Chapter 652: Devouring the Evil Ghost with a Bloodthirsty Mouth

Raw Power Over Refinement, Brute Force Over Mastery!

Hu Ma collided with Zhou Jia's fourth miss, knocking her into a pitiful state. Her delicate face contorted in disbelief as she stared at Hu Ma.

This was utterly unreasonable...

Both were Year Guardians, and in the mortal realm, they would be revered as grandmasters who had reached the pinnacle of their craft. How could they resort to such a Devastating Fist?

But Hu Ma paid her no heed. With a sinister smile, he took several swift strides in his Heaven Measuring Boots, instantly catching up to the rapidly retreating Zhou Jia's fourth miss. He spread his arms and, in a sudden motion, reached for the jade vessel in her embrace.

"Not good!"

Zhou Jia's fourth miss reacted, shielding the jade vessel. Her divine form wavered, producing countless arms that waved and gestured, with fingers, palms, and seals all aimed at Hu Ma.

Normally, Hu Ma would have dodged or countered these attacks, but at this moment, he ignored them, using the tattered armor covering his divine form to endure the onslaught. His hands, reaching for the jade vessel in her embrace, suddenly sank downward.

In an instant, Zhou Jia's fourth miss found her slender waist encircled by Hu Ma's arms.

"Let go!"

Zhou Jia's fourth miss was surprised by Hu Ma's resilience. Unable to strike him with her fists, she was even more shocked by his feint. With her delicate waist in his embrace, her tender face flushed with embarrassment. Amidst her chaotic thoughts, she shouted sternly.

But in the next moment, Hu Ma abruptly straightened his back and lifted her into the air, executing a powerful bear hug that slammed her into the ground.

"You brute..."

Despite her divine form's protection, Zhou Jia's fourth miss was thrown into disarray, feeling more humiliated than if her waist had been held. Just as she was about to curse, she felt her ankle tighten as Hu Ma lifted her upside down.

Bang!

He swung her high and slammed her into the ground again!

The commotion left the onlookers stunned, quietly swallowing their saliva, unable to fathom the scene before them.

It wasn't...

Zhou Jia's fourth miss seemed helpless against Hu Ma's attacks. Amidst the silence, Long Jing Senior, who had just circled the large pot, turned back to witness the unseemly scene. A faint smile appeared on his lips as he whispered, "Laojun Mei, your disciple has potential, but he seems distracted. He hasn't devoted enough effort to your teachings and lacks the confidence you once had."

"But don't thank me; I forced it out of him!"

"..."

"..."

At that moment, Zhou Jia's fourth miss was completely overwhelmed by Hu Ma's brute force. She could counter his signature moves and techniques, but in this pure test of strength, his endurance, resilience, and wrestling skills reminiscent of a mischievous child put her at a significant disadvantage.

Her divine form constantly shifted, unleashing various skills against Hu Ma, but they had no effect on his sturdy armor.

She deeply regretted not picking up the hammers, but it was too late. Without a weapon, she could only target his weak points, but this Great Sage Master seemed to have none.

"I've figured it out..."

At that very moment, not far away, the blind Elder Seven lifted his head.

"..."

"Swish, swish, swish, swish!"

His voice was urgent, but in this situation, Zhou Jia's fourth miss didn't miss a word. Following his instructions, she twisted her slender waist, freeing herself from Hu Ma's grip. She unleashed a series of exquisite techniques, striking Hu Ma's vital points with her fingers, palms, and seals.

Even in this disadvantaged position, her accuracy in striking the vital points was exquisite.

After the assault, she retreated, her gaze fixed on Hu Ma, her thoughts in turmoil. Unconsciously, she rubbed her buttocks.

Her face alternated between calm and agitation, as if she had won but felt no joy. Moreover, upon deeper reflection, she realized that her victory wasn't solely her doing but was also due to the guidance of a master from the Year Guardian Sect, which had helped her turn the tide.

"He's subdued..."

At that moment, the surrounding Meng family disciples, filled with joy, looked at the tearful Elder Seven: "Seventh Young Master, why are you crying?"

"I..."

Elder Seven wiped away his tears and said, "This boy's destiny is too cruel..."

"I've calculated countless destinies, but I've never seen one as tragic as his..."

"..."

"Hmm?"

The bystanders struggled to comprehend. What kind of fate did this malevolent spirit have that even his opponent, upon calculating it, felt compelled to shed tears of sympathy?

"Wow!"

Just then, Hu Ma, struck in multiple vital points, stood motionless, his divine form slightly dimmed. He lowered his head, examining his body, seemingly curious about his inability to move and other thoughts.

The Meng family disciples, ignoring the commotion, rushed forward, ready to intervene.

