The shrunken poisonous eel silverfish was completely frozen.
Soon, a red thing quickly crawled out from the fish's gills.
Only then did I see the thing clearly. It turned out to be a strange red insect.
The strange insect was bright red in color, and had sharp legs growing on its abdomen, like a centipede.
The insect's eyes were wide open, and the pupils were small and black. On the tail of the strange insect, there was a long tail needle.
There were flashes of electric light on the tail needle, just like a flint being rubbed.
As the strange insect's mouthparts opened and closed, ghostly air continued to come out of it.
After the worm crawled out of the gills of the poisonous eel and silverfish, it attached itself to the ice. After the strange worm attached itself to the ice, it was as if it had encountered high temperatures, and white gas continued to spread out.
Soon, the strange bug melted the ice on the outside of the poisonous eel and silver fish, leaving a fist-sized hole.
"Hehe, Taoist Priest, my 'Corpse-Transforming Bug' is pretty good, isn't it?"
The ghost face inside the Mingluo ghost flag said with some pride.
I was surprised when I heard Ghost Face mention the name of the red bug.
Corpse-transforming insects were also recorded in the Yin-Yang Soul-Transferring Notes. This kind of insect could not only absorb and exhale ghost energy, but also spit out corrosive substances from its mouthparts.
That kind of corrosive liquid is recorded in the notes, but it is more powerful than concentrated sulfuric acid.
I didn't say anything, but Guilian muttered a few words softly.
As the ghost face's voice fell, the corpse-transforming insect that appeared on the ice actually exuded a trace of ghost energy. The ghost energy completely enveloped the corpse-transforming insect, and then, driven by the corpse-transforming insect, the ghost energy flew towards the Nether Luo Ghost Flag.
The speed of the corpse-transforming worm was extremely fast. As it flew, it left a beam of red and black light in the air and instantly rushed towards the Nether Luo Ghost Flag.
My eyes subconsciously focused on the "spirit", so I could see every move of the corpse worm clearly.
The corpse-turning worm flew towards the Nether Luo Ghost Flag, and the ghost face immediately opened its mouth.
The next moment, the corpse-turning worm drilled into the mouth of the ghost face inside the Nether Luo Ghost Flag.
I glanced coldly at the ghost face in the Nether Luo Ghost Flag, thinking, this ghost face clearly has many tricks up his sleeve. Back when we were in the attic, if the ghost face had released the corpse-transforming worms, I might not have been his opponent.
I think it's better to be careful with this ghost face.
After swallowing the corpse worm's ghost face, he closed his eyes with an expression of enjoyment on his face.
I know that he has absorbed all the ghost energy swallowed by the corpse worm and used it for his own use.
I can sense that Ghost Face's strength has increased slightly.
But now is not the time to deal with this grimace.
I flipped my palm and shot out a soul-calming talisman.
Before the ghost face opened its eyes, the soul-calming talisman was pasted on the Mingluo ghost flag.
Instantly, the ghost power in the Mingluo Ghost Flag was suppressed once again.
The ghost face opened his ghost eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Master, I helped you kill the poisonous eel and silver fish, why are you still sticking the soul-calming talisman on the ghost flag of the underworld?"
I said unhappily, "None of your business is my business."
Before the ghost face could say anything, I put a forbidden note on it.
At the same time, I put the Mingluo Ghost Flag into the cloth bag.
Hurryingly, the energy of good deeds surged through my body, and my legs quickly moved through the water towards the other side.
After the evil ghost Zhang Junzi had dealt with the poisonous eels and silverfish, he flew over and followed closely behind me.
I felt a little anxious because I sensed that not far behind us, a large number of ghosts were rushing towards this side.
If I'm not mistaken, those ghosts are most likely going to the bamboo hut to capture
Our Ghost King and other ghosts.
Seeing my gloomy face, the evil ghost Zhang Junzi asked me: "Master Yang, what's wrong with you?"
I said in a deep voice: "There are a lot of ghosts chasing us. We must leave here quickly."
Upon hearing this, the evil ghost Zhang Junzi's face changed, appearing shocked and anxious.
In just a few minutes, I reached the other side of the Yin River.
Uncle Sun ran up and said to me, "Tianyi, that Miss Su has consumed a lot of ghost energy and she hasn't recovered yet. She looks very weak."
I nodded and glanced under a tree.
The human-skin ghost Su Congxue's soul was staying under the tree. She was using her ghost power to absorb the evil energy in the air.
I walked over and whispered to the human-skin ghost Su Congxue, "Miss Su, there are ghosts chasing us from behind, so we can't stay here for long. How about I put you in the soul-collecting barrel? Don't worry, I will take you away from the City of the Dead as soon as possible."
The human-skin ghost Su Congxue opened her ghost eyes, looked at me, thought for a moment, then nodded without saying much.
Immediately, I opened the soul-collecting barrel, chanted a spell, and sucked the human-skin ghost Su Congxue into the soul-collecting barrel.
After doing all this, I arranged for the evil ghost Zhang Junzi to lead the way, and I stepped on the Seven Star Steps and took Uncle Sun with me, moving quickly through the mountains and forests.
Although it will consume a lot of good energy, there are ghosts chasing after him and he can't wait that long.
Not long after we left Yinhe River, a dark ghostly aura came from behind.
The ghostly aura is like a black cloud, with a rich color, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
And inside the ghostly aura, there were bursts of ghostly howling sounds, which were eerie and terrifying.
In front of those ghostly auras, there were four black auras.
Those four black auras were exactly the four ghost kings of the City of the Dead.
Of course, that King Zhao is a new Ghost King. However, I know that King Zhao's strength is no worse than other Ghost Kings.
