Chapter 2668: Formation Activation_1

The Ghost Emperor, floating in the sky above, looked down at the Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters gradually collapsing into ruins, his expression subtly changing...

He hadn't felt the presence of the Ming Emperor...

He couldn't help but speak out loud, "Did that guy, the Ming Emperor, die in the attack just now??"

Even he would have found it difficult to resist that suddenly emerging power!

Then, he spoke again, "However, it doesn't matter. The real show is just about to start!"

Having said that, he raised his arms, preparing to fully activate the Array...

But at that moment, as if sensing something, he immediately stopped his movements...

Glancing sideways, he saw the Ming Emperor, bathed in blood and on his last breath, coming into his field of vision...

The latter, propping up his heavy body, coughed violently, "Ghost... Ghost Emperor!! Cough cough..."

The Ghost Emperor showed a surprised expression, his tone laced with sarcasm, "Ming Emperor, you are truly in a sorry state, to think that all I asked you to do was to hold off those guys, yet you've suffered such serious injuries!"

It was clear that if the power unleashed earlier had been any stronger, the other would have no doubt died on the spot!

Upon hearing this, the Ming Emperor's eyes blazed with endless fury, "Those two from the Shrek Seven Monsters, the Soul Fusion Skill they used was too powerful, it broke through my defenses."

Otherwise, once he fully absorbed the revenant's power, all those Soul Masters would have only one fate: death!

But the Ghost Emperor had no intention of listening to his explanation, merely snorting coldly and slowly walking towards him...

His aura began to climb steadily...

Seeing his approach, the Ming Emperor's pupils constricted, "Ghost Emperor, what are you trying to do??"

The Ghost Emperor didn't stop, but sincerely replied, "What am I trying to do? Of course, I'm going to devour you, so that I will become even stronger!"

The strength of the Ming Emperor was close to his, but now that he was gravely injured, he was certain of his victory if he made his move!

The Ming Emperor took a few steps back subconsciously, barking angrily, "Ghost Emperor, you... "

Before he could finish, the Ghost Emperor flashed in front of him, reaching out to grab his throat and harshly lifted him...

As suffocation set in, the Ming Emperor's complexion turned an ashen blue, looking like he might breathe his last at any second...

Yet he still managed to squeeze out a few words, "To think... I... would actually die at... your... your hands."

"If you're going to... to make your move... then do it..."

On hearing this, the Ghost Emperor watched him for several long seconds, then suddenly released his grip...

Only then did the Ming Emperor manage to catch his breath, gasping deeply, "You..."

Immediately, the Ghost Emperor interrupted saying, "Don't get the wrong idea. I didn't spare you just because of those few words. It's just that I feel even if I break through my bottleneck by myself, I may not necessarily be a match for those guys!"

The Ming Emperor fell silent...

Truthfully, in his eyes, it was more in line with the Ghost Emperor's character to be unscrupulous in achieving his goals, just as he had acted before!

Yet, he had taken a completely different approach!

It was utterly incomprehensible!

The Ghost Emperor ignored him and looked back towards the battlefield...

"The Evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult must have been dealt with by the people of the major powers by now, so the time has come!"

Having said that, his Soul Power burst forth in an instant, visibly shaking the entire space...

"Boom!!!"

At the four other locations, the formation patterns emitted strong purple glows and started to float towards the sky…

The Evil Soul Masters responsible for guarding them all showed excited and thrilled expressions…

"Hahahaha! The Sect Hierarch has activated the array, it looks like this battle will be a victory for our Holy Spirit Cult!!"

"Exactly, as long as this array is activated, no living creature within its range can possibly survive!!"

"Wait… wait, all… all within range, doesn't that mean we, too, will be…"

"No… no way, how could the Sect Hierarch possibly take action against us, we are also Evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

As if to verify their words, continuous purple light rained down from the heavens above, completely enveloping all Evil Soul Masters…

After forcibly binding them in place, an irresistible force began extracting threads of blood from their bodies, then transporting it away…

In just a few seconds, the ground was littered only with withered corpses, utterly devoid of any vitality…

...

However, it wasn't just the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters!

Anomalies were also continuously appearing above the entire battlefield…

Guo Xiaoxu looked up and frowned, "What… what's that thing in the sky? Why does it give me a feeling of palpitations!"

Liang Xiaoyu also spoke with a grave expression, "Hmm… The entire space is trembling, it seems this is the reason why the Ghost Emperor lured us into battle!!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chong became a little panicked, "What are we waiting for then, even though we don't know what the Ghost Emperor's conspiracy is, we absolutely can't let him succeed!!"

"Immediately order all Soul Masters from every power to leave this place!!"

But, the words spoken by the other powerhouses who had arrived caused a drastic change in their expressions…

The leading powerhouse spoke anxiously, "Three Hall Masters, it's bad, this space has been sealed by an invisible force, we can't escape!!"

"That's right, even when a few of us joined forces, we couldn't break through, it must be the Holy Spirit Cult's doing, next, something beyond our expectations will likely happen!"

"Perhaps they had already prepared everything before this war even started!!"

Amidst their conversation, the already unstable heavens erupted into blinding light once more, shining down onto the Soul Masters below…

After looking at each other, they couldn't help but discuss curiously…

"Eh? Everyone look, what's that strange light?"

"Hey, what could it be? It must be the light of victory shining upon us because we defeated the Holy Spirit Cult!"

"That's right, this time, we are all heroes, the Holy Spirit Cult should have been destroyed long ago!"

"I have a bad feeling, these lights, aside from shining on us, seem to also touch the corpses of those who have lost their lives! It's almost like… it's feeding on them"

"No good, there's something odd about these lights, everyone run!!!"

However, it was a bit too late for these words, even as these illuminated Soul Masters came to realize what was happening, their bodies were utterly unable to move an inch!!

"Hiss~~~"

An intense suction force came upon them, excruciating pain spread throughout their bodies, just like the Evil Soul Masters before them, their blood was forcibly drawn out, and within a mere few seconds, they turned into dried-up corpses…

The Ghost Emperor, standing midair, naturally witnessed all this, and immediately spread his arms, bursting into laughter with his head thrown back, "Hahaha, yes, just like that, whether living or dead, all await the extraction of blood from their bodies, transforming into power to help me break through my bottleneck!!"
