At this moment, Li Wei had already secretly ordered the three ghosts to surround the opponent, and continued, "This guy used the manuscript to make Liu Yuchen collect Dragon Jade for him. During the Monster Hunter quest, I obtained that manuscript by chance... You could say that my appearance was an accident for this Ghost Shadow. And since Liu Yuchen didn't appear in this quest, it's very likely that this Ghost Shadow has given up on Liu Yuchen, or even killed him. It's probably because Liu Yuchen was unwilling to be used and probably wanted to use this Ghost Shadow in return to collect Dragon Jade for his own use, but unfortunately, it ended in failure!"

The series of analyses left the Ghost Shadow silent for a long time before it finally chuckled and said, "You're right, Liu Yuchen was a good subordinate and a good puppet, but unfortunately he was too impatient. He thought he could escape my control, so I killed him... Now I have five of the six Dragon Jade pieces. As long as I get my hands on the last one, I can obtain the power I've always dreamed of. But now that you know my purpose, then... die!"

Having said that, the Ghost Shadow opened its mouth wide, and a powerful suction force shot out from its mouth.

"A devouring ability?" Li Wei's right eye suddenly changed color, but he also shot out an invisible suction force, which clashed with the opponent's suction force.

The suction force was too strong to touch, otherwise one would be torn into energy fragments in an instant. The two, who also possessed the Devouring skill, naturally knew its power, so they increased the output of their Devouring ability, determined to kill their opponent on the spot.

As the Ghost Shadow unleashed its devouring power, it also tossed out a jet-black object with black threads. No one knew what it did, but suddenly a large number of units from the Heroes of Might and Magic world appeared on the ground.

He actually summoned all the creatures he had recruited. These soldiers varied in quality, but their numbers were enormous and they were extremely powerful in combat.

"This damn thing is going all out!" Li Wei snorted coldly, but he also summoned the Black Paper and summoned all the creatures on it. The number of them was no less than that of the opponent, and there were even many high-level troops.

"Eliminating their troops will destroy their last resort. Yu Tong, An Hei, those monsters are yours to deal with. Three Old Ghost, come with me to deal with this Ghost Shadow!" Li Wei continued to increase the output of his devouring ability, but could only maintain a balance with the opponent. This showed that this Ghost Shadow was definitely not an ordinary person.

The three Old Ghost were also on high alert, and each used their supernatural powers to attack.

The Ghost Shadow let out a strange hiss and burst forth with a large amount of viscous black mist, like ink. Anything that came into contact with the black mist was quickly decomposed, even hard rocks.

"Back off! Don't touch that black mist!" Li Wei was also anxious; he really hadn't expected the Ghost Shadow to be so powerful.

However, it seems that the opponent's use of this black mist was somewhat limited; otherwise, it would have been more direct to use this move against the Sacred Dragon Gaia from the very beginning of the mission.

Li Wei guessed that the Ghost Shadow was likely a projection of the opponent. The fact that it could kill Liu Yuchen, who had an A2 combat power, meant that the projection's combat power was definitely extraordinary, possibly reaching S-rank. However, it only used a puppet to act, which was probably due to some constraint that prevented it from using its true power, and this was precisely what Li Wei could utilize.

What the other party fears must be the Main God.

As long as this point is grasped, one can be invincible. Of course, Li Wei absolutely does not want the Main God to discover the existence of the Dragon Jade, but fortunately, he had already devised a plan with An Hei.

If this plan succeeds, then we can seize the Dragon Jade and keep it a secret from the Main God.

Thinking of this, Li Wei recklessly activated his devouring ability. The power generated by the suction even pulled in the surrounding black mist. Looking around, it seemed as if there was a giant dragon between Li Wei and the Ghost Shadow, constantly tearing everything around them apart.

The first step in Li Wei's plan was to force the other side to use all their strength.

Li Wei's guess was correct; the Ghost Shadow was also suffering in silence.

His true body was far away in another star field. Although he used some kind of secret technique to project such an avatar on Earth Star, it took a lot of his strength. The projected combat power was only one-tenth of his true body, but it still reached S1 level. Originally, with this powerful combat power, collecting Dragon Jade would not have been a difficult task.

The problem is that the Dragon Jade only exists in the mission world, and the controller of the mission world is the 'Main God'. In order not to attract the attention of the Main God, he only needs to suppress the energy of his main body and search for puppets to collect the Dragon Jade for him.

The first few pieces of Dragon Jade were collected smoothly without attracting the attention of the Main God. However, the last few pieces were fraught with problems, and the last one even forced him to reveal himself.

This was inherently a very risky thing to do. You know, if the Main God discovered it, his projection would probably be destroyed immediately.

But for the last piece of Dragon Jade, he had to take this risk.

Now he can only try to control his power and keep it at a low level so as not to attract the Main God.

