Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 583 - 66: Chen Lingyun’s Ambition
Above the battlefield, the Ghost King Xue Ren and the Ghost Mother Yin Rou had truly begun to fight with lethal intent.
The former was already casting spells at full strength, with deep purple Yin Lightning falling like rain and shattering the papermen one after another.

The latter was also pulling out all the stops, continuously throwing out yellow papers from her sleeve that instantly transformed into sword-wielding papermen, swiftly charging forward.
The Ghost King Xue Ren grew increasingly enraged; after all, his Yin Lightning might be less powerful than real lightning, but it was also highly depleting of mana, and couldn't compare at all with the opposing side's magic paper Divine Skills that sprang forth simply by folding.
If he couldn't capture and kill Yin Rou now, once his mana was exhausted, the situation would immediately reverse.
The Ghost Mother Yin Rou was also growing increasingly anxious, for although her papermen spell used very little mana, it required the use of special magic paper.
Preparing the magic paper wasn't difficult, but now that she was being relentlessly pursued by Xue Ren, where would she find the time to fetch more magic paper?
Once the magic paper was used up, she would be driven to a dead end!
In the midst of her thoughts, Yin Rou also gritted her teeth, determining that it was time to fight with all her might!
Both parties brought out their ultimate techniques, fighting from east to west and then to the south, toppling one after another shadowy building and grave, and wave after wave of evil ghosts perished in the process; eventually, almost no evil ghost dared to approach, no matter how much the Ghost King Xue Ren shouted and cursed, the spirits' morale had completely collapsed, and they fled far away.
However, the cultivators' spirits were greatly lifted, and they quickly followed the two ghosts, running to and fro across the battlefield, finally encountering Lin Ning and Xie Ruoxi.
They even had time for a reunion, with Zhao Yuanzhen and Xie Ruoxi getting together, and Lin Ning also grabbed Su Yunjin's hands, saying with emotion:
"We've finally met you... Where's the captain?"
Su Yunjin thought to herself that she would like to ask the same question, but aloud she said:
"After entering the Mysterious Realm, we haven't seen him either. But we did run into Ling Yun..."
As the struggle between the two ghosts was now clear, and there was no need for secrecy, Su Yunjin explained all of Chen Lingyun's schemes and plans to everyone present.
Li Zhaojiang and the others were ashamed, thinking to themselves: You dare use a deception surrender strategy without knowing anything about your enemy; if the Ghost King didn't trust the living and simply killed you then and there, what would you have done?
But now that the plans had succeeded and the enemies were killing each other, everyone held nothing but admiration for Chen Lingyun.
Lin Ning also explained the relationship between the Ghost King and the Ghost Mother to everyone.
"Just as I thought!" Zhao Yuanzhen said proudly, boasting that he had foreseen this, "That Ghost Mother Yin Rou, you can tell she's no good just by looking at her."
"Everyone saw that coming, okay," Li Zhaojiang retorted, "Their intent to stoke the flames was too obvious."
"Hmph, so-called Daoist couples are just like this," Zhao Yuanzhen continued, "in the face of achieving enlightenment and immortality, the affection between men and women is truly too fragile. Look at these two now, fighting to the death—who knows how loving they were before?"
The young ladies all frowned in secret, thinking that regardless of others, they were not like that
Li Zhaojiang and the others seemed to be deep in thought, but they weren't foolish enough to agree with Zhao Yuanzhen's statement; they just chuckled and said:
"Don't write everyone off because of one example. Just because these two are bad doesn't mean everyone is..."
"What are you all standing around for?" Yan Yu's voice suddenly came from a distance.
"Captain?" The girls nearly said in unison, "Where are you?"
"What do you mean 'where am I'?" Yan Yu said, "The enemy has been decided, hurry up and deal with the leftovers!"
Everyone was startled and hurried to the battlefield, only to discover that the Ghost King Xue Ren had already perished.
They hadn't noticed during their previous casual conversation, but Yan Yu had seen everything clearly. It turned out that Yin Rou realized she couldn't beat Xue Ren and suddenly knelt down to beg for mercy, weeping and wailing, saying something about how 'a day as husband and wife means an obligation of a hundred days' grace,' and how he should at least remember the good times she had treated him well, and to think of the loving moments they had shared together.
Xue Ren immediately became smug, humiliating her by saying, "You shrew, you actually met this fate. When we were together, where was this so-called 'loving moment'? Wasn't I always cautious and indulgent with you? Later, as soon as I showed the slightest impatience, you turned against me ...
Before he could finish speaking, Yin Rou suddenly lashed out, shooting a streak of white light from her sleeve that turned out to be a delicate paperman, with swords in both hands, shooting straight at Xue Ren's forehead.
Xue Ren, having been easily fooled by Chen Lingyun, was not very vigilant to begin with, and by the time he reacted, all he felt was a pain in his forehead, his consciousness was clear, but his soul could no longer control his body and collapsed to the ground.
Soul Dispersion Powder! This wretched woman actually used poison ...
The Ghost King perished then and there, his soul scattered to the winds. Yin Rou staggered to her feet, quickly turned to leave, only to see seven or eight people suddenly appear in front of her.
"Hehe," Li Zhaojiang said with a mischievous smile, "Where are you going, madam?"
"Captain, you sound a bit like a flower thief when you speak right now," Tao Xingyuan teased.
"Do I?" Li Zhaojiang promptly straightened up, after all, even if Xu Jin of the Zhenhai team wasn't considered, the ladies of the team were still around.
Yin Rou's face showed the color of despair, about to use her last trump card to save her life, but suddenly she saw Chen Lingyun float over, saying:
"Be careful, she has some desperate trump card in her hands~"
The Prison Banner swayed gently, suddenly releasing eight ghostly creatures, precisely the elite Ghost Generals that were once under the Ghost King Xue Ren. There were two green-faced, red-haired Yaksha Demons, three dark-skinned Demon Blade Ghosts, two Broken Head Ghosts with heavy hammers, and a massive bird with nine heads and eighteen wings, known as the "Ghost Chariot", a creature of the netherworld, notoriously bad-tempered and difficult to tame. If it weren't for Yan Yu using the realm's prohibitions to subdue it, Chen Lingyun would have never been able to control it.
