Chapter 397: Chapter 397- Dark Ghost Demonic Beasts

GRAORRLL...

Immediately, some kind of entity manifested from dark smoke and charged towards the running old man.

"We need to save him!"

Tang Xun’er yelled. However, Yang Chen stopped her from exposing herself. There were still a lot of enemies with unknown strength. Not only were their numbers unknown, but there was also this mysterious creature with enigmatic powers.

The quest was designated black rank and unclearable for a reason. The black smoke like entity was extremely fast; in a matter of seconds, it had already tracked down the old man.

The scene that occurred next reminded Yang Chen of the corpse he had found previously. The black smoke, like an insane beast, rampaged to its heart’s content before stopping and disappearing into thin air.

Just before it disappeared, Yang Chen saw some kind of ring flash in the leader soldier’s hand and the faint figure of the entity inside the smoke.

It was a humanoid figure standing on its two feet. The reason he identified it as humanoid was because the thing was very different from a human. It had a tail, sharp claws and backbones. What’s more, its skeleton was actually outside of its body.

"Is that the thing that was created using the [Blood Sacrificial Demonic Fusion]?"

Amon answered in affirmative, "That’s right, what’s more, the demonic essence used to create these things is from an extremely elusive demonic beast, the Dark Ghost. I wonder how these people got their hands on one".

Even the demon was a little impressed which spoke of how incredibly difficult it would be to defeat those things.

Yang Chen released his hold on Tang Xun’er after the soldier group was gone. The three came down and joined with little cloud.

"Looks like the matter isn’t as simple as the disappearance of the villagers" Lin Huyin muttered.

By now, all of them had some faint idea as to what was happening inside the forest. The blackthorn soldiers, the mysterious black smoke... something ominous was going on deep within the forest.

"The situation looks dire than I thought. It would be better for you two to go..."

Yang Chen was just about to say that the two girls should go back when Amon interrupted his thoughts.

"True, the situation looks dire, that is for anyone else other than you"...

"What do you mean?"...

"Kfufu" the demon smiled and answered, "If it were just dealing with the soldiers alone, things might have been difficult. However, with the involvement of the Dark Ghosts and the [Blood Sacrificial Demonic Fusion] skill, things cannot be any easier for you... whisper... whisper"...

Listening to what Amon had to say, Yang Chen realised that there was hope of clearing this black rank quest.

"If you are intent on clearing this quest, then I am going with you" Tang Xun’er spoke her mind. Lin Huiyin silently stared at him, her intent clear.

"There is no need" Yang Chen flashed them a smile "Since you want to help me, let’s clear this quest for good".

Saying that, he turned to look towards a particular direction of the forest.

"Let’s go!"

With him leading, two girls and a demonic beast followed behind. Not long afterwards, they arrived in front of a spacious area with sparse grass and trees.

"Why are we here?" Tang Xun’er questioned.

"Hehe, we are going to clear the trees and grasses here" Yang Chen briefed them about the plan.

The thing with the dark ghosts was that they are extremely susceptible to light and cannot survive in any place that has any sunlight. Their inverted bodies are only able to support themselves due to the dark smoke covering them.

Once the dark smoke covering them disappears, their existence too will be erased. It was also true for any entities created through the skill [Blood Sacrificial Demonic Fusion] using their essence blood.

In this Night Wind Forest, where there is no chance of sunlight shining down, these enigmatic creatures were extremely difficult to deal with. However, once exposed to the sunlight, they were like ants losing all of their powers.

By cutting down the trees and grasses here, Yang Chen was preparing to engage his enemies here.

.

Somewhere within the forest, a small of platoon of soldiers could be seen chasing after something.

"Where did that guy go?"...

"I was sure he came here?"...

"He does not look like a villager"...

RUSTLE... RUSTLE... at this moment, there was movement within the grass, and the soldiers immediately identified where the young man ran off to.

"After him!!"

The chase continued with the young man leading them further and further into the forest. Finally, as if tired of the chase, the soldier leader took a ring from his pocket and put it on his finger.

A black light flashed from the ring, and dark smoke suddenly started coalescing out of nowhere.

GRAOWLLL... A disturbing roar sounded out, and the entity within the smoke opened its eyes. The next second, it fixed its eyes on the figure that was pointed by the light of the ring.

SWOOSH... like a ghost, it charged, its movement ethereal and unpredictable. In one moment it was there, the other moment it was gone.

"Quick dodge, it’s coming at you from your right" Amon hurriedly cautioned.

Split second later, a claw covered in dark smoke arrived and ripped the person apart. However, what it managed to get wasn’t the person, but the afterimage instead. The real person was already ahead and rushing forward.

"Dammit, he is as slipper as a loach"...

"Get him"...

GROAWLLL.... GROAWLLL...

A couple more dark ghosts manifested and charged towards the running figure. This time however, the chase didn’t last long. After moving past the tall trees and thickets, the figure, probably exhausted from the pursuit, came to a stop in front of a clearing.

"Haha, are you finally giving up? Don’t think that we will let you die an easy death. The offence of making us chase you is a serious one. Immediately reveal your identity or prepare to endure hellish pain" The soldier leader cackled.
