Chapter 61: God-Level Ghost vs. God-Slaying Squad! Xu Ran: Urgent! [Six Thousand Words!]

"This this……"

"Is this really a combat method that a human cultivator can possess?"

"Those flying head ghosts that could regenerate even after being shattered, and were so disgusting they made us dizzy and want to vomit, were completely annihilated by him with a single blow?"

The practitioners in the third line of defense were stunned.

They stared at the army that was killing everyone and advancing savagely and rapidly, their mouths opening wider and wider.

Look... I'm wet...

Xu Ran's army not only crushed the flying head ghost, but also crushed the "common sense" of human practitioners.

"The higher-ups said that the flying head ghost clone is a divine power bestowed by a god. Since the god is immortal, the clone is also indestructible..."

"What's going on with this boss?"

"Could it be that his divine power is superior to that of the gods?!"

"hiss--"

"hiss--"

There were a series of respectful gasps.

The practitioners in the third line of defense looked at the empty inner city, and then at the army of paper figures scattered in the inner city, killing the scattered flying head ghosts. Their expressions and gazes became so strange.

They couldn't help but hold their breath.

It was nothing else but the oppressive feeling brought by the paper warriors that made them break out in cold sweats on their backs.

Each of the paper warriors seemed to be made of black iron. At first glance, they were cold, hard, cruel, and ruthless... They were like ruthless killing machines, full of oppression!
The claws of eagles, tigers, leopards, and bears are indestructible! The warriors with swords and armor are even more murderous. Every swing of their swords and every blow of their hammers are terrifying!
The picture is so shocking.

Everyone held their breath and didn't even dare to look any longer, because it seemed that if they stared at it, a huge hammer would smash their heads in the next second.

The evil spirit emanating from the puppet alone is enough to shake people's minds! It makes people afraid and awed!

terrible!
It's really scary!
They looked at him in awe, couldn't help swallowing, and were terrified.

However, the third line of defense, which was originally filled with flying head ghosts, was violently cleared out, turning their panic into excitement.

Someone shouted: "The third line of defense has been held!!!"

The young woman in battle robes: "But we still have one..."

Before she finished her words, the assassin mantis, which had already drunk its fill, brought up a blade of light and passed by the young woman fifty centimeters away. With lightning speed, it beheaded the flying head ghost.

The strong wind blew the hair of the young woman in battle robes. She stared at the black shadow that was so fast that even her eyes could not catch it, and her heart trembled violently: "What a fast speed!"

"And, annihilate the flying head ghost with one strike!"

"We tried our best to kill the flying head ghost more than a dozen times, but we couldn't stop the flying head ghost's advance."

"He led a legion of fifty men, yet he was able to sweep across the battlefield."

The huge contrast made the young woman in battle armor feel suffocated.

She seemed to see a towering, insurmountable mountain.

Beside her, her teammates were equally stunned: "One man is an army! One man is an army! If I can achieve even one percent of what he can do, even if I drive a luxury car, live in a villa, and become a Yue realm expert in this life, it will be worth it."

teammate:"……"

The commander of the third line of defense said: "Everyone, the third line of defense has been held. Please rest for a moment, I'm afraid the flying head ghost will come back again."

talking.

The head of the command group walked to the side of the substitute Xu Ran.

"Thank you. When the battle is over, I will report your achievements to the district chief and distribute your rewards."

The paper substitute nodded.

And a few hundred meters behind him.

The invisible Xu Ran smiled faintly.

"Rewards? I didn't expect to get some rewards along the way. That's pretty good."

His original goal was just to let the paper man army absorb enough ghost energy, and he could get some extra rewards, which was a little surprise.

"Hmm... The Flying Head Ghost is pretty powerful. It's easier to kill and devour than other ghosts. Not bad, it saved me half a month."

"However, it also has something to do with Origami possessing a soul... With the existence of a soul, the Paperman Army isn't just simply restraining ghost creatures; they're violently plundering them—tearing apart and plundering their energy. Even if there's a controller behind the scenes, they'll devour them raw. They've become even more brutal."

"On the other hand, the paper figures that have imprisoned souls have more combat skills."

"If I catch a more powerful spirit in the future, maybe I can master the magic?"

Xu Ran analyzed silently. After fighting on a real battlefield, his understanding of his own magical skills gradually deepened.

