Chapter 532: What's Missing from the Altar of Law?

"Halt, what demon dares to cause mischief here? Come forth and meet your demise," the Great Immortal's gaze swept toward the distance as he shouted aloud, startling everyone with his sudden outburst. However, no one blamed the Great Immortal for the scare; instead, they appeared grateful.

On tiptoes, I followed the Great Immortal's gaze, but there was nothing there, not a hint of anything. Perhaps it was those Hungry Ghosts he spoke of? I couldn't see them because they must be using something like the Ghost Concealment Technique. In any case, it seemed my own spiritual cultivation was simply too weak.

Following that, the Great Immortal began to shout incoherently and then, to everyone's surprise, he threw the Peach Wood Sword toward the villagers standing behind us. It looked as if he intended to pierce the heart of a Ghostly Apparition with one swift strike, but sadly, his throw seemed to lack strength, causing the sword to hit a villager on the head instead.
