Chapter 1154: Cosmic Finger!

The Spatial Devil Ghost took the chance when his domain clashed against Yue Zhong's to tear another spatial hole, trying its best to escape.

With the ability to manipulate space freely, especially at its half-step Type 9 realm, even Yue Zhong's Devil Domain was unable to fully seal its movements.

Relying on the spatial advantage, this Spatial Devil Ghost would be to escape even from a Type 9 powerhouse.

Yue Zhong stared at the Devil Ghost with a chilly glint in his eyes. With a thought, he made use of the Radiant Battleship hidden within the void, and let out a powerful roar, "Break!!"

The Radiant Battleship released a powerful radiance, containing the laws and principles of space that struck the area, directly collapsing any spatial holes that the Devil Ghost had created. The hole he had just opened was instantly sealed shut.

Fear and despair were written all over the face of the Spatial Devil Ghost as he screamed out, "Impossible!! Impossible!! How could the spatial hole I tear open be closed?! Even a Type 9 powerhouse would not be able to do it!"

The Radiant Battleship was a Gold-Grade treasure worthy of challenging God and was a spatial treasure as well. It could transcend worlds, and travel freely, hence, sealing a spatial rip was incredibly easy for it.

As the Spatial Devil Ghost continued to scream and shout, the Cosmic Finger conjured by Yue Zhong finally struck the body of the enemy, causing it to break apart.

In order to vanquish this foe in the shortest possible time, Yue Zhong had thoroughly employed his trump cards. If he were to go easy, he would not be able to kill this Spatial Devil Ghost.

With the death of the Devil Ghost, a powerful source of life force flowed into Yue Zhong. At the same time, as he absorbed it, he gained a stronger sense of spatial laws, and the inner energy within him had reached the peak of the high-Type 8 level.

By the time he was done, his spirit rumbled, and there was joy in his eyes, "This Spatial Devil Ghost is a huge nourishment to me!! If I can hunt a dozen more of such half-step Type 9 powerhouses, I would be able to break into the Type 9 realm directly!"

"What?! Space Ren was killed!!"

"Who the hell is that fellow? How could he take down Space Ren?! That was unbelievable!! He's merely at the high-Type 8 realm, how did he do it?"

"…"

Seeing the half-step Type 9 Spatial Devil Ghost taken down by Yue Zhong, the 3 remaining Devils had eyes of shock and disbelief, their gaze towards Yue Zhong more wary and alarmed.

The Spatial Devil Ghosts were one of the toughest races to kill, even the 3 experts of the Devil Race would not be able to kill one in a frontal clash. At most, it would just be an impasse.

"Strong!!"

"That was formidable, who is this Yue Zhong? He was actually able to kill that half-step Type 9 Spatial Devil Ghost."

"Divine Envoy, are you certain he's just a Divine Envoy? If only those at the Divine Envoy level could kill that half-step Type 9 monster, then what the hell are we Holy Sons for?!"

"…"

A hubble of discussion began to break out within the human camp, as respect, admiration, envy, all sorts of gazes were thrown on Yue Zhong.

Yue Zhong's slaughter of that Devil Ghost had caused everyone to be filled with complicated feelings towards him.

Under their gazes, Yue Zhong and Annie entered the formation and came up to Qian Chang Qing.

Qian Chang Qing wore an amiable smile, as he greeted Yue Zhong warmly, "Yue Zhong, within our information network, we have never heard of you before! In all of Holy Heavens, any expert above the Type 7 realm had all been researched on and I've studied them all and remember them clearly. Are you able to share your background with me?"

Yue Zhong's strength had been displayed clearly for him to see, thus, Qian Chang Qing did not mind treating him as an equal.

Yue Zhong replied with a short but direct answer, "I'm the new disciple of the Central Temple's Holy Lord Tian Dou, and I'd just been raised to the Divine Envoy position a few days back."

Annie suddenly added in, "When he passed through the Initiation Gate, he triggered the Howling Dragon and Roaring Tiger image."

