Chapter 105: Ghost Patroller, I will tear you to shreds!

The Iron-Winged Eagle’s sharp claws tore through Ying Ni’s side.

A vivid spray of blood blossomed in mid-air!

The Iron-Winged Eagle’s claws gouged out a large chunk of flesh from Ying Ni’s waist. Fortunately, she had activated a Vajra Talisman in her moment of desperation, or else the claws would have severed her torso.

Ying Ni fell to the ground, casting a reluctant glance at Wu Sui in mid-air. At this moment, Wu Sui had already gathered the two Jade Essence Grass into his arms.

After a moment of hesitation, Ying Ni turned and fled.

With her injuries and the rupture in her alliance with Wu Sui, and with the Iron-Winged Eagle and the bronze corpse closing in, staying any longer would be pointless. It could even cost her life.

Ying Ni chose a direction opposite to the Ghost Patroller’s and vanished into the dense forest.

The Ghost Patroller stored the ghostly spirit in his ghost flag and turned to escape.

As he fled, the Ghost Patroller glanced back at Wu Sui, who was surrounded by the bronze corpse and the Iron-Winged Eagle, and sneered coldly.

Fight on! Fight to the death! Only to find the Jade Essence Grass had already withered and lost their spiritual essence.

The thought of the eventual victor among the three discovering that the Jade Essence Grass had withered, and the furious scene that would ensue, eased the Ghost Patroller’s resentment over his stolen treasure a bit.

While escaping, the Ghost Patroller suddenly felt a sharp chill, sensing a life-threatening crisis.

Before he could react, a cold flash passed through his vision, piercing through his skull from behind.

The Ghost Patroller’s eyes widened in shock as he fell dead to the ground.

Song Wen, emerging from the forest with a faint smile on his face, appeared satisfied with his ambush.

Indeed, ambushing from the shadows was the strongest attack.

Song Wen removed the Ghost Patroller’s ghost bag and storage bag, then inserted his hand into the corpse’s chest to devour its essence and soul. A burst of fire ignited, burning the Ghost Patroller’s body into ashes.

The entire process was smooth and swift, taking just a few breaths to turn the Ghost Patroller’s body into ashes.

Song Wen used his escape technique and turned to leave.

As he fled, he made sure to probe into the Ghost Patroller’s storage bag with his spiritual sense. He found a jade box inside, which contained three walnut-sized yellow-green spirit fruits.

It was indeed the Heavenly Spirit Fruit!

Song Wen thought to himself, as expected.

Having witnessed the Ghost Patroller’s escape technique, Song Wen had guessed that the Ghost Patroller’s speed was extraordinary and that he likely relied on his speed to obtain various spirit herbs.

Song Wen’s guess proved accurate; the Ghost Patroller’s storage bag indeed contained three Heavenly Spirit Fruits.

After Wu Sui had struck Ying Ni away and seized the Jade Essence Grass, he saw the bronze corpse closing in within less than ten feet.

For the bronze corpse, a distance of ten feet was already within its attack range.

Wu Sui could almost feel the terrifyingly intense corpse energy emanating from the bronze corpse.

In a desperate moment, Wu Sui slapped the corpse bag at his waist that he had not used before.

A seven-foot-tall, immensely malevolent corpse puppet was released.

This was a corpse puppet made from the body of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and it could even possibly be the body of a Body Refining cultivator.

Though the puppet’s aura was only at the peak of Qi Refining, it exhibited an astonishing presence, far surpassing an ordinary Qi Refining peak cultivator.

Like the bronze corpse, this was a pseudo-Ninth Stage corpse puppet. It had a formidable corpse body but lacked the true Ninth Stage corpse energy and malevolent aura.

“Roar!”

As soon as the corpse puppet appeared, it opened its blood-red mouth, revealing sharp, elongated fangs, and let out a skyward roar.

“Bang!”

The corpse puppet collided with the bronze corpse.

The impact was like two ancient beasts crashing into each other, producing a deep, thunderous sound.

Two Powerful Monsters Entangled, Falling Towards the Ground.

The two powerful, flesh-and-blood monsters grappled with each other, falling towards the ground.

Wu Sui had just dealt with the threat of the bronze corpse when the Iron-Winged Eagle’s claws arrived.

Wu Sui hurriedly manipulated his chains, which clanged loudly in the air, quickly forming a protective shell around him.

He intended to use the chains to block the Iron-Winged Eagle’s attack.

At that moment, a powerful figure leaped into the air.

It was Qiu Li arriving on the scene.

Her body was surging with blood energy, and behind her, a ten-meter-tall boar phantom had formed. This was an apparition that appeared after reaching a certain level in body refinement techniques.

Qiu Li charged like a gigantic, ravenous wild boar descending from the mountain, unstoppable.

Muscles bulged beneath Qiu Li’s skin as immense power concentrated in her hand.

With a clenched fist, she threw a punch.

“Boom!”

The punch landed squarely on the Iron-Winged Eagle’s claw.

The force of the punch and the claw clashed with explosive power.

The immense recoil from the impact sent Qiu Li plummeting from the air.

Her fingers burst open, and blood splattered everywhere.

The Iron-Winged Eagle was also halted abruptly by the mountain-crushing punch, its iron-like claws trembling slightly, clearly wounded.

Qiu Li crashed to the ground, creating a two-meter-wide pit, with dirt flying everywhere.

Yet, she seemed unaffected, quickly climbing out of the pit and walking to where Wu Sui had just landed.

“Give me one of the Jade Essence Grass!”

Qiu Li’s eyes were sharp and commanding, leaving no room for argument.

She had seen clearly that Wu Sui had taken both Jade Essence Grass into his possession.

For Wu Sui, who had acquired the treasures, it was not so easy to hand them over, even though he had previously agreed to share the Jade Essence Grass.

Wu Sui said, “Sister Qiu, we are facing a major threat right now. Shouldn’t we deal with the enemies first and then divide the treasures?”

Qiu Li remained unmoved, sneering, “Don’t think that I didn’t see you attacking Ying Ni just now. I am not a fool like Ying Ni, who has nothing but a chest and no brains.”

“Give me one Jade Essence Grass now, and I will hold off the Iron-Winged Eagle while you handle the bronze corpse. If you don’t agree…”

Qiu Li’s aura grew more overwhelming, her blood energy surging wildly, with her threat unmistakable.

A trace of barely perceptible killing intent flashed in Wu Sui’s eyes, but the situation was pressing, and despite his unwillingness, he had no choice but to compromise.

Having already provoked both the bronze corpse and the Iron-Winged Eagle, facing Qiu Li as well left him with little chance of survival.

“Alright!”

With that, he pulled a Jade Essence Grass from his belongings, ready to hand it to Qiu Li.

However, the next moment, Wu Sui was shocked by the Jade Essence Grass in his hand.

The Jade Essence Grass, which should have been blood-red, now had black veins spreading throughout it, and these veins were continuing to spread. The potent medicinal properties had been almost entirely destroyed by the Yin energy injected by the Ghost Patroller.

“What’s going on!”

Wu Sui’s face turned extremely grim, filled with disbelief.

He quickly examined the other Jade Essence Grass, finding the same situation.

Realizing what had happened, Wu Sui’s expression twisted with rage.

“Ghost Patroller, I will tear you to shreds!” Wu Sui gritted his teeth and said.

The Jade Essence Grass he had painstakingly obtained were now worthless, fueling Wu Sui’s frustration even more.

Qiu Li, seeing the two Jade Essence Grass in Wu Sui’s hand had lost their potency, showed a brief moment of shock and disappointment before turning away.
