The Ancient Zombie Emperor

The Full Moon Magic Well was located outside of Dead City's city walls, in a wasteland that was full of wild grass. At the mouth of the well, strands of rich death aura leaked out, turning into a fog and shrouding the area. The fog was faintly discernible, and there were ghosts in uniform guarding them.

These were all members of the D and He Families!

They had been guarding this place all year round, and each of them had a fiendish look on their faces.

After Xiao Mu and Wang Er rushed over, they carefully concealed their traces and observed the situation. These ghosts were mostly Level 1 to Level 2 Martial Masters. In the outside world, they could be considered to be a small expert.

However, Xiao Mu realized that the souls of these ghosts had been transformed by the aura of death for many years, and had become even more tenacious. Moreover, they all had an iron-blooded aura on them. It was obvious that they had gone through life and death situations and fought their way out from the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood!

His strength was even stronger than his cultivation level.

Wang Er crawled amidst the weeds and said: "These ghosts have the Ding and He Families as their backers, and have even better cultivation resources. Even in the Dead City, there aren't many ghosts that would dare to offend them."

Xiao Mu's face revealed a look of astonishment, he was very curious how he could cultivate using his Soul Essence.

Wang Er explained: "We have the body of the spirit, although we do not have the body of flesh and blood, we cultivate in the mental energy, the Spiritual Power will strengthen, so naturally, our strength will be stronger."

Xiao Mu inhaled a breath of cold air, his face blazing with fire. These ghosts were Spiritual Power s that cultivated in order to strengthen their soul. As for the outside world's martial masters, because their sea of consciousness had yet to open, the Spiritual Power was incomparably weak. If he could obtain this kind of cultivation method for Spiritual Power, it would definitely be beneficial to him.

Most of the ghosts in the Dead City did not have this kind of cultivation method, and only the ghosts from the Ding and He Families, or those who were chosen by the Martial King Spirit Realm would have this kind of cultivation method if they relied on the methods they had in their previous lives to cultivate.

Xiao Mu withdrew, Wan Er was watching by the side, and Wang Er was surveying the place. According to Wang Er's previous observations, these Ding and He Families' ghosts would be handed over every six hours. At that time, there would be a quarter-hour gap.

This period of time was when they were leaving through the Full Moon Magic Well.

After mapping out the terrain and marking it secretly, Xiao Mu and the rest quietly left the place and returned to the Dead City.

However, just as he returned to the Dead City, something bad happened.

Da Da Da …

A group of headless ghosts, holding long spears in their hands, swaggered past on the street. The ghosts on the street were filled with terror as they made way for them. Suddenly, a war horse and Xiao Mu crossed their shoulders and flew past each other.

"Hold on!"

A cold gaze turned over, the one on the horse was Jiang Youying. The aura of living people on him was not concealed at all, it seemed like he was living quite comfortably in Dead City. Jiang Youying turned around, looked at Xiao Mu's back, and said: "Turn around!"

Xiao Mu's body stiffened and stopped in his tracks. Beside him, Wang Er looked like he was complaining incessantly. He turned his head and said to a headless ghost, "Big Brother, we were just..."

"One more word of nonsense. Be careful that your Soul Essence is dispersed!" The headless ghost released an ice-cold figure from its body, and then stared at Xiao Mu's back.

Xiao Mu had no choice but to turn around and grin at Jiang Youying.

"Ye Xiao!" Jiang Youying was shocked, seeing the Nigger Mask, he gritted his teeth and said, "This is a human, catch him!"

When these words were spoken, not only were these headless ghosts shocked, even the nearby ghosts revealed shocked expressions. Their eyes then revealed a greedy look, as if they had seen a delicious blood meal. To ghosts like them, living people were a fatal temptation. They had lived for an unknown amount of time in a soul state, and their flesh and blood were deeply nostalgic.

The first reaction that many ghosts in Dead City had when they met a living person was to possess them!

Xiao Mu's identity was exposed, without wasting any time, he immediately erupted, pulling out his Asura Demon Sword, his killing intent soaring, the purple veins on his sword released a terrifying Spirit Demon Qi, he raised his sword and rushed towards Jiang Youying.

A headless ghost was the first to attack. He threw out the long spear in his hand. The spear shaft trembled and it burst out with the power to pierce through the Golden Crack Stone.

Clang!

Xiao Mu hacked down with his sword, the sword aura panicking, upon touching the spear, sparks flew, cutting the spear into two, following that, the sword aura shot out, killing the headless ghost's intuition, the Spirit Qi dissipated, the Ten-Thousand Corpse Mantra circulated, and it was devoured.

Seeing a living person devouring their own kind, the nearby restless ghosts' bodies trembled, and their faces revealed expressions of shock as they stopped in their tracks.

However, this group of headless ghosts were furious, and they were brimming with killing intent. In all these years, this was the first time Xiao Mu dared to kill their people.

"Kid, no matter what happens today, I will skin you alive!" A headless ghost bellowed

Beneath him, the war horses were whinniing and emitting a chilling cold. Killing intent burst out as headless ghosts rushed over.

Xiao Mu slashed with his sword alone, fearless, as though he was unstoppable. He brandished the azure dragon's sword qi, materializing a azure dragon's sword above the sword and immediately slicing a charging war horse in half. Blood sprinkled into the air, and even that ghost died.

As he strode forward, Xiao Mu was like a tiger entering a pack of wolves. A demonic aura erupted from his body, actually scaring four or five warhorses alive, causing the headless ghost's body to tremble and almost fall.

Immediately after, the Asura Demon Sword slashed over, a sword light flashed, and these headless ghosts were killed.

It was as if they had entered a place devoid of people, causing these ghosts to feel fear. Jiang Youying watched as Ye Xiao charged towards him, step by step.

A stream of sword energy chased him. Blood spurted out as one of his arms was sent flying!

Just as Xiao Mu was about to kill him, a disturbance in the Dead City, a group of ghost riding horses, dressed in standard clothing appeared. There were a lot of them, over a thousand of them, all of them had iron blood Qi congealed, causing the death aura in the Dead City to surge, the gray clouds stirred up.

Xiao Mu picked up Wan Er and fled from this place. Wang Er followed closely behind.

The group of ghosts saw that Xiao Mu had disappeared, gritted their teeth and said, "Injuring our brothers, you will definitely be pulled out from the Dead City!"

Jiang Youying was supported up by a ghost, and said: "Are you alright?"

Although it was a comforting word, the disdain in his eyes was not concealed. In someone else's territory, Jiang Youying did not dare to flare up, and could only shake his head: "That person was an ordinary disciple of our Nanshan Academy, named Ye Xiao."

"We promised you that we would bring you out of Dead City. Then, you should help us kill him."

The leading ghost that wore iron armour and carried a horse-chopping knife grinned: "You aren't going to use us to deal with your enemy, are you? If anything happens, you can just stay out of it."

"Don't worry, even though this Ye Xiao is strong, he is not strong enough." Jiang Youying said, but in his heart, he was stunned. This elusive Ye Xiao, if he really did not have any strong backing, how could he have such strength?
