Ghost Mask

Lin Mu shouted to the others.

"Everyone, these Shikigami aren't that difficult to deal with. The Black Qi around them has limitations. After absorbing an elemental attack, there will be a short cooldown. During this time, launching a physical attack on them can break the Black Qi. To prevent the Black Qi from dissipating, the Shikigami will rush out from within. As long as you take the opportunity to strike their bodies, they will die."

The others looked delighted upon hearing this and immediately gave it a try.

Mei Yuhao quickly formed hand seals, and the shadow enveloping him moved to the side.

A powerful gust of wind surged from his long staff as he swung it toward the Shikigami at incredible speed.

A large amount of strong wind was swallowed up by the Black Qi.

Mei Yuhao leaped forward, continuing to get closer to the Shikigami.

The Shikigami's body emerged from the Black Qi.

But at that moment, a shadow flew out from underground, wielding a long staff.

Bang!

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out, striking the Shikigami's body hard.

The Shikigami let out a painful scream, and a large amount of Black Qi appeared.

Mei Yuhao knew what this was, and he swung his long staff, striking the Black Qi.

The Black Qi emitted a mournful sound and transformed into Divine Soul Crystal that fell to the ground.

"It really works!" Mei Yuhao's eyes showed a hint of joy as he looked at Lin Mu with admiration in his heart.

If it were him, who knows when he would discover the Shikigami's weakness.

"I don't know how he did it!" Mei Yuhao couldn't help but exclaim.

Cen Peishan moved swiftly, her longsword extremely skillful, unleashing hundreds of slashes in an instant.

The strikes carried the power of wind and rain.

These strikes were absorbed by the Black Qi.

Cen Peishan's speed was astonishing; she appeared in front of the Shikigami almost instantly.

The Shikigami rushed out.

But as soon as it appeared, Cen Peishan suddenly swung her longsword.

Laugh!

The sound of something cutting through the air came from behind.

The Shikigami's head was severed.

It didn't even have a second chance to make a move against Cen Peishan.

As for An Changhao and Pang Ruirui, they remained huddled under the defensive shield. They were both support characters, and even if they knew the Shikigami's weakness, there was nothing they could do.

Lin Mu and the others kept moving.

One offensive after another emerged.

Although these Shikigami are troublesome, they can be easily dealt with once you know their methods.

Because their defenses are very weak, they can be defeated with just one move.

One by one, the Shikigami perished as a result.

After defeating about ten of them, the Shikigami floating in mid-air seemed to lose some kind of support and turned into wisps of green smoke, dissipating in place.

After the last Shikigami disappeared, a Ghost Mask fell from the sky.

Lin Mu looked at the Ghost Mask on the ground. There was some Black Qi wrapped around the mask, giving people an ominous feeling.

"This is what Shikigami are!?" Lin Mu asked.

Cen Peishan and the others also came over and looked at the Ghost Mask in front of them.

"This thing feels very strange; it's better to leave it to the mentor," Mei Yuhao suggested.

"Okay!" Lin Mu nodded.

He channeled some of his Source Force onto the Ghost Mask.

The Black Qi on the Ghost Mask hissed, like snow meeting fire.

As the Black Qi dissipated, the Ghost Mask seemed to lose its life, becoming just like an ordinary mask.

Lin Mu carefully picked it up, and after confirming that it was alright, he put it into his Space Bracelet.

"I never imagined that the Turtle Country would have such methods," Lin Mu said.

"Turtle Country is just a small, remote country. If it weren't for its geographical location, how could it possibly contend with our Dragon Country!"

"It's just that most of the Dragon Country's elite troops are on the Border Battlefield, otherwise they would have destroyed the Turtle Country long ago!" Mei Yuhao said.

Lin Mu nodded slightly.

He was also aware of the ways of the Turtle Country.

I've never been very likable.

It is a two-faced country that is willing to harm the whole world for its own interests.

Such a country exists because it has a good relationship with the Eagle Country and often sends resources to the Eagle Country.

This is why many countries dare not easily take action against him.

In this world.

The Dragon Country, Eagle Country, Bear Country, Giant Python Country can be considered the four great kingdoms.

It occupies 80 percent of the world's resources.

They were also the main force in fighting against the invasion of Demon.

Almost all small countries depend on these four major powers for survival.

The war between the Turtle Country and the Dragon Country was actually orchestrated by the Eagle Country.

That's why it's so difficult to conquer.

And the Shikigami of the Turtle Country are indeed strange.

If Lin Mu hadn't possessed the system, these people would likely have died here.

"What else do these guys have besides Shikigami?" Lin Mu walked towards the group.

After searching them, they found several martial arts manuals and a notebook filled with the script of the Turtle Country.

Since Lin Mu and the others couldn't understand it, they put it into their Space Bracelet.

After resting for a while, they looked toward the Cloud Profound Stone.

They discovered that after the Shikigami had passed by, the remnants of the demonic beasts in the vicinity had all disappeared.

Even the Demon suppressed by the Cloud Profound Stone seemed to be affected by something and did not appear.

"It seems that his power has been drained by the Shikigami!" Lin Mu said.

"This Shikigami is amazing; it can directly extract the power of Demon," Mei Yuhao said.

"It can't be that simple. If they could really extract the power of Demon so easily, they wouldn't have been beaten so badly by the Demon back then!"

"There must be some reason behind this," Lin Mu said.

He felt something was off.

How could a small, remote country possibly have such methods?

"That's right! Even our country can't do this, how could a Turtle Country possibly do it?" Cen Peishan said.

"I'll ask my advisor about this when I get back; he'll definitely have some information."

Several people nodded.

The figure walked towards the Cloud Profound Stone.

Without Demon interference, they quickly set up the Formation.

After more than ten hours of effort, light began to shimmer on the Cloud Profound Stone.

Lines of characters then appeared.

Like the previous characters, it is a record about a certain kind of cultivation technique.

Lin Mu studied diligently and finally memorized them all after three hours.

Lin Mu took a deep breath, feeling a surge of joy.

He knew very well that these cultivation techniques would require at least 100,000 points to exchange within the academy.

This saved him a lot of money.

Just as Lin Mu sat down to adjust himself, Mei Yuhao came up to him and threw out the Divine Soul Crystal.

"These things are useless to me, you can keep them!"

Lin Mu was slightly taken aback.

He knew that these things could be exchanged for points, although not many, but so many Divine Soul Crystal were worth at least tens of thousands of points.

Mei Yuhao gave it to him directly.

"This is too valuable!"

"It's alright, I'll need your help later!" Mei Yuhao said.

"What do you mean?" Lin Mu asked.

"I need something here that I can't get on my own. Consider this my payment to you!" Mei Yuhao said.

Lin Mu thought for a moment, then nodded slightly. "Okay!"

Cen Peishan also came to him and threw the Divine Soul Crystal over.

"Me too, I'll need your help to retrieve the Cloud Crystal later!"

Lin Mu nodded. "Then let's each get what we need!"

Looking at the Divine Soul Crystal before him, he picked them up and placed them one by one in front of his forehead, as a large amount of Divine Soul Power surged into his mind.
