If it weren't for the fact that this guy's background was rather unusual and seemed to involve the Ghost Buddha, Chu Jiang would have slapped him to death long ago.

This monk was completely devoid of morality, mistaking ghosts for Buddhas, and even believing himself to be a victim of persecution; he was nothing but a menace in his life.

......

Chu Jiang glanced at Xin Xin's side again, and then he was speechless.

Xin Xin was clearly not using her full strength yet; she was just dealing with Li Xiangtian, who was holding the mysterious oil lamp.

Of course, Li Xiangtian didn't go all out, because not only were there people outside the Ghost Realm eyeing him, but Chu Jiang's side had also freed up resources.

If Li Xiangtian and Xin Xin fight to the death, even if Li Xiangtian wins a Pyrrhic victory, the outcome will not change.

It's worth mentioning that Wu Fangfang has been sent out of the Ghost Realm. Thanks to Xin Xin's special protection of her, she has created room for the four Ghost Masters who control the Ghost Realm to operate.

At this moment, Li Xiangtian looked less and less like a human being.

He wore a black umbrella over his head, his eyes were bloodshot, and the veins around his eyes had spread across his entire face; his heart was wide open, and inside, a little demon was gnawing at his flesh while using its right hand to trace a bloody human shape in the air.

The silhouette looks very similar to Xin Xin's...

Glancing at Chu Jiang's side, Li Xiangtian, who had caught his breath, prepared to repeat his old trick, once again having the Slow Ghost slow down all the enemies and having the little ghost lead the way to escape.

But before that, he must first get rid of Xinxin, who is already on guard, and at least create some distance between them in order to have a chance of success.

“I’ll take over,” Chu Jiang floated over in this direction, and at the same time he looked at Li Xiangtian, “I’ll give you a chance to fight me one-on-one.”

Although Li Xiangtian had no desire to fight the other party one-on-one, he still asked on the surface, "If I win, will you let me go?"

Chu Jiang shook his head. "If you win, it proves you're stronger than me. Then Xin Xin will kill you. You have no chance of leaving here alive today."

Chu Jiang proposed this one-on-one duel simply to fulfill his promise to Xin Xin. Xin Xin had stalled the others, and now it was his turn to finish things off.

Moreover, he has rarely fought one-on-one with ghost masters throughout his growth, and he also wants to see how he can perform against the world's top ghost masters.

"Don't force me. If you really don't give me a way out, then you will see just how terrifying a fully resurrected Ghost Master can be!" Li Xiangtian's face was extremely gloomy.

His plans were completely disrupted; his opponent was playing by no means conventional. If there was truly no way out, he would have no choice but to sacrifice his own life and fight to the death with his opponent.

For a demon master, their peak fighting power is never when they are still alive, but rather at the moment when they are about to die, yet have not yet truly died.

Normally, demon masters suppress the power of the demons within them, fearing that the demons might disrupt the balance and revive within them.

But when they are about to die, they won't care about such things anymore; they will frantically extract the power of the demons and unleash 150% or even 200% of their usual strength.

Although this process is very brief, once the demon master's consciousness is completely extinguished, all that remains is for the demon to act on its instincts and kill. However, demon masters often try to prevent their opponents from entering this state.

Upon hearing Li Xiangtian's threat, Chu Jiang became completely certain that the other party was still following the old path of balance, unable to overcome the flaws inherent in this path.

Chu Jiang himself didn't say anything, but judging from Xin Xin's appearance, she seemed to be someone who had also embarked on a special path.

From beginning to end, all Xin Xin displayed was the power of that [Grim Reaper].

However, her body did not seem to bear too much burden; at least during the battle, she did not show obvious signs of pain, nor was her body eroded beyond recognition.

Going back further, Zhang Yibiao's body was also severely corrupted by the ghost, to the point that almost no flesh and blood remained.

This made Chu Jiang vaguely realize that there was a clear dividing line between the first-class and top-tier ghost masters at that time.

That is, no matter which path one takes, top-tier ghost masters can at least to some extent use the power of the ghost within them without worrying about the resurgence of vengeful spirits, even though the hidden dangers still exist in the long run.

First-rate ghost masters, no matter how many ghosts they have inside them, or how terrifying the vengeful ghosts they control, can only unleash their full combat power at the moment when their lives are completely extinguished. This is where they fall short of top-tier ghost masters.

