Chapter 223 Phoenix Divine Fire

Huo Qinghuang's eyes focused, and the magic sword in his hand danced like the wind. The golden sword energy crisscrossed and chopped the rushing evil soldiers into pieces.

However, the ghost soldiers continued to emerge, as if endless.

Huo Qinghuang resisted while observing the movements of the Ghost King.

The Ghost King was seen standing in the center of the black fog, making seals with his hands and muttering something, obviously preparing some terrible evil spell.

"We can't let him succeed!"

Huo Qinghuang thought to himself.

She bit her tongue hard, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and the magic sword in her hand suddenly glowed with golden light.

"break!"

With a clear shout, the spirit sword turned into a long golden rainbow and went straight to the Ghost King's heart.

The Ghost King was casting a spell and I was caught off guard, so I had to resist hastily.

The golden rainbow collided with the black fog, causing a deafening roar that shook the earth.

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the figure of the Ghost King appeared.

There was a wound on his chest so deep that the bone could be seen, and black blood was oozing out.

However, a strange smile appeared on his face: "Interesting, a mere mortal can actually hurt this king."

Huo Qinghuang's heart sank. She had already used 90% of her spiritual power in this sword strike, but it only caused minor injuries to the Ghost King.

The power of this ghost king is even more terrifying than she expected.

If she had known that she would encounter this beast today, she should have killed all the ghost kings in the underworld when he caused chaos in the underworld.

Uh, that's not right. When she made a scene in the underworld, this creature might not have been dead yet, otherwise how could he not recognize her?

And although he looks majestic, he is not even an ant compared to the ghost kings in the underworld who are at the level of true immortals.

That is to say, because the spiritual energy in this world is cut off, the cultivators are dying out and finding it difficult to advance, that is why this Ghost King is difficult to deal with.

Huo Qinghuang frowned, wondering whether to use the divine blood to end the battle quickly.

At this moment, the Ghost King suddenly opened his bloody mouth and a terrifying suction force came.

Huo Qinghuang only felt that the blood in his body was surging, as if it was about to be sucked out of his body.

Her face turned cold, her thoughts moved slightly, and she calmed her mind as still as a mountain.

However, the other disciples of Sanqing Palace were not so lucky. Two disciples with weaker cultivation had their blood and essence sucked out and fell down like mummies.

Wu Chenzi's eyes were red with anger, but he could do nothing.

"Friend Huo!"

On the other side, Wu Xinzi showed a sad look on his face. He turned to Huo Qinghuang and shouted, "I beg you to lend me a helping hand. I want to kill this beast and avenge my disciples!"

As he said that, he raised the Tiangang Sword and rushed towards the Ghost King with a roar.

There was a fire of anger burning in his eyes, and he had no regard for his own safety.

The corners of Huo Qinghuang's eyes twitched, and she couldn't bear to look at it.

The Ghost King has at least the strength of the Nascent Soul stage. With Wu Xinzi's cultivation level at the initial stage of foundation building, he is totally like a moth flying into a flame and overestimating his own capabilities.

"Junior brother, don't!"

Wu Chenzi hurriedly tried to pull him, but was stopped by a group of evil soldiers and could not get close at all.

"court death!"

The Ghost King grinned grimly and waved his hand casually. A black evil spirit like a sharp blade slashed towards Wu Xinzi.

Wu Xinzi was simply unable to resist this powerful force and was hit by the evil spirit. He flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, blood gushing out of his mouth, his breath became extremely weak, and his life was hanging by a thread.

"Junior brother!"

Wu Chenzi cried out in grief and wanted to rush over to rescue, but he was entangled by the endless stream of Yin soldiers and could not escape.

Huo Qinghuang sighed, it seemed that this drop of divine blood had to be consumed.

In other words, she was moved by Wu Xinzi's love for his disciples, otherwise, even if he died in front of her, she would not even look at him.

“clang!”

The bloody blade light attacked again, Wu Xinzi had no way to avoid it, and was about to die on the spot.

"If I let you kill another person in front of me today, I, Huo Qinghuang, will have failed as a human being."

At this moment, Huo Qinghuang's cold voice suddenly rang out.

The next moment, a ray of golden flame suddenly lit up on the top of the barren mountain.

The flame took the shape of a phoenix, emitting a sacred aura. It seemed slow, but it was actually fast, and instantly met the bloody blade light!

"Phoenix Divine Fire!"

The smugness on the Ghost King's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by endless fear.

He frantically cast spells, trying to resist the horrific divine fire, but it was all in vain.

"ah!"

The Phoenix Divine Fire instantly engulfed the Ghost King. He let out a shrill scream and struggled in the black fog.

However, the Phoenix Divine Fire is the most yang fire and the fire of life, which is specifically designed to defeat ghosts and evil spirits.

No matter how the Ghost King struggled, he could not escape the burning flames.

The surrounding ghost soldiers were also affected by the divine fire and turned into ashes and dissipated between heaven and earth.

The monstrous black fog quickly dissipated under the burning of the divine fire, as if it had never appeared.

"No! This is impossible!"

The Ghost King shouted desperately, and his voice echoed in the night sky.

But soon, his body quickly melted in the divine fire, leaving only a faint remnant soul struggling.

Huo Qinghuang stretched out his hand and grabbed the remnant soul into his palm.

She frowned slightly, feeling the strong resentment and unwillingness contained in this soul.

Then, she swallowed the soul into her stomach without hesitation and began to refine it.

The Ghost King's cultivation is not weak, and his soul is more solid. It is just a remnant soul, but it contains a lot of energy. If you swallow him, you will get more merit.

As the Ghost King's soul was refined, pictures emerged in Huo Qinghuang's mind.

Just as she had guessed, the Ghost King was an evil cultivator who committed many evil deeds during his lifetime. Even after his death, he was still restless in the underworld. Relying on his evil magic, he caused a lot of trouble and was wanted by the underworld. He hid everywhere like a rat in a sewer.

This time, he secretly ran out from the underworld because he accidentally realized that a rare treasure seemed to be about to be born in this desolate mountain.

He wanted to obtain this rare treasure in order to improve his own strength, escape the pursuit of the underworld, and live happily in the world of the living.

Huo Qinghuang opened her eyes, and a strange color flashed in her eyes.

She looked down at the bloody dagger in her hand. This was the Ghost King's magic weapon, but now it had become ownerless.

Well, it just so happened that she had nothing useful in her hands, so she could use it temporarily.

"Friend Huo..."

Wu Chenzi and others stared at the scene in amazement, unable to recover for a long time.

Huo Qinghuang put away the bloody dagger and said calmly: "The ghost king has been eliminated, you can go back."

Wu Chenzi came back to his senses and said quickly: "Thank you, Daoist Huo, for your help. I wonder why the Ghost King sneaked into the human world?"

Huo Qinghuang said calmly: "Your cultivation is too low, it's useless to ask."

Wu Chenzi blushed, but he could not refute, so he could only say awkwardly: "Then the rare treasure here..."

"This matter has nothing to do with me. Whether you can find the treasure depends entirely on your luck."

Huo Qinghuang said without comment.

Wu Chenzi had no choice but to help Wu Xinzi who had fainted on the ground. He sighed and said, "Then we will go and look for him first. I would like to thank Daoist Huo. If you need anything, please come to Sanqing Palace to find me."

"etc."

Huo Qinghuang was about to nod when he suddenly remembered something. He took out a token from the cave and handed it to Wu Chenzi.

"See if this thing is yours?"

"What?"

Wu Chenzi didn't understand what was going on. He took it and looked at it with confusion, and his face suddenly changed.
