Chapter 5218: Battle Against the Ghost Horde Again

asically confirmed that he had indeed broken through the limit of the ninth layer of Foundation Establishment, but his breakthrough was not to become a Golden Core cultivator, but to break through to..."Brother Lu, if you don't make a move, we really can't hold on any longer." Luo Qing felt like a big net was closing in around them, with no way to escape.

The pressure at the level of realm was too heavy, pressing her to the point where she could barely breathe. The gap in strength was too great; at this time, she couldn't even mount a decent resistance.

The only one she could rely on was Lu Xia Tian. Although there had been no contact with him after he broke through the formation, she knew that as long as there was a sliver of possibility, Lu Xia Tian would never stand by and watch her and Xiang Qing Cheng fall into such danger.

"Do you have any reinforcements Come over and let this old man see what you've got. If they aren't men, this old man won't show mercy."

The Spirit King of the Reliquary laughed viciously. Having just broken free, he hadn't even had his fill of destroying a demon shadow, and now he needed some fresh flesh to sate his appetite.

Before the words of the Ghost Emperor in the Cauldron could even be uttered, his mouth opened wide, and two jets of glacial flames transformed into ghostly claws, reaching out towards the two individuals. He aimed to ensnare them completely in an instant.

As the Ghost Emperor of Lihu was about to succeed, two palm shadows appeared out of thin air, smashing the ghost claws with one strike and then flanking the Ghost Emperor from left and right.

Li Hu Ghost Emperor's heart skipped a beat. Faced with this sudden encirclement, he felt a sense of powerlessness in the face of it all.

As his instincts for danger flared, Lihu Ghost Emperor’s figure flickered and he instantly retreated from the two palms. However, the large number of low-ranked ghosts surrounding him were caught in the crossfire, being directly smashed into dust by the two strikes.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a thousand low-level demons perished.

"Your extraordinary skills are beyond those of an ordinary person. Reveal your name, so we can have a proper duel."

The Ghost Emperor's heart was filled with fear. The opponent appeared without warning, their attack was incredibly powerful. This made the Ghost Emperor want to figure out the opponent's true intentions while also buying time.

He had just escaped from the seal of his own grand formation. He had been sealed for too long, and while he was not weak in cultivation before, his current strength was greatly affected. The longer this dragged on, the more advantageous it would be for him.

“Want to know my name Survive first.” The flat voice echoed, and from the void a hand materialized, reaching for the Lihú Ghost Emperor’s face.

The strike was still formidable. The Lihu Ghost Emperor, feeling a tremor of fear in his heart, quickly retreated into the ranks of lower-ranking ghost creatures. Since he couldn't block it, he would have these useless trash expend their energy against the opponent first.

Even if these low-level demons were to die countless times, the Ghost Emperor wouldn't even bat an eyelid.

Where the giant passed, there was a trail of death and carnage. The strange force that had bound Xiang Qingcheng and Luocheng also dissipated, and the two regained their ability to move.

In the void, it was as if a curtain had been torn open, and Lu Xia Tian, clad in azure robes and with silver hair, emerged from within.

"Land Big Brother!"

"Brother Tian!"

At the same time that Luó Qīng and Xiàng Qīngchéng's faces lit up with joy, they couldn't help but feel a wave of worry.

The current situation is not very good, it's not that these Hellfire Ghost are particularly powerful. Even if there were more of them, under the Dragon Clan battle formation, they would be nothing to fear.

With the Dragon Clan army personally led by Lu Xia Tian, defeating the ghost horde wouldn't be a problem. What truly gave the two a headache was the eerie power in the Qu Po Bing Jing area that was always present. Since Lu Xia Tian had entered, he naturally couldn't avoid it.

"Don't worry, after I take the Xuan Tian Qing Qi, I'll lead you away. The Qu Po Bing Jing area can't hold me." Lu Xia Tian smiled confidently, reaching out with a flick of his hand, the ancient silvery glow of the Town Demon Tower directly enveloped the huge sphere that was dozens of acres in size, woven from ice mist and ghostly qi.

The next instant, it was completely absorbed into the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

"Want to leave Not so easy!" Lihu Ghost Emperor's face was ferocious. The other party not only repelled him, but also casually took away the most precious treasure here. Their personal combat strength was indeed strong, but wanting to single-handedly kill their way out of his ghost army was unrealistic.

There are also several old ghosts who have been sealed for many years like him in this large formation. Even two of them have higher cultivation levels than him. Xiang Qingcheng, Mo Ying, and Luo Qing were the first to attack the formation gate. Li Hu Ghost Emperor was the first to benefit from escaping the seal.

The original Lihu Ghost Emperor wanted to have all the benefits for himself. He thought it was his luck.

Even with his fortune disrupted and treasures stolen, the Ghost Emperor Lihu would rather give a discount to several old ghosts who are still not fully free from their seals than run away from Lu Xia Tian, this astonishingly powerful individual.

