Chapter 339 A trivial matter, not worth mentioning.
by AshPurgatory2025Si Yan was not planning to destroy the incomplete body, but rather to keep it for now to see if it had any use.
Destroying this incomplete body wouldn’t be easy, and rashly destroying it also carried risks.
Because this incomplete body was also covered in wounds.
Within these wounds was a strange power, similar to when the forbidden item Si Yan suppressed in his Heart of the Demon King was activated.
This should be the “forbidden” power that the Vampire Saint Emperor mentioned.
It was a power from the forbidden level.
If Si Yan hadn’t come into contact with a forbidden item before, he wouldn’t have been able to sense it at all.
Looking at it this way, this Ancestor Ghost was indeed killed by a forbidden existence.
And it wasn’t over after his death; the lingering power of the forbidden existence left the Ancestor Ghost still heavily wounded even after he was resurrected.
Si Yan’s Demon King Power instantly activated, covering this incomplete body, and then he threw the Ancestor Ghost’s incomplete body into his ghoul brocade bag.
If it were a Gui Creature, it naturally couldn’t be thrown into the ghoul brocade bag.
But this incomplete body was already akin to a corpse, which Si Yan could take away, though it took up a lot of space, so he couldn’t take too many.
Even if an ordinary player could take it, who would take the corpse of a Gui Creature?
And one that was an evil ghost capable of resurrection.
“Human, no matter where you go, I will definitely kill you!”
The Ancestor Ghost, unable to sense his incomplete body, glared at Si Yan with eyes spitting fire.
“Is that so? I’ll wait for you.”
Si Yan gave a provocative look, infuriating the Ancestor Ghost.
But he had no way to deal with Si Yan.
The Necromancer Queen’s offensive remained fierce.
And it was even fiercer than before!
She seemed intent on taking advantage of the Ancestor Ghost’s severe injuries to finish him off.
“Damn it!”
The Ancestor Ghost spat out another large mouthful of blood, the blood-red glow in his eyes surged, and his extremely bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at Si Yan.
The next second.
Si Yan felt an extremely malicious curse envelop him.
Si Yan immediately felt an extreme pain, as if ten thousand insects were gnawing at his heart, or as if all his organs had been poisoned.
Good gracious!
The Ancestor Ghost directly paid a price, intending to curse Si Yan to death!
Unfortunately, his plan backfired again.
Against this kind of direct offensive curse, Si Yan’s incredibly high curse resistance instantly took effect.
Moreover, Si Yan was currently in a berserk state.
His curse resistance also received a bonus.
However, the bonus calculation was not by percentage, but by curse points.
The further one progressed, the more curse points were needed to increase curse resistance by 1%.
Even so, Si Yan’s current curse resistance exceeded 80%.
The power of the curse was immediately reduced by more than half.
Si Yan’s dispel skill activated instantly.
The Ancestor Ghost’s curse was quickly dispelled by Si Yan.
“Sir, quickly drink my blood, this is the Ten Thousand Poisons Curse!”
Beside him, the Vampire Saint Emperor’s voice rang out.
“Si Yan, watch out for his curse!”
Yu Jinqing’s voice also sounded.
They both recognized the potency of the Ancestor Ghost’s curse.
“Die!”
The Ancestor Ghost revealed a cruel smile.
But very quickly, the Ancestor Ghost was dumbfounded.
Because Si Yan was actually unharmed, with no sign of dying on him.
His curse was incredibly venomous, and as someone above a Ghost Saint, he had even paid a price for it.
Even if he wasn’t a Gui Creature specialized in curses, such a curse would be unbearable even for a Prince-level existence.
They would perish in at most one or two minutes.
But Si Yan showed no reaction!
It was as if he hadn’t been cursed at all!
How could this be!?!
“Your Majesty, take them down!”
Si Yan had already spoken, pointing at the other evil ghosts.
“Sir, are you alright?”
The Vampire Saint Emperor was still concerned about Si Yan’s safety.
Si Yan’s significance to the Vampire Saint Emperor was now immense.
Si Yan was actually able to resolve the golden symbols that appeared after a failed ascension!
This meant that if the Vampire Saint Emperor wanted to ascend again in the future, he would have an extra layer of insurance.
Therefore, the Vampire Saint Emperor now placed extraordinary importance on Si Yan’s safety.
“I’m fine, it’s just a mere curse.”
Si Yan said indifferently.
A mere curse!?!
The Vampire Saint Emperor wanted to say that it was a curse for which the Ancestor Ghost had paid no small price.
However, recalling Si Yan’s miraculous abilities, the Vampire Saint Emperor couldn’t help but feel admiration for Si Yan.
“Sir is brilliant!”
After the Vampire Saint Emperor finished speaking, he suddenly attacked an evil ghost.
That evil ghost was in a fierce battle with several Ghost Saint-level players.
Before he could even react, his neck was snapped by the Vampire Saint Emperor.
