Humans have three souls and seven spirits. The blood ghost has currently only condensed three blood souls. After the first blood soul was shattered, the blood ghost should logically release the second blood soul.

But the blood ghost defied convention. It did not release the second blood soul; instead, it turned and lunged at Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang only felt a blood shadow flash before his eyes, and that bloodthirsty beast lunged at him. From a distance, he felt a rancid wind slap his face, making him want to vomit just from the smell.

He was confident he could kill this blood ghost, but he didn't want to dirty his hands, so with a thought, he summoned the Patterned Beast to protect him,

The Patterned Beast roared, swung its body sideways to block Wang Xiaoqiang, and spat a flame at the charging blood ghost.

The tangible fire rushed towards the blood ghost, who knew the power of the Fire Spirit Technique and dared not resist directly, so it immediately dodged.

As it dodged, it discreetly released the second blood soul, which silently flashed forward, bypassing the Patterned Beast, and leapt at Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang's Divine Sense immediately sensed it. Seeing the blood soul coming, he locked onto it with his Divine Sense. When the blood soul approached, he suddenly struck out with his left hand, hitting the attacking blood soul,

With a crack, thunder crashed, and the electric arc from his palm smashed onto the blood soul, exploding it into countless fragments, rendering it nonexistent.

The blood ghost saw this with both pain and surprise. It originally thought Wang Xiaoqiang would use his hammer to smash the blood soul,

But the blood soul is a Yin Void Substance. No matter how strong the force, it would not cause much damage if smashed, yet it never expected Wang Xiaoqiang to use lightning to attack, as lightning is the nemesis of Yin Void Substances, dispersing the blood soul immediately.

Utterly annihilated.

The blood ghost gazed at Wang Xiaoqiang, its bloody, eerie eyes narrowed into pin-like pupils, filled with doubt and fear. It did not release the third blood soul but decisively retreated.

However, Wang Xiaoqiang did not give it the chance to escape. He drew the Sun-Shooting Bow and shot an arrow at it.

Whew!

The sound of breaking air echoed as a Soldier Aura Arrow imbued with lightning shot into the blood ghost's back, crackling with electrical explosions,

The blood ghost's body trembled violently, letting out a heartrending screech, yet without the slightest pause, it plummeted like a meteor,

Landing, it rolled into the blood pool, then dived straight into it, disappearing, while blood bubbles surfaced in the pool. Everything returned to calm.

The blood ghost's defeat and escape meant the complete collapse of the Ghost Face Great Formation. The Ghost Face Great Formation was the Island Protection Formation of this island. As the formation crumbled, the island's defensive power vanished completely, plunging the island into a state of extreme panic, with ghost cultivators on the island retreating indoors, huddling in fear.

Of course, among the ghost cultivators, there were brave and fierce ones. At this moment, a large group of ghost cultivators gathered around Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang descended onto the island but did not initiate attacks on the ghost cultivators. Instead, he headed straight towards the blood mouth of the Ghost Face Great Formation, the blood pool where the blood ghost hid.

The blood pool exuded a thick bloody stench, hinting that it was indeed a pool of fresh blood, with faintly visible white bones submerged within,

In truth, it was indeed a blood pool formed by the collected blood of the Human Clan. This blood pool was not only the main formation of the Island Protection Formation but also where the blood ghost cultivated. The blood ghost was the island's guardian, usually relying on the blood of the Human Clan to condense blood souls,

For every blood soul it condensed, it required the blood volume of a thousand humans. Three blood souls would require at least three thousand human blood.

It can be imagined the tremendous atrocities this beast committed.

Such a guilty ghost creature, Wang Xiaoqiang absolutely could not let escape.

"You foul beast, come out!" Wang Xiaoqiang shot an arrow into the blood pool, a Soldier Aura Arrow accompanied by lightning, which plunged into the pool like a stone into the sea, disappearing without a trace.

The blood pool rippled slightly and then returned to calm.

At this time, a group of ghost cultivators rushed to attack.

