Chapter 158: Awaken!!

“Secretly plotting an ambush against a genius of the sect like this is considered against the sect rules, so making a single mistake is simply unacceptable. Even though this is a situation of a tiger against a hare, we, as the tiger, must act at full force. You may just be at the Sea of Qi stage, but we can’t give you even the slightest chance to return back alive,” the Dao Foundation stage Vice Peak Master said, an intense killing intent in his eyes.

Two blood-colored vortexes of light appeared in both of his palms and shot towards Xu Disheng! As the blood-colored vortexes swept and spun during their trajectory, they swept up a strong wind.

Xu Disheng’s expression turned grave. The Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda above his head trembled and spilled forth motes of profound yellow light which condensed into a screen in front of him.

“This Psychic Magic Treasure isn’t bad, but it’s wasted in your hands,” the Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak said, greed coloring his gaze as he looked at the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda. He clearly thought that it was a real Psychic Magic Treasure.

Xu Disheng was only at the Sea of Qi stage. Although the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda was a supreme Immortal Treasure, he couldn’t display even a single bit of its full might. The most he could do was forcefully use it a little bit.

Unexpectedly, the profound yellow screen of light stopped the advance of the blood-colored vortexes. They hung in the air momentarily, letting out an ear-spitting screech as they clashed.

But could the move of a Dao Foundation stage cultivator be only this much?

Xu Disheng’s expression became even more grave. He poured all of his might into the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda, trying his best to resist the attack.

The Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak let out a scoff. “Trifling Sea of Qi stage disciple, you think you can block my Nine Rotations Blood Pool?”

The moment he said that, the blood-colored vortexes erupted with power and spun even more!

Two rotations!

Dazzling blood-colored radiance illuminated the entire space. When they shone upon the sinister faces of the innumerable ghosts floating around, it painted a hell-like atmosphere.

The profound yellow light rapidly melted. As the blood-colored vortexes flew towards Xu Disheng, it started another rotation!

Three rotations!

There was a large amount of the power of heaven and earth infused in the blood-colored vortexes. Although it was still around 10 meters away from Xu Disheng, he could already feel the overwhelming might behind it that made people want to kneel before its power.

Xu Disheng eyed the blood-colored vortexes, which by now were already right upon him. He raised his hand and took out the Smoky Cloud Screen once more. He brazenly ignited its true soul, consuming the power at its deepest source to transform it into a shocking screen of white light to block the area in front of him!

Although this action could allow him to momentarily gain an extremely strong defensive power, it would irreversibly destroy this top-grade Magic Treasure, which was worth several thousand spirit stones, and turn it into countless irreparable fragments.

The blood-colored vortexes that seemed to be able to devour everything in existence collided with the blinding white screen of light, causing its advance to be slowed greatly.

However, this blinding white screen of light began to melt. It began to melt faster and faster, and as it did, the smell of blood became thicker and thicker. In only a few breaths of time, the blinding white screen of light would be completely destroyed.

Behind Xu Disheng, two of the Evil Spirits charged away. Their figures soon disappeared into the darkness.

Along with the command of the Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak, the blood-colored vortexes went through their fourth rotation!

Under the all-illuminating blood-colored light, the blinding white screen suddenly crumbled. The fourth rotation blood pool ruthlessly slammed into the screen of light formed by the profound light spilling forth from the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda!

At the same time, an Evil Spirit suddenly appeared right at Xu Disheng’s left side, a sphere of Ghost Force in its hand just like before. With an evil cackle, it slammed the sphere into the screen of light produced by the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda!

A massive explosion rang out, and in the midst of it was a clear ‘peng’ sound as the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda’s barrier of light broke.

The almighty Immortal Treasure was currently at the rank of a Psychic Magic Treasure, but Xu Disheng still couldn’t even bring out 20% of its true power.

Even an ordinary Psychic Magic Treasure required someone to be at least at the Dao Foundation stage to be able to bring out its strongest might, so the mocking words of Ghost Controlling Peak’s Vice Peak Master earlier weren’t wrong by any means.

Although the fourth rotation blood vortex also ran out of force and disappeared as a result of the barrier breaking, Xu Disheng’s expression only turned more grave. In the end, this was only the casual blow of Ghost Controlling Peak’s Vice Peak Master, but Xu Disheng had already exhausted almost all of his trump cards to block it.

After all, the Vice Peak Master was an experienced peak Dao Foundation stage cultivator. A Sea of Qi stage cultivator like Xu Disheng was as powerless as an infant against him.

Plus, it was only after reaching the Dao Foundation stage that it was possible to begin to exhibit the genuine might of many cultivation methods. It wasn’t like the Sea of Qi stage, where combat power was entirely dependent on Spirit Tools and Magic Treasures.

It was evident that Nine Rotations Blood Pool, the cultivation method belonging to the Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak, was extremely powerful!

From the time that the blood vortexes appeared, to breaking through the barrier of light produced by igniting the true soul of the Smoky Cloud and smashing through the defenses of the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda, only ten breaths of time had passed.

