Chapter 528 Gan Ji, the Mad Demon Lord 1

Chapter 528 - Gan Ji, the Mad Demon Lord (1)


"SLOTH CURSE!!"


Gan Ji shouted as he pointed his palm at Diaochan.


Medusa was ready for the curse attack. She covered her body with the same curse, absorbing the power from Gan Ji.


But as she did so, she lost track of the old demon.


"ENLIGHTENMENT!"


Liu Yang blessed Diaochan with her virtuous ability to increase her sense. At the same time, she blocked a strike from Gan Ji's cane with her steel spear.


*CLANK*


Gan Ji reappeared behind Diaochan and attacked her with his canes, but Liu Yang protected her partner by deflecting the canes.


The goddess candidate's arms were numb after the contact. Her eyes locked on Gan Ji's two canes, which were glowing in a strange purple light.


Gan Ji sneered at Liu Yang.


"CORROSIVE TOUCH!!"


The spear shaft that touched Gan Ji's canes melted. Within half a second, the aura-coated spear became two pieces of useless rods.


Liu Yang frowned in confusion. The aura around the spear sent feedback to her psych that this phenomenon was an enhanced curse from someone with a higher cultivation base than this 8-wing demon. However, this skill clearly belonged to Gan Ji.


One thing came to Liu Yang's mind.


System Skill!


Ordinary system skills created by reincarnators were usually harmless to immortals since they could simply envelop their bodies with their aura to neutralize the effect. Then, all skills would be rendered useless.


But that only applied to reincarnators without a cultivation base!


Once a cultivator got their hands on these skills, they could be a deadly weapon if they applied their forces into their abilities.


Attack skills, such as Qi Blast of Sun Fang or Homing Arrow of Hua Shi could inflict damage on immortals with the same or lower cultivation base.


The same was also true to disruption skills. Tong's signature skill, Time Stop, also fell into this category.


Then, there were enhancement skills or abilities that add a special characteristic to the user. Khan's True Strike almost killed Tong when they first fought.


And now, Gan Ji's Corrosion Touch was a buff type skill. It bestowed melting ability of his weapons.


Once his weapons touched any part of his opponents, he could activate it and make it dissolve into liquid.


Liu Yang tossed the spear away before the corrosion could reach her hands.


"Good reaction, little goddess. But this is just the beginning of despair! TIME STOP!!"


Liu Yang widened their eyes in shock when Gan Ji uttered the name of Tong's skill. As soon as the world lost its color, she found herself unable to move.


However, Liu Yang could still see and sense the surroundings. Still, she could break free from this time and space shackle if she exerted some strength.


Unfortunately, that would take her too long as the battle between 8-wing cultivators could be decided in a split second.


"KEHAHAHAHA! REMEMBER THIS SKILL!? GIVE MY REGARDS TO ZHANG TONG THAT I SAID THANK YOU!!"


Gan Ji teleported and reappeared in front of Liu Yang before she could regain her mobility. He swung his wooden canes at her.


But it seemed that he had forgotten someone.


Medusa's spear tip also appeared 2 centimeters left side of Gan Ji's neck. She thrust her spear forward as she had prepared for this kind of tactic.


Medusa had sparred with Tong many times, and she got used to dealing with this skill's effect.


Gan Ji sensed the incoming attack. He held back his strike and bent his body backward.


The spear grazed Gan Ji's neck.


*SWUA*


The spear left a one-centimeter deep cut, but it wasn't fatal enough to kill the old sage.


Medusa's eyes followed after Gan Ji's movement. She converted her energy into the spear, creating a red poleaxe-shaped aura covering of the spear.


An ordinary steel spear had become a flaming poleaxe!


Then, she swung it.


The glowing poleaxe chased after Gan Ji's head.


"QI BARRIER!!"


A blue dome manifested and blocked Medusa's strike.


*BOOM*


The sphere shield managed to stop the attack.


Gan Ji sneered as he thought that the system skills that Lilim had bestowed him were invincible, but what occurred afterward shocked him.


A system message warned him that he had just lost several millions of lifespan years.


Gan Ji was stunned by the sudden loss.


"HOW!?"


He didn't have enough time to read the skill description and the weakness of Sun Fang's former skill. Medusa expressionlessly hacked down and with her full force.


From Medusa's perspective, Gan Ji shouldn't have gotten his wings for very long. She estimated that he shouldn't have more than 10 to 20 million years of lifespan in him.


She aimed to deplete all lifespan that Gan Ji had. Once anyone ran out of their lifespan, they would die!


Gan Ji's brain reacted fast. By reflex, he canceled the skill and flew backward.


*WHOOSH*


The swing missed.


Still, Gan Ji believed that he had the upper hands. He smiled at Medusa to mock her.


"I praise you for your reflex. But how about this move? EXPLOSIVE CREATION!!"


It was a skill from an otherworlder, whom Tong had killed during his early days. One of them could create many modern grenades at once.


Gan Ji didn't create only just one or two bombs, but he summoned 100,000 grenades at once.


Green objects appeared everywhere in the sky, surrounding Gan Ji, Medusa, and Liu Yang. All of their pins had already been pulled out!


