Ghost Catching System-Chapter 567 - 566 Big Boss Appears (Seeking Monthly Pass)_1

In the deep mountains, far from the city's hustle and bustle, one could also evade the Ghost Officiants' pursuit. Which ghost wouldn't desire to go there?

Only those ghosts still enamored with the city would choose to stay, but the power of the city's Fierce Ghosts was far inferior to those in the deep mountains.

This Gui Yin Sect was truly a nest of ghosts. Along the way, he had already encountered the fourth Fierce Ghost.

These Fierce Ghosts hid well, seeking out places heavy with Ghost Qi to slumber. Of course, not all here were Semi-Ghost Kings—there were also ghosts of the Ghost General Level, which Sadako dealt with directly.

As the System had said, although Experience Points were fewer, the chance of item drops was significant.

Having killed four Semi-Ghost Kings, he had already obtained two Golden Treasure Chests.

Just as Chu Hao was about to venture deeper, an eerie voice sounded, "You dare trespass into the forbidden lands of Gui Yin Mountain."

The source of the voice was unseen, yet it resounded with crystal clarity. Chu Hao was startled, but he regained his composure and replied indifferently, "This Taoist Master has come precisely to eradicate Gui Yin Mountain."

"You're courting death!"

In an instant, Ghost Qi enveloped the surroundings. This was no ordinary Ghost Qi, and Chu Hao sensed it too.

The Black Wind Fierce Ghost cried out excitedly, "Big Boss, save me!"

Big Boss? So, this fellow has finally shown himself? Chu Hao rather wanted to see what was so special about this guy.

Before him, an old locust tree rose from the earth, its vines shaking as if a host of demons danced wildly.

In all directions, the old locust trees did the same; they all stirred to life.

Chu Hao could see numerous Fierce Ghosts hidden within these trees; they had merged with the locusts to become Ghost Tree Demons.

There were too many locust trees.

The voice continued, "To think you'd eliminate my Gui Yin Mountain Village! Indeed, killing you now would be letting you off too easily."

Chu Hao, with undisguised disdain, tossed the head of the Black Wind Fierce Ghost to the ground, stepped on it, and sneered, "What Gui Yin Mountain? This Taoist Master will set it ablaze right now."

The voice sneered, "Burn the mountain? Who do you think you are?"

They don't believe in Brother Hao? No matter, I'll prove it with strength.

Chu Hao inwardly sneered, "System, purchase the Flame Fan."

"DING. Host has purchased the Flame Fan, consuming 8,000 Pretentiousness Points."

Item: Flame Fan (Magic Artifact)

Rarity: ★★★

Ability: A fan that can produce flames. Each wave consumes 500 Mana Points (Upgradable, Fusible).

Logically, a fan that merely produced flames shouldn't require 8,000 Pretentiousness Points. However, what made this fan valuable was its upgradability and fusibility—features many Magic Artifacts lacked.

Chu Hao extended his hand, and a massive fan, resembling a banana leaf fan, appeared. He waved it vigorously.

"DING. Host has used the Flame Fan, consuming 500 Mana Points."

A scorching wind burst forth, instantly igniting a row of old locust trees.

The old locust trees shrieked as if they were people being burned alive.

"What?!" The Big Boss, hidden in the darkness, was shocked to see Chu Hao ignite a great fire with a single wave of the fan.

Chu Hao laughed, "Let the flames rage even more fiercely!"

After several more waves, all the surrounding old locust trees were ablaze. The fire was so fierce that if it continued, Gui Yin Mountain would undoubtedly be burned to cinders.

"You're insane! With such a massive fire, you won't be able to escape either!" the Big Boss in the shadows cried out, exasperated.

You underestimate this Taoist Master. However, Chu Hao soon discovered the fire was too intense. Flames raged in all directions, and even he felt the scorching heat, as if trapped in an oven.

Chu Hao clicked his tongue, "This... this fire seems to have gotten out of hand."

