The bronze corpse opened its gaping mouth, revealing two-inch-long fangs, and with a ferocious expression, lunged toward the Ghost Patroller.
The bronze corpse was too powerful; the Ghost Patroller had no courage to resist.
He looked up and saw Wu Sui's flying boat approaching from above.
With a flick of his hand, he threw a spirit plant the size of a human head toward the flying boat.
It was the Jade Essence Grass!
The bronze corpse, upon seeing the Jade Essence Grass appear in mid-air, was instantly captivated by it, halting its attack on the Ghost Patroller.
With a sudden burst of power, it leaped into the air, reaching for the Jade Essence Grass.
Wu Sui, who was surprised to see a Jade Essence Grass suddenly appear in the air, didn't have time to rejoice before seeing the bronze corpse soar upward, its corpse aura surging, and its malevolent energy roiling, as it chased after the Jade Essence Grass and pounced on the flying boat.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Wu Sui remained calm.
He fully activated his chains, which coiled in the air, forming a sharp, conical shape, and thrust directly at the bronze corpse.
The chain's cone struck the bronze corpse's chest with a muffled "thud."
The chains instantly fell powerless to the ground as if they had been shaken apart.
The bronze corpse, however, remained unharmed, its upward speed only slightly slowed, and it continued reaching for the Jade Essence Grass.
"Go!" Wu Sui decisively ordered.
Song Wen suddenly felt a void beneath his feet as Wu Sui retracted the flying boat.
Wu Sui and Ying Ni were falling towards the ground, moving away from the bronze corpse.
Song Wen, on the other hand, felt a force push him from behind towards the direction of the bronze corpse.
He glanced sideways at Wu Sui, realizing that Wu Sui had just used spiritual energy to push him.
Wu Sui was essentially sending him to the bronze corpse's maw to delay the bronze corpse's speed, making it easier for Wu Sui and Ying Ni to escape.
Damn it! The demonic sect is indeed full of despicable people!
Song Wen cursed inwardly.
At this moment, the bronze corpse had grabbed the Jade Essence Grass in its hand and was raising its left hand, preparing to eliminate Song Wen, who was merely a small fry.
Seeing the fearsome, menacing face of the bronze corpse getting closer, Song Wen remained unflinching.
Suddenly, a burst of blood light flashed around Song Wen, and his falling speed increased several times, narrowly avoiding the bronze corpse's fatal strike.
As for the corpse aura from the bronze corpse, once it entered Song Wen's body, it dissipated without causing any effect.
"Bang!"
Song Wen crashed into the ground, creating a one-meter-deep pit.
With no time to waste, he used the Blood Escape Technique, finding a secluded spot to escape.
Two hundred meters away.
Ying Ni and Wu Sui landed not far from the Ghost Patroller.
Wu Sui looked up at the still airborne bronze corpse and noticed that Song Wen had disappeared, looking somewhat surprised,
"Hmm? Where's Ji Yin?"
Ying Ni also noticed this and asked,
"How did he escape the bronze corpse's attack?"
"Not sure. Maybe he had good fortune or some sort of life-saving trump card."
As they discussed, the two hurriedly rushed toward the Ghost Patroller.
The Ghost Patroller had used a ninth-layer Qi Refining ghost to temporarily block the Iron-Winged Eagle's attack and had lured the bronze corpse away with a Jade Essence Grass.
He was preparing to escape when a chain suddenly descended from the sky, blocking his path.
"Ghost Patroller, I am Wu Sui of the Corpse Demon Sect. Give me half of the Jade Essence Grass, and I'll help you fend off the bronze corpse."
The Ghost Patroller didn't even glance at Wu Sui. He wouldn't believe Wu Sui's words; if he gave Wu Sui the Jade Essence Grass, Wu Sui would undoubtedly escape faster than anyone else.
Seeing that the Ghost Patroller was unmoved, Wu Sui's chains twisted in the air and directly stabbed toward the Ghost Patroller's chest.
"Damn it! Taking advantage of the chaos!"
The Ghost Patroller cursed inwardly and quickly moved his hands. A ghost flag, similar to the one Chen Xiuming had, appeared in his grasp.
As the ghost flag waved, a surge of Yin energy erupted, making the area within ten meters become filled with ghostly winds.
A ninth-layer Qi Refining ghost emerged from within the Yin wind.
The chains pierced into the Yin wind, and the ghost, dragging its long black ghostly aura like a giant python, coiled around the chains.
Wu Sui suddenly found his chains uncontrollably dragged by the ghost.
He didn't release his grip on the chains and started a struggle with the ghost.
The Ghost Patroller watched the chains being dragged by the ghost and smiled. He had heard of Wu Sui's reputation. Wu Sui's most famous attack method was his black chains, and now that the chains were restrained, Wu Sui's threat was significantly reduced.
Just as the Ghost Patroller was about to use the "Ghostly Escape" technique to flee, he suddenly heard a seductive voice whispering in his ear.
"Ghost Patroller, darling, this little lady has a gift for you. Do you think I'm beautiful?"
The extremely alluring voice seemed to carry a tantalizing fragrance, soothing and enchanting. The voice was so soft it felt like it could make one's bones turn to mush.
Hearing the voice, the Ghost Patroller's spellcasting was momentarily interrupted.
Immediately, he looked at Ying Ni in horror.
This woman's seductive technique was terrifying; just a single sentence had forcefully interrupted his spellcasting.
The Ghost Patroller focused, clearing his mind, and prepared to activate the "Ghostly Escape" again.
But the moment was fleeting; the Iron-Winged Eagle had already killed the ghost and was diving toward him. The bronze corpse also changed direction and attacked him.
Surrounded on three sides, the Ghost Patroller had no way to escape!
The Ghost Patroller looked at Wu Sui and Ying Ni with a mix of hatred and anger.
"What I can't have, no one else should!"
Immediately, the remaining two Jade Essence Grass appeared in his hand. After infusing them with a burst of Yin energy, he threw them.
The Jade Essence Grass were hurled into the air above Wu Sui and Ying Ni.
Wu Sui, seeing the two Jade Essence Grass suddenly thrown over, did not suspect anything and assumed it was the Ghost Patroller's desperate attempt to survive.
Wu Sui's face brightened with joy as he leaped high into the air, reaching for the two Jade Essence Grass.
Ying Ni also jumped high, determined to obtain the Jade Essence Grass.
At this moment, their cooperation fell apart.
"Roar!"
"Caw!"
Two massive roars suddenly erupted.
Both the bronze corpse and the Iron-Winged Eagle were attracted to the Jade Essence Grass, changing direction and heading for the mushrooms in the air.
"Ying, I'll take care of the Jade Essence Grass for now. We can split them once we escape," Wu Sui said.
"Senior Wu, I'll handle the Jade Essence Grass," Ying Ni countered.
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Wu Sui's eyes. The corpse energy swirled around his hand as he struck toward Ying Ni.
Ying Ni wasn't easy to deal with either. Her hand was also surrounded by corpse energy as she clawed at Wu Sui.
Their hands clashed!
Ying Ni, who specialized in seductive techniques, was slightly weaker in speed and strength.
She was struck from mid-air by Wu Sui's blow and fell toward the Iron-Winged Eagle.
Wu Sui seized the opportunity to grab the two Jade Essence Grass.
