blade and claws also desperately tried to break free from this restraint.Lu Xia Tian's eyes narrowed. In his current state, with Xiang Qing Cheng by his side, he couldn't possibly escape this situati...And slender ghost cycad trees grew on these floating stones, forming a boundless expanse of floating forest. Some of the stones were ashen gray, while others, like those in the previous void, shimmered with various hues of light.

Behind them, dozens of people from the human and demon races, powerful cultivators of the Divine Void Realm, gave chase. Lu Xiaoteng and Zhu Qi directly leaped into the Ghost Cycad Forest.

"Damn it, these two actually have the guts to enter Ghost Cycad Forest." The tall and lean fire wolf demon's face was gloomy. Several squads were divided into groups, each stationed outside Ghost Cycad Forest. Ghost Cycad Forest wasn't unique to this ghost realm. There were also places with eerie ghostly energy outside, but the one in front of them floated in mid-air, plus those glowing strange stones, it looked extremely bizarre. Moreover, the Ghost Cycads here were noticeably taller and more luxuriant than elsewhere.

“They all have the guts to go in. Do we, with so many of us, compare less favorably to those two” The leader, Xiong Yaojie, growled in a deep voice.

"Daoist Jie Du is a rare master of the Fire Bear Clan, he certainly wouldn't look down on these ghost cycad trees. Why not lead the way" the old woman with the phoenix head staff cackled.

“Come on, come on, I’m too lazy to walk with you guys.” Xiong Yaojie snorted coldly, waved his hand, and led his fellow monsters around the Ghost Cycad Forest.

“With such a developed brain and simple limbs, that's just an eyesore, Meng Dao-you. Let us join forces, taking turns clearing the path. What do you say” The fire wolf demon weasel, leading the pack, saw the bear demon walk away and immediately grinned.

"Exactly what this old woman had in mind," the crone with the phoenix-head cane nodded, "Let this old one take charge for a while."

As she spoke, the old woman with the phoenix-head cane lifted her foot lightly, her figure flickering as she entered the Ghost Cycad Forest. In the distance, a sudden scream echoed from within the seemingly tranquil Ghost Cycad Forest, and countless branches transformed into long, bony whips, lashing down.

Pigsy roared, wielding his pair of fire hammers. He swung them through the air, leaving a trail of fiery red behind. The instant that red trail touched the white bone branches, they snapped with a loud crackle.

Lu Xiaotian's divine sense moved, and a misty sword embryo flew out from his body, dividing into countless flying swords. The sword light crisscrossed, transforming the surroundings into a realm of swords.

"Lu brother, you have good tactics! The fire wolves behind you should be the subordinates of the Purple Fire Wolf King, and the other group of humans are the forces behind the Abyssal Hall. While they're trapped in the Ghost Cycad Forest, let's find a chance to detour out." The wild boar demon transmitted his voice to Lu Xia Tian, then held up that black-green small gourd. Inside, a shadow flickered and changed, actually able to point out places where ghost qi was relatively weak.

This is the translated text.

"Roar! Those luminous crystals inside, they're the same ones I encountered before. They transform into all sorts of human-headed, beast-headed monsters, lunging towards Lu Xia Tian and Zhu Qi with their teeth bared."

...these ghost cycads transformed into white bone whips and glowing crystal stone heads, beast heads, demonic creatures once they entered Lu Xiaotian's sword domain. They barely lasted a few rounds. Under the seemingly surging attacks and crisscrossing sword lights, these formidable assaults were reduced to severed bones one after another.

Using Buddhist and Taoist methods to restrain these ghostly auras was indeed more effective, but the ghost-bamboo in the spirit world was an extremely peculiar kind of existence. Although it was also subject to restraint, once it encountered Buddhist or Taoist artifacts, it would fall into a state of frenzied madness that bordered on delirium. It could almost incite the entire ghost-bamboo forest to riot. At this time, if Lu Xia Tian used the Demon Subduing Pagoda, he would undoubtedly be courting disaster.

