Chapter 48: The Ghost Face Has Been Eaten! Who Is Whose Food After All?

【System Prompt】: Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing the residual phantom of the Sect Ancestor! You will comprehend the Sect's supreme spiritual technique, the 【Three Pure Ones Art】!

【System Prompt】: Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully absorbing the residual spiritual energy of the Sect Ancestor! Your spiritual energy has surged, and you have broken through to the third level of the innate Qi Refining Realm!

Two consecutive system prompts rang in Su Qiu's ears.

He was even more excited! You must know, he had only absorbed one-quarter of the Sect Ancestor's residual phantom so far!

Just this one-quarter of spiritual energy absorption had allowed him to break through from the first level of the innate Qi Refining Realm to the third! If he were to absorb all the spiritual energy from the Ancestor's residual phantom.

Then,

to what level would his Xiuwe break through? The fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

Or the sixth?

Or the eighth? Thinking of all this, Su Qiu drove his own spiritual energy even more frantically; he accelerated his energy absorption from the ghost face!

The rapid loss of Yin energy within its body directly broke the ghost face's defenses.

It looked in disbelief at the tiny person before it, who was less than one-tenth its own size, and let out bursts of exclamation:

"Impossible!"

"You, a mere mortal from the outside world, how can you harm me?"

"How can you contain my vast Yin energy with a body of flesh and blood?"

The ghost face was completely dumbfounded.

Clearly, it was the most terrifying thing in this home.

Clearly, it was the taboo that the Chosen Ones feared the most.

But why, why could it be harmed by a Chosen One who entered the Ghost Domain? This style of events shouldn't be happening to it at all! It couldn't believe it.

However, the loss of Yin energy within its body was real.

The ghost face understood.

If it continued to let Su Qiu absorb its Yin energy, it might truly perish in its own exclusive Ghost Domain!

Thinking of this, the ghost face could no longer sit still.

It gritted its teeth,

and decisively channeled its Yin energy to sever the part of its body that Su Qiu was biting.

After doing this, the terrifying loss of Yin energy from the ghost face's body finally stopped. "Eh?"

Feeling that the spiritual energy was no longer surging into his body, Su Qiu looked up in confusion.

He saw that the ghost face he had been biting had dissipated and vanished.

It had turned into a mass of dense black energy, and in the span of just one second, it had fled to a place more than ten meters away.

The ghost face, having re-condensed its form, was different from before; its body was missing one-quarter. Looking at this scene,

Su Qiu smiled.

He licked his lips lightly, and holding the three-foot-long sword in his hand, he stepped toward the ghost face: "What are you running for? I haven't enjoyed enough yet."

Hearing this, the ghost face, standing ten meters away and sizing up Su Qiu, shuddered.

It hurriedly retreated.

It turned into a mass of dense Yin energy, wanting to get away from Su Qiu.

But unfortunately, Su Qiu's speed was clearly faster than its own! "Where do you think you're going?"

Su Qiu, having channeled the 【Three Pure Ones Art】 to flash in front of the ghost face, gave a shy smile, and then, he raised the long sword in his hand.

"Whoosh—!!"

Accompanied by a crisp cutting sound, another quarter of the ghost face was sliced off by Su Qiu.

And then,

Su Qiu actually sucked this piece of sliced-off Yin energy into his mouth right in front of the ghost face! "Comfortable!"

Hearing this sigh, the ghost face turned its head stiffly.

Its hideous face looked even more hideous, because the Yin energy in its body had clearly decreased by another quarter!

Damn it! This damned guy in front of me is full of weirdness.

Not only him himself, but even the weapon he carries can harm my true form!

What the hell is the point of playing this game!

If it continues to stay in this place, it will definitely be eaten clean by Su Qiu! Thinking of this,

the ghost face began to gather the remaining Yin energy in its body toward the center. It was going to self-destruct!

As long as a portion of its Yin energy could escape Su Qiu's capture, it could use this opportunity to be reborn!

"Damned guy, you think you can eat me just like that?"

"Hahahaha!"

"Don't dream!"

After mocking Su Qiu, the ghost face decisively detonated this body.

Only, the scene it had imagined did not come to pass as expected.

The ghost face's Yin body was indeed detonated, and its consciousness did indeed cover the hundreds of Yin energy fragments that exploded outward.

But, what was different was that these hundreds of Yin energy fragments could not scatter and escape.

Because.

They were all wrapped in a strange golden light!

This golden light was not very hard; if it were fused together, it could definitely break it easily!

But now, its power had been split into hundreds of parts following the self-destruction! With the power of a single Yin energy fragment, it was impossible to shatter this hazy golden light!

"I said,"

"You cannot escape."

Just at this moment, Su Qiu's voice came from above the hundreds of Yin Qi fragments.

The ghost face raised its head to look upward.

Only to see,

Su Qiu, radiating golden light all over his body, was smiling and waving at it.

As Su Qiu performed a beckoning motion, the light sphere covering all of its Yin Qi began to compress, while simultaneously flying toward his palm.

"No!"

The ghost face was completely desperate.

It sent out pleas to Su Qiu, its eyes filled with supplication.

But to Su Qiu.

The ghost face had been food from the very beginning; a delicacy already prepared and placed before him, so it was impossible for him to let it go, therefore Su Qiu decisively ignored the ghost face's pleas and, in one bite, swallowed the light sphere into his belly!

The light sphere entered his body.

That layer of golden film covering the ghost face's Yin Qi also began to dissipate.

Surging spiritual energy began to assimilate all of the ghost face's Yin Qi, and it was also at this moment that the ghost face's consciousness began to gradually melt into the darkness. 【System Prompt】: Congratulations to the host! Successfully absorbed all the spiritual energy from the residual phantom of the Sect Ancestor, your Xiuwe has been promoted to the sixth level of the Innate Body Refining Realm! Innate Qi Refining Realm sixth level! Feeling the surging energy fluctuations within his body, Su Qiu smiled; this trip to the Shenmi Quyu truly did not live up to his expectations! It was simply too satisfying!

"Alright!"

"The spiritual arts and spiritual energy left behind by the Ancestor have all been absorbed by me."

"Then next, I should go."

"Calculating the time, interesting things should be happening outside soon."

Before entering the Wardrobe.

Su Qiu remembered very clearly.

Master is coming soon; in the time he spent in the Shenmi Quyu, would Master have already arrived at the Zongmen Jindi to wait?

He was very curious. 【'Mama' has arrived at the elevator entrance! She is taking the elevator to go Home Door!】

【According to the elevator's ascent speed, 'Mama' will arrive at the Home Door in at most one minute; has Su Qiu not left the Wardrobe yet?】

【I don't know! We can't see Su Qiu's perspective right now.】

【Not being able to see Su Qiu's perspective means he hasn't left the Wardrobe yet; as long as he stays in the Wardrobe, could he miss the 【Mama Knocking】 event?】

【If that's the case, Su Qiu wouldn't violate this rule!】

【I really hope Su Qiu doesn't come out.】

【Yeah! If this blockhead really comes out of the Wardrobe, he might end the game early.】
