We watched the scene from afar, every one of us stunned.
Nine Corpse Daoist had actually assassinated Yehenara Chongyue.
He was now greedily absorbing the other man's ghost energy essence. If Nine Corpse Daoist filled himself up, his strength would surely rise to another level.
Master was the first to speak:
"Third Master, we have to stop that bastard."
Third Master did not waste words. He charged forward with his curved blade in hand, and the rest of us quickly followed.
But with those evil entities blocking our way, we were clearly slower than Third Master.
Seeing Third Master about to break through the ghost horde and charge at him, Nine Corpse Daoist did not hesitate.
He swung the curved blade in his hand.
With a bang, the Ghost General Chong Yue he had been biting exploded, his soul instantly scattered and destroyed.
Amid the burning phosphorescent flames, three energy crystals hovered in the air.
Nine Corpse Daoist grabbed them and put them away.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, he turned and fled.
He could not even defeat my master. Against Third Master, he would only die.
Though Chong Yue had just died, the hundred-odd remaining evil ghosts still mindlessly clawed and attacked us...
These evil ghosts had long lost all sense of self. They possessed only the obsessions imposed upon them and a desire to slaughter.
They were not even afraid of Third Master.
Third Master had already gone after Nine Corpse Daoist, because he had taken the three crystal fragments.
They were extremely important items within the Nine Corpse Tower.
At that moment, Master shouted:
"Kill them all! Leave none alive!"
As soon as he spoke, he unleashed the Thunder-Slashing Technique.
At the same time, everyone released their strongest incantations...
A hundred of them was an alarming number.
