The Game with Fairies - Chapter 407

Chapter 407: Xiao Yecao’s True Name

“Elder Brother, these three monsters are so tough!”

In the midst of the mist, Xiao Yecao felt exhausted and couldn’t help but shout.

Taking advantage of the monsters’ transformation, she and Elder Brother launched a fierce attack like a storm, attempting to completely annihilate the three monsters.

But these transformed monsters were powerful and difficult to deal with.

Their flesh seemed inexhaustible, capable of regenerating endlessly.

No matter how many arms were severed or heads torn apart, the three monsters remained unscathed.

Moreover, as more arms and heads were cut off, chunks of pale, cold flesh drifted in the mist, and the sinister deathly aura within the mist grew thicker.

The three monsters, bathed in this aura, seemed to be nourished by it, growing stronger and more aggressive, making their attacks increasingly difficult to withstand.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yecao and Li Muyang were weakened by the deathly aura, their strength continuously fading.

As their power waned and the monsters’ grew, the two quickly found themselves at a disadvantage.

Xiao Yecao had traveled the world and was well-versed in many things.

But today was the first time she had encountered such bizarre and evil creatures that grew stronger the more they were attacked!

Once again, she felt the urge to flee, wanting to escape with her Elder Brother.

“Elder Brother, let’s just leave…”

Xiao Yecao was always concerned about Elder Brother’s safety and wanted to flee with him.

But Li Muyang stopped her, saying sternly, “We can’t retreat! If we do, we will surely die!”

This was a lesson Li Muyang had learned from his many failures.

Having failed seven times after entering the second phase, he had roughly figured out the trick to clear the stage.

Facing these three Ghost Fiend Kings, one must hold on to the very end.

Not to mention fleeing, even slowing down the frequency of attacks would quickly give them an opportunity to strike and kill.

These three monsters were indeed strange; the more they were harmed, the stronger their attacks became.

However, unlike Xiao Yecao’s panic, Li Muyang could see the health bars.

He clearly saw that as he continued to harm the three monsters, their health bars visibly decreased rapidly.

Although they seemed to be unharmed and growing stronger… appearances can be deceiving, but health bars do not lie!

When the health bar is empty, it’s empty!

As long as he could hold on until their health bars were completely depleted, Li Muyang did not believe the three monsters could continue to fight.

“Keep holding on!”

Li Muyang activated his skill, and countless pitch-black Scaly Soul Worms spat out foul-smelling venom, splashing it onto the three monsters in the mist.

The venom of the Scaly Soul Worms had a strong corrosive effect, and the monsters howled in pain as their flesh rapidly dissolved, emitting a pungent stench.

After this round of attacks, the exhausted Scaly Soul Worms swarmed back to Li Muyang, quickly retreating under his tattered, semi-transparent robe to rest.

All 13 of Li Muyang’s Scaly Soul Worm-related skills entered cooldown.

Seeing her Elder Brother fight so valiantly, Xiao Yecao also gritted her teeth and increased the intensity of her attacks, refusing to retreat even when wounded by the monsters.

Her appearance was somewhat disheveled, with wounds of varying depths across her body.

But she still heeded her Elder Brother’s words and refused to retreat.

The battle in the mist grew more intense, with flesh flying everywhere and the foul stench and dense aura of death swirling around.

Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao stood firm against the attacks of the three Ghost Fiend Kings, refusing to give ground and determined not to take a single step back.

Finally, the twisted flesh of the three Ghost Fiend Kings screamed as their health bars were completely depleted.

And the moment their health bars emptied, the Ghost Fiend Kings’ storm-like attacks finally ceased.

But Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao in the mist did not relax; instead, their expressions became even more solemn and tense.

For after the three monsters’ health bars were emptied, they underwent another transformation!

From within the monsters, countless wailing souls of the damned could be heard.

The powerful and sinister Ghost Fiend Kings revealed their true nature at this moment.

—These three monsters were actually formed from the twisted aggregation of countless damned souls!

These were not natural creatures but monsters forcibly created by a powerful deity using numerous damned souls!

In Li Muyang’s mind, the CG image of the netherworld appeared.

Cruel and tyrannical deities, wielding whips to enslave endless souls.

These Ghost Fiend Kings were killing machines created by the deities of the netherworld.

Now, as the Ghost Fiend Kings collapsed, countless damned souls tried to break free and escape to the outside world.

However, the giant archway behind the Ghost Fiend Kings, which had been calm for a long time, suddenly began to spin, emitting a dazzling green light.

A ghastly green beam shot out from the vortex of time and space, piercing through the three Ghost Fiend Kings.

The wailing souls inside the monsters cried out in despair, burning rapidly and unable to break free.

As the damned souls burned, a massive and burly divine shadow descended within the mist.

A deity from the netherworld had come, burning these souls to forcibly descend into the world of mist.

In Li Muyang’s vision, a dark red health bar appeared.

【Earth Spirit King】

That was the opponent’s title.

Li Muyang’s heart chilled, and Xiao Yecao’s expression was one of shock.

“Are you the true culprit behind this catastrophe?”

She had not expected that her and Elder Brother’s fierce battle would draw out such a terrifying existence.

The opponent had merely descended in incarnation, yet its presence already surpassed that of an immortal like her.

Moreover, it is the mastermind behind the Ghost Fiend King, clearly the true culprit behind the catastrophe!

It was the one who ordered the Ghost Fiend King to kill people everywhere!

The Earth Spirit King, shrouded in mist, was massive and burly, his solemn divine robe fluttering in the fog.

In his left hand, he held a blood-stained book, and in his right, a huge white jade skull.

He looked sinister and terrifying yet also exuded a sacred aura, combining sanctity and eeriness in one.

He looked down indifferently at Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao in the mist as if gazing upon slightly larger ants.

Without answering Xiao Yecao’s question, he spoke to himself coldly.

“Two dead beings, yet able to deceive fate and reverse destiny, one of them even becoming an immortal…”

“This might provide insight into the workings of fate.”

“Jiang Xiaoyu, Jiang Zhiwei, follow me into the netherworld, and you may avoid death.”

“The luxury of the human world cannot escape the depletion of the earth’s essence. The Five Decays of Heaven and Man will inevitably lead to extinction.”

“Follow me into the netherworld, and you may be transformed and spared from disaster.”

The Earth Spirit King spoke to himself indifferently, unexpectedly calling out Li Muyang and Xiao Yecao’s real names.

Xiao Yecao remained silent, but Li Muyang scoffed.

“Follow you into the netherworld to avoid disaster?”

What a load of nonsense.

I come from ten thousand years in the future, where people in the human world can still cultivate.

But your netherworld is completely in ruins with nothing left!

Going to the netherworld would only lead to a quicker and more miserable death.

Li Muyang directly called out to Xiao Yecao and launched an attack on the Earth Spirit King before them.

“Kill it! This ghost is deceiving us!”

Li Muyang showed no mercy, unleashing his skills directly at the terrifying ghost king in the mist.
