Chapter 961: Striking Off The Ghost Refining Sect Young Lord
A second later, the Ghost Refining Sect's Grand Elders also appeared consecutively, respectfully kneeling before their Sect Master as they welcomed his return.
The Ghost Refining Sect Master's gaze swept over the group of people, asking, "Where is the young lord?"
"Replying the Sect Master, the young lord went to cultivate at the Spiritual Pond Palace, should I make a trip over and inform him that Sect Master has returned?" The Infernal Ghost Messenger inquired.
"Since the young lord is cultivating in the Spiritual Pond Palace, there's no need to disturb him. After returning from the Sea of Hell this time, I've more or less determined the location of the Devil King Palace. However, without the devil clan, there is temporarily no way for us to open it." The Ghost Refining Sect Master's voice turned solemn, "Do you know the whereabouts of the Devil Bead?"
"According to the information we've collected, there is a ninety percent chance that the Devil Bead has fallen into Huang Xiaolong's hand." The Infernal Ghost Messenger went on, "Huang Xiaolong is here in the Path to Hell, it's just that we were unable to locate him."
The Ghost Refining Sect Master sounded even more solemn, "Use every means necessary, this Huang Xiaolong must be found! I must get that Devil Bead, there is something essential to me among the treasures left behind by the Devil King."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
"Go and prepare the succession ceremony well. Inform me when the young lord comes out from the Spiritual Pond Palace."
The present members of the Ghost Refining Sect's higher echelon respectfully complied and retreated.
...
Inside the Spiritual Pond Palace, the Ghost God lunging towards Huang Xiaolong was knocked back by his Earthen Buddha Palm strike, crashing into one of the palace walls. A resounding boom shook the hall.
Under his Earthen Buddha Palm, the ghost qi flowing around the Ghost God roiled violently and a roar of pain escaped its mouth.
The Buddhism energy was the bane of all ghostly creatures and devils.
Although the Ghost Gods refined by the Ghost Refining Sect members were powerful, against Huang Xiaolong's Buddhism force, they would be suppressed just the same.
"You, Buddhism energy! You're from the Bodhisattva Faction!" The Ghost Refining Sect young lord blurted out in shock.
If there was a power in the lower realm that the Ghost Refining Sect had any qualms about, it would the Bodhisattva Faction. It wasn't to say that the Bodhisattva Faction was more powerful than them, it was just because of their cultivation techniques!
The Bodhisattva Faction's cultivation techniques birthed Buddhism energy. Especially after condensing their godhead, a cultivator's godforce would contain Buddhism energy that was able to suppress their Ghost Refining Sect's techniques to a ruthless degree.
Huang Xiaolong remained indifferent and silent. In a flicker, he executed the same Earthen Buddha Palm, but this time it was aimed at the young lord himself.
The Ghost Refining Sect young lord recovered from his shock, his calm returned. A cruel gleam flitted across his eyes as he bellowed, "Blood Prison, Ten Thousand Ghosts Palm!"
A ghostly palm countered Huang Xiaolong's palm strike, causing blood red light to explode in the hall, drowned in a sea of roiling ghost qi.
Nefarious screeching ghosts multiplied as if they were being born from the blood prison itself.
