Chapter 720 - 718: Among the Ghosts of the Mortal Realm, She Reigns Supreme
In the center of Spirit Island Lake, Ghost Qi erupted like a volcano.
Having lost the control of the Sealing Array, this group of ghosts was utterly liberated.
Nearly tens of thousands of ghosts permeated the air.
Yu Xiu frowned deeply, a trace of apprehension appearing on his calm face.
Back then, the sealing of these hundreds of thousands of ghosts was not by his own power.
It was because Yu Xiu deceived this group of ghosts.
He made them willingly accept being sealed.
Otherwise, with his strength alone, how could he seal nearly a hundred thousand ghosts?
Yu Xiu’s gaze turned towards the deepest part of the lake.
There lay the most powerful ghost.
A ghost genuinely at the level of an Immortal Ghost.
That ghost had yet to make its presence known.
Now, all the ghosts have been released.
The Sealing Array is broken, but the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array still remains.
With the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array, suppress this group of malicious ghosts.
This Supreme Ghost-Refining Array naturally has the power to suppress ghosts.
Relying on the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array should be able to suppress this group of ghosts.
As for Mo Lin, he had just forcefully activated the Celestial Monarch Xu’s inherited power and had currently lost his combat ability.
Behind Mo Lin, a dense mass of black,
all were ghosts.
These ghosts were much stronger than they were three years ago.
"Holy shit..."
In the distance, Hou Hongfang exclaimed.
"Is this guy even human?"
"I’ve heard of ghost-controlling, but never of controlling tens of thousands of ghosts."
Witnessing this scene was utterly shocking.
It was as if stepping onto an ancient battlefield.
This was no longer merely a battle, but a confrontation on a battlefield level.
Even though Hou Hongfang possessed the Copper Coins, he wouldn’t dare claim to be a match for Mo Lin with certainty.
"Is this the once number one in the East District?
With the power of one, alongside the Evil Buddha, Yellow Springs Realm, Great Spirit Mountain Evil Spirit.
Is this his true power?"
"Elder Qu, what is this method of controlling thousands of ghosts?" Hou Hongfang queried the Elder Qu nearby.
Elder Qu’s eyes were unwaveringly fixed on Mo Lin, his pupils dilating slightly, his eyes filled only with astonishment.
"Never heard of anyone who could control thousands of ghosts."
Qu Qing was a Four Lives Reincarnation Immortal.
Even he didn’t know anyone could control tens of thousands of ghosts.
This was entirely beyond human capabilities.
The earliest Ghost-Controlling Technique originated from the Jiangzhou People.
At that time, it was merely controlling a few ghosts; never had anyone controlled tens of thousands.
Chu Xing’s body gradually enlarged, leading the charge towards Yu Xiu, terrifying Ghost Qi expanding in the air.
Bing Yu and the other ghosts followed closely behind.
Though the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array suppressed the cultivation of these ghosts, it didn’t diminish their ferocity.
A massive wave of ghosts, like a black cloud, surged towards Yu Xiu, challenging the suppression of the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array.
"Supreme Ghost-Refining Array, suppress them for me."
Yu Xiu roared, his hands weaving through the air like an elderly man practicing Tai Chi in the park.
With Yu Xiu’s movements, the ground array abruptly spun.
"Rustle, rustle..."
Flames erupted from the ground.
The figure of Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad in the sky also moved.
The whisk in Lord Lao Zi’s hand swayed, and flames on the ground swirled like fiery serpents.
The fiery serpents lunged towards Chu Xing and the other ghosts, confronting them directly.
"Sizzle, sizzle."
The sound of raw meat roasting echoed in the air.
The Supreme Ghost-Refining Array was designed specifically to counter ghosts.
Enduring the suppression of the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array yielded no advantage.
A large area of Ghost Qi was refined by the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array.
Yu Xiu had set up the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array with the entire Spirit Island as its foundation.
The power was naturally formidable.
Yu Xiu, with the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array, actually managed to suppress the ghosts.
The ghosts that hadn’t emerged from the lake’s depths were once more suppressed by the fiery serpents.
Mo Lin frowned slightly; he certainly couldn’t just watch his ghosts be refined, so he prepared to forcibly intervene.
