Chapter 399- Special Dark Ghost

Chapter 399: Chapter 399- Special Dark Ghost

Days passed by while Yang Chen and the party progressed deeper into the Night Wind Forest. During their time, they ambushed multiple platoons of Blackthorn soldiers and defeated many dark ghosts.

With their weakness clear, it became quite easy to defeat them. As for the soldiers, they had yet to meet any of the high level ones. Of course, making such a commotion inside the base of the enemy, it was only a matter of time before some big shot showed up to capture them.

"Looks like the trap I planted worked quite well"...

Yang Chen was not new to this kind of guerrilla warfare. In fact, he had his fair share of experience with the bandits. As such, he could already predict what kind of actions his enemy would take. All that was left was for him to sabotage their plans.

The brainwashed leader he sent was precisely to serve that purpose. They were like viruses, causing even more losses and panic in the command centre of the enemy.

.

Underneath the base of a large tree near a brook, Yang Chen was quietly resting with his eyes closed. Beside him were Tang Xun’er and Lin Huiyin, sitting corssed legged, cultivating and resting their tired bodies.

As could be seen from their disordered hair and worn down clothes, the journey till here was not easy. Not only did they have to be alert of the enemy blackthorn soldiers and the dark ghosts they commanded, but also of the demonic beast that resided inside this jungle.

As a result of constant fighting and being on edge every day, it weighed down on their minds. What’s more, the dark, gloomy environment of this place didn’t help either. That said, it was not like this place was all that bad.

Not only did it have plenty of natural treasures, but there was also a constant struggle for survival amongst the natives of this forest. As a result of the intense battle, the two ladies’ cultivation had soared with each achieving a breakthrough.

In the case of Lin Huiyin, she achieved another breakthrough today, stepping into the realm of Two Star Battle Grandmaster. As for Tang Xun’er, she already had half a foot into the Battle Overlord realm.

With their strength improving, their overall combat power had also improved. Yang Chen slowly opened his eyes and looked in a particular direction of the forest.

At the same time, Little Cloud jumped down from the tree and nestled its head towards him.

"Yeah, I know. Look after them".

It growled, pointing its head towards the two ladies.

"No, let them rest. The two of them have been working hard these past couple of days. They deserve a break".

Saying that, Yang Chen activated his dark skill [Traceless Shadow Advent] and slowly disappeared from sight without alerting the two.

.

In another area of the forest, a platoon of soldiers could be seen making their way through the forest. A large number of demonic beasts wearing collars and chains could be seen leading the group.

If one looked carefully, all these demonic beasts belonged to the same race and were actually bred, rather than raised in the wild. What’s more, given by the fact that they were constantly using their nose to smell, they were tracking something or someone.

"Is there still no trace of those invaders?"

A soldier spoke. He had this serious and strict air about him that spoke of his rank. If ordinary soldiers were only foot soldiers, then he was three ranks above them. That is to say, he was quite a high ranking official and a powerful practitioner.

"Lord Lai Zemin, please wait. The abyssal hounds picked up some trace. I’m sure it won’t be long before we find those invaders" A soldier who seemed to be one or two ranks higher than a foot soldier reported.

"Hmph, useless all of you. To think that you allowed intruders to encroach this deep inside. Do you all even realise the significance of this mission? When lord Hu Ming comes out of his cultivation, all of our heads will roll. If you don’t want that to be your future, you’d better find those intruders before that".

The soldiers, fearing for their lives, got into searching as if their lives depended on it. Not far from them, hanging from the branch of a tree upside down, was Yang Chen quietly eavesdropping on them.

"Two Nine Star Battle Grandmasters and one Three Star Battle Grandmaster. Haha, so the soldiers of Blackthorn are finally getting serious huh".

He muttered to himself, observing the strength of the enemies.

"It’s not just them. Look at the demonic beasts they are using. Abyssal Hounds, although they cannot be considered strong in the demonic beast world, their olfactory sense is one of the best among the demonic beasts. Looks like these soldiers are furious about the gift you left for them" Amon explained, cackling demonically.

"Well, I’m glad they liked it".

The gift the demon mentioned was none other than the brainwashed soldier leaders. While Yang Chen was observing them, the platoon of soldiers slowly inched closer towards his direction.

The abyssal hounds, renowned for their olfactory sense, picked up some kind of smell. However, under the effects of the skill [Traceless Shadow Advent], even these demonic beasts were unable to pinpoint his location.

When the skill was low level, Yang Chen was able to conceal his presence even from enemies multiple levels higher than him. Now that the skill’s completion rate had reached advanced, almost reaching peak, even a battle overlord was unable to sense him.

WOOF... WOOF... WOOF...

"Wait, what’s going on with the Abyssal Hounds?"

Seeing the demonic beasts suddenly start barking, Lai Zemin, who was busy lazying around, suddenly stood up from his seat and questioned.

"My lord, we don’t know. The abyssal hounds are suddenly acting weird".

They were running amok in this place left and right, barking crazily.

Lai Zemin looked at their behaviour before coming to a realisation.

"You idiot, the abyssal hounds are acting this way because they have picked up the smell of the enemy".
