Zhao Feng's palm suddenly turned bright red, and then he slapped Hu Jiu hard from a distance.
Although there was some distance between them, a Blood Handprint appeared directly on Hu Jiu's body.
Hu Jiu glanced at it, then flicked it lightly with his finger.
The Blood Handprint vanished instantly, leaving not a trace.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Feng's eyes widened instantly. He was quite confident in his own strength, so why did the Blood Handprint disappear in less than a second?
Glancing at the shocked Zhao Feng and the furious Corpse Demon, Hu Jiu felt increasingly relaxed.
These two are indeed quite strong among ordinary Ghost Tamers, but they are no match for Hu Jiu.
Moreover, these two seem to lack combat experience. Although it's unclear what their purpose is in guarding this door, it's baffling where they get the confidence to hold it with such poor skills.
Perhaps they have other backup plans or allies?
"Tell me where this is! Don't worry, if you tell the truth, I'll spare your lives!"
As Hu Jiu spoke, he fell back to the ground from mid-air.
The soil on the ground was still trying to move and converge towards him, but he stomped it down and kept it still.
Several sharp bone spikes sprouted from the Corpse Demon's body, and it lunged at Hu Jiu.
Hu Jiu was incredibly agile and fast; the Corpse Demon couldn't even touch him.
"Like a hedgehog, it's truly ugly!"
Hu Jiu casually broke off a bone spike from under the Corpse Demon and used it against it.
When the Corpse Demon saw the bone spikes coming towards him, he was initially unconcerned. After all, the bone spikes grew from his body, and even if they pierced back into him, he wouldn't be injured; they would simply be absorbed back into his body.
But when the bone spur in Hu Jiu's hand really got close, the Corpse Demon sensed the danger.
The detached bone spur seemed to be empowered by some strange Supernatural force, carrying a violent and destructive aura.
The Corpse Demon had no choice but to hastily adjust the bone spikes on its body to block in front of it.
The bone spike in Hu Jiu's hand, imbued with a ferocious, supernatural Supernatural, struck the Corpse Demon.
The Corpse Demon's body was sent flying and crashed into a tomb.
Hu Jiu looked at the hastily crafted weapon in his hand and nodded in satisfaction.
As expected of me, even something I casually create is so elegant, beautiful, and powerful.
Suddenly, several more Blood Handprints crawled onto Hu Jiu's body.
Hu Jiu nonchalantly removed the handprints from his body one by one, while adding a sharp comment, "This thing is hardly more sophisticated than children playing house."
Zhao Feng looked at Hu Jiu's smile, which seemed both mocking and pleased, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
He had always prided himself on his own strength, but he never expected that someone who just randomly ran out from behind the door could easily suppress his and the Corpse Demon's combined attack!
"Is this the powerful figure living behind the door?"
Zhao Feng felt a slight bitterness in his mouth, perhaps because he hadn't made any progress in a long time and was stuck in the past, basking in his glorious achievements.
Hu Jiu didn't care about Zhao Feng's emo mood. Seeing him distracted, he immediately punched him.
Zhao Feng saw Hu Jiu's attack, his pupils suddenly contracted, but he had no time to react and made no effective evasive maneuvers.
Fortunately, the Corpse Demon intervened in time, shoving the stunned Zhao Feng aside.
Hu Jiu's punch missed Zhao Feng's vital points.
Immediately afterwards, Hu Jiu casually slapped the Corpse Demon again. The Corpse Demon staggered back dozens of steps before finally stopping, completely dazed from the blow.
Zhao Feng quickly ran over and helped the Corpse Demon up. The two stood together, watching Hu Jiu warily.
They had long since abandoned any contempt they might have felt.
Hu Jiu openly observed them. He didn't go all out for the time being, but if he waited any longer and lost his patience, he might not hold back!
The offensive momentum reversed, and this time Hu Jiu took the initiative to attack.
Zhao Feng and the Corpse Demon stood ready, with the Corpse Demon holding the line in front and Zhao Feng providing support from the rear. Their actions were quite coordinated, achieving a result greater than the sum of its parts.
Hu Jiu skillfully controlled the rhythm of the attacks, occasionally poking small holes in them, his expression gradually twisting into a gleeful grotesque grin.
The Corpse Demon and Zhao Feng grew increasingly terrified as the fight progressed. They exchanged a glance, their faces filled with fear.
Zhao Feng said, "If this stalemate continues, it will be disadvantageous for us. Corpse Demon, go and awaken that one!"
The Corpse Demon nodded, and a long bone spur grew from its tailbone, piercing directly into a Tombstone in front of a grave.
The tomb immediately reacted, and a burst of decaying green light shot into the sky.
"You're dead!" the Corpse Demon roared.
Hu Jiu kicked him in the chest, sending him flying more than ten meters away, then asked with an innocent look:
"I just want to ask where this is? Why do you have to make such a fuss?"
Zhao Feng stopped the Corpse Demon from unleashing a torrent of curses, "Let him be arrogant for a little while longer. Once that ghost comes out, he definitely won't be able to escape..."
Before Zhao Feng could finish speaking, Hu Jiu pinned down the Fierce Ghost that was about to crawl out of its grave.
With a powerful pull of his hands, he sent the Fierce Ghost back to the grave.
To calm the Fierce Ghost spirit and allow it to sleep more peacefully, Hu Jiu deliberately cast dozens of curses on it to suppress its activity.
So after the Fierce Ghost was stuffed back into the grave, it remained very quiet, as if it were asleep.
Hu Jiu was extremely satisfied and turned to look at Zhao Feng and the Corpse Demon.
"Don't come any closer!" Zhao Feng retreated in fear.
The Corpse Demon also remained silent, his face grim.
"I'll ask you one more time, where exactly is this place? And what is this door for!" Hu Jiu issued his final ultimatum.
Before Zhao Feng could speak, the Corpse Demon interrupted, "Sorry, no comment!"
Zhao Feng was completely devastated.
The Corpse Demon wasn't finished yet, continuing, "It's best not to ask about things you shouldn't know, or you might bring about your own death!"
"Whoever you are, you must follow the rules here! Now, if you are willing to undergo my inspection and accept the curse binding you, you can leave safely; otherwise, you can expect to be trapped here and die."
Before Hu Jiu could react, Zhao Feng was shocked. He shoved the Corpse Demon and angrily said, "Are you fucking crazy? Where do you get the nerve to say such things to a powerful figure!"
Zhao Feng's admiration for the strong was on full display at this moment.
But the Corpse Demon insisted, "Rules are rules, and no one is allowed to break them!"
"What if the other party is a vengeful Fierce Ghost with intelligence? If it escapes from here and comes into the real world, have you considered how serious the consequences would be?"
Zhao Feng was getting increasingly frustrated. Why was the Corpse Demon so inflexible?
"You saw it yourself, even the two of us combined can't beat him! If he wants to leave, do you think you can stop him? There's no need to throw our lives away for nothing!"
This time, Zhao Feng will absolutely not give in to the Corpse Demon's whims; no amount of rules can compare to the importance of his life!
