CHAPTER 1530: CHAPTER 1489 CORPSE GHOST KING

"Wait... what’s that?"

Xiao Wu seemed to sense something and looked back, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

"Sister... look over there, what exactly is that thing?"

"What did you say?"

Huo Ling’er looked in the direction Xiao Wu pointed, her face suddenly changing.

This aura is unmistakable, it’s definitely the Corpse Ghost King!

But why would the Corpse Ghost King appear here?

There was no time for Huo Ling’er to think further; she immediately warned, "Lu Chuan, retreat quickly! The Corpse Ghost King is here!"

"Damn it, why did it have to be now?"

Lu Chuan’s brows knitted tightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

How could he not sense the aura of the Corpse Ghost King either? However, at this moment, the corpses beside him were attacking him like mad, determined to keep him here; he simply couldn’t escape!

"Lu Chuan, what are you waiting for!"

"This group of corpse ghosts seems to have received some kind of order; I can’t escape at all!"

Even though Lu Chuan’s surroundings had turned into a forbidden zone, with anything approaching being ground to bits by the millstone, this group of corpse ghosts continued to push forward, using their numbers to force the millstone to a stop!

It was only with great effort that the corpse ghost group gave Lu Chuan a moment to catch his breath, but unfortunately, the Corpse Ghost King was already close by, leaving Lu Chuan no possibility of escape.

Looking at the Corpse Ghost King, who was half a head taller than the other corpse ghosts and, except for the deathly pale skin, nearly indistinguishable from a normal human, Lu Chuan felt immense pressure.

"You... you’re not from the Fierce Sun Sparrow Clan, who are you?"

Listening to that hoarse voice, Lu Chuan felt a headache.

It could even communicate with him proactively; could this thing be on the verge of evolving into a human?

"Silence... we should be speaking the same language, does your silence mean I guessed right? So, do you have a way to leave here?

Take me and my clansmen away from here, and I’ll spare your life, otherwise, today you and they will all have to stay."

Feeling the extreme yin power emanating from the Corpse Ghost King, Lu Chuan felt a wave of chills.

He was of the extreme yang body, whether it was the True Dragon Destiny or the two Divine Fires, all were extremely yang and pure powers, which naturally made him loathe the Corpse Ghost King.

But the problem was, Lu Chuan’s strength was not as terrifying as the Corpse Ghost King’s, so he felt overwhelmed in its presence.

"Lu Chuan!"

Seeing the Corpse Ghost King advancing step by step, about to strike at Lu Chuan, Huo Ling’er hesitated repeatedly, finally stepping in, transforming into a Fierce Sun Sparrow, and launching an attack as a ball of raging fire!

Huo Ling’er collided heavily with the Corpse Ghost King, and after each retreated several steps, Huo Ling’er shielded Lu Chuan behind her and said in a deep voice, "Lu Chuan, take Xiao Wu and leave here, I’ll hold him off!"

"Do I look like I have a chance to leave?"

The surrounding corpse ghost group watched like hungry tigers, ready to pounce the moment Lu Chuan dared to escape and ensure he remained!

The only reason they hadn’t acted yet was most likely due to the Corpse Ghost King’s orders, suppressing their instincts.

"Little Firebird, we meet again."

The Corpse Ghost King curled its lips into a mocking smile, "Still not giving up? You alone are no match for me; why don’t you both attack together."

"Lu Chuan, I’ll create an opportunity for you to quickly escape, Xiao Wu is in your hands now."

Huo Ling’er knew well the terror of the Corpse Ghost King. Even if she mobilized the entire clan to fight the Corpse Ghost Clan, she couldn’t gain the slightest advantage.

If Huo Ling’er’s bloodline could also mutate and regain its ancestral powers, perhaps she could defeat the Corpse Ghost King with the Samadhi True Fire.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu had not yet grown strong, and even though he naturally suppressed the Corpse Ghost Clan, the vast disparity in power meant the Samadhi True Fire could not bridge the immense gap in realm.

"Stop dreaming; do you think he’ll obediently listen to me and leave with me? You should understand your brother’s nature better than I do; seeing you in grave danger, he couldn’t possibly leave."

As he spoke, Lu Chuan transferred the Divine Fire of the Sun into Huo Ling’er’s body, calmly saying, "I’ll lend you the Divine Fire for now. I’ll help you deal with the other corpse ghosts, and as for the Corpse Ghost King, I’ll leave it to you."

Feeling the divine fire seed within her body, Huo Ling’er nodded slightly, and with a thought, countless fire feathers shot towards the Corpse Ghost King like arrows!

Seeing this scene, the Corpse Ghost King sneered, a trace of disdain in its eyes.

It had seen Huo Ling’er’s tricks before; such small flames couldn’t even harm its body. The Corpse Ghost King reached out, attempting to catch the fire feathers in its hand.

However, this time, the moment its flesh touched the fire feathers, a wound was burned into it.

Feeling the stinging pain in its palm, the Corpse Ghost King’s expression changed.

"What... did you do?"

"You’ll find out soon enough!"

Huo Ling’er flashed forward, the Fire Feather Sword igniting fiercely, slashing down heavily on the Corpse Ghost King. The latter’s expression changed as it dodged, delivering a heavy punch to force Huo Ling’er back!

"It seems you’ve mastered a new flame, interesting... truly interesting! My people, devour these two fresh blood meals!"

At the Corpse Ghost King’s command, the restless corpse ghost group suddenly became agitated, their hideous roars unceasing, swallowing Lu Chuan like a tide in an instant!

"Must I use that move?"

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth, shaking the Golden Luster Stick in his hand to a length of three meters, crushing the corpse ghosts before him into pulp, then channeling spiritual power into the crystal bone fragment at his brow. The next moment, a formation emerged from under Lu Chuan’s feet!

"Purple Cloud Demon-clearing Formation!"

Countless magic artifacts flew out from the Little Tower, falling into the formation, driven by Lu Chuan’s spiritual power, engaging in battle with the corpse ghost group, while the Little Tower stabilized the array eye, along with Lu Chuan, providing the formation with an endless supply of spiritual power.

This was one of the two crystal bone fragments that grandfather had previously given to Lu Chuan, with the formation recorded within. After learning it, this was Lu Chuan’s first time using it.

There had either never been a suitable opportunity, or there was simply no need to use this move.

It must be known that while the Purple Cloud Demon-clearing Formation is incredibly strong, the consumption of spiritual power is immense, and after one use, Lu Chuan would practically be devoid of combat power.

But now, with Huo Ling’er handling the Corpse Ghost King, it was enough for him to stop the corpse ghost group from affecting Huo Ling’er; this was undoubtedly the best time to deploy the Purple Cloud Demon-clearing Formation!

"Break for me!"

Lu Chuan transformed his hands into palms and pushed forward. Thousands of magic artifacts within the formation were simultaneously activated, a flurry of blades, sword shadows, staff stances, and spear lights resonating within the formation!

This formation, capable of covering the entire Demon Cleansing Mountain, could be said that without the Tower Spirit’s assistance to Lu Chuan, he might not even be able to deploy it, which is why Grandpa entrusted this move to him; in a positional battle, the Purple Cloud Demon-clearing Formation is an unbeatable existence!
