Online Game: Crazy Skeleton

Though Wang Cai was at a disadvantage, the current situation was different from before. As an artifact beast, it directly used the skill [Luck Suppression II], reducing the full attributes of the surrounding ghost soldiers by 30%, which even significantly affected the Ghost Venerable Ancestor.

Moreover, it used the skill [Ghost Sedan Protection], creating ghost sedan phantoms around it. No matter how the ghost soldiers attacked, its health did not decrease at all. Instead, it absorbed considerable damage, maintaining full health.

"This..."

Upon seeing the ghost sedan phantoms, the Ghost Venerable Ancestor was visibly moved, incredulously staring at Wang Cai, trembling, "Is this the Supreme Ghost Sedan?"

"Master has good eyes, I’m impressed~!"

The fact was obvious, so Su Ran had no intention of hiding it. As he spoke, he activated the special effect of the [Ghost Venerable Mark] on the spot.

The Ghost Venerable Mark had the aura of the Ghost Venerable and could intimidate ghosts, reducing the full attributes of Ghost Clan monsters within a hundred meters by 15%, excluding those above the Ghost Prison General. Moreover, it also had a certain chance to control Ghost Clan targets, with no limit on quantity, for a duration of one hour.

Under the influence of the Ghost Venerable Mark, thousands of ghost soldiers defected on the battlefield, attacking their own kind.

Taking this chance, Wang Cai broke out of the encirclement and charged at the Ghost Venerable Ancestor. This was a delicious soul feast, not to be easily missed!

"So that’s it..."

The Ghost Venerable Ancestor flew into the air, dodging the attacked vines, and coldly said, "Human, I have seen through it. Your mongrel absorbed the Supreme Ghost Sedan, thus acquiring the ability to absorb souls..."

"Enough talk, come down for me!"

Su Ran had no time to listen to the old man’s prattle. He immediately used the Six Harmony Magnetic Array, alternating attraction and repulsion, severely disrupting the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s balance, causing him to fall from the sky.

"Woof woof!"

Wang Cai seized this rare opportunity, pouncing on the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, vigorously absorbing his soul power.

"Get off!!!"

The Ghost Venerable Ancestor was about to unleash terrifying might, only to find that all the energy in his body had completely gone out of control, unable to perform even the basic skills.

In frustration, he looked towards Su Ran, only to see a statue of a Buddha at this guy’s feet, emitting a faint glow.

Undoubtedly, to stop the Ghost Venerable Ancestor from using his skills, Su Ran directly used Namo Amitabha, consuming a precious opportunity.

[Namo Amitabha] (Special) (Durability 2/10)

Possesses unpredictable abilities, effective when placed on the ground.

Within a 5x5 area, no skills can be used, lasting three minutes, with a cooldown of one hour.

Note: Each use consumes one durability point. Once durability reaches 0, the item disappears. Use cautiously.

Wang Cai’s soul absorption ability remained unaffected, greedily devouring the energy inside the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, relishing it immensely.

"Damn it!!!"

The Ghost Venerable Ancestor grabbed Wang Cai’s head, attempting to throw him off, but Wang Cai stubbornly clamped onto his neck, refusing to let go. No matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t shake off this damned mongrel, igniting fear within him as he felt death closer than ever.

"Ghost Venerable Master, I will help you!"

At this crucial moment, Shuxin naturally commanded her pet Bone-eating Beast to charge over. Her target was not Wang Cai, but Su Ran in the front.

In Shuxin’s view, the Bone-eating Beast perfectly countered the Undead Clan, and Su Ran was an undead skeleton, certainly no match for the Bone-eating Beast. Moreover, the current Bone-eating Beast had already been raised to the Platinum Level. To deal with an undead skeleton, wasn’t this a walk in the park?!

Only by killing this Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, would the mongrel also suffer, enforcing a forced recall to the pet space, and naturally, the Ghost Venerable Ancestor would regain his freedom. In this way, she would indirectly save the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s life, very likely receiving the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s reward!

Even without a reward, it didn’t matter, as long as she could kill Su Ran, she would be quite satisfied.

"Get out of the way!"

Su Ran’s focus was on the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, having no time to deal with the Bone-eating Beast, he stepped out of the area covered by the Buddha statue and then used the [Forced Recall] skill, throwing it onto the Bone-eating Beast.

