Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 343 - 144: Even the Sinister Spirits of the Underworld Think Daoist Priest Fan is a Monster! (10,000-Word Mega - , Please Subscribe)_6
The next instant.
The Demon-slaying Sword.
Unsheathed!
The astonishing power radiating from the blade of the Demon-slaying Sword swept away all the Yin Energy around, affecting several evil spirits closest to Fan Wu first and foremost.
They hadn’t seen clearly how Fan Wu had drawn the sword.
They only saw a flash of sword light before their eyes, and then their spectral bodies were engulfed in the blinding radiance of the sword’s energy!
Their forms began to collapse in the blink of an eye!
And they started to disintegrate!
In the span of that blink, nearly a dozen evil spirits were eradicated by the Demon-slaying Sword, originally under the command of no more than about a hundred evil spirits overseen by the Blade-handling Ghost General.
And out of these hundred or so, Fan Wu’s single strike had cleared nearly a tenth.
The scene.
Became eerily silent in an instant!
The Blade-handling Ghost General, who had slammed harshly into the ground and was struggling to rise, watched Fan Wu with a face full of horror. He finally understood why both the Ghost Hand General and the Seductive Fox General had become so disheveled under the teamwork of the two Ghost Generals.
It wasn’t because they were too useless, but because this guy in front of them was too powerful.
At this moment, seeing this terrifying spectacle, all the evil spirits under the Blade-handling Ghost General.
Were even more afraid to move forward.
A single sword strike that killed over a dozen evil spirits, who could withstand that?
"This is bad!" Another Ghost General, who was closer to Fan Wu, sensed that something was off and felt a very bad premonition arise within. Its first instinct was to strike at Fan Wu.
Strike first to gain the upper hand!
So as to avoid the same fate as the Blade-handling Ghost General.
However.
As it was preparing to strike at Fan Wu, Fan Wu slowly turned his head to look at it. His eyes, so calm, shouldn’t have harbored much intent to kill.
But combined with that interested and cruel smile on his face, as well as an aura even more sinister than the evil spirits themselves...
It gave this closest Ghost General the chilling illusion that every hair on its body was standing on end!
It felt as though it wasn’t looking at a living person.
But rather a great Demons and Devils in human form that had barged into the Netherworld!
The oppressive feeling was terrifying.
And caused its actions.
To slow down significantly.
Fan Wu stepped toward the direction of the Ghost General, closing the distance between them to an extreme in just a few short steps until they were less than two apart!
By the time the Ghost General realized with shock that Fan Wu had suddenly closed in...
It was already too late.
The Demon-slaying Sword traced a rather spectacular arc through the air, and in a moment of careless unpreparedness, the Ghost General was bisected! Its robust spectral body was as different from soft, fragile butter as it could be when facing the Demon-slaying Sword.
Both halves of the cleaved Ghost General’s body screamed in terrifying unison.
The pain flooding its consciousness from the touch of the Demon-slaying Sword was simply unbearable.
Crevices spread over its soul body.
Giving the sensation that its form was about to shatter.
"Damn it!" A Ghost General with a long neck, witnessing these astonishing and eerie events, suddenly realized that Fan Wu was not as easy to deal with as they had imagined.
It shouted in alarm, "Don’t fight him one-on-one!"
"Don’t overestimate yourselves! Attack all at once!!"
It seemed to hold some sway among the Ghost Generals; its words were heeded by the others.
For a moment.
The remaining six unscathed Ghost Generals charged at Fan Wu in unison. At the same time, the earlier Blade-handling Ghost General, having regrouped, also lunged towards Fan Wu.
The ten Ghost Generals of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls, at this point, only the Ghost Hand General, the Seductive Fox General, and the unfortunate soul who had been sliced in half by Fan Wu’s sword and was now screaming in agony... only these three had lost the capacity to oppose Fan Wu.
Perhaps emboldened by their numbers, the evil spirits under the Ghost Generals’ command also threw themselves at Fan Wu as if their lives mattered not,
At first glance, Fan Wu now appeared as a frail boat amid the vast ocean, surrounded by surging, tumultuous waves, ready at any moment to capsize this solitary vessel.
However...
This was merely an illusion.
Fan Wu was not panicked in the slightest.
Standing alone against the assault of seven Blade-handling Ghost Generals under the command of the Ghost Kings of the Ten Halls, Fan Wu was like an unwavering mountain, choosing not to dodge the sharpness of the Ghost Generals’ attacks.
Instead, he maintained a grim smile, his arm muscles tensed just a bit.
"That’s more like it!!"
As he looked at the malevolent spirits surging towards him, his eyes finally showed a hint of excitement, no longer as listlessly uninterested as before, and his eyes not as eerily calm as they had been.
A Ghost General opened its mouth to expel a burst of black energy that transformed into a gigantic arrow and shot toward Fan Wu.
Fan Wu did not dodge or avoid.
He let the arrow, larger than a man, slam into his chest, causing the upper half of his clothes to burst apart in an instant. The black arrow collided violently with the muscles of his body, like a war drum being struck.
The massive black arrow suddenly shattered, its remnants spreading out and creating pit after pit in the ground which then began to emit faint wisps of black smoke.
Impressive power.
But.
Useless.
Yet, the Ghost Generals’ attacks were naturally not limited to this. After one attack failed to inflict significant damage on Fan Wu, the attacks from two other Ghost Generals swiftly followed!
One Ghost General’s body launched a series of eerie tentacles that, upon touching Fan Wu’s skin.
Attempted to draw out the Yang energy from Fan Wu’s body in a voraciously greedy manner.
An ordinary cultivator would have likely turned to a husk within a few breaths’ time if touched by these tentacles.
But he was Fan Wu! 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Fan Wu actually caught one of the tentacles in his hand... At the same time, another Ghost General, wielding a sinister weapon, had already plunged its tip into Fan Wu’s back.
"Hm?"
The Ghost General attacking Fan Wu from behind suddenly paused, finding to its shock that its strike hadn’t penetrated Fan Wu’s skin defense.
Fan Wu, clutching the tentacle, yanked fiercely!
The Ghost General, caught off guard, was brutally pulled over by the horrifying strength in Fan Wu’s single hand.
Fan Wu completely disregarded the attacks from the other Ghost Generals.
With one thrust of his sword,
He pierced through the body of the Ghost General that had launched the tentacles!
All of the tentacles instantly drooped down lifelessly.
Afterward,
Fan Wu tossed the Ghost General aside like a dead dog, then spun around and slashed down fiercely with his sword in a backhand stroke.
The blinding sword light dispelled vast amounts of Yin energy, the terrifying sword radiance overwhelming all in its path! The Ghost General who had tried to sneak attack from behind was enveloped by the sword light.
Its body immediately began to disintegrate!
The Ghost General’s form was rapidly melting away!
Fortunately, another Ghost General quickly intervened to save it; otherwise, the Ghost General that ambushed Fan Wu would have perished under that dreadful sword light within another breath!
Several of the Ghost Generals, with lingering fear, turned their eyes to where the sword light faded.
They saw a sword scar, thirty-some steps long, etched into the ground ahead, emanating a sword intent that repelled all demons and devils.
The other malevolent spirits gasped in the Yin energy!
Terrified and trembling!
