Chapter 823: Ghost Path Supernatural Power

"Is this that Ghost God Path?"

"Such a terrifying aura... This guy must be at the sixth tier, right?"

"Is it just my imagination? His tier aura is very strange. It doesn't look like his own; it's more like the tiers of a bunch of people stacked together?"

"He used the Force God Path just now, right?"

"Yeah, the supervisor said he can mobilize a portion of the power the souls had while they were alive. It seems he has other abilities too..."

"This is really troublesome..."

The three referees looked at Kongwang, who was standing calmly in place, and felt the hair on their bodies stand on end.

Even though Kongwang hadn't done anything, just standing there created a chilling sense of oppression. Those yin-yang pupils seemed capable of seeing through everything.

Referee No. 3 swallowed hard and spoke with a guilty conscience:

"...Should we attack?"

"Attack, but don't risk your lives. Be careful to avoid his attacks, and try to stall him first!"

"Alright, let's attack together!!"

The three of them attacked simultaneously, rushing toward Kongwang, who was trapped in the center. But before their domains could even expand, Kongwang slowly raised his hands and formed a hand seal in front of him.

Under his lowered eyelids, his yin-yang pupils emitted a faint glow. At this moment, the yin and yang energies of the world seemed to be stirred by some invisible hand, instantly thrown into chaos!

"Quake."

Thud—!!

An invisible shockwave rippled out with Kongwang at the center!

The moment it swept across the three bodies, a sensation that struck directly at their souls made their vision go black. In an instant, the souls of all three were actually shaken out of their bodies!

The separation of flesh and soul caused their newly expanded domains to collapse instantly. They could vaguely see the backs of their own heads moving away, falling headfirst toward Kongwang's side due to inertia.

Having one's soul shaken out of the body, even for just a second, is a fatal flaw on an actual battlefield!

The three stiff bodies collided toward Kongwang. Before they could even touch him, a fair palm brushed across their cheeks. The ability of the Force God Path was contained within this single movement, blasting the heads of all three into fragments one after another!

Bang, bang, bang—!!

The souls of the three, having been shaken out, watched helplessly as blood splattered and their own headless corpses collapsed to the ground.

With their physical bodies dead, their souls had nowhere to reside. Their remaining consciousness began to dissipate, becoming dull and dead... It wasn't until three chains were flicked out by Kongwang, binding their wrists, that they floated lightly to Kongwang's side, becoming members of his undead army.

"Watch out!! He can shake souls out of bodies! Keep your distance from him!"

The referees rushing over from afar witnessed the whole process and shouted immediately!

The other referees who arrived saw this and immediately distanced themselves. But after seeing the scene where he instantly killed three people, the fear in their hearts grew even more intense!

The fact that three referees were instantly killed didn't mean Kongwang was powerful to a terrifying degree; it was just that they knew too little about the Ghost God Path, and their souls were shaken out while they were caught off guard. Everyone only knew of the existence of "Ghost Path Supernatural Powers," but they didn't know what power these abilities actually held or how to deal with them...

What they were facing was a lost divine path from a thousand years ago, a synonym for the unknown and the powerful... This unknown was the source of their fear.

Although over a dozen referees were gathered here, for a moment, no one dared to attack Kongwang again!

Not far away, Chen Ling touched his chin, thoughtful:

"Being able to capture souls from dead bodies, being able to recreate the abilities a soul had while alive, being able to consume soul power to perform so-called 'Ghost Path Supernatural Powers'... As expected of one of the four lost divine paths, the monstrous nature of this ability is already enough to rival the Emperor God Path."

Chen Ling had actually arrived when those three referees attacked. However, although he was eager to die, he wasn't reckless enough to act blindly; understanding the enemy's general abilities first was never a bad idea.

In the end, Referee No. 1 was the first to step forward. He didn't attack, but said in a deep voice:

"Ghost God Path, Kongwang... what exactly do you want to do?"

Kongwang merely glanced at him and then looked away, seemingly not taking him seriously, and walked calmly toward the distance. "What I want is not something you are qualified to discuss with me."

"I have already contacted our supervisor. I can represent the organizers of this event to speak with you!" Referee No. 1 gritted his teeth.

"You, and whatever organizers are behind you... are not qualified."

"Then who is qualified??"

"A thousand years ago, only human emperors were qualified to sit on equal footing with me." Kongwang said calmly. "In this era of yours, only the leaders of the few major domains are barely qualified to talk to me."

Referee No. 1 was speechless.

"Your goal is the Domain Talks?" Finally, a referee realized and frowned.

Kongwang did not answer. He just walked forward calmly. As he approached, the few referees who had surrounded him in that direction were forced to retreat repeatedly by his aura, their faces deathly pale...

"If you are trying to stall for time so that people outside can come to rescue you, don't waste your time."

Those yin-yang pupils seemed to see through their thoughts, directly shattering their hopes.

He flipped his palm, and a black broken bowl appeared in his hand. As he tossed the bowl into the sky, it shot into the clouds, and then, like a waterfall from the underworld, it poured down from above the Old District, inverting itself to cover the entire area!

A chilling coldness, as if from another world, obscured the edges of the Old District. All areas, both in the sky and on the ground, were sealed off and completely severed from the outside world.

"This is a Dao Foundation treasure I brought from behind the door, [Du'e]." Kongwang said calmly. "Before my power is exhausted, even if a demigod attacks, it cannot be broken from the outside..."

Feeling the aura emanating from that sky-covering bowl, the expressions of the referees turned incredibly ugly!

If that was the case, then waiting for reinforcements from the Tower of Babel was definitely out of the question... The only way to break this bowl might be to kill Kongwang...

But now, inside this Old District, who could kill him? Who would dare to kill him?!

Kongwang walked forward slowly, and the referees retreated slowly, as if facing a plague god, avoiding him at all costs, let alone taking the initiative to seek death... Even if Kongwang did nothing, under the gaze of those pupils, the sense of oppression was like a surging tide.

But just as all the referees subconsciously retreated, only one figure stood in place, unmoved.

"Wang Xuan?! You..."

Seeing that fluorescent robe with '06' written on it, the other referees were shocked.

In the end, the white-clad Kongwang and Chen Ling, wearing the fluorescent robe, stood face to face... The surging army of souls brushed past Chen Ling's ears, blowing his hair and the corners of his clothes upward.

Kongwang looked at him, as if remembering something, his eyebrows raised slightly.

"It's you..."
