"Clang—!!!"

A deafening clash of metal thundered through the cold, damp forest of jagged rocks.

The sound waves rippled like something solid, sweeping scattered sparks wildly outward and raising a gale that blew back a ring of ghost mist.

The Ghost-Slaying Blade's dark-red edge struck the zombie Ghostman's arms, crossed protectively before his chest.

These were the iron arms the Hòuqīng Clan took such pride in, reputedly indestructible and impervious to fire and water—deadly weapons that struck terror into countless Ghostmen throughout the Netherworld.

Yet today, those arms, strong enough to tear through steel, trembled slightly.

Sparks flew like brilliant fireworks, revealing a savage intent to kill.

The tremendous impact traveled through the zombie Ghostman's arms and into his entire body. The rocky ground beneath his feet shattered, and his legs sank into the soil as he shed the terrifying force.

"Hm?"

For the first time, an emotion called pain appeared in the zombie Ghostman's scarlet eyes.

Agony wracked his arms. His impenetrable defenses, tempered by countless currents of yin baleful intent and covered in fine black scales, had actually been breached by this slash.

A blade mark appeared on his arm. Before black ghost qi could seep out, the fireworks qi clinging to the wound burned it with a sizzling hiss.

"Sssss—"

The supremely yang, scorching fireworks qi of the human world frantically burned the ghost qi around the wound, sending up wisps of smoke and a nauseating charred stench.

"He broke through my defenses?!"

A flicker of astonishment crossed the zombie Ghostman's eyes.

With his bronze skin and iron bones, even divine weapons could scarcely scratch him.

Fang Jingnian, Guo Kai, and Liu Yuan had taken turns attacking him earlier, exhausting every means at their disposal. After all that fighting, they had not even left a pale mark
