“Help!”

Ling Zhen screamed in terror as he frantically retreated.

Fear filled his heart and mind. He was unable to unleash his full strength. It was as if he had become an ordinary person.

This was one of the characteristics of ghosts. They were terrifying!

Those who did not have a strong will were easily disturbed, and they would be unable to unleash their full strength.

Boom!

At this moment, a fist came crashing over. The scorching fist pushed the red-dressed woman back, and the ghostly qi dissipated.

The person who came was dressed in white and had a cold expression. He frowned as he looked at Ling Zhen.

“Big Brother, quickly kill her, quickly kill her!”

Ling Zhen found his savior and was ecstatic. He hid behind the white-dressed man and shouted.

The red-dressed woman’s expression was dark and cold. She gritted her teeth as she looked at the white-dressed man and said, “Ling Baiyun, are you going to protect him?”

“You may be able to protect him now, but you can’t protect him forever!”

Ling Baiyun frowned and said, “Why did you become a ghost? I’m very curious about ghosts. Why don’t you come with me?”

“Heh, Ling Baiyun, I’m a malicious ghost. I’m here to claim his life. I advise you to mind your own business. My ghost race is not to be trifled with.”

The woman in red was very afraid of Ling Baiyun.

“I don’t know if they are to be trifled with or not, but you all have already alarmed the entire Northern Zone. Very soon, experts will arrive. I think they are all very interested in ghosts.”

Ling Baiyun smiled and looked at the black-clothed man who was confronting the Heaven realm expert who was guarding the checkpoint. He then asked, “That’s someone from the Yu family, right?”

“Is your ghost race related to Chu Pingfan?”

When he mentioned Chu Pingfan, Ling Baiyun’s expression became unsightly.

At this moment, a figure appeared and said, “I’ll hold him back while you kill him.”

You’er!

“Senluo Ghost Domain!”

You’er made her move and kept Ling Baiyun at bay. The battle was extremely intense and You’er was actually unable to gain an advantage against him in combat.

The red-dressed woman made her move and attacked Ling Zhen.

Not long after, the red-dressed woman possessed Ling Zhen and started moving him away. You’er also prepared to retreat.

“Where do you think you’re going?!”

Ling Baiyun’s fist intent suddenly surged, and his qi and blood essence surged. A scorching aura swept out in all directions, and You’er’s expression changed slightly.

Such scorching Yang aura suppressed the ghost race’s Yin aura. If she was to fight him head-on, she would definitely be at a disadvantage.

Chu Xuan looked at the situation in the Eastern Region’s checkpoint and quickly figured out what had happened.

You’er had transformed some divine souls into ghosts in the Eastern Region.

Among them, this red-clothed female ghost had been persecuted by Ling Zhen. Back then, in order to preserve her innocence, she had self-destructed, destroying her physical body. Her divine soul had been severely injured as she fled.

At that time, the ghost race had already made a name for themselves in the Eastern Region. Moreover, many people had heard of the possibility of transforming their divine souls into ghosts, which would give them an opportunity to take revenge on those that killed them.

Thus, she had left saying, “Even if I become a ghost, I won’t let you off.” Her divine soul then fled.

Coincidentally, she had met You’er, who had transformed her into a ghost by allowing her to cultivate the ghost race’s cultivation technique.

Moreover, the red-clothed female ghost was very talented. After turning into a ghost, her strength increased rapidly.

Tonight, You’er had brought the ghost race back to the Southern Region and was also helping the red-clothed female ghost to take revenge. Thus, the matter of a hundred ghosts challenging the checkpoint occured.

However, if the current situation continued to develop, there would be experts arriving very soon.

Given You’er and the other ghosts’ limited strength, the outcome of such a development was likely to be terrible.

They had the upper hand now because of the surprise attack, and the fact that cultivators were unfamiliar with ghosts. Coupled with their natural ability to incite fear and horror, they had gained a temporary advantage.

The Heaven realm expert was being held back by someone else.

That black-clothed man was undoubtedly a powerful expert of the Yu family.

