The two underworld elders exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
The ghost-clawed old woman was calculating something with her withered fingers, her brows furrowed even more: “Before the soul lamp went out, the energy fluctuations showed that they collided with a very strange force near the Blood Shadow Palace, and then disappeared completely.”
“Blood Shadow Palace?” The Great Elder’s pupils narrowed. “I know the strength of the Blood Shadow Palace. How could they possibly have someone capable of eliminating the Five Ghosts?”
The Lord of Sinking Soul licked his chapped lips, his voice hoarse: “Whoever it is, the token must be taken back! Elder, do you know anything about the other party?”
“I don’t know anything!”
The old man slammed his fist onto the stone table, cracks spreading all the way to its corners. “Ghost Face didn’t even send a telepathic plea for help, which shows how sudden his death was.”
“Now we can only rely on the two of you, elders, to lead the ‘Shadow Guards of the Underworld’ to thoroughly investigate the Three Heavens, and find the token even if it means digging three feet deep into the ground!”
Ghost Claw Granny chuckled sinisterly, and the Soul Bead on her fingertip suddenly flashed with a burst of red light: “Don’t worry, anything that has been tainted by Ghost Face’s aura cannot escape the tracking of my ‘Ten Thousand Soul Lock’, but” She paused, her gaze sweeping across the Great Elder, “if the token is hidden and loses its aura, even us”
“Enough of this nonsense!”
The elder interrupted sharply, “If we don’t find the token, all three of us will die! Remember, we must find it dead or alive, and the token must be returned intact!”
Two underworld elders led a hundred underworld shadow guards, charging into the Blood Shadow like a black tide.
The place was already a mess, with corpses strewn everywhere, including several naked female corpses lying around, which made the Lord of Drowned Souls lick his lips.
The Ghost Claw Granny stared coldly at the Drowned Soul Lord, which made the man startled and look away!
Standing in front of a patch of scorched earth, the withered Ghost Claw pointed at a three-foot deep claw mark on the ground: “Judging from this claw mark, this is the Gluttonous Ghost Beast’s’Underworld Earth Splitting Claw’, but its counterattack power”
He bent down and picked up a handful of scorched earth. The soul bead in his palm suddenly spun wildly, emitting cracking sounds.
“What is it?”
The Lord of Drowned Souls stepped forward, thrusting his chain sickle into the ground, and countless souls immediately emerged from the earth, howling and pointing in all directions.
“His aura has disappeared!”
Ghost Claw Granny crushed the Soul Pearl, her face ashen. “This isn’t just an ordinary soul annihilation; this is the complete absorption of even the remnants of spiritual consciousness and energy fluctuations! It’s like being swallowed alive by something, without leaving a single piece of bone behind!”
“What exactly is so powerful? Could it be that the five ghosts were devoured by their own greedy ghost creatures?”
Drowning Soul Lord frowned and asked in confusion.