Chapter 315 The Death of Li Xiangtian

Xin Xin nodded to Chu Jiang, then lightly stepped aside, seemingly wanting to see just how much Chu Jiang could actually do.

But in that instant when Xin Xin retreated and Chu Jiang advanced, Li Xiangtian activated the Slow Ghost ability again.

This time, Li Xiangtian was clearly going all out. The invisible supernatural power spread out, first affecting Chu Jiang, then Xin Xin, and even affecting everything in the Ghost Realm!

Then the little devil in his heart swallowed the blood figure he had previously drawn into his stomach.

Once this action is completed, Xin Xin should be cursed, and the little ghost will even parasitize Xin Xin's stomach, which will allow the little ghost to obtain a part of the mother's power.

But as soon as the curse was formed, before the little devil could be transferred, the illusory Grim Reaper behind Xin Xin gently swung his scythe.

This slash seemed to have severed some invisible thread, so Xin Xin was completely unharmed, only staring at Li Xiangtian expressionlessly.

This made Li Xiangtian's face even uglier. Why did it have to be these two captains who came? They were both more difficult to deal with than the other.

This was the first time he had encountered a situation where the curse failed, meaning that all his previous preparations had been in vain.

However, the situation was urgent, and Li Xiangtian had no time to regret it. The little ghost jumped off him again and began to escape, stepping on the bloody footprints.

If the kid could have obtained a portion of the Grim Reaper's power and escaped with Li Xiangtian, his chances of winning would have been much higher, but now he has to go back to the old methods.

......

This was the first time Chu Jiang had personally experienced this kind of slowing power. He could feel that it had nothing to do with the flow of time; it was simply some kind of strange power acting on his body and mind.

Looking at the fleeing Li Xiangtian, Chu Jiang slightly raised his left hand, intending to let countless dark left hands emerge from Li Xiangtian's body.

It's worth mentioning that although Chu Jiang's speed was somewhat slow, it wasn't as slow as that of a ghost master who controls the ghost realm, who even takes several seconds to blink.

This is because Chu Jiang himself has the ability to fight against supernatural phenomena. Although Li Xiangtian has pushed his abilities to the limit, to the point that veins are bulging all over his body, it still has limited effect on Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang's attack at this moment was a fatal blow to the Ghost Master, who still needed to rely on his body to survive.

To his slight surprise, the black hand was unable to emerge from the darkness within Li Xiangtian's body.

This seems to be because the umbrella ghost on Li Xiangtian's body is providing protection; the umbrella has been growing on his head like a mushroom.

The protective space created by Li Xiangtian, though not a ghost domain, is stronger than an ordinary ghost domain in some respects. It was even able to withstand Chu Zhan's power for a period of time.

So Chu Jiang changed his approach. As soon as he had a thought, countless black hands emerged from the shadows around Li Xiangtian, and blood began to flow from the palms of each hand.

Bloody hands slapped at Li Xiangtian, but failed to leave any bloody handprints on him, which meant that the Blood Hand Ghost's method of killing was ineffective.

But at the same time, with a series of sharp, bloody handprints, clear and distinct, appeared on the black umbrella above Li Xiangtian's head.

These handprints, densely packed and constantly overlapping, will probably shatter the umbrella in no time.

That's not all. Through the contact between the Black Hand and the Umbrella Ghost, Chu Jiang silently made a mark on it...

Li Xiangtian did not notice the mark. He did not want to get entangled with Chu Jiang, but if this offensive continued, the umbrella ghost would definitely not be able to hold on. He turned around with difficulty, raised the oil lamp and blew a breath at Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of extreme danger as if he were about to die. He immediately pulled out... a wooden door? from his left hand, and then disappeared into the doorway.

At the very moment Chu Jiang disappeared, the dark green oil lamp was extinguished by Li Xiangtian almost simultaneously.

But just as it was about to be completely extinguished, the last bit of light on the wick suddenly reignited, because the target had been lost and the ability had failed to activate.

This lamp, which Li Xiangtian calls the "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp," has a deadly effect of "the lamp goes out when a person dies." As long as it is pointed directly at a living person and the lamp is blown out, that person will die instantly.

However, at the same time, Li Xiangtian had to ensure that the oil lamp would not go out accidentally while holding it.

If the oil lamp hadn't been extinguished because he used it to kill someone, Li Xiangtian himself would have died suddenly as well.

