C181 A Crisis Has Arrived
Suddenly, a red figure flashed out from the thick fog. Qi Zhuohao, Shen Wanteng, and the others were shocked. This was a red Resentful Soul. Without a doubt, it was a high-level Resentful Soul. Its speed was so fast that it was difficult to see it clearly.
"Everyone be careful. A high grade Resentful Soul is not easy to deal with!" Shen Wanteng hurriedly warned everyone. Then, he used the Step Technique Martial Arts and rushed towards the Resentful Soul. They had just arrived here when they encountered a high-grade Resentful Soul. It seemed like there were definitely quite a number of high-grade Resentful Soul here!
Looking at the rapidly flashing Shen Wanteng, Qi Zhuohao was shocked. It seemed like the Step Technique Martial Arts Shen Wanteng used was the Swift Wind Flowing Shadow Step of Thousand Searching Sect. Shen Wanteng's speed was not any slower than a high grade Resentful Soul!
Qi Zhuohao and the others were on guard. When Shen Wanteng was less than three meters away from the Resentful Soul, Shen Wanteng suddenly threw out a Soul Extinguishing Powder. However, the Soul Extinguishing Powder was blocked by the light barrier formed by the Qi Of Corpse Barrier.
This situation immediately shocked Shen Wanteng, Qi Zhuohao, and the others. One should know that even an intermediate Resentful Soul could form a layer of light formed by the Qi Of Corpse Barrier. However, although that light membrane could resist the Soul Extinguishing Powder, it would also be corroded. However, the shield formed by a high-grade Resentful Soul was different. The Soul Extinguishing Powder had no effect on it at all.
Obviously, what Crazy Pockmarked-face Man said was true. If the Soul Extinguishing Powder was unable to deal with a high grade Resentful Soul, then even if it broke through the Qi Of Corpse Barrier light membrane, the Soul Extinguishing Powder would not be able to pose any threat to the body of a high grade Resentful Soul!
"Swish, swish, swish!" The high level Resentful Soul seemed to be angered by Shen Wanteng. It drew a beautiful arc in the air. It suddenly opened its mouth, and in an instant, arrows condensed from Qi Of Corpse Barrier rushed towards Shen Wanteng.
The arrows seemed to have materialized. They were formed from Qi Of Corpse Barrier. Of course... Resentful Soul could also cultivate. They could not cultivate essence energy. But they could absorb the Qi Of Corpse Barrier and convert it into corpse energy. In other words, the light membrane around the Resentful Soul and its attack were all corpse energy. To the Resentful Soul, the corpse energy was equivalent to a martial artist's essence energy!
With a cold snort, an Earth Rank long sword suddenly appeared in Shen Wanteng's hand. That long sword was purple in color, and it was extremely beautiful!
With a slash of the long sword, a semicircular Yuan energy screen instantly appeared in front of Shen Wanteng. When the arrow hit the barrier, a rhythmic sound was heard. The light curtain was glowing with starlight. None of the arrows could hurt Shen Wanteng.
An arrow flew from Shen Wanteng's side and hit a big tree. The trunk of the big tree burst open. In other words, the power of the Resentful Soul's corpse barrier was terrifying. However, Shen Wanteng's Yuan energy defense was even more terrifying!
Qi Zhuohao and Yang Dingyuan's mouths were wide open in shock. Poison Lady and the other two had terrified expressions on their faces. Shen Wanteng's strength had already exceeded their imagination. The once generation Sect Master of the Thousand Searching Sect was indeed not an undeserved reputation. Back then, Shen Wanteng had only used half of his strength in the battle with the Jade-Eyed Dao Piglet!
"Following the Sect Master this time, I believe we will be able to safely arrive at the Peak Of Myriad Corpses Mountain!"
Qi Zhuohao sighed in his heart. He asked himself if he could kill the Resentful Soul. However, he had to use all of his means to do that. As for Shen Wanteng... He was able to resolve the attack of the Resentful Soul in a casual manner. It shouldn't be difficult for Shen Wanteng to kill that Resentful Soul!
