Tooth Extraction Monster
At that moment, the starving ghost panicked!
The Commander was an invincible being second only to the Ghost Lord, capable of slaughtering even true gods... but the purple-skirted maiden from the Three Divine Continents had all her teeth pulled out!
The purple-skirted maiden I'm encountering now... could she be the same Tooth Extraction Monster that the Commander faced???
He panicked.
The purple-skirted maiden seemed quite excited at this moment, and said:
"Great, great! I wonder how his teeth compare to those of that old ghost last time..."
Upon hearing this, the starving ghost was filled with utter despair.
Damn, what Tooth Extraction Monster!
At that moment, he was filled with extreme fear. As a powerful ghost, he didn't even have the courage to resist, and he immediately knelt down!
"Tooth Extraction Monster... Oh no! Goddess, Goddess, spare me!"
"I'm a good ghost!!"
He looked at Ziling with a pleading expression!
But Ziling shook her head and said:
"I don't believe you! You just said you wanted to eat us!"
The starving ghost hurriedly said:
"No, no, no, please don't believe my lies, Goddess! I really haven't eaten any good people, please..."
As he spoke, he looked at Yunxi again and said:
"Goddess, please, I can tell you're a good person. Please persuade your sister not to pull out my ghost tooth!"
The hungry ghost was good at reading people; he overheard that the maiden in white had just called the Tooth Extraction Monster" sister"!
Moreover, this maiden in white looks like she's very kind!
Upon hearing this, Yunxi replied with a kind expression:
"Hey... do you have any companions? The kind stronger than you... or why don't you call out the other ghosts, and I'll leave you a tooth, how about that?"
She felt that this ghost seemed weaker than the one she had encountered before.
That one's demon fang, the Great Devil King probably likes more...
Upon hearing this, even the starving ghosts were shocked and stared at Yunxi in disbelief.
What kind of demon is this?!
Not only does it want to pull its own teeth, but it also wants to pull the teeth of its other companions?
They even want to find something stronger?
Who's stronger? Commander Gui Qi's teeth have all been pulled out, leaving only the Ghost Lord!
She actually dared to Ghost Lord?!
That maiden in white... isn't she the real Tooth Extraction Monster??
The starving ghost fell silent; he knew he had mistaken the person for someone else!
"I was so stupid, so very stupid!" (Quote from Xianglin's Wife)
He felt wronged and desperate.
"If you don't want to talk, then hand over your teeth!"
At this moment, Ziling spoke up, saying, "Also, you have to swear a ghost oath to prove you've never eaten a good person, or you'll die!"
Upon hearing this, the starving ghost was filled with grief and indignation, but all he could do was reach out and pull out his teeth one by one!
He trembled as he offered up the demon tooth, swearing a demonic oath:
"I swear, I've never wronged a good person... Waaah, it's so hard to wrong a good person..."
He even cried!
Ziling took the ghost tooth, only to find that it was even rougher than the old ghost's tooth from last time.
I'm too embarrassed to give it away!
"Sister Ziling, let's go. I think there might be more ghosts ahead!"
Yunxi spoke.
Ziling nodded, blinked her big eyes, and then suddenly whispered to the starving ghost:
"Keep waiting here. If any bad guys come later... eat them, understand?"
Ziling was equally clever; she could tell that Sister Yunxi cherished her relationship with Yun Qin... Therefore, Sister Yunxi couldn't bring herself to do it.
Upon hearing this, the starving ghost nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice!
And at this moment.
Rear.
The Yun and Zhan families finally managed to defeat the fifth Vine Person!
This time, another Old Vine- man appeared, incredibly powerful. Zhan Chonglei alone couldn't defeat him, so he gave one of his divine artifacts to Yun Yinxing. The two of them, wielding the two artifacts, fought for nearly a hundred rounds before finally defeating the Old Vine- man!
Even so, both Zhan Chonglei and Yun Yinxing coughed up blood and suffered serious injuries.
At this moment, they were devouring the elixirs that replenished their spiritual energy.
"This is too difficult... Shaoling, if there's more to come, I really can't hold on."
Zhan Chonglei spoke with difficulty, glancing at Yun Qin beside him, and then forced himself to speak in a low voice:
"Shao Ling, I feel this woman is a jinx to her husbands... she's such a jinx!"
Zhan Shaoling's scalp tingled at that moment!
Just what kind of Calamity Star is Yun Qin?
That's terrifying, that's terrifying.
The Zhan family has already paid the price with three divine artifacts for this.
They've almost exhausted their trump cards this time.
Normally, they could break through and escape, but because Yun Qin was there, they had to fight to the death against those Vine Person every time!
Could Yun Qin be a spy planted by the Yun family within my inner circle?
Is it true that bad luck is used to control oneself?
"Shao Ling, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"
Yun Qin wept bitterly, her body now covered in wounds, ravaged by those Vine Person.
Zhan Shaoling took a deep breath, maintaining his composure, and said, "It's alright..."
If he could do it all over again, he would even like to kill Yun Qin.
