Chapter 282 - Revelation

'Huf Huf'

In the minor ghost world, Henrick was killing the ambush ghosts and only stopped when he started breathing heavily.

'This one is definitely a rank 3 ambush ghost.'

As soon as he stopped to take a short breath one of the ambush ghosts rushed towards him from the crowd.

Its speed was top notch that Henrick was barely able to see the silhouette of that ambush ghost.

'Ancient fire surge.'

Since he didn't have time to use any other powerful skills, Henrick used a skill that takes no time to activate.

Moreover, it would be all over his body. So, Henrick was hoping to scare the ambush ghost away.

'Shussh'

'Kacha'

However, something happened that shocked Henrick for a moment.

'What the hell?'

Looking at the ashes which were flying away in the air, Henrick recalled what had just happened.

'So, my ancient fire surge is very effective against them. I was just wasting my time by spending more energy on these cowards.'

After recalling the scene in which a rank 3 ambush ghost was burnt to ashes just from the heatwave emitted from his body, Henrick came to a conclusion that his skill 'Ancient fire surge' is very effective against the ambush ghosts.

Actually, the thing was Henrick didn't expect to kill it much less burn it to a crisp with the 'Ancient fire surge'.

Until now, Henrick was only thinking that the skill 'Ancient fire surge' was used to increase the strength of the fire beasts.

'Ding,

The 'Ancient fire surge' releases a special heatwave that helps the fire beasts and has no effect on other beasts except for the dark element-type beasts. Moreover, the ambush ghosts don't like light or heat.  So, your fire attacks will be very effective against them.

Soon, the system notification explained to him why the 'Ancient fire surge' was very effective on the ambush ghosts.

"It looks like I just found the best method to kill these ambush ghosts."

As soon as he found out the use of the 'Ancient fire surge', Why would Henrick not be excited?

These ambush ghosts were annoying him for more than five hours and he was still unable to finish the third task from the trial.

'Since, I found a way to kill them. It will not be long until I complete my trial in this world.'

'Kacha'

As soon as he came to a conclusion, he took out more than a dozen bug cores from his inventory and crushed them.

'Ding,

Master's dantian is completely filled with pure internal fire energy.

Since his dantian was almost empty from fighting the ambush ghosts, he wanted to fill it back and at the same time, he wanted a small break. 

So that, he could go back to his top condition while fighting the ambush ghosts again.

Since almost all the ambush ghosts were just cowards, Henrick was not worried that they would make a move on him anytime soon.

'Show me the progress of my trial.'

While taking a small break, he wanted to see how many rank 3 beasts he killed from the earlier one hour fight.

So, he asked the system to show him the trial progress.

'Ding,

Trial progress:- 

1) Killed 4212/ 1000 rank 1 ambush ghosts.

2) Killed 839 / 100 rank 2 ambush ghosts.

3) Killed 6 / 10 rank 3 ambush ghosts.

4) Killed 0 / 1 rank 4 ambush ghost.

'Damn it. This is really starting to annoy me.'

Henrick cursed while looking at the trial progress in front of him because even though he fought for one hour, he was able to kill only a single rank 3 ambush ghost.

Moreover, that single rank 3 ambush ghost itself jumped onto him.

'So, for the last one hour, I basically did nothing...Damn it.'

Just thinking that no matter how hard he fought there was not much progress on the trial which made him very angry.

'Since you want it the hard way, I will give you one.'

Henrick was suppressing all the anger he had in his heart and muttered, 'I just have to wait a little longer and all these ambush ghosts will be burnt to crisp.'

Henrick wanted to finish the third task of the trial at this time; however, for that, he needed to take a little rest.

'Swoosh'

'Slash'

While resting, occasionally, there would be an ambush ghost sneaking an attack on him; however, they were just killed by Henrick with his gigantic demon blade.

'I guess, this is enough.'

After resting for 10 minutes, Henrick stretched his body for a moment and kept the gigantic demon blade away before revealing an evil smile on his face.

As soon as he got ready, he didn't attack the ambush ghosts instead, he sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.

'Let's see how this goes.'

Henrick retracted his senses and stopped focusing on his surroundings.

Currently, Henrick looked like a harmless cultivator who was deeply immersed in meditation.

All of a sudden, there was complete silence around Henrick as all the ambush ghosts were looking at Henrick with a look that was hard to explain because all the ambush ghosts were wearing a single piece of grey cloth.

Henrick didn't even know how they were able to attack him without ant eyes.

Nevertheless, Henrick was not studying the ambush ghosts to observe everything about it and only focused on killing them.

After 10 minutes,

'Swoosh'

All the ambush ghosts which were maintaining a distance of more than 50 meters from Henrick waited for 10 minutes before one of the ambush ghosts rushed towards him.

'Slash'

The ambush made a light cut on his hands before going to the other side.

Henrick didn't know about the attack because he had already retracted his senses to make the ambush ghosts attack him and it was working perfectly.

'Slash'

'Swoosh'

'Slash'

After seeing that there was no response from Henrick, other ambush ghosts also started attacking Henrick; however, they were taking time to attack Henrick and Henrick was letting them attack him.
