Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!

Chapter 1185 - 926: Lantian Domain Ruins · Hundred Ghosts Lair (Part 3)

Ling Di instinctively shrunk his neck and obediently squatted by his master’s side, sneaking a glance and thinking how his master had changed his attire and suddenly become so dignified? This must be his true form, but it’s unknown which Celestial God he is.

[Hundred Ghost Cavern Trial has begun, mortals beware of the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts!]

"Buzz~"

Accompanied by a low hum, the darkness before them drew back like a curtain, and a wandering spirit ghost appeared.

[Eerie Ghost: Low-level creature, unlike other contaminated beings, Ghost Species are inherently non-corporeal, with eerie aura fused with Yin Energy. After purification, its form will completely dissipate. Killing one grants a small amount of experience.]

It seemed to have just woken up, not fully alert yet when an overwhelming aura from Jiang Yuan struck it, causing the ghost to retreat, its sinister ghostly aura dimmed considerably.

"Nether, Nether Monarch, spare me!" The ghost knelt with a thud, trembling, "I am a wandering spirit trapped here, unable to leave for the Netherworld. Please do not blame me, Nether Monarch."

Old Dog’s eyes instantly widened—Nether Monarch? Master of the Netherworld?!

My master is the true Nether Monarch?!

"Ling Di, I’ll help suppress some Yin Energy, but the rest is up to you." Jiang Yuan ignored the contaminated ghost, raising his chin as a signal, "Finish it quickly, Yun Shu and others are still waiting."

"Okay! Woof!" It shook its ears, temporarily setting aside the shock and confusion, and began to utilize the Great Wilderness Heart Method.

Little pup’s body emitted a faint glow, then rushed toward the ghost, which was trembling and dared not move, frightened by Jiang Yuan.

Only then did Jiang Yuan realize the passive skills quickly completed by the system were, in fact, a form of Purification Technique when executed by a real cultivator!

Being already a Tribulation Crossing Realm Demon Cultivator, supported by vast Spiritual Power within, the cultivation of Purification Technique was brief yet progressed rapidly.

The glow enveloping it not only resisted the ghost’s contamination but also gradually permeated to purify the tainted aura.

Wisps of faint gray smoke drifted from the ghost, while Ling Di glared fiercely, cautiously ensuring it didn’t escape from his purification range.

"The Nether Monarch descends but didn’t bring ghost generals or Yin Messengers, just this little dog, what is the intention?" The ghost was involuntarily trembling from the terrifying oppression, sensing its power being gradually devoured, too frightened to rebel lest the Nether Monarch’s wrath make it vanish.

But if it doesn’t resist, being entangled by this little pup eventually spells certain death.

"Fight to the death; if I die, so be it!" After waiting for a moment, the ghost finally reached an unbearable point and let out a Ghost Roar sonic attack.

The attack wasn’t very powerful, but Ling Di perceived the opponent’s strike instantly, almost using magic to block it.

Thankfully, it remembered and controlled its instinctive reaction, forcibly lowering its raised paw, taking the attack solidly, and continued to crazily operate the Heart Method, striving to swiftly eliminate the first ghost.

[Eerie Ghost -1, Experience +10]

As time slowly passed, after grinding for three minutes, the first monster was finally defeated, and as the system notification appeared, a small halo descended upon Ling Di, making the faint glow seemingly brighter.

Another ghost shadow floated out, and the victorious Old Dog immediately barked and leaped over, sensing that as the eerie ghost was completely purified, a mysterious power reinforced him!

Ling Di suddenly realized—the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog can resist evil, his own power wasn’t weak but the Purification Technique was the biggest shortcoming. This trial is precisely intended for Dog Master to continually enhance the purification method until he can fulfill the duties of the Divine Beast Heaven Dog!
