Chapter 2844 Phantom Formation, Ghastly Mother Ghost
“This guy deserves the t.i.tle of genius. Amongst all the experts in the entire nine boundaries, less than five of them were more talented than him.”
Mo Sanpao said with a low voice while feeling quite ashamed of himself. It was really terrifying as Fang Bi’s strength had already surpa.s.sed his peers. It was not something an ordinary cultivator can do.
“Even if four of us have joined hands together, it is still very difficult to defeat him. It’s going to be a hard life-and-death battle.”
Donghuang Taiji whispered while he felt very complicated. Whether Fang Bi was alive or dead would be a suffering matter to both Murong Yun`er and him. This battle was inevitable as it was relevant to men’s dignity and even to their future as cultivators. Otherwise, their journey of cultivation would be very difficult.
As soon as the Fifth Blade was casted, the sword qi shook in all directions. Fang Bi’s sword skill was fully displayed. The sword and the human merged as one ent.i.ty. Fang Bi casted the skill by his consciousness and this was the most terrifying thing about Fang Bi. The four faces looked solemn now as they could only defend themself in face of the attack.
The sword was the unparalleled attacking technique and it even held the name of the king among all kinds of weapons. A sword strike could shatter a mountain, a field and even a universe. One could see that the sword’s qi had already reached the peak of the realm. A realm that despised every law in the world! This was how an invincible attacking technique should look like.
Fang Bi was the one who controlled the battle now. Holding the sword in his hand, he swept across in all directions and entered a realm that no one could reach. A Half-step Divine King’s overbearing aura flooded over the place.
On the other hand, Gui Gu wasn’t that lucky because Jiang Chen and the others were all more powerful than the other group. While Zi Xi was attacking Gui Gu, Yan Qingcheng and Moling Dongchen took defense as a way of attack and blocked up all of the way Gui Gu could ever dodge. At the same time, Jiang Chen was fighting with Gui Gu fiercely. It would not be easy for Gui Gu to deal with four opponents simultaneously.
Nevertheless, Gui Gu was still powerful. Being one of the greatest cultivators in Qi Lian Boundary, it was impossible that he would lack capability to fight this battle. Even though he was attacked by four people simultaneously, Gu Gui was not nervous at all. He took a step back to defend himself without panicking. Jiang Chen and the others kept striking but none of them gained the upper hand yet.
“This guy is not that simple.”
Jiang Chen squinted his eyes slightly as he felt that this guy was preparing something in the dark. Jiang Chen held Heavenly Dragon Sword in his hand, cras.h.i.+ng against Gui Gu and leaving him no chance to breathe. Although the sword was not as sharp as Fang Bi’s sword aura, Jiang Chen was more superior than Fang Bi. Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword put on a great pressure on Gui Gu.
“Kid, do you only have little tricks?”
Gui Gu smiled faintly and launched another strike, his eyes displayed ruthlessness.
“Twilight Clouds Phantom Formation!”
Gu Gu shouted with a low voice and casted a formation to besiege his opponents. Jiang Chen now only knew what Gui Gu was doing but he never expected that he would act so quickly. The Twilight Clouds Ghost Shadow Formation was not usual at all as it was full of awe-inspiring phantoms. Jiang Chen and the others were now trapped in the formation. Gu Gui looked calm and composed as he had already expected this scene. He never fought any battle without full preparation. How he set up the formation in the dark had shocked everyone.
Phantoms came out and spread across inside the formation. There were more than a hundred thousand Early Divine King phantoms roaring and wailing in the formation. Yan Qingcheng and the others all looked extremely serious as the formation was really strange. It was terrifying.
“No wonder you are the number-one cultivator in Killing Luo Sect. This formation is really tricky.”
Zi Xi’s eyes looked solemn while he kept shattering those phantoms with the sword in his hand. He ignored all of the collision happening around and wrestled with the phantoms in the formation.
These phantoms reached Divine King Realm and released indescribably great pressure to the people around. Xi Zi, Yan Qingcheng and Moling Dongchen were especially trapped by Gui Gu. The phantoms brought them immense suffering. These phantoms seemed like they came from a devil that rooted in their heart, cras.h.i.+ng against their body and spirit.
“Killing Luo Phantoms are all illusions. What can these phantoms do against me!”
Jiang Chen broke the sky with his hand and buddhism light suddenly shone out in all directions. The phantoms inside the formation dared not to get closer to him. However, the other three were still struggling, entangled by the phantoms. It was hard for them to take any action and if the situation continues, they might be defeated by the phantoms attacks.
Under the buddhism light, those phantoms only got far away from Jiang Chen and they attacked Yan Qingcheng and the others instead, greatly harming the three. Jiang Chen frowned. Although these Killing Luo Phantoms were not as strong as the true Divine King experts, they attacked their enemy fiercely without fear of death, which was very terrifying. If the situation continued as it is, the three of them would probably be killed.
Gui Gu stood at the center of the formation in pride. Jiang Chen knew that the formation would only be shattered if Gui Gu was defeated. Otherwise, the three of them would fall into a life-and-death criss.
“Unless you are a realm higher than me, it is impossible for you to break my Twilight Clouds Phantom Formation. The phantoms are like me and I am the phantoms. Hahaha.”
Gui Gu laughed out loud and said as he merged into the phantoms. Jiang Chen was not afraid of the phantoms, but it was not easy to find Gui Gu among them.
“It is just a phantom formation, I will definitely break it!”
Jiang Chen was solemn and he said coldly. Yan Qingcheng and the others were unable to resist the dreadfulness of the phantoms at all. They could only defend themselves, and they lost all of their initiative to counterattack.
“Ghastly Mother Ghost devours heaven and earth!”
Gui Gu’s figure soared up to the void and targeted Jiang Chen. The phantoms merged into one and became a more terrifying phantom skeleton now. It was more than three thousand meters tall and as if it was going to devour Jiang Chen.
A blue coloured fire raised up from the Ghastly Mother Ghost’s mouth. Jiang Chen was not afraid at all and he pointed his sword towards it. In the Twilight Clouds Phantom Formation, the Ghastly Mother Ghost devoured Jiang Chen completely. At the moment, Yan Qingchen and others were stunned as they knew how dreadful the phantoms were, not to mention the gigantic Ghastly Mother Ghost.
“Jiang Chen!”
Moling Dongchen was worried. Although she was very confident in Jiang Chen, their enemy now was not any ordinary cultivator. It was Gui Gu of Killing Luo Sect and they all knew how formidable he was.
When Jiang Chen was devoured by the Ghastly Mother Ghost, everything between heaven and earth seemed to stand still for a moment. Everyone held their breath while looking at the scene silently. In the Twilight Clouds Phantom Formation, Yan Qingcheng and the others had lost their strength to withstand their enemy and they could only defend themselves. It was impossible for them to save Jiang Chen.
“Three Thousand Li!”
Jiang Chen made a sword strike from the Ghastly Mother Ghost’s mouth. Finally, the frozen phantoms were all shattered into rays of light and became the shadows of swords. Jiang Chen merged with his sword and broke Gu Gui’s Ghastly Mother Ghost apart.
The rays of light slashed through the sky. Jiang Chen looked at everything in despair. The Ghastly Mother Ghost was turned into vapour and disappeared.
“Interesting, I have underestimated you, Jiang Chen. It’s impossible that you could gain the upper hand in my formation. Ghastly Mother Ghost was just the beginning.”
Gui Gu’s eyes were cold and sharp as he stared at Jiang Chen. Despite a thousand metre distance, they could feel each other’s intense battling intent.