Yu Beibei was constantly hanging around Chu Pingfan, which the Yu family was happy to see. If they could forge a good relationship with such a monster, the Yu family would have nothing to worry about in the future.

Chu Xuan waved his hand, and Ghost King Fengdu and the two Heaven realm ghost experts appeared.

“Go and bring You’er back.”

“Yes!”

Ghost King carried the Ghost King Seal with him and left with the two Heaven realm ghost experts in an instant.

Since the ghost race had made their appearance, it was time for them to show their strength.

At the Eastern Region’s checkpoint, Ling Zhen was continuously letting out shrill screams. You’er retreated while fighting. However, as the cultivators at the checkpoint regained their senses, they calmed their minds and began to counterattack.

Soon, the ghosts fell into a disadvantaged state.

In the distance, they could sense the arrival of a Heaven realm expert.

The Yu family’s expert was anxious. He could not hold on any longer and had to escape.

You’er was also anxious.

She had to call for help.

At this moment, the aura of two powerful ghosts swept through the checkpoint, shocking all of the cultivators.

Boom!

Ling Baiyun retreated frantically.

The Yu family’s Heaven realm expert retreated as soon as he saw the ghost race’s experts arrive.

Two ferocious ghosts, which were more than ten meters tall, instantly descended upon the checkpoint. Their Heaven realm aura was displayed for all to see.

Boom!

One of them raised his hand and struck, directly suppressing the Heaven realm expert who was guarding the checkpoint.

In the distance, a powerful Heaven realm warrior rushed over.

The Ghost King did not make a move.

He was a Divine realm expert, so it was not suitable for him to make a move at the moment. Otherwise, it might trigger a chain reaction.

Unless the human race brought along their own Divine realm existence, he would not make a move.

“We are the ghost race. Anyone who dies unjustly and whose divine soul is not destroyed can join our ghost race and transform into a ghost to take revenge!”

A terrifying ghostly voice spread out in all directions.

Some itinerant cultivators clenched their fists. Transforming into ghosts?

As long as their divine soul was not destroyed, they could turn into ghosts and have the chance to take revenge!

This was undoubtedly a way out when faced with despair.

Generally speaking, when the body collapsed, even if the divine soul was not destroyed, it was almost impossible to rise up again.

One could either take over a weaker body or hide somewhere to survive.

Those who could not take over the body of a cultivator had to make do with ordinary people, and would thus live shortened lives. It was almost impossible to take revenge in such a situation.

Not to mention that natural treasures that would allow them to recover their bodies were scarce.

Now that they could turn into ghosts, there was no doubt that they had another way out.

After the human Heaven realm experts fought with the ghost race’s Heaven realm experts for a short time, they stopped fighting.

The ghost race left.

They turned into a wisp of cold wind and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

They came and went without a trace.

Chu Xuan had been paying attention to the situation. The reason why he asked the Ghost King to go was to guard against the possible appearance of a Divine realm expert.

In the end, no Divine realm expert appeared despite the huge commotion.

Could it be that the Northern Zone did not have a Divine realm expert?

There was no reason for them not to at least be curious about this new race, right?

Or did they hold back because the ghost race led by You’er was formed from the souls of human cultivators?

The Ghost King had returned, and the ghost race had added more than a hundred members to their ranks.

Although they were transformed after birth, they still belonged to the ghost race.

Their level of talent might be much worse than the Netherworld race members who had transformed into ghosts, but there were still one or two talented ones.

For example, the red-clothed female ghost.

Ling Zhen was dead!

His soul was restrained by the red-clothed female ghost, and it was torturing him and devouring him bit by bit.

The Ghost King brought all the members of the ghost race back to the Fengdu Secret Realm to teach them more ghost race techniques and strengthen them.

“Grandfather, I’m back.”

You’er stood in front of Chu Xuan, looking very obedient.

Chu Xuan raised his hand to pat her head and said, “You’er did a good job adding new members to the ghost race!”

He had not doted on You’er for nothing!

He would make her the Holy Maiden of the ghost race, and place her in charge of the ghost race in the future.

In terms of talent and potential, You’er was much more capable than the Fengdu Ghost King.
