Smoke and dust rose.
A two-and-a-half-meter tall, black-furred zombie crawled out of the grave.
"Roar! Roar!"
The roar shook the surroundings.
The White Ghost hid behind the tall black zombie and said with a sinister smile, "Let me tell you, this is the King of Black Zombie, one of the Twin Ghosts of Black and White. Although he doesn't talk much, he's very strong. "
It turned out that this grave was not the White Ghost's grave, but the King of Black Zombie's corpse. No wonder the Yin energy was so thick.
Bai Xiaowen also realized that the White Ghost was up to no good when it asked him to pick the Ghost Wormwood personally. The Ghost Wormwood grew on the King of Black Zombie's hibernation ground. If Bai Xiaowen went there, it would be tantamount to suicide.
Bai Xiaowen used his insight and shared the King of Black Zombie's information with Li Shuyi.
[King of Black Zombie (Boss Level 7)]
[Race: Demon/Corpse-Devil Race]
[Attributes: STR 75, DEX 19, STR 53, WIL 14]
[Skill 1: Iron Skin: The King of Black Zombie's body has been baptized by the Yin energy essence of the underground veins. It has a body of iron and copper skin. The physical damage it receives is greatly reduced. The damage reduction ratio varies from 50% to 90%.]
[Skill 2: Earth-shaking Jump: The King of Black Zombie violently shakes the ground and jumps to a target area. After landing, there will be a shockwave. The nearest enemy will be stunned and the nearby enemies will have their movement speed reduced.]
[Skill 3: Corpse Poison Cloud: The King of Black Zombie will release corpse poison in a large area during battle. It will cause continuous poison damage to enemies in the area. This effect can be stacked.]
[Skill 4: Blood Drain: The King of Black Zombie captures a target, drains the target's blood essence and heals himself. If the target is successfully captured, they will not be able to move or use displacement skills.]
[Skill 5: Zombie Domination LV1: Increases the King of Black Zombie's HP by an additional 300 points. Reduces the duration of abnormal statuses and control effects by 30%.]
This time, the Insight Skill was much more effective. It was able to detect all the skills of this Level 7 Boss.
Two high ranking leaders! Moreover, it was the kind of demon leader that was rather difficult to deal with. This was the difficulty of an A-rank elite mission.
The difficulty of the missions was only a rough assessment. It was related to the way the mission was completed and whether or not there were friendly Spirit World characters participating. Generally speaking, the difficulty of an A-rank Elite Mission was between B-rank and C-rank Hero Missions. It was even slightly higher than S-rank Normal Missions.
"Leave the White Ghost to me. Shu Yi, you deal with the King of Black Zombie. You just have to be careful to avoid the Corpse Poison Cloud. The summoned creatures will help you block the other skills. Remember to attack from behind, "Bai Xiaowen said in the party channel.
Li Shuyi nodded. Together with the Wrath Claw, Fatty, Shadow Assassin, and Vampire Keats, they charged at the King of Black Zombie.
After 30 seconds of mind control, Bai Xiaowen regained control of the skeletal sword shieldsman that had just been mind-controlled by the White Ghost. He ordered it to pick up its iron sword and join the battle against the King of Black Zombie.
After Bai Xiaowen and the Undead Warlock dealt with the White Ghost.
The bullets fired by the Desert Eagle were physical attacks. They couldn't hit the incorporeal White Ghost at all. Bai Xiaowen put away his gun and used his fire combat skills to help the Undead Warlock deal with the White Ghost.
On the other side, although the King of Black Zombie was very strong, his slow speed was his weakness. Most of the attacks were dodged. The few attacks that were difficult to dodge were eaten by Fatty, the Wrath Claw, and the other summoned creatures.
Li Shuyi attacked from behind. He found that the King of Black Zombie's spine was no longer a weakness. It also had a 50% damage reduction. However, this was the weakest part of the spine. Li Shuyi could only endure the damage reduction attacks. − 7, − 8, and other damage numbers kept popping up from the King of Black Zombie's body.
In any case, the King of Black Zombie was being held back.
The White Ghoul's HP dropped rapidly after it was hit by two Lightning Strike Daoist Spells and the Dark Brush Flame combo. She saw the King of Black Zombie being held back and roared angrily.
The King of Black Zombie's eyes glowed red. With a muffled roar, his body trembled. Clouds of light brown poisonous fog quickly spread out from his body.
Li Shuyi hurriedly ran out of the range of the zombie poison cloud. The other summoned creatures also made way for him. Because they had dodged in time, they only had one layer of zombie poison on them. They would lose 10 HP every three seconds. However, the duration of this [Corpse Poison] effect was actually 30 seconds!
