Chapter 300 The Conference Begins
"Interesting, two interesting ghosts." Chong Lan glanced at Lin Chen and Jian Gui, couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and laughed.
When the ghosts saw Chonglan praising Lin Chen so much, they all felt a little uneasy.
Lin Chen and Wu Xin laughed dryly upon hearing this.
Lin Chen couldn't figure out Chonglan's attitude.
Wu Xin didn't bother to pretend to be cool. If he continued to remain aloof in front of a ghost of this level, he might get slapped to death.
Moreover, he is not in the right even after his death, it is the kind of death that is in vain.
He is a middle school student, but not stupid.
The wine and meat were served again.
The banquet officially began.
Chonglan, a ghost at the top of the hall, sat among a group of evil gods.
The conflict originally caused by Lin Chen was suppressed instantly, and the banquet finally went on smoothly.
But compared to before, the atmosphere became very quiet, and almost no ghost dared to speak too much.
Seeing this, Chonglan grinned and said, "Just pretend I don't exist. I just came here to have some drinks and you can chat about your own things."
Monka smiled and said, "Master Jilan is right. Let's drink."
All the ghosts echoed, and after drinking the strong liquor filled with yin energy, the Infinite Ghost, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke on his own initiative.
He smiled and said, "Since Lord Ji Lan said so, then I will not be shy. Brother Ji Ye, are you here for the Territory Monument?"
Ordinary evil gods might just come here to gain some insights, but the highest-level ones are considering how to gain recognition from the town monument. Therefore, whether it was Lin Chen before or the Ji Gui in front of him, they have all become his competitors.
"Of course." Ji Gui chuckled.
"Brother Ji Ye, since you survived, you must have used the Ji Dao Reincarnation of your Ji Dao Hai. Although this extremely strange secret technique can allow you to regenerate, you will lose a part of your essence that is difficult to recover. I'm afraid you don't have much combat power left now." said the Nightmare Ghost, his eyes flashing, testing the Ji Ghost.
The Jidaohai's Jidao reincarnation is not a big secret. As members of the Supreme Family, the Nightmare Ghost and the Infinite Ghost know about it.
As for why the extreme ghost did not appear on the potential list, they didn't even ask. With ghosts above seven stars to cover up, it is entirely possible for an evil spirit to not be recorded on the potential list.
Therefore, some ghosts said that the potential list is not the only representative, and there are still some powerful ghost species hidden behind it.
Of course, they are only a very small minority, and at the highest level, they basically don’t care about the ghost species hiding in the dark, they are already strong enough!
Faced with the temptation, Ji Gui chuckled and said, "You don't need to worry about how much combat power I have left."
He was very confident. Even if he was defeated once, he still didn't take other supreme beings seriously.
"Hmph." The Nightmare Ghost snorted coldly and didn't say anything else.
Wuxian Gui smiled and said, "Anyway, Brother Jiye, welcome back."
He raised his glass, and Jigui gave him face and drank a glass with him.
Wuxian Gui continued, "Brother Jiye, you should know that human the best. We did not participate in the Battle of Banjie Mountain due to special reasons, but we are very curious about him. Can you give us a brief description of his true combat power?"
All the ghosts were a little curious. The news about Chen had been spreading like crazy in the horror world in the past two days. Especially the palace ghosts like Mingxun had suffered a great loss at his hands, lost everything, and were tortured all day long, unable to even get out of bed. Naturally, they were very concerned about Chen's affairs.
" Are you provoking me?" Ji Gui's eyes turned cold in an instant, and the invisible ghost power began to fluctuate, and the whole hall suddenly became cold.
There were gusts of cold wind, and that aura was firmly locked on the Infinite Ghost.
"Such a strong aura, he is even stronger than before!"
"How is this possible?"
The two supreme beings, Infinity Ghost and Nightmare Ghost, all changed their expressions.
