37: Chapter 36 Blood Qi Ignites the Ghost Domain

But he couldn't be bothered to say anything more.

After everyone had left, Ye Xiu unleashed his Blood Qi, and the blood-colored crescent blade in his hand instantly expanded a thousandfold.

He swept it across the Ghost Domain in a circle.

A harsh sizzling sound rang out; wherever the blood blade passed, the Blood Qi acted like scorching flames, slicing the entire Ghost Domain open.

It carved out a huge circular opening.

Whoosh.

A cold wind blew.

Something was running quickly in the darkness.

Ye Xiu gave a cold laugh. The blood-colored crescent blade in his hand transformed into a bow and arrow. Without wasting any words, he drew the bow, nocked an arrow, and fired at the rapidly running figure.

Swish.

The blood-colored arrow turned into a streak of light, piercing straight through the running figure.

Boom.

Flames erupted everywhere. Upon striking the eerie figure, the blood-colored arrow immediately triggered a chemical reaction, and violent flames instantly engulfed it.

"Ahhh..."

A shrill scream rang out.

It was like a demon from the abyss wailing, which was bone-chilling.

But even so.

Ye Xiu just gave a cold laugh. With a slight step, he instantly appeared before the wailing ghost creature. Ignoring the scorching flames, he reached out, grabbed the ghost creature by the neck, and lifted it up.

The ghost creature burning before him was melting like a candle, looking extremely disgusting.

"You really are disgusting..."

Boom.

Blood Qi erupted.

It directly crushed the ghost creature in his hand.

Looking at the Ghost Domain that hadn't dissipated yet, Ye Xiu was a bit puzzled. Could there still be other ghost creatures?

Just as he was pondering.

A black shadow appeared and rushed toward the opening that had been sliced into the Ghost Domain.

"Trying to leave?"

Ye Xiu snorted coldly, stamped his foot, and instantly chased after it.

"Die!"

Powerful Qi and blood engulfed the black shadow.

Flames burned with a crackling sound, accompanied by the demon's wails, echoing throughout the entire Ghost Domain.

Ye Xiu's eyes were extremely cold; he sensed an eerie power that was currently gradually gathering.

A cold, chilling wind howled.

The Ghost Domain was shaking; the source ghost was about to come out.

Hmph.

"I'd like to see what kind of ghost thing it is."

Ye Xiu did not choose to act immediately. He watched the eerie power gradually gather into a human shape, revealing a sneer of disdain.

The eerie power was not gathering quickly.

Ye Xiu wasn't in a rush either; he crossed his arms over his chest and waited quietly.

A few minutes later.

As the figure gradually took shape.

A hoarse voice rang out from within the Ghost Domain: "Human Race powerhouse, do you really want to fight to the death?"

As the voice faded.

The eerie figure had completely finished forming.

Its skin was deathly pale, its eyes were only whites with no pupils, and beneath a set of tattered clothes was a skeletal, thin body.

Ye Xiu laughed: "Heh... A petty demon, you're not worthy of speaking to me. You really don't know what death is."

As he spoke, his Blood Qi instantly enveloped the entire Ghost Domain.

Sizzle, sizzle...

After being enveloped by the Blood Qi, the Ghost Domain immediately turned into a sea of fire and began to burn entirely, with crackling and sizzling sounds coming one after another.

"You... damn you..."

The withered ghost creature let out an angry roar and rushed toward Ye Xiu, carrying a strong, chilling power.

Its speed was extremely fast.

It seemed that within the Ghost Domain, it could achieve something like instantaneous movement.

Unfortunately, with Ye Xiu's shout of "Tiangang Body Protection", a layer of Protective Aura formed from Blood Qi completely isolated the chilling power brought by the withered ghost creature.

Besides that.

The withered ghost creature was also burned by the scorching Blood Qi.

"Before, I thought this Protective Aura made of Blood Qi wasn't of much use, but I didn't expect it to have such miraculous effects when dealing with you ghost things."

Ye Xiu paced slowly.

He was approaching the retreating withered ghost creature.

"Damn it..."

The withered ghost creature roared and turned to flee.

But how could Ye Xiu's speed allow it to escape? With just three steps, like the ability to shorten distance, he arrived directly in front of it.

He flicked his finger.

The Blood Qi turned into a laser, piercing straight through the ghost creature's forehead.

"Still not dead?"

Ye Xiu was slightly surprised.

The structure of this ghost creature was different from living beings; even after being pierced through the forehead, it didn't suffer the slightest damage.

For this, he had no choice but to reach out and grab it, catching the ghost creature that wanted to escape again in his hand.

"Human, don't go too far..."

The ghost creature was struggling frantically.

But Ye Xiu's palm was like an iron claw, gripping its neck tightly, making it unable to move a single bit. It could only watch as the opponent's tyrannical Blood Qi left one burning mark after another on its body.

Ye Xiu smiled contemptuously.

He unleashed his Blood Qi with full force.

Boom.

The terrifying Blood Qi, upon contacting the withered ghost creature, immediately triggered a chemical reaction, and crackling, scorching flames surged on its body.

Just like burning a candle, it set it directly ablaze.

The ghost body was melting rapidly.

There were no shrill wails; its eyes, which only had whites, were filled with incomparable resentment.

The Ghost Domain was shaking and fading.

When the withered ghost creature was completely burned up by the flames, the Ghost Domain also dissipated completely.

Revealing the original small hill area.

"Handling some small ghosts, and it took you this long?"

Xing Mu muttered from the side, her head looking up at the galaxy without turning even once.

Ye Xiu ignored Xing Mu's snarky comment.

He looked around.

The crowd that had escaped earlier had long since left this dangerous place, leaving only a few acquaintances.

"Is it solved?"

Fatty Wang leaned in and asked nervously.

"Yeah, it's solved."

"Can't you sense the source?"

Not far away, Xing Mu reminded him.

"What?"

Ye Xiu was shocked. He opened his Qi senses fully, extending from the small hill, but within a radius of dozens of miles, he didn't detect a trace of eerie power.

He couldn't help but frown slightly: "Xing Mu, are you sure the source is nearby?"

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Xing Mu couldn't be bothered to say anything more.

She took out an astronomical telescope from who knows where and was currently fiddling with it on the grass.

"Brother Ye, there is a temple on the hillside. The monks there are very strange. Could there be a problem?" Fatty Wang said, hoping this clue could help Ye Xiu.

"A temple?"

Ye Xiu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

The first time he encountered an eerie thing was when Spiritual Qi had just recovered. The little monk who stopped him back then was in the exact same state as the ghost creature.

He glanced at Xing Mu, who was still fiddling with the telescope.

Ye Xiu cautioned her: "Don't run around here; I'm going to deal with the hidden danger."

After saying that, he turned to Fatty Wang and said: "You go back first. Eerie power is hard to predict. If a fight breaks out later, I can hardly guarantee that you won't be caught in the crossfire."

Fatty Wang, who had originally planned to go and take a look, immediately wilted after hearing this: "Alright, Brother Ye. Since you're handling it, I won't go. Let's keep in touch when you're free."

After saying that, he ran down the mountain.

"This damn fatty..."
