Trembling At A High Altitude

"Clang!" A sound rang out.

Bald Qiang threw the hammer in his hand to the ground.

After heaving a long sigh, Bald Qiang tilted back his head.

In this performance, the most top-notch fighter had been hiding his strength and been by their side all along!

The power of Li Teng filled him with a sense of despair akin to looking up at a lofty mountain.

If it were Li Bai standing before him, even Li Bai at his peak state, he wouldn't give up so easily without a fight, without even resisting.

But now, standing before him was Li Teng.

Li Teng, who had slain a Ten-Turned Ghost King with a single slash.

How formidable a Ghost King was, no one among those present knew it better than he and Li Bai.

Together with Li Bai, he had fought hard for over five hours just to take down a Ninth revolution Ghost King.

Then, a Ten-Turned Ghost King, with at least twice the strength of a Ninth revolution Ghost King, was casually slain by Li Teng with a single slash.

Bald Qiang did not realize it was a charged slash.

Earlier, when he had thrown five Hellfire Bombs, Li Teng had once drawn his blade.

Drawing the blade meant he couldn't charge his attack, that was common sense.

To Bald Qiang, that slash from Li Teng seemed casual and utterly ordinary.

A simple "don't bother me," and the Ten-Turned Ghost King was slain on the spot!

It goes without saying, had that slash of Li Teng's been aimed at him instead of the Ghost King, he would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Against such a formidable opponent, he could only accept his fate if he intended to kill him.

However, speaking of which, Li Teng's strength indeed far surpassed that of both Bald Qiang and Li Bai by now.

Even without the Hell Roaring ultimate skill, Li Teng's dominance over Bald Qiang was already crushing.

Li Teng was not a Ghost King, with no script-given limitations or exploitable weaknesses.

But now, Li Teng possessed all the strength of a Ten-Turned Ghost King.

He also had over fifty years of actual combat experience.

Practically invincible.

"Have you given up?" Li Teng walked up to Bald Qiang and asked.

"Of course, do with me as you please, kill or flay," replied Bald Qiang, devoid of any will to resist before Li Teng's overwhelming power.

"I've said I would spare you once, and this time will be no exception. If you're willing to follow me, heed my orders, there's no need for me to kill you," Li Teng confirmed with Bald Qiang, his hands resting on his War Blade.

"Honored by your... senior's grace, I'm willing to follow you, to serve before and behind the saddle, ready to heed your commands," Bald Qiang hesitated for a moment, then clasped his hands and bowed to Li Teng.

"Very well, what about you guys?" Li Teng looked towards Bear Big, Bear Two, and the others.

"We... we, of... of course, will heed the senior's word, whatever... whatever you say," Bear Big stuttered in response to Li Teng.

To Li Teng, killing them was easier than crushing an ant.

Why should people make enemies of their own lives?

"I'm telling you to stop fighting and killing each other in this scenario, any objections?" Li Teng confirmed again with Bald Qiang and the others.

"None!" Bald Qiang and the others shook their heads repeatedly.

"Brother Li Bai, they have already given up their hostility towards you, so you don't need to keep fighting them either, right?" Li Teng then turned back to Li Bai.

"Please don't call me that, or I'll feel disgraced to death, Li Bai is ashamed, grateful for the senior's life-saving grace and willing to lay down my life for you!" Li Bai also paid his respects to Li Teng.

Because Li Teng spoke so formally and with such teenage pretentiousness, they had no choice but to become formal as well.

Otherwise, provoking this super-strong individual might result in them being chopped with a single slash.

"What I like most is world peace, filling the human world with love, the violence of killing and fighting is so unpleasant."

"Don't just stand there foolishly, have something to eat, then I'll take you treasure hunting."

Li Teng greeted everyone and then removed his Battle Armor and put away his War Blade.

The Ghost King possessed the ability to transform Soul Power into space, equivalent to having a storage space, enabling him to put away the War Blade, Battle Armor, and various items anytime, which was extremely convenient.

The crowd gathered around nervously.

Li Bai offered grilled meat to Li Teng to eat, while Bald Qiang hurriedly presented a leg of lamb.

Suddenly, Li Teng found he was no longer interested in grilled meat or lamb legs.

He looked at the Evil Ghost Generals he had summoned beside him, stretched out a hand, used his Bloodsucking Skill in an instant, and refined these generals into Netherworld Blood Clots, which he then swallowed whole.

His stomach no longer felt hungry, and his body was filled with energy like that of a ghost.

A satisfied smile appeared on Li Teng's face.

Li Bai and Bald Qiang, among others, watched in stunned silence, their bodies trembling.

Luckily, he only consumed ghosts, otherwise they wouldn't have been enough for even a few bites for him.

Upon hearing that Li Teng wanted to go treasure hunting, Li Bai and Bald Qiang discussed and felt that not much time was left, and the script could end at any moment; hence the most profitable action would be to accomplish the first kill of the Ghost Governor.

Of course, the difficulty was also extremely high.

Without Li Teng, Li Bai and Bald Qiang would never have considered such a plan.

But with Li Teng being so powerful, it was indeed worth a try.

"There have been quite a few teams that have challenged the Ghost Governor before."

"They have also summarized some experiences."

"You can't have a decisive battle with the Ghost Governor in the Governor's Mansion."

"The area of the Governor's Mansion gives the Ghost Governor too much of a boost, being able to instantly restore his HitPoints to full ten times over when his Hit Points fall below one third, significantly increasing the difficulty of hunting the Ghost Governor."

"There is only one place where an attack can force the Ghost Governor out of the Governor's Mansion."

"That would be the Ghost-Seal Bank, the bank of the Ghost Tribe; all the large amounts of wealth and treasures plundered from the humans by the ghosts in their centuries of incursion into the human territory are stored there."

"If we attack the Ghost-Seal Bank, and it risks being breached, the Ghost Governor will definitely come personally with a large ghost army for support. That way, we can have a decisive battle with the Ghost Governor outside the Governor's Mansion."

"Additionally, when the Ghost Governor's Hit Points fall below a third, he will activate an extremely fast displacement skill. We must kill him in this very short window of time; if he manages to return to the Governor's Mansion, his Hit Points will immediately be maxed out, rendering all our previous efforts futile."

"Most of the teams basically gave up at this point."

"Do you think you could also strike him down with One-Slash? If you can, then accomplishing the first kill of the Ghost Governor should not be a difficult task." Li Bai shared the intelligence he had gathered in detail.

Following Li Bai and Bald Qiang, Li Teng had accumulated over five million points in Life Resources, equating to living over a year in peak state.

His One-Slash was a charged attack.

The charged attack of the Hell Roaring ultimate Skill.

But he wasn't the one who had to charge up; the Death God APP helped him do that.

So as long as he didn't release that one slash, regardless of what he did, it wouldn't be interrupted.
