Chapter 495: Fire Infusion
Ling Zhan had roughly figured out the strength of the Blinding Ghost in front of him.
Really, not just a little weak.
At least in terms of its raw attributes, it didn’t display the solid power expected of an 87-level Earth Ghost General.
The Blinding Ghost had only reached the rank of Earth Ghost General because of its life-saving eye abilities and its unpredictable talents.
Now that he had figured that out.
For Ling Zhan, it became much easier to deal with.
Over a hundred eyes meant over a hundred lives.
And each time it revived, it had a period of invulnerability.
If other special squad members faced it, they wouldn’t just find it hard to kill but might even be counterattacked and killed by it.
After all, with over a hundred eyes, you’d never know what talents the Blinding Ghost might use.
In such unpredictability...
Most people would easily fall into its traps and die.
But Ling Zhan didn’t have to worry about any of that.
He still had the god-level item "Substitute Strawman" from the system’s early rewards.
It allowed him to revive at a safe location after death, without losing any levels or experience.
With this item, Ling Zhan could escape any situation, even when faced with a hundred-level powerhouse.
With the Blinding Ghost’s current talents, it really had no way of harming Ling Zhan, whose skill levels were all at least A+.
Plus, with his various other talents.
The Blinding Ghost had no chance of counterattacking Ling Zhan.
The surrounding space was entirely locked down by the S-level talent "Space Domination."
Ling Zhan walked forward with his sword in hand, his expression cold and indifferent.
The Blinding Ghost desperately wanted to shout, "Don’t come any closer!"
But it knew well that this human man had already set his heart on killing it!
The problem was its greedy, cowardly mind was racing, trying to think of any talent that could help it escape this situation.
Or maybe hoping that one of the Sky Ghost Generals in the sky above would notice and come to its rescue.
Even though the sky was full of terrifying explosions, no Sky Ghost General appeared.
Ling Zhan took one step forward, instantly appearing in front of the Blinding Ghost. His sword, swift and precise, slashed towards its head!
The Blinding Ghost grunted, trying desperately to dodge the incoming strike!
It slammed into the spatial barrier!
The space was locked!!
Under its grim gaze, the sword sliced down, brutally cleaving its head in half!
With the S-level skill "Sunday" infused, the sword cut through the Blinding Ghost’s healing talents, completely negating them!
Simultaneously, deadly poison spread rapidly through every inch of its body from the wound!
In its despair, another life was forcibly snuffed out!
As another life was lost, the Blinding Ghost’s body suddenly glowed, signaling its revival and entering an invincible, untouchable state.
Used to pursuing speed and efficiency, Ling Zhan frowned as he swung his sword.
He couldn’t possibly spend time slicing away at every single one of its lives .
That would be exhausting.
And incredibly boring.
An idea flashed through Ling Zhan’s mind.
What if he compressed the space around the Blinding Ghost into a confined area, then continuously filled it with fire? Wouldn’t that work?
Not only could it be burned to death the moment it revived, but with the "Sunday" skill, all of the Blinding Ghost’s healing, amplifying, dispelling, and purifying talents would be completely suppressed.
Nor could it avoid the flames.
The plan was quite viable.
Without any hesitation.
Ling Zhan immediately reached out toward the space around the Blinding Ghost, clenching his fist!
The Blinding Ghost watched in horror as the space around it began to compress and was isolated into a small, confined area.
It couldn’t let this human’s plan succeed!
Otherwise, it really would be burned to death!
It let out a screech and plucked out more than ten eyes from its arms, swallowing them all at once!
As it devoured the eyes, Ling Zhan could clearly sense that the Blinding Ghost’s aura had strengthened immensely!
Its previously frail, hunched figure now grew strong muscles.
Even its small stature swelled, becoming much more robust!!
With its newfound strength and increased physique, the Blinding Ghost charged with immense power toward the spatial barrier!
As long as it could escape.
It swore it would alert the Sky Ghost Generals in Takamagahara to the presence of this human brat!
They absolutely had to kill this incredibly powerful human before he could grow any further!
He would become far too dangerous!
He was only level 65 now!
And yet, he had already completely suppressed an Earth Ghost General like it!
If this human reached level 100, his power would be unimaginable!!
Despite a collision powerful enough to severely injure a level-75 third-tier expert, the spatial barrier remained completely intact.
Just as the Blinding Ghost prepared to swallow more eyes...
Divine flames suddenly flooded the confined space.
With its sensitivity to pain, the Blinding Ghost let out horrific screams as the flames, capable of burning even souls, engulfed it!
Another life was snuffed out in the sea of fire.
Upon its revival, the Blinding Ghost found that the flames were still burning intensely within the space!!
As soon as its invulnerability wore off, it frantically activated another life-saving invincibility talent, lasting for 10 more seconds!
Once again, it lost another eye!!
In just a few dozen seconds.
The Blinding Ghost was down to only 20 or 30 eyes left.
Zhou Xue’er, having defeated the Ghost Slave guards and completely deactivated the city’s control center, hurried back with her team to provide support.
