Immortal Cultivating Dynasty

The scene in front of him stunned Yang Xuan. Even though dozens of Fifth Stage and Sixth Stage ghost cultivators were attacking Lee Zong at the same time, Lee Zong didn't seem to be at a disadvantage in the battle against the ghost cultivators. He was able to defeat the ghost cultivators with his bare hands.    

    

The skinny old man who followed Lee Zong had already retreated a hundred steps away when Lee Zong and the ghost cultivators were fighting.    

    

Just as the ghost cultivator was about to fall into a disadvantageous position, Kuan Shu suddenly stepped back from the battle. Another ten Fifth Stage ghost cultivators followed Kuan Shu out.    

    

Just as Yang Xuan was wondering what they were going to do, all the other ghost cultivators except Kuan Shu showed a determined expression. Their bodies expanded rapidly and exploded on the spot.    

    

The ten ghost cultivators exploded into a cloud of blood mist. The blood mist contained a tremendous force. However, it didn't spread out. Kuan Shu opened his mouth and made a whale swallowing posture, like a rainbow absorbing water. He sucked all the blood mist in the surroundings into his body.    

    

A powerful aura was emitted from Kuan Shu's body. His eyes had turned blood red.    

    

"I'll stop him. All of you, rush in."    

    

Kuan Shu shouted at the group of ghost cultivators and rushed towards Lee Zong. As for the other ghost cultivators, they quickly dispersed and rushed into the Imperial Prison.    

    

"Attack!"    

    

Zhou Fengyuan shouted at the crowd and rushed towards the ghost cultivators. At the same time, the Spiritual Force condensed around his body. Other than Yuh Qingcheng, the rest of the people were the same.    

    

"Burning Heaven Fire!"    

    

The fastest one to react was Yang Xuan. He rushed to the entrance of the tunnel with the fastest speed possible. He stood in front of everyone, his body was burning with raging flames. Along with his shout, a ball of flames appeared on the wooden sword in his hand. It blotted out the sky and covered the earth as it flew toward the spectral cultivators.    

    

The flame contained a violent energy, forcing the group of spectral cultivators to stop in their tracks. They condensed Spiritual Force on the surface of their bodies to resist the sudden fire.    

    

However, no one had expected that after the huge flame landed on the heads of the spectral cultivators, it only exploded in all directions and then stopped moving.    

    

As a matter of fact, the name that Yang Xuan shouted just now was just a gimmick to scare people. Although the Li Yan that he controlled was powerful, it wasn't to the extent where he could defend himself against dozens of spectral cultivators who were close to him.    

    

However, Yang Xuan was satisfied when he saw the movements of the group of spectral cultivators hesitating for a moment. His goal was just to stall the ghost cultivators and let the others attack them.    

    

Zhou Fengyuan followed closely behind Yang Xuan and approached the group of ghost cultivators. He quickly formed all kinds of hand seals with both of his hands. Powerful energy was condensed in the square inch that he could control with both of his hands. "Divine Seal!" Following Zhou Fengyuan's shout, he pushed his hands forward in a strange posture. There was a white light between his hands. When the light fell on the heads of the spectral cultivators, it instantly turned into a huge formation. It enveloped all the spectral Cultivators.    

    

This time, it wasn't a feint like what Yang Xuan did just now. It was a formation that was filled with powerful energy. The ghost cultivators all condensed their attacks in an attempt to break the formation that Zhou Fengyuan had set up. However, this formation was incomparably solid. Although the attack of the spectral cultivators caused the formation to shake continuously, it didn't show any signs of breaking.    

    

On the other side, after absorbing the blood mist that the ten ghost cultivators had sacrificed themselves to transform into, Kuan Shu's strength had actually risen to the level of being able to fight Lee Zong in a short period of time. However, anyone with discerning eyes could see that this strength was only temporary. It would dissipate after a short period of time.    

    

What Yang Xuan and the others needed to do was to trap all the spectral cultivators. After Lee Zong got rid of Kuan Shu, they would be able to take out their hands to deal with these spectral cultivators.    

    

Kuan Shu and Lee Zong were fighting together. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had exchanged over a hundred punches.    

    

After Zhou Fengyuan used the 'God Attainment Seal' to trap the ghost cultivators, the skinny old man next to Lee Zong also attacked. He waved the crutch in his hand, and countless chains with strange runes engraved on them flew out from his sleeve. The ghost cultivator was trapped in the same spot.    

    

The inscriptions on the chains seemed to contain some kind of special power, which caused the spectral cultivators to be bound by the chains. He couldn't even move the Spiritual Force on his body. Immediately after, the old man waved the crutch in his hand. Countless Sword Qi containing a sharp aura flew out from the tip of the crutch. They flew toward the group of spectral cultivators.    

    

What was strange was that after these spectral cultivators were struck by the Sword Qi, although no blood was shed on their bodies, they were all screaming in pain. It was as if they had been dismembered by five horses. And looking at the expressions on their faces, it seemed like they were really experiencing the pain of death. It didn't seem like they were pretending at all.    

    

"Hey, bumpkins, who did you offend again?"    

    

The Black Panther's voice that hadn't appeared for a long time resounded in Yang Xuan's mind once again. Ever since he left Profound Gate Pass, Yang Xuan found that the time the Black Panther appeared was getting lesser and lesser. If it wasn't for the fact that Yang Xuan could still sense the Qi of the Black Panther every night while he was cultivating, he would have thought that the Black Panther had left secretly.    

    

Hearing the sound of the Black Panther, Yang Xuan felt a little strange and asked, "Eh, where have you been recently?"    

    

"It's because the demon pill you gave me tastes too good."    

    

In Yang Xuan's sea of consciousness, the Black Panther was lying on the ground. It used its two claws to touch its round belly and burped. "Recently, Master Bao has been digesting the demon pill you gave me."    

    

As it spoke, the Black Panther suddenly reacted and said, "Oh right, you still haven't told me why you provoked a monster again?"    

    

"This matter has nothing to do with me."    

    

Yang Xuan said, starting from the time when Emperor Wai was cultivating when he went berserk. He told Yang Xuan everything that had happened during the period of time when the spectral cultivators had invaded. After listening to Yang Xuan's story, the Black Panther couldn't help but sigh and said, "So that's how it is. This kind of thing is not uncommon in history. But what makes me curious is, why do you encounter such a lousy thing wherever you go?"    

    

As he spoke, the doubt in the Black Panther's heart still did not seem to have been resolved. "However, you said that it's a ghost cultivator invading the capital. Why did I sense the aura of a soul hunter while I was in a daze just now?"    

    

"Soul hunter?"    

    

Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment. His face looked very confused.    

    

"That's right, a soul hunter. They were a strange sect that suddenly appeared in Central Province tens of thousands of years ago. As the name implies, Soul Hunter can attack the soul directly if the soul is not strong enough. Those who were attacked by them would definitely become idiots. Therefore, not long after they appeared, they were attacked by all the big sects in Central Province. Not long after that, they disappeared without a trace."
