Sending Ghosts Home: The Heartless Old Devil's Boxed Meal

Boom!--

Boom!--

One by one, sound barriers appeared and vibrated in the night sky, then quickly faded away as the White Bone Thousand Soul Chariot rose out of the light barrier.

The wind howled, and the surrounding scenery quickly blurred and receded.

A shield of Escape Light Soul Power, formed from the bone tips around the chariot that had been refined for countless years, emerged and extended backward in an oval teardrop shape.

The White Bone Thousand Soul Chariot's speed was astonishing, surpassing that of an ordinary fourth-tier mid-level spirit boat and reaching the speed of a high-level spirit boat.

On the soul carriage, Chen Dengming's white hair fluttered as he looked at the two bound and restrained Ghost Bride.

The two Ghost Bride, bound like turtle shells, were now filled with shock and anger, looking up at him.

Chen Dengming's eyes gleamed with a strange light, but he had no interest in personally interrogating the two Ghost Bride for the time being, and instead spoke to the Little Array Spirit.

"Ling'er, take them all into the Soul House. I'll interrogate them personally later!"

The Little Array Spirit responded and, pulling Red Rhombus along, quickly dragged both Ghost Bride into the Soul House.

The driver in front, Zhu Xun, a ghostly figure, Zhu Xun his lips and made a 'hiss' sound. He turned around to look at Chen Dengming, revealing a grimacing smile, and stammered.

"Brother Daoist, judge me, I will judge."

Before he could finish speaking, saliva was already drooling from his gaping maw, which crackled with dark lightning.

Chen Dengming was taken aback, then quickly understood, staring at Zhu Xun and laughing, "Well done, Old Zhu, your memory has returned a bit, and you're already thinking about lustful things now that you're well-fed and clothed?"

"Fine, you can have these two Ghost Bride. Once you break through to the Ghost King realm, I'll make the decision for you!"

Upon hearing that he needed to become a ghost king to obtain two Ghost Bride, Zhu Xun immediately wore a melancholy expression and became quite depressed.

He did aspire to become a Ghost King, but even after cultivating the <Fierce Ghost Yin Thunder Technique>, he had not yet broken through to the Golden Core Perfection, let alone condense Ghost Infant and become a Ghost King.

"Don't rush, don't panic!"

Chen Dengming's steady voice came from behind. Although his tone was calm, it contained a kind of steady confidence. He said lightly, "You have the talent of Fierce Ghost. You just haven't accumulated enough experience yet."

Once this matter is over, I will have the Starfall Ghost Lord guide you to the Below the Yin Spring; that will be your fortuitous opportunity.

"Once you get there, you must not only help me find Ling'er's two souls and Xu Wei's whereabouts, but also seize the opportunity to become the Ghost King."

Ghost cultivators naturally need to cultivate in the Ghost Cultivation Holy Land to more easily break through their limitations.

Is there any place more suitable for ghost cultivators than the Below the Yin Spring Underworld, filled with fertile Yin soil and the Water of the Underworld River Styx?

"Bang!"

The Fierce Ghost Zhu Xun raised his head and let out an invigorating ghostly howl, though it didn't sound very fierce, more like the barking of a dog. The already subdued Thousand Souls of White Bones, however, found it very pleasing and barked wildly along with it, their speed increasing dramatically.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the White Bone Thousand Soul Chariot had already flown nearly 1,500 miles, reaching five times the speed of sound, but this was not the chariot's maximum speed.

The soul chariot seemed to get more and more energetic as it ran, its speed increasing until the Soul Power of the thousand souls was exhausted, at which point it would gradually slow down.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, if enough sacred artifacts such as the Water of the Underworld River are prepared as provisions for the vehicle, its potential will be limitless.

Two thousand miles away.

Within a gloomy and treacherous mountain ravine, a giant deer with eyes gleaming with malevolent light furiously thrashed its four hooves, repeatedly and violently ramming into a light Formation that rose up in the ravine. The violent roar caused the surrounding mountain walls to crack and rocks to fall off with a clatter, while the light array rippled and undulated in circles.

