Chapter 542: Lifting the Seal

Now, there is only one enemy left.

In this place where Zhang Mu is, there is also Blood Vine.

Standing side by side, they silently watched the ghost general opposite.

The current Blood Vine also has the power close to the later stage of the fourth rank, all of which was shared by Zhang Mu.

However, the energy of the era is unique. In other words, the tattoos are only on Zhang Mu, there is only one Duwang River, and there is only one Lycoris radiata, so he cannot gain the time power blessing of Queen Vaidehi.

But when the two work together to deal with ghosts who are at the same level of the early fourth rank or even weaker, they will only show absolute dominance.

Finally, the ghost general spoke.

“What is your relationship with the Netherworld, and why do you have the power to resist the invasion of the Holy River?”

Zhang Mu looked at the person and horse in front of him and said slowly, “I don’t want to be your enemy, and this battlefield has nothing to do with you. Where you came from, just go back there.”

The ghost general stared at Zhang Mu for a while, then suddenly smiled. From the perspective of others, his smile looked like convulsions, making his crying face even more unsightly when laughing.

“No one has said these words to me for a long time. I have traveled through different dimensions, under my Undead Legion’s iron riders, you native people can only shiver in fear. When I decide to return, then I will return.

But, from your tone, it seems like you are threatening me, is that so?”

Zhang Mu’s expression was very calm now, and he simply replied with two words.

“Yes.”

The ghost tugged on the Ghostly Colt’s reins made of ghostly energy around its neck, calming down and said, “Although I can sense that your aura has greatly increased, is this the reason you want to confront me head-on?”

Zhang Mu still only answered with those two words.

“Yes.”

Sensing Zhang Mu’s seriousness, the ghost’s voice trembled slightly, sounding somewhat excited.

“Now, with you holding possibly the most precious Innate Spiritual Treasure and Acquired Spiritual Treasure of this dimension, it seems worth it for me to take action.”

Innate Spiritual Treasure is Blood Vine, Acquired Spiritual Treasure is the Corpse Poison Bead controlled by Zhang Mu using mental power to float in the air. If that’s the case, it really gives the ghost general a reason to take action.

But what exactly is the ghost general’s trump card?

Zhang Mu has no way of knowing, but no matter what it is, he can only face it together with Blood Vine.

The Netherworld ghost general held the Crescent Moon Blade horizontally in his hand, the blade emitting black energy, continuously flowing towards him, drilling into his body.

Zhang Mu and Blood Vine immediately realized something was wrong, and rushed up hoping to interrupt his actions, but even Zhang Mu’s time-space power failed.

The ghostly aura spread everywhere, lively swirling around the ghost general, then all absorbed by him, emitting a relaxed low hum from his throat.

What is he doing?

This question popped into Zhang Mu and Blood Vine’s heads at the same time, but the ghost general gave them the answer the next second, making both of them feel chills down their spines.

“You should know that my current strength is due to being suppressed by this low-level plane, but not stripped away from me.”

I sealed away my powers so that I can stay as long as I want in this lower-level dimension.

As for those powers, I sealed them in my sword.”

Are all these ghostly powers from the ghost general?

After the baptism of Lycoris radiata, this is the first time Zhang Mu showed a shocked expression.

Since the ghost general said he sealed these powers to avoid being rejected by the dimension, isn’t he afraid of being completely kicked out now that he’s releasing them?

It seemed like the ghost general understood Zhang Mu’s thoughts and patiently answered them, as if it was a last kindness to the condemned, trying to make them understand before bringing them back to the ghost realm.

“Exceeding the limits of this dimension’s power will naturally lead to rejection, but as long as I don’t reveal my full strength, this rejection is mild. With the power I released now, killing you and taking Death Phoenix back will be a bit tiring, but I have plenty of time.”

The flow of ghostly energy stopped, and in Zhang Mu’s eyes, it meant that the ghost general’s true power had not fully been unleashed.

However, his power already surpassed both of them!

Fourth-rank late stage!

The Ghost General from the Netherworld stretched his body and whispered, “The repulsion force of this dimension is quite uncomfortable. Just at the fourth-rank late stage, it has exceeded the limit.”

Just at the fourth-rank late stage?

Zhang Mu and the Blood Vine immediately became nervous. They were just one step away from reaching the fourth-rank late stage, but that one step seemed impossible to overcome.

What does this step in their natural path truly mean, especially for Zhang Mu? He had not reached the fourth-rank late stage even after many years in the future world. He had a deep shadow and understood the difference between the early and late stages of the fourth rank.

This Ghost General could actually elevate his power to the fourth-rank late stage, and it wasn’t even his full strength.

So, is his full power at the peak of the fourth rank?

Blood Vine realized this and gasped. He quietly informed Zhang Mu, “Our domain is the Realm of Bloodwood. I will link our domain’s powers together later, which should be able to block his attacks. As long as we hold on until he is completely repelled from this dimension, we will win.”

The Dragging Word Technique?

That’s the only way to do it now.

Guided by the power of Bloodvine, Zhang Mu and his shared Realm of Bloodwood suddenly opened up. It was twice as big as when Bloodvine released it alone before, and with Zhang Mu joining, the coverage seemed to double. The strength and stability of the realm also greatly increased.

“The essence of the Realm of Bloodwood lies in regeneration, so we take turns releasing energy to defend against his attacks.”

Zhang Mu nodded in agreement, feeling eager for the first time to possess the power of the realm.

This is a realm!

In future generations, he had never possessed it. Without this talent, he wouldn’t be able to advance in rank. He, who had always been isolated from the special ability of realms, now experienced the wonder of this power.

However, the ghost general seemed unwilling to let him continue to enjoy the beauty of the new power. Riding Ghostly Colt, he charged towards the united Realm of Bloodwood where Zhang Mu and the others were.

Ghostly Colt seemed to sense the power transmitted by its master, and its body was engulfed in black flames.

Empowered by the strength of a fourth-rank late-stage ghost general, Ghostly Colt stomped down heavily on its hooves wreathed in ghostly flames.

Boom!

The entire Realm of Bloodwood was trembling!
