Chapter 295: Chapter 98: Competing Acting Skills - Beating Up the Ghost King_2"I’ll count this as another great achievement for you." "Haha, Leader, you’re being too formal, we’re all brothers in the guild, I trust you completely." While speaking, he directly traded the Ghost General Iron Spear to Hidden Dragon Do Not Use. "I have twelve Demons-breaking Rune Arrows, which can also harm the Ghost King," Little White Dragon said with some reluctance. These arrows, like talismans, are consumables; to use one is to lose one, no different from burning money. But at this moment, he couldn’t afford to be frugal. Xiao Jie calculated for a moment, and together with Bai Ze the Taoist, and Dida La, who would join the fight after being liberated from possession, this output should be sufficient. "Okay, with this, the damage should be enough. First, we’ll find Dida La. I’ll use the Magic Artifact to force Yinlingzi out of his body, and then everyone will strike with full force. This thing is a level 28 Ghost King with powerful spells; we must try to prevent it from acting." "If we can’t take it down immediately, Yinlingzi will likely return to the burial chamber to recover. We’ll chase after him and take him down completely while the array is ineffective. Any problems with that? Uh, Leader, you don’t mind me taking command, right?" Xiao Jie only then remembered he was no longer in charge, but he had just been so used to giving orders as the former guild leader. He had momentarily forgotten his role. Hidden Dragon Do Not Use laughed heartily, "It seems you used to be the leader as well, Sui Feng. No worries, I don’t really have a solid plan either, so feel free to give orders as you see fit. You’ll command this battle, everything is for the sake of defeating the BOSS." Xiao Jie grunted in agreement, naturally continuing with the arrangements. His understanding of the current situation was clearer, especially concerning the effects of the array changes, the efficacy of the Divine Wood Talisman for exorcism, whether it’s the Black Wood Sword or the Ghost General Iron Spear; he was very clear about their effects. "Then let’s proceed according to the plan, remember, do not attack without my command when we meet. Since the BOSS is intelligent, that means we can communicate, perhaps we can even find some flaws through negotiation. Those without ghost harming abilities, try to stay at the back, those with talismans or Magic Artifacts, stay in the front line, let’s move!" The group responded in unison, walking towards the exit of the Ancient Tomb. At that very moment, Dida La was pushing open a door to a burial chamber, but inside were only a few zombies. "Hmph, you’re good at hiding, but you can’t escape my divine sight!" The Ancient Tomb was built on a grand scale to ensure the effectiveness of the array, featuring twelve burial chambers, each interring seven bones of slaves and craftsmen. After a thousand years of transformation by negative energy, they had all turned into zombies. Together with the rooms housing the Funerary Items, the entire tomb had dozens of rooms, which were challenging to find. But with the Dragon-breaking Stone now placed, let’s see where you can escape! A rush of scrambling footsteps quickly approached through the tomb passageway, and a group of people appeared at the end of the corridor, causing the ’Dida La’ they saw to be visibly surprised. Dida La (possessed returnee): "Ah, good to see you heroes, I just destroyed the Ghost King, and now it’s finally safe. Oh dear, Bai Ze my friend, you really left me all alone back there; thankfully, my profound spells barely secured me a victory over the Ghost King." Damn, this guy is still putting on an act. And believe it or not, the voice is exactly like Dida La’s, but the tone is slightly different, with a subtle scholarly feel. Xiao Jie hurriedly said joyfully, "Hahahaha, that’s truly great news, Master Dida La is indeed extraordinarily powerful—it’s worth every bit of the one hundred taels we spent to invite you here. Ah, pity those brothers who fell victim to the Ghost King." The group paused, then quickly caught on. "Ah, yes, it’s such a pity!" "That Ghost King was damn wicked, good thing Master Dida La took him down." "Master Dida La’s power is boundless, awesome!" The group praised him, making the Dida La on standby in YY unable to help but laugh and cry. Yinlingzi saw everyone speaking like this