Chapter 469: Chapter 472: Ghost King Tide

“What’s going on?”

Everyone was stunned at the scene before them.

However.

Someone had already shouted out first:

“Xie Tiankuang, Mr. Ye has already driven you out. Where do you get the audacity to come back?”

Some were even prepared to drive them away again.

Qian Qiuxue’s face grew serious.

She noticed.

Xie Tiankuang and his people were already covered in wounds, looking incredibly battered and worn out. Especially Xie Tiankuang, whose expression was one of terror, as if he had been frightened by something.

Just as everyone was about to kick Xie Tiankuang and his crew out, Ye Qingchen also took notice of the commotion.

Seeing Ye Qingchen looking over, Xie Tiankuang frantically shouted out in panic:

“Mr. Ye, something terrible has happened, something terrible…”

“Let them in!”

Hearing this, Xie Tiankuang was overjoyed and hurriedly rushed into the valley to meet with Ye Qingchen once again.

It had only been a few days since they last met.

But Ye Qingchen seemed different once again, like a celestial god descended, instilling a raw fear deep in one’s heart. It was the fear mortals feel towards divine beings!

“Didn’t I tell you to get out of the valley before, who gave you the courage to come back?” Ye Qingchen stood there, speaking coldly.

Xie Tiankuang trembled at his words, revealing a smile more unsightly than tears, said: “Mr. Ye, we came back to report news. The Ghost King Tide has erupted in the secret realm, and we saw a massive horde of ghostly beings heading towards the valley here!”

“Ghost King Tide?”

Ye Qingchen frowned at these words.

Everyone else was also consumed by horror.

Wherever there are beast tides, there are ghost tides too.

Even though Xie Tiankuang and his men were no match for Ye Qingchen, he was still a top Supreme Celestial Saint, and the rest had also attained the status of Supreme Celestial Saint a century ago. A small ghost tide should naturally have been easy to quell…

Yet seeing Xie Tiankuang and his men so frightened suggested that this ghost tide was unlike any other.

“Xie Tiankuang, don’t spread panic. The secret realm has been peaceful for a hundred years, how could a Ghost King Tide erupt?” Someone shouted.

“What I said is true!” Xie Tiankuang was almost in tears, “As if all the ghosts of the secret realm have gathered… This Ghost King Tide encompasses the entire secret realm! I came to report the news…”

Ye Qingchen looked at him with an amused expression, “Oh? Aren’t you here seeking protection?”

Given Xie Tiankuang’s demeanor.

It was evident that he had likely already encountered this Ghost King Tide. Unable to withstand it, they fled here. After all, if even Xie Tiankuang himself can’t withstand it, then it’s up to him next.

Xie Tiankuang was taken aback, never expecting Ye Qingchen to discern his thoughts with just a glance, leaving him momentarily speechless.

“Enough, I’ll go and take a look at this Ghost King Tide myself!” Ye Qingchen stood tall.

He was bound to confront this Return to Heaven Valley Secret Realm sooner or later, and since this Ghost King Tide swept the whole secret realm, he couldn’t stay uninvolved within it. Perhaps, the appearance of this Ghost King Tide was somehow connected to the secret realm’s seal.

Meanwhile, some couldn’t contain themselves and ran out of the valley to verify the truth.

But.

As they stepped out of the valley, the scene before them left them completely stunned.

As the Yin Evil Qi from afar drew closer, Xie Tiankuang shuddered, his mouth agape, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Not only him, but the seven or eight Supreme Celestial Saints present were all struck as if by lightning, frozen in place. They felt an indescribable fear engulfing them, seeping into their souls, as if they were paralyzed, finding it incredibly difficult even to move a finger.

They saw.

Underneath the overwhelming Yin Evil Qi, there was a massive army composed of ghostly beings. Countless Yin Soul Fierce Ghosts poured incessantly from the horizon, vast and boundless, resembling a turbulent black tide.

The skies were filled with flapping Bone Demon Dragons, Netherworld Birds…

Their immense silhouettes were concealed within the Yin Evil Qi, visible only as massive figures, sometimes hundreds or thousands of feet long. Their blood-red eyes glinted ferociously through the Yin Evil Qi!

“This…”

“How could there be such a terrifying Ghost King Tide!”

“Is it possible that all ghostly beings in the secret realm have gathered together?”

Amidst gasps of shock, everyone’s faces turned grim.

Initially.

They hadn’t taken Xie Tiankuang’s words to heart, but confronted with the current scene, they realized the situation was hundreds of times more severe than they had imagined.

“Roar!”

Just as everyone was in shock, the Ghost King Tide already noticed the people outside the valley, and a roar of excitement suddenly erupted.

Then, within the Ghost King Tide, ghosts began to roar arrogantly. The thousands upon thousands of ghostly beings howled in unison, their terrifying voices enough to echo through the heavens and earth, transforming into rolling sonic waves, sweeping up terrifying gales.

Moreover, at the same time.

The Ghost King Tide surged up like a tremendous wave in a gale, ferociously sweeping towards the valley with a terrifying posture!

As if to engulf the entire world!

In this moment, everyone couldn’t help but show expressions of despair.

There were so many ghostly beings, enough to completely drown them all!

“How many times has the secret realm experienced such a Ghost King Tide?” Even Ye Qingchen couldn’t help but frown, turning to Qian Qiuxue beside him, he asked.

“Not a single time!” Qian Qiuxue smiled bitterly, “If there had been, we couldn’t have lived for a hundred years, not even one year, and these ghostly beings usually fight among themselves…”

As they spoke.

The Ghost King Tide was getting closer and closer.

“Let’s fight!”

Someone said with a bitter smile, drawing their long sword.

“Fight!”

The other Supreme Celestial Saints also drew their weapons.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

Almost simultaneously, the auras of over a hundred Supreme Celestial Saints, without any reservation, fully erupted at this moment, transformed into violent light streaks, sweeping towards where the Ghost King Tide was located.

“Roar!”

However.

Their response from the valley was a multitude of terrifying roars from the ghostly beings, coupled with a more ferocious assault. In their blood-red eyes, savage gleams shone fiercely. At this moment, black spiritual light streaks were sweeping towards everyone with murderous intent!

Looking from afar.

It was like two immense tides sweeping across the heavens and earth, swiftly traversing the void, then crashing fiercely into each other.

“Boom!”

Even though there were more than a hundred of them, and each was at the Celestial Saint Ninth Layer level, they now faced thousands upon thousands of endless ghostly beings.

Several Supreme Celestial Saints didn’t even have time to scream before being torn apart amidst the onslaught of countless ghostly beings.

More Supreme Celestial Saints were swept up by the savage wave of the Ghost King Tide, spitting blood and hurtling backward even faster than they came, crashing heavily onto the ground.

In almost a single encounter, the defensive line formed by the people outside the valley was utterly broken under the Ghost King Tide’s assault!

The ferocity of this Ghost King Tide was indeed unparalleled!

And yet, as if completely unaffected at all, the Ghost King Tide continued its rampage with even more ferocity. Even Qian Qiuxue, Xie Tiankuang and the others were completely in despair facing this tidal wave!

Watching the retreating people.

Ye Qingchen’s brow slightly furrowed, and at this moment, he boldly stepped out.

Clearly.

At this point, he could no longer hold back and made his move directly!
