The elegant man sneered.
"A petty trick."
Then, he threw the cup in his hand, and flames ignited on the table.
Immediately after, the fireplace in the room erupted with surging flames, burning towards the man.
"What's going on? Nightmare, are you playing tricks? You're trying to burn me with fire?
Ridiculous! I, Baron Midnight, am a thousand-year-old vampire. How could I fear your mere phantom fire!"
The pale-faced man smiled elegantly, gently touching his sharp, hooked nose, allowing the flames to surge towards him.
A moment later,
"Oh my god, this fire burns so painfully! It's not sunlight!"
The pale-faced man frantically beat at the flames on his body, then crashed headfirst into the glass window.
*Thump!*
With a deafening bang, the pale-faced man was repelled. The once-fragile glass was now as thick as a wall.
"Still not burning?"
Fang Xiaoyu's gaze could see into the ninth level. Seeing the pale-faced man rolling in the flames yet still jumping around, he couldn't help but worry.
Wan Lei chuckled lightly.
"He's the ultimate monster of this ancient castle. What kind of vampire is he? He was personally created by a Ghost Immortal. He has many more rules within him, and they are quite formidable. He's not easy to modify."
"Then what should we do?"
"It's fine, he'll burn to death if we let him burn for a while longer."
"Then it's settled."
"However, I don't plan to burn him anymore. It's too tedious. I'm very annoyed right now and don't want to play with him anymore."
"Ah?"
Fang Xiaoyu widened his eyes, looking at Wan Lei, unsure of what he was going to do.
Wan Lei waved his hand casually, and a large hole instantly appeared in the wall beside him.
"Let's go. Let's get out."
Wan Lei's Thunder Guard shield enveloped everyone, carrying them out of the ancient castle through the large hole.
From the outside, looking through the ninth-level window, they could see flames raging within.
"He is a part of this ancient castle. Outside the castle, he is nothing."
"You want to force him out, don't you?"
Fang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up.
"No, I'm going to flip the table directly."
A cold smile flickered across Wan Lei's lips. He reached out and clenched the air with one hand. The threads entwining the ancient castle immediately tightened. Strangely, the castle didn't collapse but instead kept shrinking and shrinking.
The wails of Baron Midnight could be heard continuously from within the castle.
He was a thousand-year-old vampire, a formidable existence in this region.
He lived in an ancient castle, elegant like a gentleman with exquisite taste.
He matched wits with the Nightmare, and on this day, the moonlight informed him that the Nightmare had brought five outsiders to kill him.
Terrified, he didn't leave his castle. Instead, he subconsciously believed that his castle was the safest place.
He had set up numerous traps and arranged many monsters in the lower eight levels. He also placed the most magic and a considerable amount of blood in his own room on the ninth level to sustain himself.
He hoped to use these to resist the Nightmare.
But when he saw the five outsiders from the window, he felt the blood within him tremble with vitality.
How long had it been since he had seen a living person in this world!
A drop of living blood could stir his heart and make his blood boil. If he could capture all these people and keep them like a blood bank, why would he need to drink the blood of the dead anymore? Da Feng Novel Network
Moreover, two of these people had such surging blood, with every blood factor so active. They were like the finest wine in the world.
He must not turn them into vampires; he had to keep them and savor their fresh blood slowly.
The surging blood all over his body made him unable to control his emotions. He wished he could rush down immediately, slay the Nightmare, and capture those lovely living people into his castle, making them his everything.
But he eventually controlled himself.
Because the Nightmare was powerful, and he didn't know how strong those lovely living people were. He couldn't be so rash.
Yes, he had set up layers of mechanisms below. Even if these people didn't die, they would lose a layer of skin. By the time they reached the ninth level, he could easily take them down.
Yes, nothing could make the great Baron Midnight leave his castle territory.
On the first level, the Baron expected no surprises. It would be strange if these people couldn't get through.
But upon reaching the second level, the Baron found something was wrong.
Why had this person, who had so few lines at the beginning, suddenly become so awesome?
What were those threads? How could he directly kill the monsters on every level?
How could he directly attack the castle itself? The castle was indestructible!
How could he ignore the rules of this world? Who was he? Was he a god?
How could he directly overturn this place with a single sentence, "I don't like these rules"?
The Baron had no time to think further. The castle was no longer safe, and he had to escape, to leave this place.
But the entire castle was sealed off, and even...
uprooted.
The Baron felt the castle continuously being compressed. Countless rule energies and so forth were all being compressed together.
The Baron was immortal, but not completely immortal.
Sunlight could kill him. Besides that, rules that surpassed his immortal rules could also kill him.
There was no such thing as eternal immortality. Everything was just a matter of insufficient firepower.
Finally, the space and rules of this ancient castle were compressed to the extreme. The Baron faintly heard the person outside utter a word,
"Explode!"
*Boom!!!*
With a world-shattering roar, the ancient castle, along with the Baron inside, turned to dust.
Phase Three Mission, Complete.
Looking at what was happening below, Emperor Ghost wore a look of helplessness.
Before coming, he had vowed to Immortal Venerable Earth that he would set up complex rules to toy with Wan Lei and make him solve puzzles.
The result? The mystery of the amusement park was to escape through the moon, and Wan Lei bought a ticket and left.
The mystery of the cemetery was to burn all the Moon-Gazing Grass, but Wan Lei absorbed the spirits into his Destiny Diagram to kill them.
Baron Midnight in the ancient castle was even simpler. He had hinted so directly that as long as Wan Lei passed the first eight levels and reached the ninth, he could break Baron's immortality by shining his Bright Way Divine Light technique on the Baron.
The result? Wan Lei directly blew up the castle.
He had set up so many rules, but Wan Lei always found simpler and more brutal ways to solve them.
He always acted unpredictably.
Is this guy only good at mindless charging?
Thus, the great Emperor Ghost decided to slightly modify the rules of the fourth mission.
In any case, he couldn't let you clear the stages so easily!
There were only four missions in total. Next is the Naihe Bridge, and he had to increase the difficulty for you.