Within the Formation's light barrier, the Ruthless Old Devil Tao Tian's Nascent Soul aura weakened, his expression gloomy as he stared intently at the evil giant deer opposite him.

Even knowing the situation was critical, the only thing to do was to remain calm and quickly prepare for an escape.

"This giant deer must be the offspring of Bai Ze and the Gou Ran, which were sealed away by the Giant Deer Dao Lord in the past. It is born with divine power but is also lewd. Even now that it has become a spirit, its divine nature is still formidable. In my current Nascent Soul form, it is not advisable for me to fight this beast to the death."

The Ruthless Old Devil pondered, his hands moving swiftly as he pulled out array plates from his Storage Bag and arranged them on the ground in a formation resembling an army formation.

Fortunately, he had decisively abandoned his Physical Body Nascent Soul to escape with his Storage Bag.

This personal Storage Bag all sorts of life-saving trump cards he had prepared for himself over the years.

One example is the [Landing as Mountain Formation], an instantaneous protective Formation that he presented to resist the Giant Deer.

This Formation can be quickly Formation up for protection. It is simple and quick to operate, avoiding the damage caused by the continuous battle between the Nascent Soul and the Giant Deer. Not only would it deplete the precious Nascent Soul essence of the Nascent Soul, but it would also affect future Body Seizing and cultivation.

The array plate taken out at this moment was the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Formation.

Using this formation, he could escape to the nearest Ten Thousand Devils Blood Sacrifice Dao Domain Formation to hide and slowly recover.

This is also the Devil Palace's guarantee for the four Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Demonic Sect who came to fight in the Four Domains.

Even if the enemy dares to pursue him to the Ten Thousand Devils Blood Sacrifice Dao Domain, he can use the Devil Fetus within the domain to awaken the Demon Lord and protect himself.

"Fighting Longevity Lord! You are the first person to have forced me to this point."

The Ruthless Old Devil quickly set up the Formation and took out the sacrificial blood offerings he had prepared beforehand from his Storage Bag.

Looking back at the giant deer still fiercely attacking the Formation outside, his eyes were sinister and ruthless. He said, "Beast, if your master hadn't died at the hands of the Blood God, I would repay this humiliation tenfold when I recover!"

"Oh? Is that so? There's no time like the present, so let's not wait for another day."

Just then, a powerful Spiritual Energy invaded through the Formation and directly entered the mind of the Ruthless Old Devil.

"What!?"

The Ruthless Old Devil's heart trembled, and his expression changed drastically.

The moment Nascent Soul nascent soul soared into the air, it saw a chariot drawn by thousands of vengeful spirits, tearing through the clouds and dragging a rolling chariot across the dark night Sky Dome outside the ravine. Its momentum was as fierce as rolling thunder, resounding from east to south.

The skeletal chariot was driven by fierce demons, their bodies wreathed in black lightning that roared with terrifying force. Behind it stood a skeletal throne supported by countless skeletal claws, a throne that exuded an aura of solemnity that intimidated even ghosts and demons.

A tall, imposing figure sat as still as a mountain on the white bone throne, his white hair flying wildly at his temples. He looked down at the figure from above, his eyes gleaming with a chilling silver light, a slight smile playing on his lips, exuding an aura of fear and dread.

"Fighting Longevity Lord!!"

The Ruthless Old Devil trembled inwardly. Now that he only possessed the Nascent Soul stage, seeing Chen Dengming's figure, he felt an almost instinctive and uncontrollable chill and fear, his heart pounding with fear.

The chill had barely formed when the strange force that invaded the mind surged forth, striking like a heavy hammer.

He quickly channeled his limited demonic power to resist, transforming it into insidious Seven Emotions Demon Flowers and Six Desires Demon Leaves, attempting to corrupt and taint the strange power that Chen Dengming had invaded.

However, Chen Dengming's eyes shone brightly with silver light, and immediately, countless Silver Dao Script appeared between his eyes, densely packed and swirling around his pupils. These were none other than the Silver Dao Script he had previously absorbed into his Sea of Consciousness.