Hearing that, the rest all had changes in their expressions, their gazes towards Yue Zhong becoming even deeper. Someone who could trigger that image was definitely a heaven-defying genius. As long as he did not die, there was no question about his or her ascension to the Type 9 realm.

Qian Chang Qing and Hai Yin were considered talented powerhouses and were at the half-step Type 9 realm. However, to make that leap and cross into the Type 9 realm, it was incredibly difficult. Many experts have been stuck at that bottleneck for so long. Even the two of them had no confidence that they could break that barrier.

The rest of the Holy Sons and Daughters stared at Yue Zhong. They had not taken the legend of the dragon-tiger illusion, only after seeing Yue Zhong in action, did they realize how terrifying such a talent was.

Yue Zhong's gaze narrowed, "Qian Chang Qing, since the situation is at a stalemate, it's not good for us. Along the way, we sensed a number of Undying Devil Spirits, as well as powerful Mutant Beasts. If this continues, just a few of those Undying Devil Spirits would be enough to wipe us out."

Qian Chang Qing laughed bitterly, "I know this as well, however, if we were to move casually, the Man-Eaters and Devil Clan would launch an assault. If they were to join hands, we would be in trouble."

Yue Zhong glanced towards the direction of the opposite factions, and he frowned. He did not have a solution as well.

If the 2 groups joined hands, they would be enough to deal with the human faction. Even with Yue Zhong and Annie, it would be hard to deal with them.

Right at this time, the blue crystal key that was hidden in Yue Zhong's ring suddenly shot out of his ring, transcending space and directly inserted into the doors of the majestic temple.

The archaic and ancient gates of the temple that was engraved in runes then swung open slowly.

At the same time, there were many loud horn sounds.

Under the enveloping horn sounds, the entire region started to crack open, as numerous skeletons of different sizes started climbing out of the ground.

They were of different sizes and shapes, but share one common trait, which was that their bones were all golden in color. Even after goodness knows how long, they had maintained that resplendent gold color. Their eyes were all shining with intelligent flames, and their bodies radiated an insidious but powerful aura.

These skeletons were not Undying Devil Spirits, but another variant of the undead called Specter Skeletons. In the past, these had all been half-step Type 10 powerhouses. They had developed indestructible physiques and were just left with the transformation of their souls to reach the Type 10 stage, a True God. After their deaths, they had left their physiques behind, that merged with the gathered Yin qi and resentment to form these Specter Skeletons.

Each one of them was at the Type 8 realm, some of the strongest even being at the Type 9 realm. Within the Merlot Battlefield, they were also considered one of the most terrifying forces.

These tens of thousands of Specter Skeletons gathered together, even a half-step True God powerhouse would feel his scalp turn numb and retreat. Otherwise, there was a danger of perishing here.

Within the area of over a 10,000 li, countless skeletons continued to emerge from the grounds, and the beautiful region rich in cultivation energy was suddenly overflowing with resentment, deathly qi, insidious Yin energy.

The skeletons gathered immediately when they emerged, moving slowly but steadily towards the temple.

At this point, a land near the temple also began to split open as large, golden skeleton hands burst out, pulling the rest of their skeletons up.

"The doors of the treasury is open! Let's head in first!" The 3 Devils laughed out loud, and transformed into beams of light that shot towards the temple.

Earlier, when all 3 factions had waited outside the palace, it was because the gates were shut. If any were to try and open the gate, the other 2 would pounce on them. Hence, a strange equilibrium was achieved. Now that the gate was opened, the Devil Race could not be bothered with the humans. The treasures within the palace were of even greater importance.

At the entrance, 8 Specter Skeletons leaped out, wielding bone-formed weapons, pouncing towards the 3 Devils.

"Hahaha, a bunch of bones, break for me!!"

One of the Devils charged forward with a vicious smile, punching out over a thousand times on the bodies of the 8 Specter Skeletons.

With a single blast, all of the skeletons broke apart in multiple directions, the souls in their heads also dissipated by the Devil Race member.

After that, the 3 of them immediately charged into the temple.

"Go!!"

Following Qian Chang Qing's signal, the rest of the humans also charged right into the temple.

The 8 Man-Eaters also quickly moved, heading into the temple.
