2234: C2234 Night of a Hundred

C2234 Night of a Hundred

Ever since Empress Tian Yu broke into the territory of the Great Jiang Dynasty alone, the hundreds of ghosts that roamed the border avoided her.

Although the empire was originally the territory of Flower of Evil, empress Tian Yu was the legitimate emperor of Sun Moon Empire . The dignified imperial aura emitted from her body made the ghosts not dare to approach her easily.

Ever since Empress Tian Yu succeeded the throne, the empire had been divided into independent regions. The Heavenly Imperial Court could not interfere with it.

In order to trap these savage ghosts and blood spirit master in the territory of the empire, the Heavenly Imperial Court would send a large number of blood slaves to the empire every year to appease these bloodthirsty ghosts.

The Great Jiang Territory was filled with a nauseating smell of blood. The land within the territory was brown after the blood had solidified. All the rivers were a light red color. It was unknown how many undead souls' blood had been contaminated within.

The screams of the blood slaves could be heard from all directions, making one's scalp tingle. This was in stark contrast to the eerie laughter of the hundreds of ghosts.

Not to mention an ordinary person with a normal mind mistakenly entering a big country, even if a War Spiritualist with outstanding strength mistakenly entered, it would be very difficult for him to escape unscathed. A terrifying big country was simply an existence akin to a purgatory in the mortal world.

Even the Capital of Sins back then was only a small matter compared to it. The two of them were not on the same level at all.

As Empress Tian Yu gradually stepped into the depths of the empire, the density of hundreds of ghosts surrounding her became higher and higher. Moreover, the courage of these ghosts was much greater compared to the ghosts in the outer region.

Initially, those ghosts only dared to linger a thousand meters away from Empress Tian Yu. However, they were now circling a hundred meters away. There were even many powerful ghost leaders who were not afraid of the might of the emperor and challenged her authority at a close distance!

"Kekekekeke... What a rare guest! I wonder why the Empress has graced us with her presence. What business do you have?"

A strange ghostly flame blocked Empress Tian Yu's path, and a dreamlike demonic sound surged out.

This strange ghostly fire was completely different from ordinary ghostly fire. It contained two completely different types of ghostly fire.

One was a pure white Yin Flame that gave off an extremely cold aura, and a thin layer of frost covered everything within a few hundred meters.

The other was a crimson color. It erupted with extremely hot flames that shot into the sky. Even experts like Empress Tian Yu could not help but frown.

"Get lost!"

Empress Tian Yu slowly raised her eyes. A terrifying spirit press suddenly erupted, using it to resist the effects of the Yin Yang ghostly fire.

Just the spirit press alone had caused the ground within a radius of a thousand meters to crack open. The surrounding pitch-black Ghost Trees were uprooted, and the weaker Hundred Ghosts were instantly turned into ashes.

However, the eruption of the spirit press alone was not enough to cause the cluster of Yin Yang Ghost Flame to dissipate. Empress Tian Yu's sudden attack had clearly infuriated her.

"What if I say no?"

A pleasant demonic sound that sounded like clear spring water sounded once again. The cluster of Ghost Flame that was only the size of a fist earlier began to split apart continuously.

The speed at which the ghostly fire split apart grew faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire sky. The ghostly fire that blotted out the sky was like a sky full of twinkling stars.

As the orthodox emperor of Sun Moon Empire , empress Tian Yu naturally wouldn't swallow her anger when faced with such a blatant provocation.

"Since you insist on courting death, don't blame me..."

She slowly raised her arms, and a glaring golden light appeared. A dazzling longsword that seemed to be condensed from light slowly took shape.

Before the blinding longsword was fully formed, the golden light emitted by it caused the ghostly fire in close proximity to dissipate into thin air. The hundreds of ghosts who were watching the show from nearby also scattered like birds and beasts when they saw the longsword in Empress Tian Yu's hand.

"Sky Cloud Sword!"

The true form of the Yin and Yang ghostly fire could tell what the sword in Empress Tian Yu's hand was. It was the most sacred item in the Sun Moon Empire , the Heavenly Cloud Sword that was said to be able to kill all demons.

It was said that the Heavenly Cloud Sword was taken out from the belly of the peerless Great Devil Orochi. Its sharpness could cut through everything in the world. It had always been regarded as the symbol of imperial power by the Heavenly Imperial Court. Only the emperors of the past generations were qualified to use it.

However, there were very few emperors in the past dynasties who had the ability to control the Sky Cloud Sword. Most of them were stored as national treasures in the Imperial Court of Tian Yu. The Yin Yang Ghost Flame had never thought that Empress Tian Yu would wear it by her side.

Before the Sky Cloud Sword could fully form, the overwhelming Ghost Flame scattered in all directions like a madman. However, empress Tian Yu would never give it this chance.0

"Isn't it a little too late to think of escaping now!?"

Empress Tian Yu sneered in disdain. She slowly raised the Sky Cloud Sword in her hand, and the dazzling Evil Extermination Holy Light illuminated the night as bright as day.

However, just as Empress Tian Yu was about to swing her sword to kill the demons, an old and withered palm suddenly rested on her shoulder. Judging from the cold aura coming from the palm, it was definitely not an ordinary demon.

Empress Tian Yu was a peak battle spirit emperor expert. Even she didn't notice this person's approach. It could be seen how terrifying this fellow's concealment technique was!

"Who is it!?"

Empress Tian Yu suddenly turned around and swung the Sky Cloud Sword in her hand. A golden sword beam tore through the void.

Wherever the golden sword energy passed, it was split in half. A shocking sword scar ran across several kilometers. Even the demonic cloud hanging in the sky was split apart by the shocking sword energy!

This sword attack was not only shockingly powerful, but it was also so fast that it was unavoidable. Even the General of the Hundred Ghosts could not help but be shocked. His skinny and withered body was also cut into two in the middle.

It was only at this moment that Empress Tian Yu saw who was behind her. It was the Chief Commander of the Hundred Ghosts, nurarihyon!

The Night of the Hundred Ghosts in the Great Jiang State was just a common term among the people. There were countless ghosts wandering in the Great Jiang State, and there were more than a thousand of them.

The reason why the people in Sun Moon Empire called it the Night of the Hundred Ghosts was mainly because there were about a hundred different kinds of ghosts in the Great Jiang Province.

However, the world of demons also followed the law of the jungle. They also had a strong sense of territory, and it was common for demons to fight against each other.

In order for the races to become stronger, the Hundred Ghosts in the big world would naturally elect the strongest in their race to become the leader of their race.

Just like the one who had blocked Empress Tian Yu's path, it was the leader of the Ghost Fire Clan, who was known by the world to not know fire.

The leader of the Hundred Ghosts would also elect the most prestigious leader, and Nurarihyon was the strongest demon chosen by the leader of the Hundred Ghosts.

Nurarihyon was the leader of the Ghost Clan, and he was also the leader who controlled the Night of the Hundred Ghosts. His prestige and strength were only second to the Four Great Ghost Kings.
