Chapter 612: Chapter 422: So the rumors are true!_2
“Male ghosts first rape and then kill, female ghosts are taken as concubines after being raped…”
“Ding!”
“Ghost Immortal receives shock from Golden Immortal, merit points +10000.”
“Ding!”
“Vicious ghost receives fright, merit points +1000.”
“Ding…”
Consecutive system prompts ring in Xu Yang’s mind. Although a single ghost only provides a small number of merit points for Xu Yang, Red Robes only provide 50 points and Ghost Kings provide 100 points.
But there are just too many ghosts!
Such a pity…
Having many ghosts has its drawbacks, like that Red Robe female ghost with her small courage. After a scream, she turns around to run. Xu Yang sends a sword from a distance to subdue her, his face in pain, and says: “Dear ghosts, you’re surrounded by me, so please don’t think about running away, okay?”
However, that sword makes the already terrified ghosts even more fearful. As they frantically supply merit points for Xu Yang, one ghost screams: “Everyone split up and run! I don’t believe that Northwest Hammer King has three heads and six arms to kill us all!”
That screaming ghost is a Ghost King!
He is quite sneaky.
Calling for everyone to scatter and run.
But he doesn’t move himself.
It isn’t until about thirty or forty ghosts have scattered and fled that he finally turns into a wisp of black smoke and rushes towards the ground below.
Xu Yang chuckles lightly.
He flicks his finger, and a sword aura separates from his fingertip.
At first, the sword aura is only about one foot long, but in an instant it turns into a hundred feet long and then splits into thirty-seven separate sword auras!
Puchi puchi puchi!!!
One escaped ghost after another is shattered by the sword auras and turns into wisps of green smoke before dissipating completely.
Only that ghost who turned into black smoke and rushed into the earth dodged a bullet. Overjoyed, he thinks triumphantly: “This Northwest Hammer King is nothing more than a false reputation… I died in a mudslide in my past life, and after my transformation into a ghost, I have the ability to burrow into the earth. As long as I can get underground, I can escape this mortal realm!”
Swoosh!
The black smoke is extremely fast and plunges into the ground in an instant.
However, just as it burrows into the earth, it is bounced back out.
From beneath the earth, another “Xu Yang” emerges.
He has a smile on his face, and says indifferently: “Although I, Xu Yang, don’t possess three heads and six arms, I am quite proficient in Daoist Sect’s 72 Earth Devils Skill, one of which is the [Divide] divine power. So, splitting my body into parts is something I can still do.”
“No!”
The Ghost King screams in horror, trying to drill back into the ground, but is caught by the ankle by Xu Yang’s “double” who yanks him out and slams him heavily onto the ground.
Swoosh!
Up in the sky.
A large iron hammer falls, landing heavily beside the Ghost King.
It’s Xu Yang, who has thrown his iron hammer to his “double”. His “double” picks up the iron hammer, laughing sinisterly: “Kid, do you really think you’re so clever? Today, I’ll let you know what it means to be unable to live or die!”
Bang!
The iron hammer slams down.
The Ghost King releases a wretched scream and cries out: “Ahhh, it hurts, it hurts… Daoist Master, spare me, Daoist Master, spare me!”
Xu Yang’s “double”
Turns a deaf ear, wielding the hammer and slamming it down one after another.
He displays perfect control over his strength; with each hammer blow, the Ghost King is left wanting to live and die, but never actually meets his end!
“Ding!”
“Earth Ghost receives fright, merit points +100, Earth Escape Skill +1.”
“Ding!”
“Earth Ghost receives fright, merit points +100, Earth Escape Skill +1.”
“Ding!”
“Ghost Immortal receives shock, merit points +10000.”
“Ding…”
Consecutive system prompts ring in Xu Yang’s mind. There are merit points provided by the tortured Ghost King, as well as from the many Yin spirits and fierce ghosts in the sky. Even that Ghost Immortal has goosebumps, shocked by Xu Yang’s operation.
And Xu Yang…
Has an idea in his heart.
“Earth Escape Skill+1?”
“Is this a Bug?”
