85: Section 85

Chapter 112: White Bone Demon

"Old Guy Ji An, keep a close eye on that snake demon. He just had a sudden spasm, and the energy inside his body increased significantly."

"I will go deal with that bird."

The White Bone Ghost Mother extended her right hand; within her slender, pale white arm, white bones were faintly visible.

"Yu Emperor, obediently hand over the demon emperor fragment. I don't want to fight you."

"The Ghost Race already has one, yet you are still greedy enough to want the one in my possession. If you have the ability, come and take it."

The White Bone Ghost Mother's gaze was as cold as an ice cellar, and a disdainful smile played on the corners of her lips.

"A consensus has generally formed among everyone: whoever possesses two demon emperor fragments can summon the remaining holders to form an alliance, piece together the map, and head to the Demon Emperors Tomb."

"You and the snake demon have two between you; the Ghost Race, possessing three fragments, will command the races of all realms to go to Ghost Emperor City for the alliance."

"Want to catch me? You aren't qualified yet."

Yu Emperor flapped his golden wings forcefully and lunged toward Xiao Bai, leaving over a dozen golden afterimages behind him. His speed was incredibly fast, giving Xiao Bai no chance to react at all.

"Want to run? It's not that easy."

The White Bone Ghost Mother had long known about Yu Emperor's speed. Since they were of equal Cultivation, it would certainly be very difficult to catch up.

Before coming here, she had already set up a Formation in the surrounding area, precisely because she feared Yu Emperor would escape.

"Nether Prison."

Countless crystal white bones sprang up from the ground, trapping Yu Emperor and Xiao Bai inside. The top was covered by a massive crystal skull, exuding a sense of overwhelming pressure.

"Old Guy Ji An, why aren't you helping me? There is naturally no problem with sharing a fragment with you; when the time comes, you will be a great hero of the Demon Race."

"Then many thanks, Lady Ghost Mother."

Using the Blood Demon Great Art, Ji An covered the perimeter of the cage formed by the crystal skull with a Blood Killing Array, wrapping the inside so tightly that not even a mosquito could fly out.

The blood was very viscous and had an extremely strong suction force; water vapor and mist would adhere to it, giving Xiao Bai absolutely no chance to escape.

This was thanks to the accurate intelligence provided by Mo Ze. He had secretly colluded with the Ghost Race and the Demon Race, wanting to topple Yu Emperor and thereby completely control Yu Country to become the new Yu Emperor, even if it meant becoming a Puppet of the Ghost Race.

In the end, he became an abandoned pawn and met a miserable death.

"I will come to experience Yu Emperor's brilliant moves."

Whoosh!

A crystal skull burrowed into the Formation.

The White Bone Ghost Mother wanted to take down Yu Emperor as quickly as possible and did not want any complications. Following Yu Emperor's sharp roar, tens of thousands of Yu Clan elites had already gathered outside the hall.

"Your Majesty Yu Emperor, this general has come to provide support."

Ji An slightly turned his head, revealing a gaze like a wolf and an eagle.

"A bunch of ants, obediently become nourishment for this Protector."

He waved his hand forcefully, and a large pool of blood appeared beneath the feet of the Yu Clan elites, slowly swallowing them up.

The White Bone Ghost Mother said to Yu Emperor with disdain, "Ten thousand years ago, you were no match for me, and even if your original form is an Advanced Demonic Beast, the Golden-Winged Great Peng, so what?"

"It's a pity; the glory of your ancestors cannot be fully manifested in you."

"Old hag, don't you dare push me too far. Do you think I am afraid of you?"

The White Bone Ghost Mother extended her index finger and shook it: "You are wrong; it is pushing the bird too far."

She shot a killing gaze at Xiao Bai: "Little White Snake, stay obediently on the side and watch how I kill this bird."

"After I kill him, it will be your turn. If you obediently hand over the fragment, I might spare your life."

Xiao Bai feigned calmness; fear could not solve any problems now. It would be better to let them fight until both were heavily injured, so he could have a chance to counter-kill using the golden bowl.

The golden bowl had been fully upgraded by the System, and the number of uses had increased to three times per month. If used properly, it could take out a Ninth-Level Demon King.

However, the two guys in front of him had not yet shown their specific strength. It was said that Yu Emperor was at the Peak of the Ninth-Level Demon King, with half a foot stepped into the level of a First-Level Demon Emperor; he could be considered a pseudo-Demon Emperor.

In terms of Aura, the White Bone Ghost Mother was stronger than him; she might have already stepped into the level of a First-Level Ghost Emperor.

"Lady Ghost Mother, go for it. If you can take out Yu Emperor, I will hand over the demon emperor fragment to save my own life."

"Don't worry about fighting him; I won't run. Besides, I can't run away anyway."

Xiao Bai lightly tapped his finger, and a small mosquito flew toward Yu Emperor's ear, acting as a messenger.

"Father-in-law, actually we are one family. Once we eliminate the Ghost Mother, I will treat you well with filial piety."

"I was just using provocation earlier. Please fight the Ghost Mother without worry; your son-in-law will look for the right moment to launch a sneak attack from behind her."

Yu Emperor's mouth twitched. The current situation was a stalemate, evenly matched with the White Bone Ghost Mother.

Perhaps in the end, it would depend on Xiao Bai, this uncertain variable. Xiao Bai had slept with the First Princess and also married the Third Princess.

This is a double-buff son-in-law, damn it.

"Ghost Mother, let's do it! Do you think I would be afraid of you?"

