Chapter 1885 - 1: Xuanyin Ghost Clan

"What terrifying ghostly energy! Could that eerie man be a powerful Evil Ghost?"

Lin Feng looked at the man emerging from the ghostly aura and couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Some Evil Ghosts have cultivated such mysterious Taoist practices that once they emerge, they seem just as bizarre as the man not far away.

"No, he is a cultivator of the Xuanyin Ghost Clan! I didn’t expect Jiuzhou to still have the Xuanyin Ghost Clan!"

The Black Bear Demon Monarch’s expression turned solemn.

Lin Feng couldn’t help but be moved and asked, "Xuanyin Ghost Clan? What kind of race is that?"

The Black Bear Demon Monarch said, "Rumor has it that the Xuanyin Ghost Clan can communicate with the Ethereal Ghost Realm. They worship the Ghost Immortals of the Ghost Realm and seem to possess the method to open the gate to the Ghost Realm. Once that gate opens, countless beings from the Ghost Realm will appear, leading to chaos and destruction!"

Lin Feng said, "When I was in the Thunder Sea, I entered a passage to the Ghost Realm. Could the beings from the Ghost Realm cause chaos in the Yang Realm through that passage?"

The Black Bear Demon Monarch replied, "Of course not! Each world has its own Order. The passage you saw is for the Yang Realm to enter the Ghost Realm, not the other way around!"

Lin Feng understood the Black Bear Demon Monarch’s point.

The entrance and exit between the Ghost Realm are different.

...

The Black Bear Demon Monarch continued, "Beings from the Ghost Realm can only come out through the gate of the Ghost Realm. Doing so allows them to be bolstered by the Ghost Realm’s Order Law, so when they appear in the Yang Realm, they won’t be harmed by the Yang Realm’s Order Law and can linger to wreak havoc!"

Lin Feng suddenly thought of a saying.

The saying is "The paths of humans and ghosts diverge."

Meaning that humans and ghosts walk different paths and must live in different worlds.

The Yang Realm has its own Order.

The Netherworld has its own rules.

When the living go to the Netherworld,

they must die.

Similarly, if beings from the Netherworld enter the Yang Realm, they too would die.

The Ghost Realm belongs to the Netherworld, and beings from the Ghost Realm venturing into the Yang Realm would be annihilated by the Yang Realm’s Order Law.

The Black Bear Demon Monarch’s words verified these rumors.

But if those beings from the Ghost Realm are fortified with the Ghost Realm’s Order Law,

then they could withstand the attacks of the Yang Realm’s Order Law.

This way,

they could live in the Yang Realm.

...

The Black Bear Demon Monarch went on to say, "The Xuanyin Ghost Clan has opened the gate of the Ghost Realm more than once. The beings from the Ghost Realm came through and caused unimaginable slaughter, worse than the invasion by the Heavenly Demons. Back then, it was a land scorched for millions of miles with Ghosts rampant, as if the world was turning into Purgatory!"

"What benefit do the Xuanyin Ghost Clan get from doing this?" Lin Feng frowned.

The Black Bear Demon Monarch said, "The Ghost Immortal they worship commands them. It is said that the more wrongful deaths there are, the heavier the resentment in the world, and thus the stronger the Ghost Immortal becomes. The Ghost Immortal is bound by Heaven and Earth Rules and can’t leave the Ghost Realm, but upon reaching a certain level of power, it can break free!"

"Therefore, the Ghost Immortal wants to continuously strengthen its cultivation, making the Xuanyin Ghost Clan open the gate of the Ghost Realm, releasing Ghost Realm beings to wreak havoc. Naturally, the Xuanyin Ghost Clan benefits too, as the Ghost Immortal will descend its mighty power upon them, greatly enhancing their cultivation."

At this moment, a cold shout came from within the island: "We must kill him; he must not escape!"

A group of cultivators soared into the sky.

They surged toward the cultivator of the Xuanyin Ghost Clan.

In total, there were over twenty cultivators.

The cultivators wore coarse cloth, and if not for the Magic Swords they wielded now, one might mistake them for ordinary island residents.

Over twenty people, led by an elder, began to besiege the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator.

"Ke ke ke ke!"

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator let out a sinister laugh, "You Sealing Demon Clan are completely falling into decline, destined to be cast aside by history. Today, I, the Crown Prince, will devour you, then destroy your village!"

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator surged toward the group of island cultivators.

"Sealing Demon Sword Formation!"

...

The elder called out in a deep voice.

Over twenty people joined forces to deploy a powerful sword formation.

In the void, Sword Qi crisscrossed.

Every strand of Sword Qi was surrounded by dense runes.

Countless strands of Sword Qi slashed toward the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator.

Yet the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator was extraordinarily formidable, shattering the Sword Qi and arriving before an island cultivator, piercing his sharp claws directly through the island cultivator’s chest.

"Uganda!"

...

Many were shocked and angry, quickly charging toward the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator.

The island cultivator, referred to as Uganda, looked down at his chest, emitting a tragic laughter.

Then.

His Blood and Essence were devoured instantly by the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator.

His body turned into a desiccated corpse.

After devouring the Blood and Essence of this cultivator, the strength of the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator visibly recovered, and he swiftly evaded the attacks of the remaining island cultivators.

Puff!

In the next moment, he appeared beside a second island cultivator, his sharp claws piercing the body.

In the blink of an eye,

the Blood and Essence of the second island cultivator,

was also completely devoured.

...

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator was terrifying, moving among the group of island cultivators. Many were slain, and their Blood and Essence were completely devoured.

In the blink of an eye, over twenty island cultivators were reduced to merely ten survivors.

"Splendid! Truly splendid! The sensation of growing stronger is so exhilarating!"

...

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator let out a series of sharp and eerie sinister laughs.

The endless ghostly energy blotted out the sky and sun.

Enveloping the remaining few cultivators within it.

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator intended to capture the remaining island cultivators in one fell swoop.

Suddenly.

A dazzling strand of Sword Qi tore through the ghostly energy, slashing toward the Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator.

"Hmm?".

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator’s expression abruptly sharpened.

Turning around, he punched to destroy the incoming Sword Qi.

Clang! After shattering the Sword Qi, his cold eyes looked into the distance, immediately seeing a young cultivator stepping forward from afar.

"Ke ke ke ke, what a powerful Bloodline! I, the Crown Prince, can hardly wait to devour you!"

The Xuanyin Ghost Clan’s cultivator laughed sinisterly.

Ghostly energy churned.

The ghostly energy that blotted out the sky and sun, also enveloped Lin Feng as he stepped from afar.
