Chapter 57

On the beach beyond the easternmost rock reef of the seaside square, this was a place Ye Feng believed no one would come to, so he carried Gu Nian and ran all the way here.

Carrying a person and running at full speed, Ye Feng was a bit out of breath, but the four ghost slaves who were closely pursuing him still maintained their zombie-like appearance, with no change in expression.

Ye Feng was pondering in his heart that these four people, whom the spatial law called extremely evil, were clearly invited by Hao Jian and the others to deal with him. However, their previous attacks and intentions were directed at Gu Nian, which made Ye Feng somewhat puzzled.

Moreover, how to deal with these four strong enemies was a problem. If it weren't for Gu Nian, he could have easily hidden in the spatial realm even if he couldn't defeat them. But if he were to abandon Gu Nian, his character would never allow him to do so.

Furthermore, these four people gave Ye Feng a very strange feeling. He instinctively sensed that they were not normal humans, without needing the law to prompt him.

Whether to fight or continue running, Ye Feng had little time to consider, as the four ghost slaves were already pouncing at him again.

In a panic, Ye Feng had no time to think more. This place was remote and deserted, so he could fight without restraint. Although the four ghost slaves gave him a great sense of pressure, it was not enough to make him feel fear. Ye Feng believed that with his current strength, he could definitely fight them.

Immediately, Ye Feng threw Gu Nian forcefully towards the shallow sea, landing her more than ten meters away in the shallow water. With the water to cushion her, he believed she would not be hurt.

Next, Ye Feng immediately used soul points to activate the invisibility spell.

When the ghost wolf in the Liu family's old house in Xia Hui District saw this scene through his ghost sense, he was also startled. At this moment, he could already determine that Ye Feng was definitely a cultivator, and his cultivation was definitely not low. Only cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage or above had the ability to instantly disappear like this.

Moreover, what made the ghost wolf even more uneasy was that the invisibility spell of ordinary cultivators could not escape his ghost sense. But after this boy named Ye Feng suddenly disappeared, he could not sense any of his aura with his ghost sense. This was enough to prove that the invisibility spell of this boy was extraordinary, powerful enough to shield even ghost sense and divine sense.

Indeed, the ghost wolf's feeling was not wrong. The invisibility spell left by the Celestial Immortal Tianyuan was far beyond what a mere ghost cultivator could sense.

If the ghost wolf couldn't sense him, the four ghost slaves certainly couldn't either. However, unlike the ghost wolf, the ghost slaves had no emotions. Their only purpose was to follow the ghost wolf's instructions, to lure Ye Feng away and capture Gu Nian.

So when Ye Feng suddenly disappeared, the four ghost slaves directly rushed towards Gu Nian in the shallow sea.

After discovering that the invisibility spell was effective, Ye Feng no longer hesitated. He released his inner energy, infused it throughout his body, and rushed at one of the ghost slaves at the fastest speed, hitting the back of the ghost slave with a punch.

Then, an incredibly bizarre scene occurred.

After being hit by Ye Feng's punch infused with pure inner energy, the ghost slave's ghost sense was instantly shattered, and the ghost energy dissipated. The entire body suddenly exploded, turning into a pool of yellow water.

After being hit, the ghost wolf in the Liu family's old house also had a mouthful of ghost energy that couldn't be caught up, causing him to cough violently.

The ghost slaves were essentially extensions of the ghost wolf. When a ghost slave was thoroughly destroyed, the ghost wolf would naturally be injured to some extent.

Ye Feng's successful hit boosted his confidence. At this critical moment, he didn't have time to consider why this strange phenomenon was happening. He accelerated and punched another ghost slave.

This time, Ye Feng missed. The ghost slave, with enhanced ghost sense control by the ghost wolf, dodged his fatal blow.

However, what surprised the ghost wolf was that after missing his first punch, Ye Feng did not continue to tangle with that ghost slave but directly rushed to the next one, delivering another punch.

Similarly, this ghost slave also dodged.

But the continuous enhancement of ghost sense control for two ghost slaves in such a short time also made the ghost wolf a bit out of breath.

Remote control of ghost sense, especially in a life-and-death struggle with a cultivator, was extremely draining for the ghost wolf. If not for his sufficient cultivation, these two hits would have made him spit blood.

So when Ye Feng's last punch hit the fourth ghost slave, the ghost wolf, who needed to catch his breath, couldn't make this ghost slave dodge. It was hit and turned into a pool of yellow water.

At this moment, Ye Feng had already thrown the terrified and bewildered Gu Nian in the shallow sea to another side, more than ten meters away, increasing the distance between her and the remaining two ghost slaves, and giving himself more time and space.

