Chapter 2301: Chapter 1798: Battle with Ghostfire (Double-Length)

The key point was that his fireball, after various augments, was already no weaker than a standard advanced technique, yet several of it were swallowed, which was truly unbelievable!

At this moment, he had the urge to tame the ghost fire with his groin; leaving it in the territory as a guard dog could definitely have miraculous effects!

Of course, the premise was that the ghost fire was non-aggressive; only then would he have the courage to approach it, but that possibility was almost zero.

Just as Su Ran was lost in his wild thoughts, a mutation suddenly occurred.

The ghost fire absorbed the energy of the fireball, becoming red-hot, while the other two ghost fires seemed to be attracted and merged together, rapidly spinning.

"Overturning Water, what’s happening?"

Little Cream exclaimed in surprise, "This ghost fire is acting strange, we must stop it!"

"I’ll try."

Su Ran looked seriously at the rapidly spinning ghost fire, already sensing something was wrong. Even if Little Cream didn’t mention it, he would still stop the ghost fire’s mutation process. He resolutely used the special skill [Ice Vortex] from his Ice Crystal Bone Scythe, aiming directly at the unpredictable ghost fire, as interrupting its path was the only possible solution!

(Ice Vortex—Summons an ice vortex centered on oneself, attacking all targets within a 5X5 distance, with a certain chance of causing a freezing state, dealing 80% of maximum attack damage. The freezing state lasts 1-3 seconds, with a cooldown time of 10 minutes.)

"Swish, swish, swish~!"

The ice vortex whipped into action, getting faster and wider, soon enveloping the ghost fire and lifting it into the sky.

Seeing this, Su Ran felt relieved. Luckily, the ghost fire did not absorb the ice vortex; had it done so, he wouldn’t have known how to deal with it. It proved that choosing the ice vortex was just right!

However, the joy was short-lived. The vortex dissipated, and the ghost fire floated gently down, with no freezing triggered or any damage caused. This meant the vortex had been busy for nothing.

The ghost fire hovered mid-air, its flames burning more vigorously, and its size grew quickly to the size of a furnace, with a temperature almost as intense as the previous great stove.

"Strange!"

Su Ran initially thought that even if the ice vortex couldn’t harm the ghost fire, it would at least stop its mutation. Unexpectedly, the ice vortex served as a catalyst, making the ghost fire burn even fiercer, slightly beyond his expectation.

"I just don’t believe it, how much more can you absorb!"

In Su Ran’s view, water and fire were incompatible, and the ice vortex contained relatively little ice element, which led to its ineffectiveness. He no longer hesitated and conjured an ice arrow, throwing it over.

This ice arrow was a skill inherent to the Ice Jewel, possessing a freezing effect. If the ghost fire could be frozen, it would be perfect.

Unfortunately, the system didn’t give Su Ran the chance to turn the tide. As soon as the ice arrow hit the ghost fire, it exploded on the spot, countless flames falling into the pile of skulls and disappearing.

"Is it over?"

Little Cream could hardly believe it was real. With such a grand entrance, the ghost fire couldn’t possibly end so hurriedly; it seemed too anticlimactic. Things shouldn’t be so simple!

"Something’s wrong!"

Su Ran already sensed the scorching heat coming from below; such a change was definitely abnormal!

Suddenly.

A wave of fire erupted, blasting countless skulls into the air. The skulls were like cannonballs, shooting powerfully in all directions. Seeing no way to avoid them, Su Ran chose to brace himself, stacking the Sand Shield and Ice Shield to ward off the incoming skulls.

[Ice Shield]—Upon activation, forms an ice shield, automatically levitating for defense. Defense +200, with a certain chance to completely block damage. Duration: 3 minutes, cooldown: 10 minutes.

[Sand Control] (Sand’s Secret) LV2

Utilizing sand as a medium, forms a sand barrier with Defense +100, with a certain chance to completely resist physical attacks. Duration: 5 minutes, skill cooldown: 15 minutes.

