Chapter 957: Just One Line Short
ocodilian Ghost King. This Crocodilian Ghost King was noticeably more powerful than most of the other ghost kings present. The two cultivators unleashed their attacks without holding back whatsoever.O...With a dull thud, the Kūyuan Ghost King's legs, thicker than any normal man's, buckled under the immense pressure and he knelt in the raging inferno. His eyes, though fierce, held more despair as he stubbornly supported his head beneath the seven-tiered stupa that threatened to crush him.
The Cave Ape Ghost King was filled with endless remorse. If he had known that the silver-haired cultivator in Lingxiao Palace was so powerful, he would never have dared to provoke him.
>However, it was a pity that the Ku Yuan Ghost King, after continuously killing several famous human cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, became increasingly arrogant and no longer looked down upon ordinary human cultivators. What the Ku Yuan Ghost King never dreamed of was that he would be crushed to such an extent by this Yuan Ying early-stage human cultivator. Trapped in a sea of fire, with a heavy tower pressing down on him. In such a desperate situation, there was no chance of survival!
Puf! The Cave Ape Demon King spat out a large amount of black and green blood, raising a bloody barrier to block the Brahma Inferno once again. At this time, his body was covered with burn scars and ulcers, looking terrible to behold.
At that moment, a streak of emerald light shot down from the sky. Lu Xia Tian felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on him.
Startled, he let out a cry of pity. With one more push, he could have killed this demon king right here. But now, facing a new and powerful enemy, he couldn't afford to worry about the demon king anymore. Even before they arrived, that faint green glow had reached him.
Lu Xia Tian let out a clear shout, not daring to be the slightest bit careless. Seven pagoda lights surged into the sky, striking towards the emerald light. The seven-tiered floating tower that had just suppressed the Kua Yuan Ghost King was once again deployed.
A dull, almost muffled boom echoed as two breaths, utterly opposed in nature, collided. The impact sent shockwaves rippling outwards, churning the air into a tempestuous vortex. The ground was whipped into a frenzy of dust and debris, countless spirit trees corrupted by ghostly energies uprooted or snapped in half, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
At this time, Chen Hunyuan and Lady Hua Ying were rushing towards Lu Xia Tian's direction. Chen Hunyuan was anxious like a burning fire, his pace was quite fast. It turned out that several people had fled to the direction of Wangyue City one after another, and they met Zhao Tuitian who arrived. Zhao Tuitian was a Yuan Ying late-stage cultivator from Qingdan Palace. Because in the foundation building period, even the golden core period, he liked to add a matter-of-fact idiom when speaking, he was jokingly called Zhao Dangran by his peers (thanks to book friend Zhuge Wuhou1 for providing the pseudonym, but the name Zhao Dangran seems inappropriate as a real name. I thought of a compromise. As for the other pseudonym, there are already arrangements. It is estimated that it will take many chapters before it comes out.)
Of course, Zhao was also Zhao Tuitian. He had a bold and unrestrained nature, and he enjoyed drinking a bit too much. He didn't mind this kind of nickname at all. As a result, many people knew about the figure in Qingdan Palace known as "Zhao Du Ran," but fewer knew his real name.
It turned out that Qingdangu had also learned about the situation here spiraling out of control, so they sent Zhao Daren, a powerful cultivator, to help. Meanwhile, Wangyue City also launched a full-scale attack against the nearby ghosts, tying down their Nascent Soul elder monsters and preventing them from acting rashly.
The fleeing Chen He Nian and his companions were fortunate to encounter Zhao Dang, who was hurrying towards them at full speed. The moment they met, they immediately turned back to find Lu Xiaotian, as with a powerful cultivator present, their hearts were filled with confidence.
Who knew that the Ghost Clan still sent out a master at the late stage of Ghost King, Lingquan. To Chen He Nian, Hua Yingfu, Mingya Zhenren and others, this Kui Yuan Ghost King was already like a monstrous flood beast. Coupled with this late-stage Ghost King master, if the Ghost Clan people arrived first, Chen He Nian and the others couldn't even imagine Lu Xiaolin's situation.

