Chapter 187: [Reverse Ancient Five Elents Formation]
Translator: 549690339
Lu Xun saw it. In this fortuitous circumstance, he saw the Ghost King imprisoned on the platform hanging in midair!
To be exact, this wasn’t a Ghost King at all!
What he saw was a person, a person shrouded in a pitch-black cloak!
He couldn’t distinguish the face or figure, but he was certain that it was a human!
Or rather… this might more likely be a corpse!
And the surging Yin Qi and Ghost Qi were emanating from this very corpse.
Five colossal chains were bound to its four limbs and its neck. The chains were black, but they bore golden runes that flickered intermittently.
They seed to harbour so sort of mysterious power, these were no ordinary chains.
The other end of the chains was hooked to the wall, the wall was covered with dense, abstruse runes!
Even though it was just a fleeting glimpse, this corpse left an extrely deep impression on Lu Xun.
In a split second, several thoughts ran through his mind.
“Why is this corpse able to produce such terrifying Yin Qi and Ghost Qi?”
“Why did the players that ca to Boundless Mountain later say that here a Ghost King equivalent to the fifth realm was sealed?”
“Also, there were players who happened to catch sight of it, probably when they were flung away, and they claid it was a horrifying ghost that was imprisoned!”
But what Lu Xun saw was definitely not a ghost!
So, it’s very likely that he arrived earlier than the players.
During that period, this place might indeed have been holding a Ghost King captive, but now it was housing this corpse!
“What’s the point of imprisoning rely a corpse? It isn’t even a living being.”
He was very certain it wasn’t a living person, as it lacked any signs of life or vitality, sothing he could still discern.
“But when I was drawing the Yin Qi just now, the chains seed to shake violently…”
Could this be a living corpse?
Lu Xun’s mind was filled with myriad thoughts, but the current situation didn’t afford him any luxury to ponder over them.
This elite level ghost, after consuming all of its companions, not only leveled up but also seed to have acquired so special skills?
Now, it had less than 20% of its health left, looking like it was engulfed in black flas. Its Ghost Qi was incredibly ferocious and extrely unstable!
“This is just a dungeon for under level 30, is it really necessary to go this far?” Lu Xun grimaced, then continued to fully unleash [Pink Ink].
He was quickly contemplating a plan in his mind.
It was already on the verge of death, it would be quite a pity if he were to fail at this stage.
“I can actually give that move a try!” Lu Xun made up his mind.
The Five Elents give birth and restrain each other. The Ancient Five Elents Formation uses the principle of mutual genesis amongst the Five Elents to maximize the effect of one’s spiritual power!
But what if one were to observe mutual restraint amongst the Five Elents?
Just like when the Fire Elent Formation collides with the Water Elent Formation, it might trigger an explosion-like disrupt of spiritual power.
And if the Five Elents were to restrain one another, in layman’s terms, it might trigger an even bigger explosion!
Lu·I-will-blow-you-up·Xun decided to give it a try.
However, the space here wasn’t sufficient. He would probably be affected as well, and he didn’t know if [Pink Ink] could withstand it?
Besides giving this move a try, he didn’t have any other ans. Anyway, he would be teleported out when his life was in danger, so he didn’t need to worry.
Since he wouldn’t actually die, he could relentlessly risk his life.
Lu Xun started to reverse the Five Elents Formation, arranging the Five Elents Sword Qi in a restraining sequence.
This required a strong divine sense as support; the entire formation must be set up within an instant.
Even though Lu Xun had an enhanced spiritual power of 3, it still felt rather laborious.
Tiny beads of cold sweat began to appear on his nose and forehead. Veins bulged on his forehead and his temples throbbed.
He tried to keep his distance from the ghost as much as possible, then he roared in his mind, “Fire!”
The Reverse Ancient Five Elents Formation was assembled in an instant, the Five Elents counteracted each other, creating a turbulent outbreak of spiritual power.
Moreover, he didn’t just create one formation, but two!
The chaotic spiritual power resulted in an explosion!
Truthfully, Lu Xun, with his current display, didn’t appear as a typical sword cultivator at all. Instead of executing a sword array, he seed to be tossing a bomb!
The ghost monster was right in the center of the explosion, its health bar rapidly depleting.
Lu Xun was also affected by the blast. Despite the protection of Pink Ink, he was still thrown backward, set to collide with the high wall.
The energy flow within Pink Ink was getting weaker and weaker, and at the mont of its dissipation, a beam of white light enveloped Lu Xun and teleported him out.
When Lu Xun opened his eyes again, he found himself back at the starting point, with the sword sheath lying quietly there, waiting for him.
Lu Xun’s face was pale, and his internal spiritual power was almost completely depleted. Since his transmigration, this was the first ti he had felt so weakened.
Surprisingly, it felt sowhat wonderful!
He walked unstably towards the sword sheath and the storage ring and picked them up.
The black cord on the sword sheath gently stroked him, seemingly inquiring about his state.
“I’m fine, just a little weak, but no harm done.” Lu Xun smiled and responded.
With a “pop,” a green pearl flew out from the sword sheath.
A gentle force penetrated into Lu Xun’s body. Although it could not rapidly restore his spiritual power, it greatly alleviated the discomfort in his body.
“Having a personal healing mom around, feels pretty good.” Lu Xun thought to himself.
What concerned him now was whether that elite-level ghost monster had been defeated.
Had he cleared the challenge?
Lu Xun, holding the sword sheath, straightened his black robe.
Admittedly, he was in quite a ss towards the end, but fortunately, his precious luxury robe hadn’t been damaged.
“How did Ye Sui’an just finish his challenge and still looks as though nothing happened, without even a wrinkle on his clothes?”
“He must have changed into a new set!” Lu Xun speculated internally.
As he walked out of the Ghost’s Grief, Lin Chan and Mao Nanbei imdiately ca forward to greet him.
Ye Sui’an followed shortly behind, his face still adorned with an enthusiastic smile.
At this mont, Snake Elder’s slightly hoarse voice ca from a distance:
“Demon Sect, Lu Xun, ranks first, challenge cleared!”
The voice echoed throughout the Ghost’s Grief. The cold-faced disciples of Boundless Mountain made rounds of astonished exclamations while maintaining their poker faces!
The sight was rather comical, just imagine dozens of expressionless faces shouting in surprise.
A small wooden sign bearing Lu Xun’s na appeared out of nowhere, clattering on the table.
The stone-faced disciple from Boundless Mountain opened his mouth in surprise and quickly got hold of the wooden sign, hanging it at the very top of the high wall.
Lu Xun turned to look at Ye Sui’an. He thought there would be so emotional reactions like frustration, unwillingness, or resentnt. To his surprise, Ye Sui’an was smiling brilliantly, looking even more delighted than Lu Xun who had just got the first place!
“Did I break his brain when I pointed at his forehead that day?” Lu Xun wondered internally.
“Still, it seems that we managed to blow up the ghost monster in the end!” He was quite satisfied with the outco.
At that mont, several notification ssages popped up before his eyes.
Inside the Ghost’s Grief, at the last challenge, the elite level ghost monster had turned into ghost Qi and was ascending.
One after another, the black energy streams were absorbed by the corpse on the high platform without leaving a trace.
Upon closer inspection, one would notice the corpse under the cloak opening and then quickly closing its eyes.
It was as if it were disturbed by the sound of the explosion.