Xiao Bai quickly hid at the edge, fearing being caught in the energy waves. If necessary, he would decisively take out the golden bowl to use as a Turtle Shell for protection.

After more than an hour of fierce fighting in this not-so-large space, with back-and-forth exchanges, neither side could determine a winner for the time being.

Subsequently, the White Bone Ghost Mother activated the entry into the illusion realm, forcibly dragging Yu Emperor and Xiao Bai into it.

The surroundings were pitch black; only a circle around the Ghost Mother's body remained illuminated.

Yu Emperor was a bit flustered: "Old hag, in order to deal with me, you actually brought out the Ghost Emperor's illusion entry."

"Otherwise what? If you have the ability, you should also go find such a powerful husband as a backer. It's a pity you are a male bird; back then, I don't know what despicable means you used to get the Peacock Demon Queen pregnant."

"It's your own fault for being selfish and alienating everyone; even the son-in-law beside you doesn't want to help you."

"Little White Snake, watch carefully! Today, I will definitely pluck all of Yu Emperor's golden feathers."

Yu Emperor roared: "Golden-Winged Great Peng original form!"

He decisively transformed back into his original form. Golden light instantly illuminated the surrounding darkness; this darkness, which seemed endless, felt as if it had reached the end of the sky.

The environment was incredibly oppressive, with a strong sense of suffocation.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng let out a piercing screech, and countless golden feather arrows shot wildly in all directions. Xiao Bai hurriedly hid in the golden bowl for shelter; with Yu Emperor's Cultivation, he could easily pierce through Xiao Bai's body.

With the enhancement of his original form, the power was even stronger.

"Yu Emperor has gone crazy with killing. I must quickly hide in the Turtle Shell to save my life. I hope the White Bone Demon can take him down, and in the end, she is also half-dead, then I can come out and pick up the ready-made spoils."

The White Bone Ghost Mother decisively transformed into her original form, a white skeleton, which then slowly turned into a crystal color.

There was no longer the mature charm of a woman in her forties; she now looked like a wronged spirit from Hell.

A massive crystal skull blocked the front, intercepting the attacks of the golden feather arrows.

Countless white ghosts inside her body lunged toward the Golden-Winged Great Peng, attempting to trap it.

They fought until the sky went dark in the illusion realm, continuously erupting with massive energy waves. Fortunately, this was an illusion barrier, which seemed to be tailor-made for them to duel.

If this were in Misty Cloud City, it would have long since destroyed an entire city.

The fight lasted for seven days and seven nights before it slowly stopped.

Xiao Bai flicked his tongue inside the golden bowl, sensing the situation outside.

After confirming again and again that there were indeed no signs of fighting outside, Xiao Bai crawled out of the golden bowl.

The golden bowl remained unmoved and undamaged; it was truly a Buddhist treasure.

Yu Emperor had self-destructed and died; golden feathers kept falling from the sky. The White Bone Ghost Mother lay on the ground, on the verge of death, still clutching the demon emperor fragment in her hand.

From this angle, the White Bone Ghost Mother was indeed very charming, her eyes staring straight at Xiao Bai, though her body could not move.

Like a young woman who had long suffered from drought and finally encountered sweet rain, her eyes were filled with longing.

Chapter 113: Nowhere to Run

Watching as the White Bone Ghost Mother dragged Yu Emperor and Xiao Bai into the illusion realm.

Tian Kui and the Demon Race Elder Ji An had no way to intervene, leaving only a palm-sized black hole in mid-air; they tried many ways but could not enter.

Ji An rolled his cunning eyes, his wrinkled old face revealing a sinister expression.

He set his sights on Tian Kui: "I heard you killed Guizuka; you must have some ability. This Protector will come to experience it."

"How did a dignified Demon Race Elder become a lackey for the Ghost Race?"

"Bastard, this Protector and the Ghost Mother have a cooperative relationship, in order to better obtain the fragment in Yu Emperor's hands."

The wrinkles on Ji An's face twitched slightly: "You brat, how dare you be rude to a Senior? This Protector will teach you on the spot how to follow the rules."

"Old Guy, you can try..."

Nine white fox tails appeared behind Tian Kui, shocking Ji An so much that he retreated several steps.

"This... it is actually the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan."

Subsequently, Ji An changed his attitude, his old face showing a brilliant smile that was uglier than crying.

"This old man has been disrespectful; so it is a Fox Immortal."

Ji An did not dare to offend the Heavenly Demon Fox Clan. Without waiting for Tian Kui to continue speaking, he turned into a cloud of blood mist and voluntarily left the area, returning to the Demon Race.

He quickly made the safest decision in his heart: if the Ghost Mother obtained two fragments, there would certainly be a share for him.

If Yu Emperor defeated the Ghost Mother and came out of the illusion realm, Ji An, with his lower Cultivation, would be in great danger; running now was still in time.

Xiao Bai stood beside the golden bowl, not daring to step forward. He stared straight at the dying Ghost Mother, seeing what kind of tricks she wanted to play.

Suddenly, the White Bone Ghost Mother blew a puff of white smoke toward Xiao Bai and cast a flirtatious glance.

"Damn, the White Bone Demon still wants to seduce me."

"Little White Snake, do you think I am beautiful?"

The Ghost Mother pouted her sexy red lips and blew out a small red heart. As the most enchanting female ghost of the Ghost Race, her charm was naturally beyond question.

She lay on her side on the ground, slowly letting down the thin gauze on her body, fully displaying her charm and allure.
