Chapter 264: Surrounded By Demons

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The sky was slightly bright.

The wind was slightly chilly.

It was autumn.

Jiang Lan strode to the courtyard but didn’t see Xiao Yu. He then walked out of the courtyard and left Kunlun.

Xiao Yu would sneak over sometimes so he had to confirm if she was here currently.

After walking out of Kunlun, Jiang Lan activated his One Leaf Vision in the deserted forest.

Then, he left Kunlun with his Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel.

Moments later, Jiang Lan stopped in front of the Ice Cicada Forest.

Logically speaking, this place was far enough, but this was a place where Imperial Monarch Xi He had appeared before. Thus, he decided to go a bit further.

A gentle breeze blew.

Jiang Lan disappeared on the spot.

A moment later.

He stood on the mountain.

With reference to the Ice Cicada Forest, this place was roughly two Ice Cicada Forests away from Kunlun.

It was very far, but not too far.

Imperial Monarch Xi He might not necessarily be able to deal a blow here. With his master’s cultivation level, he would be able to sense if his life was in danger and come over in time.

Since he had already gotten this fortuitous opportunity, he had to face the risks that came with it.

After making his preparations, Jiang Lan reached out his hand to touch the void line that flowed out from the fortuitous opportunity.

Boom!!!

The moment he touched the line, Jiang Lan’s mind seemed to be covered by countless voices. They were ravings, growls, pleas, reverence, and anger.

The incomprehensible voice began to clear.

He began to hear words.

“Fist God… Fist God… Unparalleled Fist God…”

The chaotic voices began to drown Jiang Lan.

The western branch of the Witchcloud Mountain Range.

The group of ghostly cultivators moved the materials meant for the Ghost Gate forward.

The more materials there were, the faster the Ghost Gate would open.

By then, the Demon Race would definitely not be able to withstand the otherworldly soldiers.

However, the opening of the Ghost Gate was rather complicated. With sufficient materials, however, the process would become more convenient.

There was no need to transport them directly to the front line. They could just drop them near the front line.

This path was behind Ba Country’s main battlefield. It was much safer.

Even if some demons mixed in, it would be difficult for them to cause much trouble.

True Immortals would be easily discovered in this area as it was covered with Ba Country’s Ghost Qi.

Thus, the demons that sneaked in were at most Human Immortals.

Human Immortals were nothing to them.

“I feel a little tired. What about you guys?”

A ghost cultivator suddenly asked.

At this moment, they were walking on a small path in the mountains, surrounded by a pitch-black forest.

“I think I feel a little weak too. I can’t exert much strength.”

A ghost cultivator immediately agreed.

Qing Mu clenched his fist and felt a little different from before.

“I feel the same way. It’s like something’s making us weak.”

“Everyone, be on your guard.” The logistics party commander immediately waved his hand to stop them.

He also felt weak.

Something was wrong here.

“Is it because of the forest?” A vigilant ghost cultivator immediately asked.

“The logistics team who had passed by here before mentioned that there should be no problems in this place,” a ghost cultivator replied.

“Then why do we feel weak?”

“How would I know? Why are you asking me?”

Qing Mu held his Fist God Wooden Tablet and said.

“When you hold the figurine of the Fist God, you will feel power.”

“I don’t feel anything,” someone immediately said.

“I have a feeling that yours is fake, right?” Another person said.

“Look ahead, there’s a huge rock.” At this moment, a sharp-eyed person saw a strange huge rock.

The group of ghost cultivators looked over and discovered a huge black rock that seemed to be emitting an aura.

They arrived in front of the boulder and felt even weaker.

“Let’s go. Get away from this rock. This rock is abnormal,” said the ghost cultivator commander immediately.

Just as they were about to leave, an attack suddenly surged over.

It was a spell.

“Defend yourselves!”

The commander shouted.

Boom!

The spell technique struck all of the ghost cultivators.

Hu ~

In the next instant, many ghost cultivators rushed out towards the source of the spell technique.

A large number of demons had appeared in the black forest.

