Chapter 2056 - 1919: Who Is Stronger, Who Is Weaker

Chapter 2056: Chapter 1919: Who Is Stronger, Who Is Weaker

An hour later, Ye Fan and the others found the entrance and entered the fourth small world of the Emperor Palace.

As soon as they entered, everyone’s faces changed; this place was too terrifying!

The hills and fields were full of ghosts, and the eerie ghost cries made one’s scalp tingle.

What kind of world is this!

It was incomprehensible, shadows everywhere, wild corpses filling every inch of land like grass and trees.

Countless black ghostly hands waved like endless wild grass; the sinister cold made one shiver uncontrollably.

"Have we arrived in Hell?"

Li Yu’er was dumbfounded on the spot, the corners of her mouth twitching incessantly.

"With corpse soldiers and ghost generals everywhere, how are we supposed to survive?"

Wen TaDou and others were equally aghast. Facing so many corpse soldiers and ghost generals, no one could remain calm.

The fur on Bai Yan wolf’s body stood on end, howling incessantly. The sight was too horrifying, making it unbelievable.

At that moment, everyone was stunned.

It was all so unreal, like a nightmare. They had seen corpse soldiers before, but never so many at once.

Is this still the Human Realm? Calling it Hell would not be an exaggeration; this is a paradise for corpse soldiers and ghost generals!

Moreover, these soldiers were extremely powerful, with the weakest at the Mid-Stage of Lord Realm, and some ghost generals could even rival strong people of the Venerable Realm. So many gathered together could exhaust them to death even without fighting.

Furthermore, they saw a mountain resembling a volcano ahead, shrouded in banded demon fog, emitting black qi from the crater. It was filled with evil corpses crawling outward.

Gloomy clouds hung low, filled with corpse qi. None of the earlier trialists who entered survived; all were torn apart by corpse soldiers and ghost generals.

"Baldy, it’s your turn." The Great Demon pushed Yu chanzi to lead the way and purify the corpse ghosts.

The Buddhist sect’s great divine power is the nemesis of all evil creatures. As the Buddha, Yu chanzi should naturally know some methods to purify corpse ghosts.

"With so many corpse ghosts, even if I die from exhaustion, I couldn’t purify them all!" Yu chanzi’s face fell, sweat beading on his shiny bald head.

Not only them, but Martial Immortal, Xiao Peng Emperor, Ba Cangtian, and others were also attacked by corpse soldiers and ghost generals, repeatedly cursing as the holy weapon vibrations shook the heavens and earth.

One ancient corpse after another, one evil ghost after another, their bodies desiccated, skin tight against bones, hollow eyes, entirely blackened, with claws as long as iron hooks, vicious beyond measure.

"Ah..."

Constant screams echoed, clearly indicating that someone was suffering, torn apart by the corpse ghosts, their divine soul eroded.

"Boom!"

Yu chanzi cast the Buddhist sect’s great divine power, unleashing a field of Buddha Light, purifying dozens of corpse ghosts.

However, this was to no avail, as there were too many corpse soldiers, with grinding noises constantly echoing. Their Black Iron hook-like claws clashed, emitting sparks.

Yu chanzi was also flustered. With so many corpse soldiers and ghost generals, even purifying just a portion might waste him.

Simultaneously, Ye Fan and others also made their moves, slaying corpse soldiers in hopes of clearing a path forward.

"Boom!"

The holy might surged as Martial Immortal went berserk, wielding a Holy Sword emitting Infinite Holy Light, slashing horizontally and vertically, cutting down swathes of corpse soldiers.

"Swoosh!"

An Immortal Light pierced through the heavens and earth, as Xiao Peng Emperor wielded a golden great bow, shooting a Light Arrow with a long tail, penetrating a ghost general.

"Ow..."

The ghost general let out a horrific scream like two pieces of metal scraping together, painfully piercing ears. Many couldn’t help but cover their ears to avoid eardrum rupture.