Suddenly, a sound of tearing cloth emanated from Hu Ma's body. In the next moment, a tattered black robe on his body was ripped apart, and strips of it fell to the ground.

Hu Ma slowly raised his head towards Zhou Jia Sigu, revealing a grin. Without the black robe concealing him, his face was finally exposed, revealing a row of white teeth in a sinister smile that clearly fell into Zhou Jia Sigu's eyes.

"Not good..."

Zhou Jia Sigu suddenly reacted, her face changing abruptly as she hastily retreated. But suddenly, he reached out, and before she could react, he grabbed her neck and lifted her into the air.

With one hand, he swiftly grabbed towards the jade vessel in her embrace, while with the other, he exerted force, intending to twist his neck directly.

The sudden change was unimaginable, and Zhou Jia Sigu's face turned ashen, unable to resist. But in the next moment, countless demonic souls suddenly emerged from the jade vessel in her embrace, one after another, clearly demonic souls, yet each exuded the aura of a grandmaster, shouting and charging towards Hu Ma's face.

Caught off guard, Hu Ma, already in a state of unbridled ferocity, had some preparation time and could still restrain himself. But at this moment, he suddenly opened his gaping mouth and devoured the demonic souls one by one, chewing noisily with trembling arms and legs at the corners of his mouth.

"Bottle Master..."

Zhou Jia Sigu watched, already feeling immense pain, and cried out.

But this cry caught Hu Ma's attention. Still chewing with great relish, he suddenly grabbed the jade vessel from her embrace and stuffed it into his mouth.

"What's going on?"

For a moment, the surroundings fell silent, everyone staring dumbfounded at the unbelievable scene.

"Pfft..."

At the same time, as the black robe was torn into pieces, Xiezhi Qiye beside him suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

His face turned pale, and wrinkles rapidly formed on his aged face, making him appear twenty years older.

"Something's wrong, something's wrong..."

He muttered to himself, "I miscalculated, how did I make such a huge mistake..."

"Who has such power to dare harm me with this heaven-defying method, creating a life out of thin air for me to calculate?"

"How did it end up so tragic?"

"..."

"Quick, save Zhou Jia Sigu..."

The Meng Family disciple nearby also realized the situation had escalated, and he rushed forward without regard for his life.

But in Hu Ma's eyes, they seemed like mere prey, instead provoking Hu Ma's ferocity. He unleashed his full strength, grabbing them one by one and stuffing them into his mouth, turning this part of the City of the Wrongly Dead into a scene from hell.

Amidst the chaos, Zhou Jia Sigu, whose soul light had been damaged, was seized by two demonic souls that flew out of the jade vessel. They carried her out of the battle, covering her head as they hurried to escape.

The battered Zhou Jia Sigu turned back and looked at the endlessly ferocious Great Bellied Ghost King, feeling both anger and shock. Tears had already started to flow: "This shouldn't be, this shouldn't be..."

"The Zhou Family's techniques couldn't possibly be defeated by you..."

"I will find you, I will definitely find you, even if you are a malevolent spirit, I will uncover you..."

"Go to the Hu Family!"

"I will spare no effort to ask the Hu Family to help me find him!"

"..."

"..."

As Zhou Jia Sigu fled into the distance, the Meng Family disciple, now free from Hu Ma's grasp, was confronted by Hu Ma's unleashed ferocity. Just then, a slightly exasperated voice came from the side: "That's enough, it's all taken care of."

"I just asked you to kill a few people, but you've made such a mess, and you can't even clean up the crying ghosts properly?"

"..."

"Hmm?"

Hu Ma, in the midst of his raging ferocity, suddenly glared at Long Jing Senior.

But as he stared, he saw Long Jing Senior's indifferent gaze, hesitated slightly, and his ferocity gradually subsided.

"Oh no..."

Suddenly, he retracted his divine form, his face turning pale, and he almost vomited: "I... I ate people?"

He had just been in a fit of rage, and although he had some memory, he suddenly recalled the scene of devouring countless evil ghosts.

Ghosts are transformed people, what's the difference between this and eating people?

"What do you mean, eating people?"

Long Jing Senior almost laughed in exasperation and said, "I merely took away their karmic consequences."

"Demonic souls can only be dispersed, not eaten, but their karmic consequences can be shouldered by your divine form. This is actually a liberation technique, but others don't understand. From a distance, it looks like the Great Sage Master eating people, and that's how he got the name Great Bellied Ghost King..."

"Of course, you defeating Zhou Jia Sigu is one thing, but you even swallowed her jade vessel, that's something I didn't expect..."

As he spoke, a smile of amused curiosity appeared on his face. He shook his head and sighed, "You handle the rest, I can't be bothered. I'll go check on these Purple Great Guardians!"

"The Meng Family really spent a fortune, it's superior grade..."

"You got a great deal, young man!"
