In front of Ghost Suppressing City.
Ghost Suppressing City covered a radius of several hundred miles. The huge stone walls were hundreds of feet tall, and the original color of the city walls could be seen in rare places. After years of erosion, the entire city walls were covered in a layer of dark brown blood stains, and there were even some places that had formed blood-colored crystals.
On top of the city walls of an ancient city that was stained with blood, there were 1,000 Combat Masters standing guard every one mile apart. The top of the city walls exuded a murderous aura.
At this moment, nine almighty Venerables were standing on top of the city walls. The city walls were hundreds of feet tall, and they allowed one to see everything in their surroundings.
When Xiao Chen arrived at the top of the city walls, he could smell the stench of decay. The entire area in front of Ghost Suppressing City was empty, and the ground was littered with broken limbs, twisted bloody bones, and splattered bloody bones. Some of them had even decayed into a state of half-sand. It wouldn't be long before they were completely devoured.
In the distance, there was an endless mountain range that stretched as far as the eye could see. At this moment, there was no sign of the Ghost Clan in front of Ghost Suppressing City. Even the Thousand Ghosts Soul Devourer Formation was nowhere to be seen.
However, there were some large gray birds circling in the sky. From time to time, they would descend from the void, grab a rotten broken limb, and rise into the sky. They were extremely fast, and with a flap of their gray wings, they were already hundreds of feet away.
These were Yin Ghoul Doves, ferocious beasts unique to the Ghost Realm. They loved to eat rotten meat. The gray Yin Ghoul Doves circled in the sky, emitting a dense aura of death. They didn't dare to get too close to Ghost Suppressing City, but their eyes were filled with a strong desire to steal the corpses of the human Combat Masters.
"They're here!"
Suddenly, the Vajra Venerable One shouted, and the Ghost Qi in the Void Path flourished. In just a split second, the Ghost Qi in the air became dozens of times denser. The dense Ghost Qi was so cold that even the air became stagnant.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The sky became even darker, and the chill seeped into one's bones. The chill turned into ice shards that fell from the void.
"The ghost race is here. Get ready!"
On top of the city wall, groups of soldiers were waiting in formation. Giant crossbows were pulled taut by the soldiers, emitting a taut sound. Pitch-black arrows were shot towards the sky outside the city wall. These black arrows were specially made by Marquis Baize's troops. They were made from a material called the Ghost Stone, which was found on the Path of Void. It could cause the greatest amount of damage to the bodies of the Ghost Race. After all, some of the weaker Ghost Race soldiers didn't have solid bodies. Instead, they were very illusory.
Rumble!
In front of Ghost Suppressing City, there was a black ball of ink that was several hundred meters in size. The black mist roiled like a ball of thick ink, or like a ball of dried blood that had been ruined for a long time. It was filled with an incomparable coldness.
"Lowly human blood food, give up resisting. The great ghost race will grant you eternal life."
A gloomy voice rang out from the black mist. Suddenly, the black mist churned and two scarlet rays of light shot out.
"This is the Ghost Race's Black Flame Ghost Lord, a very difficult opponent."
The Vajra Venerable's voice sounded, but then he continued, "This Black Flame Ghost Lord has some karma with Clan Leader Xiao. The Scarlet Flame Ghost Lord that was killed by your Void Battleship a few days ago is his brother."
"Haha, the Baize Clan is a coward. You only know how to hide in the city and don't dare to come out to fight? Well, it's no wonder. The human race is a race that bullies the weak and fears the strong. Thousands of years ago, it was only by coincidence that they were able to steal the Desolate Land. What a joke!"
In the next moment, another ball of ghost mist rose. The black mist churned, and the scarlet rays of light pierced through the surging chilly air like lightning.
The void was filled with ghost Qi, and the Ghost Race's Combat Masters had already surrounded the city. There were at least two hundred thousand of them. These Combat Masters of the Ghost Race had green faces and fangs, and they were all strangely shaped. Some of them even had illusory bodies. Tens of thousands of Ghost Race soldiers gathered in one place. Dense ghost Qi filled the air, and ghostly shadows flickered. They all screamed in unison. The ghostly voices were ear-piercing and could pierce one's soul.
The dense ghost Qi rushed into the depths of the void and formed a huge ghost pillar. Its majestic aura pressed down on the giant city. Some of the weaker Combat Masters were instantly overwhelmed by the ghost Qi and fell to the ground.
"Damn it!"
"Chief He Ze, the Ghost Race has come to bully us. Why are we not fighting?" Venerable Jianfeng's eyes were filled with killing intent when he saw the Ghost Race's arrogance.
"It is not that I am unwilling to accept the challenge, but as soon as the combat masters of Baize Marquis leave the city, the Myriad Ghost Devourer Formation will be activated, trapping our combat masters within it. On the other hand, the Ghost Tribe will be like a tiger that has grown wings. With the rise and fall of the Myriad Ghost Devourer Formation, the fighting prowess of our human combat masters will plummet. In just the past five days, more than ten thousand combat masters of Baize Marquis have had their flesh and blood sucked dry by the Myriad Ghost Devourer Formation."
What!
"Damned ghost race!"
"This is also the reason why the three of us want to enter the formation and break it. If this continues, Marquis Baize's troops will be forcefully dragged down by them. If we don't accept the challenge, these Ghost Clan members will come to the city every day to challenge us," continued Venerable Vajra.
"The Ghost Race has the innate skill of Ghost Sound, which can pierce through the soul. The simultaneous howl of ten thousand Ghost Clan members is enough to severely injure the ordinary combat masters in the city. Therefore, it is difficult to defend the city."
