26: Thousand Ghost Valley

Swoosh!!!

A brilliant flash of golden light flashed across the sky above the heavenly cloud mountain sect..

The golden flash of light was actually a small golden boat, in this boat the fatty Wang yuan sat down leisurely as he ate fruits..

Xiao Chen sat next to him and cultivated in the lotus position..

The golden boat was a treasure from Wang yuans parents back on the main continent, what shocked xiao Chen was that it's speed was comparable to the sky sword used by the heavenly passage realm elder.

They had chosen a high risk mission that would I've them many points, the heavenly cloud sect dealt with many evil, demonic and ghost sects so they were feared by all..

Even so the sect didn't send their elders themselves, instead they used this as a chance to train their disciples..

This not only gave those evil sects a chance to survive, the sect didn't take revenge for the fallen disciples if they had failed the mission, after all they were warned on the mission paper.

Wang yuan and xiao Chen were currently heading towards the thousand ghosts valley, it was ruled by a small faction of evil ghost cultivators, apparently they had been implicating mortals in their cruel Magic's, even souls could be pulled out and used to refine ghostly treasures..

Evils sects like these were everywhere, the weaker ones were left to the sect disciples to take care of.

"Brother Chen we will reach the evil ghost valley soon, they aren't too strong either" Wang yuan said as he held the mission paper, the hideout of the evil faction was on the back of the mission paper..

"Ghost cultivators, interesting" xiao Chen states up above the sky in curiosity, he was currently wondering if there were actually other type of cultivators like Buddhists and even demons..

Slowly but surely his knowledge of this world was expanding due to Wang yuan, it was like this fatty knew almost everything..

What can you expect from a descendant of a large and prominent clan?

....

Somewhere a few hundreds of miles away from xiao Chen and Wang yuan, in an eerie looking valley..

A hideous looking old man sat down on a stone throne, a ghastly purple ghost floated beside him, the ghost seemed to be locked inside a lamp as it lit up the area in purple flames..

"My lord, it seems like the heavenly cloud sect has sent more of its disciples here" a lackey in a black hood said, a huge scar was seen across his face, he even seemed lifeless and pale..

"What, they dare to come again even after we killed so many disciples?" Another lackey said, as evil cultivators death wasn't something they feared, after all they lived close to death almost everyday, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they liked being so close to death..

"Hehe so what about it?, let them come, they are all nourishments to our cultivation and treasures Afterall, they are all outer disciples, just make sure they don't send any core disciples" the hideous man on the stone throne said in a deep and commanding voice..

His hollow and dark eyes seemed to lit up with a purple flame, the whole valley was like a land of the dead as endless screams of ghosts pierced the sky..

"Set up the devouring soul array, make sure to keep their bodies in tact, these heavenly cloud disciples are quite useful" he said coldly..

"My lord, what if this time the heavenly cloud sect really becomes enraged?" One of them said, afterall they had killed many disciples, it was best to leave this place or else, once a core disciple or even an elder cane it was over for them..

"Do you want me to use your soul and body as nourishments instead?" The hideous man glanced at the lackey, causing him to shiver as he struggled to reply..

"No my lord, we will set up the array quickly, you there being out the spirit stones" he hurriedly apologized before beginning to order around the lackeys around him.

...

"Brother chen we are here" Wang yuan tapped on xiao Chen's shoulder as he hopped off the golden boat, xiao Chen also followed by..

"It seems they know we are here?" Xiao chen gazes at the huge valley which had suddenly become surrounded by a profound array, a huge blood red flag flew in the void as endless ghosts streamed out of it..

"Fatty, do you have any way to take care of this array formation?" Xiao chen asked, even though Wang yuan was a little slow he was actually very smart and knew a lot.

Wang yuan didn't care about xiao Chen calling him fatty instead he happily said "brother chen this simple array is easy to break, if brother chen can continuously attack it I can find out the weak spot of the array" Wang yuan said..

"Ok then" xiao Chen turned into a flash of light before appearing above the valley, staring at the huge formation surrounding it..

Swoosh!!

The golden dragon ball flew out accompanied by the roar of a dragon, a fire dragon flew out as it roared towards the heavens, slamming heavily towards the array..

Boom!!

A loud explosion rang out, even so the formation array only shook slightly before stabilizing itself..

"Amazing" Wang yuan said as he gazed at the dragon ball, even with his knowledge he had never seen something like it.

"Could brother chen also have an extraordinary background?" He thought deeply, he always found xiao Chen to be very calm and mysterious..

Swoosh!!

Wang yuan formed a hand seal as a diagram flew out as it encompassed the sky, floating over the formation array..

"This is a soul devouring array?" Wang yuan was shocked, arrays were very hard to be made and required astronomical resources, souls devouring arrays like these were said to be the most ruthless..

...

"Hmm only two this time,tch what a waste of spirit stones" the hideous and devilish old man sitting on the stone throne said in a cold tone, he had expected a lot more disciples..

"Even so these two have very strong powers, they are both geniuses, pity they met me" he laughed maniacally as he gripped his hair..

"Hmm?" His eyes lit up as he caugh sigh of xiao Chen who was attacking the formation array with the dragon ball..

"Not only a formation diagram but also a mysterious treasure, haha it seems we are lucky this time" he said coldly, greed flooding throughout his eyes..
