"PUFF!"
"PUFF! PUFF!"
The disciples of the Ghost Corpse School had already fled several miles in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, clouds of blood mist erupted from their seven orifices—eyes, mouth, nose, ears...
Of the four escaping on Flying Swords and the one fleeing with a Lightness Talisman, none evaded this terrible fate.
One head.
Two heads.
Three heads... each blood like a crimson flower.
Five crimson flowers blossod simultaneously.
The scene was bloody and brutal. As the "petals" scattered, a large amount of thick blood drenched their robes. Their robes, dyed crimson, transford the five into mbers of the wedding procession.
With their masters dead, the soaring Flying Swords also lost control and plumted from the sky.
Soon, Shen Mo and Chen ngze saw five figures in blood-red robes staggering toward the wedding procession. Each of them, strangely, still carried a black coffin on their back.
It looked utterly out of place, yet it sohow perfectly matched the wedding procession’s bizarre atmosphere.
「...」
"What happened? I didn’t see any magical attacks," Chen ngze said, her face etched with shock.
The unknown is always the most terrifying.
The five disciples of the Ghost Corpse School, including the Ghoul from before, had clearly been killed by so bizarre ans beyond ordinary comprehension.
It was deeply unsettling!
Before Shen Mo could speak, the wedding procession advanced toward them.
From the bridal sedan, a pale, bloodless hand stretched out.
Once again, the curtain was drawn aside!
This ti, Shen Mo saw clearly: behind the curtain was a woman’s face.
She wore a magnificent red wedding gown embroidered with dragons and phoenixes and an exquisite, ornate phoenix crown—the attire of a bride on her wedding day. Though her face was heavily painted with costics, it couldn’t conceal her deathly pallor.
Pale, lifeless, grim, and terrifying...
Compared to her, ghosts like Hungry Ghosts and Drowned Ghosts almost seed endearing.
"BUZZ!"
Shen Mo only saw a flash of red, and an excruciating pain shot through his head as if it were about to explode.
The Bloody Fiend Pearl within him spun frantically.
"RUMBLE!"
Under this imnse pulling force, the Qi and Blood in Shen Mo’s Flesh and Blood, internal organs, and Chakras that had been surging toward his seven orifices were all forced back. His entire body radiated scorching heat, like a volcano on the verge of eruption.
PHEW...
Exhaling a long, blood-tinged breath, Shen Mo wiped away the blood trickling from his mouth and nose and quickly glanced at the panel.
[You have attracted the Glare of the Ghost Bride. Your internal Qi and Blood are uncontrollably surging toward your seven orifices.]
[You cultivate the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body. Under the effects of the Bloody Fiend Pearl, the Qi and Blood within your internal organs, Flesh and Blood, and fascia are stabilizing.]
[Amidst the violent boiling of your Qi and Blood, you have comprehended the profundities of the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body. Your Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body experience 10.]
The cultivation thod and magic panel updated:
[External Magic: Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body - Dragon Body (19/100)]
The Ghost Bride’s Glare? Does this an that just by her looking at soone, they’ll bleed from all seven orifices and die?
To kill with a look—that Skill is too terrifying.
If I hadn’t cultivated my Bloody Fiend Body to a considerable level, I’m afraid I would have followed in the footsteps of those Ghost Corpse School cultivators!
I never thought my Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body would achieve a breakthrough at such a critical mont of Life and Death.
This must be a blessing in disguise!
These thoughts flashed through Shen Mo’s mind like lightning.
He imdiately looked at Chen ngze beside him. She was holding a small Clay Figurine, its surface covered in fine cracks. Her face was etched with lingering fear!
"This is a substitute puppet I found in so ruins," she transmitted via Divine Sense. "As long as the attack isn’t beyond the ninth layer of the Qi Gathering Realm, it can take one fatal blow for . If it hadn’t taken that death for , I’m afraid I would have died from that Ghost Bride’s bizarre thods just now!"
Divine Sense transmissions could convey vast amounts of information in an instant. The crisis was imminent. With no ti for spoken words, the two quickly conferred using their Divine Sense.
"Senior Sister Chen, being seen by the Ghost Bride ans bleeding from all seven orifices to death. Hide well, and don’t let her see you," Shen Mo transmitted.
"And you?" Chen ngze asked, her voice laced with apprehension.
"I cultivate external magic; her Glare can’t kill yet."
Seeing the wedding procession still advancing, Shen Mo flicked his wide sleeve, stepped onto his Dragon Sparrow Sword, and flew toward the large red bridal sedan.
"CLANG!"
"CLANG!"
"CLANG! CLANG!"
Seven brilliant Big Dipper sword embryos, like stars, whistled out, trembling as they flew. Arranging themselves in the formation of the Big Dipper, they established a formidable Sword Array.
"Senior Sister Chen, I’ll try to draw the Ghost Bride away. Look for a chance to collect the belongings of the dead cultivators!"
Many cultivators in the wedding procession still had Universe Bags at their waists. The Flying Swords of the Ghost Corpse School disciples killed by the Ghost Bride had also fallen nearby, and their black coffins hadn’t been retrieved.
In Shen Mo’s eyes, these were all substantial amounts of Spirit Stones. Even if he couldn’t get the valuable treasure the Spirit Storage Rat ntioned, just collecting all these spoils would still yield a significant inco!
While alerting Chen ngze, Shen Mo also communicated with the Spirit Storage Rat, instructing it to watch for an opportunity to sneak into the grand courtyard and attempt to steal that priceless treasure. The terrifying Monster the Spirit Storage Rat had spoken of was the Ghost Bride. Seeing its master boldly withstand the Ghost Bride, it was no longer afraid and readily agreed.
As the Big Dipper sword embryos arrayed themselves, forming the Sword Array, a majestic Sword Light enveloped the entire wedding procession.
"PUFF!"
"SQUELCH!"
Under the onslaught of boundless Sword Qi, the blood-robed living corpses were almost shredded.
Shen Mo already knew that these mbers of the wedding procession, despite their eerie and terrifying appearance, did not retain the cultivation and Skills they possessed in life. Even the two Ghost Corpse School disciples from before, without using their Ghouls, could have heavily damaged these living corpses, let alone the mighty Big Dipper Seven Star Sword Formation he now controlled!
Shen Mo’s target, from the very start, had been the large red bridal sedan and the Ghost Bride within it.
Yet, even under the assault of such a sharp and powerful The Big Dipper Array, the large red bridal sedan remained undamaged, as if all the Sword Light struck empty space. It wasn’t that the Sword Light passed through it. Rather, upon striking the large red bridal sedan, the Sword Light and its force strangely vanished!
[You have attracted the Glare of the Ghost Bride. Your internal Qi and Blood are uncontrollably surging toward your seven orifices. You cultivate the Dragon Elephant Blood Fiend Body...]
A wave of dizziness washed over Shen Mo as his gaze t the Ghost Bride’s eyes within the sedan. In her lifeless eyes, Shen Mo could discern no emotion whatsoever.
No anger, no resentnt, no curiosity—only a dense, suffocating aura of death.
"The Big Dipper Array, Conversion!"
Shen Mo ford a hand seal, the Dao swords shifted, and The Big Dipper Array trembled. Under his urging, the power of The Big Dipper Array surged by another thirty percent, even the earth and rock beneath the large red bridal sedan were pulverized into fine sand.
Sword Light, dust, sword shadows, and fine sand mingled. Cascading everywhere, they obscured all vision.
