Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 355 - 146: Slaying the Ghost King of the Ten Halls! Underworld Judge Appears! (Mega - , Please Subscribe)_6
It was the Ghost King of the Ten Halls!
Even in life, when it learned that it was to be hung on the city wall and left to die in the sun, it never thought to seize that emperorโs children to threaten him, to cling desperately to life!
Now, even though it had become a ferocious ghost, a Ghost King of the Netherworld, it would not stoop to such despicable acts, acts against its own will!
"Damn it! I fought wars for over a hundred years when I was alive, never once afraid of anything!" The furious expression on the Ghost King of the Ten Hallsโ face completely disintegrated, replaced by an unprecedented clarity, and a serene gravity filled its vertical pupil. ๐๐ฟ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐ง๐ ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฅ.๐๐จ๐
It let out a roar!
Its massive arms suddenly swelled several times in size, just like Fan Wuโs muscular arms. Surrounded by wisps of ghostly fire, both its colossal fists aimed at the dazzling sword light hurtling towards it and, with a simultaneous straight punch, it struck out!!!
Boom!!!!!!
The radiant sword light cleaved by the Demon-slaying Sword was not only dazzling but also contained an endless aura of destruction, as if illustrating that the most beautiful things...are the most dangerous!
The moment the Ghost King of the Ten Hallsโ fists made contact with the sword light, they disintegrated as if they were two dandelions blown away by a gentle puff of air.
Dissipated!
Crumbled!
Shattered!
Following that, its forearms and upper arms also burst apart in the blink of an eye. Both arms turned into countless fragments that drifted slowly in front of its vertical pupil, fluttering in the air.
The Ghost King of the Ten Halls was stunned.
It realized that with this sword strike... Fan Wu had exerted his full strength. Against this all-out strike, it seemed it couldnโt block it, not even for the duration of a single breath.
Bang!!!
The armor on the Ghost King of the Ten Hallsโ body shattered instantly, and the military helmet atop its head, adorned with two plumes, was flung up high and split in two.
Its massive body uncontrollably barrelled backward, demolishing countless mounds and creating innumerable large craters in the ground.
Finally, it crashed heavily against the foot of a large mountain in the Netherworld. The whole mountain seemed to tremble slightly, and the Ghost King was deeply embedded within it.
Faint footsteps could be heard approaching.
The Ghost King of the Ten Halls struggled to open its vertical pupil, and what it saw was Fan Wu slowly walking towards it, that towering and robust figure... It felt that even in its life as a military general, its stature was inferior to that of the man before it.
Is this guy truly a Taoist Priest?
It was indeed baffling.
"Iโve lost," the Ghost King of the Ten Halls uttered with difficulty, no longer calling itself โthis king,โ nor did it carry any airs of a Ghost King; it was more like a rude soldier.
Although Fan Wu was much smaller,
At this moment, it always felt...
That Fan Wu stood like a colossal iron tower before it,
No matter how hard it tried,
It couldnโt inflict any damage on this colossal iron tower.
"Damn it, I battled on the battlefield for over a hundred years when alive, and fought in the Netherworld for a thousand years, and itโs not like Iโve never lost. But never once have I been as embarrassed and helpless as I am today," the Ghost King of the Ten Halls said coldly, "Having already become a ghost, to have to die at the hands of a junior like you is really damn frustrating."
"Youโd better tell me frankly, are you truly just a Taoist Priest, and not a lapdog of the Great Zhou Dynastyโs Imperial Court?"
"That way, at least I wonโt die feeling so suffocated."
"I am indeed a Taoist Priest," Fan Wu replied candidly.
"Ha!" The Ghost King of the Ten Halls, enduring the excruciating pain throughout its body, managed a difficult smile, "I damn well knew it, all of that emperorโs descendants are good-for-nothings. They could not raise a freak like you."
In the Ghost King of the Ten Hallsโ eyes, Fan Wuโs expression was quite calm as he lifted the Demon-slaying Sword in his hand.
The Ghost King of the Ten Halls suddenly saw a streak of blinding white light that made its eyes smart with pain.
Then it could see nothing more.
It could think of nothing more.
Because... its consciousness was sinking into eternal darkness.
Completely vanished!
Its colossal head had already burst and crumbled, and its body began to crack open like a clay statue smashed on the ground, inch by inch.
Until.
Dissipated!
[You have successfully killed "Ghost King of the Ten Halls (self-proclaimed)", congratulations on gaining Free Attribute Points: 17.5 points!]
The kill notification from the upgrade system appeared before Fan Wuโs eyes.
Fan Wu silently sheathed the Demon-slaying Sword.
Back into the scabbard behind him.
After the ghostly body of the Ghost King of the Ten Halls completely dispersed, the Netherworld seemed to quiet down as wellโof course, one would have to ignore the howling yin winds swirling around.
[Name: Fan Wu]
[Life: 135.02๏ผ (10%)]
[Power: 135.02๏ผ (๏ผ30%)]
[Skills: Star Lodging Sword Technique lv2 (0/100), Demon Path lv1 (0/50), Annihilation Finger lv1 (0/50)]
[Free Attribute Points: 41.49]
Fan Wuโs balance of Free Attribute Points once again exceeded 40 points, reaching 41.49 points! He hadnโt expected that the Ghost King of the Ten Halls would actually yield 17.5 Free Attribute Points.
It seemed to be a bit more than he had anticipated.
Not bad at all!
Daoist Priest Fan was very satisfied!
In this way, he was only 8.51 Free Attribute Points away from the 50 points mark. As long as he gathered 50 Free Attribute Points, he could upgrade the lv1 "Demon Path" to lv2!
The duration for the lv1 "Demon Path" was one minute.
Should he encounter an equally matched strong enemy, that one minute of duration would feel quite short. Fan Wu didnโt want to end up likeโthe warrior who is the strongest in the world for five seconds, but for a father, five seconds is still too short.
He felt he needed to be not only strong!
But also enduring!
The duration of the lv2 "Demon Path" reached a full five minutes, which was enough for him to do many things.
It was also enough for him to face many equally matched strong enemies, and even those stronger than him.
"Still short by 8.51 points," Fan Wu breathed in what might or might not be considered air within the Netherworld.
"Itโs still a bit challenging."
After all...
Today he had slaughtered so many ferocious evil ghosts, including a Ghost King and the Ghost General consumed by the Ghost King, all reduced to ashes... and he had earned only so many Free Attribute Points.
To make up for the missing 8.51 Free Attribute Points, it looked like Daoist Priest Fan would need to slaughter a few hundred more ferocious evil ghosts.
To gather them all up!
"Hmm?" Fan Wu suddenly noticed something that seemed to be left behind on the ground where the Ghost King of the Ten Halls had disintegrated into ashes. Without caring whether it could be some dangerous trap, he nonchalantly walked over.
Then he bent down to pick it up.
"What is this?" What Fan Wu held between his fingertips was a small, round bead, smaller than a human eye, resembling the marbles he played with in his childhood in the previous life.
Fan Wu remembered, the demon that had been dead for who knows how long at Three Realms Village also had a small bead like this.
What could this be?
A Golden Core from the cultivation novels?
Suddenly!
A stern shout came from not far away, the voice piercing through the heavy distance straight into Fan Wuโs ears: "Which ferocious evil ghost dares to run amok in the Netherworld! Well! A group of evil ghosts hiding all day, today, the Underworld Judge has finally caught you!"
"None of you shall escape!!!"
Fan Wu sensed that a large number of familiar presences were approaching this place; they were unmistakably the auras of Yin Envoys!
It looked like the huge commotion here had attracted the Yin Envoys.