Zhao, of course, had already taken the lead and rushed there. Whether he fell behind Lingquan or arrived before her, at this point Chen He Nian and the others were in a state of panic and helplessness. They could only increase their speed to reach the rescue as quickly as possible.
The green handprint vanished into thin air the moment it clashed with the seventh-level pagoda. A ghost clan member, with exposed fangs, bald head, normal human height, but four ears, let out a soft "huh." He hadn't expected this human to have blocked his attack.
At this time, Lu Xiaoteng's heart was also extremely distressed. The opponent's casual palm strike used the Seven-tier Pagoda to block it, and he was almost blinded by the shock. The Seven-tier Pagoda was almost his strongest attack, but it barely blocked the opponent's blow. Of course, Lu Xiaoteng and Ku Yuan Ghost King had fought for so long that their mana had been consumed most of it. If it were during their peak period, they would have easily taken on this strike from Lingquan Ghost King.

However, the Ghost King's later-stage power still gave Lu Xiaitian quite a shock. Counting it this way, this was his first time truly facing a powerful master in the Ghost King's later stage. Even when facing the Xuan Yan Ghost King, he only ran away desperately and didn't dare to confront the Xuan Yan Ghost King head-on.
“Lingquan, take my palm!” At this moment, a figure of moderate size but with a wild aura emerged. He wore a green gourd at his waist, smelled faintly of alcohol, and had streaks of reddish fire in his hair. With a single palm strike, a fiery serpent surged forth, roaring towards the Ghost King Lingquan. The scorching heat burned away the ghostly mist surrounding them. As soon as the fire snake appeared, the space around seemed to tremble with the intensity of the flames.
Even with the Brahma Luo Divine Fire within him, Lu Xiaottian couldn't help but change his expression. This fire-type cultivator's strength was far beyond his own. With a single palm strike, there was an indistinct movement of celestial phenomena. This wasn't just a matter of his magical power being purer and more abundant than Lu Xiaottian's.

He had already encountered a cave ape whose strength was close to that of a Ghost King, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to eliminate such a cave ape with his own abilities. However, he feared that a cultivator in the late Yuan Ying period or a powerful being in the later stages of the Ghost King, would likely still pose a challenge.
"Lu Daoist friend, if you still have the strength, naturally Zhao would like to join forces with you to slay the ghosts."
Zhao, of course, shouted loudly. In his heart, he was also astonished by Lu Xiaoteng to the extreme. Lingquan Ghost King's strength was slightly better than his. Just now, he had personally seen Lu Xiaoteng take a blow from Lingquan Ghost King. It was said that this Lu Xiaoteng had only been cultivating for over ten years.
Lu Xiaottian's Nascent Soul ceremony, because Ji Qian Shui went to Lingxiao Palace in person, he stayed in Wangyue City, naturally couldn't go. Moreover, Lu Xiaottian was just a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator, and Ji Qian Shui's presence was already a great honor.

Had Zhao not known Lu Xiaottian well, he would have almost thought that this silver-haired young man who looked quite young was a monster who had lived for several hundred years.

Originally, he received the news that the Ghost Clan's battle with Hua Yingfu and others on Qingniu Mountain was very likely a trap. So, he came personally to try to save several Yuan Ying cultivators from Wan Shouzong and Lingxiao Palace. But now, looking at their situation, they didn't need his help at all.
If he doesn't go on this trip, the Lingquan Ghost King probably won't come personally. Looking at the miserable state of Ku Yuan Ghost King, he will most likely be killed by Lu Xia Tian. Zhao certainly knows Ku Yuan Ghost King. He has killed several human cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage. His strength is extraordinary among those at the same level. His soul is especially powerful; even for other Nascent Soul stage cultivators, he is extremely difficult to deal with.
The might of the Grotto Ape Demon King was not limited to the Moon Viewing Cultivation Realm; even cultivators from other realms such as Starry Sky and Heaven's Summit, at the same level as him, were well aware of his power. Anyone below the Nascent Soul stage who encountered this Grotto Ape Demon King would have to be wary. As for those in the early Nascent Soul stage, they could only expect to be slaughtered. If they possessed extraordinary escape skills, perhaps they might save their lives.
