Ghost Catching System-Chapter 644 - 643 - Twenty Thousand Resentful Ghost Army_1

He had 25,000 Mana Points and, at most, could only absorb two thousand five hundred members of the Resentful Ghost Army at one time.

Chu Hao took a Mana Recovery Potion, restored his Mana Points, and continued to work. He couldn't let these Resentful Ghosts escape; that would spell disaster for the living.

However, Chu Hao's methods surprised the toad, who exclaimed, "CROAK! What's this kid's background? How does he have so many magical treasures on him?"

The Ghost Sutras murmured similarly, "Worthy of someone who follows his master, truly remarkable."

Chu Hao spoke indifferently, "You mere mortals, how could you possibly comprehend the power of this Taoist Master."

"DING... Host has successfully been pretentious, receiving 2,000 Pretentiousness Points."

Seeing Chu Hao's pretentious act, the toad felt extremely uncomfortable, but he had to admit, Chu Hao's methods were numerous.

Suddenly, the toad eyed the Ghost Sutras and, chuckling slyly, said, "I want the Ghost Qi from your body."

The Ghost Sutras was not afraid at all and said calmly, "My master is someone you can't afford to provoke."

The toad asked hesitantly, "You have a master?"

The Ghost Sutras said, "If my master knew you, a mere toad, absorbed my Ghost Qi, you definitely wouldn't survive until tomorrow."

The toad was dismissive but still asked, "Who's your master? Tell me. There's no one This Emperor is afraid of."

The pupils of the Ghost Sutras gleamed with twin beams of eerie green light as it arrogantly said, "The Heavenly Bone Woman."

Upon hearing this, the toad muttered, "Heavenly Bone Woman? Why does that sound so familiar?"

Suddenly, the toad's expression changed dramatically. He jumped high into the air, exclaiming, "Your master is the Heavenly Bone Woman?"

The Skeleton Ghost Sutras replied, "Yes."

The toad's attitude took a drastic turn. With an extremely awkward expression, he said, "This Emperor was just joking with you. Don't take it seriously, little skeleton."

The Skeleton was quite pleased, while the toad, on the other hand, looked utterly dejected.

Chu Hao stayed in these deep mountains for an entire half-month, continuously consuming his essence, spirit, and Mana Points. He had become much thinner, with very pronounced dark circles under his eyes.

Starting from the third day, his Mana Points were depleted. Without any Pretentiousness Points to buy Mana Recovery Potions, he could only wait for the slow natural recovery.

Nevertheless, his gains were substantial. In these deep mountains were many former subordinates of the Black Water Ghost King; all eight Semi-Ghost King guards were absorbed by him into the Demon Subduing Ghost Flag.

Of course, they had only been absorbed into the Ghost Flag. Refining them into his personal property would be a matter for later.

It was a huge project.

It took Chu Hao a full half-month before he finally managed to collect all of the Resentful Ghost Army and the former subordinates of the Black Water Ghost King into the Demon Subduing Ghost Flag.

Unexpectedly, including the Resentful Ghost Army and the subordinates of the Black Water Ghost King, the number reached a total of twenty thousand, essentially all the Fierce Ghosts from the Ghost King Valley.

Twenty thousand—what a terrifying number of Fierce Ghosts that was.

In the end, Chu Hao counted them: eight Semi-Ghost Kings, thirty-six Ghost Generals, three hundred and seventy Ghost Soldiers, and countless Dark Killing Ghosts and others.

Chu Hao was dumbstruck.

Because of this, day after day, Chu Hao reached the extreme of exhaustion, yet he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

He had a feeling that this Resentful Ghost Army could help him.

Although he had only completed half of the mission this time, the largest gain might very well be the twenty thousand-strong Resentful Ghost Army.

After checking once more and finding no large groups of Fierce Ghosts, only some scattered ones that couldn't cause any trouble, Chu Hao finally left.

One man, one toad, and one skeleton head returned to Anli City.