This was the real reason why Ye Feng did not tangle with the ghost slaves earlier.

The ghost slaves had no subjective consciousness. As long as the ghost wolf did not change his instructions, their only goal was to capture Gu Nian. So the remaining two ghost slaves did not hesitate to change direction and continued to rush towards Gu Nian.

All of this, described in detail, actually happened in a split second. With Ye Feng's experience, being able to kill two ghost slaves and protect Gu Nian from being captured was already an extremely difficult feat.

Of course, this was also thanks to the invisibility spell that could shield ghost sense.

The ghost slaves were fast, but Ye Feng was faster. With only two ghost slaves left, Ye Feng's pressure was greatly reduced, and his confidence further increased. His inner energy circulated faster, and the Star Cloud Step was performed more smoothly. With a forward leap, he had already surpassed the leading ghost slave, then turned around and punched the ghost slave's chest.

However, this time, due to the excessive loss of inner energy, he failed to shatter the ghost slave's ghost sense. If the ghost sense was not shattered, it meant that the ghost slave could still be controlled by the ghost wolf. So, although the ghost wolf in Xia Hui District could not use his ghost sense to detect Ye Feng's whereabouts, he could still make the fastest counterattack when the ghost slave was hit by Ye Feng. For the ghost wolf, this opportunity was fleeting and must be seized.

So when Ye Feng punched the ghost slave's chest, the ghost wolf quickly counterattacked. He used his ghost sense to merge the ghost slave's ghost energy with its life soul, spitting it out from his mouth. Even if Ye Feng used a spell to hide his body, this ghost energy, containing death and yin poison, could penetrate any gap. Once it touched, it would instantly invade the seven meridians and eight vessels and the five organs and six viscera. Unless Ye Feng's strength was at the mid-stage of the Golden Core, he would inevitably die within half an hour, with blood flowing from his seven orifices.

Ghost energy was actually one of the true life treasures of all ghost cultivators. Once ghost energy entered the body, it was equivalent to the ghost cultivator controlling the life soul of a cultivator with lower strength.

Indeed, the ghost wolf sensed through his ghost sense that Ye Feng had definitely been hit, being sprayed by the ghost slave's ghost energy. He clearly heard Ye Feng's cry of pain as the ghost slave exploded into yellow water.

Ye Feng was indeed hit. Compared to the experienced ghost wolf, he was still somewhat inexperienced. More importantly, he had never fought any ghost cultivators before. Being able to persist for so long and successfully kill three ghost slaves was already a remarkable achievement.

After being hit, Ye Feng felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, his body cold, accompanied by a strong feeling of nausea. His chest and airway felt as if they were suddenly blocked, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. If it weren't for the robustness of his body after physical training, he would have already fallen to the ground.

At the same time, due to this sudden change, Gu Nian was finally caught by the last ghost slave. Terrified, Gu Nian screamed and called out Ye Feng's name instinctively.

On the other side, the ghost wolf in the Liu family's old house also smiled slightly. The last ghost slave successfully captured the extremely rare yin female, achieving his main goal. This scene also meant that the young cultivator named Ye Feng had definitely been hit by his trick, otherwise, he wouldn't have watched the woman be taken away.

However, before the ghost wolf could be happy for long, a scene that made his mood plummet occurred.

Ye Feng suddenly appeared in front of the last ghost slave, who had already run to the edge of the rock reef. The ghost wolf watched helplessly as Ye Feng snatched the yin female into his arms, then punched the ghost slave, sending it flying into the air and turning it into a pool of yellow water.

In just a short while, the four ghost slaves were destroyed, and this also caused the ghost wolf's ghost sense to be counterattacked. Another mouthful of ghost energy couldn't be caught up, and he fell from the cushion to the ground.

If Liu Tianlong and Hao Jian saw this embarrassing scene, they would wonder how they viewed this omnipotent master in their hearts.

After being damaged twice, the ghost wolf regained his composure. He realized that he had finally encountered a powerful opponent in this world. Although they had not met face to face, just through ghost sense controlling the ghost slaves, he was injured, while the other side was unscathed, even with a woman as a burden.

Although his injuries were not serious, it would take him three to five days to recover.

This young cultivator named Ye Feng was indeed not simple. He could instantly counter his trick, which, in the secret realm, only cultivators at the mid-stage of the Golden Core or above could do.

Was this young cultivator named Ye Feng already so powerful? Was he really just a wandering cultivator of this world?

The ghost wolf decided to quickly find a way to bring Liu Tianlong's son, Liu Yong, to his side, using Liu Yong's yin body to break through his cultivation and truly transform into a human. Then, he would personally meet this Ye Feng to see what kind of high-level person he was...