[Forced Recall] LV1 (Special)

There is a 50% chance to forcibly recall the opponent’s pet, rendering it unable to be summoned again for ten minutes. The skill has a cooldown of 5 minutes.

Fortunately, the system showed Su Ran some favor, as the Forced Recall skill took effect again, making the Bone-eating Beast disappear instantly, leaving it with no ability to respond.

This scene left Shuxin naturally dumbfounded, unable to believe this was true, as the mighty Platinum Bone-eating Beast was easily taken down by Su Ran. This was absurd!

She glanced at the Bone-eating Beast, sealed in the pet space, feeling like crying. She had spent a lot of effort on the Bone-eating Beast to deal with Su Ran, finally raising it to the Platinum Level, just to restrain him in battle.

Who would have thought that the Platinum Bone-eating Beast couldn’t even survive one round under Su Ran’s hand? Only now did she realize that her previous thoughts had been too naive...

Su Ran had no time to deal with this woman, using the skill [Hot-blooded Ferocity] to increase his critical chance by 30% and received a 30% critical damage bonus before launching a barrage of fireballs towards the Ghost Venerable Ancestor.

"Protect the Ghost Venerable Master!"

Seeing the unfavorable situation, Shuxin naturally commanded her subordinates to block in front of the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, using their flesh and blood to withstand this series of fireballs. Bodies hit the ground one after another.

Due to Su Ran’s involvement, the tide of the territorial battle gradually turned, and Yin Si’s grave expression also eased, being very satisfied with Su Ran’s performance.

But at this time, Dai Xuan, leading his subordinates, broke through the Thunder Grid, and even the Strange Demon Bone Cauldron did not last long, allowing him to rush into the territory, killing the Skeleton Archers on the city walls, substantially boosting the Ghost Clan’s forces.

"Quick, kill this mongrel, and save the Ghost Venerable Master!"

Shuxin naturally saw that Dai Xuan had returned with his army, and just in time. She immediately informed Dai Xuan of the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s dire situation, hoping he could solve Wang Cai and rescue the Ghost Venerable Ancestor.

"Brothers, it’s time to make a contribution, all of you kill!!!"

Under Dai Xuan’s command, the warriors charged over, targeting the mongrel.

"Hold on!"

Su Ran had high hopes for Wang Cai, letting it take the hits from the warriors. Now the main goal was to absorb souls, even if it meant death, as long as the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s soul was completely absorbed!

Fortunately, Wang Cai did not disappoint Su Ran. It had the damage transfer passive skill, which constantly triggered, frustrating the players who could only continue hacking away at Wang Cai, trying in vain to deplete its health.

Even with 5600 health points and 520 defense points, Wang Cai could not hold on for long. Under the players’ continuous attacks, Wang Cai’s health was finally emptied, dying on the spot.

But.

Before these players could even catch their breath, Wang Cai miraculously revived, and once again bit onto the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, beginning again to absorb the delicious soul energy.

Undoubtedly, this was all due to Wang Cai’s [Twin Souls] passive skill taking effect. Upon revival, Wang Cai’s health was fully restored, with a 10% attribute boost for ten seconds, which was why Su Ran hadn’t saved Wang Cai.

Under Wang Cai’s relentless drain, the Ghost Venerable Ancestor’s complexion appeared somewhat withered, aging significantly. No matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t rid himself of Wang Cai, clinging like a parasite.

"Quick, kill it!"

The players realized the severity of the situation, all hacking at Wang Cai’s back, hoping to kill the mongrel quickly and save the Ghost Venerable Ancestor.

During this time, Su Ran and the NPCs did not stop their slaughter, leaving considerable casualties among both the ghost soldiers and the player teams, their bodies absorbed into the Strange Demon Bone Cauldron, autonomously beginning the refining process.

When Wang Cai’s health was down to one-third, Su Ran finally recalled it, regretfully glancing at the Ghost Venerable Ancestor, feeling somewhat unwilling.

If not for the presence of these players, Wang Cai surely could have drained the Ghost Venerable Ancestor dry, obviating the need for the demon king’s baiting plan. Sadly, the old man wasn’t meant to die, so naturally, he had to take what he could and retreat.

"Hahaha, Brother Overturning Water, I’m back!"

At this tense moment, a cheerful voice echoed through the territory, drawing everyone’s attention.

"Banana!"
