Chapter 1386: Chapter 876: Door_3
In the next second, the ghost suddenly moved, stiffly stepping forward with its right leg, taking a step towards Yang Xiao.
Strangely, the female ghost was facing away from Yang Xiao, but the direction it walked was straight towards him, with its thin, pointed feet firmly fixed on Yang Xiao.
At this moment, the hairs on Yang Xiao’s arm stood on end, completely an instinctive reaction. Yang Xiao raised his right hand and directly swung the staff at it.
The blow from the Human Bone Staff landed on the female ghost, causing the figure’s footsteps to pause momentarily, but soon it continued to walk, getting closer and closer.
No longer hesitating, Yang Xiao gathered his courage and channeled his spiritual power into the Ghost Lantern. He concentrated the green light, focusing most of it before the female ghost.
As the green light fully enveloped the female ghost, Yang Xiao could feel the Ghost Lantern capturing an entity, with two forces fiercely clashing against each other.
With Yang Xiao resisting, the speed of the ghost walking backward gradually slowed down, eventually coming to a halt between the 6th and 7th rings.
The stiff left leg raised in mid-air constantly tried to step down, but it was never able to succeed.
Terror, eeriness, hollowness, coldness... countless negative emotions fermented within this eerie space. An ordinary person would have collapsed long ago, but it encountered Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao gritted his teeth and held on. He remembered that the last time this ghost stopped between the 7th and 8th rings.
It seemed he had made great progress during this period. The further he could drive the ghost away, the stronger his spiritual power indicated.
He quickly calculated in his mind that, to completely drive this ghost out of the target range, it would require the strength of a Netherworld Envoy.
Perhaps even stronger, reaching the level of Dean Sheng.
As before, when the ghost found itself unable to move forward, it began to slowly turn around.
Terrifyingly, the ghost’s lower body remained still, while the upper body trembled and subtly turned backward.
At this moment, saying Yang Xiao wasn’t afraid would be untruthful. The reason he could temporarily confront this ghost was largely due to his relatively strong inner strength. But if he were to meet eyes with the "Good Sister," the courage he barely pieced together might collapse in an instant.
"No way, I absolutely can’t let it turn around to look at me!" Yang Xiao resolved.
Fortunately, during this time, Yang Xiao’s spiritual strength had not only skyrocketed but also his control over the Magic Artifact had improved considerably. He manipulated the Ghost Lantern to envelop the female ghost while swinging the Human Bone Staff like a spinning top, striking the Good Sister.
As the Good Sister attempted to turn from the left, he struck right. As it tried from right, he hit left, which gave Yang Xiao immense satisfaction.
He never imagined that he would one day be able to strike the Good Sister. It was... thrilling!
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
The Good Sister reeled like a spinning top from the blows, but Yang Xiao still didn’t stop, even though several of his strikes were ineffective. It was purely gratifying.
Finally, with a final swing, the next second, the female ghost seemed unable to sustain any longer, stopped turning, and retreated with an awkward posture, retreating from Yang Xiao, until it disappeared completely into the darkness.
"Phew—"
"Phew—"
Yang Xiao gasped for breath; he hadn’t expected to drive the ghost away this time.
"Clap."
"Clap."
"Clap."
A sound of clapping came from behind, "Come back, you succeeded." This time, a note of gratification in contrast to Lu Youdao’s previous half-dead attitude was apparent.
Turning around, Yang Xiao saw a door just a few meters away behind him, where Lu Youdao stood watching, clapping his hands.
All around was a chaos of darkness, the only light coming from this door, yet even this door couldn’t dispel the darkness.
Heaved a sigh of relief, Yang Xiao walked towards the door, feeling the uneven ground beneath him like stepping on a rugged mountain path.
As he was about to reach the door, Lu Youdao, rarely, extended a hand to pull him out.
This was unprecedented goodwill. Yang Xiao felt that this gesture represented complete acceptance of him.