"Look! There are fluctuations of ghost energy and Yin De energy above the Yin River ahead."
Suddenly, one of the four ghost kings made a sound.
It was the Ghost King Li Ming who was speaking.
This Ghost King Li Ming is the same Ghost King who first appeared in Laoya Mountain and used ghost magic to check the information between Uncle Sun and me.
There were three ghost kings flying beside him, namely: Ghost King Zhao Wang, Ghost King Duan Tiancai, and Ghost King Yin Xue.
Needless to say, Prince Zhao and Duan Tiancai.
That ghost king Yin Xue is the only woman among the four ghost kings.
Just imagine, a female ghost can become a ghost of the Ghost King level in the City of the Dead. It can be seen that the Ghost King Yin Xue is definitely very powerful.
This ghost king Yin Xue has a nickname, the same as her name, "Blood Drinker".
Her favorite thing to do is to suck the blood of the ghost beasts in the City of the Dead. The blood of the living people is more attractive to the ghost king Yin Xue.
Soon, the four ghost kings flew towards the Yin River.
They have revealed their soul bodies.
The soul of Yin Xue that was revealed looked very vulgar - wrapped in a black skirt, with her plump breasts exposed.
Going to the bank of the Yin River and gazing at the frozen poisonous eel in the Yin River, Ghost King Li Ming said, "The poisonous eel was frozen in the ice, and the flesh and blood inside its body has melted away. It seems that the skills of those two people in the world of the living are really extraordinary."
The Ghost King Duan Tiancai and the Ghost King Li Ming on one side do not get along well.
Hearing the words of Ghost King Li Ming, Duan Tiancai could not help but sneer, "Really? It's just a poisonous eel and silverfish. It's no match for me. Those two people in the mortal world were able to deal with the poisonous eel and silverfish, but it was just a fluke. If they met me, Duan Tiancai, I would definitely kill them."
When Ghost King Li Ming heard Duan Tiancai say this, his face immediately darkened.
Li Ming
He snorted coldly and said unhappily: "Some people always like to go against me. However, they are better than me in boasting and self-righteousness. But their actual ability is very weak."
"And I heard that not long ago, some people brought hundreds of ghosts but failed to catch those two people from the mortal world, and many of their subordinates were killed. With this ability, it's just a joke to talk about it."
Although Ghost King Li Ming did not mention Ghost King Duan Tiancai by name, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ghost King Li Ming was talking about Duan Tiancai.
Duan Tiancai had a bad temper, and his eyebrows immediately raised when he heard this.
There was fire flowing in his ghost eyes. He glared at the ghost king Li Ming fiercely and said angrily, "Asshole, Li Ming, what did you say? Are you fucking mocking me?"
Ghost King Li Ming sneered, "Sarcastic you? Hehe, no. Who do you think you are, Duan Tiancai? I, Li Ming, have never considered you as an opponent. You, really are not worthy of my attention."
Duan Tiande was so angry at the words of Ghost King Li Ming that his ghost face almost turned into the color of a pig's belly.
"You, you, you dare to say it again?..."
Ghost King Li Ming also glared over and said solemnly, "What if you say it again?"
For a moment, a thick layer of ghost energy emerged from the souls of the two ghost kings, and their ghost claws became longer, as if they were about to fight.
The ghost king Zhao Wang, who was standing on the side, saw the two ghost kings about to fight each other, and he laughed secretly. When he glanced at the two ghost kings, it was as if he was watching a joke.
The other ghost king, Yin Xue, trembled his soul and appeared between the ghost kings Li Ming and Duan Tiancai.
"Haha, brothers, why are you so angry? We are following the orders of the Ghost Immortal Master to capture the people of the living world. If you fight each other now and let the Ghost Immortal Master know, I'm afraid he will not forgive you."
"Also, if we don't catch those two people from the mortal world as soon as possible, I'm afraid the ghost fairy will blame us. So, we should not waste time here."
Ghost King Li Ming and Ghost King Duan Tiancai didn't say a word. They looked at each other with anger in their eyes, but it was much more subtle.
Ghost King Li Ming snorted coldly and took the ghost guards behind him to check the poisonous eel and silver fish.
After a while, he returned and said to the other three ghost kings: "That poisonous eel and silver fish died not long ago. It seems that the two people from the mortal world have not been away from the Yin River for long. Let's catch up quickly... ... Then, let's see who among the four ghost kings can catch the two people from the mortal world first."
Ghost King Li Ming said unceremoniously: "Of course it's me. The two mortals escaped earlier by using the ghosts in the Seven-Colored Yin Snake's body. But this time, I will definitely catch them both."
The Ghost King Zhao Wang said: "I will also do my best to capture him."
On the contrary, the ghost king Yin Xue was very calm.
Ghost King Yin Xue licked the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "I haven't drunk the blood of the living in a long time. Those two guys are mine."
Without a few words, the four ghost kings turned into black gas and rushed to the other side of the Yin River.
“Huff—”
Groups of ghosts were flying around, covering the sky and the ground. There were so many of them that they were incalculable.
Gusts of cold wind blew in all directions, and the yin energy was extremely heavy.
Along the way, black air spread across many mountains and forests, scaring the wandering wild ghosts into retreating.
Besides, here we are.
After running in the mountains and forests for more than an hour, we were very close to Blood Cloud Mountain.
But just as we were about to enter Blood Cloud Mountain, we ran into trouble again.
On the outskirts of Blood Cloud Mountain, we encountered a vicious ghost.
Originally, the evil ghost was not difficult to deal with, but that evil ghost had the ability to control ghost beasts.