The toad insisted on coming along, not fully trusting the skeleton head's words about the Heavenly Bone Woman being its master. He resolved that once they reached Anli City, if the skeleton head had lied, he would absorb its Ghost Qi no matter what.

Chu Hao had initially thought he could exchange the Ghost Sutras for Pretentiousness Points, but he had not expected the Ghost Sutras to be a living entity. Whether it truly was alive or not remained unclear.

Should I take it back and see what Bai Ling has to say?

Half a month had passed since their departure. Upon returning to Anli City, Chu Hao encountered an unexpected situation.

After disembarking from the plane, he headed straight for the villa, only to find, unexpectedly, that Bai Ling was not there. She had left a message with Wang Qing for Chu Hao, saying she was away on a trip for some time.

Damn it, why the heck does a demon need to go on a trip?

The skeleton head became agitated. Although Bai Ling was not present, it could still sense its master's aura within the villa. Such a powerful cultivator's aura excited it immensely.

The skeleton head floated in mid-air, entered Bai Ling's room, and sniffed the scent on the bed. Its perverse expression made Chu Hao shiver.

Rolling excitedly on the bed, the skeleton head said, "This is it! This is the master's scent!"

Chu Hao was puzzled and asked the muscular Wang Qing, "Where did she go?"

Wang Qing looked at the skeleton head strangely and said, "She didn't say."

Bai Ling's departure was more than welcome for Wang Qing; he wouldn't dream of asking where she was headed. Now, the most feared presence in the Seventh District was Bai Ling; people viewed her as a ticking time bomb.

Speaking softly, Wang Qing asked, "What kind of demon is this skeleton head?"

Wang Qing was from the Seventh District. He had witnessed many grand scenes and encountered numerous demons, yet he had never seen a skeleton head that could talk and hover in mid-air.

Chu Hao said, "It's the Ghost Sutras, and Bai Ling is its master. I'm not really sure what this thing is. It would be good if you guys in the Seventh District could do some research."

Wang Qing jumped up, exclaiming, "The Ghost—the Ghost Sutras!"

Wang Qing's reaction was overwhelming. The Ghost Sutras, which had caused such an uproar in the Yin and Yang Realm just recently, was actually a skeleton head?

Coming back to his senses, Wang Qing excitedly pulled Chu Hao to a corner and said, "Master Chu, since the Ghost Sutras is here, then... then what about the Ghost King in the Ghost King Valley?"

Chu Hao replied calmly, "I've already killed him."

"DING... The host has shocked the audience with his boast, gaining 2,000 Pretentiousness Points."

Wang Qing was utterly dumbfounded. How could he not be shocked?

For a long time, the Black Water Ghost King had been a thorn in the Seventh District's side. That brute lorded over the Ghost King Valley, backed by an army of tens of thousands of Resentful Ghosts, fearless even of the Underworld's Ghost Officiants.

Furthermore, after obtaining the Ghost Sutras, the Black Water Ghost King became even more dreaded. Both humans and demons coveted the Sutras and were eager to kill him for them. However, regardless of how many went after him, they all perished in Ghost King Valley.

Yet, such a Ghost King, a menace for both the Seventh District and the Underworld's Ghost Officiants, had been slaughtered by Chu Hao?

My God, you truly are a divine presence!

Now, Wang Qing's heart was filled with nothing but awe. How incredibly strong must one be to exterminate a Ghost King?

Wang Qing swallowed nervously and asked again, "You... you really killed him?"

Chu Hao nodded calmly.

Overcome with emotion, Wang Qing said, "How did you do it? So many of our people from the Seventh District went, but they were all killed, unable to even catch a glimpse of the Black Water Ghost King."

Wang Qing marveled. He's truly worthy of being called a Taoist Master! To kill a Ghost King and remain so composed, while so many of our people died without even seeing a trace of him.

With Bai Ling gone and her phone unreachable, Heaven only knew where she had gone.

The skeleton head intended to wait here for its master to return.