But now that we've come this far, the price we've paid is too high, so we have no choice but to keep going.
Hopefully, Yun Qin's usefulness will be worthwhile...
They continued on their way.
After several waves of battles with the Vine Person, of the thousands who followed, only a few hundred remain.
Everyone was terrified!
"Have you noticed that the blood of the dead is being absorbed by this land...?"
Someone spoke up with concern, saying, "The people of the Wood Spirit Imperial Dynasty previously said that death would amplify a certain power in this region..."
"Don't worry, it's just nonsense!"
"Even if there is any danger, with the Yun and Zhan families ahead, what is there to fear? We just need to seize some peripheral treasures."
Others spoke up.
As the group moved forward, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the terrifying Vines had disappeared.
The area ahead was completely open.
"Very good."
"We finally passed."
Everyone exclaimed with joy.
What's that ahead? A great fortuitous opportunity?
At that moment, someone pointed to the Giant Vine in the distance!
Everyone was extremely solemn.
"Exuding an unparalleled aura..."
"Such a divine object, even obtaining just a single vine of it would be unparalleled!"
Their eyes burned with fervor.
They hurriedly prepared to move forward.
But at that moment, a cold wind blew in!
A dense cacophony of ghostly whispers filled the air.
In an instant, the darkness hidden in the hearts of many cultivators in the arena was unleashed!
They were somewhat delirious and were caught in a hallucination.
"I'm going to kill someone! I'm going to kill my Senior Brother!"
"Master's wife, come quick, Master's wife! If Master can't do it, I can! I'm so strong..."
"All glory belongs to me, I am the true genius, you will all die..."
In an instant, under the spell of the ghostly words, countless people were consumed by their own dark desires!
At that moment, amidst the eerie wind, the hungry ghost's eyes gleamed. He withdrew the eerie wind and then opened his mouth to swallow.
Instantly, countless cultivators screamed in agony!
"No!"
"Help!"
Those chosen by the starving ghost were all swallowed whole!
"Wow, there are so many people! We can finally have a proper, filling meal..."
The starving ghost was extremely satisfied and prepared to continue eating.
However, at this moment, Yun Qin had also fallen into a kind of madness in the crowd.
"Haha, Yunxi, you're finally dead! You'll never come back to life, good riddance... Shaoling, yes, come quick, you're awesome..."
The starving ghost had already stretched out its claws to grab Yun Qin!
Beside him, Zhan Shaoling trembled and hurriedly spoke, saying:
"Shut up!"
May the Bodhisattva protect you!
He hurriedly hung a jade statue of a Bodhisattva around Yun Qin's neck!
--The Zhan family had previously analyzed that there must be an old ghost behind the Wood Spirit Imperial Dynasty.
Therefore, I prepared many Law Treasure to deal with ghosts when I came to the Eastern Wasteland this time.
Among them are treasures that have been blessed with Buddhist light, and this jade Bodhisattva statue is one of them!
Moreover, this jade Bodhisattva statue has an extraordinary origin; it was bestowed upon them by a powerful figure behind the Zhan family...
It was the existence of that important figure that gave them the courage to confront the old ghost in the Great Wilderness. Otherwise, even the Xuan Yin and Lu Yang wandering gods would have suffered setbacks, and the Zhan family, being merely Aristocratic Clan of Deity, would never have dared to be so bold.
In an instant, Yun Qin seemed to awaken from a deep dream, and said blankly:
"What's wrong? I..."
Zhan Shaoling said, "You've been misled by the ghost language."
Having said that, he looked up at the starving ghost in front of him, used a magical artifact to shield himself from the senses of others, and then Sound Dao:
"You devil, please stop!"
"I can give you something even tastier!"
The starving ghost sensed the consecrated jade statue and a hint of suspicion flashed across its face!
"The Great Ruin Realm isn't one of the Three Thousand Brahma Realms... How could something like this appear!"
The Three Thousand Brahma Realms are the realms belonging to Buddhism, and the Brahma religion... is one of the few forces capable of suppressing ghosts!
He stopped immediately and stared coldly at Zhan Shaoling!
Zhan Shaoling stepped forward defiantly and took out a jade box!
Inside the jade box was a stillborn fetus, about the size of a palm!
"This is an infant ghost. If you devour it, your power will greatly increase!"
He spoke solemnly!
A flicker of surprise flashed in the starving ghost's eyes.
The infant ghost is a vicious and wicked ghost... For him, it was indeed a feast, more satisfying than devouring ordinary cultivators.
This Great Ruin Realm is merely a single-star realm; how could it give birth to an infant ghost? And how did an infant ghost end up in this brat's hands?
Why?
The starving ghost replied coldly.
When humans and ghosts do business, there must be something they want in return!
"I would like to cooperate with you."
Zhan Shaoling spoke solemnly, saying:
"But before that, I'd like to ask, what is the relationship between the Wood Spirit Imperial Dynasty and Your Excellency?"
He was very cautious.
After all, the Zhan family suspected that an old ghost was behind the Wood Spirit Imperial Dynasty, but who knew if it was the one standing before them...
