Chapter 012: The Ghost God

“Basha, your six wings are completely insane!” Moses laughed heartily as he saw this.
“Hehe, that guy has six wings that look just like six huge swords—really impressive! A master at fighting in groups,” Basha said happily, seeing how fierce his skeleton was.
Originally, four beings at the Sacred rank or above facing over a hundred Level 9 enemies might be able to win, but it would be a tough fight!
However, thanks to the power of the battlefield domain, Du Fan’s side was unstoppable! Those Necro Knights were utterly helpless in the hands of these four people!
Plus, Naixiu led five archers, shooting arrows at the Necro Knights like swarms of locusts! A group of Level 9 Necro Knights and a group of over a hundred Necro Knights were all wiped out in less than five minutes!
“Not bad, not bad. Strong strength, and a great domain too,” the floating voice sounded again.
“Which god are you exactly? Why don’t you dare show yourself?” Du Fan shouted.
“I am the Ghost God!” the voice replied loudly. “How did you all get in? Where are Qiao and Fan? How are they?”
“Haha, of course we broke in! That God of Food and the Sun God were both defeated by us before we came here,” Du Fan laughed loudly.
“Lies! How could you defeat a god? Tell me, did they deliberately let you in?” the voice demanded angrily.
“Hmph, if you don’t believe it, go check outside yourself,” Du Fan thought to himself with glee.
From his conversations with the God of Food and the Sun God, Du Fan knew clearly that these gods remained confined to their own domains, unable to leave or communicate with each other. Otherwise, the God of Food and the Sun God wouldn’t keep mentioning how lonely they were, with no one to keep them company.
If they could move freely around the Tomb of the Gods, the guardians stationed here would surely communicate with each other.
“Hmph,” the voice snorted coldly and fell silent, seemingly deep in thought.
“Ghost God, since you refuse to meet us, then take away your formation and let us proceed to the next stage,” Du Fan said.
“Impossible! Since you dare enter the Tomb of the Gods, you must be prepared to die!” the Death God said.

“Then come out and fight us! If you really think you’re stronger than that Food God and that Sun God, come out and fight us! Let’s see who kills whom!” Du Fan shouted loudly as well.
The Ghost God was a very cautious deity. Seeing Du Fan and his group reach this place, he naturally began to ponder.
How had those people ahead— the Food God and the Sun God— gotten through?
If they really had fought their way in and killed the Food God and the Sun God, then even if he intervened, he most likely wouldn’t be able to defeat them. But his duty as a guardian demanded that he act!
To fight or not to fight— that was the dilemma for the Ghost God!
If he fought and lost, what if he was killed? If he didn’t fight, what if those above found out and blamed him?
“You cowardly Ghost God, do you dare to come out and fight or not?” Du Fan cursed loudly.
Having seen what the Ghost God said and did, Du Fan probably guessed that this deity had become fearful upon seeing him come all the way from the Food God and the Sun God!
After being cursed like that by Du Fan, even the weakest of deities couldn’t hold back any longer!
The smoke everywhere dissipated with a burst in an instant. On top of a mountain in the valley stood a man dressed entirely in black, holding a long spear, standing upright at the summit!
“Who was calling me a coward just now?” the Ghost God demanded angrily.
“Hiding and using smoke to act sneaky— what else could it be but cowardice?” Du Fan cursed again.
From the Sun God’s warnings and the attacks he faced as soon as he entered the valley, Du Fan was certain that this guardian wouldn’t go easy on him. So, he decided to go straight for it!
Fight a god! He had done it before!
Moreover, this god’s strength didn’t seem that great either. Otherwise, upon hearing that he had killed the Food God and the Sun God and fought his way here, this Ghost God wouldn’t have become fearful!
It seemed this god’s strength was truly weak!
What was more important was that Du Fan had no way to deal with the formation and smoke set up by the Ghost God!
It was better to just call out to the one controlling the formation and fight directly!
“You brat, you’re seeking death!” The Ghost God, true to his nature, spoke in a sinister tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, he thrust his spear at Du Fan from the air!
Although the Ghost God was a bit cowardly, as a deity, his attacks were still fierce!