Xu Disheng barely managed to pull out the Demon Punishing Array Diagram and the White Lotus Array Flag in time before another Evil Spirit appeared right next to him. It mercilessly swung its ghastly white claw, which was clad in Ghost Force.

“Extinguishing Soul, Blood Light!”

The White Lotus Array Flag floated protectively in front of Xu Disheng as he consumed a large amount of Soul Force, allowing him to just barely use the strongest move currently available to him.

A small Evil Spirit skull soundlessly appeared. Its eyes were opened just a crack, leaking forth an inexhaustible bloody light from within, which completely illuminated the Evil Spirit stage ghost that had ambushed him.

Boom!

The White Lotus Array Flag only held out for several breaths of time before its defenses were broken by the Ghost Force claw, but it bought Xu Disheng a precious few moments.

“Aaaaaahh!”

A bitter scream roared out. The body of that Evil Spirit was caught completely in the blood-colored light, and black gas began to rise from its body. Its Ghost Force, which was raging like a fiercely blazing inferno around its body, started fading away at a speed visible to the naked eye. Aftering casting a resentful gaze at Xu Disheng, it rapidly backed away.

Countless Malicious Spirits were caught in the scattered rays of blood-colored light. They didn’t even have time to scream before they were turned into black gas.

“This is his trump card. That secret Ghost Dao technique,” the Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak, with his hands clasped behind his back, said to one of the Evil Spirits, who hadn’t moved all this time.

“Indeed, this secret Ghost Dao technique is extremely powerful, to be able to injure an Evil Spirit stage ghost,” that Evil Spirit said, transforming into the appearance of a scholarly middle-aged man. “But that’s the furthest extent of it. This old Realm Master thinks that this secret technique must have some ability to exert some special control over ghosts. After killing him, I’ll be sure to carefully search his soul.”

This Evil Ghost that looked like a scholarly middle-aged man was actually the Realm Master of the Zhao Territory!

The Zhao Clan of Mingxin Mountain Range’s Ghost Controlling Peak and the Zhao Clan of the Mortal Secret Realm’s Zhao Territory were both branch families of the main Zhao Clan from Wenyuan Mountain. There was a complicated and extensive network of connections between the branches of the clan.

The Zhao Territory was a Mortal Secret Realm the sect granted to the main Zhao Clan, so it couldn’t be considered strange for the Realm Master to use it to nurture ghosts.

To secretly get rid of Xu Disheng, Ghost Dominion Spirit Master had sent a jade slip to the main Zhao Clan of Wenyuan Mountain, asking for their assistance. With their strength and backing, they made many arrangements to ensure that they would be able to silently eliminate Xu Disheng without any problems.

If Xu Disheng died here, he would ultimately be declared to have been killed by ghosts while carrying out a task. With both testimony and evidence present, there wouldn’t be anything suspicious about it.

Even if most people could guess that Xu Disheng had in all probability been killed by the Zhao Clan of Ghost Controlling Peak, the sect rules of the Shangqing Sacred Sect stated that as long as there was no conclusive evidence, they wouldn’t convict any suspects.

.

The Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak nodded and instructed, “Hurry up and kill him, you two. Bring his soul here, and Brother Jingyuan and I will search his soul.”

The Realm Master of the Zhao Territory was named Zhao Jingyuan. Although his body was that of a ghost, he was regarded highly by the main branch of the Zhao Clan. No one knew exactly what kinds of shady business he was secretly doing for them under the cover of the Zhao Territory.

As a result, even the Vice Peak Master of Ghost Controlling Peak, Zhao Yan, had to be somewhat polite to him.

The other two Evil Spirits respectfully complied. Ghost Force began to swirl around their bodies as they too took on human forms and began to approach Xu Disheng, who was on one knee.

“Master,” Little Sky said, his deep voice reaching Xu Disheng’s ears.

“Didn’t you say you needed a full 7 days before you could awaken?” Xu Disheng said, his tone of voice sounding completely unaffected and devoid of emotion.

“I detected that Master was in fatal danger, so I had no choice but to awaken.”

Xu Disheng was silent as he once again forcefully activated the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda. An extremely weak profound light drizzled forth, forming into a thin barrier of light that looked like it would break with a single touch.

Little Sky hesitated a moment before saying, “I am the artifact spirit of the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda, but because of the restrictions of Soul Song, I can only dwell in this Soul Vessel. If I can return to the pagoda, I could activate a bit of its true power and bring forth a sliver of the original might of this ancient Immortal Treasure. Suppressing these people would then be as easy as crushing ants.”

“Then why are you hesitating?” Xu Disheng replied.

“Doing that would completely destroy this Soul Vessel and require you to completely refine and nourish one from scratch,” Little Sky said, starting to speak quicker as he noticed the approach of the two Evil Spirits. “Also, I will once again fall into a deep slumber, and I won’t regain consciousness until after a new Soul Vessel is refined.”

A rare hint of bloodlust appeared in Xu Disheng’s eyes, which were as resplendent as stars. In his sea of consciousness, he revolved the black Soul Force flute to its absolute limit. Xu Disheng spoke firmly, declaring each word with conviction.

“Soul Suppressing Vestment, explode!”
