Chapter 517: 180
However, the following second, a strange cry could be heard from Elder Clinton who all but fled out of the connecting tunnel.
The three of them hurried back into the Underground Palace in panic.
A glance over their shoulder revealed a sea of black clouds, filled with all sorts of ghost mask faces, pursuing them relentlessly.
These ghost masks were baring their teeth and rolling their eyes while wailing in agony.
The shrieks were clearly audible, evoking chills and provoking a change in their spirit from a considerable distance away.
Enlightenment immediately indicated the presence of a detrimental status effect:”You have been attacked by the ‘Evil Ghosts’ Disturbance’, Spirit Confusion +1′′
The White family was not only proficient in spirit communication but also excelled in controlling ghosts.
Upon witnessing this, Leonard Churchill’s expression grew solemn, however, he wasn’t particularly surprised.
...
Forced to return, Elder Clinton and his companions initially wanted to seek refuge in the Underground Palace.
But after viewing the nearly pervasive cursed spirit snakes, the expressions on their faces changed dramatically within seconds.
Even though Leonard Churchill managed to cling onto life amidst the horde of snakes, there was no guarantee that Elder Clinton and his companions would have the same fate.
Although Catherine Carter had already tried her best to clear up the snakes around her using ultrasonic waves, and Colin’s sword was constantly raining down in thick smog.
But, the quantity of the spirit snakes was simply overwhelming.
The three people were surrounded on all sides, the war zone was shrinking, and the space to maneuver was becoming increasingly scarce.
Leonard Churchill was watching helplessly, he could offer no assistance whatsoever.
He was able to lose the curse white snake crowd due to his speed, but even this didn’t help much, as he was forced into a crisis involuntarily.
If he were to attempt a merge, he would only attract an even larger group of white snakes, ultimately resulting in a mass homicide.
His only option was to possibly contain as many snake groups as he could.
However, not being able to kill Vivian White meant that the curse couldn’t be completely lifted, hence, sooner or later, all four inevitably will die.
At this critical juncture, the inevitable death threat was choking them enough to make all four individuals suffocate.
Looking at Elder Clinton, who was struggling to flee, Leonard Churchill whispered to himself, “Elder, isn’t it high time your other identity came online...”
However, Leonard didn’t hold much hope on that thought.
Elder Clinton had lived for so long specifically because his defense abilities were superior; that didn’t necessarily mean he could protect others as well.
At least, there were no signs of him every doing so before.
Realizing this, Leonard Churchill already had his hand on Light and Dark Holy Nail wrapped within the pouch on his waist.
The only method he could presently think of was to release the crying angel.
The danger was immense, however, with Elder Clinton present, there were chances of successful retrieval.
However, before he could complete the final step, a new scenario unfolded itself.
Suddenly, a melodious song echoed from not too far away.
Leonard Churchill was surprised. Why would someone be singing at a juncture like this?
Moreover, the song seemed to have a soothing lullaby-like melody which didn’t possess any murderous undertone?
Because her possessed body was too weak, forcibly casting this spell resulted in some white hairs on her temples.
But its power was not small!
The moment the card exploded, the entire Underground Palace was instantly filled with ghostly aura.
In front of “Vivian White”, a black hexagram array appeared, and countless evil spirits rushed out like they were escaping from a cage.
Although restricted by strength, what is called up by Spirit Communication are mostly low-tier evil ghosts.
Deal with opponents who attack physically in the field. It couldn’t be more appropriate.
...
Leonard Churchill looked at the group of ghosts attacking, his brows were also tightly furrowed.
His attack was almost completely ineffective.
Turning his face to look at Catherine Carter and Colin, the two were the same.
Although their sudden outburst just now was amazing, it was not enough to break the game.
The two people were torn and bitten by swarms of snakes and evil ghosts, and they were already critically injured in an instant.
If we don’t do something, I’m afraid we’ll be wiped out on the spot.
Upon seeing this, Leonard Church’s hand was already touching the Light and Dark Holy Nail, and he rushed over fiercely.
But before he can remind Elder Clinton of what he wants to do, he hears this old man with a worried face mumbling something, “Oh dear, Ghost Control Technique ... I think there is a way to deal with it...”
Just then, Colin rushed into the snake group, being bitten by the crowd, and was about to die.
Elder Clinton suddenly opened his mouth and shouted softly: “Thunder!”
In an instant, Leonard Churchill felt his divine soul tremble, as if he sensed an indescribable power of a divine demon coming.
Looking again, he was stunned by the sight before him.
A word is in accordance with the law.
This time, the tongue bursts into thunder.
In an instant, light snakes flashed, and the Palace was as bright as day.
Looking again, the dark clouds were swept away in one glance, and the ghosts in the sky instantly turned into ashes in the thunder.
The dramatic change in “Vivian White’s” face in the distance, her insight into this technique was the most among the several people in the palace.
But it’s because she understood it, that’s why she was filled with uncontainable fear.
It is unfortunate that her life had already stopped there.
When the spell was broken, her possessed body was also met with a backlash that was hard to resist.
This Seventh Patriarch of the White Family, who has been hidden for decades,
Instantly exploded and died.
Upon seeing this, the three of them, including Leonard Churchill, were also shocked.
They didn’t understand what had just happened, this old man simply uttered a word.
And then...
The enemy was dead?
