They moved swiftly, and by dusk, they finally arrived near the Valley of the End.
"Why is our luck so bad?"
"That's something you should ask yourself, 'Mr. Lucky Hand'."
Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes as he spoke, while Nezha was somewhat huffing in annoyance.
After all the effort he put into defeating the enemy, you just reach out and end up with trash, touch again and it's still trash!
How could anybody accept that?
Though his luck was a bit worse than Mu Qianshan's, but so what? He didn't get to go first!
Nezha: with-a-righteous-expression.jpg
"That should be the Valley of the End up ahead."
"Right."
After comparing the location with the map, Mu Qianshan nodded at Jiang Yuan.
The Valley of the End is a canyon situated between two large mountains.
Within the Valley of the End runs a winding river, mainly divided into three parts.
The Moon Shadow Spring at the end of the river, the Golden Plains which lay below the spring, and lastly, the entrance to the Valley, the Dark Forest.
The three stages of terrain are connected by the winding river, with the final destination being the Moon Shadow Spring.
That is also where the fighting among All Clans is the most intense.
"Let's go, we're heading in."
Upon reaching the entrance of the Dark Forest, Jiang Yuan spoke and entered the forest with Nezha and Shi Ji.
Mu Qianshan followed closely behind.
Tall trees towered above, with dense foliage blocking out the sky.
Due to the perpetual absence of sunlight, the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, rustling upon being stepped on.
An occasional cool breeze would rustle the leaves, producing a spooky hissing sound that added to the eerie atmosphere of the Dark Forest.
However, neither Jiang Yuan nor Nezha were particularly afraid of this atmosphere and continued walking calmly.
"I wonder if the Ghost Spirit Clan is waiting to ambush us here."
Mu Qianshan, walking beside Jiang Yuan and Shi Ji, joked with a smile.
"Don't jinx it!"
Jiang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he sensed a change the next second.
Both the Unihorn Smoke Beast beneath him and Shi Ji, who was also riding it,
Including Nezha and Mu Qianshan beside him, had all vanished without a trace at that moment.
Jiang Yuan found himself in a foggy space.
The space was empty, and realizing this, Jiang Yuan sighed helplessly.
"Mu Qianshan and his bad omens!"
After shaking his head helplessly, the Linglong Tower enveloped him entirely.
This space, without a doubt, was a card ability by the Ghost Spirit Clan.
Compared to the Human Clan, the Ghost Spirit Clan was more adept at Scene Cards.
Clearly, the card that had suddenly transported Jiang Yuan here on his own was a Scene Card.
It was unclear whether this Scene Card was akin to the 'ghost hitting the wall' type that traps enemies or one with offensive abilities.
But no matter, once Nezha outside defeats the opposition, this card will automatically deactivate.
The card abilities of the Ghost Spirit Clan differed from those of the Human Clan.
Cards of the Ghost Spirit Clan typically disable automatically upon the user's death.
Unlike some Human Clan Scene Cards, which can continue even after the user dies.
Jiang Yuan calmly hid inside the Linglong Tower. Meanwhile, Nezha and the others outside noticed Jiang Yuan's sudden disappearance.
"Don't panic, this is a Scene Card from the Ghost Spirit Clan. Once we eliminate the Ghost Spirit Clan, Jiang Yuan will reappear!"
Mu Qianshan quickly shouted, his voice gradually fading away and disappearing.
It was clear he, too, had been affected by the Ghost Spirit Clan's Scene Card and was trapped within it.
"Ghost Spirit Clan!"
Nezha sneered coldly, the Universe Ring floating up and down with his movements, while the Samadhi True Fire rose, illuminating their surroundings as bright as day.
The next second, Nezha was also pulled into the Scene Card.
Watching the hundreds of oddly shaped ghosts in front of him, Nezha also broke into a smile.
"Just thinking this is enough to trap me?"
Nezha laughed as he brandished the Fire-tipped Spear in his hand, each sweep releasing a large burst of Samadhi True Fire.
