Ghost Catching System

System: "Would you like to exchange the Knocking Demon Sword for Pretentiousness Points?"

Chu Hao couldn’t help but ask, "Is this thing really worth that much?"

System: "I recommend that the host unlock the first seal of the Knocking Demon Sword, which requires 500,000 Pretentiousness Points."

Chu Hao thought for a moment and asked worriedly, "If I unlock its seal, will it affect me?"

System: "It’s possible."

Chu Hao was speechless and said, "Then I won’t unlock the seal for now, I’ll study it further."

Putting away the Knocking Demon Sword, Chu Hao finally looked towards the sky.

Tan Mu was furious and said, "My sword, my sword!"

Tan Mu never expected that Chu Hao could actually erase his consciousness from the Knocking Demon Sword. This extreme Yin-Yang terror was so overwhelming, it reversed heaven and earth.

Without the Knocking Demon Sword, he was just useless, completely devoid of powerful lethality, just a decoration.

The only reason he was fearsome was because of that Knocking Demon Sword.

Tan Mu, filled with fear, said, "Ghost Ancestor, you must help me reclaim the sword."

The Ghost Ancestor snorted coldly and said, "This living human has completely angered this Ghost Ancestor."

Chu Hao looked up at the Ghost Ancestor outside the atmosphere and said, "What a worthless Ghost Ancestor, hiding outside the sky like a cowardly turtle. You really have no guts. I killed three of your subordinates, and you didn’t dare to come down. Are you afraid of dying?"

A group of Evil Ghosts became furious. Since when had the Ghost Ancestor been so contemptuously treated? This kid was really asking for it.

The Ghost Ancestor’s face grew increasingly somber, as he, sitting on the throne, extended a large hand once more.

However, as it approached the atmosphere, it was obliterated by the Yin-Yang Order.

Seeing this, Chu Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he was quite curious why the Ghost Ancestor couldn’t come in, when even someone as strong as Chiyou could walk freely in the Yanhuang World. Could it be that the Ghost Ancestor was even stronger than Chiyou?

That was definitely impossible.

The Ghost Ancestor angrily said, "Damn Yin-Yang Order! This Ghost Ancestor has once given up this world, and now it’s rejecting me?"

"Emperor Shun, you really have some tricks up your sleeve!" the Ghost Ancestor roared furiously.

Fang Han saw Chu Hao’s confusion and said, "The Ghost Ancestor once abandoned this place and chose to leave for the sky. Back then, he was accepted by the Yin-Yang Order, but now he is not. He has already become an outsider."

Chu Hao said, "Is the Yin-Yang Order alive? Otherwise, why would it reject him?"

Fang Han said, "I suspect it’s a trap set by Lord Emperor Shun. The Ghost Ancestor fled to the moon for refuge when he left the Yanhuang World. Someday he will definitely return. If he doesn’t, he will vanish on the moon anyway, as the moon has nothing to replenish ghostly substances."

"Moreover, the Ghost Ancestor chose to return now, probably because the resources they’ve acquired, the Soul Crystals they can absorb, are already running out."

In other words, the Ghost Ancestor must come back. If he doesn’t, he will eventually disappear.

Upon hearing this news, Chu Hao laughed heartily, "What Ghost Ancestor? Just a stray dog preparing to die outside!"

"Ding... host successfully mocked with pretentiousness, earning 40,000 Pretentiousness Points."

Those words were really hurtful.

The Ghost Ancestor flew into a rage, constantly attacking the Yin-Yang Order of the atmosphere, trying to break it and tear Chu Hao apart.

The Ghost Ancestor roared from the sky, "Damn Emperor Shun, you actually guarded against me like this. Only you and Qing Mo can mobilize the Yin-Yang Order, and even after death, you left something behind to harm me."

Outside the atmosphere, the terrifying Ghost Qi was overwhelming, and the angry roars were deafening.

Chu Hao was amazed, really feeling the terror of this Ghost Ancestor.

