Chapter 217: Finally Becoming Dark Night Son

Chapter 217: Chapter 217: Finally Becoming Dark Night Son

Having no other choice, Xu Lin could only recount the events in detail.

When Zhang Yan heard that all twenty-seven Ghost Guards had been killed, his face suddenly changed.

And upon hearing that Guang Lingchen alone had slain twenty Ghost Guards, even Su Changge was dumbfounded, hardly daring to believe it.

"How is that possible?"

Zhang Yan, Su Changge, and the others looked at Ling Chen in unison, their eyes full of incredulity.

This Ling Chen, who clearly had the cultivation of the Spirit Sea Realm, how could he possibly have slaughtered so many Primordial Pill Realm Ghost Guards?

Moreover, amongst them there were even mighty warriors in the late phase of the third layer of the Primordial Pill Realm!

"Whoosh!"

A streak of light burst forth from the forest, landing directly on Feixu.

The person who arrived was unexpectedly a Cultivator in the sixth layer of the Primordial Pill Realm!

He was the previously poised ambushing member of the Dark Night.

As his figure emerged, he looked directly at Su Changge and said, "Brother Su, where are the Ghost Guards?"

They had been lying in ambush within the forest, and when they heard the battle erupt, they did not rush to join in.

They had to evaluate these Dark Night Son candidates first!

However, as they waited for a while, the battle within the forest grew weaker.

Just as they were about to take action, the battle completely ceased.

By the time they reached the battlefield, all they found were the corpses of Ghost Guards and several Dark Night Son candidates.

"Are they dead?"

Somewhat unsurely, Su Changge said.

To say that this group of Dark Night Son candidates had annihilated nearly thirty Ghost Guards, he couldn’t believe it himself!

Therefore, he could only speak in such an uncertain tone!

"What do you mean ’are they dead’?"

The sixth layer Primordial Pill Realm Cultivator looked at Su Changge with a puzzled face.

Su Changge pointed at Xu Lin and the others, and said helplessly, "They said, all the Ghost Guards were slain by them!"

"What?"

The sixth layer Primordial Pill Realm Cultivator was so shocked that he jumped up, staring at Xu Lin and the others with disbelief on his face.

Could these twelve Cultivators, with the highest at the mid-phase of the second layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, really have slain the Ghost Guards who were all at least at the second layer of the Primordial Pill Realm?

Xu Lin spoke up, "To be precise, it was mainly Bai 397 who did the killing."

Bai 397 was none other than Ling Chen’s codename.

Ling Chen’s methods were astonishing; although his Spiritual Power Cultivation was ordinary, he was a top-tier Divine Thought Master!

For him, dealing with Cultivators who were only in the early phase of the Primordial Pill Realm was all too easy!

"It’s impossible!"

Su Changge shook his head vigorously.

It was a joke, a Cultivator at the ninth layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, let alone slaughtering those who were at least at the second layer of the Primordial Pill Realm, may not even be able to defeat them.

And to kill twenty on his own, were those people as weak as chicks?

Those were Ghost Guards after all!

Ling Chen couldn’t be bothered to explain; his hand gleamed, and twenty Ghost Guard tokens flew out from the storage ring, suspended in front of him.

Previously, he had slain twelve Ghost Guards, and during the subsequent time, he killed another eight.

His goal was to become the Dark Night Son and to earn the Protector’s safeguard.

Moreover, according to the rules of the present Dark Night Son competition, one must survive under the pursuit of the Ghost Guards and attempt to kill as many Ghost Guards as possible.

Thus, he directly killed twenty to ensure that he could definitely become the Dark Night Son.

"Pfft!"

Upon seeing these twenty tokens, Zhang Yan almost spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

He no longer felt any sense of relief in his heart.

Twenty Ghost Guards, how many resources had the Royal Family spent to cultivate them?

Yet, in less than an hour’s time, they were all gone!

And to be slain by just one person!

If it had only been these low-level Ghost Guards who died, it wouldn’t have been a big deal, but what was crucial now was that the Dark Night Son had produced such an exceptional individual!

