Chapter 537: Chapter 246: Three Elements Ghost God Soul-shocking Formation_3

At this very moment, a dozen or so experts burst into the formation of more than a hundred people and immediately commenced a slaughter.

The screams of agony were incessant.

All of these were experts from the Eternal Night Valley, and the shadows trailing behind the disciples of the Ghost Shadow Seven Sects soared into the air. When deployed by their hands, each one was exceptionally sharp and bizarrely dangerous.

And those few who displayed the Absolute Skills of the Eternal Night Valley, such as the Five Ghosts Heavenly Demon Qi, were not something that the common disciples of the Youquan Sect could withstand.

In but a moment’s effort, these hundred plus people were nearly all dead or injured.

Furthermore, Shadow Envoys took advantage of the situation to attack, completely exterminating these Youquan Sect disciples.

However, the Night Lord simply extended his hand and pointed towards another direction.

Sometimes the change in the Array could be like this; when one spot reveals a weakness, weaknesses appear everywhere.

Previously, they had only been passively taking hits, but at this moment, the roles of attack and defense were reversed.

Not only that, with the Night Lord’s ability and his understanding of this Array, he could even use the formation here in turn, engaging in repeated guerrilla warfare with the Second Flag Order.

By now, the tide of battle had quietly turned.

But just at this moment, the Night Lord, who had always maintained his composure, suddenly looked down.

The next instant, two pallid claws burst from the ground, grabbing the Night Lord’s ankle.

The Night Lord gave a crisp laugh, then his whole body was dragged down into the ground.

This was another crafty move from the Second Flag Order.

For a person of the Night Lord’s caliber to attack here, how could they dare underestimate him?

Breaking the formation was only a matter of time. To say that they could fight the Night Lord in combat was even more untenable.

The only way to cling to life amidst death was to separate the Night Lord from these hundreds of experts.

As long as the Night Lord’s command was absent, these people would immediately be unable to take advantage of the Array’s changes, leaving victory and defeat unpredictable.

As for the Night Lord…

No matter how many lives it cost, they had to hold him back.

They envisioned that if a thousand people fought the Night Lord, even if he truly had martial arts that could overwhelm Donghuang, capable of eliminating those thousand people.

But by the time he finished killing, the overall situation would have already been decided.

Hence, the Night Lord realized that the weaknesses in the Three Elements Ghost God Soul-shocking Formation under the command of the Second Flag Order were real, yet the Second Flag Order’s true intention lay elsewhere.

At this very moment, the Night Lord suddenly vanished, those hundreds of Shadow Envoys, and even the dozen or so top experts,

Indeed became like rootless duckweed, trapped within the formation only able to react to all changes, and could no longer turn the tables.

But just then, fresh blood suddenly gushed from the ground.

As if a bloody spring had opened upon the earth.

Following that, the Night Lord’s figure abruptly rose, casually holding two corpses in his hands, throwing them aside.

“Nice planning, but unfortunately, these people trying to hold me down is nothing but wishful thinking.”

With both hands, he reached out and clawed toward the empty air above the ground:

“Rise!!!”

The earth churned violently, and immediately, one corpse after another was forcibly pulled out from beneath by him.

This move could be described as deeply mysterious!

It was enough to make anyone watching tremble with fear.

There were even more Youquan Sect disciples who, upon seeing this, almost fell apart:

“The Night Lord isn’t just a Jianghu martial artist, he’s a divine being… a divine being!

“How can we, mere mortals, oppose a god?”

Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn’t help but feel terror strike their hearts.

Even Su Mo, upon witnessing this, couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised:

“How did he perform this magic?”

However, after a closer inspection, he came to a realization: “Turns out it’s just Shadow Magic.”

Shadow Magic seemed mystical and profound, but Duan Song had once told Su Mo about it.

The so-called Shadow Magic is actually not much different from the Mechanical Puppets of Xizhou.

The art of Mechanical Puppets is to control through thin strings connected and moved by Inner Strength, forming a weapon out of external objects.

Shadow Magic, in fact, is quite similar. If one observes those from the Ghost Shadow Seven Sects carefully, whenever they deploy a shadow, their fingers would spread apart, a flick of the fingers causing the human skin to move accordingly.

What they are manipulating are threads.

Internal Strength follows these threads and connects to the human skin, controlled by the Demon Techniques of the Eternal Night Valley as if it were a part of their own body.

The Night Lord mentioned this just now.

And the reason why the distance between a shadow and its master is limited to ten or twenty meters is simply because of the length of the threads…

Once out of range, the shadows naturally cannot reach.

If the human skin arrives, but the thread snaps, and the Inner Strength cannot remain on the human skin… that would turn into simply sending out the human skin.

Completely devoid of any divine power.

The Night Lord’s technique is actually the same.

When Su Mo followed them into the Chimei Forest for the first time, he saw one of the Shadow Envoys, who was clearly in a defensive disadvantage and was about to be injured by the Blood Slave.

As a result, with a flick of the Night Lord’s finger, the opponent unexpectedly went through another change.

And that allowed him to exchange a palm with the Blood Slave and escape a dire situation.

At that time, Su Mo noticed this and somewhat understood.

But the movement was too subtle, and not clear to see.

Now, however, it was clear to see that dozens of threads sprung from the Night Lord’s hands, pulling on these corpses.

After he killed people, he flew out of the ground, and with a strong tug, the corpses naturally burst forth from the soil.

Suspended in the night, it looked horrifying to behold.

“No wonder it’s called magic… Indeed, it’s all deceptive tricks.

“Threads hidden under the night sky; apart from those with acute vision, how many can see clearly?

“The human skin is deliberately darkened, also to make it truly resemble a shadow…

“Yet, the strange martial arts of the Eternal Night Valley are not to be underestimated.

“Just with a single thread, achieving such an effect is indeed profound.

“But… once people start pretending to be gods, even ghosts would be scared to death.”

Su Mo shook his head lightly, withdrawing his gaze from the Night Lord.

He had entered the Chimei Forest with these hundreds of Shadow Envoys.

Moreover, the first time he observed the Night Lord, he seemed to have been noticed by him.

Now, all this time later, neither the Night Lord nor the Second Flag Order paid him any attention.

“Should I take this opportunity to look for the Wangliang Courtyard?

“On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, Chi Mei Wang Liang… Could it be that inside the Wangliang Courtyard, there really is a clue hidden?”
