Chapter 988: Ghost Ancestor (2/2)

Emperor Xuanyuan’s sword dao.

Up in the sky, the shadow of an enormous sword took shape and slashed down on the akasha ghost.

“Ghost ancestor!” came a girl’s cry. Dressed in flowing white robes, Xuanyuan Xiaoyue broke through the black akasha ghost’s blockade and entered Withdrew Major like a ghost herself. The shadow of the enormous sword transformed into a real sword while the pagoda, bell, and cauldron landed in her hands.

“The eldest princess of the human race!” shrieked the black akasha ghost—the ghost ancestor—when it saw Xuanyuan Xiaoyue. “…a realm monster?! How are you possibly a realm monster?!”

The ghost ancestor was the progenitor of all ghosts. Whether it be akasha ghosts or vicious and immortal ghosts within the world, all were a result of the ghost ancestor’s power in the immortal dao.

In the original chaos, living beings could turn into yin souls, yin spirits, or others upon their death, but the only thing they couldn’t turn into was a ghost. With the appearance of the ghost ancestor and its impact on the heavenly dao, it forcefully created the dao of ghosts within the world.

From then on, if something died with malice or resentment in their heart or if they absorbed yin energy, they would be impacted by the ghost dao and turn into various ghosts upon their death, possibly even akasha ghosts.

“Didn’t experts of the sacred race personally see to the extinction of the realm monsters?! How are you possibly a realm monster??” The ghost ancestor’s expression twisted from both laughing and crying into one of intense fear.

From its shock, the little fox and other experts of the Primeval Era realized something that shocked them as well. The chaos creatures had been the ones to destroy their ancient enemy, the realm monsters!

……

Wielding the Xuanyuan Sword, Xuanyuan Xiaoyue stood side by side with the little fox.

Both beauties that would topple nations, their stunning grace, astounding talent, and mesmerizing bearing imprinted themselves into the minds of all beings in the world of immortals. The immortals had raised up Mo Yi and Qing Yu as the goddesses of their heart before, but now there were two more.

Dean Tushan of the monster spirit dao in the Dao Academy, and Xuanyuan Xiaoyue, daughter of Emperor Xuanyuan and the eldest princess of the human race!

The two holy girls faced down the terrifying ghost ancestor in tandem, who was slowly recovering from its horrified shock.

It’d once tried using its ghost dao to influence dead worlds, but those worlds had turned into realm monsters instead and almost killed the ghost ancestor. It was only with the help of the chaos creatures that it slowly recovered from the turnaround.

After that, it became the vanguard of the chaos creatures in destroying worlds of the realms. An untold number of worlds fell to the ghost ancestor and akasha ghosts under its command. However, the realm monsters that dead worlds turned into were still the bane of its existence.

Realm monsters briefly became the minions of the chaos creatures, but mysteriously betrayed their masters before the battle of Emperors Fall. Unable to resolve the situation, the chaos creatures had to destroy all of the realm monsters in the end.

The ghost ancestor grew ever stronger after the realm monsters were eradicated, and it created stronger akasha ghosts than before. They were now their own race—the akasha ghost race.
