Chapter 793: Chapter 97: Tier Four Ghost King, the Power of the Cyan Ape! (Part 2)

"Oh, this is the token of True Monarch Xingyue!"

As he spoke, he took out another blue-black token.

Zhou Xun took the token, examined it, nodded, and his expression became extremely solemn,

"Very well, I understand the matter. Please reply to True Monarch Xingyue and say I will rush over immediately!"

Then, Master Dongyuan took his leave and returned to Dongqi City,

while Zhou Xun conveyed the message to True Monarch Tianci and True Monarch Iron Mountain, and they discussed a strategy together.

...

"Younger Brother Zhou, you called us urgently, did something major happen?"

As soon as he entered, True Monarch Tianci inquired.

"Daoist Brother is correct!" Zhou Xun nodded and directly explained the matter of the Tier Four Ghost King.

True Monarch Tianci was greatly shocked upon hearing this,

"Is this really true?"

"This was personally investigated by Master Xingyue, it should not be false!" Zhou Xun replied.

"If so, then Eastern Wilderness might have serious trouble!" True Monarch Tianci sighed.

"There are nearly seventy ghostly mists in Eastern Wilderness. If each place has a Tier Four Ghost King appearing, with our current power in Eastern Wilderness, how can we resist!"

"The current question is to thoroughly investigate whether the place where the Tier Four Ghost King appears is only in Dongqi City or if every place has one,"

"If every place does, then we might have to seek aid from Central Continent!" Zhou Xun pondered.

"The invasion of the Ghost Realm is a major issue for the entire Human Realm. According to Master Yun Ku’s kindness, he should support us!" True Monarch Iron Mountain added.

"Alright, now we will split into three groups. I will be responsible for both locations in Dongqi City, and the two Daoist Brothers can handle matters on their own and choose any location!"

After speaking, Zhou Xun did not linger and went straight to the teleportation array.

...

Soon, Zhou Xun arrived at Dongqi City,

At this time, Dongqi City was in a high state of alert, the mountain defense war had begun, and the Guard Army had all come to the city walls, with serious expressions.

"Alliance Leader, you’ve arrived!"

Seeing Zhou Xun’s figure, True Monarch Xingyue appeared extremely pleased and let out a sigh of relief.

To him, it felt like he found a backbone.

"How are things?"

"Currently unknown, but the ghostly mist in the east shows signs of further expansion, probably due to that Tier Four Ghost King!"

"You stay here to guard, if there is any movement in that northeastern direction, notify me immediately!" Zhou Xun instructed,

then his figure flashed, and he appeared outside the city, transforming into a spirit light, speeding towards the east,

In just an hour, Zhou Xun saw a black line appear far away, covering the sky, seemingly endless.

At the same time, the sounds of ghostly wailing and howling emerged.

"It seems True Monarch Xingyue was right, the ghostly mist has indeed started to expand again!"

He pinched a spell with both hands, pointed it at himself,

and with a flash of thunder light,

a blue-purple light shield enveloped his entire body, with arcs of thunder flickering.

As the ghostly mist drew closer, a strong sense of oppression came, as if the entire sky was crashing down on him,

Suddenly!

The environment in front of him darkened,

Zhou Xun found himself engulfed by the ghostly mist, surrounded by complete darkness everywhere,

even his divine sense was significantly compressed.

At the same time, crackling sounds came to his ears, which was the result of the thunder light and ghosts mutually consuming each other.

Just then, a ripple appeared not far ahead, followed by the emergence of ghostly figures of various shapes,

emitting extremely sharp cries.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun sneered, and with a wave of his hand,

a hundred streaks of thunder light exploded,

then shot towards those ghostly figures, and wherever they passed, the ghostly mist was cleared, leaving hundreds of tunnels,

immediately after,

"Boom!"

all the thunder light burst out instantly, accompanied by the ghostly creatures’ shrill screams, annihilating them completely.

leaving behind an empty space thousands of feet wide.

Like this, Zhou Xun advanced while eliminating all the ghost groups along the way,

flying deep for a full twenty thousand miles.

Suddenly, an extremely strong suppression appeared ahead, and Zhou Xun let out a sigh of relief,

"Finally, it appears!"

