Chapter 147 Ghost Officials

The ghost official's whip is no ordinary whip.

If this whip struck, Wu Guide's soul and spirit would instantly scatter.

Without this soul and spirit, Wu Guide would spend the rest of his life in a dream.

However, just as the ghost official lashed out with his whip, he suddenly felt a tremendous force grab the whip, causing it to float stiffly in mid-air, unmoving.

He looked back, but there was no one behind him.

Niu Tou and Ma Mian exchanged a sharp glance, saying almost in unison, "An expert is here!"

This sudden little incident helped Chen Xiao make a decision.

He decided not to sneak in but to meet these ghost officials first and then decide.

Flying down on his sword, Chen Xiao landed steadily on the ground.

All the ghost officials immediately focused their attention on him, and the zou yin people also looked at him with bewildered expressions.

Including Wu Guide, though his expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of recognition of Chen Xiao.

"Bold human, trespassing on the forbidden grounds of the underworld, what is your intention!"

The ghost official, whose whip was being controlled, shouted loudly at Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao frowned slightly, his divine sense stirring.

He originally wanted to give these ghost officials a show of force, but under the pressure of his divine sense, the ghost official only showed a painful expression without being directly crushed to death.

Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes: This ghost official has something, this is not the strength that a Yuanying stage cultivator should have!

The ghost official also felt the pressure brought by the divine sense, and immediately bared his teeth and shouted at Chen Xiao, "You human, how dare you attack this official?"

Bang!

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiao's divine sense finally crushed him.

It took a little effort, but no big deal.

What surprised Chen Xiao slightly was that this ghost official was not a soul body but had a solid physical body.

When his physical body was crushed by his divine sense, it also burst into a cloud of blood mist.

This also means that the so-called ghost officials are actually humans!

After the ghost official was crushed, the scene suddenly became chaotic.

When the zou yin people saw the ghost official being killed, they were in a panic and scattered like birds and beasts. Before long, the souls of the zou yin people were gone.

The ghost officials drew their weapons and surrounded Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao's boldness was beyond their comprehension and expectation.

Because normal humans would be wary of them ghost officials as a first reaction.

This human, without saying a word, killed a colleague first, causing the ghost officials to be shocked, angry, and furious!

The simple dao in their hands gleamed, with a layer of black force circulating on them.

"Fall back!"

Just then, a voice like muffled thunder boomed from behind the ghost officials.

The ghost officials retreated one after another, and Niu Tou swaggered forward.

This Niu Tou was large and heavy. Every time he took a step forward, the ground would make a dull thud.

As he walked, he stirred up dust and smoke.

"Who are you?"

Niu Tou looked down at Chen Xiao and asked in a muffled voice.

Ma Mian followed closely behind.

His figure was similar to Niu Tou's, but his footsteps were incredibly light.

His journey was the opposite of Niu Tou's.

Not only did he not make any sound, but he also did not leave any traces on the ground.

After arriving in front of Chen Xiao, he muttered to himself in a low voice, "Martial artist? Cultivator? Or demon cultivator?"

"Seems like none of them, then what is this thing? Such a powerful spiritual power, I wonder what method it cultivates."

Ma Mian shook his head, his eyes filled with doubt and speculation.

"You don't need to know who I am. I'm just borrowing the boundary gate. I need to find something in the underworld."

Chen Xiao told the truth, his tone devoid of emotion or fluctuation.

However, these words sounded ridiculous and offensive to the ghost officials.

"Looking for something in the underworld? Human, you have a big tone!"

Niu Tou said in a muffled voice, "Besides, you killed my official without saying a word, is that how you borrow things?"

"To actually know that the ghost gate is the boundary gate, this child is definitely not an ordinary human, but who exactly is he?"

Ma Mian shook his head, muttering as if unable to figure it out.

"Sigh."

Chen Xiao sighed and said with a helpless expression, "If that's the case, then I have no choice but to kill you all!"

"Bold madman, I think you're courting death!"

Niu Tou shouted violently, and a thick and long chain appeared in his hands.

Spiritual energy flowed on the chain, emitting a palpitating black luster.

"Don't you want to go to the underworld? This official will use this soul-snatching chain to escort you to the underworld!"

Clatter clatter clatter—

The chain went straight for Chen Xiao, like a long snake, instantly wrapping around Chen Xiao's body.

Chen Xiao only felt a buzz in his head, and his heart trembled, producing a feeling of being disembodied.

The soul-snatching chain was extracting his soul from his body.

In an instant, Chen Xiao calmed down.

A mere soul-snatching chain could not possibly extract his soul.

He circulated his spiritual energy, and with a bang, the soul-snatching chain broke inch by inch and flew out.

"What?"

Niu Tou was shocked, "You can actually break this official's soul-snatching chain, Ma Mian, let's go together!"

"I'm afraid the two of us aren't enough!"

Ma Mian stared at Chen Xiao and said quietly, "All ghost officials, listen to my order, set up the Earth Net Formation!"

In an instant, the sound of drawing sabers rose everywhere. The ghost officials ran to their positions, forming a circle, surrounding Chen Xiao.

Black forces burst out from the tips of the ghost officials' sabers, intertwined with each other, forming an Earth Net!

This is the so-called Earth Net Formation!

"A bunch of bugs, humans go to the underworld when they die, I wonder where you go when you die!"

Chen Xiao's voice was cold, and his divine sense spread overwhelmingly, locking onto every ghost official.

"Human, it seems you know nothing about ghost cultivators!"

Ma Mian said quietly, "Ghost cultivators mainly cultivate spiritual power. Using spiritual power attacks in front of us is like showing off your axe in front of Lu Ban!"

"I see."

Chen Xiao nodded slightly. His divine sense had been invincible when dealing with those Eastern Ocean trash.

But dealing with these ghost officials was a bit difficult.

"In that case, I'll just change my method of attack!"

Chen Xiao sacrificed the Yitian Sword, and with a few swift slashes, sword energy swept out, and a group of ghost officials died under the sword, their heads separated from their bodies!

"How is this possible? Aren't you mainly cultivating spiritual power? Why can you emit such powerful force?"

Ma Mian's horse face stretched even longer, utterly astonished.

"Who said I mainly cultivate spiritual power?"

Chen Xiao smiled slightly, "That's just a new toy I recently mastered!"
