Chapter 118 – One-on-one battle with the Corpse King BOSS,Part 2 The Corpse King was being held back by Lin Jichen alone, its decayed skull face suppressing a raging fury. In the hollow sockets of its eyes, ghostly green flames flickered. From its withered, skeletal hands came the faint crackling sound of Yin Thunder. In an instant, two thunderballs formed from Yin Fiend energy shot out from its palms. Lin Jichen's mouth twitched at the sight. He was all too familiar with these crackling blue thunderballs, etched deeply in his memory. Last time, he was nearly blown to pieces by these Yin Fiend thunderballs while rescuing Nangong Yue from the bottom of a well. Back then, Lin Jichen was only at the middle stage of Qi Refining and couldn't withstand the Yin Thunder at all. Fortunately, his health bar was much thicker than the average Qi Refining cultivator, so he survived, but the experience still left him with lingering fear. Moreover, the Yin Thunder was filled with a large amount of Yin Fiend energy, causing him to pass out for a whole day after being hit. Seeing someone use Yin Thunder again, Lin Jichen couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. Do they still think I'm the same weakling as before? Lin Jichen stepped on the Big Dipper, his figure moving like lightning, and swung his Dark Night Sword fiercely! The dark blade struck one of the thunderballs, emitting a dazzling white light. The sword remained unscathed, but the thunderball was obliterated. For the other thunderball, Lin Jichen repeated the process, not bothering to dodge, and slashed it with his sword! This was his small shadow, his small fear. The way to conquer fear is to face it head-on. For a cultivator, this is especially important. You can lose, you can hide, but you cannot be afraid. Any enemy or situation you fear will become a heart demon in the future. The seed of a heart demon will slowly take root and sprout, emerging when you need to break through critical realms, shattering your Dao Heart, and potentially driving you insane. The best way to deal with a heart demon is to confront it. The path of cultivation requires courage and progress, unafraid of powerful enemies. Seemingly retreating in fear is already a complete loss. This has nothing to do with the level of cultivation; it's purely about the state of mind, where the seed of cowardice has been planted. Yin Thunder is just a small fear. Lin Jichen has two major fears: one is the Illuminating Dragon that killed him, and the other is the betrayal of Guo Jie and Xu Zikai. These are Lin Jichen's two major heart demons. If he doesn't resolve these two heart demons, he will face a great calamity in the future! Seeing its Yin Fiend Thunder so easily neutralized by Lin Jichen, the Corpse King erupted with a surge of violent fiendish energy from its hands! Both arms were wrapped in inky black energy, with electric light continuously flowing. The Corpse King suddenly moved, flying into the air. Its target was Lin Jichen in the sky. ... Though the damage didn't seem high, it added up, leaving the Corpse King's health bar less than half full. The Corpse King awoke from the stun, its head still buzzing, staggering to its feet. Seeing Lin Jichen still attacking it. Roar! The Corpse King roared in fury, realizing its health had dropped so much, and it let out an angry howl at Lin Jichen. What seemed like a futile rage turned out to be a massive spray of green gas from its open mouth. Millennium Corpse Poison! Lin Jichen cursed inwardly, quickly dodging and retreating. The Spirit Shield from the Gathering Spirit Jade Pendant was already ineffective against him, only blocking skills below the Crystal Formation level. "Damn you, you stinking corpse, dead for so long and your mouth still reeks. Have you been eating shit all these years? Opening your mouth so wide to poison people?" Lin Jichen stood at a distance, cursing. He had almost been hit by the corpse poison, but his quick reflexes saved him. Seeing this move fail and being humiliated by Lin Jichen, the Corpse King, a Crystal Formation realm boss, could no longer hold back. It roared to the sky, releasing all its Yin Fiend energy, transforming into black mist that enveloped its body. The Corpse King's form suddenly expanded, becoming a giant evil shadow. Lin Jichen immediately recognized it as a drought demon. A drought demon, also known as a "Ba," is an extremely powerful type of corpse ghost. A corpse initially transforms into a drought demon, and further transformation turns it into a "Hou." Drought demons wreak havoc, burning everything in their path. Drought demons are violent and terrifyingly powerful, with even the weakest having Gathering Spirit realm cultivation. There is another type of Ba, called a female Ba, which is gentle in nature and formed by the chance transformation of a deceased celestial maiden. Lin Jichen had once slain a Nascent Soul realm drought demon and had encountered a female Ba, almost being taken by her for dual cultivation. The thought still gave him a mix of fear and excitement. If this Corpse King could truly transform into a drought demon, he would have given up on the Secret Realm without resistance. A real drought demon, with his current strength, even a hundred of him wouldn't be its match. This Corpse King had only sacrificed to the drought demon, gaining a fraction of its power. The Corpse King, now a shadow of the drought demon, looked like a demon god. The shadow moved with incredible speed, surpassing Lin Jichen in the blink of an eye, and struck down with a palm. Phantom Step! Lin Jichen's figure shifted dozens of meters, avoiding the strike. The ground behind him caved in several meters, forming a palm-shaped pit filled with swirling black mist. Lin Jichen knew the Corpse King was now like Ning Kuan on ten pounds of Viagra, brimming with confidence and power. He soared into the sky again, his Dark Night Sword transforming into 22 Phoenix Sword Qi! Phoenix Feather!
