Chapter 722: Chapter 553: Advanced Evolution New Skills

Being thrown, Su Yu roared in mid-air. Suddenly, his Spine Bone Wings spread out behind him, transforming into a rain of bone spurs that rained down furiously on the Ghost King who had just stumbled back a step.

This time, the Ghost King was caught off guard and took the full brunt of the attack.

Against attacks from other Bronze Warriors, the Ghost King could completely ignore them, even becoming immune to them. However, it couldn’t shrug off the attack from Su Yu, who was close in power. It let out an enraged roar as numerous holes appeared in its body; each hole was pierced by a bone spur. Black blood gushed out like a fountain. At this moment, Su Yu twisted his body in mid-air and executed the "Eight-step Soar" again, as if stepping on invisible steps. He quickly flew overhead the Ghost King and brought his two arms down in a heavy blow.

The Ghost King, severely injured by this backstabbing attack, roared in fury. Seeing Su Yu smashing down, it didn’t resist, allowing Su Yu’s attack to land on its head.

Immediately, its head burst open, and blackish blood flowed out. However, a fierce grin appeared on the Ghost King’s face as it opened its mouth and spewed out black liquid.

Su Yu’s arms struck the monster’s head and saw that it didn’t dodge. He realized something was wrong. He tried to escape using the "Eight-step Soar," but it was too late. He was hit squarely by the massive amount of black liquid.

Su Yu let out a wild scream. In an instant, the scales all over his body began to dissolve rapidly, emitting thick black smoke. The Ghost King had already realized from the previous clashes that Su Yu was slightly weaker than it was. Its skull was the hardest part of its body, and although Su Yu’s attack might crack its skull, it wouldn’t kill it. So, it took the gamble and sprayed its black liquid, which Su Yu failed to avoid and absorbed in its entirety.

"Su Yu--" Behind him, Ma Ziye shouted in surprise and rushed forward.

The Ghost King snarled menacingly, extended its arm and grabbed Su Yu, who had been hit by the black liquid, in its palm. It clenched its five fingers, intending to crush Su Yu to pieces.

Su Yu screamed as the black scales all over his body were melted and decomposed by the poisonous liquid. At the same time, he activated the "Black Iron Blood" and "Bronze Droplet" in his left arm to unleash his willpower in a massive blow against the Ghost King’s head.

The Ghost King’s head reverberated with an explosive sound, and it felt dizzy for a moment. Its right hand, which was tightly holding Su Yu, instinctively loosened, allowing Su Yu’s left arm to stretch out and grab one of the fingers in the Ghost King’s palm, snapping it backwards.

With a crisp "snap," the Ghost King let out a painful cry as its finger snapped. Su Yu took the opportunity to free himself, employed the "Eight-step Soar," and landed over twenty meters away from the Ghost King. His special power was raging all over his body. Although the black liquid had melted all his black scales, it could not invade his body. His strong alien power had stopped it.

With a shake, he flung off the large amounts of black poisonous liquid on him. A panicked Ma Ziye rushed over. Seeing Su Yu had safely landed and was shaking off the poisonous liquid, seemingly unharmed, she sighed with relief. Initially, she had not planned to intervene because she had full confidence in Su Yu’s ability to kill the Ghost King. But after seeing the intense battles, she knew that it wouldn’t be easy for Su Yu to defeat this immensely powerful Ghost King.

Ma Ziye pulled out her Soul Weapon, ready to lend Su Yu a hand.

Utilizing his Liquefied Alien Force, Su Yu shook his body, and the black poisonous liquid was completely shaken off. Su Yu roared, and "hissing" sounds could be heard continuously as scales grew all over his body, making him look like a giant black-scaled lizard over two meters tall. Su Yu rushed at the Ghost King again.

The Ghost King howled in rage. Seeing that its poison had failed to injure Su Yu, it was astonished. Raising its arms, it launched a heavy attack against Su Yu and sprayed out more poisonous liquid from its mouth.

Su Yu used the "Eight-step Soar" to sidestep over twenty meters instantly, avoiding the poison. At the same time, Ma Ziye let out a soft cry, throwing out her Soul Weapon.

The Soul Shackle flew out, and with a crisp sound, its ends snapped close together, locking up an odd little black figure from inside the Ghost King.

This little black figure, only half a meter long, looked like a miniature version of the black Ghost King. It was emitting a "zzzt" noise while being shackled, with most of its body already pulled out of the Ghost King. It was struggling mightily while an exhausted-looking Ma Ziye pulled it out, shouting, "Su Yu, quick—"

Being only a Second-Level Bronze Warrior, it wasn’t easy for Ma Ziye to pull this little black figure out of the Ghost King. At the same time, Su Yu noticed that as soon as Ma Ziye’s Soul Shackle locked up the little black figure, the massive body of the Ghost King froze and didn’t move an inch.

