2022

The Ghost King's selection was a tradition of the City of Fear that had existed for many years. This tradition had a strong requirement, which was that it had to be one on one. No matter how powerful the Ghost King's subordinates were, the Ghost King had to face the challenger alone.

Therefore, if he left Xu Taiping alone, then tomorrow, if Xu Taiping really wanted to challenge the Spirit King, the Ghost King would have to accept the challenge alone. And if the Spirit King wanted to kill Xu Taiping today, he could definitely send all of his Ghost Generals with him.

If this was the case, the more they fought the less of a situation, even if the challenger was stronger than the Spirit King, unless the challenger was much stronger, it was impossible to defeat the Spirit King and his subordinates.

Thus, when the Spirit King suggested for everyone to work together to deal with Xu Taiping, everyone chose to agree.

Fighting more often might be disgraceful, but in the City of Fear, this was definitely possible. No one would look down on them. As long as they could kill the enemy, they could use any means they wanted!

"Number 3, number 8, go out and find some people. After finding their positions, come back and report on them." The others, wait here. " The Spirit King said.

"Yes sir!" Number Eight nodded, and together with Number Three, they walked out of the Ghost Temple.

The Spirit King stood up, and turned around to walk to the side.

Next to the Ghost Temple was the staircase.

The Ghost King walked into the staircase and started walking down the stairs.

He first arrived at the first layer, then passed through the second layer and entered the second layer.

There were a total of nine floors.

The staircase went directly through every floor, and every floor had no door, just a platform. You could go directly from the staircase to the floor you wanted to go to, but in the Ghost Temple there was a strict rule that every Ghost General could only go to a floor that matched their status and could not be passed.

The Spirit King kept walking down until he reached the ninth floor.

The underground nine floors were located tens of meters below the ground, and the temperature here was much higher than above.

There was no staircase here.

The Spirit King walked down the stairs. In front of him, a group of people were busy.

These people were wearing white gowns, and there were many apparatus laid out on the ground. There was even a bed with a person who was tied to it, stripped naked.

The Spirit King walked to the side of a man in a white coat.

The man took off his mask and revealed his face.

This person was none other than the creator of the world, the leader Lin Sanjun. The man lying on the bed with his body locked up was none other than his father, Duanmu Huanghun, whom he had been searching for for for a long time, Duanmu Huanghun.

Duanmu Zhi's eyes were closed, but he had already fallen into a coma.

The Spirit King frowned and walked in front of Lin Sanjun.

"You, how's the progress?" The Spirit King asked.

"We've basically figured out what the ghost is

Simply put, this place will give birth to some very pure energy bodies. These energy bodies are what you call ghosts, and although they can't be seen or touched, they will actually exist. Why is it that these energy bodies only appear every night? This has to do with the rotation of the Earth. Although I still don't understand why this energy is gathered within the Third Ring, that doesn't stop me from using this energy body. Look at this receiving device … " "This is the energy collector that we are researching. Through this, we can continuously pour the energy produced here into our equipment, and in order to prevent the energy from being contaminated, we can choose to directly inject it into our evolution drug. This energy collector is the catalyst to boost our evolution drug's medicinal properties, and it also catalyzed some unexpected changes, so we will be experimenting on it soon, you can take a look at it."

"I have no interest in these so-called experiments. I just want to know, are the side effects of your so-called evolution potions eliminated?" The Spirit King frowned and asked.

"This can only be determined after an experiment." Lin Sanjun said.

"I will at most give you three more days. Within three days, I will not be able to get what I want. The people who created this world will get the hell out of the City of Fear." The Spirit King said.

"You don't have a very good temper." Lin Sanjun laughed.

"Actually, I don't believe in this so-called evolution potion at all. This thing is a chemical, and it has a lot of side effects. "If it weren't for Zhao Qingshan, I would never have let you reach the ninth floor. So, don't try to challenge my patience, after three days, after three days, I want the perfect evolution drug. If you don't have it, then scram!" The Spirit King said.

"Your temper is too different from Zhao Qingshan's. I really can't believe that you two are actually juniors. Oh, I forgot. I heard from Zhao Qingshan that you were expelled from my sect, right? " Lin Sanjun said.

The Spirit King looked coldly at Lin Sanjun and said, "One day, I will let that damned old man know that expelling me from the sect was the biggest mistake he had ever committed in his life."

"If we really can produce the perfect evolution potion, then …" Your wish will definitely come true! " Lin Sanjun said.

"Leader, you can begin!" A person walked over from the side and said to Lin Sanjun.

