Chapter 532: Fighting the Ghosts (1/2)

The lightning strikes and the rumbling thunder was making the ghosts who were observing the fight frightened.

There was never thunder or lightning in the Ghost Realm, but the sheer aura of this martial technique that Xue Wei used, combined with the Lightning Elemental Qi, made them all feel their souls trembling in fright.

The ghost that Xue Wei was up against also sensed the danger. While he was unable to escape the first lightning bolt, he still managed to retreat from the second, and the third only caused him slight injuries when compared to the first that hit him accurately.

Although Xue Wei had managed to catch the ghost unprepared, and in turn, caused him some severe damage, the ghost was not at a point where his soul would shatter.

He was injured, and his body began to release something that looked like steam, but any ghost who saw this scene would be shocked. What was slowly rising from this ghost's body was not steam, but his spirit power.

It was the energy that gave him his strength, and the more that evaporated, the weaker he would become.

This was not something he had done voluntarily. The energy which was escaping him was caused by the lightning that was running rampant in his body, and he could not stop it before he extinguished the streak of energy which was so brazen.

Knowing that his energy was evaporating little by little, the ghost's eyes were full of murderous intent, his teeth were clenched so tightly that they almost shattered, and his hands gathered energy in his palm.

This ghost was so enraged that he had lost his mind. He had forgotten that their boss had told them just to capture him; all that he could think of was to kill him and absorb his energy to make up for what he had lost.

Xue Wei naturally noticed the gleam of cruelty in his eyes, and he could not help but turn serious. While the ghost was enraged and had lost all reason, he was still dangerous; in fact, his attacks would be much more dangerous now, as he would be reckless.

To deal with him, Xue Wei needed to be calm and collected, and abuse the lack of thoughts that the other had.

Currently, Lan was fighting against the other ghost, while Xue Wei was facing off against the one he had struck with lightning.

But neither Lan nor Xue Wei could afford to put all their attention on their target, as a third ghost was standing not far away, leaning against a wall. His arms were crossed over his chest, and his eyes were brewing with interest.

He was a typical ghost, and while he had made a group alongside these other two, he had no interest in looking after them. If their souls shattered, then he would not mourn them. Instead, he would consume their energy.

The only reason he had not acted yet was due to the thunder and lightning that Xue Wei had summoned before.