“My comprehension of the earth element dao has already reached the level of a great dao, requiring a whopping 500,000 merit points for each upgrade, but I can continuously brush [Earth Escape Skill+1] from this Ghost King’s body. At this rate, wouldn’t my understanding of the earth element dao become immortal in a matter of minutes?”
However, Xu Yang soon discovered a problem.
Although they were all “Earth Escape Skill+1”.
The ones obtained from the Ghost King seemed to contribute significantly less to his comprehension of the “dao of the earth element”.
About 50 instances of “Earth Escape Skill+1” were equal to the single upgrade he could achieve by spending 500,000 merit points. This was still pretty good, as each “Earth Escape Skill+1” obtained from the Ghost King would save him 10,000 merit points.
His Avatar kept torturing the Ghost King continuously.
Xu Yang looked at the ghosts gathered before him and calmly said, “Heaven is merciful, and I, Xu Yang, am not a bloodthirsty person… Although you all want to slaughter Jiyuan City and deserve to die a thousand times, I can give you a chance to live.”
Upon hearing these words, the entire group of ghosts couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.
However, the Ghost Immortal clenched his teeth and scoffed, “Xu Yang, you may be famous in the world of ghosts and monsters, but don’t think it can frighten me!”
Having the chance to survive is good.
But this Ghost Immortal had a strong sense of pride and cared too much about his reputation.
He couldn’t simply follow Xu Yang’s orders and flee, how would he face his own subordinates afterward?
So, he decided to use the “reverse psychology” tactic and coldly said, “I’ve heard that every soul that falls into your hands ends up dead or disabled, but I don’t believe it… Xu Yang, if you’re a man, give me three years. After three years, I will fight a life-or-death duel with you. If I lose, I will kill myself, without you lifting a finger!”
Three years…
He wouldn’t be able to defeat Xu Yang!
However, according to what Lord Demon had said, it would take at most three years for the Netherworld Demons to dominate the human world. By then, he, the Northwest Hammer King would probably have grass growing on his grave!
“???”
Xu Yang was speechless.
Damn!
Do you think you’re Xiao Yan?
Making a three-year agreement with the Daoist Master?
Xu Yang held the Jiao-slaying Sword, and with a single blow from afar, killed the Ghost Immortal, spitting and cursing, “tui, a dog-like creature, a mere Ghost Immortal, without a single skill… What use are you to me?”
Other Ghost Kings could provide him with “Earth Escape Skill+1”, but you, a freaking Ghost Immortal without any special abilities, dared to prattle on?
Three years?
Who will even remember you three years from now?
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you have meritoriously transcended the Ghost Immortal and received a reward: Merit value+100,000.”
Hearing the system prompt in his mind, Xu Yang brandished the Jiao-slaying Sword and looked at the 600 or so ghosts left, saying, “Listen, when I say run, you start running towards Wangwu Ghost Market!”
“You run while I chase and kill.”
“Of course,”
“I won’t use my full power, and I’ll slow down my ghost-killing speed. Out of the 600 of you, about 20 should be able to survive in the end.”
The ghosts’ faces changed, and one Red Robe-level fool angrily said, “Out of 600 ghosts, only 20 can survive… You might as well kill us all!”
Bang!
Niu Mang appeared next to the ghost in a flash, stomped him into a mess with his hoof, and angrily said, “Moo… You dog-like thing, just listen to what my master says! Whoever dares to talk nonsense, I’ll be the first to send him to heaven!”
Under intimidation, the group of ghosts didn’t dare to resist.
They then began to frantically flee for their lives.
However, no matter how they ran, Xu Yang followed closely behind.
And occasionally drawing his sword, every sword stroke taking a few ghost lives. Nobody knew if the next one to die would be them!
Under these circumstances, the fear in the ghosts’ hearts can be imagined…
The constant system prompts made the smile on Xu Yang’s face grow wider.
He laughed heartily.
A single sword stroke killed three ghosts and he said, “My darlings… Run, the faster you run the better… If anyone runs too slow and gets caught by me… Well, hehehe!”
Pu-chi!
Another sword stroke took out one more ghost.
“…..”
Niu Mang, on whose back Ma Long sat, was dumbstruck and mumbled, “Holy Cow!… The rumors are true, Old Xu’s really mentally unstable!”
