Chapter 627 Its Them

The head of the Lost Land was a Ghost Lord. Having overawed this planet for tens of thousands of years, he could make the planet shake with a stamp of his foot. Considering his high status, he had refrained from going to the battlefield for many years. The reason that he decided to take matters into his own hands this time was that he had been really pissed off by what happened today in the ground battle.

His two trusted guards had been cut into halves right in front of him as if they were vegetables on a chopping board.

The morale of the troops on the ground had been greatly dampened because of this.

Also, seeing that two of his men had been killed and one had been injured due to the jinxed tongue of Elder Xing Feng, the other elders on the back of the Dragon Skeleton had all been disheartened. The head of the Lost Land felt that he had to take action right now. For one thing, he had to boost morale. For another, he needed to break the jinx and buoy up the spirits. Moreover

Moreover, he must nib Li Mu in the bud.

The Wild Broadsword of the Bone Sacred Mountain had defeated the three prized masters under his command with just three strikes.

And the three strikes were all a simple hack to the face.

However, this simple broadsword-using method was actually the hardest to fend off.

This proved that the man using this broadsword-using method was a peerless genius.

The other ghost sects certainly didnt want to see such a genius serving the Bone Sacred Mountain. Even if they later killed the Two Sages of the Bone Sacred Mountain, as long as this peerless genius with such a brilliant broadsword-using method escaped, it meant that the tinder of the Bone Sacred Mountain would survive. Sometime in the future, the tinder would spark another fire. If the Bone Sacred Mountain rose to power again, it would be even trickier to deal with it, wouldnt it?

Therefore, the head of the Lost Land knew he had to dig out the roots when cutting the weeds.

Kaboom!

As the head of the Lost Land raised his hand, Taoist figures of ghost cultivation began to swirl in his palm, and a Yin Broadsword materialized. Next, at the speed of light, it shot at Li Mu who was on the ground.

It seemed to be just a sneak attack, but it actually concealed immense killing intent.

Li Mus eyebrows twitched. The broadsword in his hand paused as he instantly felt the killing intent shooting at him from the sky.

With his current strength as a ghost cultivator, he definitely could not withstand this strike. However, if he activated the primitive natural qi, his identity would be exposed at once. If that happened, his plan to obtain Ghost Cultivation Methods of the Bone Sacred Mountain would have to be aborted earlier than he expected.

At the moment when Li Mu was hesitating, a beam of dim light suddenly zoomed out from the depths of the Bone Sacred Mountain.

Clank!

With the strange sound of the collision of metal, the Yin Broadsword of the head of the Lost Land was hit and shattered.

Huh? The head of the Lost Land turned his head and looked in the direction of the Bone Sacred Mountain.

Two figures with surging strong auras had risen to the air from the Bone Sacred Mountain like a couple of phoenixes.

Terrifying energy quickly spread out from the two figures as if raging ocean waves. Layers of Ghost Qi began to surge between heaven and earth. The ghost cultivators of various sects on the battlefield were immediately sent flying by the waves of energy, whereas, the Ghost Generals of the Bone Sacred Mountain remained intact.

It seemed that in an instant, two deities had descended to rule the world.

The cultivators of the major ghost sects that were trying to besiege the Bone Sacred Mountain all felt a sense of oppression that was beyond description.

Its the Two Sages of the Bone Sacred Mountain!

The Two Sages have come out.

Has the decisive moment finally arrived?

Are they the genius couple who have risen to the top of the Ghost Rally Star over four years?

In the distance, the cultivators of the various ghost sects in an alliance turned pale and quickly beat a retreat.

Although the battle against the Bone Sacred Mountain had been on for weeks, this was the first time that the mysterious couple showed up in front of all the parties. In the previous battle, the Two Sages only occasionally cast a strike from the depths of the Bone Sacred Mountain. By throwing attacks across the field, they had killed several Ghost Lords from a distance. With that, they had left a deep impression on the cultivators of the various ghost sects and had also planted the seed of fear in their hearts.

Now, the mysterious Two Sages finally showed up.

For a moment, all eyes were riveted on the couple in the sky.

The head of the Lost Land was no exception.

The Two Sages of the Bone Sacred Mountain, are you finally here? The corners of the mouth behind the mask of the head of the Lost Land arched into a faint smile.

As the head of the Lost Land in the Ghost Lord Realm, how could you have the face to launch a sneak attack on a disciple of my Bone Sacred Mountain who was fighting on the ground? This has fully shown the demeanor of a Ghost Lord. A clear female voice sounded in the sky. It was the woman sage of the Bone Sacred Mountain who made that remark.

Thick Ghost Qi had wrapped her in, making it hard for people to see her face clearly.

However, as soon as Li Mu heard her voice, his body abruptly shuddered.

A glint of enormous joy flashed across Li Mus eyes.

He was excited.

So excited that the hand holding the broadsword began to tremble.

Because he was too familiar with this womans voice.

That was the voice that Li Mu had replayed in his mind many times.

Because of the owner of this voice, Li Mu had wanted to kick himself countless times.

But now, he finally heard the voice again.

She did have come to the Ghost Rally Star. She had not really died yet!

Now that the woman sage was her, the man sage must be

Li Mu turned to look at the other sage.

With a little help from his Third Eye, Li Mu finally had a clear view of the two faces behind the thick Ghost Qi. Immediately, familiar images in his memory rushed back to him. At the moment, that young face with a simple and honest look easily touched Li Mus soul.

This is great!

You havent really died yet.

Its so great.

Glad to see both of you here.

A hint of a smile climbed onto Li Mus face.

He suddenly felt much more relieved.

