Chapter 172 National Destiny: The Evil Cultivator’s Playground 60

Chi Meng's eyes looked even colder under the night sky and the red moon. She looked at the terrified horror system without any hesitation. She knew that any mercy would be unnecessary for such an existence.

She slowly raised her hand, and a powerful energy gathered at her fingertips. This energy was different from any previous one, it carried a kind of all-consuming darkness, as if it was going to swallow up the entire playground.

"You have to bear the suffering you have brought upon yourself." Chi Meng's voice was cold as ice, without a trace of emotion.

With a flick of her finger, the powerful energy burst out instantly and rushed straight to the horror system. Under the impact of this energy, the horror system let out a shrill scream. Its body began to twist and deform, and finally turned into a ball of black smoke and dissipated in the night sky.

At the same time, the energy of the entire horror game world began to fluctuate violently. This energy was like Pandora's box being opened, rushing towards Chi Meng frantically. She felt this powerful energy pouring into her body, as if every cell was cheering and boiling.

She closed her eyes and began to devour the energy with all her strength. Her body gradually underwent subtle changes under the nourishment of this energy. Her black robe became darker, as if it could devour all light; under her silver mask, her deep eyes became brighter, flashing with a determined light.

Time seemed to lengthen at this moment. Fifty years passed quietly during Chi Meng's retreat. When she opened her eyes again, the entire horror game world had disappeared. In its place was a real world full of ghosts.

She felt the dense ghost energy around her, and a strong excitement surged in her heart. She knew that she had reached the level of Lianxu, and was only one step away from ascending. And her soul had also grown two or three times stronger in these fifty years of cultivation, becoming more solid and powerful.

She flashed into the real world, and her eyes instantly locked onto the place called "Red Moon Community". It used to be part of the horror game world, but now it has landed in the real world. She looked at the scenes that she could only see in the horror world, and she couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in her sight. It was the ghost landlord, who was standing at the gate of Hongyue Community at the moment, with blood still on the corner of his mouth. He had obviously just eaten a human, but when he saw Chi Meng, he was stunned for a moment.

"Sir!" The ghost landlord's voice was filled with a hint of surprise and awe. He quickly knelt down to greet Chi Meng, as if he had been waiting for this moment for the past fifty years.

Chi Meng looked at him and said calmly, "Get up."

Hearing this, the ghost landlord stood up quickly. He looked at Chi Meng with awe and admiration in his eyes. He knew that this gentleman was his savior and also his master.

"Sir, you are finally back!" The ghost landlord's voice was filled with excitement and emotion. "Ever since you asked us to return to Hongyuan Community to wait, it didn't take long for the whole horror world to start shaking. We also fell into a deep sleep. When we woke up again, we found that we had entered the real world. The real world has also undergone earth-shaking changes. The resurrection of ghost energy allows us ghosts to survive in the real world."

Chi Meng nodded to show that she understood. She looked at the ghost landlord and couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy. After all, in this strange world, only those of them who had experienced life and death together could truly understand each other.

"Have you been okay in these fifty years?" Chi Meng asked.

Hearing this, the ghost landlord's eyes flashed with a hint of complicated emotions: "We are all fine, sir. It's just...it's just that we all miss you very much."

Chi Meng smiled slightly, showing her understanding. She knew that although these ghosts were once her enemies or defeated by her, they had become her friends and partners in the past fifty years.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Chi Meng changed the subject, "I'll give you something." As she spoke, she stretched out a finger and gently tapped the ghost landlord's forehead.

Chi Meng's finger gently touched the ghost landlord's forehead, and a faint silver light flowed out from the fingertips and instantly sank into the ghost landlord's forehead. The ghost landlord only felt a cool feeling rushing into his mind.

Chi Meng's voice rang out in the ghost landlord's mind, "You should make good use of it. In addition, I may have to practice in seclusion for a long time. During this time, don't be too ostentatious, and don't kill all the humans."

When the ghost landlord heard this, he nodded and said yes, but he was very excited. He didn't expect that Master Chi Meng would be so generous to give him such a treasure.

"Don't worry, sir. I will follow your instructions." The ghost landlord replied respectfully, "I will work with other ghosts to protect this real world and prevent it from falling into chaos."

Chi Meng nodded with satisfaction, and her eyes swept to the ghost landlord again, and found that he had a smug smile on his face. She knew that although this ghost landlord was a bit slick at ordinary times, he could still understand her intentions at critical moments.

"Okay, I still have something to do." Chi Meng said, and was about to turn around and leave. However, at this moment, the ghost landlord suddenly blocked her way.

"My lord, wait a minute!" the ghost landlord said flatteringly, "My lord, you have been practicing in seclusion for so many years, it must be very hard, right? Do you want me to prepare some food and drinks for you? Or... or I can give you a massage?"

Chi Meng couldn't help but frown when she heard this. Although she knew that the ghost landlord usually liked to flatter, his performance at this moment was a bit too much. She looked at him coldly and said, "No need, just do your own thing."

After saying that, Chi Meng no longer paid attention to the ghost landlord, and turned around and broke through the void, disappearing on the spot. Only the ghost landlord was left standing there, with an awkward smile on his face.

The ghost landlord looked at the direction where Chi Meng disappeared, feeling very happy. He knew that although he had acted a little too much just now, Master Chi Meng was not angry. Moreover, he had received such a valuable system as a reward. This made him more certain that his position in Master Chi Meng's heart was extraordinary.

"Hehe, it seems that I have good vision!" The ghost landlord said to himself, "But then again, Master Chi Meng seems to have become even more powerful after his retreat this time! It's really exciting!"

With that, the ghost landlord could not wait to return to the Red Moon Community. He wanted to find other ghosts to show off his experience and the reward he had received.

Soon after, a piece of news spread in Hongyue Community: Master Chi Meng had come out of seclusion! And she also gave the ghost landlord. As soon as this news spread, it immediately caused a sensation among other ghosts. They gathered together to discuss the authenticity of this news and its meaning.

"Have you heard? Lady Chi Meng has come out of seclusion!" a ghost said excitedly, "And she also gave the ghost landlord a storage space as a reward!"

"Really? This is too amazing!" another ghost exclaimed, "The ghost landlord is so lucky! He actually got the appreciation of Master Chi Meng!"

"Yes, yes! It seems that we have to perform well in the future! Maybe one day we can get the reward from Lord Chi Meng!" The other ghosts echoed.

However, at this moment, the ghost landlord walked into their midst triumphantly. He boasted, "Haha! You are all talking about me, right? That's right! I am the lucky one who received the reward from Master Chi Meng!"

The ghosts gathered around him and asked, "Really? Tell us what's going on?"

The ghost landlord was even more proud when he saw this. He cleared his throat and said, "Hey! Don't ask me anymore! Anyway... Anyway, Master Chi Meng has a special appreciation for me!"

The ghosts all showed envious expressions when they heard this. However, at this moment, a discordant voice suddenly sounded: "Huh! What are you so proud of? It's nothing great!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the ghost couple and the ghost reporter coming over. They were obviously dissatisfied with the ghost landlord's boasting.

The ghost landlord did not show weakness when he saw this. He puffed out his chest and said, "Humph! What do you know? This is a reward given to me by Lord Chi Meng himself! Do you have it?"

The ghost couple and the ghost reporter were speechless when they heard this. They really had never received any reward from Master Chi Meng, so naturally they could not refute the ghost landlord's words. The heavy ghost, who was really angry, directly held the ghost landlord down and beat him up, which made him feel relieved.
