After the Ghost King flew a short distance, he took out a black sphere and threw Star Dance into it. Then he entered it as well. The black sphere suddenly accelerated and quickly left The Maiden of the Celestial Realm who was chasing after him.

"It's the Ghost King's flying artifact, the Chaos Pearl!!!" Jiu Mu exclaimed in frustration.

"We can't catch up to the Ghost King with our flying treasure!!!" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm said helplessly.

Soon, Sakiko's flying boat caught up, but they discovered that the Ghost King's black sphere had disappeared. They could only give up.

"Damn it! My plan was so meticulous! And yet, he still managed to escape!" Jiu Mu angrily exclaimed.

"Star Dance!" Xu Chen was extremely anxious.

"Xu Chen, I'm sorry. If I wasn't so hesitant, your Star Dance sister wouldn't have been captured by the Ghost King..." Sakiko said guiltily.

"Aunt Sakiko, don't talk about that now! We have to rescue Star Dance immediately! If she falls into the hands of the Ghost King, the consequences will be unimaginable!!!" Xu Chen worried.

"Xu Chen! The Ghost King is heavily injured. At this moment, he should only be focused on escaping, and he won't do anything to Star Dance, right?" Devol asked.

"No!" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm spoke up. "The Ghost King definitely has precious treasures that can quickly heal and restore his strength! Despite being extremely valuable, he will use them as soon as he catches his breath. I believe he will recover his power soon!"

"What... How can this be..." Xu Chen leaned against the railing of the flying boat, deeply worried. "We must catch up to the Ghost King immediately..."

"But his treasure is too fast. We can't catch up to him at all, and we don't even know where he flew to! How can we chase after him?" Zi Wan said helplessly.

"Well..." Qingyin spoke up. "I, I can sense Star Dance's position!"

"What???" Everyone was shocked.

Qingyin pointed in a direction. "Right now, Star Dance is moving rapidly in that direction, of course, she is being forced to..."

"Qingyin, how do you know this?" Xu Chen asked.

"I was afraid of being separated from everyone again, so I gave Star Dance, Yule, and Empress each a space rune that I personally wrote. I can perceive the spatial fluctuations on them. Empress is next to me, and Yule's position naturally corresponds to Demonic Capital. So the one moving rapidly not far from us must be Star Dance!" Qingyin explained.

"You can sense the spatial fluctuations on the rune?" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm looked at Qingyin with doubt.

"I have reached an unbelievable level of understanding in the perception of time and space. I will explain it to you slowly later. We must go after him now!" Xu Chen said.

"Right!" Sakiko said, "The Ghost King is heavily injured, and the black sphere must be consuming his energy. He won't be able to fly for a long time. Once he thinks we can't catch up, he will stop! Everyone, get on my boat and let's chase after him!"

Sakiko piloted the flying boat and followed the direction guided by Qingyin.

But The Maiden of the Celestial Realm spoke up, "But what will we do once we catch up? The Ghost King should have enough time to restore his power. Jiu Mu managed to ambush him before, and even with all of us joining forces, we couldn't kill him. How can we deal with him once he regains his strength? We have exhausted all our treasures! Compared to his power, we are no match for the Ghost King!"

"Sakiko, can you help us this time, Aunt Sakiko?" Xu Chen asked.

"I... No matter what, I can't stand by and watch your good sister being captured by the Ghost King! This time, I will help!" Sakiko said.

"Hmph! Now you're willing to help? But the situation is different now. The Ghost King has restored his strength, and we won't be able to ambush him successfully anymore. Even if the four of us and Jiu Mu join forces, we are still no match for the Ghost King!" Lianhua, the Demon Empress of Asura, complained."This..." Sakuko couldn't argue back and everyone fell silent.

"Well... I do have a formation!" Kyumoku suddenly spoke up.

"A formation?"

"It's called the Four Heavenly Demoness Formation. Only four extraordinary women can form this formation, and it is extremely mysterious. Perhaps it can even rival the Ghost King!" Kyumoku said.

"What? There is such a formation? Show it to us!" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm spoke up.

"But..."

"But what? Is it difficult to cultivate?" Zhiwan asked.

"The cultivation of this formation itself is not difficult, but besides the four exceptional female warriors, it also requires a male as the central commander of the formation!" Kyumoku lowered his head.

The Maiden of the Celestial Realm hesitated for a moment and said, "Although I don't want to be commanded by a man, the situation is too critical. Kyumoku, you can command us!"

Kyumoku lowered his head and pondered for a while but didn't say anything.

"What's wrong? Why are you so indecisive, Kyumoku! Speak!" Lianhua urged.

Kyumoku thought about it and said, "This matter is not that simple. As the central commander, this man not only needs to have powerful spiritual strength but also must have mutual affection with the four women in order for the formation to be successfully activated!"

"What???" The Maiden of the Celestial Realm blushed. Although Kyumoku was tall and handsome, she couldn't bring herself to have mutual affection with this man. "This..."

"Kyumoku!" Zhiwan angrily said, "Are you deliberately saying this because you have feelings for our sisters?"

"Hehe!" Kyumoku calmly smiled, "Even if you want me to take on this role, I cannot do it. Since my younger sister died tragically at the hands of the Ghost King, I have become disillusioned. I can't kill the Ghost King and resolve my grievances, so I can no longer have feelings for any woman. Therefore, even if you want something to happen between us, I cannot do it. Although I have the formation, I cannot set it up with all of you!"

"Then why did you say so much? It's just nonsense!" Zhiwan scolded.

"Hehe, although I cannot do it, there is still another man here!" Kyumoku chuckled and looked down.

"What???" The gazes of the Four Beauties of the Dark Realm simultaneously turned toward Xu Chen.

"Huh???" Xu Chen, who had been listening as if he had nothing to do with it, looked blank.
