"City God" thought that this rookie Colonel would be scared and would run away,
But he actually saw an emotion in his eyes.
Excitement.
Yes, excitement.
This caused a strong unease to rise in his heart.
And this unease was quickly confirmed.
At this moment, a throng of Ghosts, with demonic sounds flooding one's ears, showing their fangs and claws, were rushing to attack.
But in Chen Yuan's eyes, they were simply Luck Points.
The pillow comes when one feels drowsy.
Since they had gathered together,
He would not be polite.
The Elixir Field Furnace in his Dantian began to roar.
"Buzz"
True Qi on the surface of his body trembled.
Gang Qi rapidly spun,
And the Sword Qi nurtured within, surged out.
"Sss sss sss"
The air erupted with explosive sounds.
Meanwhile, a pair of large fists moved like thunderbolts,
By the time these fanged and clawed Ghosts realized something was wrong,
It was already too late.
They were either sliced into several pieces by the Sword Qi, dispersing into wisps of green smoke,
Or blown up by a punch from the Devil Suppressing Fist,
Only piercing ghostly screams still echoed in the City God Temple.
At the same time, the Banshan Tiger Talisman in Chen Yuan's Mud Ball kept buzzing.
"Slain a demon, Luck Points +1"
"Slain Snake Bone Woman, Luck Points +1"
"Slain Green-faced Child..."
It vibrated seven times in a row.
Accompanied by the fact that those noisy and ferocious Ghosts from just before, were now all scattered to the wind.
After all, each of Chen Yuan's punches and sword strikes was the result of Qi Cultivation Great Success.
How could these Ghosts at Gathering Form (First Realm of the Ghost Path), or even without Gathering Form, withstand this?
They couldn't!
And now, the interior of the main hall suddenly became quiet.
Only one man and one ghost remained.
The "City God" looked at Chen Yuan with shock and uncertainty.
"You... how come...?"
Why had this guy's energy suddenly become stronger than his?
He had been secretly feasting on the human incense for several months and was only a little away from achieving Great Success in Killing Aura.
What gave this guy the right?
"How come, like a rat sneaking food from the sewers, you can't even speak now that you've been stealing the incense of the human realm?"
Chen Yuan raised his eyebrow while taking advantage of the old ghost's moment of stupefaction.
He flicked a strand of Sword Qi from his hand.
"Slash!"
In the blink of an eye, the Sword Qi viciously struck the old ghost's chest.
"Ding"
A sound of metal clashing was heard,
Followed by the old ghost's human-like facade shattering like a mirror.
Black Killing Aura surged out from within.
It looked quite fierce.
The "City God" saw Chen Yuan's sneak attack and flew into a furious rage,
"Cowardly, sneak attack!"
He bellowed angrily, the black Killing Aura billowing furiously.
Following that, it transformed into numerous black venomous snakes, shooting out.
"To deal with an old ghost like you, why bother with any sense of justice? Killing you is the point."
Chen Yuan sneered.
His fists shattered the Killing Aura inch by inch, rapidly closing the distance.
The old ghost grew more terrified as they fought; this guy was like a brute.
Unconsciously, a sense of retreat crept into his mind.
In this critical moment, one of the old ghost's arms was caught by Chen Yuan's counter grip.
Then, with a fierce tug,
He actually tore off the old ghost's arm raw.
Following that,
The other one.
After that, he spat out,
Sword light pierced straight through the old ghost's chest, creating a hole as big as a bowl.
And all of this happened in the time it takes a spark to fly.
The old ghost cried out in pain, anger in its mouth, spitting out a gust of green mist.
Chen Yuan retreated explosively.
Wherever the green mist passed, the air made a sizzling dissonant sound, and everything it touched was corroded away,
Clearly, it was extremely poisonous.
And across from him, after the old ghost had driven back Chen Yuan, his eyes filled with resentment, he sneered:
"You think that's enough to kill me?"
"That's because you know nothing of the Ghostly Divine Power."
As he spoke, black killing aura spilled from the torn limb, regrowing flesh and blood, and quickly a new arm formed.
Then, he gave Chen Yuan a fierce grin, almost gnashing his teeth:
"Wait and see, next time I'll flay and debone you."
After saying this, "bang," he transformed into a cloud of black mist and plunged into the ground, disappearing without a trace.
But the next second,
Chen Yuan stomped on the ground and threw a fierce punch at the earth a few meters away.
Then he yanked outwards.
He forcibly dragged that cloud of black mist up from the ground.
From within came the old ghost's cry of shock:
"How is that possible?"
"How did you break my Escape Technique?"
Chen Yuan was nearly laughing to death.
"This is what you call Ghostly Divine Power?"
"Please, next time try not to talk tough with such a loose mouth."
Having said this, his fists rained down like fury.
Ready to completely grind down the Yin God of the old ghost.
Finally, with the old ghost's miserable scream, the black mist exploded into a burst of flame, vanishing without a trace.
As for Chen Yuan, his Mud Ball vibrated.
"Slay one Second Realm minor-achieved ghost, Luck Points +4."
This old ghost was close to achieving Great Success in Ghostly Evil, a bit stronger than that Demon Seed but weaker than the Human Demon who swallowed the Demon Seed.
Four points.
Reasonable enough.
Calculating it, from this alone he gained eleven Luck Points.
A flash of brilliance in Chen Yuan's eyes.
He took a look at the progress of the Inner Scripture Diagram,
Seventy-five percent.
This time, he should be able to advance to Perfect Lian Qi.
Thinking this, he gestured with one hand
The green lamp still flickered quietly on the ground.
His curiosity about this thing was growing stronger.
It suited him quite well.
This made him suddenly think of that little squirrel and he couldn't help but smile.
Wondering if the little critter couldn't sleep out of annoyance.
.What he didn't know was,
At the same time,
At night, a White Fox and a "leather ball" stealthily entered the county town.
The White Fox hopped from roof to roof, and the "leather ball" flew above it.
Before long, they arrived at a courtyard filled with green bamboo.
The White Fox stopped here and let out a soft cry.
The "leather ball" rolled head-first to the ground and pointed at the courtyard towards the White Fox.
"Chirp chirp"
The White Fox shook its head fearfully, refusing to enter.
The "leather ball" chirped a few times, then fluttered about in the sky, hesitating at the gateway.
Finally, it tentatively floated inside.
Floating towards the house rooftop.
Then, it let itself go slack.
"Pop" – it fell onto the rooftop.
Landing on the tiles, it made a noise.
That immediately startled several dogs into barking.
"Whisk"
The squirrel's fur bristled, and it instantly turned into a shadow, hiding in the chimney.
Once the barking stopped, a fluffy paw reached out from the chimney's edge, huffily shaking its fur
Then, its ears quivered, listening to the sounds inside the house.
After a good while,
It glided softly from the rooftop into the house.
Inside the chamber,
The little creature first moved cautiously, twitching its ears rapidly, then gradually relaxed.
Until it was sure that the dreadful person wasn't there.
It began to scamper and search all over the house.
Until it had turned the entire house inside out.
And still hadn't found its belonging.
At this time, the White Fox called from outside, seemingly in a hurry.
The little creature's fur bristled, its eyes rotating quickly before it darted toward the kitchen.
Moments later, the little creature, belly full, sauntered out of the courtyard.
After a chittering exchange with the White Fox.
The two little demons returned along the same path they came.
