Chapter 22: Ghost King Cloak

Roar…

Seeing a companion killed and devoured on the spot by Hu Feng, the remaining Vampire Imperial Guards were furious and swarmed forward. Their speed was incredible, one faster than the other. Their five-inch-long nails were bloody and red, having been soaked in the blood of countless enemies. Unfortunately, before they could even get close to attack, their vision blurred, and Hu Feng’s figure disappeared. Immediately after, another miserable scream rang out beside them.

A Vampire Imperial Guard was too slow to dodge. His throat was grabbed by Hu Feng’s large hand, and he was quickly devoured alive. In the blink of an eye, not even a trace was left, only a scream of terror!

“Who are you?”

Looking at the phantom wings formed by the Dark Mist behind Hu Feng, a Vampire Imperial Guard who looked like a small leader turned pale. Although it was only a pair of phantom wings, Hu Feng’s speed was incredibly fast. The Death Aura contained in the Dark Mist was even more terrifying!

“Who am I?” Hu Feng smiled faintly. With a light flap of his wings, he appeared in front of the small leader of the Vampire Imperial Guards with a ‘whoosh’. He casually waved his Dark Magic Pen, and a ball of scorching purple flame enveloped the other party. “For blaspheming the dignity of the Lich King, including you, all Vampires have only one fate!”

Lich King?

The small leader of the Vampire Imperial Guards was terrified. After a sharp scream, he frantically flapped his wings, trying to rush out of the raging fire. Unexpectedly, as soon as his head stuck out halfway, it was pressed down by a pair of terribly powerful hands. Instantly, it felt like he was being suppressed by a towering mountain. After a heart-piercing pain, he quickly lost consciousness.

Compared to the Sixth Step Skeleton King encountered back then, the fast-moving Vampire Imperial Guards were much more powerful, but Hu Feng was no longer the same person he used to be.

Breaking through from the third step of a Magic Apprentice to the Peak of Tier 9, his combat power had increased more than just six times. Even without using any special skills, just inputting his massive Magic Power was enough to blow up a Vampire’s body alive. Without using the powerful Soul Summoning Banner, he killed the strongest Vampire Imperial Guard leader in just one breath!

Retreat!

Seeing how fierce Hu Feng was, the remaining Vampire Imperial Guards were terrified and retreated in unison. Except for the Vampire Grand Commander cultivating in the depths of the Underground Palace, they didn’t know who else could stop Hu Feng, this terrifying Lich King!

A generation of Lich King!

It was said that the Lich King in the castle to the east had been cultivating in the Cursed Valley for nearly ten thousand years. His strength was unfathomable. Dying at his hands meant truly never being reborn. Looking at the massive Demon God Phantom behind Hu Feng, the remaining Vampire Imperial Guards were pale with fear, and their morale plummeted.

Fear Storm!

While devouring the small leader of the Vampire Imperial Guards, Hu Feng secretly launched a mental attack, crushing the psychological defenses of the many Vampires. He wasn’t afraid of them scattering in all directions, but worried they would form a formation to resist and delay time. The Dark Magic Pen flew up and down, writing an ancient ‘Trap’ character in flamboyant handwriting. Suddenly, a radius of a hundred meters was covered by a pitch-black protective shield, and not a single fast Vampire Warrior could escape.

“I said, you must die. Not a single one of you can escape alive!”

Hu Feng’s face was cold. The Dark Wings behind him became clearer and clearer. With a ‘whoosh’, he appeared in front of a terrified Vampire Warrior. Soon, he defeated the Vampire Warriors one by one while they fought separately in their panic. After devouring a full fifteen Vampire Imperial Guards with the strength of the seventh step, the Magic Power and Soul Power in his body reached the limit of the Peak of Tier 9 of a Magic Apprentice. The energy in his body compressed again and again!

“Lord, should we surround the Vampire Underground Palace, or kill the Vampires outside first?” Yisu asked loudly for instructions, leading the Lich Legion to arrive quickly. With Hu Feng clearing the secret sentries in front, the Skeleton Legion traveled much faster.

