Chapter 1550: Chapter 1545: The New Ghost Emperor_1 Chapter 1550: Chapter 1545: The New Ghost Emperor_1 After grunting his reply, the Ever-victorious Emperor said: “I don’t know who first discovered that swearing in front of a True God Sculpture could bind the perpetrator through the Heavenly Dao’s restriction on True Gods. Simply put, once you swear in front of a True God Sculpture, your oath will come true, and you can’t renege on it, otherwise, you will suffer divine retribution just like the True Gods!”

“There’s such a thing?” Yang Chen was completely unaware of it.

But when he thought about it, he suddenly recalled the Holy Hall in Dark Shadow City!

Didn’t that Holy Hall also contain many statues?

Back then, he swore in front of those statues. Could it be that those statues were all True God Sculptures?

Yang Chen suddenly understood something. This should not be a coincidence. It seemed that Wu Changkong and the people from the Fierce Ghost Sect had not lied about it, which confirmed their sincerity in wanting to obtain his Slaughter God Spear. Thus, Yang Chen gained a deeper understanding of the preciousness of his Slaughter God Spear.

As these thoughts crossed his mind, Yang Chen nodded: “Junior understands.”

“Yang Chen, think it over carefully. Bai Yudi has already communicated with our souls and is arriving soon. It is inevitable that the Five Emperors will converge. You don’t need to take such a risk…” Elder Xie Yun said.

“Thank you for your concern, Senior Xie Yun. However, as a member of the Northern Territory Sect, how can I stand by and watch the Northern Territory Sect be forcibly occupied by such people? For this, I am willing to take a bet.” Yang Chen said respectfully.

Seeing Yang Chen’s determination, the Ever-victorious Emperor and Elder Xie Yun did not try to stop him any further.

Yang Chen stepped forward and said, “Very well, no problem, I am willing to swear, but Wu Changkong, forget it, you as a small character cannot represent the Fierce Ghost Sect. I want the two behind you to come out and swear!”

Wu Changkong felt insulted by Yang Chen’s disdain and was filled with anger, but soon, he had to wave his sleeve and turn his gaze to Luo Xu and Li Huang.

After exchanging glances with each other, Luo Xu eventually stepped forward.

Luo Xu said indifferently, “Kid, I am the current deputy team leader of the Fierce Ghost Sect. Since this bet has been made, it is not a joke. I am willing to represent the Fierce Ghost Sect and swear in front of the True God Sculpture.”

“In that case, please do,” Yang Chen waved his hand.

Without wasting any time, Luo Xu said, “I, Luo Xu, represent the Fierce Ghost Sect in swearing here today that if Wu Changkong loses today, and my Fierce Ghost Sect fails to complete the bet of returning the Northern Territory Sect after leaving, I, Luo Xu, will be willing to suffer divine retribution and die an unnatural death. Apart from that, when we leave, the Fierce Ghost Sect will not move a single blade of grass or tree from the Northern Territory Sect.”

As his statement ended, a surge of power flowed out of the True God Sculpture in an instant, entering Luo Xu’s body in the blink of an eye, swirling around him before completely disappearing.

Seeing this power, Yang Chen knew that Luo Xu and Li Huang had not deceived him.

Because this power was no different from the force that arose when he made a vow in the Holy Hall of Dark Shadow City.

With this in mind, he said directly, “I, Yang Chen, am willing to swear that if I, Yang Chen, lose to Wu Changkong today, I will be willing to take out the beloved spear I once used to defeat Wu Changkong!”

Although he did not mention the Slaughter God Spear by name, he was basically referring to it. Yang Chen did not play any tricks in his oath, as he knew well that the people of the Fierce Ghost Sect were not that easy to deceive.

Luo Xu carefully repeated Yang Chen’s oath a few times and found that there was no problem with it. He waved his hand to signal Wu Changkong to make his move.

Ever since he was defeated by Yang Chen, Wu Changkong had been unable to eat or drink, wanting revenge. After all, the fact that he was nearly killed by a Spirit Plate Stage cultivator was extremely humiliating for him.

He thought of revenge all the time, and now that he had the chance, he would not miss it.He wanted Yang Chen to know what would happen if he angered him and offended him.

“Yang Chen, today, you will lose miserably.” Wu Changkong twisted his neck, his eyes full of disdain.

Yang Chen said slowly, “Is that so? I’m very curious then, how do you plan to make me lose miserably.”

Wu Changkong’s veins had already been bulging with anger, and now every word Yang Chen said could easily ignite his rage.

He suddenly burst out of his clothes and transformed into the appearance of the Protector Golden Boy, revealing a childish and eerie grin.

As the Protector Golden Boy, Wu Changkong instantly released four different gases nearby and then unleashed the Red Whip, directly sealing off Yang Chen’s retreat.

This time, he learned to be smarter, not only launching the first strike but also instantly displaying his true abilities, leaving Yang Chen with no power to counterattack.

“Yang Chen, you have no chance of winning today!” As Wu Changkong roared in anger, he suddenly held a Ghost Banner in his hand.

It was the Ghost Banner that Li Huang had given him.

When he saw the Ghost Banner, Yang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and knew that Li Huang must have prepared something for Wu Changkong to ensure his victory.

To win, Wu Changkong went all out, not caring about his face, and immediately brought out the Ghost Banner. With a shake, thousands of yin-soul ghost creatures were born.

These ghost creatures were extraordinary, and based on Yang Chen’s understanding, their Yin Qi was even stronger than that of Ma Hui and He Du, not on the same level at all.

Under Wu Changkong’s control, these yin qi ghost creatures formed a huge figure, exactly the same as the Ghost Emperor summoned by He Du, but its size and stature were not on the same level.

When this Ghost Emperor appeared, it showed ferocious fangs and cruelty, directly targeting Yang Chen.

“Hehehe, Yang Chen, you will definitely lose, definitely lose.” Wu Changkong kept mumbling as if such words could bring him great comfort and stabilize his restless heart.

Yang Chen mocked, “Wu Changkong, are you that scared?”

“Scared? I think it’s you who should be scared.” Wu Changkong yelled angrily, and then, the red whip instantly left his hand, chasing after Yang Chen.

At the same time, the huge Ghost Emperor cooperated with the red whip, and under Wu Changkong’s control of the Ghost Banner, it attacked Yang Chen with its claws bared.

This red whip alone was not a problem, but when it worked together with the huge Ghost Emperor, its significance completely changed, becoming extraordinary.

Ordinary Ghost Emperors were already difficult to deal with, let alone one bestowed by Li Huang.

Yang Chen began by summoning the Lightning Giant to test the power of the Ghost Emperor.

However, the moment the two Lightning Giants appeared, one was instantly struck back by the Ghost Emperor, and the other could not withstand the attack and was quickly beaten down.

Yang Chen had to divert his attention to track the red whip, barely able to look after himself. The two Lightning Giants were not completely controlled by Yang Chen and were soon overwhelmed. In a short while, one of them was reduced to a state of thunder and lightning.

“Such strong power, this Ghost Emperor must not be underestimated,” Yang Chen whispered.
