Chapter 224: Battle with the Ghost King
Tianxin Sea.
Pei Cangli stood on the shore of Tianxin Sea, the sea breeze whistling and blowing her hair, her eyes were as firm as a rock, beside her were Si Yunzhou, Xuan Shang and Qing Ming.
The four figures appear small yet powerful in front of the vast and turbulent Tianxin Sea.
They know that in the depths of this mysterious sea, what awaits them will be a life-and-death duel with the person behind the scenes.
The waters of Tianxin Sea are a deep blue, and the waves hit the rocks on the shore like angry beasts, splashing high water.
The sea breeze is mixed with a salty taste, as if it is a warning from this ancient sea to newcomers.
The long whip in Pei Cangli's hand trembled slightly, not because of fear, but because of excitement and anticipation for the upcoming battle.
Si Yunzhou clenched the sword in his hand. The sword shone with a mysterious light. It was the magic sword that Pei Cangli obtained in the Youguang Secret Realm.
Xuan Shang was wearing a black robe that fluttered in the wind. His eyes were calm and deep, as unfathomable as the sea of Heaven and Earth.
Qing Ming stretched his muscles. His strong body contained infinite explosive power, and the two swords beside him emitted a cold light.
They walked slowly along the edge of Tianxin Sea. The sea water gradually covered their ankles, and the sand and stones under their feet slid with their steps.
Suddenly, a huge whirlpool emerged on the sea surface, the sea water spun wildly like a spiral, and a black figure slowly rose from the center of the whirlpool.
Someone appeared, his whole body shrouded in dark mist, with only a pair of blood-red eyes showing, emitting terrifying malice.
The three of them looked at Xuan Shang. It seemed that this cultivator who was undergoing the tribulation was a cultivator from their ghost clan.
Xuan Shang seemed to have known this person's identity for a long time, and called out indifferently, "Master, you have actually fallen to this level."
"Xuan Shang, I have taught you for so many years, but you, a bunch of ignorant people, actually dare to come to Tianxin Sea to challenge us."
The voice of the previous Ghost King echoed on the sea like thunder, causing ripples on the water.
Pei Cangli took a step forward and pointed his long whip at the Ghost King, "Today is the day you die. The sins you have committed against this world will be repaid here."
After that, Pei Cangli took the lead in launching the attack. Her figure was as fast as lightning, and she lightly touched the sea surface, and rushed towards the Ghost King in a few rises and falls.
He swung the long whip in his hand, bringing out sharp spiritual energy, which slashed towards the Ghost King like a substance.
The Ghost King sneered and waved out a black light curtain, easily blocking Pei Cangli's attack.
The long whip collided with the light curtain, making a sharp hissing sound, and the splashing sea water turned into powder the moment the two came into contact.
Si Yunzhou seized the opportunity, raised his sword and rushed forward. Several sword lights flashed, and a dazzling light burst out. A huge lightning bolt struck down from the clouds and blasted towards the Ghost King.
Wherever the lightning passed, the air was burned and distorted.
Qing Ming was not idle either. He rushed towards the villain like a gust of wind, waving his two swords in a flash of light and shadow. Each sword contained a tremendous force and attacked the Ghost King's vital points.
Xuan Shang stayed behind and kept a close eye on other places to ensure that they were protected from sneak attacks by others during the battle.
The Ghost King remained calm in the face of the attack from three people.
He suddenly opened his arms, and a powerful dark force surged out of his body, forming a huge black sphere.
The black sphere expanded rapidly, absorbing all the attacks from Pei Cangli, Si Yunzhou and Qing Ming, and then exploded.
The huge impact force knocked the three people flying backwards and created huge waves on the sea.
Pei Cangli steadied his body in mid-air, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
She wiped off the blood and her eyes became more determined.
"Everyone be careful, let's attack together!" She shouted and rushed towards the Ghost King again.
Si Yunzhou and Qingming looked at each other, nodded, and rushed forward. This time, their attack was more tight and orderly.
Pei Cangli's whip skills became more sophisticated, and each whip was like weaving a fine net, trying to trap the villain.
Si Yunzhou's swordsmanship became more and more powerful. Sword lights intertwined and attacked the Ghost King from different directions.
Qing Ming used his speed advantage to continuously attack the Ghost King. His two swords fell like raindrops, leaving the Ghost King no chance to breathe.
The Ghost King felt the pressure, and his dark power began to become violent.
He moved quickly, moving freely among the attacks of the three men and launching counterattacks from time to time.
Each of his attacks carried a breath of destruction, and black energy shot towards the three people like poisonous arrows.
Although Pei Cangli and others were careful to avoid the attacks, they were still constantly injured.
Pei Cangli was extremely worried when he saw Si Yunzhou and Qingming were injured.
She decided to use the water healing power of the Bixu Jue, which could greatly heal everyone's injuries and help them replenish their spiritual power.
As Pei Cangli made her hand gestures, the surrounding sea water began to swirl around her, forming a huge blue vortex.
Si Yunzhou and Qingming felt a powerful force coming from behind them, and they knew that it was Pei Cangli helping them.
Their strength was instantly increased and their attacks became more ferocious.
There is a sacred power contained in Si Yunzhou's sword energy, which can cause greater damage to the Ghost King's dark power.
As Pei Cangli comprehended the Bixu Jue, she became more unpredictable, as if the natural forces of the entire Tianxin Sea were under her control.
A raging fire ignited on Qingming's two swords, and the power of each sword was increased several times.
Under the joint attack of the three, the Ghost King finally began to show signs of fatigue.
His dark power was gradually suppressed, and the black mist on his body began to thin.
He roared angrily, trying to launch a final counterattack. He gathered all his strength together and rushed towards Pei Cangli and others.
Seeing this, Xuan Shang stepped forward.
He stood in front of Pei Cangli and the others, muttering something, using the ghost clan's secret technique to launch a black vortex and rush towards the Ghost King.
For his master, Xuan Shang's last kindness to him was gone the moment he pulled him back from the Evil Demon Gorge.
Especially later on, as he continued to investigate, he found out that the Ghost King had hidden so many bad things from him.
Now, he was seeing him off for the last time, and it could be regarded as a token of the bond between master and disciple.
The forces of both sides collided in the center of Tianxin Sea, making a deafening noise.
A strong light instantly illuminated the entire Tianxin Sea, and the light lasted for a long time before gradually dissipating.
When the light disappeared, the Ghost King's figure had disappeared, and Pei Cangli and others fell exhausted on the sea.
The waves of Tianxin Sea gradually subsided, as if this fierce battle had never happened.
But Pei Cangli could clearly feel that the spiritual energy of the Cangyun Realm had recovered a little.
After all, the spiritual power of a cultivator who is undergoing tribulation can be fed back to the Cang Yun Realm after his death, which can prolong the vitality of the Cang Yun Realm for a while.
But this is just the beginning. There are more monks who are undergoing tribulation hiding behind.