"Alright, let's begin then!" Lin Sanjun nodded his head, then he pressed his hand on the radar like object.

A strange sound came from the radar as the lights on it turned on.

"We are beginning to collect energy bodies. It is currently night time and there are not many energy bodies. However, with this device, we can gather the greatest amount of energy bodies and infuse them into the evolution medicine." Lin Sanjun said.

"Don't ruin my place." The Spirit King said.

"No, this kind of energy body is harmless." "The founder of the City of Fear really knows how to find a place, he actually found a vein like this, there aren't many in the entire world that can find it. Furthermore, the most miraculous thing is that the layout of the city seems to contain some of the essence of the Chinese array, and the entire layout of the city just happens to cover the entire meridian point, making it so that the energy produced by the meridian point doesn't leak out, and ultimately forming a beneficial state for the human body."

The Ghost King crossed his arms and looked at Duanmu Ci lying on the bed.

Strands of tubes were stuck into Duanmu Ci's body. At the end of these tubes were vials of blue coloured potions. Inside the vials were metal vials. The wires behind these metal vials were connected to the radar.

Suddenly, bubbles appeared on the surface of the metal tube, and the blue coloured potion began to boil.

A group of people wearing white coats stood in front of the instruments, analyzing the numbers on it.

"Begin injection." Lin Sanjun suddenly said.

Soon after, the blue colored potion began to enter the tube, and through the tube, into Duanmu Ci's body.

Duanmu Huanghun's body suddenly began to violently pull out. However, because Duanmu Huanghun's entire body was tied up, despite the fact that he was pulling out, he was still tightly pinned to the bed.

Compared to you, the people in the City of Fear are like saints. Not only do you kill people, you torture people. Many times, we choose to let one of you die while you make life worse than death. The Spirit King said.

"If you don't want to live, you want to die. "However, today, our experimental body's tolerance has reached its limit. If we are not able to obtain satisfactory results, there will be no need for it to continue existing." Lin Sanjun said.

"Letting him die should be a relief to him." The Spirit King said.

"We also want to be free, but... He won't allow it. " Lin Sanjun said with a smile.

At this moment, night descended.

Xu Taiping led Mikaleira and Cavendish into the lighted house.

On the floor of the house, a fire was blazing.

A man sat by the fire.

The so-called lights were actually just flames.

The room was very warm.

On top of the bonfire, an arm was being roasted. One could tell that this was a man's arm, and it was very thick.

Seeing someone coming in, the man sitting by the fire frowned.

"Scram!" The man said.

Xu Taiping smiled, walking towards the man as he said, "It's a little cold outside, we have to spend the night here, and as you can see, we have a woman by our side, we can't let her be frozen, so, this place of yours is already taken over by me, I don't want to kill anyone, although you look like someone who deserves to be killed, but it's also good to be peaceful. Of course, if you think that I'm a very easy person to deal with because of my kindness, then you are completely wrong."

The man frowned. He picked up a knife and stood up.

"The food for the winter is not ready yet. Moreover, there is still a woman missing. Since you guys aren't coming back alive, then I will send you to your deaths." As the man spoke, he rushed towards Xu Taiping.

A few seconds later.

Putong.

A lifeless body fell face first onto the ground.

"Don't you think it's better to live on? I have to die. " Xu Taiping shook his head, walked over to the fire and threw it aside.

"We'll spend the night here. There's also firewood, enough for us to burn for the whole night. Cavendish, take out the food in your bag, you're hungry." Xu Taiping said.

"En!" Karwendish nodded, opened his bag, and took out all the food.

Michael walked over to Xu Taiping and sat down next to him.

"Is it cold?" Xu Taiping asked.

"A little." Mikaleira nodded.

Xu Taiping took off his clothes and draped them over Michael.

"Thank you!" Mi Jia Lie La said emotionally.

Xu Taiping smiled, but didn't say anything.

I thought I would only be sweeping one or two tombs today, but I didn't expect to be sweeping five of them, and each tomb is located deep in the mountains and forests, and there are many different tombs, so I was too tired and forgot about what I had said about updating at noon. I'm really sorry, I knew that the book review area has already started cursing, but if I don't go, then just curse ~

Besides, it's even more impossible for me to add it today. There was only one chapter left in the manuscript. Tomorrow, there would be five more chapters. Today, he was too tired to write anymore. Tomorrow, he would release two chapters first. The other three chapters could be released in the afternoon. Finally, my welfare — January 1st to 5th, 5 o'clock every day. I apologize, but you are still satisfied. If you are, please praise me in the book review section. [Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter]