Up in the sky, in the face of the ridicule of the woman sage of the Bone Sacred Mountain, the head of the Lost Land did not show any expression because he was still wearing the black mask. However, with undisguised contempt in his tone, he said, I can kill whoever I want to kill. Its not up to you to decide. Having huddled in the Bone Sacred Mountain for so many days, now youve finally got the nerve to show your faces in public? It seems that you have prepared yourselves to completely disappear from this world.

The Dragon Skeleton flapped its wings.

In the sky on the other side, clusters of Ghost Qi started to ripple.

Ghost cultivators who had hidden in the dark appeared one after another.

You juniors have caught a break by stumbling on a secret cultivation legacy. But instead of being grateful and reining yourselves in, youve actually started to compete with us for resources. You two are courting death. A figure with a flood dragons head marched out of the ripples of Ghost Qi. He was dressed in a loose white robe and his skin was all snow-white, as though he had applied flour to his whole body. He stood in the void and stared at the Two Sages with his blood-colored eyes. Then, he sneered with thinly veiled killing intent.

Its Xue Yan, Head of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, Zhen Ye, the Ghost General elder of the Bone Sacred Mountain, suddenly appeared beside Li Mu and said in a low voice.

He was in pretty bad shape. Clearly, he had been injured in the previous battle and lost an arm. Even so, his fighting spirit was still high.

Li Mu nodded.

The head of the Heavenly Ghost Sect was also a Ghost Lord.

Are you all right? Li Mu was now more concerned about Zhen Yes injury.

Zhen Ye nodded and said, My arm can grow back after a few years of cultivation However, buddy, youre the one you should worry about now. Youve been targeted by Ghost Lords who are also the heads of ghost sects. They think you are a threat and may even try to attack you again But, anyway, you are really something. Ive also seen the three strikes you made just now. If I were you, I would at most have some odds against that Xing Man. As for the other two, I dont think I am a match for them.

In fact, Li Mus previous performance had been caught by many eyes and had amazed many people.

I happened to have made a breakthrough lately, Li Mu said.

Zhen Ye smiled and said, I see. You have your own secrets. But dont worry. I wont probe. Now that Two Sages have come out to help you, as long as you survive this battle, you will definitely earn their favor and get more opportunities. Maybe they will immediately accept you as their direct disciple.

Upon hearing those words, Li Mu instantly had a better vibe about this elder of the Bone Sacred Mountain.

He was a ghost who knew how to toe the line.

At this time, another giant figure appeared in the sky. It was a huge Ox wrapped in green flames. His sharp horns were as large as two red hills. He opened his mouth and roared, making heaven and earth tremble. Countless ghost cultivators from the three major sects covered their ears, dissolved into Ghost Qi, and dissipated, even though they were on his side.

The cruelty and bloodthirstiness of this ox were definitely the strongest Li Mu had ever encountered since he came to the Ghost Rally Star.

He is Niu Ben, Head of the Holy Ghost Sect, said Zhen Ye.

The forces that had initiated this siege against the Bone Sacred Mountain were the three ancient ghost sects, namely the Lost Land, the Holy Ghost Sect, and the Heavenly Ghost Sect.

The strongest cultivators of the three ghost sects had finally all shown up.

If we continue the fight, the casualties will increase but the result of the battle wont. This is utterly pointless. Havent you two claimed that you care deeply about your disciples? remarked Niu Ben, Head of the Holy Ghost Sect. His voice was so deafening that it reverberated between heaven and earth for quite a while. Then, he added, Lets decide who is the winner with a duel between ourselves. The loser shall forsake his or her cultivation as punishment, while the winner will rule the Bone Sacred Mountain. What do you say?

Im in, said Xue Yan, Head of the Heavenly Ghost Sect, with a cold smile.

The head of the Lost Land also nodded in agreement and gave a blood-curdling laugh.

The three major ghost sects had three Ghost Lords, whereas, the Bone Sacred Mountain only had two.

In terms of numbers, the three major ghost sects had an absolute advantage.

Obviously, they had agreed to make such a proposal beforehand so as to set up the Two Sages.

The woman sage of the Bone Sacred Mountain directly said, Sure.

Step by step, she walked to the center of the battlefield from the air, showing no trace of fear at all.

Seeing this, the other ghost cultivators of the Bone Sacred Mountain all broke out in a cold sweat, and their hearts had jumped to their throats.

The battle between the heads in the Ghost Lord realm was no longer what ordinary Ghost Lords or Ghost Generals could participate in.

Which one of you will fight me first?

Surging with a powerful aura, the woman sage turned to look at the heads of the three ghost sects.

Grrr, you humble junior, Ill trample you into mincemeat. Niu Ben, Head of the Holy Ghost Sect, roared angrily. He stomped on the ground and charged forward with wild momentum.

His entire body was burning with green flames. His hooves stepped on the void, making heaven and earth begin to shake. In his path, a deadly streak of blazing green flames appeared. His scarlet, mountain-like horns released a horror-inspiring destructive force. It seemed that the void was about to collapse under the pressure. The striking impact that was powerful enough to topple mountains and overturn seas swept toward the woman sage. If this strike hit the target, the entire Bone Sacred Mountain would probably be reduced to ashes.

Li Mu furrowed his brows.

The strength of the head in the Ghost Lord Realm was indeed extremely formidable.

Would she be able to take this blow?

Under the gaze of countless people, the black waves of Ghost Qi around the woman sage suddenly started to rotate, which soon turned into a huge black vortex.

Then, from the vortex, a slender white hand stretched out and neatly grabbed the ox by the scarlet horns as he pelted toward her headfirst.

In that instant, the whole world seemed to have stopped moving.

The tens of thousands of years you spent on cultivation seemed a total waste of time. Because all you can do is still dash around madly. The womans voice was still calm. But a hint of frightening killing intent was lurking behind her serene appearance.

In the next moment, something terrible happened.
