Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 212 - 133: Enlightenment of the Blood River, Life and Death, Prosperity and Decline
This was Xu Guang’s first time seeing a Ghost Servant.
Unlike his intrigued study, Dong Han and the others felt a chill run down their spines.
Unexpectedly... a Ghost Servant had mixed in, no wonder Liu Wan could lead the way all the way here. It must have been an unconscious desire to bring us to the lair of the super Fierce Ghost that turned her into a Ghost Servant, right?
They were being targeted by a terrifying Fierce Ghost!
At this thought, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.
This broken temple, it seemed, was where Liu Wan had brought them!
"Young Master Xu, we need to leave, this place was brought to us by Liu Wan!"
Xu Guang’s face was expressionless, just glanced at Dong Han.
"Don’t worry, this place isn’t the Fierce Ghost behind Liu Wan."
The group loosened up a bit.
Then they heard Xu Guang speak again.
"The Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land is a special place formed by the atmosphere of countless Fierce Ghosts affecting the Earth’s magnetic field. Although Fierce Ghosts don’t have intelligence, they have an instinctual sense of territory. No matter how strong a Fierce Ghost is, it will follow the rules and won’t kill on another ghost’s territory.
Don’t worry, this is the territory of another Fierce Ghost."
Upon hearing the first part of Xu Guang’s words, Dong Han and the others were about to sigh in relief, but hearing Xu Guang’s next words, their faces changed instantly.
Whoosh~!!!
A chilling wind blew through.
Everything in the temple changed; ropes appeared in the courtyard, as if descending from the sky, with bodies hanging from them!
Blood water slowly flowed down from the corpses, staining the temple courtyard red in an instant.
Dong Han and the others slowly looked up, seeing the other end of the ropes connected to a shadow faintly visible in the black fog.
That thing seemed to be moving!
It’s a ghost!
It’s the hidden Evil Ghost in this temple!
Xu Guang muttered to himself.
"No matter how strong a Fierce Ghost is, it will follow the rules and will only kill on its own territory. Even if it really wants to act, it will have its Ghost Servant lure people to its territory. On other territories, a Ghost Servant also won’t kill indiscriminately.
Interesting rules."
Xu Guang chuckled softly, slowly raised his hand.
A gigantic pillar of light followed his gesture, penetrating the heavens and earth!
This is... the Starlight!
The massive starlight pillar illuminated everything instantly, and the black and red fog quickly dissipated as the light descended.
The group finally saw the appearance of the Fierce Ghost hidden in this temple.
A monster standing several tens of meters high, with thousands of arms and heads.
The monster struggled constantly in the starlight, with black energy continuously surging out of it.
"So ugly, a mindless Fierce Ghost, but it can instinctively play tricks. Interesting."
Xu Guang sighed.
General Wei had long been dissatisfied with the monster before him, let out a low roar, and then raised his ivory, charging forward.
Bang!
This Fierce Ghost, almost equivalent to the Peak of Sixth Grade, was easily shredded into pieces by General Wei’s seemingly indestructible ivory.
In the distance, the man named Yang Wen had a trace of greed in his eyes.
The Fierce Ghost here is so strong, there must be a lot of Spirit Crystals.
He looked at Dong Han, a strange red light flashed in his eyes.
Dong Han and another, Gu Ping, seemed to have realized this too, the three exchanged glances, then looked at Xu Guang and quietly moved towards the location of the Fierce Ghost.
Along the way, there were corpses and blood everywhere, but the scent of Spirit Crystals made the three nearly lose their minds.
Walking the Jianghu, they willingly served under the Xu Family in Shouyang Prefecture, all for the sake of Spirit Crystals.
The Spirit Crystals before them could at least elevate their cultivation to the next level.
Then they could leave Zouchuan Dao and join a noble family in another state...
They accelerated their pace, heading towards the monks’ quarters behind the temple.
"Why are you all in such a hurry?"
A figure wrapped in starlight stood directly in front of them.
Xu Guang slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with emotion.
"Being with the Ghost Servant for long enough, and indeed the mind starts to change, is this what’s called the deceptive heart of man?"
Facing the three Sixth Grades, at most Dong Han was only at Sixth Grade Great Cultivation.
Xu Guang took a step forward, Horizontal Pressure suddenly radiated. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
A sword emerged from the void.
The three heads slowly fell from their necks.
In the process of falling, they suddenly exploded.
No Celestial Register.
Nothing but poor ghosts.
...
A moment later.
Xu Guang was tallying the harvest from the temple’s ghosts and spirits.
Fifty-eight Spirit Crystals.
’It’s said that the terrifying Fierce Ghosts capable of subduing Ghost Servants have Spirit Crystal mines in their lairs...’
He actually wanted to see the Fierce Ghost behind Liu Wan, but for now, he lacked any certainty.
Continuing on.
He unexpectedly encountered the seemingly endless Blood River, where countless howls echoed above it.
’The Chujiang River is calm, but its branch flowing through the Ghostly Land is anything but calm.’
Xu Guang sighed.
"Ah Wei, did you sense the aura of the Purple Cloud?"
General Wei nodded, looking to the other side of the Blood River.
In the Ghostly Land, Xu Guang’s Divine Thought was suppressed and couldn’t cross the nearly hundred-meter-wide Blood River.
’I wonder if Ah Wei can cross the river directly.’
He suddenly halted, his expression showing a trace of intrigue.
The inspiration he felt while walking by the Chujiang River suddenly resurfaced.
His eyes showed a hint of hollowness, as if immersed in his world.
He then slowly walked toward the distant Blood River.
Strands of Qi Force twisted and spiraled across his body, step by step, as if on the verge of jumping into the river.
With ghostly shadows swaying in the void above the river, bared fangs and claws, like hunters waiting for prey.
