Chapter 424: Terrifying Net

After taking out the prepared items, Lin Feng thought for a moment and still left the military camp with Tou Gui; the commotion of advancing to become a God Ghost was not small, and advancing inside the military camp was clearly inappropriate.

Now that they had arrived outside the military camp, it was actually much the same as inside; under the shroud of the grand formation, the open space between the encampment and the military camp appeared desolate and tranquil.

"Begin!"

Lin Feng had Tou Gui stand ready, then set up the offerings and began the sacrificial ritual.

Accompanied by the burning of incense and candles, that God Ghost limb was erased bit by bit, eventually being entirely converted into pure ghost power and merging into Tou Gui's body.

Very quickly, the shadow power around Tou Gui began to boil and frantically spread toward the surroundings; the next moment, Lin Feng waved his hand, and invisible spatial power descended upon this place, sealing off the space around Tou Gui.

Soon, Tou Gui opened her eyes amidst the extremely dense shadow power; at this moment, her expression no longer looked as immature as before, but instead possessed a sense of inexplicable majesty.

However, due to the obstruction of the spatial power, that sense of oppression unique to a God Ghost did not affect the surroundings, until finally, as Tou Gui completely became a God Ghost, the surrounding spatial power gradually vanished.

"Master! Master! Look, look, have I grown a little bit?"

Having recovered, Tou Gui instantly transformed into a shadow and appeared before Lin Feng, then happily spun around in front of him.

"Indeed, you have grown a bit, and you look even prettier than before!"

Watching her changes, Lin Feng did not stint on his praise; it had to be said that the current Tou Gui had already shed the immaturity of a young girl and had become somewhat bewitching.

"Hee hee, yay!"

Hearing Lin Feng's praise, Tou Gui appeared exceptionally happy, even forgetting to demonstrate her ability changes.

Regarding this, Lin Feng did not particularly mind; he let Tou Gui happily fool around for a while before letting her begin to demonstrate her own abilities.

"Master, I am very powerful now, oh!"

Tou Gui had not yet fully recovered, saying this first before beginning to demonstrate the abilities gained after her advancement.

"Whoosh~"

Like a breeze brushing past, a series of extremely fine shadows instantly spread out in every direction.

These shadows presented various postures, as if something were leaving imprints between heaven and earth; the special aspect was that these shadows would at times condense and at times spread out into mist.

Even more terrifying was that there was a thread between these shadows so fine that it was impossible for the naked eye to perceive; Lin Feng did not notice it at first, until he finally used the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils to see those threads that resembled a net.

"Swish, swish, swish! Clang, clang~"

Thus, Lin Feng casually tossed a few ghost weapons toward these threads; immediately, these ghost weapons were directly turned into fragments as if they had encountered something extremely sharp.

"How far can the range of these threads spread?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Feng's expression became slightly solemn; he had not expected that Tou Gui's advancement this time would yield such a special ability.

"Very far, very far, does Master want to try and see?"

Hearing Lin Feng's voice become so solemn, Tou Gui also became serious, then pointed outside the encampment and said this to Lin Feng.

"Be careful, do not move your main body."

Lin Feng glanced outside and then gave her a word of caution; soon, a series of afterimages began to dash toward the distance, finally stopping only after spreading hundreds of miles away.

This was not because this was the only distance Tou Gui could extend, but because Lin Feng understood that such a long distance was enough to do many things!

"Heaven-enveloping and Earth-covering Net, hahaha, I didn't expect it to come so easily!"

This ability of Tou Gui would undoubtedly have a huge effect, especially when used for passive defense; once set up, it would become a great lethal weapon!

"Master, am I powerful?"

Seeing Lin Feng so happy, Tou Gui also felt a faint secret joy in her heart, so she asked Lin Feng somewhat boastfully.

"Mm, powerful! Very powerful!"

"Next, you will distribute the shadows to these places as I said, and keep your main body in the military camp without moving. Additionally, I will have the Zhiren Army bestow a portion of their power onto you to strengthen the effect of these threads."

"If the plan goes smoothly, we will successfully complete our expansion next; no matter how many people the other side sends, it will be useless!"

Lin Feng spoke of his plan to Tou Gui with some excitement; just a moment ago he was still worrying about how to complete the expansion, but now with this ability, many things had immediately become much simpler.

Soon, Lin Feng returned to the military camp with Tou Gui and began to make detailed arrangements; that very day, blurry and dim shadows spread from the military camp as the center to various locations hundreds of miles outside the encampment.

These shadows themselves did not appear to have anything particularly special about them, especially in the Underworld where ghostly winds swept and sand and stones flew; they were hard to discover unless one got close.

However, the key point was not these shadows at all, but the invisible threads connecting them; these threads used each shadow as a fulcrum to connect to one another, eventually forming a massive net centered on the military camp that covered a radius of over four hundred miles.

At this time, Tou Gui received a partial blessing of power from the Zhiren Army, which greatly strengthened the cutting effect of these threads; according to Lin Feng's tests, any ghost below the God Ghost level would be instantly cut into fragments if it passed through these threads.

If a God Ghost of the same level were entangled by the fine threads and lacked special abilities, they would be unable to break free, because they would immediately attract a large number of shadows to besiege them, just like an insect falling into a spider web.

"Immediately begin building new encampments with each mine as the center; once materials, bricks, stones, ghost prisons, and deity statues are all finished, hand them directly to the Zhiren Army!"

After setting up such a trap, Lin Feng immediately began to issue orders; the effect of the entire Heaven-enveloping and Earth-covering Net was quite powerful, and combined with the other forces in his hands, it was enough to ensure the encampment construction process would not be affected.

Then Lin Feng naturally would not be polite anymore; next, as long as he expanded the scale of the entire formation again and again, he would eventually possess an increasingly strong suppression effect!

As long as he could reach the level of suppressing a True Monarch's power, then even if all the sources of calamity from the Heaven Beyond Heaven descended, Lin Feng would dare to fight them!

Following Lin Feng's order, the various forging workshops in the military camp immediately started up, and a large number of craftsmen and apprentices began to work until they were run off their feet.

The materials that had already been completed were transported away in batches by the Zhiren Army and then left the military camp directly through the Ghost Gates leading to various mine strongholds.

Finally, these materials would be turned into sturdy encampments inside and outside the mines; expanding territory, enhancing the defense of the mines, and strengthening the effects of the formations were all tied to these newly built encampments!

After making these arrangements in the military camp, Lin Feng began to cultivate the Twin Ghosts and the Writing Ghost; he wondered what kind of surprises they could bring him.
