Chapter 298: The Resurrection of the Ghosts

Naruto did not retreat but advanced, holding the Ice Soul tightly in both hands. A layer of azure light appeared on the sword. He quickly formed a seal and shouted: "Ice Escape: Ice Dragon Break!" The ice dragon transformed by the Ice Soul roared out and collided with the demonic flame.

For a moment, ice and fire intertwined, light flashed, and powerful energy rushed in all directions. Many stone figurines were shattered by this force.

However, the dragon took this opportunity and swung its huge tail like a black iron rod, smashing down towards Naruto.

Naruto's eyes flashed, he exerted force on his feet, and dodged like lightning.

He flipped in the air and rushed towards the dragon again. The Ice Soul Sword in his hand swung out sword flowers, and each sword accurately cut the dragon's body, splashing black demonic energy.

Just as Naruto was about to launch a full-strength attack, the ground collapsed further, more demonic energy gushed out from underground, and more demonic energy was faintly forming.

At this time, Ziyuan had already fallen into the middle of the collapsed formation.

Naruto became more and more anxious.

Shion, who had fallen into the abyss, still kept her eyes tightly closed, with tears sparkling in her eyes.

The bell in the chest began to flash a rich white light, and the light became brighter and brighter, like a warm and soft flame, or like a big hand gently wrapping her in it, bringing her a sense of comfort.

“Hehe, don’t cry. It is because of this light that I cannot devour you. But is this really a good thing? It will make you see things you don’t want to see. It will be the end of this world, hahaha.”

The voice seemed to come from the Netherworld, revealing endless gloom and mockery, echoing in this empty space filled with a strange atmosphere, trying to break through the protection of the white light on Ziyuan, and also causing Ziyuan's body to tremble slightly.

Naruto held the ice spirit in his hand, his body as fast as lightning, and continued to attack the dragon.

The Ice Soul cut through the air, bringing with it bursts of cold light. Every swing accurately hit the dragon's body, splashing up pieces of black demonic energy.

However, as more and more demonic energy gushed out from the ground, the surrounding air was filled with a suffocating evil aura, and new demon dragons were constantly generated.

They opened their bloody mouths, revealing their sharp fangs, roared angrily, and rushed towards Naruto.

Naruto frowned, feeling annoyed.

The evil dragon transformed from demonic energy is too difficult to deal with, like an immortal monster.

Every time he tried his best to disperse the magic dragon, the black evil energy would only dissipate briefly in the air, and not long after, it would condense again and transform into a new magic dragon.

With even stronger hatred, they pounced towards Naruto with their fangs and claws bared. Their pairs of eyes emitting red light stared at Naruto as if they wanted to eat him alive.

Just then Shion suddenly opened her eyes.

"I'm still alive, so Naruto, Naruto will..." Thinking of this, Shion opened her eyes.

At this time, Naruto had been entangled by dozens of magic dragons transformed by demonic energy. His figure kept shuttling and attacking in the encirclement of the magic dragons, but the magic dragons continued to come.

Just when Naruto was not paying attention, a demon dragon with its bloody mouth opened wide pounced on him like a black lightning and swallowed Naruto into its stomach in an instant.

The huge black figure twisted even more frantically after swallowing Naruto, as if showing off its achievements.

The air around seemed to freeze because of this scene, leaving only the deafening roars of the dragons.

When Shion noticed this, her face turned pale instantly, and her eyes were full of fear and despair.

"Hehe, hahaha, come on, little witch. Become one with me!" The evil voice of the monster sounded again, with pride and arrogance.

The entire space was filled with this horrible laughter, as if announcing that the end of the world was approaching.

Shion bit her lips tightly, her hands trembling. She looked at Naruto being swallowed by the dragon, endless sadness welled up in her heart, and the white light surrounding her suddenly dimmed with her sadness.

At this moment, the soul of the monster began to wrap around Shion tightly like a black vine. The cold and evil touch made Shion tremble all over.

Seeing the scene where Naruto seemed to be "dead", a trace of despair flashed in Shion's eyes, and her will began to weaken.

The monster seemed to sense the dawn of victory and spread more wildly, soon wrapping up Shion's entire body, leaving only her tear-stained face exposed. Her eyes gradually became empty, as if her soul was being slowly pulled out.

As Shion was devoured by the ghost's soul, an extremely strong demonic energy began to spread.

The evil energy was like a black tide, surging outwards with Ziyuan as the center. Wherever it passed, everything was stained with darkness.

Outside, the entire space vibrated violently, as if the sky was about to fall.

The Wolf King and all the tailed beasts stopped attacking. They looked towards the direction of the sealed shrine, vigilance in their eyes, and they all let out deafening roars.

Kakashi's heart tightened, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, as if an extremely terrifying power was awakening.

He frowned and immediately gave the order: "All ninjas, listen up! Stop fighting immediately and stay away from here!"

Although the ninjas didn't understand why, they quickly followed the order and retreated in the direction away from the ancestral hall. For a moment, the tense atmosphere on the battlefield became even more intense.

A few minutes later, the area centered on the ancestral hall seemed to be tightly grasped by the devil's hand. The ground began to tremble more violently, and huge cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, followed by a large-scale collapse.

The demonic energy, which was so dense that it was almost tangible, spread madly from the ground like a raging black tsunami, leaving devastation wherever it went.

The surrounding stone statues were simply unable to resist the erosion of the evil spirit. They collapsed one after another in the black waves, and in the blink of an eye they turned into powder and floated in the air.

The originally stable airflow in the sky became extremely turbulent like a frightened beast. The whistling sound was sharp and piercing, as if it was expressing a desperate wail for this horrific scene that seemed like the end of the world. The whole world seemed to be dragged into the abyss of darkness.

"Hahaha, I'm finally resurrected. Let's start fighting, humans. Millennium Kingdom, our dream is finally coming true."

The arrogant voice of the monster resounded throughout the heaven and earth, carrying with it endless evil and greed.

Its huge demonic body was looming in the demonic energy, and every movement made the earth tremble even more violently.

The surrounding space seemed to be distorted by its power, and darkness spread in all directions like a tide, swallowing everything.

Those ninjas who had not had time to evacuate were oppressed by this force and could not move, their eyes filled with fear.

Kakashi and others watched all this solemnly, and despair was written all over everyone's face.

"Failed?" Kakashi's voice was low and hoarse, as if all his strength had been drained away.

His eyes were fixed on the spreading darkness, and a hint of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
