School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1519: Chapter 1605: Setting Foot on Ghost King Mountain

With Su Qingqing by his side, Chen Nan was naturally happy.

However, the Ghost King is eccentric, and due to the situation involving the Dragon Emperor’s Tomb, there might be people on the way wanting to ambush him and seize the treasure.

After careful consideration, in order to ensure her safety, it was best to persuade her not to go.

”You should not go; instead, seek out your godmother, the Jiuyin Witch. In case I can’t handle the Ghost King, she can at least say something favorable for me, being one of the two supremes in the Magic Realm.”

Although Su Qingqing was very reluctant to part with Chen Nan, after hearing his words, she nodded reluctantly.

Since this matter involving Chen Nan concerned the entire Mortal World, she couldn’t be too capricious.

Chen Nan had the Pu Li Strange Beast accompany Su Qingqing for the time being. The beast’s big eyes were full of reluctance.

Elder Zi Jie then went on a lengthy explanation about matters concerning the Ghost King before finally letting Chen Nan and the Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch set off.

As Chen Nan and the Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch flew, not knowing how much time had passed, the Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch pointed ahead: ”Chen Nan, we are about to reach Ghost King Mountain. Only by crossing Ghost King Mountain can we hope to meet the Ghost King. Be extremely cautious with your current cultivation.”

In the distance, a tall mountain stood in the path of the two, shrouded in mist and exuding a sinister aura.

As they approached, they noticed the mountain actually resembled a giant ghost head, complete with a nose, eyes, and a mouth. Countless blood-red rays flickered continuously, seemingly waiting to devour someone.

As Chen Nan approached, a purple light shield appeared on the Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch’s body, enveloping him as well.

Not far ahead, formations seemed to start operating, making one’s heart tremble.

”Heavenly Monarch Fifth Layer, not bad, and from the Illusion Destruction Sect too. Are you looking for the mighty Ghost King?” A massive ghost head appeared, holding a three-pointed double-edged blade in its hand, looking extremely formidable.

”Yes, we have some matters to discuss with the esteemed Ghost King.”

The Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch said amicably, glancing at the enormous ghost head.

”You may pass, but this boy here, just an Immortal Domain level, unless he can defeat me, don’t think about easily passing through Ghost King Mountain.” The ghost head chuckled sinisterly.

Chen Nan was about to make a move to teach the ghost head a lesson, but was pulled back by Ziyun: ”Chen Nan, every ghost head on this Ghost King Mountain possesses Immortal Domain strength, and they know the Combined Attack Technique. They are barriers specifically set by the Ghost King to intercept cultivators below the Heavenly Monarch level. Be cautious.”

Her initial intention was to stop Chen Nan, but recalling the great divine powers he possessed, she let it go.

”You brat, seeing so many ghost grandpas, yet you dare not kneel, you’re too arrogant!”

The massive ghost head suddenly struggled out from the mountain body, revealing its enormous form. Once fully emerged, its head seemed considerably smaller.

”Kneel, quickly kneel... kneel...”

Along with the ghost head’s emergence, countless ghost spirits directly emerged from the mountain, filling the view like a dense mass of darkness.

These ghost spirits were all at Ghost King Level, at least Heavenly Realm cultivators in their lifetime, enhanced by the Ghost King with secret techniques to reach Immortal Domain Realm.

”In your dreams!”

Chen Nan uttered a few words. They were just beings borrowing power, yet dared to be so presumptuous even as Yin Souls.

With a single movement, he vanished from his spot.

The next moment, Chen Nan appeared at the center of Ghost King Mountain, grabbing the ghost king who had spoken earlier.

”Divine Fire Avatar!”

He unleashed the Divine Skills of the Fire Element Heavenly Skill, causing the ghost king to cry out in agony and retreat back into Ghost King Mountain.

Seeing the divine fire, the other Yin Souls trembled with fear and retreated into the belly of Ghost King Mountain.

Chen Nan laughed heartily: ”Weren’t you just asking me to kneel? Didn’t you call yourselves ghost grandpas? Why are you now fleeing faster than rabbits?”

Having witnessed Chen Nan’s Divine Fire Avatar before, Ziyun did not expect that the Yin energy accumulated over hundreds of years at Ghost King Mountain would be insufficient to resist. These ghost kings seemed like mice encountering a cat in front of Chen Nan.

Seeing Chen Nan clowning around, Ziyun quickly called out to him: ”Hurry, finding the Ghost King is the priority.”

Responding to her call, Chen Nan stamped his foot on Ghost King Mountain, making it rumble, before continuing onwards with the Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch.

Beyond Ghost King Mountain, a suspension bridge appeared before the two of them.

There were great forbidden techniques in place here, making flight impossible. Beneath the suspension bridge lay an endless abyss, more terrifying than the abyss seen in the Dragon Emperor’s Tomb, with mist rising and seemingly harboring demons within.

”The Ghost King sure knows how to enjoy, living in a place like this and not allowing anyone to fly.”

Chen Nan examined the place carefully. Although haunted with ghostly air, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was vibrant here, making it an ideal place for cultivation with rapid progress.

”Even without the forbidden techniques, flying here would be courting death. The Supreme Expert knows everything, keep a low profile. If you offend the Ghost King, this mission...” The Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch realized he was becoming nagging.

The two walked for roughly a quarter of an hour before crossing the suspension bridge into a large palace filled with such gloomy air.

Upon entering, Chen Nan noticed many children playing in the palace hall. Upon seeing them, the children scattered in fright, hiding behind a screen.

Chen Nan approached behind the screen but didn’t see a single shadow.

Just as he was finding it strange, a boy walked over from afar, ”Who are you two, and what are you doing here?”

The boy looked thirteen or fourteen years old, much younger than Chen Nan. His eyes sparkled with a sharp gleam, but it was hard to discern his cultivation level.

”We have come to see the esteemed Ghost King regarding some matters in which we need assistance,” Chen Nan stated.

The boy shook his head, ”The Ghost King is not here. If you have business, you can speak with me.”

”Speak with you?”

Chen Nan furrowed his brows.

Before he could speak, Ziyun interjected: ”We seek the Ghost King for concerns involving the Mortal World. The Heavenly People Clan has set up a Demon Summoning Formation in the Mortal World, and we require the Ghost King’s help.”

”So, you came concerning Mortal World’s affairs.”

The boy gestured with his hand for Chen Nan to approach, ”Are you representing the Mortal World? Let me ask, have you ever heard the saying, ’If I do not enter hell, who will enter hell!’”

Chen Nan nodded, recalling how he had sacrificed himself fighting the strong of the Demon Clan, living out that saying.

”Alright then, if you wish to see the Ghost King, you must first pass my trial. If you defeat me, I’ll let you through. If unfortunately, you die by my hand, then it’s simply fated to be such a catastrophe in your destiny.”

The boy stretched out his hand, striking a pose directed at Chen Nan.

”Chen Nan, this seems peculiar. Should I intervene?” The Purple Rhythm Heavenly Monarch glanced around the palace, alerting Chen Nan.

”No need, just a mere thirteen or fourteen-year-old kid, how powerful can he be.” Chen Nan brushed it off, directly sweeping a palm strike towards the boy.
