Chapter 1227: Explode!
Chapter 1227: Explode!
“Test our cultivation?!” Liana, Rean, and Kentucky were taken aback. “Are you crazy? Don’t you know that ghosts with complete Yin Ghost Cores can become as strong as Transition Realm cultivators?”
Roan looked at them as if he looked at a bunch of idiots. “I wouldn’t have stayed here if that was the case. Don’t worry, that one is around the Middle or Late Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm.”
“That’s way too much!” Rean’s group replied straight away.
Roan sighed in response. “That’s not too much. You guys have been fighting the top geniuses of the other countries until now. Because of that, you forgot how strong average cultivators are. Liana, do you think you would lose in a fight against average cultivators at the Initial Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm?”
“This…” Liana immediately understood what Roan meant. “I… I don’t know. Ever since I was found, I only trained against strong people, so I don’t know where my strength stands against the average foes.”
Rean and Kentucky knew, though. After all, it was just recently that they started to deal with people from the Sacred Land. “Now that you say that… we might just be able to pull it off.”
Roan smirked as he walked forward. “If things go awry, we can just flee.”
Liana still found it risky. “What if those guys from the Blood Path Sect find us during the fight?”
“We run!” Roan answered without even thinking. “Now then, let’s go!”
The ghosts were already over them, so Roan was the first one to act. His hair changed into a mix of white and black as he used his skill.
‘Death Style, Crescent Moon!’
A huge wave of Dark and Light Element, fuelled by his Divine Soul Power and Rean’s scythe, swept forward.
*Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish…*
Tens of ghosts, who only acted on their desire for living souls, were cleaved in half before disappearing. However, there were a few ghosts with Semi Yin Ghost Cores along the way. They were slightly more intelligent and didn’t simply throw their heads at it. They summoned their Yin Energy and Dark Element and retaliated against Roan’s Crescent Moon.
*Boom!*
If it was just one Semi Yin Ghost Core, Roan would have destroyed it straight away. Now that he was in the Saint Realm, the power of his attacks had obviously increased a lot. But those ghosts acted together to stop it. Soon after, they pounced at Roan.
‘Yin Beacon!’
‘Life Fire, White Stellar Explosion!’
‘Divine Bird Strike!’
Rean, Liana, and Kentucky didn’t just dawdle and stare, though. They also pounced at those ghosts with Semi Yin Ghost Cores, forcing them to deal with their attacks first.
Liana’s Yin Beacon was absorbing all the Yin Energy from the ghosts without Yin Cores, so she was able to deal with basically most of them. Rean and Kentucky also jumped into the next realm, so dealing with a few ghosts with Semi Yin Ghost Cores wasn’t anything hard to do for the two.
*Boom, boom, boom, boom…*
‘Death Style, Three Claws of the Dragon!’
Roan, of course, jumped into the fray to get rid of those ghosts as well. His ‘three’ scythes slashed everywhere, cutting one ghost after another. Even the two fake scythes were more than enough to get rid of any ghost without Yin Cores.
Of course, the ghost with a complete Yin Gohst Core didn’t just look at it. “Strong… kill!” Surprisingly, this one had a bit of sentience. But it didn’t attack the twins, though. Instead, it aimed at Liana. That’s because her Yin Beacon skill was the attack that dealt most of the damage to its Yin Ghost Army.
Liana narrowed her eyes and immediately took her weapon out. She was a user of chakrams, a quite fitting weapon for her.
“Do you think I can’t deal with you? Give me your Yin Ghost Core already! 50000 Merit Points are very welcome when the day I join the Core Sector arrives.”
‘Myriad Moons!’
Liana was going all out for the first time, and only now did the twins see what she could really do. Water and Ice Element gathered around her, obviously boosted by her constitution. The moment she threw her two chakrams, they seemed to divide into four, eight, sixteen… it was also hard to tell which were the real ones. It wasn’t as good as the Three Claws of the Dragon, but there were definitely many more than just two extra blades.
Of course, the ghost didn’t stay still either. Yin Energy and Dark Element gathered around him like torrents. Because of it being as strong as a cultivator at the Elemental Transformation Realm, the amount he could gather wasn’t much different than Liana either.
“Corruption… Shots…”
Its Yin Energy and Dark Element formed makeshift balls of Dark Energy that fought back against Liana’s chakrams.
*Bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam…*
Liana’s chakrams and the Corruption Shots hit each other nonstop. However, the more than struck each other, the more of them appeared. And just like that, Liana and the ghost entered a stalemate.
‘Should we help her?’ Rean asked as he finished getting rid of another ghost.
Roan shook his head, saying, ‘Since the ghost selected her, it’s her target. Unless she actively asks us for help, we shouldn’t intervene. I also wouldn’t like it if you did that, after all.’
Kentucky couldn’t help but ask Liana directly, though. “Hey Liana, do you need help?”
Roan’s mouth twitched after hearing that. Did the bird even hear what he said?
Sure enough, Liana’s expression went dark. “I don’t! Don’t bother me!”
It looked like Kentucky’s words ignited Liana’s spirit as she increased her assault.
‘Yin Clone!’
Her Yin Energy and Water Element converged into a body of water identical to herself. Even her chakrams could be seen. The body then threw itself at the Yin Ghost, who tried to use the Dark Spheres to hit it.
Unfortunately for the ghost, the Dark Energy spheres it used to attack Liana’s body passed through the body and exited on the other side. No, to be more specific, the body of water opened holes inside itself, so the spheres didn’t touch it to start with.
The ghost had some sentience, but he was still very slow when it came to reactions. Before he could process what happened, Liana’s body made out of water hugged it.
“Explode!”
*Boom!*
