The ghosts are elusive and seem to have no substance, so it is difficult for the other five tribes to deal with them.
Zhang Jinwei looked at this group of ghosts warily, his eyes sliding across their pale and cold faces. They were filled with a chilling yin energy, and wherever they passed, a thin layer of frost condensed on the ground. That was the yin frost formed by the yin energy leaked from the ghosts.
He subconsciously tightened the Blazing Sun Sword in his hand.
The Blazing Sun Sword is a spiritual sword specially made by human weapon refiners for the ghost clan. It incorporates a kind of Blazing Sun Stone that can restrain the yin energy of the ghost clan and cause great damage to the ghost bodies of the ghost clan.
This was also the sword that Zhang Jinwei specially changed to when he knew that the ghost tribe was coming.
The ghost clan's erratic voice sounded: "Who are you and why are you here in the ghost clan's underworld?"
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "We are here on the orders of the Human King. I believe you should know why."
The ghosts present looked at each other, and the leading ghost said, "Your human spiritual cultivators arrived at Ghost King City a month ago. Do you have the order from the Human King?"
If not, they can treat them as outsiders who have intruded into the ghost clan's dark land.
No tribe would be friendly to such intruders, and even if they were killed, the outsiders would have nothing to say.
Zhang Jinwei took out the Human King's Order and pushed it towards the group of ghosts.
The Human King's Order is filled with pure spiritual energy, and it also contains the spiritual power of the Void Realm injected by the Human King. It is extremely majestic and cannot be faked.
Upon seeing this, the ghosts understood that they were indeed sent by the Human King, so they could not stop them anymore and had to retreat and let them continue on their way.
After walking for a distance, Zhang Jinwei secretly wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Luckily, we had His Majesty's token." He said thankfully, "Otherwise, we might have fought just now."
Gu Jiu looked at him with a smile, "What are you afraid of?"
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I'm in trouble." Zhang Jinwei curled his lips, "You don't know how scary it is that these ghosts come and go without a trace, and they pop up at random. Sometimes you don't even know that they have sucked your energy while you're sleeping. They are more annoying than the blood race."
The vampires at least have traces to be found, but the ghosts can drill through the ground and walls, making them hard to guard against.
Gu Jiu thought to himself that it seemed that the ghosts in this world were similar to the ghosts in the real world, but they had a more systematic method of cultivation, which made the ghost clan not inferior to the other five clans.
"Didn't you bring a lot of spiritual weapons specifically for defeating ghosts?" Gu Jiu asked with a smile.
Zhang Jinwei touched the storage bag and sighed, "Yes, I brought it, but it's okay for ordinary ghosts. If you encounter a ghost general, no matter how many spiritual weapons you have, it will be useless."
The ghosts at the ghost general level are powerful beings below the ghost king, and spiritual weapons can cause limited damage to them.
"However, the ten ghost generals of the ghost clan shouldn't just run out of Ghost King City, right?" Zhang Jinwei consoled himself, "We probably won't run into them."
The Ghost King has ten ghost generals under his command, who are also the most powerful fighting force of the ghost clan. They fight for the Ghost King in all directions and serve as an external deterrent.
Generally speaking, ghost generals will not appear easily. Once they appear, they will come with lightning speed and turbulence, and the destructive power they bring can be imagined.
As Zhang Jinwei was worried, they entered the ghost tribe on the third day and were surrounded by them again.
This time, the ghosts didn't give them a chance to speak and just came and killed them.
The eerie ghost claws, the shrill ghost howls, the chilling force that captivates the soul... The ghosts come up with a killer move that ordinary spiritual practitioners cannot resist at all.
Zhang Jinwei's face turned pale, and he held the Chiyang Sword in front of his chest, feeling that his soul was a little unstable.
The wind was blowing wildly, the air was filled with negative energy, and dark clouds were rolling in the sky, blocking out the sun. It was broad daylight, but the whole world was gloomy, as if it was the end of the world.
Gu Jiu waved his sleeves and threw Zhang Jinwei, who was struggling to resist, behind him, and summoned the Wu Ji Sword.
She leaped into the air and swung her sword at the group of ghosts.
