2725 Ghost Emperor Yang Yun
Right then, a figure in multicolored armor with a dignified expression and a golden halberd strode over from the east of Mount Baodu.
Ghost Emperor Yu Lei of Mount Taozhi in the east!
On the other side, a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar rode a Spirit Beast over slowly. His gaze was wise as he stared at the ancient bronze lantern in the hands of the Martial Dao Prime Body with deep thoughts.
Ghost Emperor Wen He of Mount Bozhong in the west!
At the same time, a third figure appeared. It was an expert with a dark expression and a fierce and sharp gaze like an eagle.
Ghost Emperor Zi Ren of Mount Luofu in the south!
The last person to appear was from the north.
The man had disheveled hair and unkempt clothes. He walked over shakily with a wine gourd in his hands and raised his head to take a sip of wine from time to time with a dazed gaze.
When the Ghost Emperors present saw this person appear, they did not say anything, clearly in silent acknowledgment of his identity.
If not for that, it would be difficult to associate this man with the North Ghost Emperor!
Ghost Emperor Yang Yun of Mount Luofeng in the north!
The Void Yaksha was secretly alarmed.
The commotion was too great and all five Ghost Emperors appeared!
The Netherworld was not like the Hell World.
The Hell World was shattered and had entered the Dharma Ending Era with no Emperor experts born.
However, the Netherworld had always been presided over by Ghost Emperors!
These five Ghost Emperors were the strongest among all the Ghost Emperors in the Netherworld!
After the five Ghost Emperors descended, the gazes of four of them landed on the Soul Lantern of the Martial Dao Prime Body. At first, there was a hint of surprise and shock in their eyes.
However, before long, greed flashed through the faces of four Ghost Emperors.
Only Ghost Emperor Yang Yun of the north retracted his gaze after a casual glance at the Soul Lantern. He stood at the side and continued drinking.
“It’s the Soul Lantern!”
Ghost Emperor Wen He seemed to be surprised as well. “According to what I know, this Soul Lantern should belong to the Lord of the Netherworld. Why is it in this person’s hands?”
Ghost Emperor Zhou Qi raised his brow slightly. “No matter what, we have to retrieve this Soul Lantern first. How can the Emperor Weapon of the Lord of the Netherworld fall into the hands of outsiders!”
“Exactly.”
Ghost Emperor Yu Lei said as well.
After the four Ghost Emperors said that, they glanced at Ghost Emperor Yang Yun at the side.
The latter was still drinking and did not seem interested in the matter.
Seeing that the four Ghost Emperors were about to attack, the Void Yaksha hurriedly shouted, “Ghost Emperors, there’s a misunderstanding.”
“This is the newly conferred Lord of Hell of the Hell World. We’re merely passing by the Netherworld and we’re not hostile.”
Ghost Emperor Zhou Qi sneered, “Lord of Hell?”
The other three Ghost Emperors clearly did not believe it either.
Ghost Emperor Zi Ren smirked. “It’s fine if you’re lying to others, but you want to bluff your way through in front of us?”
“You’re telling me a human from the medium chiliocosm is the Lord of Hell?”
“Well…”
The Void Yaksha was speechless.
“Attack!”
Ghost Emperor Zhou Qi gave the order.
The four Ghost Emperors attacked one after another, releasing immense soul power that crushed towards the Martial Dao Prime Body.
The Martial Dao Prime Body’s expression was unchanged as he raised the Soul Lantern and blew gently.
The lantern oil in the lantern suddenly splattered and flew towards the four Ghost Emperors with a few golden sparks.
The four Ghost Emperors were clearly wary of the power of the Soul Lantern and dodged one after another.
Their soul powers could not break through the halo of the Soul Lantern either.
The moment they entered the range of the golden halo, they turned into nothingness and was refined and absorbed by the Soul Lantern!
The four Ghost Emperors exchanged glances and released their respective pocket Netherworlds. Ghostly auras filled the worlds and phantoms flickered as they suppressed the Martial Dao Prime Body once more.
If he did not have the Soul Lantern, the Martial Dao Prime Body would not be able to defend against any Ghost Emperor, let alone the combined forces of the four Ghost Emperors.
Right now, under the suppression of the four pocket Netherworlds, the flames of the Soul Lantern flickered and could be extinguished at any moment.
Once the Soul Lantern was extinguished, the Martial Dao Prime Body would lose his final reliance.
However, at that moment, the Soul Lantern sensed the surrounding pressure and seemed to have been stimulated. It suddenly broke free from the hands of the Martial Dao Prime Body and floated in midair.
The word ‘Soul’ in the lantern shone brightly, causing the flames of the Soul Lantern to intensify and spread into an even stronger golden halo!
The spirit consciousness in the Soul Lantern awakened and counterattacked!
The expressions of the four Ghost Emperors changed and their pocket Netherworlds began to sway under the impact of the golden halo of the Soul Lantern.
In reality, the cultivation realm of the Martial Dao Prime Body was limited.
Given his Martial Spirit Fire, igniting the Soul Lantern was not enough for him to fight against the four Ghost Emperors.
However, the Soul Lantern had a huge restraining effect on the ghosts and souls of the Netherworld. That was the reason why the current stalemate was formed.
The Martial Dao Prime Body and the Green Lotus True Body were telepathically connected.
As long as he could hold out a little more, the Green Lotus True Body would awaken from his epiphany after comprehending the key to the Six Paths of Reincarnation!
Right then, Ghost Emperor Zhou Qi looked at Ghost Emperor Yang Yun who was still drinking at the side and said in a deep voice, “Yang Yun, why are you still standing by idly at a time like this?”
“This person comes from the medium chiliocosm. How can he be allowed to behave so audaciously in the Netherworld?!”
Ghost Emperor Yang Yun sighed. “Even the four of you can’t take down the power of the Lord of the Netherworld’s Emperor Weapon. So what if I’m included?”
Ghost Emperor Wen He said, “Brother Yang Yun, we all know your methods. I hope you can lend us a hand!”
Ghost Emperor Yang Yun was silent for a moment before finally raising his head. He looked at the Martial Dao Prime Body who was surrounded by the four Ghost Emperors with a look of pity.
“The Netherworld is indeed not a good place. You shouldn’t have come.”
Ghost Emperor Yang Yun shook his head gently and raised his head to drink a mouthful of strong wine. Thereafter, he spat out a mouthful of wine mist in the direction of the Martial Dao Prime Body!
The wine mist emitted a strong wine fragrance and contained an incomparably powerful power that enveloped the flames of the Soul Lantern.
Under the envelopment of the mist, the Soul Lantern seemed to be unable to defend against it and the flames began to shrink continuously, as did the surrounding golden halo.
The eyes of the four Ghost Emperors lit up as they pressed forward hurriedly, getting closer and closer to the Martial Dao Prime Body!
The Martial Dao Prime Body narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ghost Emperor Yang Yun who was not far away.
Among the five Ghost Emperors, this person had the strongest cultivation and was unfathomable!
He had to get rid of this person in order to escape from the current crisis!
In the blink of an eye, the feet of the Martial Dao Prime Body stomped on the void and released an incomparably domineering power. He charged over and shattered the void, plowing out a gigantic crack!
With just a single step, the Martial Dao Prime Body arrived before Ghost Emperor Yang Yun!
Although he was facing an Emperor expert, the Martial Dao Prime Body at the Grotto-heaven realm still emitted a torrential aura and wanted to trample the Ghost Emperor beneath his feet!
The Martial Dao Prime Body raised his Soul Lantern and burned it towards Ghost Emperor Yang Yun.