"DING. Burned a Fierce Ghost to death, earned 10,000 Experience Points."

"DING. Burned a Fierce Ghost to death, earned 10,000 Experience Points."

As the System continued to chime with notifications, Chu Hao cracked a smile. He had come to exterminate Gui Yin Mountain, and this conflagration was perfect. Burn, burn, burn!

Chu Hao leaped up, now a veritable pyromaniac. He charged deeper into the dense thicket, fanning with the Flame Fan, igniting a huge blaze before him.

Gui Yin Mountain echoed with the wails of ghosts and howls of fiends. Heaven knew how many Fierce Ghosts resided there. The thirty-six Semi-Ghost Kings mentioned by the Black Wind Fierce Ghost were merely the strongest among them; Gui Yin Mountain's foundation was indeed profound.

"DING. A Ghost Demon was burned to death, dropping a Bronze Treasure Chest. Collected into inventory."

"DING. A Ghost Demon was burned to death, dropping a case of Red Dragon. Collected into inventory."

"DING. A Ghost Demon was burned to death, dropping a Suppression of Evil Talisman. Collected into inventory."

At this, Gui Yin Mountain, once quiet, descended into utter chaos. The Fierce Ghosts shrieked in terror, realizing this fire was no ordinary flame—it harmed ghostly bodies, and the slightest touch could incinerate them.

"Stop! Stop it!" The Big Boss was utterly panicked.

If Gui Yin Mountain burned down, he would bear the greatest culpability.

Chu Hao finally saw the so-called Big Boss. He was a young man, seemingly no older than Chu Hao himself. This is the Big Boss of Gui Yin Mountain?

Chu Hao was somewhat puzzled. Hadn't the Second-in-Command said the Big Boss hadn't emerged in thirty years? How could this fellow be so young?

The Big Boss pursued Chu Hao at an incredible speed, far beyond that of an ordinary person.

But then again, Chu Hao was no ordinary person himself. His ultimate goal was to slay the Big Boss.

Chu Hao spun around, retracted the Flame Fan, and the Ritian Stick materialized in his hand. He swung it down fiercely.

BOOM!

The Big Boss was struck and sent flying through the blazing thicket.

Chu Hao gave chase. Suddenly, a huge, deathly pale Ghost Hand emerged from the depths, attempting to seize and crush him.

Chu Hao thrust his stick forward. The Ritian Stick's true power was revealed as it pierced the Ghost Hand, forcing it to retract.

Chu Hao focused his gaze. In the distance, the Big Boss was gasping for breath. He held a pale human hand, but its palm bore a gaping, bloody hole oozing dark, blackish blood.

"You do have some skill," Chu Hao said with a smile.

Just then, the Big Boss stood up. Rubbing his chest, he said angrily, "Do you have a death wish?"

Chu Hao, shouldering the Ritian Stick, said calmly, "Apologies, but this Taoist Master will live a long and healthy life. Gui Yin Mountain, however, will vanish."

The Big Boss watched the fires spread, his face contorted with anger. "Fool! Do you think you can escape? Once the Gui Yin King is awakened, your death is certain!"

Gui Yin King! Chu Hao was taken aback. Wasn't it said there was no Ghost King here?

A little unnerved, Chu Hao asked, "Your Gui Yin Mountain has a Ghost King?"

The Big Boss declared, "The Gui Yin King is the progenitor of Gui Yin Mountain. This is his ancestral land. For setting fire to the mountain, the progenitor Gui Yin King will not spare you!"

Hearing this, Chu Hao grew even more uneasy. He wasn't yet powerful enough to defeat a Ghost King.

However, Chu Hao wasn't one to be easily intimidated. He retorted, "Since the mountain is already burning, why hasn't your progenitor appeared yet?"

The Big Boss was left speechless.

Seeing his reaction, Chu Hao laughed, "What Gui Yin King? He's probably long dead. Ghosts don't live forever, especially here in the Yang Realm."
