Great Demon Leader: Start By Refining Flying Zombies

Chapter 43: Evil Ghost

"Old ghost, don't sleep, wake up and see what kind of evil path this is!"

Although Liang Xiao was not afraid, he didn't want to take any extra risks. He shook the Universe Bracelet and awakened the Hundred Calamities Daoist.

This guy's Gold Core was on the verge of breaking, although he used secret techniques to control the cracks in the Gold Core, it was becoming more and more useless.

He mostly slept, using this method to survive. Even Liang Xiao could only occasionally wake him up.

The Hundred Calamities Daoist turned into a wisp of green smoke and floated out of the Universe Bracelet, condensing into the head of an old man with an immortal aura, but his gaze was very strange.

"You little devil, don't bother the old ancestor with small problems. You must learn to overcome dangers, otherwise how can you survive in the cruel cultivation world!"

"Stop talking nonsense, have you figured out anything?"

The Hundred Calamities Daoist glanced at the strange blood mist in front of him and touched his mouth, saying, "As an old Gold Core cultivator, I don't have the time to study Qi Refining stage spells that can create this kind of blood mist phenomenon. There are too many of them."

"Spells like Boiling Blood Technique, Reverse Blood Spirit Array, or various Demon Dao Law Treasures can easily evaporate a person's blood and create blood mist."

"But just now, I used my Gold Core stage spiritual sense to scan the surroundings, and there is no immediate danger."

Upon hearing the last sentence, Liang Xiao nodded satisfactorily and stepped onto the corridor, remaining vigilant as he continued forward.

The furnishings and decorations in the inner courtyard of the General's Mansion were more luxurious than those in the outer courtyard.

After a while.

The three of them passed by a garden filled with rare and exotic flowers and plants rarely seen in the outside world.

This should have been a place of beauty, but in the blood mist, the beautiful flowers became somewhat eerie. Near the plant roots, even the usual sounds of insects were absent.

Woo~

An unusually strange sound came from behind Liang Xiao. He turned around abruptly, his eyes filled with mana, shining brightly, but he didn't see anything.

Only a clump of flowers swayed gently.

Chih!

On the other side, Qin Long pointed his fingers together, suddenly raised his hand and slashed out a small sword qi, striking towards a certain spot.

After cutting through the blood mist, it missed its target and only shaved off a section of a corridor pillar.

"There's something there!"

Liang Xiao affirmed.

"And the movement seems very fast!"

Qin Long nodded and added.

If it was just one person's illusion, but the possibility of two cultivators sensing the danger at the same time was extremely low.

Therefore, the two of them slowly approached each other, almost back to back, and vigilantly surveyed their surroundings.

Only Pandora fluttered her wings, tilted her head, and hopped ahead, leading the way, and the corner of the corridor was right in front of her.

Roar!

Suddenly, a semi-ethereal and hideous female ghost, pale as powder with blurred features, hung upside down and floated down from above the corridor, almost face to face with Pandora.

It let out a resentful scream, accompanied by a shocking sensation, extremely piercing. Blood tears flowed from its eyes, and its sharp claws pierced directly into Pandora's skull, creating a horrifying scene.

If it were an ordinary person here, their courage would have been shattered by the suddenness of it all. How could they have the will to resist the ghost's attack?

But Pandora was different. Provoked, her eyes glowed red, her canine teeth slightly revealed, and she let out a roar even more fierce and ferocious than before.

Roar!!!

This roar seemed to carry the murderous aura inherent to a Flying Zombie, stirring up a violent wind, and actually blew the face of the semi-ethereal female ghost, distorting and dispersing it.

It no longer had its original horrifying appearance, but instead appeared somewhat ridiculous.

But it didn't end there. Pandora's wings trembled, and then she punched the female ghost's chest, blasting it into several pieces, creating an extremely brutal scene.

Liang Xiao saw Pandora encounter an enemy and quickly stepped forward, preparing to pick up a piece of debris to examine. But before he could touch it, he saw the debris dissolve into the blood mist.

And a few steps further down the corridor, another female ghost identical to the previous one appeared out of thin air.

