Chapter 1482 - 1481: Slaying the Ghost with a Single Sword

Chapter 1482: Chapter 1481: Slaying the Ghost with a Single Sword

At the moment Ling Chen supported Hong Ye’s body, the black light beam spat out from the Green-faced Ghost’s mouth suddenly shot fiercely toward them!

However, at this moment, Ling Chen slowly raised his head. He merely lifted his hand, spread his fingers, and casually blocked the incoming fierce black light beam in front of him!

"Courting death!"

The Green-faced Ghost’s giant copper bell-like eyes showed a hint of cruelty. A mere mortal dared to use his flesh body to block its attack—he probably doesn’t understand the meaning of death!

Boom!

The black light beam was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, it struck Ling Chen’s palm. The terrifying wave instantly swept out madly, enveloping the entire area within a hundred meters, transforming it into a black ocean.

"A mantis trying to stop a chariot."

Heize Seimei also sneered. Even if Ling Chen were in peak condition, he probably wouldn’t be a match for the Green-faced Ghost’s true form, let alone now when Ling Chen is like a defeated dog—how could he possibly withstand the Green-faced Ghost’s assault?

However, in the next moment, his smile suddenly froze because, as the black light spread, Ling Chen’s figure emerged unscathed!

"What?"

Heize Seimei and the other members of Izumo Shrine were all dumbfounded, finding it hard to believe as they watched Ling Chen step out from the black fog.

"This kid, he’s become somewhat different!"

It was at this moment that Heize Seimei finally noticed the anomaly with Ling Chen. The aura the latter was emitting now bore no semblance to his previous weak and feeble state; it felt as if he had become a completely different person, radiating an extraordinarily astonishing wave of energy!

This wave of energy gave people a strong mental pressure, as if it came from an upper echelon, not belonging to someone of Ling Chen’s level!

"Who on earth is this kid?"

Even the true form of the Green-faced Ghost was gazing at Ling Chen with disbelief, as the aura released from Ling Chen made it feel a sense of oppression—a feeling that even the Bone Woman couldn’t give.

"Did he just deflect an attack from the true form of the Green-faced Ghost with a single hand?"

Fengmo Tianchuan, not far off, couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart upon witnessing this scene. It seems that even if he could defeat Hong Ye earlier, he couldn’t get past Ling Chen. What kind of monster is this kid, that after a mutual destruction with Shang Quan Yi Xin, he could still burst forth such a powerful aura?

"Why does this wave feel somewhat familiar?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

Wugong Shou He and other powerhouses of the Wugong family had eyes flickering with amazement. From Ling Chen, they seemed to sense a familiar wave, causing their blood to boil, and their bloodline deep inside to resonate intensely, as if summoned.

At this moment, standing before them was not Ling Chen, but their Wugong family’s ancestor, a figure of unparalleled talent!

Ling Chen’s gaze, sharp as a sword, fell on the massive body of the Green-faced Ghost, his cool voice ringing out in mid-air, "The Human Emperor’s last glory on the Tianyuan Continent will end with slaying you, this Ghost God, as the grand finale..."

As his words fell, with a "whoosh," Ling Chen’s body suddenly shot toward the sky, at the same time the Soul Destroying Sword at his waist unsheathed abruptly. Black lines started to crazily erode Ling Chen’s palm, trying to counteract him!

However, Ling Chen at this moment was entirely unaffected. Although the Soul Destroying Sword’s counteraction had previously caused him severe harm, it could no longer do him any harm now!

Then with an aerial swing, a terrifying black sword mark spanned the void, and the Thousand Zang Destruction Sword Light slashed down fiercely, as if to cleave the ground below in two!

"Not good!"

The Green-faced Ghost, bearing the brunt of it, naturally sensed the terror of Ling Chen’s sword. Its scalp tingled, and its arms suddenly rose, condensing a black giant shield in front of itself!

Thud!

The black Sword Light struck the giant shield, creating a deafening collision sound. But in the next moment, the black giant shield shattered explosively, and the Thousand Zang Destruction Sword Light slashed mercilessly at the massive body of the Green-faced Ghost.

Ah!

With a scream, the Green-faced Ghost’s enormous body was split apart, though the Sword Light only made it halfway before it could no longer continue. Strands of eerie black light swiftly entwined around it, like little snakes, frantically offsetting the terrifying destructive power of the sword!

"How is it possible that Lord Green-faced God couldn’t withstand even one sword strike?"

Heize Seimei had a ghost-seeing expression. This was the true form of the Green-faced Ghost with strength comparable to a High-rank Saint. Even powerful figures such as Fengmo Tianchuan and Shang Quan Yi Xin could not compete against the Green-faced Ghost’s true form.

They thought that the appearance of the Green-faced Ghost would easily crush Ling Chen and Hong Ye, but unexpectedly, it was the Green-faced Ghost that got its body shattered by this sword, unable to raise its head!

"Could this be the power of the Cloud Monarch!"

Tu Yumen’s eyes were straight, staring greedily at Ling Chen in the air. He didn’t know this was the result of the Human Emperor burning his will, mistaking it for the Cloud Monarch’s legacy. The desire to obtain such power consumed him, thinking that if he possessed it, he would make earth-shattering changes, surpassing even Heize Seimei to become Yingzhou’s number one Onmyoji.

Such a treasure, fallen into Ling Chen’s hands, was truly casting pearls before swine, a waste of resources.

"Then we can’t let this kid go!"

Heize Seimei’s eyes suddenly darkened. Today, to deal with Ling Chen, he not only mobilized most of Izumo Shrine’s forces but also summoned the true form of the Green-faced Ghost using the shrine. If this still couldn’t deal with Ling Chen, then Izumo Shrine would have no face to stand in Yingzhou in the future!

The legacy of the Cloud Monarch, the power of the Bone Woman, the Eight-chi Kongo Jade—all supposed to be within his grasp!

With this thought, Heize Seimei bit his lip fiercely. He flipped his hand, and a Blood Talisman floated from his palm. Then he slashed his palm open, letting the Essence Blood evaporate and be absorbed entirely by the Blood Talisman.

After absorbing this Essence Blood, the Blood Talisman suddenly began to glow brightly, emanating a terrifying aura of Blood Fiend in mid-air.

At the same time, Heize Seimei’s eyes flashed brightly, and he sternly commanded the other members of Izumo Shrine, "Everyone, inject your vitality into the Blood Talisman at once to assist Lord Green-faced God!"