This fellow didn’t die; the Vampire Saint Emperor delivered another blow, severely injuring him.
Immediately after, several other Ghost Saint-level evil ghosts were all driven away by the Vampire Saint Emperor.
As soon as he drove away those evil ghosts, the Vampire Saint Emperor rushed into the sky, attacking the Ancestor Ghost.
“Retreat!!!”
Although the Ancestor Ghost desperately wanted to kill Si Yan, under the full assault of the Necromancer Queen, he and Yin Kui were even struggling against the Necromancer Queen.
Moreover, he had already expended a great deal of energy in the previous battle and couldn’t last much longer.
If he continued fighting, his body would start to have problems.
Once he was fully resurrected, he could indeed become extremely powerful.
But having only completed two resurrections now, the drawbacks were still significant.
The Ancestor Ghost glared fiercely at Si Yan and began to retreat continuously.
Seeing him retreat, the evil ghost Yin Kui also retreated.
As they retreated, the endless stream of evil ghosts rushing towards this graveyard also began to frantically retreat.
Watching these evil ghosts retreat, the Necromancer Queen did not pursue.
She put away her scythe, then her cold gaze turned towards Si Yan.
The Ancestor Ghost’s resurrection had been disrupted.
Now, it seemed to be Si Yan’s turn to settle accounts.
The Vampire Saint Emperor had already returned to stand in front of Si Yan, vigilantly watching the Necromancer Queen.
Seeing this stance, Yu Jinqing and the other Ghost Saint-level players, who had just over a minute left, also came to stand behind Si Yan.
The atmosphere in the graveyard once again became tense!
The Necromancer Queen’s gaze swept past the Vampire Saint Emperor and fixed on Si Yan.
Beneath her cloak, two faint ghost fires burned.
On her two sides, a vast Undead Legion covered the entire sky.
Two Death Spirit Monarchs, holding massive scythes, guarded her on either side.
In this state, the Necromancer Queen looked exceptionally majestic.
The Vampire Saint Emperor’s gaze had become quite wary.
Because during the recent battle, the Vampire Saint Emperor had already sensed that the Necromancer Queen’s strength was very formidable.
The Vampire Saint Emperor had ascended many times.
But so far, he had only successfully ascended three times.
He had failed twice.
The first failure wasn’t too problematic, but it did cause him to slumber for several centuries.
The second failure, if not for Si Yan, he would have been finished.
But in the Vampire Saint Emperor’s perception, the Necromancer Queen was very likely an existence that had successfully ascended five or more times.
This could be seen from how the Necromancer Queen, fighting one against two, was still able to maintain her dominance.
However, the Necromancer Queen also expended a considerable amount of energy during the prolonged battle.
But even with significant expenditure, the Necromancer Queen was still very strong now.
“I’ll hold her off for a while, Sir, take the opportunity to leave.”
The Vampire Saint Emperor whispered to Si Yan.
“Si Yan, we only have a little over a minute left, use your reinforcement ticket. We’ll work together to help you block her for a bit.”
Yu Jinqing’s voice also sounded.
Si Yan didn’t respond, but instead looked at the Necromancer Queen.
The Necromancer Queen could stay here longer than the Vampire Saint Emperor.
She came through a curse.
It was equivalent to coming by her own power.
She didn’t use any items from the Horror Space, such as the token Si Yan used to summon the Vampire Saint Emperor.
So she was actually very little affected by the rules of the Horror Space.
In fact, if she didn’t plan to return to the Necromancer World within a short period, she could stay here indefinitely and then figure out a way to go back herself.
That would take a bit of time.
The passages between the Horror Space and the Necromancer World are not always open.
If she was unlucky, she might need several years to return.
Si Yan was not worried either.
The reinforcement ticket only needed two minutes to return.
Even if the Vampire Saint Emperor was no match for the Necromancer Queen, after the Necromancer Queen had fought for so long, it was impossible for him not to hold her off for two minutes.
In the Necromancer Queen’s eyes, ghost fire burned faintly.
No emotions could be discerned within them.
Her gaze gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.
It seemed as if she could launch a fatal blow at any moment.
Si Yan held the reinforcement ticket in his hand, but he didn’t use it.
His eyes met the Necromancer Queen’s eyes.
Instantly, the feeling of being formatted and completely transformed into an undead surged into his heart again.
However, Si Yan’s berserk state was still active, and his entire body was filled with Demon King Power, already capable of resisting the gaze from the Necromancer Queen.
The next second, a giant scythe was forming.
But immediately.
The Necromancer Queen’s body stiffened.
Because in Si Yan’s hand, the forbidden item that he had been suppressing in his Heart of the Demon King was once again brought out by Si Yan.
This forbidden item came from that Ghost Lord Level Ghost Master.
When Si Yan’s Demon King Power was removed, this forbidden item began to exert its power again.
This thing was originally isolated by the Demon King Power.
Now, however.
It was as if it had reconnected to the network.
“This is… a forbidden item!”