Although these Daoist inscriptions have not yet been refined into pure Daoist power and cannot be freely mobilized, it is precisely because of this that they are difficult for enemies to defeat.

Instantly, the power that had invaded the heart of the Ruthless Old Devil also revealed streaks of silver light, and even mysterious Daoist runes appeared, like shields protecting the invading force.

Despite their insidious nature, the Seven Emotions Demon Flower and the Six Desires Demon Leaf crumbled the moment they collided with the Dao runes. Their insidious corrosive power at most dimmed the Dao runes, causing a loss of Human Immortal Way Power, but they could not break through the defenses.

Damn it!

The Ruthless Old Devil sensed something was wrong, and a feeling of weakness, despair, and even surrender arose in his mind.

He knew this was the fear and anxiety that came from Physical Body destroyed and only the Nascent Soul remaining, and he knew he had to eliminate it immediately.

However, no sooner had this thought arisen than Silver Light appeared in his mind, and a huge, magnificent figure came crashing down from the sky, roaring at him and stirring up a storm that raged through his soul.

The wind was truly like a mountain being pushed aside, rocks being turned, and pines and bamboos being toppled; its fierce and awe-inspiring force was astonishing.

The Ruthless Old Devil's mind went blank, his Nascent Soul flickered with spiritual light, as if he were in a frozen state, and he slowly fell down.

At the same time, Chen Dengming gave the order, and the White Bone Thousand Soul Chariot charged forward with the force of thunder.

Countless wronged souls pulling the carts at the front, like a horde of crazed demons, rushed down violently and crashed heavily into the Formation covering the ravine.

Boom!

Upon landing, the mountain formation trembled, revealing the immense power of the formation, as heavy as a massive mountain peak. It shook violently from the impact, and fine cracks appeared on the light screen, with glittering traces of light emerging from the cracks, but it did not completely collapse.

Seeing this, the giant deer raised its face, snorted, and looked disdainful, scoffing as it stomped and rubbed its hooves on the ground.

"This Formation is not bad."

Chen Dengming looked surprised and raised his palm.

A pair of gloves embroidered with five Golden Dragon encircling its surface shimmered with spiritual light, exuding an aura of dominance.

"Roar--"

Five golden dragons emerged from between his palms, each dragon head lifelike, majestic and solemn, imbued with the divine souls of five Flood Dragons, their aura astonishing.

However, when Silver Light appeared on Chen Dengming's palms, his muscles bulged, and some of his limbs entered a state of human-immortal transformation, he became even more majestic and domineering, as if he were about to transform into an ancient Ancient Immortal who could tear dragons and capture phoenixes with a single hand, and his aura rose wildly.

The five Golden Dragons were intimidated by this even stronger domineering aura, and their eyes showed submission, while their domineering aura became even more intense.

Five Dragon Overlord Hand!

Roar!!

The moment the palm landed, a series of Dragon's Roar suddenly exploded in the air!

A tremendous roar echoed wildly through the mountain valleys as five domineering Golden Dragon roared out and bombarded the Formation barrier.

Chulong!!

With a deafening roar, the Formation barrier cracked open with even more fissures before exploding violently.

At this moment, the Ruthless Old Devil within the Formation was also suddenly awakened from his state of mental tremor.

Seeing the Formation broken by the opponent's palm, he was horrified and immediately rushed towards the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Formation that had been set up to the side.

"Quickly, quickly—sacrifice all for me! Activate!"

Faced with a life-or-death crisis and in dire straits, the Ruthless Old Devil had no time to embed the spirit crystals again. He recklessly channeled his Nascent Soul Power into the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Formation.

The Formation gradually revealed shimmering spiritual light, radiating rays of light. The blood offerings placed within it rapidly oozed blood, which flowed along the lines of spiritual light, bursting forth with streaks of bloody light.

The Ruthless Old Devil's Nascent Soul immediately escaped into it. Just as the Formation was about to collapse, Chen Dengming's immense aura rushed in, his figure blurring as he headed straight for him.

The Ruthless Old Devil immediately shouted, "Wait! Wait! Fighting Longevity Lord, let's talk this out!!"