All the ghosts were awed. They immediately felt Ji Gui's change and their faces were filled with shock.
Lin Chen also raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.
He also clearly discovered that the extreme ghost was somewhat different from before. This ghost power was at least twice as strong as before.
And this is the case when Ji Gui has not yet broken through to the Ghost King.
In the hall, ghost power was rampant, the Infinite Ghost had a tense face, and the Extreme Ghost showed no intention of restraining himself at all.
The explosion of this ghost power caused cracks to appear on some tables and chairs made of special materials.
Some of the fierce gods even had cold sweat on their faces.
The atmosphere has reached freezing point.
At this moment, Chong Lan, who had been eating and drinking beside him, finally spoke up: "You kid, I'm just asking, why don't you put away your ghost power?"
"Yes, uncle." Jigui nodded.
The originally turbulent ghost power finally calmed down.
Many ghosts secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Wuxian Gui's heart was beating fast and a line of cold sweat broke out on his back.
It’s not that he is incompetent, but that Jigui’s ghost power is really aimed at him.
When facing the angry Jigui just now, he actually felt that he was unable to resist.
Although he is powerful and is also supreme, the gap between him and Ji Gui, whose strength has been further enhanced, is as huge as a chasm.
This made him feel very uneasy, but this ghost city was not ordinary. Finally, he let out a breath of depression and said very seriously:
"Brother Ji Ye, I don't have any other intentions. I'm just curious about how strong he is. He should have reached four stars now. We must kill people who openly oppose our Horror World in the future. Now I just want to learn more about him."
"puff!"
As soon as these words came out, before Ji Gui could say anything, Chong Lan laughed out loud, as if he had heard something very interesting. Then he shook his head and said, "You guys chat, you guys chat, Xiao Yezi, since I'm curious, just tell me."
Chonglan looked like he was watching the fun.
When Ji Gui heard this and saw the curious looks from all the ghosts, he took a deep breath. His blood-red pupils trembled slightly, as if he remembered something that he was very reluctant to recall. He said:
"I don't know what happened afterwards, but at that time he had the blessing of the dungeon, so some things were not taken into consideration. But judging from the battle of the prodigies, even if he is still three stars now, I still don't have the slightest chance of winning against him with my current strength."
When the ghosts heard this, they were all horrified.
"Is it really that strong?"
"Who exactly is that human being?"
"Is the Hidden Ghost Power so exaggerated?"
Although Ji Gui had been defeated, he was now even stronger, but he still spoke in this tone, which shocked the other ghosts.
"It's not just his ghost power, his physical body is the most terrifying. When humans and ghosts fight, ghosts usually have the upper hand, because as long as we don't suffer fatal injuries, we can recover instantly."
"But when he punched me, I could only consume my essence to recover my body, but when I punched him, he was not hurt at all. This kind of strength is too terrifying."
Ji Gui said slowly.
"Is it so exaggerated?"
"Is this still a human? Where on earth did he get his strength? This is too scary."
Ji Gui sneered and said, "If any of you really see him in the future, just run away immediately. It's not shameful. Don't even mention killing him."
All the ghosts lowered their heads, their hearts pounding. Since Ji Gui said so, they naturally believed it.
They also did not doubt Chen's strength. After all, his record was there.
But they still felt it was incredible that a human being could make the extremely powerful ghost so afraid.
At this time, Chong Lan added: "That guy is already a four-star. Although he is entangled by the rules and I can't see clearly, his strength is estimated to have surpassed the high-level ghost kings. And I'm talking about the kind of ghost kings whose ghost domain is at least 7,000 meters above."
"What!"
"impossible!"
"A beginner four-star player can deal with a high-level ghost king."
All the ghosts were shocked. Infinite Ghost and Nightmare Ghost even stood up directly, shocked again by Chen's news.
Even Monka's eyes flashed with a hint of horror, and he couldn't help but glance at Lin Chen.
