第四卷 七星岛 第六百五十八章 噬魂蛇

The Máng brothers were twin siblings, their appearances not differing much. The elder brother wore a black outfit while the younger one dressed in dark clothes. They were notorious for their prowess.

The old man from House Four was alarmed as he faced these formidable foes. He quickly cast his spells and summoned a pair of fierce tigers to defend himself. However, the Máng brothers did not hesitate; they unleashed their full might.

First, the flying needles shot out by the old man were intercepted by the skulls, which bit them off. The old man's expression turned grim as he tried to reclaim his needle with all his strength but was too late. The skull began chewing on it, and in a moment, the magical weapon was destroyed.

Meanwhile, the two-headed tiger faced its own peril. Despite being evenly matched at first, the dark-clothed man unleashed several spells, causing the black-tailed monster to go berserk. Its claws tore through one of the tiger's heads, while the creature bit into the other, tearing it apart with a powerful force.

The scene was chaotic as the old man’s face turned red with rage. He had spent two centuries cultivating this magical weapon, and its destruction left him shaken. However, his escape attempt was too late. The Máng brothers sent out their black lines, which swiftly pursued the fleeing old man.

Their speed was astonishing, and in a blink of an eye, they reached the old man's back. He panicked and released several firebirds, but these were no match for the black lines, which pierced through them effortlessly.

"Devouring soul snakes!" The old man’s face showed sheer terror as he realized that this snake could devour one's soul. He had encountered his worst nightmare, with no chance of reincarnation.

With three souls and seven pangs of fear, the old man was helpless. Suddenly, a large gray hand appeared out of nowhere, intercepting him. The Máng brothers were stunned by the sudden turn of events as the old man’s expression turned one of relief.

The old man quickly retreated, but his efforts to escape were futile. The devouring soul snakes struggled but could not break free from the restraints.

"Who dares to disrupt my brothers' magic and hide in shadows?" the Máng brothers shouted, releasing their divine sense to search for the intruder.

This was indeed strange. Despite their prowess, they had failed to detect any anomalies. Could it be that this person possessed special abilities to conceal themselves? They needed to be cautious.

"Thundering Máng brats! You dare to recklessly provoke me on my Mountain of Lightning and Darkness!" A dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky, rumbling ominously as if a storm was brewing.

"What is this?" The other cultivators were drawn by the strange phenomenon. However, an overwhelming pressure emanating from the cloud enveloped the entire Moon Peak, causing even those not affiliated with House Ning to feel the weight of it. Those with lower cultivation levels fell to their knees and broke into a cold sweat.

The Máng brothers, though more resilient, also turned pale as they felt the same dread that had once nearly cost them their lives when facing an婴期 expert years ago.

House Ning's disciples were jubilant at this turn of events. Although House Four was not eligible to participate in the ancestral hall meeting, they received a message and learned what had transpired.

Now convinced, they shouted: "Hail our ancestor!" Despite the formidable pressure, no one dared to attack, as it would be foolish to provoke such power.

The Máng brothers were shocked. An ancestor? Didn't their elder grandmaster die from a mishap just now?

Who was this ancestor?

Could it be... This was all a trap designed by the cloud ghost sect?

Their clever guesses only made them more regretful for accepting the benefits from the cloud ghosts. However, they maintained composure as the dark-clothed man bowed to the cloud: "May I ask your name, sir? Please enlighten us; why should we get involved in such matters?"

He still held a glimmer of hope that this was not truly an ancestor of House Ning.

"Ha! Intruding on others' affairs is indeed troublesome. Let me reveal myself so you can die with peace," the voice from the cloud boomed, and a towering figure emerged before them.

Lin轩 had orchestrated this to enhance the reputation of the Corpse Demon in House Ning's eyes. He intended not only to eliminate the enemies but also to establish his dominance among the cultivators.
