Chapter 180: Chapter 178 The Fall of the Ghost King
ghost king sect.
the shady side of fengdu mountain.
in the southeast territory, there was a pond, perennially extremely cold and dark, filled with countless ghostly entities, known as the soul devouring pool.
the body of the heavenly demon, sect leader of the ghost king sect, was well-suited for cultivation in the soul devouring pool, hence, he designated the surrounding dozens of miles as the sect's forbidden area.
that day.
the bottom of the soul devouring pool twinkled with spiritual light as a dozen figures appeared within the transportation formation.
before the cultivators' appearances were clear, four sect's supreme treasures—the divine fire fan, the light dividing sword, the supreme clarity divine talisman, and the bodhi treasure wheel—were positioned around them, forming an intricate formation to counter any incoming attacks.
a female voice was heard, "this humble one greets the respected ancestors."
powerful divine senses swept through in every direction, confirming the absence of any hidden dangers, before the supreme treasures were put away.
xiao tiezhu laughed, "the poor daoist always guessed that fellow daoist's heart leaned towards the righteous path, how could you conspire with evil demons!"
huang yuniang shook her head, "this humble one cannot say my heart leans towards the righteous path, but i manage to abstain from killing, and haven't spared those duplicitous fellow sect members either."
"amitabha!"
fa ming intoned the buddha's name and said, "benefactor has the heart of a buddha in the body of a demon; if one day there's nowhere for you to go, you may join the ten thousand buddhas temple for quiet cultivation."
huang yuniang pressed her palms together, "i thank the zen master."
xiao tiezhu sighed, "this alliance to destroy the ghost king sect and kill the extreme yin demon lord is indeed making it difficult for you, fellow daoist."

"in the demonic path, there are no sentiments such as the grace of master and disciple; extreme yin only valued my talents, using me as a tool to rule the ghost king sect," said huang yuniang.
"maybe, when my master's lifespan is not sufficient, he could use it to perform the heavenly demon's reincarnation secret technique, borrowing this humble one's body to extend his life by thirty to fifty years!"
daojun xuan xiao, together with the nascent soul elders, activated the sect-defending supreme treasure to bombard and break the earth-level spirit vein of fengdu mountain into pieces.
after the fall of the ghost king sect, many nascent soul elders proclaimed that they had found the means to unlock the sect protection array.
the morale of the righteous allied forces soared!
the heavenly demon sect, the blood god sect, and the heavenly corpse sect were shaken thrice in a single day!
...
the eastern sea.
the news of the ghost king sect's destruction quickly reached the earth fire palace, where yuan qi reported immediately.
"worthy of being called xiao zhadan, no, a nuclear bomb now!"
zhou yi had anticipated trouble for the ghost king sect, but never imagined that a sect of ten thousand years would be destroyed in an instant. he was astounded by the destructive power of the son of destiny.
"now that the ghost king sect is no more, lift the sect's restrictions and allow disciples to come and go freely," he said.
"elder, it is still not peaceful, and the five spirits sect covetously eyes us," replied yuan qi.
"it's rumored that the five spirits sect gained great advantages this time, seizing two spirit veins and becoming the fifth sect of the righteous path overnight," yuan qi said.
"no matter, the five spirits sect is at a life-or-death juncture; they have no spare energy to manage the eastern sea," zhou yi instructed. "since the ghost king sect's primary site is destroyed, many hidden disciples remain, unable to stay in nine continents. they can only sneak into the sects of the eastern sea.
for the next decade, earth fire palace won't accept new disciples, to prevent infiltration by the demonic path!"
after the destruction of the ghost king sect, the remaining three demonic sects would surely seek fierce revenge. if they couldn't take down dan ding sect, were they not capable of dealing with the five spirits sect!?
understanding the rationale, yuan qi asked, "not even accepting newborn children?"
zhou yi nodded, "the ghost path cultivation method is particularly enigmatic and unpredictable. it wouldn't be surprising if they possess secret techniques for body possession and reincarnation, so we must take precautions."
in truth, zhou had no real concern about the remnants of the ghost king sect mixing in; even if they clandestinely entered earth fire palace for cultivation, they wouldn't outlive zhou yi. however, their presence was bound to bring various troubles, like secretly banding together to corrupt fellow disciples or assassinate elders — an array of nuisances that zhou yi preferred to avoid.
"i will heed the elder's decree," responded yuan qi.