A swift shot was fired, carrying a fierce killing intent; at the tip of the gun, the space seemed to crack slightly! That shot had an unstoppable force to it! The ground was covered with the corpses of Necro Knights and Necro Horses! The scene resembled a battlefield! In the sky above the battlefield, the Ghost God, clad in black, looked like a giant raven as it charged at Du Fan! Before the Ghost God could reach Du Fan, six arrows were shot from the air! All six arrows were aimed at the Ghost God’s face! Seeing these arrows, a look of disdain appeared in the Ghost God’s eyes and at the corners of its mouth! Such a weak attack, and it still dared to claim it had defeated the Food God and the Sun God—seems that kid was lying to himself. These people must have been deliberately sent in by those two bastards, the Food God and the Sun God! With a scornful smile, the Ghost God fired its black gun repeatedly, causing the six arrows to explode in midair and turn into countless particles that scattered downward! The Ghost God’s attack on Du Fan was only slightly halted! Seeing the Ghost God charging at him, Du Fan narrowed his eyes. The Eye of Truth was already active, and under its observation, the Ghost God’s movements seemed to slow down! This was the first time Du Fan had used the Eye of Truth in a battle against a god. What was the difference in a god’s attacks? That was what Du Fan wanted to know. Indeed, under the observation of the Eye of Truth, Du Fan discovered that the Ghost God’s power resembled a magnetic field, with the center of this field located at the Ghost God’s head! The source of all a god’s power was its divinity, so it seemed that a god’s divinity was hidden in its brain. Du Fan guessed this. Soon, the Ghost God’s gun reached Du Fan’s face. Through the Eye of Truth, Du Fan already knew where the weakest point of the gun’s attack was. Facing the Ghost God, Du Fan smiled slightly, suddenly turned around, and struck the weakest point of the gun with his sword! Under the Eye of Truth, the Ghost God’s speed was slowed down, so Du Fan’s maneuver was effortless. The sword strike hit the exact weakest spot on the gun, causing it to wobble slightly! In this confrontation, Du Fan relied on the power of the Eye of Truth, but in the Ghost God’s mind, it seemed completely different!

In the Ghost God’s perception, this Du Fan, after exchanging a blow with him, wasn’t at all at a disadvantage!
A single person, facing an attack from a god, and yet not falling behind at all!
Moreover, judging by Du Fan’s cultivation level, he didn’t even seem to be the strongest among them! Yet, without being the most powerful, he could still confront him directly.
So, what they said earlier—killing the God of Food and the God of Yang—might indeed be possible.
Then, could it be that he too would be killed by them?
Thinking of this, the Ghost God suddenly became cautious!
He carefully put away his long spear, changed his stance mid-battle, and suddenly altered his direction of confrontation.
“Kid, what’s your name?” the Ghost God asked Du Fan.
“Du Fan, Duke of the Empire. You can call me Duke Du Fan,” Du Fan replied.
“Du Fan, don’t you know that entering the Tomb of the Gods is extremely dangerous?” the Ghost God asked, frowning.
“Of course, but we’re confident. Hmph, those two so-called gods ahead were also like you at first—full of arrogance—but in the end, they fell under our swords!” Du Fan twisted his wrist, and the Frost Snow in his hand emitted a powerful beam of combat energy!
This dramatic move, combined with Du Fan’s serious and earnest tone, shocked the Ghost God!
“Qiao and Fan, what did you do to them?” the Ghost God demanded.
“We didn’t kill them, but they fled seriously injured. Ghost God, do you also want to be seriously injured?” Du Fan said coldly, loudly.
“Hmph,” the Ghost God grunted again, remaining silent, head bowed as if deep in thought.
Seeing the Ghost God’s reaction, Du Fan felt pleased—it seemed this god was truly scared of him.
“The item! Give it to me quickly,” Du Fan suddenly reached out.
“What item?” the Ghost God asked.
“By rule, since we’ve come here, it should be you who gives us what’s related to the Buddha here, and then we’ll fight! Otherwise, even if we kill you now, we won’t know where to find that item,” Du Fan said seriously.
“Wah, yayaya! This really drives me crazy!” the Ghost God suddenly started screaming frantically!
A true god, being threatened by a mere human who threatened to kill him!
How could this not anger the Ghost God? Moreover, this person was standing right in front of him, surrounded by a group of such people!

“Du Fan, you little wretch! You really drive me crazy!” The ghostly deity seemed to have lost its head from anger; it no longer cared whether Du Fan was telling the truth or not, and fired another shot at him!
Damn it, this ghostly deity wasn’t scared this time—it had even gone berserk! That was Du Fan’s first thought. It was already too late to use the True Eye again.
The speed of a god is much faster than that of a saint.
The move he used to fight against the ghostly deity earlier was only possible because he had made thorough preparations and relied on cunning tactics to withstand its attack!
But this time, at such close range, with the deity suddenly going wild and attacking, Du Fan had no time to react at all! Even that true god who had just reached the godly level could crush Du Fan, and this ghostly deity, having guarded this place for tens of thousands of years, surely had a godly cultivation level that was no less than that of a true god!
“Du Fan, you human worm! You keep humiliating me over and over again! Even though I’m seriously injured, I’ll kill you first!” As it charged at Du Fan, the ghostly deity shouted loudly!
The bullet pierced straight into Du Fan’s chest, and the immense power of a god sent Du Fan, who had automatically activated his absolute protection field, flying far away!
Seeing this, the ghostly deity was stunned!
It never expected Du Fan to be so fragile!
