Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 349 - 145: System! Upgrade! The Ghost King of the Ten Halls Appears! (Mega - , Please Subscribe)_6
"This king simply refuses to follow his wishes!" The rage of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls had already materialized, quite literally so.
Around its colossal body, clusters of eerie green ghostfire spontaneously appeared out of thin air.
Making its vast ghostly shadow even more chilling to behold.
Even more terrifying!
"This king hadn’t yet crossed the Naihe Bridge when I fled, eluding the pursuit of the Yin Envoys and took refuge in a desolate place within the Netherworld where no ghosts dwell. It was then that this king learned the Netherworld is so vast that even the Ten Halls Yama cannot fully grasp it in their hands."
"It is for this reason that this king was able to cling to life in such a place and gradually rise from a mere ghost to what I am now, commanding ten Ghost Generals and thousands of Ghost Soldiers!"
"Even though not as impressive as when I was alive, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers, these ghost soldiers of The Underworld are far stronger than any ordinary mortals!"
"Especially when this king discovered a spot in this area where the barrier between here and the mortal realm is extremely thin. I resolved that once I had gathered ten thousand Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals in the Netherworld, I would break through the barrier and invade Great Zhou!"
"I’d drag the Emperor’s descendants off their high horses! Seize their throne and usurp their dynasty’s fortunes! This king had even considered whether I’d face a siege from the Underworld."
"However, this king realized that as long as I have the fortune of an era to protect me, the Ten Halls Yama of the Underworld would have no choice but to acknowledge me as the Ghost Emperor of the human realm!"
"But..."
The fury of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls had turned into a raging killing intent.
That overwhelming killing intent was entirely focused on Fan Wu. The spontaneously igniting ghostfire around grew more numerous, casting a radius of several hundred meters in a spectral green gloom.
"You’ve ruined it all," the Ghost King of the Ten Halls glared at Fan Wu with venom: "To this king, you are no different from that Emperor!"
"Then you truly flatter me," listening to the words of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls, Fan Wu finally understood why the malevolent ghost named Yuan had thought the Ghost King was always daydreaming.
Aside from possessing formidable strength, he was utterly useless in every other respect.
Because perhaps the Ghost King of the Ten Halls was genuinely too foolish.
How could he believe in something as unreliable as a life-exemption token?
Oh!
Fan Wu remembered.
Back when he was in Nanjun’s government office, Si Ma Hundred Households had mentioned to him that the head of the Fu Clan in Imperial City also had a life-exemption token bestowed by the Founding Holy Emperor... He wondered if the head of the Fu Clan believed this life-exemption token would actually work.
"Come and die!!!" The Ghost King of the Ten Halls could feel that the multitude of Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Generals it had swallowed were now perfectly integrated into its own body.
The reason it had spoken so much to Fan Wu was to digest these forces, to enhance its own power just a bit more!
After fully assimilating this power for this period.
Its Power Attribute had gone from 141 points to 145!
The gain of four additional Attribute Points.
That was quite the considerable increase.
On either side of the immense ghostly body of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls, an enormous arm stretched out. Each giant arm clenched into a fist and thundered towards Fan Wu with deadly intent.
Its attack came without warning, intent on finishing Fan Wu in one blow, not wishing to give Fan Wu the chance to struggle.
For the Ghost King of the Ten Halls could not fail to recognize Fan Wu’s strength—the king could feel a sense of threat emanating from him.
It was precisely because of this sense of threat that it had gone to great lengths to stall for time.
To become even more powerful!
Only in this way...could it be almost certain of capturing the cultivator before it.
But what it didn’t know was.
This was exactly what Fan Wu wanted to see.
This was what Fan Wu had indulged.
In the face of the Ghost King’s sudden attack, Fan Wu showed not a trace of fear; his face bore an interested and excited grin that hadn’t faded from start to finish. His smile only grew more ferocious and resplendent as the Ghost King grew stronger.
Fan Wu didn’t retreat a single step, for the iron fists coming from both sides were nothing to him.
Because—
"System!"
"Add points!"
Yes!
Even though Fan Wu’s current "Power" attribute was already a notch above that of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls, he still chose to use his Free Attribute Points to give himself a wave of increases to his "Power" attribute.
Don’t ask.
If you ask, it’s because he has a lot of attribute points.
Capricious!
Fan Wu, having harvested a large wave of evil spirits, racked up over a dozen Free Attribute Points.
And with his own existing balance of Free Attribute Points, his balance reached an impressive 42.489 points!
When it came to adding points to his attributes,
Fan Wu was anything but stingy!
[Name: Fan Wu]
[Life: 135.02＋ (＋10％)]
[Power: 135.02＋ (＋30％)]
[Skills: Star Lodging Sword Technique lv2 (0/100), Ghost-Killing Path lv1 (0/50), Annihilation Finger lv1 (0/50)]
[Free Attribute Points: 23.99]
When his "Life" attribute and "Power" attribute reached a very subtle balance, Fan Wu could no longer continue adding points to his "Power" attribute.
His "Power" attribute could not surpass his "Life" attribute. But he could add points to his "Life" attribute, maintaining a mutual check and balance or a state of equilibrium between "Power" and "Life" from now on.
With a "Power" attribute that soared to 135.02 points, Fan Wu’s body erupted with a terrifying aura.
Because his "Power" attribute had a 30％ enhancement!
That meant his actual "Power" attribute had reached a staggering 175.526 points!
The aura that burst forth from him was so powerful that even the Ghost King of the Ten Halls was taken aback!
And very alarmed!
But at this point, it no longer had the luxury to worry about that, as its fists were already pounding against Fan Wu’s body. The deafening boom sounded as if mountains were collapsing.
The ground beneath Fan Wu’s feet cracked open inch by inch!
But perhaps because the ground of the Underworld was more solid than that of the mortal realm, although huge cracks appeared, there weren’t any large depressions in the ground.
Had Fan Wu been struck by those fists in the mortal realm, he estimated he would’ve been smashed a zhang deep into the ground.
"This guy..." The Ghost King of the Ten Halls was perplexed, "Why doesn’t he dodge or avoid, and he didn’t even swing his sword? Does he really think, with his flesh and blood, he can withstand the strike of this King?"
"Ridiculous! What does he think he is? Does he think he’s one of those outrageously strong Demons and Devils with just flesh and blood? He’s just a human, a living person! To not block or evade, isn’t that just..."
"Hmm... wait?!!"
The Ghost King’s enormous vertical pupil dilated even more because its fists felt an overwhelming force resisting.
That immense force pushed back hard against its fists.
"What?!"
It watched, eyes wide, as an unscathed Fan Wu stood up, each shoulder withstanding a giant fist.
Slowly rising.
Unharmed!
