Chapter 32: This Is the Prophet's Combat Style!

Night enveloped the ancient valley, a dead silence.

Only the red leopard soaring into the air became the sole light in this region.

However, as the temperature continued to rise, an inexplicable pressure gradually spread, forming an oppression that could not be described in words.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the original black mist gathered, transforming into an ink-thick form rising from the valley.

Just like a awakened giant beast roaring silently.

The black mist quickly spread, blocking the sky and moon, swallowing everything around into darkness.

In this endless darkness, the terrifying roars of a hundred beasts faintly echoed, as if screams from hell.

As the black mist churned and surged, a figure gradually appeared, fused and twisted from countless animal forms.

That was Black Fiend!

It was a physical entity condensed from rolling black mist, a ghostly monster gathered from countless resentful souls who died in the black mist.

Its form flickered, neither human nor beast.

Within its blurred outline, eerie red light occasionally flashed, as if a demon hidden deep in the darkness.

The surrounding air seemed frozen by its evil aura; in the silence, only the howling of the surging black mist remained.

"Roar!"

When the Black Fiend fully manifested.

It opened its seemingly non-existent huge mouth, emitting a deafening roar.

The sound waves struck the valley, sand and stones rattling down, trees shaking violently, as if announcing its arrival to the whole world.

Whoosh!

Just as the Black Fiend was about to fully form, a golden flying sword suddenly sliced through the sky.

In an instant, the Black Fiend gathered from the black mist was split in two; the already formed physical entity even let out a tragic wail.

【I've been waiting for you!】

The golden long sword traced a beautiful arc in mid-air, piercing through the thick black mist again.

Long before this operation, Li Li Boyang had already guessed this operation would not go smoothly.

That evil ghost hidden in Black Cloud Marsh absolutely could not sit idly by while Li Li Boyang and Xi Luo frequently weakened its power.

When a dog is cornered, anything it might do is possible.

For this reason, before tonight's operation, Li Li Boyang specifically used the Destiny Bone Armor to divine.

The result was that tonight's operation carried some risk, but would yield unexpected gains.

If the timing could be seized, it might even be possible to end the Black Cloud Marsh crisis early.

Precisely because of this psychological expectation, Xi Luo was not disturbed by the suddenly appearing Black Fiend, but continued her own operation as usual.

Because Xi Luo trusted Li Li Boyang, believing he could definitely handle that ghost monster born from the black mist.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

At the same time, Li Family Village.

The Li Li Boyang in the cradle quietly opened the third eye between his eyebrows.

At the same time, the Destiny Bone Armor in Li Li Boyang's palm spun rapidly, helping him quickly divine and predict the situation.

【According to the Nine Chapters of Divination Secrets, such things where souls manifest using resentful energy and then attach to some substance or phenomenon are called ghost monsters.】

【Compared to those ghosts in literary works from the previous life, these ghost monsters have physical forms.】

【They often possess power surpassing ordinary ghosts, yet simultaneously inherit the attribute of those ghosts being hard to kill.】

At this moment, Li Li Boyang was multitasking.

On one hand controlling the sword pill to fight that ghost monster, on the other patiently searching for its fatal weakness.

With the assistance of the Destiny Bone Armor, Li Li Boyang quickly analyzed this ghost monster's weakness.

【Can my sword pill eliminate it?】

When the Destiny Bone Armor faced upward, Li Li Boyang finally, slightly surprised, focused his attention on the flying sword.

Before this, Li Li Boyang had vaguely sensed that his sword pill seemed naturally counter those black mists.

Those corrupted beasts eroded by the black mist were simply no match for the sword pill.

But from the current situation.

Not only were those corrupted beasts no match for the sword pill, but tonight's Black Fiend was the same.

The black mist pierced by the flying sword indeed did not gather again.

Let alone the resentful souls attached to those black mists, even the corrupting ability of the black mist itself was purified by the flying sword.

Combined with the gradually rising temperature nearby, those black mists dispersed rapidly like ordinary fog, losing all threat.

Combining the feat of slaying Nafu with one sword strike previously, does this sword pill seem naturally counter ghost monsters and evil gods possessing immortality?

【That old man... really went all out?】

Thinking that this sword pill originally came from the evil ghost in Black Cloud Marsh.

Li Li Boyang inexplicably felt a ridiculous sensation.

That old man refined his soul into this sword pill, not only giving himself the ability to kill the opponent.

But even the tricks the opponent created now were being targeted and dismantled bit by bit.

【Looking at it this way, I, this transmigrator, seem not to be the 'protagonist' in traditional novels?】

Which protagonist would specifically and continuously weaken the villain BOSS before the villain BOSS causes trouble?

Which protagonist does not wait until the villain BOSS gathers strength and assembles a huge army before engaging the villain BOSS in a final great battle?

If the Ghost King of Black Cloud Marsh had read a few novels.

Then it must now be strongly condemning Li Li Boyang for not following the expected patterns.

As the villainous BOSS, I am clearly still in my development stage; why has someone come knocking at my door?

【Pity, but reality holds so few fated coincidences.】

【A skilled warrior leaves no famous battle feats; crushing danger in its cradle is the choice of a normal person.】

All three eyes faintly radiated killing intent; Li Li Boyang had already decided to end this quickly.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the golden flying sword became the sole golden streak of light in the night.

The ear-piercing sound of tearing through the air even terrified the hundred beasts, driving them to flee this dangerous place faster.

"Roar!"

Seeming to sense Li Li Boyang's killing intent, the Black Fiend, which had long failed to coalesce into form, finally erupted in rage.

Since it cannot coalesce into a physical form, then let it simply stop trying to coalesce into a physical form!

The crane cries in the deep marsh, its voice heard in the nine heavens...

Roars from nearly a hundred wild beasts erupted simultaneously from the black mist, at that moment even louder than the ear-piercing sound of tearing through the air.

The next second, tigers, leopards, wolves, insects, turtles, cranes, birds, snakes, and other animals surged out from the black mist.

They were precisely the essence composing the Black Fiend.

They were the spirit souls of those wild beasts that died within the black mist.

Borrowing the power of the black mist, these wild beasts, filled with resentment and unwillingness, each manifested their former living forms, attempting to fight the golden flying sword in mid-air.

Alas, the spirit souls of these wild beasts, when gathered, might perhaps become a terrifying ghost.

But once scattered, they are nothing more than a crowd of lowly resentful ghosts.

Whoosh!

The golden flying sword moved even more effortlessly through the black mist.

In just a few breaths of the Breathing Technique, more than half of those mindless resentful ghosts were slain.