Qi Zhuohao was wrong about this. Shen Wanteng was able to easily block the attack of the high grade Resentful Soul. This was true, but it wasn't easy for Shen Wanteng to kill the high grade Resentful Soul.
There was no other reason. The body of a high grade Resentful Soul wasn't an illusion either. However, their bodies were different from low grade and middle grade Resentful Soul. Ordinary attacks were ineffective against them. They could even directly pass through their air-like bodies. Only flames could burn down high grade Resentful Soul. However... Shen Wanteng was not a fire-attribute martial artist. The power of his Yuan energy void fire... He wondered if he could burn high grade Resentful Soul to death.
Also, the speed of a high grade Resentful Soul was too fast, and was not much weaker than Shen Wanteng. It would not be easy for Shen Wanteng to attack it.
Just as Qi Zhuohao was thinking about it, Shen Wanteng had already slashed at the Resentful Soul with his sword light. The sword light pierced through the Resentful Soul's body and flew into the distance. Sure enough, it didn't cause any damage to the Resentful Soul.
Seeing this, Shen Wanteng shouted out loudly. He unleashed the Swift Wind Flowing Shadow Step with all his strength. His body flashed and appeared in front of the Resentful Soul. Then, he pushed out with his palm. The silver-gray Yuan energy turned into a ball of fire and swept towards the Resentful Soul.
Qi Zhuohao's heart skipped a beat. He knew that Shen Wanteng had used the Void Flame. That ball of silver-gray Yuan energy was actually also a flame because it carried a very high temperature. Even the air was trembling from the heat!
The power of the Void Fire was stronger than ordinary flames, but it was far from being comparable to the True Fire of a fire-attribute martial artist. A trace of fear could be seen in the eyes of the high-grade Resentful Soul. Its body was like a cool breeze that blew away.
"Qianyu, this fellow's speed is very fast. Come and help me!"
A void fire attack was unable to injure the Resentful Soul. Shen Wanteng's face revealed a look of regret. The speed of the Resentful Soul was not much slower than his, and there was no meaning in wasting time like this. Thus, he decisively asked Yao Qianyu to help him.
Yao Qianyu only nodded slightly and took out the transparent longsword and rushed over. Separated by a few dozen feet, she waved the longsword and a cold air swept out. Countless amounts of frost instantly appeared on the Resentful Soul's body as the frost rapidly spread. The Resentful Soul's body was quickly frozen, and it was unable to move at all.
And at this moment, Shen Wanteng's Yuan energy void fire that carried a terrifying temperature swept over. It directly burned the Resentful Soul along with the ice covering the Resentful Soul's entire body into nothingness. This lasted for over ten breaths of time.
From this, it could be seen that although void fire could burn the Resentful Soul, its power was far inferior compared to true fire!
"Ice attribute martial artists are indeed formidable!" Qi Zhuohao sighed in his heart. Shen Wanteng's strength was strong. Yao Qianyu's strength was also not weak. Ice attribute martial artists. In terms of attack and killing ability, they were not weaker than fire and thunder attribute martial artists. In terms of control ability, they were not weaker than wood attribute martial artists. Unfortunately, Qi Zhuohao currently did not even learn an ice attribute martial skill.
It was not the first time Qi Zhuohao saw the Frost Freeze martial skill that Yao Qianyu used. He was very shocked as he used the ice freezing martial skill in Yao Qianyu's hands. Its power was not just a little bit stronger than those genius disciples of the Thousand Searching Sect with the ice attribute.
This was actually very normal. Yao Qianyu's strength was there. Furthermore, Yao Qianyu had the physique of the Blood Frost Body, and her Yuan energy was special!
Not only Qi Zhuohao, but Yang Dingyuan, Poison Lady, and the others were also sighing in their hearts. With Shen Wanteng and his wife working together, their strength was truly indescribably terrifying. With the combination of ice attribute control technique and lightning attribute and wind attribute double elemental fire, even a high grade Resentful Soul could only be burnt alive.
