Chapter 37 Calamity of the Dead, Vengeful Spirits Attack the City
Undeniably, if it were the previous Fang Han, even if his cultivation had also reached the three-thousand-year level, it would have been extremely difficult for him to instantly wipe out and kill all the vines and roots in the entire Thorn Canyon. After all, even if he used brute force to completely destroy and blast this area, there would always be one or two deeply hidden roots that would escape.
But now everything is completely different. Since successfully killing the Soul-Burning Blazing Tiger King, Fang Han has obtained the [Soul-Burning Ghost Body]. The Yin Yuan True Essence within his body has been endowed with extremely domineering fire attribute characteristics, and the Soul-Burning Ghost Fire is enough to scorch the soul. Moreover, the vast True Essence condensed from three thousand years of cultivation can completely unleash an indiscriminate saturation attack on the entire Thorn Canyon. The extremely Yang and strong ghost fire naturally restrains all Yin and evil plants. No matter how terrifying the regenerative ability of this Resentful Demon Vine is, once it is touched by the Soul-Burning Ghost Fire, it will be absolutely unable to resist and will be burned to nothingness from the root.
Therefore, for Fang Han now, this seemingly most troublesome resentful vine has actually become the easiest town leader to hunt in this operation.
In an instant, he hovered in the void, no longer wasting time testing. The abundant Yin energy in his dantian surged, boiling and rushing like a raging tide into his arms and palms. Then, a massive, almost tangible, dark red sphere of light materialized and compressed between his palms. At the core of the sphere, pale ghostly flames flickered and burned. From afar, it looked terrifying, as if someone had forcibly held up a blazing, destructive sun of the underworld in the gray sky.
Just like when they suppressed those densely packed Ink Crocodiles, the surrounding temperature began to soar at an alarming rate. In a short while, it surged to several thousand degrees, scorching and distorting the air, which crackled and popped.
The next second, as the "sun" in his hand gathered and compressed to the limit he could control, Fang Han's eyes turned cold, and he swung his arms downwards, hurling the destructive ball of light fiercely into the thorny canyon below.
"boom......"
The sphere of light, formed from the Soul-Burning Ghost Flame, instantly elongated, transforming into a falling meteorite. With a long, trailing flame, it crashed precisely into the crimson sea of vines below. Then, accompanied by a deafening roar that seemed to tear the entire underworld apart, the destructive power imbued with the characteristics of the Soul-Burning Ghost Flame exploded in the heart of the canyon. A visible ring of pale flames spread wildly in all directions, instantly transforming the crimson canyon below into a sea of ghost flames, a mixture of destruction and purification.
The area engulfed in flames was exactly the right size, completely shrouding the entire Thorn Canyon and a large surrounding area.
At this moment, it was as if a cataclysmic chain reaction of qualitative change had occurred. The temperature, which was originally only five or six thousand degrees, surged wildly again under the influence of the enclosed canyon terrain and the countless demonic vines acting as fuel, directly breaking through to tens of thousands of degrees. The entire canyon was as if it had been hit head-on by a nuclear bomb, and a massive shockwave, formed from pure, scorching heat, crashed and raged in all directions in a ring shape. Wherever it passed, the writhing dark red vines were instantly vaporized, leaving not even a wisp of ash. Even the hard Nether Rock on both sides of the canyon seemed to have been thrown into a furnace, rapidly softening and melting under the terrifying heat, finally taking on a glassy crystalline form, gleaming with a dark red light.
Meanwhile, the vengeful vines, which formed the mother plant and dominated the entire Thorn Canyon, were almost powerless against the devastating attack falling from the sky, suffering the most direct and catastrophic destruction. Its massive body, covering the canyon, had no time to react effectively; it, along with its alluring flower stamen and the fruit that had just formed, was completely annihilated in the terrifying flames, purified into its most primal form of resentment.
[Successfully defeated the eighth-tier rare realm-suppressing boss - Resentful Vine, increasing Yin Yuan cultivation by 455 days... Gained the Ferocious Ghost Technique: Rapid Regeneration...]