He was thinking, not noticing...

The three people protecting him were stunned.

Li Wei's face was filled with deep thought. He didn't know where to start or what to say: "Uh..."

Cai Miao hesitated to speak: "..."

Fu Lin: "..." You're not going to say anything, right? If you're not going to say anything, then I won't say anything either.

at the same time.

Jiang Man, the district chief of the sixth district and a powerful Yue Realm expert at the first line of defense, had already noticed Xu Ran's battle record.

now.

The super-class flying head ghost clone in front no longer attacks aggressively.

He quickly diverted his attention and turned back.

I just happened to see the legion standing in the center of the third line of defense, his eyes narrowed, overlooking the battlefield like a king.

awesomeness!

Jiangnan was shocked: "Whose super genius is this? He actually cleared the flying head ghost in half an hour?"

Lu Ha: "That's... Ye Ping, right? After he got injured, he went back to protect the children, and now he's running to District 6... Could he be the super genius from the Jing Province Park?"

Li Liang, the Left General of the Sixth District: "This God-given magical power is a puppet, and it can also restrain ghosts. I have never heard of such a genius before."

Lu Ha, the Right General of the Sixth District: "Could it be... this term?"

Jiang Man shook his head: "How is that possible! The oldest kid in this class is only about ten years old. Even if a ten-year-old kid is a genius, there is no way he can instantly kill a flying head ghost with 10 health points! Not to mention that genius who swept the battlefield directly!"

Lu Ha: "Most likely a genius young man in his twenties who suddenly discovered his divine power to be able to restrain the flying head ghost!!"

The Yue Realm experts murmured a few guesses.

Suddenly, their eyes turned to the distance.

At the end of the horizon, several pillars of light shot up into the sky, breaking up the dark clouds covering the sky.

The shrill ghost screams shook the earth, as if a dragon was turning over.

Then, the flames of the explosion rose into the sky like a mushroom cloud, and several explosions occurred in succession.

In an instant.

Tens of thousands of flying-headed ghosts seemed to be inspired by something. They gave up fighting and resolutely retreated, as if they were going back to rescue something.

See this.

Jiang Man breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the God Slayer team has found the true form of the Flying Head Ghost. As long as we find the true form, its so-called strange abilities will be nothing to worry about."

"Let's go and provide cover. If any of the God Slayers are injured, we can fill in for them."

While talking.

The blood of several Yue Realm masters surged and turned into balls of light, chasing the ghost tide. After a while, they arrived at the gathering place of the flying head ghost tide.

The scene ahead is quite spectacular!

A fire cage one hundred meters high and one hundred meters long stood on the horizon, the flames burning fiercely and distorting the space.

And those tens of thousands of flying head ghosts that retreated at the tide, with purple-black light all over their bodies, rushed towards the flame cage like moths to a flame, desperately trying to extinguish the flames.

One after another, the flying head ghosts collided with the flames, were burned to pieces by the flames, and let out strange and shrill screams. Amid the screams, they quickly glued themselves together and were reborn.

but.

The flame cage was not extinguished, but the flames burned even more fiercely!
Tens of thousands of flying-headed ghosts' bulging eyes became crazy, and they rushed in madly!

The scene was spectacular.

Why would tens of thousands of flying head ghosts madly attack the flaming cage?
Because inside the flaming cage, a beautiful woman's head was locked tightly inside.

The woman's head was as big as a mountain, and the cut on her neck was as smooth as that of other flying-headed ghosts. Her eyes were bloodshot and her tongue was bloody, with a pair of bulging blood-red eyes that flowed with bloody tears.

Seven golden chains were inserted into the woman's eyes, ears, and temples, locking her up.

The woman's head...was in great pain, struggling and screaming in the cage.

"Damn it! My children, rush in, rush in, and destroy the energy of the cage!"

Tens of thousands of flying ghost heads kept rushing towards the caged fire wall, which shook violently.

"Are you anxious now? Where's that arrogance and disgusting energy from earlier?"

"hehe."

Two teams of God Slayers hovered silently above the flaming cage. One team of seven wore flame-colored windbreakers, while the other team of seven wore golden windbreakers.

Fourteen people looked down from above, their windbreakers fluttering in the wind.

