God-Tier Providence System
Chapter 269
Just as Alex was staring in a daze, the Devouring Yin Ghost suddenly opened its bloody maw and let out a fierce roar at him, seemingly as a show of force.
Only then did he snap back to his senses. He directly waved his hand, tossing the two Ghost Servant Contracts into mid-air.
Compared to the Devouring Yin Ghost’s massive body, the Ghost Servant Contracts were as tiny as grains of sand. However, the instant they flew to their highest point, the contracts suddenly transformed into black light and fused into the Devouring Yin Ghost’s forehead.
After absorbing the Ghost Servant Contracts, the originally irritable Devouring Yin Ghost instantly settled down as if hit with a tranquilizer.
It obediently knelt on one knee and lowered its forehead toward Alex, expressing its submission.
"Very good." Alex nodded with a satisfied smile, secretly pondering that this Ghost Servant Contract was indeed miraculous. It was not in vain to expend so much spiritual energy just to refine one.
Immediately, he leapt up, landing on top of the Devouring Yin Ghost’s head. Then he casually waved his hand and said loudly.
"Heh, with a bodyguard to escort and protect me, even if the mountain is full of vicious ghosts, what can they do to me? Let’s go, take me to sweep through the Hundred Ghost Mountain Range!"
The Devouring Yin Ghost let out a fierce howl, then carried Alex as it stepped onto the path up the mountain.
The moment he stepped into the Hundred Ghost Mountain Range, Alex felt a chilling coldness pierce through from the top of his head down to his marrow. Of course, compared to the heavy yin qi on the Devouring Yin Ghost’s body, the yin qi in the mountain range was essentially not worth mentioning.
As Alex was looking around, suddenly over a hundred malicious ghosts appeared from the black mist, surrounding them tightly.
The malicious ghosts had sniffed the aura of yang energy and rushed out impatiently, wanting to gorge themselves on a hearty meal.
As a result, upon showing themselves, they saw this unfamiliar, massive fellow kind, and instantly every single one was dumbfounded.
The Devouring Yin Ghost let out a fierce roar, instantly intimidating this group of little ghosts so much that the black mist on their bodies trembled, their ghost hearts nearly shattering.
Seeing this, Alex couldn’t help but smile with deep interest. "Heh, with your meager cultivation, you dare to covet my yang energy? Come, let’s see who eats who today! Devouring Yin, swallow them!"
The red light in the Devouring Yin Ghost’s eyes flared. The hundreds of eyeballs on its body elongated and floated out, transforming into bloody maws.
The surrounding little ghosts only then realized something was wrong. They wanted to flee, but it was already too late.
From the bloody maws, a terrifying suction force like a black hole radiated outwards.
In the blink of an eye, the over a hundred little ghosts with Enlightenment Realm cultivation were entirely sucked inside, swallowed and turned into nutrients.
Standing on the Devouring Yin Ghost’s body, even Alex felt that formidable suction force like a storm, secretly clicking his tongue in amazement. "Truly worthy of being a Supreme Realm great ghost with the ability to devour ghosts. This move, Yin Devouring Ghost Swallow, is truly incredible..."
Just like its name, the Devouring Yin Ghost’s strongest and only ability was to unrestrainedly devour ghosts and yin qi.
The more ghosts it devoured, the more eyeballs would grow on its body, and its cultivation would correspondingly grow stronger. For this Devouring Yin Ghost to reach the Eighth Level of the Supreme Realm proved it had already devoured at least hundreds of thousands of malicious ghosts.
At first glance, Alex didn’t think there was anything wrong.
But thinking carefully, if applied to humans, it was a bit terrifying when pondered deeply. For a malicious ghost to rely on devouring other ghosts to increase its cultivation sounded quite reasonable.
But translated to humans, that would be equivalent to a cultivator relying on eating the flesh of other cultivators to increase their cultivation.
Even if Alex boasted that he was already a qualified villainous Great Saint Lord who never hesitated to use any means necessary, if someone told him he could break through to the Saint Realm by eating human flesh, he absolutely wouldn’t consider it.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t get over it morally, but primarily that he found it disgusting and simply couldn’t stomach it.
Just as Alex was leading the Devouring Yin Ghost, initiating a massive massacre along the way and devouring out a path of blood toward the mountain peak, the storage ring on his finger suddenly trembled slightly, letting out a burst of anxious meowing sounds.
Alex froze slightly and let Pearl out of the storage ring. Pearl jumped onto his shoulder, crying out eagerly. It seemed like a veteran little foodie, questioning Alex: Why didn’t you bring me when eating delicious food?
"Almost forgot, you foodie also likes to devour yin qi." Alex instantly couldn’t help but laugh.
"Alright, since that’s the case, the two of you can enjoy this delicious meal together. It’s rare to have such an opportunity today, so you two just open your stomachs wide and properly satisfy your cravings!"
Immediately, the one human, one ghost, and one cat headed toward the mountain peak in a mighty and majestic manner.
Along this journey, it was a scene of harmonious joy, without the slightest sense of tension or crisis.
The Hundred Ghost Mountain Range, a forbidden zone for the living, was directly treated as an all-you-can-eat buffet by Pearl and the Devouring Yin Ghost.
Of course, the main bulk was enjoyed by the Devouring Yin Ghost.
And Pearl, merely eating some of the Devouring Yin Ghost’s leftovers, was already extremely satisfied. Seeing these two brothers getting higher and higher the more they ate, the Devouring Yin Ghost, in order to enjoy a bit more, even started taking detours, specifically running to places where ghosts were densely clustered.
Alex’s old face turned black. He stomped his foot on top of the Devouring Yin Ghost’s head and scolded grumpily. "I traveled all the way to this ghostly place to save someone, alright? Did you really think I brought you here to eat at a buffet?!"
