The sound shook the heavens, causing the clouds to churn and surge. It seemed as though the entire space would be crushed under the pressure of the heavenly force.

Mo Wen’s figure froze as he looked in shock towards the sky. He could not resist the imposing pressure that came from the void. It was like an order from Heaven.

In the cleft space, all the Huatian Palace’s ancient martial art practitioners stopped what they were doing and frantically looked up at the sky in astonishment.

Under the imposing pressure, nobody dared to act recklessly.

“You pigs of the Huatian Palace, death is at your door! Did you think that you could ruin the sacrifice by sending a few Huatian Palace veterans? Did you truly believe that this sacrificial ritual would be so easy to stop? To carry out the sacred rite, the entire Ghost Lair will spare no cost, including the most powerful individual in the entire Ghost Lair, the Ghost King.”

The young master of the Ghost Lair lifted his head to the sky and laughed. He looked playfully at the Huatian Palace’s ancient martial art practitioners, as though he was looking at a group of dead people.

A finger that looked like a supporting pillar of heaven suddenly emerged from the layer of clouds in the sky. It slowly descended to the ground. It was as though an ancient giant had extended a finger in order to squash a group of tiny ants.

Mo Wen’s figure trembled slightly. He was stunned to discover that he could not evade the giant finger at all. He could not even slightly move his body!

As the finger came down, almost everyone was within its attack range. More than fifty of the Huatian Palace’s ancient martial art practitioners felt a lethal danger at the same time.

In the dark space, Mo Qingge raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at Mo Qingtian beside her.

“Tian’er, something has happened outside. I need to go and check it out. Will it be a problem if I leave this grand commander Chu Xiao to you?”

“Sister, although I sealed my cultivation before I came out, I can still handle a person like Chu Xiao.” Mo Qingtian smiled indifferently. An unparalleled aura emanated from his body. It was actually not weaker than that of Mo Qingge. He took one step forward and blocked Chu Xiao.

“You…” Chu Xiao was shocked and immediately turned pale. He had not expected that this weird-looking youth would actually have such frightening cultivation. Two Tide Changing Realm strong practitioners had appeared in the Huatian Palace. An ominous feeling suddenly welled up inside of him.

Mo Qingge became a beam of white light. She crashed through the barrier of the dark space and appeared in the cleft space outside.

“What cultivation is that?” Mo Wen was shocked. The pressure that was like that of a heavenly deity and had surpassed his comprehension. Could it be that he was about to die here? Helplessly, Mo Wen tried to think of a strategy. It seemed that against such an existence, any resistance was futile.

Just as everyone felt that death was imminent, a beam of white light penetrated the empty space. It traversed a thousand kilometers in an instant and crashed straight into the giant finger, shattering it instantly.

A silhouette dressed in white, fluttering clothes silently appeared above the ancient city. It was Mo Qingge.

“Ghost King Jiang Yan. As I expected, you are actually still alive.”

Mo Qingge’s gaze pierced the empty space. Her white clothes fluttered as she looked as indifferent as a Tianshan Mountain snow lotus.

In the Ghost Lair, aside from the commanders and the grand commander, there was one overall ruler called the Ghost King. The identity of the Ghost King would change from time to time, but there was only ever one Ghost King.

Jiang Yan had become the Ghost Lair’s Ghost King more than a hundred years ago. He had controlled the Ghost Lair for a few centuries and his cultivation was sky-high. However, one hundred and twenty years ago, Jiang Yan was ambushed by the Huatian Palace and died at the hands of the Huatian Palace Second Palace Lord. The Ghost Lair was without a leader and soon faded into oblivion. Only in recent years had the Ghost Lair begun to be active again.

Who would have thought that Jiang Yan, who had seemingly died at the hands of the Huatian Palace, was actually still alive?

“You are Mo Qingge, the Deputy Director of the Huatian Palace Senate. Rumor has it that you are the most likely candidate to contend for the position of the Huatian Palace Grand Palace Lord.”

A voice sounded from the cloud layer. The next moment, a dark silhouette appeared in the sky above. The silhouette seemed ethereal, like an ever-changing shadow that made it hard for others to identify who it was.

Once the silhouette appeared, its gaze was fixed on Mo Qingge. It had a vengeful murderous intent as deep as the sea in its eyes. The Huatian Palace members all needed to die.

“Ghost King, I am very intrigued. Wasn’t your soul scattered back then?” Mo Qingge felt very curious. How could Jiang Yan still be alive?

“By the blessing of your Huatian Palace, not only did I not die, my cultivation has grown stronger. Is that b*tch Nie Wuxin still alive? I will certainly pay her back with interest,” Ghost King Jiang Yan said sinisterly.

A century ago, he had unleashed a secret technique to fake his death, escaping certain death by the skin of his teeth. If he did not get revenge now, he would not be at peace in this lifetime.

“Ghost King Jiang Yan, Palace Lord Nie has enjoyed a much better existence than you have. Back then, you were lucky and did not die. That is your good fortune. Could it be that you want to die for real right now?” Mo Qingge asked.

“Haha! You think you can kill me on your own?” Ghost King Jiang Yan suddenly laughed aloud. The gaze he gave Mo Qingge was full of disdain.

“Chu Xiao is a piece of trash. He can’t even hold back a woman. Since it has come to this, I’ll send you to your grave.”

Ghost King Jiang Yan extended his hand and flicked it. The heavens and the earth suddenly darkened. Dark clouds covered the sky. A giant ghost head appeared in the sky, with the head of a bull and ghostly eyes. It opened its mouth with a hideous expression. It seemed as though it could swallow the entire world in one gulp.

Howl!

The hideous ghost raised its head and howled at the sky. Then, it bit down towards Mo Qingge. Ghost Qi covered the sky and was as cold as ice.