However, Chu Hao was puzzled afterward.

If he couldn’t get in, then why did the system issue a hunt mission?

Could it be?

The system was always foresightful. Could it be that the Ghost Ancestor had a way to get in?

But looking at it now, he currently had no way to get in.

None of his Evil Ghosts were a match for Chu Hao.

Chu Hao laughed, "Looks like you’re only going to die of old age outside. You bunch of Fierce Ghosts, following such an old dog, what future do you have?"

The other Ghost Shadows’ faces also turned ugly upon hearing this.

If the Ghost Ancestor couldn’t get in, then he might very well grow old alone outside.

Some Evil Ghosts were already thinking about how to leave the Ghost Ancestor. After all, they were Ghost Cultivators, and like humans, they harbored selfish intent.

After getting angry for a while, the Ghost Ancestor calmed down, and looking towards the other Ghost Shadows, he said, "How long have you all followed me?"

A Ghost Shadow trembling said, "I’ve followed the Ghost Ancestor since the Ghost King stage."

"For over seven thousand years."

The Ghost Ancestor said, "Good, after following me for so long, it’s about time you do something for me."

The Ghost Shadows, trembling, said, "For a single word from the Ghost Ancestor, we would die without regret."

The Ghost Ancestor extended a large hand, grabbing a dozen or so subordinates. The other Ghost Shadows screamed in fear.

"Ghost Ancestor, what are you doing?" The group of Ghost Shadows was terrified beyond belief.

The Ghost Ancestor said nothing, he began chanting incantations, and those few Ghost Shadows let out horrific screams, transforming into a faint purple ghostly flame in his palm.

"Not enough yet."

The other Ghost Shadows were terrified beyond belief and turned to flee.

They knew what the Ghost Ancestor intended, to refine them into Purple Ghost Fire and then burn open the Yin-Yang Order of the atmosphere.

The Ghost Ancestor was indeed ruthless enough; they had followed the Ghost Ancestor for many years, and he could still be so heartless.

"Come back."

The Ghost Ancestor extended a great hand, seizing the fleeing Ghost Shadows. He had once had many subordinates, but unfortunately, the Soul Crystals were insufficient on the moon, and countless had already disappeared.

Where could these Ghost Shadows escape from the Ghost Ancestor?

No matter how far they escaped, they were seized by the Ghost Ancestor, refined into Purple Ghost Fire.

"Ghost Ancestor, please don’t, we have been loyal for many years, faithfully."

The Ghost Ancestor coldly said, "I once gave you resources, protected you from being captured by the Yin-Yang Practitioners, led you in resistance against the Yin-Yang Practitioners, and even helped you enhance your power. Now it’s time for you to contribute to me."

"Ah!! No, please."

"Ghost Ancestor, I beg you to spare me, I do not want to die, I still wish to reincarnate."

The Ghost Ancestor mercilessly said, "You have killed countless people, there is no way for you to reincarnate in the Underworld."

One by one, his subordinates were seized and refined into ghost fire by the Ghost Ancestor, utterly despairing, they only wanted to escape with their lives.

Chu Hao felt like swearing, this Ghost Ancestor was truly ruthless. These ghostly creatures had followed him for so long, only to be seized and refined.

Fang Han felt the same; the Ghost Ancestor was truly terrifying.

In fact, Chu Hao felt no pity for these ghostly creatures; they were malevolent and deserved to die long ago.

Now with such an end, it was indeed very sad.

The last two King Level subordinates of the Ghost Ancestor, along with Right Protector Tan Mu, were filled with fear, watching their former comrades, who fought shoulder to shoulder, being seized and refined by the Ghost Ancestor one by one.

They wanted to escape, but they deeply understood there was no way to escape, only hoping that the Ghost Ancestor would successfully refine the Purple Ghost Fire and spare them.

The Ghost Ancestor looked at the flames in his palm and said morbidly, "Still not enough."