Seeing that Chen Dengming remained unmoved, he roared angrily, and his Storage Bag suddenly flew out of the formation. Two beams of spiritual light shot out from the bag and headed straight for Chen Dengming. The two fourth-order Law Treasure in the spiritual light immediately exploded, emitting a strong sense of danger.

'Sucker Punch'!

Chen Dengming frowned slightly, when suddenly a flash of light appeared beside him, and his figure swept past in a flash.

Yao Guang!

The mother blade of the Seven Star Glazed Mother-Child Blade remained in place, engulfed by the two fourth-tier Law Treasure that exploded with a deafening roar.

The blade flashed with afterimages, carrying Chen Dengming's figure as it rushed through the center of the explosion's shockwave at an extremely fast speed, approaching the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Formation that was about to be activated.

Within the Formation, crimson light surged like a tide, gradually condensing into a semi-circular teleportation array barrier.

Within the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Formation, the nascent Nascent Soul of the Ruthless Old Devil would rapidly fade with the blood-red light and be teleported away.

He watched in horror as Chen Dengming passed through the explosion zone and appeared outside the teleportation array.

At this moment, the teleportation array had already been activated, and the other party was obviously too late, unless they dared to teleport with him to the Ten Thousand Devils Blood Sacrifice Dao Domain, which was an important base for the extraterrestrial cultivators.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and was about to let out a resentful laugh.

Chen Dengming, however, flashed a dark light in his hand, revealing a large black bow. In the instant he drew the bow, a golden soul arrow instantly materialized.

"Don't rush off! Let your fellow villager see you off!"

Above the arrow, the resentful face of Tan Xiangkun, the Three Saints Palace Saint Son, appeared.

The Ruthless Old Devil was terrified and roared, "No! No, no! Don't come any closer!!"

Crackling--

Without uttering a word, Chen Dengming suddenly twisted the bowstring once, and a dazzling silver-white Human Immortal Way Power shot into the Nascent Soul Soul Arrow like an arc of electricity.

Instantly, the entire Soul Arrow released a blinding Silver Light, and tiny cracks appeared on its surface. Tan Xiangkun let out a shrill scream.

"Demon Lord! Save me!!"

The Ruthless Old Devil let out a desperate roar and immediately mobilized his Nascent Soul Power to set up a defense in front of him.

Whoosh--

The Soul Arrow flashed with Silver Light, transforming into a dazzling silver rainbow that instantly tore through the blood curtain and entered the teleportation array. Like a hot knife through butter, it easily ripped through the defenses erected in front of the Ruthless Old Devil, piercing through his Nascent Soul.

Boom--

The teleportation array trembled violently, then the blood curtain collapsed, and the Ruthless Old Devil and the soul arrow within it vanished together.

Thump thump thump--

On the ground, the array plates of the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Array rapidly exploded one by one, leaving behind a scene of devastation and ruin, turning into scorched earth, with some blood-stained gullies still emitting smoke.

Chen Dengming stood amidst the smoke of gunpowder, bow in hand, his brow furrowed. His upper body was robust and muscular, and his loose-fitting robe and trousers fluttered in the wind.

More than four thousand miles away.

Southern Regions.

A heavily fortified war fortress sits amidst towering mountains.

The environment here is beautiful and tranquil, with a rugged terrain, jagged rocks, and some peaks even reaching into the clouds.

The fortress was surrounded by rows of tall and sturdy walls, built of countless hard boulders. Each boulder was engraved with tiny runes, integrating Formation and protective power to form a powerful defensive line. Furthermore, the array's power could be used to create a deceptive and camouflaging effect.

This is a very important stronghold of the Myriad Demon Blood Sacrifice Dao Array in the extraterrestrial cultivator camp. It is heavily guarded, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and highly concealed. So far, it has not been discovered by the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

But today, suddenly, from a tall tower standing at the deepest part of the fortress, a violent surge of Spiritual Qi emanated, and a vast and dangerous Nascent Soul spiritual power rapidly spread out like a tide, shaking the entire fortress.