At this moment, a reprimanding voice shattered the silence.
"Presumptuous..."
The deafening voice reverberated throughout Spirit Island.
The deepest, most dreadful Ghost Qi from the lake bottom erupted.
A red figure emerged.
It was a stunningly beautiful woman, like a fairy stepping out from a painting.
Her Ghost Qi was restrained, merely glancing at her wouldn’t reveal she was a ghost at all.
The moment Yu Xiu saw this ghost, a trace of apprehension appeared on his face.
This ghost possessed Immortal Ghost Skill.
The female ghost seemed unaffected by the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array and directly walked towards Mo Lin.
"Thud."
The female ghost knelt directly before Mo Lin.
Upon witnessing this scene, Yu Xiu’s eyes betrayed an unwillingness deep inside.
Why would such a formidable ghost kneel to Mo Lin?
Why so willingly acknowledge a human as their master?
The female ghost knelt in front of Mo Lin.
This female ghost was indeed Chen Xi, whom Mo Lin had cultivated to become a Yin Deity.
She had even genuinely obtained a divine plaque as a ghost.
Now, she was even stronger than three years ago.
"My lord, I have three wrongs."
"Two years ago, when you fought Huang Shang and were captured, I failed to stop it, and feel truly ashamed."
"One year ago, when the Yellow Springs Realm invaded Beihai, in that battle, I was defeated by Huang Shang, failing to live up to your cultivation."
"At the Ten Thousand Peaks Mountain, you fought against the Three Immortals, Two Buddhas, one ghost, and one spirit.
I could not extricate myself to assist you, deserving ten thousand deaths."
Chen Xi pressed her forehead tightly against the ground, admitting her faults to Mo Lin.
As she kneeled, Chu Xing and the other ghosts followed suit, kneeling as well.
Chen Xi apologized to Mo Lin, utterly disregarding Yu Xiu.
She didn’t even consider this place a battlefield.
Yu Xiu refrained from acting; his Supreme Ghost-Refining Array was blocked by Chen Xi.
This ghost before him was no ordinary ghost.
Her name was Chen Xi.
The first in the human realm to possess a divine plaque, the first ghost to become a Yin Deity.
She pioneered the Yin Deity path for ghosts, allowing all subsequent ghosts to become Yin Deities.
Among human realm ghosts, she was revered.
"My lord, I am ashamed you suffered."
Chen Xi kept her head lowered, not daring to meet Mo Lin’s gaze, displaying utmost humility.
To the outsider, she might very well seem like a Little Ghost!
"Rise." Mo Lin waved a hand.
Following Mo Lin’s command, Chen Xi slowly stood up.
Her right hand rested on Mo Lin’s shoulder.
A vast torrent of Ghost Qi surged into Mo Lin’s body.
This Ghost Qi rapidly healed Mo Lin’s injuries.
The previously exhausted Mo Lin gradually regained strength.
"Those who offend my lord shall die."
Chen Xi turned around and said coldly.
Her figure floated in the air.
Terrifying Ghost Qi swelled within Chen Xi’s body, her figure rapidly expanding.
Until she matched the size of Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad’s figure, as if her body was a thirty-three-story building.
This was an extreme display of power.
Ordinary ghosts might also be able to enlarge their bodies, but doing so would consume a massive amount of Ghost Qi, which was not only unhelpful but also harmful.
But Chen Xi was different, seeming to possess an endless supply of Ghost Qi.
"Supreme Ghost-Refining Array?"
Chen Xi coldly said as she looked at Spirit Island, "If you have the ability, then refine me."
With these words, Chen Xi’s palm went directly towards the figure of Lord Lao Zi.
This figure of Lord Lao Zi was the ultimate embodiment of the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array.
If the figure of Lord Lao Zi was extinguished, it would be equivalent to breaking the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array from the front.
Yu Xiu’s expression turned livid. There was no denying the Supreme Ghost-Refining Array suppressed ghosts.
But Chen Xi had entirely surpassed the scope of ghosts.
"Rumble..."
Chen Xi’s fist struck the figure of Lord Lao Zi.
The entire Spirit Island trembled.
