I Can Travel between Two Worlds

Chapter 276 - 23: Red-faced Nether Ghost, Half-Step Nascent Soul! (2)



The scene was exactly the same as the one on the tattoo.

This Red-faced Nether Ghost was a great ghost summoned by the Ghost-eyed Child from the forbidden land of the Ghost-Exorcising Sect.

It was said to be an entity that emerged from hell and entered the cycle of reincarnation thousands of years ago.

At its peak, this Red-faced Nether Ghost possessed the cultivation level of the Primordial Nether Stage, equivalent to a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

After being severely injured, it slept for thousands of years and was tattooed on the back by Ghost Eye, sustained daily by souls.

In the past, during the battle at Jade Belt City, the Ghost-Eyed Old Monster intended to restore the Red-faced Nether Ghost by offering a blood sacrifice of a million mortals and forming the Ten Thousand Ghosts Bewitching Array.

Although he didn’t succeed, over several years of warfare between the Orthodox and Demonic Parties, Ghost Eye killed countless mortals.

Extracting their souls, transforming them into nourishment...

Even though the Red-faced Nether Ghost had not recovered its peak cultivation, it was still unmatched by an ordinary Nine Revolutions Golden Core.

After being summoned, the Red-faced Nether Ghost trembled its arms, raising a Red Spear high.

The sky immediately filled with dark clouds, and gales swirled chaotically.

"As the Nether Ghost emerges, ten thousand ghosts heed my command..."

With a light chant from the Red-faced Nether Ghost, the ghostly remnants defeated by Lin Chen began to gather and rush towards the Red-faced Nether Ghost.

The Red-faced Nether Ghost opened its mouth, swallowing the fragments entirely, its body growing increasingly powerful.

From hundreds of meters away, Lin Chen squinted as he observed this scene.

Anyone with discerning eyes could see that this Red-faced Nether Ghost was far from an ordinary ghostly being.

Thus, Lin Chen increased his urgency, aiming to quickly resolve the Snow Woman Ghost and Ghostly Wailing Evil Spirit.

Only then could he focus entirely on dealing with this great ghost.

"Damn it, what exactly is this Red-faced Ghost’s origin... Judging by its aura, it’s probably beyond Core Formation."

Lin Chen felt a surge of unease.

But he gauged the location of the underground safehouse; if needed, he could simply abandon Li Tianhan and escape.

After all, the distance wasn’t even a hundred miles. At Lin Chen’s speed, he could extricate himself from the Nether Ghost’s grasp.

With this in mind, Lin Chen relaxed slightly, focusing on dealing with the two mid-Ghost Pill Stage fierce ghosts.

Holding the Demon-slaying Blade, Lin Chen’s True Essence vibrated as he continuously slashed at the two fierce ghosts.

The two fierce ghosts were already struggling to withstand the blows, as they were both restrained by the Martial Arts Puppet and relentlessly struck by Lin Chen.

"Damn it, these ghostly beings are really troublesome..."

"If only there were a weapon specifically for dealing with these ghostly beings."

Lin Chen sighed. The Demon-slaying Blade was most effective against Demon Beasts, and then corporeal beings.

But against this kind of ghostly being, its power was noticeably lacking.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t take Lin Chen so long to deal with mere Ghost Pill Stage fifth and sixth turners.

Lin Chen delivered a few more slashes, scattering the fierce ghost remnants, while muttering softly:

"Jade Ghost!"

Upon receiving the command, the Jade Ghost quickly began to devour.

After several rounds, the Ghostly Wailing Evil Spirit fell under Lin Chen’s blade, completely devoured by Jade Ghost.

Only the Snow Woman Ghost remained, barely holding on, her beautiful face pale from fear, desperately trying to escape.

Lin Chen seized the opportunity to slash mercilessly, showing no tenderness, cleaving the Snow Woman Ghost in half.

The Jade Ghost immediately devoured the Snow Woman Ghost’s remnants, and its cultivation increased dramatically within moments.

Originally, the Jade Ghost was at the Peak of Soul Condensation Stage, equivalent to Foundation Establishment.

After being tamed by Lin Chen, it regressed to Soul Gathering (Qi Refining Stage).

After years of slumber, it returned to the Peak of Soul Condensation.

After a hearty meal today, the Jade Ghost’s cultivation directly reached the middle of the Ghost Pill Stage.

It even seemed poised to breakthrough to the late stage threshold.

"Hic~ Many thanks to the Master..."

At this moment, the Jade Ghost spoke softly, with a female voice, carrying a touch of allure.

Lin Chen was taken aback and asked, "Aren’t you male?"

The Jade Ghost explained:

"I was birthed by the heavens and earth, without gender. After devouring the Nail Swamp Evil Ghost and the Snow Woman Ghost, I naturally leaned towards human femininity..."

Lin Chen felt speechless upon hearing this.

"If Master dislikes it, I can change the voice." As she spoke, the Jade Ghost’s voice shifted from a mature tone to that of a young girl.

Lin Chen immediately felt a tingling on his scalp.

"Master doesn’t like it? How about this..." (This is loli voice.)

Lin Chen shouted, "Shut up, will you!"

The Jade Ghost, hearing this, dared not flirt and quickly closed her mouth. She had just absorbed many memory fragments from the Snow Woman’s remnants and wanted to give them a try.

...

After dealing with the two Ghost Pill Stage fierce ghosts, Lin Chen looked towards the distant Red-faced Nether Ghost.

By now, this Red-faced Nether Ghost had fully materialized, displaying a terrifying smile on its red face.

"Is it you who forced Ghost Eye to this point?"

"Let me see... just what you’re made of!"

With those words, the Red-faced Nether Ghost charged towards Lin Chen.

Covering the distance of hundreds of meters, it arrived beside Lin Chen in a blink of an eye.

Next, it grabbed two long spears and thrust them towards Lin Chen.

The spears moved extremely fast, forceful and fierce, like a flood dragon bursting from the sea.

Just from this strike, Lin Chen knew that this Red-faced Nether Ghost was extraordinary, so he unleashed his Protective True Essence, directly meeting the spear.

The long spear stabbed into the Protective True Essence, causing ripples like a lake’s surface.

Immediately, fine cracks appeared on the Protective True Essence.

Seeing this, Lin Chen’s face changed slightly. This was the first enemy to shatter his Protective True Essence with a single blow.

Not daring to underestimate, Lin Chen quickly gathered more True Essence, pouring it into the shield, barely blocking the strike.

"To use my own strength against me, interesting..."

The Red-faced Nether Ghost knew the power of its own strike, something that even a cultivator at the late Core Formation couldn’t resist.

"Then, how about another strike?"

The Red-faced Nether Ghost raised the other Red Spear with its left hand, thrusting again.

With the two long spears striking repeatedly, the Protective True Essence was on the verge of shattering.