Even if a few old ghosts were released, the other party would at least have to show him some courtesy. After killing Lu Xiaoteng, Lihu Ghost Emperor thought that he could definitely benefit. If the other party really ran away, then there would be nothing left.

The ghost emperor, Li Hu, commanded his hordes to attack Lu Xiaoteng while chanting piercing and obscure ghost curses. He bit his teeth, a sharp pain surged through his tongue, and a streak of purplish-black blood shot out, twisting into an ice-blue flame shaped skull. It let out a ghastly cackle as it flew towards the distant sky.

Regardless of the other party's intentions, Lu Xia Tian would naturally not let them succeed easily. He merely extended his finger and fired off more than ten sword qi bursts.

These ice-blue flames formed a three-headed skull, clearly showing that the ghost emperor Lihu had anticipated Lu Xia Tian's interception.

Poof poof poof, in a hurried moment, Lu Xia Tian could only manage to extinguish most of them. The sword energy dissipated just like that. At this time, six or seven skeleton phantoms still disappeared into the void.

"This old ghost is trying to release more demons, perhaps even a powerful old ghost at the Spirit Body Realm." Xiang Qingcheng warned.

Lu Xiaitian nodded. The Lihu Ghost King was more cunning than expected. He hadn't anticipated that the opponent had so many tricks up his sleeve.

More demonic entities were released, and it was already impossible to stop them. However, Lu Xiaotian wasn't afraid of the opponent either. Before coming here, he had refined a batch of improved Black Lotus Soul-Solidifying Pills. After further improvements, the efficacy of these pills had greatly increased.

Lu Xia Tian entering the area of the Qu Po Bing Jing was no longer a big problem. He could come and go as he pleased, stay or leave whenever he wanted. He wasn't that constrained, otherwise, facing Li Hu Ghost Emperor's schemes, he would have to do everything possible to relocate, so as not to fall into the encirclement.

"You two are fighting constantly. Why don't you go back first" Lu Xia Tian asked the two of them.

Please note that the content you provided was simply an empty paragraph tag. I have left it as is in English.

"No need for now, if things really get out of hand according to Big Brother Tian's assessment, then we can retreat back to the boundary. " Xiang Qingcheng shook her head, followed by a flash of light in her eyes, “If possible, let Wen Yan and the others out. Let's join forces and fight this Li Hu Ghost Emperor!"

“Good!” Lu Xia Tian nodded, then his mind moved, planning to let Xiang Qingcheng and Luo Qing also further train.

Previously, numerous powerful figures of the level of Great Luo Jinxian had besieged and killed the Ice Jiao and Xue Diao. While some were still recuperating from their injuries, many others had already fully recovered.

The original cultivation level of the Gui Huang of Li Hu was not weak. Having been sealed for too long, he has yet to recover to his peak period. Compared to the previous Bing Jiao and Xue Diao states, his condition is a bit better, but not much stronger.

With Wen Yan, Wen Tingdao, Heilong, Kongshan, Yanping, and more than ten other powerful Da Luo Jinxian-level experts assisting, it wouldn't be too much of a problem to at least contain the Lihu Ghost Emperor, let alone exterminate him.

Since the Lvyu Ghost Emperor was sealed for too long and his strength was greatly weakened, the other primordial spirit bodies, even if released, wouldn't be in much better shape. Under these circumstances, what does Lu Xia Tian have to fear

After Lu Xiaotian's breakthrough, his strength was in a period of rapid improvement. The others also needed to undergo sufficient tempering. Besides him, there was only one other Golden Gu Demon Monk who had reached the Nascent Soul stage. There were still too few powerful cultivators at this level.

“Unexpectedly, after just slaying one ice sculpture, I now have another opportunity to strike.” The black dragon, Di Zang Twelve-Winged Scorpion Demon, emerged from the ancient silver light and laughed heartily.

Before they came out, Lu Xia Tian had already divided the newly refined Black Lotus Consolidating Soul Pills into several portions for these people to take.

"This Ghost Emperor is yours now, be careful. He's just weak from being sealed for too long and hasn't been injured. At his peak, his strength should be a bit stronger than the previous Snow Sculpture and Ice Flood Dragon." Lu Xia Tian reminded.

"Rest assured, Dragon Master. We've grown stronger compared to before." Ying Xuan Ming chuckled, already eager to join the fray alongside Hei Long, Xie Mo, Kong Shan, and others as the first wave of attackers.

"Such audacity." The eyes of the Lihu Ghost Emperor were filled with a heavy, menacing aura. His reaction was similar to that of the snow sculpture and ice flood dragon before him. To be provoked by a group of beings they usually saw as ants was an insult no matter what. Even though some of these younger generations were incredibly rare dragons.

"Stop that silver-haired man for me. After I kill these little ones of the Great Luo Jinxian level, we'll share the benefits after I deal with the ghosts above the Jinxian realm, and then we'll besiege the silver-haired man together."

The Lich King immediately made arrangements, ordering his clan to stop Lu Xia Tian at all costs. He then took the opportunity to kill people like Ying Xuan Ming himself.

