Chapter 215: Chapter 212 Corpse KingBuzz, buzz. In the commotion above the Blood Pond, the Crimson patterns at the bottom of the Blood Soul Pond where Ye Xuan was located suddenly lit up beneath his feet, spreading quickly throughout the pond’s bottom. Meanwhile, the array in front of him also began to shake violently, as a rapid surge of crimson light emerged. "What’s going on?" While Ye Xuan was preparing to break the array, he couldn’t help but frown at the scene in front of him. However, before he could figure it out, the coffin in the center of the array suddenly released an extremely evil fluctuation. As this wave of energy swept through, the remaining Blood Soul Stones and the Blood Soul Crystal in the center of the array quickly dimmed as if their energies were being drained, furiously pouring into the coffin. "Someone above has prematurely activated the array; I’m afraid our plan to seize the Blood Soul Crystal is going to fall through." Flood Dragon’s expression changed as he watched the remaining nine Blood Soul Stones and the Blood Soul Crystal, the size of a human head, dim at an astonishing rate. As this draining process continued, the coffin began to tremble. "What exactly is in this coffin?" Feeling the increasingly terrifying evil aura, Ye Xuan frowned as streams of black mist began to continuously spill from the coffin. This obscure mist floated out and twisted, spreading rapidly. "The power of the Blood Soul Crystal has been drained so quickly." As the black mist spread, Ye Xuan suddenly looked down at the Blood Soul Crystal, only to see that what was once a vibrantly energized crystal had now turned into a regular stone, utterly devoid of any aura. Crack! The energy-drained Blood Soul Crystal rapidly cracked open, eventually shattering into pieces. Boom! Just as Ye Xuan was taken aback, the lid of the coffin suddenly flew off, and an astonishing evil death aura burst forth. The next moment, amidst the dispersing black mist, a figure sat up from it. In his line of sight, there was a middle-aged man in grey clothes sitting in the coffin. His complexion was pale as paper, his features peculiarly demonic and as beautiful as a woman’s, but his eyes were dull and lifeless, devoid of any vitality, much like a ghost. "Five days earlier than anticipated. Was it you who disturbed my resurrection?" The handsome middle-aged man twisted his neck as he fixed his gaze on Ye Xuan and Flood Dragon, now in human form, his eyes revealing an indescribable chill. "What if it was? And who are you, a demon or ghost from the Black Demon Sect?" Seeing the lackluster Blood Soul Crystal, Ye Xuan’s expression also turned sour, and he replied coldly. "Yes, then you must die!" The handsome middle-aged man’s eyes suddenly turned fierce. His pallid, bloodless hand reached out toward Ye Xuan, and a claw imprint pierced through the air, reaching Ye Xuan in an instant with astonishing speed. Bang! However, just as the claw imprint was about to hit Ye Xuan, Flood Dragon threw a punch. Blue demonic power burst out, transforming into fist energy that shot out like a bolt of fabric, shattering the claw imprint. "Demon Clan?" A ripple passed through the emotionless eyes of the handsome middle-aged man, evidently surprised by Flood Dragon’s identity. However, it was only for an instant before he resumed his undead expression and spoke in a slightly stiff voice, "How could the Demon Clan appear in the Blood Soul Pond, hmph, although I have awakened five days early and my power isn’t fully restored, having devoured the power of the Blood Soul Crystal, I will kill anyone who dares to block me!" "Die!" With a murderous look on his face, the handsome middle-aged man’s surrounding black mist boiled furiously. A powerful soul wave emitted from him, solidifying into a tangible force. Numerous wandering souls in the Blood Soul Pond were sucked into his body, rapidly enhancing this soul wave. "This guy is probably one of the Four Great Ming Kings from the Black Demon Sect, the Netherworld Corpse King. He’s the longest surviving member of the sect, and due to his Cultivation Technique, he’s neither human nor ghost, yet his strength is undoubtedly formidable. At his peak, he was a Fifth Grade Martial Sect. You must be cautious of his soul assault," Flood Dragon warned Ye Xuan, then his body radiated an icy blue light. A terrifying cold bloom covered the pond’s bottom with a layer of solid ice, even freezing the pond water, sealing the wandering souls inside like amber. Feeling this astonishing chill, Ye Xuan’s expression grew solemn. He had never seen Flood Dragon truly display his skills. The last time they faced Tu Ba, it only took a little effort, but this time against the Netherworld Corpse King, he went all out. A Fifth Grade Martial Sect, now confronted by Ye Xuan, such a level of cultivation, even the Hall Master Ling Jingtian could not match. Truly, underestimated... "Ghost Devouring Heaven and Earth!" After absorbing enough roaming souls, the Netherworld Corpse King suddenly bellowed, his body trembling. Above his head, an astonishing vortex suddenly appeared. Within the vortex, it