Putting aside the toxicity of this source of plague, the smell alone is enough to make anyone sick. It smells like rotten fish and shrimp, and just one whiff goes straight to the top of your head.
Breaking out of the poisonous fog, Sun Wukong swung his staff at Bone King.
This startled Ainz Ooal Gown. He stood up from his throne and began chanting a spell rapidly.
Several bone shields blocked the Bone King's path, then the ground shattered, and countless skeletal hands immobilized Sun Wukong in place.
Enraged, Sun Wukong broke free of his restraints with a little effort.
"Hmph, you think you can get away with this little trick? Die!"
Faced with a life-or-death crisis, Ainz Ooal Gown was terrified and immediately ordered his skeleton soldiers to go and die, blocking Sun Wukong's advance.
Ainz Ooal Gown's strength is quite impressive to have become a member of the Demon King's army, but unfortunately, he is too arrogant.
If a mage appears before a warrior, it's practically certain death.
"Is that all you've got? You might as well just die!"
Sun Wukong wielded his golden cudgel and, amidst a vast army, took the head of the general.
Boom!
The Bone King was smashed to pieces. Before he died, he regretted not hiding and casting spells from behind.
With the death of Ainz Ooal Gown, the undead army he summoned also vanished. The dark clouds above the canyon disappeared, and a ray of the setting sun shone through the clouds.
"Let's go to the castle of the next Demon King's army officer."
Hao Yun found the carriage he had hidden earlier and slowly left with Little King Kong and Sun Wukong.
Ten days later, in the wilderness outside Slime Town, Little King Kong set up the teleportation array.
"Ye Zi, we're leaving."
Hao Yun looked at the leaves outside the formation, a hint of apology appearing on his face.
Will you come back to see me?
Ye Zi bit her lip, her eyes reddened, and tears were about to fall.
"Probably not."
Hao Yun's tone was low, and he seemed hesitant to look at Ye Zi.
Have a safe trip, goodbye.
Ye Zi took a step back, suppressing the pain in her heart, and waved goodbye to the people in the formation.
Three days ago, Hao Yun and his two companions collected all the materials and returned to Slime Town. Hao Yun then confronted Ye Zi about the truth.
Upon learning the truth, Ye Zi did not stop them from leaving; instead, she helped them set up a teleportation array.
"Actually, you don't need to be so sad. I have already recorded this world. After I go back, I will be able to connect to this world."
Little King Kong suddenly interjected, his expression carrying a hint of cynicism.
"Really!"
"Yes, after we go back, I will hand over the management of the world to Hao Yun. He can come back whenever he wants."
After hearing what Xiao Jingang said, Hao Yun couldn't help but smile wryly. You're just making trouble for me.
Seeing Ye Zi's expectant gaze, Hao Yun could only nod to indicate that he would come back.
"Yezi, we have to go back now. I'll come visit you when I have time."
The time machine smiled and waved goodbye to the leaves.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here."
The sadness in Ye Zi's heart disappeared, and she smiled as she stepped aside.
The teleportation array was activated, and multicolored light poured into the Demon Heart at its center. Soon, the Demon Heart shattered, and powerful energy burst through the sky, opening a spacetime tunnel.
Little King Kong activated his power, instantly leaving this world, and then returned to the cosmic terminal station with a few others.
Upon arriving at the Time Rift, Little King Kong's expression changed drastically, and he shouted angrily.
"Time machine! What have you been doing while I was away?"
The time-space manager was currently emitting black smoke, looking like it could explode at any moment.
“This has absolutely nothing to do with me. I did nothing.”
The time machine immediately took a stand and kept giving Hao Yun meaningful glances, hoping that he could testify on its behalf.
"Forget it, since the management rights are going to be transferred anyway, let's just leave this mess to someone else to handle."
After saying that, Little King Kong looked at Hao Yun with a wicked smile on his face, and with a wave of his hand, a beam of light shone on Hao Yun.
With the blockade gone, Hao Yun, who was experiencing his own strength, was caught off guard and felt as if his brain was about to explode, with various laws and the workings of the world constantly appearing in his mind.
"Little King Kong! You son of a bitch, you ripped me off..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hao Yun was pulled away by a suction force and disappeared into the Time Rift.