Therefore, Li Xiangtian was still quite wary of Xinxin, who was capable of creating accidents.

Fortunately, so far, the accidental deaths caused by the other party have affected the size of the oil lamp's flame, but have not yet extinguished the lamp.

Chu Jiang, who hid behind the door, relied on the power of the "Door-Opening Ghost" from the Ghost Diary. Before the door was destroyed, he could ignore many types of supernatural harm.

So after leaving the gloomy castle last time, Chu Jiang made a bunch of doors and threw them into the dark space on his left, which came in handy this time.

At the same time, Chu Jiang hadn't expected Li Xiangtian to have such a trump card.

Looking at it this way, the opponent currently possesses three ghosts: the Umbrella Ghost, the Slow Ghost, and the Dead Infant Ghost. Each of the three ghosts has different abilities.

The little devil was particularly special, seemingly possessing several abilities; coupled with the strange oil lamp in Li Xiangtian's hand, he was indeed invincible in battle, able to withstand attacks, fight, and escape.

Although he was thinking, Chu Jiang was quick to act. He "saw" the oil lamp being relit and immediately came out; if he hid any longer, the person would escape.

In fact, when Chu Jiang emerged from the slowly falling wooden door, the little ghost had already run into another supernatural space, just like before, and Li Xiangtian quickly followed along the bloody footprints.

Moreover, he has now switched to running backwards, preparing to use the Ghost Blows Out the Lamp to forcibly interrupt Chu Jiang's absorption of the Buddhist kingdom when Chu Jiang transforms into the Ghost Buddha and repeats his old trick.

Chu Jiang naturally wouldn't use the same trick again, and he didn't intend to drag it out any longer; he wanted to finish the battle quickly.

If Chu Jiang now has the ability to control life and death, he should be able to bypass the umbrella ghost's protection and directly affect Li Xiangtian, just like Xin Xin did.

Unfortunately, it is not yet available.

But it didn't matter. Just as Li Xiangtian was on the verge of a breakdown, Chu Jiang reached out and gently patted him from a distance.

Li Xiangtian immediately blew out the lamp, regardless of whether Chu Jiang had transformed into a ghost Buddha; Chu Jiang then pulled out another door and went inside, but blowing out the lamp was ineffective.

But at the same moment, the last bit of light left on the wick did not reignite! It went out completely.

Li Xiangtian was stunned. What was going on?

He wasn't surprised that the lights went out, but rather that someone seemed to tap him on the back.

This was also Li Xiangtian's last question. His eyes gradually emptied, his consciousness rapidly fading away. Just one step away from retreating into another space, he plummeted from the sky to the ground.

Li Xiangtian died, and even in his death, his eyes still held deep doubt and confusion.

Chapter 316 The Power of the White Tiger

Seeing this, Chu Jiang calmly came out of the door and said softly, "I'm sorry, I didn't get to see just how terrifying you were when you were fully recovered."

At the moment of Li Xiangtian's bizarre death, many people closely watching the battle from the sidelines were stunned. He's dead? How did he die?!

From their perspective, Chu Jiang simply waved his hand, and then Li Xiangtian, who had not suffered any external harm before, suddenly died.

Only Xin Xin's eyes showed a strange look. She looked at Li Xiangtian's falling corpse, and there was a bright red bloody handprint on the back of the corpse!

Yes, Chu Jiang's method of killing was very simple: he superimposed the Blood Hand Ghost's bloody handprint onto the Left Hand Ghost's clone and slapped Li Xiangtian to death.

Of course, that's not the key point. The key point is how Chu Jiang broke through the umbrella ghost, which had no blind spots in its defenses.

If the Umbrella Ghost can't hold on under extreme conditions, Li Xiangtian has other plans to deal with Chu Jiang's attack.

On the contrary, the umbrella ghost did not collapse. It simply opened a path for Chu Jiang the moment he made his move, which was the most fatal thing!

Xin Xin looked at Li Xiangtian's shattered corpse. The Umbrella Ghost and the Slow Ghost had both retreated back into the corpse and were temporarily motionless.

With their host dead, they have now officially entered a state of uncontrolled resurgence. Of course, it will take some time before they are fully revived; if things go smoothly, two ghosts will emerge in a few minutes, and if things go slowly, it will take more than ten minutes.
