All of a sudden, a golden mighty hand came bursting forth from the ground, grabbing the 8 Man-Eaters.
Ghost Tun roared out, sending out his own fist that caused the atmospheric energy to congeal into a green fist that slammed into the descending palm, "Get lost!"
The huge golden hand waved casually, and scattered the energy punch of Ghost Tun, before slapping out once more, turning one of the Man-Eating Ghosts into meat paste.
"It's a Type 9 Specter Skeleton!! Everyone flee!!" Ghost Tun had a horrified expression as he roared out and quickly shot towards the temple.
A Type 9 powerhouse and a half-step Type 9 powerhouse were 2 vastly different entities. Ghost Tun, who was at the half-step Type 9 stage, would only fall at the hands of a Type 9 powerhouse.
Hearing that, the rest of the Man-Eaters had changes in their countenance as they quickly made for the huge temple.
In that instant, a humanoid Specter Skeleton with a pair of golden wings and a single golden horn on its forehead shot out from the side, the blade in its hands slicing down at one of the Man-Eaters, carving him in half.
Another Specter Skeleton formed from only 10 bones leaped out from the ground, grabbing one of the Man-Eaters and dragged him towards the deep recess of the abyss in the ground.
Not long after, there was a miserable shriek from the ground, before it fell silent.
In just a moment, the Man-Eaters had suffered a huge loss. The humans did not have an easy time either.
A huge golden palm burst out from the ground, exuding a mighty aura that slapped towards the formation of the human group.
That palm carried a boundless strength formed from resentment and Yin Qi, as well as thick Death laws, slapping down towards them.
The leader, Qian Chang Qing, had a steely expression as he roared, "Evacuate!!"
Even if they were to combine all 40 of them, it would not be enough to take on that single palm. The only thing they could do was to quickly leave the location.
The 40 human experts were all alert, and reacted at the same time, dodging to the sides. However, since the golden palm had burst forth, in a single grab, it managed to grab one Holy Son.
"Save me!! Save me!!"
The face of the Holy Son contorted as he let out screams of despair and fear. However, a terrifying pressure enveloped him, and in an instant, he was crushed and reduced to a pile of bones without any sign of life left.
Yue Zhong stared at the Holy Son, his scalp turning numb, "What a domineering Type 9 Specter Skeleton!!"
There were Specter Skeletons everywhere, and under the terrifying pressure, 2 Holy Sons immediately executed their techniques in a bid to flee. They had already abandoned all thoughts of fighting for treasures and wanted to get out alive.
Seeing that, the rest also began to react, a few of them wanting to leave as well. Treasures were good, but their lives were more important.
Right at that moment, 2 golden bone arrows tore through the skies, piercing the 2 fleeing Holy Sons. In a breath, they turned into skeletons and fell from the skies, not a breath left in them.
Yue Zhong swept a look and discovered many of the Specter Skeletons were just standing guard outside of the Temple, not daring to go near it. He had the epiphany right then, "The inner sanctum!! Enter the inner sanctum and we'll have a chance!! These Specter Skeletons do not dare enter the Divine Temple."
After that, his figure flashed and he charged in the direction of the Temple.
At that moment, a Specter Skeleton with gold bone wings shot in front of him, slashing out towards Yue Zhong's heart with its claws.
"Go to hell!" Yue Zhong punched out with his fist, slamming into the Specter Skeleton and his immense strength burst forth, directly breaking the skeleton apart.
After destroying the Specter Skeleton, Yue Zhong took the opportunity to enter the Temple Gates, as he stood there and turned around, his eyes flashing with a strange glint, "There's no life force. These are all undead, there are no benefits for me in killing them."
The God-Devil Imprint could absorb the life force of the entities that Yue Zhong killed, but with regards to those that did not have any flesh or blood, even if they were killed, there was no life force to be absorbed. After all, they were constructed from strength and resentment.
The various Holy Sons and Daughters of the human factions were experts in their own right, making use of all their abilities to weave through the line of Specter Skeletons, arriving at the temple gate. However, 3 of them were lost to the Specter Skeletons.
However, with more humans entering the temple, the attention of the Specter Skeletons shifted to those still outside, increasing the difficulty.
One particular Holy Son opened his palms, and fired out vines, grabbing 2 of the Specter Skeletons in front of him and flung them violently behind, "Get the hell out of my way!"
After throwing those 2 skeletons, the Holy Son continued to soar towards the gates. As long as he reached, he would be safe.
At that moment, there was a flash of gold, as a blade sliced through the head of the Holy Son, directly splitting his head in half and his corpse fell out of the sky. He was barely 50m away from the Temple gates.
Seeing this, all the human experts felt a chill in their hearts, as they watched the 5 remaining human powerhouses and their struggles.
Even a half-step Type 9 powerhouse would fall when surrounded by such numbers. The remaining 5 powerhouses were considered the weakest among the human faction, without any external help, they would surely die.
Yue Zhong took a look, and frowned, before tapping his foot and charging straight into their midst.
Annie was surrounded by numerous transparent silk while in the midst of the Specter Skeletons, continually fending them off. If the skeletons had flesh, they would have been ripped apart by those wires. However, as their bones were from half-step Type 10 experts, they were incredibly tough, and unless an actual Type 9 powerhouse acted, it was impossible to break their bones.
Annie then controlled the silk to bounce the skeletons away. Soon, she was covered in perspiration, and her strength was beginning to ebb away. She was utilizing all her concentration and strength to resist their attacks. As long as she became weaker by half, the Specter Skeletons would be able to barge through her defenses and tear her apart. Under that sort of pressure, she continued maintaining her focus.
All of a sudden, a huge Skeleton appeared, over a dozen meters tall, sending a powerful punch towards her.
With a loud blast, the silky webs were almost torn apart, while the Specter Skeleton was also sent flying back by the rebound.
At the moment Annie's defenses crumbled, 4 Specter Skeletons charged forth, slashing out at her from 4 different directions.
As danger befell her, Annie continued to maintain an icy look, however, there was a sliver of despair in her heart, "Who would have thought that I'd perish here!!"
Just then, a figure shot past one of the Skeletons, sending a powerful punch out, and the atmospheric energy gathered together before exploding out, and the Specter Skeletons were all blasted backward in a shower of gold bones.
Annie focused her eyes, noticing that it was Yue Zhong, and there was a strange feeling that welled up in her, "It's Yue Zhong! He saved me!!"
"Gather on me!!" Yue Zhong roared out in rage, as he sent out another punch full of strength, blasting another dozen Specters away.
The 4 other Holy Sons quickly gathered around him, forming a small formation.
"Charge!!"
He waved his fists, and punched out at space, causing a huge atmospheric pressure to weigh down on the scattered bones, preventing them from reforming, and forcefully carved a path out.
The 5 other Holy Sons and Daughters quickly executed their secret techniques as well, triggering the atmospheric energy to fend off the Skeletons at the side.
In terms of strength, these human powerhouses were stronger than those ordinary Specter Skeletons, after all, they were talented cultivators.
Just as they were about to break out of the deadlock, the earth suddenly split apart, and a huge giant Specter Skeleton appeared. It was the one who had squashed the peak-Type 8 Man-Eater.