"Kill those who block my way!"

Xiao Peng Emperor was immensely dominant, akin to a War God, his Divine Bow continually shooting Light Arrows, slaying all the corpse soldiers and ghost generals blocking his path.

Very soon, he led his followers through the fourth level of the Emperor Palace, found the entrance, and entered the Fifth Level.

"Puff!"

Martial Immortal, exceedingly brave, forcefully twisted off a powerful ghost general’s head, kicked it to explode, then wielded the Holy Sword as if mowing down grass, slicing apart hordes of corpse soldiers, and led his followers into the Fifth Level of the Emperor Palace.

However, during this process, many of his followers also died in battle, being exploded alive by corpse soldiers and ghost generals.

Almost simultaneously, Ba Cangtian also unleashed his power. Previously having his fist shattered by a blow from Ye Fan, he was seething. The corpse soldiers and ghost generals became his punching bags, all being blasted apart.

"Bang!"

A powerful ghost general was shattered to pieces under his fist, black contaminated blood splattering all over him.

Ba Cangtian paid no heed, marching straight through the corpse soldiers, carrying several attached corpse soldiers into the Fifth Level of the Emperor Palace.

His followers also suffered many casualties, but Xin Buzu and Fairy Zi Ying were still around, closely following him into the fifth level.

"Is this the Emperor Palace or Yama Palace! How can there be so many corpse soldiers and ghost generals?"

Wen TaDou cursed. His close combat ability was inherently weak, making him look terribly woeful, his clothes tore into strips by the ghost claws of corpse soldiers, narrowly escaping injury.

At this point, words were futile; everyone began battling the ghosts, wielding various ancient weapons and magical treasures.

The slightly weaker cultivators were in dire straits. Without the protection of Young Supremes, they stood no chance against the sheer numbers of corpse soldiers and ghost generals, constantly falling and being torn apart.

Screams kept echoing, too many corpse soldiers, with some ghost generals comparable to Venerable Realm strong people, making it impossible for many trialists to break through.

"Boom!"

Ye Fan unleashed the Thunderclap Treasure Skill, creating a field of thunder light, descending like Heavenly Punishment, instantly clearing out a large area.

This kind of Corpse Ghost is born against the heavens, not recognized by the Heavenly Dao, and Thunder is its nemesis.

"Hoo!"

The Golden Divine Dragon, that little scoundrel, also spewed out a vast expanse of Golden True Fire, burning a large area, making a "sizzle sizzle" sound as corpse oil bubbled out from the ghost’s body.

"Jie jie..."

The Golden Divine Dragon laughed weirdly, as if a thousand-year-old demon was emerging, saying: "What Corpse Soldiers and Ghost Generals, they are powerless before my Golden True Fire."

"Hum!"

The Peacock’s face was stern, directly sacrificing the Five-Colored Divine Light, sweeping away large numbers of Corpse Soldiers unable to approach.

"Thunder Power? This King has it too."

The Bai Yan wolf was unwilling to be outdone, having been frightened by these Corpse Ghosts earlier which made it feel it lost face, it now exerted extra effort, the Purple Gold Bell vibrating, scattering a sheet of Lightning Tribulation, instantly turning a large number of Corpse Ghosts to ashes.

Yue Haoyu and the others pulled and tugged, taking off one severed ghost hand after another from their bodies, there were just too many ghosts before, they could kill endlessly, though they were powerful and shattered thousands, they were still overwhelmed.

"Aoo!"

A dozen Ghost Generals arrived simultaneously, each with disheveled hair, blue glow shining in the hollows of their eyes.

"Boom!"

A dozen Ghost Generals attacked simultaneously, unleashing mountain-crushing force towards Ye Fan.

Because they sensed the too-great threat Ye Fan posed to them, this Thunder Power is their nemesis, if not slain, it would be deadly for them.

