Several fleeing yers looked back, their expressions filled with even more fear.
“It’s Ghost Jack indeed! Damn it, why would we run into him here!”
“This fellow has a bounty of over thirty million Starlight coins, a high-level wanted criminal!”
“He’s treating us like prey, damn it!!”
They were both afraid and angry, squeezing out all their potential to flee. Meanwhile, Ghost Jack maintained a certain distance and slowly pursued them, just like ying with his prey.
The yers grew increasingly desperate.
At this point, General Dead Bone had already hidden in a nearby alley. A wisp of ck mist released from its palm merged with the surrounding environment and a faint domain power enveloped all personnel.
One of General Dead Bone’s creeds: never to intervene in anything beyond the mission.
Once these yers ran far away, they could continue their journey.
But then the Ghost d in a ck cloak stopped in his tracks. After standing still for three to four seconds, his head suddenly twisted ny degrees, turning towards Dead Bone. His eyes, which were deeply sunk in, widened, and the corners of his mouth turned upwards.
“Found you, more interesting prey.”
He swung his knife suddenly. His dark red Knife Intent, filled with extreme killing intent, spread out from him, causing all the creatures hidden in the surrounding ck mist, which wanted to pounce out, to tremble and shrink back again.
Isloa’s pupils contracted.
“This Artistic Conception…”
It’s stronger than hers! It carried the intent to ughter everything, as if all enemies standing before him were pigs and sheep that had their necks washed and were ready for ughter.
No wonder, the obviously not weak Goblin Warrior was killed without any resistance earlier.
Under the cover of Knife Intent and killing intent, it indeed had no power to resist.
General Dead Bone frowned slightly and sighed softly.
He also suddenly swung out an equally fierce and unmatched Shadow sh, which collided with the red glow of the killing intent of the knife. The sharp energy spewed out, making the surrounding earth riddled with holes.
A raging ck me also burned around General Dead Bone, and he stared at the Ghost from a hundred meters away.
‘It’s time to retreat.’
Dead Bone thought.
He openly disyed his powerful strength on purpose, without covering the ‘special effects’. This was to let the enemy weigh his strength.
ording to normal logic, yers in the wild are unwilling to confront enemies they are not fully confident about. Even hunters would worry about the prey being too strong which may result in their own injuries.
Getting injured in the wild is a big taboo.
However, Ghost Jack was a lunatic who never talked about normal logic.
He just looked more delighted, like a wolf seeing a beautiful woman. His momentum and Artistic Conception seemed even more rampant and terrifying, like a tide rolling over.
Dead Bone: “???”
Is this even logical?
He had no choice. Through Spiritual Link he told Duo Lai, Isloa and others, “You go and save people first, I will be thereter.”
“But this ghost… He has a double Artistic Conception that can be fused, and his level is far above ours.”
And General Dead Bone’s level was even below General Duo Lai. No matter how good he was at fighting, he had his limits.
Isloa made a lot of sense, and Dead Bone agreed with her.
“This is indeed a very terrifying enemy. However, as long as we finish rescuing the target, we can leave at any time. You understand, right?”
Lord was overseeing their team, so Dead Bone was assured.
Isloa understood.
General Duo Lai scratched his head.
They continued towards their destination, while General Dead Bone blocked the overwhelming momentum of the Ghost and initiated a counterattack, as invisible powers of the Curse descended one after another.
The Ghost’s body slightly sunk, but his twisted smile was still there. He licked his lips and lunged forward like a shadow.
Swords and knives shed repeatedly.
Almost all the attacks were from the Ghost, but Dead Bone’s defense was also solid. It seemed that in terms of power and speed, he was not at a significant disadvantagepared to the Warlord Level Ghost.
“A great enemy, indeed.”
Dead Bone’s gaze was solemn.
Ghost Jack retreated dozens of meters away and started tough creepily. He even flipped the de of his knife and shed his body, making several wounds.
The bright red blood flowed out, flowing into the de, which made the long knife look more eerie and terrifying. The Artistic Conception around his body seemed to materialize, showing a faint red, covering dozens of meters around him.
Suffocating!
Extremely suffocating killing intent spread out.
Even the yers who had fled a good distance felt a tightness in their chests and found it hard to breathe.
“It’s over, this brave man is going to die!”
“This brave man doesn’t seem weak either, he just defended against Ghost’s several moves.”
“You know nothing, just now the Ghost was merely ying with his prey. Now he’s going for a real attack. I’ve heard a bit about this move. It’s a killing move drawn by his own blood after integrating several knifing skills and killing intent Artistic Conception. It carries dozens of technique variations, and it’s extraordinarily powerful.”
“You can’t dodge it, you can’t block it either!”
“This brave man is definitely going to lose. We’d better run, too. Otherwise, we’ll be next.”
The rolling killing intent, 99% of it falls on Dead Bone.
As the Ghost shed, the scattered faint Artistic Conception of killing intent that had already materialized around him, surged like a blood wave. The killing intent was overwhelming.
The rolling Knife Intent also tore the ground, frozen space, and made the surrounding ck mist keep retreating.
Dead Bone attacked back.
It seemed like amon sword move, just like before. But,
Hum
The moment Wailing Death collided with the red Knife Intent, the vast power was truly revealed.
It was as if a towering mountain, covered with skeletons, stood behind Dead Bone. Undead on the mountain shouted its name. Stars of Undead energy gathered to form streams, forming a river that flowed from Wraith Sacred Mountain, down to Dead Bone, through refining and pressing for dozens of times, integrated through dozens of techniques, then merged with several high-level skills, and finally burst out from the ck giant sword.
It transformed into the shocking and unadorned Stygian River!
With a dominant force, it swept away everything in its path.
What Knife Intent, killing intent, blood tide, whether tangible or intangible, all dissipated, only the Stygian River was roiling along,pletely engulfing the Ghost who was maintaining the shing pose, and crashed into the buildings in the distance.
The buildings also went under the gradually dissipative Stygian River.
Dead Bone wiped the sweat that couldn’t possibly exist on his skull and looked at the missing corpse of the Ghost, only then did he feel slightly relieved.
He pondered again that this move was not perfect enough.
Far away,
Duo Lai and others hadn’t run far when they saw the rolling ck river overwhelmingly swallowing the ‘incredibly tiny’ Ghost.
Isloa looked at the clean and tidy road, which was devoid of a speck of dust and had sunk quite a lot, and then at General Dead Bone standing in the middle of the road,pletely calm and rxed.
She fell into contemtion.
She came to a conclusion.
“So this is what General meant by ‘will be thereter’, isn’t it?”
