Chapter 497 Pearl Ceremony (4)
“Not good, it’s Old Ghost White!” The Third Patriarch’s expression changed.
The gigantic skeleton in the sky didn’t have a single strand of flesh, and it could actually let out a “cracking” laugh. The two balls of ghost flames in its eyes flickered, and they were filled with a sinister and terrifying aura.
Those who didn’t know thought that this was the resurrection of a Bone Demon.
“This skeleton is a White Bone Great Devil. It is controlled by an expert from Diabolism. This person is the White Bone Devil Sect’s White Old Ghost!” The Third Ancestor said in a deep voice, “This person has a grudge against our Pearl City. Back then, his three White Bone Great Demons were heavily injured by our two Ancestors’ Purple Firmament Lightning Technique and suffered heavy losses. They should be here for revenge now.”
“This is a special time for the celebration. If Old Ghost White destroys our good deeds, he will be able to damage the reputation of Pearl City. What a sinister plan!” Dongfang You Long said in a deep voice.
“If we can beat Old Ghost White back, wouldn’t that also increase the reputation of Pearl City?” Dongfang Bingyun smiled and said, “Since we still have two other ancestors, why should we be afraid of him?”
The Third Patriarch remained silent, a trace of worry flashing through his eyes.
Just as they were speaking, the White Bone Great Devil in the sky had already descended. He laughed coldly and said, “What a lively grand gathering! How could it be without me? Why is there only Daoist Qianyuan today? Where are the other two old things in Pearl City?”
The Third Ancestor said coldly, “They are still cultivating in seclusion. There is no need for them to take action against you. I alone am enough!”
“I don’t think they are cultivating in seclusion, right? How can they not show their faces even after cultivating for over a hundred years? It’s clear that those two old men have already died, so they can’t show their faces at all!” The White Bone Great Devil laughed heartily.
Everyone’s eyes revealed a peculiar expression. Actually, this saying had a long history. Many people felt that the other two Patriarchs of Pearl City had long since passed away, which was why they hadn’t appeared for such a long time.
However, this statement could not be verified.
Now, let this old ghost White test it out. Perhaps, he can discern some details.
“I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you. The two Patriarchs of my Pearl City are still alive and well. You don’t have to waste your time trying to probe them.” The Third Patriarch said calmly.
“Since that’s the case, then let those two old bastards come out. Today, I will avenge my great vengeance from thirty years ago!” Old Ghost White said with a venomous tone.
“Why do I need the two Patriarchs to take action against you? I can do it alone!” The aura of the Third Ancestor did not falter.
“Just you? The fourth level of the Void Realm isn’t enough for me to see!” Old Ghost White snorted coldly, “Alright, I’ll let you see how powerful I am today. After I kill you, I believe those two old things will definitely come out.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the black clouds surge violently. Not long after, two equally gigantic white skeletons walked out, emitting a terrifying aura. The gloomy eyes and ghost flames caused the faces of the guests present to change.
“I didn’t expect you to refine the three White Bone Great Demons back! It seems like you’ve been scheming for revenge. No wonder you dared to come to Pearl City to cause trouble!” A trace of fear flashed through the Third Patriarch’s eyes.
“Haha, I will destroy your Pearl City today and see if the two old things will come out!” Old Ghost White laughed wildly.
Boom!
The three White Bone Great Demons charged over aggressively, their giant white bone claws grabbing towards the main hall.
The Third Ancestor said in a deep voice, “Idle people, quickly retreat!”
He took the initiative to welcome them and flew out of the central hall to fight against the three White Bone Great Demons.
“Tidal Sword!” The Third Ancestor took out a large blue sword. It was actually a high-grade spirit artifact. This was another treasure of Pearl City. It was inherited from Adept Tidal Wave hundreds of years ago and possessed unbelievable power.
His sword slashed out, triggering the void tide and sending the three White Bone Great Demons flying.
“How can these three White Bone Great Demons be my opponents?” The Third Ancestor held a heavy weapon in his hand, and he was filled with high spirits.
“Ning!” A shrill voice came from the black clouds. The three White Bone Great Demons quickly gathered together and formed an even larger skeleton.
After gathering the power of the three Bone Demons, this Skeleton King was several hundred feet tall, and its strength was even stronger. It was actually able to resist the power of the Tidal Sword like a reef in the ocean.
“Slash!” The Third Ancestor slashed the Bone Demon with his sword, and he heard a loud explosion, breaking dozens of bones in a row.
The Tidal Sword was a high-grade spirit artifact that was unparalleled in sharpness, unable to withstand even the Bone Demon’s hard defense.
“How dare you hurt my Bone Demon!”
A fat old man walked out of the black clouds. However, his skin was extremely pale, and all his hair was white. He was also wearing a white dress.
This was clearly Old Ghost White’s true form.
He held a pagoda made of white bones in his hand. It had a total of seventeen floors. He threw it into the sky and saw it rise in the wind. It turned into a colossus that was several hundred feet tall.