What!
Even Xiao Chen was slightly shocked. These Ghost Race had forced their way to the front of Marquis Baize's troops, but they were already in an invincible position. On the other hand, Marquis Baize's troops would lose many combat masters every day. Even a tribe of tens of thousands of years would not have the confidence to suffer such losses.
Unless they could destroy the Ghost Race's formation. This was also the reason why Venerable He Ze invited them here.
"Chief He Ze, your troops have suppressed the Ghost Road for tens of thousands of years. You should have some understanding of the strength of the Ghost Race on the other side. How could they be defeated so quickly?" Venerable Feng Ying continued.
There was a bitter taste in Venerable Vajra's mouth. The combat beasts of Marquis Baize's troops had been guarding this Void Road for tens of thousands of years. Although they did not have the ability to completely suppress the Ghost Race Road, they had always firmly guarded the last line of defense and prevented the Ghost Race from stepping into the wasteland. However, this balance had been completely broken a few days ago.
"Because the Ghost Race on the other side is no longer the same Ghost Race tribe as before. After these days of investigation, there are many new faces in the Ghost Race on the other side. The number of Venerable Realm Ghost Race members has reached an astonishing eight. It should be the combined strength of three Ghost Race tribes."
Wu wu wu!
At this moment, the Ghost Qi in the Void Road was tumbling. The Ghost Sound Formation was crying and complaining, directly penetrating into the ears of the combat soldiers.
"Not good!
This is the Ghost Cry. The Ghost Race is working together to stimulate their innate skills. We must fight and suppress the Ghost Race. Otherwise, most of the combat soldiers will lose all their combat strength. "
"Demons and monsters, you want to attack the human race? Watch me destroy these ghosts!"
Venerable Jianfeng was the first to lose his composure. The Black Iron Sword on his back let out a buzzing sound, and a sword-light soared into the sky, streaking across the dark sky.
Rumble!
A black sword-light whizzed out, accompanied by the surging power of heaven and earth. There was a thunderous explosion in the void, and the vacuum was shattered as it slashed toward Ghost Lord Black Flame, who was outside Ghost Town.
The sound of the sword was like a dragon's roar, and the Sword Principle was sharp. Venerable Jianfeng had actually comprehended the true Sword Principle.
"Cowardly human, you are finally willing to come out and fight. Watch me turn you into food for my mouth."
In the face of Venerable Jianfeng's sword-light, a cloud of black fog was not afraid at all. It suddenly exploded and surrounded Venerable Jianfeng.
"The Ghost Race is rampant. Today, I will see what these ghosts are capable of."
As soon as he finished speaking, a pale yellow spirit sword appeared in Xue Feng's hand and struck down at the Ghost Race soldiers below.
Rumble!
A strike from a Venerable was a disaster for these ordinary Ghost Race soldiers. When Xue Feng's sword slashed down, thousands of ghosts were instantly melted into nothingness by the dense sword-light.
With every slash of Xue Feng's sword, hundreds and thousands of Ghost Race soldiers would disappear from this world. Instantly, the Ghost Race soldiers that were gathered together began to change their formation. They fled in all directions in a panic, and the Ghost Sound that they formed was also broken.
"Lowly human, as a Venerable, you dare to surround and kill the children of my race?"
Finally, a ghostly voice rang out in the dark void path again. A ten-meter-tall ghost with bull horns and two sharp fangs appeared from the darkness and charged at Xue Feng.
"The Ghost Race is cruel and inhumane. This Venerable is just sending them to reincarnation in advance." Xue Feng laughed loudly and met the Bull Horned Ghost Race soldier.
In the next moment, Wind Shadow Venerate and Ghost Slayer Venerate attacked. This was a tragic scene. However, Xiao Chen did not feel any pity. They were here to kill the Ghost Race in the first place, to resolve the crisis of the Void Road.
In the next moment, Xiao Chen also attacked. There were too many Ghost Race soldiers in front of him. The sky was filled with ghostly shadows. The attacks of the Venerables were like the arrival of the Death God to these Ghost Race soldiers. In just a short moment, tens of thousands of Ghost Race soldiers were slaughtered and turned into ghostly aura that filled the sky.
"Damn it! Where did so many human experts come from?!"
The Ghost Venerate, who was fighting with the Sword Venerate, had several sinister sword scars on its body, which gave off a sharp light. It was unable to heal its wounds. The Sword Venerate's attack power was extremely domineering. The Ghost Venerate had no way of defending against the black iron sword.
"Haha, Black Flame Old Ghost, you only allowed your Bloodflame Ghost Tribe to receive help from other races, but you didn't allow my Baize Marquis Tribe to invite so many human experts."
Looking at the Ghost Venerable's miserable appearance, the Supreme Elder of Baize Marquis Tribe, Venerable Bai Feng, finally released the pressure in his heart. He smashed the huge black iron rod in his hand outside the city!
"Kill!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The Ghost Race was also shocked when so many Venerables of the Human Race joined the battlefield. After all, Baize Marquis' troops were used to being cowards and hiding in the city every day. The sudden appearance of so many powerhouses caught them off guard, but the Venerables of the Ghost Race quickly reacted.
"Activate the formation and trap these human Venerables. Let the Ghost Race devour their flesh and blood!"
Finally, a cold voice resounded in the void. An illusory figure appeared in the sky, but no one could see his appearance clearly.
"Thousand Ghost Devouring Formation, activate!"
