As soon as Zhen Chan finished speaking, the black swamp in the center of Suohun Town exploded.
A three-meter-tall skeleton giant rose from the ground. The dark green mucus seeping from the gaps between its ribs dripped onto the ground, corroding the hard black stone into honeycomb-like holes.
The flickering ghost fire in its eye sockets suddenly split into hundreds of points, shooting to all parts of the battlefield like meteors - the corpses that were hit instantly swelled up into blood-colored balloons, exploded with a "bang", and turned into black mist of vengeful spirits, which instead entangled the people in the three western halls.
"Oh no! This is the corpse of Devouring Heavenly Lord!"
The moment he saw the giant's corpse, the Soul Capture Hall Master instantly recognized his identity and exclaimed in surprise.
"Kenshin, these corpses have already mutated. If we don't stop them, I'm afraid we will all perish here."
The Soul-Shening had an unsightly expression and his tone was filled with solemnity.
At this time, Wanjian Zong and others also put aside their desire to fight and began to concentrate on dealing with the behemoth in front of them.
The Lord of Eclipse Moon Palace took the first step, and his Crescent Moon Blade slashed on the knee of the skeleton giant, but only a few sparks flew.
The skeleton suddenly bent over, and its finger bones grabbed Bei Fusheng like sharp claws, and the phantom fire at its fingertips actually burned through the shield of his Death Scythe.
Bei Fusheng retreated three feet in shock, and when he looked down, he found that his cuffs had been burnt into charcoal, and his exposed forearms were covered with spider-web-like black lines - that was a sign of the backlash of the corpse's evil spirit.
The Soul-Devouring Banner of the Soul-Capture Hall Master was ignited by the bone fire, and countless screams of evil spirits burst out in the black smoke.
He bit his tongue hard, and the blood that spurted out formed a spell on the banner: "Use the soul as a guide, borrow the corpse to revive the soul!"
Before he could finish his words, the refined corpses around the battlefield suddenly tore their chests collectively, and the vengeful spirit cores that jumped out crashed into the skeleton giant like moths to a flame.
Those cores exploded in the bone fire, and the resentment released temporarily suppressed the spread of the phantom fire, but caused a vague outline of a human face to emerge in the giant's chest - it was the Devouring Heavenly Lord who was sealed thousands of years ago!
"roar."
The face of the God-Swallowing Heavenly Venerable in the chest of the skeleton giant suddenly twisted, and he grabbed a mountain with his finger bones and smashed it towards the Four Imperial Guardians. As the gravel flew, Wu Wudi's God-Breaking Spear was split in half by the bone blade.
"Puff--" The energy shield of the Soul Capture Hall Master shattered like glass, the ghost fire brushed past his shoulders and burned through his meridians, the golden blood dripping on the ground actually condensed into a hideous ghost face.
Just as the Eclipse Moon Palace Master's Crescent Moon Sword was about to cut into the giant's spine, the skeleton suddenly expanded three times its size. The dark green mucus spurting out from the gaps between the ribs turned into thousands of bone snakes, instantly entangled and killed hundreds of besieging gods. The "sizzling" sound of bones being corroded mixed with screams resounded through the sky.
Bei Fusheng covered the black lines on his forearm and retreated wildly, but he saw the dark fire from the giant's fingertips condensed into chains and shot towards him.
"Corpse Refining Technique? Blessing."
He swung out the Grim Reaper's sickle to block, but the sickle blade was covered with cracks the moment it made contact. Ghostly fire spread along his arm to his heart, and the spider web black lines suddenly swelled up -
"Isn't this too strong?!"
The Soul-Catching Palace Master suddenly stuffed the Soul-Devouring Banner into the giant's fingers. The blood and essence spell on the banner burst out with a dazzling red light, and thousands of resentful spirits turned into blood-red shields to block Bei Fusheng.
But the corpse of Devouring Heavenly Master only paused, and his finger bones suddenly closed together to crush the banner.
The remnant soul of the vengeful spirit turned into green smoke in the palm of its hand and was sucked into its chest cavity. The blurry human face became clearer, and fangs made of ghostly fire were revealed between the cracked jaw bones.
Zhen Chan's clasped hands were entangled by the bone snake. The golden light from the exploding Buddhist beads had just forced back the poisonous fog, but the giant suddenly leaned over and slammed his entire head into the center of the Soul Locking Town.
The black swamp boiled instantly, and countless corpses wearing black iron shackles broke out of the ground. The same magic patterns were engraved on their chests - they were the remains of the myriad gods that were devoured by the Devouring Heavenly Venerable back then!
