Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 501-Chapter 600)

“Don’t you even think- You have a way out?”


Li Qingshan laughed aloud. “I do have a way out, but upon further thought, I think it’s more satisfying to retrieve it from your corpse!”

……

In the sea of blood, the Void-bellied Ghost King grabbed the last Corpse Commander and plunged it viciously into the blood. A while later, the sea of blood settled back down.

“May I ask who it is that has provided me with assistance? Please show yourself! The Umbral Yin sect will definitely show many thanks!”



The Dark Queen stowed the Ghost King away and gazed around. With how strange and powerful their methods were, the person must have been extraordinary, and they were actually able to suppress these undead. If she could recruit them for the Umbral Yin sect, they would definitely be of great use.

The landscape around her changed, and the sea of blood vanished. They had returned to the sky above Burial Mound mountain.

“Zi’er” suddenly looked back and frowned. Two figures appeared, one large and one small, one human and one skeleton, facing one another.

They had appeared, while the Corpse Commanders had vanished. Had they already killed the Corpse Commanders?

That was impossible!

The Dark Queen’s pupils dilated, reflecting a small skeleton. Its white bones shone with a glossy lustre, radiating with a holy light as its eye sockets burned with white fire.

Twenty-six prayer beads wrapped around its slender, left wrist as it clutched a long, fluttering, blood-red banner in its right hand.

Xiao An also stared at the beautiful woman before her, only inches apart.

“You…” The Dark Queen extended her hand. An indescribable feeling flowed through her heart. There was no reason or evidence, but from the moment she saw it, she knew that important object that she had lost many years ago had appeared before her again.

“Your highness, you’ve come out.” The Marquis of Ruyi was overjoyed.

“Master- Hmm? Li’l Whitey, you’ve grown bigger too!”

Xuanyue, who had been hiding in the sky with “Moon Concealment” the entire time, saw the Dark Queen appear and also showed herself before rushing over.

Li Qingshan saw Xiao An and became relieved. He smiled and wanted to say something, but he quickly thought of something, The Dark Queen… Xiao An… the Umbral Yin Ghost Control technique… South Hub city… Don’t tell me?

His expression suddenly changed. An invisible hand seemed to grip his throat. He was unable to utter a single word.

Gu Yanying glanced at Li Qingshan in astonishment, To think that there are also times when this man who’s unafraid of anything will be afraid. It’s for this little skeleton, so that Xiao An.

As she knew Li Qingshan’s identity, she obviously managed to guess the white skeleton was Xiao An. It was not just Li Qingshan. The Dark Queen’s behaviour was very strange too. Since when had this chilly, proud woman ever exhibited an expression like that?

In this region that the Hungry Ghost realm was about devour, three people completely forgot about their surroundings. They completely forgot about victory and defeat, life and death. All that remained was the people before them.

There was ravishing joy from finding what was previously lost, there was wavering dilemma, and there was the fear of loss.

Li Qingshan retreated and dodged it. The Dark Queen’s hand touched nothing.

Xiao An gazed at the Dark Queen as she constantly backed away. She silently murmured inside, Farewell, queen mother!

The pretty, familiar yet unfamiliar child overlapped with her before separating again. She turned around resolutely and flew towards Li Qingshan, throwing herself into his arms and embracing him firmly.

Li Qingshan was overjoyed. He grinned from ear to ear, smiling like a child. Sensing the emotional turmoil in Xiao An’s heart, he rubbed her head and said, “Let’s go for a great battle!”

Xiao An broke free from Li Qingshan’s embrace and waved her arm. The twenty-six Skull Prayer Beads scattered and landed within the sea of corpses.

Wielding the white bone sword, Xiao An leapt down.

“Stop it!”



“Zi’er” experienced a great sense of danger and ordered loudly. Several dozen Corpse Commanders abandoned their opponents and flew over, charging towards Xiao An.

Li Qingshan lifted his arm, bringing it in front of Gu Yanying who wanted to help out. “Get the Dark Queen to prepare for sealing off the Gate of Hungry Ghosts! We’ll press forward into the enemy’s den!”

What? Gu Yanying was utterly shocked. Was she supposed to fend off several million Corpse Soldiers, as well as so many Corpse Generals and Commanders, alone?

The group of Corpse Commanders arrived with surging corpse qi. With a wave of the Blood Sea Banner, they all vanished into thin air, and their corpse qi dispersed.

She could not kill them all, but keeping them trapped for a while was no problem.

When the Blood Sea Banner had first been refined, it was in its weakest form. Through constant battle and devouring enemies, the Blood Sea Banner had become more and more powerful. After reducing the Corpse Commanders who encircled the Dark Queen to blood, the Blood Sea Banner had never been so powerful before.

These Corpse Commanders had very tough bodies and their corpse qi was powerful. They could even lead Corpse Generals and Corpse Soldiers to strengthen themselves.

However, that was it. They were not capable of anything else. They did not have the powerful innate abilities of daemons, nor did they have the flexible techniques of humans. As a result, breaching the Blood Sea Banner became very difficult.

Xiao An descended from above. The Blood Sea Banner stretched over three hundred meters long, dancing about like a blood dragon as it silently devoured the sea of corpses.

Thousands, tens of thousand, hundreds of thousand!

The Corpse Generals and Corpse Commanders could still fend off the sea of blood, but these Corpse Soldiers clearly lacked the ability. They were reduced to blood as soon as they entered the sea of blood, strengthening the Blood Sea Banner’s powers.

The skeletons they left behind floating in the sea of blood. They were much more powerful than the white bones regular people left behind in the very beginning. Within the sea of blood hid a sea of bones that constantly lunged and mauled at the Corpse Commanders.

The Skeleton Demons that had scattered did not stand around idly either. They opened their huge, vicious, teeth-ridden mouths and spat out gushing flames.

Thousands of Corpse Generals led an army several million strong to surround these Skeleton Demons. They all fell into military formations as corpse qi condensed into vicious monsters in the air. Terrifying weapons were swung at the Skeleton Demons.

The corpse qi on Corpse Soldiers had always been much thinner. The Corpse Generals had mobilised their corpse qi to unleash various attacks, which made the Corpse Soldiers lose their final layer of protection.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Wherever the Samādhi Flames of White Bone went, they were like sparks that landed in a pot of oil. A great blaze rushed into the air and spread rapidly, reaching an unstoppable size in the blink of an eye.

Burning in the Samādhi Flames of White Bone, the Corpse Soldiers became a part of the flames one by one, stoking the fire.

The Samādhi Flames of White Bone turned into great swathes of fire clouds, surging through the air while spitting out thousands of tongues of flames like colossal, constantly-transforming beasts, licking the sea of corpses on the ground.

Having lost their subordinates, the Corpse Generals could only circulate their corpse qi and hold on for dear life in the sea of fire. But at most, they would only last a little longer in the sea of fire.

Under the violent surging of Samādhi Flames of White Bone, their protective corpse qi collapsed and was torn apart very soon, reduced to great torches of fire.

The entire world was burning!
