King of Assassins

Chapter 1260: Chapter 759: Celestial Ghost (2)

The foggy, dark world split apart along with the Sword Light.

Through the fissure cleaved by the Sword Light, the Peacock King could already see a strip of azure sky.

The Primordial Qi in the void also suddenly vibrated, emitting endless rumbling sounds.

The out-of-control Primordial Qi quickly exploded, the massive palace was the first to be destroyed, followed by rolling dust from the Qi explosion.

The Peacock King, who was beside Lian Yi, was greatly shocked. At the moment Lian Yi drew her sword, she felt a powerful Earth Immortal Law was severed, and the aura of a Demon Emperor was rapidly dissipating.

This Earth Immortal called Ten Thousand Ghosts was killed by Lian Yi with just one sword.

The Ghost Cultivators led by the Ghost Emperor were actually following a special cultivation path, entirely abandoning the flesh.

This path is the hardest at the beginning, but once the Thunder Tribulation is passed, the road ahead becomes wider.

The Ghost Emperor having many Earth Immortal Level subordinates proves this path easily leads to enlightenment. Of course, cultivators on this path are managed by the Ghost Emperor’s restraint.

Even so, countless beings wish to tread this path.

Once Ghost Cultivators reach the Earth Immortal Realm, their Divine Souls merge with the Heaven and Earth Law, truly becoming immortal and indestructible. Even Thunder Magic, which specifically restrains Divine Souls, is ineffective against them.

The Ghost Emperor dominates the Eight Desolates by relying on the special Divine Techniques of the ghost path.

The Peacock King never expected that Lian Yi, who seemed innocent like a young girl, could kill an Earth Immortal Level Ten Thousand Ghosts with just one sword.

Including the powerful ghost souls within hundreds of thousands of miles, their Divine Souls were slashed to death by her peerless Sword Qi. Dead beyond death.

Because the Earth Immortal Law of Ten Thousand Ghosts was integrated with Heaven and Earth, his death triggered the abnormal change in Heaven and Earth.

Even if it were her, she couldn’t withstand this sword. Even in her own Peacock Palace, it would be hard to take this sword.

The key is that Lian Yi didn’t even exert strength, it was a casual slash.

From this, it can be seen how formidable Lian Yi is.

After the shock, the Peacock King felt a surge of joy; with Lian Yi’s prowess, she indeed had the qualifications to fight against the Ghost Emperor.

She probably wouldn’t need to participate in the battle herself!

"The Yin Qi is so heavy..."

Lian Yi flew up high with the Peacock King, from this vantage point, they could see strands of Yin Qi soaring skyward like wolf smoke, then slowly dissipating within the invisible Primordial Qi tides.

These Yin Qis were gathered and transformed postnatally through various magical methods, but without the control of the Earth Immortal Law, the postnatally transformed Yin Qi would quickly dissipate.

Lian Yi had never seen such a large-scale Primordial Qi anomaly, finding it quite interesting.

She said to the Peacock King, "Ghost Cultivators are vulnerable. I don’t think the Ghost Emperor is that capable. When we meet him, you can practice first."

The Peacock King hesitated to speak, finally nodding anyway.

How could Ten Thousand Ghosts compare to the Ghost Emperor, and how could she compare to Lian Yi? But Lian Yi had made herself so clear, there was no room for her to decline.

Lian Yi admired the Peacock King’s demeanor, comforting her: "You don’t need to worry, with me here you won’t suffer. Worst case, even if I can’t protect you, there is still the big boss."

She grinned: "You are very beautiful, your physical form is well-crafted, and most importantly, you have the Pure Yin Body, which qualifies you to serve the big boss. Be smart."

The Peacock King, who had lived through hundreds of thousands of years, was made shy by Lian Yi’s words. Although she had thought about it, hearing it said to her face was different.

The issue was Lian Yi was so powerful, she couldn’t even withstand her sword, leaving her with no ground to act with temper.

She had no choice but to show shyness.

Lian Yi was enthusiastic: "Once you follow the big boss, you become his. The big boss has always treated his people well. You won’t lose out."

The Peacock King didn’t know how to respond, resorting to an awkward smile.

Lian Yi was about to further persuade when a sharp wail echoed from afar.

This wail was incredibly unpleasant, as if Ten Thousand Ghosts were howling. Lian Yi felt her Divine Soul tremble, almost torn into countless pieces by the sound.

Fortunately, the pure Sword Intent spontaneously protected her Divine Soul, shredding all external forces.

Even so, Lian Yi turned pale, her Aqua-colored Sword Light wavering unsteadily.

Since her enlightenment into the Earth Immortal, she hadn’t encountered such a powerful enemy.

Undoubtedly, it was the Ghost Emperor who attacked. However, this level of challenge was not beyond her.

Lian Yi originally intended to let the Peacock King practice, so Gao Xuan could see this woman differently.

Unexpectedly, the Ghost Emperor arrived so quickly, so fiercely!

The nearby Peacock King was enveloped in Five-Colored Divine Light, but it couldn’t hide her expression of panic.

The same Five Elements Transformation, when performed by the Peacock King, was as fragile as paper. It couldn’t compare to the big boss’s Five Elements Formless Divine Light that evolves all creation and the world.

Indeed, the Peacock King was merely good-looking. The big boss kept her around because of her beauty.

Given this, she couldn’t let the Peacock King die here.

Lian Yi slightly narrowed her eyes; she didn’t need to search for the enemy, just relied on Sword Intent intuition to slash swiftly.

The Ming Che Sword Light danced and spun, as if spinning and falling into the deep void.

The wailing from the void abruptly ceased.

The Peacock King also breathed a huge sigh of relief; if the wailing had continued, her Divine Soul would have been torn apart.

An expert of the Ghost Emperor’s caliber was indeed terrifying to the extreme.

The Peacock King looked at Lian Yi again, realizing aside from her pale complexion, there were no other anomalies.

Lian Yi seemed provoked by the opponent, her eyes filled with anger. This rage made her gaze so sharp it could not be directly faced.

The Peacock King, stealing a glance, felt as if her Divine Soul had been cut by a sharp Sword Artifact, stinging intensely.