In the space where the void was located, there was now another person, and that person was Hao Yun.
The transfer of global will left Hao Yun's brain in a state of malfunction.
"The speed is really slow, but it's still worth it to be able to find a fragment of the Heavenly Dao."
With a wave of his hand, Xu directly stripped Hao Yun of his control over the Heavenly Dao.
Coming back to his senses, Hao Yun felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if he were drunk.
"I feel so awful!"
Xu laughed heartily and said to Hao Yun below.
"Not bad. If I hadn't reacted quickly and teleported you back in time, you would already be... *bang*!"
Such a vivid description sent a chill down Hao Yun's spine.
"Really? I just felt a little uncomfortable."
Xu sneered and leaned back in his huge chair, yawning.
"That's the Way of Heaven, something even sages can't control. How about I let you try again?"
Hao Yun quickly shook his head. Although the Heavenly Dao had just bestowed its blessing upon him, allowing him to comprehend many fundamental laws, he would refuse to do it again.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Hao Yun thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"Since everything is alright, let's continue collecting worlds."
Before Hao Yun could refuse, Xu waved his hand and threw Hao Yun into the space-time tunnel.
Chapter 223 A Chinese Ghost Story 2
Inside the time tunnel, Hao Yun couldn't help but raise his middle finger, cursing the inhumanity in his heart.
Constantly traversing time and space had long since exhausted Hao Yun. Experiencing two worlds in a row without giving him any rest was like being a vampire, constantly exploiting his employee.
A gap appeared in the time-space tunnel, and Hao Yun was thrown out.
With a flash of white light, Hao used his escape technique to float in the air and began to examine the world he had just traveled through.
[Current World: A Chinese Ghost Story (2)]
A Chinese Ghost Story! Could it be a sequel to the world I experienced before?
That shouldn't be the case. If it's the same world, then the Void should have already pulled this world back to the main world.
Never mind, let's go to Lanruo Temple first. If it's the same world, then Yan Chixia must recognize me.
Having arrived in this normal world without the suppression of the Heavenly Dao, Hao Yun's full power was finally unleashed.
The Eight-Nine Arcane Arts have now been fully transformed, and Hao Yun's strength has successfully dropped to the early stage of the Golden Immortal realm.
Hao Yun's original cultivation level as a Great Luo Golden Immortal was too unstable. After changing his cultivation method, his strength dropped drastically. However, this also had its advantages, namely, Hao Yun's foundation became extremely solid.
Having arrived in this less dangerous world, Hao Yun no longer cared much about the decline in his strength.
Expanding his divine sense, Hao Yun began searching for inhabited villages and towns.
With just a fleeting glance, Hao Yun's expression changed, and an inexplicable anger rose within him.
In a town a hundred miles away, the people were actually exchanging children to eat and killing people for their flesh!
As his divine sense continued to expand, Hao Yun's face flickered between light and shadow. After a long while, Hao Yun finally exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"What a pathetic world!"
With a sigh, Hao felt a pang of compassion. This world, lacking the governance of the Heavenly Dao, had suffered the collapse of the Underworld, allowing evil spirits to roam freely among humans, while demons also wreaked havoc on the world.
Hao Yun used his divine sense to explore thousands of miles, but only found a few thousand living people.
Hovering in the air, Hao Yun did not choose to head to Lanruo Temple, but instead went to the nearest gathering place of demons.
"Brother, it's getting harder and harder to find fresh blood food these days. It's been several days, and we've only found this one old thing!"
In a dilapidated earth god temple, two blue-faced, fanged demons were gathered together discussing how to eat the elderly man in front of them.
"We'll split it in half, do you want the upper body or the lower body?"
A horned demon licked the corner of its mouth.
Another demon grinned maliciously, "Anyway, let's do it."
A soft cough came from outside the door, and Hao Yun slowly walked into the earth god temple.
Looking at the mountain of bones piled up in the earth god temple, and the soaring resentment, Hao Yun took a deep breath.
How do you want to die?
The two evil spirits dropped the old man they were holding and focused their attention on Hao Yun.
"Brother, I'll take this one. It has smooth skin and tender flesh; it must be delicious!"
"No, you go eat that, leave this for me."
