Chapter 189 Killing the Corpse King
Surrounded by the ghost fog, the Space Corpse King could clearly sense hundreds of ghost soldiers shuttling through the ghost fog, constantly harvesting the wandering souls of zombies.

The soul-catching rope can easily cross hundreds of meters. In front of the chain, it only takes less than a second for an ordinary zombie to be stripped of its wandering soul and turned into a pile of scattered bones.

Even the extraordinary zombies in the early or middle stages of Qi training were simply unable to fight against the large-scale ghost soldiers. They were suppressed in an instant by the soul-catching ropes and dragged into the depths of the thick ghost fog.

In this chaotic massacre of zombies, only the Corpse King in the Foundation Establishment Stage had the ability to resist. However, the thick ghost fog seemed to contain a mysterious formation. If the Corpse King in the Foundation Establishment Stage rushed into it, he would be trapped by the ever-changing ghost fog and would not be able to touch those soul-stealing evil soldiers at all.

In the depths of the ghost fog that the Space Corpse King could not see, Lu Yan controlled the soul flag in his hand, and hundreds of wandering souls were sent into the soul flag every second.

In the small world inside the Soul Banner, the Giant Spirit God and the Guardian God are responsible for sending the wandering souls into the small world for sacrifice and refinement.

The original soul flag refining speed was not fast. The reason why Lu Yan could only condense 800 wandering souls after slaughtering 100,000 zombies was because of the limitation of the refining speed.

But after many ghosts and guardian gods completed the transformation of the ghost and god computers, everything became different.

Lu Yan loosened his authority and allowed the giant spirit god and the guardian god to assist in the ritual. One after another, the souls of evil ghosts took shape rapidly and were sent to the Blood God.

The Blood God, who had reached the peak of foundation building, had his long blood-red hair flying. The hair, flashing with psychic codes, turned into sharp chisels, carving psychic codes on the bodies of these evil ghosts, completing their transformation into ghost soldiers.

These transformed ghost soldiers will immediately turn around and rush out of the Soul Banner, starting to harvest zombie souls on a large scale, providing a steady supply of materials for the Soul Banner.

Although Lu Yan was only sending ghost soldiers to kill zombies, for some reason the Space Corpse King standing in the center of the city felt a trace of fear.

The boundless ghost fog was like a chaotic beast that constantly devoured living beings. If the ghost fog was allowed to continue devouring, it would bring disaster that he could not bear.

The dark ghost fog flowed through the streets of the ruins like a long cold river.

The figure of the Space Corpse King was looming in the mist, and his decayed body exuded a twisted aura of oppression. The silver marks of space circulated around his body, tearing cracks into reality.

"die!"

A large space crack appeared in front of the ghost soldiers, trying to completely tear apart these ghosts that harvested zombies.

The ghost soldiers were like fish swimming in the dark night, shuttling back and forth under the protection of the ghost fog.

Whenever a crack in space passed, they hid under the cover of broken walls or escaped into the earth a hundred meters deep with their illusory bodies. The twisted vortex in the corpse king's empty eye sockets jumped, tearing the void again and again, but could only grab a little bit of the remaining Yin Qi.

The Space Corpse King did not know that during the long pursuit, the Giant Spirit God had already understood the Space Corpse King's attack methods. Before the ghost fog covered the entire city, the Giant Spirit God had integrated the pre-compiled dodge program into all the ghost soldiers.

Every movement of the Space Corpse King and every spatial fluctuation circulating around his body were seen through by hundreds of ghost soldiers hiding in the ghost fog, who deduced the attack methods in advance in order to avoid them.

If it was the demon version, the strong man in the Netherworld who mastered the avenue of space would be aware of the giant spirit's small movements the moment these ghost soldiers dodged, and would change his attack method.

But in the apocalyptic version, he is just a golden elixir corpse king with spatial abilities.

Such strength allowed him to run rampant in the apocalypse, and he could hardly find any natural enemies, let alone any fighting experience.

No matter how strong he was or how close his wisdom was to that of humans, the limitations of his natural lack of the two souls of heaven and earth and the gap in his experience in fighting meant that he was simply unable to understand the reasons behind it.

The broken high-rise buildings collapsed under the space turbulence of the Corpse King, and the silver space fragments flickered like mirrors among the ruins.

They either hid underground or in the walls, letting the force of space tear apart only the scattered ghost mists. A strange silver light flowed between the decayed finger bones, but they could never catch those smoke-like and foggy figures.

The ghost fog became thicker and thicker, as if mocking the controller of the space. The ghost soldiers wandered in it, taking advantage of the city's wreckage to harvest countless zombies and wandering souls, while playing a game of hide-and-seek with the powerful corpse king.

Such a battle lasted for half a day. Even though the giant spirit god had made advance predictions, the powerful attack of the Space Corpse King still defeated hundreds of ghost soldiers.

However, at this moment the Space Corpse King suddenly discovered that the Yin soldiers that he had defeated actually reappeared in the city, and their cultivation was even much higher than before, from the middle stage of Qi training to the late stage of Qi training.

This is of course due to the credit of the Soul Banner. The ghost soldiers have long been bound to the Soul Banner, and their souls and auras are preserved in the Soul Banner.

Unless one uses powerful magical powers to completely destroy the souls of the ghost soldiers, they can be easily reborn as long as they are provided with sufficient soul power.

