Ghost Catching System-Chapter 779 - 778: Gale Seal_1

Finally, Chu Hao opened his eyes. He looked at the incense burner before him, having received the usage method of the Incense Burner Seal in his mind.

Chu Hao's heart stirred. He took out three sticks of incense, lit them, inserted them into the incense burner, and recited the strange and difficult Curse Mark.

The next moment, the incense burner emitted a radiant light, as if a divine being had appeared. The ancient Buddha he had seen in the peculiar space extended a golden hand and slapped forward.

BOOM!

With a loud noise, the space in front exploded. The impact was immense, and large rocks were blasted into smithereens.

Tathagata Divine Palm? It's so powerful! This could even compete with the Holding Mountain Fist! Chu Hao exclaimed in astonishment.

Even Emperor Bai Jiang was surprised.

The toad said, "This is an ancient Buddha Mantra. If you can use the full power of the Curse Mark, you can summon a complete ancient Buddha to strike the enemy."

A thirty-foot ancient Buddha, nearly ten meters in height. If such a monster struck me, wouldn't I be blasted to pieces?

Chu Hao was extremely excited. With ten Curse Marks, I could draw one from the System! And the Curse Marks provided by the System are probably even stronger!

In the following days, he didn't find any Third-order Seals, but there were quite a few First-Stage ones. These things were truly rare.

The toad and Emperor Bai Jiang followed him, searching for Curse Marks, and also gained a lot. With Chu Hao's help, they each obtained two or three Second-Stage Curse Marks.

Finally, Chu Hao himself collected his tenth Curse Mark.

System prompt: "Host has collected ten Curse Marks: six First-Stage Curse Marks, three Second-Stage Curse Marks, and one Third-order Seal. After the System's assessment, you may draw a Curse Mark. This will be a reward ranging from First-Stage to Fourth-Stage Curse Marks."

System prompt: "Host has acquired one chance to draw a Curse Mark. Would you like to use it?"

The draw is random; anything from First-Stage to Fourth-Stage is possible, Chu Hao thought.

He said, "Draw."

The System Store displayed a dense array of Curse Marks, ranging from First to Fourth Stage. Chu Hao saw that there were thirty Fourth Stage Curse Marks, which meant he had a thirteen percent chance of drawing a Fourth Stage Curse Mark.

Chu Hao said, "If I draw a First-Stage Curse Mark, won't I be at a loss?"

System: "Whether to draw or not is up to you, Host. Of course, you could also accumulate fifty or a hundred Curse Marks. This would increase your chances of drawing a rarer Curse Mark."

So I can accumulate draws!

Chu Hao said, "Then let's start."

On the drawing interface, countless Curse Marks began to blink. Chu Hao fixed his gaze and said, "Stop."

DING... "Host has drawn a Third-order Gale Seal."

I wonder if this Third-order Seal is as good as the Incense Burner Seal, he mused.

Item: Gale Seal

Ability: With the Gale Seal formed, a fierce wind arises; the stronger the caster, the more formidable the gale.

This thing doesn't seem all that useful!

Wanting to give it a try, Chu Hao went to some ruins. He formed his hands into a seal, and the Curse Mark appeared. His cheeks puffed out, and he forcefully blew forward.

In an instant, a vast gale formed with the might of at least a level-twelve typhoon. The walls of the ruin toppled. Slices of wind, like blades, left traces on the stones they passed over.

The next moment, the gale intensified, forming a tornado in front!

This tornado persisted for a long time, rolling forward.

Chu Hao was shocked. Damn, this is too powerful!

I have a feeling this Curse Mark's power can be enhanced further, he thought. If I reach the perfect stage of Foundation Building, it'll be even stronger.

Excited, Chu Hao said, "If a Third-order Seal is so strong, what about Fourth Stage, Sixth Stage, Tenth Stage?"

The System indicated, "Curse Marks can be re-smelted in the forge to improve their grade. This requires the Host to collect a variety of Curse Marks."

So they can be re-smelted for improvement!

Chu Hao asked, "How many Curse Marks are needed to promote the Gale Seal to Fourth Stage?"

The System answered, "One thousand First-Stage Curse Marks, one hundred Second-Stage Curse Marks, and ten Third-order Seals. Additionally, fifty thousand Pretentiousness Points are needed to promote the grade."

