Nine Revolutions Star Transformation
Chapter 803 - 824: Death of the Ghost King
Chu Lin was using his most powerful martial skill to deal with his opponent. The air seemed to cool down suddenly, the atmosphere became extremely eerie, causing people to feel afraid.
The Lord of Netherworld constantly kept an eye on the movements around Chu Lin. His Nether Illusion Space only required Nether Power to maintain, but it couldn’t attack others. Otherwise, jointly killing the Ghost King with Chu Lin shouldn’t be difficult.
At this moment, Ghost Qi continuously emanated from the Ghost King’s body, instantly covering a range of several dozen meters, with ghostly heads occasionally appearing in the black Qi, emitting spine-chilling sounds.
Seeing this, the Lord of Netherworld’s face abruptly changed. Although he hadn’t seen what this martial skill was like, he had at least heard of it. The Ghost King seemed to be executing a forbidden martial skill of the Ghost Race known as the Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique.
This Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique is extremely domineering, capable of devouring human souls with immense attack power. Once executed, numerous ghostly heads appear, and these heads cannot be dispersed; they only vanish after the skill’s duration ends, making it very troublesome.
The most terrifying part is that these ghostly heads can absorb energy from attacks, making their energy increasingly fierce. Basically, no one can withstand them, but the one executing this technique also suffers severe damage, as the energy absorbed by the ghostly heads transforms into ghost Qi, entering the body. The sudden influx of massive energy is potentially fatal.
This Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique is usually used against overwhelmingly powerful opponents and only as a last resort. The energy absorbed is naturally immense. Even if not torn apart by the energy, one’s meridians could be damaged. The Ghost King was determined to kill Chu Linfeng at all costs, even if it meant severely injuring himself.
Chu Linfeng didn’t understand the dangers of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique, but the Lord of Netherworld was very aware. He urgently exclaimed, "Lin Feng, dodge quickly. This is the Ghost Race’s most powerful Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique. You can’t withstand it!"
After hearing this, Chu Linfeng was startled but had no intention of fleeing. He said to the Lord of Netherworld, "Father-in-law, don’t worry. Even if it were a hundred million Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique, I wouldn’t be concerned."
The Lord of Netherworld’s face turned green. This kid truly feared nothing, but unfortunately, he couldn’t help at the moment. He could only watch helplessly as Chu Linfeng faced the Ghost King’s attack, hoping he’d survive miraculously.
"Lin Feng, the Ghost King’s Ten Thousand Ghosts Devouring Spirit Technique is terrifying, primarily causing harm to the soul. You need to be cautious. It would be best if Chu Qing shields you, and then you can use your Star Slash. After resisting this technique, the Ghost King will definitely be weak for some time, and that’s when you should severely injure him. Make sure to seize the opportunity," said the Sword Spirit.
"Qing’er, help me withstand the Ghost King’s attack later. Whether I survive this calamity depends on you!" Chu Linfeng hastily said to Chu Qing inside the storage ring.
"Don’t worry, big brother. I’ll help you. Chu Tong can actually assist too. How about we both help you fend it off?" said Chu Qing.
"Exactly, big brother! I can help too. That guy is really bad. I could trap him in my Illusion Realm forever, but seeing you so determined to kill him, I had to relent," Chu Tong added.
"Great! With Qing’er and Tong’er defending me, I have nothing to fear. Today, we’ll work together and slay this guy! Let’s do our best!" Chu Linfeng said excitedly.
"Yeah! Let’s do our best!" Chu Qing and Chu Tong said in unison. Immediately, a faint cyan light enveloped Chu Linfeng, and outside the cyan light was a layer of faint yellow light, subtly appearing and disappearing. It was almost invisible without careful observation.
The Ghost King was ready and, seeing Chu Linfeng not dodging, was pleased. However, he knew this guy was extremely fast, so he directly used the Space Domain to eliminate the possibility of Chu Linfeng escaping.
After the Ghost King cast the Space Domain, Chu Linfeng immediately noticed it. However, with the protective defenses of Chu Qing and Chu Tong, he didn’t feel uncomfortable. He then used his Divine Sense to communicate with the elements in the Space Domain, quickly discovering that the Ghost King’s domain was the Fire Domain.
Gradually controlling the Fire Element within the Fire Domain, Chu Linfeng awaited the Ghost King’s attack, his heart both excited and nervous. Even if his strike couldn’t kill him, severely injuring him was inevitable. Injuring a Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm powerhouse was enough.
The Ghost King moved then, disappearing like a specter. A massive cloud of Ghost Qi rushed towards Chu Linfeng. "Boy, enjoy being devoured by ten thousand ghosts!" echoed the Ghost King’s voice from within the Ghost Qi.
From a distance, the Lord of Netherworld held his breath, not daring even to breathe, watching intently and hoping Chu Linfeng could evade it. The thousands of ghostly heads surged in front of Chu Linfeng, each taking different forms—a beauty, a child, an old man, a magical beast, a nether beast, and more. Any creature conceivable might appear, creating an eerie and terrifying scene.
These ghostly heads, however, were blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to approach Chu Linfeng no matter how they gnawed. Meanwhile, Chu Linfeng’s arm swelled up and heated slowly—the Qilin Arm about ready to unleash its attack, just waiting for the Ghost King’s strike to end to counterattack fiercely.
Within the Ghost Qi, the Ghost King realized something was off. The thousands of ghostly heads couldn’t harm this guy, and the duration of his martial skill was running out. Such a phenomenon was unacceptable to him, leaving him with countless questions yet no way to express them.
About a minute later, the Ghost Qi and the thousands of ghostly heads gradually vanished, revealing the Ghost King’s figure. Chu Linfeng immediately concentrated the ready Fire Element in the air onto the Ghost King, resulting in a towering flame a dozen meters high and several meters wide enveloping the Ghost King.
At the same time, the Cyan Frost Sword in his hand slashed out. The power of the Qilin Arm’s Star Slash was immense, especially when infused with Five Elements and Thunder Elements. Such a close-range attack struck the Ghost King as he barely reacted to the enormous flames on his body.
"Ah!" a heart-wrenching scream emerged from the Ghost King’s mouth. The Ghost King, unexpectedly, was cut into several pieces by Chu Linfeng. A Venerable Martial Realm Fifth Layer powerhouse perishing at the hands of a mere Saint Martial Realm Fifth Layer youth was a fact hard for anyone to accept.
Chu Linfeng also didn’t anticipate the Qilin Arm’s Star Slash to have such power. But as the Ghost King’s body fell, he seized the hand with the storage ring, removing the storage ring and placing it into his own storage ring. At this moment, the weakness and numbing sensation in his arm after using the Qilin Arm also followed...
