Chapter 1026: Skeletal Robe, The Gates of Ghosts Wide Open!

Editor: Henyee Translations

With the Mahayana Daolords striking fiercely, a single clash was enough to send tremors throughout half of the immortal cave abode. Other cultivators exploring within the cave were astonished by the disturbance, a testament to the terrifying force only Mahayana Daolords could muster.

The area was instantly torn apart by the confrontation between Qin Shenwu and Daolord Skeleton, a massive spatial rift explosively tearing open, from which chaos energy surged forth.

“Do not presume that becoming a Daolord makes you my equal, Qin Shenwu. Today, you will learn the vast distance between heaven and earth!” Daolord Skeleton stood, hands behind his back amidst a vision of accumulating bones, pointing at Qin Shenwu and shouting angrily.

As the battle commenced, the earlier slyness and madness vanished from his face, replaced by the domineering confidence characteristic of a Mahayana Daolord.

Despite nearing the twilight of their power, they had emerged from billions of cultivators to stand at the pinnacle.

The term “genius” was insufficient to describe their past; true Mahayana Daolords are entities that suppress their era’s so-called geniuses.

Daolord Skeleton’s Mahayana Dao rule of deathly stillness manifested, a spectral pathway paved with bones stretching out from him in an instant.

Within this crimson path, countless deceased, their bones strewn like wild grass. Among them were giant carcasses, their eyes burning with gray-white flames, as if choosing their next victim, an utterly chilling sight.

This was the divine power of Daolord Skeleton, the Path of Bones. Every enemy he killed became nourishment for his power, turning into his puppets and contributing to his combat strength.

This included not only humans but countless beasts and divine creatures, each retaining the strength from their lives, which constituted a superpower army.

“Skeletal robe!”

With an ancient wave towards the Path of Bones, Daolord Skeleton summoned several bone segments imbued with terrifying power. They interlocked and transformed into a battle robe made of bones.

The head of the robe resembled a bird, while other parts were made from the bones of powerful beings.

With the skeletal robe adorned, Daolord Skeleton’s aura broke through to new heights, subtly surpassing Qin Shenwu.

The next moment, the sky filled with bones emitted a terrifying roar as they charged along with Daolord Skeleton, sweeping across like a collapsing sky.

Qin Shenwu’s expression grew solemn as the power unleashed by Daolord Skeleton exceeded his expectations. Yet, he remained fearless, his Five Elements Dao rule erupting suddenly.

Five-colored Dao powers surged into the sky, and five colossus figures, akin to stars, stretched across the void, crashing into the Path of Bones.

In this clash, the two Mahayana Daolords unleashed their peak powers without holding back. The violent collision caused the void to fracture inch by inch, and chaos energy exploded.

Qin Shenwu and Daolord Skeleton’s fierce exchange instantly submerged an entire area in chaos energy, the Mahayana Dao powers forming a terrifying storm.

Such a confrontation was beyond even other Mahayana Daolords’ ability to intervene.

Thus, the other present Mahayana Daolord, Daolord Phantom Ghost, turned his aggressive focus towards Jiang Chengxuan and the others.

A Mahayana-level attack pressed down towards Jiang Chengxuan and his companions.

In the covering Ghostly Inferno, Daolord Phantom Ghost wielded the arcane treasure, the Ghostly Banner, controlling tens of thousands of specters and evil spirits that breached the void like a tide of corpses, devouring everything in their path.

These specters, grotesque and covered in decaying Dao rule, merely their sight could intimidate an enemy’s soul.

A chill inexplicably rose in the hearts of Xie Xiangyao and Zhao Tianfan, even Shen Ruyan felt a coldness on her skin.

Only Jiang Chengxuan, protected by the Vast Heaven Divine Jade, ignored this influence. The next moment, he activated the power of the Vast Heaven Divine Jade to dispel the abnormalities affecting Shen Ruyan and others.

However, within that brief moment, Daolord Phantom Ghost’s deadly move had already reached them.

Wielding the Ghostly Banner, Daolord Phantom Ghost chose Jiang Chengxuan, standing at the forefront, as his first target. As the Dao rule manifested, the Ghostly Banner swelled in the wind, thrusting forward with terrifying force towards Jiang Chengxuan.

Jiang Chengxuan’s figure was instantly engulfed in the Ghostly Storm, surrounded by lingering spirits.

Simultaneously, the terrifying power of a Mahayana Daolord pressed down.

This single strike was as formidable as the Seven Kills Array previously faced.

This was Jiang Chengxuan’s first direct confrontation with a Mahayana Daolord enemy. Despite having gained numerous opportunities and feeling confident against any Daolord, the challenge was immense.

“Deep Earth Halberd, arise!”

Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes shone with resolve, and his heart was undaunted. He invoked the Five Elements Diagram, from which the Deep Earth Halberd materialized.

With a mighty swing, the shadow of a dragon-elephant roared forth, and the halberd, like a streaming galaxy, was grasped firmly in Jiang Chengxuan’s hand and swept across.

On one side was the Ghostly Hell, and on the other, a galaxy of stars.

Jiang Chengxuan’s unleashed power now bordered on a Mahayana Daolord’s realm.

The terrifying forces clashed in the void, resulting in an explosive detonation that resonated between heaven and earth. The void cracked open, creating deep abysses.

This exchange between Daolord Phantom Ghost and Jiang Chengxuan surprisingly appeared evenly matched, causing Daolord Phantom Ghost to marvel internally.

This young man, merely at the peak of Dao Mastery, was able to contend with him to this extent.

Instantly, the thought that this young man must not be allowed to survive flashed through Daolord Phantom Ghost’s mind.

“Very well! Let’s see how long you can withstand!” With that, Daolord Phantom Ghost no longer held back, unleashing infinite Dao rule from the Ghostly Banner.

A path of the underworld, the Yellow Springs Road, materialized instantly in the void. It was populated by countless bizarre and terrifying spectral entities, each as tall as the sky, with an evil and sinister presence.

“The Gates of Ghosts open wide!”

At the command of Daolord Phantom Ghost, the path of the Yellow Springs solidified, and endless ghostly energy poured down from the sky like a deluge.

Countless terrifying ghostly hands reached out from the Yellow Springs, with blood-red eyes lurking and observing Jiang Chengxuan and his allies. In the next moment, the underworld connected completely with the mortal realm, and numerous evil spirits fell through.

“Cackle, cackle, cackle!”

These malevolent spirits and ghosts seemed endless, crushing and even devouring each other. They laughed maniacally as they traversed the void, charging towards Jiang Chengxuan and his companions.

In just a few breaths, the endless spirits had thoroughly encircled Jiang Chengxuan and his group, plunging the situation into dire peril.

Shen Ruyan, Xie Xiangyao, and the others, faced with the onslaught of these evil spirits, quickly summoned their own spiritual treasures and manifested their Dao rules.

A fierce battle erupted in moments.