With the same pale face like powder, indistinct features, and hollow eyes filled with deep-seated resentment.

Then came the second one!

The third one!

...

"Interesting, there's more than one?" Liang Xiao froze, then sneered.

At this moment, the corridor in front of the three of them was already densely packed with these strange female ghosts, their hands hanging low, floating in mid-air.

These ghosts had no feet, only blood-stained long skirts gently swaying in the wind.

Pandora took the lead, paying no attention to the pitiful appearance of these ghostly creatures, each punch and kick containing terrifying force.

She charged into the midst of the female ghost group, like a tiger among sheep, allowing those female ghosts to counterattack. Every punch she threw caused a female ghost to explode, emitting a strange cry similar to a woman sobbing.

However, there were still a dozen or so female ghosts floating in mid-air, reaching out their claws towards Liang Xiao and Qin Long.

Liang Xiao activated the Tianshan Demon Hand, striking out with a palm. He found that although the female ghost had no physical form, its strength was not weak, at least comparable to a cultivator at the first or second level of Qi Refining.

Wu wu~

Just as Liang Xiao was about to increase his magical power and send this female ghost to the afterlife, it shed tears of blood and emitted a strange mournful cry.

These ghostly things had also shouted at Pandora before, but she had no reaction.

But unexpectedly, this sound impacted Liang Xiao, causing his consciousness to blur for a moment.

He immediately realized something was wrong and forcefully bit his tongue to awaken his consciousness.

When he opened his eyes, the scene before him made Liang Xiao's mind tremble.

He saw Qin Long with a bloodthirsty smirk, pulling out a long sword from his waist and slashing towards his own neck. The speed was so fast that there was no time to dodge.

He could only instinctively close his eyes and await death.

"Little devil, wake up, you've been hit!"

Just at this moment, the urgent voice of the Hundred Tribulations Daoist came from the depths of his heart, accompanied by the infusion of a magical power into his forehead. The world before Liang Xiao's eyes instantly collapsed.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw a blur in front of him, with nothing in sight, and no sign of Qin Long wielding a sword.

Qin Long hadn't drawn his sword, he was actually struggling with five or six female ghosts not far away, under much greater pressure than him.

However, a ferocious female ghost took advantage of Liang Xiao's illusion and circled around to his side, preparing to launch an attack.

At this moment, Liang Xiao, who had regained his clarity, fully activated the Tianshan Demon Hand, smashing the female ghost into pieces with a palm, making it disappear.

"The ordinary spells have little effect on this group of female ghosts. Use your Fire Chi Pearl to stimulate the True Sun Fire, which can restrain most of the evil spirits!"

The Hundred Tribulations Daoist instructed in Liang Xiao's mind. The magical power that had stimulated Liang Xiao just now was his doing. Otherwise, Liang Xiao would have thought that he had opened his eyes and dispelled the interference, but he was still trapped in an illusion.

As the saying goes, listen to advice and eat your fill.

Liang Xiao raised his hand and took out a fiery red spirit pearl from the Universe Bracelet. It was the size of a baby's fist and looked like a pure agate, without any impurities.

As a wisp of True Sun Fire traveled out from Liang Xiao's dantian and poured into the Fire Chi Pearl, this Law Weapon seemed to have gained a soul.

Then Liang Xiao called out to Qin Long and Pandora.

When the two of them forced the female ghosts to retreat and withdrew behind him, he puffed up his cheeks and blew. Under his breath, a golden flame dragon reappeared, completely destroying all the evil spirits in front of him.

In a short period of time, even the surrounding blood mist evaporated completely.

"Fortunately, this treasure is really good. When combined with the True Sun Fire, it's simply invincible!"

Liang Xiao's magical power was depleted, and as he gasped for breath, he satisfiedly touched the Fire Chi Pearl.

"Little devil, don't be too happy, it's not over yet!"

With the cold snort of the Hundred Tribulations Daoist, not long after, in the corridor ahead, from the shadows around the corner, the blood mist gathered again, and female ghosts began to emerge as if they were endless.
