Chapter 593: The Great Battle Ends

This process seemed long, but in reality, from the moment Lin Feng struck to the moment this Ghost Immortal fell, it had only been a fleeting instant.

The seemingly long process was only because Lin Feng's speed was truly too fast; in the blink of an eye, he had unleashed countless sword moves, and the terrifying power, like a violent storm, poured onto his opponent without a moment's pause.

So much so that the entire process left the other Ghost Immortal unable to formulate any response strategy at all. It was only after Lin Feng struck down this Ghost Immortal that the other suddenly realized just how terrifying the enemy before them truly was!

The strength of such an enemy had likely already reached the level of an Ancient Source Ghost Immortal; it was simply not something an ordinary Ghost Immortal could resist!

Upon realizing this, this Ghost Immortal no longer had any courage to resist, but instead quickly began to employ methods to abandon this body and let their consciousness escape.

It must be said that this fellow's reaction was indeed fast enough; just as Lin Feng was charging toward them, they happened to begin self-destructing!

"Boom—"

The terrifying power of a Ghost Immortal abandoning everything to desperately self-destruct goes without saying. Even though Lin Feng's physique was strong to the extreme, in an instant, his skin was torn and flesh mangled, with dense wounds nearly tearing him completely apart.

Fortunately, the power of the Tou Gui was strong enough; as long as his body was not completely burned to ashes, it could heal rapidly, and the erosion of the opponent's Ghostly power was even less of a problem.

The only trouble was that the Jiuyou Lianyu was impacted by the opponent's self-destruction, causing the Evil Fire to expand instantly. The Jiuyou Lianyu itself was also cracked by the self-destruction, and a large amount of Evil Fire splashed out from these fissures, instantly burning everything nearby to ashes.

"Cough, cough."

Lin Feng, his injuries recovered, swept his gaze over the surroundings, then once again used the Tou Gui's Fate Thread ability to begin searching for the opponent's traces.

He did not believe for a moment that the opponent would truly self-destruct; the Ghost Immortals of this world, one and all, were extremely selfish and insidious beings!

"Hmph, still trying to escape!"

Aided by the guidance of the Fate Thread, Lin Feng quickly found clues. The moment the opponent self-destructed, they had used some method to transfer their consciousness onto a hidden body.

But the opponent could never have imagined that Lin Feng's ability was so terrifying that he could actually ignore all obstacles to find them.

Deep within the Ghost Immortal cave dwelling of a mid-sized sect in the Cangming Jie, several coffins were placed, and inside one of them lay a Half-Immortal Puppet body.

Suddenly, this Half-Immortal Puppet body sat up abruptly, then began to inhale frantically. The cost of such a life-saving method for a Ghost Immortal was extremely huge!

Now, their Ghost Immortal strength no longer existed, and because they had used a method similar to possession, their control over this physical body was insufficient; they would need time to adapt.

If they encountered some mortal enemies during this period, the outcome could be imagined...

"Click, click."

Simply moving their body, this Ghost Immortal then stood up from the coffin with a gloomy face.

"That person must be the thief previously wanted by Da Heitian!"

"I just didn't expect that in such a short time, the opponent's strength would become so terrifying. As expected, they harbor a great secret... Unfortunately, hmph, once I release this news, I will definitely make them suffer!"

Self-destructing their main body was a heart-wrenching matter for them; this hatred had already reached the level of a life-and-death feud. How could they possibly keep the secret?

However, at the very next moment, a terrifying vibration suddenly erupted, followed immediately by the sound of dense spatial shattering reaching their ears.

But before they could even realize what was happening, a large black void hole appeared above this cave dwelling, and then an indescribably terrifying giant mouth emerged from the void hole, directly swallowing the cave dwelling along with the mountain!

"Who is it! How dare you harm my sect members!"

"Good thief! You're courting death!"

This sect was not large, but it had three Ghost Immortals. At this moment, Lin Feng had killed his way directly into the sect, immediately attracting the attention of the other two Ghost Immortals.

It was just that before they had time to act, Lin Feng had swallowed that cave dwelling in one gulp, then turned and disappeared. It was simply unrealistic for those two Ghost Immortals to try to keep him.

A moment later, Lin Feng returned to the inner space of the Gluttonous Ghost. This time, he had killed four Ghost Immortals in one go. For him, the price paid was not high, but with four Ghost Immortals dead at once, it would inevitably cause a monstrous wave inside and outside Zhao Guo.

Therefore, he had to immediately bury these Ghost Immortal corpses and transform them into combat power in his hands, otherwise, he would likely face sieges from all sides.

…………

At the border of Zhao Guo, a battle of Ghost Immortal level was no different from a terrifying disaster that destroyed the heavens and extinguished the earth for existences below the level of Divine Humans.

Even though Lin Feng kept the main location of the battle in the sky throughout the process, the power of a Ghost Immortal was so terrifying that even an inadvertent move had an extremely terrifying impact on the ground below.

Especially since the Jiuyou Lianyu cracked due to the Ghost Immortal's self-destruction at the end, causing Evil Fire to leak out. Although the vast majority of the Evil Fire burned the sky, a portion still burned the ground.

This immediately burned several mountain ranges into pitch black. If not for the Diyi Yanluowang retrieving those Evil Fires in time, it would likely have caused the Evil Fire to spread, and who knows how many people would have been burned to death.

The common people of Zhao Guo and several surrounding countries basically saw the battle scene in the sky. Although they did not know the specific details, they understood a thing or two following the final result.

As for the Divine Humans of the various royal families who knew the inside story better, they became terrified, because if those four Ghost Immortals had won, they would inevitably have attacked the Paper Soldier army of Zhao Guo.

But at present, there was no movement at all; instead, that Diyi Yanluowang who had suddenly appeared was high above, retrieving the scattered Evil Fire, which already explained the final result of the battle.

As for the fate of the other Ghost Immortals, they no longer dared to imagine, or rather, could not face it.

No one could have expected that a battle they thought was a certain victory before it started would have such a reversal. The opponent could actually defeat four Ghost Immortals? The strength of that Spirit-Controlling King was terrifying to this extent; what would be the fate of them, the rebels?

However, these royal Divine Humans would not have to worry about this for long, because the Paper Soldier army had already begun to move toward various countries. Carrying the prestige of a great victory, there was no need for any nonsense or persuasion to surrender; wherever the Paper Soldier army went, city after city opened their gates and surrendered voluntarily.

Faced with absolute power and the true fear in their hearts, not many people would insist on so-called loyalty, and even if they were willing to insist, so what?

After all, even ants cling to life; if you don't want to live, others do!

Therefore, the Paper Soldier army did not stop and quickly occupied several surrounding human countries. Just like what was done within Zhao Guo, those who did not resist could live, and those who resisted would face the fate of having their families wiped out.

In just a few days, the territory and population controlled by Lin Feng had increased several times over, and the number of corpses that could be collected every day was close to ten thousand! ===== CHAPTER 594 =====
