Chapter 112: Killing Intent
The narrow corridor was too cramped for proper combat, and with the number of ghost soldiers growing by the second, even his golden kasaya could only hold them off for so long.
With the two great figures holding the line, the rest of the cultivators retreated swiftly back to the previous chamber.
A moment later, a fully armed phalanx of ghost soldiers stormed in after them!
Everyone was instantly hit by a wave of dizziness, as if their very souls were being wrenched from their bodies.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Their hearts pounded uncontrollably, and their consciousness began to blur.
“Oṃ Maṇi Padme Hūṃ[1]!”
Master Shenshan’s expression was solemn and dignified as he began chanting a Buddhist incantation.
At once, the sensation of soul-rending vanished, and the oppressive weight lifted. The monk’s profound cultivation in Buddhist arts was on full display.
Boom! A golden flame burst from his palm like a divine fire dragon, and it surged forward and slammed into the advancing ghost soldiers!
Several were instantly incinerated, reduced to nothing but ash and scattered dust. Within this unusual tomb, the ghost soldiers seemed to be empowered by a mysterious force, and wave after wave surged forward without hesitation.
Clang!
Daoist Master Yuanyi unsheathed his sword, and a dazzling flash of white light swept through the room, instantly cutting down several ghost soldiers.
