Mortal: Supreme Being of the Ghost Path

Chapter 4 The Fisherman Reaps the Benefit

Meanwhile, Yuan Yao, dressed in a black robe that completely covered her body, led the way with the Soul-Crying Beast. The journey went smoothly, and they did not encounter any powerful ghosts.

After walking for a long time, they finally disturbed a powerful ghost that was wandering aimlessly in mid-air.

The ghostly spirit was indistinct in appearance, appearing as a ghostly shadow, its entire body shrouded in mist. It immediately produced a green bead the size of a thumb.

Green Pearl released a burst of dark, icy energy, trapping Yuan Yao within it, and for a moment, she gained the upper hand.

Meanwhile, the Soul-Crying Beast was entangled by two humanoid ghosts covered in green fur and had no chance to escape.

These two humanoid ghosts had long, pointed heads and each held a short, white bone fork several feet long in each hand, making them no different from ordinary green-haired zombies.

At this moment, they were wielding two bone forks, spewing out green ghost fire from their mouths, and relentlessly attacking the Howling Soul Beast with fierce momentum.

Qin Han concealed himself within the ghostly mist, watching the scene with a cold gaze.

If he remembered correctly, those two humanoid ghosts should be "Oni Yasha".

This is a very rare type of zombie, and one of the few ghosts that can move around in daylight.

The Soul-Crying Beast was still relatively weak in its cultivation. Apart from being able to use the Soul-Absorbing Divine Light, it did not possess any other supernatural abilities. It was not surprising that it was entangled by the two Ghost Yakshas.

Qin Han stared expressionlessly at the Crying Soul Beast, which spewed out yellow light from its nostrils. No matter how fierce the ghost fire was, it was all absorbed into its belly once it was enveloped by this light.

He suppressed the urge to launch a sneak attack and secretly used his divine sense to probe the movements behind him.

Just then, a young cultivator with skin that wasn't particularly dark but whose appearance was unremarkable, and a beautiful young woman with a thin veil on her face slowly appeared within his spiritual sense range.

Qin Han wasn't afraid that Han Li would discover his existence, because the original owner's cultivation level before his death was already at the peak of the late Core Formation stage, just one step away from reaching the peak of Core Formation.

Even though Han Li had cultivated the Great Evolution Technique, with his early Core Formation stage cultivation, it was impossible for him to have a stronger divine sense than his own.

In addition, this ghostly place greatly reduces the range of a cultivator's spiritual sense, which is why Qin Han was able to hide in the ghostly mist and spy on them without any scruples.

At this moment, Han Li and the others naturally noticed the black-robed man who was fighting with the ghostly figure.

Perhaps because they had previously refused Han Li and the others' invitation to join forces, when they saw the black-robed man fall below, they did not immediately choose to attack. Instead, they stood there and talked to each other leisurely.

After a long time, the man in black robes could no longer hold on. He was trapped in mid-air by wisps of chilling yin energy.

Seeing this, the black ghost, which had been fighting it for a long time, let out a shriek and suddenly transformed into a streak of black light, shooting straight toward the man in black robes.

Seeing that Yuan Yao was about to be severely injured, Qin Han, who was hiding in the ghostly mist, couldn't help but show a look of joy, thinking to himself, "It seems that not all the people in this Ghostly Land are brainless."

Look at these demon yakshas; not only are their skills so profound, but they also know how to defeat them one by one.

After all, the longer they fight, the more advantageous the situation will be for them!

Even so, Qin Han did not place any hope in them.

He didn't believe that someone as shrewd as Han Li would be so foolish as to stand by and watch. Besides, in the original story, Han Li intervened at a crucial moment, and it seemed he had also set his sights on the Howling Soul Beast.

Therefore, even if Qin Han doesn't provoke Han Li, they will inevitably clash sooner or later because of the Soul-Crying Beast.

As expected! Just as Qin Han was pondering to himself, Han Li, who had been watching coldly from a distance, suddenly made his move without warning.

With a simple gesture, four or five slender, cyan sword energies shot out from his sleeve, striking the dark figure and forcibly forcing it back.

The black-robed man, having survived the ordeal, didn't have time to think and hurriedly flew towards Han Li's direction. At the same time, the Howling Soul Beast followed closely behind, climbed onto the black-robed man's shoulder, and sat still, behaving extremely obediently.

