The creature, however, paid no attention to Ling Mo Xie's curious gaze and sat there, opening its mouth to inhale as the swirling black smoke flew toward it.
At that moment, a howl shattered the tranquility between the two.
Ling Mo Xie instantly came back to his senses and saw a ghostly figure in tattered robes appear before him. The figure looked somewhat ethereal, with a terrifying face.
"Kid, are you the one who summoned me from the Underworld? Come on, defeat me! Then I can serve you; otherwise... haha! Otherwise, I'll swallow you whole!" The shadow laughed maniacally, revealing its madness. As it laughed, its head suddenly inflated like a balloon, and its enormous mouth lunged at Ling Mo Xie.
Startled, Ling Mo Xie quickly executed a Glimpse of the Stunning Swan strike against the ghost's large mouth.
"Whoa! So this is an Underworld Creature?" Ling Mo Xie thought, patting his chest, still feeling a bit shaken.
"Roar!" The ghost cried out in pain and then let out a cold laugh. "Kid, not bad! But if you want to subdue me, you're still a bit lacking! I was a Golden Core Stage powerhouse in my past life!"
Previously caught off guard, Ling Mo Xie had been startled by the ghost. Now regaining his composure, he scoffed at the ghost and said, "Since I've summoned you, you'd better obediently serve me! What you were in life is no longer relevant."
With that, Ling Mo Xie's eyes narrowed slightly as he gripped the Coiling Dragon Sword in his hand and launched a Flying Immortal Sword attack at the ghost. The ghost, confident in its power, summoned Black Qi that surged around it—an aura belonging to spirits—transforming into a Giant Hammer that charged toward Ling Mo Xie's Flying Immortal Sword.
Ling Mo Xie's expression remained calm as he quickly activated Glimpse of the Stunning Swan and Shattering the Sky. Two sharp Sword Lights flew toward the ghost.
Typically, cultivators would need a few moments after casting a spell to circulate their Spiritual Energy—essentially their Cooldown Time. However, Ling Mo Xie was different; he could use multiple skills almost simultaneously as long as his thoughts were quick enough.
This was an advantage granted to Ling Mo Xie by the system. At that moment, the ghost was unaware of this fact and was swiftly defeated by Ling Mo Xie's subsequent skills, its Health Points dropping to zero in an instant.
Just as Ling Mo Xie felt regret for accidentally killing the helper he had summoned, the ghost reappeared—though its visage was less ferocious now. A transparent chain connected from its neck to Ling Mo Xie's wrist, and he sensed that he could control this ghost now.
Ling Mo Xie was engaged in a fierce battle with the ghost, while perched atop the roof, a creature that occasionally inhaled the smoke from Please Summon Fragrance sat calmly, not even blinking, completely undisturbed by the commotion around it.
Ling Mo Xie curiously observed the lion-like creature, which didn’t seem to be resentful at all. Besides, how could something so calm be resentful?
Ling Mo Xie approached the creature, crouched down, and reached out to touch its head.
“Human, do not touch me!” The creature finally turned its head, looked at Ling Mo Xie with a calm gaze, and surprisingly spoke.
Ling Mo Xie was astonished. Both Spirit Beasts and Demon Beasts could speak, but depending on their bloodline's nobility, the cultivation level required to speak varied. However, as far as he knew, even the earliest speakers needed to reach the Golden Core Stage. This creature before him... looked no different from a domesticated cat.
While Ling Mo Xie was pondering this, the creature glanced at him disdainfully. “This smoke is terrible. Goodbye!”
“Ah, hey!” After saying that, the creature leaped away. Ling Mo Xie hurriedly reached out to call after it, but there was no trace of the creature left.
“This is really absurd. I haven’t even scolded you for absorbing my smoke without permission; how rude!” Ling Mo Xie looked around but saw no sign of the creature and said indignantly.
He then shook his head. Why should he argue with a small animal? Although it could talk, it was still just a small creature. He felt no energy fluctuations from it; even his Detection Skill didn’t work.
“Master, do you have any tasks for me?” The ghost following Ling Mo Xie, noticing that he hadn’t given any Task, proactively asked him.
“Oh, let’s summon more Underworld Creatures!” Ling Mo Xie turned around and said to the ghost, no longer thinking about the departed “little lion.”
Saying this, he took out a dozen Please Summon Fragrance from his backpack and placed them on the roof one by one. He counted; these Underworld Creatures could only exist for half an hour. He still needed them to help hunt down vengeful spirits and resentful creatures. Summoning about ten at once would be just right; there would still be half an hour left for them to hunt.
“Master, is this too many? I must remind you that Underworld Creatures are not just ghosts! What if something Not Bad gets summoned...” The ghost stopped speaking there and simply shook its head at Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie simply smiled casually, realizing that he needed the help of these Underworld Creatures.
"Not Bad characters are indeed rare, and the probability of summoning them is still quite low! Enough talk, time is short, let's get started!"
After saying that, Ling Mo Xie directly used two Fireballs, igniting two Please Summon Fragrance.
This time, there was no creature to absorb the smoke; the Underworld Creatures were quickly summoned. As Ling Mo Xie expected, there were only two ghosts—one at Seventy Level and the other at Seventy-Five Level, both equivalent to the mid to late stages of Heart Stirring.
Ling Mo Xie smiled confidently and said to the ghost he had already subdued, "You deal with the one with lower cultivation; I'll handle the stronger one!" After saying that, he used his skills and began attacking the ghost.
Regarding Please Summon Fragrance, the System was not disappointing; most of the summoned creatures were within a similar Level range as Ling Mo Xie, with a Level difference of no more than ten levels.
However, there were times when he would summon a low-level ghost or even a Great Demon that was ten or twenty levels higher than him.
Fortunately, when he summoned that Great Demon, Ling Mo Xie already had eleven ghosts at similar Levels to himself. Using a group attack strategy, he finally subdued that Great Demon.
The Great Demon had a fierce appearance, resembling a Muscular Man with a completely red body. He wielded a large Iron Hammer and roared loudly, revealing sharp teeth that were quite intimidating.
Ling Mo Xie calculated the time; there was just over a minute left before the first summoned ghost would disappear.
Looking at the City Square shrouded in thick Resentment ahead, Ling Mo Xie commanded, "Let's go! Eliminate all vengeful spirits and resentful monsters we encounter!"