Boom!

Both sides clashed and the ghost cultivators fell into a disadvantage. They were constantly forced back.

“A pointless struggle.”

At this moment, the stone titan appeared in midair. He pressed down with one hand, and an invisible pressure pressed down on all the ghost cultivators.

The ghost cultivator commander soared into the sky, wanting to shatter this invisible force.

Bang!

As the power collided, the invisible pressure began to distort.

However, the distortion quickly recovered and the ghost cultivator commander was unable to continue.

He was forced to land on the ground.

“You people don’t even know the Ghost Suppressing Stone?” After the stone titan resonated with the invisible force, its face was filled with contempt.

“It’s fine if you people don’t know about it, but you guys actually took the initiative to lean over.

“It seems that it was not easy for Ba Country to survive until now.”

He looked at the ghost cultivators and said coldly.

“Do it.”

This was an area covered by the Ba Country’s Ghost Qi. They could not delay the battle, in case something unexpected happened.

The ghost cultivators raised their green scepter high into the air.

“Break out, kill them!”

Roar!

With a furious roar, all of the ghost cultivators rushed towards one direction.

Boom!

Strength burst forth, and fist winds howled.

They didn’t need any fancy spell techniques. Their physical strength and cultivation power were all focused on their fists and feet.

Only a small number of ghost cultivators would use the Ba Nation’s ghost technique.

However, when they broke out of the encirclement, the other party also took action. A strong pressure came from the sky.

The Ghost Suppressing Stone emitted a bright light, directly weakening their strength.

Bang!

Some of the ghost cultivators were forced back.

Qing Mu was one of them.

“Don’t struggle needlessly. You all cannot escape. All of you, stay here.”

The stone titan stood in the air, exerting his influence.

At this moment, he was in a fight with the ghost commander.

Strength surged in all directions.

Qing Mu tried to break out several times, but he kept being forced back. He turned around to look at the Ghost Suppressing Stone, feeling that he was becoming weaker and weaker.

His fists could no longer gather any strength.

Everything was because of this black stone.

“I’ll go break the Ghost Suppressing Stone.”

As he spoke, he ran towards the Ghost Suppressing Stone. He then clenched his fist and punched out.

Boom!

He punched toward the Ghost Suppressing Stone.

Bang!

The deflection of attack sent Qing Mu flying.

“Fool.” The stone titan’s sinister voice rang out.

“This Ghost Suppressing Stone isn’t something you can break.

You are just killing yourself.”

Qing Mu stood up and rushed towards the Ghost Suppressing Stone again. He muttered.

“Unparalleled Fist God, please protect my fists.”

Boom!

Bang!

Qing Mu was sent flying again.

He didn’t stop. He continued to stand up. As long as this stone broke, they would win.

Right now, the ghost cultivators were at a disadvantage. They were being suppressed and killed.

“Unparalleled Fist God, please protect my fists and aid me in breaking the Ghost Suppressing Stone and killing the demons.”

Boom!

Bang!

Qing Mu was sent flying again.

At this moment, blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

“Those who are injured, go help Qing Mu.”

The commander resisted the high altitude pressure and immediately ordered.

At this moment, more than ten people arrived in front of the Ghost Suppressing Stone and punched out together.

Most of them had wooden tablets on them. They gritted their teeth and punched.

With this punch, either the Ghost Suppressing Rock shattered or they were severely injured.

They lowered their heads and looked at the figure embedded in the wooden tablet on their bodies as they whispered.

“Unparalleled Fist God.”

“Please protect my fists.”

“Please protect the Ghost Suppressing Stone.”

“Please help me to kill the demons.”

Bang!

Everyone was sent flying.

“Foolish beyond belief. Ba Country is indeed as foolish as the rumors say. Even three-year-old demons are stronger than you. Unparalleled Fist God? Ignorant fools.”

The stone titan pressed down with both hands, and a powerful force suppressed all the ghost cultivators.

“Send them on their way.”

Roar!

The demons roared and began to speed up their attacks.
