Everyone's hearts sank. They hadn't expected the Ghost King to catch up so quickly, and there were still no clues about the restrictions Jing Teng had mentioned for dealing with the Ghost King.
Zhao Hao also scrambled to his feet instantly. Even though he had been through a lot, his face was still burning. After all, it was too embarrassing to be seen by so many people and ghosts kneeling and bowing to a dead man with his buttocks sticking out.
A giant ghost face materialized again in mid-air. Staring at the Immortal Lord Baopu in the Bronze Pavilion, he couldn't help but sigh, "I never thought that even a great immortal lord could only lie here quietly after his death."
Jing Teng frowned: "Why didn't you dare say this when the Immortal Lord was alive?"
The Ghost King sneered, "Death is death, and now you are going to die too."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Ghost King shot out a pale white beam from his eyes. Normally, people would just banter at this point, but no one expected him to attack without warning.
Because Qiu Honglei and Jing Teng were standing together at that moment, two beams of light shot towards them from the left and right, so fast that they didn't even have time to react.
At this moment, a figure blocked their way. It was none other than Zu An. He didn't have time to move the two women away, so he could only use his power to swing his sword at the two beams of light.
Although most of the pale rays were dispersed, some still landed on him.
Zu An was about to use the Primordial Chaos Scripture to repair his injuries when he suddenly paused, because he didn't feel any harm.
But he knew that the Ghost King would never use any useless skills.
At that moment, Jing Teng's anxious voice rang out: "Be careful, this is the Demon King's Eternal Slumber Gaze!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zu'an felt a wave of sleepiness wash over him, which startled him.
With his current cultivation level, he could go ten days or half a month without sleep and be fine, so how could he suddenly feel so sleepy?
Upon hearing the words "Eternal Gaze," Zuan, though he had never heard of it before, could roughly guess what kind of effect it would have.
Seeing his eyelids drooping and him about to fall asleep at any moment, Qiu Honglei was almost in tears. The girls had previously said in private that this guy was willing to risk his life to pick up girls, and she had witnessed it again this time. Although she was saved, she couldn't feel happy at all.
He hurriedly channeled his vital energy into his body, trying to help him regain consciousness.
Unfortunately, the vital energy she channeled seemed to sink without a trace, having no effect whatsoever.
"Lin Bing Dou Zhe Jie Zhen Lie Qian Xing, Zhen Lie Zai Bei, Xuan Wu, heed my command!"
Jing Teng's sharp cry rang out, and a huge phantom of a tortoise and snake enveloped the group. The next second, two more pale rays shot out, but they were blocked by the Xuanwu's protection.
"You actually managed to withstand my Eternal Slumber Gaze for so long?" The Ghost King was somewhat surprised, but quickly laughed, "It doesn't matter, you'll eventually fall into slumber anyway."
His former subordinates, the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick, were easily defeated by Zuan. He had a deep memory of Zuan's purification ability and always felt that he was a threat. So, his first priority was to deal with him.
However, having witnessed his incredibly fast teleportation speed before, I was worried that a missed attack would put him on guard, so I decided to strike where he would have to defend.
Anyway, Jing Teng was a woman he was somewhat wary of, so this was a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
The subsequent plot unfolded exactly as he had anticipated.
Hmph, he's just a lecherous scoundrel, I can take him down in no time.
The only somewhat unexpected thing was that Zuan didn't immediately fall into a deep sleep; this guy was indeed a bit strange.
It's important to understand that this time, the use of Eternal Sleep Gaze was different from when he dealt with those two beautiful women. Back then, he was just casually dealing with someone else's sacrifice, but this time he used all his strength. The power of Eternal Sleep Gaze was more than ten times greater than before.
Just as he was about to make another move, Zu'an roared, "Your Majesty, are you just going to stand by and watch the show? If we die, you're finished too!"
Zhao Hao snorted: "Mind your own business!"
Although he said that, he still moved and attacked the Ghost King in mid-air.
Previously, I was caught off guard and almost fell victim to his Demonic Sound Soul Absorption. Now that I've used the Human Emperor Seal to protect myself, I'm not so afraid of him anymore, and it would be even easier for me to leave.
But he knew that Zaun had many secrets and wanted to take the opportunity to see what he had up his sleeve.
At the same time, Jing Teng was a woman full of secrets, and since he hadn't found his destiny with immortality, how could he bear to leave?
The Ghost King was also surprised that this guy would rush up on his own initiative. The two quickly engaged in a fierce battle, with various terrifying fluctuations spreading out in all directions. It was unclear how the tomb was designed, but it was completely undamaged and instead absorbed their scattered power.
However, he didn't have time to think about it at the moment, and instead looked at Zhao Hao with some surprise.
This guy is much more powerful than I imagined. As long as he doesn't rashly leave his body, it seems I can't do anything about him.
It should be noted that the Demonic Sound Soul Absorption can only absorb beings weaker than itself, while Zhao Hao is incredibly powerful, with his soul and body closely connected, so it's impossible to extract him by force.
Left with no other choice, he could only order the six demon generals: "Kill them!"
"Yes!" The six skeleton knights, their bodies shrouded in black mist, rushed towards the three from Zaun.
Now that Zaun is under the influence of the Eternal Gaze, they can no longer use the terrifying purification ability that wiped out the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick.
With their strength, they naturally had no fear of those two delicate girls.
Meanwhile, Zu'an was hit by the Eternal Sleep Gaze, and Mi Li's voice quickly rang in his mind: "This is a sleep-inducing technique, and its grade seems to be quite high. You should quickly run the Primordial Chaos Scripture, its purification ability can play a certain role in resisting it."
Sensing the anxiety in her voice, Zu An didn't hesitate and immediately began frantically circulating the Primordial Chaos Scripture, which relieved him of the feeling that he was about to fall into a deep sleep.