From this, Qi Zhuohao also thought of one thing. A false fire could burn a high level Resentful Soul to death. True fire was even more needless to say. He himself was a fire-attribute martial artist. He could also use Spiritual Force to condense true fire, but if it was his profound fire... What would be the outcome if he were to face the Resentful Soul?
Qi Zhuohao was extremely confident. The power of his profound fire was not something that could be compared with true fire and void fire!
Shen Wanteng and his wife kept their sabers and stood there, their eyes filled with satisfaction. Reality had proven that even a high grade Resentful Soul could be burned to death by the Void Fire. This way, Shen Wanteng could be at ease. After arriving at the Peak Of Myriad Corpses Mountain, they had greater confidence.
However, just as Shen Wanteng and his wife turned around and were about to urge Qi Zhuohao and the others to continue moving forward, red silhouettes drifted out from the thick fog. Everyone's facial expression changed drastically, and their hearts sank to the bottom!
Soon, more than thirty Resentful Soul surrounded Qi Zhuohao and his group. Moreover, these Resentful Soul were all high grade Resentful Soul. Shen Wanteng and his wife had used a lot of effort to deal with a single high grade Resentful Soul, but now...
"Sect Master, what should we do? "Qi Zhuohao shouted anxiously. One or two high grade Resentful Soul was nothing to him. With so many high grade Resentful Soul, it was because Qi Zhuohao was confident that his ability to survive was not bad. At this moment, his face was solemn, and he didn't know what to do.
Shen Wanteng and his wife had already retreated to Qi Zhuohao's side. Their faces were gloomy. With so many high grade Resentful Soul, it would not be easy to deal with them. He and Yao Qianyu could barely fight to the death, but what about Qi Zhuohao and the others?
"Qi Zhuohao, hide behind me and protect yourself. Don't be attacked by the Resentful Soul!" At this point, Shen Wanteng had no choice but to try his best to kill the Resentful Soul. He didn't care about the lives of Poison Lady and the other two.
"Dingyuan, the three of us have our backs against each other, protecting Qi Zhuohao within. This battle is going to be difficult!" Shen Wanteng said to Yang Dingyuan, then vigilantly looked around at the Resentful Soul. Luckily, there weren't any more high level Resentful Soul that rushed over.
"Alright, everything will be arranged by benefactor!" Yang Dingyuan answered seriously. Qi Zhuohao only nodded slightly. He looked at the red Resentful Soul with doubt in his eyes.
Not only Qi Zhuohao, but Shen Wanteng and the others were also very confused. These Resentful Soul seemed to know that they had come here and killed a high grade Resentful Soul. The Resentful Soul seemed to have found out about the death of that Resentful Soul and rushed over. What was going on?
Thinking about it carefully, Qi Zhuohao could only think of one thing. This group of Resentful Soul should be a small group. Moreover, they had a subtle connection with each other. Otherwise, the Resentful Soul would have just died. It was impossible for this group of Resentful Soul to arrive here so quickly.
The high-grade Resentful Soul looked very beautiful, but their eyes were filled with a cold chill. Clearly, Shen Wanteng and his wife had killed the Resentful Soul, and they hated Shen Wanteng, Qi Zhuohao, and the others to the core!
Very quickly, Shen Wanteng and the other two stood in a triangle formation. Qi Zhuohao was very helpless as he protected Qi Zhuohao in the middle. In fact, he didn't need Shen Wanteng and the other two to protect him. But... Without using the Fire God's Fury, he wouldn't be a match for the Resentful Soul.
Once the Fire God's Fury was used, Qi Zhuohao was like a Flame Evil Devil. He couldn't use it in front of Shen Wanteng, otherwise, he would be killed by Shen Wanteng as if he was a devil.
With the protection of Shen Wanteng and the other two, Qi Zhuohao felt a lot more relaxed. Poison Lady and the other two didn't have a shelter. The three of them looked at each other. Soon, a triangular formation was formed to defend. Of course, their hearts were filled with fear, even if the three of them joined forces. At most, they could only deal with one high grade Resentful Soul. Once more high grade Resentful Soul attacked them... They would die without a doubt!
