BOOM!

Within the forest, Murong Nantian thrust out with his spear. His might was like a rainbow, and with his powerful strength, the entire sky trembled. And just like that, the God Slaughtering Spear in his hand carried a biting cold killing intent as it slashed towards Gui Ying step by step.

Ka ka ka!

The long spear pierced through the air, and an extremely dense Spear Intent surged out, sealing off the space and causing the surroundings of Ghastly Shadow to seem like a cage, unable to break free.

The color of the sky and earth faded from that spear strike. It completely displayed Murong Nantian's powerful strength.

However, facing this scene, the ghostly figure still didn't show any signs of panic. It just calmly stood there, unmoving, as if it were mocking Murong Nantian.

The long spear rushed forward and arrived in front of Gui Ying in the blink of an eye.

But just at that moment, Murong Nantian's expression suddenly changed.

This is …

Suddenly, a deep chilliness inexplicably attacked him, causing Murong Nantian's soul to feel as if it were frozen.

What?

Murong Nantian's heart trembled. He subconsciously retracted his spear and quickly backed away.

At that very instant, Gui Ying's floating body, as well as the cold chilliness that spread everywhere, from who knew where, made Murong Nantian's heart tighten.

The chilliness was too terrifying. It could even harm one's soul. If he had retreated too late just now, Murong Nantian would have definitely paid a heavy price.

However, just as Murong Nantian was still in a state of shock, an even more horrifying thing happened in front of him.

A dazzling blue light streaked through the air, and with a speed that Murong Nantian couldn't even react to, shot into his eyes.

This ray of light radiated from Spiritshadow's eyes. It was merciless and cold, without a single shred of emotion. It was as if it originated from a deity that could ignore all living creatures in the world.

In an instant, Murong Nantian's pupils were dyed a demonic blue. It looked like a deep sea surface, and in the middle of the sea, a horrifying vortex was endlessly forming, as if a terrifying storm was brewing.

In an instant, Murong Nantian's eyes lost all color. It was as if he fell into an endless abyss. It was pitch-black. Not only that, his thoughts had also gradually slowed down at this moment, about to fall into a deep sleep.

This scene was extremely peaceful, but it was terrifyingly peaceful.

He could kill with just a glance? Also, the other party was a great power whose name shook the Azure Province. If such a thing got out, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. This method was too terrifying!

Weng! *

Just as Murong Nantian's soul was about to sink, a ray of light suddenly blossomed above his head.

It was a pagoda about the size of his palm. Its body was simple and unadorned, as if it had experienced many years of vicissitudes. On its surface were numerous strange and complex patterns.

At this moment, the patterns were blossoming with dazzling divine light, forming a protective barrier that protected Murong Nantian's soul.

"Eh?"

Upon seeing this scene, Spiritshadow let out a light gasp of surprise. His voice was stiff and sinister, carrying a trace of surprise.

Clearly, this pagoda was also a great treasure!

After a short moment, the blue light in Murong Nantian's eyes dissipated, and his soul regained consciousness.

However, his expression was filled with extreme terror.

"Lone Eyes, you're actually from the Baleful Yin race? …" "How is this possible!?" Didn't your clan leave the Nine Prefectures long ago? " Murong Nantian looked at Gui Ying, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Just now, Ghastly Shadow's methods made Murong Nantian confirm his identity, but exactly because of that, it made him even more terrified because it involved the ancient secrets of the continent of the Nine Provinces. He only managed to understand a few things from the Murong family's classical records, and those records were truly horrifying.

"Heh, I never expected that someone would be able to recognize my clan's identity after such a long time. This really surprises me …" Spiritshadow smiled sinisterly and did not conceal anything. Moreover, from his tone, it was obvious that he was extremely proud of his identity.

It really was the Baleful Yin tribe!

He, as the head of the Murong family, had been used to seeing the wind and waves in his life. Normally, even if Mt. Tai collapsed in front of his eyes, he would still be able to remain calm, but today, after knowing Gui Ying's identity, he could no longer remain calm.

Because that news was really too shocking. Compared to the collapse of Mt. Tai, it was akin to the collapse of heaven and earth. The entire Nine Provinces would be in turmoil because of that.

There was no doubt about this. In the history of the Nine Prefectures, this point of view had been proven more than once. Therefore, there was a saying that had been passed down since ancient times — the birth of a yin fiend and the calamity of the Nine Prefectures!