and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Xiao Jie, seizing the opportunity, said, "Dida La, let’s hurry and get out of here, it’s too dangerous. Who knows if there’s a second Ghost King here." His idea was simple; although the formation had been destroyed, it was somewhat inconvenient in the pitch-dark ancient tomb. Moreover, there might be minor monsters around, and fighting them would definitely favor the Ghost King. But if he could lure this Yinlingzi outside, under the bright sun, the difficulty of killing him would naturally decrease significantly. Ghost units would suffer attribute penalties under the sun. However, Yinlingzi was not fooled, "Hehe, why the rush to leave, gentlemen? This place is the tomb of Zhongwu Marquis Wang Chang, filled with many funerary items and even the Armor and Weapons used by Wang Chang in his lifetime. Aren’t we here for these treasures? Let’s search thoroughly, revel to our heart’s content, and leave later." "Don’t listen to him, he wants to drag this out for an hour, to completely take over my body, hurry and save me!" Dida La shouted loudly in YY. Xiao Jie typed—Don’t yell, we’ll definitely save you. Everyone, set up the formation, get ready for the group attack—Hidden Dragon, Ye Luo, Little White Dragon, Bai Ze, you guys will be the main force in this battle, and Dida La, be ready to cast your spells right after the exorcism. "Oh, does Brother Dida La know something? I searched the tomb before and only found some broken weapons. I wonder where the good stuff is hidden; how about Brother Dida La leads the way?" "Haha, sure thing," said Yinlingzi and then beckoned, "Gentlemen, please follow me." With that, he started walking deeper into the tomb. Yet internally, he sneered, "A bunch of mere mortals, ants-like creatures, walking to their doom without realizing it. Watch as I lead you into a pit of chaos and summon all the zombies from the burial chamber to finish you all at once!" Barely a few steps in, everyone behind him surged forward, crowding around him from both sides. Yinlingzi felt something amiss but was not quite sure until everyone surrounded him, and then Xiao Jie suddenly used the Divine Wood Talisman! Simultaneously, he shouted— "Now is the time!" Exorcism! Talisman Effect: Exorcism. Disperses a Demon Art/Ghost Curse class magic effect from a target, cooldown time: 30 minutes. Suddenly, a bright white light flickered on Dida La’s body, followed immediately by Dida La’s screams of exertion resounding throughout the corridor, and a gust of cold wind arose out of nowhere as a semi-transparent shadow was violently expelled from his body, hovering in the air. Yinlingzi (Evil Ghost King): "Curse it! How dare these mere mortals..." Before Yinlingzi could finish his harsh words, the surrounding people had already struck with full force. Everyone knew the terrifying power of the Ghost King, so they used their killing moves right from the start. Secret Technique—Dragon Churning Sea! Hidden Dragon wielded the Ghost General Iron Spear, spiraling out a dragon-shaped force. Blood of Ebony! Secret Technique—Flowing Cloud Thousand Illusions! In a flash, Ye Luo’s Black Wood Sword created dozens of sword shadows, madly stabbing at Yinlingzi. Xiao Jie was startled; he didn’t expect Ye Luo to know a secret technique too? Secret Technique—Meteor Chasing the Moon! Little White Dragon fired an arrow at Yinlingzi’s face, the arrowhead blazing with Demon Exorcism Spirit Fire. Thunderclap Technique—Thunder Skill! Bai Ze also blasted out a golden Mystic Thunder. In just a moment, Yinlingzi’s Blood Volume was reduced by a quarter. Although immune to physical attacks, his defensive power was near zero, so these attacks, which had effects that countered ghosts, hit him hard. Yinlingzi wanted to possess Dida La again, but Dida La had already taken control. "Hahaha, I am alive, I am alive—eat my Divine Thunder!" Hand Palm Thunder! Boom, a thunderbolt shot out from Dida La’s hand, blasting Yinlingzi back. Immediately following, the second round of attacks arrived, and core members around him threw out their prepared items like crazy—Thunder Talismans, Fire Talismans, Black Dog Blood, and all kinds of stuff, not caring about wastage at this point. Clearly, the sudden group attack disoriented Yinlingzi. Seeing his Blood Volume greatly reduced and furious, he bellowed, "You all wait for me," and turned into a cloud of black mist, swiftly flying towards the main burial chamber.
