Chapter 1056: Confront (1/2)
The Ghost that was scouting for the Night Ghost zoomed past everything and entered the target's body.
This is one of the ghost's tricks, forceful possession. If the other party is a bit weakwilled or distracted, then it would work perfectly. At this moment, the target is distracted more than ever.
The Ghost possessed the body and controlled it. It used the two short swords in the targets body to make him stab himself in the chest piercing his lungs completely.
Night Ghost undid the possession and landed a punch on the target's chest making the ribs broken and before the target could even come to himself and realize what exactly is happening, he is already dead.
Night Ghost used a ritual to extract the soul and feed it to his ghosts.
After digesting the soul, he could feel an abundant increase in cultivation. It is not every day that he would get middle stage transcendent souls. If this continued, he would breakthrough to the late stage soon enough.
”Night Ghost keep on travelling in that direction in a moderate pace. Dont attract too much attention.
Vidyut, move to a thousand meters south. Be stealthy, three groups of people spread all over. They are all open targets. Saber Monarch and the rest are coming there. Start cleaning them up. I will once again ask you when Night Ghost meets his next opponent.”
With those orders, Vidyut started moving and on his way, he finished off the solo cultivators that are scouting and searching as they moved towards the cave location.
From the messages Sam got, he learned that the family head managed to figure out that Sam's location might be in that cave as that is the only plausible location for hiding.
So, he ordered the troops to move in that direction while spreading out a bit. Since the other party didn't have numbers, he wanted to use his numbers to his advantage and sacrifice some of them. Even with that expense, he would still make a bunch of them reach the location.
But too bad, that he doesn't know Sam has something like the crystal table.
That is the reason, why the forces of the Merene family didn't encounter a single team member even though they are so active.
Unless Sam ordered them to do so, none of them were caught by the merene family members.
The whole situation turned into a massacre.
For every twenty minutes, Sam made the team mates take a rest and recover with some potions and pills.
They would recover their energy and will attack once again as they moved forward.
He managed to cull every single of group of the Merene family only leaving a few strays here and there. In the process, he managed to capture thrity one musicians and sixteen formation masters.
Gandharvas are talented in these arts and they are very creative, they would make great chess teams.
Except for the few injured strays, there are only a few people that are left in the Merene family. Out of which two of them are Sam's current focus.
One of them is the Head of the Merene family and the other one is the prodigious young master of Merene family. The talented musician who is also of same cultivation level as Sam.
Sam converted the dead silver pigeons into undead and sent them through the space gate formation.
They flew out and went to the Family head and fell at his feet.
When the family head saw the bunch of dead pigeon bodies, he became anxious, he knew that things are going to be trouble some and the situation inside the forest is not as he presumed.
He immediately made his move and ran into the forest.
Meanwhile, Sam controlled his teammates and let the prodigious young master reach the cave. He is the only one who made it.
The rest of the team engaged in dealing with the strays.
When the young master looked at Sam, Sam stood up from his chair and came out of the cave with a smile.
”Nice to meet you young master. I was looking forward to meeting you.”
”Why? You want to die that badly?”
”Not really, I just wanted to witness your musical genius.”
”That is same as dying for you.”
”Don't be so sure of it. After all, you don't know me.”
”I know that if I kill you, the curse will be broken. You might even be considered a benefactor of the family, at least your dead body could be.”
”Foolish fanatics.”
Sam muttered and took out his flute. It has been a while since he used it. This is also one of his earliest creations, this might get a spirit too, but it seems like it would take some more time.