"Tsk tsk, there's an expert in the defense line behind us. It only took half a day to find a way to kill the flying head ghost clone. I thought it would take a month."

"Wait until I strip away all its energy before we discuss other matters. Nothing can go wrong. After all... stripping it of its energy will prevent it from making a comeback within ten years."

Lin Feng, the captain of the Golden God-Slaying Team, took a slow step forward, and a fire shield immediately appeared on his body.

"The fire shield is yours. Go in and finish it up, Brother Feng!"

Lin Feng nodded and jumped into the fire prison with a fire shield.

A ball of golden and dark light appeared between his palms, and then pressed against the woman's brow.

"Power deprivation!"

Feeling Lin Feng's divine power, the woman's face was filled with fear, her mouth full of fangs bared, and she screamed at Lin Feng!

The golden chain was straightened and Lin Feng jumped back.

"You're still scaring people when you're about to die. How naughty!"

His eyes suddenly turned cold. A ball of golden and dark light swirled in the woman's head like a hurricane.

Endless ghost energy was drawn out and shot high into the sky, like fireworks bursting.

The woman's head shrank instantly and turned into bones all over the ground.

Outside the flame cage, tens of thousands of flying-headed ghosts turned into melted candles and pools of pollution.

The flying head ghost's energy was stripped away, which was equivalent to a whole realm disappearing completely.

Only an unbreakable evil eye remained, floating out from among the bones...

The evil eyeball was purple to black in color, like a whirlpool, like a nebula, distorting vision, distorting space, distorting light, and distorting mental power.

The eyeballs stared at Lin Feng with a weird look.

Lin Feng tightened his windbreaker and gave a sinister smile: "Don't look at me. If I can break you, I will definitely do it with all my might! Otherwise, I won't just let you go back and lie down for ten years."

As the words fell, the fire prison dissipated.

The other comrades landed beside Lin Feng and looked at the evil eye.

The members of the Flame Windbreaker Team were quite angry: "Another evil eyeball like this! When will we find a way to suppress this bastard? Just looking at this dog eyeball makes me sick!"

Another strong woman in a flame windbreaker, with a queen-like appearance, long legs and a tall figure.

Her face was filled with disgust as she raised her hand and shot out a blue flame ray that shone into the evil eye for half a minute.

But the evil eye was spotless and motionless.

"Resentful gods, god-level ghosts, and god-level crystal beasts all possess this evil eyeball within their bodies... This may be their path to godhood..."

"Who knows? This evil eyeball is so strange and weird. It should be a higher level of power."

"Well, it slowly flew towards the natural disaster contaminated area."

"Damn it! We can't kill it, and we can't even stop it! Ten years from now, it will be fully revived and come back with a vengeance!"

Lin Feng concentrated: "It's okay, one day, we will find a way to deal with them. Now our main task is to buy time. We can't let the aliens destroy the safe zone again!"

talking.

He turned around and glanced at Jiang Man who had rushed over. "The core of the safe zone hasn't been breached, right?"

Jiang Man smiled thankfully: "No, the flying head ghost did not go deep into the inner city."

Fourteen members of the God Slayer Team landed in front of Jiang Man and said, "Tell us what happened? Who was the hero who found the flaw in the Flying Head Ghost?"

Jiang Man: "He is a super genius with the ability to control puppets. He is a bit exaggerated. He is like an army of one man. With one sword, he can not only cut a flying head ghost into pieces, but also completely annihilate it. The third line of defense had more than 10,000 flying head ghost clones, and they were all annihilated by him alone."

Fourteen powerful god-slayers: "..." They fell silent.

Jiang Man spread his hands. "I know you might not believe it, but if there really is such a genius, suddenly appearing in District 6, and leading a strange puppet army, a one-man army, he would destroy the third line of defense..."

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows: "Where is the genius so outrageous?"

The other teammates nodded vigorously. "Theoretically, if the original body isn't found, the other clones can quickly regenerate. This is the Flying Head Ghost's divine power. With this divine power, even we can't kill the Flying Head Ghost's clones... How could this genius actually bypass the opponent's divine power and annihilate the Flying Head Ghost's clones?"

"Who is this person? We should have heard of such a genius before, right? He wouldn't have risen from nowhere."

Jiang Man: "Hmm... I don't know. He's a genius brought by Brother Ye Ping. I haven't asked for his information yet."

