The Game with Fairies

Chapter 103

“Um… brother, be honest. Did you find a female ghost behind our backs these past ten days?”

“She’s not coming to find you now, is she?”

Li Yuechan’s oddly emotional words rang out just as the wailing of the female ghost had faded, sending shivers down one’s spine.

Guan Xiaoshun instantly moved away from Li Muyang, filled with apprehension.

“Um… Brother Li, when that female ghost comes later, she won’t harm us, right?”

The simple boy from the border town, Guan Xiaoshun, like Li Muyang, was also a scaredy-cat when it came to ghosts.

Hearing that the female ghost might appear soon, Guan Xiaoshun immediately chickened out.

On being accused by the two, Li Muyang was momentarily speechless.

“We’ve all been together these ten days, how could I possibly have had the time to flirt with a female ghost!”

But Li Yuechan looked at him suspiciously and said, “…I’ve heard that some evil spirits cling to the living, taking refuge in their bodies and spending day and night with them.”

“Some of these seductive ghosts will use such methods to attach themselves to men, meeting them in dreams, using all sorts of soul-consuming techniques to extract the man’s yang energy…”

Li Yuechan’s mind seemed to wander as she suspiciously eyed Li Muyang, saying, “Brother, you’ve been hiding in your room lately, ignoring everyone, and Xiaoshun says you’re always sleeping.”

“You… you haven’t really been meeting a beautiful ghost in your dreams, have you?”

Little sister Li Yuechan’s gaze suddenly became worried.

Li Muyang stared at her speechlessly, thinking, “What on earth is this girl thinking about…”

Is this what a fifteen-year-old girl should be pondering about

Can’t you be a bit more pure and cute?

The team continued forward, and Li Muyang and the others received a battle flag, then followed the route deep into the bloodstone mine to place the flag at the designated spot.

When Senior Brother Cheng handed over the flag, he kindly explained,

“Don’t worry, the wailing of that female ghost was due to Elder Yan’s grand formation taking effect. The ancient spirits hiding in the mine can’t stay concealed much longer.”

“As long as you stay around the flag and don’t leave on your own, even if ancient spirits appear, they won’t be able to harm you.”

The aloof young Senior Brother spoke with a cold expression and left after finishing.

After thanking him, Li Muyang and the others left, and Li Yuechan whispered,

“Senior Brother Cheng is quite nice…”

Li Muyang, curious, looked around the mine and said, “There were more wailing sounds from the depths of the mine just now… Maybe we’ll get to see a big battle today?” ?

For ten days, everyone had been toiling in this underground mine without seeing a single ancient spirit.

Today, there might be a chance to witness the dazzling battle between high-level demon cultivators and ancient spirits.

If they could completely eradicate the ancient spirits in the mine, Li Muyang and the others wouldn’t have to come to this damned underground pit every night.

Although the blood fog in the bloodstone mine was comfortable for demon cultivators, it was boring to stay for too long, not to mention they had to guard the flag and stand all night, which was both tedious and dull.

Everyone was hoping that Elder Yan would get rid of the ancient spirits underground quickly.

Li Muyang’s mind was full of games, and he just wanted to finish his work quickly and go back to fighting the boss.

After Li Muyang and the others placed the flag at the designated spot, they set up the flag as usual and took positions representing heaven, earth, and man, protecting the upright flag in the middle.

Once the formation was set up, purple rays of light weaved through the blood-colored mine, connecting the flags.

Then the Soul Refining Formation released its radiance, turning into waves of purple light that spread outwards…

Half an hour later, there was finally some activity deep in the bloodstone mine.

An angry, resentful roar echoed through the underground cavern.

“Damn it! Damn you all!”

The moment Li Muyang heard this voice, he was taken aback.

Damn… that voice sounds like Lord Bifeng?

From the game ‘Legend of Sword and Fairy’, a demon king who was c*ckolded by the Crimson Flame King, a truly unfortunate soul.

The first ancient spirit to emerge was this unlucky fellow?

Li Muyang had a strong impression of this guy. He felt that he was a bit brainless and was being schemed against by other demon kings in the game.

And now, it was this guy’s spirit that was the first to emerge.

As the ancient spirits appeared, a cold and chilling wind surged through the underground cavern.

But in the next second, the purple radiance of the Soul Refining Formation flared up, instantly shattering the eerie wind that had risen from the depths.

Elder Yan’s cool and indifferent voice echoed through the tunnels.

“Imperial command!”

“All ghosts bow down, refine souls and dispel worries! Swift as the law!”

The Soul Refining Formation in the tunnel was immediately activated, and the flag that Li Muyang and the others were surrounding trembled violently, its purple radiance intensifying.

One after another, beams of purple light shot towards the depths of the cave, slaying the evil spirits and remnants.

Li Muyang and his companions guarded the flag, unable to witness the core area of the battle.

But the piercing roars and the resentful howls of the ancient spirits, along with Elder Yan’s ever cool and indifferent commands that grew more and more urgent, all indicated the intensity of the battle.

The appearance of Lord Bifeng was just the beginning.

As the power of the Soul Refining Formation grew stronger, the hidden ancient spirits surged out one after another, causing chaos along with Lord Bifeng.

The piercing sounds of explosions, the shrill cries of the ghostly remnants, and Elder Yan’s commands…

The battle within the bloodstone mine was even more intense than imagined.

Even the inner disciples started to move around.

They carried dark red buckets, running through the foggy, ghostly underground tunnels, pouring the dark red demonic blood from the buckets onto the flags throughout the tunnels to strengthen the power of the Soul Refining Formation.

Li Muyang and his companions huddled uncertainly by the flag, daring not to leave for a moment.

The ancient spirits began to riot in the tunnels, and even two ferocious and creepy remnants emerged from the ground, attempting to attack the trio.

However, as the spirits emerged, the flag beside Li Muyang and his companions shone brightly, directly repelling the two vicious ghosts.

Despite this, the ghost-fearing Guan Xiaoshun was still startled.

“Ghosts! It’s g-g-ghosts…”

The boy from the border town was so scared he even stuttered.

Although Li Muyang did not lose his composure like Guan Xiaoshun, he too was startled by the two translucent ghostly figures.

“Guard this flag! We can’t let those resentful spirits and ghosts destroy it!”

Li Muyang immediately protected the flag behind him.

The resentful ghosts, finding themselves unable to confront Elder Yan’s Soul Refining Formation, began attacking the flags, trying to break the formation designed to target the ghostly remnants.

Although Li Muyang and his companions were frightened, they instinctively protected the flag, continuously attacking the ghostly shadows that emerged from the darkness.

But the purple light of the Soul Refining Formation protected them, preventing the evil spirits from getting close.

Instead, the attacks of the three were able to penetrate the Soul Refining Formation, continuously striking the evil spirits.

As more and more evil spirits surged out of the shadows, Li Muyang, while constantly attacking the evil spirits, suddenly felt as if he was experiencing a hallucination of playing a tower defense game.

–There are way too many evil spirits!
