After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Hearing Jiang Chen’s laughter, Tu Zheng and the others immediately used their divine sense to probe the situation inside the Ghost Tower.

What they saw left them all dumbfounded.

The first three floors of the Ghost Tower were filled with ghosts without spiritual intelligence.

They saw Jiang Chen transformed into a golden body tens of meters tall, randomly grabbing a ghost and hammering away at it.

Perhaps it was his excessive violence, or perhaps it was the fear of the Buddhist light, but the rest of the ghosts didn’t even dare come close.

The middle three floors of the Ghost Tower.

The ghosts here were comparable to Earthly Origin realm cultivators and possessed a certain level of intelligence.

When Jiang Chen just reached the fourth floor, he was attacked by a group of fierce ghosts.

But all he did was utter the six true words of the Buddhist family, and the fierce ghosts screamed continuously, cowering in the corner and too afraid to move.

Seeing this, Tu Zheng’s mouth twitched uncontrollably, cursing inwardly for the shamelessness.

Although Jiang Chen possessed superior-grade Buddhist teachings and secret scriptures, he repeatedly refused to come to the Ghost Tower at first.

Wasn’t this a trap for him?

Fortunately, things weren’t that bad.

The real danger lay in the last three floors of the Ghost Tower.

Captured by the high-ranking members of the Ghost Controlling Sect from the Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss over the centuries, the ghosts on these floors were each comparable to Heavenly Origin cultivators.

To say the least, any one of these ghosts, if released, could wreak havoc everywhere.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Jiang Chen finally reached the seventh floor of the Ghost Tower.

Everyone thought there would be a great battle this time.

But who could have expected that the moment he entered the seventh floor, Jiang Chen raised his hand and unleashed the move “Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon”.

Even the ghostly apparitions of the Heavenly Origin realm were no match for the golden dragon wrapped in Buddha’s light, and they could only flee in a sorry state.

Just like that, Jiang Chen reached the ninth floor almost effortlessly and without resistance.

“…”

Seeing this, Tu Zheng was utterly disheartened.

At this moment, he regretted it.

He regretted why he had been so foolish as to force Jiang Chen into the Ghost Tower.

Wasn’t this just giving away spirit stones?

But what made him even more desperate was yet to come.

After entering the ninth floor, Jiang Chen did not go to rescue Lin Mubai, who was in the midst of a fierce battle but instead took out a dark blue crystal from his bosom.

Though small, Tu Zheng recognized it at a glance.

“Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring!!”

The moment they recognized the item, the people from the Ghost Controlling Sect thought of something and prepared to rush into the Ghost Tower.

But before they could act.

Xiao Hongyi and Chen Sheng blocked their way.

“Take one step forward, you die!”

Both of them declared simultaneously.

……

Moments before, on the ninth floor of the Ghost Tower.

When Jiang Chen arrived here in his golden body state, he found Lin Mubai in the center, battling a group of ghostly apparitions.

Lin Mubai was wounded in many places, but he fought more fiercely as the battle progressed, sometimes even relying on instinct to fight in a state of enlightenment.

“This is the fully activated Innate Dao Bone,” Jiang Chen murmured to himself.

He had known all along that Lin Mubai would be fine.

After all, Lin Mubai possessed the Innate Dao Bone, and although his cross-realm combat ability was not strong, his cultivation speed was terrifying.

When he left the Jiuyan Sect, Lin Mubai was just at the early stage of the Heavenly Origin realm, but now he had reached the middle stage and was even showing signs of breaking through to the late stage.

Ignoring Lin Mubai, who was still fighting, Jiang Chen casually found a corner to sit down.

He took out a dark crystal from his bosom.

This crystal was the system reward he had obtained not long ago, the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring.

The Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring is an eighth-grade spiritual treasure.

It could absorb ghostly qi and refine it into a crystal on its own, not only helping ghostly apparitions to shape their ghostly bodies but also extending their ghostly lifespan to a certain extent.

Jiang Chen had never known what use he had for this item.

But since he had nothing better to do at the moment, he might as well use the ghost crystal to absorb the ghostly qi inside the Ghost Tower, making it stronger and more potent.

No sooner said than done, he placed the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring on the ground and quietly waited.

Soon, the ghostly qi inside the ninth floor of the Ghost Tower converged into a vortex, frantically rushing into the ghost crystal.

In an instant, the ghost crystal shone with a dark blue light, pulsing like a heartbeat.

After several moments, the ghost crystal had doubled in size.