It takes so many just to go from Third to Fourth Stage! The higher it goes, the harder it gets.

Chu Hao said, "System, are Curse Marks now the mainstream items in the store? Do I have to rely on them to kill Underworld Deities?"

The System replied, "Yes."

So that's how it is! No wonder Ghosts from the Underworld who get a Fifth Order Curse Mark can be called minor Underworld Deities. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

When the tornado dispersed, both the toad and Emperor Bai Jiang were disturbed. They looked at the ruins, now in complete disarray, with astonished faces turned towards Chu Hao.

Chu Hao walked over and said suspiciously, "Toad, don't tell me you don't know where the Divine Palace is. We've been walking for four days."

The toad redirected its gaze, thinking, Could this kid have gotten another lucky break? It then said, "You think the Divine Palace is easy to find?"

This toad really didn't know where the Divine Palace was.

Emperor Bai Jiang said, "Didn't you say you walked out from here? How can you not know where the Divine Palace is?"

The toad, dissatisfied, said, "The Divine Palace isn't a fixed structure; it's mobile. It rests on the back of a turtle. So, to find the Divine Palace, we must first find the turtle."

Seriously? Chu Hao and Emperor Bai Jiang were incredulous; it sounded too fantastical.

The toad said, "What do you know! This is the technique of a Qimen Dunjia master, called the Mustard Seed Space Technique, to prevent evil demons from easily finding the Divine Palace."

Chu Hao asked, "Is this turtle alive?"

The toad nodded and said, "It's alive."

Damn! How are we supposed to find it?

The Holy City is too large. If the turtle hides, we could spend a lifetime searching and never find it!

The toad said, "Therefore, we need to lure this turtle out."

Emperor Bai Jiang asked, "How do we lure it?"

The toad said, looking troubled, "We need a female turtle, and not just any, but a 'beautiful' one to attract it."

Where are we supposed to find a female turtle? This is just ridiculous!

The toad said, "Kiddo Chu, don't you have Transformation Talismans? Hurry up, don't be stingy."

Having no other choice, Chu Hao purchased some Transformation Talismans.

The toad, still troubled, said, "I don't know what kind of female turtle is considered beautiful. We need to find a professional."

At that moment, Emperor Bai Jiang gave a slight smile and said, "I've kept turtles before; let me give it a try."

I have to hand it to Emperor Bai Jiang, Chu Hao mused. He knows ancient Wo Country characters, and now he even understands this?

Next, the question was who would transform into the turtle. The toad didn't want to, as it would degrade its status too much. Naturally, Emperor Bai Jiang didn't want to either. Chu Hao directly stated that it would be too embarrassing for the King of Show-offs to transform into a turtle.

So, the two men and the toad argued for half a day. In the end, they decided they could only take turns transforming.

「Outside.」

In the no-man's-land of the Great Plains, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month had arrived. The moonlight this night was exceptionally bright. The blurry view of the Holy City became clear under the moon's illumination, no longer hazy.

Someone saw this scene and tried to walk to the edge of the area affected by gravity, only to discover that gravity was gone.

"Has gravity disappeared?"

This news caused a stir in the outside world. Countless people began to prepare their belongings, intending to enter the Holy City to search for opportunities.

The Seventh District wanted to halt them, saying it was dangerous. However, they couldn't restrain everyone's eagerness. People were desperate to seize the opportunity, unwilling to live an ordinary life.

"The chance to become a Yin-Yang Person lies ahead!"

"Even if it's dangerous, I want to give it a try. Take good care of the kids for me; I'll be back," someone said while bidding farewell to their family, creating a poignant scene.

"Look, the Long Chen Financial Group has brought many people!"

The Long Chen Financial Group, a major consortium that had risen in recent years, held a prominent reputation in the world of commerce. The opportunities within the Holy City were attracting everyone.

The Long Chen Group arrived with many people and full equipment, having spent a considerable amount of money to hire a master guide.

Ordinary people could only look on in envy. Such global consortiums could even get Yin-Yang Persons to work for them. With money, they could do whatever they wanted.

"The Nine Gates of Huaxia also arrived."
