Divine War Pill Emperor

The tremors from the Ghost Temple plunged the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain into a state of panic.

The Flame Dragon was also forced to temporarily halt its warpath.

It hid fearfully within the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, observing the changes in the Ghost Temple.

Inside the Ghost Temple, Fang Yinzi’s Spell slowly ceased.

At the same time, on the seventh floor, a black statue standing a hundred meters tall—one that had gone unnoticed until now—suddenly began to tremble.

Before long, a black shadow coalesced and took form.

The shadow resembled Fang Yinzi.

”In the end, it seems I can only become a Ghost!”

Fang Yinzi sighed as he looked at the shadow that had just appeared.

He had tried to take control of the Ghost Temple, only to be trapped by it and become a Ghost himself.

Now, the Ghost he himself had coalesced was born into the world.

The Ghost floated gracefully and appeared before Fang Yinzi.

It had only a pair of indifferent eyes, which stared coldly at Fang Yinzi.

Seeing this, Fang Yinzi pointed a finger at the Ghost.

”Divine Techniques, imbue this vessel.”

He bestowed a portion of his Divine Techniques upon the Ghost.

The Ghost changed abruptly. A face appeared, and it took on the likeness of Fang Yinzi.

Fang Yinzi assessed it for a moment, then shook his head slightly.

’Unfortunately, the Ghost can only handle ninety percent of my power at most right now.’

’It’s just one step away from being able to perfectly withstand my full power as a Martial Emperor.’

’I suppose I’ll only be able to merge perfectly with the Ghost after that boy helps me escape.’

After muttering a few words to himself, Fang Yinzi silently recited an incantation.

RUMBLE!

The Ghost Temple shuddered.

A fissure appeared out of thin air.

Then, like a flash of lightning, Fang Yinzi’s Ghost shot into the fissure and vanished from the Ghost Temple.

It reappeared in the sky above the peak of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

Then, without a moment’s hesitation, it streaked toward the southwest at an unbelievable speed.

「In Guyue City.」

Grand General Ming Zhe brought his palm down with vicious force. This strike, containing the full sum of his power, was meant to kill Jiang Chen.

”No, don’t...!”

A cry of alarm came from someone in the watching crowd.

It was JinLing. Seeing Jiang Chen in mortal danger, she flashed forward and rushed toward him.

Tears of desperation streamed down her face.

She was terrified that Jiang Chen would be killed.

SWISH!

But before she could get far, someone grabbed her.

She looked back and saw it was her brother, Zhan Yang.

”Brother, let me go! I have to save Jiang Chen!”

Zhan Yang shook his head firmly.

”Sister, we can’t save him.”

”Even if we sacrifice ourselves, we’re no match for Grand General Ming Zhe. We’d just be throwing our lives away for nothing.”

”Come back. When I succeed, I will use the entire nation’s power to avenge him.”

Then, ignoring his sister’s struggles, Zhan Yang, Lu Beifeng, and Niu Tuo held JinLing back.

Tears streamed down JinLing’s face as she watched helplessly, certain that Jiang Chen was about to be struck dead.

Lu Beifeng and Niu Tuo were filled with regret. ”What a shame... for Jiang Chen to leave us like this.” They were truly helpless.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen didn’t know if his summons to Fang Yinzi had been effective.

He could only wait.

He watched as Grand General Ming Zhe’s palm drew closer and closer.

Cold sweat beaded on his forehead. He could feel death was just a breath away.

VMMMMM...

Just then, the heavens and the earth trembled.

The next moment, a ghostly light veiled the entire sky above Guyue City.

A terrifying, oppressive aura shot from the horizon, plummeting straight toward Guyue City.

Feeling this terrifying presence, Grand General Ming Zhe shuddered violently.

He looked up at the sky in disbelief.

He saw the sky veiled in that ghostly light as a shockingly dreadful aura approached rapidly from the distance, its speed beyond imagination.

The aura even carried a malevolent power that threatened to destroy everything in its path.