Just as Jiang Chen was about to put it away,

“Die!!”

Lin Mubai suddenly shouted from a distance, cleaving the ghostly apparition in front of him in two.

The ghostly apparition let out a miserable scream and dissipated into ghostly qi.

At the same time, the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring shone with a dark blue light again and absorbed all that ghostly qi.

“Hmm?”

Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up.

He had discovered the secret to wealth!

He had originally thought that the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring could only absorb natural ghostly qi, but it could also absorb the ghostly qi from the dissipation of ghostly apparitions.

And inside this Ghost Tower, there were thousands of ghostly apparitions.

If he could slay all these ghostly apparitions and use them to nourish the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring, the ghost crystal might break through from the eighth grade to reach the height of a ninth-grade spiritual treasure.

A ninth-grade spiritual treasure? Such a treasure had never appeared in the Central Domain, and even in the Upper Domain, it was extremely valuable.

Such a high-level spiritual treasure, even if he couldn’t use it himself, would be a good choice whether for exchange or sale.

For Jiang Chen, the Central Domain was just a temporary resting place.

He would eventually return to the Upper Domain, save the Jiang family, and confront the Imperial Dynasty.

For this goal, he must increase his cultivation and accumulate resources as quickly as possible.

With this in mind, Jiang Chen looked at the ghostly apparitions surrounding Lin Mubai and grinned ferociously.

He once again transformed into his golden body state, stepped forward quickly, and threw a punch.

His fist was wrapped in Buddha’s light, dispelling the darkness wherever it went, bringing out a seven-colored Buddha’s light.

A ghostly apparition took this punch head-on and was immediately shattered by the Buddha’s light and force, turning into a sky full of ghostly qi.

Seeing that the Buddha’s light seemed to be transcending the ghostly qi, Jiang Chen quickly took out the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring to absorb it.

He repeated this process up to a hundred times.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After several hours, not only were all the ghostly apparitions on the ninth floor of the Ghost Tower annihilated, but even the ghostly qi that had accumulated over the years had completely disappeared.

From beginning to end, Lin Mubai just watched, his will to fight completely gone.

It wasn’t until Jiang Chen put away the ghost crystal and prepared to head to the eighth floor that he asked in confusion, “Eldest Senior Brother, did you come to save me?”

Jiang Chen ignored him.

“Wuu~ It must be so! Eldest Senior Brother, I’m so moved…” Lin Mubai immediately burst into tears.

The two of them, one after the other, went to the other floors of the Ghost Tower.

…….

Several hours later.

Jiang Chen walked out of the Ghost Tower with Lin Mubai.

“Haha! Young Master is awesome!” Chen Sheng saw this and laughed so hard he couldn’t close his mouth.

Xiao Hongyi nodded and also gave an approving look.

In contrast, Tu Zheng and the others from the Ghost Controlling Sect had faces uglier than if they had eaten excrement.

Because the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring had absorbed all the ghostly qi and ghostly apparitions inside the Ghost Tower, the tower was now dim and without light.

This meant the Ghost Tower was ruined!

Unless they captured thousands of ghostly apparitions again, the tower would be nothing more than a shell, unable to serve its purpose of training the sect’s disciples.

Tu Zheng had never imagined that Jiang Chen would be such trouble and cause such a disaster for the Ghost Controlling Sect.

It had only been a few days since his arrival, and he had turned the Ghost Controlling Sect upside down, and now he had even ruined the Ghost Tower.

If he had known this would happen, he would have stopped it no matter what when the Old Ancestor said she wanted Jiang Chen to stay as a guest.

But now it was too late for regrets.

Tu Zheng and the others were silent. Their eyes were sometimes filled with ferocity, sometimes furrowed in worry.

They wanted Jiang Chen to leave half of the Ghost Crystal of the Secluded Spring.

After all, this item was able to break through to a ninth-grade spiritual treasure because it absorbed the ghostly qi and specters from the Ghost Tower.

But they also knew that with Jiang Chen’s personality, he would never agree.

When the time came, there would inevitably be a war of arguments and even the risk of a big fight.

Helplessly, Tu Zheng could only call out to the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor in his heart.

He hoped the Old Ancestor would step in to mitigate the losses of the sect.

But the response he got was: “This loss is all because of you. You solve it yourself!”

Undoubtedly, the current Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor still didn’t want to fall out with Jiang Chen.

This was almost enough to make Tu Zheng cry.

How could he bear such a huge loss?

Even selling himself wouldn’t cover it!