Chong Lan raised his eyebrows, put down his wine glass, and swept his deep eyes across the audience. He said calmly, "You don't believe me?"
"I dare not! I dare not!"
The ghosts waved their hands quickly.
When the Extreme Ghost saw this, he sneered and said, "My uncle's judgment is correct. His knowledge far exceeds that of you ghosts. After I was reborn from the Extreme Dao, I was able to quickly recover my strength and improve to this level again. It's all because of my uncle."
After saying that, Jigui looked at Chonglan with an extremely admiring look.
The ghosts calmed down.
They all heard that Chonglan disappeared for a hundred years and went to a magical and extraordinary place. They didn't expect that not only his own strength was improved to an incredible level, but also that he could make Jigui produce a huge improvement in a short period of time. For a moment, they all felt like they were being scratched by a cat and were extremely curious .
Finally, the more distinguished Infinite Ghost spoke up and asked:
"Master Chonglan, could you tell us a little bit about where you have been in the past hundred years?"
Ji Gui's face changed and he said angrily: "How dare you! Do you think you can ask about my uncle's affairs?"
Chonglan even raised his eyebrows and looked at Wuxian Gui in surprise.
"Brother Ji Ye, I didn't mean that..."
Wuxian Gui's face turned pale instantly, and he cursed himself for being too greedy and daring to ask such a big shot.
But Chong Lan suddenly laughed at this moment. He said, "It's better for you not to know about that place. Besides, my path is indeed unrepeatable. I can't say much about that place."
Wuxian Gui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Chonglan didn't blame him.
Lin Chen's heart moved slightly.
"It seems that even Chonglan cannot tell anyone about the mining area. These miners must have been put under some kind of irresistible restraint while in the mining area."
He felt very sorry about this. After all, as a partner, Lin Chen was naturally extremely curious about the mining area.
Seeing that Chonglan didn't want to reveal anything, the ghosts didn't dare to continue asking.
Instead, he picked up the wine and started drinking again.
Chonglan didn't speak again after saying a few words at the beginning, just like someone who came here to drink for free.
Lin Chen, who had been secretly paying attention to Chong Lan from beginning to end, also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point he had concluded that Chonglan must not have discovered his true identity. After all, his agreement with Chonglan had ended. If the other party really came for him, there was no need to hide it for so long.
Finally, the banquet ended in an orderly manner.
The next day, the news of Ji Gui's appearance and Chen Zhi's power spread at an extremely fast speed.
Many ghosts couldn't help but be amazed.
Not only because Chen's strength once again refreshed the views of the ghosts, but also because Chonglan, who had disappeared for a hundred years, found a way to avoid the shortcomings of Jidao Reincarnation after his return.
This made all the ghosts wish they could go to that mysterious place to gain some experience.
Chonglan couldn't help but sneer when he heard the news.
He is a genius, he will be fine wherever he goes, and that place is definitely not a place where an ordinary person can stay!
…
In the next few days, Lin Chen kept a very low profile and did not continue to go out to play tricks.
His previous actions were too big, and the monument viewing conference was about to begin. Many powerful ghosts came, including some at the Ghost King level, and he did not have the right time to act.
Lin Chen didn't walk out of the room until the day when the monument viewing conference officially started.
Monka came. She had changed back into women's clothes, wearing a white dress with prints. Her appearance had not changed much, and she was not absolutely beautiful, but she gave people an aura that could not be desecrated, like a snow lotus blooming on a snowy mountain.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be a female ghost."
Monka also showed a bright smile and said, "Let's go."
The two of them came to a huge square together.
According to Monka, this square used to be an arena where the ghosts in the city fought against the Yin beasts. It was a property of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.
The environment is spacious and has audience seats, so the stele viewing conference was held here.
At this time, many ghosts had gathered in the audience, including some ghost kings.
At the highest position were three figures. Even though they did not deliberately release the ghost power, it was extremely strong.