Hearing Ma Ziye’s cries, Su Yu immediately soared into the sky, letting out a long howl. The "Black Iron Blood" and "Bronze Blood" within his body surged and whirled, making a crisp snapping sound similar to a sophisticated machine starting its operation. Amid the snapping sounds, he unleashed his greatest strength.

With a thunderous boom, Su Yu’s Bronze Giant Arm crushed again the spot he had previously attacked, landing his second blow on the Ghost King’s head.

Although his blow did not shatter the Ghost King’s skull, its outer skin rippled apart completely. Amid the black blood and rotten flesh, a gruesome white skull laid bare, bestowing an eerie feeling.

With Su Yu’s blow, the Ghost King seemed to sense danger. The black creature within it struggled more violently. Soon, Ma Ziye couldn’t restrain the Soul Shackle, and it was gradually being pulled back by the black creature into its original body.

"Hurry..." Beads of sweat formed on Ma Ziye’s forehead as she involuntarily shouted out loud.

Su Yu landed on the Ghost King’s shoulder. Seeing Ma Ziye’s extreme effort, he decided not to attack its skull anymore. Instead, he reached out his hands and abruptly plunged them into the Ghost King’s eyes.

With a hiss, he could clearly feel the Ghost King, with its massive body of over thirty meters, shudder violently. Its eyes were immediately blinded by Su Yu’s fingers, his hands firmly planted in the monster’s massive eye sockets. His left arm’s "Bronze Blood" and right arm’s "Black Iron Blood" together began to boil.

"Roar—"

Roaring towards the sky, Su Yu unleashed unparalleled strength in his arms and forcefully lifted upwards.

Suddenly, blood spurted everywhere, and the scalp was ripped open. The Ghost King’s exceedingly hard skull was penetrated by Su Yu’s hands—driven into its eye sockets—and was forcibly cracked open from below.

As the skull was opened, white brain matter gushed out. Su Yu’s Bronze Giant Arm attacked again, swiftly and decisively. With its skull scrapped, the Ghost King released a horrifying scream. Its head finally shattered into a mushy mess, like a smashed watermelon.

Ma Ziye could clearly feel the resistance of the Ghost King diminishing. Then, the black creature was pulled out of its body by her Soul Shackle, swallowed up and disappeared. The Soul Shackle immediately gleamed with a bright black luster. It seemed that after absorbing the black creature, it obtained a great deal of energy, increasing the power of the Soul Shackle.

Su Yu elegantly flipped backward and landed on the ground. The colossal Ghost King, over thirty meters tall, collapsed. Its head was completely crushed, and it didn’t even have time to let out a final scream. Inside its body, four stellar, massive Bronze Crystal Cores popped out, then disappeared inside Su Yu’s body.

After absorbing these four massive Bronze Crystal Cores again, Su Yu let out a roar. A patch of bronze-colored scales appeared on his body. Starting from his left arm, they spread across his body. Soon, sharp, bronze scales replaced the round, black ones on his chest. He finally made a breakthrough again, evolving into the more powerful Third-Level Bronze Warrior.

After leveling up again, Su Yu could clearly feel an inexhaustible and immense power gushing deep within his body. This mysterious power, combined with the massive amounts of Special Power he had just absorbed, continually condensed into Bronze Droplets, replacing the "Black Iron Blood" within him. The intensity and power of the Special Power within him increased manifold yet again. Moreover, he once again had the opportunity to gain new abilities or promote existing skills.

Su Yu chose to obtain a new skill. However, after comprehending the new skill, he started to regret it as the new skill was to summon a "Bronze Hammer". This "Bronze Hammer", about a meter long and bronze-colored, was a type of weapon skill. Once summoned, it could be held in hand to be used as a weapon. However, its shape, a gigantic hammer, did not align with Su Yu’s idea of the ideal weapon, which made him a little frustrated.

In his imagination, swords were elegant, which he preferred, or even a knife would do. Generally, hammers were weapons used by simple-minded, muscular brutes.

As the Ghost King fell dead, Su Yu successfully evolved into a Third-Level Bronze Warrior. His strength had increased once again. Finally, the entrance to the New World opened.

A heavenly staircase extended from the clouds above the Hungry Ghost City, plummeting vertically into the city. Apparently, passing through these heavenly stairs, one could leave this world full of hungry ghosts and enter a higher level of the New World. (To be continued.