“Charge in directly and kill them all without mercy!” Hu Feng’s face was cold. He spread his huge Dark Wings and floated in mid-air. The Qi and blood in his body surged, making him look like a Demon God that could swallow mountains and rivers.

Kill Order!

A sudden attack, coupled with an absolute advantage in numbers. There was no reason to delay the battle at this moment. Hu Feng directly issued the Kill Order. The Sea of Skeletons had already formed. Even if the Vampire Underground Palace was a dragon’s pool or a tiger’s den, they had to kill their way in. If gods blocked them, they would kill gods; if Buddhas blocked them, they would kill Buddhas. They would completely eradicate this hidden danger to the west of the castle!

Roar…

Following Hu Feng’s command, the massive Skeleton Legion flooded into the Vampire Underground Palace like a tide. Disregarding casualties, they launched desperate charges one after another against the Vampire Warriors. A group of Skeletons fell down, but not long after, as a patch of black mist drifted by, a group of Skeleton Guardians stood up shakily and joined the battle again.

First-step Skeleton Guardians were far from being opponents for Sixth Step Vampires, but their massive numbers, coupled with the shocking Great Spirit Gathering Technique, immediately put huge pressure on the Vampire Warriors guarding the Underground Palace, forcing them to retreat step by step. After being divided and surrounded by the Skeleton Legion commanded by Yisu, the situation became even worse!

“Even a Little Skeleton has great energy!”

Seeing a Vampire Warrior being pressed to the ground by a tiny Skeleton Guardian after being injured, Hu Feng smiled faintly. With a ‘whoosh’, he pounced over and instantly devoured his Soul and essence blood energy. With a flap of his massive Dark Wings, he suddenly turned around and pounced towards a majestic Vampire Imperial Guard. With a ‘puff’, the sharp Dark Magic Pen brought up a splash of blood…

Under the leadership of Hu Feng, the Lich King, the tide-like Skeleton Legion was unstoppable!

Roar…

After killing their way to the third layer of the Underground Palace, an angry roar suddenly came from underground. An exceptionally burly Vampire suddenly appeared in front of everyone. With a shake of his figure, a team of Skeleton Warriors who had charged forward instantly fell down. Without exception, their spines were all snapped alive!

Vampire King!

The Vampire King cultivating in the depths of the Underground Palace finally appeared before everyone.

He wore a large, wide black cloak on his head. His face was pale, but his features were handsome. He did not have blood-red eyes, nor did he have hideous fangs. Not a trace of Magic Power fluctuation could be felt from his entire body. He looked less like a gloomy and terrifying Vampire, and more like a well-educated noble count! He appeared polite on the outside, but secretly gave people an extremely dangerous feeling!

Ghost King Cloak?

Looking at the pitch-black large cloak, Hu Feng’s heart shook.

According to the memories of Ovisis, Vampire Kings usually had the strength of the Eighth Step. A Vampire King who had refined the Ghost King Cloak was even stronger, having cultivated to at least the Peak of the Eighth Step, and his combat power far exceeded ordinary Vampire Imperial Guards. He came and went like the wind, having cultivated his teleportation talent to the extreme; even more terrifying was that the Ghost King Cloak on his head could conceal all auras and energy fluctuations, making his movements silent!

“Those who break into the Underground Palace, die!”

Looking at the Skeleton Soldiers swarming in like a tide, the Vampire King was furious. He spread his wings and pounced in front of a Skeleton Soldier, his eight-inch-long nail stabbing towards the latter’s skull. Just as everyone thought that Skeleton Soldier was doomed, the Vampire King’s figure suddenly disappeared. With a ‘whoosh’, he appeared behind Hu Feng. Before his hideous nail could stab in, the clothes on Hu Feng’s back were corroded by a dark aura, giving off a wisp of black smoke.

Ghost King Corpse Poison!

The Vampire King used a feint attack, then suddenly launched a Fatal Strike against Hu Feng, the Lich King. His speed was as fast as lightning, and his movements were silent. The corrosive Ghost King Corpse Poison was said to be able to corrode even the Soul. If a drop touched the skin, it would instantly spread throughout the body and corrode it until nothing remained!