“White Bone Pagoda! You actually refined this thing to the seventeenth floor? How is that possible?” The Third Ancestor cried out.
It turned out that the most commonly used treasure of White Bone Demon Sect experts was this White Bone Buddha Pagoda. It was forged from the bones of human experts and demonic beasts to form the Evil Buddha Pagoda.
This type of white bone tower did not have a fixed number of floors. As long as one could find enough corpses of experts, they would be able to add layers after layers of barriers, and their potential was limitless.
The higher the number of floors, the more powerful it would be.
It was rumored that the White Bone Sect’s treasure was a 123-storey White Bone Pagoda. It was unknown how many corpses of experts had condensed within it, and its power had reached an unbelievable level.
Although the seventeenth level White Bone Pagoda in front of him was still far inferior to his own sect’s treasure, it was already considered a fairly powerful treasure in the Void Realm.
No wonder the Third Patriarch was so shocked. Back then, Old Ghost White had only refined this White Bone Pagoda into 13 layers, and it was already unparalleled in strength. In the end, he had to rely on the second Patriarch of Pearl City to defeat it with a thunderbolt of heavenly lightning.
Now that he had returned to take revenge, he was actually able to make such great progress. Not only had he reforged the three White Bone Great Demons, he had also forged the White Bone Pagoda into seventeen layers. This was simply unimaginable.
‘”For revenge, I’ve prepared for thirty years. I borrowed many corpses from the White Bone Sect to refine this seventeen-level White Bone Pagoda. Today, I want to see how you can withstand it!” Old White laughed heartily.
“Town!”
The seventeen-storey White Bone Tower that was several hundred feet tall stood horizontally in the void, suppressing it. It was as if the void had collapsed. Many guests in the hall felt an enormous power, and they were unable to breathe.
“Void Tide, Nine Storms!”
Boom!
A void storm swept up out of thin air, one after another, and nine tides of tidal force resisted the White Bone Pagoda with difficulty.
The Third Patriarch’s face flushed red. It was obvious that it was extremely strenuous.
“Patriarch, let’s give you a hand!” When Dongfang You Long and Dongfang Bing Yun saw that things were not going well, they both rushed into the sky.
Old Ghost White frowned and shouted, “Go!”
The White Bone Great Devil condensed from the three skeletons flew towards the Dongfang father and daughter and engaged in a fierce battle with the two of them, causing them to be inextricably linked.
Old Ghost White smiled sinisterly, “It’s already this time. The two old men from Pearl City haven’t come out yet. Could it be that they’re really dead?”
When the guests from the main hall heard Old Ghost White’s words, their eyes shone with a strange light. No matter how stupid they were, they could still sense that something was wrong.
Old Ghost White relied on all sorts of methods to suppress the three Void Realms of the Dongfang Clan by himself. The situation was precarious, and someone might fall if he wasn’t careful. In such a dangerous situation, the other two ancestors of Pearl City did not appear. No matter what, they could not justify it.
It was impossible for them not to notice the battle here. Such an intense movement could be detected even from a distance of a hundred miles away, let alone the Void Realm that possessed divine sense.
Looks like the other two Patriarchs of Pearl City might really have perished.
Old Ghost White waited in the sky for a while, but when he saw that no one had appeared, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “Those two old things are really dead. Today, I will destroy your Pearl City!”
The Third Ancestor was extremely anxious. He said to everyone in the hall, “I hope that you fellow daoists will lend a helping hand. After that, I will definitely be extremely grateful!”
However, the guests in the hall remained indifferent, their expressions incomparably cold.
What a joke. Pearl City has dominated the coastal area for so many years, suppressing the rest of the forces. They wish for Pearl City to be annihilated by Old Ghost White. Doesn’t that mean they can reap the benefits of a fisherman?
Someone couldn’t help but sneer inwardly. Today was supposed to be a joyous day for Pearl City, but now the joyous event was about to turn into a funeral.
“Help me a lot, but not enough. It seems like your Pearl City isn’t very popular. Not a single one of you came forward to help you.” Old White’s face revealed a mocking expression. “If the heavens want to destroy you, there’s nothing I can do. Let’s start with these two little fellows.”
He stretched out his large hand, and white bones began to grow out of it. In the end, it turned into a giant white bone claw and grabbed towards the Dongfang father and daughter.
“Danger!” The eyes of the three Patriarchs were about to split apart, and they were suppressed by the White Bone Pagoda, unable to lend a helping hand at all.
Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and Dongfang Father and
Right here, a large hand that covered the sky and covered the sun stretched out from the hall. The power between its fingers contained the power to break through the heavens and earth, and it fought head-on with the white bone claws.
Rumble!
The dark clouds in the sky were scattered. Old Ghost White actually took a step back. A glint flashed in his eyes, “What a powerful force! Which fellow cultivator dares to ruin my good fortune?”
The Third Ancestor revealed a delighted expression, “Haha, someone is finally willing to help us!”
A streak of light flew out of the hall. After the three Patriarchs saw this person’s face clearly, the smile on his face froze.
