(There was a mistake with a name at the end of the previous chapter, those transferred by Wang Xiaoqiang to the Immortal River Maze were Xia Xueyan, Xi Yuerong, and Yus Ziman. Just to correct that.)

It was already night.

In the sky, a crescent moon displayed a strange red color, resembling a blood moon.

Wang Xiaoqiang flew rapidly, and from afar, he heard the sounds of shouting, screams of agony, and the crashing of Immortal Sword Treasures coming from the direction of Medicine God Valley.

When he arrived over Medicine God Valley, he found it embroiled in chaotic battle.

Countless ghost soldiers and ghost generals were fiercely clashing with the disciples of Medicine God Valley.

From the number of ghost soldiers, it was clear that there were more than during the previous invasion, seemingly mobilizing all the forces of the Myriad Ghost Sect.

Moreover, this time, under the leadership of the ghost generals, the ghost soldiers swarmed forward, wielding their magic treasures, striking and killing the disciples of Medicine God Valley with extreme ferocity.

The battle had been ongoing for who knows how long, and layers upon layers of corpses laid on the ground, mostly those of Medicine God Valley disciples, along with some ghost soldiers.

Wang Xiaoqiang didn't care about those disciples, he was only concerned about the life and death of his woman, Huan Qingyi.

Wang Xiaoqiang's Divine Sense swiftly scanned the battleground below,

and soon enough, he spotted Huan Qingyi,

She was, under the protection of six elders of Medicine God Valley, retreating hastily while ten vicious-looking figures chased after her.

These ten individuals were none other than the famous Top Ten Ghost Dao Masters of the Cultivation Realm.

The Myriad Ghost Ancestor was one of these ten masters.

Last time, Huan Qingyi had sacrificed her charm to kill an avatar of the Myriad Ghost Ancestor,

and the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, harboring a deep hatred for Huan Qingyi, was bent on seeking revenge,

However, forming another avatar would take at least a year.

A year was too long, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor couldn't wait.

Thus, he offered a hefty reward, teamed up with the other nine Ghost Dao masters, and mobilized all the ghost soldiers of the Myriad Ghost Sect to launch this assault, vowing to annihilate Medicine God Valley and slaughter Huan Qingyi as revenge.

Wang Xiaoqiang noticed that the other nine masters looked quite similar to the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, all fearsome and more terrifying than ghost monsters, and their strength was almost on par with the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, all incredibly powerful.

One Myriad Ghost Ancestor was already too much for Huan Qingyi to handle, now with nine equally powerful foes, she had no choice but to flee.

"Puff!"

An elder in the True Immortal Realm Third Stage, attempting to protect Huan Qingyi, was struck in the chest by a ghost head hammer thrown by a Ghost Dao master, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground, dead.

For a high-level master in the True Immortal Realm to be killed by a single blow showed just how powerful that Ghost Dao master was.

Wang Xiaoqiang watched intently and saw that the Ghost Dao master was a short, stout man wielding double hammers, engraved with a skull pattern.

After killing an elder with a hammer, the Ghost Dao master, pointing at Huan Qingyi, laughed triumphantly, "Hahaha... Beauty, it's your turn now, take my hammer!"

Saying this, he swung his ghost head hammer at Huan Qingyi.

Just as the hammer was swung, there was a loud bang, as it was struck aside by a Gang Qi arrow.

The Top Ten Ghost Dao Masters were all taken aback by this, then looked up to see a young man hovering in the sky, holding a bow and arrow.

Huan Qingyi and the other five elders also looked up to see that it was Wang Xiaoqiang who had arrived, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wang—Xiao—Qiang..." The Myriad Ghost Ancestor gritted his teeth, pointing at Wang Xiaoqiang and roared furiously, "You've finally shown yourself, prepare to die!"

Saying this, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor soared up like an eagle, enveloped in a fierce aura, and pounced toward Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang, holding his bow, fired an arrow at the incoming figure of the Myriad Ghost.

Whoosh!

The Gang Qi arrow shattered the air, shooting towards the Myriad Ghost Ancestor.

The pupils of the Myriad Ghost Ancestor contracted to pinpoints, and he split his hands apart, instantly manifesting the Skull Artifact from his hands, its eyes shooting out a strange red light to meet the incoming arrow.

Whoosh whoosh!

Bang!

The Gang Qi arrow was shattered by the strange red light and dissipated into nothingness.

"Hmph!" The Myriad Ghost Ancestor snorted coldly, pushed both hands forward, and the Skull Artifact charged towards Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang's will moved, and he summoned the Patterned Beast.

After the Patterned Beast flew out, it positioned itself in front of Wang Xiaoqiang and faced the flying Skull Artifact, letting out a massive roar from its mouth.

"Roar!!"

A loud sound echoed, causing the Skull Artifact to momentarily pause.

The Skull, now immobile, opened its mouth and spat out a Phosphorescent Fireball towards the Patterned Beast.

The Patterned Beast opened its mouth and emitted a flame that seemed almost tangible.