Watching the scene unfold, Qin Han snorted coldly, inwardly sneering, "Very good! Let them make a scene, the bigger the commotion, the better, hehehehe..."

Just then, with a few "poof" sounds, seven or eight identical demons sprang out from the surrounding mist.

Upon seeing them, Qin Han immediately recognized them as a ferocious ghost called "Wei Wu" from the original story.

They had horns on their foreheads and sharp fingers, making them truly ferocious in appearance. Although their strength was far inferior to the two ghostly figures, they were not much weaker than cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

"Let me add some firewood for you..."

Taking advantage of the fierce battle in the arena, Qin Han's body, hidden in the ghostly mist, suddenly flashed and flew straight in a certain direction.

After about half a cup of tea's time, Qin Han returned directly to this place.

Meanwhile, Han Li and the others easily dealt with the "Wei Wu" ghosts, leaving only the black shadow struggling to hold on.

Just as he was about to finish him off in one fell swoop, Han Li's expression suddenly changed. Without hesitation, he raised his hand, and five or six cyan sword energies shot out to his side.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the thick yin mist surged and churned, as if it had been blocked by something!

Immediately afterwards, a gray ghostly figure flew out of the mist and went straight to the side of the black ghostly figure, staring coldly at Han Li and the others.

"The show is about to begin..."

Qin Han concealed himself once more, hiding in the shadows and watching the scene unfold.

After all, only when that gray ghostly figure is present can their strength increase greatly, and they can even use the "spirit possession" technique to transform it into the three-headed tiger demon mentioned in the original work.

In this way, he could take advantage of the chaos when they were preoccupied with other matters.

And indeed, after Han Li exchanged blows with him for several rounds, a large amount of mist suddenly surged from the black figure's body, and it opened its mouth, spitting out a green bead the size of a thumb.

As soon as the green bead appeared, it released streams of dark, icy energy that instantly enveloped Han Li's two flying swords.

Seeing that Han Li was preoccupied and unable to attend to anything else, Qin Han, who was hiding in the ghostly mist, snorted coldly. His cold eyes flashed with blood-red light, and he finally decided to make his move.

A nearly transparent phantom suddenly flashed past in the hazy, ghostly mist.

The next instant, a very faint fluctuation suddenly came from the air behind the man in black robes.

The fluctuation was so subtle that ordinary cultivators could not detect it at all, but the man in black robes was, after all, a Core Formation stage cultivator, and his divine sense was not weak. He sensed something was wrong the moment the fluctuation appeared.

Just as she was about to turn around to check, it was too late.

A pitch-black, semi-transparent ghostly claw suddenly emerged from behind her without warning!

The ghostly claw had long, slender fingers with a sinister glow at the tips, carrying a chilling aura as it reached straight for the Soul-Crying Beast perched on her shoulder!

"Not good—" The black-robed man's pupils shrank suddenly, and before he could even utter a cry of alarm, Qin Han's entire figure had already emerged from the ghostly mist.

He was surrounded by swirling ghostly mist, his face blurred, and a pair of blood-red eyes flickered uncertainly in the mist.

The terrifying pressure of the Ghost King level was released without reservation, like a mountain descending down on the two people in front of him!

"You beast, come here now!"

Qin Han let out a low shout, and the outstretched ghost claw had already touched the fur of the Howling Soul Beast.

The Soul-Crying Beast felt this irresistible pressure and let out a sharp screech, its emerald green fur standing on end.

He instinctively opened his mouth and spat out a beam of yellow light, while struggling desperately at the same time.

Seeing this, Qin Han snorted coldly, and the dark mist around him suddenly surged. The black mist, radiating a bone-chilling cold, gushed out like a tide and collided with the yellow glow.

The moment the two forces intertwined, they emitted a hissing, corrosive sound, which actually blocked the yellow glow!

At the same time, Qin Han suddenly slammed out his other ghost claw!

This palm strike may seem ordinary, but the chilling power it contains is enough to freeze the primordial spirit of a cultivator in the early stage of Core Formation on the spot.

Before the palm strike even arrived, the man in black robes felt a bone-chilling cold rush from his spine to the top of his head, as if the blood in his body was about to freeze!

With a muffled thud, a palm struck the black-robed man squarely on the back...