The appearance of these two defensive skills meant he gained 300 defense out of nowhere, and there was a chance to completely block attacks. Even if the skulls had formidable destructive power, they shouldn’t be able to kill him instantly!

Luckily, he gambled right.

The skulls, hard as rocks, kept crashing against the two shields but did not inflict any fatal damage, which he managed to endure.

Little Cream had a Firebird as a shield. Being far away, she was not threatened by the skulls. The Firebird’s health hadn’t dropped below half before the skulls settled down and stopped their rampage.

Su Ran pulled out a handful of grave grass, directly stuffing it into his mouth to restore his lost health, fearing another wave. His body couldn’t withstand destruction. Only by replenishing his health did he have the courage to resist.

"Overturning Water, look quickly!"

While Su Ran was replenishing his health, Little Cream’s exclamation sounded in his ear. Looking down instinctively, he was stunned.

He saw the ghost fire floating slowly, with countless skulls gathering around it, forming a four or five-meter-high large skull, flying toward Su Ran.

"Damn it, is it not over?!"

Su Ran retreated repeatedly, trying to distance himself from the large skull, while brewing water spells, an overwhelming flood.

In this situation, he couldn’t choose Netherworld Purple Fire. The fire element energy would boost the ghost fire’s flame force, which he didn’t wish to see. He could only use water skills to weaken the ghost fire’s power and disperse these gathered skulls. The [Overturning Waves] move was perfect for this!

"Swoosh~!"

The tide transformed into a gigantic hand, reaching for the skull head, the rushing water directly pressing it to the ground, wave after wave brushing the head, causing it to show signs of breaking apart.

"Again!"

Su Ran wouldn’t give the ghost fire a chance to strike back. Activating the [Time Rewind] skill, another wave materialized, once again targeting the skull head.

"Boom!"

How could the skull withstand it? It shattered on the spot, exposing the ghost fire within. The ghost fire rose swiftly, intending to avoid the incoming wave.

"Trying to escape?! Get down here!"

Su Ran wouldn’t give the ghost fire a chance to flee, directly using the [Thousand-Mile Ice Seal] skill. This skill covers a 5X5 attack range, has a freezing effect far stronger than the ice arrow, and ignores defense. He reckoned it could cause the ghost fire some trouble, though whether it could kill the ghost fire, he didn’t have much hope.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Ice crystals quickly spread, soon covering the ghost fire and forming a thin layer of ice on its surface. Shortly after, the ghost fire lost its mobility, dropping straight to the ground.

"Beautiful, it’s frozen!"

Su Ran was overjoyed, prepared to continue using ice arrows to chip away at the ghost fire’s health. Just then, Little Cream, too, took action, raising a hand to cast a Blood Curtain Seal.

"Overturning Water, I’ve trapped it, quickly..."

Before Little Cream could finish her sentence, her voice cut off abruptly. In disbelief at the sight before her, she exclaimed, "Trouble, the blood curtain was absorbed by it!"

"Little Cream, you’re just making trouble for me on purpose, aren’t you?!"

Su Ran was beyond frustrated. Although Little Cream was a Blood Curse Master, she transitioned from the fire mage profession, and every skill carried fire elements. It would be strange if they weren’t absorbed by the ghost fire!

Great, the favorable situation that had just emerged crumbled into ruins...

"Ah?"

Little Cream only then realized her mistake. Her clever maneuver backfired. She intended to trap the ghost fire, but inadvertently aided it. Had she known it would end up like this, she wouldn’t have offered help!

"This is troublesome now."

Seeing the ghost fire showing signs of consolidating the skulls again, Su Ran felt it was tricky. His water skills were exhausted, all on cooldown. Only the ice arrow remained, lacking enough power to have a fatal effect, but he couldn’t let the ghost fire succeed in reassembling; he had to interrupt it!

Oh right!

Soul Crushing!