The Vampire Saint Emperor was also somewhat surprised.
He hadn’t expected Si Yan to have such a dangerous thing in his hands!
At this moment, this forbidden item was reasserting its power.
It would only take a few seconds for the forbidden item to be completely activated.
Si Yan, holding the forbidden item, looked at the Necromancer Queen as if unafraid of death.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
The special fluctuations emanating from the forbidden item became increasingly dangerous.
A chilling aura began to permeate the entire graveyard.
Everyone in the graveyard felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
The Necromancer Queen’s gaze grew increasingly dangerous.
Si Yan’s gaze was equally unyielding.
They stared at each other until the fifth second.
Finally, the Necromancer Queen’s hand moved, and the giant scythe disappeared.
Seeing this, Si Yan’s Demon King Power re-covered the forbidden item, isolating it once again.
In two more seconds, this forbidden item would have been fully activated.
After the Ghost Lord Level Ghost Master used all his ghost blood to activate the forbidden item, the Demon King Power could only isolate it, but had no way to eliminate it.
The Necromancer Queen gave Si Yan a deep look.
Then her hand moved, and a portal slowly opened.
She didn’t make another move.
Before the portal had even opened to its maximum, the Undead Legion had already rushed into it.
Finally, the two Death Spirit Monarchs entered.
After the two Death Spirit Monarchs left, the Necromancer Queen’s gaze lingered on Si Yan.
Then she turned her body and entered the portal, disappearing from sight.
Si Yan put away the forbidden item.
This forbidden item could only be used this one time.
Using it again next time would be too risky.
But at least it had forced the Necromancer Queen to retreat.
Seeing the Necromancer Queen leave, Yu Jinqing and the other players breathed a sigh of relief.
The Vampire Saint Emperor also breathed a sigh of relief.
The Necromancer Queen’s oppressive presence was too strong.
Even the Vampire Saint Emperor was somewhat unwilling to engage her in battle.
Yet, Si Yan dared to provoke such a Necromancer Queen, and even dared to use her!
“Si Yan.”
Yu Jinqing descended, slowly resuming her human form.
Behind her, the other players also descended.
“Greetings, Saint Emperor.”
Although Yu Jinqing had not met the Vampire Saint Emperor before, she bowed to him after landing.
The other players also bowed.
The Vampire Saint Emperor nodded slightly.
Then he clasped his hands behind his back, no longer paying attention to the other players.
From his demeanor, he was just waiting for the time to expire before leaving this place.
The Vampire Saint Emperor had no interest in conversing with the other players; his nod was merely out of the inherent politeness of a Vampire Noble.
“Si Yan, this trip was all thanks to you; otherwise, it would have been difficult to stop the Ancestor Ghost. This is my business card; feel free to ask me any questions you have in the future.”
Yu Jinqing looked at Si Yan with shining eyes and handed him a business card.
She had been very interested in Si Yan from early on.
However, she had been rebuffed twice by Si Yan at the beginning.
Later, Si Yan’s rocket-like growth also astonished Yu Jinqing.
But in recent months, she had been very busy, and Si Yan clearly didn’t want too much contact with the Kyushu Supernatural Bureau, so Yu Jinqing never had another chance to seek out Si Yan.
Now she finally had her chance.
Si Yan took the business card.
Previously, Si Yan had been unwilling to deal with them because his strength was still weak, and he didn’t want to be too passive or lose his autonomy.
Now that his strength had grown significantly.
It no longer mattered.
The other players also handed over their business cards, and Si Yan accepted them as well.
“Si Yan, we’re leaving. There are still a few hours left in this instance, and the evil ghosts might return, so be careful.”
After Yu Jinqing said another sentence, their allotted time was up.
Soon.
Yu Jinqing and several Ghost Saint-level players, along with Luo Yinuo, all left.
After using the reinforcement ticket, Luo Yinuo and her group also had no way to stay here.
There were still some players who hadn’t left; these were all those who couldn’t afford a return ticket.
There were also a few who could afford it, but seeing Si Yan still there, and with only a few hours left until the instance ended, they all wanted to ride on Si Yan’s coattails to complete this instance.
This instance offered a considerable amount of points.
“Your Majesty, I apologize for the trouble.”
Si Yan said to the Vampire Saint Emperor.
“No matter, I didn’t expect Sir to have a forbidden item. That forbidden item was about to activate, Sir, it’s best not to take it out again.”
The Vampire Saint Emperor said.
When Si Yan took out the forbidden item earlier, making it seem like he was going to perish together with the Necromancer Queen, it made the Vampire Saint Emperor quite nervous.
Fortunately, Si Yan put away the forbidden item in the end.
“Sir, I’ll keep an eye on the surroundings, and I’ll leave when the maximum time is up.”
The Vampire Saint Emperor said.
“Alright, thank you, Your Majesty.”
After Si Yan finished speaking, he walked towards the several Ghost Saint-level evil ghosts who had been beaten to a pulp. (End of chapter)