[Netherworld Announcement: Contract Envoy Fang Han has successfully killed the last leader of the third batch of Realm-Suppressing Strategies - an eighth-tier rare and ferocious resentment vine, at a difficulty level of 8... He has received the Netherworld reward: Constitution +70... He has gained 16 points of Yin Virtue.]
[Announcement from the Underworld: The amount of Yin materials in Soul-Suppressing Village No. 13, Naihe Road, Ninja Realm War Zone, has doubled... The amount of Yin Yuan cultivation gained from hunting Yin creatures has also doubled...]
[Crisis Alert from the Underworld: This Soul-Suppressing Village has successfully killed all its leaders. Without the threat of these powerful and malevolent auras, the slumbering, restless forces deep within this underworld have finally broken free of their final restraints… A forgotten legion of vengeful spirits will awaken from the earth and march upon this Soul-Suppressing Village, indiscriminately hunting down and destroying all powerful beings and their contracted foes!]
[From now until one day from now, due to the impact of the resentment from this calamity of departed souls, the protective barrier of Soul Town Village No. 13 on Naihe Road will temporarily lose its protective function! All contracted members of this village are requested to immediately set aside all disputes and return to Soul Town Village to protect this last spark of hope!]
[The Fourth Trial of the Underworld Begins: Successfully protect the Soul-Suppressing Village and repel the Legion of Undead Calamities. Reward: All participating contracts will increase Yin Virtue by 50 points... Yin Yuan Dao Cultivation will increase by 10 years... The Soul-Suppressing Village will be upgraded from a village to a town!]
[Failed to protect Zhenhun Village... Erased! All survivors will become exiles, deprived of the protection of the Netherworld's will. From this day forward, any cultivation gained from hunting Yin creatures will be halved, all previously accumulated Netherworld Blessing multipliers will be reset to zero, and all will be placed in a state of weakness for three days...]
???
"This? This is the so-called fourth batch of trials? Why is it different from the one-on-one battle with the leader that I guessed before!"
"This announcement sounds like a monster siege in one of those games, doesn't it?"
Hearing the continuous, increasingly intense announcements from the Underworld, along with the unprecedentedly serious crisis warning from the Netherworld's will, Fang Han was stunned.
Similarly, all the contract envoys in the entire Soul Town Village No. 13 of Naihe Road were also completely taken aback by this sudden announcement that contained both "bad news" and "good opportunities," and the whole place erupted in chaos.
At this moment, almost all the members of the Underworld Alliance in the Thirteenth Town of the Naihe Road immediately stopped their hunting operations and rushed towards the village like madmen.
[Soul-Suppressing Village No. 322 in the South Korean Underworld War Zone, Contract Envoy Park Il-shin, Highest Yin Virtue Value: 25 points...]
[Winner of the betting contest: Soul Town Village No. 13, Naihe Road, Netherworld War Zone, Kyushu.]
The winning side receives the following rewards from the Underworld: +1 year of Yin Yuan cultivation for the entire village, double the amount of Yin Yuan materials, and double the Yin Yuan cultivation gained from hunting Yin creatures...
[The loser in the pinning operation: Soul Town Village No. 322 in the Underworld War Zone of South Korea.]
[The losing side in the bet will have the following costs forcibly deducted: the entire village's Yin Yuan cultivation points - one year, Yin Yuan materials - double, Yin Yuan cultivation points obtained from hunting Yin creatures - double...]
Suddenly, the moment this cold, impersonal announcement echoed in the minds of all the contract operatives in both villages, a warm and bright golden light simultaneously descended upon everyone in the Soul-Suppressing Village of the Thirteenth Road. Their cultivation levels instantly increased by a full year.
On the contrary, all the contract holders in the 322nd Soul Town felt as if a portion of their power had been violently drawn away by an invisible giant hand, leaving them feeling dizzy and weak, with pale faces.
......
However, these Koreans, still caught up in their previous self-congratulatory euphoria, were perhaps too excited and didn't immediately hear the details of the announcement. The moment the announcement was broadcast, almost everyone subconsciously assumed they had won and immediately cheered excitedly.
