118: Do they all like to self-destruct?
The Ghost Realm Painter wore tattered robes, just like an ancient scholar, but his face was ghastly.
He held a brush in his right hand and a book in his left.
By drawing the image of a ghost on the book, he could summon ghosts.
Like the Brahma Jade-Faced Civet, it belonged to the directional summoning type, but it was much weaker than the Brahma Jade-Faced Civet.
The wind-up time was too long; by the time the drawing was finished, the battle might already be over.
Therefore, its Aptitude only reached SS-rank, far inferior to the Brahma Jade-Faced Civet.
Because of this, Lü Kai needed two other Beasts to cooperate.
One was the Soul Devouring Demon, which devoured a large amount of Soul Power to enhance itself.
The other was the Necromancy Lich, which could summon countless undead skeletons.
These undead skeletons didn't need to be very powerful; they only needed to entangle Bai Yang's Three Beasts, giving the Ghost Realm Painter time to draw.
As for the Soul Devouring Demon, it would directly capture Bai Yang's Soul; once the Beast Tamer was killed, the other Three Beasts would collapse on their own.
However!
Bai Yang also had a Soul protection from King Jiang, which allowed him to avoid the Soul Devouring Demon's attack.
Then, he ordered his Beasts to launch a full-scale attack.
Especially the main head of the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent, which possessed Light Element attributes, giving it a certain suppressive effect on Lü Kai's Three Beasts.
Bai Yang, who had advanced to Level 4, Tier 4, actually suppressed Lü Kai for a time and repeatedly interrupted the Ghost Realm Painter's preparation process.
If Chen Fei were to face Bai Yang alone at this moment, it would also be somewhat troublesome.
Indeed, after reaching the King-rank, none of them are simple characters; they all like to hide their trump cards.
How could Chen Fei, hiding in the dark, let Bai Yang have his way? Not causing some trouble would be too unfair to him.
"Chi Yu, deal with that Seven-Headed Serpent."
Bai Yang and his Beasts were both enveloped in Soul protection, but the illusion was not.
Chi Yu secretly wove an illusion for the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent.
It happened to know the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent's nemesis—the Ubume.
The Ubume, with nine heads, also possessed multiple different attributes, reaching the Immortal Beast level, and could fly, perfectly countering the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent.
Even more coincidentally, the Ubume was precisely the existence invited by the Ghostly Dream Soul Fox Clan to Seal Chi Yu.
Chi Yu was intimately familiar with its appearance, aura, and oppressive power; even after a million years, it couldn't forget them.
As this illusion passed, the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent trembled all over.
Like a mouse seeing a cat, it dared not make a sound.
With the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent's pause, it also gave the Ghost Painting Scholar an opportunity.
In one fluid motion, he drew a Level 4, Tier 5 Paper Soul Guest, with SSS-rank Aptitude.
This made Bai Yang turn pale with fright.
The Paper Soul Guest was quite eerie, possessing no true physical body, but rather made of paper.
Its body exuded a decaying papery scent, like the whisper of death.
Countless small paper figures floated out from the Paper Soul Guest.
These small paper figures folded in the air, then formed combat-ready ghosts, Yao Beasts... This ability was not weaker than Little Gu's swarm.
Its advantage was that it didn't require incubation and could form quickly, but its numbers couldn't reach that of a swarm; each had its pros and cons.
The most ruthless thing was that these small paper figures were not afraid of fire.
Because they themselves emitted ghost fire, it was difficult to suppress them unless it was an exotic flame.
Coincidentally, hundreds of small paper figures eventually folded into the shape of an Ubume.
The Naga Seven-Headed Serpent, having just burst out of the illusion, was startled by the Ubume paper figure in front of it, thinking it was still in the illusion, and retreated three paces.
Bai Yang trembled with anger: "It's fake, that's fake, it's not a real Ubume! Go on, use all your Light Element and Ice Element skills to suppress them!"
He was anxious!
This was Lü Kai's inherent strength, but Bai Yang was not; the amplification of a Yao King was strong and long-lasting, but it couldn't withstand such torment.
However, by the time the Naga Seven-Headed Serpent reacted, it was already too late.
Besides the paper Ubume, the other paper figures folded into tiny bees, drilling into any opening and rapidly approaching Bai Yang and his Beasts.
Then, at the critical moment: "Explode!"
Bai Yang was exhausted!
Why did every single one of them like to use this kind of self-destructing attack?
He seriously suspected whether he had chosen the wrong Beasts and should have chosen Beasts similar to Little Gu or the Paper Soul Guest?
If there was a next life... The reality was, there were no more 'ifs'!
The self-destruction of the paper bees created a perfect opportunity for Lü Kai.
It was also at this time that the Soul protection expired.
Bai Yang, who was already disoriented from the explosions, didn't have time to use a second Soul protection before he was hit.
He didn't last long; Bai Yang's Soul was burned away by the ghost fire, dead beyond dead.
Only his Naga Seven-Headed Serpent remained alive, but it dared not approach Lü Kai and fled.
Lü Kai ignored it; his mission was to kill people, not Beasts.
Chen Fei also ignored it; he was very busy, recording their battle on his phone.
If anyone asked how Bai Yang died in the future.
Hehe... Lü Kai killed him!
At the same time, he always felt that Lü Kai was not simple; his Beasts and methods of action reminded him of that mysterious organization.
If it truly was that organization's doing, then this would be excellent material.
Making the Bai Family, who always avoided battle, go after that organization was also a good choice.
As the battle ended, Lü Kai picked up Bai Yang's spatial ring.
The moment it opened, a white light suddenly entered Lü Kai's body.
"That is... the Scaled Incense White Butterfly's [Powder Tracking]."
Chen Fei recognized the white light; many Families possessed certain tracking methods.
Clearly, the spatial ring was set so that if a second person touched it, they would be sprayed with the Scaled Incense White Butterfly's powder and then marked.
Even if this powder was washed off now, if they encountered a Scaled Incense White Butterfly in the future, they would still be recognized.
Thus, Lü Kai had now formed an enmity with the Bai Family.
This also reminded Chen Fei that not everyone's spatial ring could be casually touched; something unexpected might happen.
The moment the Paper Soul Guest disappeared, it was time for Chen Fei to act.
Under the Hidden Origin Art, Wu Yun had quietly approached, directly smashing the amplified World-Cleansing White Thunder onto Lü Kai's Ghost Realm Painter.
World-Cleansing White Thunder was meant to purify all evil spirits and ghosts in the world.
For Ghost System, Demon System, Necromancy System, and others, it was an absolute counter.
With one strike, the Ghost Realm Painter let out a terrifying and sharp scream.
Especially the brush and paper in the Ghost Realm Painter's hand were shattered by this attack, requiring a considerable amount of time to repair.
The Painter itself even had an arm severed by the World-Cleansing White Thunder.
If not for the surrounding undead skeletons blocking some of it, the consequences would have been even more severe.
A Ghost Realm Painter unable to draw lost its threat.
Just one strike!
It severely injured Lü Kai's strongest Ghost Realm Painter.
World-Cleansing White Thunder had rendered great service!
At this moment, Lü Kai panicked and chose to flee immediately.
How could Chen Fei let go of such a great opportunity...