Lin Feng: "Oh? Ye Ping, could it be the Time Bone? If it is the Time Bone, I think there is a chance. Let's go, rejoin the team, mission completed, return to the safe zone and rest. Let's go and see that super genius!"

Teammates behind him: "Even if you don't tell us, we still want to go and gain some experience."

So a group of strong men above the Yue realm rushed towards the safe zone in a mighty manner.

In the safe zone.

Xu Ran took back the paper man army and recovered from the invisible state.

Ye Ping: "Is it over? Have you killed ten thousand?"

Xu Ran shook his head: "No. They were all clones. I didn't kill any of them."

"Fortunately, my army of paper figures has absorbed ghost energy and become several times stronger. If we want to kill 10 monsters with more than HP, we have to leave the safe zone. Let's go now! The real body of the flying head ghost should have been killed. It's much safer outside now. It's impossible for two god-level monsters to be watching outside the safe zone at the same time, right?"

Ye Ping looked at Li Wei, Cai Miao, and Fu Lin: "What do you think?"

Li Wei: "When the God Slayer Team returns, we'll ask for information."

Ye Ping: "Okay, let's ask for intelligence first. The God Slayer Squad often travels through Level 1 pollution areas, and even natural disaster-level pollution areas. They know exactly where God-level monsters may be lurking."

Xu Ran nodded: "This is better."

When several people were chatting.

The commander of the third line of defense and the commander of the second line of defense returned to the safe zone with the combat regiment.

"Huh...it's finally over. The oppressive feeling brought by the Flying Head Ghost's weird rebirth ability is really disgusting."

"I need to get some sleep."

"However, let's first say hello to that great man who made such a great contribution."

The two team leaders came to Xu Ran.

"Hello, thank you for your great contribution! The safe zone will give you a reward."

Ye Ping stepped forward and flashed his patrol chief badge. "As for the reward, you'll need to prepare for it for a while. We have something else to do, so please make a note of it. We'll come and get it when the time comes."

The two captains took a look at the badge and said, "Okay."

"Would you like to go to the Duty Department and take a break?"

Cai Miao and the others waved their hands: "No, we still have things to do. You guys should get busy first, the outer city still needs to be rebuilt..."

The two team leaders said: "Okay, we'll leave first."

Watched the two group leaders leave.

Several people walked forward and stood at the edge of the safe zone, quietly waiting for the return of the God-Slaying Squad.

Five minutes later.

The flaming windbreaker and the golden windbreaker fluttered in the air.

They seemed to sense something and landed in front of Xu Ran, Ye Ping, Cai Miao, Fu Lin and Li Wei.

Xu Ran looked at the God-Slaying Team. The windbreakers they wore were quite handsome. There were blood threads spit out by lice and ants sewn on the outside, which could restrain pollution and probably had other effects.

"Hey, Hirako."

Lin Feng: "I heard that this genius you brought here has made a great contribution. Can you introduce him to us?"

Ye Ping proudly pulled out Xu Ran. "Xu Ran, just turned eight years old. Jing Province Demigod Kindergarten, 49th class student."

The fourteen strong men from the God-Slaying Squad were shocked.

"Only eight years old?"

"At only eight years old, he single-handedly chopped down ten thousand flying-head ghost clones? Those clones must have at least 6 HP points, right?"

"What kind of monster is this..."

Their eyes were fixed on Xu Ran, as if they were looking at some rare treasure.

Xu Ran spread his hands, looking modest: "I'm lucky, I just happened to be able to restrain the ghost creatures."

Lin Feng shook his head: "Being able to sweep away ten thousand flying head ghost clones has nothing to do with luck. It's purely because of your strong physical strength. Eight years old, is this eight years old?!"

Liu Yan, the captain of the Flame Squad: "This class is all very strong, [Mirror Image Supreme], [Thousand Thunders of Purification], [Microscopic Myriad Aspects]..."

"If the younger generation is so strong, it seems that we, the God Slayer team, will have to fight for our lives. The safe zone must not be broken."

Lin Feng's eyes were sharp. "Well, the alien monsters want to destroy our safe zone within three years, but we insist on keeping it for five, ten years!"

Xu Ran raised an eyebrow, a little puzzled: "Will the safe zone also be broken?"