The problem is, he wanted to settle things peacefully, but Li Wei wouldn't agree.

Li Wei was completely exhausted. Due to the continuous use of his Devouring ability, black blood was flowing from his mouth and nose, but Li Wei still gritted his teeth and persevered.

They absolutely could not back down, otherwise not only would they lose the Dragon Jade, but the lives of the three of them would also be lost at the hands of the other side. So they activated their devouring ability even more vigorously, and for a time, the suction force on their side was already overpowering that of the other side.

The Ghost Shadow was terrified. If it were touched by the suction force of the devouring, its projection would be doomed. After much deliberation, it steeled its resolve and suddenly unleashed its full S-rank combat power. Instantly, the suction force generated by its devouring ability became almost tangible, like strands of black hair, rapidly shredding Li Wei's devouring suction force and advancing with unstoppable momentum.

"So you've finally stopped hiding your strength?" Although Li Wei was in a miserable state, a strange smile appeared on his face.

At that instant, a powerful pressure appeared above everyone's heads.

"Main God... you've finally arrived!" Blood was already welling up in Li Wei's right eye, and his mouth and nose were covered in bloodstains, as if he was about to die at any moment.

Indeed, that was the case. The Ghost Shadow black silk was less than half a meter away from him. It only needed to touch Li Wei to decompose Li Wei into pure energy.

The Ghost Shadow opposite also sensed the arrival of the Main God and increased its output even more, determined to obtain the Dragon Jade at the last moment. Once it got the last piece of Dragon Jade, it could obtain the Dragon Power, because the projection was also one of its clones, so the power would be transferred back to its main body.

This was his entire plan, so he put the first five Dragon Jade pieces on Ghost Shadow's body.

Seeing Li Wei in danger from afar, Zheng Yutong panicked and, her face pale, immediately used her Swift Wind Walk to rush towards Li Wei.

But the black silk had already wrapped around Li Wei's arm.

Instantly, the black silk that touched his palm was shredded into pure energy. As the black silk penetrated, Li Wei's wrist and forearm also shattered.

The intense pain jolted Li Wei awake, and he roared, "Aren't you afraid of pulverizing that thing as well by devouring me?"

This statement proved quite useful. Ghost Shadow clearly realized the problem, and in the instant the other party was stunned, Li Wei activated the Shifting Forms and Changing Positions.

In an instant, Li Wei arrived less than a foot behind the Ghost Shadow figure.

After touching the Ghost Shadow's body with his blood-stained arm, Li Wei used Shifting Forms and Changing Positions again, and he and the Ghost Shadow disappeared without a trace.

The powerful pressure emanating from the aerial Main God elicited a gasp of "Eh!"

He had clearly sensed the anomaly that had infiltrated the mission world, but it vanished without a trace along with Li Wei just before he arrived. The Main God sneered and began searching with his powerful divine sense.

Zheng Yutong and An Hei could clearly feel a fluctuation that searched the area two or three times before being withdrawn.

"Nothing? What's going on?" The Main God was completely baffled. In the mission world, no one had ever escaped his mental search.

The Main God scanned the area again with his divine sense, but finding nothing, he left full of doubt.

Feeling the oppressive aura above their heads disappear without a trace, Zheng Yutong and An Hei both breathed a sigh of relief.

The battle involving numerous troop types was nearing its end. Under An Hei's command, their forces annihilated the enemy. After searching the area, An Hei and Zheng Yutong quickly rode their Bone Dragon back to the main city of the swamp.

Along the way, An Hei and Zheng Yutong did not speak to each other. It wasn't until they got off the Bone Dragon that Zheng Yutong and An Hei exchanged a glance.

"That was close! Was that the Main God Li Wei was talking about? It was incredibly powerful; even ten Sacred Dragon Kings couldn't compare!" An Hei let out a long breath.

Zheng Yutong, however, quickly took out a Copper Pot, her eyes full of concern.

An Hei glanced at it and chuckled, "Don't worry, Li Wei is fine. Didn't he say that if the Copper Pot shattered, it meant the plan had failed? But now the Copper Pot is intact, which means our plan has succeeded... Besides, this plan was devised by him and me over three days and three nights. Every step is very detailed, so you could say everything is under our control. There are still more than ten days until the mission deadline, so we can relax a bit and wait for Li Wei to come out of the Copper Pot!"

Zheng Yutong nodded. Although she had known about the plan from the beginning, she still couldn't help but worry. After all, Li Wei's arm had been shredded and he had exhausted too much strength. What if he couldn't hold on?

While she and An Hei waited, Li Wei was experiencing extreme torment.

Using Shifting Forms and Changing Positions to pull the Ghost Shadow into the Copper Pot was Li Wei and An Hei's plan from the very beginning. Only this method could make them the final winners.
