Chapter 82 - The Peerless Ghost Beauty, Evil Radiance Ghost God Slash
Yan Qinglong hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he hardened his resolve and swallowed the pill.
Madness filled his eyes.
This was a Demon Transformation Pill, something he had obtained from a secret realm. It was his final trump card.
After using it, he could gain the powerful bloodline strength of the demon race for a short time.
However, the side effects were extremely severe. At best, it would cause mental confusion and damage to the mind.
At worst, his soul would be devoured, turning him into a puppet of the demon race.
But at this moment, he could no longer care about any of that.
If he didn't use the Demon Transformation Pill, he would definitely die.
If he used it, he might still have a sliver of hope.
"You forced me into this. Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"
"Since you won't let me go, then let's die together!"
The moment he swallowed the pill, Yan Qinglong's body suddenly swelled.
Dense scales rapidly covered his entire body.
His face became ferocious and bloodthirsty,
his eyes turning dark and hollow, impossible to look at directly.
"What… what is this? This is the aura of the demon race?"
"What kind of mutation happened to Yan Qinglong?"
"That's the aura of the Demon Transformation Pill, an extremely evil thing."
"I didn't expect him to have it. Looks like he's going all out!"
"His power has increased several times over!"
"Run! Hurry up and run! Otherwise we'll all die here!"
Fat Tiger and his team all had extremely grim expressions.
They had just been immersed in the shock of Zhou Han defeating Yan Qinglong.
And now such a sudden change had occurred.
In Azure Thunder City, everyone feared demons.
Many had witnessed their terrifying strength.
Now seeing it with their own eyes, how could they not be afraid?
Fat Tiger wanted to warn Zhou Han and tell him to retreat,
but everything happened in a flash—there was no time at all.
"Ah! Blood… I want blood! All of you must die!"
At this point, Yan Qinglong's consciousness was already in chaos.
Only the instinct for bloodthirsty slaughter remained.
The scales on his body seemed alive,
transforming into a monstrous creature that opened its bloody maw and lunged at Zhou Han.
"Damn it!"
"This is bad!"
Fat Tiger and the others were so terrified their throats nearly burst.
But Zhou Han showed no fear.
"The demon race? Let me see if you can withstand the power of the ghost gods!"
It was the perfect chance to test his newly fused skill—
to see whether the ghost gods were stronger, or the demon race.
"Evil Radiance Ghost God Slash!"
As the skill was activated, the entire space instantly turned dim.
A cold, bone-chilling wind came from nowhere.
A soft figure floated in midair,
her entire body covered in a thin layer of mist. Her figure was alluring, but her true appearance could not be seen.
"A female ghost? Could she be the ghost god?"
Zhou Han wondered silently.
At that moment, she spoke in a language no one could understand.
Her voice sounded both like crying and laughing at the same time, sending chills down everyone's spine.
After she finished, countless ghostly figures appeared,
all revolving around her as their center.
Then those ghost shadows transformed into streaks of dark light,
rushing straight toward the demonized Yan Qinglong.
"Roar! Get lost, damn ghosts!"
As the cold wind swept in, Yan Qinglong roared in irritation.
"How dare you offend the dignity of the demon race, you—ahhh!"
He tried to drive the ghost shadows away, but they were like something that could not be killed.
Soon, he couldn't hold on anymore, and miserable screams rang out.
The ghost shadows were like starving spirits pouncing on prey.
The hard scales on Yan Qinglong's body were completely useless.
They tore through his defenses and began to devour him.
"Crunch… crunch…"
The sound of bones and flesh being chewed made everyone's scalp go numb.
It seemed that the demon's body had some irresistible attraction to these ghosts.
In just over ten seconds, Yan Qinglong was completely devoured.
Not even a strand of hair remained, as if he had never existed.
"My god! What the hell are those things? This is terrifying!"
"The demonized Yan Qinglong was instantly killed… eaten completely clean!"
"Damn… what kind of existence did we provoke? This is too horrifying!"
"Waaah… we're finished! They're flying toward us!"
"Just kill me! I don't want to be eaten by those things!"
…
The remaining members of the Azure Dragon Adventure Group trembled violently, crying in terror.
Some even begged their companions to kill them first,
anything was better than being devoured alive by those ghost shadows.
Even Zhou Han himself felt his scalp tingle at this moment.
He hadn't expected the Evil Radiance Ghost God Slash to manifest in this way.
According to the skill description, it should charge for 1 to 5 seconds and then deal damage to a single target.
But now, it had summoned so many ghost shadows.
Clearly, something had gone terribly wrong.
So the cause of this anomaly must be…
Zhou Han focused his gaze on the female ghost in the air.
At the same time, she seemed to sense something,
turning her head to look at him.
The mist covering her face slowly dispersed.
Revealing a peerlessly beautiful face.
Their eyes met, and she gave him a wicked smile.
It was impossible to tell what she meant.
Zhou Han frowned. He had never seen this face before.
Yet she seemed to recognize him somehow.
Before he could think further, the screams around him snapped him back to reality.
At that moment, countless ghost shadows had already begun devouring the remaining members.
A cold wind swept through, and that area was left completely empty.
As if those people had never existed at all.
Soon, the ghost shadows noticed Fat Tiger and his group,
and rushed toward them with eerie laughter.
"Stop! All of you, stop!"
Seeing this, Zhou Han hurriedly shouted.
Fat Tiger and the others had no grudges against him—
they had even stood up for him earlier.
Naturally, Zhou Han wouldn't just stand by and watch them die.
However, the ghost shadows seemed to ignore his command completely.
There was no sign of them stopping.
"What the hell? My own skill isn't even listening to me?"
Zhou Han was stunned. This was the first time he had encountered something like this.
But there was no time to think.
Saving Fat Tiger and the others was the priority.
Otherwise, not even their bones would remain.
"If you won't listen, then I'll just erase all of you!"
Zhou Han's gaze sharpened.
These ghost shadows were difficult to deal with,
and he was about to unleash Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin.
But at that moment, the voice of the female ghost came from midair.
Only then did the ghost shadows finally stop.
They retreated and disappeared back into the darkness.
As expected, all the ghost shadows obeyed the female ghost.
This made Zhou Han, the actual user of the skill, feel quite displeased.
"Who exactly are you? Why are you here?"
Zhou Han directly voiced his doubts.
This female ghost clearly had her own consciousness.
He had to figure out whether she was an enemy or an ally.
However, the female ghost did not speak.
It was unclear whether she was mute, didn't understand human language, or simply didn't want to answer.
She only gave another wicked smile in response.