Liu Yan said solemnly, "Yes!"

"The safe zone has existed for 170 years. We thought it would last forever, a permanent refuge for China. However, the latest intelligence reveals that if alien races continue to attack the core area, the safe zone will shatter after reaching a certain limit."

Another teammate said, "China's safe zone not only protects China, but also prevents god-level crystal beasts and resentful gods from entering Blue Planet. If the safe zone is broken, then the resentful gods and god-level crystal beasts will crush Blue Planet and turn it into pollution!"

Xu Ran was surprised, and a question arose in his heart: "If that's the case, then how did the Nightmare Mother get into Blue Star?"

The fourteen people were stunned: "This... I don't know."

Xu Ran: “Don’t know?”

Lin Feng spread his hands: "Yeah, we don't have the ability of God level, I really don't know the reason."

Liu Yan also shook his head. "Although we can barely destroy the god's body by working together, we can't destroy its core—the strange eyeball. It can ignore all obstacles and slowly fly back to the natural disaster-level contaminated area... or fly back to the alien planet, then accumulate strength in its lair and make a comeback."

I heard the words weird eyeballs.

Xu Ran perked up. "A strange eyeball? Is it a dark purple eyeball, like a whirlpool, like a nebula, distorting vision, distorting space, distorting light, distorting mental power... a disgusting strange eyeball?"

The fourteen people looked at Xu Ran suspiciously: "There are photos in various popular science books, right? There's no need to get so excited."

Xu Ran: "...Where is that eyeball?"

Lin Feng pointed to the distance and said, "It's flying towards a disaster-level pollution zone."

Xu Ran jumped up: "Can you lead the way for me? I want to find that eyeball!"

The fourteen people didn't have time to ask the reason.

Xu Ran interrupted their spellcasting and said, "Is it flying fast? Can you catch up? Hurry up, don't ask so many questions first, take me to catch up with the eyeball first!"

talking.

Xu Ran's figure flashed and disappeared.

Seeing Xu Ran become invisible, the fourteen people carefully felt it and found that they could not detect Xu Ran's existence.

Everyone was stunned and stood there: "What is this? Invisibility? God-given magical power?"

Liu Yan looked at Ye Ping, his eyes full of questions: "Isn't his divine power a puppet that can restrain ghosts? How can he become invisible?"

Ye Ping: "Hmm... He has a natural talent for understanding. How should I put it? A natural talent for understanding means having many ideas and a broad mindset. At such a young age, he created the art of invisibility. However, most people can't learn it. I haven't learned it yet. There are two geniuses in the kindergarten who have learned it, but they're not as concealed as him."

"As for the puppet that restrains the ghost, it is his divine power - origami."

After listening to the explanation.

The astonishment on the faces of the two God-Slaying Teams became even more intense.

Li Wei, Fu Lin, and Cai Miao were even more astonished. "A talent for comprehension? A self-created invisibility technique? Is that so outrageous? This invisibility technique is practically a divine power, right?!"

Lin Feng exhaled deeply. As the captain of a God-Slaying Squad, he possessed the divine gift of [Energy Deprivation], making him a genius among super geniuses. But even facing Xu Ran's act of creating a new technique, he was stunned. "You can create a divine power of your own? I'd call you invincible!"

Liu Yan keenly sensed something: "That's not right. With your comprehension and aptitude, you can create the invisibility technique. Could it be that you can also create other techniques?"

Xu Ran coughed and interrupted the spell again: "Don't be surprised, lead the way! Urgent!"

He has achieved the Red Gold [Twilight of the Gods], so the evil eye = the origin of divinity.

The origin of divinity, as a god-level treasure that can nourish the [domineering and unique root bone], how can you miss it when you encounter it?
Everyone: "..."

Liu Yan waved his hands and said, "No, why are you in such a hurry to find the eyeball? No one can stop it... It's a god-level item... Compared to the eyeball, we are more interested in you."

Xu Ran threw out a paper substitute: "No, I'm more interested in the eyeball. Take me to find the strange eyeball first. When I come back, I will tell you a secret."

"By the way, how fast is that strange eyeball? If I chase it now, can I still catch up? Will it be a waste of time?"

"Oh, so there aren't any god-level monsters lurking nearby, are there? How dangerous is it?"