There was a lot of yin energy gathering there. It could be said that just three ghosts alone emitted more yin energy than all the ghosts present.
Lin Chen recognized one of the figures, it was Chong Lan who was wearing flowery shorts.
"What's wrong with this guy? Is he really into this kind of outfit?"
Lin Chen couldn't help but complain in his mind.
The second figure was an old man in luxurious clothes, with the four big characters "Wanbao Chamber of Commerce" embroidered in gold thread on his chest. He was actually a palace ghost from Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.
"The Wanbao Chamber of Commerce spans across several continents and countries. It is definitely the largest force in the horror world. It is reasonable for it to have a palace in charge."
Thinking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but glance at Monka beside him.
This ghost is of average strength, but his status is very noble.
However, even this kind of ghost almost died in Mental Hospital No. 9 and could not avoid the player's choice of the horror world. The meaning behind this is terrifying when you think about it carefully.
"Is it possible that in the eyes of the Horror Game, Blue Star and Horror World are just two sheep pens?"
The third figure is a woman.
She looked to be in her thirties, and she was wearing a palace dress. It was obvious that she was of extraordinary status. She had a delicate face and proper makeup. Her skin looked delicate and tender, full of the charm of a mature woman.
"This should be the ghost named Ming Lan."
Lin Chen thought so.
At this time, the three halls also noticed this side, and they first looked at Monka.
"This little ghost Monka actually wears women's clothes and is so cute. It's rare to see him." Minglan, a female ghost in palace dress, spoke with a smile.
"There's been a grudge between this girl and her father. She has been dressing herself in men's clothes for years. Even I didn't expect her to wear women's clothes today." The hall master of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce laughed.
Ming Lan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and then she looked at Lin Chen again. A hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she said, "Interesting, this kind of ghost power must belong to a supreme one. Could it be that it is a ghost whose aura is concealed and is not on the list?"
"Monka encountered a fierce god on his way back to the city. According to Wuyan, he indeed possessed supreme ghost power." The hall master of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce explained.
Chong Lan also said, "It's not just as simple as being supreme. He doesn't have turbulent ghost power. It's normal that you can't see it clearly. The real strength of this ghost is very strong, and he has accumulated a lot of hidden ghost power. Once he breaks through, he may jump to the level of a mid-level ghost king."
"How could this be?" This time even the hall leaders of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce were a little surprised.
"I think it's because he has experienced a copy, but because he can't condense the ghost domain, he has accumulated the hidden ghost power." Ming Lan suddenly realized and quickly figured out the truth.
But this was not enough for her to pay too much attention. Instead, she focused her eyes on Chonglan and said with a smile: "Brother Chonglan, it seems that you have gained a lot in that legendary holy land. You defeated my seventh brother with more than just three punches and two kicks. Your vision is indeed extraordinary."
Nonsense, this is a basic method, otherwise how can we find the minerals hidden in that kind of horrible stone!
Chong Lan snorted coldly and said bluntly: "Do you want to avenge your seventh brother?"
"Not really. My relationship with Seventh Brother is not that close. I'm just a little curious about your hundred years of experience." Ming Lan said with a smile.
"In fact, even I can't see clearly. If his ghost power is not at full power, I can only make a rough guess." Chong Lan replied, and when he looked at Lin Chen, there was also a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"I didn't expect that in just a few days, I would encounter two such perverted juniors."
Lin Chen and Monka did not hear clearly the discussions on the platform, and Lin Chen had already set his sights on the center of the platform. There he saw a huge black curtain covering an object more than three meters high standing there.
"That should be the town monument." Lin Chen thought.
At this time, many ghosts have begun to enter.
Many powerful evil spirits either concealed their ghost power or burst into the field and sat in different positions.
Somewhere near or far from the town monument.
Before long, infinite ghosts and nightmare ghosts appeared one after another.
Seeing that the two of them did not conceal their ghost power fluctuations, they stood in the air and flew directly in.
