Chapter 3257 Lesser Fullness (The Strange Fog)
"Damn it, what the hell are these things!" A disciple of the Ghost Clan was caught off guard and had his arm slashed by the bone claw of a Blood Bone Wraith.
Black mist swirled around the wound, and the flesh began to rot at a visible rate.
"Be careful, their claws are highly poisonous and can also corrode spiritual energy!" Elder Ghost Eye warned sharply.
Two beams of gray light shot from his eyes, instantly petrifying the two vengeful ghosts that pounced on him.
But the next moment, the petrified vengeful ghost disintegrated into rubble, only to reform itself not far away.
"Ancestor, this can't go on!"
"Our spiritual energy is being used up too much!" Mei Zhentian shouted anxiously to the Ghost Ancestor as he wielded a ghost-headed broadsword, cleaving the vengeful ghost in two.
The Ghost Ancestor's face was ashen.
He naturally realized how troublesome these things were.
With a single palm strike, a massive black palm print crushed seven or eight vengeful ghosts into dust.
But those blood and bones quickly coalesced and regenerated.
He could clearly sense that his grandson Mei Qianxiao's aura was rapidly moving deeper into the area.
Moreover, his breathing was getting weaker and weaker, which clearly indicated that he was in great danger.
He doesn't have time to waste here!
"Overlord Body!" Ghost Ancestor roared.
The Elder with the Overlord Body responded, "Yes, Ancestor!"
The Elder of the Overlord Body had bulging muscles all over his body, and his skin had a bronze color, exuding a powerful aura.
The Ghostly Ancestor commanded: "You have the strongest physical body, clear the way for us!"
"Yes, Ancestor!" Elder Ba Ti roared with earth-shattering fury.
His fists were covered by a thick layer of black armor as he charged toward the area where the vengeful spirits were most concentrated.
"Overlord Shattering Star Fist!"
He threw a punch, and the violent force of the punch shattered the air in front of him.
He blasted more than a dozen blood-bone vengeful ghosts to pieces with a single punch.
Relying on his incredibly strong physical body, he actually managed to carve a bloody path through the fearless horde of vengeful ghosts.
"Quickly, keep up!" the Ghost Ancestor shouted, leading everyone to follow closely behind.
Hu Xiaoman and his two companions, who were hiding in the distance, witnessed this entire scene.
Yang Rui transmitted his thoughts, his voice tinged with astonishment: "My god, this big guy is pretty fierce."
"This physical strength is probably almost on par with a level six demonic beast."
Hu Xiaoman also transmitted his voice: "The Ghostly Clan's Overlord Elder specializes in physical techniques. It is said that he once tore apart a demon beast in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm with his bare hands."
"When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation."
Hua Nian's gaze, however, fell upon the constantly reborn blood and bone vengeful ghosts.
She spoke to the two of them telepathically: "Brother Yang Rui, Miss, look at those vengeful ghosts. They seem to be reborn even faster than before."
At this moment, Yang Rui and Hu Xiaoman also realized that something was wrong.
The time it took for the vengeful spirits that were shattered by the Elder of the Overlord to reform was significantly shortened.
Moreover, the blood on their bodies seemed to be even more intense, and their aura was even stronger.
Hu Xiaoman pondered for a moment before saying, "They are absorbing the blood and energy that the Overlord Elder dissipated during the battle!"
Elder Ba Ti is a body cultivator; every punch he throws is accompanied by a powerful surge of qi and blood.
This vital energy and blood is the best tonic for vengeful ghosts!
The more fiercely the Elder of the Overlord Body killed, the more of his blood and energy dissipated, making these vengeful ghosts stronger and faster at rebirth.
This is a vicious cycle!
Just then, the Overlord Elder in the battlefield also noticed something was wrong.
He felt his strength rapidly draining away, while the vengeful spirits around him seemed to be on steroids, becoming increasingly frenzied.
Taking advantage of the moment he threw a punch, a vengeful ghost silently pounced on him from behind, its sharp bone claws digging fiercely into his back.
"Tsk-!"
Even skin as tough as steel was torn open with a deep gash that exposed bone!