With a whoosh, as the two attacks collided, with a bang, the flame from the Patterned Beast incinerated the Phosphorescent Fireball.

...

Wang Xiaoqiang, having no intention to tangle with the Myriad Ghost Ancestor, saw that the Patterned Beast had blocked the opponent's Skull Artifact and flew towards Huan Qingyi.

Upon seeing this, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor immediately intervened, lunged forward, and, with his hands filled with Corpse Qi, reached out to grab Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang sneered coldly and struck with his right hand, aiming at the Myriad Ghost Ancestor.

With a crack, lightning from his palm struck the Myriad Ghost Ancestor.

The Myriad Ghost Ancestor couldn't dodge and, in a desperate attempt to attack, was hit by the lightning. And even as the lightning struck him, his hands, shrouded in Corpse Qi, also landed on Wang Xiaoqiang.

Protected by Armor, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor wasn't harmed by Wang Xiaoqiang's Thunderclap Annihilation Palm, but the ferocious ghost faces on the armor were singed by the lightning, emitting strange cries.

The Myriad Ghost Ancestor stared intently at Wang Xiaoqiang, trying to see the extent of the damage his two palms had inflicted on Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang, appearing unharmed, flew next to Huan Qingyi.

"What? How is that possible? My palms were fully powered, and the Corpse Qi was incredibly dense. How, how could he be completely unharmed?"

The Myriad Ghost Ancestor murmured in shock, unaware that Wang Xiaoqiang was wearing Spirit Silkworm Treasure Robe, which resisted his palm power, plus Wang Xiaoqiang was a Second Layer of Blood Realm Body Refining Master, unlikely to be harmed by his palm power, and moreover, his body had Fire Element Spiritual Energy to completely neutralize the infiltrating Corpse Qi.

"Qingyi, you finally came," Huan Qingyi said, greatly relieved to see Wang Xiaoqiang arrive.

"Qingyi, this way…" Wang Xiaoqiang embraced Huan Qingyi's slender waist and whispered into her ear.

After listening, Huan Qingyi nodded and said, "That would be excellent!"

Seeing Huan Qingyi agree with his suggestion, Wang Xiaoqiang held her hand and flew into the sky.

The top ten Ghost Dao masters were just about to fly up and pursue when they were entangled by five elders from the Medicine God Valley.

An elder embodies the foundation of a sect; these elders usually focus on their quiet cultivation and rarely appear, but during a sect's crisis, they all emerge from their seclusion, showing the true depth of a sect's resources.

High in the sky, Huan Qingyi took a deep breath, channeling her energy to her Dantian, and with force amplified her voice, shouting to those below, "All disciples of Medicine God Valley, heed my command, immediately disengage and flee to the Immortal River…"

Her booming voice spread; the struggling crowds of Medicine God Valley, hearing it, looked up and saw it was an order from their Valley Master and immediately abandoned their fights and fled towards the Immortal River.

Sensing that Huan Qingyi was leading her people to escape to the Immortal River, the Myriad Ghost Ancestor said to the other nine top masters, "Gentlemen, Medicine God Valley is fleeing to the Immortal River. Capture the leader before the followers; capturing Huan Qingyi should suffice."

Upon hearing this, the nine top Ghost Dao masters employed brutal tactics, breaking through the blockade of the Medicine God Valley's five elders and chasing after Huan Qingyi in the sky.

Just after issuing her command, Wang Xiaoqiang, holding her waist, hurriedly flew towards the Immortal River.

At that moment, under the Blood Moon in the sky, one could see the disciples of Medicine God Valley fighting while fleeing towards the Immortal River. All kinds of magic treasures clashed and sparkled, creating a spectacular and diverse scene.

Although the primary targets of the ten top Ghost Dao masters were Huan Qingyi, they were constantly engaged in combat by the five great elders of the Medicine God Valley, hence slowed down in their pursuit.

Wang Xiaoqiang and Huan Qingyi were the first to reach the area above the Immortal River.

At that moment, the surface of the Immortal River was densely packed with Aquatic Dark Soldiers, all neatly arranged in rows, waiting for Wang Xiaoqiang's command.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang felt a surge of relief and immediately commanded the Mystic Soldiers below, "Mystic Soldiers below, heed my command, receive the Medicine God Valley's disciples into the Immortal River Maze, and lure the Myriad Ghost Sect's Ghost Soldiers into the maze to ambush them!"

"Understood!" The Mystic Soldiers below shouted in unison, then all took flight to meet the Medicine God Valley's disciples.

After issuing his orders, Wang Xiaoqiang then said to Huan Qingyi, "Let's enter the maze first."

However, Huan Qingyi responded, "My disciples are still amidst severe danger; if I enter the maze first, my heart won't be at ease!"

"Alright, then, let's stay outside and lure the Myriad Ghost Ancestor into the maze…"

"Qiang, are you sure you can eliminate the ten top Ghost Dao masters? Each of them is extremely formidable…" Huan Qingyi expressed her concern.

"Don't worry, once they enter the maze, even if we don't kill them, they'll either die trapped or go mad with confusion…"