Soon, that suppression came within a thousand feet in front of him.

Two humanoid ghostly creatures over ten feet tall, with bull horns on their heads and wings on their backs, appeared in front of him.

"Human cultivator, very good, they say the Nascent Soul of a human is highly nourishing, today my brother and I are in for a treat,"

"Hehehe!"

The two Ghost Kings bared their ghastly white teeth, reflecting a chilling light.

"Two Ghost Kings, do you really think you can simply take Zhou Mou!"

"I’ve heard even your Ghost Pearls are quite valuable. Today, I’ll let you taste the power of the majestic Celestial Thunder!"

With that, he opened his mouth,

and seventy-two Thunder Seeds, bright as meteors, flew out in an instant, occupying nearly a ten thousand feet space,

enveloping the two Ghost Kings within.

Immediately after, Zhou Xun changed his spell, pointing forward,

"Boom!"

The ghostly mist within the Thunder Seeds dissipated in an instant, and then dark clouds gathered in the sky, thunder light flickering,

a vast divine pressure emanated,

locking the two Ghost Kings below in place!

This was precisely Zhou Xun’s ’Nine Heavens of Tribulation Thunder’!

"You are..... a Thunder Cultivator!"

Sensing this, the two Ghost Kings instantly became flustered. They could feel,

this power was beyond what they could withstand!

Just as Zhou Xun was about to make a move,

a tremor came from the storage bag at his waist,

"Xiaoqing?"

Zhou Xun was surprised, knowing that it had been asleep for many years, and hadn’t awoken,

so how did it suddenly wake up now!

With this thought, Zhou Xun patted his waist and took out the Ghost Banner,

then struck it towards the ground!

A beam of cyan light flew out, transforming into a Cyan Ape about a zhang in size, with its fur imbued with strands of golden light,

thicker than last time, clearly its power had increased.

The moment the Cyan Ape appeared, it seemed extremely excited,

even more so than when Zhou Xun previously killed the True Monarch Nascent Soul and absorbed the Nascent Soul Cultivator’s soul.

At the same time, its gaze fixed on a certain spot ahead, then excitedly pounded its nose a few times.

And the faces of those two Ghost Kings changed instantly, showing a trace of panic, as if a mouse had seen a cat!

"It’s Soul-Devouring, the Holy Beast Soul-Devouring!"

"Run!"

Their voices were extremely shrill, attempting to flee backwards.

But how could the Cyan Ape give them such an opportunity,

it pounded its broad nose once,

a streak of cyan light flew out, straight towards the dense black fog ahead.

Wherever the cyan light reached, the black mist seemed to meet its bane and dissipated one after another.

Then, one of the Ghost Kings was enveloped within!

"Ah!"

This Ghost King began to burn on the surface, wisps of black mist evaporating, and it rolled, trying to escape, but could not!

Seeing this, the Cyan Ape became even more excited, its nose twitching again, the cyan light retracting, quickly pulling the ghost shadow back.

It grew smaller and smaller, finally drilling into its nose.

The little monkey then patted its belly, seemingly very satisfied, with a look of insatiability.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun showed a hint of surprise.

This was a Tier Four Ghost King!

In terms of power, it was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Cultivator, wasn’t it known that Master Xingyue personally battled with one and

still couldn’t gain the upper hand, yet under the Cyan Ape, it couldn’t resist at all,

and was devoured alive in an instant!

"In this manner, even if a few more Ghost Kings appear, they are but appetizers for the Cyan Ape!"

Soon, the other Ghost King also failed to escape, becoming a meal inside the belly of the Cyan Ape.

Having eaten the two Ghost Kings,

the Cyan Ape appeared extremely satisfied, patting its belly to indicate it was full.

However, Zhou Xun had no intention of putting it away.

Since two Ghost Kings appeared here, who knows if a third or a fourth might appear,

given the Cyan Ape’s strong restraining ability over them, letting it stay would make things much easier for himself.

"Let’s go, follow me and take a look!"

With a flash of its form, the Cyan Ape transformed into a five-inch size, sitting on Zhou Xun’s shoulder,

following him towards the source of the ghostly mist,

to investigate what had transpired there!