”What is that?”

Grand General Ming Zhe froze.

Meanwhile, Wen Shixuan, Qin Yun, Zhao Bing, and the others who had been certain of Jiang Chen’s death, all stared blankly at the sky, completely bewildered as to why such a terrifying presence was descending upon them.

But they could guess that this presence was undoubtedly related to Jiang Chen’s earlier actions.

”What is that?”

”I don’t know.”

”Such a terrifying presence... It’s countless times more powerful than the aura of Grand General Ming Zhe.”

They could all clearly feel the immense power of this presence.

Qin Muxue’s jaw had dropped once again as she looked toward Mr. Gu.

Mr. Gu’s face was a mask of sheer astonishment.

’What is this power?’

’How can it be so terrifying?’

Soon, Mr. Gu fell into deep thought.

Then, he suddenly exclaimed.

”This seems to be... it’s the power of the Ghost Temple!”

”Heavens! The Ghost Temple! How can he wield the power of the Ghost Temple?”

Qin Muxue, standing beside him, was very confused. Hearing Mr. Gu’s muttering, she asked uncertainly.

”Mr. Gu, what is the Ghost Temple?”

But Mr. Gu immediately fell silent.

”It is forbidden knowledge. It’s better that you don’t know.”

He seemed to be extremely familiar with the Ghost Temple, and fear was now blooming in his heart.

He spoke no more, as if bound by a solemn vow.

This left Qin Muxue even more bewildered.

She couldn’t comprehend what was happening before her, and the fact that even the mysterious Mr. Gu dared not speak of it proved that it was truly something forbidden.

WHOOSH!

In the sky, a ghostly light flashed past in an instant.

With a single whoosh, it appeared before Jiang Chen, too fast for anyone to react.

At that same moment, Grand General Ming Zhe’s palm descended.

The palm, which had been aimed at Jiang Chen, now struck the ghostly light instead.

”Hm?”

Grand General Ming Zhe’s expression flickered. To his utter astonishment, it felt as if his palm had struck cotton.

He was horrified to realize that in that instant, he had struck the ghostly light and not Jiang Chen.

The ghostly light was simply too fast for him to react.

The next moment, Grand General Ming Zhe felt a repulsive force erupt instantly.

BOOM!

His body was sent flying high into the air.

And at that moment, the ghostly light revealed its form—it was a shadow.

”A Ghost! It’s a Ghost!”

Mr. Gu’s entire body trembled violently. Facing the Ghost, he suddenly bowed low.

It was as if he had recalled something terrifying.

Then, after that single bow, he hurriedly fled into the distance.

Qin Muxue didn’t even have time to stop him.

The onlookers outside watched all of this, utterly baffled.

Now that the City Lord’s Mansion was destroyed, they had a clearer view.

But no one dared to approach the grounds of the City Lord’s Mansion.

They could only spectate from a distance.

WHOOSH!

Jiang Chen perceived a flash of ghostly light, and a figure appeared before him.

The speed was simply too fast.

Not much time had passed since he had sent the summons.

He instinctively raised his head to look at the figure.

He shuddered.

’A Ghost?’

He recognized it at once—it was a Ghost.

He had seen the Ghosts in the Ghost Temple before; they were absolutely unkillable monsters.

He never expected that what appeared now would actually be a Ghost.

But in the next moment, he was taken aback again.

He saw that this Ghost was clearly different.

For one thing, this Ghost had eyes, a nose, and a mouth.

The only thing missing was a beard.

And from its appearance, it was undoubtedly the old man from the Ghost Temple—Fang Yinzi.

”Fang Yinzi?”

He couldn’t help but exclaim in a low voice, unable to believe that Fang Yinzi was a Ghost and had arrived so quickly.

Fang Yinzi extended a hand and placed it on Jiang Chen’s shoulder.

In just an instant, Jiang Chen felt a warmth spread through his entire body. The next moment, all his injuries had completely healed.
