Chapter 1013

Bone Tower

“You’re alive?” blurted Gui Buyu.

“Well, you’re still alive,” Mu Yu dismissively responded, not telling them Wood Spirit saved him from corrosion.

Gui Buyu urged, “Ghost Anc-”

“Quiet!” scolded Ghost Ancestor, startling everyone despite his voice sounding weaker than before.

Gui Buyu brooded, Why does Ghost Ancestor sound spent? He is an Apotheosis Realm adept, yet Mu Yu has worn him out?

“Your Ghost Ancestor is just bluffing. If he could use his full power, he would already be standing akimbo and gloating,” Mu Yu pointed out.

“Once I break free, I will turn you inside out!”

Elbow raised due to the response received, Mu Yu replied, “Free or not free, I’ll bury your hope along with you since you’re at my mercy!”

Though he said that, Mu Yu did not harbour any hopes of killing Ghost Ancestor. Would they have imprisoned him if they could kill him? At this point, it was obvious that Ghost Gate made it their forbidden zone to protect him until they could release him. From Mu Yu’s point of view, he needed to sabotage their intentions.

Why do the souls’ cries sound like systemic sound waves? The ghost flames absorbing the sounds are growing more solid with each sound they absorb and drip onto the ground as blood droplets... Is it just me, or is the more harrowing the cries, the faster the blood droplets drift along the cracks? What am I supposed to make of this?

The droplets of blood assembled at the centre of the bone tower’s mouth for the tower to absorb. The tower would then release ghost flames back into the air, and the souls would resume crying. The flesh-winged horny monsters would pour a ladle of water once the souls were sundered from the torture to repeat the process.

A middle-aged man’s soul broke free of its shackles to run to the window upon seeing Mu Yu. As he tried to squeeze out of the small opening that an energy source barricaded, he pleaded, “Please destroy us. Please fr-”

A chain pulled him back and then ripped him in half.