Phew...

Thinking of that, after a brief moment of shock, Murong Nantian quickly calmed down. After all, he was a person who had seen the world. He wouldn't lose his composure just because of that discovery.

"How did you get here? And what is it all about? " Murong Nantian frowned and asked calmly.

"Tsk tsk, your question is really stupid … You want to trick me so easily? " Spiritshadow's body trembled, as if he was mocking Murong Nantian's childishness.

But the next moment, he said, "But there's no harm in telling you. The world is coming and my clan will definitely return. At that time, the entire Nine Provinces will submit to my clan. Hahaha!"

"Arrogant!"

As the leader of the top powers in the Azure Province, he would absolutely not allow that to happen!

"Since your Baleful Yin tribe is so ambitious, I will stop you today no matter what your motive is!"

"Stop me?"

Gui Ying laughed out loud, "Haha, with your insignificant cultivation, if you didn't have a great treasure protecting you, you would have already been squashed to death by me. Still boasting shamelessly and wanting to stop me, do you have the ability to do so?"

Murong Nantian remained silent, but the aura he exuded didn't decrease in the slightest.

Looking at you, I'm sure you know some things about my clan. I don't mind telling you, my clan has already returned to an unprecedented peak, and now, when the world arrives, we will use the Azure Province as a springboard to slaughter the Nine Provinces. Do you think that with the power of the current Azure Province, it can stop my clan? Gui Ying said arrogantly, and then continued, "If you choose to submit to me, I can spare your life when my clan arrives for the war, and even spare your family if you are willing to cooperate, and after the war, I can promise you that you will be even more powerful, and that it is not impossible for you to dominate the entire Azure Province … Do you want to think about it? "

Gui Ying said in an extremely enticing manner.

However, when he heard Gui Ying's words, Murong Nantian's face became icy cold, and the killing intent in his eyes became even more intense!

When Gui Ying saw this, he regretfully shook his head: "A wise man knows his place. My Lord has already calculated the heavens's secret, once the great world arrives, the Azure Province will definitely fall. This is the fate of the heavens cannot be changed, if you submit, you can obtain endless benefits.

"Hur hur."

However, Murong Nantian sneered and asked, "Your master predicted the destruction of the Azure Province because of the Heavenly Mystery? … However, why would our human race's sages predict that when the great world arrives, the Azure Province's emperor would reappear?

"The way is different, but one does not seek it for oneself. Stop with your hypocritical thoughts …"

"Heh, what a pity …" Spiritshadow smiled sinisterly.

After he said that, the ghost's body suddenly flashed and rushed towards Murong Nantian like a ghost. His illusionary body emitted endless cold killing intent.

His body also emitted jet-black light, and an enormous evil shadow appeared behind him. This evil shadow held a sickle in its hand, and its appearance was haggard. Its entire body was wrapped up by the cloth ribbons, like a mummy that had just been dug out.

The instant this evil figure appeared, the baleful aura in the surroundings suddenly skyrocketed, as though they had entered a field of immortals, the pressure of this entire space was terrifying to the extreme.

Without a doubt, this evil shadow was Spiritshadow's Nihility God!

"Hee hee …"

In the next moment, Gui Ying laughed. The evil figure behind him suddenly moved, and with the wave of the sickle, a strange red light shot towards Murong Nantian's neck.

Murong Nantian's pupils shrank. His body was like a feather that was blown away. He floated backwards and at the same time, thrusted out the spear in his hand.

Clang!

A terrifying collision force caused Murong Nantian's body to tremble. A golden light appeared on his spear. The golden light was as sharp as Gengjin.

Clearly, this was the Concept of Earth, the Concept of Metal!

The Concept of Metal was known to have unparalleled attack power, and the spear was known as the overlord of weapons. When the two were combined, its might could shake the heaven and earth, destroying all obstructions!

However, the situation was not ideal when facing the sickle of the evil shadow.

The golden light was constantly being torn apart by the spinning scythe, as if the scythe was a wheel that could wear out any kind of power. Furthermore, after wearing off the power of the other party, the scythe was constantly approaching, just like the descent of death itself, silently reaping away life.

At the same time, the ghost itself instantly appeared in front of Murong Nantian like a ghost. Once again, deep blue light blossomed in its eyes. It was sinister and evil, causing chills to run down one's spine.

