Chapter 223: Eradicating the Heretical Sect Base
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Don’t be fooled by the Wokou nation’s claim of controlling eight million Shikigami; it’s just hot air.
Indeed, there are that many ghostly creatures sealed within Mount Fuji, but they’re not at the beck and call of the Wokou; they only enslaved some of the less valuable ones, and the truly strong ones couldn’t care less about them.
To put it bluntly, the Shikigami refined by the Wokou nation through Yin-Yang Technique are mostly far weaker than the Ghost Generals and Ghost Kings formed by the Great Xia Empire.
So the Shikigami that Kameden excited with blood, despite its horrifying appearance, is actually somewhat hollow at the core.
After being frozen, the Shikigami struggled violently, and soon, cracks began to form on the icy surface. In just a few seconds, the ice shattered.
But what awaited this Shikigami was still a merciless beating by a large group of heroic vampires under the command of the Blood Race Ghost King.
The Level 100 three-eyed dog-headed Shikigami, face to face with a vampire onslaught, was still ferocious but found itself quickly turned around once the Demon Spider arrived.
The fight went from domineering to being overpowered; a host of vampires shifted from leading the attack to assisting under the command of the Blood Race Ghost King.
It became a matter of surrounding and seizing the opportunity to launch sneak attacks, ensuring the Shikigami had no chance of escape.
Watching the Demon Spider’s arms slash like knives, gradually reducing the Shikigami to fragments, Zi Liyuan’s brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Though the Shikigami was getting thoroughly beaten up, under the observation of the Eye of Death, its vitality had hardly diminished.
In other words, it had hardly taken any damage, not even a scratch.
This was quite strange because every time the Demon Spider attacked, floating numbers indicating blood loss would appear above the Shikigami’s head.
Despite countless strikes reducing the Shikigami’s health bar significantly, its life strength remained resilient, which was very odd indeed.
“Lao Tie, drag Kameden over here.”
If there was no understanding of the problem, then it’s straightforward, just ask the Shikigami’s owner.
Lao Tie grabbed Kameden by the hair and dragged him to Zi Liyuan, tossing him on the ground before a massive steel foot stepped onto Kameden’s chest, nearly crushing the life out of him.
“Tell me about this Shikigami, and if you don’t tell the truth, I can make you wish you were dead.”
For Zi Liyuan, a disdain for the Wokou existed both in his past and present lives, of course, with the exception of those devoted teachers who brought happiness to life.
“Damn it! Great Xia dog, you better release the messenger, or the Yin-Yang Holy Palace won’t let you off!”
Kameden glared with venomous eyes, cursing fiercely and issuing threats.
“Tsk tsk, weren’t you just begging for mercy on your knees? How come your attitude has changed now? Do you feel that death is certain, so you’ve given up on treatment? Honestly, I think you can still be saved.”
With a cruel smirk on his lips, Zi Liyuan didn’t say another word and stepped on Kameden’s broken arm, rhythmically grinding it back and forth.
“Ah! Damn it! Damn it! You bastard! I’ll talk, I’ll talk, woohoo…”
The cursing Kameden, after only a few seconds of being crushed, couldn’t take it anymore. In tears, he quickly begged for mercy.
“Then talk. You’d better spell out all the details about this Shikigami, clearly.”
Seeing the Shikigami’s health bar on the verge of being depleted, but observing only a minor decrease in its vitality through the Eye of Death, Zi Liyuan was not just curious but felt this might be a major secret of the Yin-Yang Holy Palace.
“The Shikigami is activated through the Bloodline Power; as long as the host continuously provides Bloodline Power to sustain it, the Shikigami will never perish.”
Kameden was quite forthcoming, beginning to reveal information about the Shikigami without any concealment.
What astonished Zi Liyuan the most was the fact that the Shikigami had signed a master-servant contract with the host, but the nature of this master and servant relationship left him speechless.
Because the Shikigami was the master, and the host was the servant!
That’s just preposterous!
“Damn, what kind of garbage is this Shikigami? With such strength, someone actually signed a master-servant contract with it, are they an idiot?”
A Fourth Order Level 100 Shikigami being thrashed by a Blood Race Ghost King along with a group of heroic vampires, almost ground down a rank.
This pathetic level of power, and yet someone was willing to enter a master-servant contract with it, making such trash a Shikigami their master; what a bunch of freaks the Japanese are!
“As long as the host doesn’t die, the Shikigami can continuously absorb and devour the Bloodline Power, and it will live forever, even continually evolving, possibly growing into a Lord Boss-level Shikigami.”
In the end, the Shikigami is just a little ghost nurtured within the host’s Spirit, continuously devouring the host’s Bloodline Power and the power of the Spirit, thereby advancing itself.
The stronger the bloodline of the person, the stronger the Shikigami they can gestate.
Kameden Yang had once merged some monster bloodlines, so his physique was abnormal, allowing him to gestate a Fourth Order Level 100 Peak Shikigami even when he was only at the Third Order.
However, due to his insufficient strength, he couldn’t leverage the power of the Shikigami to dramatically increase his own power.
“Why do you want to capture Number Two?”
“She can promote the evolution of others’ bloodlines, which holds great research value, so the organization wants to capture her and study the transformation of the Bloodline Power inside her.”
Bloodline Power is a force from the Sea of Realms, and now that a Second Order minion has gained control of this power, it has naturally attracted the covetous glances of others.
“This fairy, she has indeed attracted big trouble, but…”
Zi Liyuan didn’t complete his sentence, but a mad killing intent flickered in his eyes.
