"Whoosh," the sound of wind swept by, the sound of Ling Mo Xie and the ghosts tied to his wrist moving swiftly through the air.
Ling Mo Xie landed with the ghosts in City Square, surrounded by an intense atmosphere of Resentment. According to the time, Ling Mo Xie knew it should be afternoon, but within this Square, it was as dark as night, with visibility reduced to nothing.
Perhaps one could catch a glimpse of blood-red eyes flashing occasionally; those were the eyes of vengeful spirits and resentful beings.
As soon as Ling Mo Xie entered the Square, it was as if a drop of water had fallen into boiling oil; the previously calm Square instantly erupted.
The sounds of howling echoed, and Ling Mo Xie could see pairs of blood-red eyes all around him. He could even hear the sound of drool dripping from the resentful beings onto the ground, sending chills down his spine in the darkness, filled with fear.
Ling Mo Xie rubbed his arms, feeling goosebumps rise.
But soon, he looked at these vengeful spirits and resentful beings with shining eyes; this was all experience! Experience! With a happy smile on his face, Ling Mo Xie waved the chains on his wrist, and those ghosts rushed towards the vengeful spirits and resentful beings with wails.
These vengeful spirits and resentful beings had been in this dense Resentment in the Square for such a long time, far better than those he had encountered before.
However, it seemed that there was a dividing line between intermediate and advanced; although there were many more vengeful spirits and resentful beings here, they were still all intermediate level, with no advanced ones appearing.
Perhaps it was also related to Ling Mo Xie being at the edge of the Square at this moment?
Soon, the ghosts clashed with the vengeful spirits and resentful beings. The ghost wielding a large hammer was quite impressive, almost taking down an intermediate resentful being with a single blow, making Ling Mo Xie beam with joy.
Ling Mo Xie was not idle either; while commanding his ghosts to hunt down vengeful spirits and resentful beings, he continuously cast his skills.
Listening to the constant notifications from the System in his ears and watching the rising Experience Points on the System Panel, Ling Mo Xie was filled with enthusiasm, wishing he could eliminate all these vengeful spirits and resentful beings at once. He didn't even complain about the harsh environment polluted by Resentment.
Unknowingly, Ling Mo Xie continued to advance with the ghosts, getting closer to the center of the Square.
"Awoo!" "Ah! Ugh!" A furious howl rang out. Ling Mo Xie heard several piercing screams and saw two transparent chains on his wrist suddenly snap.
"This is... a Not Bad character has appeared?" Ling Mo Xie’s expression tightened. He had anticipated that a Not Bad character would show up in the Square, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. He had just leveled up to seventy-eight, which meant he was at the early stage of Golden Core.
Ling Mo Xie looked inward at the dazzling Golden Core in his dantian. When he reached level seventy-seven, this Golden Core had been formed by the System.
"Come on! I'm not afraid of you; you're just a dead thing contaminated by Resentment!" The shining Golden Core in his dantian gave Ling Mo Xie immense courage. In the Cultivation World, this meant he had truly stepped into the threshold of cultivation and could be considered a small expert in the city.
Ling Mo Xie looked up at the Advanced Grudge Monster entangled by several ghosts.
Advanced Grudge Monster (Elite): Level: 85. Health Points: 103648/130000.
Skills: Song of Resentment, Desire Red Lotus, Dream Awakening, Floating Life, Floating Shadow.
After using several Detection Skills, Ling Mo Xie finally uncovered some attributes of the Grudge Monster.
The Grudge Monster resembled a leopard but was pitch black, shrouded in Resentment, with blood-red eyes revealing a frenzied thirst for blood. Its size was only that of an ordinary leopard, but its power should not be underestimated. Just as Ling Mo Xie was busy examining its attributes, it had already killed another ghost.
"Flying Immortal Sword!" Ling Mo Xie shouted loudly and joined the siege against the Grudge Monster.
"Boom!" The Grudge Monster was distracted by a ghost wielding a large hammer and was caught off guard when Ling Mo Xie struck it directly. Ling Mo Xie's face lit up; under his Detection Skill, he could see that the Grudge Monster's Health Points dropped by over thirty thousand points, indicating that its defense was not impressive.
"Awwoo!" The Grudge Monster howled to the sky with even more bloodthirsty eyes. Before Ling Mo Xie could react, countless afterimages flashed past. His body felt light for a moment before he was sent flying backward, experiencing intense pain as he spat out blood like rain falling down.
Taking another look at the Health Points, it surprisingly dropped by two-thirds!
"Damn! Is this the Floating Shadow? I haven't even seen where it is! No, I didn't even notice when it crashed into me!" Ling Mo Xie exclaimed in frustration, quickly using a few Small Red Bottles to calm his racing heart.
"It seems to be a speed type." Ling Mo Xie said gloomily, realizing he didn't have any powerful movement skills; this type was difficult to deal with!
Although he thought a lot in his mind, the moment he landed, Ling Mo Xie got back up and executed a Shattering the Sky strike on the vengeful spirit. Although it was fast, Ling Mo Xie's intent was not slow either, directly cutting off about twenty thousand Health Points from it.
With a flick of his wrist, all the ghosts immediately flew toward the vengeful spirit under the guidance of the transparent chains, moving at incredible speed, especially that Ghost with a Heavy Hammer, which smashed down on the vengeful spirit's head with one blow.
They were ghosts, light as air and quite fast—at least much faster than Ling Mo Xie.
But at that moment, one ghost that clearly hadn't been attacked suddenly faded and then disappeared into thin air. The transparent chain wrapped around Ling Mo Xie's wrist also vanished.
"Damn! Just when it rains, it pours. I encounter an Advanced Grudge Monster, and now these ghosts are about to disappear!" Ling Mo Xie stared at the vanishing ghost in shock and then cursed loudly, feeling utterly helpless!
"Little ghosts, put in some effort! Take down this vengeful spirit, and next time I'll summon you for some good food!" Ling Mo Xie shouted to the ghosts. Perhaps because they knew they were about to return, these little ghosts seemed somewhat demotivated, forcing Ling Mo Xie to encourage them.
At that moment, the vengeful spirit seemed to sense Ling Mo Xie's predicament. Its form flickered as afterimages swept past; both the ghosts and Ling Mo Xie found it hard to land an attack on it. Even when they occasionally managed to hit it, it was merely a glancing blow that only scratched its surface.
Seeing yet another ghost "gloriously return," Ling Mo Xie began to feel anxious. He definitely couldn't handle this Advanced Grudge Monster alone; after all, it was seven levels higher than him and was an Elite monster!