The cold silver sword light broke through the heaven and earth, and a blood-like sword light appeared. When the sword light swept past, most of the ghosts disappeared, and most of the remaining ones fell to the ground, rolling on the ground, groaning, and their solid ghost bodies became unstable, and even revealed a hint of weakness. Some of the more serious ones had their bodies become translucent, as if they were about to disappear between heaven and earth.
Zhang Jinwei was stunned.
There were at least a thousand ghosts surrounding them, if not eight hundred. With just one sword, they were killed to pieces. How strong is Gu Jiu
She seemed to be stronger than she thought.
Gu Jiu landed lightly on the ground and sheathed the Wu Ji sword casually.
The ghosts on the ground were already weak, so she walked over leisurely, found a ghost with a relatively solid body, and said with a smile: "Is this how you treat guests who come from afar?"
Then the ghost tribe looked at her with fear in their eyes, and tremblingly asked: "Who are you, and why did you come to the ghost tribe's underworld?"
"We are here on the orders of the Human King."
Zhang Jinwei very tactfully stepped forward, took out the Human King Order, and put it in front of him.
The ghost on the ground looked at him with a twinkling gaze, and quickly said, "This is a misunderstanding..."
"Since it's a misunderstanding, we'll leave." Gu Jiu said softly, "You ghosts welcome guests in a very warm way. I like it. You can come more next time."
Ghost tribe: “…” Do you want more of them to kill you
The two of them left in a swagger, and Zhang Jinwei said, "Miss Gu, do you think these ghosts are asking for trouble? They have to die before they are willing to talk to us properly?"
These ghosts attacked right away just now, which shows that they want to strike first.
As long as they fail to reveal their identities in time, the ghost clan can pretend that they don't know they were sent by the Human King. If they die, they can't blame the ghost clan. After all, the ghost clan thinks they are outsiders who have trespassed into the underworld without permission.
But the ghost clan underestimated Gu Jiu's strength and were almost wiped out.
And this was when Gu Jiu showed mercy. She only used one sword. If she had used more force, she could have annihilated all these ghosts.
Gu Jiu glanced at him and said, "They have to test it out before they can feel at ease."
Knowing that the ghosts were testing her, she did not kill them all. She left some alive for the ghosts to experience it themselves, to prevent them from thinking that they were easy to bully and sending ghost soldiers over again.
Sure enough, after that, they did not encounter any ghosts blocking their way again.
However, we encountered quite a few residual souls and ghosts unique to the underworld. These residual souls and ghosts were born from yin energy, had no self-awareness, wandered in the underworld, and attacked all living beings.
Gu Jiu didn't even look at it and drew his sword directly.
Seeing those ghosts and residual souls turned to ashes in the sword light, even though Zhang Jinwei did not like ghosts, he could not help but gasp.
Are the strong ones in the Void Realm so powerful
The ancestor of the Zhang family was a powerful person in the Void Realm, but when they reached this realm, they seldom took action, and mostly practiced in seclusion in the Human King City. Therefore, they knew that the Void Realm was the top powerhouse of the human race, but they had no idea what it was.
Gu Jiu's nonchalant move not only opened Zhang Jinwei's eyes, but also frightened the ghosts in the underworld.
But within a few days, all the ghosts knew that the human race had actually sent a powerful Void Realm expert over.
The two walked in the ghost clan's dark land for more than half a month and finally arrived at the Ghost King City.
Ghost King City is shrouded in darkness all year round. Even during the day, the sky is oppressively dark, as if it is an eternal night.
On the towering city walls, one can see fluttering ghost flags and the ghosts entrenched on them. The ghosts' cold eyes look down at one, and it seems as if the city is filled with the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the air is filled with a sinister atmosphere.
Gusts of cold wind blew by, chilling the human race to the bone.
Whether going to the Blood City or coming to the Ghost Clan's Underworld, it is not an easy task.
Zhang Jinwei held the Chiyang Sword tightly in his arms and followed Gu Jiu closely.
He looked at Gu Jiu in front of him with admiration in his eyes.
The ghostly aura of the Ghost King City was eerie, and the wind carried the might of the Ghost King. Ordinary spiritual practitioners could hardly move a foot here. But she seemed to be walking in a spiritual land, with a calm expression, and even her sleeves did not move at all, hanging down obediently, swaying with her steps.