A layer of Corpse Poison meant 100 damage to his HP! What was more terrifying was that the zombie poison's effects could be stacked. If the effects were stacked three times and there was no antidote, they would be poisoned to death.
The King of Black Zombie's skill was very domineering.
With this skill, the King of Black Zombie dispersed the surrounding attackers. Its back bent slightly, and its body shot into the sky like a cannonball. It pounced toward the battle behind Bai Xiaowen and the White Ghost.
Combat skill — Earthquake Jump!
Having detected this skill, Bai Xiaowen naturally had a way to deal with it. When the King of Black Zombie was charging up, he and the Undead Devil Arcane Master had already split up. The moment the King of Black Zombie landed, Bai Xiaowen directly sent a Skeleton Swordsman over.
The target closest to the King of Black Zombie would be stunned! All targets within range would have their speed reduced. That was the mechanism of Earth-shaking Jump.
The Skeleton Swordsman was stunned without any suspense. However, Bai Xiaowen and the Undead Devil Arcane Master were able to escape the stun effect.
When the Black Zombie King landed on the ground, it was as if the entire Ghost Reef had been shaken. With a swipe of its claw, the Black Zombie King grabbed the neck of the stunned Skeleton Sword Shield Warrior. With a cracking sound, the Black Zombie King's neck was crushed, and the Flame of Soul extinguished. Its skull fell to the ground and rolled.
Seventy-five points of Strength was no joke. If one was hit, they would either die or be crippled.
However, while the King of Black Zombie and the White Ghost were fighting with Bai Xiaowen and the others, the Ming Army's bodyguards who had come with them did not stay idle. They hurriedly sneaked over to the King of Black Zombie's cracked grave to pick the Ghost Wormwood. Some of them also released Zhang Ting and the others who were tied up.
"Spiritual Master, we have the Ghost Wormwood. We can go now!" a Ming Army's bodyguard whispered.
At this moment, the White Ghost was hiding behind the King of Black Zombie. Bai Xiaowen's Dark Whisk flames were all blocked by the King of Black Zombie. Bai Xiaowen could only take out his Desert Eagle again and steadily shoot at the King of Black Zombie. At the same time, he said, "You guys go first. I have to eliminate these two demons!"
A group of Ming Army's bodyguards showed reverence. They bowed to Bai Xiaowen and quietly retreated.
However, before they could leave, black lines slithered toward them like spiritual snakes. They were the seaweed that looked like a woman's long hair! Some of the Ming Army's bodyguards came into contact with the seaweed. Their ankles were immediately wrapped tightly and they could not move at all.
What was more terrifying was that the seaweed would slowly extend upward and wrap around the bodyguards' necks. Then, it would tighten and tighten, trying to strangle them to death!
The remaining bodyguards shouted and quickly cut the seaweed with their swords. They saved the bodyguards who were rushing at the front and retreated awkwardly.
Other than the large wasteland of the Ghost Reef Main Island that had no seaweed, the path around the Ghost Reef and the only way back to the small boat was covered with the black seaweed. The Ming Army's bodyguards could not move forward at all.
Bai Xiaowen understood that this seaweed should be the punishment for completing the mission by trickery! If an Awakened who was proficient in stealth took advantage of the King of Black Zombie and the White Ghost's absence to steal the Ghost Wormwood, wouldn't they be able to complete this A-rank elite mission without having to fight at all and obtain a handsome reward?
Of course, the rules of the Spiritual Realm would not allow such trickery to happen. There were two ways to solve this problem. The first was to kill the White Ghost and leave openly. The second was to use some special items, such as a temporary flying device, to avoid the entanglement of the seaweed and escape back to the beach. Of course, the value of a flying device was needless to say. At the Awakened stage, it was quite rare.
The White Ghost, who was controlling all of this, smiled proudly and said, "All of you stay! You are all my blood food. No one can leave! "
The King of Black Zombie growled, "Blood food … me!"
The White Ghost shrugged and said, "Fine, I'll give you half … Aiya!"
With a thunderous boom, the Necromancer raised his hand and struck the White Ghost with lightning again. The White Ghost's HP fell by another 100 points!
Fatty Suture shot out his iron chain and stabbed the King of Black Zombie's leg. He exerted force and pulled!
The King of Black Zombie reached out and grabbed the iron chain. His enormous strength resisted Fatty's pulling force.
With Fatty's strength, of course, it was impossible for him to pull the 75 points of Strength King of Black Zombie. However, Bai Xiaowen did the opposite. He let Fatty use the enormous pulling force to fly into the air and crash into the King of Black Zombie!
