Chapter 334: Chapter 334: Death Shade Moss (Six Chapters today, three more in the afternoon)

Many people’s eyes were fixed on the tall horse, but Shi Hao’s focus was on the knight.

This was a Corpse Ghost whose features were still distinguishable, despite the obvious holes of rot on its face and even maggots crawling around, it still radiated a terrifying aura. What was more crucial, some purple-red moss grew on its spine.

Death Shade Moss!

Shi Hao immediately exclaimed in his heart and couldn’t help but his eyes lit up.

The Death Shade Moss could be used to refine the Deadly Escape Pill, serving as an irreplaceable main ingredient.

What use was this pill?

It could not enhance cultivation, nor could it prolong life; however, it could keep a person alive when they were critically injured, allowing them to slowly recover. It could be described as a life-saving elixir.

Of course, the effectiveness of the Deadly Escape Pill made from the Death Shade Moss depended on how many years it had been growing, affecting whether it could influence beings from the Other Shore Realm, the Founding King Court, or even the Heaven Building Ladder.

With this patch of Death Shade Moss, Shi Hao secretly estimated that it should be effective even against the Self-Observation!

Therefore, if he could obtain this Death Shade Moss, it was as if he would have an extra life.

He glanced around and noticed that no one was giving a second glance to the moss.

Obviously, no one else recognized its value but him.

Good.

As a result, Shi Hao didn’t even tell Han Liren, lest it cause him to hesitate in his actions and draw the suspicions of others.

The knight urged his skeletal warhorse forward, overlooking everyone.

—The only one who could meet him at eye level was Shi Hao mounted on the Dark Patterned Leopard.

"Die!" the Corpse Ghost Knight spoke with a hoarse voice.

What!

The crowd all showed shock, this undead could actually speak?

Does this mean that after death, one could truly transform into another form of existence?

People fear death because it signifies non-existence, but if after death one could transform into an undead with wisdom, able to speak, and possessing formidable strength, then what was there to fear in death?

Shi Hao frowned; was this why Mo Du wanted to transform into a Corpse Ghost?

The problem was that most Corpse Ghosts lacked intelligence, and moreover, Mo Du had been buried for thousands of years, which showed that turning into a Corpse Ghost was not an easy matter.

Clang!

At the Corpse Ghost Knight’s command, all the Corpse Ghost warriors drew their weapons, pointing them towards Shi Hao and his companions.

Step, step, step, the skeletal warhorse carried the Corpse Ghost Knight slowly towards Shi Hao and the others, followed closely by the Corpse Ghost army, all emanating a terrifying intent to kill.

"This undead knight is not to be underestimated!" Cheng Yang said.

"Hmm!" Zhang Gui nodded, he was a Founding King Court powerhouse of the Zhang Family, also one of the Seven Kings, on par with Cheng Yang.

"Founding King Court level." Han Liren’s face also looked solemn.

They didn’t know how undead cultivated, but they could gauge their opponent’s strength by sensing their aura.

"Hahaha, we’ve already killed so many undead, it won’t hurt to kill one more!" Shi Wendong laughed loudly, naturally, he was from the Shi Family’s Founding King Court.

By now, the Corpse Ghost army had surged over like a tsunami under the leadership of the Corpse Ghost Knight.

Suddenly, the battle erupted!

Whoosh, the Corpse Ghost Knight made his move, swinging a heavy sword about a zhang long. As it danced through the air, it brought with it a whistling wind, splitting the air into two distinct halves that were visible to the naked eye.

Ghost Fire burned on the heavy sword, maliciously sucking the essence of the living.

Cheng Yang took the lead, but after just one clash, he was repelled by a sword strike.

This shocked the other four Founding King Court powerhouses who immediately joined forces and rushed forward together.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four powerhouses joined forces, and only then were they barely able to hold off the Corpse Ghost Knights, and it was only when Cheng Yang made a powerful comeback that the situation slightly tilted in their favor.

However, Corpse Ghosts do not fear injury, which is a major problem, as they can exchange blows with the powerhouses, sustaining damage without being affected at all.

Therefore, all five powerhouses did not dare to be negligent, as they might capsize in the gutter unexpectedly.

On the other side, the others had no leisure to pay attention to this battle, because the Corpse Ghost army had already started their assault, and they had to fight for their lives.

——Clearly, Han Liren and his four companions were no longer able to take care of them.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

"Fatty, come here!" Shi Hao called out lightly.

Han Dong hurried over, and as he tried to mount the Dark Patterned Leopard, it kicked him away, causing him to tumble over.

He couldn’t help feeling depressed, how much do you despise me?

What he didn’t know was that Ferocious Beasts are extremely proud, and most would rather die than be tamed by humans. This Dark Patterned Leopard was only subdued by Shi Hao because it had high intelligence, allowing it to be intimidated by the amazing future it saw in him.

But what was Han Dong?

If it had to be ridden by this fat man, it would rather die.

Shi Hao laughed out loud, "Just follow Xiao An then."

Han Dong sighed. How cool would it have been if he could ride the Dark Patterned Leopard?

At that moment, he felt a surge of determination to cultivate.

He was determined to increase his strength and also tame a Dark Patterned Leopard.

Boom, the Corpse Ghost charged over.

The Dark Patterned Leopard took the initiative to attack, its two front paws alternating in striking forward with astonishing speed; an ordinary Other Shore Realm would probably only catch a glimpse of its afterimage.

And with each attack, it would rip a Corpse Ghost in half at the waist!

——The claws of the Dark Patterned Leopard could split fine steel, this was no boast.

However, the vital point of a Corpse Ghost was only in the head, so even if they were cut in two, they could still continue attacking by using their hands to prop themselves up.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Shi Hao followed up, his Dark Force bursting out, blowing the heads of these Corpse Ghosts to pieces.

"Xiao An, aim for their heads," he said.

Crack!

The Dark Patterned Leopard struck out again, and directly smashed the head of a Corpse Ghost.

Since they were only facing Corpse Ghosts of the Other Shore Realm, they naturally took care of them with ease.

Moreover, the strength of Corpse Ghosts lies in their immunity to injury and difficulty to kill, relying entirely on their Ghost Fire and Corpse Poison for combat power. Their actual strength is not that impressive.

So, when facing these Corpse Ghosts, everyone seemed like a genius capable of fighting above their level.

This battle created a clear distinction in levels, with members of the Founding King Court fighting against their own, the Self-Observation battling fiercely in a group, and those of the Other Shore Realm having their own battleground.

"Ah!"

As the battle dragged on, screams quickly arose, with one person being sprayed by Ghost Fire, and a horror unfolded as a large portion of his life essence was rapidly burned away. His dark hair instantly turned to white, and wrinkles appeared on his once smooth face as if he had aged into a seventy or eighty-year-old man in an instant.

This terrified everyone, causing them, almost instinctively, to use their Dark Force to distance themselves from the Corpse Ghosts as much as possible.

Shi Hao, who had experience fighting Corpse Ghosts, was not so frightened.

——Even if hit by Ghost Fire, one could still protect oneself with Elemental Power, so it wasn’t an unsolvable situation.

Of course, if a Corpse Ghost Knight from the Founding King Court blew a mouthful of Ghost Fire, Shi Hao would definitely not be able to withstand it.

The Corpse Ghosts came in waves, quickly surrounding Shi Hao and the others, and they were ensnared in a do-or-die blood battle.