"What's going on? Such a commotion at the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice Tower, could it be that a fellow cultivator has teleported here using the Blood Sacrifice Demon Escape Array?"

The Nascent Soul True Lord was stationed at this important stronghold, was shocked and quickly flew out of his cave abode, heading towards the tower.

However, he had only approached the tower by a hundred feet when he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, sensing a strong sense of danger rapidly rising.

Almost at the same time.

Within the blood-red curtain inside the tower, the Nascent Soul of the Ruthless Old Devil, with a Nascent Soul Nascent Soul Soul Arrow embedded in his chest, emerged from the light of the teleportation array outlined by the blood-red spiritual light on the ground.

The moment the Ruthless Old Devil appeared, the Nascent Soul Soul Arrow embedded in his chest could no longer withstand the force, bursting forth with a burst of Silver Light and exploding.

An incredibly fierce and dangerous aura exploded forth.

A sudden silence fell over the tower.

Before the Ruthless Old Devil could even utter a scream of "no," his entire Nascent Soul exploded instantly amidst the Silver Light of the exploding Nascent Soul Soul Arrow.

Boom!--!

Suddenly, a thunderclap exploded, seemingly above the heads of all the cultivators in the fortress.

Endless, blinding light accompanied by a destructive shockwave instantly tore the fortress apart, threatening not only the blood pool beneath the fortress but also the flesh-and-blood Flesh and Blood Devil Fetus within it.

"No!"

The cry of "No!" came from the gaping mouth of the Nascent Soul True Lord guarding the fortress, but he began to retreat frantically.

A massive mushroom cloud immediately burst forth from the tower, tearing a huge hole in the sky and unleashing endless, rampant destruction.

The two Nascent Soul exploded together.

The destructive force transformed into an incomparably powerful and vast energy wave, spreading out in a ring shape in an instant. All the buildings along the way were torn apart like pieces of paper, lifted into the sky, and then disintegrated and turned into dust.

"Ahhh--"

The Nascent Soul Nascent Soul True Lord had suffered an undeserved calamity, screamed in terror. He pressed down with both hands, and a shimmering cauldron immediately spun out to protect him.

However, the next moment, a vast power, like a raging sea, engulfed him and swept away.

Many cultivators inside the fortress had not yet figured out what was happening when their bodies were reduced to ashes by the destructive shockwave.

Boom!--

At the base of the tower, the blood pool containing the protective Formation of the Flesh and Blood Devil Fetus could no longer hold, cracking inch by inch before exploding violently.

But in that instant, a terrifying and oppressive aura, accompanied by boundless rage, erupted from that Flesh and Blood Devil Fetus.

"Waste!!"

In a mountain valley four thousand miles away, Chen Dengming, holding a large bow, relaxed his brows and his expression softened.

He had sensed that Tan Xiangkun's soul arrow from the Three Saints Palace had completely broken free from its connection with the Soul-Reaping Bow Staff.

It seems that this Saint Son has finally returned to his hometown, completing the final task of 'sending off his fellow villagers' that he entrusted to him.

See someone off to the very end, or send a ghost off to their very door.

Since the Ruthless Old Devil is in such a hurry to go home, he should send the other party a ghost fellow villager. That ruthless old devil should be able to die with a smile on his face and rest in peace.

"I wonder where that Ruthless Old Devil is rushing back to. If he's going back to his lair, that'll be interesting. Alas, innocent people will be harmed! I can't bear to see that."

"The Soul-Locking Arrow, although it's a bit soul-destroying, is damn good!"

Chen Dengming lifted the large bow, feeling the trembling Nascent Soul Divine Soul of Tan Xiangkun and another Devil Cultivator Nascent Soul within it, and grinned with satisfaction.

His gaze shifted to the shattered fragments of the Law Treasure on the ground, among which was the mother blade of the Seven Star Glazed Mother-Child Blade, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

The next moment, his gaze sharpened as he looked at a Storage Bag lying quietly amidst the smoke of gunpowder.

"It's not like he's completely lost everything. Could this old ghost really be that poor, with only two fourth-tier Law Treasure?"
