Chapter 96: Skull Knight

  Zhao Duo shook his head and said, "It's not that the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Yin Yang Sword is stronger than the Qinglong Seal, but rather this sword of mine happens to be able to restrain these Skull Guards. The reason why these Skull Guards are so powerful is because the bones between them contain extremely heavy death energy. Coincidentally, my Nine Sons Ghost Mother Yin Yang Sword can absorb souls and capture spirits, so it's naturally able to take in such trivial death energy. In this way, the Nine Sons Ghost Mother Yin Yang Sword can completely cut through the bones on the Skull Guards' bodies."

  Nodding her head, Bai Jing said: "In that case, our safety has an extra guarantee."

  With a big hand grasping the slender waist of Bai Jingjing, Jiu Zi Gu Mu's Yin Yang sword split into nine small swords like flowing light, protecting the two. As Zhao Shuo hugged Bai Jingjing and jumped lightly, the sound of "ding ding dang" came from time to time.

  Anything that stood in front of the two was either minced by the nine small swords or bounced off, allowing them to charge through the ocean of bone beasts like a hot knife through butter.

  After passing through the ocean of bone beasts, the scene in front of them suddenly became bright, and a huge square appeared before the two. Of course, it was impossible to have a square here, but a vast expanse was filled with dense skulls, not even tens of thousands.

  Two figures floated in mid-air, gazing down at the surging tide of skulls below, and a deep, dark hole at its center. Clearly, to leave, they would have to charge into the midst of these skull guards.

  "Damn it, how many skull guards are there?! Even if these guys stood still and let me chop them down, I'm not sure I could finish them off!"

  Hearing Zhao Zhuo's muttering, Bai Jingyan couldn't help but laugh and say: "You're complaining now is useless, it's better to think about how to deal with these skull guards."

  A row of skull guards marched over in unison, their stern and murderous aura making the two people feel like they couldn't breathe.

  "Descend, Thunderclap Technique!"

  Dense lightning bolts fell from the void, crackling and flashing with lightning, shrouded in black fog. However, these crooked skulls that were struck by lightning somehow withstood it and slowly closed in on the two.

  The white蒹葭 on the side was not idle either, and the collected essence pearls flew out one by one, accurately hitting each skull guard's body. With a burst of light, each essence pearl could dissolve a skull guard.

  Zhao Duo's nine sons, the Ghost Mother Yin Yang Sword, flew about in all directions within the Skull Guards, each and every one of the Skull Guards being chopped into shattered bones, the clanging sounds seeming like a melodious tune.

  For a moment, these skull guards were actually suppressed by the two of them. Although it was a bit strenuous, there was no immediate danger for the time being, which made Zhao Zhuo and Bai Jing slightly breathe a sigh of relief.

  Suddenly, the ground shook with a loud rumbling sound. Zhao Xiao looked in the direction of the sound and saw a giant skull knight, several meters tall, slowly emerging from the large hole at the center.

  Bai Jing ran to Zhao Zhuo's side, his expression serious as he said: "Zhao Zhuo, this monster is probably the Skull General that the nameless senior mentioned, I just didn't expect it to be such a strange creature."

  Zhao Duo nodded and said, "It's eerie, I don't know which ancient Dao master this Death Island was transformed from after death. Why are there only these dead objects everywhere? Not even a few precious treasures have been seen."

  "These weapons are enough to move even that nameless senior, how dare you say they're not treasures?"

  Zhao Duo's eyes lit up, and with a wave of his hand, the dozens of Yin-Yuan Xuan-Tie weapons in front of him were withdrawn.

  "You take care of these skeleton guards, I'll go deal with that skeleton knight. Who knows how long it'll be before we have to face more of them. Let's see just how powerful these creatures are first."

  Zhao Zhuo suddenly sprang into action, his massive dragon claw unfolding as he swung it with all his might at the skull knight towering several meters above him.

  That skull knight rode a nameless bony beast, all over black, holding a long spear in his hand, suddenly stabbing out.

  A loud roar, like two giant dragons colliding, Zhao Zhuo only felt a thread of pain in his palm, and at the same time, a strong gust of wind hit him in the face, and he hastily took a step back to avoid the Skull Knight's direct charge.

  He took a look at his palm, and saw only a white dot faintly visible. This skull knight had actually broken Zhao Xiao's divine sense, almost injuring Zhao Xiao himself. From this, it can be seen that the skull knight's strength has at least reached the Return to One stage.

  Bai Jingrui anxiously asked: "Zhao Huo, how are you? Are you injured?"

  Zhao Zhuo shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but this monster is really powerful, its strength is not below that of a first-order cultivator. If there are only one or two, it's okay, but if there are thousands or tens of thousands like these skull guards, then we might as well give up the idea of leaving."

  He shot Zhao Zhuo a glance and said, "Save your jokes for later, let's kill this monster first."

  Zhao Duo burst out laughing and said: "Haha, watch me show off my divine might!"

  The Nine Sons Ghost Mother's Yin Yang Sword instantly transformed into a giant sword, fiercely slashing down at the Skull Knight. This Skull Knight was indeed formidable, as a black smoke pillar burst forth from his head, suspending the treasured sword in mid-air. Although the Nine Sons Ghost Mother's Yin Yang Sword was devouring the death energy, the Skull Knight's body contained an overwhelming amount of death energy, leaving her momentarily at a loss for what to do.

  But if Zhao Zhuo Ruo only had this trick up his sleeve, he wouldn't have been so reckless as to charge into the Divine Abyss.

  "Swallowing the Northern Dark Whale!"

  Under Zhao Zhuo's full exertion, the divine power seemed to be endless. At least with Zhao Zhuo as the center, hundreds of skull guards involuntarily threw themselves into that vortex, and as the vortex rotated, the dead energy on their bodies was gradually worn away, finally turning into dust.

  These skull guards were just caught in the crossfire; North Sea Whale's target was that one Skull Knight.

  The Skull Knight seemed to sense the crisis, clamping his legs tightly around the skeletal beast, and with a fierce thrust of the black long spear in his hand, he sent the Nine Child Ghost Mother's Yin-Yang Sword flying. He then savagely plunged the black long spear into the ground, attempting to fix his body in place.

  However, Zhao Zhuo had long been prepared for this and the Yin-Yang sword of the nine ghost mothers that was flying in the air suddenly landed on the black long spear in my hand.

  Zhao Duo didn't expect to be able to cut off the Skull Knight's arm, he just wanted to shock the Skull Knight's hand and make him drop his long spear. As expected, the Skull Knight's large hand shook, and an instant later, a suction force appeared, causing the Skull Knight to involuntarily fall into the whirlpool.

  Dark smoke billowed, Zhao Zhuo had to urge the power of law to support the continuation of Shentong, almost every second consuming Zhao Zhuo's decades of law power, like flowing water.

  At last, with a loud crash, the skeleton knight shattered into fragments of bone. Zhao Zhuo wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath.

  He pulled out the black long spear stuck in the ground, but as soon as Zhao Zhuo grasped the long spear, he involuntarily shivered. A pure and gloomy aura of death rushed into Zhao Zhuo's body, causing his muscles to shrink and his face to turn dark green as if he had been poisoned.

  Big explosion is imminent, vote sabotage