"Lowly human, lowly bloodline, how can you fight against me?"

Spiritshadow laughed out loud and began to attack like a torrential rain!

Crack!

A sharp whistling sound rang out, and with the help of the Ghost Shadow Terminator Eyes, Murong Nantian's mind relaxed slightly. The Evil Shadow's sickle went around the latter's long spear and went around his neck.

Without any hesitation, Spiritshadow laughed evilly and the sickle quickly slashed across.

Hm?

However, in the next moment, Spiritshadow's laughter suddenly stopped. This was because in the instant the scythe streaked past, he actually didn't feel the slightest bit of force.

Remains?

Weng! *

In that instant, a pagoda revolved above Spiritshadow's head and gradually grew larger. Dazzling divine light continuously blossomed from the pagoda, forming a cage that enveloped both Spiritshadow and his Nihility God shadow.

Gui Ying did not even think about it, with a thought, he commanded Xie Ying to attack.

With a crashing sound, the dark sickle fiercely slashed across the light barrier that was formed by the pagoda. A cold light flashed, and this strike even cut open a crack in space. A violent current of air swept out, showing its might.

However, the light barrier of the pagoda didn't move at all. It was as if the devastating attack just now was only a gentle breeze.

"How is this possible …?"

Gui Ying was startled and he took a step back. He looked around in bewilderment before locking his eyes onto the pagoda above his head. After a careful examination, his expression became even more surprised.

"It's actually that treasure! Looks like your identity isn't ordinary, I was actually careless … But it's nothing. Although this pagoda is powerful, it can only trap me temporarily. It can't cause me any harm … Sooner or later, I will break free. At that time, the one who will die will still be you. "Hee hee …"

Gui Ying was initially bewildered, but he gradually calmed down. He had indeed heard of this pagoda, and it had a great restraining effect on his tribe. If he were to use his full strength, he would definitely not be able to handle it. However, Murong Nantian did not have that kind of strength. At most, he only used the power of the second floor of the tower. To Gui Ying, it was not too much of a threat.

Murong Nantian remained silent. He had to admit that whether it was in strength or knowledge, this Phantom Shadow far surpassed him. Therefore, even though Murong Nantian had many treasures with him, he still seemed powerless.

"I'm guessing that you went through so much trouble to come here, you must have some sort of motive, right? As long as I trap you and delay you for a while, do you think you can achieve your goal? " Murong Nantian pondered for a while before probing.

Spiritshadow smiled in disdain.

"Your thoughts are too simple. This space has long been isolated by me and no one can escape. Once I escape, all of you will die!" Tsk tsk, moreover, are you that sure that I am only one person? Hahaha, the wheel of destiny, no one can stop it! "

"You have an accomplice?" Murong Nantian shivered. The arrogance of the ghost shadows made his heart feel even heavier. He did not know what the other party's goal was, nor did he know how many enemies they had. He was completely like a headless fly.

"Hehe, are you panicking?"

Gui Ying smiled sinisterly, "My clan's Divine Light will once again shine on the World of the Nine Continents. I can give you one last chance, surrender to my clan and become my clan's slave. I'll spare your life!"

Spiritshadow once again spoke out as if he had turned into a divine staff.

"Spare me and not die?" Murong Nantian sneered and disdainfully said, "Why would I, Murong Nantian, need to beg for my life from you people who are neither human nor ghost?"

"Indeed, no one can stop the wheel of history, so your clan is fated to be like the past. Exiled from the Nine Provinces, disdained by the world!"

"How dare you!"

Murong Nantian's words caused Spiritshadow to be enraged. That history was the eternal humiliation of his clan. Now, it was dug up by Murong Nantian. To the proud Spiritshadow, it was like stabbing his heart with a knife.

"You dare to blaspheme against my clan. I will definitely torture you and use your fear to pay tribute to my clan's dead spirits!" Spiritshadow roared furiously, and the murderous aura around his body seemed to have condensed into reality.

"You can come out first." Yet, Murong Nantian was not afraid. As the master of the Murong family, if he lacked even this bit of courage, wouldn't he be a joke?

In reality, in the Murong family, there were quite a few people who were even stronger than Spiritshadow. For Murong Nantian to become the master of the family, other than his proud talent, one could also see his extraordinary ability!