"Ah...!" Elder Ba Ti roared in pain and smashed the vengeful ghost to pieces with a backhand elbow.
But many more vengeful spirits smelled the blood, and like sharks that have caught a whiff of blood, they surged toward him from all directions.
A vengeful ghost grabbed his leg, opened its bony mouth, and bit down hard.
Another vengeful spirit jumped onto his shoulder, its bone claws plunging straight into his eye sockets.
"what--!"
The Overlord Elder let out a shrill scream.
His formidable physical defenses were finally breached by the endless stream of vengeful spirits.
The appearance of a gap means total collapse.
In the blink of an eye, his imposing body was engulfed by dozens of blood-bone vengeful ghosts.
The sounds of tearing, cracking bones, and flesh being devoured were clearly audible to everyone, sending chills down their spines.
"Overlord Body!" Ghost Ancestor's eyes widened in fury.
He tried to turn back to save them, but was entangled by even more vengeful ghosts.
Just a few breaths later, the horde of vengeful spirits in that area dispersed.
Where on the ground is the figure of the Overlord Elder?
All that remained were pools of blood that were even redder and thicker.
And several broken finger bones that gleamed with the luster of black armor.
The vengeful spirits that had devoured his flesh and blood grew larger, and the scarlet flames in their eye sockets burned even more fiercely.
His aura had actually reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm!
All the ghosts felt a chill run through them.
Even the elder with the strongest physical body, the Overlord, ended up in such a state. If they were to be entangled with him, their fate would only be more tragic.
"Go!" Ghost Ancestor's eyes flashed with endless grief and killing intent, but he ultimately suppressed the thought of avenging the elder.
He led the remaining people, stepping on the path that the Overlord Elder had carved out with his life, and broke out of the void.
Hu Xiaoman and the other two watched in the shadows, their hearts pounding with fear.
"This is terrible..." Yang Rui said telepathically, "This Blood Demon Cave is too terrifying."
"This is only the first level, and we've already lost an elder in the Nascent Soul stage."
Hu Xiaoman remained silent, her gaze sweeping over the vengeful ghosts that had grown stronger after devouring the Overlord Elder.
I have gained a new understanding of the danger level of this Blood Demon Cave.
She withdrew her gaze and whispered to the two of them, "Come on, hurry up and follow."
The three of them traversed the cave at top speed, following behind the ghostly clan.
Ahead, the ghostly beings passed through the cavern inhabited by blood-bone vengeful spirits, and a misty area appeared ahead.
The fog was grayish-white, extremely dense, so thick that one could not see their own hand in front of their face, and it could greatly suppress the probing of divine sense.
As soon as the Ghost Ancestor and his group stepped inside, they felt as if they had entered a world completely isolated from the outside world.
"Everyone be careful, there's something strange about this fog!" Elder Ghost Eye's usually sharp eyes had become somewhat cloudy.
He cautiously reminded everyone.
Just then, a faint whisper came from all directions, reaching everyone's ears.
Why did you betray me...?
"Father, Mother, your child is unfilial..."
"Senior brother, if you hadn't stolen my opportunity back then, I wouldn't have ended up like this..."
"You good-for-nothing, you'll never be as good as your brother..."
The whispers seemed to resonate directly in the depths of one's soul, stirring up the deepest fears, regrets, jealousy, and resentment within each person.
A young disciple of the Ghost Clan suddenly burst into tears, clutching his head: "It was my fault! I shouldn't have peeked at my senior sister taking a bath! I'm not human..."
Another middle-aged cultivator, his eyes bloodshot, drew his longsword and pointed it at his companion, roaring, "It's you! It's you!"
"Back in the secret realm, you ambushed me from behind and stole that thousand-year-old Blood Spirit Mushroom!"
"Nonsense!"
"You are crazy!"
In an instant, the Ghost Clan's ranks were thrown into chaos.
Many people began to blame each other, and some even turned on each other with swords.
"Shut up, all of you!" the Ghost Ancestor roared, his voice filled with divine power.
Like a thunderclap, it temporarily jolted everyone awake from their illusion.
But his own face looked unusually pale.
Just now, he also heard his grandson Mei Qianxiao crying and asking him why he hadn't come to save him sooner.
