Chapter 1242 - 2 Vs 1 [Bonus ]

The two Sect leaders hit the ground with a splash of sand and water. All of a sudden both of them got separated as they went back to their normal forms from the fusion forms.

Both of them started spitting blood continuously as they felt their insides hurt like crazy.

The earth sect leader looked at the Water Sect leader like a hungry wolf looked at an injured deer. He lunged forward and started punching him in the face.

A water bubble appeared in the middle as the water sect leader tried to defend against the attacks. He soon stood up and started the counterattack.

Even though the Earth sect leader is used to taking a beating, the water sect leader has a way with his attacking. It is dangerous to have the Earth sect leader so close as he manipulates the ground to his advantage and lands a hit or two on the vital parts while taking the beating.

So, the Water sect leader made sure that he wouldn't be attacked like that and used his water element to increase the distance between him and the opponent.

After evading a few attacks catching an open, he placed both of his palms on the torso of the Earth Sect leader, to shoot him with a large high pressured water stream at point-blank range.

The Earth sect leader has flown away and crashed into the ground like a ragdoll being thrown away by a kid.

He stopped his motion by digging his fingers into the ground and using his earth elemental energy to cushion his inertia and he activated the earth elemental fusion once again and started making the hand signs. 

When the water sect leader watched this, his eyes widened in horror, he could sense the earth's elemental energy in the surroundings and knew that he is about to face something big.

"BROTHER, STOP THIS MADNESS NOW."

But he didn't care, he just went on weaving his hands at a crazy speed and the water sect leader gritted his teeth to do the same.

The water elemental energy occupied his surroundings as it revolved at a crazy speed and soon the water condensed into a large water dragon that looked like it was swimming in the air.

At this exact moment, the earth sect leader slammed his palms into the ground and looked at the sky, his eyes are glowing with the earth's elemental energy and slowly the glow spread to his whole body.

The ground around him and the water sect leader started quaking as the earth molded itself into large abominations with large mouths as they moved towards the Water Sect leader. The Water dragon gave out some roaring sound as it attacked the earth's abominations.

It destroyed one after another, but if one was destroyed it was being replaced by two. The whole ground became a material resource for making these abominations as they lumped together and attacked and soon, a large wall surrounded the water sect leader and the water dragon as they closed in.

The Earth Sect leader took off his palms and weaved a few more signs before slamming them again and at this moment, the wall of earthen abominations started glowing with earth elemental energy and inside the wall where the water sect leader is desperately struggling to get out, the mouths opened up and they started spitting out sand.

The sand moved with extreme speed and force as it slowly blasted everything, the water dragon disappeared first and the elemental fusion of the water sect leader was gone next and finally, his skin started eroding with the sand grains.

Then the bloody flesh was being eroded.

The Water sect leader, opened his mouth wide with tears in his eyes, but he couldn't even get out that last cry because of the sand and its motion.

When everything was cleared, the Earth Sect leader walked to the large crater he created and all he could see is a skeleton with a lot of tiny holes giving it a porous structure.

He looked at what remained of a person who was treated as a brother in the past and a moment of clarity returned to his eyes, but it only lasted for a second, before that crazy look returned.

At this moment, something gray came out of his body. It has multiple faces all over its body and is transparent. Night Ghost who is looking at this through surveillance looked at it in horror.

"This... This.." He looked at Sam with fear.

Sam just nodded confirming his suspicions with a solemn look.

This is a Cursed Ghost. A different type though. It is also called a Ghost Chimera in the circle of the cultivators who use ghosts. This is the greatest of the abominations anyone can create. Ghost Chimeras are hard to find and even after the creator who is the only person who has absolute control dies, it doesn't go away.

It will become a stray, it will possess whoever is next to it, every soul that was part of this creation will channel its negative emotion into the new host, making him go crazy over the smallest of the mistakes commited by people around him.

It was known that once a Chimera managed to possess a sword cultivator and he killed eight hundred people because the soup he ate didn't taste as good as it did before.

This is the story that Night Ghost heard when he was at the starting stages of his cultivation and now a Ghost Chimera like that is in front of them.

And he is looking at it performing the worst thing that it can do. Devour the soul of the victim and merge with it so that it can increase its power.

They saw as the grey ghost slowly pulled out the soul off of the Water Sect Leader's remains and forcefully merge it and an additional face appeared on its body before it went back into the Earth Sect Leader's body.

By now, the other two sect leaders arrived at the spot.

They looked at each other in shock when they realized what had happened.

Earth Sect leader is standing there with a weird bloodthirsty look while the Water Sect leader's skeleton lied there.

If only they were closer. Because of the fear of triggering another supposed suicide bombing, they stayed too far away in their own sect headquarters that are in different corners of the Inner City, and now by the time they made their way here, one of their brothers was killed by another one.

They became vigilant and the Metal Sect leader asked.

"Brother, what happened? Why did you do this? You better hope you have a proper explanation."

He said as he used the elemental fusion. Since the Earth Sect leader also has the fusion body activated, he figured that it would be better if he is also prepared. But he doesn't know that it is not his same brother.

"Why are you activating fusion? Do you want to kill me too? Are all of you planning to kill me from the start? Those enemies are trying to kill me, you are trying to kill me. All of you are trying to kill me. This is unfair. This cannot happen."

The Earth Sect Leader covered his face as he muttered continuously in some pain. He could almost hear the whispers of some voices in his ears.

'Yes, they are trying to kill you.'

'They don't care for you. They want your life. They crave for your life.'

'You need to die for them. Otherwise, they wouldn't back down.'

'You are going to die. You are going to be killed by your brothers.'

"No, No. NO. NO. STOOPP. You can't kill me."

As he muttered constantly, he looked at his two brothers. Looking at his state, the two sect leaders felt concerned. They may be rivals, but they really did treat each other like brothers, they cannot see one of their own suffering like this.

They took a step forward to take a look at him. But all of a sudden, the Earth Sect Leader yelled.

"DON'T COME FORWARD. DON'T YOU DARE COME TO ME. YOU CANNOT KILL ME. I CANNOT DIE. I WILL KILL YOU. I WILL KILL YOU ALL."

He yelled as he made hand signs.

The two sect leaders looked at each other and understood that their brother has really gone mental, they could only prepare themselves to defend and both also made hand signs.

The Earth Element, metal element, and wood element raged constantly as they started attacking.

Even though the Earth Element Sect Leader is exhausted from one battle, he still did great. He is holding his own against two other sect leaders and one could see why he is the second strongest. Too bad, the first strongest is not here. Otherwise, things would have been a bit better for them.

But they couldn't do anything but fight.. The two sect leaders wanted to bank on the fact that the Earth Sect leader is not in his top form to capture him, but soon they realized that they are being too ambitious.
