C57 (2/2)

”No, no, no” Xu Cheng shook his finger, ”This thing is much stronger than the Hades' Soul-Reaching Lock. I call it the Soul Absorbing Lock. You should know that your father's soul was taken by this treasure.”

”Alright, I'll be lazy to waste my time talking to you. I'll let you experience its power immediately!” As he spoke, he shook the Soul Absorbing Lock in his hand, and the white fog slowly spread out with a metallic sound. These ghosts were no longer frightened to death by the sound of death. As they heard this sound, their spirits were lifted.

The temperature in the surroundings plummeted, and the white fog that emanated from the Soul Sucking Lock instantly covered the entire hillside. The back of the mountain, which was already rather cold, now made people shiver even more.

”Hahaha …” Roar … Roar … Roar … Awoo, awoo, awoo. All sorts of ghostly wails were heard. It was as if they were mocking Bai Mu's current condition.

”An insignificant skill!” He secretly lit up the talisman that his master had given him. His eyes suddenly became as clear and bright as the stars, as if they had been washed by the purest water in the world.

The object within the white mist was clearly seen by Bai Mu. It seemed that although his master was a bit lacking in kindness, this talisman seemed to be quite useful. Bai Mu thought to himself that he must ask his master for two more talismans next time.

Seeing Xu Cheng's self-righteous sneer, he also laughed and asked a certain direction in the air, ”Xu Cheng, is this the ability of your Soul Absorbing Lock?”

”What are you so proud of? Let's see what I'll do next! ”

It was obvious that Xu Cheng didn't know that Bai Mu had used the talisman to open his Heaven's Eye. He thought that Bai Mu was only testing him because he couldn't find his bearings in the fog. Although his opened Heaven's Eyes wouldn't last for long, it was enough to deal with the item in front of him.

The souls that had previously been scattered like scattered sand were now fusing together, as if they were going to form a giant. So the reason why the fog rose was to stall for time! ” Naturally, Bai Mu wouldn't let them succeed. He secretly gathered his Spiritual Energy and waited for the moment the ghosts converged.

Only at that time would the ghosts have the weakest soul power. If they could fuse well, it would be difficult for him to deal with them. The reason why Xu Cheng's fog rose was to deceive Bai Mu.

”Boom …” The ghosts didn't even have the time to cry out in alarm before their souls were destroyed by the Spiritual Energy that Bai Mu had sent over. Even their physical bodies had dissipated.

Since ghosts were connected to the main body, it couldn't help but affect the person that supported the soul fusion, not to mention that Xu Cheng wasn't a person, he was only a soul. Xu Cheng heard a pfft sound. The stream of blood that he had been holding back suddenly spurted out, and some of it even splashed onto the Soul-Sucking Lock.

Before Xu Cheng could cry out in alarm, Bai Mu had already flashed in front of him. He pulled the white figure that floated out of the Soul-Sucking Lock to his side, and then flew away from where Xu Cheng was.

He secretly took back the soul that he pulled over and laughed: ”I didn't expect you to vomit blood even after turning into a ghost, and even more so, I didn't think that I would have to rely on your blood to unlock this Soul Linking Lock!”

Bai Mu didn't mention a single word about how he had just destroyed Xu Cheng's ghost. He knew that Xu Cheng was definitely furious, so he said these words to agitate the person in front of him. Oh, no, it should be a ghost!

”You …” The Phantom Soldier that he painstakingly nurtured over the past few days was instantly destroyed by Bai Mu, and he was also injured because of this. Not only that, the matter of him using his blood to nourish the Soul Sucking Lock was also known to him, and he even saved Wang Rong's soul.

”Enough!” ”As a ghost, you actually dared to do such a thing. Tonight, I shall carry out justice for the heavens!” As he spoke, he prepared to smash the spiritual energy stored in his hand towards Xu Cheng.

With a bang, the Spiritual Energy collided. In a split-second, Bai Mu was forced back a big step. By the time the fog dissipated, it was unknown where Xu Cheng had escaped to.

”That person is not easy to deal with!” Recalling the strike just now, Bai Mu's hands were still trembling. He was indeed a ruthless person. Furthermore, his speed was astonishingly fast. He really couldn't feel anything when he attacked.

Without a second thought, he turned around and left the area with Wang Rong's soul.

Xu Cheng, who had returned to the underground palace, still had a lingering fear in his heart. He never thought that Bai Mu would have increased his strength so much. Not only did he break his Ghost Controlling Technique, he even almost lost his life.

”Xu Cheng, how dare you!” Master told you to go collect the soul, but you went and provoked that brat. If I hadn't arrived in time with the puppet leader, your soul would have been shattered long ago. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because Master is in seclusion. ” Guan Li crossed his arms and said with a dark expression.

”Emissary Guan Li, many thanks this time. I hope you can forgive me, or else master's trial …”

”Now you know that Master's trial is not going well?” Guan Li harrumphed.

”What are you being so cocky for? He's just an ordinary person. If you have the ability, don't get in my hands.” Xu Cheng muttered in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face like a grandson, ”You're right, Envoy Guan Li. I was just lucky that I didn't reveal my identity. That brat still doesn't know that I'm from the underground palace.”

Seeing that Guan Li did not say anything, Xu Cheng continued, ”This little one guarantees that I will not seek out that person for revenge from today onwards. This little one will properly search for my soul elsewhere and promise that I will not cause any bad blood in the underground palace.”

Hearing Xu Cheng's words, Guan Li looked at Xu Cheng and said with a sullen expression, ”You can't do that again. Otherwise, no one will be able to help you out there!”

”Yes, yes, yes!” Xu Cheng nodded repeatedly and finally coaxed Guan Li into being happy before leaving dejectedly.
