Xu Taiping shook his head.
"Perhaps it would indeed have been difficult before we knew their weaknesses. But now that we do, with those elders' cultivation and combat strength, it will be no difficult task."
Jiang Zhi asked in some surprise:
"Those elders are that formidable in battle?"
Xu Taiping nodded.
"If we truly fought, I might not be their match."

Xu Taiping's brows knitted tightly.
"Could this be what Half-Immortal Kang Cang meant when he said that the stronger the opponents they encounter, the stronger these ghost creatures become?"
Meng Qingqiu said solemnly:
"At least, that is true