While the King of Black Zombie's vision was blocked by Fatty, Bai Xiaowen bent down and rushed past the King of Black Zombie. After rushing towards the White Ghost, Bai Xiaowen spun his legs and soared into the sky like a propeller. His hands were wrapped in crimson flames and wrapped around the White Ghost. Together, they flew into the air.
Grass Sect Ancient Martial Art – Ghost Burn!
The White Ghost's HP fell below 300 points.
It was shocked and angry. After landing, it opened its mouth and the air around it rippled violently!
Bai Xiaowen, who was closest to the White Ghost, felt a buzzing sound in his ears and a sharp pain in his head. He was severely slowed!
The transparent air ripples spread rapidly. Fatty Suture, the Wrath Claw … everything within a 25-meter radius of the White Ghost was affected by its shriek. Apart from Bai Xiaowen and the Necromancer, everyone else was stunned.
Spirit Realm Rule Notification:
"The White Ghost's skill, Ten Thousand Ghost Shriek, has been activated. Targets with less than 30 Spirit will be stunned. Targets with less than 30 Spirit will be severely slowed."
After the White Ghost roared, its body became a little weak. It shook its body and its originally illusory body became solid. Slender black nails extended from the tips of its two hands and scratched at Bai Xiaowen!
Spirit Realm Rule Notification:
"The White Ghost's [Illusory Form] has ended. It has transformed into [Solid Form]!"
"The White Ghost has lost the skills [Mind Control] and [Ten Thousand Ghost Shriek]."
"The White Ghost has gained the skills [Ghost Claw] and [Heart Stealing Strike]!"
After transforming into its solid form, the White Ghost smiled sinisterly. It grabbed Bai Xiaowen's shoulder with one hand, and a bloody light suddenly appeared on its other hand. It slowly clawed at Bai Xiaowen's heart.
The King of Black Zombie also took advantage of the fact that everyone was stunned by the [Ten Thousand Ghost Shriek] to use [Corpse Poison Cloud] again. At the same time, it threw a punch! Its main target was Li Shuyi!
Bai Xiaowen was severely slowed, and Li Shuyi was stunned! Both of them were exposed to the Boss' attacks.
Li Shuyi hurriedly used [Green Lotus Seed (Mature)] to try and dispel the Boss's stun, but it failed. Her base priority was too low to dispel the [Ten Thousand Ghost Shriek]'s stun.
At the critical moment, the Necromancer raised his hand and used [Yellow Sky].
A gentle golden light sprinkled down, and Li Shuyi's body became lighter. She was no longer stunned, and her HP was also slightly restored! She hurriedly retreated, dodging the Dark Zombie King's fist. At the same time, she ran out of the range of the corpse poison cloud. She stuffed a bun into her mouth and drank a bottle of [Advanced HP Potion], finally recovering her HP.
The White Ghost's [Heart Stealing Strike] also failed to hit Bai Xiaowen. A skeleton sword-wielding shield appeared in front of Bai Xiaowen and took the hit in place of Bai Xiaowen.
This skill was very terrifying. The White Ghost would dig out the victim's heart and crush it, triggering the Judgement of Instant Death!
It was important to note that "instant death" and "instant death" were two different concepts.
Instant death meant that the target's HP was instantly reduced to zero. However, there were some skills or items that could be used to avoid instant death, such as [Soul Link], [Near Death Instinct], [Scorching Defender], and so on. By the way, Bai Xiaowen's [Life Sharing] was also one of the skills that could be used to avoid instant death.
As for "Instant Death", it was a skill that ignored the target's HP and directly killed the target. If Bai Xiaowen was hit and passed the Judgement of Instant Death, it would not trigger [Life Sharing], and it would die immediately. The Wrath Claw, which had [Life Sharing] with Bai Xiaowen, would not lose any HP.
Of course, as Bai Xiaowen's summoned creature, the Wrath Claw would also die, but the cause of death had nothing to do with [Life Sharing].
Instant death skills were indeed very powerful, but they were not invincible. First of all, the activation requirements were quite strict, and the target had to pass the Judgement of Instant Death before it would take effect. For example, the White Ghost's [Heart Stealing Strike] was only effective against certain humanoid creatures, beasts, and dragons. If the target did not rely on the heart to survive, or did not even have a heart, then the skill would not take effect.
For example, the Skeletal Shieldbearer that Bai Xiaowen used to block the skill received the [Heart Stealing Strike], but it looked at the White Ghost with a confused expression. The White Ghost's claws dug into the Skeletal Shieldbearer's sternum, but nothing came out …
There were also some skills or items that could be used to counter the Instant Death effect, such as [Seed of Resurrection], [Soul Furnace], and so on.
Bai Xiaowen realized that the White Ghost had finally transformed from an incorporeal form into a physical form! In other words, physical attacks were effective against it!