The group of ghosts who were observing secretly also apparently noticed this. No matter how the cold wind blew, she always stood there, as if she was detached from the world, and as if she was one of the dust in the world.
Not like ordinary people.
The gate of Ghost King City opened with a bang, and a group of ghosts in armor stood in two rows, looking at them coldly.
Gu Jiu stood in front of the gate of Ghost King City, looking at the open gate, and said with a smile: "Is this how you ghosts welcome guests?"
Ghost tribe: “…”
Zhang Jinwei looked at the opened City King City. It was pitch black inside, like the huge mouth of a monster, ready to devour anyone it could.
He swallowed secretly, and for a moment he didn't know whether to admire Gu Jiu's confidence or worry that she was too arrogant and would attract the wrath of the Ghost King.
Fortunately, the Ghost King was not angry, because he sent four ghost generals to greet them.
The ghost general was tall and his aura was even more sinister. The powerful ghost energy rushed towards him, and Zhang Jinwei almost fell to the ground.
Gu Jiu stepped forward slightly, and the surrounding atmosphere seemed to be purified by the soft spiritual energy, easily dissolving the ghost generals' intimidation. Zhang Jinwei felt that the air became softer, as if he was in a spiritual place with blooming flowers in spring.
He looked at Gu Jiu with gratitude. She actually challenged the Ghost General for him.
The four ghost generals' eyes flickered slightly, and without saying anything, they stood on both sides and made a gesture of invitation to her.
Gu Jiu walked into the City King City amid the silent welcome of the ghost clan.
After passing through the dark passage, a light suddenly appeared in front of us, and the view in front of us suddenly became clear, and a bustling street full of life came into view.
The ghosts dressed in funeral shrouds coming and going, the dazzling shops, the red lanterns floating in the air, and the bustling and lively scenes of the mortal world, all look like a human city.
Zhang Jinwei blinked and his tense body relaxed slightly.
It turns out that this is the Ghost King City. It seems to be no different from human cities. It turns out that ghosts also need to live.
As they were thinking this, they were brought to a mansion where two cold stone elephants of ghosts stood. When they saw the tall ghost sitting on the high ground, they almost lost their legs again.
Gu Jiu blinked, performed a human salute, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Ghost King, nice to meet you, I am Gu Jiu."
The Ghost King looked at her in silence, hummed faintly, and then spoke with the power of the Ghost King, "Why are you here?"
"I want to find someone in Ghost King City."
"Looking for someone?"
"Well, it could be a ghost."
The Ghost King looked at her silently, as if he was considering the meaning of her words.
Having reached Gu Jiu's level, she no longer needs to find any excuses in front of the Ghost King, which is why the Ghost King would come to see her in person.
Obviously, the Ghost King did not think that she was sent by the Human King. He would rather believe that she had other purposes.
Only Zhang Jinwei looked confused.
Aren't they here to hold the ghost tribe accountable and help promote negotiations between the two tribes? Why did she say she was here to look for someone... or maybe a ghost
After a while, the Ghost King asked, "How long will you stay here?"
"Let's see how long it takes." Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Don't worry, Your Majesty the Ghost King. I am a reasonable person and will not act rashly."
The implication of this statement is that if the ghosts take action themselves, then she cannot be blamed.
The Ghost King looked at her with his cold eyes and nodded slightly, "In that case, Miss Gu should stay."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Ghost King." Gu Jiu bowed to him again.
The Ghost King got up and left, asking the ghost messenger to arrange a place for them to live together with the group of human spiritual cultivators. They lived in a courtyard in the west of Ghost King City, two blocks away from a busy street.
When the human spiritual practitioners saw the ghost messenger respectfully escorting the two people over, they were dumbfounded.
When they heard Zhang Jinwei explain the reason why the two of them came here, they were very moved and felt that this was the concern of His Majesty the Human King for them. At the same time, they were also very curious about who Gu Jiu, the powerful Void Realm master who suddenly appeared, was.
No matter what, with the presence of Gu Jiu, a strong human, these spiritual cultivators have indeed gained a lot of confidence and feel that they will definitely be able to get the due compensation from the ghost clan this time.
