"Earth Curse!"
"Wind Curse!"
Bai Ye formed two Taoist talismans simultaneously, then pushed them forward.
With a rumble!
An earth wall suddenly rose, but it appeared behind Dias, which was rather baffling.
A wall in front could block attacks, restrict movement, and obscure vision. What was the point of raising it behind Dias?
But at this moment...
The second talisman ignited, and a vast gust of wind unfurled before Dias.
Dias was forced to retreat backward, and then...
With a bang!
Dias's back slammed against the earth wall.
And at that very instant...
The rising whirlwind suddenly exploded, transforming into a multitude of wind blades that slashed forward incessantly.
"Ah... ah..."
Dias cried out in agony, his head thrown back.
As the wind blades struck him, they seemed to pierce his very soul, causing him immense pain. His body trembled uncontrollably, his flesh was continuously sliced open, and his blackened bones began to crack.
Bai Ye was quite satisfied with the effect. Taoist artifacts were an absolute killer for malevolent spirits. His trip to Mount Bagong had not been in vain.
However, Dias was a ferocious evil spirit. Even after being battered like this by Bai Ye, he did not fall. As the wind blades dissipated, he roared, brandishing his hands and flinging the chains bound to them at Bai Ye.
"Hexagonal Prism Shield!"
Bai Ye decisively sacrificed his Hexagonal Prism Shield. After a direct clash with a chain, the shield shattered instantly but blocked the attack.
However, the other chain was not so lucky.
Bai Ye could only quickly cross his arms in front of him.
Bang!
The chain struck Bai Ye's arms with a dull thud, sending him staggering backward. The immense force was difficult to resist, and Bai Ye's arms throbbed with pain.
But this was clearly not the worst of it. The impact of the chain was merely a physical injury. More terrifyingly, after striking Bai Ye, a vast expanse of black smoke emerged from the chain and rapidly swirled towards him, coiling around Bai Ye.
"You bastard, trying to possess me?" Bai Ye cursed. "Good thing I was prepared. Ning Shuang, Sword Control!"
In an instant, the Ning Shuang Sword transformed into a beam of light, trailing wisps of frost as it swept past Bai Ye.
The black smoke, just about to envelop Bai Ye, was ruthlessly sliced apart, falling into pieces.
Dias cried out in pain again, retreating backward.
The black smoke was a part of him, his so-called spectral form. When the smoke was severed, Dias would also be injured, and...
He was injured by the Ning Shuang Sword!
Although Bai Ye did not obtain the Ning Shuang Sword from Mount Bagong, it was still an artifact from the immortal cultivation world, and its efficacy against malevolent spirits was self-evident.
The moment the black smoke was cut, Dias felt a biting coldness. This chilling sensation felt as though his soul was frozen, and he wailed incessantly, retreating.
"It's time to end this!" Bai Ye produced Taoist talismans again. "See you off!"
Bai Ye pinched them together, and the stack of talismans unfurled like a fan.
"Fire Curse!"
Bai Ye tossed two talismans into the air. They instantly ignited and transformed into massive fireballs that hurtled towards Dias.
Upon seeing the flames, Dias instinctively recoiled, attempting to flee. But...
"Earth Curse!"
Bai Ye acted again. Accompanied by the burning talismans, an earth wall surged from the ground, sealing off Dias's retreat.
Following this, a series of mournful screams erupted!
Flames enveloped Dias, burning fiercely and eliciting his agonizing wails.
His fear of fire made the flames exceptionally effective, amplified by the talismans, causing Dias immense suffering.
Then...
Bai Ye held two talismans between his fingers and flicked them lightly. The two talismans reignited.
"Lightning Curse!"
Rumble, rumble!
Two bolts of lightning suddenly appeared above Dias and struck down with great force.
In that instant, countless currents exploded outwards, crackling with a "sizzling" sound as they darted erratically.
Dias's wails intensified, his body convulsing, emitting a burning odor.
The next moment, Dias roared.
"I will curse you, I will curse all of you! I will transform my soul into a curse, bear my wrath, you wait for me, just you wait..."
Amidst his ravings, Dias fell to his knees. His scorched flesh began to slough off like mud. His blackened skeletal frame emitted "crackling" sounds as tiny fissures spread, eventually shattering completely and being consumed by the flames, turning to ash.
"You found the murderer of the haunted house murder case and received the reward: Contaminated Cross x1"
"You have killed Dias the evil spirit and burned down the Death Amusement Park, receiving the reward: Spirit Entity x1, Shard of Godly Stone x10."
Dias was dead!
As the final obstacle of the Death Amusement Park, Dias's demise felt rather anticlimactic.
However, this was due to Bai Ye's thorough preparation. Otherwise, Dias would not have been so easy to deal with. His robust physique and the swinging chains were difficult to resist, and Dias's true form was an evil spirit capable of direct possession.
Yet, due to the T-virus's physical enhancements, Bai Ye's body was not significantly inferior to Dias's. And while spirit possession was the most terrifying aspect, Bai Ye's Taoist talismans and the Ning Shuang Sword could both counter Dias, rendering spirit possession, Dias's ultimate move, ineffective against Bai Ye.
But the matter was not over. The curse left behind by Dias's death would turn into flames and once again engulf the entire amusement park. Therefore, Bai Ye's immediate priority, even before checking his rewards, was...
To escape!
Picking up the Dragon's Roar from the ground, Bai Ye turned and fled.
With Dias's demise, the other evil spirits in the haunted house also vanished. Soon, Bai Ye burst out of the haunted house.
The moment he left the haunted house, Bai Ye was immediately hit by waves of heat.
All he could see was the entire amusement park engulfed in flames.
The giant sign of the haunted house had fallen, burning, and blocking the entrance.
Bai Ye quickly moved forward, kicked the sign aside, and swiftly rushed out.
If it were merely a matter of escaping a burning amusement park, it wouldn't be too difficult. The problem was...
He was not just facing rolling infernos.