Lu Yan drove the ghost soldiers to slaughter the entire ruined city, and the ones that were most lacking were wandering souls.

There are hundreds of thousands of wandering souls. Even the combined sacrifices of the Giant Spirit God and the Guardian God cannot consume such a huge supply. The excess wandering souls can only be transformed into soul power to reshape the soul body and enhance the cultivation of the ghost soldiers.

By fighting to support fighting, not only did the number of Yin soldiers increase, but their cultivation also showed explosive growth. Most of the Yin soldiers had already reached the late stage of Qi training.

When the spiritual link was triggered, it was discovered that there were more than 400,000 zombies in the ruins of the entire city, including three zombie kings in the foundation-building stage.

But in just half a day, only half of the 400,000 zombies were left, and even a foundation-building zombie king died. This was because the zombies that followed began to flee in all directions after being killed crazily, and scattered throughout the city caused a lot of trouble for the ghost soldiers. In addition, the interference of the space zombie king slowed down the killing speed a lot.

If not, this half day would be enough to massacre the entire ruined city.

This situation finally made the Space Corpse King feel frightened.

He no longer chased the ghost soldiers hiding in the ghost fog, but began to take the initiative to go deep into the ghost fog to search for Lu Yan's trace.

The Space Corpse King forced his way into the ghost fog. Those ghost soldiers in the late stage of Qi training couldn't even interfere. They could only watch as the Corpse King rushed into the ruins of a building.

Here, the Space Corpse King finally discovered Lu Yan's breath.

Under the cover of the ghost fog, he continued to refine a large number of wandering souls, and new ghost soldiers strode out from the soul flags.

The Space Corpse King has forgotten the purpose of chasing Lu Yan. At this moment, he just wants to kill Lu Yan and eradicate the fear brought to him by this ant in front of him.

The rotten right hand opened, and countless spatial marks poured down like a rainstorm, interweaving into a terrifying repressive force.

Lu Yan was trapped inside, the decayed death energy and the twisted space turbulence swept over, as if to crush him into powder. The twisted vortex in the empty eye sockets of the corpse king surged, and the pressure of death and space intertwined surged like a tide, and the entire ruins trembled under its power.

However, at this critical moment of life and death, a strange smile appeared on Lu Yan's lips.

In an instant, three brilliant divine lights lit up from the depths of the surrounding ghost fog, like sharp swords cutting through the eternal night, tearing apart the haze of death.

Three ghost gods came from the sky, their figures were looming, controlling the vast amount of ghost fog to gather and take shape.

A thousand Yin soldiers emerged from nothingness, and weaved into a mysterious formation under the night sky with the eerie Yin energy. The thousand Yin soldiers were the nodes of the formation, and the Nine Nether Formation was in turmoil again.

The formation combining dark wind and nether fire swept across heaven and earth, turning the entire ruined city into a furnace, intending to kill the Space Corpse King within it.

At this moment, the Space Corpse King finally sensed the fatal threat and quickly gave up the idea of ​​suppressing Lu Yan. His body became ethereal and was about to disappear into the space.

But how could Lu Yan let him do as he wished?

He used himself as bait to set up a killing array in order to prevent the Space Corpse King from sensing the threat in advance and escaping.

If they cannot trap it, the Space Corpse King will try to escape and even Yuanying Zhenjun may not be able to stop him. This is Lu Yan's only chance.

"town!"

With a loud shout, the Xuanpin Gate suddenly opened in the void. During the half-day cultivation, the purple portal had recovered to its height of two meters.

The source of all paths and the spatial force of the Corpse King collided violently. An ancient breath flowed from the deep portal, as if leading to the source of the world. All spatial rules became chaotic at this moment.

The silver space fragments were suppressed one by one and turned into nothingness. The space rules within a radius of two hundred meters were banned. The arrogant pressure of the Corpse King began to waver for the first time.

The next second, the netherworld fire and dark wind transformed into a flaming tornado that shot up into the sky and engulfed the corpse king.

The huge fire tornado tore apart the extraordinary power of the Space Corpse King. The space marks on the surface of his body continued to disintegrate in the formation, like a sharp blade cutting the body of the Corpse King. The dry shell collapsed inch by inch under the terrifying force.

The rules of space are suppressed, the body is trapped in the formation, and the demise of the Space Corpse King is only a matter of time.

And in this chaotic formation, thousands of soul-catching ropes passed through the tornado formed by the underworld fire and dark wind, and embedded themselves into the soul of the Space Corpse King.

Thousands of ghost soldiers worked together to forcibly separate the powerful soul in the early stage of Jindan from his body.

At the moment when the soul of the Space Corpse King left his body, his rotten corpse turned into eerie white bones and was completely swallowed by the Netherfire Storm.

The Nine Nether Formation slowly dissipated, and thousands of soul-catching ropes trapped the Space Corpse King's soul into a giant ball.

Lu Yan walked forward and raised the soul flag in his right hand.

There is no doubt that the Space Corpse King is definitely the strongest being Lu Yan has ever encountered.

Even though he had fallen from the demon version of the Netherworld to the early Golden Core stage, his domineering spatial ability still had the strength to crush those of the same level. If Lu Yan did not have the Xuanpin Gate to suppress all the laws of the world, he might not have been able to kill the Space Corpse King.

"Such a powerful divine soul should be sacrificed and refined into the main soul to help my soul flag become a magic weapon!"