A Spirit Sea Realm ninth layer slaughtering a Primordial Pill Realm third layer Ghost Guard as easily as butchering pigs and dogs, wouldn’t that become a major threat to Great Xia in the future?

"Sir, I think who killed the Ghost Guard is not the most important thing. Don’t you think it’s bad to let an outsider, an enemy of our Dark Night, the Ghost King Guard, know our strength?"

Ling Chen looked towards Su Changge.

He had met Zhang Yan.

Even if he was wearing a human skin mask, Zhang Yan might not recognize him.

But still, there were risks involved.

And what if Zhang Yan deduced his identity based on his silhouette and power?

So, even if he had to expose some of his strength, he could not let Zhang Yan know.

"Exactly!"

Su Changge nodded his head and turned to Zhang Yan: "Brother Zhang, will you leave on your own, or shall we make you?"

Now, only three Ghost Guards remained, while they were sixteen in number, and they had also gained a sixth layer Primordial Pill Realm cultivator.

If they exerted their full strength, they might not be able to keep Zhang Yan, but the other two could definitely be left behind.

"We will leave!"

Zhang Yan gave Ling Chen a deep look as if to memorize him in his mind.

Then he left with two other Ghost Guards.

After the departure of Zhang Yan and the others, only the people of Dark Night remained.

Ling Chen smiled faintly amidst the fervent gazes of Su Changge and the others, saying, "Indeed, my Spiritual Power Cultivation is only at the Spirit Sea Realm ninth layer. With that alone, I am definitely no match for the Primordial Pill Realm! But besides that, I have another identity, that of a superior Divine Thought Master!"

"A superior Divine Thought Master?"

Su Changge and the others exclaimed in shock, their expressions trembling.

Among the candidates for Dark Night Son this year, there was actually a Divine Thought Master, and he was a superior one?

This was a superior Divine Thought Master!

Their Dark Night did not have many of those.

If it was true that he was a superior Divine Thought Master, then they could barely accept Ling Chen slaughtering the third layer Ghost Guard of the Primordial Pill Realm.

After all, the Divine Soul Attack of the transformational realm was terrifying indeed!

Moreover, from Ling Chen’s method, it was clear that his Divine Soul was probably beyond simply having entered the transformational realm!

"Yes, we can testify!"

Xu Lin and the others spoke out in succession.

They had witnessed Ling Chen’s methods firsthand; he was undoubtedly a superior Divine Thought Master!

"Be careful, sir!"

Seeing that Su Changge and the others still had a look of doubt on their faces, Ling Chen sent a wave of Divine Soul Telekinesis towards Su Changge.

This time, he did not use a Divine Soul Attack but the most ordinary type of Solid Realm Divine Soul Telekinesis attack.

"Bang!"

Upon hearing this, Su Changge quickly reacted, releasing a palm strike that shattered the Divine Soul Telekinesis.

"Good, good, good!"

Su Changge nodded excitedly.

Feeling Ling Chen’s Divine Soul Telekinesis, he was completely certain that Ling Chen had indeed reached the level of the transformational realm!

The other three Golden Killers were also incredibly excited.

They did not expect that this time they would recruit a superior Divine Thought Master as a Dark Night Son!

After being excited for quite a while, Su Changge finally calmed down.

He quickly ordered the Golden Killers beside him to call back the other candidates for Dark Night Son.

An hour later, all twenty-six surviving candidates for Dark Night Son gathered in front of the Starwatching Tower.

Su Changge looked at everyone and said excitedly: "I declare, the first Dark Night Son quota of this year’s competition has been decided, and it is Bai 397!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Ling Chen bowed slightly in gratitude.

"No need for courtesy, it’s what you deserve!"

Su Changge moved swiftly, appearing in front of Ling Chen, grasping the latter’s fist, and then patted his shoulder.

And the remaining twenty-five Dark Night Sons looked on with envy.

However, they understood that Ling Chen deserved it.

If not for Ling Chen, they estimated even more of them would have lost their lives.