Gan Ji injected his power into all bombs, depleting most of his lifespan. Once they detonated, these enchanted weapons could even kill immortals with the strength of 8-wing or lower.


"HAHAHAHAHA!! TOO BAD, MY LADIES!! GO TO HELL!!"


Gan Ji's body faded into nothingness as he used another system skill to teleport away.


Time resumed again, but the grenades hadn't exploded yet.


This was where Gan Ji made a mistake. Modern grenades took 2-6 seconds to explode after the pins got pulled out.


Two seconds were enough for Medusa and Liu Yang to react. They flapped their wings hard and flew away from the area.


*BOOM*


*BOOM*


*BOOM*


Thunderous explosions created a massive cloud of black smoke and shrapnel.


Medusa and Liu Yang were separated, but they didn't let their guards down. Their god's sight caught the presence of Gan Ji in the area.


Gan Ji was using one of the otherworlder's skills, Concealment. It worked as if the user were a chameleon by blending the caster with the environment. As a result, his body became transparent and undetectable with naked eyes.


But his opponents were veteran demi-gods!


"THERE!!"


Liu Yang found Gan Ji first. She pulled out a pistol that Diaochan had given her and rapid-fired at the waving air behind her.


Gan Ji swatted the 15 consecutive bullets away with his cane and charged at Liu Yang.


"THE WEAKEST LINK IS YOU, MY LADY!! WRATH CURSE!! SLOTH CURSE!!"


"PATIENCE BLESSING!! CLEAR MIND!!"


Liu Yang dispelled the curses right away and dodged the cane strikes.


However, because she was distracted by the curses, her speed was slower than Gan Ji's by one breath.


"TRUE STRIKE!!"


Another skill enhanced Gan Ji's canes. This was a skill that Khan had used against Tong during their first encounter, which could ignore their opponent's all kind of defensive abilities.


*SWUA*


A cane slash grazed Liu Yang's clothes and left a deep cut on her chest.


Liu Yang's face paled as she knew what might come next.


"HAHAHA!! CORROSION TOU-!!"


Before Gan Ji could finish his sentence and activate his skill, Medusa's poleaxe spear cleaved Gan Ji's head and torso in half.


She reappeared behind the sage and ambushed him when his attention was on Liu Yang.


Although the attack connected, Medusa's face grimaced.


"YANG, RETREAT!!"


Liu Yang's hands pressed onto her wounds as she flew away at her full speed. Medusa also followed after her, acting as a rearguard.


The two severed pieces of Gan Ji's body detonated, which created another explosion larger than the previous one.


This time, it was another combination of system skills.


System Skill: Double Body!


System Skill: Necromancy: Corpse Explosion!


System Skill: Necromancy: Remote Soul Detonation


"Kahahaha! Nice reaction. You almost fell for it."


Gan Ji's transparent body revealed in the sky three kilometers away from the battle site. He observed Medusa and Liu Yang with his immortal sight until they got out of his reach.


In the previous battle after the grenade explosion, Gan Ji had created a duplicate body with the hidden soul of a native local. He planned to make it a suicide-bomb against either Liu Yang or Medusa. However, Medusa saw through his plan and dragged Liu Yang away before the Corrosive Touch or the soul detonation could claim their life.


Despite his failure, Gan Ji was satisfied with this battle result. He lost almost 10 million years of lifespan from the mistakes, but he managed to injure Liu Yang and hinder their movements for a while.


Still, Liu Yang could still self-heal and come back for another rematch. Gan Ji was still at a disadvantage against three 8-wing cultivators.


Moreover, more hidden cards, such as Sun Quan, Sun Shangxiang, and other generals were about to catch up with his cultivation strength. Gan Ji had to do something to overcome this difference in their firepower.


'It seems that I can't defeat them with normal means. Time to use extreme measures.'


Gan Ji returned to Guangling City, which was still under Sun Ce's control.


The city located north of Jianye, and it was one of the east coast cities. South of this place was the Yangtze River, where it connected to the China Sea.


While floating above Guangling City, Gan Ji flickered his fingers and activated Sun Fang's basic skill.


Qi Blast


Several energy balls floated before him.


"Your death will bring us victory. You all should be honored to be Goddess Lilim's sacrifices!"


Gan Ji threw the balls to the center of the town.


*BOOM*


A massive explosive flame devoured 300,000 lives in the city. The black mushroom cloud covered the sky as if it was mocking all mortals on earth.


Gan Ji cackled as he drew all newly born 300,000 souls to himself. Instead of letting them entering the reincarnation river of Lilim, he kept the souls for future use.


"More sacrificial lambs, Kekekeke!! Oh, I almost forgot…"


Gan Ji waited for the heat to subside and went back to the ruin of Guangling City. He stood at the center of this town and activated another system skill.


Necromancy: Undead Awakening


Necromancy: Bone Reconstruction


"Arise, my slaves! We have a war to fight! We have mortals to kill! We have a world to dominate!"


Burnt bodies and bones of dead townspeople gathered and mended into each other. 300,000 Soulless undead zombies and skeletons stood up.


They howled and screeched as if they wanted something to kill. Yet, they looked at Gan Ji, waiting for his command.


"We'll use this momentum! Go, my soldiers! We march west, and we shall kill every human we find! Leave none alive!!"