The Path of the Starving Ghosts:
"The Wood Spirit Imperial Dynasty? It's alright."
Hearing this, Zhan Shaoling was relieved and continued:
"How about the adult behind you intervenes instead of dealing with this infant ghost?"
The starving ghost's heart sank, and he said, "Do you know that I have other masters after me?"
Zhan Shaoling was taken aback for a moment before realizing that this ghost... was speaking with a slightly lisp!
"The ghost mark on your forehead."
He spoke.
Indeed, there was a faint ghost mark on the forehead of the starving ghost!
That was left by the Ghost Lord, a symbol of his life... belonging to the Ghost Lord!
The starving ghost was increasingly surprised; this human before him actually knew so much about the ghost race...
Moreover, they can produce infant ghosts and possess consecrated ritual implements of the Buddhist tradition...
The starving ghost suddenly realized that the waters of this Great Ruin Realm... were very deep!
Has the black hand of Buddhism reached here too?
Thinking of this, he felt it necessary to investigate through Zhan Shaoling. Not figuring out the conspiracy of the Brahma Sect would be a great disadvantage to the Ghost Lord!
His ghostly eyes immediately darted around, and he said:
"Okay, I promise you."
Upon hearing this, Zhan Shaoling's eyes lit up with joy, but he still said:
"Would you be willing to swear a ghostly oath? If you do, this infant ghost will belong to you..."
He knew a lot about ghosts and was well aware that dealing with them was like asking a tiger for its skin—who knew if this ghost was lying to him?
However, a ghost oath can bind ghosts!
Upon hearing this, the starving ghost transmitted his Sound Dao:
"Fine, I swear, if I'm lying to you, may all my demon teeth fall out!"
Zhan Shaoling was overjoyed. He knew that Ghost Fang was extremely important to ghosts, and the secret power that could restrain ghosts had just flowed through it, which was a true ghost oath!
"This belongs to you."
He immediately handed over the infant ghost, a smile appearing on his face!
He did this because he no longer had enough support at his disposal!
Zhan Chonglei is already seriously injured, and the Yun family probably has some kind of conspiracy with the beings in the Great Wilderness... They need to win over the ghosts!
Use it for your own purposes!
It's a success now.
The starving ghost took the box containing the infant ghost and put it away.
"By the way, have you seen three women pass by here?"
Zhan Shaoling suddenly asked a question.
He kept a close eye on things throughout his journey.
However, the bodies of Yunxi and the other two have never been found!
He suspected that the three men had already gone deeper into the area before them.
The starving ghost suddenly became somewhat nervous.
Three girls... those are practically three demons!!
"Have."
There was only one word; even a starving ghost wouldn't dare utter another.
Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble if you face retaliation!
Upon hearing this, Zhan Shaoling immediately stiffened!
As expected, Yunxi didn't die!
"Very well, thank you very much. It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Zhan Shaoling spoke.
With a wave of his hand, the hungry ghost vanished in an instant, the eerie wind dissipated, and he was gone!
Everyone was in a daze for a moment before finally waking up from the illusion.
"What just happened? Where's Master's wife? Master's wife, I still need..."
A young cultivator looked lost and bewildered; after the illusion faded, he felt life was utterly meaningless.
"I didn't kill anyone... it was all an illusion?"
"There's a ghost..."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
"Everyone, a ghost appeared just now, but I have driven it away. Please follow me inside!"
At this moment, Zhan Shaoling spoke loudly.
Upon hearing this, everyone felt extremely grateful to Zhan Shaoling continued forward with him.
"Qin'er,"
As they walked, Zhan Shaoling gently pulled Yun Qin aside, away from Yun Yinxing, before Sound Dao, "Now I know why you've been so unlucky."
Yun Qin looked at him, her eyes filled with questions.
"Yunxi entered this place before us. Why are those Vines attacking you so fiercely? You're the only one among us who has a close relationship with Yunxi..."
Zhan Shaoling spoke calmly.
Yun Qin was stunned for a moment; in that instant, she seemed to understand something...
"She... she plotted to kill me?!"
At that moment, an unparalleled hatred welled up in her eyes!
This is the only reasonable explanation!
Yunxi passed through this place first, and then she was targeted by the Vine Person...
Thinking of all the suffering she had endured, she gritted her teeth and said:
"I really want her dead!"
At this moment, Zhan Shaoling's eyes were cold, yet he feigned a touch of warmth, saying:
"I'm the one who loves you the most, and I support everything you do."
"However, the Yun family is not easy to deal with. You should do this..."
Yun Qin nodded.
And at this moment.
Yunxi, Ziling, and Mu Wanqing had already reached the giant vine!
Upon arriving at this place, they found it difficult to approach!
Because, from that Giant Vine, countless laws descended, forming an invisible barrier, profound and unparalleled!
I'll combine the two chapters into one and release it. There might be another chapter, but it will definitely be very late. I don't know when I'll finish writing it, so don't wait any longer.
I've been feeling rather depressed lately, and I can't seem to muster any motivation or interest in doing anything... Sigh.
