With Yin Yang’s command to release, the already massive lantern-carrying ghost suddenly swelled, its height surpassing ten meters!
The black liquid covering its body stretched as well, adhering more tightly to its form.
Even the lantern it held grew significantly larger.
Whether it was the blade-wielding ghost or the lantern-carrying ghost, the forms they usually displayed were merely their ‘energy-saving mode.’
There was no other choice; Yin Yang’s Sequence was too low, and his spirituality was insufficient to sustain them in a full-scale battle.
If they were to go all out, they would drain Yin Yang dry in a matter of minutes.
This was why Yin Yang had gone to such great lengths to set up the array here, sacrificing the entire Li family to serve as a backup power source, allowing the lantern-carrying ghost to unleash its full power.
While its combat strength was not as high as the blade-wielding ghost that had reclaimed its Gall, it was immune to the Third Young Master’s ‘natural transcendent’ attacks.
After all, that power had originally belonged to it!
Woo woo woo~
The human head continued its relentless devouring, the suction from the black hole in its mouth growing stronger.
Chi Zhu and Ming Yang, however, abandoned all defense and launched a barrage of attacks!
Since they were already burning their divinity, they had to achieve the maximum possible results in the shortest amount of time!
Defense was nothing more than a waste of life!
From the moment they became Baleful Stars, they had been prepared to sacrifice their lives.
The lantern-carrying ghost stepped forward, making the earth tremble as it reached out to grab the Third Young Master.
The Third Young Master didn't even bother to defend himself.
He used his natural transcendent power to warp space; all attacks directed at him would fail to reach his person, while his own attacks were guaranteed to hit. This was the terrifying nature of a natural transcendent.
But this time, he had clearly miscalculated.
His methods of using folded space were completely useless before the lantern-carrying ghost.
The ghost’s massive hand seized him directly, then suddenly exerted force.
The Third Young Master let out a muffled groan, and the human head beside him aimed its mouth at the lantern-carrying ghost’s arm.
Accompanied by bursts of suction, the black liquid on the lantern-carrying ghost’s body became unstable and was gradually sucked into the head’s mouth.
That black liquid was the lantern-carrying ghost’s temporary power bank; how could it bear to lose it?
“It can hit the cultist!”
“Support it!”
Chi Zhu called out, and the phantom behind him began to burn fiercely.
Ming Yang also took a golden cube from his pocket and began to use his blood to unseal it.
Noticing this, the Third Young Master’s expression turned grim.
The power of ‘Number One’ from earlier was still fresh in his memory. Now that the human head was busy fighting this ghostly thing, if another one hit, would he be able to pull his consciousness back again?
While he was considering this, Ming Yang had already finished the unsealing and was injecting divinity into the seed.
‘Not good!’
The Third Young Master summoned the ghost hands again, trying to intercept Ming Yang.
But the lantern-carrying ghost saw through his intention. With a casual upward lift of its hand, the two ghost hands summoned by the Third Young Master went limp like noodles.
“Just what kind of ability is this?!”
The Third Young Master roared through gritted teeth.
In his mind, possessing the power of a natural transcendent should have made him invincible.
But who could have imagined that right after making his grand appearance, he would encounter something that countered him perfectly?
Hearing his question, the lantern-carrying ghost grew even more furious.
This piece of trash was using its own ability, yet had the nerve to ask what kind of ability it was?
Boom!
The ghost’s arm snapped off, forcibly sucked away by the black hole in the head’s mouth.
The black liquid surged, enveloping the wound to prevent direct contact with the sunlight.
Gurgle, gurgle~
In less than two seconds, the lantern-carrying ghost’s severed arm perfectly regenerated.
In that brief window, Ming Yang threw the lotus seed in his hand toward the lantern-carrying ghost.
The ghost instantly understood his intent, caught the lotus seed, and pressed it forward, delivering it directly in front of the Third Young Master.
“Devour!!!”
The Third Young Master roared, pushing the human head in front of him to its limit!
Boom!!!
The lotus seed exploded!
Just as the Third Young Master had guessed, it was once again a Number One specifically targeting the soul!
However, with the human head blocking the way, he didn't suffer much of the impact.
Just as he was about to continue his mockery, he realized the human head had been shifted away.
Although the head still appeared to be about two meters in front of him, the space within those two meters had been folded countless times by someone.
He had an illusion that he could spend his entire life and still never reach it.
As it turned out, his intuition was correct!
Blood flowed from Chi Zhu’s eyes as he pressed his palms together, redirecting the aftershocks of the Number One explosion toward the Third Young Master!
Just as the opponent tried to repeat his trick of using space for defense, the lantern-carrying ghost struck again, cutting off the other’s spatial abilities.
However, the lantern-carrying ghost had clearly shrunk by a large margin; it had used a significant amount of power just now to fold space and isolate the human head.
If it had been consuming Yin Yang’s spirituality at that moment, it would have sucked him into a dried corpse long ago.
Boom!!!
The Third Young Master’s soul suffered another critical blow, and this time the human head was too far away to help him.
Meanwhile, Yin Yang, standing on the altar, aimed his staff at the human head.
“Spirit-Snatch!!!”
The lantern-carrying ghost’s eyes turned crimson, visible even through the layer of black liquid.
It slowly raised the lantern to serve as a carrier for Yin Yang’s power.
Woo woo woo~
A wave of suction emanated, but this time, it was the ghost absorbing the spirituality of the human head!
The flesh on the human head rapidly turned into red mist and was sucked into the lantern, gradually reverting toward its original form of a black jar.
“Die!!!”
The Third Young Master’s skin split open, revealing dense rows of eyeballs underneath.
Buzz~
The two eyeballs on the human head suddenly glowed, and an aura belonging uniquely to an evil god rippled outward.
He had actually woken up from the soul shock once again.
Gurgle, gurgle~
The lantern-carrying ghost’s arms split open, and eyeballs began to surface one by one, rolling around with greedy gazes.
It had been parasitized!
As that aura brushed over Chi Zhu and Ming Yang, their skin also split open, parasitized by eyeballs.
This caused their expressions to turn heavy, and they exchanged a look, both prepared to face death.
What was even worse was that because of their fight, the outer barrier had already shattered. Now, this aura was rapidly spreading toward Huang City!
If left unchecked, Huang City’s fate would be the same as Huanggang’s!
Seeing this, Chi Zhu gritted his teeth, his divinity turning violent once more.
He turned to look at Ming Yang. Though he didn't speak, their years of unspoken understanding allowed Ming Yang to instantly read the meaning in his eyes.
There were some things that someone had to do.
“Got it!”
Ming Yang nodded firmly, then immediately pulled out a device to report to Headquarters.
“Headquarters, Headquarters! The Li family of the Huang City Security Bureau has defected and joined the Shadow Lotus Church!”
“And they have been possessed by an evil god!”
“The—”
Before he could finish, the communication device in his hand exploded!
The one who attacked wasn't the Third Young Master, but Yin Yang.
He couldn't beat a Baleful Star Demigod in a duel, but destroying a communication device was no problem at all.
Chi Zhu adjusted his breathing, and the phantom behind him suddenly inhaled!
Streaks of divinity spread out, sucking all the surrounding evil god aura into its mouth.
The price of doing so was that the number of eyeballs on his body grew more and more numerous.
