Chapter 707: Evil Ghost Devours Heart
Chapter 707: Evil Ghost Devours Heart
Yang Haoran set up a restriction barrier, but the Old Town Chief didn't panic, and even had the mind to scold the spirit master behind him.
From his reaction, it seemed like he didn't take Yang Haoran's restriction barrier seriously, or rather, he didn't take Yang Haoran seriously at all.
However, his smile soon froze, and his gaze towards Yang Haoran was filled with shock and disbelief.
Under his gaze, Yang Haoran's body suddenly emitted a burst of black smoke, enveloping his entire body in a thick, visible black fog, which was a manifestation of his Yin Qi reaching a certain level.
At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the bright moon was high in the sky. Although the moon couldn't illuminate the entire deep mountain forest, the location was in a mountain valley, and the recent battle had destroyed the surrounding trees, leaving no obstacles to block the moonlight, which still provided a certain range of visibility.
Moreover, the three people present were not ordinary individuals, and their vision surpassed that of ordinary people. Therefore, the Old Town Chief and the spirit master could clearly see Yang Haoran's transformation.
Apart from the visible changes, the two could also sense the powerful energy fluctuations emanating from Yang Haoran's body, which were significantly stronger than before.
Both of them knew that Yang Haoran had opened his heaven soul.
However, they didn't know that Yang Haoran had only opened his heaven soul and hadn't yet unleashed his full power.
The two were still in shock when a warning voice suddenly sounded, snapping them back to reality."Be careful!"
The moment the warning voice sounded, the ground in front of them began to violently tremble, and a large amount of mud, rocks, and broken trees suddenly flew up and rapidly condensed into a unique wall in front of the two.
This unique wall was naturally meant to protect the Old Town Chief and the spirit master, and the one who had set it up was the Old Town Chief's Guardian Spirit.
This Guardian Spirit was indeed skilled, reacting quickly and sensing danger. While the Old Town Chief and the spirit master were still in shock over Yang Haoran's powerful energy fluctuations, the Guardian Spirit had already realized the danger and immediately used his object control ability to its fullest extent, forming a unique wall in front of the two to protect them.
However, his sensing ability was sensitive, and his reaction was timely, but the defensive power of the wall he had condensed in an instant was limited. A dull sound was heard, and a black light broke through the wall, shooting towards the Old Town Chief from behind.
The Guardian Spirit's object control ability, which had condensed the wall in an instant, couldn't block the black light. It only managed to hold out for a moment before being pierced by the black light.
The Old Town Chief didn't have time to see what the sudden black light was, but he sensed a powerful Yin spirit energy emanating from it. If he were hit by the black light, the consequences would be unimaginable, and he would definitely be injured. So, he didn't hesitate and quickly dodged to the side with his fastest speed.
Despite his old age, the Old Town Chief's movements were surprisingly agile, and his speed was quite fast. His body flashed and disappeared from its original position.
Just as his body disappeared, the black light shot past the position where he had been, and if it weren't for his Guardian Spirit's timely intervention, his body would have been hit by the black light. As for whether he would have survived the hit, it was hard to say.
The Old Town Chief narrowly avoided the black light, breaking out in a cold sweat, but the spirit master behind him was not so lucky and was directly hit by the black light.
The spirit master had already been severely injured by Yang Haoran and was in a terrible state. In this condition, he didn't have the ability to dodge the fast-as-lightning black light.
It wasn't just that his body had suffered heavy damage; even if he were in his prime, without any injuries, he would still be unable to dodge such a sudden and rapid black light.
Fresh blood spurted out, and the Spirit Master's body was cut in half at the waist, his face filled with shock. His severed corpse fell to the ground, and until his death, he didn't understand what that black light was.
As the Spirit Master's corpse fell to the ground, the rocks, soil, and broken trees in the air also fell to the ground, making different sounds as they hit the ground.
The black light that killed the Spirit Master was, of course, Yang Haoran's soul weapon, Waning Moon. In fact, the Spirit Master didn't die unjustly, because he was also a target Yang Haoran wanted to kill with this strike.
Yang Haoran opened his Heaven Soul and controlled Waning Moon to launch a sudden attack. He already had a plan in mind.
If he could kill Old Town Chief with one strike, or severely injure him, that would be the best result.
If Old Town Chief managed to dodge, then the Spirit Master behind him would definitely not survive, and it would be good to take care of him first, so he wouldn't be able to launch a sneak attack from behind.
Not getting the best result was okay, as long as he could achieve the second-best outcome, which was to eliminate one more enemy.
After killing the Spirit Master, Waning Moon stopped abruptly in mid-air, then transformed into a black light again and shot towards Old Town Chief.
This time, both Old Town Chief and his Guardian Spirit were prepared, so they didn't react passively like before.
Old Town Chief's body flashed and disappeared from his original position, dodging Waning Moon's attack while quickly forming a seal with his emaciated hands.
Old Town Chief's Guardian Spirit didn't idle either, transforming his soul body into a ball of Yin Qi that charged towards Yang Haoran.
"Yang Divine Envoy, your sneak attack is quite impressive. I almost fell for it."
Old Town Chief dodged, formed a seal, and spoke sarcastically, trying to disturb Yang Haoran's mind.
As he spoke, a loud explosion sounded from Yang Haoran's location.
The Guardian Spirit was trying to possess Yang Haoran's body through its attack, and if it succeeded, even for just an instant, it would be enough to decide the outcome of this battle.
Yang Haoran, of course, understood what the Guardian Spirit was thinking, and with his experience of dealing with ghosts over the years, he couldn't help but see through the Guardian Spirit's plan. So, just as the Guardian Spirit was about to approach him, several Yin spirit powers condensed into a chain that suddenly appeared and entwined the incoming Guardian Spirit.
The chain's appearance was very sudden, and the Guardian Spirit couldn't make an effective dodge. Its soul body was instantly bound by the chain, but the power of the ordinary chain condensed from Yin spirit powers was limited, and Old Town Chief's Guardian Spirit was quite strong. The chain was shattered by the Guardian Spirit's power the moment it bound it!
The loud explosion that sounded was the result of the Guardian Spirit shattering the chain.
"Compared to you, my sneak attack is indeed better. At least I killed a Spirit Master, while your previous sneak attack was in vain."
Yang Haoran controlled Waning Moon to attack Old Town Chief while controlling the Yin spirit power to deal with the Guardian Spirit that wanted to approach him again. While doing these two things, he still had the heart to laugh and retort to Old Town Chief.
"Heh heh, you're good at flattering, but soon I'll capture you and pluck out your tongue first."
Old Town Chief coldly laughed and stopped forming seals, and a powerful power fluctuation erupted from his body.
"Spirit summoning, Evil Ghost Devours Heart!"
A low, muffled voice came from Old Town Chief's mouth, and a large amount of spiritual power surged out from his body. Several Yin Qi gathered rapidly above his head, each one as thick as a water bucket.
In just a few breaths, a terrifying, gigantic ghost took shape. Its body was enormous, over 65 feet tall, but it was different from a normal ghost. It was a manifestation of spirit summoning, a type of magical entity, and strictly speaking, it wasn't a ghost, but rather a ghost-like existence.
Although it wasn't a real ghost, its appearance was just as terrifying as a ghost. Some people called it an evil ghost, while others called it a fierce ghost, with various names.
After the evil ghost took shape, it let out a terrifying laugh, and its massive hand reached out to grab Waning Moon, which was still attacking Old Town Chief
