Ghost Catching System
Chapter 945 - 943: Corpse Monsters, Hell Beast
Chu Hao sighed, the resources are still not enough.
Chu Hao said, "Stop taking orders; I’m going out for a trip."
Luan Yu was puzzled, and said, "Master, where are you going?"
Chu Hao said, "Mang Gu battlefield, take care of the house properly. Besides, don’t accept the Underworld Currency for now; keep the Corpse Monsters for me, we’ll talk about it when I come back."
Luan Yu was shocked; is the master going to the Mang Gu battlefield alone?
This time, Chu Hao decided to delve deep into Mang Gu battlefield. It is said that the number of Corpse Monsters in Mang Gu battlefield is beyond count; those appearing at the border are just a drop in the ocean.
Chu Hao was ready to set off.
He heard news that a large number of Corpse Monsters appeared in the north-south direction deep in Mang Gu battlefield, occupying an entire mountain range.
Moreover, the Yin Army Soldiers have begun defensive measures. If this overwhelming number of Corpse Monsters attacks, it would surely be a headache.
Setting foot on Mang Gu battlefield, Chu Hao went south alone.
The Land of the Vast Ancient.
An endless wasteland, without grass, without life, only boundless rocks and earth.
Steep peaks rise abruptly, as if to pierce into the Void; they are the Netherworld’s lands, formed by vast terrain over billions of years.
But, is there no plant life in the Land of the Vast Ancient?
There is.
A type of black grass, known as Youming Grass, grows two meters high; in the dark of night, it sways like Ghost Shadows.
Chu Hao took out a map of the Land of the Vast Ancient, noting too many mountains and rivers. The Land of the Vast Ancient is too vast, who knows how large; it is said to be ten times the size of Fengdu.
Perhaps ordinary Ghosts will never know how big the Underworld is in their lifetime.
He marked the place he was about to go.
As he advanced, he encountered Ghost Cultivators and small Yin Army Soldiers, hunting scattered teams of Corpse Monsters, but Chu Hao paid no attention to them.
The number of these Corpse Monsters did not catch his eye.
Moving forward twenty or thirty kilometers.
Suddenly, a troop appeared ahead; it was a small army of about a thousand Yin Army Soldiers, seemingly fleeing desperately.
Chu Hao saw at a glance, chasing them were a group of Corpse Monsters, numbering around twenty to thirty thousand.
"Run!"
"Master, we can’t escape; this whole Mang Gu battlefield is full of Corpse Monsters, and there are more behind." a Yin Army Soldier said hopelessly.
The General gritted his teeth, "Send a unit out, and ensure the message gets back to the Master."
The Yin Army Soldier hastily asked, "What about you?"
"I’ll hold them off."
The General had decided to block the way, allowing his subordinates to escape and report back.
"Roar!"
The ground trembled slightly as a group of agile Corpse Monsters arrived, stampeding.
At this moment, a figure leapt over the army and charged into the Corpse Monsters’ ranks.
Shadows of swords were like light, slicing through the chaos; one Corpse Monster after another fell, exploded, pierced, swept, and crushed.
Meanwhile, a book appeared on that person, frantically extracting the Yin Souls within the Corpse Monsters.
All the Yin Army Soldiers, including the General, were stunned.
"Rescue is here!" a Yin Army Soldier shouted excitedly.
But upon closer inspection, this rescue’s power was shockingly terrifying.
That endless volley of swords was so fast; over three hundred Endless Swords slaughtered those Corpse Monsters leaving none behind.
In just a short time, over twenty thousand were destroyed, not a single Corpse Monster broke through the defense line, even those First Stage power-type Corpse Monsters couldn’t escape their fate.
The remaining Corpse Monsters felt terror and retreated frantically.
Chu Hao, with hands behind his back, let the wind from Mang Gu blow past, lifting the corners of his clothing, exuding a mysterious nobility.
The General and the group of Yin Army Soldiers ready to die were dumbfounded by what they saw.
A two- or three-thousand Corpse Monster army was completely defeated by one person; how powerful was this?
The General cautiously asked, "Who are you?"
Chu Hao turned around and said, "How many Corpse Monster armies are ahead?"
The General took a deep breath; regardless of who the opponent was, they had just saved him and his troops, and with such formidable strength, he respectfully answered, "Master, there’s a million Corpse Monster army ahead."
A million!
Chu Hao’s eyes shone; was his purpose for coming to Mang Gu battlefield not to seek Corpse Monsters?
Chu Hao said, "Alright, I understand."
He wanted to continue into the depths.
The General was surprised, "Master, wait."
Chu Hao turned around and coolly said, "Is there anything else?"
Chu Hao realized this was a Chiliarch.
The General respectfully said, "Master, are you going in alone?"
"Why not?" Chu Hao responded indifferently.
"Ding... Host’s infinite pretentiousness, most deadly, receives 7000 Pretentiousness Points."
The Yin Army Soldier’s jaws dropped in shock; what terrifying existence had they encountered?
The General couldn’t help but wonder if this person was truly powerful or just going to their death.
Despite hearing about a million Corpse Monster army, they still wanted to move forward.
The General reminded him, "Master, within that million Corpse Monster army, Second-Stage Zombie Monsters are not few; the subordinate even saw a nearly hundred-meter Hell Beast."
A hundred-meter Hell Beast!
Chu Hao was shocked; wasn’t that thing already extinct?
Oh right, when he first appeared in the Land of the Vast Ancient, he saw a massive skeleton; was it also the skeleton of a Hell Beast?
"Besides, there are three Second-Stage Taoist Corpses," the General added.
Chu Hao took a deep breath; while he was quite skilled, Taoist Corpses were indeed troublesome, and he had never faced Second-Stage Taoist Corpses.
The General said, "Why not come back with me, Master, to discuss how to deal with the million-strong army."
Chu Hao coolly replied, "Discuss with you?"
The General hurriedly said, "Not with me, with our Jinmu Army’s Leader."
The General thought that mentioning his army would surely make the opponent recognize them.
Little did he know.
Chu Hao asked, "Is your army’s size significant?"
The General’s lips twitched; he actually didn’t know about the Jinmu Army.
"Our Jinmu Army boasts a million strong warriors."
A million Yin Army Soldiers, of the same rank as Elder Nan’s Myriarch; indeed, quite large in scale.
However, how could Brother Hao be so foolish to let them take the Corpse Monsters from him?
"I’ve noted, goodbye."
Chu Hao, without looking back, ventured further into the depths.
This left the General a bit baffled.
"Master, let’s go; walking alone inside would certainly be suicidal," a Yin Army Soldier said.
The General nodded slightly and left the place.
As Chu Hao continued forward, he traveled another five or six kilometers and finally saw the Corpse Monsters.
Below a basin surrounded by mountains, a terrifying number of Corpse Monsters resided.
At a glance, the number of Corpse Monsters seemed endless; he even saw one enormous Corpse Monster, a hundred meters tall.
This was a decayed skeleton, like a small mountain, extraordinarily terrifying.
A Hell Beast.
This creature was legend; it was already completely dead, controlled by Yin Souls.
Legend has it, Hell Beasts exist to cleanse the number of Ghosts, their terror is recorded deeply within the Underworld.
Chu Hao exclaimed, "Such a huge mass, what level of Yin Soul is needed to control it?"