Since Lu Xiaoteng's swordsmanship had reached mastery, he gradually refined the Piaotian Sword Embryo, reaching the peak of the Shenxu realm. Although he no longer intentionally suppressed the Piao Miao Sword Embryo, it was the first time he released it without any reservations like this. At this moment, the Piao Miao Sword Embryo was like a ferocious beast that had been trapped for hundreds of years. Although its aura still floated out of dust, in the eyes of the wild boar demon Zhu Qi, it was unmatched domineering. The Piao Miao Sword Embryo transformed into eight, and wherever the flying sword passed, a piece of bone debris flew across. As for those glowing crystals, they couldn't withstand a few rounds within the sword domain and were shattered by the sword light.

The seemingly eerie ghostly aura was sliced open like tofu by the flying sword. At this time, the wild boar demon was also within the range of Lu Xia Tian's sword domain, and could feel that instinctive fear from the bottom of his heart. Under this sword domain, Zhu Qi couldn't even muster a shred of resistance.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At this time, Zhu Qi was naturally unaware. This was also the first time Lu Xia Tian had merged his primordial spirit with the sword embryo domain. Compared to the mid-stage of the integration realm, his current primordial spirit, when using the sword embryo domain, made the sharpness of the ethereal flying sword far surpass even Ye Zi Yu who cultivated this path now. Even if Ye Zi Yu was exceptionally gifted and his swordsmanship was ever-changing, when performing the same flying sword technique, Lu Xia Tian's execution had a straightforward, powerful quality. The strong primordial spirit imbued even an ordinary-looking strike with the power to transform decay into magic.

Even just using his primordial spirit, Lu Xia Tian was enough to suppress the boar demon, who broke out in a cold sweat and couldn't move. Not to mention that he was now using the Sword Embryo Realm. However, this ghostly aura of the haunted forest had no effect on Lu Xia Tian whatsoever. Unlike the boar demon and other cultivators, when fighting with the Ghost-Bamboo Tree, the humanoid creature formed by the luminous sunstones and the monster's head, they had to worry about being invaded by other evil spirits within their bodies. In this aspect, ordinary ghosts couldn't even get close to Lu Xia Tian. Even a Combined Body Realm ghost wouldn't be able to approach silently, it would be extremely difficult.

The eight flying swords transformed from the ethereal sword embryo danced in mid-air, their sword lights forming pillars that intertwined. They clashed and whirled, forcing the ghost sandalwood tree to falter for a moment under Lu Xiaoteng's relentless attack. Meanwhile, the group of human cultivators led by the old woman wielding the phoenix-headed staff who had just burst through were equally astonished. As they cleared a path through the ghost sandalwood trees, slashing their way past the fire wolf demons blocking their advance, they were left speechless by the incredible scene before them.

"This man's swordsmanship is truly formidable, moving through the ghostly Ghost Palm Forest as if on level ground. Even the once-feared Fiery Cloud Demon wouldn't be this capable, I wager." A middle-aged man wearing a black felt hat watched the crisscrossing sword light and shivered involuntarily.

"Nonsense, this sword cultivator though powerful, is probably no match for the Firecloud Demon." At this time, a fire wolf demon retorted.

“Never been beaten, you know.” The man in the black felt hat grinned.

“The sword cultivator’s move does resemble the person we’re looking for, as rumored.” The elder with the phoenix-head cane suddenly narrowed his triangular eyes, revealing a chilling light.

However, just as the old man with the phoenix-head staff finished speaking, Lu Xiaoteng, who had been charging forward and preparing to leave, suddenly turned his head and glanced at the old woman with the phoenix-head staff.

The old crone with the phoenix-headed cane saw those bland eyes and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. The killing intent within them sent shivers down her spine, a feeling she only experienced when facing the pressure of powerful entities who had fused together.y ignited by the Wuxiang Xuanhuo, just as it let out a shrill cry, Lu Xiaotian thought it was too noisy, so he increased the power of the fire pillar. In an instant, this dozens of miles long vine dem...