seemed as if billions of souls were howling, emitting piercing ghostly screams. The vortex, like the mouth of a malevolent spirit, rapidly opened wide as if to devour everything. As the vortex expanded to several dozen meters in diameter, the Netherworld Corpse King abruptly threw it forward. Wherever it passed, it released a terrifying suction force, pulling even the rubble at the bottom of the lake into the vortex, sweeping fiercely toward the Flood Dragon. "Ice and Flame Double Strike!" Icy blue light glowed on its body as if it solidified. The Flood Dragon’s cold, gigantic eyes also moved abruptly, its dragon mouth opening wide. A beam of icy blue light shot out like lightning, striking the black vortex with astounding force. Boom! At the moment the two terrifying attacks connected, a disaster-like shockwave swept out in all directions, boiling the entire Blood Soul Pond. At that moment, several water columns, each several meters high, suddenly burst from the surface of the Blood Soul Pond, and the ground trembled violently. The Heavenly Demon General and others changed their expressions. What level of confrontation had to occur to cause such a terrifying shockwave? That young man actually possessed such incredible capability to stand a fight against their Netherworld Corpse King? Everyone was astounded, but Mu Yan was very clear that with Ye Xuan’s strength, he probably couldn’t achieve this. The one battling fiercely with the Netherworld Corpse King at the bottom of the pond was undoubtedly the Flood Dragon. "What should we do now?" The Blood Demon King, also by the Blood Soul Pond, frowned and looked toward the Heavenly Demon General. They were making one mistake after another. From the moment Ye Xuan broke in, they had sensed something was wrong. Now the situation had escalated beyond their expectations. "Let’s wait a bit longer. If there’s still no result in a while, we’ll go down and check," the Heavenly Demon General said after a moment of deliberation. Hearing this, the others nodded. Although the Blood Soul Pond was extremely dangerous, with several more people going down, there shouldn’t be any problems. Moreover, now that the Ten Thousand Ghosts Extermination Formation was activated, the evil souls in the Blood Soul Pond were at their fewest, so they should be able to break through. But if even the Netherworld Corpse King couldn’t resolve the opponent, what effect could they have by going down? At the back of the crowd, Mu Yan, upon learning the Heavenly Demon General’s plan, flashed a look of determination in her eyes and quietly retreated. She knew that at this time, she couldn’t let the Heavenly Demon General and his men enter the Blood Soul Pond to disturb Ye Xuan. She had to make some moves, create some trouble for the Heavenly Demon General, break the prohibitions deep in the valley, and let the high masters of the Six Great Sects come in. With this in mind, she quickly disappeared among the crowd. Below in the pond, the fierce battle was still continuing. "Corpse King Ghost Flame Wave!" The Netherworld Corpse King’s arms flickered with light, his True Qi boiling and rubbing rapidly, igniting a layer of eerie green flames. These green flames formed fiery rings around his arms, and as he punched out, these rings on his arms also shot out in wave-like patterns, rapidly enlarging, even blasting a vacuum in the bloody waters. "Ice and Flame Double Strike!" The Flood Dragon deeply brewed a breath of Dragon Breath. In its pupils, the left eye flashed with icy blue light, while the right eye emanated fiery waves. As it exhaled a Dragon Breath, a stream mixed with terrifying ice and fire energy also spewed out, intertwining two drastically different elemental energies. Boom! The deafening impact echoed, and the bottom of the pond instantly cracked into large fissures, shattering. "The fusion of dual-elemental techniques truly has great power; the innate advantages of Demon Beasts are indeed far stronger than humans." Seeing the compatibility of ice and fire elements previously, Ye Xuan was somewhat astonished. In Martial Arts, the most powerful were elemental martial arts; however, the arts that combined two, even three, elements were naturally much more powerful than single-element martial arts. Both figures were knocked back, but in the next moment, the Netherworld Corpse King suddenly narrowed his eyes and released a soul shockwave, sweeping out fiercely. Caught off guard, the Flood Dragon was stunned by this soul impact. By the time it regained its senses, a shadow had already flashed by its side, charging toward Ye Xuan. "Ye Xuan, be careful!" The warning was ultimately a beat too slow. Affected by the soul impact, Ye Xuan was immediately struck, blood flowing from his nose and mouth as he was blown backward. Meanwhile, the Netherworld Corpse King’s figure appeared in front of Ye Xuan, his lips curling into a sinister smile. His pallid hand, shrouded in dark energy, suddenly reached out, grabbing directly at Ye Xuan’s throat. Instantly, a violent, evil absorption force burst forth from his palm, seemingly intent on devouring Ye Xuan’s soul alive.