“Our Huatian Palace Second Palace Lord is also a woman. Who was it that almost died at her hands a century ago?”

Mo Qingge slowly extended her white jade hand. An immaculate white lotus emerged from her palm. The immaculate lotus became a gleaming ancient sword. With a slash, she cleaved the ghost head in two.

“The Divine Lotus Ancient Sword! You only have intermediate stage Tide Changing Realm cultivation; how could you possibly summon the Divine Lotus Ancient Sword?”

Jiang Yan was shocked. The Divine Lotus Ancient Sword was a great magical power of the Huatian Palace. Once this sword appeared, countless strong practitioners of the heretic forces were slashed down. As the Ghost Lair’s Ghost King, he had a deep impression of this weapon. However, in the Huatian Palace, aside from a few Palace Lords, there was most likely no one else that could master this remarkable power.

Mo Qingge flicked her finger. The snow-white Divine Lotus Ancient Sword became a jade dragon. It directly ascended into the heavens and violently crashed towards Jiang Yan.

“I want to see what realm you have practiced the Divine Lotus Ancient Sword to. Or is it just for show?” Jiang Yan coldly snorted. His entire being suddenly became larger, instantly becoming more than a hundred meters tall. His body was covered in layers of scales and his two arms became beast claws, giving him the appearance of a prehistoric beast. The magical power which had caused such a bizarre phenomenon was unknown to those watching. Ghost King Jiang Yan’s Qi and blood covered the sky. It was as though he was an absolute demon king.

His punch crashed out and collided with the jade dragon.

Rumble!

The whole space seemed to shake for a moment. Then, it crumbled at a speed that the naked eye could follow. Dust on the floor was stirred up. In the dark, it was as though the surrounding space was being continuously consumed.

To Mo Wen’s astonishment, the clash between Mo Qingge and Ghost King Jiang Yan had caused half of the cleft space to collapse. Thankfully, the ancient city was located at the center of the cleft space. So even though the surrounding space had all collapsed, the ancient city was not affected. However, if the two continued to fight, Mo Wen was certain that this cleft space would not last for long.

Ghost King Jiang Yan had crushed the attack from the Divine Lotus Ancient Sword with a punch. However, he was pushed backward by a few hundred meters due to the recoil. The might of their attacks was almost equal.

Jiang Yan had the cultivation at the pinnacle of the Tide Changing Realm, two realms higher than that of Mo Qingge. Yet, in the end, he did not gain any advantage from exchanging blows with her.

“D*mn it!” Staring at the half-collapsed space, Ghost King Jiang Yan’s expression was surly. He stared coldly at Mo Qingge, not daring to attack recklessly.

“Why? Did you only think of the possibility of this space collapsing completely now?” Mo Qingge asked plainly. She was indifferent about the space collapsing. If the cleft space collapsed, she could retreat with everyone from the Huatian Palace. With her cultivation, it was not a hard task for her to escape from here.

However, for the Ghost Lair, it was different. Once the cleft space collapsed, it would be impossible for them to continue their sacred rite.

“Humph. Don’t you dare think that you can threaten me.” Ghost King Jiang Yan coldly snorted. Suddenly, he made a grab and not far away, the dark space formed using the Ten Thousand Soul Banner shattered. A black flag flew out from the space, landing in Ghost King Jiang Yan’s hand. Ghost King Jiang Yan was the king of the Ghost Lair. Naturally, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner was under his control.

The sacred rite was an utmost important mission for the Ghost Lair. Naturally, they would have come prepared. Once the Ten Thousand Soul Banner landed in Ghost King Jiang Yan’s hand, it emitted dazzling light.

The flag transformed into a huge canopy, enveloping the entire ancient city. Sinister winds gushed. At the same time, huge stone pillars, a few kilometers in diameter, shot up from the ground. There were a total of a hundred and eight stone pillars, surrounding the whole ancient city.

Mysterious runes were carved on every stone pillar. The hundred and eight stone pillars connected and formed a gigantic stratagem.

“The Hades Heavenly Ghost Stratagem!” A glint of surprise flashed in Mo Qingge’s eyes. There was actually such a terrifying stratagem from the Underworld hidden around the ancient city! It was difficult to set up this stratagem. Indeed, the Ghost Lair had gone all out for this sacred rite.

“You have good eyes.” Ghost King Jiang Yan glanced at Mo Qingge, surprised. To his surprise, she had actually recognized this stratagem. In reality, the Ghost Lair had not known about the existence of the Hades Heavenly Ghost Stratagem before this. The Underworld had passed him this stratagem across realms in preparation for the sacred rite.

Initially, he thought that no one from the Huatian Palace would know about this stratagem. Most likely even the Huatian Palace Palace Lords did not know about it. However, Mo Qingge had been able to identify it with a glance.

“No wonder the Ghost Lair is willing to pay such a high price. Even you, who have remained hidden for a hundred years, have appeared. I suppose this matter is most likely related to the Underworld?” Mo Qingge’s facial expression turned slightly serious. If the Underworld was involved, things would be more.

“Your Huatian Palace has ruled for so many years. You should be satisfied and shouldn’t expect more.”

The Ghost King laughed sinisterly. He waved the Ten Thousand Soul Banner once. Immediately, sinister winds swept up and streaks of Hades Qi emerged from the ground, quickly permeating the surrounding area.

Originally, there was no moon in the cleft space; however, right now, a full moon had appeared in the sky. The full moon was blood red in color instead of white.

A figure which looked like an ultimate demon was reflected in the crimson moon. The figure was like the demon king from Hell. An unparalleled evil aura hovered over the ancient city, causing everyone to shiver uncontrollably.

“The Hades Heavenly Ghost!” Mo Qingge’s facial expression was now extremely serious.
