Trembling At A High Altitude

Li Bai muttered under his breath, and with a 'lock', the Sword Array rose from the ground and locked onto the trembling Ranged Evil Ghost. Then, with a 'grind', the Sword Array spun crazily and gradually shredded the black robe and the Ghost Body of the Ranged Evil Ghost into pieces.

Finally, a 'slash' ended the battle.

Li Teng was dumbfounded as he watched.

This still wasn't their full strength, was it?

If a few more Magical Treasures were added, how could one fight against such people?

Unless… all the Ghost-Series Magical Treasures obtained from those previously killed bosses were given to Li Teng, maybe then he might barely stand a chance against them.

It wasn't just Li Teng.

Xiang Yu, Han Xin, Bear Big, Bear Two, Cui Hua, and others, upon witnessing this scene, also felt a tremor in their hearts.

This was the gap!

A gap so large that either Li Bai or Bald Qiang could easily handle all five of them in a single bout!

How many similar ghost-scripted dramas had these two freaks played through to have cultivated such formidable strength?

Li Bai again moved faster than Bald Qiang, grabbing the Nether Lightning Staff first.

Watching as veins bulged on Bald Qiang's forehead, Li Bai chuckled and tossed the staff to Bald Qiang.

The veins on Bald Qiang's forehead then receded.

"Don't hold back when we fight the Ten-Turned Ghost King," Li Bai also set the condition to Bald Qiang.

"Alright," Bald Qiang readily agreed.

For people like them, a verbal agreement was enough.

Whoever grabbed the staff owned it, Li Bai took it, and even if Bald Qiang was angry, he couldn't complain.

Now that Li Bai had directly given it to Bald Qiang, it counted as a favor.

As Bald Qiang owed him one, he naturally had to give his all when fighting the Ten-Turned Ghost King.

Although the first kill for the Ten-Turned Ghost King had already been claimed, the rewards for others were still extremely generous.

...

Li Bai and Bald Qiang together nearly instant-killed the Ranged Evil Ghost, but when they turned back to join the others in dealing with the Warrior Evil Ghosts, it still consumed an immense amount of time.

The defense of the Ghost Armor was unusually strong.

Especially the Nether Iron Armor coalesced after the Transformative Realm, was as solid as a rock.

Even using the Sword Array and various other Magical Treasures to trap them, breaking through their Battle Armor still required a massive amount of time to accumulate and wear down.

Li Teng, who was wandering nearby, vibrated his wrist, receiving the rewards from the Ranged Evil Ghost.

"Decryption successful!"

"Life Resource Points obtained: 48,126 points."

"..."

"Soul Power Skill obtained: Nether Lightning LV7."

"..."

"Soul Power Skill obtained: Ghost Healing Art LV9."

Half an hour later, the two Warrior Evil Ghosts fell to the ground.

Li Teng, besides gaining another ninety thousand or so Life Resource Points, didn't learn any new skills.

...

After a brief rest, under Li Bai's lead, the group headed for the mountain summit.

The further they progressed towards the summit, the surrounding area became more desolate and decayed.

A chilling feeling that emanated from deep within couldn't be shaken off.

"The Ten-Turned Ghost King, are we going to kill the final boss now?" Li Teng was very excited.

Those following behind Li Bai and Bald Qiang were also looking forward to it.

This was an event that would go down in the history of ghost films of the same type in Shadow City!

After all, the number of people or teams that had defeated the Ten-Turned Ghost King could be counted on fewer than ten fingers.

Would they become one of them?

"What are the characteristics of the Ten-Turned Ghost King?" Han Xin asked Li Bai as they walked.

The upcoming battle, although led by Li Bai and Bald Qiang, they still wanted to contribute their efforts.

The more they understood, the better they were mentally prepared in advance.

"All of the Ten-Turned Ghost King's Soul Power Skills have reached the Transformative Realm. Once the Soul Power Skills reach the Transformative Realm, they can directly refine the Soul Power into various Magical Treasures, which are indestructible, inexhaustible, and everlasting," Li Bai answered Han Xin.

"Damn! How are we supposed to fight that?" Han Xin couldn't help but think of the terror of various Magical Treasures.

"We will exhaust him with Magical Treasures and grind him down with Divine Weapons, fighting with all our might. Even if we can't win, there will be no regrets."

"Moreover, the Ten-Turned Ghost King is ultimately just an NPC. If he were an actor like us with such formidable strength, I would admit defeat outright."

"However, since he is an NPC, there will always be some weaknesses that can be exploited. I have already grasped most of his weaknesses and will point them out to you during the battle," Li Bai answered Han Xin.

Everyone else remained silent.

It was unclear how many Magical Treasures Li Bai had accumulated, but since he dared to suggest exhausting the Ten-Turned Ghost King with Magical Treasures, it was certain that he had quite a few.

"If we can't kill him, wouldn't all those Magical Treasures be wasted?" Bear Big also spoke up and asked Li Bai a few questions.

"The Ten-Turned Ghost King has ten forms. Each time it is killed, it transforms and each revolution has a different form. Each time it transforms, its strength greatly increases, but each killing also comes with a reward," this time it was Bald Qiang who answered Bear Big.

It seemed that among the people present, only Li Bai and Bald Qiang had previously attempted to challenge the Ten-Turned Ghost King.

Listening to their conversation, Li Teng couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

All Soul Power Skills in the Transformative Realm?

Using Soul Power to refine Magical Treasures out of thin air? Indestructible, inexhaustible, and everlasting Magical Treasures?

...

Finally, they arrived at the mountaintop.

The mountaintop was a palace.

The dark clouds were almost directly above their heads, oppressively looming over the palace, making the entire palace look ominously gloomy.

After entering through two front halls, they reached the large main hall.

The Ghost King, clad in Nether Dark Gold Battle Armor, was sitting on the throne at the main hall.

Like a statue.

It would not leave the throne unless they approached within a certain distance.

At this distance, ranged attacks could not harm it.

"First Tier: Nether Ice Spear, the Ghost King will condense Soul Power into a spear-type Magical Treasure."

"But it will take off its Battle Armor. So, in the first tier, its defense is very low, but its movement speed is very fast, making it hard to lock onto for an attack, indirectly compensating for its defensive shortcoming."

"Its weakness is that every so often, it will throw the Nether Ice Spear in its hand, then condense a second Nether Ice Spear."

"The shaft of the Nether Ice Spear is very thin, but it explodes as it flies, causing extremely powerful freezing damage to everything within two meters of its radius. Before it throws the Nether Ice Spear in its hand, I will sense the energy fluctuations and roughly determine the direction of the spear's throw. When you hear the reminder, immediately use a displacement skill to dodge out of the attack path of the Nether Ice Spear."

"While it is throwing the first Nether Ice Spear and condensing a second Nether Ice Spear, its movements will become sluggish and it won't have much attack power. This is our best opportunity to deal heavy damage."

"Just by seizing a dozen or so of these opportunities, we can grind down its first tier."

"After the first tier is dead, it will turn into a solid, egg-shaped mist ball, which cannot be attacked. It will awaken after ten minutes and transform into the Second Revolution."

"At that time, I will tell you the weaknesses of its Second Revolution form."

After saying all this, Li Bai, carrying his long sword, charged toward the throne of the Ten-Turned Ghost King.