When he landed on the platform, his Qi still did not relax, and two supreme auras swept across the entire place!
The monument viewing conference is a silent competition, and some evil-minded people will use some means to intimidate others.
Some ghost kings in the stands smiled and praised:
"This kind of ghost power is indeed supreme. It seems that two more supreme ghost kings will be born in my horror world."
"I don't know what kind of ghost domain they can condense, but I estimate it to be at least 8,000 meters."
"Who knows, they may have made a huge profit and even obtained a ghost area of more than 8,500 meters!"
The Nightmare Ghost walked on the platform with a confident look on his face. When he saw Monka wearing a white printed dress, his eyes lit up.
But when his eyes fell on Lin Chen beside Monka, his face suddenly darkened.
But in this environment, he would not be too presumptuous. Finally, he snorted heavily, turned around and stepped onto the platform.
Like Infinite Ghost, he occupies the most core position.
Not long after, a sharp sword sound was heard from outside, and a black sword flew in from outside and stabbed straight onto the ring.
Ghost power emerged, light flowed, and the black sword turned into a young man in full view of everyone.
It was the Sword Ghost Wuxin. He had an aloof look on his face and walked straight to the vicinity of the town monument before sitting down cross-legged.
It also belongs to the core position.
"The Sword Ghost has actually reached the peak of the Fierce God level. What a fast speed."
"His ghost power is extraordinary. We can no longer treat him as a legendary fierce god."
"I heard that his innate skill was not perfect before, but now it has reached the peak of the fierce god. His potential is unlimited."
Hearing the praises, Sword Ghost's lips raised slightly.
Very useful.
Lin Chen, who had been paying attention to the Sword Ghost, couldn't help but hold his forehead and was speechless for a while.
Not long after, Ji Gui also appeared. He had a calm expression on his face, but as soon as he appeared, he revealed extremely powerful ghost power. The entire platform seemed to have turned into a Shura field.
The powerful ghost power made every ghost present change their expression.
There were bursts of exclamations from the platform.
"The Ji ghost is here. Maybe this time the town monument will choose its true master."
"It is estimated that the extreme ghosts will at least condense a ghost area of more than 9,000 meters."
"No! It should be higher. You know, the current Jigui is stronger than before."
The ghosts in the audience were talking about it.
Even the three halls on the high platform couldn't help but start talking.
Ming Lan smiled and said, "It is indeed extraordinary. It is indeed stronger than before. Brother Chonglan is very lucky."
“Yes, maybe this town monument is really going to choose an owner. Brother Chonglan, our Wanbao Chamber of Commerce may suffer a big loss this time.” Although the old man from the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce said this, he had a smile on his face, as if he didn’t care at all.
Only Chonglan looked calm and didn't say much.
Instead, he would look at Lin Chen from time to time.
"The ghost power is obviously different from Chen's. They should not be the same. Could this ghost be the new ghost species?"
…
The platform was soon filled with a large number of evil spirits.
Some initial-stage ghost kings have also entered the scene. Their ghost domains are newly condensed and have not yet been completely finalized. They also want to seek some insights in the domain-suppressing monument.
Lin Chen and Monka also separated. As the head of the family, Monka naturally sat in the core position.
As for Lin Chen, he also took the admission ticket, handed it to the screening worker, and also sat in the core area.
Unlike other ghosts, Lin Chen did not show his ghost power.
In his eyes, such behavior was really unnecessary.
But the ghosts watching were all surprised.
After all, the ghosts who can sit in the core area all have extraordinary strength and background. Not only do they have to pay a large amount of sky-high ghost coins, but they also have to be sure of their ability and what they can get from the town monument.
But they soon discovered that the Infinite Ghost, Nightmare Ghost and other supreme evil gods in the core area had no objection to Lin Chen's joining. This situation made them even more surprised.
At this time, the old man from the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce flew into the air.
"This conference has officially begun."