The leader was a Ghost General. Wang Xiaoqiang swung the War God Hammer, sweeping it fiercely at the oncoming ghost cultivators. Instantly, the thunderous explosion was heard, and a large group of ghost cultivators was torn apart, bleeding to death.

Wang Xiaoqiang beheaded the ghost cultivators, confined their Primordial Spirits in the Sumeru Ring, and threw their bodies into the blood pool.

The blood pool was deep but not wide. After throwing in the dozens of ghost cultivators' bodies, some blood overflowed.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's overwhelming strength, the ghost cultivators attempted to flee. Wang Xiaoqiang released nine avatars. Once they appeared, the nine avatars immediately spread to the island's edges, ambushing the ghost cultivators,

Slaying the ghost cultivators, beheading them, threading their heads on the dragon tendon, with their Primordial Spirits confined in the Sumeru Ring, then throwing all the bodies into the blood pool...

Wang Xiaoqiang intended to fill the blood pool with the ghost cultivators' bodies to force the blood ghost to reveal itself.

This task was carried out by the nine avatars. Meanwhile, Wang Xiaoqiang's true form had already rushed into the island's main hall, capturing the island's owner... Lady Qiao Ji.

Lady Qiao Ji was a beloved concubine of the Ghost King. However, since Qiao Ji did not get along with the Ghost King's principal consort, they couldn't live together, so the Ghost King placed Qiao Ji on this island,

For Qiao Ji's safety, the Ghost King had assigned a trusted aide, the blood ghost, to this place. The blood ghost, unable to withstand external threats, hid in the blood pool, leaving Qiao Ji and her daughter trembling in fear, hiding in their boudoir...

Qiao Ji truly was stunning, and her daughter Little Mei was also quite the beauty.

Wang Xiaoqiang invaded Qiao Ji's Fragrant Boudoir. Seeing Qiao Ji's blend of beauty and dignity and her luxurious living quarters, he knew her status on the island was exceptional, so he asked, "I'm asking you, what's your name?"

Attempting to intimidate Wang Xiaoqiang with the name of the Ghost King, Qiao Ji truthfully replied, "My name is Qiao Ji. I am the Ghost King's woman. If you dare harm me, the Ghost King will not let you off easily. You better think twice..."

Wang Xiaoqiang disliked being threatened more than anything, and though he felt anger rising, he suppressed it. Looking at Little Mei, he asked, "And who is this?"

"This is Little Mei, my daughter with the Ghost King!" Qiao Ji said, raising her jade-like face, seemingly fearless.

"So, you're the owner of this island?"

"Naturally." Qiao Ji arrogantly lifted her jade neck and replied.

Wang Xiaoqiang gazed at Qiao Ji with a playful smile, "Alright, I intend to stay on the island for a few days. I hope you, as the host, will properly entertain me..."

Qiao Ji saw Wang Xiaoqiang was unafraid of the Ghost King, and her face darkened, but then her eyes turned, and she said, "If you want me to entertain you, you must first show some skill..."

"What skill? I've already entered your chamber, and if I wanted to kill you, it would be a breeze." Wang Xiaoqiang took a step forward, swiftly grasped her pointed chin, and said:

"Heh, who knew there'd be beauties among ghost cultivators? Listen, not only will you serve me with fine wine and food, but you'll also accompany me..."

"If you can kill the blood ghost, I'll agree." Qiao Ji's face flickered with a cold smile, giving Wang Xiaoqiang a dismissive look as she spoke condescendingly.

"You mean that blood Qi-covered creature?" Wang Xiaoqiang sneered dismissively.

"Yes!" Qiao Ji replied.

"Alright, just you wait!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, releasing Qiao Ji's chin, and then turned to leave, striding through the island's picturesque corridors toward the blood pool.

Just as Wang Xiaoqiang stepped out, Qiao Ji hastily took out a Communication Talisman to inform the Ghost King, pleading for his rescue.

Both his beloved concubine and his precious daughter were the Ghost King's darlings. Upon receiving the news, the Ghost King flew into a rage and was deeply worried, so he immediately led his forces to the island in person. (To be continued.
