The battle had just begun when it ended abruptly like this, leaving all the strong Soul Masters in a daze...
Everyone felt the fear in their hearts intensifying...
Finally, one of the Soul Masters couldn't help but speak up, "This... how is this possible? Even if Hall Master Guo and Hall Master Liang are old-timers at the Super Douluo level, they... they were actually brought down by a single hit from the Ghost Emperor."
Another Soul Master took a sharp breath, "Too... too terrifying. Such strength has completely exceeded the scope of Soul Masters. Do we... really have to fight against such a guy?"
"No... we can't win, it's absolutely impossible to win. The gap between the power of a God and ours is like heaven and earth!!"
"Everyone don't give up, the Ghost Emperor's strength is indeed formidable, but the auras of Hall Master Guo and Hall Master Liang haven't disappeared, they are still alive!!"
The strong warrior standing at the back lowered his head and was silent for several seconds...
Then he suddenly looked up, his pupils now filled with a hint of ruthlessness, "I... I don't want to die... If carrying the heads of my comrades can allow me to live, then... I want to try it!!"
The next second, he released his Martial Soul...
A Soul Ring beneath his feet lit up...
"Fourth Soul Skill, Looting Light Feathers!!"
Countless gold feathers with a chilling gleam floated around, immediately targeting and bombarding the closest man...
The latter hadn't even reacted before his body was brutally pierced with numerous bloody holes by the gold feathers, one could easily see the blurred flesh and blood...
"Aaaaagh!!"
As a painful scream rang out, the rest of the strong warriors immediately turned to look, and they were shocked by the sight...
"You... what are you doing? Why attack your comrade? Our enemy is the Ghost Emperor!"
"Damn... this guy must have been bewitched by the Ghost Emperor, so there's no need to hold back. Everyone, let's kill him together!!"
"Hmph, forget it, I don't want to get stabbed in the back, besides, since everyone has their own schemes, let's see who can take whose head!!"
"Really? Then let's try it. After all, just holding one of your heads can keep me alive!!"
"You... have you all gone mad? Stop it, this is all part of the Ghost Emperor's plan, he wants us to kill each other on purpose!"
The Ghost Emperor raised an eyebrow and spoke in an indifferent tone, "This has nothing to do with me. It's just revealing your true, ugly selves in the face of death. Do you really think you're any better than the evil Soul Masters?"
"However... my earlier words still stand, as long as you can cut off someone else's head, you may choose to serve me!"
With these words, everyone completely abandoned the idea of collaborating to fight against the Ghost Emperor, unleashing ruthless attacks on each other...
"Sixth Soul Skill, Tide!!"
"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Body, just die all of you, only I will survive!!"
"You think you're worthy? You don't have what it takes, Sixth Soul Skill, Flame Meteorite!"
"Quit the nonsense, I will live on stepping over your corpses, Eighth Soul Skill, Severing Gold Stingers!!"
...
Every move was extremely cruel, clearly aiming to kill as quickly as possible...
Seeing his goal accomplished, the smile hidden under the Ghost Emperor's mask grew wider, "Hehe... what a delightful scene to behold!"
Although they professed to be righteous, they were utterly ruthless to their comrades, truly despicable...
Then, as if sensing something, his gaze shifted downward...
There, he saw Guo Xiaoxu and Liang Xiaoyu, drenched in blood, swooping in at an incredibly fast speed...
"Oh? You're still alive. It seems you're not as weak as I thought."
Once Guo Xiaoxu and Liang Xiaoyu had steadied themselves, they turned their gaze toward their comrades, who were still battling each other, and immediately realized that it was the Ghost Emperor's doing!
His complexion instantly turned a ghastly shade of iron-blue...
Screaming furiously at the latter, "Ghost Emperor, are you truly so despicable? Don't you have even a hint of the bearing of a strong fighter?"
"That's right, to use such a vile trick, it seems that you, as the Holy Spirit Cult's master, are nothing special after all!!"
The Ghost Emperor clearly could have killed them with his own formidable strength, yet he chose instead to resort to such lowly tactics to make them harm each other!
However, the Ghost Emperor seemed unconcerned, speaking softly, "You all should see clearly, I only said a few simple words, yet when they started attacking their peers, they were utterly merciless!"
Guo Xiaoxu clenched her fists tightly, shouting again, "Ghost Emperor, stop spouting nonsense, it was clearly you who orchestrated this mess!"
Having said that, she wanted to step forward to stop the fight...
But Liang Xiaoyu beside her stopped her, speaking gravely, "Hall Master Guo, calm down, those guys... in their desperation to survive, have completely lost their reason. Even we cannot stop them!"
"Even worse, we could become the targets of their attacks!"
He saw in the eyes of those Soul Master powerhouses not a trace of humanity...
Guo Xiaoxu bit her teeth, but couldn't utter a single word...
Obviously, she understood the situation too, it was just that her heart didn't want to believe it!
At that thought, her gaze filled with murderous intent, fixed tightly on the Ghost Emperor, "Ghost Emperor, as long as I kill you, everything will end!!"
Yes, as long as the Ghost Emperor was killed, this "game" of mutual slaughter would naturally end!
The Ghost Emperor spread his arms as if he'd heard a joke, "Kill me? With your power, it would be like a mayfly shaking a tree!"
His casual blow had already caused serious damage to both of them, and he could not conceive of a scenario in which he would be defeated!
At that moment, a familiar voice sounded again...
"Hall Master Guo, Hall Master Liang!"
The newcomer was none other than Tang Wulin!
After being gravely injured by the Ghost Emperor, he had felt his Life Force rapidly ebbing away and thought he was going to die!
But unexpectedly, a tremendously potent Life Force had burst forth from his chest, reconstructing his meridians in a matter of mere seconds...
This had successfully snatched him from the jaws of death!
Although he had no evidence, he was certain that Saint Soul Douluo had nothing to do with it!
Then, there was only one answer left!
It had to be Teacher Xu!
Only he possessed a Life Force so powerful that it could bring back the dead!
Seeing his arrival, Guo Xiaoxu and Liang Xiaoyu exclaimed excitedly, "Wulin! I can't believe you're still alive!!"
The corners of Tang Wulin's mouth lifted, "Of course, how could I die before I've slain the Ghost Emperor!!"
"But, what's the situation over there..."
His gaze shifted towards the Soul Masters who were fighting fiercely...
Liang Xiaoyu said angrily, "These fellows have had their minds ensnared by the Ghost Emperor's deception. To stop them, we can only slay the Ghost Emperor!"
"However, since you're alright, then join us in battle!!"
