had bad luck.

So they changed the subject and immediately took action against the surrounded puppet!

The strength of these two was not bad either. One of them reached out, and a huge ghost claw fell toward the ground, looking fierce and unusually sharp.

The other threw out a white bone skull, and instantly, eerie green fire surged wildly from the skull. At the same time, the skull also rapidly grew larger and bit downward.

Clearly, both of them wanted to be the first to take down this Ghost. Unfortunately, just at this moment, a large amount of dark red Ghost Fire suddenly emerged from a charred corpse in the back.

This cluster of dark red Ghost Fire shot directly into the sky and instantly collided with that ghost claw and the skull.

"Boom~"

Following closely, the scene they expected of the Ghost being crushed did not appear. On the contrary, these dark red Ghost Fires began to spread and expand wildly on the ghost claw and the skull!

In this process, this kind of dark red Ghost Fire became more and more vigorous and more and more powerful!

"What the hell is this?!"

"Damn it! Get away from me!"

"Why is it not listening to orders!"

"..."

Very quickly, both the ghost claw and the skull were completely shrouded in this dark red Ghost Fire, and the two Sages' faces became extremely ugly, because they had completely lost contact with these two things.

That piece of dark red Ghost Fire on the ground became more vigorous after rapidly devouring these two things, covering the mountains and plains in dark red, as if it were a burning sea of blood!

"This Ghost's ability is special. Anyone who gets close will instantly lose their mind and become a puppet, and it can also devour various Ghost powers to turn them into its own nutrients!"

"You doing this will only bring trouble to the Master. If you take action again at will, don't blame me for being impolite!"

At this time, the Tou Gui's face became increasingly ugly. She spoke to these two Sages very impolitely with a cold little face, which made the two Sages' faces turn blue.

Originally, they intended to take action directly to buy favor with the other party. Unexpectedly, they ended up losing more than they gained. Now, not only did they fail to buy favor, but they actually increased the other party's resentment!

Just when they wanted to open their mouths to say something, suddenly a long spear tore through space and rushed directly from afar.

The moment this long spear appeared, everyone felt a tightness in their hearts, as if a knife was hanging over their heads, and this knife could cut off their heads at any time!

What was even more terrifying was that the dark red Ghost Fire that had been expanding and growing instantly began to shrink, and a large number of people who had been eroded and controlled had their heads explode directly at this moment!

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Whether it was Ghost-riders or ordinary people, and even the Ghost itself, they suffered unimaginable destructive power at this moment. Their bodies seemed to be detonated from the inside out and turned into fragments.

Only clusters of dark red Ghost Fire remained after they exploded. Subsequently, these dark red Ghost Fires that had lost their bodies quickly turned into streaks of firelight and began to gather toward a certain direction.

The whole process was fast to the extreme. From the appearance of the long spear to the gathering of the Ghost Fire, it was only a short moment, and the first round of confrontation had already ended.

In the night sky, the strong and oppressive body of the Infinite Heavenly Ghost stepped through the air directly. Everything around it was quite distorted with it as the center.

Its pace was not fast, but every step it took could cover a very long distance. Clearly, it was at the edge of the sky a moment ago, but the next moment it appeared before everyone's eyes.

"This, this..."

Seeing the appearance of the Infinite Heavenly Ghost, the two Sages felt a dry mouth and tongue immediately. They never expected that a tiny Ghost would actually make that Great Sage Equaling Heaven arrange for such a person to take action.

"Click, click, click."

However, without waiting for them to speak, the Infinite Heavenly Ghost had already begun to take action. Seeing it raise its hand slightly, its five fingers formed a bowl shape, and subsequently, it buckled downward toward the bottom.

Instantly, the surrounding space began to twist and bend. Everyone around was subjected to an irresistible force at this moment and was forcibly pushed away.

Even the isolation wall formed by the Tou Gui using the Ghost Domain just now was the same. Between heaven and earth, it was as if an invisible barrier had been added that completely shrouded this area.

"Hit!"

Following closely, the Infinite Heavenly Ghost reached out, and that long spear appeared in its hand. Subsequently, its cold face lifted slightly, and it opened its mouth to spit out these two words. Subsequently, the long spear in its hand was thrown out instantly and shot toward the place completely shrouded by the dark red Ghost Fire in front.

"Boom!"

The next moment, power that was incomparably vast exploded directly in this space. The earth shook, the mountains swayed, the soil and stones cracked, and infinite Ghost Fire shot into the sky. A large number of human figures and Ghosts were turned into ashes in this impact!

The entire shrouded space turned directly into chaos, as if all the power inside was in a mess.

However, no matter how earth-shattering it was inside, the people watching from the outside could not feel a single bit of fluctuation.

Such a strange scene left everyone dumbfounded. The two Sages were already starting to rejoice in their hearts at this time. Fortunately, they held back at that time; otherwise, they would be the ones inside enduring that terrifying power that was almost world-destroying!

With this person's means, wanting to catch them or imprison them was simply an easy thing. After all, for the other party, controlling space and destroying heaven and earth was just a casual matter! ===== CHAPTER 374 =====
