The cyan-skinned Great Ghost Priest had already planned to kill Claire.
However, a chill ran down his spine, and his body violently trembled when he saw the wolf tooth that the Eye Spirit showed him.
Meanwhile, the other eleven Great Ghost Priests just watched everything for fun. However, they too got surprised when they saw the wolf tooth as well.
The creatures in the Night View Island had seen the necklace of wolf teeth in their minds.
There were very powerful fluctuations in the Night View Island every two hundred days and nights, even if they did not use their spiritual senses. On that day, no one could go out because the necklace of wolf teeth appeared in everyone's mind. That day was a day full of pain for all the creatures in the Night View Island.
Many legends about the wolf teeth had spread across the Night View Island.
It was said that they were the teeth of the master of Ghost Mountain.
Those thirteen teeth chewed up anyone who died into pieces.
Some creatures saw them as totems and worshipped them. After they captured their prey, they pulled out all their teeth and fashioned them into the shape of wolf teeth, then embedded them on tall totems.
As for the wolf teeth's real origin story, the people outside the Ghost Mountain did not know about it, unlike the Great Ghost Priests in the Ghost Mountain.
Their life's significance rested on those thirteen wolf teeth. They were their tasks and the Ghost Master's obsession.
Now, the reason the Ghost Master hadn't woken up yet was that he had lost these wolf teeth.
His obsession was to find his greatest magic treasure, the Thirteen Teeth Necklace.
As its name suggested, it was a necklace inlaid with thirteen wolf teeth.
However, the Thirteen Teeth Necklace had long been missing, and now, only three real teeth remained in the Ghost Mountain.
After the creatures in the Night View Island fused with the hatred-level Treacherous Beings, they were led into a special hall. In the center of the hall was a wolf tooth.
The Great Ghost Priests had to remember the aura of this wolf tooth, then find the other teeth.
It was an order from the Ghost Master.
Of course, the Ghost Master hadn't awakened and was still in a dead sleep.
Yet, he instinctively began to collect the wolf teeth!
And his strategy was correct.
The Ghost Mountain was known for its richness in resources.
With the Ghost Mountain's support, the Great Ghost Priests who fused with the hatred-level Treacherous Beings could search the Three Purities Stage and find all the wolf teeth one by one.
At first, two Great Ghost Priests had completed their tasks and brought back two wolf teeth from the Three Purities Stage.
Unfortunately, since the passageway of the Night View Island had gotten destroyed, they could not leave the island.
That was why there were only three wolf teeth in the mountain.
Naturally, the newly selected Great Ghost Priests felt dejected.
After all, they had searched every part of the Night View Island, but to no avail.
Because they could not find the wolf teeth, they were punished and imprisoned in the Ghost Mountain.
That was why it was quite hard for the new Great Ghost Priests to leave the Ghost Mountain these years.
They suffered bitterly, while the Ghost Master himself had given up on himself. He had lost hope on awakening.
However, a group of strangers suddenly appeared, and one of them brought a wolf tooth. Of course, the Great Ghost Priests could not contain their excitement.
Their memories of the wolf tooth's aura were still fresh in their minds.
Just then, the cyan-skinned Great Ghost Priest's body trembled. He jumped down from the upper layer, then stooped down and smelled the wolf tooth.
"It's quite similar.
But the aura of the energy is different from that of the wolf tooth," he said.
Although he was also ecstatic, he was worried.
"Each wolf tooth contains bloodline power, and the bloodline of each wolf tooth is different. Thus, the aura of the energy is naturally different," the Eye Spirit explained.
"May I verify it?" the cyan-skinned Great Ghost Priest asked.
"Sure," said the Eye Spirit.
He had a total of ten wolf teeth in his hands. Even if he gave the cyan-skinned Great Ghost Priest one, he still had nine left.
"But there is one condition," said Claire.
Upon hearing those words, Zen and the others felt their hearts sank.
When the Great Ghost Priests decided to intervene, he and the others finally felt hopeful.