The Demon Suppression skill of the Fire-tipped Spear increased the damage dealt to phantasmal enemies.
This is why every swing of the Fire-tipped Spear could wipe out a large number of ghosts.
In no time at all, Nezha had killed off all the ghosts in the scene.
After breaking the Scene Card, Nezha opened his eyes and looked toward Shi Ji by his side.
Seeing Shi Ji's state, Nezha smiled again.
"I didn't expect you to break the Scene Card's restriction faster than me."
"Let's find our opponent first."
Shi Ji nodded slightly; her Scene Card challenge was against the Undead Clan?
How should one put it? It was quite marvelous.
That's why Shi Ji was able to break free from the Scene Card's restriction so quickly.
Not to mention the Undead Enslavement and Bone Spirits that she summoned, her own skills alone were more than enough to kill off the Undead Clan.
It's not just Jiang Yuan who is invincible among peers.
"Break!"
With an angry shout, Mu Qianshan reappeared on the field.
"A mere Ghost Spirit Clan, hiding and seeking!"
A killing aura leaped out of Mu Qianshan's body, and the Purple Mansion Sword glinted with purple lighting, constantly striking at the surroundings.
In just a moment, several Ghost Spirits from the clan who were hiding in the woods were forced out.
"I didn't expect you to break the Scene Card's restrictions so easily!"
The Ghost Spirit Clan looked like ghosts, draped in gray cloaks, all floating instead of walking, with no feet to be seen, and their faces invisible.
"Hiding and seeking!"
Nezha sneered, as the Wind and Fire Wheel sped up towards the five Ghost Spirits that had just appeared.
The leading Ghost Spirit was expressionless, not that one could see its face anyway.
But as the blue card in his hand flickered, a Shield Guard controlled by gray translucent threads appeared in front of Nezha.
While it was unclear which clan the Shield Guard belonged to, the Ghost Spirit Clan, compared to the Undead Clan, tended to manipulate souls more like puppets in a puppet show.
One Ghost Spirit manipulated the Shield Guard to block Nezha's attack while the other four launched an offensive against Nezha and Shi Ji.
Four Blue Quality Cards shone, but the next second Nezha's Fire-tipped Spear and Qiankun Ring had already taken out two of them.
Mu Qianshan had also broken through to the Ghost Spirit's side and started fighting with a Ghost Spirit that manifested a scythe with a blue card.
The five Ghost Spirits of later Xuanxiao stage strength were killed by Nezha the instant they came into contact with him, two of them instantly dead.
With a flat thrust from the Fire-tipped Spear in Nezha's hand, he eliminated the Shield Guard controlled by the Ghost Spirit, then pointed the spear directly at the main body of the Ghost Spirit.
The Ghost Spirits were greatly alarmed, obviously realizing that they had provoked someone they shouldn't have.
"Retreat!"
The Ghost Spirit who was controlling the Shield Guard shouted hoarsely, and the next second his figure began to blur, becoming transparent.
But Nezha, expressionless, swept out with his spear, knocking the hidden Ghost Spirit flying.
"Whoosh!"
The Fire-tipped Spear was thrown, stabbing the Ghost Spirit that had just been sent flying to death.
Their Defense Equipment was directly broken.
That's what they get since their Defense Equipment relied on the defense effect of skills, not on the actual defense strength.
The Fire-tipped Spear was very effective against defense equipment that relied on protective effects.
Shi Ji did not take any action throughout; another Ghost Spirit wielding a Magic Wand was bound by the Qiankun Band and could not turn invisible.
Although Mu Qianshan had some difficulty facing the late-stage Xuanxiao Ghost Spirit, with the [Lawfulness] skill of the Purple Mansion Sword, he managed to hold his ground.
In just a moment, Nezha had dealt with the Ghost Spirit that had been bound by the Qiankun Band.
The battle on Mu Qianshan's side had also reached its end.
With the exquisite moves of [Xuan Ting Sword Art], Mu Qianshan shattered the last remaining Defense Equipment of the Ghost Spirit Clan.
