Chapter 4584: Black Beam

ings from the Wan Shou Ge. I am Shen Tianming, come to pay my respects!" A valiant young man atop a blazing bird laughed loudly as he leaped down from the sky, one hand holding several bound individua...Thoughtful, the fastest update of "Unique Path to Immortality!"

All around were floating ox heads, sheep heads, chicken heads, and even human skulls.

In the spacious areas, there were miles of gaps, while in the dense places, only one person could pass through. Countless skulls floated in the air, and from time to time, drops of gray water dripped from above onto the skull heads below.

Aside from the sound of dripping water, there was absolute silence.

Su Qing, Luo Qian, the phantom of the serpent's head old woman, and Yun Xiao stepped into it one after another, all stunned by the scene before them.

"Damn it, these hollow skulls really give me the creeps." Yunxiao felt a shiver run down his spine after seeing those empty eye sockets, as if he were being stared at by countless ghosts.

"Yun Dao-you looks quite burly, you'd be scared by this" The old woman with the python head phantom chuckled.

“That’s different. I can crush hundreds of ordinary ghosts with my bare hands, but these skeletons feel off somehow. I can’t quite put my finger on it. It just makes me uneasy.” Yun Xiao shook his head. “I feel like countless ghosts are watching us from the shadows. I can’t pinpoint their location, and that puts me at a disadvantage before even engaging them. What about you guys”

“Logically, there should have been quite a few people who entered the Skull Tower before us. Perhaps there are powerful restrictions inside that separate different areas. The unknown presence lurks on one side, motionless. As soon as we move, it will naturally attract it out.”

Su Qing swept her gaze around the perimeter before taking another step. "I'll start things off to get the ball rolling, but you guys better not just stand there and reap the benefits!"

"The Queen Ant is too kind. These early crises are always small. If you feel like you're giving too much, this old one wouldn't want to take advantage." The python's phantom head swayed, its black robe rippling as it quickly followed.

In several consecutive steps forward, those skeletons hanging in mid-air suddenly shot out blue-black beams from their empty eye sockets towards the few people.

Su Qing moved swiftly among the skulls, darting back and forth like a flower viewing horse.

A large net woven from black beams engulfed them, inescapable. Luo Qian reached out and drew his thunder spear, a massive bolt of lightning blasting a gaping hole in the net. Su Qing and several others quickly passed through the opening.

When they looked back at that moment, the passageway they had entered earlier was already completely closed.

The phantom python's head sent a jolt of fear through the old crone. Now, she wanted to retreat, but there was no way back. As the passage closed, perhaps because the restrictions of this place had been fully activated, they sensed fluctuations not far from their location. It was clear that they were not the only ones trapped in this unfamiliar region.

Amidst a series of booming explosions, Luo Qian and Yun Xiao unleashed a flurry of attacks. When faced with inescapable nets, they smashed through them with brute force. Wherever there was even a slight opening, they darted out of the way.

"Try breaking these skull heads!" Yunxiao was exasperated and directly waved his hand, a glow of red and blue alternated and drifted past. The skull heads enveloped by it exploded one after another, clearing out a blank area in the blink of an eye.

But before Yunxiao could feel relieved for long, more skull heads flew in from farther away, filling the space he had just cleared within a few breaths.

Yúnxiào disbelievingly cleaned up several times. But the results were no exception, and even the black light emanating from the empty eye sockets of these skeletons had a higher attack power than before.

"Yunxiao, if you don't want to die even faster, stop this reckless way of yours." The old woman with the phantom serpent head hurried to stop Yunxiao's actions.

"What good are you going to do" Yun Xiao said with a dismissive tone, though his movements slowed down. Cleaning up these skull heads took quite a toll on him. Even if the old woman didn't stop him, he couldn't keep it up forever.

"Let's go see elsewhere, maybe someone else has a solution." Luo Qian and Su Qing looked at each other, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes. Since they couldn't think of a way for the time being, they could only hope that those who had entered the Skull Tower before them had found a solution.

“It’s a way.” The old woman with the python head phantom nodded in response. Immediately, the four of them shifted to another place where movement could be heard.

The black beams intertwined ceaselessly, never pausing for a moment. Luo Qian's hand held the thunder spear, seemingly unremarkable as it thrust forward. Thunder rolled and seemed to divide into nine sections, each exploding with even greater power than the last, one section stronger than the next. In the blink of an eye, it cleared out a relatively clean passage.

Four wisps of self-awareness flashed past, and what came into view was a three-headed wolf monster, a black-robed, gold-embroidered ghost demon, and two ape-headed, python-bodied ghosts. The pythons' bodies were pierced by several black beams, and their ghostly energy was noticeably unstable at this moment, far worse than Su Qing and the others.

... streaks of black beams intertwined, coming from the powerful crossbow arrows. The two ape-headed, serpent-bodied ghosts, already weakened at their end, were powerless to dodge and were directly pierced by the black beams, becoming tattered like a broken fishing net.

In a horrifying scream, the opponent's body shattered into countless pieces. Only their head dissolved under the black light, transforming into two ape skulls that floated in mid-air.

The phantom head of a serpent and the old woman's whistling along with Yun Xiao, Luo Qian, and Su Qing involuntarily gasped. It turned out that these floating skeletons came from them. In this entire Skeleton Tower, there were countless skeleton heads. How many ghosts had fallen here Where did this Skeleton Tower come from There was such a murderous ghost artifact in the Wan Xuan Ghost Pond, it simply didn't give anyone a way to live.

"Fellow cultivators, these skull heads contain Black Jade Ghost Crystals. These black beams of light are emitted by the Black Jade Ghost Crystals passing through countless skull heads. Only after shattering the Black Jade Ghost Crystals will there be a chance to breathe!"

The three wolf demons and the black-robed, golden-trimmed ghost monsters shouted at the same time. They were afraid that Su Qing and the others would see the situation was unfavorable and leave directly. The two of them insisted until now, consuming a huge amount of energy without even a moment's rest. If no one else intervened, they feared it wouldn't be long before they followed in the footsteps of those two ape-headed, python-bodied ghost monsters.

“There's a black obsidian geode nearby. We managed to force it out, but it fled back into another skull. This is our chance to make a stand or catch our breath. If we just run for our lives, we'll only die a little later.”

"Is that true"

"I swear on my soul, if there is even a single lie in what I say, may ten thousand ghosts devour me!" The three wolf demons swore a deadly oath.

"Since that's the case, what are we waiting for Let's do it!" The old woman with the python head phantom flickered and transformed into a giant python, swimming through the void. Her entire body emanated a bone-chilling cold air. Wherever she passed, those skull heads were affected and covered in ice crystals. Under the expansion of the ice crystals, they directly cracked open. only grazed the outer flame of the ice-blue fire orb. It was as if he had cut into a quagmire, his blade's sharpness instantly vanishing.And that icy blue fireball continued to advance at a steady pa...