If a dozen Ghost Generals equivalent to Venerable Realm attack simultaneously, it’s akin to a dozen Saint Lords attacking simultaneously, a sure kill for a cultivator not yet become a Saint at Lord Realm.

"Whish!"

Ye Fan was unafraid, stepping on the Chasing Star Step, like an illusion, instantly broke out of their attack range.

Immediately, he surged with momentum, punched out, unleashing a sheet of thunder light, rumbling continuously, instantly turning a Ghost General to dust.

The momentum did not diminish, Punch Ray swept hundreds of meters, thousands of Corpse Soldiers rapidly dissipating like melting snow under a scorching sun.

This scene left everyone stunned, many began to move towards him, hoping to leverage Ye Fan’s power to navigate this hellish Emperor Palace.

"Bang!"

Another Ghost General was smashed by Ye Fan’s punch, corpse fragments flew, black blood splattered.

"Aoo..."

The remaining Ghost Generals were frightened, retreating in a flurry, while emitting strange syllables from their mouths.

As they uttered these strange syllables, the Corpse Soldiers in front of Ye Fan retreated, unbelievably giving way voluntarily, clearing a path for him.

"Go!"

Since these Corpse Soldiers voluntarily made way, Ye Fan did not wish to waste more combat power, taking the lead towards the Fifth Level Emperor Palace.

Yue Haoyu and the others followed closely, Bai Yan wolf watched the rear, Purple Gold Bell hung overhead, emitting terrifying Thunderbolt Aura, intimidating those Corpse Ghosts.

Witnessing this, other Trialists were filled with not only shock but envy and resentment.

They felt Ye Fan was simply the fortunate star of Linxian Ancient Star, as long as he was there, no problem remained unsolved.

How strong were these Corpse Soldiers and Ghost Generals? Yet in Ye Fan’s hands, they were now powerless, voluntarily clearing the way.

The faces of those from Jiang Sheng Star turned very sour, they were trapped here, unable to move an inch, losing several companions.

However, Ye Fan and his group passed strongly without the slightest loss, Corpse Ghosts dared not intercept, the disparity was immense.

Eventually, they still hurriedly followed the path Ye Fan paved, for the Corpse Ghosts were willing to yield to Ye Fan’s group but would never for them.

Other Trialists understood this, quickly following Ye Fan’s footsteps, passing as swiftly as possible into the next level.

These Corpse Ghosts were either intimidated by Ye Fan or whatever, they reacted sluggishly, only becoming alert when the Trialists almost all passed.

The fierce battle erupted once more, those Trialists turned pale, fighting desperately for their lives, killing Corpse Soldiers and rushing to the entrance of the next level.

At this moment, they only regretted they weren’t specialized in speed, or they could have passed earlier and not been blocked at the door.

Of course, Ye Fan and his group knew none of this.

Now, they had entered the Fifth Level Emperor Palace, where there were no Corpse Ghosts, but some strong Fierce Beasts far stronger than the Corpse Ghosts of the Fourth Level.

However, under the intimidating aura of the Golden Divine Dragon as a Divine Beast, all Fierce Beasts were as docile as kittens, staying far away, not daring to ambush them.

Ye Fan’s group was followed by several Trialists, all wanting to bask in Ye Fan’s glory, avoiding clashes with strong Fierce Beasts.

After all, in this dangerous underground palace, preserving strength as much as possible could ensure better chances of seizing opportunities later.

To this, Ye Fan’s group was indifferent, allowing their followers.

"Is that the scent of Immortal Elixir?"

Suddenly, while walking ahead, Bai Yan wolf took a deep sniff, eyes shining brightly, dashed forward like lightning.

"Dead wolf, stand still." Ye Fan grabbed its tail, pulling it back.

This dead wolf was good in everything except its greedy habit which was exasperating, as long as there was treasure, regardless of its use, it wanted to snatch it.

"Immortal Elixir, Immortal Elixir!"

Bai Yan wolf panicked, struggling desperately, its big paw pointed forward.