Although these fellows' realms are a bit lower, with so many of them gathered together, they are still a great tonic. It should be enough for him to recover to his peak state and even have some left over. As for the promises made to subordinates at the Golden Immortal level and above, distributing some leftovers would be more than enough.

As long as his strength returns to its peak, and he kills Lu Xia Tian, this strongman, who would dare say anything more

The Lyre Kettle Ghost Emperor's calculations were undoubtedly well-laid, but he had never encountered dragons like Ying Xuanming. He only regarded them as junior cultivators of the Daluo Jinxian level. It was only when they truly clashed that he realized how terribly mistaken his perception was.

With ease, he dispelled the attacks of Ying Xuanming and Kong Shan, the first wave. He even suppressed several leaders directly. However, before he could unleash his full power, Wen Tingdao, Wen Yan, Zi Luo, and others launched a second wave of attacks.

As for those powerful cultivators who have reached the realm of slaying primordial spirits, they were already adept at it. They even had considerable confidence in their abilities. This confidence played a significant role when resisting the pressure exerted by the Ghost Emperor of Lihu.

And at this moment, the low-grade Lihu Yanghui gathered like mountains and seas, forming a monstrous ghost flame mountain that surged like a tsunami. The oppressive ghostly qi condensed into tangible form. Lu Xiaoteng's body seemed incredibly thin in the face of this tide of evil spirits.

However, such a massive attack in front of Lu XiaTian seemed to be more about pomp and circumstance than substance. It lacked cohesion.

Lu XiaTian drew his sword and slashed through the void, instantly splitting open a path in the surging ice-blue ghost flames that resembled a tsunami.

Lu Xia Tian stepped out into the void, stepping from this opening into the dense throng of ghostly creatures.

With a flick of his sleeve, the air crackled with lightning and thunder, and a biting wind howled. The Five Thunder Arrows, unused for a long time, materialized within the dancing flames of electricity.

In the sky, heavy clouds hung low. As far as the eye could see, lightning flashed and snakes danced through the air, a strong wind howled, and torrential rain poured down.

Sword intent was manifested within the wind and snow, and the Five Thunder Sword materialized within the flickering flames of electricity.

What appears to be the simplest celestial phenomenon, Lu Xia Tian has already imbued it with his own cultivated divine powers. A scene of wind and rain, yet unlike any worldly storm.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared as torrential rain poured down. These seemingly formidable ghosts or wisps of smoke were either vaporized by the strikes or riddled with holes by the onslaught of raindrops, turning into sieves in an instant.

A horde of ghosts, driven to frenzy by the threat of death, either cowered in fear or launched themselves desperately at Lu Xia Tian who stood motionless in the air.

Groups of fiery Qi pots erupted, spewing fireballs and black spears that pierced through Lu Xia Tian. However, Lu Xia Tian's body seemed impervious to harm. Although riddled with wounds, as soon as their attacks paused even for a moment, his injuries would visibly heal.

"How is that possible"

“This guy can’t be killed!”

A wave of unprecedented panic swept through the horde of ghosts. Faced with such an immortal enemy, and with the ghosts falling at an astonishing rate under the onslaught of wind, rain, and thunder, how could they not be terrified.

"Don't be afraid of him, the opponent is just within this storm, simply using the water element law's Water Illusion Art. A indiscriminate attack can force the opponent's true form out."

>

At this time, the battle between Heilong, Wen Tingdao, and Lihu Ghost Emperor had reached a stalemate. The furious Lihu Ghost Emperor roared angrily.

Not to mention his army of ghost creatures, even he himself, facing Lu Xiaoteng's methods like this, might not be able to force out Lu Xiaoteng's true form.

This person's cultivation of law power not only had more types than ordinary people, but also possessed unparalleled mastery. They could even seamlessly integrate the different laws and principles together. Their primordial spirit was so powerful that it was beyond his reach, allowing them to transform their law power into these diverse celestial phenomena. With his cultivation base, he appeared flawless in every way.

For the first time, Li Hu Gu Huang felt a flicker of fear towards Lu Xia Tian. Where were those damned old ghosts Why hadn't they arrived yet At this moment, Li Hu Gu Huang was being held back by a group of juniors. Even if he didn't want to admit it, the truth was cold and harsh.

Many celestial beings at the level of Da Luo Jinxian cursed the Lyre Vase Ghost Emperor in their hearts. In such a vast and stormy region, the other party hid their figure, where could they force Lu Xia Tian out

Logically, this barrage of attacks should have forced Lu Xia Tian's true form to appear if they only targeted his location. However, the opponent is still nowhere to be seen, clearly indicating that the attack power was insufficient.

The other party may still be able to reposition themselves. They now not only don't know the opponent's location, but also how strong an attack it would take to force them out.

The Overlord of the Black Vase spoke with ease, but actually doing it was far from simple. It was something even he couldn't accomplish, yet he dared to demand it from them. He was out of his mind! However, these thoughts could only be kept to oneself; no one dared utter a word at this moment.
