3009 Troublesome
“Stop him right away! He’s using blood as a lure to draw ghosts from all around!” Wanyan Shisan exclaimed, chopping down one of the green-haired corpses as the other charged at him.
Hearing this, Feng Jiu rushed forward; however, as soon as she approached, she was thrown back by a stream of air from the condensed blood, and she went back several steps before regaining her footing.
She saw the old monster close his eyes and mutter to himself. The blood on his chest slowly seeped out, forming a large pool of blood underneath his body. The blood was divided into paths along the blood stains of the blood array, enhancing the blood array’s power.
At this time, a blood-red light emanated from the two empty eye sockets on the skull stick that had been driven into the centre of the ground. Ghosts and demons poured out of the skull’s open mouth and gathered in the blood array, greedily sucking the vital energy and blood.
Wanyan Shisan, having burned yet another green-haired corpse, approached Feng Jiu, his expression changing as he took in the scene at the blood array. “This is troublesome.”
“How did his ghosts come from? What will happen as a result?” Feng Jiu asked.
“From the underground.”
Wanyan Shisan looked at the blood array with a solemn expression. “The strength of the ghosts that inhale vital energy and blood will be greatly increased, and if they are allowed to escape, I fear they will bring destruction to this town.”
Feng Jiu asked again, “The blood array seems very powerful. I was bounced away simply by approaching it. Do you have any effective solutions?”
“His blood array has already been activated. We can’t attack him until his blood has run dry. Let’s just stay on guard for now!” He looked at the ground and said, “I will break the three evil boundary barriers here, and then I will set the boundary barriers to keep the ghosts from escaping.”
As he spoke, he took a few steps back, took out a small flag and waved it in his hand. The ghosts hiding in the corner were collected into the flag by him. As he walked around, he found the three evil boundary barriers’ break point and planted a small red flag there.
Just after the red flag was placed, he mobilized his spirit energy. A blue fire rose from the flag and quickly devoured the airflow, purifying and destroying the boundary barrier full of evil aura. He then inserted a few small flags on the ground around him and quickly laid another boundary barrier.
Because the people who were outside couldn’t see everything inside, they had no idea what was going on inside. However, when the three evil boundary barriers were broken, the corpses lying on the ground and the scene inside caused them to shudder and scream.
Those who had been waiting outside the restaurant instinctively retreated. They took one step after another to the back until they finally fled screaming.
Wanyan Shisan and Feng Jiu were unable to care for those people at this time. They saw the old monster’s head drop, and his vital energy and blood finally ran dry. The ghosts seemed to crowd inside the blood array almost to the point of bursting, and the strong ghosts began devouring the weak ones.
There was another round of fighting and devouring until the countless ghosts were reduced to four or five enlarged ghosts. The blood array released a snapping sound, and four or five ghosts that had transformed into fierce ghosts also charged at Feng Jiu and Wanyan Shisan.
“Watch out!”
Wanyan Shisan yelled, pulled her behind him, and quickly attempted to subdue the ghosts.
