I Can Travel between Two Worlds

"Life and Soul Contract, Nether Ghost Command!"

"Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, come forth!"

The Ghost-eyed Child uttered softly, his hands constantly forming sealing techniques, and then an eerie light emanated from his body.

Suddenly, the ghost tattoo on his chest seemed to come alive, gradually peeling away from his skin.

This ghost appeared only as tall as an adult woman, dressed in a white garment, but its long hair fell like a muddy swamp.

On its body, dozens of long nails of about a foot each were pinned, making it appear even more terrifying.

Lin Chen frowned slightly at this sight.

"Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, huh? Judging by its aura... it seems to have the cultivation of the Fifth or Sixth Turn Golden Core..."

While controlling his Flying Sword, Lin Chen kept his eyes on the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost.

This is one of the most disgusting aspects of ghost cultivators.

Not only does the ghost cultivator himself possess cultivation, but the evil ghosts he summons are also incredibly terrifying.

Especially the ghost that is the life essence of the ghost cultivator!

It might even be stronger than the ghost cultivator himself...

"However, with just this Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, you’re far from capable of defeating me..."

Lin Chen sneered disdainfully, then summoned his Black Blade.

Demon-slaying Blade!

With a flick of his finger, the Demon-slaying Blade wrapped in True Essence engaged in battle with the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost.

The Demon-slaying Blade firmly suppressed the evil ghost, and for a moment, blade beams shot in all directions as the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost was driven back, step by step.

With just a single Demon-slaying Blade, he managed to subdue the evil ghost, comparable to a mid-stage Golden Core!

Ghost-Eyed Old Monster saw this and furrowed his brows even tighter.

"This Spiritual Control Technique is truly remarkable... To control twenty-two Flying Knives simultaneously and still have spare strength... This person’s True Essence might be comparable to the Eighth or Ninth Turn Golden Core!"

With this thought, Ghost-Eyed Old Monster felt somewhat troubled.

"If that’s the case, I’ll have to trade injury for injury..."

"Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, Soul-Loss Nail!"

Ghost-Eyed Old Monster quickly recited a string of curses.

Immediately, the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost let out a heartrending scream.

Seeing this, Lin Chen frowned slightly and maneuvered his Demon-slaying Blade to continue suppressing the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost.

Unexpectedly, the long nails on the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost’s body began to be pulled out one by one.

As the long nails were continuously withdrawn, the screams of the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost became even more harrowing.

While Lin Chen was puzzled, one of the long nails changed direction and darted straight towards him.

Feeling something amiss, Lin Chen quickly activated his Protective True Essence to fend off the attack...

Unexpectedly, this long nail pierced through his Protective True Essence and lodged into Lin Chen’s flesh body.

"Damn it!"

Lin Chen’s expression changed, and he hurriedly attempted to repel the long nail with his True Essence.

To his surprise, the moment the long nail touched Lin Chen’s skin, it transformed into black gas and vanished.

"What kind of Magical Treasure is this long nail..."

While Lin Chen was still puzzled, he suddenly felt a piercing pain.

"Ah!"

The pain, it was excruciating!

Lin Chen felt as if his Divine Soul had been fiercely struck by the long nail, causing a spasm-like reaction...

The pain emerged from the depths of his soul, an unprecedented agony engulfing his entire being.

In that instant, Lin Chen almost couldn’t breathe due to the pain.

And then, two, three, five...

A total of seven long nails pierced into Lin Chen’s body, sharing the torment with the distant Nail Swamp Evil Ghost.

Amidst the extreme pain, he could no longer control the twenty-one Flying Knives.

Taking advantage of this, Ghost-Eyed Old Monster let out a sinister laugh and summoned two Cyan-faced Evil Ghosts to attack Lin Chen.

As for the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, it appeared to be in unbearable pain, shivering in place.

Seeing this, Ghost-Eyed Old Monster showed a trace of distress.

This Nail Swamp Evil Ghost was a ghost he cultivated for hundreds of years.

It possessed the Technique Soul-Loss Nail that could bypass True Essence defenses, nailing a wisp of the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost’s Divine Soul into a cultivator’s body.

This caused the cultivator to experience incomparable pain.

The stronger the cultivator’s Divine Soul, the less pain they would endure.

The strength of the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost’s Divine Soul was equivalent to a Seven-Turned Golden Core cultivator, capable of severely injuring a Seven-Turned Golden Core.

However, the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost would also suffer significant damage in return.

"Heh, it seems I was overthinking... This kid’s Divine Soul is only about equivalent to a Seven-Turned Golden Core. It’s just his True Essence is somewhat peculiar..."

Ghost-Eyed Old Monster sneered, as if envisioning Lin Chen’s demise under the two Cyan-faced Evil Ghosts.

In fact, Lin Chen only had a Fourth Turn Golden Core. If it weren’t for the Celestial Derivation Technique cultivated to the Seventh Layer, enhancing his Divine Sense by a full seventy percent, approaching the Late Golden Core Stage.

It’s very likely that under the Soul-Loss Nail of the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost, his Divine Soul would have been directly shattered!

This highlights the ghost cultivator’s strongest aspect, with their Divine Soul strength and soul-targeting attacks surpassing ordinary cultivators.

But at that moment, although Lin Chen’s Divine Soul was injured, he still maintained the last remnants of clarity.

Watching the two rapidly approaching cyan-faced, fang-toothed puppets, Lin Chen gritted his teeth, spitting out blood from his tongue.

The physical pain briefly brought clarity to his Divine Soul.

Immediately, Lin Chen clenched his hand and shouted softly:

"Demon Slayer!"

From several hundred meters away, the black long blade rang softly, flying directly into Lin Chen’s hand.

The cool blade, with the mysteries of the Martial Spirit, slightly eased the pain in his Divine Soul.

"Candle Dragon Power!"

Lin Chen gritted his teeth, releasing the power of the Candle Dragon, though his Divine Sense was still somewhat unclear, temporarily unable to fully wield the Vibrating Blade Technique.

Facing the two Cyan-faced, fang-baring evil ghosts rushing toward him, the simplest and most direct approach was: slash them with one strike!

Even without deploying the Vibrating Blade Technique, the powerful enhancement brought by the Candle Dragon Power, along with Lin Chen’s middle-level Martial Sect’s physical attributes.

This strike was incomparably fast and heavy!

With a single slash, the blade light flickered... and the two Ghost Pill Stage evil ghosts were cut in half at the waist!

Lin Chen seized the opportunity to leap several hundred meters back, creating distance between himself and the Ghost-eyed Child.
