Chapter 1875: The Mad Blade Ghost Venerable

"It's too quiet here. I'm afraid this is no good place. Ye Yuan, be careful." The surrounding silence made Gu Tianque uneasy.

Ye Yuan nodded and said, "The yin energy here is extremely heavy. I'm afraid there are many foul yin creatures lurking about."

In truth, Ye Yuan was not worried.

Wuchen had told him that this place was called the Asura Ghost Domain, a land where the Celestial Forest Heavenly Venerable raised ghosts.

Here, many powerful ghost path experts were kept, possibly even beings at the Heavenly Venerable level.

But with Wuchen around, Ye Yuan had no concerns.

Nearly a month had passed since they left the Slaughtering Heaven Sword Array.

Along the way, they had seen many corpses, but the three of them remained unharmed.

All of this, naturally, was thanks to Ye Yuan.

It was impossible for Gu Tianque not to have some thoughts about the Starry War Banner.

But the Ye Yuan of now was no longer a Divine Lord realm martial artist who could be bullied at will.

His combat power was now close to the Ninth Heaven of True God!

Even if he had any ulterior motives, Gu Tianque could only keep them to himself.

The three of them gradually ventured deeper into the Asura Ghost Domain. Suddenly, the sound of fierce fighting came from ahead, and they instinctively grew alert.

"Yang Yidao, deal with these ghost creatures first, or no one will get the Colorful Rainbow Stone!" Ji Kang roared.

Yang Yidao, bursting with World Force, was locked in a fierce battle with a peak sixth-order ghost creature.

These ghost creatures were all extremely troublesome; almost every one of them knew the Hundred Ghost Path Runes and possessed extraordinary strength!

Ji Kang, fighting several ghost creatures alone, was under immense pressure.

The others, besieged by a group of ghost creatures, had also suffered heavy losses.

"You damned humans, how dare you covet the Colorful Rainbow Stone! You deserve to die!" one of the ghost path experts roared.

The number of ghost path experts was too great, and the human side was clearly at a disadvantage.

Hearing their conversation, a gleam flashed in Gu Tianque's eyes.

"Colorful Rainbow Stone! It's actually the Colorful Rainbow Stone!"

Ye Yuan asked in confusion, "Senior, what is the Colorful Rainbow Stone?"

Gu Tianque looked at Ye Yuan in surprise and said, "You don't know about the Colorful Rainbow Stone?"

In his view, given Ye Yuan's status, how could he not know about the Colorful Rainbow Stone.

Ye Yuan was startled, realizing he had slipped up.

The reason Gu Tianque was so polite to him was out of fear of his identity.

He had blurted out without thinking about that, and it might have aroused Gu Tianque's suspicion.

"Oh, I've heard people mention it before, but I don't know its specific uses," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

A flicker of doubt passed through Gu Tianque's eyes, but he still explained, "The Colorful Rainbow Stone is a specialty of Mount Tongtian, and it only appears in the Heavenly Venerable-level regions! However, this thing is extremely rare; it may not appear even once in a million years. If a True God realm cultivator can obtain a Colorful Rainbow Stone, reaching the Heavenly Venerable realm is within reach! This thing is also extremely useful even for Heavenly Venerable experts."

Ye Yuan was secretly shocked. No wonder these people were so frantic—something that could allow a True God to break through to Heavenly Venerable.

Even knowing they were no match for these ghost path experts, they stubbornly refused to retreat.

"Ye Yuan, we must obtain this Colorful Rainbow Stone!" A sharp glint flashed in Gu Tianque's eyes.

It was a vast open space, and behind the ghost path experts was a deep, dark cave.

If nothing unexpected happened, the Colorful Rainbow Stone should be inside that cave.

Whoosh!

Gu Tianque moved, darting swiftly toward the cave.

This sudden change naturally alarmed all the experts.

"Gu Tianque, how dare you!" Ji Kang bellowed.

"Gu Tianque, you deserve to die!" Yang Yidao also roared.

Gu Tianque's actions filled everyone with indignation.

They had been fighting fiercely for half a day, never expecting Gu Tianque to seize an opportunity.

However, Gu Tianque was extremely fast; in the blink of an eye, he had already plunged into the cave.

"Ghost Wind, go in and kill him! No one else is allowed to lay a finger on the Seven-Colored Glazed Stone!" the leader of the ghost path experts commanded harshly.

"Yes!" Ghost Wind acknowledged the order and also dove headfirst into the cave.

With Ghost Wind gone, the pressure on Ji Kang's side was greatly reduced.

"Ye Yuan, this..." Leng Qiuling had not expected Gu Tianque to be so resolute, and for a moment she was at a loss.

She had no idea what might exist inside that cave, and she was worried about Gu Tianque's safety.

Ye Yuan did not move, only saying, "Let's wait and see for now. Those who have been hiding their strength are probably about to show their true colors."

Sure enough, the leader of the ghost path experts suddenly let out a great roar: "Form the formation! Wipe them all out!"

Woo...

Suddenly, a fierce yin wind arose, and a terrifying ghostly energy surged forth.

Seeing this, Ji Kang and the others turned pale with fear.

The sixth-order late-stage ghost path experts each struck out mysterious seals, and a dreadful aura began to coalesce.

The ghost path leader roared: "Mad Blade Ghost Venerable, condense!"

Roar!

A colossal ghost path expert materialized!

The icy aura emanating from him nearly froze the space itself.

Ji Kang's pupils contracted, his face ashen, and he exclaimed, "Ghost Venerable! A... a Ghost Path Heavenly Venerable!"

The Mad Blade Ghost Venerable wielded a curved blade of unknown material, his deep, dark eyes sweeping over the crowd, bringing with them an aura of death.

The ghost path leader knelt directly and said, "Lord Venerable, these people covet the Seven-Colored Glazed Stone. Please, Lord, mete out punishment!"

"Those who covet the Seven-Colored Glazed Stone shall die!" The Mad Blade Ghost Venerable seemed to squeeze these words out from his throat, piercingly harsh.

Suddenly, the Mad Blade Ghost Venerable slashed out with his blade, and wherever it passed, space shattered!

The violent spatial storm created a massive vortex, as if to devour everything.

Ji Kang and the others changed color drastically and retreated swiftly.

But fast as they were, the Mad Blade Ghost Venerable's blade was faster!

This Mad Blade Ghost Venerable was a true Heavenly Venerable-level expert, with terrifyingly immense power.

But just then, from among the human experts, two incredibly powerful auras suddenly erupted.

Two plumes of black energy shot into the sky, their force not much weaker than that of the Mad Blade Ghost Venerable!

Two more Heavenly Venerable experts!

Boom!

Boom!

Two streams of black energy struck out, directly clashing head-on with the Mad Blade Ghost Venerable's slash.

The space of the Immortal Forest World was torn to shreds like paper by these three overwhelmingly powerful attacks.

"Hehe, we thought we could keep our strength hidden until we reached the Immortal Forest Old Ghost's palace, but we've been forced to reveal ourselves here!" a demonic Heavenly Venerable expert cackled.

"The Immortal Forest Old Ghost truly lives up to his reputation as a peerless expert who could contend with Lord Nine Entropy. Even after dying like this, he can still summon such a terrifying ghost path expert!" another demonic Heavenly Venerable said.

Both of them were actually demonic Heavenly Venerable experts!

The three powerful attacks gradually dissipated, and space slowly began to repair itself.

Ye Yuan watched this scene, his expression extremely grim.

What he had feared most had indeed come to pass!
